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! ☺️

Deep set and hooded. Makes it so difficult to make my eyeshadow look good but I've learned some great tips from this, thank you!!

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! 😃

Makeup Masterclass Mondays have now become my favourite day of the week. Thank you for all the great information!

I freaking love these!!!!! You are literally the best at helping me truly understand makeup and I'm so appreciative. Thank you ❤️😊

Remember that ALLLL eye shapes are beautiful! This video is just to help you figure out what shape you have so you can find an eyeshadow technique that works for you! At the end of the day, makeup is fun so do what YOU love! Let me know what other makeup topics you want me to cover in our next makeup masterclass!

I would love to see a wing eyeliner tutorial for round eyes. I’ve yet to master it. It’s soo hard to get a good wing on round eyes

I thought this whole time I had hooded eyes since my brow bones are prominent, but now I know they are deep set. Super helpful video. I usually avoid wearing eyeshadow because I didn’t know how to wear it for my eye shape. Thanks, Marlena!!

Hugs from NC and thank you!

Hi Marlena, I love your makeup, you are so pretty!!! 😃 Greetings from Mexico 🇲🇽

I may just have to tells you every week that I Love Makeup Class Monday. Please don’t ever stop.

Many thanks for your very clear explanation of each eye shape. They are very helpful.

This was very educational and helpful. Thank you doing this masterclass. 😍❤️

Super throwback to your teaching video days of eye shapes and color combos.

Thank you 😘 😘 😘. I needed this 🥰.. You are AWESOME Marlena 😚😚😚😚😚😚

Ma’am I want the eyeshadow you have on, so pretty

This upload just made me so happy!

I just love your tutorials and I love love your eyeshadows. 👏🏻👍🏻🌹🥰

Thanks for the informative video! I’ll have to go back and watch it a couple times to figure mine out

Thank you Marlena!! 🖤

Thank you so much for this video! I've been trying to figure out what kind of eye shape I have and it's so helpful that you compare the shapes from the others! Pictures just don't explain well enough. :)

Makeup geeks ... I started watching her Chanel in 2010 .... 😍😍😍😍😘😘😘😢🤗🤗

Wide set, deep set, and almond shape; I've got some researching to do, missie! Love your eye look today! Canadian love, and hugs, Marlena, Sherrey💘

wish there was more we could do with hooded eyes. 🥺

Love the content lately! 👌🏻 so helpful and relaxing to watch!

This was super helpful. Now I know I have down turned deep set eyes.

Hey Marlena so excited for this!

I was waiting for you to call out droopy eye.

This is fantastic! I’ve been trying all these different eye looks that haven’t worked for me. I was thinking that I needed more practice etc. You made it so easy and I can’t wait to try the look for my eye shape….thank you!!

Awesome video! Thank you! 👍🏻❤️

Deep and close set eyes here 👋🏼 thank you Marlena for these tips!

Marlena, what false lashes would be best for hooded eyes?

I remember one of the first videos I watched of you. It’s super old now but I was searching for makeup for round eyes (my eyes are super round and big). Your make up advice was one of the rare advice out there . Thank you

I watched one of your videos from about a year ago. It was around an hour long. As usual, there was loads of great information in it. Thank you for taking the time out of “momhood” and being a lady boss to teach us.

loved this

I remember a Kevyn Aucoin book I had many years ago talking about deep set eyes which I have. I’m so grateful that you’re talking about them and giving tips! It’s hard to find tips for this issue!

Gosh I love these….your the best…love the free makeup lessons…..it’s been really hard for me I have a deep set eye

Hi Marlena may the good lord bless you and protect you always sweetie 🙏😘👍❤️🌹

I've always wondered what kind of eyes i have cuz it's not hooded but certain looks does not look good so this video helped so much!!! I have " upturned deep set eyes"! I don't feel like to many people have this cuz I've watched so many videos looking for someone like mine to find what looks best!!!!

great lesson miss stell xx you are my favourite teacher 😉😉💗

Love this!!! Thank you for all the tips...super helpful!

I'm a combination between bigg round eyes, prominent eyes and slightly downturned eyes and have to admit that eye makeup has been pretty difficult to do. I have tried many different styles but none really worked for me. Soft brown pencil liner to lift up the eyes, and Mascara at the corners of my lashes really helped to lift them up and still keep their natural shape.

thank you for giving upturned eye people the option to exaggerate! everyting else i've seen is about demphasizing which is fine but i want to emphasize my natural shape the same as others with different eye shapes and this was so so helpful!

Thank you love your class 🤔

Can you do a video on eyeshadow for glasses wearers?

Hi Marlena!! This was an AMAZING video and i have learned soooo much❤️ (yes at 50 you can indeed learn😉) And YOU ARE AMAZING gorgeous empowering and inspiring please continue these awesome videos they are GREAT🏆🏆😘😘

Thank you so much for this super helpful video

Love this video I have watched your tutorials and videos for years!! Always love to see your makeup style ..

