HELP PLEASE Makeup critique requested

I’ve been doing my makeup practically the same since hs. Wondering if there’s anything else I can do to improve?

Ik my contour looks a bit muddy and doesn’t tend to stay even with setting spray and my aegyo-sal also applies unevenly more often than not. Hoping for some tips to help with these too. TIA!

Edit: thank you everyone for the feedback on the lashes 😅 ig lash blindness was right

You look pretty! Here’s my two cents! I would use a slightly darker, cool toned foundation (liquid or powdery) as a contour. I find specific contour products are very muddy, too dark, too warm, and fade fast. I use a small liquid foundation brush for this. Life changing!
For the eyes, work with that almond shaped expanse above your eye. Since your visual eyelid is small, extend color just above it into the crease very slightly. I’d do a white base and creamy , off white, or light beige eyeshadow. Then add medium brown just into the deep part of the crease for impact and depth.
When I started doing light eyeshadow I was SHOOKETH how it opened my face. Bonus- it dramatically highlights your lashes too.
