Maybe try blending it out more with your fingers if you don't have a blending tool? :)

Other than that it's pretty good haha.

Try blending so it doesn't look so harsh, try a little lighter colors with your smokey eye!

Looks exactly like your other thread
There are no improvements at all
You really need to practice blending in colors and using more than one color then just that black one

Actually I did improve, the waterline eyeliner isn't as thick, and if you look I used brown and black.

You need to blend the colors though
Thats the main thing
And it looks like a lot

It looks thick and sloppy, also there's no gradual fade (the smokey look).

You did a great job! My first attempts weren't near as good but keep practicing blending and try not to make the end a visible line it pushes it towards a retro-ish look

I did blend and saying its sloppy isn't helpful.

Thanks ramsha!

Guys don't always be negative! It's better than her last try but just work a bit on the blending, ok sweetie! Oh and the waterline has improved lots! That's it! You can even post a pic on my profile if you wanna avoid all this stuff or post is as a thread. Up to you. But that was my opinion, honestly xx

Thanks Zahra, I'll work on blending. :) you're always so honest, but in a nice way. Thank you :)

Your welcome, that's what we're here for, hey? Buy a fluffy blending brush from target from the brand "elf" I don't know if its good, again honestly cause I live in England but other people on here say its worth the money and actually works well. I think it's a few dollars. Btw in love your smile and haircut! :)

@mary R
Telling you its MESSY is actualy helping you more than telling you is so fabulous when its not
Cuz telling you the truth you can actually improve from your mistakes

@zahra we aren't being negative we are being honest and truthful
And at least we arent telling lies

I'll try to find a brush like that, but there's no target where I live. And the person in the picture isn't me, but I'll tell her you said that. :)

Telling me it's messy and sloppy is NOT helpful. Giving me tips or suggestions to improve is helpful.

Ok ;-)

Your right Ariana M. But if I were Mary R. I wouldn't be very happy with mostly negative comments and no positive comments. I can tell you lots of good things about that look. She still seems happy tho. So cheers to her.

Aug 30, 2013

Zahra M.

Exactly what Mary R. said. Tbh she's posted a few threads like this and all have positive things In the look. All you've said is negative. You and others focus on the negative and not the positive.

Well I was trying to be honest like she asked.

I think you should put a light brown and a dark brown in the crease then the black on the lid for a gradient look. Also use tape or an index card for a more precise line. Of course blend like everyone said. Her lashes are lost so she needs falsies or 2 coats of mascara. Her brows need to be highlighted with concealer underneath. Also a highlighted under eye would make the smokey eye pop. I do see improvements but there's still room to grow.

Needs a LOT more blending and different shades. Looks way too harsh.

^^^^
Someone here agrees with me

@mary
Try practicing based off the pictures they posted
If you just start like whatever without references you are just going to be lost and its going to end up how it did
Once you get the hang of it
It will look A LOT better
Hoped this helped and I'm not trying to be rude I am just giving you HONEST OPINIONS liked you asked cuz I'm getting tired of the ppl who tell you its fabulous without giving advice
