Hi Tamara, I am not sure I am commenting in the right place as I am a newbie to KZbin commenting. Thank you so much for this tight living tip! I used to do it, and it was simple, but I now have this strange vision problem which gives me vertical double vision Both eyes see fine, just not in the same place. So applying makeup, especially eye liner, is quite a challenge!. I find it so much simpler to use this technique, as I am only looking in the mirror with one eye! Thank you so much! I am not sure how to find the product descriptions in the notes? I am curious about the eyeliners you used! Thank you so much again! I

[@clbrad402]

Hi Tamara. I have worked in ophthalmology for the last 30 years, and I am so glad you mentioned precautions and how doing this to the 'water line' can affect the eyes. I have seen many women with dry eyes and even infections because they pack on the makeup in that area, and as we age, we are more and more prone to dry eye in the first place. However, it is a VERY beautiful look on you, so I am even going to try it myself. You are right... it makes your lashes look lush and your eyes stand out. Thanks for the 'lesson'.

[@TamarasTimelessBeauty]

Thank you so much Christine! I tried to hit the risks, but forgot to mention infection. I hope people watch Dr. Rupa’s excellent video! Good luck with your tightlining!

Hi there, yes, I’m in my 60s and I’ve been told by my optician to stop wearing any form of eye liner, even though I’m careful when applying (I too worked as a retinal eye screener until retiring last year) any products, ive now got dry eye, could be also be age related , but when My eyes were examined under the slip lamp with no eye make up on he could see debris of eye liner still there! Think it’s time to stop using it for myself! Wouldn’t mind I only did this if I was going somewhere special …keep safe everyone 🥰

I tried this technique, making applying a thin application of eyeliner VERY easy. Best technique yet.

Your videos are very helpful and your general sincerity make them easy to follow and I feel like it possible to attain all these looks!!Thank you so much for helping us out!💜

[@NancyDiaz-BeautyforMatureSkin]

I totally agree with you. Makeup on mature skin is very different. My biggest thing is LESS is MORE, especially when it comes to foundation. I myself am 56 and also have a beauty channel for skincare and makeup for mature women. I love how Tamara explains everything so calmly and easily. She’s great!

[@NancyDiaz-BeautyforMatureSkin]

I didn’t know we were prone to dry eyes as we get older. I have heard of dryness you know…down there. But I guess it makes sense that the eyes are affected too.

[@StyleWithCathyOver50]

I love the Charlotte Tilbury eyeliner pencil, it glides on my waterline so easily.

[@conniesmith9989]

Hi. Thank you for expressing the difference in eyeliner and tight lighting. I really appreciate the pros and cons.

[@deborahhenderson5219]

I LOVE to enhance both the tight line in a darker brown pencil better for mature and blondes & water line. Water lining with a beautiful Sephora 12 hour colorfull pencil in "Fresh Mint" looks beautiful with my green eyes! Try water lining also....just don't use a dark pencil for the water line, use a color to enhance your eye color!!!

[@stacey5741]

Thank you so much. I will be using this trick, I was hopeless doing it the other way.

[@pampower2425]

Great tips Tamara. I have dry eyes so I’ll watch the video and try tight line a bit to see if the tight line is irritating. Thank you.

[@wanderingaudi4138]

Hi Tamara, I just found you and your videos today. I have attempted to tight line many times without success. This method seems like something I can handle, I will be attempting the technique. I am so glad I found you and am looking forward to catching up with the rest of your videos. There are not many ladies who provide content for women in our age group. Thank you!

Thank YOU! And Welcome, I’m super happy to have you here! Good luck with tightening! ❤️

This was great and very helpful. I do love tight lining too. It’s such a great trick. I find I blink then smudge. I will try this technique, also I love the cosmic brown from Avon. It’s a beautiful color with lots of pigment, and stays in place. Thank you, you are so sweet.

[@lindawatts5260]

Makes sense! Love this video . Your eyes look great with tight lining. I’ll be watching you again and Dr Ruba

[@shogo8995]

I accidentally discovered the same technique. I was really attempting to apply the liner to the very base of my lashes, but when I opened my eye I discovered that I had made a perfect tight line without the eye watering. I did wonder if I should be taking the line further to the inner and outer corners of my eyes, but I also don’t care for that look. I just discovered L’Oréal le Liner and I agree, it goes on easily and is the only liner I find still on my tight line at end of day. Still, it removed very easily with my eye make remover. Thank you for a great tutorial!

