I had always been told that the tightened was the fleshy part of the eye. I overproduce tears, so it always smudged so I just didn't bother with it. This has just made my life so much easier! Thank you, Smitha!

[@SmithaDepak]

you're very welcome ❣

[@JazziluluTV]

Nice 😊 Very Useful ❤

[@Alberto-wu1mj]

I have the same problem in that my eyes water a lot so anything that helps with smudging is great.

[@jacquelinehulstein9091]

Tanks I always did it wrong, now I Know how to do it!

[@rosana8697]

Me too. Never knew this. Can't wait to try🎉🎉

[@fruzsinaiaconis1138]

Well, Smitha, you seem to be the first person who actually pointed out how tightlining should be done. Thank you! ❤ I'm forever grateful! 😊

[@NabilaFarheen]

I was having watery eyes everytime I tried to do the " Tight line" as I was doing it in a wrong way. Thank you so much, Smitha for helping me and others out. You are an amazing person❤

[@ryrify]

So um, how is it that you are the only artist who has ever made a video this clear and helpful about the most annoying makeup issue!!! I am so excited to try this!!!

[@andreajane]

Brava Smitha! This is such an important video. You have perfectly defined what tightlining really is. I am so glad that you did this because lining the fleshy part of the upper eyelid (i.e. waterline) is really not the best thing to do for the health of our eyes. Your demonstration was excellent and so easy to follow. I love the look that you created. I would appreciate knowing which brush you used to connect the wing to the upper lashline. Also appreciate your explanation about the brush for the Fenty mascara. You create the most stunning and tasteful looks. Thank you!

[@netjacqueline]

I’ve been doing this wrong my whole life 🥴 This is the first time I’m seeing how it should be done. Thanks for the tutorial ❤

[@sitalakshmithampatty-yl3de]

For years now, by first half of the day, I’ve been walking around with smudged liner looking like I got punched in my eye. I had to try this today morning itself! It’s been half day already, and I’m not looking like a zombie! Can’t thank you enough Smitha!

[@carefulshopper4239]

Thank you, Smitha❣️ I’m over 70 and have been trying to tight line wrong for decades, although I do it rarely since it irritates my eyes. Every video you do teaches me something, but this one will really help!

[@foxymama2003]

Thank you for showing exact placement for tight lining! I have always struggled with transfer due to lining the flesh portion and I lined the lash portion while watching this video and it worked beautifully!!!

[@chelym4094]

THANK YOU! I have never once been able to repeat this look without it transferring onto my lower lid and lashes and now I know why!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

[@LadyBugParkHD]

WOW! I just kept thinking I was choosing the wrong eyeliners. THIS makes so much sense. TY Smitha for showing us the proper technique❤

[@druidriley3163]

Same! I have a dozen eyeliners in my makeup kit at home thinking none of them work. I bet if I try this method, they all will!

[@LadyBugParkHD]

@@druidriley3163 I tried 2 different ones with this method and even the SUPER cheap one from my local $1 store stayed on for HOURS!

[@druidriley3163]

@@LadyBugParkHD Yay!

[@trae4529]

THE MOST helpful makeup tip I’ve seen in forever--thank you!!!!

[@mariabutler4250]

Smitha, thank you, thank you, thank you! I always end up with the transfer on my lower line! But thanks to you is not going to happen anymore! ❤

[@SmithaDepak]

💓😍❣

[@Bond.girl.007]

Literally the best tutorial I have ever seen for tightlining, especially for hooded eyes. ❤ you for this! I'm buying this pencil asap. Thank you a million times over, Smitha!

