How Do You Line Your Eyes? - Makeup and Beauty Blog

Wearing Clarins' Crayon Khôl Middle Pencil in Intense Black ($25) on my lash and water lines, and contemplating eyeliner…

Applying eyeliner seems like ane of those vastly personal things, ya know? Like fragrances, or ownership skinny jeans. I have gal pals who always apply from the same direction, some who depict dots they and then smudge, buddies who exercise both eyes at the same time… There are merely and so many different ways to go about it.

I was drawing my liner this forenoon with a new trounce, Clarins' splendidly smooth and dark Crayon Khôl Centre Pencil in Intense Black ($25) when I started thinking well-nigh all the unlike ways we line our eyes.

I unremarkably apply pencil liner ane eye at a time following this approach…

1. Bottom h2o line, working from the outside (the side closer to me ear) in toward my olfactory organ
2. Superlative water line, working from ear-side to nose
3. Roots of my upper lashes (gotta get between the base of those hairs!)
4. Upper lash line, once more from ear to nose
5. Lower lash line, yep, from ear to nose
6. And so I'll smudge when I want/feel I need to

Information technology depends a footling on the formula. I have a slightly different routine for liquid, gel and foam liners, but generally the steps are the same, except for how I handle my upper lash lines. I'll line then from the opposite direction, working from the inside out (from nose side to ear). I don't know why, but for some reason that's simply easier for me with liquid and gel liners.

How about you? How do you line your eyes? Do you have a time-tested technique, and what products have you been loving lately?

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
