Why You Should Use a Nude or White Eyeliner

Create the illusion of bigger, brighter looking eyes with a nude or white eyeliner. Our how-to guide shows how to achieve this finish for a wide-eyed effect.

Using a light-colored eyeliner is a fool-proof way of helping to create the illusion of wider looking eyes. Using white eyeliner to widen the look of your eyes is a beauty secret that artists have used for years, but we’re going one step further and exploring how nude eyeliner can be used interchangeably with white eyeliner.

Nude eyeliner is a more natural-looking alternative to white eyeliner, creating a softer, sophisticated finish. This guide will help you learn how to use white and nude eyeliner to make your eyes appear bigger and wider for a gorgeous doll-like gaze.

APPLY WHITE OR NUDE EYELINER TO YOUR WATERLINE OR LOWER LASH LINE

Of course, there is the classic use for a nude eyeliner: applying it in your waterline or lower lash line. Do this after completing your eye makeup look, so you can see how much you need. Take your nude eyeliner and trace your lower waterline or lash line. By doing this, the whites of your eyes will appear slightly extended, therefore creating a magical, wider-looking gaze to everyone you meet!

Charlotte recommends her Rock N Kohl eyeliner in Eye Cheat; her ultimate nude eyeliner to be worn along your lower lash line. This kohl eyeliner is in a universal nude tone that can be used for EVERYONE’S eyes to make them POP!

Multi-Tasking Eyeliner

The wonderful thing about using a light-coloured eyeliner is the versatility that it offers. Using on your waterline will create the illusion of a more wide-awake, brighter looking eye, but it’s also fabulous for other uses. Trace a faint line on your Cupid’s Bow to emphasise your pout before applying a little highlighter. This will help to define the look of your lips for a truly kissable pout.
