A tip about liquid eyeliner, ladies: Practice makes perfect. I find that the best way to apply it is to start about a quarter of the way out from your inner eye corner, then boldly sweep out to the ends. Just…hold your breath and do it! Then do it again, every morning, for, oh…about a month. That’s how long it took me to get it down! I’ve received tidbits of advice on this from various makeup artists, and here’s a good one: You don’t have to draw a perfect line; you can make short dashes, connecting them until you reach the outer corner. Or, try making dots in between your lashes, going at them from underneath. My favorite black liquid liner right now is by Kat Von D for Sephora ($16, coming soon to sephora.com). The black liquid comes in two textures: matte and shimmering. Happy practicing!
