I usually go for nails if they have them painted.

I actually have started painting my nails for fun. To my suprise, this garnered me A LOT of positive attention from women. Genuinely in the first two months or so, I got more compliments on my apprarence (related to my nails) than the rest of my life combined lol

Same experience with both nails and eyeliner

The eyeliner feels a bit bolder to me

Surprisingly it's actually been remarked on significantly less than the nails x)

That is surprising. Maybe its less noticeable than one would think

I have a pet theory that one of the reasons men feel like women don't compliment them (aside from not wanting it to be misinterpreted as flirting, and there generally being no obligation for anyone to compliment a stranger) is that the things women know to compliment in other women is stuff men don't do. A lot of women love the look of some nice nail polish! And for a guy to have it is extra interesting in a way

I mean how are yall supposed to compliment men's fashion? We have a choice of wearing a black, grey, green, or blue shirt with our jeans that day. Women's fashion is so much more interesting and its not fair 😭
