Donning liquid
eyeliner is one of the most challenging makeup skills to learn and master. You
navigate through style magazines, fashion portals admiring beauty gurus and
celebs parading with their, to the perfection cat-eye winged eyeliners and
wonder: How the hell did they pull that off? Magic wand! Magic Spell!
People to earth!
There are few core liquid eyeliner pointers that differentiate between a
perfect eyeliner job and an amateur one. Let’s take a glance at some of the
easy-queasy tips on how to master the perfect liquid eyeliner flick like a pro.
Right Applicator

Just like you
don’t bother to use the sleazy make up brush that joins your blush compact,
don’t feel compelled to use the felt tip applicator that comes with your liquid
eyeliner. In a nutshell, if you’re comfortable with your felt tip and have been
using it for a long time, then continue. If not, switch for a separate tool.
Be Symmetrical

Sounds easy, but
difficult to achieve! No worries, there’s a symmetry technique anyone can
accomplish. Make sure you keep your eye open, not wide open, just open and
relaxed. Many women make the slipup of closing one eye while application, but
it is preferred not do it, only if you are not a fan of bumpy, smudgy asymmetrical
eyeliner.
With your both
eye open, put your eyeliner at a 45degree angle, extending it from your bottom
lash line. Once you’ve painted your angle, now draw a line across the lid from
the inner corner out, uniting to the tip of the angle. Then fill in the middle
of the outline. With each application you’ll master perfect symmetrical winged
eyeliner.
No Tugging

This is one of
the most done mistakes when applying liquid eyeliner. When you stretch your
eyelid during application it causes the skin to rebound to its original state
when you let it go taking an ounce of liner with it. The outcome, bumpiness,
smudges and even eyeliner. What you should actually be doing is to leave your
eyes open and relaxed. Anchor your elbows against the mirror so you can swivel
with it as the applicator sweeps over lid. This allows the application tool to
master its job.
Know your Eye shape

Take a note, the
classic cat eye eyeliner, isn’t classy on every eye shape. Just like our
figure, eye lids also comes in all shapes and sizes – round, almond, monolid
and hooded. The classic design looks flattering on almond and rounded eyes,
since it gives enough area to work on. On the other hand it’ll get smudgy on
those with hooded eyes or monolids. Try a tight sweep across your top lashes
with a tiny wing pointed upwards at the outer corner.
Patience

Be very calm and
patience when you’re doing your eye job, that’s the easiest way to pull off
that liquid liner game. Set aside good 5-10 minutes to make it right. Hurrying
up will only result in a complete mess. So know your eye shape, study its
contours thoroughly and paint it to perfection.
