Alex you are a gift from the gods. How is it that I have been tightlining for years and could never figure out how to fix bleeding 😐 anyway I love how to the point you keep your videos and also target very specific makeup problems that most people have, but never talk about for some reason? Youre slaying the game SLAYING

[@staceyb3007]

agreed, actually helpful! not another product review ;)

[@sxghing6402]

🤯

[@RaelNikolaidis]

[@vanessawhitneypro]

SAME SAME SAME! Thank You, Alex!

[@geminibon1]

Hi hi your great what can I do for sparse eyebrows I'm also a senior

[@ooopticnerveee]

For contact lens wearers - another reason not to line on your waterline is that the eyeliner will directly transfer as a giant blurry path on your lenses at some point and you won't be able to get it off 😂 I learned this lesson the hard way 🥲 At the root of your lashes as she shows here is truly the way!

[@m.mancarr745]

True story 🥲

[@xBoRiCuAxGiRLx]

I avoided tightlining for this reason. I am so excited to try this technique!

[@KaylaaJaee]

I was looking for THIS comment! I've learned the hard way

[@karafurr3067]

This even happens to me with mascara if my contacts are fresh out of the box

[@EndangeredHomosapien]

I FELT THIS😭

[@Filianyntix]

Tightlining is a godsend makeup technique for people with hooded or droopy eyes. I use Sephora 12h colorful eye pencil to tightline and it stays all day. Once it sets, it doesn't smudge as well. And it's really cheap even without a sale.

[@riven799]

I was really happy to discover those pencils too, they're totally underrated imo, and so many colors

[@stepherssays]

I will have to go check them out! Thank you!

[@andreanazareno3855]

Do you mean the 12 hr multi stick?

[@zoehansen_]

Ahhh fantastic! Gonna purchase thanks 🙏🏻

[@Ladybugg-1]

Thanks..will definitely check it out⭐

[@mollygriffith2185]

I never thought to NOT go by the literal line....like brushing it on the base of the lashes is genius!!!!!

[@zoehansen_]

I clicked on this so fast bc this is my issue! I literally can’t tight line no matter what waterproof liner I purchase. Thanks I’m going to try all you do. Big fan 👏👏👏

[@patibarrera2874]

Great tip!! Before I tight line I use a cotton swab and dry the tight line then add liner. It stays so much longer

[@anncarlson1396]

I just wipe it dry with a clean finger and don't blink before I get the color on there. It does help to keep it from transferring to the lower waterline. ❤

[@justprocrastinating5007]

I've been tightlining more than normal the past two weeks and this kept happening to me!! HOW are you always so timely?? Thank you!!

[@annickmarburger3904]

i just wanted to say thank you - i’ve suddenly been getting all these compliments on my makeup since i started bingeing your channel. and even without the compliments, i’m just feeling myself more. so thank you for what you do :)

[@nuriagonzalez1021]

I LOVE this extremily detail tutorials, thanks

[@JojoElven]

OMH this technique works so well! Makes my lashes look luscious, but still natural and not too overstated.

[@smac72bigz]

Alex... Shiseido has this liner with the absolute tiniest little tip. Like smaller than the little brow pencils. It's so super creamy and absolutely budge proof! You might check it out...

[@duhneez2068]

Omg what’s it called??

[@smac72bigz]

@@duhneez2068 it’s the MicroLiner Ink. The black is super black. And it doesn’t budge

[@exoinvadedmymind1006]

It doesn't seem to be for tightlining tho?

[@smac72bigz]

@@exoinvadedmymind1006 that’s exactly what I use it for. I hold my eye open and count 10 seconds for it to set and it absolutely doesn’t budge

This is gold. Went ahead and tried it immediately yesterday, worked like a charm, looked better than the tightline I used to do before, and was much more durable. Thank you very much!

[@debadritagupta6364]

Tightlining is a super power! Especially for hooded eyes, it was such a game changer for me! in India we always use Kajal/Kohl pencil, highly recommend them!

[@cinachandler6097]

But, doesn’t it smear? They are so soft.

[@miladydewinter7770]

Kajal/Kohl pencil always smears for me

[@patriciajeanne2]

this is so helpful! I thought tightlining was for that skin of the eye, but it makes so much sense that it goes on the actual lashes/lash line!1

[@ulc3r]

I watch a lot of makeup videos just for fun and less for tips because I often find tips and tricks don't work for me and I can find my own best way to work with my face. But THIS is the singular makeup tip that has been most helpful every single time I do my eye makeup now.

