3 Ways I use Coloured Eye Pencils

Ok, I've been a really lame-o and haven't posted in two days! I SORRY! *sobs* I have two posts today, so I hope that makes up for it!
Being an eye makeup junkie, I tend to hoard a lot of colour eye pencils. I.e. any colour but black.. The problem is, I barely ever use them as eye pencils, I usually end up using them as bases for eyeshadows and use my black pencil as liner.
So I decided recently that I would use them more as liners... But I nun wanna give up my black pencil! ;n;
So, like every Indian I "adjust" and follow the middle path. So, here is what I do:


Today's post was brought you by Bourjois Clubbing eye pencil in "Blue Remix." (Not really, I just used the colour in all my looks. :P)

1. Over the black winged liner:


This is a very simple look, I'm sure most of you use too! I just draw a thick blue winged liner and cover the lower half of it with black liner. I find that colour pencils unless they are very dark don't give the kind of definition black does. So this is a good way around it. :)

2. Giving the black dimension:


 find that when I place the blue in the center of the lower and upper lash line, and use black at the sides, it gives it an amazing 3d effect! What do you think?

3. A touch of colour:

This method is really easy! I still managed to mess it up here though! -____- I use this when I'm in a hurry but still want some colour on my eyes. I outline my eyes in black and just on the inner corners put a touch of the coloured liner.

Hope you enjoyed my 3 ways to coloured liners! How do you like to wear coloured liners? Do you feel they don't define your eyes as much as black?

Speaking of eyes, I am now an affiliate with UNIQSO, a super nice circle lens store! I've always wanted to try circle lenses! Hopefully I will soon. :D
