Tightlining, often called "invisible eyeliner", is a makeup technique that enhances the eyes without creating a visible line. Instead of applying eyeliner above the lashes, the product is pressed into the roots of the upper lash line, making lashes appear thicker and eyes more defined.
The technique creates a subtle, natural look and is ideal for everyday wear. It can be worn alone for understated definition or paired with mascara and eyeshadow for added intensity.
How to tightline
- Choose a waterproof kohl or gel eyeliner with a creamy texture.
- Look down into a mirror and gently lift your upper lid to expose the base of your lashes.
- Press the liner into the lash roots, focusing on the outer two-thirds of the eye.
- Clean up any excess product with a cotton swab dipped in micellar water.
Tightlining is a simple way to create fuller-looking lashes and brighter, more defined eyes while keeping makeup soft and natural.
