. Eyeliner is a staple in the world of makeup. It's been around since Cleopatra. It's always been pretty. Always has been. It has been sexy but it is very difficult, it really is even for a makeup artist. There are tips and tricks that will help you do it better and help you try it in case you have never tried it, so this video is literally for beginners or beginners who always wanted to. make

eyeliner

but don't really know where to start or you ventured into the world of eyeliner but then made a lot of

mistakes

and then gave up or you just might have used eyeliner the wrong way now come to me.

I might be thinking that there's something weird about your eyes it's because on this side I created the eyeliner in the way that I think is wrong but in a realistic way um I don't like to exaggerate things about makeup because then I don't think it really you learn anything, so on this side of the face I created the eyeliner as I see very often women do and maybe if you had seen this, you know, on both eyes, you would have thought that it's actually not so bad, you know? I agree, it's not that bad, I mean, at the end of the day, it's just makeup.

Okay, it's not brain surgery, but then if you see this side of the face as it might look, then you might say, "Oh, now I get it." I get it, that's why I like to point out the

mistakes

so you better understand what you could do to improve your technique because now it's all about technique, if you want to see what to do and what not to do. eyeliner, then keep looking, okay, now we will get very close, please, when you are a beginner and want to learn how to do eyeliner, you should know some tricks first, don't use a product that is waterproof. or super long-lasting like the marc jacobs highliner that I use all the time or the pat mcgrath perma-gel that I use all the time because those types of products wherever you apply

them

are very difficult to take off, that's more for someone who has a little experience when it comes to making eyeliner.

I suggest you use a product like a pencil first, not a liquid eyeliner, because it is easier to remove it in case you make any mistakes, so this makeup artist color pencil forever. This is just perfect, honestly, I love it, sharpen it real good, my left side is going to be the wrong side, okay, the first mistake you can make is just pulling the eyes like this, okay, and then you just follow this line, okay , that's how it is. It's not going to work most of the time because this is very misleading when you're looking like this it's very misleading and as you can see it was a lot lower than I think it's flattering this is the number one most common mistake the second mistake than what What you could do is just take this line, go down and then go up, wait, this is not realistic as a lot of people do this, make this little coma, this could eventually work and actually, let me be more realistic with this.

I have a mirror. Right here, that's why I stand aside and apply it like this. I see a lot of women doing this actually when I'm doing my courses, like one-on-one courses with women when I used to do that because we don't know why anymore when I ask women how, show me what's your way of doing eyeliner, actually this type of shape is very common here and here comes the third error, do you see this little space here? between the lashes and the actual pencil, like this is not a good idea on this side of my face, I'll show you how I suggest you do it, but first let me finish with all the possible mistakes you could make to ruin your eyeliner another common mistake is make your eye shorter than it is no not finish the line that's how it usually is and then you stop somewhere here because most women would be afraid like they don't really know they don't know how to do it.

Continue this line so they stop here and then add mascara and that's it, that's not really flattering on anyone. Let me show you on this side of the eye the things that could help you create a nice straight easy eyeliner. I'm taking the same pencil, I use it on the side, I keep this pencil flat on the cover of the phone, okay, just with the side and then with the tip, I get between the eyelashes using the tip and getting between the eyelashes, you give that. Beautiful black foundation, it just doesn't flatter anyone when there is a gap between your product and the lashes.

This is what I advise you to do if you are a beginner, so look at yourself in the mirror and from the middle of your pupil you will start. to make your line a little thicker and then you put on the last lash well and then look directly in the mirror. This is the secret. I would say look directly in the mirror, especially if your eyes are a little squinted or if you have deep-set eyes like me and then imagine that my water line continues, okay, imagine there would be a line that continues from the water line. water up, it's okay, that's the line you should have in your mind, it's okay for each person. it's different so for me I look directly in the mirror I use just the tip of my pencil to draw the direction of the wing and then I fill in the space here from here to here now I can raise my eyebrows and perfect If I had done this, if I had raised my eyebrows eyebrows from the beginning, I would have been completely fooled when it comes to this beautiful sexy black line that frames our eyes, you have to be patient, so now I just perfect it and Some days I want my line to be perfect and other days I'm fine, You know, be fine.

Now I applied mascara and I want to show you something. If you had seen this eye without having seen this one, you would. I thought maybe you know it's actually not bad because mascara always helps, but if I show you this side of my face, can you see how much better your eyeliner can be? It's okay if you define yourself like this. Everything I'm trying to do. What I do in this video is show you a different way that you could take maybe or maybe not. I don't know, it's only available for you to try if you're up for it.

I really hope you enjoyed this video and learned. something new and if you did give it a thumbs up and let me know what other do's and don'ts you would like me to do because I think this is the best and easiest way for a person to learn to elevate their techniques thank you very much for watch and see you in my next video goodbye, if I take off my makeup one more time I'm going to strangle someone and baby, I don't live with anyone else except you, it's not going to work, but then it works
