EYELINER IDEA #1: SULTRY SMOKY EYE
We couldn’t do an eyeliner roundup without mentioning the smoky eye. A true classic, this effortlessly chic makeup look can take your look from day to night with ease. To start, you’ll want to apply a thin layer of eye primer to keep your makeup in place. Then line your upper and lower lash lines with the Pencil Eyeliner . Before it sets, reach for a pencil eyeshadow brush dipped in eyeshadow and smoke out your liner. Don’t get too precious with it; this look can be a bit messy! Coat your eyelashes with a few swipes of the Mascara for lifted and curled lashes. Voila!
EYELINER IDEA #2: CLASSIC CAT EYE
Is there any eyeliner style more classic than the black cat eye? It’s an all-time favorite for a reason—it’s gorgeous! Equal parts dramatic, romantic, and always on-trend, a classic black cat eye is well-suited for just about any occasion, whether day or night. To achieve the perfect cat eye, don’t forget to apply primer beforehand and start your cat eye with the wing first. And if those two tips aren’t enough to spark confidence in your cat eye skills, here are 7 Hacks for the Perfect Cat Eye.
EYELINER IDEA #3: SMUDGED EYELINER
If the thought of applying a dramatic smoky eye is intimidating, try the smudging technique instead. Smudged black eyeliner is like the punk-rock cousin of the traditional smoky eye, and you can smudge a little or a lot, depending on your mood.
EYELINER IDEA #4: TIGHTLINING
Tightlining, also known as invisible eyeliner, is an eye makeup technique that involves applying eyeliner onto your upper waterline to create the appearance of thicker, more defined lashes. The idea behind tightlining is to make it look as if you haven’t even applied eyeliner at all—yet still make people wonder how your eyes and lashes appear so naturally defined and stunning. Since this technique involves getting really close to your eyes, it’s best to make sure you’re doing it the right way.
EYELINER IDEA #5: TEAL EYELINER
In case you missed it, teal eye makeup is officially on-trend. Look around on social media and in magazines, and you’ll quickly see just how popular teal eye makeup is. One of the best ways to try out this trendy hue is with a bold, bright teal eyeliner.
EYELINER IDEA #6: WINGED EYELINER
This classic eyeliner look is as versatile as it is stunning; Wear it to work, brunch, a night out, or anything in between. Of course, just because this liner look is a true classic doesn’t mean it’s the easiest to create yourself. However, we’d also argue that because winged eyeliner will always be in style, it’s worth taking the time to learn how to perfect it for yourself.Once you’ve perfected your winged liner technique, you can branch out from traditional black and brown liner and try a colorful winged look.
EYELINER IDEA #7: NUDE EYELINER
Sometimes, going with a nearly invisible eyeliner hue can be just as bold as black or brown. Use nude eyeliner to brighten the appearance of your eyes, make your eyes appear larger, or layer it underneath your eye shadow to make it really pop.
EYELINER IDEA #8: COLORFUL CAT EYE
One easy way to update a traditional cat eye is to reach for a colored eyeliner pencil, rather than your everyday black shade. This is a simple and fun way to update a cat eye for different seasons and occasions. Choose a beautiful cobalt blue for the summer months, or switch to a metallic silver or gold.
EYELINER IDEA #9: TWO-TONED EYELINER
Two-toned eyeshadow is a timeless look, but two shades of liner can be equally as stunning. What’s more, it’s easier to apply than you might think; Simply line your upper lash line as usual, or however you like (winged, cat eye, a traditional thin line—it’s up to you!). Then choose a second color of eyeliner and carefully trace just above that line. That’s it—your two-toned liner look is done!
Need some color combo inspiration? Try layering a bright shade on top of traditional black, such as the Black on the bottom and Blue on top. Or, go for warmer shades and try layering a liner, like the Brown with Burgundy on top. Mix things up and get creative!
EYELINER IDEA #10: DOTTED CAT EYE
The typical cat eye involves a winged line of eyeliner, of course, but what would happen if you were to replace that straight line with dots? We’ll tell you what will happen: a gorgeous and super fun twist on your standard cat eye. Add an extra element of fun and apply your dots using a colored eyeliner pencil, like a bold blue or a bright purple!
