Answer 1

Well...So called "emo" style eyeliner..

Black, probably a pencil for you, Alright..Line all the way around, -very- thinly. Too much on your bottom lid will actually make your eyes look smaller. When you have your thin line all the way around, thicken the top line from about 1/4 of your eyelength over from your tear duct to the end of your eye. Add more to the end of your eyes, concentrating more on the top lid. Feel free to thicken the bottom at the very end of your eye so it flows better. Blend it with a qtip or something to make sure theres no weird square lines..."Emo" makeup style can also have alot of color..A good one is fire to blood red, powder and a small brush(or qtip! what useful little things..) should look great along side the black liner. Just kind of smudge the lines a bit so theyre not so rigid.

Answer 2

Use index finger to hold the skin below your eye, hold the skin at the outer corner of your eye, stretch using your index finger to slightly pull your skin (not down, across, we dont want to encourage wrinkles) so that you may see the line above your bottom eyelash.

Apply the eyeliner on the lip of the skin surrounding the eye (right above where the lashes begin to grow)...Do the same pulling of the skin procedure with your index, to the top of your eye lid while your eyes are closed. This procedure will allow the pencil to move smoothly over the skin. Apply the liner right above where the lashes begin to grow.

Using White or any pale color eyeliner under your eye will make your eyes look bigger. If you want to funky up your look and make your face look a little less refined, you can apply the liner on the skin under the eye, below where the lashes grow. Get a sponge, or you can use your finger and smudge. You can also use color eyeshadow (Just a little) to get the same effect. You can use this technique while still applying eyeliner under the eye on the lip of the skin..

Answer 3

well i havent seen that episode or at least i dont recall but i can give you some great tips on the general emo look

tip one liquid liner takes precision and if you dont have a steady hand dont bother

tip two wetting a liner brush and dipping it into black eyeshadow is the best way to go

start by wetting the brush and dipping it into the eyeshadow start on the bottom lash line from corner to a little bit past the outside corner of your eye dont try to get the line very skinny because the basic element of an emo look is to make it look dark and edgey blend it a little with your finger for a shadowy look

on the top start with applying a lot of eyeshadow with the damp eyeliner brush to the lash line this part doesnt need to be neat. now without dipping the brush back in use the brush and work the eyeshadow up half way to the crease and at the end of your eye meet the line with the lower lash line and continue out
