This look works beautifully on hooded and almond-shaped eyes because it enhances shape without overcrowding the lid. It can be done in classic black for sleek drama or in bright neon for a bold artistic statement.

The key to perfect floating liner is symmetry and precision.

What It Is

A sharp eyeliner line placed above the crease rather than along the lash line.

How to Achieve It

  1. Prime eyelids thoroughly.
  2. Lightly map crease shape with nude shadow.
  3. Use liquid liner to draw curved line above crease.
  4. Extend into subtle wing if desired.
  5. Clean edges with concealer.
