Tightlining your eyes (also known as "invisible eye liner") is a great
way to add subtle definition to your peepers. Most people think that
the point of tightlining is to make your eyes look bigger, but according
to Los Angeles-based makeup artist, Jason Sanchez
“it’s to make your eyelashes appear thicker and fuller.” Instead of
lining the skin above your lashes, you line the inside of the upper lash
line and in between the roots of the lashes. As you can see in the
picture below, filling in the inside of the lash line really creates an
illusion of fuller lashes, more so than just with a mascara. This
technique can be used for any casual or formal occasion, and is pretty
easy to master. “For best results,” says Sanchez, “use a kohl eyeliner
because it’s specifically formulated to hold in the wet area of the
eye.” Sanchez walked us through each step, so grab an eyeliner and
follow along!

Step 1:
Using clean fingers, gently lift your lashes upward. You'll
see tiny gaps between your lash hairs, which you'll be filling in with
eyeliner.
Step 2:
Using your eyeliner (we used Inglot Cosmetics Kohl Pencil), lightly dab it in between each individual lash and get as close to the root as possible.

Step 3:
Technically you’re done, but if you’d like to intensify the
look even more, you can tightline your bottom lash line, too. Gently
lift lower lashes downwards, and fill in the gaps between each lash.
