Steps to Apply Liquid Eyeliner The Easy Way:
1) Choose your Liquid Eyeliner
You wish to use a liquid eyeliner but you have to pick the suitable application style. Liquid eye liner is available in 2 main types: dip-brush and felt tip.
- Felt tip liner is just like a marker and the liner is fed through it like a pen.
- Dip brush liner is like a nail polish and contains a bottle and brush. All you need to do is dip the brush in the bottle and apply.
2) Prepare your Eyelids
Applying eyeliner comes between applying eye shadow and mascara. You can put a liner stick to the eye lids or eyelid primer for the eye shadow. If you wish to apply an eye shadow, then apply it right now and the liner will go over the top.
3) Get in the Right Position
The greatest difficulty while applying eye liner is shivering hands, your hand needs to be very steady especially when you are applying a liquid liner. A shivering hand will lead to an uneven application. To avoid this problem, keep your elbow on a hard surface like your dressing table and your hand on the cheeks while applying. If you have had some practice then you can try holding a tiny mirror in the other hand. Always use a small mirror and not a huge one as you need to get a good view of just your liner.
4) Draw a Row of Dots of Dashes
When you apply the liquid eyeliner, make sure you do not put it on one straight line, chances are you might get a wavy line. You can draw dashes or dots along the upper eyelash line and keep an even space between the dots or dashes.
5) Connect the Dots
Use short, small, slow strokes for connecting the dashes or dots. This way you will create a proper and perfectly even line without a single wave. Do not try to connect all the dots in just one stroke instead use many small strokes between every mark.

6) Smooth out your Line
If you notice that the top of the liner has some breaks between the dots and dashes, with a steady hand draw a very thin line along the edge and this way smooth it out.
7) Add Your Tail
A small tail can make your liner look perfect. Draw a small line till your upper eyelash line and draw a tiny triangle at the end with the upper eyelash line and then fill in the space.
