It should be of medium softness, well sharpened and slightly slip when applied, since a hard one can injure the eyelid, and also take into account the presence of allergens in the composition. Quality comes first, it’s better to have 2 good ones than 10 dubious ones. The most commonly used pencil is black.
Follow the direction from the bridge of the nose to the temple, smoothly drawing a line along the growth of the eyelashes, without making short, interrupted strokes. To make the line smooth and without flaws, provide good lighting, as well as support under the elbow, so that when drawing, your hand does not float in the air, especially if you want to make arrows.

It can safely be called one of the most difficult methods used for evening view makeup.

Shadows - pencil
Suitable for fairly thick arrows, as they are wet and hard in consistency. Using the applicator, we draw a line along the growth line, removing all excesses and shortcomings. As a rule, such shadows are quite light shades, so it is better to apply in several layers. But know that you won’t be able to line your entire eye with this product!

Loose, pressed, in a word, anything you have in your cosmetic bag will do.

Eyeliner, how to line your eyes correctly
First of all, we prepare the skin. We apply Foundation thick layer, apply a layer of powder or shadow on it natural shade, this will provide lasting effect, and only then proceed to the process of lining the eyes:
- Look at yourself in the mirror and imagine what kind of arrow you want in terms of width, length, color, etc.
- Squint your eyes a little and put a small dot in the place where, in your opinion, the arrow should end. Do this on both eyes at once for uniformity.
- Connect the point you marked to the very base of the eyelash row.
- Carefully draw a thin line of the arrow up to half of the eye; we can add volume to it at any time.
- It is recommended to draw a line from the inner corner to the very end of the outer corner, gradually expanding it. A beautiful, harmonious option.
- If this is still a drawn arrow, then lengthen its tail with a thin brush, adjusting the length.
- The lower eyelid is lined with a calmer color, both the inner and outer parts. By a gentle means, very thin so as not to create a panda effect. It is better to carry out additional machinations with shadows.
- To complete the look, apply several layers of mascara to your eyelashes.
Little ones
Only the outer parts of the upper and lower eyelids should be lined, mainly with light tones; golden and silver shades are ideal; this option will look advantageous double arrows with two parallels. Under no circumstances should you use black eyeliner; gray or light brown is better.
Round, large
Can be turned into an almond shape by using wide eyeliner from the base of the eye to the end, creating a large wing raised upward that can be lightly shaded to create a smoky, feline effect. Also, it is necessary to draw the internal contours from above and below, the whole process should be done in black, a dark color.
Narrow
A thick line that does not extend beyond the eye will help; it is better to use eyeliner with shadows so that the contour is not perfectly smooth, color palette any, draw a line, in this case you need to start from the middle of the eye.
Wide set
Close set
Having retreated a place, from the inner corner we draw an arrow along the growth line, it should be thin, slightly thickened at the very end, no more than half a centimeter further from the end of the eyelid, if desired, we draw the lower part, which will visually make the eyes larger.
Dropped corners
We outline the eye completely, from a very thin to a very wide line, make the end of the arrow upturned, and draw a little line from the inside of the eye to the base of the bridge of the nose. Thus, one of the corners becomes bent up, and the other down, creating symmetry.
Raised corners
Slanted eyes are beautiful in themselves, but you can emphasize them with eyeliner top part from bottom to top to the middle, and the bottom, on the contrary, from top to bottom to the middle.
Eyeliner helps women. Unfortunately, not many people know how to use it. The main thing in this matter is to follow several rules.
Previously, there was an eyeliner called “charcoal”, which was the only one at that time. Today there are several such means.
The most common are:
- pencil,
- liquid eyeliner,
- eyeliner marker,
- dry eyeliner,
- gel eyeliner.
All of them differ from each other not only in price, but also in quality and texture. The palette today is also extremely diverse; many shades and colors in the range even include neon colors.
Contour pencil
This tool for drawing arrows on the eyes is considered the simplest and most convenient to apply. It is easy to sharpen, and drawing a smooth thin line with it or correcting it is as easy as shelling pears. When choosing the color of your eyeliner pencil, you should also pay attention to its hardness. It is very important! A rod that is too hard is inconvenient and will make it difficult to draw an arrow, although it will turn out thin. A lead that is too soft will smear on the skin and it is unlikely that you can use it to carefully line your eyes with a thin line.
