[@celenteria5994]

[@GabiBrooks]

Do it with a black smokey please

[@mus1quenonst0p]

i wish i could triple like this video. this inspired me to do a smokey eye!

[@lauries2757]

Love your actual tutorials that tell us WHAT, WHEN, WHY, HOW we apply makeup the way we do. BTW, the lipstick tutorial is info I never knew I needed. Wearing my lip liner today and what a difference ☺️

[@AlexandraAnele]

😩 Thank you Laurie, I’m so glad that video helped! 🙌🏼❤️❤️❤️

[@lucklessluce557]

Yes I also tried the lipliner thing today and it works so well 😃

[@lauries2757]

@@AlexandraAnele … let the hunt for the best and most complementary lip liner color begin! 💄

[@aa-tt5yy]

YES. literally no one else does that!!

[@changeeyecolor3891]

Do what you love.

[@laurenj347]

A shimmery inner corner will ALWAYS be my go-to for helping me look a little more awake & bring more focus to my eyes/eye look.

[@byggrynsgroet]

yes! who the hell decided that's not cool or pretty or super-useful anymore? i think a nice shimmery inner corner is just gorgeous😍

[@Verbsdescribeus]

Since I discovered the halo smokie looks, there is no inner corner to and it makes my tiny eyes larger!

[@changeeyecolor3891]

Really enjoyed reading...

[@kellymunsen7473]

I found this to be true

[@daytodaej]

SHIMEY FORVER

[@jalice3916]

Alex, you have raised the bar when it comes to tutorials that address our issues. My 20s were the 1990s. I adored the Supermodels and devoured 3 Vogues each month. I have very little realestate on my mobile lid and my idea of a smoke lid would look like I had a year of unwashed Kohl on my eyes. Today, with this Virgo turning 54 soon, you have given me the skills, the tools and the gentle encouragement to do this and rock it like I am 23 again. Love to you!

[@ExanthePRKL]

Shimmery innercorner is also very like 2008. It's one of those things that keeps coming back for a reason. We called that really obvious shimmer white in the inner corner like 2010 and before as "seagulshit". People need to stop saying anything is out dated cause it's just personal preference

[@changeeyecolor3891]

Work a day in your life.

[@Natinatification]

I will NEVER stop putting a shimmery or at least light innerconer. I find it like blush, a basic. If it is flattering on most people why would we stop?

[@justsomerandomperson761]

I currently have a headache, and have been clicking through videos trying to find one that wouldn’t make it worse, and none of them except yours were chill enough to listen to comfortably. I always love the casual, chill vibes of your content :)

[@13vo7]

One of the best MUA on KZbin straight to the point no BS love it

[@SloppyJunkPants]

YAASSSSS!!! Shimmer corner FOREVAH!!!! Screw trends (imo). And the taupe water line kills 💜

[@MrGreenwald]

You, Wayne Goss, Lisa Eldridge, Scott Barnes, and Robert Welsh give top tier makeup advice. Love it

[@imaginepithynamehere4257]

I'd love to see you do that sleepy/bitchy eye that all those "wolf cut" haired chicks are doing on TikTok. Or were doing, if that trend has come and gone already? Lol. Also, seeing you tackle a few "alternative" looks would be cool, too. Goth, E-girl, maybe go all-out for Halloween, and do something black metal inspired? So many suggestions! I've said this before, but I really want to see you get a bunch of Rituel De Fille products, and play around with those. They're this indie, vampy, clean beauty brand I'm obsessed with rn, but I'm having issues with longevity for their eye products. They have these universal cream pigments that are awesome. Basically everything is a cream; even their powder eye shadows have an emollient feel to them. I'm curious to see what your take on the brand would be, if you could somehow get a bit more duration out of their eye products.

[@Leticia270105]

👏🏻 YOU 👏🏻 WEAR 👏🏻 THAT 👏🏻 SHIMMY Gotta love this MUA!

[@TheCalebMoline]

I’d stopped doing shadow because it just didn’t feel fun anymore, but every time I watch one of your videos I have so much fun playing with it again. 😊

[@jeanshepherd732]

Alex I love your makeup no matter what you do😊, I would like to see an eye look for older women that still looks beautiful but not to much over the top for us older ladies. Thank you keep doing what your doing!

