I think one thing that makes it really difficult is that when trying to find techniques and looks that are flattering for eye shapes that don't fit the trends, is that when searching for "hooded eyes", or "downturned eyes", or "deep set eyes", etc, there are VASTLY more videos on camouflaging/hiding/fixing these issues instead of celebrating/enhancing/highlighting them.

I have a droopy and hooded eye shape and seeing this video made me happy because I tell people this all the time! For anyone that struggles with eyeshadow on hooded eyes, I say don't be afraid to get heavy underneath your eye! A shimmer/glitter on the inner part and a dark lower lash line is my go-to. Sometimes I even put shimmer all over my eyebags to draw attention to them but that's not for everyone because it is quite dramatic haha

[@defectiveshark7602]

As a very olive-skinned EAsian person with monolid eyes - NO visible crease when my eyes are open - and an epicanthal fold - man I wish I'd seen this early on when I was getting into makeup. It's so hard not to get discouraged when nothing you see seems to work for you. I live in the US and my adoptive family is all white, so trying to figure out what I'm doing at any given time has taken a *while*. This look is gorgeous, btw, it reminds me of moth wings and it highlighted the colors in your eyes in the coolest way

[@Call-me-Al]

A really fun thing to do when you have a huge chunk of invisible space when your eyes are wide open, is to have some bright and fun color in the hidden space. That way every time you blink it gives a really cool color flash. There was some monolid redditor/instagrammer I learned this "trick" from. I don't have a monolid, just a lot of disappearing space, and seeing that was the first time I ever finally got to see the hidden space as an opportunity instead of a waste

[@foxwaffles]

Hey hey, monolids here and omg I feel your struggle. I never wore makeup all through my teen years because there were NO resources. Google the "vertical gradient" for monolids. It was totally game changing for me. I've been using variations on vertical gradients ever since. Attempting to put a darker shadow through where our "crease" aka orbital bone is just looks so bad 90% of the time.

[@ruelongcha]

even in asian beauty especially during the early days of youtube there was little if any monolid representation (funny as I’m typing this, apple doesn’t even recognize monolid as a word). thankfully there are now dozens of video tutorials for monolid eyes. I’ve also seen some beautiful high fashion style makeup with bold stenciling around your eye shape. it works really well because with no crease it’s almost like a “blank canvas” effect that you can get away with drawing the most creative shapes on. I’ve never actually seen the style done in person (I have hooded eyes so it wouldn’t really work on me) but I think it would look so cool

[@jtidema]

This is SOOOOO important. I would love to see someone do the same makeup look on different people and show this concept...

[@marikanespoli6525]

Oh my gosh, same here. Especially now that I am nearly 40. I feel so discouraged 😞

[@LMDinNC]

I have the same issue and have learned a few techniques. Alex mentioned this - you need to follow along with your eye socket to create your “crease.”. You can feel this bone if you lightly press above your eye. This is where you apply your “crease” color. It will create depth in that area. Putting a light bright color in the middle of your lid (above your Iris) also helps. I usually use gold with warm shadows or silver with cool shadows. Using no shadow or liner at all under the eyes may sound counterintuitive but this also makes a big difference in making hooded eyes look less “sleepy.” I don’t even wear mascara on my lower lashes anymore.

Yess, I felt the pixie hairstyle choice. I used to swear I'd never cut my hair that short bc I thought it'd look awful. But then the pandemic hit and I was like "if there's a time to do it, it's now" so I chopped off my hair and I haven't looked back since. Of course I still see people with longer hair and it looks so good on them but I know my hair could never be like that naturally and I have to accept that. I am, however, much happier with my pixie since it looks better with my face shape (plus it's way easier to manage)

[@therealemceekay]

Same here. I've had every flavour and length of short hair for years. Grew it out once or twice but can never get past my shoulders. I have a lot of hair but it's very fine and very straight and tangles like a mofo. Now I have an undercut with an asymmetrical top and it just works for me. So easy, suits me, literally wash and wear. All the power to women with long, luscious locks but that ain't me!

