If u want that pointy eyeliner look please buy urself one of the pointy tip eyeliner pens. Save urself if u cannot draw on ur face well ToT

One of these babies. Most eyeliner brands make em so buy whatever brand/color u like. They also come in thicker versions if u want real thick wing eyeliner
You just draw a line out from your outer eye, following the curve of it. So either from corner of bottom eyelid and curved (so straight if you want a straight line), or as a line from the corner in whatever angle u want the wing to be. Until it's as long as u want. Then u connect to the tip, and draw a line back to the top of ur eye where u want the line to stop. If u like a thin wing eyeliner, ur first sweep out from ur eye curve will be all u gotta do. Alternatively if you want you can just trace the top of your eye edge (starting wherever you want it to start so I usually pick the middle of my eye or near the outer edge) and then draw out a little line at the end in the angle you like. If you want thicker eyeliner you can just keep adding to the top line from end point to beginning point. Or you can draw a line from end point of the wing to the inner corner of your eye and just fill it in (very e girl big winged eyeliner), or draw a line from your chosen start point (like middle of eye) to end of wing, then fill in. But again if you got a pen tip to your eyeliner, you may not have to draw and fill in at all - the first sweep of eyeliner will probably the entire shape in one go and you're done.

So like this if you want a huge wing. And depending on your eyeliner brush thickness, you can get an eyeliner like below in one sweep (and the style above can be done in one sweep if you buy a Thick felt tip eyeliner pen so again you can avoid having to draw).

This above can be one sweep from the middle or edge of your eye and upward at angle of your choice (I usually follow my bottom eyelid angle like the pic above does). Then ur done. One quick line drawn and ur done.
Tumblr media
This one above can also be drawn in one sweep. Either with a thicker eyeliner pen, or you draw out the wing. Then you draw from wing tip to your inner eye corner in a straight line. And you usually don't have to fill it in cause the eyeliner pen is thick enough it fills it in as you swipe.
Like.
If you want to use liquid eyeliner yes you're gonna have to draw every point. But if you use one of the felt tip pen eyeliners? They're already shaped with a point and a thickness as you draw, so it's very easy to get stable edges and perfect points. It makes eyeliner take less than a minute if you're just doing a small wing, and only a couple minutes max if you're doing a big huge wing like e girls (giving you a couple minutes because bigger wings have more room to accidentally draw one at a different angle or mess up the point as you make it longer and longer lol and then u might need to wipe one off and redraw it the same angle and shape as the other).
Also while I'm at it. For a non winged eyeliner look, pencil eyeliner is great. You can buy it as a thick pencil (for a more thick smudged eyeliner look) or a thin pencil (for eyeliner to be around your eye edges just outlining mainly). Just like the felt tip pen liquid kind above, you can draw and if they're sharpened you'll likely have an okay time doing wings etc if desired (though the effect will look more smudged/blurred than liquid eyeliners), or thickening the lines as desired. But for just a basic eyelined look you can just take any pencil eyeliner, and Trace the edge of your eyeline. On the top start where you'd like (I like to start in middle cause I don't like my inner corners to have eyeliner) and then trace to the edge of your eye. Draw out a bit further if you want a wing. Then from the outer edge on the bottom, trace the undereye edge to add color there if you want (again I tend to just put eyeliner on the outer lower corner to the middle, but you can do it all the way to the inner corner). And bam you're done. All you have to do is trace the edge of your eyes. Also pencil eyeliners often come in a lot more rainbow colors which is fun
#rant#makeup#mainly this is for like#if y have never tried felt tip eyeliners#cause oh man is it a difference between one quick sweep and ur done#versus bottle based liquid eyeliners where you have to work muchhhhh harder to achieve straight consistent lines#eyeliner#i am not a makeup expert thus is like middle school level expertize so likr#if ur a makeup pro this aint gonna apply to u#i dont even know how coverup works or why concealer exists or why primer exists or how those combin3#another quick af makeup tip for very lazy smoky eyes#pick a light colof and a dark one. u can pick medium colors in middle too if u want but lazy version#u put a dark eyeshadow color following middle to edge of top eyelid. bring it up about to that part where your eye creases#or where yr eye would rest underneath basixally if ur eyes wete closed#then take the light color eyeshadow and put in inner corner. and sweep a bit right under ur outer edge of eyebrow#then blend with fingers ot keep dragging the dark or light color out closer until they meet and blend as desired#if u have middle colors they can go in middle of ur eyelid between light and dark color#so u got a gradient of inner eye light. middle eyelid medium. outer eyelid dark color. ans a bit#of lighter color right above the dark portion to right ynder ur eyebrows. which helps create contrast#the light portion under eyebrows to inner cornee can be extended to touch if u wish.#portion under eyebrow is optional and works best as a highlighter or neutral lightwr colot that#looks similar to ur skin so it is less of a contrast to ur skin#so the smoky eye looks to be a dark color blending into ur skin. but the lighter color isnt quite ur skin so it creates contrast#the lighter color doesnt have to match skin just be less pigmented so it shows more of ur natural skin underneath/is less intense than the#other color u oicked.#so for example i do: bubblegum pink inner eye and lightly patted under eyebrow outer edge#then blood red outer half of eyelid on top. and a lirtle red just underneath outer edge of bottom eyelid#its doesnt match my skin tone but the pink is easier to fade/put on less of so it gradienrs into my skin tone. compared to the blood red#so if u did blue ud do like silver or grey for the inner corner#and if u dont want color to go up to eyebrow just dont add the under eyebrow portion