[@Einsteinsmum]

Terrific video Tamara! Thanks for such an easy to follow demonstration. My favorite pencil to use for this technique is Maybelline’s Tattoo Studio in Smokey. BTW, your recommendation of Neutrogena’s moisturizing stick concealer in another video was game changing for me. I’m using it as a primer on my upper lids and simply love the results. Your recommendations never fail. ❤️

[@eunemarr7180]

Another trick I've learnt is to put the eyeliner as a stripe on a lashcurler and simply curl my eyes. It woks however I shall try your tips too. You're beautiful

[@dabeestuff]

I’ve been tight lining for over 30 years. Never knew it was called this. I’ve always used kohl pencils by Prestige but have problems finding them.

[@bonnieheinz6417]

Thanks for the great info related to tight lining and dry eye. I do have that condition and I will watch the video you recommended. This was a wonderfully informational

[@dorcasgilbert1575]

Wow you can really tell the difference

[@auntbeck9447]

I sometimes pull my upper lid to the side to get more control. I also use my dark brown brow pencil instead of an eyeliner. Works in both places and it’s a nice soft pencil tip.

[@jodydiou]

You should try using a nude light color on your lower waterline. It REALLY opens up your eyes. I use ABH Highlighting Duo Pencil, I prefer the Matte Camille/Sand Shimmer color. 1 side is matte for the bottom waterline and 1 shimmer for the brow bone highlight.

[@cindyb5062]

Thank you... thank you... thank you!!! I have the same issues you had with tight lining, and I just gave up. I can’t wait to try it on my eyes. Being someone with dry eyes, I will check out the video you suggested as well. You are the best, and your videos are so helpful to me!!

I needed this video!! I always have a hard time to tight line ! Your Technique seems so much easier. I will give this a try thank your videos are the best learning experience I have seen !! Do you curl you eyelashes before you apply your mascara?♥️

[@TamarasTimelessBeauty]

Thank you Mary! I always forget to mention eyelash curling! Probably because no I don't curl my eyelashes. Somehow I got lucky and they curl on their own. But...I know that if you do curl your eyelashes, it should be before mascara. And I had one commenter say you should also curl before tighlining...hope this helps!

[@sunseeker65]

Thank you so much, Tamara. I have really been enjoying all your videos! My problem with tight lining is that I seem to always have "fall out" by the end of the day. The color winds up migrating unto the skin below my eyes. Any tips to prevent this? Thanks again. Keep up the terrific work!

I have tried to tightline occasionally for the past six months, with mixed results. It seems like no matter which eyeliner I choose, the liner always transfers to my lower waterline, which I hate. I’ll try the L’Oreal Le Liner and see if it works any better for me. I also seem to have one spot on the outer corner of my upper waterline (on my right eye only) that gets super irritated from the liner. I hope I can make it work, eventually, because I do love the look. Thanks for the great tutorial!

[@sage4961]

[@Soapartisan875]

Thank you for this tutorial 😍I needed to see the technique without freaking out and poking my eye out lol

[@christian5707]

I’ve tried so many eyeliners for tight lining and they always transfer to the bottom waterline and eventually gather in the corner of my eye. I have sensitive eyes as well and it just seems to exasperate this. My optometrist was so upset when I went in for an eye exam and she saw that I had tight lined, I definitely struggle with dry eye, so she insisted I stop. It’s such a shame because as I age lid space is becoming scarce.

[@prettyfayegirl7317]

I have same problem, the liner either smudges on me because of my eyes get so watery or it collects in my tear duct. I personally gave up on tightline eyeliner simply because my eyes get too irritated for it.

Thanks, Tamara! I've been using your technique recently (I think you mentioned briefly in another video how you applied?). But this more detailed video was so helpful. I had been applying to upper waterline corner to corner, but next time I'll try stopping just short of each corner. Agreed, it takes practice. Sometimes the pencil jumps, and I get it on my upper lid just above the lash line. Practice makes perfect LOL!!

What are the best colors for brown eyes and 72 year old

[@TamarasTimelessBeauty]

Tightline is mostly to make the eyelashes look thicker so dark brown or dark grey will work with any eye color. I do think navy brightens the whites of the eyes a bit without being obvious. As far as eyeliner around the eye...I do like a lighter tone so as not to look too heavy. I think the Sephora Collection Retractable Water Proof Eye pencil in shimmer taupe works for all eye colors...it gently defines without being too heavy. Hope this helps!

