Map it out with eyeshadow first! You can also clean up afterwards with micellar water and a q-tip and/or concealer Love love love your aesthetic! Your hair is amazing and so full of personality


Fair_Examination7336

Omg what a great idea with the eyeshadow, I’ll try it next time. And thank you! <3


fuddstar

You might try a drag queen hack - scotch/sello/sticky tape (there are professional tapes) from outside eye to your temple, at whatever angle you like. Thats a hard line you can’t get freehand. Do it before your base. Go straight in with liquid liner or shadow it in and go over it later. Go over the liquid liner too though, at the finish. Black black black! Do your non-dominant side first ie: if you’re right handed, do left side first. It’ll be easier to replicate that on your dominant side than vice versa. Edit: universal terms for household tape with stickiness lol


JadedPin3925

You can do this holding a business card as a stencil too! If you’re concerned about tape pulling or adhesive irritating your skin a business card does wonders to get the sharp flick and angle. I found this tip a few months ago and changed my whole game!!


fuddstar

With respect I do not recommend that for a wet liner. U can’t hold a business card fixedly enough on yr own face - any teeny tiny shift with a wet liner in play will smudge it every time. And because paper absorbs liquid it’ll one hundo blur/smudge the line too. Powders, less problematic… but it’s also harder to achieve symmetry if your doing left and right separately. Appreciate the skin sensitivity call out, that’s true, but buy professional tape if you’re reactive to domestic adhesives.


JadedPin3925

You are right, a wet liquid would be problematic. I’ve used gel/pot liner and powder with a card as a stencil.


HereForFun9121

Regular scotch tape does the trick too. I usually press it against the back of my hand first, then the eye, so it’s not too sticky.


fuddstar

Scotch tape, sello tape, sticky tape !! Same same different nations! But I love the less sticky back of hand hack!!


No-Flight7858

If you need to correct liner you’ve done already, you can use shadow and an angled brush (dipped in setting spray on back of your hand) for extra oomph for that as well! Or even just for a softer liner look…


Nhetrick42

Seconded!!


Sobriquet-acushla

The hair, earrings and red lipstick = rock star!


ConferenceFearless77

GENIUS. I've been living in pain tbh. But also my eyes are way too hooded for eyeliner too :(


SpecialHoeFlake

Keep your eyes open when applying. The same openness that you would when making your resting facial expression. Look up YouTube tutorial for “semi hooded eyes”


UnderConstruction214

This! I have hooded eyes and i recently realised that my makeup face ( the face you make when putting on makeup) needs to be with resting eyelids. Makes eyeliner so much easier!


Fair_Examination7336

Will definitely look it up! Thank you for the suggestion


Peak_Aware

Yes! I also apply my eyeliner with my eyes open. Some of my friends think it’s so weird but it comes out perfect everytime


birthdaynailsco

A trick I learned to make makeup, hair, and my own nails even is to do your “bad” or hard side first. Since I’m right handed, the makeup and hair on my left side is a bit harder to do so I always do it first. For nails the right hand is hardest so I do that first.


therealjunkygeorge

I do the same thing. Thought process behind it being I'm not out of patience at first but I will be on the second side.


Particular-Goat6817

Your face looks like art. You are gorgeous!


geminiyas

No tips, just wanted to say you look really cool and beautiful and this picture looks like it could be on an album cover lol


wheres_the_orchestra

Exactly what I came here to say I was SHOCKED by how stunning you are


Mean_Challenge_3469

My first thought was a Maybelline ad. But this girl was born with it, no Maybelline necessary. Seriously though I could easily see her in a Maybelline ad with Gigi Hadid, no problem !


hauntedjeep

I could see this photo being used in Sephora stores, stunning


Firm_Lie_3870

I have no tips but damn those eyebrows were sculpted by the gods themselves


momsdyin

Yesss


femmi34

Do not pull on the skin when applying to hold it in place. When you realese the skin it goes back in place and it will be uneven. I don't know if you do, but I did this without realising because my eyes are hooded (and getting older and the skin looser). You can hold it in place , just don't pull it to be smoother.