Thank you so much! I just found you today and will be watching your videos when I have the time. I'm so sorry about Makeup Geek...I had always heard great things about it. Can't wait to see what you have in the future.

love these!

I love that you did this. I'm so glad to see your videos again!

YAY!! I was going to ask about this! I have heavy hooded eyes so I am excited.

Thanks for this concise and helpful breakdown of the different eye shapes.

Oh my days why do I feel like my eyes look like every shape 🤦🏽‍♀️ Loved this video so informative! Loved the eyeshadow colours xx

Love the video ❤️

Great content! Thank you.

You were the first KZfaqr that I watched for makeup tutorials! #makeupgeeks

That was fun.. Again. Round, hooded eyes here.. I think, lol

It’s so hard to find tutorials about almond eyes

I have rounded downside hooded eyes!! very complicated! thanks Marlena !

Love the color combo of your eyeshadow!! Def going to try to recreate!

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.

Now this is what I love from you! Great video.

I feel like I have deep set almond shaped eyes, because I have kind of a "bag" under my eyes & a pretty stand out brow bone but never bags under my eyes from not enough sleep & my eyes are long and straight across like an almond, I find that a wing, particularly small or long thin ones make my eyes more open & my lashes are naturally curly so a good mascara makes them pop. thank you for making make up education clear and easy to understand without being boring ❤

I’m a make up beginner. Thank you so much for breaking all of this down!

3:37 amond eyes makeup

Thanks Marlena. This was very helpful.

I love your personality

i have one upturned and one round!

new new to your class thank you thanks

Deep set over here 🙃

I have down turned, hooded eyes...and just when I think I've got eyeshadow down pat, my right eye droops a little more😪. Soooooo frustrating. I almost feel like I should go back to applying eyeshadow the way I did in high-school.

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.

This is very useful video. Actually I learned about eyeshapes from your videos thank you so much . Love from india

Very much need a tutorial on this eye look, or atleast please share the pallets used. ❤

I guess because of age? But I've only one eye that's become hooded? I would guess that my eyes prior would be wide eyes? What to do for that? ❤ you & thank you for sharing your talents ❣

Thank for this video helps a lot understand my shape eye look i may be going for ❤️ how u have a makeup classes giving out free makeup Look let thanks everything u do for your KZfaq community

@marlena can you do a video on face shapes?

Ahhhh im so mad I specifically searched make up for different shaped eyes/different eye shapes etc and this video didn’t pop up once!!! I had given uppp! Thank you so much!!

Wow I didn't realise the make up geek sight had so many teaching parts for free go check it out she has different eye looks broken down Colour by colour and where to place on lots of different techniques and colours great for beginners and also just for some ideas especially if you get stuck in that make-up rut where you're bored fresh ideas can really help

I know I’m hooded but now I think I’m prominent hooded! Thanks so much for this!!!

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!

I always learn something from you!

I have slightly hooded almond eyes and I have small space between my eyes and brows

Honestly I wish I could just send a picture of my face to a MUA and have them tell me my eye shape and what looks will look best on me because I still haven't figured it out. Lol.

Aging and gravity did a number on my eyelids when I look straight ahead my moving eyelid is gone. Gave up on eyeshadow and mascara is ending up everywhere 😂

I have prominent, hooded, wide set eyes…. It is a hell to style them 😂

I either have hooded or almond

I love your tutorials! Can you do one for creepy lids?

I wanna know types of eye liners we can do for upturned eyes

My eye shape is very hooded and close together. They also stay very swollen because I take a lot of prednisone due to my Lupus & RA 😢 I’ve tried many different kinds of eye serums but nothing has helped, not even my frozen eye patches and my frozen face mask I keep in my freezer. It’s very disappointing & aggravating when I’m trying to do eye shadow. Any tips or suggestions?

Oh this was such a Great video Marlena👌❣ You look absolutely Stunning ! Thank You❣ Goes to my saved videos 🙌 Greetings from Helsinki 🍃🍂 Charlotte 🙋‍♀️

Love these Master Classes 🥰💖

My left eye is upturned and my right eye is true almond shape. So fun 😂

Hi Marlena! I love this video and I’ve always felt I was a combo of 2 different types but thought I was just crazy! Lol. Also, would you or will you be doing an updated “Fall makeup look”? I’m super curious about what color trends are in this year! 😎❤️

I believe I have hooded eyes. When I put shimmer on the lid it isn’t visible at all so I’m wondering how this is helpful?

❤️Ana

🤣🤣🤣 on this channel drink is just MUST!!...and snack of course..but DRINK..🤣🗣️🙈..hits different on this channel..

I have close set eyes, deep set eyes and hooded eyes. My eyelids are small too, my brow is really close to the eyes. Its really hard to make a decent makeup on them

Deep set, round, downturned. I always loved my downturned eyes but never knew how to apply makeup to them because fox-like upturned eyes have been the trend for a long time!