[@estelle9868]

i love Alex's energy so much

[@ames_elaine]

THANK YOU for not hating on the inner corner highlight!!! i do love a glitter eye w/ a matte inner corner & bright colored waterline bc contrast. but glitter corner is *chef's kiss*

[@tins369]

Yeeeeeessssssss!!!! Shimmery inner corner for EVERRRRRRRRR 🤩

[@peace4callie]

💯 ‼️ 🎯

[@chaoswitch1974]

I love the reddish that always comes out in the browns you use.

[@ValenzuelaIvanLee]

I know you heard this a lot, but I don't really care to remind you.... You aren GORGEOUS ! Love the tutorial !

[@overdose8879]

The only Chanel that actually teach you how to do your makeup, with no drama sh*t

[@marybeth23]

When you first started the look, I thought, oh that won't work for my eyes. But of course, the more you added, the more I thought, hmmm maybe. I have the Mario liner and it really makes a big difference for me. Another gorgeous look, and thanks again for explaining how and why you place the shadows and the final result. Beautiful!

[@changeeyecolor3891]

Love fashion and makeup...

[@ArtistJane]

ALEX YOU’RE A GENIUS! I absolutely love this because as someone with deep set eye and lots of lid space, I’ve always wanted to utilize smoky eyes, but I always looked like someone punched me or I’m half dead. Shimmery inner corner is something I’ve always utilized because of my deep set eyes too. You can even take that slightly on the inner bottom lash a bit. It’ll really open the eyes. Do these methods still apply to colorful eyeshadow? Like a smoky blue or purple?

[@christinebell8692]

At the very beginning of the video, Alex said, “Pick literally any color”. 😉 I think all of her tips would work for any color that makes you feel good or happy.

[@changeeyecolor3891]

Love your work.

[@athinamariaverivakiscorone1789]

As personal experience, considering I have dark circles and very deep set eyes. I just would suggest you to avoid very warm colors or black. Neutrals and cools shouldn’t look like a punch in the face

[@slayqueenaaf]

after i realized how other beauty influencers were having me do my makeup in a way tht didn’t look good irl i was scared to follow any other trends or tutorials, but watching ur videos has fr elevated my makeup game thank u sm! it’d be dope asf if you did a makeup master class where we can pay to all do out makeup w u!!

[@flor201290able]

When you applied that shimmer shade to the middle of your lower lashline , you can instantly see how it brings out the color of your eyes !! Thank you so much for sharing these tips ! 😭

[@changeeyecolor3891]

This is really helpful...

[@changeeyecolor3891]

[@lateonsetmakeuplover]

Love your teaching! Would love to see how you would do a smoky eye on a 60 year old eye. Would love to have the confidence to go for it!

[@changeeyecolor3891]

Love this channel.

[@salvinamarkezinis6938]

Yes and/or over 50's going out Friday night l want those peepers popping. Got brown Hazel deep set eyes oh and what colour lipstick to use with dark brown eyeshadow thanks

[@mrsdragonite]

I'd personally probably go with neutrals a tad been less intense/saturated so that they don't accentuate parts you don't want standing out. I like starting with just one eye and comparing it to the other to gauge how intense it appears.

[@madelinereith3231]

Soooooo helpful! As always.... I am going to attempt this on my 54 yr old eyes🤔

[@JessicaOrban3606]

This looks great! Definitely see how these little adjustments open up the eye area more. I love how your tutorials feel like I'm getting a thoughtful lesson from a make up artist bestie 💕 Edit: I like that the topper gives dimension

Your communicative mannerisms and facial expressions are so much like Dr. Berg's it's crazy.

[@kaizerdoesthings]

Your contest is the best 😍😍 your explanations and personality are TOP TIER !!!!!!

[@kellbell7518]

Thank you! Finally someone explained how I've been doing my makeup since high school. Didn't have any training in makeup or KZbin 20 years ago. Well we did have youtube but also dialup internet😂 So I taught myself sitting on my bedroom floor as a teenager. My inspo for this look at that time was Andrea Corr!

[@anitajhj]

I can’t and won’t touch my waterline with any product but this was extremely helpful! I was always afraid of smokey eyes. This is truly a useful video, thank you

[@vickies4379]

Must have brushes for any eye look. Go to eye liners…I’m over 50 and have trouble with liquid (please avoid those-too many wrinkles). I generally use eyeshadow for liner, but really like how you did this smoky eye.

[@jmallen5929]

Your videos are great because you give us the WHY that helps the tips to stick

[@danielle7729]

I love that with the dark brown. I’m gonna try this out tomorrow with minimal shine in the center

[@changeeyecolor3891]

You have beautiful eyes.

