Tightlining your eyes...

Happy Monday bloggers :) The weather has really been dreary lately, mostly cloudy and rainy...seems like FL Spring to me! (hehe) Today as I was doing my makeup, I really decided to make my eyes pop by tightlining under my top lashes. I didn't know about doing this trick until last year, and really only knew of lining the waterline. So why tightline?

Tightlining your eyes (or you could call it "invisible eye liner") is a great way to add definition to your eyes. Instead of lining the skin above your lashes (which many of us still have to master), you line between the lash line. This method is perfect for any casual or fancy occasion, and is super easy to master.


Step One: If you're a beginner at tightlining, using clean fingers, gently lift your lashes upward. You'll see tiny gaps between your lash hairs, which you'll be filling in with eye liner. Once you have become a expert at tightlining, you won't have to lift up your lashes and just simply draw on the line.

Step Two: Using your eyeliner, draw the eye liner directly under each individual lash (as close to the root as possible), to fill in your lash line. This technique helps to make your lashes look fuller.

Tada! Now you have officially learned how to tightline :) If you'd like to intensify the look, tightline your bottom lash line as well. It's the same concept as the top, but you'll be filling in the space between your lower lashes.
