I just found this and OMG!!! I finally "get" it now. This breaks it down and makes it so simple and easy to follow. Thank you so much for sharing this.
I love the look of this! I've been practicing and gradually it's getting better, but something I continually struggle with is that my wings don't last through the day despite using long-wearing or waterproof liquid and gel liners. I know it's probably because the outer corners of my eyes, between the upper and lower lash line, gets oily and that oil migrates up towards the wing. I've tried using mattifying primer there and/or powder and nothing seems to work.
Anyone else have a problem like this?
Yep, tried that, too.Have yu tried setting yur wings with black matte eyeshadow using an angled brush?
Have you tried Shelaq by Benefit? My eyelids tend to be a bit oily and Shelaq is a lifesaver! I apply my liquid eyeliner and then apply the the Shelaq over it using a fine tipped brush. I usually then layer another layer of my eyeliner over the Shelaq because it can look sort of shinny and I prefer a more matte look. Your eyeliner will not budge! I use this technique whenever I need my eyeliner to last all day (like my wedding) and I swear by it!I love the look of this!

Actually, I'm attending a Sephora VIB event at Benefit next week, so I'll check it out then.Have you tried Shelaq by Benefit? My eyelids tend to be a bit oily and Shelaq is a lifesaver!
