Black and White: Eyeliners for your Waterline

If you have eye phobias you might want to skip this post. 🙂
BLACK EYELINERS
Layering eyeliner in your waterline adds a sophisticated flare to your make-up. You can also tightline, or get the liner in a thin layer as close as you can on your lash line, your eyeliner on your upper and lower lashes it make them appear fuller and frames your eye in inky mystic.
Your waterline is that thin piece of skin above your lower eyelashes, and the skin right below your upper lashes.
As you can see below the eye appears larger and the lashes thicker.
If you don’t like the look of black liner on your bottom waterline try it on the upper water line. Just that little bit of extra black liner adds the illusion of thicker wispy eyelashes.
WHITE or NUDE EYELINER
I’ve seen many actresses and actors with white or nude colored liner on their bottom water line to brighten and create the look of a larger eye.
Some make up artists feel a pure white liner is too harsh and instead opt for a nude eyeliner that is more flesh toned. A very popular nude eyeliner is Rimmel London ScandalEyes Waterproof Kohl Eyeliner.

Tips for Eyeliner in your Waterline
1. Dry out your waterline with a Q-Tip before you put liner on your waterline.
2. Use the soft tip of a regular eyeliner to dip into a pot of long lasting gel liner. The pencil is easier to use than a make up brush. Don’t blink, and let it dry.
3. If you wear contacts put your eyeliner on first and let dry for a minute so your contacts don’t get coated in eyeliner.
4. Liner in your waterline needs to be touched up. It can goop up in the corner of you eye so use a long wearing waterproof liner, and check on it often.
5. Be careful…you are super close to your pretty eyes and they don’t want to be poked by a sharp eyeliner.
