[@GamingWithMus]

Kassi hahaha I was thinking the same

[@virgovirgo2562]

Kassi me tooo

[@tinaortega621]

Same here ladies 😂😂😂😭😭😭

[@nakhtar1023]

I like how you didn't just go crazy with "don'ts" it absolutely doesn't make sense when so many ppl just go nuts with "don't" and look completely drag instead of pointing out minor things that make a big difference. idk if I'm making any sense but I liked this video.

[@riri_hins]

I envy at how much lid space you have!!!

[@Dlocmack0926]

yes!

[@bruhkent6895]

Ri Hinlo i think its both her eyeshape and the height/shape of her brows

[@laylalovelayla4591]

Really well explained...loved it!😊

[@AmysMakeupBox]

Thank you xxx

[@missnickix]

The Queeeeen of eyeshadow herself! I am so excited to watch this through, your technique is just EXPERT level so it's good to see an actual make up artist show the real myths debunked as opposed to a normal beauty youtuber x

[@missnickix]

what i learnt: to put a powder base down after the neutral cream base, the glitter application AND I AM GOING TO ADMIT IT, i use to always put on wing liner after and it was always glittery and never looked professional! Thank you for these tips. What do you suggest if u get the glitter on the liner?

[@litawi7869]

+Miss Nicki if you get glitter on the liner you can salvage it by wiping the glitter off after each stroke. it will take some time and precision, but it beats starting over, right?!

[@AmysMakeupBox]

Thank you so so much!!! I'm glad you enjoyed my video!

[@rabiyashaikh693]

wowwww

[@apt2lol]

i literally learned so much from this and i watch makeup videos everyday

[@aprilmcginnes2581]

Basically, a bunch of small mistakes can lead to a big ugly mess. Thanks for making this video. I love watching makeup videos but all I see is pretty girls making themselves even prettier and sometimes I just can't figure out what I'm doing differently to end up with such a weird result! Thanks for being helpful.

[@LordofFullmetal]

Same here. Trying to follow a makeup tutorial always ends with me going "why doesn't mine look like hers?"

[@anahitamua7691]

This is the BEST do and don't vid I've seen so far. Thanks!

[@fancydrew1250]

Anahita Ebrahimifard It really is!

[@maestro22121]

This video will change my makeup life. I do all the Donts lol. I needed the help. Thank you

[@AngieDoodle5]

maestro22121 I thought I did a pretty decent attempt at my makeup. Then I saw this video and do almost 90% of all the donts. To say the least, I learned SO MUCH HAHA.

[@OGCmillz]

The best Dos and Donts I've seen tbh. I already see how my eye looks can be elevated

[@rituparikh2255]

My trick for black is place with a pencil brush and blend with a very small, clean, tapered blending brush.

[@AmysMakeupBox]

Ahhhh!!! i'll have to try that out, thank you for your tip beauty! x

[@sophielouiseb1975]

Amys Makeup Box you having your ear phones in has just reminded me that you shouldn't ever sleep with your ear phones in your ears just incase case you end up burning your ears and also don't leave your ear phones plugged into your phone for a really long time just incase your phone gets really hot and end up breaking or something like that

[@serenanicole4301]

Arts and bakes she's wearing them in a video not sleeping in them quit being a nag 🙄 ffs

[@sophielouiseb1975]

serena nicole ok

[@szhayone]

this really helps, I loved how you broke it down 👏

[@LaToyaPrincess]

needed this... thanks so much. I learned a lot watching this video... can't wait go try some of these tips out! 🙌🙌🙌

[@TheeCandaceRose]

Omg this is EXTREMELY helpful!!! I'm a freelance MUA and u covered just about all my eyeshadow concerns and u also listed and named all the brushes and products I love this video 😊

[@asapangie]

That was the best eyeshadow do's and donts video I've ever seen 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@simplysarah.a]

Amy, I have to thank you for this video. I've been trying to learn how to do eyeshadow properly for some time. You're the first to actually explain it to a tee, especially when you mentioned the brushes to use. I tried out your tips for a wedding this weekend and got so much compliments. Thanks again!

[@elenabaker]

OMG! The way you hold a mirror it's just brilliant! I had the issue you talk about in the don't but never occurred to me it was because of where the mirror is placed. Thank you so much! I've whatched hundreds or makeup tutorials and have never come across such tip! Thank you thank you thank you!

[@dedeandtouss2928]

Thank you.. I'm so glad I've found this video.. so helpful... I struggle with eye shadow.. this is so helpful thanks again..

