HOODED or DOWNTURNED eyes? STOP Doing your makeup like a RU-vidr! Easy Eye Makeup Tutorial
How many of you have watched a makeup tutorial by a popular beauty guru, tried to recreate the look only to end up looking like a hot mess? Part of the reason could be because of your eye shape! Hooded eyes are challenging but they aren't a bad thing!!! Some of the most beautiful women in the world have hooded eyes!
Like many women, my eyes have gotten more hooded and downturned as I've gotten older. I have definitely had to change up the way I do my makeup. When we watch videos that have the same technique over and over, we start believing it's the ONLY correct way! This is simply not true.
I am not HATING on "gurus" because most of them do make it clear that they are not makeup artists.(Obviously I am aware there ARE other true artists on RU-vid- Monika Blunder, Jordan Liberty, Melissa Alatorre, etc.) The non-MUA RU-vidrs are very talented at putting makeup on their own faces, and who knows, maybe they WOULD do a great job on others! They also inspire me to try new things and I love them for that! My point is that when we watch so much of other people applying makeup to themselves, we forget that we all come in different shapes, colors and sizes. Makeup is not one size fits all, and the only thing I want to achieve with this video is helping people to experiment a bit more and try different methods to get YOUR PERSONAL best look! I hope you enjoy it!

So, so glad you made this video! As a working MUA for over 25 yrs, its nice to see someone who knows how to do "real" makeup. People get disappointed because they don't have the huge doe eyes like their fav youtuber and wonder why their makeup doesn't come out looking the same. Hooded eyes don't seem to be holding back stars such as Jennifer Lawrence, Michelle Williams, or Gisele Bundchen!

If there was an Oscar for the best make-up tutorial for hooded/downturned eyes you'd definitely win!!!!!!!!!

@RisaDoesMakeup 7 лет назад

Arya Stark Wow! Thank you so much!!!

@Onecoffeedupmom 3 года назад

Agreed. Best video I've seen on hooded eyes. Thank you!

@moniqueroybal4509 2 года назад

I feel so much relief watching this video,I'm not the only one who struggle with this.Thank you so much for helping us .

@judyklette6646 5 лет назад

I know this video is a year old but I just found your channel not too long ago. I'm going to be turning 50 years old next month and I've been searching for videos for the mature, hooded & downturned eyes. I've always had hooded eyes but as I've gotten older they've become more hooded & downturned. When I was younger, I always put on my eyeshadow just like you did in this video. I took a step back from wearing makeup altogether for quite a few years and then recently started wearing it again. I found all these videos about how to put on makeup but could never get the eyeshadow right. It looked horrible. Thanks to you, I now know I can go back to putting it on like I did when I was younger. Thank you so much for this video and I look forward to watching more of them. I just want to say you're very beautiful and very professional. Take care & until next time, Love!!!

It's so refreshing to see another RU-vidr talking about pre-social media makeup technique!

@RisaDoesMakeup 7 лет назад

There are definitely many pros to social media, but the major con I see is everyone starting to look the same. I miss individuality, and think it should be shown and celebrated more often than it is. Thank you for taking the time to watch my video and for your comment!

@rachelmakeup 7 лет назад

No prob! I think the exact same as you on this--I love the looks but there's so much else out there!

@tedire2000 7 лет назад

@bywendywithlove9052 7 лет назад

I used to work for Trish in NY & I agree, in my day there was no such thing as a transition color just light, medium, & dark

@facingthefifties 7 лет назад

This was, hands down, the MOST helpful video I think I've ever watched! I have tried the "RU-vid" way for years, and it just never worked on me. Thank you so much for sharing your expertise! I can't wait to try this tomorrow when I get ready!

@RisaDoesMakeup 7 лет назад

Deanne N Yay!!!! I am so happy to hear that! I hope it helps you!!! Xoxo

@saracasperson4849 7 лет назад

Agreed. this was extremely helpful! LOVE IT!

@RaeBella81 7 лет назад

@elizabethmilligan7173 7 лет назад

@andree824 7 лет назад

Totally agree with you. This was brilliant!!

@annagresta3840 7 лет назад

I just have to comment AGAIN because I watched this 2 times. This is possibly the best "tutorial" video I have ever seen. EVER! And I have watched a lot of RU-vid videos (like hours and hours every night). Thank you again!

