What type of eyeliner do you prefer for different looks?
“I prefer an eyeliner pencil because they are multi-purpose and can be used on lower and upper lash lines,” says Moore. “With that, you can use an eyeliner pencil for a sharp or smokey eyeliner look, very versatile.” For Tricome, eyeliner pencils can double as eyeshadow primers. “I will apply the eyeliner along the lash line and all over the eyelid. Then, I will grab a brush and blend it out and apply eye shadow over top.” For winged looks, liquid is the way to go. “Liquid eyeliners are especially great for creating really thin, sharp lines,” adds Tricome.
How can people make their eyeliner last longer?
Be patient! “If you are working with liquid and gel eyeliners make sure they are fully dry before curling your eyelashes, applying mascara, or any other eye products,” says Tricome. “There is nothing worse than applying eyeliner and having your eyelash curling take it off or accidentally smudging it.” You can also seek out eyeliners that are formulated to be long-wearing. “Purchasing waterproof eyeliner is key, these formulas are made to ensure your eyeliner stays on all day,” says Moore. “You can also tap an eyeshadow that matches the color of the liner on top of the liner to ‘set’ the look in place.”
