How do we manage to draw the tailed eyeliner, which is an important part of cat eye makeup, properly? The good news is that there are many methods that make it easier to apply eyeliner.
How to Apply Tailed Eyeliner with an Angled Brush?
I am one of those who think that angled brushes are especially perfect for this type of tailed or winged eyeliner drawing. Frankly, I don’t think there is an easier way than this. On the other hand, a clear and superb result emerges. At this point, the first tip is to wet the brush a little before putting the eyeliner on the brush.
Create an angle so that the long bristled part of the angled brush points to the point where your eyebrow ends and apply the eyeliner to this point.
Continue to apply the same brush over your eyelid, starting from the end of the line you drew in an inverted direction to create the upper curve of the tail. This line on the upper eyelid should taper dramatically to about the middle of your pupil. Then the eye should end on your inner rim.
Actually, our job is easier after we create the baselines, all we have to do is fill in these lines.
How to apply winged eyeliner with tape?
In fact, one of the most used eyeliner application methods by those who have problems with applying properly is using tape. Two important reasons are that it does not slip and that you can give the desired angle with the help of tape before applying the eyeliner. However, before sticking the tape to your skin, remove the stickiness of the tape a little. For this, it is enough to stick the tape on your hand a few times and remove it.
Cut a tape measuring approximately 2 cm and stick it from the outer corner of your eyes to the end of your eyebrow at the angle you want your tailed eyeliner to be.
Then create the tail section by following the tape with the help of an eyeliner brush or eyeliner pen.
Especially if you have round eyes, it will be necessary to extend the eyeliner towards the eyebrows to make them look more slanted.
To create the upper curve of the tail, start from the end of the line you drew and continue to apply it over your eyelid.
Eyeliner using a Spoon
When you search for easy ways to draw eyeliner on the Internet, one of the most common methods is to use a spoon. As someone who has tried almost every method, I must say that unlike the previous 2 methods, it is more difficult. Because you are trying to both keep the spoon straight and create a smooth line, not to mention the sliding spoon from time to time!
