To apply eyeliner on hooded eyes, you can follow these tips and techniques:
- Use transfer-proof products that are long-lasting, as excess skin on hooded eyes can easily smudge eyeliner.
- Apply an eye primer before eyeliner to help extend its wear and prevent any transfer by locking the liner into place.
- Apply your eyeliner before the rest of your eyeshadow, as hooded eyes have less lid space to work with. Apply a thin line of product along your upper and lower lash lines, and then go over the eyeliner with an angled makeup brush to buff out the product.
- Choose an eyeliner that dries quickly, like a gel liner, to avoid smudging.
- For a natural look, try using different types of eyeliner, such as a pencil, gel, or liquid liner, and blend them together.
- If you have hooded eyes and want to do a winged eyeliner, try the soft smoky straight line method instead of a regular winged eyeliner, which can interfere with the fold of your hood and look distorted.
When choosing eyeliner products, its important to consider their positive and negative aspects, as well as their ingredients or materials. For example, LOreal Voluminous Liner Noir Liquid Eyeliner is a transfer-proof product that applies smoothly and is long-lasting. LOreal Paris Infallible Grip Mechanical Gel Eyeliner has a pointed tip to help the gel eyeliner glide smoothly across the lash line and give a thin and precise line. However, some eyeliners may contain ingredients that can cause irritation or allergic reactions, so its important to check the ingredients list and do a patch test before using them.
