This is one of the oldest tricks in the book and how makeup artists made gel liners back in Old Hollywood. It really fills in the holes in between your lashes and gives you an intense smudge like a kajal liner or grease paint. It’s super simple and easy, but if you’re a minor please get adult supervision.
TOOLS
- A kohl eye liner pencil from your local drug store. Our favorites {that you probably already have in your makeup drawer} that work especially well using this technique arethis Maybelline one and this one from Covergirl.
- An open flame {a lighter is nice because it’s portable, but you can also use a candle or a gas stove top}.
STEPS
- To slightly liquefy it, hold the tip of the pencil in the flame for one quick second. Don’t even say one Mississippi!
- Wait 15 seconds for the pencil to cool down. It gets really hot so you have to let it cool down then always test it out on the back of your hand before you go anywhere near your eye!!
- Roll it a little on the back of your hand to mold and keep the tip pointed while it’s becoming a solid again.
- Sweep the liner along your upper + lower lashlines as well as your inner waterline if you want to make your eyes even more piercing.
