I have always tighlined my eyes since I started wearing makeup and is a technique I will continue to do.What is tightlining? It’s a way of applying your eye liner right in between your lashes. This is a great way of adding a little bit of definition to your eyes, and making the base of your lashes appear thicker. It really works and looks so natural as if you were just born with smoldering eyes.