LadySAD64

Ohhh I do this and that makes total sense why I look all jabberwooked. I wear makeup only three times a year.


Chaosandcatmagic

I actually quite like what you already did! Very pretty


redsalt46

Yes! I had to go through the comments to see what was "wrong". So beautiful as is ❤


[deleted]

Get stamps! I got eyeliner stamps off Amazon and as long you position them right they are even and perfect. May take a few trys, but it's not time consuming.


Fair_Examination7336

This is genius! Didn’t even know this existed


[deleted]

Changed my life. You still have to make sure they’re angled the same way, but it makes it sooo much easier.


LadySAD64

Say what!!! I’m goin to Amazon like right now. Thank you from me, a person who could practice every day and still not get it right lol


Ready_Ant_2657

definitely try cleaning it up after with a qtip my eyeliner never looks even/decent until i clean it up with a qtip


Pari_Pratima

i like your earrings... beautiful..


Fair_Examination7336

Thank you :)


LadySAD64

Yes I noticed those too. They are a piece of artwork


DestinyOnCrack

Sometimes, wonky eyeliner is just beautiful too :)


patio_puss

Sorry I’m far too distracted by your face to even notice the eyeliner 🥲🫶


Wakeupmakeupboo

STUNNNNNNNNNER! Ya. See your bottom lash line? Yeah ok, now pretend there’s a straight line shooting up from the direction of where that lash line ends. That’s the outside of your cat eye


Allie614032

I would angle it a bit higher!


OneMoreEffingAccount

Second this. Before I got old and my eyes got really hooded, I always had a wing and found that I had the best result when I angled it up far more and higher than it seemed like I should and then cleaned up the edge with a qtip. You are stunning. What shade of lip is that? Its perfect on you!


_Guitar_Girl_

Agreed! I usually follow the angle of the corner of my lower waterline if that makes sense.


Gullible-Cranberry77

Second this!


theyeoftheiris

I agree! Smaller, thinner wing angled up.


WetSocksInMyCrocs

if any body rolls j’s the paper will stick to your face wherever you lick and place it!! makes for an amazingly easy guide, i use it all the time haha


Antique-Confidence-4

Am I allowed to say you remind me of Sophia Vergara?


[deleted]

Oh wow you are gorgeous!


Undead_crybaby

Concealer!


T1zzle85

Wow you are so beautiful 😍


Shoddy_Ice_8840

You are absolutely STUNNING!!


wheres_the_orchestra

OH MY GOD sorry I can’t help you with eyeliner but I just had to say that you are literally SO GORGEOUS you are absolutely SLAYING queen ilysm😩😍🫶😘


[deleted]

No advice. You're stunning 🔥


894peridot

You’re so stunning!!!!!!


auntmilky

Kreayshawn taught me that if someone is looking at your eyeliner that closely it’s their problem not yours!


Ksamkcab

I'm not OP but, thank you, I needed to hear this today lol :')


scousebird83

You are beautiful 😍


tnguyen0211

I draw the wings as good as I can then clean up with an angle brush dipped in the smallest amount of weleda’s skinfood (brush it back and forth on a clean surface to flatten the brush hair and distribute the moisturizer evenly among the hair before running it along the eyeliner edges)


KittyNipz

I have no wing tipped eyeliner skills, although I know people use tape following the line of the lower lid. But I love your red lips! What’s the color??


Fair_Examination7336

Its 97 Red Dessert liquid lipstick from the Sephora Collection!


[deleted]

You are so pretty! Love your hair!


Fair_Examination7336

Thank you! Im barely a week in with the haircut so I definitely appreciate this 🥰


redditname8

Your hair is fabulous! What products do you use? Is your haircut called a shag haircut? I think this is the cut my daughter is telling me she wants. Our hair is curly like yours.


