My eyes are more hooded than hers. I find that starting my wing a little below my outer corner gets me a nicer line. It’s a less “bat wing” though. So depends on the look you’re going for. But just another tip for hooded eye girls. 😊

Looking straight into the mirror has been the absolute best advice I’ve ever received for my winged liner maybe for my makeup period, cause like you, I don’t have hooded eyes but my upper lid does exactly the same thing. My liner has never looked better.

You're lucky that you don't have hooded eyes. I can't do any beautiful looks like cut creases because my eyes are so ugly and hooded. One eyeshadow color and that's it. I've had literal breakdowns over my hooded eyes and the fact that everyone else can do amazing eye looks. It works have been a hobby of mine, but obviously God/the universe/whatever was telling me with my hooded eyes, that's not my hobby in life, obviously. I have about 200 screenshots on my phone of beautiful eye looks and I need to delete them because I don't think that I can do three of them. Surgery to fix my eyes would be outrageously expensive

This is one of the best tips I’ve seen when doing this technique: Initially, smile a huge, cheeky grin that involves your eyes, and use a light brown shadow on a liner brush to mark a point higher than where your cheek pushes up your outer lower lid into your upper, hooded lid (but without raising your eyebrows). *This is the benchmark of where your liner shouldn’t fall under.* As you emote, it ensures the liner always maintains an upward swept appearance to the eye instead of pulling it down.

Getting older is such an interesting journey... I'm 54 now, and almost every year I have to learn entirely new ways to do my makeup as my face shape changes. This is by far the must useful tutorial I've seen that not only helps beautiful young faces with hooded eyes, but also older faces who are having to deal with eyes that are getting more hooded by the day! Thank you, I can't wait to get all dressed up and try this. I usually just stop my eyeliner and blend in at the end of my eyelid because I just haven't found a way to make wings look ok until now :)

So annoying when my camera goes out of focus for the important parts... 😑 That's what happens when you film yourself 😭 EDIT: The angle and how thick it gets is really going to depend on your eye shape and how hooded it is. So just keep that in mind 🙌🏼

I am VERY picky about voices and presentation, hate how some on youtube go on and on and on and yu have to fast forward to the important stuff, like they are so conceited they think we need to hear every tiny detail of their lives. For such a stunningly beautiful woman this presenter has a calming yet no nonsense skill, no conceit in it, it is IDEAL for anyone (esp those of us who hate vocal fry on so many youtubers.) Maybe it's the musician in me but people discount just how important a good voice is. And seriously she does explain stuff really well, for a makeup dummy like myself.

when i first got into eye-liner, i would criticise myself so much. I thought i was the worst at eye-liner and/or my eyes were fucked up. But then I discovered I had hooded eyes and I was finally able to learn and perfect my eye-liner. Now it's one of my favourite pieces and It's so much fun!

My cat loves your voice. Whenever im watching your videos around her , if i pause the video she starts meowing and crying and she doesnt stop until i play your videos again hahaha idk its weird sometimes i just play your videos on like a playlist mode for her she just loves the sound of your voice

I immediately tried both these techniques while watching your video. There’s a bit of a learning curve, but after the 3rd or 4th try, it turned out pretty good. As I got older & my lids started to droop more, I pretty much gave up wearing winged liner. Thank you for this! You’re making me feel pretty again.🥰

Hi, saw this video about a week ago and have had several successful liner attempts. I’ve never been able to make winged liner look flattering on me, and this trick works. thanks so much!

Girl I been doing make up for years and never mastered a wing liner due to my heavily hooded not to mentioned AGING lids and I watched this and omg I now can perfect my wing liner !! Thank you ! I’m going to literally tell my tiny one hundred subscribers thanks to you I mastered a wing liner !! Thank you thank you !!!❤❤❤❤❤❤

I love how you keep your awkward self notes in the video and don’t edit them out.

I used to do my winged liner with my eyes closed. Doing it looking straight on is the best advice you could give. def changed my wing eyeliner game now and they are almost always on point

I love how you don’t use any filters or anything, you can see your beautiful skin !!!! Thank you for keeping it real !!! Queen !!

I appreciate your videos so much. Your voice is so nice and calm. Also no unnecessary 10 minute long intro- straight to the point. Thank you

When I tell you this tutorial saved my life.