@RisaDoesMakeup 7 лет назад

Ann Agresta 😀😀😀❤️❤️❤️

@annagresta3840 7 лет назад

Risa Does Makeup I just did my makeup this morning, following your tips in this video and I love how my eyes look. they look less hooded and more open. I am at my mom's this week so I have more time to play around with makeup since I am on vacation from work! I just can't get over how great my eyes look today. You are a genius 😆

@venusblake4206 7 лет назад

Wow!! Finally a tutorial that really hits the mark. Thank you so much...simple yet effective. I needed this. Yo

@samouhi 7 лет назад

Ann Agresta It's amazing. In the "old days" for us over 35's, makeup counter ladies would hardly ever impose one look for everyone. Now unfortunately they do and reinforces the Instragram look which is a real shame as like someone else said, everyone starts looking the same

@lolitachick0161 7 лет назад

Holy Crap! Finally a tutorial that made perfect sense for my over 40 eyes! My eyes started to hood around 2 years ago and I have had to adjust my eyeshadow technique but been struggling! But this totally helped me thank you!!!

@RisaDoesMakeup 7 лет назад

You are SO welcome!! I'm thrilled to hear that!

@jackiesue3891 7 лет назад

Since entering my 50's I definitely feel like what used to work no longer does. I'm now trying to find out what does work and I can't wait to try this on my increasingly hooded and down turned eyes. A great and well explained technique!

@VintageModiste 7 лет назад

Old school, new school it all works when you mix it all together. Love this video, and I have to tell you that only your tutorials work on downturned hooded eyes. My self esteem has tripled, and my eye makeup look has improved so much due to watching your video's! FYI, you are the only beauty guru!

@RisaDoesMakeup 7 лет назад

This comment is exactly why I do videos!!! Thank you so much!

@foodieJJ623 7 лет назад

Special thanks to Risa! I'm asian, 25, and I have the most hooded n downturned eyes ever! I've been struggling to put some eyeshadows on my lids and spent extra time to make it even and look nice on my eyes. This tutorial from you changed the whole thing! Used to follow the make up gurus but didn't work. The eyeshadow n eyeliner looks so good on my lids now. So glad that I watched this. U are my fairy god mother😍😍😍

@jenniferbauer2145 7 лет назад

And now that I've actually watched it, thank you again! I think you're the only youtuber I've ever watched who has actually explained things like how to find the crease. So many people assume a lot of knowledge on the part of their viewers - I love that somebody who doesn't know anything at all about makeup could leave feeling like they know how to do this!

@rebeccaworrell4605 5 лет назад

I love how thoroughly you explained this! I love how close up to the camera you were too. It was so much easier to understand!

@brandywinelewis 7 лет назад

I don't know how I stumbled upon this but I'm so glad I did! I'm in my 20's but definitely get tired of the cookie cutter IG looks 24/7. I struggle with wings having hooded, downturned eyes and I think we forget that it's okay not only to experiment with technique but to be different in general. This was refreshing and oh so helpful, thank you!

@annagresta3840 7 лет назад

I love your outlook on makeup! I think at our age (40 and over) we can appreciate the "non instagram" makeup looks. Sometimes I just get sick of it all looking the same. Don't get me wrong, I love to do the Instagram eye and the winged liner once in a while. But as a fellow "hooded eye" girl, I need to calm down with the wing once in a while :) Another great video! I appreciate all the hard work you put into this channel.

@RisaDoesMakeup 7 лет назад

Ann Agresta Thank you Ann! I too like to try different looks but at some point we have to come to terms with what really looks best on us!

@mrstiffanella 7 лет назад

Ann Agresta thank you, is there anything wrong with not being 21 but still wanting to look great without looking like your trying to look 21 lol , I'm just trying to get tips on looking my best so I can feel my best!

@bephoebe 7 лет назад

I agree. As I get older, and the eyelids get droopier and crepier, I am finding less is more. I love a bold smokey eye, but I need to scale that back a bit!

@kristinc2313 7 лет назад

Ann Agresta I am 32 and I do not like the Instagram eye at all. Especially when I see it on a 15 year old. I love your techniques.

@effiebug4278 7 лет назад

Amen!

@larissakirby1821 6 лет назад

Fantastic! I don't feel alone anymore..lol. I've done this old school look and technique for ages! The new RU-vid style does not work for me with hooded and downturned 40 plus eyes . Great video and a new subscriber.

@Mrsrchy17 3 года назад

Oh my goodness, I turned 40 last year and was looking for some “updated” makeup inspiration. So I tried doing my makeup the trending look right now. I looked like a clown. It. was harsh. 🤦🏼‍♀️😂 Sooo grateful that “old school” technique is still relevant and that I’ve been doing it right for myself all these years. I will say, though, that I LOVED her advice on using the transition color LAST instead of first. I’m going to start doing that. I think it’ll make a huge difference. When she grabbed that flat line brush to do winged eyeliner the old way, I was like YES! 🙌🏼☺️

@jenniferbauer2145 7 лет назад

I've barely even started this video and I feel the need to comment. THANK YOU for bringing up this "back to basics" concept. I have been struggling for ages to find a youtube makeup channel that actually understands that other people have different face shapes and features. I would love to see some of the more well known youtubers put makeup on another person (and I mean that sincerely).

@New2MomBlog 7 лет назад

I don't typically comment but I wanted to let you know your video inspired me. A little back story: I'll be 36 in a couple of months. Just a couple years ago, I started to get into makeup. I've been frustrated since trying to figure out how to apply eyeshadow that didn't look like crap. I've pretty much given up and just use one color. I don't know if I necessarily have hooded eyes but I thought I'd try your technique. I received the makeup forever palette and I've been trying the looks that came in the guide. It's been a mess so I figured it couldn't get worse. Lol. It's now almost 1 am and I've tried your technique on both eyes with different color combinations. I'm legit so excited on how it turned out! I don't want to sound dramatic, but this video may have changed my life. I wish it was earlier in the night and I actually had somewhere to go. I feel so confident. Luckily we have plans tomorrow and I can't wait to try again. I'm also so excited that I can use a palette that I love and I'm no longer hating it bc I couldn't get it to work for me. I love the looks that a lot of youtubers do but I just can't recreate them bc of my lack of skill or the fact that I don't have a lot of eye lid area to work with. I try to use all 10 of the colors and I end up looking like a hot mess. Your video really hit home and made me realize that I need to do what works for me. It's definitely an aha moment for me and I thank you. One question. If I wanted to use pinks or purples, would I still want to use the darker color in the crease? I have the morphe 35f and I love the jewel tones but have no idea on what to do with them. Thanks again for this video. It's amazing how something so simple as learning a new makeup technique can increase my confidence.

@RisaDoesMakeup 7 лет назад

Michelle Brown Hi Michelle! I don't know why I didn't see this comment before, I am so sorry! I definitely would have replied sooner!! I can't tell you how happy it made me to read this!!! If you are going to use purples and pinks, or any jewel tones, I would probably use them in the crease, but the blend out with a light neutral shade. It's all about taking the time to blend well when using more vibrant colors.

@Galemor1 5 лет назад

Wayne Goss is also one to look into. But this was nice, I have severely hooded eyes, were the skin hangs over my eyes. I am in my early 30ish, so not really looking forward to it getting worse.. :-P

@staceyo1723 7 лет назад

I have found the easiest way to tightline - Pixi makes a black felt tip liner "cat eye ink." It's a slanted hard tip so you just stamp it under the lashes. It doesn't make my eyes water, takes 5 seconds, and stays put. It's a game changer for my hooded lids.

@RisaDoesMakeup 7 лет назад

Stacey O Thanks for recommendation Stacey! I will look for that.

@mckedenashuntter8074 7 лет назад

Stacey O I will, too. Thanks!

@JinxLoveHate3 7 лет назад

23 years old and have hooded and downturned eyes. When I first got into makeup I thought the RU-vid way was the only way to do things. Little by little I said forget it and started doing my makeup my own way. no RU-vid videos no nothing just what I thought made me look my best. It makes me happy to see some of the techniques I've been using are actual techniques that makeup artist would use. If only this video was around when I first started doing makeup lol. Thanks for the boost of confidence

@melindastowers7772 7 лет назад

This is the video that changed everything for me. I re watch it when I need a refresher. You have helped so many people like me. Love and Blessings 💖💖💖

@VivienneGucwa 7 лет назад

Awesome video!! I also fell victim to thinking that all the tutorials on YT would work for my eyes not realizing that my eyes are semi-hooded and so many of those looks didn't work so well.

@MrsMelissaM 7 лет назад

I absolutely love what you said at the end about no right or wrong way, just working with what looks best on us individually. Such a great tutorial. simply beautiful look for hooded/down turned eyes. Thank you thank you

@tigerrosetattoo 5 лет назад

I used to do my makeup like this, so thank you for reminding me how I really like to do my eyeshadow. I feel with all the makeup videos it can get really overwhelming to try to do it like a RU-vidr, and sometimes it just doesn’t work, but what you did is the perfect way for my eyes. Sometimes we just have to go back to basics just like you said. I learned from 90s early 2000s makeup artists and in my opinion they are still the best teachers with the best techniques that work for me personally. So thanks again for reminding me what works for me ❤️

@lisaperko9692 7 лет назад

It's so good to finally hear from someone who places the emphasis on individuality of eye shapes and the simple need to "tweak" techniques to suit. As with Deanne N, I also thought it was the most helpful video I've watched to date! I'm trying this out tomorrow too! Thanks Risa.

@FanofHarper 7 лет назад

I love how you break down all the steps so I can actually follow you! I'm offically setting my alarm for an earlier time than usual so I can try out your tips. Thanks so much!

@RaeBella81 7 лет назад

HANDS DOWN THE BEST VIDEO ON RU-vid!!!! Risa, you LITERALLY just changed my, "Hooded-Eye Life!!!" Years watching RU-vid and this is the first time I have ever received REAL HELP with my hooded-eye problem. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!

@RisaDoesMakeup 7 лет назад

You're welcome!! I am SO happy my video helped you! I truly appreciate you taking the time to comment and let me know. People like you are the reason I never gave up on my channel!

@RaeBella81 7 лет назад

I, for one, hope you never give up on your channel. It is not that often anymore that you can find genuine, talented, helpful, and amazing people like you. I am so grateful. This new technique has literally saved my life. Like you said in your video, I tried to follow the steps these other girls on RU-vid were using. My eye-shadow came out muddy and unflattering. All that has changed because of you. I never wore, nor did I know how to apply makeup until I was 33 years old. RU-vid taught me how. However, I have learned more from you in the last few days than I have from everyone else in the last couple years. THANK YOU!!!!!

@RisaDoesMakeup 7 лет назад

Bella Rae oh my gosh I just saw this!!! Thank you so much, reading this made me so happy! I'm so glad I can help people feel better about themselves and their makeup skills!

@RaeBella81 7 лет назад

You're so very welcome!!! So glad I found your channel.

@hootiemaniac 4 года назад

Omg! Where have you been all my life. I’ve always had issues with doing my eyes, as I do have hooded eyes, and now that I’m in my 40’s, it’s worse. Thank you, thank you, thank you for this video! ❤️

@lashawnablanton4649 7 лет назад

I totally agree, I use this same technique I have for years. I actually figured it out on my own. I think it works great. Thanks for sharing. God bless!

@remmy7778 7 лет назад

Ty for the video and answering to my comment. I am a 64yr old women and still trying to do a wing on my down hooded eyes and I will try again.

@RisaDoesMakeup 7 лет назад

Wilma Traylor I hope these tips help! Remember you can do a tiny wing or none at all at it will still look nice!

@ShellyWellyisbored 5 лет назад

Just went step by step with this video and loved the result! I have been doing my eyeliner wrong for years! I am sooooo glad I found your channel! Thank you so much!

@ibbase447 7 лет назад

I love how you actually took time to explain everything step by step, instead of treating us like we are makeup professionals whose been licensed for ten years, I don't like the fact that they just explain the foundation and contour part , but when it comes to eyes, they're like just blend and wah-lah you're done. I had to google what each eye brush was made for and what transition colors & ect. were used for. Thanks for taking your time out of your day and being helpful. THIS is what a "makeup tutorial" should be like.

@alicasabrinanilo3372 7 лет назад

This is the best tutorial I have ever seen for hooded eyes! It's very helpful for me, a woman of 25 with hooded eyes & my lovely grandma who's 69. We're both attending a wedding soon and I'm her usual MUA. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING THIS

@annahussey6453 7 лет назад

Thank you so much... this was so helpful! I would love for this to be a series, like different techniques and eye looks for hooded lids. For example, taking Instagram/"fancy" looks like glitters, cut creases and etc and show us how to do those looks for hooded eyes! Thanks, Risa!

@RisaDoesMakeup 7 лет назад

Anna Hussey Great idea!

