This is the simplest and most natural looking, basic eyeliner look. It will work well for everyday makeup. It is simple to achieve and just within a few minutes. The key to this style is to just follow the natural shape of your eyes. Start by drawing shorter and smaller strokes along the upper lash line. Do not try a single stroke of line from the inner to the outer corner of the eyes as it will be difficult to connect and create an even line. Instead, start by drawing smaller strokes and connect them later by going over it again. Rest your little finger over your cheeks to provide support to your hand while drawing the line.

Everyone loves to have bigger, bolder eyes. This style will help in accentuating and highlighting your eyes the best way. Apply a creamy kajal to your waterline. Then, start smudging the line softly with a smudge brush or a pencil shaped brush, and bring it down slightly to the bottom lower lash line in a thick manner. This step can also be finished by setting it with a matching eye shadow to increase the longevity of the kajal.

The latest, hottest trend seen in runways is to wear a tiny flick at the corner of the eye. Start by creating a tiny small angular line at the outer corner of the eye by connecting a line from the lower lash line. This step can be done by using a cello tape as a guideline.

Want to sport a stylish look in the parties to mesmerize everyone. Learn the steps to get it:

The dramatic liner look is similar to the cat eye look, but this one is intense and more apt for parties. Draw a line at the outer corner of the eye by connecting a line from the lower lash line, almost reaching to the eye brow end. Then, pull the line inwards to the center of the eyelid and fill the shape formed to complete the look. It is best to have the lower lash line light for this makeup; and avoid filling it completely for this style. Try to keep it simple with a nude kohl pencil or a lighter color kajal for this style.

5. Double Winged Liner Look:
