How many of you wanted to create perfectly lined eyes but ended up looking like a panda instead? You should know how to use the eyeliner to elevate your eyes depending on your face shape and eyes.
Here is how you can use the perfect eyeliner styles:
- Round eyes
How do I know if I have round eyes?
Round eyes are usually large and quite wide. If you can see white above or below your iris when you look straight ahead, you have round eyes.
How should I apply my eyeliner?
If you’d like to make your eyes look a little longer, try lining the outer edges of your lash line, or go for a nice, long winged liner look. You could also apply liquid eyeliner on your upper lash line from about where your iris starts at the inner corner all the way to the outer corner.
- Almond eyes
How do I know if I have almond eyes?
Your eyes will literally look like the humble almond nut. When you look straight ahead, your iris disappears into your upper and lower eyelids.
How should I apply my eyeliner?
Go nuts with winged liner to complement the wonderful curves of your eyes. For bonus beauty points, give it a good flick up at the end. If you just want to use a regular pencil liner, like Avon Glimmersticks Diamonds Eye Liner, take note of your eye size before you start. Only draw a thin line for small eyes, and go a bit thicker for bigger eyes.
- Small eyes
How do I know if I have small eyes?
Look at your eyes in comparison to your nose and mouth. Are they proportionally smaller? Bingo, you have small eyes. You’ll also notice that the distance between the tips of your lashes and your brow bone is quite short.
How should I apply my eyeliner?
Never apply dark eyeliner on your bottom waterline, as this will make your eyes look even smaller. Instead, swipe a thin line on your top lash line and the outer corner of your bottom lash line to gently frame your eyes. For extra definition, try applying your liner in between the roots of your lashes
- Big eyes
How do I know if I have big eyes?
Your eyes are classified as ‘big’ if they are proportionally larger than the rest of your facial features, a la Mila.
How should I apply my eyeliner?
Lucky girl – having larger eyes means you can play around with lots of liner looks. First of all, you can easily line both your top and bottom waterlines without making your eyes look small. What’s more, you can apply eyeliner to the bottom lash line for the same reason. You can also experiment with other winged liner or cat eyes.
- Monolids
How do I know if I have monolids?
Monolids are flat and barely have a crease. The brow bone is also less defined.
How should I apply my eyeliner?
When lining your top lash line, start off with a thin line at the inner corner and make it thicker as you go along. A monolids the perfect canvas to play around with dramatic winged liner and cat eye looks.