@allisonsmithrudnick7676 5 лет назад

@lisagreenwood9169 6 лет назад

@desireegutierrez5647 7 лет назад

This was amazing! I always feel like a Schlub when I try the "RU-vid" way! The eye lash tip is awesome! Thank you for exciting me about my makeup again!

@silvermint5281 7 лет назад

OMG!!! Thank you for stepping outside the box and showing us hooded peeps how to create a beautiful eye look!! I've done it the way other RU-vidrs are showing nowadays, but it turned up looking muddy and unnatural. This is so doable and I love the tip on how to cut and place the falsies. I have very long eyelashes naturally, so I don't use falsies but I may try your tip for date night😏. THIS IS NOW MY GO-TO EYE LOOK!! I appreciate you teaching us how to do makeup RIGHT! God bless you!~*

@terryhutchings7701 7 лет назад

Thank you Risa! I have struggled with my hooded eyes since high school and just finally gave up on eye shadow altogether. Now at age 60 I'm ready to give it another whirl. Cannot wait to try this technique. Geat step by step video and thank you for zooming in on your eyes, so viewers can actually see what you are doing. You are great and I will be watching more!

@_sustosotsus_9240 7 лет назад

Thank you so much! I almost gave up on using eye shadow because I no longer felt like it was doing anything for me as I was trying to recreate all of the younger RU-vid gurus but I am going to try your tips tomorrow and I know they'll help

@jessicam5090 7 лет назад

This video made me subscribe to you. THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH for making this. I'm 33, I'll be 34 in 2 days. I've always done my makeup, but not as intense, and as I've aged, became a tired stay at home mom & a wife, I've decided that I want to at least look presentable daily make so I've rediscovered that makeup makes me feel good, makes me more comfortable in my own skin. After watching thousands of these young ladies and men and their tutorials, and feeling like I look like I clown when I replicate their looks, I've kind of given up. The one day, I discovered a lady by the name Stephanie Marie. She's in her 40s, and also has hooded, downturned eyes. She wears soft, subtle makeup and I've learned a good amount of info from her, and I just really enjoy her videos in general. But today is different, today is magical because I discovered YOU. This single video has helped me tremendously and I can't wait to do my face tomorrow morning and incorporate your eyeshadow lesson that you just bestowed upon me. From the bottom of this tired mom who just wants to feel good in my own skins heart, THANK YOU. ❤👏👏

@angieparton6434 3 года назад

Just love your channel! Even though I’m 62 I don’t ever feel that your content isn’t meant for me. Of course some videos are more or less appropriate for me due to my individual needs, concerns, etc. but you never make me feel “aged out”. Thank you for that!

@taralynn7771 7 лет назад

I want to personally "ty" so very, very much for changing my life! I have always had problems applying eyeshadow that it frustrated me to no end! After seeing this particular video and using the techinques you displayed, my eyeshadow goes on effortlessly! 😊 I cannot believe what a difference it has made in my makeup routine! I get compliments all of the time on my "eye" looks! (This may sound strange; but I never really knew I had hooded eyes until you described what they were- Now that I know, it makes life alot easier) Plz keep the "tutorials" coming bc I LOVE them so very much!

@Poznog 4 года назад

Omg! Thank you for this! I never thought of looking down, into a mirror. I'm definitely trying this, tomorrow! I just subscribed to your channel, after watching this and your brushes for hooded eyes, video. I think this is going to be a total game changer! Best hooded eye video, by far (& I've watched a ton of them)!

@jcjccmz 7 лет назад

OMG, this video is such a breath of fresh air here on youtube. Thank you so much! The last thing I watch on youtube are eye look tutorials because they are usually done on big eyes with deep creases. I truly hope you will focus more on these kinds of videos, where you can share your knowledge with tips on how to work with our features and flatter them. I think there is a movement starting on youtube where people are getting sick of hauls and fabricated monthly "favorites" videos where the youtuber sneaks in a product sent to her so she can "rave" about it. Anyway, I just wanted to say this is actually how I usually do may eye look because the "youtuber" way is impossible with my no-crease eyelids.

I am SO GLAD I found you!!! I am 50 yrs old and just started watching the youtube beauty/makeup videos (after seeing my adult daughter watch them for years ;)and I am SO HAPPY to find an older woman teaching tips and techniques for more mature faces; I knew a lot of the instructions the younger set were giving probably weren't the best for older women, but that's all that was out there except for one or two other makeup artists. Thank you and keep up the tips for the older set!

