Plain but tightlined

[user3]

I sort of have a small job interview today so I wanted to stay very simple. The gal I am meeting with was a truck driver for 15 years and I really want this job so I didn't want to come off too girlie. KWIM


On the eyes all I did was apply Urban Decay Primer Potion with a sheer wash of Rimmel insipration. I applied 2 coats of DiorShow mascara in black and used my Pixi push brush to tightline some MAC Blacktrack Fluidline up into my lash line. On the brows I used MAC brow set in ShowOff. I also lined the bottom waterline with Philosophy The present pencil.


***Since there has been a small buzz on tightlining I took the pic with just one eye done so you could see the difference.
I do my tightlining a bit different. I dont' like to pull my lid back so I just fill my push brush up with fluidline and hold the brush just under my lashes and push and wiggle the fluidline into the lashes. I even blink a bit to get it up good into the lashes. Once I an done I blink a few times to allow it to dry and then I wiped the extra off that got onto my bottom waterline.

For the rest of the face *not shown I used Nars Outlaw and Dr.Pepper lip balm.


I also want to say that I really adore everyone here and love the encouragement we give each other!

This is my eys semi open

This is my eyes fully open

Here's the tools I used for the tightlining

Hugs to you all!

Amen to that!!!!

Your eyes look amazing, I wondered how tightlining looked, I've seen it mentioned quite a lot recently.

How did the interview go?

Amazing lashes, and I think you were wise to go somewhat natural to please your audience. =-)

Thanks!!!

It is similar to putting liner on the waterline.
You basically push eyeliner or a color up into the base of your lashes. I line the waterline too. I feel it looks better. You push the color in from underneath the lashes and push it inbetween the lashes.
You can basically use anything to do it but I like to use a push brush and MAC fluidline. Cake liner is also very easy to use.

Wow! I didn't know this made such a difference!

 

[Luxurious]

very nice...

 

[AudreyNicole]

That makes a huge difference! Would MAC have a brush similar to the one you used? If so, what number?

 

[circusflavouredgum]

So subtle, but so pretty! Glad to hear about the job, congratulations!

Looks amazing! Tightlining is something I hope to master one day....one day...
