Eyeliner
about Eyeliner.
Korean eye makeup lives in the detail: a fine line hugging the lashes, a soft flick, a lit-up aegyo-sal under the eye. The Etude House Line Fix Brush Liner draws anything from a whisper-thin line to a sharp flick and holds it without smudging. The Etude House Tear Eye Liner adds a sheer, pearly sparkle under the lower lashes, and the colorgram All In One Aegyo-sal Maker brightens and shapes the soft under-eye curve in one pencil.
Oily lids need a liquid that sets fast and stands up to oil, while beginners find a wide, flat tip the easiest to steer. The same liner can give a soft line close to the lashes for everyday and a longer, sharper flick for evening.
questions, answered.
Which eyeliner stays put on oily lids?
A quick-drying liquid. The unleashia A by Unleashia Non Stop Liquid Eyeliner resists oil and humidity without flaking, the RED COOKIES Nunken Matte Eyeliner holds against oil, sweat and tears, and the Etude House Oh My Line dries fast to a line that stays smudge free all day. Keep your eye gently closed for a few seconds while it sets.
What is an aegyo-sal pencil and how do I use it?
Aegyo-sal is the small, soft curve just under the lower lashes that makes eyes look brighter and friendlier. The colorgram All In One Aegyo-sal Maker has two ends: sweep the light side along the curve to brighten it, then draw a soft shadow line just beneath with the other and blend it with a fingertip.
Which eyeliner is easiest for beginners?
The NeoGen Extra Tinted Edgeliner has a wide, flat tip that rests along the lash line and guides the stroke: use its face for a bold line and its edge for a fine one. If you prefer a brush, the Etude House Line Fix Brush Liner is flexible and forgiving. Draw in short strokes rather than one sweep.
Brown or black eyeliner?
Brown is the everyday choice in Korean makeup because it shapes the eye without a hard edge, and it looks softer on fair and warm-toned skin. Black gives definition for evenings. The unleashia A by Unleashia Non Stop Liquid Eyeliner comes in ash black and classic brown, so you can keep one of each.