@HeidiAnn5 6 лет назад

HIGH FIVE on the best Hooded Eye tutorial video out there. I have hooded eyes and I can't wait to try this. I haven't tried false lashes but the half trick sounds like it would be easier. Thank you so much for this video. xoxo Heidi

@asgothas 7 лет назад

I have been trying out "hooded eyeliner" tutorials for weeks, and because my eyes are now more downturned and hooded (age 40) I always end up with thick ole wings that are of the Amy Winehouse proportions. Not great for work. This tutorial seems to make a lot more sense, although personally I think I will have to stick to matte shades. Cant wait to try it out. Thanks Risa!

@massarassa 7 лет назад

This has changed my makeup game! Thank you so much for making this! I have never been able to do my eyes like "everyone else" .... Thanks again! 💞

@MeganAshleySmith 7 лет назад

Wow, this was incredibly helpful!! It's so nice to see someone do a breakdown instead of the same ol videos. It's nice to see something different and informative rather than watching someone slap it on and just give you the colors they're using, especially when everyone is so different. Not all of those vague videos that are so often done, are ones that everyone can use. Thanks so much for being informative and different!

@BlaqkEye888 7 лет назад

Thank you! Thank you! This video is amazing. This is the first video I have seen in a long time that not only addresses an issue many of us have (myself included) but celebrates it. 👏

You had me at “hooded eyes” darling. I have always love eye shadow and eye liner but I struggle so much that I rather just wear mascara only. I will definitely practice your tips tomorrow morning. I have so many beautiful palettes that I haven’t even tried yet.

Oh,my gosh! This is the best thing I have learned about doing eye make up for hooded, down turned eyes EVER! I can't thank you enough for sharing these techniques.

@kr0wn.aSSaSSin 7 лет назад

Thanks for this video, because this is almost exactly how I do my eye makeup, and after seeing all these RU-vidrs tutorials, I've started thinking that I'M the one doing it all wrong!! I've been doing makeup since I was 14 (I'm now 34) I also studied makeup in the early 2000's, and THIS is the way I was taught, way back before all this contouring & highlighting etc. My makeup most of the time looks bad before it looks good lol. After seeing this I feel reassured! Thank u!

Tracy Shaw Thanks Tracy! 😊❤️

@av2827 7 лет назад

Tracy Shaw the difference is that Risa is an educated professional MUA and so many of the other beauty influencers are just ppl who really like makeup and are good at putting it on their own face. That's not to say that I don't like other channels too for different reasons (Jessica Braun for instance does thorough honest reviews and does her own makeup beautifully).

@dishy_forlife4162 7 лет назад

Couldn't hit Subscribe fast enough! This is the 1st video I've watched of yours & it's as if you made it just for me! I cannot wait to try your technique when I get up tomorrow. THANK YOU from this 48year old chick who loves of ALL things makeup whilst having severely hooded eyes & droopy, crepey lids!

@RisaDoesMakeup 7 лет назад

Welcome to my channel! I am so happy that you found me and that you enjoyed this video!

@dishy_forlife4162 7 лет назад

Thank you! I feel welcomed just by reading your comment. **UPDATE: I did your technique today on my eyes & I'm BLOWN AWAY by how a simple change of starting with color on the mobile lid & blending it up into the hood instead of starting with a transition color--LIFE CHANGING! To be honest, I was eager to try it, but it felt so wrong at first bcuz nobody does this on RU-vid & I've told myself "this must be the only way" & I'm so grateful for you & your tutorial to set me free from being beyond frustrated bcuz I can't make my eyes look like everybody else. In ONE video, you've helped me embrace my flaws & for the first time in a decade I truly felt like my outer beauty matched my inner beauty🙏🏼💖 THANK YOU RESA!!!

Love your videos Risa!! I have also figured out many of these tips on my own, but it is great to see a confirmation and also new tips!Thank you!!

Congratulations!!!! This video is so helpful! U r such a pro!

