I think with practice you'll get it right. I definitely saw the strips. You need thinner strips. Those were too wide. I too have always had a hooded eye and i learned how to wear my eye shadow to accommodate much larger sexier eyes than I actually have. Even at my 58 years of age.
Honestly, I can't see the tape afterwards at all. I think you look just as good without them. Well done on getting them to stick. I struggle with fake eyelashes (will you do a video on how to apply) I could manage this fine in my teens in the 70s but not any more.
I’ve used this brand for two years and loooove them. I use the 6mm size and wear them every day, all day. Just a caution: if you use your fingers to apply they won’t stick as well. Just barely grasp the strip with the tweezers on the bottom in the middle, apply and gently twist the tweezers to release. I never leave the house without them. Simple water will remove them.
I'm a baby boomer and absolutely love these eye strips! If placed correctly, they do work and can make a huge difference. I don't wear daily - but if I'm going out for a more dressy occasion, I do. A couple of things. They come in different sizes- she's using a large size. I would start out with the smaller ones first. Their tweezers are cheap- I use regular tweezers. They are a little awkward to place- but it beats the alternative - surgery. Find the video by the owner- I had been placing them incorrectly- on the lid itself- instead of over the crease. Placement can be a little tricky. I confess - I break the cardinal rule- I end up touching the ends to place. But, they still stick- and I've never had one fall off. I do put a little darker eye shadow over it- and it camouflaged the strip. Yes, if you close your eyes people may see them- but we don't go around with our eyes closed- I find them virtually undetectable. This is one of the very few products that does what it claims. I also really like the brow templates - but I use a different brand.
@@juliefizpatrick513 Fab Brows duo is what I use. Comes with different style templates & two brow colors & a brow brush. Try different looks and sees what works for you. It can be a learning process- just go with it. 🌈
Glad you did this video. I have used the strips for months and I was amazed that your strips stayed put while putting on eye shadow. My lids are very crepey and are rounded more than yours. Oily lids as well even though I also bought the eyelid wipes. Once the shadow goes on the strips start to loosen and usually come off too easily. I will still use them rather than spend thousands on an eyelid lift. I use the 4 mm or 5 mm to get a small eyelid lift and I usually can’t see them. Great job, Camille.
I don’t need eyelid tape, but I loved your honesty. You are wonderful at explaining things, very personable and you don’t cut quarters as far as explaining or answering questions. But if I ever need to use eyelid tape, you are definitely the go to. Thank you for sharing.
Haha, I watched a commercial today about eye tape. Got a bright idea, to make a prototype with scotch tape. IT WORKS!!!! I actually went out today feeling a bit more confident knowing I have an eyelid. I just perfected the scotch tape and cut the tape a bit thinner. I don’t feel the scotch tape at all. I haven’t tried makeup yet, I was too thrilled by my discovery. I used invisible scotch tape. Try it, I’m happy with the results
Oh that eyebrow stencil thing is genius. I don't makeup but enjoy your way of talking.... it's like a friend chat. Very unique gift of gab when you're talking to a camera.
Camille, as I have told you in the past, your bravery to tackle face "situations" makes you beautiful no matter what. That eyelid tape takes practice. I gave up after a few days and thru them away! They do need to work on shadow sticky thingie part! Let makeup be the song of love. Play on girl.
Thank you for showing us what these are really like and the process. Nothing is ever straight forward. This has really helped me make a decision on whether to try these or not. I love your candidness. I think you’re great!👏👏👏.
Honestly, I didn't watch for the eyelid stickers, because I knew I would never get used to them, but I just love watching you put on your makeup! 😂 It is always flawless! ❤❤❤
I’ve been using these for awhile because I have uneven eyelids. I absolutely love them. There is a learning curve but once you get it the results are beautiful!
I think women who go on camera with no make up are honest and brave in a way, knowing how harshly women are judged. She’s showing you how the products work and what a difference the right color and finish makes. Nice work…. ❤
You gotta use the eyelid tape that's like a mesh. You put it on after you're done with your eyeshadow and it basically disappears. You can't really see it at all. The one that's really good is called like, cuticuter or something like that. It comes with a little plastic thing to fold your eyelid. It works really well. The kind this lady is using sucks. My mom bought that kind first and it's awful. You can always see it cuz it's too thick. The super thin mesh is where it's at. Def try those! 😁💜
I had just ordered these lid stickers! So happy to see your review. I had unrealistic expectations. However you look great. I am 73 and hope to see a good result. Love your channel! Hugs
Me too!! I've been considering surgery to correct them because the outside of my eye is basically closed all the time. I just wonder if the results last long enough to make it worth the discomfort. I might try the stickers first. Thank you!
