We're back! And the eyes have it!

OK y'all, I have been slacking on my pimpin but I am back! Had a bit of a personal crisis but life does go on right?
I have been playing a lot with eye liners lately..  liquid eye liner, gel eye liner and pencil eye liner. Which to choose you ask?  Well, it depends on two things; your skill/patience AND your desired look.
Lets say you want a smudgy, smokey eye... use pencil and smudge it.  Now, you can also do that with a gel liner but work quickly because it dries even more quickly.  If you want a more clean classic cat eye then you are going to want to use a liquid liner or gel.  A pencil can also be used but you will not achieve the same sharpness.
My favorites?  Well, here we go!

Brush-On Cream LinerGel liner:  I have 2 favorites. Clinique and Stila Smudge Pots
The benefit is once applied, they DO NOT MOVE!
Have to love it!


Liquid eyeliner: Well you may be a bit suprised by this by I LOVE Sephora's version.  You must have a steady hand and practice but once you get it, it looks gorgeous!

Long Lasting Eye Liner
 Last but not least.... Good ole' eye pencils...  Great for lining the eye and tight-lining (inside the eye line).  My ultimate favorite is MAC... you can't go wrong...



So there you have it.  Eye liner 101..  If you have any questions please comment and I will get back to you with some customized tips.  OK Glams! Until the next post. Be beautiful inside and out!
