Paint pot as a base in artifact
Cranberry e/s on lid
Sketch on crease
Shroom under brow

Honestly? I think your blending is on point. If you want to create a bit more depth, try adding a bit more of the darker color in the crease and maybe the outer v. But, I love the lightness of the look (I'm the one for soft, girly looks). Great job!

Thanks

I like light colors too, but I'll put some more sketch to see how it looks. Maybe some carbon or something? I dunno.

I think the blending itself is very nice. I think that if you add more color (to the crease like the person above mentioned) that might add more dimension, but it will also give you another blending challenge to work with.

Carbon works as well, just use a little bit to begin with and then keep adding.

And I also think that lining your upper lid would also look fab ...

This blending looks pretty good to me.

There is only one thing... I think it would be better if the darker colour didnt extend so far in the inner corner. Putting the darker colour into the corner tends to make the eyes look more close set. If you do have wide set eyes, then disregard what I just said.

It's great that you're working with blending. Next, why not try blending a matte colour with a frosty colour. Keep on challenging yourself, you will definitely reap the benefits.

Thanks everyone! Im such a dork, im copying and pasting all your comments into word to have a giant tip and comment list to practice from. hehe

Personally, i think its a bit too blended. I prefer to see gradients on colors in my e/s. I think the colors are great and i would love to see a darker color in the crease like carbon or nehru. A bit of liner and this would look awesome!

 

[baroquely]

I'd add a little bit of Sketch or Carbon (like people said above

) to deepen it a little bit. It'd really make it pop. And a little liner would help. Overall, I LOVE that combination of shadows. I think it's absolutely gorgeous and you're doing a nice job.

Good job! I think a little liner & some mascara would totally finish this look!

 

[entipy]

Looks good! I agree about more crease color and maybe liner on the top! From what I can tell, though, your blending looks fine!

This is exactly what I was thinking. These colors are gorgeous!

 

[xoleaxo]

you say youre a beginner but your blending looks so good! i agree with everyone else that maybe use a shade a little darker on the outside corner/crease.. and yes, some eyeliner & mascara would refine the look!

 

[urbanlilyfairy]

I agree with eveyrone ..the blending is really nice girl ....the look is fine as is ...you could for sure increase the depth by adding a darker color in the crease or outer v. Like Carbon or Sketch..but it looks great as is ..just missing some mascara and a touch of eyeliner maybe ... Keep up the good work !

 

[chocolategoddes]

I think your blending looksso good that it seems quite flat. A dark shade to add depth and some highlight would look great!

 

[nunu]

looks pretty! i would add more sketch and a bit of carbon to smokify the look
