    Default girly makeup question >_>

    This is kinda dumb but, how are you meant to put eyeliner on? Some people do their eye make up so well. Are you meant to put it on your eye lid because I can't figure out how to do that without it looking like I've been punched in the eye.... so i just put it like underneath my eye... also I've been wearing like light eyeshadow..FOREVER..but if I use anything dark it makes me look (again) like I've been punched. (Although once someone told me my bright eyes made me look like some cute japanese girl... XD)

    So yeah help me learn to be glamourous..or something. Eye make up only the rest is blah.

    With eyeliner, you're supposed to pull your eyelid down a bit and pit it on the rim of it, above the lower eyelashes. It's tricky at first. And I only like light colours for eyeshadow as well. I like this purple colour that comes out light, but noticable, and it makes my eyes look extra green. Good luck, Xandy~

    You might say that my make up application skills tickle Dan's fancy. I make him pretty for his dates with BoB.

    I go overboard with my eyeliner, it gets me into trouble constantly at school, but I just cant help it xD

    With eyeliner, I use a pencil to do that bit inside my eye, and then liquid eyeliner on the rest. With liquid you have to be really careful, cause' you can't just wipe it like pencil it smudges horribly.

    This is such an old picture, but thats how I had my eyes once. Its an awful image, Im sorry xD Its all.. emo like.

    This ones alot more recent, its a bad picture, but you can see how much eyeliner I actually put on.

    I don't know how to put on eyeliner either! If I ever require it (Halloween etc) I just make my friends put it for me. You should do that too!
    This subliminal message could be meant for YOU. But it's probably not. Move along ;D

    I'm also wondering. I'd like to hear lots of different ways on how to do it. For my friend. She's a girl.

    Like Rye said, eyeliner goes above or as close to your upper and lower lases without actually going into the inside eye part. Close the eye that you're working on and hold a finger at the edge of your eye so that the lid stays more taunt. Apply the liner in tiny stokes from the outer edge to the inner edge. For the lower lashes, I like to apply it only about a half to a third of the way in from the outer edge of the eye.

    Light eyeshadow is good for a base and then you can put some darker shadow at the outer edges in a sideways V shape so that it goes into your crease as well as slightly under the eye. This makes your eyes look bigger. Shadow is usually applied before the eyeliner, but if you apply your eyeliner thicker than you'd like, you can put a bit of shadow over top of it to soften it a bit.

    One good thing to try to do is practice on weekends, so if you mess up than you have a few days to clean all smudges off before school.

    Shavvy? I always thought it was savvy?

    Anyhoo: I'm gonna practise just so I can look cool to girl mates and help them out and they'll be, like, "Oh <my real name>, you're so amazing! I love you!" or something like that.
