How to Use a Bobby Pin to Apply Winged Eyeliner

Get a picture-perfect winged eyeliner look with the help of a bobby pin — no, really. Simply coat the open end of the bobby pin in liner pigment before using it as a stamp to outline a pointed wing shape. Sounds easy enough, right?

The bobby pin creates the perfect wing shape, but you still need to line it up with the outer corner of your eye. After you get the placement right, press down and you'll see that you're left with a hollowed-out wing shape. Extend the wing to your lash line, colour it in, and repeat on side two.