I used to be a pro at winged liner. Like, I could do it while driving & barely looking. That was 10 years ago… I stopped wearing makeup for awhile & stopped wearing winged liner. But lately I’ve been trying to get back into wearing makeup. I went to do my old look & I couldn’t do it. Bc my eyes have also changed. Same as you. I was so upset bc I I love that look.. but the older I get the more “hooded” my eyes get…. When I saw all of these other tutorials the eyeliner always looked like it was just too much.. more than I normally would wear for everyday. Too glam. But this look could go both ways. I love this. Thank you for posting this bc you have no idea how much this has messed w/ me! I know it’s stupid. I’m getting older. But I’m not old. But it’s made me consider Botox & it’s made me start looking at myself differently… like, I don’t feel older. I don’t look older. But I am getting older & it’s nice to know that I’m not alone & that we aren’t OLD! So hearing you say this made me feel so much better about myself. I’ve never been one to care too much about aging or wrinkles or whatever. But for some reason this eye thing has really messed w/ me. I decided against Botox bc I don’t want any needles near my eyes & I have an addictive personality so I don’t really want to start down that path. But this tutorial has really helped me not just do my makeup similar to how I used to.. but helped me see that aging doesn’t mean old & all of us are aging everyday! So thanks dude.

Dudeeee the smokyness of the brushed one is so cool

I truly don’t care if you have hooded eyes or not. You are absolutely STUNNING 🥰😍

the NYX smoke liners are AMAAAZING!!!!!!

Those wings are off the charts amazing.

I'm obsessed with the quality of your camera

3.25 when she starts. Amazing as always 😍✨❤️

I love videos like this so much. Clear, concise, and short enough that I can watch them again in the morning before I do my makeup for a quick refresher on the technique. Thank you Alex!

That "step" you gave it at the very end looks soooooo doooope.

Exactly what I needed to see. I'm turning 44, and my eyelids have totally fallen. The struggle is real. Thank you so much for this!

Can I just say, your lighting is some of the best I have seen. You can actually SEE the makeup. I am so sick lighting that blends everything together. I can't walk around outside with a filter on my face or a full lighting rig! Thank you

You tutorial is super easy and made huge difference!

U not only have hooded eyes but also asymetrical hooded etes which is perfect for us hooded eyed girls. Thanx for the tutorials

This is exactly what I’ve been doing for the last 15+ years and I’m so excited you’re showing this!! I’ve always felt like I had to do wings “wrong” to fit my eye shape.

Love how beautiful she is with minimal makeup😍

you are GORGEOUS + love how calm and well you explain things

Your videos are so informative and educational. You are the last make up guru left and I love that we don’t hear you in drama. Not to be rude, I just want to learn make up 😭😭. Like I don’t need to know what you eat everyday

IT WAS DEFINITELY THE BEST ADVICE!!! i'm using the same eyeliner gel and THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE TUTORIAL

I have hooded eyes and it really helps me a lot! Thank you for your dedication for this community!

This was so good. Extremely helpful! Simple and detailed❤️ loved it✨

This was EXTREMELY helpful! Thank you so much!

Love this and your videos! you can do a thin one too by keeping your eye open the whole time - draw the thin wing how you want it to look, then close the lid and gently fill in the gap. It will look more bat-wing like when the eye is closed but is a cool graphic look, and perfect when the eye is open.

Hi! I can't tell you how many eyeliner tutorials I've watched and nothing worked for me until I found your video. Thank you so much for it! I get it right every time now 👁️👁️

I struggle creating winged eyes that look the same or similar to eachother. So I decided after many years of struggling to buy a eyeliner stamp. It has been a game changer but I do like the idea of placing my eyeliner of a slight angle. Thanks for the suggestion 💕

I have slightly hooded eyes like yours but I draw a full on eyeliner on all the visible part of my mobile lid, that plus a wing at the end is chef’s kiss. 😘

My eyes are almost exactly the same shape and size as yours and a more horizontal version of this look is my favourite way to make them up. Because of this video I finally have a way to consistently get that look (before it was often luck!) Thank you so much and also for all of your chilled out, clear, and informative videos. Lots of love from the UK xxx

After I start the wing underneath the eyebrow I'll usually make a line from the inner core first and it helps me connect better.

Yasssss! I so needed this. My eyeshadow would look so good with wing liner and it helps to hide the lash band. You’re amazing Alex!!!!!!
