Eyeliner recommendations and winged liner help?

hi!

So I’m a teen girl, and due to a disorder called trichotillomania, I no longer have any eyelashes :(

just a few baby ones. I’m mostly bald on my eyelids, about %95 bald honestly 💔

Being a teen, I can’t go to school without my eyeliner on because of how vulnerable/and susceptible I am to bullying without eyelashes, even attending in a Christian, private secondary school, I’m still very cooked 😭

I currently use the “NYX epic wear waterproof eye and body liquid liner in black”

for my eyelids, and the “NYX Epic Ink waterproof liquid liner pen in black” as well to make little wings to draw away attention from my eyelids.

I would say that it stays on fine. It doesn’t rub off unless I purposely rub my eyes.

Originally I only used the NYX pen eyeliner for my whole eye look, but throughout the day it would come off my eyelids (the wings would stay, the same NYX eyeliner pen product as on the eyelids) and I ended up using the jar version, now it rarely comes off.

Do you recommend any eyeliners that are affordable, waterproof and not a pain to get off? I use a daily rotation of these makeup removers for different stages of removing them.

- Bubble Magic Melt Makeup Remover & Cleanser

- Marcelle oil Waterproof makeup remover

- Garnier micellar water

- WINGED LINER -

I also need tips with winged liner, because it’s often lopsided or not symmetrical enough. Often, My left eyeliner wing angles up whereas my right eye wing angles down. It’s weird. I try my best to do those wings.

I’ve tried a few types of simple styles, and I’ve used stencils and bare hands before, and that one trick on tiktok where you turn away quickly while moving the pen near your eye (definitely doesn’t work)

Doing my eyeliner every morning gets super tiring. I’ve been doing eyeliner since September 2025 now.

On some days, it looks absolutely GORGEOUS, PERFECT. I would literally sleep with it on if I could, on other days, it looks ehh, okay, or TERRIBLE.

Please help! I wanna feel pretty again :(

Thank you !
