6 Creative Ways to Use White Eyeliner: A Must-Have for Your Makeup Bag
I am so excited to announce the return of our White EyeSense Eyeliner Pencil, now a permanent part of the SeneGence collection! If you haven’t tried our eyeliner pencils, boy, are you missing out! Our pencils are highly pigmented, waterproof, and glide on for all-day wear. Plus, no smudging or feathering, which, if you know, you know, how annoying that can be throughout the day.
Now, we all know why you want to try our eyeliner pencils in general. Let’s chat more about how white is a versatile color and can be used in so many creative ways to enhance your makeup routine. I think most professional women see this and assume it’s not necessarily a color they will use, but I simply couldn’t wait to share with you all the many ways it can be worn!
Here are six innovative ways to incorporate white eyeliner into your everyday beauty routine:
1. Classic Eyeliner or Waterline Brightener
White eyeliner isn't just for dramatic costume looks; it can be a game-changer in your everyday makeup routine. You can opt for a bold, graphic look by applying it as a striking winged liner on your upper lash line. However, most will do best by using white eyeliner on your waterline as it will make your eyes appear larger and more awake. This technique not only brightens your eyes but also adds a unique twist to your usual eyeliner style.
2. Inner Corner Highlighter
Highlighting the inner corners of your eyes is a quick and effective way to make your eyes pop. You usually see me do this with a ShadowSense color or Glowify eyeshadow stick, but white eyeliner does the trick as well! Dot a bit of white eyeliner in the inner corners to create a bright, wide-awake look. This trick is especially useful after a late night or when you need an extra boost of radiance. It’s a subtle yet impactful way to enhance your eyes and make them look more open.
3. Under Brow Bone Highlighter
Achieve an instant “brow lift” by applying white eyeliner under and above the edges of your brow bone. This technique helps define your eyebrows, giving them a more polished and lifted appearance. Simply draw a thin line under your brows and blend it out with your finger or a small brush. This will emphasize your arch, giving you a more youthful and refreshed look.
4. Cupid’s Bow Highlighter or Lip Enhancer
Enhance the shape of your lips by highlighting your cupid’s bow with white eyeliner. Apply a small amount of white eyeliner to the center of your upper lip’s cupid’s bow and blend it out gently. This creates the illusion of fuller, more defined lips and adds a touch of elegance to any lip color you choose to wear. It’s a quick trick that makes a big difference in your overall look. You can also use the eyeliner around the outer edges of your lips and blend it out for a plump, defined pout.
5. Substitute Primer on the Go or Eyeshadow Base
In a pinch, white eyeliner can double as a primer. If you’re out and about and need a quick touch-up, use white eyeliner as a base for your eyeshadow. This not only helps the color to stand out more but also ensures it stays in place throughout the day. Apply it over your lids, blend it out, and layer your eyeshadow on top for a long-lasting finish. Also, the white shade on your eyelids will intensify any eyeshadow pigments you use, making them more vibrant.
6. Reverse Contour or Highlighting
For a unique highlighting effect, use white eyeliner along with your regular contour products. Apply it to the high points of your face—such as the bridge of your nose, the center of your forehead, and the tops of your cheekbones—before blending your contour. This technique highlights these areas, creating a more sculpted look.
As you can see, the White EyeSense Eyeliner Pencil is more than just an eyeliner—it’s a multi-functional makeup tool that can elevate your makeup game in numerous ways. Whether you're going for a natural look or something more dramatic, this product is a must-have in your makeup bag. Try out these tips and see how a touch of white can transform your beauty routine!
