How do u apply eye liner?

Ok grab your eyeliner pencil and head to a mirror!!! Raise your eyebrows and lover your lids about halfway, then tilt your head upward. Starting from the inner corner, work your way to the end using dashes (doing a straight line will cause you to do it crooked and dashes are easier to correct). Take your finger and blend the dashes together and repeat with other eye. Use a damp tissue to remove mistakes. Don't press too hard and NEVER do it on a schoolbus!

How do u apply eye liner?
Certainly not going down the road in a car!!!
if this is your first time use a pencil! i advise you always use a mirror when doing this!put it as lcose to your lashline as possible and use dashes. rest your hand on your cheek for steadiness and balance. if you have lighter skin and eyes, use brown eyeliner(same with mascara). ony use black if you want a smoky look or you have a dark complexion and darker eyes. ALWAYS APPLY EYELINER BEFORE MASCARA!!





BOTTOM LID:


looking up while you do it helps(for me it does, if not pull gently on the skin under your eyes. try to apply it as close to the lash line as possible. also never do it too heavily. nver do it on the skin below or else you will look absolutely freaky and gothic. do dashes and then connect them.





TOP LID:


i think its really hard to do the top lid. hold down your top lid by holding it on the outside and inside. this you do all the way. use dahses and connect them together.
its hard to explain id have to show u
by look in your eyes
If you are new at this, start with a pencil. Have a tissue ready to correct mistakes.





Using a liquid eyeliner takes a steady hand and a lot of practice.
From the cover girl website....We suggest you apply your eyeliner using little, short strokes. This will give you more control and help you get the liner close to the base of your lashes. For a bold look, rim the entire eye with liner from corner to corner just above and below the lashes - never inside the eye. For a soft look, line the upper lid from the center out and just the very outer corner of the lower lid.
It's easy, but hard to explain.....be careful not to poke ur eye out!!! lol
by putting it as close to your lash line as possible and going straight across, outwards.
Do not apply all the way to the corners! Esp. if eyes are close together
PULL THE LOOSE SKIN ON UR EYES GENTLY DOWN %26amp; APPLY THE EYE LINER ((IN)) THE EYELID ((OUTLINE)) FOR THE BEST EFFECT
1. Choose an eyeliner appropriate for your eye color. Brown, navy and charcoal accent light eyes well, while brown and plum shades flatter brown eyes. Make sure your liner complements the color of your shadow.





2. Consider the type of look you're after. Pencil eyeliner gives your eyes soft definition, while liquid versions offer precision and drama. You can also moisten dark eye shadow and apply it with a small, flat brush.





3. Prepare a cake liner or a dark eye shadow by applying a small amount of water to your brush. Or, if you're using a pencil eyeliner, ensure that you've sharpened the pencil adequately.





4. Move the wet brush gently through your cake liner or dark shadow. Hold the brush or pencil as you would hold a pen.





5. Tilt your head back slightly and bring your eyes to a half-open state. This creates a good angle for application, while allowing you to see what you're doing.





6. Draw a line across the upper lid just above the lashes, from the inside corner to the outside corner of the eye. If you're using liquid liner, allow it to dry before opening your eyes all the way, or the color may transfer into the crease of your eye.





7. If you used a brush or a pencil, soften the look by gently smudging the line with your brush, a cotton swab or your finger.





8. Line the lower lids. Moving from the outside edge inward, draw a line on the outer two-thirds of the lid or more, depending on the look you're going for. Your line should be slightly thicker at the outside corner, becoming thinner as it moves in toward your nose. Using your brush or pencil, lightly stroke the area. If using a liquid liner, apply it in one smooth stroke. Apply less color so your eyes don't appear raccoonlike.








Tips:


You may find eyeliner, particularly the liquid version, difficult and messy the first few times. Practice and have patience.





Wash brushes regularly with makeup remover or a mild gel shampoo.
