Now On to the good stuff! Let's Talk Liners!

There are so many choices out there how do you know what's best for you? well lets get educated and you can decide for yourself!

Kohl- Kohl liners are great when you want to achieve more of a smokey look, how to achieve this is line your eye with your fave kohl liner than with a small angle brush smudge the line into the lid to get the desired smokey affect you would like to achieve! I do not like wearing kohl liners for the entire day I feel like they don't last as long but they are fab for a nice night out!

Gel- Gel liners are the latest in liners, they go on solid and last all day! to apply gel liners grab your handy dandy eye liner brush dip into the get liner and apply to lash line until you get the look you desire! the down fall of gel liners is that that if you make a mistake they are not as easy to fix! If you are going to wear it on the bottom lash line keep it super thin, but I suggest pencil for this!

Liquid- Liquid Liners have been around for a while and have many pro's and con's, most come with there very own brush simply apply to top lash line! Don't have a steady hand? try doing smaller shorter lines instead of one long one! I do not suggest using this on the bottom lid if your eyes run you will get liner marks under your eye!

Pencil- Ahh Good Ole Faithful! Pencil is my Fave for everyday use, and why you may ask? well its the most fixable its moves easily and can easily be fixed with your handy dandy angled brush with a few quick strokes! You can make it smokey or keep it more solid the choices are endless..... and there are lots of different options out there! I love to use MARK no wear to run! This Pencil stays on all day and if you suffer from allergies like I do this year, it even stands up to the water eye!

What ever Liner you choose to use make sure you have fun with it try some new colors or different lines! If you afraid of using a different color liner start with a nude eye and a plum liner, than get a little braver from there!

Don't Forget to remove all the eyeliner fun Before bed! Either choose quick and easy makeup wipes! or for a cost effective way use olive oil on a flat cotton ball this will remove all the makeup while adding moisture to the eye lashes, without clogging your pores!

I hope you all enjoyed out chat about eye liners! remember have fun it all washes off!

Love and Lipstick,
Lo
