Types of Eyeliners 

Here are some popular types of eyeliners that can help you attain that perfect look, no matter your style or skill level:

1. Pencil Eyeliner

Easy to use, the pencil eyeliner is a hit among many. It is more of an upgraded version of Kajal. The cream is smooth and, once on the lash line creates a great flow. It is definitely for new users. Choose between using pencils to sharpen to a certain extent for fine lines, or twist-up mechanical ones that are ready to paint the town red. Now, sharpening is certainly difficult, but the comfort in its application and excellent longevity make it worthwhile. Try the La Girl Pakistan’s Eyeliner Pencil for a smudge-proof, waterproof finish that lasts up to 36 hours.

2. Liquid Eyeliner

Liquid eyeliner is your go-to for bold and dramatic looks. If you're creating winged eyeliner, cat eyes, or graphic designs, it's perfect for it. However, mastering it requires practice and a steady hand. It's not ideal for smudged or smoky effects because of its quick-drying formula. For a glossy, long-lasting finish, try the Jetsetter Liquid Liner, which stays glossy and smudge-proof for 24 hours.

3. Pen Eyeliner

Want the work of a liquid eyeliner with the ease of a pencil? Use pen eyeliner! Its fine tip and sketch-pen-like design make it beginner-friendly. It has a soft and flexible tip. The mark my eyes eyeliner is a great pick, featuring a flexi-tip that helps quick, flawless application and a formula that dries fast for a matte finish. 

4. Gel Eyeliner

Gel eyeliner might seem intimidating, but it’s a game-changer once you get the hang of it. It is packaged in cute pots and used with an angled brush. Gel eyeliner doubles as an eyeshadow base and is perfect for smokey or soft, smudged lines. Its high wax content makes it waterproof and budge-proof. For a long-lasting, intense black look, try the Gel Eyeliner. Just remember to seal the pot tightly to prevent it from drying out!

5. Eyeshadow as Eyeliner

This isn’t a type of eyeliner but a clever hack! Use your favorite eyeshadow as eyeliner for soft, smudged lines or to experiment with colorful looks without buying a new product. For instance, a soft pink shade from the PRO Eyeshadow Palette creates a stunning daytime look. Although it may not last as long, this trick is playful and easy on the wallet.

How to Apply Eyeliner 

To apply eyeliner like a pro, start by covering your eyelids with an eye primer. This helps create a smooth surface. This makes your eyeliner last longer. When applying the eyeliner, trace your lash line as closely as possible to get a clean look. If you're new to this process, use small strokes instead of sweeping lines to create control and build up the color gradually; you can also use an eyeliner brush for a more decent look. 

Once this is in place, don't forget to complete the look with mascara for voluminous lashes-once curled, apply two coats of lengthening mascara. Finally, if you make any errors, just clean up with a cotton swab dipped in makeup remover for a perfect finish. You should know how to apply mascara so you don’t end up with raccoon eyes.

Conclusion 

To sum up, the perfect eyeliner for you depends on the look you're going for and your experience level. With appropriate techniques and products from LA Girl Pakistan, it is possible to master eyeliner and achieve amazing eye looks with ease.
