"Hi! I am Yvette Parrish. Thanks for joining me at Expert Village. Today I am going to show you how to apply the eyeliner, the different styles of eyeliner and how to get that pretty smoky look. There are many different eyeliners. You can use the powder form, like I am using, and most professional make-up artists like to use this form, but you can also do a pencil, a pencil is fine. You can sharpen the pencil and apply that as well. There is also liquid eyeliner that usually comes in a little tube like this, and you will have a little wand on it and you can apply like that. Any time you use a liquid liner, it is going to be more dramatic. So I want the smoothness of a liquid for her, for my model; I just do not want the drama of it. So that is why I chose a powder, because I like the smoothness. I just did not want a big black shiny line, but if you are going out in the evening and you have a dramatic date and a night out, the liquid liner is beautiful for that.