[@kathewright5619]

Hands down, the BEST instructive video on tight lining. Now a subscriber.

[@blkoller33]

My favorite waterproof drugstore liner is Wet N Wild “breakup proof.” The one in the packaging where it’s a self sharpening and you twist it up. Don’t confuse it with the liquid!! It BURNS

[@cinbeano]

Hiya! Did they discontinue this? I can’t find it besides the liquid one

[@duhneez2068]

@@cinbeano just found one at my target for $2.29. also thanks OP for the recommendation!!

[@bombastic-butterflyack4679]

DUUUUUDE I feel so powerful right now, like, I have NEVER been able to fill my waterline without transfer, and setting the liner there just seemed like asking for trouble from my already sensitive eyes. This worked. I might be able to regularly wear a subtle smokey eye just like I've always dreamed. THANK YOU!!!

[@d0loresh4ze11]

Dear Alex you are a lifesaver! I’ve had issues with my watery hooded eyes trying to tight line for all of my makeup wearing life. Thanks for saving me from poking myself in the waterline or having transfer. 😉

[@danabiello7421]

Alex, this video completely changed how I tightline. The GXVE eyeliner is amazing. I tried Clinique's and Urban Decay's tightlining pencils. Both flake horribly. You are the best!

[@lisaking5558]

Omgggg this is the best. I never did tightlining bc I know my inner lid would just tear up and not let me. But right at the lash line I can try!! Thank you! 🎉

[@rh3722]

This has been hands down the best tutorial on you tube! Thank you.

[@Cyllynify]

What a GREAT HACK! Tried it today and worked like a CHARM! THANK YOU!!

[@eclecticdeb4394]

Thank you so much! I ordered this pencil and FINALLY no transfer. BEST pencil I’ve ever used!

[@pinkcatto7]

This is so helpful!! I really needed this recently!

[@santiago41212]

this could not have come at a better time... you are the BEST

[@tonyad105]

Thank you! This was game changing including the product recommendation. It really works like a charm.

[@pasitheathanatosasmr488]

Gosh you’re so good at explaining things nobody explains❤

[@laceyballiet6627]

Very helpful. I wanted to start tight lining but I hear that everyone always says about the transfer. I’m sure the eye liners are a part of it but the technique makes the difference. You are the only one that has said to do it this way. I will try it. Thank you!

[@mallorymurphy2678]

I didn’t think I actually needed to know about this because I usually apply my pencil eyeliner on the inside lid part, which tickles and definitely took some time to get used to…. But, it definitely does just smear and melt down/off. I’ve never seen or heard anyone describe it like this in a way that actually makes sense too!! Thank you Alex 🎉l❤

[@The_Life]

This is amazing! I've tried this so many times just straight in with the pencil and I just end up pressing my lashes down or clump them together with a thick amount of product. This is much better

[@AngelaMartinez-fh6bk]

How is it that I never thought about this the whole time for years . Thank you ! ❤

[@nicol540]

this is perfect! I bought new liners and started using this technique

[@autumnhomer9786]

🎀OMG you are psychic! I was thinking about this yesterday and it’s the only reason I don’t right line. Thank you so much for this upload.🎀

[@TY-gj6fb]

Alex, u always know what videos to post! U r amazing!!!

[@theonlycma]

What?!!! This is so helpful, I had absolutely no idea!! Thank you!

[@cookiedarling]

I’ve been looking for a video on this. Excited to try this technique. Thanks for sharing.

[@johannaaguilar4113]

Love your makeup tips! ☺️

[@lamurphy64]

THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!!! This is the easiest and best describing how to do tutorial for this. I’m 59 and have smaller, hooded eyes and tight line is definitely best option for me but can’t seem to get it right. So excited to try now. ☺️

[@Neenerella333]

Dude. This should have occurred to me. Apparently, I needed it pointed out. Thanks so much. As someone with thick dark lashes most of my life, enhancing them has become a necessity in my 50s. I've been going straight in, but transfer has been an issue. I will look into this pencil, but I've heard good things about Melt and Marc Jacobs' pencils too.

[@lauratraceytherapy]

Very helpful! And as usual, I love your lip shade!

