How oh how can we keep the inner waterliner from fading fast? It’s a
tough one, because our eyes are meant to stay wet, so the pencil that
we’ve traced along our inner rims is constantly rubbing against our wet
eyes every time we blink. Sigh… but I can share this little trick that
does seem to make it last a couple hours longer. I’m not saying it’s the
healthiest thing to do, so no need to make that comment below! I’m just
saying when I’ve sent a client down the red carpet, I’ve used this
trick to make it last throughout a long awards show. So how about we do
it on important nights, not every day?! Here’s how:
- Rim your waterline with a black kohl or kajal liner. This one
is our favorite because it’s waterproof yet creamy. Blink your lids
together to get the product on the upper waterline. For those of you who
are very comfortable with lining your eyes, look down and lift your
upper lid to rim the upper waterline as well.
- Dip a stiff angled eyeliner brush into a matte black eye shadow.
Tap it a few times against a counter to get rid of the excess product,
then “stamp” it along the waterline, directly on top of the original
kohl liner. Really work it into the line that’s in between the waterline
and the lash line, so no skin peeks through.
