Use scotch tape as a guide :)

I've been doing winged liner for 3-4 years and here is what I've learned.
first off make sure you are comfortable and your arm is well rested on something steady.
some people start off different inner corner, outer corner, wing but I personally like to start off with the wing going from the lower lash line and pull it up towards the tail of my eyebrow. after that I start going into the inner corner with short thin stokes and it sort of makes a triangle type shape so I fill that part in making sure I can't see any part of my skin.
oh and I make sure I am following my natural eye shape and once I'm done I'll thicken it up to my liking making sure the inner corner is thinner than the rest of my eye.

here are my favorite eyeliners and some tips :

liquid (NYC, almay) - be patient and careful with liquid.

felt tip (smashbox) - make sure you are holding it horizontally.

gel (Tarte clay paint) - if you want a nice sharp wing then make sure you are using a thin precise brush, although you can use a angled also.

pencil (Loreal) - I don't recommend pencils for winged liner since you can't get any sharp wings with it but if you do make sure the pencil is always sharpened.

eyeshadow/ powder (any) - I would only use eyeshadow/ powder if you want smoked out winged liner.
personally I'm not a fan of using tape.
oh and I use the tarte tartiest (gel) eyeliner daily, I'd rather use gel than any other.

Thanks this really helped.

Here you go Lovely! These silly sounding tips really work, and are probably the most important. Can't wait to see what you've done with all your new skills!😁 http://youtu.be/U5VRmQxLVmk.
