A flawlessly applied eyeliner can create a mesmerizing glance and since this makeup style is uber-popular due to its timeless elegance and can easily be shaped to match the eye shape, achieving fabulous looking eyes using makeup will now be a breeze. There are numerous types to experiment with depending on what works for you, so give eyeliner pens/gels a try to find which one works best in your hands. For flawless results, apply a primer on the eyelid (especially if you have oily eyelids) as this will even out the skin tone providing a perfect base for the color you’re about to apply.

Go simple and daytime-chic with an ‘au naturel’ eyeliner style by creating a soft and thin line as close to the eyelashes as you can. If you want to achieve a sexy, vintage inspired look, opt for a gorgeous cat eyeliner style by extending the line upwards as soon as you reach the outer corner of the eye. If you’re all about statement, dramatic makeup styles, opt for a thick winged eyeliner that goes gradually from thin to thick starting from the inner corner towards the outer corner of the eye. Use waterproof eyeliner if you have droopy and/or eyelids to ensure your eyeliner stays fabulous from day to evening without any touch-ups!
