Loving the look: Flick eyeliner

I do love  a bit of liquid liner, but I always go for the safe option and keep the line quite thin. These pictures are from a recent event I went to, the make-up artist applied this thick black line with a flick at the corner and I absolutely love it – but can’t seem to master it quite myself!
(Please excuse the bit of flaking under the eye, the pic was taken at the end of a long day!)

No matter how hard I try, I always chicken out of making the line thick enough for this look! Any tips for how I can overcome my dramatic liner fear???

    I’ve been using this guide (http://musingsofamakeupartist.blogspot.com/2011/08/how-to-eyeliner.html) which has really helped! Essentially, you do the flick first, then do the rest of the lid. Seems to be much easier when you do it in parts!

  3. My flicks vary depending on how early it is/how bleary eyed I am at the time – sometimes I’m not as neat which is when it becomes a thicker line 🙂

    This look is gorgeous on you! I wish I could be so sure with liquid eyeliner… it always turns out a mess.

    Love this! 🙂

    I have days where I do a thin line but I actually find it harder to do a thin line than a thick one! I never seem to be able to get my flicks the same length/angle – doh! xx
