How To Create The Perfect Eyeliner
Reading time: 1 minute
Creating the perfect eyeliner look is a challenge for many women…
I often hear about women spending hours in front of the mirror trying to draw a precise eyeliner line, only to end up with results far from what they hoped for…
Even professional makeup artists sometimes make mistakes when applying eyeliner on clients, resulting in asymmetrical lines or smudging.
This happens to most women, especially those with mature skin, as it requires special attention around the eye area…
What all women who struggle to apply eyeliner the way they want need to know is that it’s not their fault…
Eyeliner is one of the most challenging makeup techniques, and it requires specific methods to master… In the next few minutes, I’ll reveal how, but before that, you need to know…
Common Mistakes When Applying Eyeliner
One of the biggest mistakes is applying eyeliner without properly preparing the skin and eyelid…
The eyelid is a very delicate area that requires special attention, particularly if the skin is looser.
When you skip eyelid preparation, the eyeliner simply can’t “work” with the skin properly…
The result is smudged lines that don’t hold their shape or sink into fine lines.
Then there’s the selection of wrong products, which almost always leads to disaster…
Because every eye is different, what looks great on one person might not work for another…
And when we add using the wrong brush to this mix, chaos ensues…
The reason is that if you use too large a brush, it’s almost impossible to apply eyeliner precisely, while an extremely thin brush requires much more time to draw precise eyeliner.
And to top it all off, we have improper technique.
Many women press too hard with the brush when applying eyeliner, creating thick lines, while others draw in interrupted strokes, causing the eyeliner to smudge…
And some use aids like tape, not knowing that perfect eyeliner is always drawn freehand – because if it were that easy to draw eyeliner using tape, every woman would be able to do it…
All these mistakes cause the eyeliner to smudge, create spots, or look unattractive, which affects the entire makeup look because…
Poorly Applied Eyeliner Ruins the Entire Makeup Look
When we make mistakes while drawing eyeliner, we create asymmetrical-looking eyes that, instead of enhancing our eyes, make us look tired or older…
And if the eyeliner smudges, it turns into every woman’s worst nightmare, creating frustration and negative feelings, especially when we’re at work, school, or an important meeting…
And that’s why I’ll show you below…
How to Apply the Perfect Eyeliner
First, you need to understand that eyeliner isn’t a universal technique – it requires adaptation because every eye is different and needs a different approach…
Preparation is key for perfect eyeliner, from choosing the right products for both the eyeliner and setting the eyelid, to selecting appropriate brushes…
And finally, practice.
The more you practice applying eyeliner on yourself, friends, or clients, the better you’ll become.
To achieve this, you need to experiment with different techniques…
…and if possible, get suggestions from an experienced mentor, which will significantly reduce the time needed to master eyeliner application.
One way you can do this is through our two courses: Blended Eyeliner with Waterproof Makeup and Double Graphic Eyeliner.
In these courses, you’ll learn in a practical way how to draw perfect eyeliner that you’re satisfied with.
