Nope.

I'm bad at this. ._.

Did you use a brush & well liner? Or felt tip? I gave up on liquid liner until I discovered the Sephora felt tip eyeliner. Now I wear it pretty much daily. Dem wingtips, man.

Felt tip. I think that my hands shake a bit too much.

Aaahhh, yeah that makes sense. I heard that if you can at least brace your elbow on something, like the sink or counter, it can really help steady your hand. Works for some people, I guess!

Try a shot of whiskey in the morning, really calms down the shakes.

I use liquid liner with a felt tip (tried a brush before and made waaaay too much of a mess with it). Bracing your elbow does help if you can lean forward and rest it against something like your thigh or the counter!

also for this it's really just practice makes perfect...i have poked myself in the eye many times when I started playing with makeup, trust me Tongue it was a progression to move from pencil -> felt tip -> brush tip

It's going to suck the first few times you try. That's just the way it is. It's all about practice!

Liquid eyeliner is amazing, but definitely something you have to get use. I still can't apply eyeliner well with a brush... and that's with makeup school under my belt. ; w ;

I find that felt tip eyeliners give more control, even with shaky hands. And as others said, bracing your elbow helps too!

I need to practice on a day when I don't have to be somewhere.

Unfortunately I don't really have a counter to brace my elbow on. Maybe when I get my room fixed so I can have a vanity in here.

lol my makeup desk is my computer desk. It's a constant battle of space between mouse and keyboards and all the tiny cute.
But yes I can never do eyeliner standing up either!!

A wall or door may be able to help, if you have a mirror on said wall/door. :3
