How to Use Eyeshadow as Eyeliner

There are hundreds of different makeup products on the market, but the question you may be asking yourself is “do I really need all of them?” If you’ve ever been tempted to try a bright blue eyeliner but haven’t wanted to purchase one or if you just don’t wear black liner very often the great news is that you can just use your eyeshadow, and there are two ways how.

Use Eyeshadow Dry

Using your plain eyeshadow dry on your preferred eyeliner brush creates a really beautiful soft and smoky eyeliner easily. If you struggle with liner using a dry eyeshadow means you can easily smudge out any mistakes and soften any areas that you’re not completely happy with.

Turn it into a Liquid Eyeliner

One thing I love about makeup is its ability to transform into a different formula with the help of other products and application techniques. Mixing medium often seems like a product you may not need in your collection but it can become an essential (add a drop to a dried out cream product and it will become creamy again) You can create a liquid eyeliner super easily with just a drop of mixing medium and some eyeshadow (which is great because you can also create unusual shades if you wish) then just apply it as though it were a liquid/gel eyeliner with your preferred brush for a perfect crisp, clean line.
