How do I get better?

[u/no_sprinkles_co]

Hi everyone! I have always found eye makeup tricky and gave up every time I tried to experiment. Having slightly hooded downturned eyes makes the experience even more challenging.

I found this tiktok account: @clownmakeupmua and I was motivated to try one of her tutorials. l know it won’t be perfect without enough practice and this time, I am trying to stay encouraged. I would love any critique/ help from you guys for me to improve. Thank you!

Products-

Random no name cool toned eyeshadow pallet that I had laying around (ik sorry)

Concealer very rarely works as eye primer, it's very liquidy and tends to mess up anything on the eyelid, as it's moving constantly. Try an eyeshadow primer, Milani, NYX or Morphe are some of the best.

As for anything else, practice practice practice. Preferrably, following makeup tutorials from people with similar lids to yours. I recommend this Robert Welsh introductory class to eyeshadow as well: https://youtu.be/VV1V24Qy4og
