How To: applying eyeliner

post #1 of 29
Thread Starter 
So, this is my 1st tutorial ever here and I hope it will be of some use to you guys.
Here is a short and simple tutorial on how to apply gel/liquid eyeliner the easiest way.

You'll need:
- pencil eyeliner
- gel/liquid eyeliner
- eyeliner brush if you're using gel eyeliner

I used:
- BeYu purple pencil eyeliner
- ecotools eyeliner brush
- gel liner in Venomous shade

1. this is how your eye should look like while you apply eyeliner; with your finger gently pull the outer side of your eye for easier application




2. use your pencil eyeliner to apply a line just like on the photo (it will help you to apply your eyeliner above it)






3.
above (2) apply an eyeliner line




4. in the outer part of your eye, make a small line like on this photo, it’s there to show you where will your peak end






5. and simply connect those two lines






6. color the empty area






7. depending on your preferences, make the line thicker and longer



This is how I prefer my line to look like:



Hope this was helpful!

Re: How To: applying eyeliner

beautiful application! The purple liner is gorgeous ~~ how long does it take you to draw with pencil and then with the gel? I am teaching some young ladies and this is the method I use for them, but they all complained it took too long!

Since I've been using gel liners for a very long time I don't use pencil eyeliner before applying gel liner because I don't need to. But, If I did so, it wouldn't take me long because it just depends on how good you are at applying eyeliner. It's just practice.

It's probably taking them too long because they still don't have the right moves in their hand, but it comes with time.

Hi! I'm glad it helped you!
About the lower lash line, don't know if I can really help you there. If you're sensitive perhaps try avoiding waterline and apply your liner only to bottom lash line and perhaps you should start with using only eye shadows so your eye gets used to having something applied there.

I don't know if your eyes are sensitive in general or is it so when it comes to lower lash line but i it's the 2nd thing, try using eyeshadows at first, until you get used to this. I really hope that would help.

You're welcome and I'm happy you started using eyeliner! It's an awesome product and it would be a shame not using it

Re: How To: applying eyeliner

Thanks for your tutorial! It's clear how to do it

I'm only wondering.. I'm in love with those Superslick Liquid Eyeliners and I manage to get a pretty decent line, only I get the eyeliner over my lashes.. It makes them stick together and I can remove the liner from my lashes, but I was wondering if you know something on how not to get the liner on my lashes in the first place?

The only reason I don't like liquid eyeliners is the thing you mentioned - they get over lashes and make them thick, no matter how I tried.

That's why I prefer gel liners and a angle brush - it's cleaner and easier application too.

Then you probably need to get used to applying eyeliner. Just don't give up on that!