Temu has the exact same things for 1.98 for way more. These have been out for a very long time, I bought them 6 years ago but I never tried them. So I'm glad you are here to show us. I've had such heavy lids all my life. I had blephroplasty twice and my health insurance paid for it. So thank you!!❤❤❤
@Heather Gaultier Temu has everything. Some stuff is really good and some junk , its a hit or miss. I can usually tell junk from the good things. Good luck with your eyelid tape.
it does work but i have read that dermatologists do not recomend it on a frequent basis because of the adheasive and also pulling and the tug on your eyelids can make them even worse in the long run
That's because you NEVER remove them by just pulling them off. ALWAYS wet them, wait a few minutes then just lift them off. There should not be ANY tugging of the eyelid whosoever. Most people use eyelid strips wrong. 🌹
Thank you for this current video using the Contour Rx eyelid strips! I purchased these recently and have been trying them out. I don’t think I have gotten the placement exactly right yet. My experience was very similar to yours but I purchased their eye primer and got the same results you did. Eye shadow didn’t really stick to it. My eyes are very hooded-they sit on my lashes. I’m going to keep trying 😂. Have a great day!!❤
This is just my experience but I think it can help you. I don't go anywhere without my makeup, especially eye makeup. So in order to do both - wear eye makeup and the eyelid tape -I do this: I complete the entire look - eyeshadow included - and THEN I apply the tape. The two obvious questions would be (1) does the tape stick to the shadow and (2) how can I do eyeshadow placement when I'm going to change the shape of my eye after applying shadow with the tape application. First and most importantly is getting the tape application right. That just takes practice. You just have to take the time to practice and you'll get it. #1 It will stick on top of the shadow but not very well and I would not advise going out in public with it. SO, take a little eyelash glue and put it on both ends of the tape while on your lid (I take a little glue, lift up the end of the tape with tweezers and use those same tweezers to place glue under the tape and gently press down). It will anchor the tape down all day. This is where your practicing comes in - it will be a lot easier if you're already comfortable and know where you want the tape so don't forget to practice. #2 The placement of your shadow will be different because the tape will change your eye shape. You will likely have to make slight adjustments to your shadow afterwards but it's no big deal. Hope this helps and good luck!
I appreciate your demonstration!! Two things really, I don't see a big enough change to go to all this trouble -- not just the stickers, but all the makeup. That said, I applaud you for your efforts, because your makeup is so well done. It's just not for me. Again, I appreciate your demonstration because now I know. Thanks!!
Omg I was looking at these yesterday after they came up on my Google feed, how do they know I have hooded eye's lol, when I saw your post I thought wow that woman is psychic, she knows I wanted to try these, I can't deny you've probably put me off because I know I'm going to struggle a LOT more than you, when the lady puts them on in the advert, she makes it look so easy, I'm sure practice makes perfect BUT I'm undecided. You completely made them work for you, you have become my favourite you tuber, your whole approach to makeup is fantastic and you make me want to make an effort with myself, you make it look easy and achievable. Keep up the super work babe x
Thank you for showing an honest demonstration of how these work. I honestly didn't even see a difference that would be worth all that effort. Thank you for saving me some money.
I don’t know what the instructions say, but it seem to me that the placement was too low on your demonstration. Might’ve gotten better effect if you had raised the tape, a little higher towards the actual crease.
Камилла, доброго времени суток! Я визажист и заметила много ошибок при нанесении макияжа. Самая важная ошибка когда глаза близко посаженны нельзя наносить тëмные тени близко к внутреннему уголку глаза, это делает их визуально ещё ближе🙈 и подводить глаза в таком случае лучше от середины глаза. Вы поставили тëмное пятно у внутреннего уголка левого глаза, у внешнего уголка растушевали тени, а там я всë видео ждала когда вы уберëте то тëмное пятно, но так и не дождалась.
