- Apply liquid liner to top lids only. Use a pencil for the bottom.
- Always work in little sweeps. this makes it much easier to control the line.
- Wipe excess onto a piece of foil or plastic. I use the top of my mineral makeup powder :0 This not only keeps bacteria out of your liner bottle but also creates the perfect palate to apply more product to the brush.
- Apply eyeshadow first. If you apply shadow after eyeliner, it can cover your newly drawn line.
- Practice. Practice. Practice. The art of applying liquid liner takes time and a steady hand. Don't give up after one try. The more you practice applying liquid eyeliner, the better you'll get at it.
Eyeliner Tips: Liquid eyeliner tips, applying liquid liner effortlessly
Applying liquid eyeliner takes skill and a steady hand. But if you can master the application process, your end result will be a tailored, classic makeup look that works for both day and night eye makeup. Liquid eyeliner defines the shape of an eye, lasts longer than pencil liner and can also change the appearance and size of your eyes. The application of liquid eyeliner can be quite tricky. But with practice and these tips below, you can master applying liquid eyeliner in no time.
Liquid eyeliner Application: How to apply Liquid eyeliner perfectly
What you'll need:
- Liquid liner
- Piece of foil or plastic. This is what you'll wipe excess on. I find after removing the brush from the tube, you'll have enough liner on the plastic or foil to re-dip brush in. Enough for both eyes.
- Thin Eyeliner brush if not provided in the bottle
You should apply liquid liner after eyeshadow and before mascara. Start by removing the liner brush from tube and removing excess liner. Swipe the brush on the plastic.
Close your eye and use your finger tip to gently pull eyelid taught. Start at the middle of the eye. Sweep the brush, as close as possible, along the lash line towards the outer corner. Don't try to cover the eyelid in one movement. It's easier to break it down into little sweeps. If more product is needed, dip the brush into the liquid eyeliner on the plastic. I find when creating a cat eye, or extending the liquid liner past the outer corner of the eye, it's easiest to do this part last. So, start by applying the liquid eyeliner to the middle of the lash line, working outwards to the corner, then do inner corner of eye and finish with the extended outer corner part last.
The Perfect Cat Eye Eye makeup: How to create the Cat Eye look with Liquid eyeliner.
Liquid eyeliner was made for the cat eye makeup application. Simply sweep the brush in small movements, adding more liner to brush as needed, across the lash line. Take the tip of the brush and ever so slightly extend it out past the lash line and eyelid. You can sweep the line upwards or straight out. Fill in the line to create a > shape at the end of the eye. If you mess up, simply take a q-tip and twist it on the liner you want to remove and start again.
What to look for in a Liquid Liner: Tips to buying the best liquid eyeliner
Staying power and brush: the most important qualities of liquid eyeliner. Most liquid liners stay for hours and hours. However, after trying countless over the years, I find there are a few brands that actually peel off after a few hours. If your new liquid eyeliner is doing this, throw it away and find a new one as this is not the norm!
The liquid eyeliner brush is crucial to the right application. A thin liner brush is a must. Believe it or not, Wet n wild makes the best liquid eyeliner I have ever used. And at 3.99 you can't go wrong! It stays all day, even 12 hours later. It doesn't peel and the brush is perfect. You can find it at rite aid or walmart.
