Eyeliners are meant to define the eyes so they should do just that, not being the focal point of your makeup. Eyeliners come in various colors and forms liquid, pencil etc. Keep the eyeliner natural. Pencils are available in various colors (for the best look stick to black or brown) and can be sharpened to a fine line. For a smudged effect use a sponge tip shadow applicator or an eye shadow brush. When your pencils are too soft refrigerate them. When they soften too hard keeping their fingers.
To line the eye, starting with the lower lid, just below the lashes. When you are finished always smudge the line with your sponge. Stay as close to lash line as possible. On the upper lid, draw a line form the inner corner towards the outer corner, thickening the line toward the outside corner. After age 40 maintain the line between the lashes.
Mascara and the creation of stunning eyelashes:
Mascara frames your eyes and can make your face come alive. Mascara slightly accentuates the eye while thickening and darkening the lashes, is the final touch for the eyes. There are several types to choose from, thickening, and waterproof to fade proof. Waterproof will need a special remover and stain proof will wash off easily. Not a good idea to wear waterproof mascara for extended periods of time because they tend to dry the lashes.
Select a shade of mascara that complements your coloring. Dark shades over his eyes with brown lashes will darken and will be tough. Stay away from blues and other colors since they will ruin your look.
Lashes that are hard to curl may need the help of a curler. Curl your eyelashes before applying mascara - hold for ten to twenty seconds.
To apply mascara look straight into your mirror with your chin slightly raised so you can see your eyelashes. Insert the wand only once and twist, not pump. Pumping can break the brush bristles and distribute the mascara unevenly and dry the mascara faster. Start by rolling the wand from root to tip with an upward motion. Reinsert the brush and apply again. If your eyelashes are thick and long that may clunk together. If this happens let them dry and then separate the angle of an eyebrow brush.