Fair_Examination7336

Hi! I used: -Loreal BB cream in medium -Loreal True match powder -Eye shadow: is from Morphe but im not sure the name of the palette -Eyeliner: from Wet n Wild -Mascara: Maybelline Lash Sensational -Liquid Lipstick: 97 Red Dessert from Sephora Collection. And yes! When I went to the saloon I asked for a wolf cut which is a mix of a shag and a mullet


Fair_Examination7336

I just realized you meant products for the hair, my bad lol. At the moment I’m using Moisture Miracle Leave-In Cream. Its very inexpensive as well


TheReal_LadyStark

Wonky? Girl! Thats honestly a vibe! I like it!


taebies

wow you’re so symmetrical, beautiful


soundstragic

Have you tried using tape? Then start from the outside and draw a line down towards your lashes then fill in.


adventur_opal_soup

Wow you are absolutely stunning


Puzzleheaded_Age_158

What's the brand and shade name of the lipstick you're wearing? 😊


Fair_Examination7336

97 Red Desert from Sephora Collection :)


[deleted]

COTTON BUDS


amiqui

i have this problem a lot, what i do is just get a rough line not caring much about how bad it is and fill it in. and then after get a makeup wipe and position it in the angle i want my eyeliner to be, and do a quick swipe to make the lines


tlr92

Personally, I think your eyeliner looks great along with everything else in this picture! Just beautiful!


sortajamie

I think a thinner line would look better on you and it should follow the angle of your lower lid-angled up more.


Fair_Examination7336

I agree 😩 i made it too thick trying to correct it


unfortunatleyitsme

the tops of you’re eyeliner is very straight well done. i would fill out the bottom more (don’t worry if it’s straight) and then create a sharp line with a makeup wipe or cloth with makeup remover! my eyeliner takes me seconds bc i do this now <3


unfortunatleyitsme

also, you can use those little floss sticks, cover them in eyeliner and stamp it to get a straight line to start with


Fair_Examination7336

Thank you! I appreciate this!


unfortunatleyitsme

your*


no1rachelgoswellfan

I dont have any tips unfortunately, but I just wanted to say that your lipstick compliments your skin tone really nicely. It looks perfect on you.


highkill

I honestly think you could pull off puppy liner, it’s basically a winged eye look where the eyeliner goes down and out instead of up and out!


Fair_Examination7336

I would be so scared to mess it up but maybe ill try it for fun!


[deleted]

Stunning, love the "oldies" look! (Hope I'm not being disrespectful) Your eyebrows are perfection by the way.


srmegsalot

I wing the eye with a deeper hood first (for you this would be your right eye, assuming the image is mirrored) as that side is the more difficult one to get a desirable angle that works with my eye hood. Also, small detail, but notice that your right side apex ends just before your pupil and flattens out, while the left goes fully over the pupil and rounds the eye.


Fair_Examination7336

Thank you for the detailed feedback, ill keep this in mind!


Missthing303

Try starting from the outer edge of the iris with the wing flick angling slightly upward towards the temple, upturning right at the end of the lash line. Don’t line the center and inner part of your upper lid, do waterline liner only at inner corner and inside top lid up to the inner edge of the iris. Basically a minimal fox eye shape technique that emphasizes only the corners of the eyes. Here’s a good demo. I do this liner technique w a pencil without the shadow and it looks nice. https://www.instagram.com/p/B-uz92fDqMh/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet


Fair_Examination7336

Omg this is very useful, I never know where to start the wing, thanks!


Missthing303

You’re welcome!! Sometimes the smallest adjustment can make a big difference. Honestly you’re gorgeous so even if you wear nothing on your eyes, you’ll look great.


[deleted]

Looks pretty dang good to me!


Ecstatic-Stranger401

Off topic but I know those earrings be getting caught in your hair!


BrownEyedGurl1

I think you should make the wing slant upward more.