[@cccsssish]

I have small and very deep set eyes. I honesty didn't expect to learn anything new or gane changing but this is actually genius! Thank you!

[@catm2326]

shimmery inner corner is as timeless as mascara for me

🤎 Beautiful. And yes, Inner corner bright highlight 4 ever! Light or any shimmering colored highlight for me. love ur eyes

You wear that shimmy!!! Love it

Bruhh taking that liner past the outer corner GOT ME, so good. I also dot a little white in the centre of my waterline and blend into the nude, super round effect!

[@afghan1mystery]

I’m literally obsessed. You are so articulate, entertaining and informative. Always learning so much!! Love

[@m.e.5]

Keeping the darkest shades away frm the lash line-clever!

[@mchtaiki]

No intro or bs straight to the point and with on point teaching skills 👍❤️

[@beccatrigger]

obsessed w you

[@elmfao1824]

Style is about *not* following the trends and incorporating new parts you actually like! It's true about clothes, make up, music, and any other expression of art/creativity.

[@tashalawson2028]

Deep set inner corners here and inner corner highlight is a must .. A non negotiable. I've been wearing inner corner highlight since the 7th grade after seeing it on a friend. That was in 2000 lol.

[@AlexandraAnele]

Right?? It makes the biggest difference!

[@xmaseveeve5259]

Thank you! You are very calming.

[@quaqltagh333]

You are gorgeous you do makeup beautifully

I’ve done a shimmery inner corner as long as I’ve been doing makeup- at least since 2003. Always and forever.

[@aubreymaksimenko1625]

So so helpful. Your content has been poppin' !!

[@truesavings1988]

I love your looks! You give excellent instruction!!! 👏👏👏

[@SubKween]

Completely off topic… apps like Calm should hire you for your soothing voice. I’m glad there are people like you who still do in depth tutorials. Because even though I’ve been trying to improve my makeup technique for literally years, I still feel like I’m mostly clueless. 🤦‍♀️

[@fancyalexander6560]

Beautiful eyes so beautiful

[@violetamethyst1186]

Honestly, the eye shadow is so pretty it could be worn without adding mascara. Holy wow! 💜

[@mamacoll]

Good morning. Love your videos and bluntness. Enjoying on Sunday am with coffee while the family sleeps ❤ Love anything hooded eyes related. Tried a technique yesterday an got quite a few compliments 😊

[@DanielleInTheWild]

Amazing as always! It’s crazy that to MY eye, the last bit of shimmer actually made the eye look a little smaller than the non-shimmer eye. Gorgeous, and just so interesting!

[@NFKhan-eu3ff]

I am DEFINITELY going to do this.

[@itsjjallday]

This is gorrrrrrrrgeous and you are a gorgeous lady!

[@cinimodman1]

This was so helpful! My tiny eyes needed some hacks. Thank you so much! I love your content and appreciate you!

[@hollipalmer6079]

I love you! Your the freaking shit! So real & so talented! Stay real & I will keep watching!

[@lillianpark90]

I didn’t know shimmery inner corner was old now 😭 but I feel like that’s the problem with makeup, people only do what’s trending when it’s more helpful to pick up tricks along the way that suits YOUR face and tastes.

[@jillholod34]

I've never dared to smoke out my lower lash line to that extent but I'm going to try it because it looks so gorgeous.

Thanks for being... well... You! I'll keep tuning in knowing that if nothing else I'll just enjoy your videos. You're a fabulous teacher! Sincerely, your student, Dana. :-)

[@hobojoe27]

a challenge for you! ive been scouring the internet for sort of a SOFT grungey look that isnt a copy. most of the time i see plain eyeliner, or smoked liner, or something very basic, like very soft brown and thin liner. i want something that seems original- i LOVE this look. it pretty much is an elevated version of my everyday makeup, meaning i like this casual glam that isnt too glammy, too egirl or too minimalist. i would love to see your take on this !!!!

[@sandilang2874]

Outstanding demonstration. You look beautiful!

[@shannondawson4031]

I just saw your videos for the first time. I love how you demonstrate not just technique, but also possible combinations in colors and complete looks. I have a request: my niece is getting married the second week of December in a formal evening wedding. My dress is floor length black with champagne shimmering sleeves. I have a pale complexion with long curly brown hair (my hair will be down) and hazel eyes. How would you do makeup for that event? I will be in the family photos.
