Using Eyeliner, is hard Options

[Joss-eh-lime]

I have the pencil eyeliner, but cant use it! It is hard for me to push down on the bottom lid. Any tricks? Or maybe a better 'glide' on pencil kind?

[tmauze]

I KNOW!! i put it on the actual lid which actually looks really good but rubs off very easily.

[Joss-eh-lime]

I cant even get it even on the lid part!

[love-issosweet]

get those liquid ones...pricey though

[JackieEcstatic]

hehe.. im addicted to eye liner so lets see.. yeah.. its probably the kind of eye liner youre using. i usually use N.Y.C. it works great. right now i'm using Singature eye liner.. it works great, too.

[danishcookiez]

use prestige pencil eyeliner. it's very good, and very cheap.

[Hiphop d[-_-]b]

you should pull your lower lid down and look up while still sorta looking down at the lid in the mirror .. know what i mean ? then slowly just go over it back and forth, until its the way you like it.

i use this loreal thingy that smudges ... i dont like smudgy.

liquid eyeliner is easier to apply but with a lil practice with your pencil eyeliner you should be able to get it down

[Nicolatofu]

the pencil eyeliner doesn't go on as easy.. sometimes you gotta heat it up so it gets soft and goes on.. I use swivel up eyeliner.. it glides on and stays on very well.. liquid works good too, but it takes a little more practice

[swe3ttemptasian]

liquid eyeliner is the best..

or get.. Too Faced Lava Eyeliner.. something like that. pricey though

[xSiLLyMex]

Yea. I cant get it on the bottom lash either..So I just put it on the actual lid. After a while it wears off..Nd its on the lash line.

[JackieEcstatic]

man.. i cant use that liquid stuff.. i think its so hard!! you guys must show me your ways!!! :P

[teeners4]

i would help you, but i cant put on eyeliner either! so people give me adivce! xP

i only know how to put on mascara and lipstick xP always wanted to try eyeliner, but i cant let things near my eye >< especially THAT near

[ANG33ZY]

i wouldn't know .. i never tried to use it. lol.

[Looow]

Prestige is really good & cheap =]

[gohomejes]

liquid is the best :D

but for pencil, use a lighter and warm the tip just a bit...goes on much nicer

[____simpLicity x]

use the liquid instead of da penciL ..

[iheartjohn]

Technically, pencil eyeliner is for the top lid and liquid eyeliner is for the bottom lid.

I would suggest getting black eyeshadow and drawing it on like eyeliner. That's what most celeb makeup artists do. It's a lot softer on the eyes.

i use the pencil. i used to use NYC but now i use covergirl. when the pencil is new, it's too sharp for me to apply it to my eye. i usually take a tissue and wear it down a little. then it's easier to apply. eyeliner is so much fun to experiment with!

[yellowgurl]

never tried to use it ^^

[nicky04033]

perhaps u can go for a liquid eyeliner?

[hotpocket0003]

When I have a stubborn eye liner I always get my moms lighter and I run the tip through the flame just for a little second. It makes it go on like liquid and it stays on soo long. I go through eye liner like mad.

[swe3ttemptasian]

man.. i cant use that liquid stuff.. i think its so hard!! you guys must show me your ways!!! :P

really???? liquid eyeliner is so easy to apply..

[TheSpoon]

i put it on very randomly but on the top of the lid and then smudge it slightly so it looks normal. but for the bottom one, i do VERY carefully and i like pull my eye down and use the side of the pencil to apply the...stuff

[Nerve_Agents!]

dude i dont know how meny time i have poked my self in the eye!!! owch! lol try a sharp pencil! and hope 4 the best!

[x LUV x ALWAYS x]

eyeliner is really hard to put on at first. my first one was NYC but it actually was kinda stubborn and i had trouble with it but it was fine after a while. my friend helped me out with it. but then i lost that pencil.......so in italy, when i went there with my friends, i got a Dior swivelup eyeliner + shadow in one. it works pretty well. im actually worse at putting it on my upper lid than my bottom one though.

[xxtaintedlips]

ahhh..the wonders of eyeliner.. i was never able to use it either

[miss barnes]

i use liquid and the pencil...the pencil used to be hard but, i practiced

[xtransatlanticis...]

huh. when i use regular pencil eyeliner, after a few hours it creases and then it's just like a few really thin black lines on my eyelid. maybe cause i'm asian. dunno.

i actually find liquid harder to apply; it's hard for me to make the thickness of the lines same on each eye. and then i can't blink or else it smudges. and the brush wand thingy attacks my cornea. i use rimmel.

[kpgrl4eva]

liquid is harder. pencil isnt that hard. just practice and you'll get the hang of it.

[clarissa]

i use the kind that you twist.. i think its by covergirl.. it goes on pretty easy and it doesnt smudge.

[*stephinika*]

hmm i use a pencil for the bottom when i actually wear makeup lol...it just takes practice, or try using black eyeshadow or liquid eyeliner.

[lolthissiteisfun...]

liquid eyeliner is good when u haven't quite mastered it yet. i use pencil now, but I used to use Lancome Eye something. Their liquid eyeliner, lol. It doesn't get all gooby and thick, its almost like a pencil, but is softer and goes on faster. it comes in like a mascara tube. it worked so well, and doesn't really look like liquid. its kinda pricey tho

[sexii_baobeii]

well if it doesnt work try using a liquid one. or iff u wanna, use Stila's smudge pots with an eyeliner brush. ; )

[Shadow_Valkyrie]

I use eyeliner all the time.. actually im wearing it now.. it's kinda easy.. just push the lid HARD!! or maybe ur eyeliner lid is broken or smth

[xMayleex]

I find it really easy, i have a liquid one and the ordinary pencil one, i use the pencil one my often though. I cant do my top eyelid for some reason which really bugs me
