Colored eyeliner. What do guys think?

[justbanANNAz]

Sup... so my eyes are hazel and yea I do stick to good old black liner, sometimes I like to be experimental with color:)

the only colored eyeliner iv worn is blue or green since they match my eye color. guys, what do you think of this? and girls do you wear colored eyeliner sometimes?

I don't know what kind of colors you wanna wear but as a makeup artist I would recommend brown and gold with your brown eyes. I use black eyeliner most of the time but I like to change it up with purple and green cause it fits my green eyes. I have also done blue cause I did a whole summer tropical look but blue isn't my color.

[justbanANNAz]

omg your a makeup artist? id love to hear advice from u!:)

i have both those colors=] I tried them both but they didn't stand out that much. are they supposed to be subtle? thanks omg I find it so cool that your a makeup artist :)

[caligirl3]

yes I am :) yes brown will give you a natural look.

[justbanANNAz]

That's awesome:) thanks:)

Btw can you give me a few quick tips on how to do a quick smokey eye? I know there's vids but another opinion would b good:) thanks!

[justbanANNAz]

A good*

[caligirl3]

sure I'll message you

[caligirl3]

i couldn't message you so I'll try to explain here. a smokey eye can be done with any color and with 2 colors or more. what I do is that I do the "outline" with the darkest color. I use a blending eye brush and apply the darkest color along the crease above the eye and right under the brow bone. The outline goes from the outer corner of the eye where I do a wing and I stop like 1/4 of an inch from the inner corner of my eye.

[caligirl3]

when the outline is created blend the outline so there is no harsh edges, brush towards the nose and not the other way around.when the outline is even and all the color edges are gone. you apply the second color on the naked skin on your eyelid and blend it together with the darker color your just applied. apply eyeliner and put on mascara on and you are done. Its really hard to explain how to do cause I never really think about it I just do.

[caligirl3]

i have pictures on my instagram @gigigabardini you can see there what I have done with the colors and where I placed them and it will give you a better idea on how to do a smokey eye.

[justbanANNAz]

aw thank you! thatd b awesome=] ill DEFINITELY do that if I need help [which I deffs will lol] so thanks for the offer! ill add u=]

[GoodVibesAlissa]

I LOVE black eye liner . . because it can make any eye color pop. But, occasionally I like to use blue eyeliner just to try to something different. It gives my eye make up a whole new look, and it makes brown eyes look smoldering lol. & It's fun to do a winged eyeliner look with a blue eye liner . . it looks very pretty :)

[justbanANNAz]

Black eyeliner is awesome!

Blue is beautiful too:) iv never tried the winged look tbh, ill give it a go, thanks:)

[tiredofwaiting]

I like the first two colors but when I wear liner it is usually black also.

[justbanANNAz]

:)

Yeah black is a lot more natural looking

[sovetskii13]

I think they're too strong. They just pop out, and it's the only thing I can notice when looking at the girl for the first few seconds. Black is my favorite. I think it looks most natural on eyelashes and around the eyes.

[justbanANNAz]

Yea it is strong, its better if its used as a one off thing in my opinion but I totally agree with you also:) thanks

[Sekrett]

Don't look good, too strong. The focus goes on the color instead of eyes, defeating the purpose anyway. And doesn't look natural. Think that's why girls use dark color.

[justbanANNAz]

Fair enough, I agree on that point. Thanks:)

I only like it when it applied to the lower lash line like the last link.

If its on the top I think it looks best with a thin line of black and then the colored liner above it.

I like to wear jewel tones like amethyst, emerald, and blue sapphire liners. I also like like silver, gold, turquoise liners.

I think colored liner is a great way to add color because I think colorful eyeshadow looks stupid. I only like neutral and smokey eyeshadow looks.

[justbanANNAz]

Oh yeah iv seen that done as well, that also looks great:) id need more patience to put two liners above each other without stuffing up hehe.

Im very natural with my colors as well.

The colors you wear sound really nice:)

[RedSmartie]

I do it for occasions, but that's it really.

I have light brown/amber eyes with a bit of green in them. I typically use brown eyeliner but I've used gold and apple green before and it works pretty well for bringing out the bits of yellow and green in my eyes.

[justbanANNAz]

Oh wow that sounds really pretty:) I tried gold once but it didn't show much, mightve been my skin. You have a nice eye color:)

[Luv2run]

i think its pretty during the spring and summer months! It's a cute look if your going to the beach, pool etc.

[justbanANNAz]

Oo that's a good idea, keeping it for warmer months:) I like that, thanks=]

[HandsomeRaj]

I've LOVED (read in BOLD LARGER FONT & UNDERLINED) colored eyeliners ever since time began. I think they are awesome and as long as the person wearing them knows how to use them and with which ensemble they are THE BEST :D

[justbanANNAz]

oh wow talk about enthusiasm! glad 2 hear it!:D

[HandsomeRaj]

Dunno why that is one of the things I've always loved :D

[justbanANNAz]

thats a good thing=] girls like it when men appreciate that creative side:)

[Anonymous]

I wear colored liner all the time. My eyes are dark brown and I look a lot better with navy liner instead of basic black. I also sometimes wear purple and would wear a dark green if I could find one pigmented enough to show up on my complexion.

i get compliments from other women all the time, but I don't think guys care much about your makeup. I mean what guy besides one that's really into fashion/cosmetics will be like "omg I love your liner, its so pretty"

[blackkid4]

I like it. Depends on the occasion of course but it can be amazing stuff.

I can't believe I like a form of facepaint. I'm disappointed in myself now.

[justbanANNAz]

kool:)

haha that's OK, its like any other makeup, jus different:P

[blackkid4]

Well anything that brings out the eyes ( I love eyes, which now makes me 30% creepier than I was before that admission ) is great so I absolutely love the stuff.

[justbanANNAz]

thats OK, if it makes you feel better I love eyes too:)

awesome to hear, thanks=]

[Account]

I really like them. Especially the 2nd one. :)

Personally, I usually use black but I like other colors too.

[justbanANNAz]

Yea same here, black is more my thing too... My people invented the stuff!;)

[Account]

:)

[Evey7]

i think using them can make my eyes brighter``` but I just use black or brown ones. my eyes are black, so I don't think other colors fit.

sometime times eyeliners are necessary for eye shadow.

[justbanANNAz]

fair enough, yeah they are nice occasionally=]

[deannarose]

I wouldn't do it on myself, but some girls can pull it off.

[justbanANNAz]

Yea true..

U don't do it because you don't like it or think you can't pull it off?

[deannarose]

Yeah the most "color" I would do is like a navy eyeliner.

[justbanANNAz]

oh k fair enough. that sounds nice too=]

[Nightlife]

Same as you, black blue and green

[justbanANNAz]

Kool thanks:)

[Katy16]

I love it, I think it looks gorgeous :)

[justbanANNAz]

It does:) really brings out the eyes with some extra pop:P

[Anonymous]

Never really have. But I love black eyeliner. LOVE it.

[justbanANNAz]

black eyeliner is sexy;)

[vincehb89]

I think its nice with the right color

[justbanANNAz]

yeah true not all colors work on all people

[Tabra]

My husband loves it when not overdone

[justbanANNAz]
