Cosmopolitan Sri Lanka|May 2019

Only second to lipstick, this is probably one of the most commonly followed steps in everyone’s make-up routine.

How To: Perfect Your Liner

STEP 1

If you’re using a pencil, make sure it’s sharpened. If you’re using a felt-tip or liquid eyeliner, hold the applicator horizontally along your lid, as close as possible to the lash line. You want to avoid using the tip of the applicator. If you’re using gel eyeliner, dip your brush in the pot so you’ve got product only on one side of your brush to avoid creating a mess.
