To use charcoal eyeliner, create a rough outline along your lash line, fill it in, and clean up any smudges with a Q-tip.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
-
Outline: Lightly sketch a line along your upper or lower lash line using the charcoal. Don't worry about perfection at this stage.
-
Fill In: Thicken the line and fill in any gaps in the outline. You can build up the intensity of the color gradually.
-
Clean Up: Use a Q-tip to correct any mistakes, soften harsh lines, and remove smudges. You can also use the Q-tip to smudge the charcoal for a smokier effect.
Charcoal eyeliner, especially when made from wood burned to charcoal, provides a matte finish and smooth application.
