    hey guys, here are answers to the most asked questions i've seen in the comments:
    1) i used all makeup geek eyeshadows for this look.The ones I use to create the "good side" are peach smoothie, creme brulee, mocha and mirage, and sometimes corrupt to darken the lashline. i didn't list them because you can use any shadows you have, it is not necessary to get these exact ones.
    2) the "good side" eyeliner is the Isadora Glossy Eyeliner Waterproof in chrome black. I live in Berlin, Germany, so I get it from Douglas here. I don't think it's available in the States unfortunately, but you may be able to find it on ebay. I don't know a dupe either because it is pretty unique.
    3) "good side" and "bad side" is not meant to be a judgement but is just for distinction and made it easier for me to structure the video.
    4) for those asking about my eyebrows, i did get them done here in berlin at a place called belladerma. they are not microbladed but done with regular permanent makeup using long time liner colors, and i have both hair strokes and shading. i drew on my shape myself, and i did tell them exactly how i want them and came in for several touchups until i was happy with them. they have lasted me almost 3 years now! there is some fading though, so i will probably get them touched up some time next year.
    5) I love you guys! :)

    THE BAD SIDE IS LITERALLY ME WHAT HAVE I BEEN DOING ALL THIS TIME OMG. This video explains why my eyeshadow never looked like the tutorials even though I followed every step perfectly. I always wondered what I was doing wrong and the answer is nothing, I just wasn't doing my eye makeup so that it would suit my eye shape. This was a life changing video...THANK YOU

    This is, BY FAR, the best hooded eyes tutorial I've seen. My mind is BLOWN.
    Every video I've seen has emphasized product names and shades, but not technique. This is just...art.
    I've literally asked "explain it like I'm 5 years old", and nobody has until now.
    Going to a wedding this summer, and can't wait to try this! I'm gonna practice. Thank you so much!

    I am 33 years old and have been wearing makeup since 5th grade. I’ve never felt super confident with how I’ve done my makeup. I have heavy hooded eyes and I tend to like a darker eye look. I was watching your video and decided to take all of my makeup off and do my makeup just like you showed us. I cannot tell you how happy this made me. Makes me want to cry because it makes me feel more confident. Thank you so much ❤️

    First off, I’m pretty sure I’ve never commented on a RUclips video in my life. I’m in my early 30s and I don’t know much about makeup. I learned a bit from my mom and picked up things along the way. I was getting so frustrated with particularly eyeliner because on everyone else it looks so pretty but mine always smudged and kept going on my “hood”, and i just didn’t get why! And my stupid eyeshadow would smudge on my hood too! I stumbled upon this video and this is life changing. I never knew I had “hooded eyes” (honestly never even thought about it) but from everything you described, I was like oh yeah that is something I do. I just tried to do makeup how you suggested and it is transformative. Thank you so much for making this!!

  • @szczuplutka85

I thought I was getting old... thought of buying antiwrinkle cream, etc. you made me realize it’s not age, it’s shape. I Care. Thank you 😚

  • @SaraFaria16
    @SaraFaria16 8 месяцев назад +5

    You said "No one cares" BUT I tell you I do care! This validation of my eyes shape was super impacting and meaningful to me.

    Theres an obvious reason why a good blending brush and a good quality eyeliner make a difference if you have hooded eyes! I tend to do my liner 3/4 of my eye so I get a so called "lifting effect." 😊😉

    • @RedneckNerd617
      @RedneckNerd617 6 лет назад +3

      Satu Koponen um.... no? My go to eyeliner is the maybelline define a line for pencil, nyx for liquid. Both drugstore. My go to blending brush is bh cosmetics. Came in a set of 7 for 10 bucks. It's all preference. You don't need to go jump and spend 20 plus on a brush or liner. And eye shape doesn't matter

    • @maddieclarke258
      @maddieclarke258 6 лет назад +10

      Julia Perez I don't think they meant expensive when they said good quality. Plenty of inexpensive products are amazing quality just as some expensive products are kind of crappy. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I interpreted their comment as saying that you have to do some searching to find what works for you rather than trying to work with the first item you pick up.

      The way we use to do our make up in 2021 is a replica of the 90's.Her "bad" eye reminds me more of an 80's look that makeup was more messy.Cut crease started at 90's.I was in highschool when we rocked a cut crease eyelook.

    Glad I came upon this older video because it really helped me to understand what I could be doing differently or not doing at all. Especially the crease being higher and not highlighting too far down from the eyebrows. My makeup is looking much better now. Thanks so much for the help!

    I have no lid space. My hood touches my lash line. The good part is I don't have to curl my lashes cause my hood does it for me.. lol
    I can't do a cat eye or a flick cause you can't see it if I do try it looks like Amy Winehouse did my liner..
    My eyes are also deep set so I have to watch darker shadows towards the inner eye part.
    Lots and lots of experimenting on trying to figure out what works and what doesn't.

      @redskyie 6 лет назад +4

      Betty June on the other hand, those of us with hooded eyes can pull off the full smoky eye in situations where it would look a bit much on our non-hooded sisters! I really recommend practicing and perfecting the smoky eye - it doesn't have to be black, any darker colour that looks nice with your eye colour can look stunning as a smoky eye. Plus i personally find it much, much easier than trying to place shadows precisely on my lid or hood!

I have been applying my liquid liner in a way that accentuated my hood all these years! I tried your suggestions and not only did I take a fraction of the time doing my eye make up, I loved my new look! Thank you so much for sharing !

  • @rosethorn0232
    @rosethorn0232 6 лет назад +12

    I agree with everything you said here, except the bit about eyebrows. I have downturned eyes, and I find that a straighter brow looks the best. When the brow is too arched, and especially when it is arched and also the ends are drawn really long, it accentuates the droopiness so bad. It's almost like drawing an arrow pointing down on your face. Keeping the brows straight and the tail a little shorter solves that problem.

    • @SiSi-xg1hk
      @SiSi-xg1hk 6 лет назад

      I'm the same way! I think that my facial expressions have influenced the uneven hooded shape over my eyes. I can raise my left eyebrow, but not my right, & my left eyelid is a little more hooded.
      So, I compensate when I do a cat-eye liner look by making it thick (like how she says not to do). But I think it works because I do it thick liner for glamorous stage performances. I always get compliments on my makeup too.

I've never gotten the liner right, not even kind of and only got lucky with lashes once, thank goodness it was makeup i wore for my aunt's wedding and family photos. I would *live* to see myself with a good smokey black eye with, liner, and falsies. Great video and instructions!

    If there’s one thing I want to say I didn’t care for is the shade of the shadow/highlighter that was applied in the inner corner at the end - it’s just too yellow for the skin tone and once I noticed it, I couldn’t focus on anything else! Otherwise, this is an A+ tutorial. So pretty! 😍

I made all those "wrong" mistakes in the beginning but but clips like this help me improve. Thanks!