[@jaynecoin9805]

Two weeks ago, you had a series on watery or sensitive eyes . I want to thank you for suggesting the eye shadows and the mascara. I have tried them and it works wonderfully. I can't thank you enough !❤

[@donnajones7757]

Wow at 71 yrs old I have been doing it all wrong...thank you Smitha, for setting me straight❤

[@donnaengel6413]

I learn something new and adjust my makeup application accordingly. You’ve helped me so much with hooded eye techniques! You’re such a wonderful teacher and gorgeous woman! You’re a lovely soul and very much appreciated. ❤

[@riffraff0607]

Beautiful! Thanks for always making things easier & using easy to find, affordable products

[@harmangarcharana]

The one Kajal pencil that I absolutely fell in love with is that Kay beauty waterproof 24hr Kajal. It retails for just ₹299/- and it doesn’t transfer, doesn’t smudge & stays put. It doesn’t transfer on your lower lash line when you tight line your upper lashline

[@monicagentile4878]

LOVE IT!!!!! YOU'RE GREAT and I'll tell you why. You are so clear and you explain game-changer tips! Nowadays influencers just create adv contents, even if they deny or cover this fact! It's annoying! You are a true, RARE, teacher. ❤

[@amritaroy4237]

Very useful advice for sensitive eyes...thank you Smitha.

[@marlenerobinson7684]

Dear Smitha. Thanks for this great tip. I had the same problem with smudging. I found that when I'm applying waterproof mascaras I cover the upper waterline and with this I have no problem. However I will try your system also for the lower waterline. Thanks again ❤

[@catherinegreer854]

Makeup artist for Laura Mercier was the first to "tightline" my eyes. I had never heard of it before..I was 23 years old , LOL. She put it on the flesh part of my eye and that's how I have done it ever since. I love your technique!!! Converted. Wonder what other makeup advice, I have gotten and still get that isn't accurate?? I am 51 yrs now. 😂😂

[@happy_ducky_wash508]

This is the best demonstration of how to apply eyeliner I’ve ever seen. Thank you so much!! ❤

[@marlenerobinson7684]

Hallo Smitha. I tried your tip today and it was absolutely great. No smudging no tearing up. THANKS AGAIN SWEETY.

[@angelblosser2328]

Finally someone has given me exactly what I’ve been looking for!!! Thank you!!! I’ve suffered for years with transfer or the liner just washing into my inner corner causing irritation and just stopped doing it.

[@moni925]

Thank you for lifting your lid to show us! This video is exactly what I needed to see. I too have been doing it wrong all this time. Can't wait to try this tomorrow morning. Thank you so much

[@kathykat7308]

I was definitely doing it wrong. It looks so pretty this way. Thanks for showing us!

[@Marykguise]

This was an excellent video and I’m so excited to try your tips. I was tightlining incorrectly and it always bothered my eyes. I’ve also been wanting to learn to do a subtle wing and this is perfect!! Thank you so much!!

[@irenaimpric6804]

I tried it IMMEDIATELY and it works like a charm!!! Wow, so simple but so effective. Thank you!

[@ErikaLeung]

Wow! Who knew what a difference this could make! I cannot wait to try it today!! Thank you, Smitha! I hope it works!

[@faithfulgrl]

I've gotten away from watching make-up videos. You pop up occasionally. EVERYTIME I see you, you are so kind. Absolutely kind, to everyone. I'd love to do our make-up then go to lunch with the girls. You feel like a friend. Thanks for the love!💄

[@cristyglagola2448]

Wow-I’ve been doing it wrong all this time and walking around with two black eyes for no reason! Thank you so much for this!!

[@ravinderkaur7586]

I love the way you describe each and every little details. ❤️

[@cherrymetha3185]

Thank you Smtha , I needed this ! ❤ I’ve always used Kohl pencil in my waterline. As you know Kohl was invented in India and used in the waterline . The original Kohl was made at home to cool the eyes . How do you use eyeshadow as an eyeliner and making sure it doesn’t smudge and you don’t get ‘Panda eyes’ ? ✨💖✨💚✨

[@dinahtabbah1990]

Hi Smitha! I’m so excited to put this technique into action. I too am a hooded eye girl and often times feel frustrated with eyeliner and eyeshadow application. My question to you is: Does the same rule apply when using a nude or white eyeliner to tightline? If so, how do we avoid getting product smudged in our lower lashes? As always, I appreciate you!

[@elisaastorino2881]

This is the first time that I really understood tightlining - and why my few attempts never worked. I always liked that look because it's especially good for us dark eyed ladies, so I'm going to try again. Thanks!

