Eyeliner Makeup for Cool Eyeliner Looks

  1. EYELINER LOOK #1: FISHTAIL LINER

    You’ve likely heard of a fishtail braid, but have you heard of fishtail eyeliner? This look combines a subtle wing on the top lash line that extends to the inner corner of the eye. But, what really sets it apart is the bold liner below the eye. This look is perfect for someone with almond-shaped eyes who wants to accentuate their eye shape. To ensure that your fishtail eyeliner look lasts all day, go for a bold, black liner like Tattoo Studio Ink Pen.

  2. EYELINER LOOK #2: BLUE LINER

    One of the easiest ways to level up your look is by adding color. A classic black wing is great, but by swapping out black for blue, you instantly add interest. If you look closely, this look actually features a double wing with black on the bottom and blue on top for a subtle colorblock effect. Master Precise Liquid Eyeliner comes in blue and black and will give you the sharp lines that this look calls for.

  3. EYELINER LOOK #3: NATURAL LINER

    If it’s not broken, don’t fix it. A classic feline flick is a classic eyeliner look for a reason. Simply lining the top lash line can do a lot for you, including defining your eyes and making your lashes look thicker sans shadow or much other makeup. Use the Tattoo Studio Ink Pen to achieve this natural eyeliner look that will easily take you from day to night.

  4. EYELINER LOOK #4: THICK WINGED LINER

    If you’re someone who already wears and loves a natural feline flick, you don’t have to do much to elevate your eyeliner look. Rather than keeping the line and wing thin and crisp, don’t be afraid to go thicker for a bolder winged style. We love the ultra-fine precision tip of Master Precise Liquid Eyeliner, which is perfect for smoothly drawing on your liner to achieve this look.

  5. EYELINER LOOK #5: GRAPHIC GREEN LINER

    For the eyeliner pros out there, you’ll love this totally unique look that’s so cool, we don’t know where to look first. And we have to be honest, it just wouldn’t look as cool if it was done in black. Using the Emerald Green shade of Master Precise Liquid Eyeliner, let your creativity take over as you draw outside the (lash) lines.

  6. EYELINER LOOK #6: ALL-AROUND WINGED LINER

    Winged liner is super chic, but to up the ante, may we suggest the all-around winged liner? This eyeliner look is all things bold and beautiful. All you need to do is create your thick winged look on the top, add a bold line on the bottom, too, and then connect them. Voila, you have an eyeliner design that’ll have all eyes on you. Try Tattoo Studio Gel Pencil for bold pigment that lasts for 36 hours.

  7. EYELINER LOOK #7: WINGED LINER

    A winged liner look is always chic, always flattering, and always in style, but make it even more special by using a metallic liner. Nail this look with Tattoo Studio Gel Pencil, which offers several shimmer shades. For some extra pizzazz– and to help make your eyes look wide awake– pop a light, shimmery shade on the inner corners of your eyes, as seen here.

  8. EYELINER LOOK #8: FLOATING CREASE LINER

    It’s giving mod and we can’t get enough. This eyeliner look features a wing and floating liner that sets it apart from your usual everyday look. Using Tattoo Studio Ink Pen, start your winged liner midway on your lashline rather than the inner corner– this allows for more space between it and the floating liner, which is more impactful. Pro tip: use a translucent powder on your lid to tamp down any grease before drawing on your floating liner– this will ensure a smooth application and budge-proof wear.

  9. EYELINER LOOK #9: SMOKEY LINER

    This look screams, “night out,” with its smudgy smokiness that can be created with Tattoo Studio Gel Pencil. And good news, because the goal is for the pigment to be smoked out, you don’t have to be too precious with application. We suggest drawing thick lines on your top and bottom lash lines and then smoking them out with a densely packed smudge brush.

  10. EYELINER LOOK #10: BLACK & WHITE LINER

    A match made in heaven. This black winged liner and white floating liner look is the perfect answer for someone who’s bored with their everyday wing and wants an easy upgrade. Unlike some other floating liner looks, we love how this one connects at the inner corner of the eye. Tattoo Studio Gel Pencil comes in both black and white and delivers a smooth finish for all-day wear.

  11. EYELINER LOOK #11: IN AND OUT LINER

    Consider it winged liner’s cooler, younger cousin. Instead of just one wing, this look has five– three on the outer corner and two on the inner corner. To get this look as crisp as it is, it requires a smooth formula and fine tip like Master Precise Liquid Eyeliner has.

  12. EYELINER LOOK #12: DOUBLE UP LINER

    At first glance, it may look like a simple winged liner, but this look has a lot more going on than what meets the eye. Not only is there a small curved wing on the outer corner, but there’s a floating hollow wing above that and a dramatic inner corner line. Keep all of your lines and wings super-defined with the fine point of Master Precise Liquid Eyeliner.

  13. EYELINER LOOK #13: GRAPHIC ARROW LINER

    It may not look like the easiest eyeliner look to achieve, but if you’re already rocking a winged liner look, this is a natural progression. Using a liner that’s long wear, waterproof, and smudge-proof is key, so we recommend Master Precise Liquid Eyeliner. The easy-to-glide formula comes in five stunning shades including cobalt blue for extra impact.
