Eyeliner

I decided to use Aquacolour to create my perfect eyeliner as I feel I can work best with this product.  I also new greasepaint would be easier to smudge and aquacolour dries very quickly.

I used an angled eyebrow brush because I felt like I had more control over a brush like this.  I slightly wet it and dipped it in the black aquacolour.  I only made it slightly wet because I didn't want it to run down my model's face.

I asked my model to close her eye and I started in the middle of her eyelid.  I dragged the brush out to the outer corner of the eye and drew a thickish line. 

Next, I added a touch more product to my brush and thinned the line out towards the inner corner of her eye.

I then asked her to open her eye so I could apply the flick.  If your model's eye is open, it is easier to see where to join the flick to the edge of the eye.  I slowly did this and asked her to keep still until the product dried.  This was my first time I had ever done winged eyeliner and I was very pleased with the outcome.
