Hi guys! Welcome back to my channel. If you are new
welcome! My name is Marta :)
And I am so happy to have you here!
For this video, as you can see I already did my eyes
and you can see, well I can really see the difference
both eye shadows look so cute
but this tutorial is for those of you
that have hooded or very small eyes
and you want them to look big and not so "droopy"
and I feel like this makeup is super easy to create
if you're a beginner and this is your first time applying eye shadow
this is super easy and
fast and simple. So I hope this video is helpful
don't forget to leave me a like if you did like this video
and now lets get started!
The eye shadow palette that I will be using is this one from Pur Cosmetics
The shades in this palette are very beautiful!
this is going to be the first eye shadow i will be applying
it's a brown shade and I am going to use this brush
from e.l.f. Cosmetics called
Crease Brush. This is a perfect brush
to apply the eye shadow on your crease. I am going to apply
it by going back and forth right on my crease
from corner to corner, like a rainbow :)
For me, it's a lot easier to apply the eye shadow on my crease
with my eye open, looking up like this
because the brush fits perfect on the crease. After
the eye shadow is all on my crease, using the same brush
I am going to start blenging it in circular motions
a little bit higher than the crease so it can be nice and blended.
and for hooded eyes..
for hooded eyes, it's important to apply
most of the eye shadow ABOVE your crease and less
on your lower lash line.
If you just apply the eye shadow right on your crease
when you open your eyes, you won't be
able to see it the eye shadow.
It will be hiding under your hooded eye lid. So,
you have to blend it out ABOVE your crease
depending on how far above the crease you want it to show with your eyes open
That's why I like applying it with my eye open
First I apply it on the crease
and then I blend it out above it
On this other eye, I am going to apply it
and leave it ONLY on my crease.
I'm using the same brush and the same eye shadow
Of course I'm going to blend it out but just on my crease.
So you guys can see the difference
Right here, you can barely see the eye shadow
and it's barely above the crease
and on this eye, since I blended it above the crease, closer to my eye brows
it's obviously more noticeable
using the same brush, I am going to grab this shade
You can use any shade that's very light
and I am going to apply that on my eye lid
You don't want your eye lid to look dark
This is another thing that's important for hooded eyes..
you want to avoid applying a dark eye shadow on your lid
because that will make your eye look smaller. So
I will apply the same brown eye shadow on this eye over here
so you guys can see the difference
This eye shadow isn't even that dark but,
there's a difference from this eye
that looks a bit bigger than the other one.
With this brush from Bh Cosmetics
I am going to grab this dark brown shade
and I am going to apply this on the outer
corner of my eyelid. In tapping motions
It's very pigmented so you have to be careful. You always want to start
with a small amount of eye shadow. Specially
if it's a dark eye shadow. Now I am going
to blend it out. I want to keep this on
the outer corner
So I won't bring it on the center of my lid.
For this part, you also want to blend it out
a little bit higher than your crease
To blend it out better, I am going to grab a different brush
I'm using this Morphe R37 brush
The reason why I'm using a clean brush is because
I want to blend out the eye shadow better
without it moving higher than where it's at
Applying a dark eye shadow on the
outer corner of your lid and blending
it out above your outer crease and not in the center
that will make your eyes look
lifted, like a cat eye effect
and also a bit bigger. And for
this eye, I will do the same thing BUT, I
won't blend it out as high. Just barely above the crease
The biggest mistake I've seen on hooded
eyes is the
eyeliner. I have mentioned this
in a few of my videos
Just don't do a thick eye liner. That just makes your eye lid
look smaller. When you have your eyes open, your whole eyelid hides
So on this eye I'm doing a thick eye liner
and it's not even that thick but it still hides my eye lid
When I open my eyes, you can only see the back eye liner
Specially on this inner corner
right here.
and that eye looks smaller now. So if you
really want to apply eye liner, I suggest you just put it
only on the outer corner
and super close to the roots of
your eyelashes and not so thick!
and if you want to apply it all the way to your inner corner
just do it VERY thin
I'm barely touching
my eye lid with the eye liner
with the very tip of the eyeliner
It's very thin
that way, you can still see
the rest of my eye lid
And that's why I said to apply a light shade
on your eyelid so it can be noticeable
If you apply a dark shade on your lid
it's the same thing as if you're applying an eye liner
for the lower lash line, like I said, don't apply
a lot of product there
I'm applying the same shade I applied on my crease right here.
I'm applying it only on the outer corner and connecting it
to the eyeshadow on my eyelid
On this eye, I am going to apply it all
over my lower lash line. You'll see right now how
much smaller this eye looks
Now, I am applying a black eye liner
black eye liner on your waterline..
also makes your eyes look
a lot smaller! And on my
other eye, I am going to apply
light shade. It's like a beige shade. Doing this
will help your eye too look a bit bigger.
The eyelash glue is still drying
but right here you can see..I applied
different eyelashes. These right here look
more fuller on the outer part
and that gives you a "cat eye" look
and they look big
And these eyelashes are also very simple
but having the black eyeliner makes the eyelashes disappear
you can barely see the eyelashes
The mascara that I'll be applying is
this Kush Mascara from Milk Makeup
On this eye, I am going to apply A LOT of mascara on all my lashes
If you've seen my previous videos
you know that I looove to apply a lot of mascara
on my lower lashes
BUT on this other eye, since
we want to make our eyes look bigger,
I am going to apply most of the mascara on
the outer part of the lashes and not a lot
on the inner part
Having the dark eyeshadow only on the outer corner
on the top and bottom, the long lashes on the outer corner
and a lot of mascara on the outer part of the lashes
having ALL OF THAT only on the outer corner of your eye
that will make your eyes look big and lifted
and this eye has the dark eye shadow all around the eye
and that, as you can see, makes your eye look smaller
Of course this eye will stand out more
because its very dark
and this one doesn't
stand out that much because it's not as dark
BUT this eye looks bigger
and if you like this other eye more
that's ok! Keep doing it! Like I said
both sides look cute
BUT if you want your eyes to look bigger
do it this way
I almost forgot this part, which is also a big
mistake that i've seen and that is
applying the brow bone highlight too low
That will makeup your hooded eyelid
look even bigger and more droopy
So, if you want to apply highlight
just apply it right below the
arch of your eyebrow
and blend it out slightly below the arch
