Eyeliner Techniques

Liquids, pots, pencils. How's a girl to choose? No matter the look you love, lined eyes are essential. Whether you like a lightly lined eye for a natural look or you like to go for the gusto with a more dramatic look, eyeliner makes eyes "pop" and gets you noticed.

It also makes the whites of the eyes look whiter and draws other's eyes to your eyes and who doesn't like that! But with so many different types of liner you have to find the one that works best for you. Pencil what most of us used to learn how to apply eyeliner with. Pencil liner is easy to use they come in a variety of colors, they can give you a smooth line and they can be easily smudged for a smoky look. (to smudge use a sponge tipped applicator).

Liquids can give you a very dramatic look and provides exact precision. Urban Decay liquid liner is a good example of a liquid liner. It goes on wet, dries shiny and you can smudge it to get a softer look. Pots, eyeliner can be worn straight or smudged and it won't budge such as Shiseido, The Makeup Accentuating Cream Eyeliner. This is a pot of creamy eyeliner that makes getting the smoky eye a piece of cake! Water, sweat and rubbing are no match for this eyeliner.

I personally use Sephora brand black eyeshadow for my eyeliner. I use a smudging brush and apply it to upper and lower lash line. I love this because it is easy to control how much drama I want to create with my liner. Let me know your favorite eyeliner and application techniques.
