I misuse Sephora's black matte liquid lipstick as an eyeshadow base, consider buying one just to use as base in case the dedicated eyeshadow base products don't work for you. It works the exact same way as described in this video. Take it from someone who has been to hundreds of goth/metal/scene/punk etc parties and festivals and did a lot of makeup. Obviously don't do it if you already used the lipstick on your lips, to avoid infections. Edit: and when you have next to no money, just get an Essence black kohl pencil, and use that as base or something, it's not as great, but still pretty awesome.

I am new to your channel but your tips and tricks are great! Easy to follow and your so pretty and funny I love throwing your videos on while I'm getting ready. I'm an artist so contouring the face in certain ways makes sense to me as an illustrator. The highlight in the inner corner of your your eyes pulls the dimensions of your face to make them not inset so deep. It's tricking your eyes into reading that space differently! It makes you look more youthful, as darker and deeper set eyes happen naturally with age for the most part. I find looking at how artists DRAW faces can help you learn new ways to add contour for make up, it's just playing with colors lighting and dimensions after all!

@Draggonny Жыл бұрын

I'm in my 30s and I do that trick too. Half line of black eyeshadow on my upper lash line blended at the edges and just a gentle wisp of the nearly empty brush on the outside corner on the lower lid. It can be defining but subtle for natural looking everyday makeup. Or I do the same thing but with a brown shadow if I really want to do the "no make-up" makeup look aka the "I just rolled out of bed looking this perfect" illusion.

@@Draggonny What do you use? I've been just using a standard black or brown eyeshadow. I spray my angled eye brush with setting spray then dip it in the shadow. My shadows are starting to get a bit gunked up, though. I'm wondering if a better quality shadow would help and stop the shadow from gunking up like that. I've also seen actual cake eyeliners but I have never tried any yet. I just can't use the shadows dry. Not as a liner. They end up smearing and moving around unless I've gotten them wet before putting on.

(I only used the TEENIEST, TINIEST dop of it but it sheered it out too much.) The drops do work great for sheering out cream/liquid blush, though. So it wasn't a waste.