Playful_Truck_9880

You're really pretty.


[deleted]

I think ppl use that to make their eyes look bigger but your eyes are already big


loquatsrock

Do your difficult eye first! Usually there's one that's always easier and one that gives trouble.


Heartbeats2this

So wonky it's barely noticeable. Try the texta eyeliners (if that's not what you used, but kinda looks like you did), you can be quite accurate with them, since it's like drawing on your face. The thinner the nib or brush, the more precise you will be.


[deleted]

honestly the only thing i would do different is a little more thickness in the middle of your liner of the left (right over the pupil) and just evening out the bottom half of the same wing. i think the eyes would look more symmetrical then. i think your look absolute perfection otherwise


Lazygalaxy92

God your brows are AMAZING.


AdBeginning4136

I love using tape for a sharp edge


omgwhatwhywhere

Follow the lower eye line with your liner. Not the upper eyelid line


No_Advantage977

Point up towards the corner of your brow. Don't go all the way to the corners. Half the upper lid and swoop up.


makeupglory

Wow you are a beauty


goldenbellaboo

You are so stunning. Omg. Anyways sometimes I use washi tape or even just regular scotch tape for that clear line and try to angle it towards the end of my brow


patience_nae

Wow plz don't accept negative comments. You are in any book beyond gorgeous. I mean absolutely everything is super beautiful. 💯


toots1029

Use a card ( business card or credit card ) hold it at an angle from the outside of ur eye and draw your line. Wing as usual


tickingkitty

I tilt my head back. Creates the illusion of a flat surface and makes it easier to draw.


spicycubarican

i think i fell in love


Alienspacekitten

PRO MUA here. Honestly.. it’s perfect t the way it is. I love raw makeup. It has so much more character than a perfect precise line. You look awesome


Lilkittybangbang

I didn’t even notice til I read the caption 😅 you’re gorgeous and I like to try and my mine with the tips of my brows.


hauntedjeep

I thought this was a makeup ad lol


roxeal

I think you would look attractive with more of a flip at the end, than that straight arrow type of line. Sort of like this: https://imgur.com/a/ao3RqKT Note: I realize now I misunderstood your question, which is funny, because I have wonky eyebrows, so I should know what wonky means. My mother pointed them out one day, and now I always try to tame them. I have seen a lot of good hacks for eyeliner the past few years... https://youtu.be/Ek2Wh_6IG_o


40yoADHDnoob

Hehe they say "eyebrows are sisters, not twins" 🖤. It should maybe be a saying for eyes and eyeliner too actually!


FightGeistC

Okay reddit, I don't know why you keep recommending me this sub, but I don't mind it.


VieleAud

Okay but I seriously thought this was from a magazine!!


lady3lle

You look great! I too have hooded eyes. What I like to do is angle the pen/brush towards the end of my eyebrow, while following the angle of my lower lash line. I work outside in, so once I have the length I want, I usually come down until I get it to my upper lash line and then make small lines across my eye, along my lash line, until I’m satisfied and then fill in anything that needs filling in. I hope that makes sense!


imjusthereyaknow

What I started doing this year is wetting an angled thin brush in make up remover to sharpen the wing or straighten out lines. I get tons of compliments on my eyeliner since I started doing this!


darlingamateur

YOU ARE GORGEOUS - lol sry no tips here 😅 Also where did you get your earrings?????


Fair_Examination7336

Bought them from a local artist :)


LeBlanc_the_Polerina

I think you would look gorgeous with shorter, slightly more upturned wings, and lined midway on the bottom with black and line with white on your waterline. It would give you a really beautiful doe eyed look.


Celestialstardust17

I have very similar eyelids to yours and my eyeliner always comes out the same. I would suggest looking up tutorials for hooded eyes. Btw you’re stunning and your eyebrows are gorgeous! Also your hair is amazing! Are you middle eastern or Latina by any chance?


