Preparation
Before using a white eye pencil, it's important to prepare the eye area properly. Follow these simple steps:
Cleanse the skin
Start by thoroughly cleansing your face with a gentle cleanser and drying carefully. This way, you'll remove any traces of dirt or residual makeup that could interfere with the application of the pencil.
Apply foundation
After cleaning your skin well, apply your favorite foundation all over the face area, including the eye area. This way, you'll even out the skin color and create a perfect base for applying the white eye pencil.
Use an eye primer
To improve the durability of the pencil and prevent smudging, apply a specific eye primer on the eyelid. This product will help fix the pencil and make the makeup more resistant throughout the day.
Blend the edges
Finally, to achieve a natural and professional result, it's important to blend the edges of the white eye pencil using a blending brush or your fingers. This way, you'll avoid too marked lines and create a luminous and elegant effect.
- Remember to follow these simple steps to prepare the eye area before applying the white eye pencil.
- Cleansing the skin, applying foundation, using an eye primer, and blending the edges are all important steps to achieve a professional and long-lasting result.
Application on the lower inner rim
The lower inner rim is the area between the lash line and the eye itself. Applying white eye pencil on this area can give an opening effect to the eye and increase brightness.
To apply white eye pencil on the lower inner rim, follow these simple steps:
- Clean well around the eye area to remove any traces of previous makeup or impurities.
- Hold the skin of the area taut with one hand, so as to prevent the pencil from going onto surrounding tissues.
- With your other hand, take the white eye pencil and gently apply it on the lower inner rim, starting from the inner corner of the eye until the end of the lash line.
- If you want an even more accentuated effect, you can repeat application of the pencil to create a thicker layer.
Remember not to overdo the amount of product applied on the lower inner rim: too frequent use could cause eye irritation. Additionally, if you have very small or close-set eyes, you may prefer to avoid this technique as it risks having the opposite effect to the desired one.
Application on the upper inner rim
Applying a white eye pencil on the upper inner rim is a simple yet effective trick to open up your gaze and make your eyes appear bigger. This method is particularly useful for those with small or tired-looking eyes.
How to apply white eye pencil on the upper inner rim
- Start by cleaning the area around your eyes thoroughly with a gentle cleanser to remove any makeup residue.
- Take your white eye pencil and make sure it's well sharpened. A pointed tip will allow you to apply the product more precisely.
- Gently pull down your lower eyelid with the fingers of your free hand, exposing the upper inner rim of your eye.
- With your other hand, gently apply the white eye pencil on the upper inner rim of your eye. Start from the inner corner of your eye and move outward, following the natural line of your eye.
- Repeat if necessary to intensify the color.
- For an even brighter effect, you can also apply some light eyeshadow on the inner corner of your eye.
Remember not to apply the white eye pencil inside your eye, on the lower inner rim. This could cause eye irritation or infection.
With a little practice, applying the white eye pencil on the upper inner rim will become a simple and quick gesture that will allow you to enhance your gaze in a natural and effective way.
Alternative uses
If you think that white eye pencil is only used to brighten up the inner corner of your eye, you're wrong. Here are some alternative uses:
1. Correct makeup mistakes
The white eye pencil can be used to correct makeup mistakes. For example, if you've applied too much eyeliner or mascara, you can pass the white eye pencil over the affected area to remove the excess.
2. Defined eyebrows
If you want to define your eyebrows and make them more prominent, you can use the white eye pencil. Apply the pencil under your eyebrow arch and gently blend with a soft-bristled brush. This will create a lifting effect and make your eyebrows appear more lifted.
3. Create new makeup designs
You can use the white eye pencil to create new makeup designs. For example, you can draw a thin line in the center of your lower lip to create the illusion of a bigger lip or apply it along your lower lash line to create a "cat-eye" effect.
4. Illuminate other parts of the face
In addition to the inner corner of the eye, you can use white eye pencil to illuminate other parts of the face. For example, you can apply it on the bridge of the nose or on the brow bone to create a light and shadow effect.
- The white eye pencil can also be used as a base for eyeshadow. Apply it on the eyelid and blend it with a soft bristle brush before applying eyeshadow.
- Remember that the white eye pencil must be well blended to avoid harsh and unnatural lines.
Conclusion:
As you have seen, white eye pencil has many alternative uses that can help you create new makeup designs and correct makeup mistakes. Experiment with the various uses of white eye pencil to find those that work best for you. Always remember to blend the pencil well to achieve a natural and professional look.