[@janadaneker6176]

Essence waterproof is just 2.99 I could never do this without your tutorial, really love your teaching style! ❤️

[@42t16]

This is the best explanation I've seen. TY 🙏❤️

[@snurfbee58]

This is really helpful! Tight lining is really hard for me but I haven't tried a brush before. I'll try this tomorrow, thanks!

[@elenapolshakov3837]

Omg 😭 Thank you thank you THANK YOU for this! It’s been such a struggle for me, I’m excited to try it tomorrow!

[@Sayhoun]

Thanks for explaining, as someone starting from 0 this helps a lot

[@lindasmal5051]

Can't wait to try this out! Thanks Alex!

[@jessicatapia7204]

Omg. Going upstairs to re do my tight line. You worded this the best!

[@sarahbear3437]

Awesome. Mystery solved, thank you. I was using the NYX snatch it for eyebrows to faux tight line on the uppermost lash line. I’m happy with this technique, it’s giving me the results I actually wanted.

[@lzwnn]

This was incredibly helpful, thanks!

[@HumblebeeAndMe]

Off to try this right now 😄 Thank you!

[@AlexandraAnele]

Hope it helps! 🙌🏼❤️

[@filizc.3246]

There's no one like you!!!! Love from Germany ♥

[@Lisa-iu9pe]

WOW! I tried this this morning! I watched this last night, so I tried it this AM, I used UD 24/7 waterproof/ long lasting eye liner pencil & a flat defining brush from Luxie. THANK YOU! This trick/technique worked so well! My liner didn’t run at all, even thru a full day of work, and hot humid summer weather! Amazing technique! Thank you so much for sharing!

[@GatineauGlitterOG]

Finally! A technique that works! Thank you!

[@momoonkissed]

Thank you thank you thank you! I've been searching dor a vid about this for dayssss

[@audrey3042]

Your eyes are stunning!

[@koribarrenger748]

Maybelline tattoo studio gel liner is great and doesn’t transfer much. NYX epic liner pencil is pretty bomb too

[@chel_hamelin]

The Sephora retractable waterproof eyeliner in shade 10 matte brown/black is my go to. I tight line my upper waterline every time I wear makeup as my lids are tilted so it’s exposed. I just swipe it straight on. I rarely have transfer. Maybe on a particularly windy day but it has lasted me through weddings no problem

[@averyevemccall9139]

So talented and to the point!😊

[@Pink1065]

Life changing! I totally understand now!

[@ShurburMom]

😮 I always thought it was on the water line.. Thank you for the clarification and for this video!

[@laurenlaprade7980]

I love how you explain things so thoroughly. I'm mean, I'm not an idiot 😂 and do well with makeup. But this I have always struggled with. You're the best. ❤ Also, you're sooooo beautiful.

[@kathycrawford4719]

Thank you so much for showing this technique. Makes it so much easier than using a pencil only. Again, thank you.

Omg i dont think i can do that without blinking and hurting my eyes !!! how do you even able to do that Alex so pretty makes the lash thicker looking 😍😍😍😍👏👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@hankbug]

Thank you for clearing up the difference between the base of the lashes vs. the inner lid (water line). Also, what lip color are you wearing? It is stunning..

ugh ive been trying to figure this sheet out cause i do the pencil right straight on the water line and hours later boom raccoon eyes and on top of that i have dark circles, im gonna try this, thank you girl!!!!!

Yes, VERY helpful. Thank you!!

[@CheersToTheGemini]

The only eye pencil that I have found I can tight-line with without transfer (and without going over it with eyeshadow in hopes it would stay longer) is the Il Makiage long-wear intense pigment waterproof eye pencil ($22). Tight-lined with it one day and realized it had not smudged AT ALL to my waterline or bottom lashes and thought maybe it was a fluke. So I tested it out again, for a full day and a full evening out dancing and sure enough, it did not budge or transfer to my waterline. Creamy texture, intense color and long-lasting! Definitely recommend that one!💛

[@exoinvadedmymind1006]

Where can I find it???

[@lhmcd5538]

Thank you. I realise I needed help with this. May you please take care and stay safe. 👏👏👏❤❤❤🤩🤩🤩

[@anniemahoney5810]

Okay, I tried this today and...SUCCESS! I'm so happy. I used e.l.f. No Budge Retractable Eyeliner, which is not the creamiest liner I've ever used, but it is inexpensive, waterproof and lasts all day.

[@mymatureface]

This is brilliant