[@indrajagdeo2345]

Thanks smitha it's nt just the finished look u really are the queen of technique

[@bernerandgoldenmom7143]

Brilliant!! I have never been able to make the wing with my hooded lids, but thanks to this tutorial, I think it will work for me! Thank you! I can't wait to try it! 💖

[@seshadridutta4128]

You are the true artist...You make every video so clear❤️🥺

[@qmetairiej.9392]

Yes, I have been lining on the flesh. Thank you Smitha! I learn something new everyday.

[@dawanndarodgers-coley1761]

Smitha I have been waiting for you to explain what tight lining is. This is a beautiful tutorial. Thank you so much , I am a fairly new prescriber , so some of the techniques or names I don't understand but this one was on point . I enjoy you and you're very pretty.

[@FranziAliasLaLu]

You are my hero! I always thought: What am I doing wroooong!?! Everything smudged all the way around my eyes. I will try this technique tomorrow ❤

[@maviscarr1859]

I was today’s years old when I learned of this brilliant tip! My eyes get very watery when I use the old method of putting eyeliner on the waterline, which never seemed safe to me anyway. Many thanks for the lesson that I can’t wait to try first thing in the morning.

[@carlacorsini7766]

Omg thank you for these life-changing tips. I was never able to tightline die to the transfer which closed down my eyes and totally defeated the purpose!!

I have never subscribed to anyone faster... Great tutorial!! Thank you!

[@sarahhearns780]

This is so clever and brilliant. I have been tightening on my waterline. Gonna do this tomorrow. Thank you.

[@mrs.christiehannaalexander33]

😲 OMG! Smitha, I can not thank you enough for all the ABSOLUTELY AMAZING & TERRIFIC ADVICE ❤! I have been doing my liner wrong, for too many to really admit...LOL. I just thought the irritation, watery eyes & transferring was something only I had to deal with, something I was doing wrong & was just going to have to deal with😢. But, now you, yet again, shown me the light 😊! 1st it was the mascara tip with the tips 1st & now this 🤯. I can not wait to try this new tip out tomorrow when I am applying my makeup 🥳! Thank you, thank you so very much!

[@athenap4297]

This video was soooo unbelievably helpful! Thank you so much! And as a whole I find your content extremely helpful for novice makeup wearers like me. ❤❤

Wow! I was doing the water line for months and months! Thanks so much Smitha you are amazing 💗

[@catherineholland5844]

Thanks for this, I usually do top waterline and it rubs off. So I'll definitely try this now! When you did bottom line though it looked like waterline again, which you said it wasnt. I'm going to have to practice!

[@teresaayer7239]

Thank you! I have been waiting for someone to show me how this is done

[@vishakhamishra8088]

Thank you so so much for this! I always wanted to do doe eyes with white pencil, but the kajal in my tightline used to smudge. Just a few days ago I was talking about the problem, and here you posted it! 😊😘🤗

Thank you so much 😀

[@dammar117]

Great tutorial! People confuse tightlining with upper waterlining. Two different things. I see so many youtubers claiming to be tightlining while running the pencil on their upper waterline.

[@mdsaidul298]

your all videos help me so much❤

[@LadyJ84]

Awesome video!!! I’ve been tight lining on the flesh. Never again after seeing this!!! Thank you!!❤️

[@lynettewalsh4918]

I have always tightlined in the flesh part of the eye. When it smudged and transferred I always thought it was because of the pencil I was using. Thanks for pointing that out.

[@lamemechose7072]

I’ve never been able to tightline and still wear contacts. This is super frustrating because anything worth tightlining for is much fancier than than my wear contacts threshold. Apparently I’ve been tightlining wrong this whole time! 🤦‍♀️ Thank you for making this finally click for me. You earned a new subscriber!

[@alieninthewindow5566]

Thank you so much, showing how to properly tight line I really appreciate it, now my eyeliner won't run 💜

🙏 thank you for explaining tight lining. I have been trying to figure this out for a year 😮❤ and, the wing tip!

[@carrieannlake8907]

Beautiful! Yes I do tightline on the flesh part..... because I thought that was the "right way" I'm going to try your way. I have hooded & crepey eyelines due to my age which is 52. Any type of wing, extended eyeliner style is a real struggle.
