Why is eye shadow so hard for me.

Do you guys have pic tutorials or tips? I like a brown smokey eye it's always messy when I do it and not blended right.

What kind of brush are you using? The quality of the brush and shadows have SO much to do with it. Invest in a max 217 to lay down a base color and a smokey crease and then pat your lighter color all over the lid.

Hey I'm using the naked palette 2 brush with the nyx natural palette. I think I'm going to by Sonia kashiwa brushes

Interesting! Both are decent products. Watch some YouTube tutorials with Jaclyn hill. She's great! Also make sure you're using a primer and a transition color that is similar to your skin tone to make the shadows blend well

Its always easier to start out with less product and use more when you need to, I feel like whenever an eyeshadow is super pigmented and I take too much its super hard to blend out and just goes everywhere since there's so much product to spread out. So start small and work your way up :)

Definitely use a primer. You could also put a piece of tape where you want the shadow to end to make it niece and clean, the blending takes a little work, just keep practicing. Also, for more vibrant shadow, you could use nyx jumbo pencil in milk underneath to make the colors stand out more.
