Eye Makeup Tricks That Will Bail You Out Every Time

Makeup enhances one’s personality to a great extent. We all crave to look good, but most of us find the makeup regimes too tacky to handle. You don’t really have to be a makeup pro to be able to apply makeup well. A few tips and tricks can do wonders! We’ve come up with simple eye makeup hacks that would help you become adept at doing various makeovers for yourself. Voila! Now, you need not fret about going to the parlor every time you want to look your fabulous best!

Trick #1: Winged Eyeliner- How To Draw Perfect Flicks EVERY TIME!

Eyeliners can either prove to be your BFF or your worst enemy ever! Have you been unable to master the art of creating the perfect cat eye look? Here’s a simple trick! Use an eyeliner brush and dip its tip into a gel eyeliner pot. Start drawing the line from the outer corner of your eye, moving inwards into the middle of your eyelid. Now, start drawing from the inner corner of your eye and join both the lines together. While doing so, the angle of your brush must be towards your temple (not the tail of your eyebrow!).

By doing this, you have more control on how you want to draw the line; thin or thick! Once you’re done with this, draw an elongated triangle off the tail and connect it to the liner. Once you get the desired shape, fill in the triangle.

Trick #2: A White Eye Pencil Can Help You Open Up Your Eyes!

If you still don’t have a white eye pencil, then now’s the time for you to invest in one! Instead of applying routine black kohl in your waterline, try out a white eye pencil. It really helps to create an illusion of a bigger eye! Started imagining your tiny eyes popping out?

Trick #3: Get That False Eyelash Look Without False Lashes!

Applying false lashes can be a really painful task and it can be very time consuming as well (need not mention that!). Skip all that hassle by following a simple trick. Once you’re done with the job of curling your lashes, use a blending brush and sweep a thin layer of powder from the top to the bottom of your eyelashes before applying the mascara. It creates a base for the mascara and they appear bushier.

Apply a coat of mascara to your eyelashes, wait for a couple of minutes and then apply another coat. While doing so, don’t just move your wand from the bottom to the top of your lashes. Instead try moving the wand back and forth while going up. This left and right motion ensures that every lash is covered. There you are! Ready with a false eyelash look!

Trick #4: Lash Curling Trick

Take your lash curler and hold a blow dryer next to it for a few seconds. Does this remind you of your curling iron? Well, the technique with both tools is the same! The heat will give a long lasting flirty look to your lashes! Pinch the curler at the base of your lashes and then start lifting the curler up in an inverted position and get the perfect curls.

CAUTION: Make sure you don’t heat up the curler too much and end up burning your eyelid!

Trick #5: Fill Eyebrow Gaps

A bold eyebrow can always be a great attention seeker! Don’t use a black eyebrow pencil to fill in the gaps, as it may appear too harsh. Rather, use a charcoal or dark brown eye shadow. It gives a natural look to your eyebrows and fills the gap evenly.

Trick #6: Clump-Free Lashes – So Hard To Achieve, Right?

Clump free lashes are no longer difficult with this simple trick! Now this may make you feel like you’re wasting your favorite mascara, but wiping your wand over a tissue before every use can give you a clump-free and seamless coat!

Trick #7: Fix Clumpy Mascara

Every beauty product comes with an expiry date. Same is the case with mascaras as well! Usually, you should use mascara for not more than 3 months or it may lead to eye infections. If it tends to dry before those 3 months, then you can revive it by just adding 2-3 drops of saline solution. Shake it well and your clumpy mascara is ready to use again!
