Eyeliner question?

Question

Just curious which is more better to have the eyeliner on the eyelid or under it?

Answer 1

I think eyeliner on the top lid looks more subtle yet opens up the eye more, if done correctly. Eyeliner on the bottom lid usually smears a lot on a lot of women.

Answer 2

Most definately liner on top!!! I absolutely hate liner on the bottom I see way to many women who look like racoons because the liner smears all under the eye and it looks horrific. I spend so much money on under eye cream to lighten up my under eye that I never put liner under there, It's pointless. Something cool I have been doing recently is with my MAC smudgeable black eyeliner I line the top of my eyelid after applying my shadow and I use my thin eyeliner brush to smudge the liner over the base of my eyelid. It gives it a cool smokey look and I can wear it as is or even add more color for added effect. I've had so many compliments. Have Fun!!

Answer 3

If you have a larger eyelid area, you can go in for thicker and softer eyeliner. Choose thin and intense eyeliner if you have small eyelid area. Avoid thick eyeliner for small or close-set eyes. For wide set eyes, emphasize the inner corners of the eyes. For close set eyes, emphasize the outer corners, keeping the inner corners highlighted. For drooping eyes, turn the outer end of the liner in an upward direction. Eyeliner should be applied close to the base of the eyelashes. Apply the eyeliner as close to the lash line as possible. Else you are likely to land up with a ghost line or strip of skin between your liner and lash line. This takes away from the effect of fuller lashes. It is not advisable to apply eyeliner in the rim of the eye. This would probably result in dark specks in the eye and appear unsightly. The eye is also likely to get irritated.

Answer 4

On the eyelid will give your lash base more depth and make them look thicker and define the shape of your eye. Only use eyeliner on the lower lash line for evening or if you want a dramatic look. You can use eyeliner inside the lashline if you are going for super dramatic dark eyes but be careful if your eyes are small, this will only make them look smaller.

Answer 5

Eyeliner on the top during the day not to thick. At night you can get away with liquid eyeliner on the top and pencil on the bottom for that dark mysterious look. Just watch out for smearing if you really like eyeliner on the bottom you can get it permanently tattooed it's not expensive and no smearing.

Answer 6

I wear waterproof eyeliner as I wear contact lenses. BUT, I wear mine just over the eye lashes on the top lid and then just below the eye lashes on the bottom of the eye. IF you need help go to a make up counter in macys they can show you how to put on make up and they dont charge you to do it either!

Answer 7

For a daytime look only put it on the top but at night a more Romantic look use bold eyes with eyliner also on the bottom.
