@Ashley there was no need to be rude. A simple, it could use shine work would have been an acceptable answer.

Maybe it's the light but unfortunately it looks a bit like a black eye.. but it can be fixed easily :) clean up the shadow on the underside of the eye and place some dark purple eyeliner on the waterline and smudge a little. it should already look really good :) and if you want to fix it just a little more make the inner corner lighter and more natural like white or creamy pink and darken the outer corner. that way it would be a smoke eye with a pop of color and that is a lot easier to do than a whole colored look.

It does look a little bit messy. Don't apply the eyeshadow onto where dark circles would be. If you just remove that, darken your lash line and fill in your brows a little it will really improve it :)

I really like the color choices but maybe making it a bit more natural with just a pop of violet. also you need some filling in the brows and lashline. and instead of putting color where dark circles usually are (underneath eyes), try using concealer or eyeshadow to lighten that. just don't use color underneath eyes unless it's on lashline. (:

Oh wow... well...
Too much on the bottom, it looks messy, and maybe not so bright on the top...
But hey, practice makes perfect! just watch a few youtube videos on it and try doing them :) best of luck!

Not a fan. Kinda looks like you have two black eyes. Maybe it's just the lighting. Keep practising.

You should take it off and look up some tutorials on contouring and colors and then try again!

Some of you forget that there are young girls on here. When I was a preteen I had no type of makeup skills what so ever so please be nicer when giving advice. These are young girls remember that.

Blend!! Highlight the inner corners and brow none with white. And use a concealer under the eyes. It might look better if you had more of a gradient and just kept the shadow on the lid on the inner half of your eye.

It's all in the technique. Practice and you'll get there. Maybe watch a few decent youtubers?