Ha perfettamente ragione. In pratica la dolce signora, ha sbagliato completamente il trucco, chiudendo ancora di più gli occhi, già stretti di suo. Semmai doveva dare un punto luce nell'angolo del dotto lacrimale, non oscurare tutta la parte. Mi chiedo quando impareranno, che il chiaro tira fuori, e lo scuro infossa. Mah! Peccato perché col makeup corretto, sarebbe stata davvero magnifica.. e lasciamo perdere la base. 😉
I clicked on the link for the tape and watched the video there…it was very helpful. However, she did not show applying makeup like you did. The product video was good for explaining placement and tape size but yours was much more thorough!
I got a pack of these (another brand) on a Marshall's trip. I tried to use one and had the experience you did on your first try and I quickly got discouraged. I tucked them in a drawer and now you made me want to try them again!!! (I'm 54 btw)
I am so happy you did this video. I have been on the fence about these for months. Not sure whether to buy the ones you got or others that are on Amazon and much cheaper. Thanks doll.
The ones on Amazon are cheaper and I tried a set of them last year too. Read the description and see what it says about latex and medical grade materials. Experiment with the $8 ones, although they are not the same exact product, they will work similarly. Then if you like them go for the nicer set maybe.
Same here I didn't want to spend money on something that wasn't going to work but I glad camille has done this video maybe in time she will let us know the best eyeshadow to use with them as she has only had them a little while.
You are so so good at applying makeup. I bought eyelid tapes last year. I tried using them several times over the course of a month. I felt like, if I just had one more hand, I could do this. 😂 You look beautiful. Happy New Year.
Agree. Never could understand what that was all about. Camille did a great job, but strip needs to be on crease- hers was a little low. I'm still working on getting it right.
Thank you so much for showing different make up tips. I'm so glad you showed us how to use these strips for hooded eyes. I work with the public and I like to look presentable. ❤
I think they are a neat product. Definitely something I will be using more in the future:) And they do take a little practice! But nothing too hard, let me know if you try them!
Although the strip was slightly visible, your eyes looked great! Perhaps experimenting with primers, concealers, shadow color might remedy that problem a bit. Thanks for sharing.
I'm so glad I found you Re: these stickers. The only other time I saw a video about them was with a pretty Asian girl, but there was no English to explain how to use them! Yours was so very helpful! Thank you for your video on these.
I’m 87, hence hooded eyes.. I use some that you wet with water and apply.. love them. One eye is more hooded … I found that these will stay on thru the night if I apply them over my shadow!!!
Thank you for this excellent demonstration of how to help hooded lids looks better..your really looked good..In my humble opinion after you do them more often you'll have them down perfectly.
Thank you for showing us the lid stickers. I'm not sure I would use them. I did want to tell you your eyebrows made a beautiful difference in balancing your look and make-up colors. ❤
As I mentioned before. I tried them but at 72, the skin on my upper lids is so thin and crepey, they just droop over them. I was using Plexaderm for my under eye bags. Then I discovered Beverly Hills V-Lift Instant Eye Lift and Eye Tuck Bee Venom Serum for half the price of Plexiderm. I decided to try it on my upper lids. They stayed really good, but my powder eye shadows don't stick. So I'm back to the same old same old of doing my shadows to decrease the appearance of those upper lids. Sigh...😑😉🙃
Hi ~ I have to say that I am a daily wearer of lid tapes. However ~ not this type. I have tried MANY tapes, and my conclusion is that if you want really comfortable and totally INVISIBLE with make-up, the only way to go is the fiber ones that you spray with water to activate the glue. There's no comparison. They're comfortable and last all day. They also take practice, but consider doing a video comparison. You'll be amazed.
I need to order some! I have seen the type that is just glue - that's it. I have been wondering about it. Thanks for the info, I'll see if I can find what you are talking about.
Thanks for sharing and answering some questions I've had, like, can you feel it? can you use makeup with it? how to use an eyebrow stencil. Very informative and useful! Thank you!
You look Great!!! I couldn't really tell. But you did a wonderful job walking us through step by step on how to use these eye lifters. 👁 Not to mention your makeup tutorials. Thank you. 😊
Thank you. My eyes are more hooded than yours. About 18 months ago, I tried these and they made a small difference like you experienced. Last week I tried them again and found that as I age and the hood increases, it made no noticeable difference. Sad but true. Thanks again!
