There’s nothing better than getting the perfect sharp eye-liner flick – Taylor Swift has even sung about it!
But it can be hard to get the perfect crisp look when using a waterproof liner or brush: if your hand wobbles slightly you immediately end up with a messy or smudgy wing.
There are a million tricks supposed to help, involving everything from applying sellotape next to your eye to using an eyelash curler to simply print liner on to your top lid.
But one canny Instagramer might just have come up with the easiest hack yet – and you’ll likely have everything you need in your make-up bag already.
Karol Resende is a Brazilian beauty influencer who regularly wows her 920k followers with make-up hacks, product reviews and quick tutorials.
And in a recent video that racked up more than 400k likes, she showed her nifty trick for ensuring her eyeliner always looks on point.

All you need is a pair or tweezers and a black pencil, the make-up maestro disclosed in the comments.
Simply take your liner and coat the sharp end of the tweezers, before very carefully using it to stamp the inside of your eye to create a perfect cat-like effect.
Next, you want to do the same on the outer-eye, using the tweezers edge to stamp a perfectly positioned flick slanting upwards.
Carefully connect the two using the pencil, and voilà – flawless looking eye make-up everytime.
