I use a blending brush and start from the corners (darker color) and blend inwards & mine always comes out good.

Could be your brush, like the other girls have said.
blend from the darker colour into the lighter colour with small, gentle strokes.

Technique and quality tools are both key. For technique, I always apply my eyeshadows with individual brushes, and then blend it all together with a separate fluffy brush (something similar to the MAC 217 brush - you can find a dupe from Coastal Scents for an affordable version). My favorite eye shadow brushes come from OCC and MAC, but you don't always have to spend a lot of money. Coastal Scents, Sonia Kashuk and Makeup Geek are more affordable but still good quality. Buy the best you can afford - good brushes are an investment that last a while!