[@AnointedRain]

Loved this tutorial!!! Other people film dos and Donts that's don't really help me but this did! Loved it! And you covered about 4 different eye looks in one

[@trinakaerenfroe6749]

Thank you so much for this! I've learned so much from this tutorial. One of my top 5 favorites!

[@pamelasmith4485]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. Have not seen one that explains why you use certain brushes and what they are for. AND what you recommend not to do!! Thank you so much. I will come back to this video often!

[@ecece2515]

One of the best videos I've ever seen

[@ashleylopez6112]

Omg u are awesome. I loved how u broke things done and explain why u do things and what kinda brushes to use

[@kimberlysbeautychannel1335]

GORGEOUS!!! My favorite eye shadow you tuber! (If that makes sense lol)

[@AmysMakeupBox]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

[@sharmeenferdous9882]

Hey Amy it will be wonderful if you made a video where you show your eyeshadow collection, and the brushes you use. Thanks!

[@justeorlovaite5969]

Finally someone mentioned the fact that you can start eyeliner too soon on your eyelid! Not that you can't if that's what you like doing, but when i started doing eyeliner i had no idea why it looked strange and unflattering on me

[@mjmoe4865]

Truly informative video. Thank you, Amy! You're absolutely talented and gorgeous!

[@Mrs_T.A]

best eye shadow tutorial ever. good job

[@949ripcurl]

Hi Amy, I love these kind of videos because I am at the very beginning of my makeup journey and I find most MUA's put up videos using very advanced technique's and the better they get and the longer they are at it the more likely it is that they will not do simple looks for beginners such as myself. So thank you for providing a space where I can learn I love your work.

[@tygermcpherson9418]

Just discovered your channel, you are absolutely stunning and so friggin talented. Love all your tutorials!!!!

[@cathharr08]

I love this...thank you very much for another super tutorial. I love the tip about tipping the head back slightly and then looking down with the eye. It does help so very much. Huge difference.

[@dytees]

Fascinating! Thank you so much for this video.

[@vasiak.2758]

really helpful!it is amazing that nothing is messy under your eyes from the eyeshadows!it happens to me all the time 😂

[@princesswhatever999]

Best 'do or dont' video ive ever seen, i learnt so much! Subscribed! X

[@beckid893]

I've recently come across your channel and I love watching your eyeshadow tutorials! your probably the best I have come across

[@emmajlatham]

FINALLY! So glad I found this. So badly need eyeshadow tutorials!! Thank you 😍

[@dayha]

Thank you for this!!! I finally did my makeup without any mess ups today! Great advice with the "looking down into the mirror", thank you again!

[@erickacastillo4079]

Finally ! Someone that teaches us the technique :) thanks !

[@kirstensargent6435]

really helpful! I used to do undereye with a tiny brush but recently changed to a smudge brush which you use in your don't! I think I'm a bit scared of looking panda eyed going in with such a big brush under the eye, but I will give it a go!

[@GarciaJo]

I find this video extremely helpful! it really makes a world of a difference, so glad it was on my recommendations ❤

[@shonab4006]

Honestly Amy, this video has made my life! Thank you. So so helpful. X

[@stefiheem]

This is a great tutorial!!! Thank you for explaining the brush uses too!! So helpful You explain very well

[@syahiraizzati9010]

BOOOMM!! Packed with all information needed for fix our eye makeup

[@EmberDawn3]

This was so very helpful! Thank you! You should make more of these for eyebrows, foundation, etc.

[@cvb0607]

great info!! off work for a week so guess what I will be doing? Practice practice practice!!

[@TanyaCheban]

This is soooo good!!!

[@Blackcat95]

Thank you, my eyeshadow never comes out good lol... but then I after I watch this video I realized I was using the wrong brushes. Usually I just take 2 bright colors and try to blend them half into each other... But that DO eye is exactly what I want! I will practice!

[@kimberlybertrand2733]

This video is so helpful, thank You! You create the most gorgeous looks!

[@emilyquirk5690]

This was honestly the most helpful dos and donts video I've watched on youtube, thank you so much xx

[@jlmagick1763]

I generally like to use a pencil brush for dark or black colors. Works for my lids

[@shewhosucceeds]

Best Do's & Dont's video I've watched!!

[@sfidler5101]

Thank you so much for your tips! I love ALL your eye looks, and it really helps to know in detail what to do to accomplish perfection! PS not sure where i first heard to use a pencil brush for applying black shadow on corner. I have never added black to outer edge because I was too afraid of the results. Now that I have a better understanding of which brush to use and where, I feel more confident in trying!! Xoxo

[@summechic55]

Thank you for actually explaining! Loved the look

[@taylorwatts100]

Great explanation of all your steps! Helped a ton!

