Today, I’m going to talk about eyeliner application.
I liken it to riding a bike – once you’ve cracked it, it’s a skill for life!
Practice makes perfect when it comes to applying eyeliner the correct way – nobody would expect you to ride a bike from the first moment you sat on it and the same goes for applying eyeliner;
there is skill involved.
If we didn’t have help from our parents when we were very little, it would be unlikely
that we would master the skill of cycling very quickly and most importantly with joy.
The same is true of applying eyeliner. Defining the eyes is the most empowering thing a woman
can achieve for her eyes. There are three key points we need to understand about eyeliner:
Application
A lot of my clients are women in their 40s and 50s and struggle with eyeliner application,
it’s something I see time and time again. Learning where to apply the liner is key,
once you have been shown this, you will be amazed at the difference it makes to your whole look.
Technique
The majority of women have never had the time or proper training to show them how to hold
the product in the correct way to get the best results and to make sure it is applied equally to
both the left and right eyes.
Texture
So which products do you choose? The choices are vast and very confusing…
will it be liquid, felt tip, gel, waterproof gel pencil or a normal kohl pencil?
Together, we will find the perfect one for you.
I can guarantee that after one make up lesson with me, we will find the perfect product
to enhance your eyes. You will be brimming with newfound confidence in applying
eyeliner and will know what suits you best.
You will learn the best techniques for creating beautifully defined eyes.
My 3 favourite eyeliners at the moment are:
BY TERRY
Crayon Kohl Terrybly “Blue Vision”
Use this eyeliner for application “in-between” lashes to define and lift eyes.
BURBERRY
Effortless Kohl Eyeliner “Antique Gold No.07”
This name of this liner speaks for itself. The perfect soft, golden brown colour suits almost every eye colour. I use this colour to define the lower lash line and also to create a quick frame all around the eyes for soft, elegant definition. Buy this product from Burberry and you will be glad you did!
GUERLAIN
L’Art Du Trait Precision Felt Eyeliner “01 Ultra Black”
This new eyeliner from Guerlain is a must when I need to the draw perfect flick.
Its felt tip gives the perfect amount of eyeliner.
I LOVE this product!!
