Precise eyeliner can take your make-up to the next level. However, applying eyeliner can be a real challenge, especially for beginners. We'll show you how to apply the perfect eyeliner in this make-up tip. Whether classic black, dramatic cat eyes, or colorful and creative, with our tips and tricks, applying eyeliner is child's play!
Look straight in the mirror and start by drawing a fine line with a black eyeliner pencil with a firm and precise felt tip. Start at the lower waterline of your eye and draw in the direction of your eyebrow.
As we are applying an eyeliner suitable for everyday use, the line should not be too long.
Start at the end of the first line and draw straight back to the eye with the eyeliner. The line should end at the upper waterline. The aim is to create a wing that is discreet and narrow. This also prevents the eyeliner from disappearing under the eyelid if your eyelids droop a bit.
Now fill in the area between the lines. If you wish, you can draw a fine connecting line along your lashes to the wing.
You can intensify any eyeliner look by creating a thicker and fuller-looking lash line.
Use a slanted brush with firmer bristles, moisten it with the pigments from your eyeliner and work the color precisely into the gaps between the lashes and the upper waterline.
Ein Cat Eyeliner verleiht dem Blick sofort Ausdruck und Präzision, mit der richtigen Technik gelingt er Schritt für Schritt.
Springe an dieser Stelle an den Anfang unserer Anleitung und schminke als erstes den klassischen Eyeliner Look. Er dient als Basis für den Cat-Eyeliner.
Einen Cat Eyeliner zeichnen scharfe und präzise Linien aus, die einen leicht mandelförmigen, verführerischen Ausdruck verleihen.
Ziehe Deine Augenbrauen leicht hoch und setzte im Augeninnenwinkel mit dem Eyeliner an. Zeichne die erste Linie in Richtung des Wimpernkranzes.
Füge die Spitze im Augeninnenwinkel hinzu, indem Du gerade in den Spiegel schaust. Führe die Linie weiter zum unteren Wimpernkranz.
Gleite mit dem Eyeliner dicht am oberen Wimpernkranz entlang, bis die Verbindung zum Wing geschaffen ist. Fange mit gestrichelten Linien an und verstärke die Linie nach Belieben.
Senke Dein Kinn leicht nach unten und verlängere den Wing weiter nach außen. Passe die Dicke des Wings an die Linie über den Wimpern an und perfektioniere die Spitze.
Greife zu einem wasserfesten Eyeliner mit weicher Spitze, da jetzt an der Wasserlinie gezeichnet wird.
Betone Deinen Augeninnenwinkel indem Du den gesamten oberen Wimpernkranz ausfüllst.
Zeichne mit einem langanhaltenden Eyeliner eine Linie nah an den Wimpern vom Augeninnenwinkel nach außen. Bei diesem Look wird kein Wing gezeichnet, deshalb sollte Dein Eyeliner beim Augenaußenwinkel abschließen.
Der Punkt am unteren Wimpernkranz sollte in einer Linie mit Deiner Pupille stehen. Schaue dazu gerade in den Spiegel und zeichne den Punkt mit kreisenden Bewegungen.
Von klassischen Blautönen über bunte Statement-Farben bis hin zu Eyelinern mit Glitzer-Effekt. – farbige Eyeliner bieten unzählige Möglichkeiten, Deine Augen in Szene zu setzen. Je nach Nuance und Finish kannst Du ausdrucksstarke Looks kreieren oder sanfte Farbakzente setzen.

Eyeliner comes in a wide variety of forms: With a felt tip, liquid, gel, or pencil (link). They have a more intense color than kajal pencils and are intended for sharp, precise eyelid lines.
Kajal pencils (kohl eyeliner, or other eyeliner pencils) differ in their application and result depending on the degree of hardness and the texture. While kajal pencils with a hard tip are also suitable for precise lines, soft kajals are easier to blend out and can be used for smokey eyes, soft transitions or the waterline, for example.
Eyeliners with a felt tip are ideal for beginners as they are easy to use and produce clean lines. But start with a small wing or use brown eyeliner.
Also try pencil eyeliner for more natural eyeliner looks that are blended out and have a smokier effect, for example.
The classic eyeliner look fits every eye shape and is therefore perfect for beginners. Applied with a felt-tipped eyeliner, a precise and long-lasting line is guaranteed.
Tightlining, also known as lash-line thickening, is a technique in which gaps between the lashes on the upper lash line are filled in. The result is a thicker, fuller-looking lash line. Use softer, waterproof eyeliner in pencil form.
Choosing the right eyeliner color can make your eyes shine! While classic black always works, there are a variety of harmonious and complementary shades that will bring out your natural eye color even more.
Brown eyes: dark blue, bronze, violet
Blue eyes: brown, copper, navy blue
Green eyes: eggplant, gold, dark green
Hazelnut-colored eyes: olive green, bronze, plum
Grey eyes: silver, navy blue, taupe
No matter which color you choose - experiment with different shades to find out which look you like best!
Eyeliner with a felt tip has a firm, precise tip that allows for easy and controlled application. Thanks to the stable shape, fine and precise lines can be drawn without blurring. This eyeliner is particularly suitable for classic eyeliner lines or an elegant cat eye, as it provides clear definition and an even result.
Liquid eyeliner comes with a narrow, flexible brush tip that ensures maximum precision. This type of eyeliner is ideal for sharp wings and curved, flexible lines. Particularly creative make-up looks, such as graphic liner or double eyelid lines, can be achieved particularly cleanly and expressively with liquid eyeliner.
Eyeliner pencils are characterized by their soft, easily blendable texture, which is particularly comfortable to apply. They are perfect for tightlining as they can be applied gently to the waterline without irritation. They are also ideal for soft, smoky eyeliner or intense smokey eyes, as they can be blended effortlessly to create a soft, diffused effect.