[@AlyssaTaylor9]

All these are definitely really good points, good video :) The only change I would make is in what you did with your waterline. While i tightline with the same color i used for my liner (black or brown mostly), I will always waterline with a very light (slighty lighter than my own skintone) eyeliner. I use the Maybelline Waterproof Gel liner pencil in nude. You can use white as well, but i feel the light nude looks more natural. I find this makes the eye look much bigger than going in with more dark shades.

[@princessssamm]

That glitter trick tho!!! (+ I apply super darks with a pencil brush, then either blend with that brush or a clean version of the same pencil brush, anything bigger and I get dark shadow all over!) love these tips!

[@kaliya02]

Wow you do an excellent job blending and teaching how to do it right,thanks so much for this video. I just want to ask you if you know a dupe for the Fraulein 38 because I tried to buy that brush on Amazon but it comes in a set of 32 brushes. The one that I use is the outer v from Make up Geek. I hope you answer me.

[@paolacaliman2338]

I can't tell you how many years I waited for a video like this. And you explain every detail perfectly. Thank you soo much!! I realized that I do a lot of "don't" 😂. I can't wait to see another video like this one.

[@cookiemonster2482]

Really helpful video and you are by far my favourite makeup guru on youtube! Would it be possible for you to a dos and donts series? I've got a small face with sharp cheekbones and I find it hard to contour and it would be great if you could please do a video on tips to soften sharp features x

[@janagandhi4441]

Even your "don't" side looks amazing!

[@amandaross3928]

I am so glad you made this video!!! I am definitely guilty of a couple of these don'ts, and I loved the lit cosmetics glue and glitter tip!!! That one definitely changed my life!!! 😄

[@flanmaryj]

You just mimicked most of my high school students and the drunk ladies at the clubs!! I really learned something about looking into the mirror the right way because my eyes are hooded. I almost always use my medicine cabinet mirror.

[@krystalfrisk4]

great tips, always looking to step up my shadow game xx

[@samihakhan5663]

instead of glue can I use cream shadow as a base?

[@raphaellakandefer6214]

Absolutely loved this video!! You explained step by step and made it SO easy!! Thank you very much ❤️

[@mariak3084]

Did you use the toofaced shadow insurance primer or glitter glue? Because the one you showed is an eyeshadow primer and there is a glitter glue from too faced too.

[@mariebechara435]

OMG! i learned more in this video than in like 5 other videos. Cant wait to keep watching :)

[@ainslee9875]

this video is sooo helpful especially since I'm starting to experiment more with eyeshadows. I actually found myself going "aaahhh" through the majority of the video since I do a lot of the don'ts in here lol. Thanks so much for sharing your tips! Very useful

[@rmejia413]

Hello Amy very nicely done,I checked the description box looking for the glue you used for the glitter liner ,that is not the too faced one ,those are not listed thanks in advance!!

[@yanethmaldonado9151]

Lit Adhesive Glue

[@rmejia413]

+Yaneth Maldonado thanks a lot

[@helenc32]

This is SO helpful, Amy... definitely the best do's and don'ts for eyeshadow I've seen :) Thank you!

[@alexandralanier]

absolutely adore all your videos and your snapchats are HILARIOUS! Also thank you for keeping in contact with everyone and always answering their questions! super amazing!

[@bk2611-gjm]

Learned so much!! Thank you for this video!! I tried a couple of these tips and it helped my eyeshadow look so flawless.

[@keetz9437]

This has helped me so much! All the expensive palettes Iv bought and thought I new it all I was doing it wrong the whole time and probably looked silly 🙈 Thank you so much I know what I need to buy now xxx

[@LauraSommerville1]

Amazing tutorial! One of my favourite videos from you! You are definitely so talented with eyeshadow looks! xx

[@boricua8035]

Hmmmm, do you use the glitter glue with shimmer shadows too? Every time I use a shimmer shadow I end up with transfer to my upper eye lid. How do I fix this? I've noticed that when I pat for a longer time I have less transfer but it still transfers

[@jessicamancienne8271]

I really liked how you focused on common, realistic mistakes as opposed to really dramatic mistakes that most people don't even make cause they're not stupid.

[@annabellaella8786]

thank you sooo much! I have learn so much from your one video, I can't believe how many don'ts I was doing.

[@Loveniaxo]

Omg I had to subscribe. You showed me exactly everything I was getting wrong!! Thank you. You saved my life!

