How to apply eyeliner for the best results?
To get the best results from your eyeliner, start by prepping your lids with a primer or concealer. Begin with simple, short strokes to gradually build your line, making it easier to control and correct. For a classic winged look, follow the natural angle of your lower lash line and flick outward. To make your lashes appear fuller, try tightlining by applying eyeliner to your upper waterline. If you're using pencil eyeliner, you can smudge it with a brush for a softer, smoky finish that adds depth and dimension to your eyes.
