eyeliner

I found this web site with lots of eyeliner designs...although some look like a 3 year old scribbled on their faces, some look really good...If you want to look go here

All the designs are terrible.

A lot of them were weird. I need advice for eyeliner designs since every time i try to do a flick, I end up looking Egyptian. I'm serious!!! Apparently I can seem a bit Egyptian, but with the flick people say that I seem Egyptian. Its not the people since there have been others in my school who have tried the flick and it looks good on them, but I have been advised not to try it.

So do you guyz have any ideas?

Egyptian is good. Look at Siouxsie.

I don't see why Egyptian is a bad thing. Maybe you could try toning the flicks down abit....to be honest though...I don't see anything wrong with what you're doing.

A lot of those look like they got hit with a supersoaker full of liquid makeup.

:::: sprays tea on the table ::::: cough cough, that was too funny kwaniesiam, I was drinking my tea and tried not to laugh, but ya got me there.

I did see alot of creativity there which is the good part, but most were a bit too extreme, kinda like something I saw at the Madri Gras years ago.

I do agree with kimaru about the "3 year old scribbled on their faces" look, I think they should have stayed out of their mommy's make-up vanity.

Well, there are about 2-3 nice designs, but as for the rest... I'm not really into the whole eyes-running-down-your-face make-up.

Really? Okay. Some people were telling me that its a bad thing but then again those same people may also have no idea who Siouxsie is. LOL.

Some are nice(on that website down there), but mainly I find the majority of them are over done. That, and my eye structure would kill me if I ever tried any of those. tehe.

Oh my goodness that site made me laugh. You weren't kidding when you said it looked as if a three-year-old had scribbled on their faces... they sort of reminded me of clowns, in a way at least.

I never did elaborate designs with my eyeliner. The flicks is about as far and "hardcore" as I've ever gotten... I rather keep it that way, considering I'd probably turn my face into a Picasso piece if I tried anything further than that.

I'm afraid to use eyeliner every day because well I wear bright lipstick and it kinda makes any other make up seem whorish and ALSO because I'm afraid that it will give me wrinkles from all the eye pulling.
Is that true?

I would just get carried away. And my eyeliner is prone to being slightly smudged by the end of the day, which doesn't look too bad around my eyes, just looks smoky, but all the way down my face would look bad. Definitely when it was some elaborate design.

See...I don't mind large designs around the eyes/heavy eyemakeup...I do it myself.

I think there are things you need to keep in mind though, like....does this suit my face shape!?...are my facial features hard enough to carry off heavy makeup!? Is it tasteful!? etc

Those designs remind me of that episode in the simpson where Homer creates a makeup gun...and then shoots it at Marge and she ends up with big blobs of makeup all over her face...hehehehe!

Good times.

But some of those people went extremely overboard. There was the one that had make up down to her chin along the front of her face. But I have no problem with a tasteful, elegant design.

I thought a couple of them were kinda nice. Most of them weren't though.

Ninety-eight percent of the pictures on that site were just plain ridiculous. Did anyone even see the picture of the girl with all those blue curly-q's around her eyes? (Shudders). Thanks to that girl, I am officially scarred for life.....

Ha, not really. But, you have to admit, most of the pictures on that site were horribly AWFUL.....

I think it's safe to say that most of those were pretty awful. And very repetitive. How many times can one draw the same thing, each time calling it 'innovative'? Those weren't very good. Most of them left alot of room for improvement.

Well i have one question for you do flick down or up, because flicking up creates an egyption style while down flick creates kindof a darker, and almost sadder appearance

I'm too soft-core for those. And some of them are just hideous on even the models. Cat's eye and simple flick line up is all I can get away with without looking like an imbecile.

I used to do some scrollwork on the outer corner of one eye for special occasions. One day, I just quit doing it and was never able to again. I rather liked it, too.