[@kayharris9128]

Yeahhhh you are the queen of eyeshadow. I hope to get as good as you or close to it. Thanks, really enjoyed the tips and this video.

[@ThatGingerHannah]

there are some don'ts that I do and I am so happy you did this video because when I would do my lower lashes eyeshadow it would look terrible. thank you so much

[@hannahparsons1804]

Amy did you use a microphone along with the cannon 600D ??... thanks

[@AmysMakeupBox]

Hannah Parsons I use my Mac's microphone to do voice overs xxx

[@hannahparsons1804]

Amazing. Thank you! I was thinking that but my Mac mic seems to be shite at all times hahaha!! Xxxx

[@AmysMakeupBox]

Hannah Parsons I have the gain right down?! So it won't pick up the noise around me.. Not sure if that will help, I also go quite close to it xx

[@hannahparsons1804]

Okay thanks Hun! Looking to start a new channel and do videos so thank you so much! My boyfriend just got a new mic for redcording his music so I might just try to steal that! Thank you x

[@GlitterOnMyBody92]

beautiful result! Great tricks thank you

[@JennaNicole_15]

So...I know I'm super late but I followed the "Do's" of this video and my eye makeup was so bomb!!! I definitely was doing alot of the "Don'ts" prior to this video and I realized that I have alot of shimmer eye shadows and I need to invest in more mattes. Thank you!!

[@nolagirl7082]

Amy I really love your videos, I just wanted you to know that. Lately I've heard you mention that you were wanting to switch up things because your subscribers are complaining about you doing the same looks over and over. Well I love the looks you do and I could watch a thousand of them and never get bored. Your such a pro at doing your eyes! I learn alot from you. Keep doing you girl!

[@jenniferkopenga4383]

What a FANTASTIC video you say you're not that good at eyeshadow but let ME just say you apply makeup like a BOSS all your colors flow right your placement is on point and you are the blending QUEEN! I love your videos I actually can't click on em fast ENOUGH!! Way to go girl you nailed it YET again!!! Bravo 👏🏻

[@jennifermclaughlin9726]

Love love LOVE this tutorial.. Thank you Amy 😍🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@delaneykearns773]

I have a few questions... 1: can't the glitter get in your eye? 2: by using glue, does it become harder to wash your face afterwards? 3: Over the course of the day, when you get that goop in the corners of your eyes, how do you clean it without messing up all the surrounding makeup?

[@serenanicole4301]

Delaney Kearns any makeup can get in your eye..it's called being careful?

[@aariallittlecoyote3495]

serena nicole or how about not putting dangerous shit on your eyes?

[@delaneykearns773]

Although that doesn't answer any of my questions, I suppose that's true, but glitter is larger than regular eyeshadow, and doesn't stick onto the eyelids the same way... so yes, being careful is important. But it's still risky for those without experience.

[@aariallittlecoyote3495]

Delaney Kearns well why'd you ask when you just answered your own question

[@delaneykearns773]

Oops, I meant to tag serena nicole in my comment above. And I didn't answer my own question. My question was "can't the glitter get in your eye?" and I wanted to know how to avoid that. What I said above was that I don't have any experience with glitter, and I know it requires different application from eyeshadow, so I was looking for some pointers on how to safely apply it. That's not answering my own question, it's essentially restating it.

[@VictoriaFaith]

So talented Amy, thanks for sharing your tips x

[@safiyaattarwala1056]

Big thanks to you girl. Nobody shares so much of details but u did . Love ur videos and makeup ❤️❤️❤️

[@daisyy8281]

[@susieloveless9991]

thank you so much for your advice. i am still in the learning process of makeup. which would be a good crease brush that you would recommend?

[@blabla6487]

Definitely subscribed!:) I can say this is the best video I have watched so far on tips for dos and don'ts. Thanks for the help lady!! Great job.

[@jadelena2660]

[@megrockstar]

[@kamalpreetsinghania7938]

This was SOOOO heloful, and even though I pride myself in doing a great eye makeup look, I did find a couple of techniques I was doing wrong. Thank you!!

[@Rebecca-bp2kk]

This has changed everything for me! Thank you so much ❤

[@madelinetexas795]

Lol from a fast blink & a distance you really can't tell but from a stare to a close up really huge beautiful difference 👍 so I learned always use a primer & powder & definitely worth spending for brushes for that blending 👌🏻

[@serenityprincess6546]

Soooo helpful thanks a lot ! You're the best. Loooooove your eyeshadow looks always gorgeous

[@celinesoosai]
