Eyeliners are an essential part of eye makeup and can completely transform your look. From subtle lines to more graphic designs, eyeliners offer a wide variety of options to enhance the shape and size of the eyes, as well as to express personal creativity.
Fine liner: This consists of drawing a thin, fine line from one end to the other and as close to the lashes as possible, with a short tail, creating a defined and polished effect that goes with any type of eye or any makeup look..

Cat eyeliner (cat eye): Cat eyeliner is characterized by an elongated line that curves upward at the end of the eye, mimicking the shape of a feline's eyes, it is a little thicker than thin eyeliner and goes well with almond-shaped eyes and eyes with a good eyelid. It is ideal for lifting and enlarging the eyes, creating a seductive and sophisticated look.

Pin up eyeliner: The Pin Up eyeliner is made by lining near the lash line and we make a tail that is not so long, the beginning of the eyeliner does not start from the tear but a little further back so it is very favorable for separated eyes.

Diamond eyeliner: It goes well with overcast eyelids and the idea is to draw a diagonal line from the corner of the eye and connect it to the crease of the eye and from there a diagonal line towards the lash line.

Smokey liner: This style involves softly smudging eyeliner along the lash line to create a smoky, smudged effect. It can be smudged with brown so that it starts with black, dark brown and light brown. It goes on all eye types or large eyes. It is an ideal choice for soft and natural looks, and can easily be intensified for a more dramatic look.

Greek liner: Line the upper eyelid with a thin line extending outward, similar to the "cat eye" style. Continue this line from the end to the middle of the lower eyelid. You can gently blend with a brush and use liquid eyeliner on top and pencil on the bottom for a flawless finish. It is perfect for small eyes leaving the waterline without product or with beige, gold or white pencil.

Egyptian eyeliner: The Egyptian eyeliner is a cat eyeliner complemented with an eyeliner on the lower waterline with black pencil and smudge it to have a better finish, we also outline the tear which will make the eyes look closer together, it goes well for big or separated eyes.

Graphic eyeliner: Graphic eyeliner involves creating geometric and abstract designs in the eye area using clean, precise lines. It can include shapes such as triangles, squares, diagonal lines or dot patterns, and offers endless possibilities for creative experimentation.
