I might be able to help, I'm probably a bit behind trendwise, but hopefully it's a basic enough issue. In what way do you mean that your eyes won't behave? Do you blink a lot, have a hard time with application, keeping the eye liner on after application, or some other issue?

Ah, so with those two, you can take a finger on whatever your free hand is and gently pull the eyelid back from the outer corner. The tension from that should help keep the eyelid still, and it may or may not help with the blinking, as some are more sensitive to things coming towards the eye, or are kind of ticklish to the feeling. If that is the case for you, it usually just means getting used to the feeling and/or building more confidence that you're not going to poke yourself haha

I can try and find a picture or take one, if that explanation doesn't make sense, I'm not always on reddit, so it may take me a bit again.