Liquid eyeliner
This eyeliner has many advantages compared to a pencil; it is brighter and more durable. Despite the fact that the choice of colored eyeliners today is huge, the most popular color remains black. When choosing liquid eyeliner, you should choose the right brush. Thin and soft ones are more difficult to use and require certain skills. And the brush, as hard as a felt-tip pen, although easy to use, dries out quickly. Therefore, you have to buy new eyeliner often.
Eyeliner-felt pen
This type of eyeliner is very easy to apply, the procedure can be compared to drawing with a felt-tip pen, and is suitable even for those who are just trying to master such skills. The color range of such eyeliners is also very wide, all that remains is to decide on the choice.
Dry eyeliner
Dry eyeliner, whose second name is cake eyeliner, requires considerable skill and is a favorite tool professional makeup artists. This eyeliner is applied with a special, slightly moistened brush.
Gel eyeliner
An analogue of dry eyeliner is gel, made of water-permeable material, it is presented in more bright colors, but can be imprinted on the eyelid, as it has rich pigmentation. If it dries well, it will stay on throughout the day and will not smear or run.
How to apply eyeliner?
An important rule when applying all these products is good lighting, and about the application technique cosmetic products worth mentioning separately.
Applying liquid eyeliner
This eyeliner cannot be shaded, which means that the line must be drawn instantly and, most importantly, correctly. To prevent your hand from shaking during such a difficult “operation”, it is important to keep your elbow on a hard, flat surface and in no case suspended. Be sure to blot the brush to get rid of excess liquid, which will only interfere with application.
"Hatch" upper eyelid follows from the inside of the eye to the outside. At first the line should be thin, and then it needs to be thickened.
An important condition when applying liquid eyeliner is not to stretch the skin of the eyelid, as the end result will be an accordion.
You should not open your eyes until the eyeliner has dried - the drawn outline may crack or crumble. The repeated line applied to the “workpiece” should be thinner and weaker. If the first time the arrow turns out to be uneven, you need to quickly correct the “mistake” by removing makeup.
You should not apply eyeliner to the mucous membrane of the eye, as cosmetics stuck in the corner of the eye look unsightly. It is better to highlight the lower eyelid with a pencil, highlighting the line of eyelash growth.
Applying eyeliner-felt pen
Before applying the contour with such eyeliner, it is better to mark a barely noticeable line with a pencil. And after that, fix the result with a felt-tip eyeliner. So, you will definitely get a clear arrow, and over time, skills will eliminate the need to make “sketches”.
Applying dry eyeliner
To apply dry eyeliner, you need to select a suitable and comfortable brush (usually beveled or pointed), which is moistened with water and shaded the eyeliner with it. This eyeliner can create various effects, although not everyone can do this. Generally, practice and patience are required.
Color selection
Having decided on the type of eyeliner, you should approach the choice of color wisely. Some people use their imagination, while others follow the recommendations of makeup artists - choosing a tone in accordance with clothing, eye color, skin or hair.
Colored eyeliners are more appropriate in summer time or when creating an extraordinary image. Brown-eyed girls with dark skin you can opt for light green, orange and turquoise colors.
Gray, blue or emerald are an excellent choice for brown-eyed and fair-skinned people. Brown eyes With green tint dark green, olive or copper tones are emphasized. For green-eyed beauties, purple or purple eyeliner is suitable. burgundy colors. Gray looks good on the eyes silver and blue eyeliner, and brown, black and beige-golden will highlight blue eyes well.
And another extremely important point is the expiration date. We must not forget about this, otherwise allergic reactions are possible.
Eyeliner works wonders
Eyeliner can transform any woman's face and significantly change her overall look. For example, small eyes can be visually expanded. To do this, just draw a line with eyeliner, starting from the center of the upper eyelid, and at the end the arrow needs to be slightly raised.
For those wishing to visually reduce big eyes you can draw a line like upper eyelid, and along the bottom.
A thicker arrow in the middle of the upper eyelid will make it look more round.
The main thing is not to overdo it with eyeliner, otherwise you will get the exact opposite effect. IN this issue the most important thing is to be careful and have a sense of proportion, then success in eye makeup is guaranteed.
Try it, with experience you will get amazing arrows that will not allow your eyes to go unnoticed.