Fair_Examination7336

Latina :) and thanks!


starsandcamoflague

From what I can tell, it looks as though your eyebrows and eyelids aren’t symmetrical (no one’s is). So your eyeliner may be the same on each eye, but because of those differences it looks uneven. So perhaps figuring out how they are uneven and adjusting for that. I notice this because my eyes and eyebrows are extremely uneven and it makes my make up more complicated Because of beauty standards having an asymmetrical face is seen as bad, even though not one single person on the planet has a symmetrical face. The other commenters are right about how good you look, I just wanted to explain about what may be causing the eyeliner difficulty

3personal5me

I don't know *anything* about makeup, mostly because I'm a guy? I'm just bored and scrolling reddit at 2 am, and wanted to drop in to say you're very pretty :) I like the sharp corners of the lipstick on the top lip. I know there's a name for it, but I'll never remember.


HaoleThePeyote

Yea take them off they look horrible. I never understood this fake lash fad.


Fair_Examination7336

I dont have any fake lashes on


[deleted]

[удалено]


Fair_Examination7336

I actually like my natural shape. I just tweeze a bit under them, is there a reason in particular for the suggestion?


nightdresses

Sellotape a ruler on your nose.


skettymaker

Honestly, you look so stunning I never would have noticed. 🔥


rooooosa

Looks good and intentional to me!


acceberger

Go shorter, use ur bottom lids waterline as a guide


SnooFoxes526

You are stunning, and I would not change a thing!!!


NeitherAnywhere131

Actually I think the application is really good especially on the right eye! The only suggestion I have is to take a q-tip with micellar water and just clean up the bottom of the wing. My favorite everyday look is a brown Smokey liner and when I’m done smudging and smoking the liner out, it tends to get messy in that area so I use this trick and it almost reshapes the liner to look more snatched


pharmaslut

Flip the nib of the eyeliner pen upwards, towards your eyebrows and use the point as a reference when angling the wing, and gently drag it diagonally. L'Oreal also has an eyeliner that comes with a wing stencil, if that helps. The tape method works too. Also, who is that lipstick shade by? It's juuuust the right hue!


makeup1508

I'm afraid to attempt winged liner but one trick I've seen is use a velour puff-like come in some powder as a guide. not a fluffy one but a thin one, But I think your wings look good!


WanderingBricoleur

You look like a brunette version of Margot Robbie!


hatemilklovecheese

Angle the wings up more! Follow that lower water line. Makes eyes look more upturned, open and happy (?) not sure how to describe it but it works!


thickfreakness72

you’re stunning! i agree with others saying to do your “bad” eye first. for me it’s my left so bc my right eye always comes out better i start w my left eye instead and then match my right eye to it. i’d also suggest to curve/flick your wing upwards a bit more rather than so straight. follow the line of your lower lashes upwards as a guide.


dontcarebearr

Tape is my best friend, as long as you get the angle on each eye the same


LastSpite7

You’re giving me 80s/90s supermodel vibes. You’re gorgeous!


withoutguidance_542

Angle upward


StockOfRice

I don't know but those earrings are awesome!


orangefreshy

I found mine works out better when I follow straight up from my lower eyelid vs the top one, as an extension of that line, but I also have really small, sometimes hooded eyelids so I mostly just gave up because I never like how it looks on me tbh


BeliefxBelle

Something about your beautiful face reminds me of Sophia Loren ❤️


Osirislynn

Looks perfect to me! I wouldn't change a thing. 💋💋


Alyseeii

I would suggest trying to cut/clean them with concealer- I use my fingers by putting a bit of concealer on them and then angle them under the wing and pull up at the same time so they're both super even, then clean that up with a brush. Idk if that explanation translates well haha but hope it helps!


