"Alright, there are a couple kinds of eyeliner brushes. First, I'm going to start with a very thin eyeliner brush, which I'm going to use on the upper lid with a gel eyeliner. I have a palette of gel eyeliners. I'm going to use black for this example. This brush is just going to give you a really nice, thin, clean line and if you want to ever use liquid liner, you can start with a brush like this and then go over with the liquid so you get a really clean, smooth line. So, I'm just going to lightly kind of roll it around in the gel and wipe off a little bit of the excess. Starting from the middle of the eye and just lightly working your way out. You want to keep the point right on the lash line so that there's no separation from the eyeliner and the lash line. This will give you a really nice, clean cat eye if you take it out a little bit farther. Be very dramatic and you can come back in and kind of blend into the inner corner of the lash line. Alright, so come back and I'll show you how to use another flat brush on the underneath lid."
