Makeup Tutorial: How to Apply Eyeliner

Before explaining how to apply eyeshadow tutorial I'll first talk about the many types of eyeliners. Then I will explain how to do a cat eye, a smokey eye and a basic eye for daytime.

There are three types of eyeliner: an eyeliner pencil, a liquid liner or a shadow eyeliner.
• Shadow eyeliner: The third type is to use your eyeshadow using a brush or the eyeshadow applicator.

How to Apply Liquid Eyeliner
Line the eye from the inner corner of the eye in one big sweep.

The Basic Daytime Eye
Once you've done that you apply an eye pencil or the eye shadow to the lower lashes. When applying to the lower lashes you can use a different color if you want.

The Always popular Smoky Eye
• Apply eyeliner from the inner corner of the eye outward.
• Apply a deep color shadow over the eyeliner to set the line.
Once the line is drawn, run your finger over it to smudge the line.

The Cat Eye
• Apply liquid liner along the upper lash line from corner to corner of eye, extending the line upward at the outer corner of eye.

Let liner dry.
• Apply liner only to the outer three quarters of the rim and extend the line upwards at the outer corners.
