More than once a misplaced spot of lash glue has spoiled my carefully created eye makeup look, so the idea of combining magnetic eyeliner with magnetic lashes is highly appealing. If you’ve ever experienced the struggle of getting your lash glue just right, this might be your solution too.
Magnetic eyeliner contains iron oxide making it easier to attach magnetic lashes. Apply magnetic eyeliner in the same way as you apply liquid eyeliner, ensuring it is properly dry before attaching lashes. Make sure that your line of magnetic eyeliner is thick enough to attach your magnetic lashes.
Let’s take a closer look at what magnetic eyeliner is and exactly how to use it.
What Is Magnetic Eyeliner
As the name suggests, magnetic eyeliner is an eyeliner that is magnetic. It usually comes in the form of liquid eyeliner that contains iron oxide in order to give the eyeliner its magnetic capability.
Previously we’d need to apply a magnetic strip to either side of our lash fringe to give our magnetic lashes something to adhere to. The trouble with these magnetic strips was the potential damage to our lashes.
Magnetic eyeliner solves that problem as well as looking more natural and precise as you apply it in exactly the same way as you have always applied liquid eyeliner.
How To Use Magnetic Eyeliner To Apply Magnetic Lashes
Are you ready to learn how to put your new magnetic eyeliner to good use? It is a really simple process. Take a look.
Line Your Eyes Just As You Would With Liquid Eyeliner
As you may have already guessed, you begin by lining your upper lash line with your magnetic liner.
You apply it exactly as you would normal liquid eyeliner, using short, feathered strokes to create a precise line. Just ensure that the line is thick enough to serve as a solid base for your magnetic lashes to adhere to while still being as close to your lash line as possible.
You can even wing your eyeliner out if you’d like, it won’t affect your magnetic lashes. Just give your eyeliner enough time to properly dry before moving on to the next step.
Apply Your Magnetic Lashes
The time has come to apply your magnetic lashes. Begin by taking each magnetic lash strip and gently bending it so that it can better form to the shape of your eye.
Then hold the lash strip near your lash line to make sure it’s the same length as your lid. You may need to trim the lash strip to precisely fit your lid.
All that remains is to carefully line your magnetic lash up with your lash line and place it on top of the magnetic eyeliner. The magnetism will work its magic and give you instantly long, voluminous lashes without struggling with lash glue.
How To Use Magnetic Eyeliner As Part Of Your Eye Makeup Routine
I’m sure that you are already clued up on the process, but just in case, here is how to use magnetic eyeliner as part of your eye full makeup routine.
Always Start Eye Makeup With A Clean Canvass
It is vital that you make sure any traces of eye makeup are removed from your skin to give yourself a clean, fresh base to start with.
If in doubt, saturate a cotton pad with micellar water, then hold it over your eyes for a few seconds before gently wiping away any residue.
Always Use Eye Makeup Primer
As we all know, using makeup primer is a vital step when it comes to makeup application.
Using an eye makeup primer is just as important. So, grab your trusty eye makeup primer and apply it to both your lids before moving on to the next step.
Apply Your Eye Shadow
I am sure that if you’re expanding your eye makeup routine to include magnetic eyeliner and lashes, it’s safe to assume you’ll want some equally gorgeous eye shadow to complete the look.
To make things easier for yourself, consider using an eyeshadow palette that has all the complimenting shades you need in one product. Take your pick from the options in the L’Oréal Paris Colour Riche Pocket Palette Eye Shadow line (available on Amazon).
