Stupid question

[andrrea]

For all of you who use eyeshadow as liner, how do you apply it? Is it supposed to be done wet?

 

[Sheikah]

You can do it wet with a angled brush for a more defined line or dry with the same brush for a soft liner effect. I also use the product She Laq from Benefit and mix a drop of it with a bit of loose eyeshadow and it turns into liquid liner that lasts all day. If you're going to use the brush wet be careful when picking the e/s from the pan as it may get crusty in that area. HTH

I use a drop of visine with the shadow and use it as a liner, seems to last all day for me!!

 

[andrrea]

Thanks!!! I assume that you would wet the brush as opposed to the shadow?

 

[bellagia]

angled brush or even a lip brush will work fine.

 

[Louvain]

err.....what's visine please? (i sound thick!) If i want a smokey eye i apply mine dry.

 

[Bjooti]

It varies for me, sometimes I apply it wet (for more intensity) and when I want a smokier look I apply it dry

 

[Lauren]

I usually apply it wet. Visine is a brand of eye drops fyi!

 

[joybelle]

I use aloe vera. It's tricky at first but it works well.

 

[Duchess Ravenwaves]

Angled brush, I usually apply it dry.

 

[speedy]

I do either, depending on the look that I want.

 

[clover]

I apply it both ways, depends on what kind of look I want.

 

[Jennifer]

i don't use it wet.

 

[fiji]

I use water or smashbox off-set. sometimes dry on the bottom for a smudgy look

 

[mmonroemaniac]

yeah i use it wet for a more definde line

 

[Joan_CD]

I will have to try the Visine thing... sounds cool

 

[Karren]

I also ues a stiff angled brush and dry.....

 

[fawp]

I use an angled brush with a little eyedrop solution but at work we just use makeup remover. You would think it would ruin the shadow but it actually works really well.

 

[magosienne]

i use an angled brush. i apply the e/s dry if i want to smudge the line, or i just wet the brush for a more defined line. you can also use a pointed brush, it's your personal preference.

wet but not to much just moist/damp
