Liquid Eyeliner


Hello Beautiful People!

This is my first offical blog! I will be updating you all on my latest work, newest makeup tricks/tips, and my favorite new beauty products.

I had a project for my Beauty class today on beauty trends of Fall-Winter 2009. I did mine on the history of eyeliner! Eyeliner has been used for centuries to accent the eyes. In the past they first started with minerals like kohl that was kept in small jars and lightly smugged around the outter rim of the eye. My favorite type of eyeliner is liquid eyeliner. Yes, it takes some practice and a steady hand to use liquid eyeliners but it give the cleanest and longest lasting finish!

I have gotten caught up in the classic "cat eye" or "pin up" look when applying my eyeliner. While studying the trends forecasting books at the library I discovered that the leading beauty industries have started using double eyeliner strokes to adorn the eyes. This modern spin on the liner which used parellel lines to open up the eyes caught my attention because it was a new way to wear my liquid liner!

I wore the double liner look to class and presented my project. It may not be casual enough to wear to school but to my surprise everyone of my classmates loved it!
