victory is ours!
There I was, doop-da-doo, sitting in front of my mirror with a purple eyeliner in my paws…
You know the type — a really fun, cute shade, but one that takes a bit of babying, because you have to apply a few layers to build up the color.

Most of the time, I don’t mind having to put in the extra labor, but you know me — always trying to find appeal shortcuts.
“Hmm,” I thought. “There’s gotta be a quicker way…”
I swiftly rifled through my makeup bag until I found my favorite black liner du jour, urban Decay’s 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Perversion.

And just then, I got an idea…
DING-DING-DING-DING-DING! We have a winner. (I’m wearing MAC fixed on drama Lipstick from the retro Matte collection, by the way.)
I peered down at Tabs, who was chillin’ in a sunny spot next to my desk. “Tabs, what if I layer this purple liner [which I held in one hand] on top of UD Perversion [which I held in the other]?”
He shrugged.
“I bet that’ll really make the purple pop. If layering a black base underneath a colorful eyeshadow amplifies that color, it must work the same way for liners, right?”
Lazily, Tabs blinked twice and looked away, which normally means, “If you’re not going to feed me, woman, just leave me to my thoughts.”
“Mmm… Gravy.”
I sighed… never attempt to have a severe conversation about makeup with a cat. They will always steer the discussion to either lurvies or food.
Despite Tabs’ noncommittal response, I right away lined my water lines with Perversion, then layered my bright purple liner on top.
It absolutely worked! The purple popped. It looked richer, and I didn’t have to spend hella years building it up in layers to reach the level of intensity I wanted.
Since then, I’ve tried this technique with other liner colors, layering lots of different shades on top of black, and it works like a charm. It really works wonders on jewel-toned shades of blue, green, gold and burgundy.
Oh, and you can even do something similar with white eyeliner. Layer any colorful liner on top of a white one, and the colorful shade must look brighter and a lot more vibrant.
The effect isn’t limited to water lines, either. It also works pretty terrific along lash lines, too.
Tebrikler! Çarşamba.
Mutlu çarşambalar! I’m trying to smile, but it looks a little pained because I have a dentist appointment at noon, and I’m nervous.
Just a cleaning, nothing too severe (knock on wood), but I’m none too thrilled about it anyway.
It’s those hooks, man… The hooks! They haunt my dreams…
