If you wish to give your eyes that alluring look, use these simple tips. Just like with all makeup, less is more even with your best eyeliner but you can get varied looks. The eyeliner should be seen conspicuously; it should be as close to your eyelashes to create a natural but pretty look. Some simple tricks that will help you to this effect are as follows.

When you are drawing a line, never start it from the corner of your eyes. Try beginning the line from the midpoint. Particularly, don’t forget this trick when applying eyeliner on the upper lids to help you get more natural and gorgeous effect.

You can also try blending the line with your lashes. Just hold the upper lid tight and start making the line in the opposite direction. Go for strokes that are short and stop when you are done with two thirds of the eyes. If drama is more your style, draw the outer lines broader. Eyeliner application becomes convenient when you use the eyeliner on naked lashes prior to using other products like eye shadow or mascara.

You can also use your eyeliner with some eye shadow. This will stop the eyeliner from wearing off and smudging and also creates for you a more natural look. You can put on the eye shadow straight over the liner with the help of an eye shadow applicator.

Liners that are too thick tend to give you too unnatural a look so unless you have a dark colour, don’t use a dark eyeliners. Instead, choose ones that are near the natural shade of your lashes. A shade that is brighter than that of kohl always looks best.

An eyeliner can be perfectly used to get the sultry smoky look. Draw some lines near your eyelashes and then smudge them with some cotton. Remember, if you want this look, your strokes must be on the inner lid.

Whatever the look you are trying to flaunt, remember to use a clean and soft brush. Once opened, an eyeliner stays good for around 6 months, after which it should be discarded; otherwise, it will cause an infection due to excessive usage. If the eyeliner irritates your eyes, the best thing to do is to go for another eyeliner.
