Put On Eyeliner In 2009


Maybe you are beginning to want to experiment with make up and need to learn how to put on eyeliner. The read on, as this article will go into some detail about how to put on eyeliner. Learning how to put on eyeliner can be a tricky thing to do, yet the more you put eyeliner, the easier it will be to put it on each time you feel in the mood to put on eyeliner.

When learning to put on eyeliner you need to consider the type of eyeliner you want to put on. At this time, there are 2 main types of eyeliner, liquid and pencil. There are pros and cons of both types of eyeliners, obviously there is no pencil to sharpen with liquid eyeliner but the pencil gives you more control where as the brush sometimes has a mind of its own and tends to paint where it wants. The brush may become clogged but the pencil will become blunt or can break easily.

When choosing what type of eyeliner we are going to use we have to weigh this up against our experience of putting on eyeliner. A beginner would use a pencil because of their unsteady hand and the more experienced person would probably prefer the liquid because they will be able to put their eyeliner on in one glide of the brush. For the beginners, a good tip when putting on eyeliner would be to make sure the tip of the pencil is blunt. After the pencil has been sharpened, gently use the pencil to write your name a couple times. Do this every time the pencil has been sharpened again. It can become annoying when you have to repeatedly sharpen the pencil when you want to put on eyeliner, but if your have an unsteady hand then a pencil is what you should be using.

Liquid liner, on the other hand, requires a steady hand. The beauty of liquid liner is it glides on. But in saying this it is not for the impatient person. A good thing about liquid liner is once you have the hang of putting it on its fast which a good thing is if you are not the type of person to be mucking around with eye makeup an having to put it on.

If we now start on how to put on eyeliner you want to start from the middle of the eye and put it on working outwards on the top and bottom of the eye. Try to see an invisible line right through your lower lashes this will help guide you when you are first learning how to put on eyeliner. You can smudge your eyeliner at the outer corners of the eyes. This gives the eyes a soft smoky look and is quite dramatic if done well. Don't smudge the whole line off, just the outer corners of the eyes. Some people like to line the whole eye, to do this you want to start your line from the corner of your inner eye and line around the whole eye, taking your line from the inner eye to the outside corner of the eye along the top and the bottom.

To get the look that is right for you, you will have to experiment with the eyeliner. You could watch how other women are wearing their eyeliner and try that look for yourself. Try different colors and play around with the shape of your eyes a bit. Don't be afraid to get away from the black. Remember to use eyeliner (liquid or pencil) sparingly, in particular, the black eyeliner. The point of eyeliner is to show the shape of the eye and it is the shape of the eye that can be manipulated by the way the eyeliner is applied.
