I've only recently started trying to professionally do makeup and I've been practicing for a few months now, does it look okay? any tips on how I can improve? I'm fine with negative (constructive) criticism.

Thank you!

for my eyebrows I used Anastasia Beverly Hills dipbrow in ebony, for my skin I used nars all day luminous foundation, for my highlighter I use Anastasia Beverly Hills cream contour palette with a little bit of loose pigment in a light shade over the top.

For the top eyeshadow I used urban decay shades from the vice 4 palette and some kiko eye shadows (which are great considering they're about £3 to £6) I used purples on my lid and pink around the edges I blended from lightest to darkest and formed a wing shape as I wasn't applying winged liner.

for the bottom eyeshadow I did a halo eye by applying dark purple around my crease and the inner and outer corner and gradually built up to a dark brown colour, then I put a light purple on my lid to create a spotlight

and both of my pairs of eyelashes are Mac

Looks so pretty! I work at kiko and the eye shadows are my favourite! So pigmented

I think it looks very nice! For the first look, I think that blending the brown transition shade into the brow bone a little more seamlessly would add a little polish to the look :)
As for the second one, the blending is awesome! It might just be the angle of the photo, but I do think the wing could be a little thicker, and at a more flattering angle to uplift the eye - if that makes sense. A little bit more vertical than horizontal would look nice I think, but also wing angle is definitely just a preference and the line itself looks very smooth. Keep up the good work!

Your eyebrowd are amazing lol. I think it looks awesome. The blending is well done and the lashes look very very neatly applied. Great job and I definitely see potential :)
