Round, deep set eyes here, which I mistook for hooded for quite a while. Took me too long to accept that a wing just does NOT work on me (believe me, I tried!) and light, shimmery colors all across my lid and up above my crease are my best friends. You just confirmed that for me, so thanks! I kept hearing that woman of a certain age should shy away from shimmery colors and stick with mattes, but mattes make me look dead, and shimmers bring life to my eyes and complexion. I guess it really does just depend on the person! ☺️
@sharroon75743 жыл бұрын
Me too! I do like a matte eye though, I leave the lid bare ( I am very fair) and just put a colour that contrasts my eye color in line with my iris and the tip of my nose ( the outer crease ) to create that diagonal line. No eyeliner though on top of the eye, that looks terrible.

Hint for determining deep-set: your lashes will often touch your brow bone when your eyes are open because of the brow bone being out farther than the eye. Always love learning about makeup. Thanks Marlena! Excited for new stuff coming out in fall! 😃

I love, love doing a halo eye when I’m trying to go full on glam. How about the reverse smoky eye? I’ve also seen this called the reverse smoky cat eye? This technique was made for hooded eyes! I’m so in love with doing this and you can adjust how far down you go under the eye and how far out you want to bring your wing. If all else fails- apply a glitter glue and apply a shimmer all over for a one and done look. I could keep going but this comment is so long, already❣️😂❤️

True, we exotic eyed girls don’t have those deep sockets that are shown all the time because advertisers want the eyeshadow to be clearly seen. However, hooded lids do justice to a mysterious smoky look like no one else. Think Brigitte Bardot. Or Lauren Bacall ( my fave), or Alia Bhatt, the famous Bollywood sex symbol. Every Geisha that ever lived. Embrace your inner sloe eyed vixen! BTW We also give great side eye. 😊

I have deep-set, almond eyes, & also, w/ a bit of a hood: I utilize the style you’re wearing MOST often…..lightness in the inner corner, w/slightly deeper shading gradually moving towards the outer corner. Sometimes, I’ll only use lighter shades on the lid as you described & use a mid tone/slightly deeper shade above the crease & the upper-outside of the eye to “recede” the brow bone a bit. Those techniques REALLY work for me.👍….used to be able to wear a small wing, but as I’ve matured, the wing will collide w/my hood so “wings” are mostly not feasible for me now.

I have a very interesting and exotic mixture of different eye shapes thats why it was initially hard for me to find out what worked for me in terms of eye makeup. I have small almond shaped but deep set eyes (way more deep set than the one she shows in the video) and I love it! Everyone's always imitating a cut crease/almond shaped eye makeup look that i naturally have. Deep set eyes needs to get more love. People talk badly about it yet try to imitate it all the time when they apply eye makeup.

THANK YOU!!! This is helpful. I have deep set, wide eyes, and very high cheekbones, so my under eyes always appear puffy, if that makes sense. I also struggle with lashes as they hit my brow bone and I get mascara marks there. I think I need to do my lashes first, then concealer and eye shadow. Anyway, my eyes are green and I bought some concealer and eye makeup in shades of purple and I am a beginner and I am nervous to open my products and try, but knowing my eye shape now gives me more confidence! So many beauty experts confuse deep set eyes and hooded eyes so it's hard to find good tutorials. The way I've heard it best explained is with deep set you still have a visible mobile lid that doesn't disappear when eyes are open whereas hooded eyes don't have that larger lid area. That made sense to me. Please someone correct me if I'm wrong. I know this video is a year old so this likely won't be seen, but thanks if you are here and reading! Happy Make Upping Everyone!
