Most girls put it just on the bottom of your lashes, but that makes your eyes look droopy and unbalanced. Put it lightly on the top AND bottom, or if you're in a rush just put it on the top.

Here are some quotes from makeup sites:

Eyeliner Errors

When applying eyeliner your tendency may be to want to keep it quick and simple by only applying to the bottom of your eye. This mistake will end up making your eyes look droopy and tired. If you want to wear eyeliner at all you should be sure to take the time to apply to both the top and the bottom of the eye. If you want a bit of eyeliner and want to keep it quick then put it on the top of your eye to avoid looking droopy.

Miss use of eyeliner:

Do you want droopy dog eyes? I don't think so. But if you are being a hound dog for Halloween and you want to keep the makeup simple, just put eyeliner on the bottom lashes. When you put eyeliner just on the bottom lashes of the eye it will cause the eye to look droopy. If you want to wear eyeliner on the bottom, always wear it on the top as well. You can wear eyeliner on the top and not the bottom but if you are going to wear it on the bottom, you have to wear it on the top too.

This is the one that can absolutely drive me crazy. If I am talking to someone wearing their eyeliner just on the bottom lashes I either have to tell them the correct way or walk away. I just can't take it!

As a general rule of thumb, eyeliner should be applied as close to your natural lash line as possible. For most women, this is on top of the bottom lashes. Now on occasion if you're going for a truly dramatic look or a look for the stage it may be appropriate to thicken the line so that it extends below the lash line, but this is the exception, not the rule.

it depends on what look you are going for. if you want to extend your eyes line the top with the outer corners thicker and winged. if you want to make your eyes rounder then line the bottom. if you want to enhance your eyes, line the lower part with a dark brown or brown color and thinly line the top with black. you have to be careful because eyeliner when overused can look harsh. for a smoky look put eyeshadow on top and bottom then line top and bottom smudge until desired look is achieved. if you are goth then i guess you can line top and bottom.

Nah. You do not need to emphasize those lashes. Just the top ones, to make them look thicker. Do the bottom lashes, and you'll either look like an Egyptian, a goth, or a racoon. Bottom lashes are overkill.

i think people are misunderstandng your question.....

you want to put the eyelines on top of your bottom lashes...putting it underneath will make your eyes look unrealistically big!

If you want a dramatic look, then apply the eyeliner both underneath and above your eyes.
