So many people have seen white eyeliner in stores, but never bought it because they didn't know how to use it. They assume that it isn't used like normal cosmetic eyeliner because of its unconventional color. In reality, white eyeliner can be used in many interesting ways.

If you want to take advantage of this beautiful eyeliner, then you'll benefit from these tips:

1. Line your eyes like you normally would. Just like black, brown or grey eyeliners, you can use white eyeliner to highlight your eye on both the top and bottom lid. This does give a very noticeable cosmetic look though, so this is best left for the brave.

1. For brighter, larger eyes, line just the bottom lid. When you're doing your regular makeup look, even with black eyeliner on the top lid, add a bit of white to the inside of your lower lid. This will be barely noticeable and will give your eyes a bit of a pop.
2. Layer eyeliners for an interesting effect. You can create a new look by first lining your eyes with thick white eyeliner and then going over it in a thinner, darker color, such as black or blue. This brightens your eye while still keeping your look relatively normal and safe for work.
3. Change your white eyeliner to a different shade with eye shadow. All you do is dust a bit of a different, bright eye shadow color over your white eyeliner. Then brush your lid with a clean round brush. The shadow on the lid will lighten, but your old white eyeliner will now be tinted whatever color you added. This means you can have any color eyeliner as long as you have white and multiple shades of shadow.
4. For added eye brightening and highlighting, apply white eyeliner to the inner corner of your eye. Lining the top and bottom lid from the inner corner of your eye out until about a half a centimeter will add some real punch to your eyes without changing your look too much. Your eyes will look brighter and you'll seem more awake and ready to go.

With these techniques, you should be able to use white colored eyeliner like a pro. Not only will you get good makeup looks, but you'll also have some neat ways to make your eyes look bigger and brighter.

Choosing the Right White Eyeliner

Wondering what eyeliners are the best? With so much on the market, it can be hard to choose the right one. Follow these tips to get the best white liner available.

• Choose a retractable gel eyeliner. Not only will you forgo sharpening, this type of liner goes on easier and smoother than regular pencils or liquid eyeliner.
• Price doesn't always matter. Although expensive brands have the notoriety, you can often find inexpensive liners that work just as well.
• Experiment with what you buy. It may take a few brands before you find the perfect white eyeliner for you.

Now you know exactly how to buy your white eyeliner, and what to do with it when you get it home.

Braiding is a fun and fashionable way to do hair. There are several types of braids. This article will tell you how to do a simple braid, a French braid, an inside out braid, a German braid and a fishbone braid.

To do a simple braid pull all the hair back, you may want to secure it with a rubber band. Divide the hair into three sections. Take the right section of hair over the middle section, now take the left section over the middle one. Alternate the right and left sections until you reach the end of the hair. Now band or clip it to keep it in place.

A French braid is the next most popular braid. To do this braid, start at the very top and take three small, but equal sections of hair from the front. Begin braiding by moving the right to the middle and then the left. In your right hand pick up a little more hair and move this into the middle. With your left hand pick up more hair and move it to the middle. Continue alternating, each time picking up a little more hair on the side. When you come to the bottom of the head you should have picked up all the hair. Now just continue with the rest of the hair like the simple braid. This braid will probably take a great deal of practice. Some hints to make this braid look good are to begin the braid with most of the hair from the top of the head and then each time you gather more hair get even amount all the way down.

An inside out braid is basically a French braid done inside out. Gather the first three sections of hair, but instead of going over the middle section go under and make sure it is pulled kind of tight, but be careful not to pull hard on the scalp. Continue by picking up a little more hair each time and taking each section, alternating right and left, under the middle one. This will produce a braid that sticks out off the head.

A German braid is done by taking a section just above one ear and braiding over to the other ear. Like the French braid you gather more hair each time you move the sections to the middle, but with this braid you only gather a very tiny amount of new hair. Only pick up the areas of hair right next to the braid. Continue over the head to the other ear and then down to the end of the hair and band or clip. This headband effect will hold all the hair out of the face even though most of it still loose.

Fishbone braid is done by dividing all the hair into two sections. Take a very small section from the top of the right side and add it to the left. Don’t keep it separate after that. Take a small section of hair from the top left and add it to the right. Continue to go back and forth working all the hair in. Keep it tight. Work down the head and continue in the same way until you have reached the bottom of the hair, band or clip. This braid is very impressive looking especially if use very tiny amounts of hair, but it can take a very long time to complete.
