    @limalicious Před 3 lety +312

    Tutorials when I was a teen were not designed for people with deep-set, hooded, or monolid eyes. They were all designed for perfect almond eyes, or at most, protruding or upturned eyes. I just thought I was terrible at everything, lost a lot of self-confidence, and gave up on makeup.
    Please note that youtube did not exist when I was in high school. It wasn't a thing at all until I was a freshman in college.

      Same boat. I'm 34 and genuinely thought I was just fucking terrible at it because all tutorials were for 'perfect lids/eyes' and I felt so self conscious wearing makeup. Now, I'm able to try a little and hopefully not suck at it. However Ive become a lot more comfortable with my face bare than with makeup.

    I didn’t know I had hooded eyes until last month when I went to a very rude unprofessional makeup artist who was not familiar with hooded almond shaped eyes she literally did my makeup really bad , used the wrong lashes and said she did her best the reason why my makeup didn’t turn out good is cause I have droopy eyes. That broke me and made me self cautious. Until I watched videos like this. This video helped me a lot thank you so much. I’m so glad I learned my eye shape and what works for me ❤️

    • @cooperstreaming7383
      @cooperstreaming7383 Před 2 lety +36

      I hope you gave that person a terrible review. It is literally NEVER the fault of a person’s features that makeup doesn’t turn out well. Make up is for everyone and the point of being a professional is to be able to work with different kinds of features to enhance whatever that person likes. They couldn’t admit that they were not talented enough to know what to do. Those of us with her ties know that they are more difficult and you have to have more technical skills. I’m so sorry this person gave you struggles with your self-esteem. If it makes you feel any better, Megan Fox has hooded eyes, and Britney Spears has famously droopy eyes. Both gorgeous. And those are just the first two that are popping into my head. I’m sure you are beautiful and I’m so sorry that some trashy person tried to make you feel badly for their own shortcomings

    • @momoratime2956
      @momoratime2956 Před 4 lety +12

      i actually find that i prefer winged lashes so long as i place them correctly! lashes that are too long in the middle tend to cover up a lot of the bright area created; instead, i use a half lash or a winged lash to show more of the brighter space. to compensate and make sure my eyes aren't looking droopy, i just adjust where i glue down the outter corner of the lash. the curve of the outer lash should follow the line you made with your winged liner, not cover up the wing and drag it down. highly recommend this technique as it avoids looking like the lashes are wearing you vs the other way around.

      Trust me, you can still be as goth as your heart desires even with hooded eyes. All you need to do is learn where to use the right techniques and you can modify pretty much any look or tutorial to work for you. Also, there is no one way to do “goth makeup”, so you don’t have to do anything that just doesn’t work for your eye shape. in fact, if you did the look in this video using black, white, and grey, it would pair very nicely with any gothic inspired outfit 😊

    Oh my god youre an angel! I've always been sad because I felt like I failed in every makeup tutorial on youtube...So I have always prefered makeup artists to do my make up. Some of them nailed it, but of course not all. Also I have been a hobby model and there was a time when I had to model in a wedding dress and the wedding dress company had a deal with a makeup salon and when I was abt to go to makeup the makeup artist said "How I am supposed to do your make up?, You don't even have eyelids. " The wedding salon owner were shocked abt this answer and so was I, because it's not really that bad and most makeup artists managed to do my make up. And even worse, when the catwalk ended and the show was over and we were taking photos of each other (with other models) and I had those really big heels and I was wearing a long dress and I stumbled (didn't fall) when my friend was about to take a picture of me and they were filming it and posted on facebook on their salon page. I wrote to their dm and asked why were you filming this, the show was already over and this video should not be here and it's insulting. They said, "well we didn't have time to film during the show, so we just took a video after the show..." I kindly asked this to be taken down...so they did... But idk why should they do this? I'm sure it isn't something you want your clients to see; basically laughing when models stumble or fall. Then another time, my friend, who is a recent makup artist said: " I don't want to do makeup on your eyes, because your eyes are freaky-shaped." So that's my story...

    This was such a great video. It ‘opened’ my eyes to a whole new way of doing makeup. I’ve always avoided eyeshadows because I hated how they made my eyes look but turns out I was just applying it all wrong! It also validated some of my own makeup “quirks” like using beige on my lower lid, only using dark eyeshadow on the bottom outer, and if wearing eyeliner at all to do it thin. Yay!

  • @ksuthers

      @Nohandletoday Před 4 lety +13

      Kathryn Suthers - if you ever would like to give a wing a crack but don’t trust your skills with a liquid pen then I’d highly recommend a straight flat brush (makeup forever do a decent one) with a good quality gel pot and you can stamp it on. Kinda easier with hooded eyes (especially if you have asymmetrical hoods) as the brush will accurately predict where your liner will go before you put it down. If you wanna be extra cautious then you can use a light shadow on the flat brush first as a map out and then grab a liquid. Either way, flat brush is my favorite brush for work near the lash line with hooded eyes. Fast too 🙂

    When I raise my eye brows, and then lower them back down, my hooded eyes fold into a “double chin” like crease that I have to adjust with my fingers to get it back to a single fold. I thought this would be a funny thing to share
    When it comes to the video: THANK YOU! I would actually avoid makeup at all costs because I thought it just “didn’t work for me” or “didn’t look good on my face” and this video changed that for me. I will definitely learn how to do this just in time for Junior prom! ❤️❤️❤️

    This was wonderful! I never knew I had hooded eyes until this year. I struggled with the creasing and gunky/oiled up eyeshadow after a few hours of wear so I just quit wearing it figuring I was just bad at makeup. I even primed my eyelid but I still had creasing but I never did translucent powder so maybe that was my downfall there. Recently, in my late 30s, I've felt I'd love to get into wearing it more and watching a reel on Instagram helped me figure out I had hooded eyes. Your video is super bright and it's really great how you filmed it. Clear and easy to see the difference in application. Will definitely be referencing this in my next attempt!
    ETA: I also wear glasses if not obvious from my pfp so eyeshadow just seemed so hidden on my face. Excited to try again!