As someone with droopy sad puppy eyes, thank you for the positivity lol! When I first started getting into makeup I found it so frustrating to try to follow the “standard” tutorials for like a cat eye because my eyes are simply Not Built Like That, so it took me just practicing and experimenting on my own to figure out what worked. And also, sometimes embracing the weirder parts of your face with makeup can be really fun! I’ve got close set eyes, and I used to do everything to lighten up my inner corners to make them seems further apart, but recently I’ve been darkening my inner corners and it’s been great! Like, yes, I am built like a flounder, but fuck it, why can’t I put a dark shimmer on my inner corner!

[@brooke9297]

@@eyeclipper Hah, it's such a rare face shape, of course I'll share (and be super extra in my description) in the hopes that it might be helpful :) So I've struggled a lot over the years and have landed on: minimal overall foundation to at least make sure that the parts I don't conceal don't stand out as having a different texture. Then the best thing I can do around my eyes is to really not over-conceal the eyelids and area below my brows. I have to make sure the shadows are still visible, because if I don't, it flattens my face and makes it longer and incredibly weird.. I'll typically do a light coverage foundation there (dabbed first on my hand with a sponge) and then, if anything, a thin liner towards the outer corners straight out toward the temple, not upward. I realize that's hard to explain in words, but I find that with my face shape, lines moving horizontally are the most flattering. The upward cat eye look tends to look absolutely insane hah.. Then maybe a bit of a highlight shade on the inner-center lid (not in that part at the very inner corner of the eye.... that looks horrendous hah) and I'm all set! Oh and any added lashes look great towards the outer corner. Whole sets don't usually look good, so I do the individual sets. Hope that helps! :)

[@eyeclipper]

@@brooke9297 Yes, thank you so much! I actually dont do outer lashes only (as if i did lashes at all most of the time but lets ignore that hahah) bc i feel like it weighs the last past only, even if i liked the look on other people 😭. I am curious, what do you think of the 'douyin' style makeup, where they make the liner kinda enhance the downwardness of the eyes? I tried it recently and it made had the opposite effect of the foxy eye, and it put more focus on the outer parts of my face (mostly cheekbones) and in a way makes it look less long?? + the make up isnt really on the eyelids so it doesnt create weird lines. But at the same time you have to really embrace the eye shape 😬

[@EmmieHunny]

When you started talking about “droopy” eyes I almost started crying because I felt seen. My mom has very deep hoods and her outside corners are downturned and she passed the same eye shape to me. In fact, our hoods embrace the droop and fold completely past the outer corner. It took me finding Wayne Goss’s channel before I ever had any clue how to make my eyeshadow look “good” on me. It took me even longer to get over my insecurities about my sunken, blue lower lids and realize I could use them to my advantage too. Now I get compliments all the time and do my mom’s eyes for her on special occasions so she too can see the magic and power in what others consider an “unfortunate” eye shape. And I’m grateful for you helping spread the message of love and beauty and acceptance for all shapes and types.

I have large round eyes, but a very small distance between my eye and brow-bone which is not that defined, so they look a bit hooded from front even though they actually arent, and I have had them called sleepy eyes all my life. So I feel really validated and flattered that anyone finds eyes like mine attractive. Everyone always says they want bigger eyes until even daily eyeshadow looks too dramatic! But I like it, I just wish there were more techniques out there for my eyeshape that weren't always corrective in nature. Trying trends is fun, because the main person I learned from how to make makeup that I like, was in the end, myself. I love your eye look here, it's stunning ❤️

[@blyssedbe]

This hit on so many fantastic points. I have hooded and deep-set eyes where my crease curves all the way down to the outer corners of my eyes. There are hacks to get lifted liner on my eyes from a front view, but with my eye socket structure, it looks SILLY from any other angle! I found a KZbin makeup artist with similar eye structure who focuses on flattering looks for hooded eyes, even if they aren’t currently trending. She inspired me to ignore the “lift” trend and bring my liner downward on the outer edges more even though other gurus say “it drags your eyes down and makes them look saggy. It’s WRONG.” It makes mine look LOVELY, thanks! What a great message. Do what works for you. Trends help us learn new techniques and consider different looks, but we should just borrow what we like and leave the rest behind without fear of not being “trendy” enough. This is why I despise videos that say “Makeup mistakes!” or “Right vs. wrong.” They pressure us to all do the same thing when we should be free to do whatever we please!

