Tightlining Your Eyeliner to Enhance Your Eyelashes
I've always been haunted by thin eyelashes. Anything that I can do to thicken my eyelashes, or to make them appear thicker, I do it. One of these techniques is called tightlining.
Tightlining, as the name suggests, involves lining your eyes with eyeliner tighter than regular (from the top) applications of eyeliner. With tightlining, the eyeliner is pushed into the lashes, creating a far more natural look.
Over time, I've found that it becomes easier to use tightlining than regular eyeliner application techniques, so I end up using this technique on a daily basis. With practice, you can make it look completely natural while making your lashes appear fuller.
As an added benefit, tightlining gives you slightly more canvas space for your eye makeup, if you're doing something like a smokey eye look. With the eyeliner at the bottom of your eyelid instead of above your lash line, you don't have to worry about uneven coloring above and below your eyeliner line.
I don't use eyeliner pencils for this, since it seems to mess my eyelashes up, poking them in all different directions. Gel liners work, but you can use eyeshadow in a pinch if you're careful, just make sure not to drop powder in your eyes. I've been there a few times, and it's not fun at all!
To start, grab your gel eyeliner (or eyeshadow, if you're using that) and a small, narrow makeup brush. Hold your eyelid up with one hand while applying the eyeliner from the bottom, making sure to push it through the lashes. I was paranoid about poking myself in the eye at first, but eventually I got over it.
With the brush there, wiggle it slightly side to side to apply the eyeliner, then move to the next part of your eye. Dragging the brush won't work here, since you'll be brushing your eyelashes all over the place, making them look haphazard and unnatural.
Repeat this across the entire lash line, making sure to get even coverage. There isn't a very good way to blend this, so take your time the first time you do it. I did it about ten times before I got something I liked, so don't worry if it isn't perfect at first.
The same applies to your lower lashes, except that you don't have to hold your eyelid up. Bring the brush in from underneath the lower lash line, and apply directly to the base of the eyelashes. As the lower lash line, I put far less emphasis on the eyelash base than on the upper lids, but it's important to do a bit of darkening here, again to keep everything looking natural.
If you've done it right, the bases of your eyelashes will appear darker. After adding mascara into the mix, I can actually see my eyelashes, which is amazing by itself. I can still apply slight winging to the eyeshadow (pulling the outside of the eyeliner into the crease on the outside of the eye) without it looking too noticeably unnatural.

What is the best gel eyeliner brand for oily eyelids?
I have a lot of problem finding a good eyeliner that won't make me look like a panda after a hot day any good recommendation
You can wear any high quality brand of gel eyeliner IF you first prep your lids with a primer and a neutral colored eyeshadow, which will help the eyeliner stay on longer (I like Smashbox Photo Finish Primer Light, which is made specifically for oily skin). After applying eyeliner, I also like to top it off with an eyeshadow in the same shade to keep the color in place all day.

Beauty in Summers
Summer is a time for floral fragrances. Summers can play havoc with the exposed parts of your skin. Summers are truly harsh and the most vulnerable part of your body is face, which remains uncovered almost all times. There are some makeup disasters that can happen in summer sun and a relaxing beach noon that we do not pay adequate attention too. Drik lots n lots of water. It your water intake is about 5-6glasses of water then increase it upto 10-12 glasses of water. Sunglasses protect your eyes but do not stop the sun from tanning the rest of your face, resulting in eyes with paler skin around it than the rest of the face. To avoid this, generously rub sunscreen with SPF 30 with a broad spectrum over your entire face. Use gel on your hair and use only the fresh razor with triple blades to shave bikini line to avoid any unsightly rashes.
Cleanliness is important because dust particles get stuck in the pores of the skin. Use eyeliner pencil of slate gray, warm chocolate or navy shades with a light hand. Use gel on your hair and use only the fresh razor with triple blades to shave bikini line to avoid any unsightly rashes. Warm blond and naturally medium brown hair with highlights may acquire coppery shades in sun due to oxidation.Hair color gloss can help you to achieve the shine again. Warm, sunny, bright blush can be used. Wear only natural nude shades as lip colors while going out to the beach. Moisturizer is key to keeping skin from losing its suppleness -- even if it is hot and humid. Light shade of bronzer on cheekbones and chin gives you a beautiful suntan.
Beauty Summers Tips.
1. Apply ice packs on face, it reduces sweating to a larger extent.
2. Don't use scrubs as it makes your skin dry.
3. Use Sunglasses. Sunglasses protect your eyes
4. Use eyeliner pencil of slate gray, warm chocolate or navy shades with a light hand.
5. Use gel on your hair and use only the fresh razor with triple blades to shave bikini line to avoid any unsightly rashes
6. Wear skimpier clothes so a killer bod is a must and good skin is a given.
7. Warm, sunny, bright blush can be used.
8. Wear only natural nude shades as lip colors while going out to the beach.
