How to Apply Eyeliner for Dramatic Makeup

From freem


Applying eyeliner can enhance the look of your eyes and create a dramatic makeup look. Here are the steps to apply eyeliner for a dramatic look:

1. Start with a clean and primed eyelid. Apply a small amount of eye primer to your eyelids to create a smooth base for your eyeliner.

2. Choose your eyeliner. For a dramatic look, you can use a liquid or gel eyeliner as they offer the most intense pigmentation.

3. Decide on the style of eyeliner you want. You can choose from a variety of styles, such as a classic winged eyeliner, smudged liner, or double winged liner.

4. Start at the inner corner of your eye. Draw a thin line from the inner corner of your eye, along your lash line. You can gradually make the line thicker as you move towards the outer corner of your eye.

5. Create a wing. To create a winged eyeliner look, draw a diagonal line from the outer corner of your eye towards the end of your eyebrow. Connect this line to the thick line you created in step 4.

6. Fill in any gaps. Use the eyeliner to fill in any gaps along your lash line. Make sure to keep the line as close to your lashes as possible.

7. Clean up any mistakes. Use a small angled brush dipped in makeup remover to clean up any mistakes or uneven lines.

8. Add mascara. Finish off your dramatic eye makeup look with a coat of mascara on your lashes.

Remember, practice makes perfect! Don't be discouraged if your eyeliner doesn't turn out perfectly the first time. With time and practice, you will master the art of applying eyeliner.
