The person that comes to my mind is Criss Angel.  I've got to say most people can't pull it off, and I don't recommend trying, but that's my 0.02 That said, makeup in general (to hide blemishes, etc) can be good. I've got some concealer for those occasions when you get one of those Olympus Mons zits on your forehead. Yeah, it's fucking huge, but it doesn't have to glow like rudolph's nose. |

Personally, I think you'd have to try pretty hard to take peacocking too far. Remember, the point isn't actually to look good, it's to stand out. Women judge far less on physical attraction than they do on perceived status. Anything that makes you stand out is good, because for one thing it attracts attention, which is helpful. It's easier to approach someone if they're already talking about you. But most importantly it labels you right away as "different," which can lead to you being labeled as "special." Once you've demonstrated some high value, different/special = "better." With something like eyeliner, I'd be more worried about going half-assed rather than too far. Make sure the rest of your look keeps up with the eyeliner. Don't just go typical AFC and through some black around your eyes. It will look like you're doing it for attention, and that's another thing. Peacocking shouldn't look like it's forced. It should look like you're dressed that way because you're the shit and that's just what you do. |

I think it comes off looking creepy/emo. But the only reason *I* wouldn't try it is because I'd get my ass kicked. But then, I'm 5'7 140#, so I try to avoid fights. |

I dont do it oftern, but when i do it gets SO much attention and positive feedback. But i am generally complimented on my eyes. It all depends on your face, if your eyes are good, do it. If their not it might be a bad idea. It also depends on your style. I wouldnt go eyeliner and a shirt and dress trousers.... Thin leather jacket, blue jeans and white belt... well

I guess it depends on the individual. If you got solid inner game and are the life of the party, then sure. Gives you something to talk about. But if not, than your just going to look like a creep. |

If it matches your image then go for it. I used to get a friend that wore it literally constantly and women loved it but if it isn't congruent with everything else it will just look weird. |

Exactly. You have to also take into consideration the type of girls you want to attract.

yup it would be totally lost on most club girls but go to a rock night or club and it would be lapped up. |

I wear it when I go to Rock concerts, and I go to a LOT of them. Chicks totally dig it. It would be retarded anywhere else though. Even a rock-ish type bar it would be lame if there wasn't any live music and there was no "event" going on. I would've never started doing it but I was going out with this chick friend to a show one night & she asked me if I'd do it & it was pretty bad ass, fuck it. In the right place it's cool but there aren't too many of them. If you're not a Rockin' ass motherfucker I wouldn't recommend it. Plus your boys will probably give you a hard time but when all the babes are staring into your eyes all night it's worth it. |

Hi Guys As i was reading this i thought would could i add in that already hasnt been covered, and i thought not much, but i thought i would share my thoughts anyways ha It all depends on the guy, some guys can pull it off others cant and off course it all depends on your getup, look at folk like Russel Brand he totally pulls it off, not because he has amazing eyes ha, but because it compliments his overall look, but again i dont think its just a look you can pull of wearing a rocker style but it can compliment many, if you have nice eyes then why not draw attention to them? if you were glasses however i would think again, and thats coming from a guy that wears glasses lol anyways thats my thoughts. Peace |

Only wear eye liner, as a guy, if you are famous. Otherwise, you just look creepy or foreign AND you probably did a really bad job of applying it since you haven't been wearing it since the age of 13 like every girl you're trying to pick up. |

I wear eyeliner all the time...well in the uk a brand of GUYliner and MANscara has been launched. So i should say i wear GUYliner all the time. It isnt as dark as eyeliner so its less noticable yet at the same time still brings out your eyes. And most chicks love it...ive had a few wanabe AMOGs come up and be like "dude your wearing eyeliner a pink cardigan girls bracelets and youve got black nail varnish....are you a fuckin queer" but its nothing i cant handle and girls love the "I dont give a fuck what you think this is me" kind of attitude so i say yer knock yourself out wear whatever you want to wear....but only if you have the game and inner game to match the outfit. |

Just some advice Dont wear black eyeliner if you have blue eyes, wear brown instead I think it looks better on guys if it looks like they haven't tried too hard with it. if it looks perfect, then the girl has nothing to teach you |
