Achieving a smokey eye look can be challenging if you have hooded eyes, so today I am breaking it down step-by-step in a simplified eye makeup tutorial beginners.
What are hooded eyes?
Hooded eyes usually means your upper lid covers the eyelid, and oftentimes the crease is not visible and deeper set. Asian eyes are also considered hooded.
I have done a video previously sharing a more wearable look, which you can watch that here for more tips for hooded eyeshadow.
This smokey eye look is wearable, and great for nighttime or during the day. I used neutral, soft brows shadows and used a shimmery beige on the lid. I also share how to easily apply eyeliner for hooded eyes, for a smoked out lash line. I finish off with sharing how to apply magnetic eyelashes for a cat eye shape.
