This style demands you to utilize eyeliner to create winged lines at the borders of your eyes, as the name suggests.

Since the invention of eyeliner or eye makeup, winged eyeliner has been used to create a variety of eye shapes.

If you’re a newbie, the various possibilities for what to use (weather, pencil, gel, liquid, felt, etc.) may be overwhelming. Choose a pencil. Why? Because it’s the simplest and best place to start for eyeliner newbies. Pencils go on smoothly and are more forgiving of shaky hands than liquid or gel.

For beginners, an eyeliner pencil is an easiest and most fail-proof eyeliner to use. Simply hold it like a regular pencil and draw along your lash line. If you’re feeling brave and want to try your hand at liquid liner, I say go for it! However, use a thin liquid eyeliner pen or simply line use a pencil liner first and then layer the liquid eyeliner on top. Make sure you have Q-tips and makeup remover available in case you make any mistakes.
