Partially Lined Eyes
Another makeup blunder that has persisted through the years is the partial lining of the eyes. This practice is not only out-of-date but it also defeats the purpose of the eyeliner. The reason why women put a line on their eyes in the first place is to enhance the eyes and give them more emphasis. Partial lining, whether on the top or bottom eyelids, will make your eyes look smaller.

great tips. thanks.
Thanks for your replies guys!
Here are some more:
* Not cleaning your make-up applicators and brushes.
Applicators and brushes should be cleaned at least bi-weekly. Oil and bacteria build-up can wreak havoc. If you're prone to pimples, you'll be surprised how much this strategy works.
* Using too dark lip liner.
Don't use lip liner that is darker or lighter than your lips. When the lipstick wears off, you're left with a dark ring around your mouth. Try using lip liner that matches your lips and fill in your entire lip area.
* Leaving makeup on overnight.
We've all done this, but at what cost? Leaving make-up on for long periods of time clogs your pores and makes you more prone to blemishes. Don't do it, you'll feel better.
* Crooked, uneven liquid eyeliner.
If you choose to use liquid eyeliner, the trick is practice and a steady hand. If you can't keep your lines even, opt for an eye liner pencil.
