Eyeliner is an essential part of many women's makeup routine. A single stroke can enhance your eyes for everyday makeup, but it can also intensify your evening looks.
However, choosing the right eyeliner and how to apply it is often difficult. By habit, we tend to stick to black and winged eyeliner, but there are many other alternatives for wearing eyeliner.

Which color to choose?

The unbeatable black

Black eyeliner is a must-have in any makeup bag. It intensifies a gaze in seconds, and the advantage is that it pairs well with all colors. Whether you have blue, green, or brown eyes, black eyeliner remains a safe bet.

However, for very fair skin, this color can be very stark, and the look can quickly appear harsh... For everyday makeup, this can quickly become too much.

 

Softer shades

As we saw previously, black is sometimes too harsh for fair skin. There are other more nuanced shades that will perfectly suit your eyes.

For blue eyes, gray or brown shades will be preferred to bring out the eyes gently. These colors will allow you to highlight your eyes without overdoing it.

For green eyes, violet and bronze shades will work best. Indeed, they will perfectly emphasize the green color of the iris. A good alternative to stark black.

For brown eyes, you can choose a khaki or dark blue that will add a touch of fantasy to your makeup while perfectly highlighting your eyes.

Dare to use pop shades!

You couldn't have missed this runway trend; in fact, this year's fashion is all about pop eyeliner. For those who want to experiment with a fresh and vibrant makeup look, don't hesitate to go for flashy shades.

Brown and black eyes can indulge in all extravagances. For others, it will be necessary to be careful that the color of the eyeliner does not overpower the color of your eyes.

So dare to use yellow, pink, or electric blue to emphasize your gaze with originality!

 

Adapt the line to your eyes!

The eyeliner line allows you to redefine your gaze to correct a few small imperfections. If your eyes are too wide-set or too close-set, too large or too small, eyeliner will be your best ally for a perfect look!

Wide-set eyes

Are you self-conscious about having wide-set eyes? Don't panic, with a well-placed liner line, you can remedy this complex in no time. To do this, you will press on the inner corner of the eye to fill in the space between your eyes a little more. It is unnecessary for you to draw a very long winged eye as this could accentuate the distance between your eyes.

Close-set eyes

Now, we are in the opposite case. If you find your eyes too close, we will adopt the inverse technique. Indeed, we will accentuate the line on the outer corner of the eye to stretch the winged eye effect as much as possible to open your gaze and erase the close-set aspect of your eyes.

Small eyes

You don't dare to wear eyeliner because you think it might make your eyes look even heavier and smaller? To enlarge your gaze, the trick is to draw a classic eyeliner line on the upper eyelid without stretching it too much. Then, on the lower lash line, you can draw a line that meets your tip, starting from the middle of the lash line.

Round eyes

Are you self-conscious because you feel like you have a bulging gaze due to your round eyes? To fix this, simply lengthen your gaze by starting from the corner of the eye and drawing a thin line, then thickening it halfway across your eyelid. You will then have a perfectly executed winged eye!

You now know all the secrets for an eyeliner perfectly suited to the color and shape of your eyes. So don't hesitate and adopt this little makeup gem that can be endlessly varied. Wear it every day for simple makeup or for special occasions, your eyeliner will never leave you!
