How To - Winged Eyeliner Cheat

So this is just a bit of a quickie tutorial post...
Thought I'd share my ja'mazing cheat on how to get matching winged eyeliner. I also am a victim of the un-matching flicks, where the first one you do will seriously bang and then you just can't match the other and it turns into one big mess of Amy Winehouse eyes. 
So to avoid that tragedy, I have made up this extremely easy way to sort it, or at least I think I've made it up but whatever.
In advance, I did not sort my face for this, so excuse eyebrows and dark circles. It's exam period and I am allowed to look gross.


WHAT YOU WILL NEED:

• Eyeliner - any type, kohl, gel, pen liner etc
• post it notes or sellotape, or if you have micro-tape that will work perfectly
• your face

So, these are the two eyeliners I own; the first, obviously clinque, is a gel liner in dark brown and an angle brow brush for application, you can also use a bent liner brush but I find this quicker. Oh and top tip, it helps if you dampen the brush beforehand so you can get a clean line (something I may or may not have learnt from the film Burlesque) The second liner is a Topshop black felt tip style liner, and I find these are the easiest type to use.

Next you will need an individual post-it note, tear away around the blue line, the smaller it is, the easier it is to fit where you want the flick against your eye.



Then, place the post-it  note in line with your lower lash line, but underneath all your eyelashes and at the slant you want the flick. This is so when you open your eye the post-it doesn't pull half of your eyelashes out, and speaking from experience here, it is an uncomfortable process.

Basically, you just trace your upper lash line following out along the paper as far as you want to go. I'm
gunna say leave it for a few seconds, probably for about 10 just to let the liner dry. These pictures were before I decided to rip the post-it smaller and as you can see it was causing mass aggravation.

There we go, I saw the error of my ways and made the post-it small and cute, much easier.

Don't worry too much if that turns out a little messy, that bit doesn't show up. And if it does wrap a pencil end in a make up wipe or whatever and neaten it up.

Final step, after a few seconds, peel off the post-it (slowly) and Voila! 

Perfect flicks everytime!

You are so welcome xo