Did you know that they make different sizes? I have also seen some new type of eyelid glue that is supposed to be even better. Sounds a bit scary but there is a lady on tiktok that sells it. I need to get my hands on some! If I do, i'll post about it!
Thank you for the demonstration ive had these for awhile but afraid to try them maybe I will give them a try now thanks again and your lip colors are beautiful
И так каждый день делать.....? Ооооооооо, наверное лучше быть с нависшими веками........ Не проще ли просто тенями "утопить" веки и никаких заморочек. Тем более вы прекрасно выглядите и без макияжа!
You are the best at this! I am thrilled to see how many likes you have you certainly have earned them! I followed you on Tik-Tok and then I got off at tiktoks I was excited to see you on here😊
Hey Camille! I tried these about 2 years ago and it was a total failure and waste of money! Too sticky and impossible for me to work with. Thanks for your honesty!
I bought these and as much as I appreciate the concept, the end result for me wasn’t worth it. I can camouflage better with shadow. I can definitely feel them on my hooded eyes and they make me feel tired, my lids feel heavy. If I use without makeup, they are virtually invisible (except my right eye, I can see the ridge) but with make up, not a chance, that’s all I can see is the tape. The company says that they have a special primer to use with these. Not spending more money on something I’m not to impressed with.
It's interesting to hear everyone's experience. Some have better luck with results than others. I'm not sure if it how bad the hooded eye is, or if it's getting it just in the right place....👍👍
Since we are talking about the tape and watching you address putting makeup around it yes I can see it because I'm looking for it but if I was to not know and just walk up and talk to you then no I don't think I would notice it.
Thanks for the video. But you said, they are supposed to be applied in the crease and you put them on the lid. Maybe if you put them a bit higher, you will have a more noticeable difference? You look beautiful btw
Well done and that fixes the eyes, so now if they'd come up with something for above lip lines and marriotte lines. I thought of trying the tape, the ones you put in at night..., but I'm not sure. I'll be getting these for sure. Thanks Camille.
I was veery curious about these and just happened upon ur video. I have always had hooded eyes even as a teenager and never wore much makeup-blush and lipstick. All these years later I wanted to try eye makeup but it seems like I now have double hoods! Love watching you apply your makeup and ur eyes look so pretty 👍⭐️. I subscribed to see more of ur techniques:)
I’ve never used any of these yet, I’m 57 yrs old now and I’m feeling my age big time along with my hooded eyes, I just want to hide it just a lil bit now, so I’m seriously thinking about getting me some of these
These things don't do anything, or not much. I've tested them myself and I'm not convinced. Really think about an eyelid lift. Especially if your eyelid hangs over your eye and your field of vision is limited as a result. I decided to get an eyelid lift and have never regretted it. Every day when I see my eyes I'm happy about it.
So one of the things I noticed, is that when you put the tape on it was almost like the perfect cut crease! I’m wondering if you took a little bit of concealer on a brush and put it over where the tape is and then maybe just a tiny bit of light shadow pressed in with your finger if the tape would disappear completely? I’d love to see you give it a try and you know I have followed you on the eyebrow issue from the very beginning lol. And this looks different than the one that you were using before so now you know, you know, I have got to go try these lol 😂
That's funny because when I first put it on I had the same thought about the cut crease. When I have time I will play around with this more! Also, I recently saw another company that has a sticker that's similar but it goes OVER the eyeshadow! It looked really promising....something to look forward to!
I had upper blepharoplasty about 18 years ago as a cosmetic choice. It worked great and now almost 20 years later (age 70) the results are the same. It was money well spent. However, last year I had a lower blepharoplasty and it did very little to improve the undereye area. To be fair the same surgeon did both procedures and for the second one, he told me that it would make little difference so my bad.
I think your eyes aren't too bad, if the hooded eyes are worse, I think you get a more noticeable improvement, but some are so bad, surgery is all that can fix it... your eyes look quite good just from your make-up application. I'm 63 this year, I'm lucky as I do have reasonably good skin, but now I really have to look after it and use moisturiser etc...but the crinkled skin on eyelids is definitely my worst problem, and I've debated getting these little stick-ons myself... seeing your improvement, I just might give them a try 👍👍
These strips are great to even out my eyes - they both droop a bit, but one is much worse. I am using a strip just on that eye to even out and it's been great! I haven't figured out shadow over it. It just doesn't stick.
