My mom alway's says it's tacky and weird but it's not that bad i once got suspened for wearing my eye liner in a "not appropriate" way stupid teachers....Share your info on this subject

><

Wow

Your school is, unfortuniatly, non liberal. To be suspended for how one choses to express one' self, I consider to be wrong. While rules and guidelines must be adhered to, I see no harm within your above statement.

To conclude, it is not "tacky," it is not "weird," and it is NOT "inappropriate."

I agree if a school suspends you for that than F*** them they suck a** I hate dumb teachers.....

ive never been in trouble for my eyeliner but i was once alomost suspended for wearing strippy purple and black leggings but i said 'well...you could suspend my but dont think i wont tell everyone about mr.frame sexualy harrassing every girl that is unfortunate enough to be in his class and yet you dont fire him...odd..., also you would have just suspended one of your best pupils cuz they expressed their self in an artistic unusual way, now people wont be too pleased about either will they?' and then they stared at me, i smirked and they just said 'mabey we were too strict we can let you off with it,' and asked me to leave, it was fun XD

aww taht is so sweet!XD...ew that guy is a perv...

You got suspended for just smearing eyeliner? That's not right... gonk

Smearing eyeliner tastefully actually looks cool... 3nodding

Smeared eyeliner can give you that "smoky" look, which is always in fashion. Just look at any of the big name designers (ie, Prada, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Versace, etc rolleyes ) and you will see that the smoky eye look is IMMORTAL. I personally think it is a rather dramatic look for someone to wear every day, but once in a while is ok.

While I think the school rules are silly, they're school rules and you should abide by them, or else be prepared for further disciplinary action. gonk

Stupid rules.

I donno, I think makeup usually looks bad on people, whatever they do with it.

See, the thing is, my eyeliner on my bottom lid *always* smears, so I just style it so it doesn't matter >.<

So, no, I don't think it looks tacky. HOWEVER, if it ends up looking....trampy, for lack of a better word, and you're wearing something nice and neat, then it's tacky.

Also, people who end up covering half their face with eyeliner...THAT'S tacky. I've never liked it....with the exception of this one chick who used red black and purple eyeliners and did this really nice piece on the side of her face. I wish I had a camera for that.

[Dark_Judje]

i don't use make-up... unless i go to a concert...  

[Fire Panther]

well...some times i smear it put others i just make it really dark and deep

I think you have to be very careful smudging eyeliner because 9 times out of 10 it will look like s**t.  

[Al-aaraaf]

I just started to wear eyeliner, and I constantly smear it. Not intentionaly, it just happens.
(Its smeared right now actualy...)
The few times I have worn it to school, I have been complimented and made fun of.
But I have gotten more compliments than insults, and they have been mostly from girls approving of it highly, so I continue to wear eyeliner, smeared or not.

HA! I laugh at you all!!! I go to an arts school! our teachers rock!!! (well, most of em anyways....)  

[Starfish Attack]

wow i can relate

i was sent up to the councelors office
told to take off my eyeliner
and that it was "distracting the other students"
and alos told to
remove my bracelets
i was like
psh
and attempted an exit
but she forced me to wash it off
and i removed one spikey bracelet
and she looked at me like "the others....?"
and i just sat there and said "can i go now?"
and shes like "yea go back to class."
and i put it all back on ^^  

[melancholymolly]

I think smeared eyeliner is awesome. I wear my makeup that way sometimes but not all the time. I've been thinking about wearing it to school but my mom won't let me. Everytime I tell her I'm going to school with my makeup like that she tells me I'll get in trouble and I'll embarrass her. sad

Don't your teachers have better things to worry about...? You should have them define "appropriate".

As far as tacky goes, just about anything can look classy/nice/proper/whatever-word-you're-looking-for if done right. Besides, tacky is an attitude, not a look. Be classy and you'll look classy.

Just don't smear it all the way down your face like "tears". It screams POSEUR TO THE M.A.X.!!!!!!!!!lol.
