Applying liquid eyeliner flawlessly in one shot is no easy feat. All you need is a really steady hand, and one wrong move spells disaster. Pretty scary, right? However, with a little bit of practice and steady hands, you can master the art of applying a perfect eyeliner! While wearing liquid eyeliner can be intimidating, the sharp, bold finish that this type of liner gives is just superb. If you’ve never got your hands on a liquid eyeliner before, now is the time and here’s your guide. Read on!
Open Your Eyes
It's instinctual to close your eye while applying eye shadow and eyeliner to the lid. But when you close your eyes, you lose the ability to draw a straight line.
Apply Eyeshadow Primer As A First Step
How can you get the best results, if your first step is wrong? Using an eyeshadow primer before applying liquid eyeliner can stop the inky colour from transferring all over your lids. Also, it will help liner to dry a little faster than on a naked eyelid, which can often be naturally greasy.
Don’t Hold Your Liner Brush Straight
Before you begin with the process, shake up your eyeliner tube well to make the liquid smooth. Now, if you want to have a smooth liner, hold your brush flat, not straight. Holding brush straight makes your liner look messy.
Start In The Middle
If you are a newbie, you may probably think that applying eyeliner is same as kajal, wherein you start from the inner corner to outer corners. But hate to break it to you folks, it is not the case.
Get as close to the lash line as possible and start in the middle while you drag to the outer corners. Use the leftover product to line the inner corners.
Create Wings
The last step is to create wings on both sides. To nail winged eyeliner, follow your lash line, going upwards to create a wing. Now fill in the winged outline you just created until all the skin between the lines is neatly hidden.
Add Some Lashes
Give a final touch to your makeup by using fake lashes or applying a few coats of mascara to your lashes.
