Liquid Eyeliner





The time has finally come. It has been a good 50 years, but now is the time to bring back liquid eyeliner and its delicately winged goodness. It's such a beautiful, classic look and ultimately under-utilized, which is a shame. With the recent comeback of 50s and 60s fashion, liquid eyeliner is a natural extension. Sure it can be tricky to get on in a smooth, flawless line, but that's nothing a little practice won't fix. The modern version features little to no liner on the inner eye, growing to a thick short wing on the outer 1/3 of the eye.

Quick tip: Don't buy the cheap stuff! Nothing is more annoying than spending forever trying to get that line just right and then having it flake off 5 minutes after it dries. Also, give it time to dry!