@dizzee5768 7 лет назад

Great video....glad u addressed the fact about YT gurus...I was also taught in makeup school about eyes, face shape etc and that's how u should look at ur client or urself to do makeup...i think this is missing a lot with most tutorials...i don't think you were being critical at all regarding the YT looks....ty

@beckyevans6692 5 лет назад

Hi Risa!! Finally someone who understands us young or mature ladies with hooded eyes! I subscribe to other youtubers, but you are the first one to accomplish what no one else has been able to do. I am mature retired makeup artist and you are amazing! New subscriber!! Becky

@mikip.1530 6 лет назад

You are a breath of fresh air! I'm over 40 and hooded eyed and really never perfected the winged eyeliner. I like to keep up with the trends, but I'm also not 21 anymore. You really changed the way I'll do my routine! Thank You!! 😁

@Yayidiaz27 7 лет назад

Excellent tutorial! I'm trying this new way. Thank you, lots of help.

@loriweinrib4866 7 лет назад

First time watching your videos and loved this!! Over 50 and this was the best tutorial for hooded eyes E.V.E.R.!!!!!!! Thank you!!!!

@nicadrmar 7 лет назад

I consider myself experienced w makeup and still learned so much from this video, you're a great teacher. You are so right about having to abandon what you see the YTer's do and find techniques that work best for you.

@valerievalagator6780 6 лет назад

This is one of the best tutorials I have come across. I love the fact that you zoomed in super close and really explained each step and why. Thank you!

@shellywalklin6547 7 лет назад

So helpful. I have always done transition shade first, can't wait to try this . Great video!

@Kiekerz 7 лет назад

I've been doing the winged eyeliner thing since high school (1999ish), but as I've gotten older (34 now), my eyes have definitely become more downturned and it's harder to get the winged liner and eyeshadow to look right, and I've watched multiple make-up tutorial videos, but I still have trouble getting it just right. It's 3 A.M. and I'm watching videos on RU-vid, so I'm not going to attempt make-up right now, but I am going to try some of these tips later.

@wanderlust922 5 лет назад

Finally a RU-vidr that does a great job. I almost gave up wearing eyeshadow. Your heaven sent thank you soo much. I will be showing my teens your video too.

@rswife777 7 лет назад

I'm so happy to have found this channel. I'm 43 & have hooded eyes and feel like I can nevet match what the younger beauty channels are doing, which is very fruatrating. Your videos are so helpful and give me a new, better way that works on my face. Thank You!!

@chrissmarie455 7 лет назад

Im 25 and my eyes are moderately hooded and I do my makeup this way since I was like 19 I find it way more flattering I studied cosmetology and this is how they educated me to always do makeup based on the clients specific needs! Loved this

@mstaylor28031 7 лет назад

OMG! I've been watching hooded eye video's for over a year, and still couldn't do it right. But this is the video that has taught me what I've been doing wrong for my hooded down turn eye. Thank You!

@gloriatyson4620 7 лет назад

Wow! I've not seen this technique before. Thank you so much! I will experiment this week and weekend. I have several false lashes, but have been afraid to try. Will now!

@lizardbean613 7 лет назад

I was thrilled to watch this video and see the polished versions of techniques I developed independently to deal with my hooded and downturned eyes! I (only 21) may not be in your target audience, but thank you so much for making this video!

@aprilolson1066 6 лет назад

I love you! The way you explain doesn't leave me lost and doing a ton of unnecessary steps. I'm obsessed with your videos and so happy I found your channel. Thank you!

@urbanchicky7196 7 лет назад

Very good tips. I agree that the eyeliner should really be the focus with hooded eyes. A lot of eye shadow tends to be the issue. One look that I do a lot because it just works so well with aging eye lids is to use one main color. I use a Dior eye primer, which also makes a great highlight. on my lid I use a very light brown or taupe. One of my favorites is Burberry's Barley. I use it one my lid and slightly into my crease. It may not be the most exciting look, but it lasts and stays in place. It's especially good for daytime looks.

UrbanChicky It sounds perfect!

I was born with hooded eyes (there's next to no mobile lid visible with my eyes open). Very helpful instruction! Thank you! Kristin

@jenGeeJushawshee 7 лет назад

jeepersluck I think many of us were, Kristin! I know I was, when I look at first grade (and younger) pictures of myself, they are very prominent and also downturned at the outer corners ... and very small on top of it! I feel triple cursed!!

@jeepersluck 7 лет назад

I feel you! Thankful for Risa's help!

@Winona493 5 лет назад

Exactly the same!!!!!! Thumbs up! Although it is in American English and I am German, I understood everything and I think it'll help me so much for it is not easy to have 48 year old and hooded, down-turned eyes.

@michellet5978 7 лет назад

This is how I've always done my shadow but it took me time to figure out that my eyes were different and that this was more flattering. Great video!
