Eyeliner in Eye Makeup

Eyeliner

Eyeliner is a cosmetic used to add definition to the eyes. The three main types of eyeliner include gel eyeliner, liquid eyeliner, and pencil eyeliner, and each offers different benefits.

For a product that is easy to apply, try gel eyeliner. A thick and creamy consistency and a precision-style brush offer a beautiful result in minutes.

Liquid eyeliner comes in two different applications: marker-style products and vial-and-brush products. Unless you're very practiced at applying eyeliner, choose the marker style for easier use.

For everyday use, shop for a pencil eyeliner. Applied along your upper and lower lash lines, a pencil provides a subtle look for daytime. When smudged, this eyeliner creates a smokey eye perfect for evening. Pencils make great products for beginners because they aren't as messy as the other two types. For a bold look, all three eyeliners come in a variety of colors.
