Step 4
Connect the liner to the inner corner of your eye and fill in any missing spaces along the lash line.
Step 5
Repeat Steps 2 to 5 on your other eye and voilà, you’ve completed your winged eyeliner!
A few extra tips:
- Be sure to follow the natural shape of your eye. When you try to change the shape of your eyes with liner, it actually makes them look smaller. Very counterproductive.
- The trick is to line as close to the lashes as humanly possible.
- The firmer you press the brush, the thicker the line will be.
- Use a hands-free mirror and keep your eye relaxed and slightly open as you line.
- This is very important: Once you finish lining your eye, do not blink for at least 10-15 seconds to allow the liner to dry.
- After you have lined both eyes, be sure to compare the liner on each eye. Are they even? If not, simply take a pointed Q-tip and lightly drag it along the line to the eye to make it symmetrical to the other eye.