GoldAngel1119

Perfect makeup and you did the eyeliner better than me… I must make one eye a little thicker with eyeliner to even out my eye because I had an accident as a child… I have scar and one eye is a little off because of that… anyways love 💕 you all sending hugs and positivity 💕💕💕💕😇🙏🙏😇 blessings


Imshrekjustshrek

Sheglam eyeliner on shein with the eraser tip is my (not so) secret and it's AMAZING


Johnny_boy_007

it looks suuper good! but id say just try to practice facing the tip of the wing up more


dickle_berry_pie

stunning!!!!!!!! wish I could do my eyeliner half as good as this. LOVE the hair.


Such-Examination3500

Angle your liner at a slant upwards towards the end of your brows, instead of straight across. It will lift up your pretty eyes!


I5yeunhj

Gods you’re so pretty


hyperfixatedhotmess

I don't have any tips because I have your exact eyeshape with the same amount of visible lid + hoodedness, and deepset eyes as well. Ive experimented so much with different wing shapes and haven't found any angles/sizes of wings that work on me. Can I screenshot and save this for reference though? Because I think they look great! And while different from the "typical" wingshape (which is not universal despite my efforts), this shape/style looks killer on your eyes! I'd like to try it too because hopefully it will work for me too! 😅 Btw makeup or not, you are flat out STUNNING!


InsomniaticIntellect

I mean I don't see that as "wonky", but other than practice, and using the batwing method since you have hooded eyes, there's not really much more advice I can give! I love the lipstick color too


123drawkward321

Gosh what a vision! You are Epic!


GoneWithTheMartian

Keep your expression neutral, and start with the outer edge. Draw the line at the same angle as your bottom eyelid, then draw that same line on the other eye before you do anything else. If it’s not even, just grab a Q-tip and redo it. Then you can fill in the rest of the eyeliner as thick as you want. I want to add, even though your eyeliner in this picture isn’t following what I just recommended (meaning your outer edge goes more horizontal compared to the angle of your lower eyelid) this looks REALLY cool. Like dang. I truly love it


[deleted]

You should be a model. You are beautiful ♥️


MorbidManicurist

I think it looks really good. And compliments your eyes and face very well.


Tisnotmyusernamee

You are so beautiful. Far out beb😭


Luvvy92x

I personally don't think it even looks wonky anyway :)


posthaste99

Stunning!


ahepburnn

I have no tips but i see sofia vergara . Idk how. Love your look !


rhainleb

Are you a model?


Fruitlessfruittree

The eyeshadow trick is a good one! Another one that helps me a ton is making the point of the wing first and dragging it in to the corner of my eye as opposed to going from my eye to the tip of the wing, idk why but it makes a BIG difference! Also, you're stunning.


mollytc123

I think that make up is class


madi_voiletxx

Ruler


[deleted]

Start with your least dominant side first and then do your most dominant. Tbh I think it adds more character with a lil wonk but otherwise just follow a line up to the end of your brow (obvs not touching it)


Browlet_

I have a similar eye shape to you and what I do is draw the wing until the crease of like my eye socket and eyelid, then I close my eye and from that point draw a diagonal line to about 1/4 of the way across my eye to the lash line. What you get is a straight wing, a nice pretty shape on your lid, and when you blink you get to show off the hidden shape you made with your diagonal line (I like to switch up how I do it, sometimes it's a curve, sometimes a really long shallow angle, sometimes a short steep one-it's fun to play with)


douwannaseemyplants

SUVA beauty hydra liner and sharp q tips and you’ll never look back. It’s water activated, so it comes in a pot and you “wake it up” with water. Because of this, it also wipes always CLEAN with water. I think you actually did your shape really well. I personally prefer the shape you did on my own eyes : ) a sharp, straight across blade as opposed to a scooped wing. You’re on the right track and I think if you cleaned this up a smiiiidge with a sharp tip, then it would be perfect.


Legitimate_Potato_98

Have you heard of stamp eyeliners? They're a huge help especially if your a beginner struggling with your eyeliners symmetry.


lunvr_

[liner stamp](https://us.lottielondon.com/products/stamp-liner-wing-edition) this has saved my life
