There are a few basic techniques to master when Applying Gel Eyeliner that can help you get your desired look.  The first thing you need to consider is the product that you will be working with. You should use a  gel eyeliner that is not too wet and not too dry. If it is too dry, you end up getting drag marks and your liner looks dotty and fragmented. If your liner is too wet you can smudge and end up with liner all over your face before it has time to dry.

You should test this on your hand before you buy to make sure it is not too dry or not too wet, it needs to be somewhere in the middle. The brush needs to  move easily and the liner should dry  fairly quickly, then you have the right formula. It is important to consider what type of applicator you will be using. There are some great gel liners that come in pencil form if you are at all uncertain about using a brush. Using a brush, however, does give you a bit more control over the product. If you choose to use a brush, you should use a tapered one as an  angled brush does offer a bit more control.  When using a brush you want to rest your pinky just below your eye on your cheekbone for added stability.

Start from the centre of the lid, you then need to work your line out to the corner of your eye. After you have the outer half of your eye lined, you need to work from the tear duct area to meet the line that you have already drawn.

If you mess up, don’t worry too much get, you can always thicken the line to cover up any imperfections or simply clean it off and start again.

When Applying Gel Eyeliner practice makes perfect.
