While there are a zillion eyeliner styles out there to have fun with, it's not every day that you're in the mood for winging that wing or flicking that flick! There are days when you just want to take a sabbatical from your beloved kajal and eyeliner. So, how do you keep your eye makeup game going strong without these two essentials? We'll tell you how! B-town divas such as Alia Bhatt, Kareena Kapoor Khan and Ananya Panday are team minimalist (most times) and seldom wear any kajal or eyeliner! However, they still manage to slay every time they step out. How, you ask? Here are five fool-proof hacks to make your eyes pop, without making you look sick or tired...
01Tight line
If you're not in the mood for eyeliner, then just go for an "invisible eyeliner". This backstage trend is the secret to slaying any eye makeup look. Tight lining is to line the upper waterline to create a fuller, wide-eyed look. This technique also creates an illusion of dark, dense lash roots.
02Brighten up the inner corners
Highlighting the inner corners of your eyes can make your eyes look more awake. Either reach for a highlighter or a nude shimmering eye shadow to highlight the inner corner of your eyes as well as your brow bone. We suggest you get your hands on the **Lakmé 9 To 5 Eye Quartet Eyeshadow - Desert Rose ** and highlight the inner corner of your eyes to make them appear bigger and brighter.
03Nail that cut crease
Fill in a warm eye shadow hue into the crease of your eyes with the help of a fluffy brush. Sweep the brush from the outer corner to the inner corner of your eyes in a windshield wiper motion. This fool-proof technique is sure to make your eyes pop instantly.
04Add drama to your lashes
Dramatic lashes can take your eye makeup game to an all-new level. If you want to make your eyes appear bigger and more awake, go all out with your eyelashes. Curl them, prime them and add double coats of mascara to add volume to your lashes. Try the Lakmé Eyeconic Curling Mascara for intensely curled lashes.
05Fuller brows for the win
Fuller, arched brows can help frame your eyes and face. Groom your eyebrows by tweezing or threading regularly and to fill in the strays, reach out for the Lakmé Absolute Precision Eye Artist Eyebrow Pencil - Dark Brown . This will give you evenly, defined brows. Image courtesy: Pinterest and Instagram
