Hooded Eyes Do's & Don'ts! ♡

Hey everyone! Today's video is a hooded eyes do's & don'ts! Just a little disclaimer... This video is not putting people down if they do these things!! It's just a video on how to enhance your hooded eyes! If you do love creating winged liner looks, go for it!! If you love the eyeliner, go for it!! These are just some tips/techniques that I learned for my eye shape. We are all different from one another, so just go with what you think is right & suits your eye shape the best!! I'm so bad at explaining things, so hopefully I explained everything okay! Thanks for watching :) xx

Watching this video back I thought of some other tips, so I'll list them below!
→ You can apply a nude or white eyeliner on the lower waterline, just help the appearance of the eyes become more open and awake.
→ Apply a inner corner highlight to make the attention drawn to the inner part of the eye!
→ If you do want to create a winged liner try and create a thiner line near the lash line and then start creating a thicker line on the outer part of the eye. This will help to show your lid space more, than as you see in the video the liner took up most of my lid, so we couldn't see it! When you're creating the wing on the outer part of the eye make sure to not take it into the hood and crease also, as this is what gives it the funny looking appearance! It's quite hard to explain!
If you have any other tips that I missed out, be sure to list them below in the comments!
