Trustworthy Trick
When it comes to adding a bold color, even professional have their fool-proof tools to ensure everything comes out perfectly. According to celebrity MUA, Morgane Martini, she always carries these strips in her makeup kit. “My trick for a perfect graphic eyeliner is to use the
Sephora Collection Line Up Makeup Tape, $7, I place on the outside corner of the eyes to help me place the perfect flick.” It’s important to note that the tape forumla is hypoallergenic, making it ideal for all skin types.
First Things First
Before going for the gold, the makeup guru begins with the basics. “I use
Marc Jacobs Beauty Highliner Gel Eye Crayon in Blacquer, $26, and starting with the inner corner of the eye, I draw the thinnest line possible and gradually make it thicker towards the outer corner going over the tape. This allows me to have extra sharpness once I remove the tape,” said Bella’s makeup artist. The luxe gel liner guarantees to last up to 12 hours and applies with a shimmer or matte finish.
Crealine H2O from Bioderma
To guarantee her clients walk away with a killer graphic liner look, the Marc Jacobs Beauty Global Ambassador tidies up the lids with micellar water. “I love to use small Q-tips from Muji that I dip in
Crealine H2O from Bioderma, $15 and use them to perfect the line” explained Morgane.
Play Time
Now its time for the fun part! To create the striking kaleidoscopic effect, she grabs a rainbow-insipred crayon from the Marc Jacobs Beauty Highliner Gel eye collection. “One of my favorite shades to use for a bold liner is
Marc Jacobs Beauty Highliner Matte Gel Eye Crayon in Out Of The Blue, $26. This matte cobalt blue shade works with literally everybody – every skin tone and every eye color. It’s a great way to incorporate color in your makeup without it being too much. The simplicity of an eyeliner with the pop of color is the perfect combination for spring and summer.”