Great video and advice. I, in middle age, was struggling to get all the looks of the day I was seeing KZbinrs create that just were not working for my hooded lids. THEN I reconnected with a young and old Katherine Hepburn, who was absolutely stunning AND had hooded eyes. Gorgeous hooded eyes. Here eyes were accentuated with lashes and maybe some liner. On occasion she had shadow but it wasn't to change her eyes or to hide the hoodedness of them. What she did do was play with complexion, brows, and lips to look fresher or more dramatic. Sure, I feel like I miss out on wearing a gorgeous cut crease or halo eye. Yea, I do. And then I remember that eyes are not the only feature of the face that can stand out or with which we can be creative.

i don't have much lid space, my brows are really low, so i put a lot of shadow underneath my eyes and wing it to the side a lot, because i have loads of cheek space and a lot of space where my eye ends to the edge of my face, so it works really well for me, thank you for validating me i thought i was just doing something wrong, that that was the only thing that suited me!!!

Hahaha you have my attention throughout this video, but when you called out for Putin I lost it 🤣 🤣 🤣 omg Awww thanks so much Alex! This WAS refreshing watching you just play and talk! I’ll definitely be bolder with my lower lash line! You hit the nail on the head when you said not to be scared to drag it downwards, I’m half Korean so I’ve always grew up with this idea of makeup being lifted and light and sweet and going dark is dark waters! But I love boldness and color! The majority of my hang up about putting on makeup on myself is I don’t really know who I look like and I think I’ve done a lot of that “look at others and copy” that I’m not familiar with my own features as much but I think life is bringing us back to ourselves now and it’s an awesome and best time to experiment with that stuff! That’s again for a cool post :) take care Alex!

Yesss! Understanding your unique bone structure, real estate, what’s reasonable, and what you’re working to achieve are instrumental in understanding what techniques will flatter you most. There are techniques that’ll enhance every eye shape, so play! As for the hoodies who are looking to do cut creases, bring that contour a few millimeters above your natural socket (where your eyeball meets your brow bone, not where your hood creases). This’ll help make the look more believable as well as guide your other eye looks! Every eye shape is beautiful and able to be enhanced through different techniques. While not all work for everyone, there are plenty that will!

I love this video. My intro includes me stressing the importance of embracing natural features, not changing them. Wear what we want to and rock it with confidence, regardless of what the 'beauty community' may say. Not reaching for perfection, but instead acknowledging our natural features are what makes us perfect. It was refreshing hearing your message in this video. I wish more people gave this message.

38 yrs young and I’m finally getting excited again about makeup. Thank goodness for this channel, I need some retraining 🪞🥰🌻

🙏🏽Ty. Having round eyes scares me away from makeup…this is very helpful. I love your channel

[@mckennamontcalm]

Not me trying for years to do my eye makeup just like JH and felt bad about myself that it never looked good… until I started doing my eyes following my own shape. Game changer!

[@AmeliaAdNauseam]

I just absolutely adore you, your knowledge, attitude, delivery, and how you make me feel about myself. Thank you for being lush 💗

[@ashleykane2895]

I loved the look a bit lighter right after you added the green, then you added more and I didn’t like it, and then all the sudden with the finishing touches I LOVED it again haha. all about the process. so agree with your thoughts too

[@Doudou25870]

What you said about trends is so true cause I tried batwing eyeliner and it changed the game for me and my hooded lids! I was doing my eyeliner so wrongly for my eyeshape and this technique literally opened my eyes (pun intended). I'm addicted to it now and I get a lot of compliments for it.

[@Liiibrasun]

I feel like you & I have similar eyes! I have deep set big eyes as well
