Thanks, I appreciate that...Especially considering the fact that when that picture was taken, Dustin was 20 and I was 36 :p
It's not really easy to explain how to apply eyeliner in text...If you were here, I could just show you...But...Hmm
Well, to make your eyes look larger and bolder, you put the eyeliner on the edge of your top eyelid, behind your eyelashes...and below the edge of the lashes on the bottom...It would be on the 'outside' of your eyes
To make the eyes look more dramatic, and intense, you put the eyeliner on the 'inside' of your lids...that little pink line on the top and bottom, between your eyeball and your eyelashes...This is how I ALWAYS do mine
Either way you do it, make sure not to leave any spaces...Connect the line in the corner of your eye by your nose, and on the other corner, bring the eyeliner to a point, following the natural line of your lower lid outward...You extend the eyeliner out about a half an inch, then connect it to the line from the top lid
Jeez...I don't think any of this is making any sense...lol
I'll try to find some pics where you can see my eyes better (because I always do it the same way)
Okay, in this one, I think you can see how it's on the 'inside' (My hair is wet and messy because I had just removed my towel and Seri snapped the picture, like an ass...Also, I was standing next to the open back door and the sun was in my face, so you may not be able to see it well) :
In these, you might be able to see the 'point' of the outside extended lines a little better:
Damn...I would suck at writing tutorials :p
Anyway...I used to put it on Seri, Dustin and Shane the exact same way, always on the inside...But, now they have learned to do it themselves and they like it that way
I really hope you could make some sense out of that
EDIT: OH, I left out an important part...For best results ALWAYS use black, and use a 'soft' pencil...I ONLY use Prestige Waterproof pencils...You can get them at Walgreens, I've never seen them anywhere else...But, I'm sure that any 'soft' pencil would work
