Mornings are chaotic enough—coffee in one hand, phone buzzing in the other—who has time for uneven eyeliner? That’s why makeup artists and busy women alike rave about this one-stroke method that saves precious minutes while still delivering that polished, confident look.
The Secret? Glide, Don’t Press
Instead of dragging the eyeliner with pressure, gently glide the tip in a single motion along your lash line.
Pressing too hard creates bumps and breaks; gliding allows the pencil or pen to flow smoothly, leaving behind a clean, even line.
Anchor Your Hand for Stability
Place your pinky finger lightly against your cheek as you draw. This tiny anchor steadies your hand and stops the dreaded mid-swipe wobble.
Women on the go swear this keeps their line sharp even when they’re rushing.
The Inner-to-Outer Sweep
Start at the inner corner with the thinnest line and gradually thicken it as you move outward.
This creates a natural lift effect without the need for touch-ups. Many say it makes the eyes instantly look more awake—perfect for those 7 a.m. meetings.
Wing in One Flick
For a quick cat-eye, extend the line just past the outer corner in a flick—no second guessing, no redrawing. If you miss, clean up with a cotton swab dipped in micellar water. Done in seconds, no drama.
✨ Eyeliner doesn’t need to be an everyday battle. With this one-stroke glide trick, you’ll be out the door faster and looking like you actually had time to enjoy that coffee. So tell me—are you ready to try this tomorrow morning?
