Since learning how to properly apply my make up, I have become obsessed with eyeliner and have not worn makeup without toping off my eyelid with that little black line.
Even though eye liner makes its appearances in and out of make up trends it is a constant staple in my make up bag. I have tried many different coals over the years and have yet to find one that I refuse to cheat on. The most important aspects of a good eyeliner include ease of application and staying in place once applied. It is not unusual for me to have a black line on top of my lid slightly underneath my brow at the end of the day.
However, I have found ONE that has made the cut and I actually repurchased it after running out. It is a pencil liner by Lancome in black color. I have attempted liquid liner many times, but it is terribly hard to apply and finally realized the trick is to apply your normal pencil liner first, and they trace over it with liquid liner to give a more dramatic look.
I always apply before mascara and if you plan to incorporate false lashes into your look, be sure to buy dark eyelash glue. At this point in my life I am not sure how I would feel about not wearing eyeliner and I have no intention of finding out. Your make up is just not complete without that little black line and every southern girl knows it! Here is a tip – if you are new to eyeliner and want to go with a lighter look, trying using brown, or purple liner if you have hazel eyes to give them a pop! Or, if you are looking for a really intense look this is my favorite liner to give me an ultra drama!
