Can someone help me to learn how to apply eyeliner to my eyes?

i have always loved the sopfia loran's eye liner looked . now i'm 50ty something and i would like to try that look.Can someone help me to learn how to apply eyeliner to my eyes?
Steps:


1. Choose an eyeliner appropriate for your eye color. Brown, navy and charcoal accent light eyes well, while brown and plum shades flatter brown eyes. Make sure your liner complements the color of your shadow.





2. Consider the type of look you're after. Pencil eyeliner gives your eyes soft definition, while liquid versions offer precision and drama. You can also moisten dark eye shadow and apply it with a small, flat brush.





3. Prepare a cake liner or a dark eye shadow by applying a small amount of water to your brush. Or, if you're using a pencil eyeliner, ensure that you've sharpened the pencil adequately.





4. Move the wet brush gently through your cake liner or dark shadow. Hold the brush or pencil as you would hold a pen.





5. Tilt your head back slightly and bring your eyes to a half-open state. This creates a good angle for application, while allowing you to see what you're doing.





6. Draw a line across the upper lid just above the lashes, from the inside corner to the outside corner of the eye. If you're using liquid liner, allow it to dry before opening your eyes all the way, or the color may transfer into the crease of your eye.





7. If you used a brush or a pencil, soften the look by gently smudging the line with your brush, a cotton swab or your finger.





8. Line the lower lids. Moving from the outside edge inward, draw a line on the outer two-thirds of the lid or more, depending on the look you're going for. Your line should be slightly thicker at the outside corner, becoming thinner as it moves in toward your nose. Using your brush or pencil, lightly stroke the area. If using a liquid liner, apply it in one smooth stroke. Apply less color so your eyes don't appear raccoonlike.








Tips:


You may find eyeliner, particularly the liquid version, difficult and messy the first few times. Practice and have patience.





Wash brushes regularly with makeup remover or a mild gel shampooCan someone help me to learn how to apply eyeliner to my eyes?
my gosh I wish I knew, seriously.


I am terrified of putting eyeliner pencils near my eye...
just line around the rims of your eyes
Its simple actually. Just dont be scared! All you have to do is pull the skin below your eye down and then apply your eye liner. Make sure your eyes arent watery and make sure the pencil is not too sharp and no where near blunt!Go from the inner part of your eye to the outer and back again. Continue until you think there is enough. Try it and eventually you'll get used to it! Hope i could help.
