2. I think if you have green eyes go for deep purple. If you have hazel eyes go for olive color. If you have blue eyes go for copper color and so on. You can try out them before buying.

3. Always start with a pencil liner if you are new to lining your eyes. You don’t want to mess up the entire eye in an attempt to use a color liner

4. Keep the rest of the makeup very simple and natural. You already have statement eyes so if you make anything prominent on the face the entire look will be tacky.

5. If you are wearing a very bright colored sparkly liner make sure you wear it dark and you wear it for night. This will give a great effect and will not at all look out of place.

6. Keep the eye shadow muted and just a small wash when you are wearing a colored liner. You don’t want to look like a peacock with different colors on your eyes. Always go for skin colored to a slightly more brown toned color. This will defiantly define the eyes and bring out the eyeliner as well.

7. First line your eye with a black pencil and then move the liner on top of it. This will bring in the darkness and intensity from the colored liner and will look more defined and beautiful.

8. Once you get comfortable with the colored liners you can go for dual tones. You can take any two complementing tones and then layer one liner above the other. This will give a more dramatic effect to the eyes

9. You can also use colored mascara along with a colored liner. If applied in complementing colors it looks very pleasing and sensual

10. If you want to experiment more with the colored liner but don’t have enough colors then always go for cream eye shadow. Dab a damp angular brush onto a cream eye shadow and make a precision line on the eyes near the lashes. This technique works really well. For it to stay longer you can always use a primer on your eyes.

An eyeliner can transform the look of your eyes completely. Even if you have small eyes, adding a stroke of eyeliner can make them appear bold and beautiful. However, most people are not aware that these eyeliners come in many tones other than black. These colored eyeliners can give you a dramatic effect without having to use extra eye makeup. They can just add a subtle pop of color on your eyes minus the gaudiness of eye shadows. With a number of shades available in the market, you can choose a eyeliner that suits your eye color and of course, matches with your outfit!
