Eyeliner defines the shape of the eyes and also highlights them. If applied correctly, eyeliners give the illusion of thick and longer eye lashes. Similarly eyeliner pencil gives a clear finishing and is easy to use. Eyeliner pencils are the best if you want a smudged eye makeup.
Eyeliner pencil is easy to apply and doesn't require time. It comes in various colors and smudges over the eyes. The most commonly applied eyeliner pencil colors are peacock green, aqua blue, violet, blonde, gold and silver. The basic evergreen eyeliner pencils are black, white, green, blue and brown.
Apply eyeliner pencil over the upper eyelid. Even lower eyelids can have thin line but it is advised not to apply in both upper and lower eyelids. Thick pencil line over the upper eyelid looks stylish and goes well with the makeup. Moreover, you don't need to work on eye makeup if you apply pencil.
To apply eyeliner pencil, first put some powder or compact to avoid over-smudging of the liner. Now stretch the eyelid and draw a line. You can make thin or thick line depending on the dress, occasion and face cutting. If you are going for office or with friends, apply thin payer to look simple yet stylish. For parties, apply thick line of attractive eyeliner pencil colors and use black eye shadow to get the dirty eye makeup look.
You can even apply eyeliner pencil in between the lashes to cover the white line. Pull up the upper eyelid and draw a thin line of the chosen eyeliner pencil color and see the difference in the eye makeup.
To create more attractive and finished eye makeup, don't forget to apply mascara over the lashes. Mascaras also come in array of colors like green blue, brown and gold. You can also cover the upper eyelid with eye shadows for a night out.
Before you apply the eyeliner pencil, sharpen it with clean sharpeners to avoid getting infections. Prefer hygienic eyeliner pencils which are hygienic as eyes are sensitive and easily get infected by low eye quality products. Don't forget to remove eye makeup. It ensures clear skin and prevents it from getting infected with cosmetic products.
Apply eyeliner pencils and make the eyes look beautiful and elegant.
- Make sure you are honestly aware of your body type. Overweight women tend to fall into two broad categories:
- Pears: A neat waist and good bust with heavy hips and legs.
- Apples: A heavier stomach and upper body, with slender leg.

Do not settle for less than fashionable clothes. Yes, it is harder to dress in the latest styles when designers base their designs around scrawny models. However, many designers are now taking plus-sized women into account.3
Find well-fitting underwear. It is almost impossible - whatever your size - to look good with unsupportive and flimsy underwear. It is imperative to wear low-legged high-waisted knickers in a firm supportive cotton. This can reduce your bulk by a good two to three inches, and make sure that no unsightly wobbling can be seen underneath your clothes. Bridget Jones knew what she was talking about!4
Wear a bra that will hoist the bust up far enough to leave a long midriff - often a bad bra allows the bust to 'seep' into the stomach, making it look as if you're one shapeless lump.5
Get several pairs of opaque tights. They smooth out the line from the waist to the knee, and ensure there's no chafing if you're rushing around in the warm.6
Choose your bottom half.- Pears should avoid trousers unless they are doing the gardening, and favour calf-length skirts, either A-line or gathered to a dropped waistband. Pears should avoid full-length skirts, which carry the broadness of the hips right down to the floor, and give the impression of a walking door.
- Apples should wear a nicely-tailored pair of trousers (without pleats at the waistband, which add bulk to the stomach), well-fitting jeans, or pencil skirts that fall to just below the knee.

Choose your top half.- Pears should wear a top that reaches far enough down the body not to ride up when the arms are raised, and that fit well to display a small waist. A cardigan with one or two buttons done up over a pretty vest, a fitted shirt, or a snug jersey top with a deep V neck all look fabulous with a calf-length skirt.
- Apples should wear some of the beautiful smocks and tunics that are in fashion at the moment. The gorgeous colours and swathes of fabric do a marvellous job of covering up any rolls or bulk around the stomach area, and leave slender legs looking even better in snug jeans, trousers, or sturdy leggings.

Add accessories and shoes. There is no excuse for an overweight woman not to have a wardrobe full of the most beautiful and unusual accessories around. Very slim women are often swamped by some of the most extravagant jewelry that look wonderful on bigger women. The fashion for large chunky beads is useful - you should avoid delicate diamond jewellery. Not only is it naff, it will be entirely lost on you. A big bag can make you look smaller, simply by not appearing tiny next to your bottom. 2 or 3 chunky bangles will make a plump wrist appear slender. Wearing long dangly earrings will elongate the neck.- Pears should have a supply of boots - Evans is the best shop for wide-fitting calves. A good pair of boots makes wearing a skirts a positive joy.
- Apples can wear kitten heels or stilettos. Pears, with their heavy legs and ankles, should avoid at all costs: it merely looks as if you are about to fall over, or sink into the floor. A wedge heel, on the other hand, looks marvellous, however stout your legs are.

Sit down in front of the mirror. Many overweight women simply do not realise that what looks good standing up is disastrous sitting down. Does your skirt ride up and show a lumpy thigh? Can you wave to a friend across the room without straining at your sleeve? If there is the least chance that you will feel uncomfortable, find an alternative: there's nothing worse than the suspicion that any sudden movements will split your seams.
