The Eyeliner Post



Applying eyeliner is something that I just can't get the hang of. Slowly I am getting there, but it takes me a while and a lot of concentration to apply it evenly on both lids, the wing is probably the hardest part for me.
The easiest way to apply it fast and decently is using the ''post-it note trick'': stick a post-it note from the outer corner of the eye towards the eyebrow tail.
The best way to not overdo with eyeliner is to start with a thin line with the open eye, so that you can see how it looks, and then making it thicker. I like to keep my makeup minimal so I normally go for a really thin winged eyeliner. My goal is to reach a point where I can apply eyeliner on a daily-ish basis.

Is there an area of makeup you feel you have to yet master?

    1. This is funny! I nominated you for the Liebster Award aswell, but I haven't posted my post yet. I answered a few of the questions you set for me aswell as the ones from the other blog which nominated me. I hope you won't mind if I still nominate you, it might be nice to just answer the questions to me in private!