Hi Debbie. My mom is in her 70’s and has had this issue all her life. She has oilier lids/waterlines. We’re trying a good tubing mascara for her upper and lower lashes (the MAC that Tamara recommended) and she generally doesn’t use eyeliner. She focuses more on her lashes and brows. Maybe try Tamara’s technique for going between the lashes and not on the actual waterline. Hope that’s somewhat helpful! 😊💖💜

[@TamarasTimelessBeauty]

Thank you Joan! I do get a tiny bit of transfer to my lower waterline sometimes, but it doesn’t bother me…I actually think it slightly defines the lower lash line,

[@chriss.4093]

This is NOT a recommended technique for contact wearers! Please don't try this, if you wear contacts... And yes, the contacts should be in first, before any eye makeup. Also, any tightlining/waterlining should be occasional and lightly done, more into the lash lines than the further in on the mucocutaneous portion, and avoiding the corners or there will be build up. Any build up and makeup particles is bad for any contact wearers, especially if it gets under the contacts, etc, as doing so can cause scratches and infective.

[@dianek3351]

As we get older, why bother with this? We used to do this as kids & young adults on bottom inner eye. I’d rather keep eyeliner on top. This is too risky for older adults. Too many risks. Or for anyone. No thanks, not for me. You do it well though.

Really bad for your eyes. Can cause dry eyes. Check with your doctor.

Oh my gosh. All I could think of was in the 80’s how we used to take that maybelline red-painted hard black liner, melt it with a match or lighter then go to town on the lower waterline and on the lids/under lower lashes. Lol. We didn’t call it tight lining, but I remember how I eventually stopped doing it because I hated the black eye goop in the corner of all of our eyes 2 hours after being in school! Thank you for showing the between the lash technique. I’m struggling to give up my black eyeliner (my eyes are dark brown). I used the CT brown liner yesterday and really liked it. I also have learned about using a white pencil on the lower line to help brighten the sclera. I’m not sure I really like that contrast though. It can be noticeable. Stay warm up there! I saw you had a sweater AND a jacket on! 😊💖💜

Right?! The eighties and even the nineties were all about heavy eye pencil all around the eyes…I remember the black eye gunk ick! And yes…freezing here…I also have thermals under the cashmere LOL!

Thank you for demonstrating this technique as I struggled with tight lining also. Very helpful. Love your bloopers as well!

[@judimcswain7618]

I love this technique! Thank you so much for the demonstration. I just love your “bloopers” at the end! They make me 😂. You always have great content💕

[@genastokley3238]

Thank you! This has been the best, most informative tutorial I’ve come across on tight lining. I tried it and it was so easy, my eyes didn’t water. I can’t thank you enough ❤️

[@MS-de7bb]

You are stunning!

I love your look with the shades of grey and pop of pink. Two things I cannot bear to do is curl my eyelashes with one of those horrid looking devices or tight line. You never mentioned how long it took you to develop your tight line technique, but you certainly were determined. I’m definitely a quitter! 😂 In case others have my reaction to tight lining and like me stop trying, Smitha Deepak demonstrated my new favorite eye lining technique called a “puppy dog eye” that is my new go-to. Instead of fighting the hood or shape of eye it lets you accentuate the roundness. She also shows how to “stamp” the liquid eyeliner on. Thank goodness for you folks on YT teaching all of us the useful things you’ve learned or developed.

I love Smitha but somehow missed that video…I’m going to check it out for sure. Thx for sharing! ❤️

Took me a week to master the tight line technique. I prefer to line the lashes from above very close because doing the waterline makes my eyes look smaller.

Hi Tamara, I never heard of tight lining until 2 years ago. I di mine differently than you do and I also use dark eyeshadow instead of a liner. I guess it is all in what we feel comfortable with. You did that so easily so you have worked out what method works best for you. Great video Tamara! Much love, Sheila

It worked for my wife the 1st time. She loved it.

[@TamarasTimelessBeauty]

@@sethwahnee2036 Yay!!

[@beautybydez]

I tried your way and it worked! I was a bit nervous as I do tight line but I usually pull my eyelid up - so thank you for showing me this new method! I love the fact that it makes my lashes look thicker, which is much needed.

I watched a video of yours on tight lining a few months ago and it was such a game changer. I never could get the hang of it before but now I do it every day with such ease! Thank you! I’ve been using an old Chanel brown eyeliner that I had been hanging on to. Works great! 😘

Your energy/ vibe is really lovely and warm.

Hi Tamara! Yes definitely tight lining takes plenty of practice. Thank you for sharing your great tips. I have to agree, l'oreal Le Liner is amazing, I have all the shades too. Hope you have a great week my friend, take care! 🤗💕
