Published in Eyeliner Application 2 mins read

Using a winged eyeliner brush is often highlighted as a simple way to create a defined wing, suitable even for those new to eyeliner.

Core Technique for Creating a Wing

Based on demonstrations of how to use this tool, the primary technique involves using the brush to pull out a little bit of a wing from the outer corner of your eye. This motion helps shape the eyeliner into the desired wing shape.

Ideal Placement

For effective application when creating a wing with this brush, it is suggested to keep it just on the kind of outer third of the eye. Focusing the application in this specific area allows you to build and define the wing without needing to apply liner across the entire lash line first, which can be easier to manage, especially for beginners.

Why It's Easy

Many find this type of brush user-friendly because of its design, which can make creating a symmetrical and sharp wing simpler. As noted in a video discussing this brush, users often comment on how easy that is, labeling the brush as Perfect for Beginners! due to its ability to help achieve a clean wing shape with less effort.

Simple Steps for Use

While techniques vary slightly based on the brush shape and product used, a basic approach involves:

  • Dipping or loading the tip of the brush with your preferred eyeliner product (gel or liquid).
  • Placing the brush on the outer third of the eye, near the lash line.
  • Using the brush to pull out a wing in an upward and outward motion from the outer corner.
  • Connecting the tip of the wing back to the lash line if desired for a thicker line.

This focused application on the outer part of the eye, combined with the brush's design, simplifies the process of achieving a crisp, winged look.
