James Charles Palette - Beginner Eyeshadow Tutorial

[@javierav8930]

I just want to say thank you thank you thank you! I bought this palette a while ago thinking I would do my makeup but I get intimidated by all the looks on the internet and always wished for a tutorial of something simple and classy and you have done that so thank you!

[@mackenzhughes]

I’m so happy to hear that!! I know it’s not the most exciting but it’s a great go-to look for everyday or even a formal event!

[@jaxonispeng5612]

I love how much time you take carefully explaining each step!! It makes it really easy for beginners like myself to learn eyeshadow when tutorials aren't all that common Recently. Thanks so much 💛💛

[@mackenzhughes]

You're welcome! I hope it helps!! 😊❤

[@mackenzhughes]

Awww thank you!! I really appreciate it 😊❤

[@krystalberas3915]

Can you please make an eye look with the yellow and the 3 greens next to it. I would LOVE to see a look with those colors!! Especially because you are so detailed and you take your time, I really appreciate that. Thanks!!

[@mackenzhughes]

Thanks for the request! That's a great idea!

[@krystalberas3915]

kenziemacbrown you’re so welcome! Awww thank you for thinking so! and thank you so much for responding back.

[@krystalberas3915]

kenziemacbrown really hope you’re still considering doing a look with the “Bee” shade and the 3 greens surrounding it.

[@krystalberas3915]

@@mackenzhughes can you do a green yellow look with the yellow color “Bee” and the other 3 greens surrounding it? I would LOVE for you to do a look with those colors!!! Please!!!

[@미히예쁜]

Me with hooded eyes finally deciding it’s time to overcome the challenge of doing eyeliner , excited to use this palette! Thank you so much

[@sehrishkamran994]

The best tutorial ever!! So well explained, this was my first time doing a smokey eye and second time doing my eyeshadow, you guided me so well that it looked bomb, 80% like yours 🤯

[@sydneyadams2506]

I've always wanted to do a look like this but was too intimidated. Finally gonna try it. Thank you!

[@mackenzhughes]

I'm glad you're going to try it! Honestly worst case, you just wipe it off! There's been so many makeup looks I've tried that haven't worked out, but practice helps!

[@sydneyadams2506]

@@mackenzhughes I tried it and I really liked it. Didnt use as many colors as you did but that's because of my eye shape and I didn't want it to be too dark for work. Since watching your video I've taken more time to blend my colors more and its given me a confidence boost in my technique. Thank you!

[@elizabethwallace9079]

This is almost the exact look I did for my “princess look” when I was in Rogers and Hammerstein’s cinderella :) So simple and beautiful!! I love how much detail you went into while explaining too👏

[@mackenzhughes]

Thank you! It’s not the most exciting look but it’s definitely a go-to of mine for an every day look or even something formal!

[@krystalberas3915]

kenziemacbrown yes I love how much detail you put into it and how you explain everything.

[@cupcakequeen229]

I finished watching all your Disney vlogs so now I’m on to makeup tutorials!! I’m a beginner so these videos have really helped and I’m starting to get the hang of it! Sending lots of love 💗 congrats on getting married!!

[@mackenzhughes]

Sorry I just saw this! Thank you so much! I'm so happy to hear that you're enjoying the makeup videos too!

[@brittneymorris2093]

You did amazing!!!!!! I love your energy!! 😘

[@mackenzhughes]

Thanks Brittney!! 😊❤

[@leoneybrayshaw5847]

Your eyes are a similar colour to mine but I’m a redhead and my eyebrows are a dark blonde/brown. I love this look and I definitely want to try it. The colours suit you and you explained perfectly. Thank you 🙂

[@elena_mckenzie]

[@lyndseycarr1320]

I love this tutorial!! It didnt come out as perfect as yours but mine came out really good!! Im happy with it!! Thank you so much!!! I love how you do the step by step explaining.

[@krystalberas3915]

I love how you are able to do a whole look with just one or two brushes and like let us know that we don’t have to use all the brushes if we don’t have them or that we don’t have to use all the brushes if we do have them, that we can use 1 or two brushes and the look will still come out good. So thanks for that.

[@mackenzhughes]

You're welcome! I remember what it was like starting out and not having dozens of brushes, or primers, or the nicest lashes, etc. But I still think you can create a beautiful eyeshadow look even when you don't have a ton of tools!

[@krystalberas3915]

kenziemacbrown yup, and the fact that you can show us that that’s true, it’s really awesome.

[@courtneymazza9550]

Keep your head up. You're doing great.

[@mackenzhughes]

Thank you! 😊💕

[@kimberlysanchez1144]

love these! just watched ur video from 2019 over a beginner eyeshadow tutorial. Ive had the palette for a while now but am scared to play with it bc im not the best at eyeshadow, so im glad i found ur videos to try out neutral looks!

[@mackenzhughes]

Sorry I just saw this comment, but thank you so much! I was the same way when I was starting out, it's a lot easier to start with a few colors (maybe 2-3), you can still create lots of eyeshadow looks, even just by using a few colors!

[@nicoleburkett9186]

Did this tutorial for a night out on Saturday and everyone said it looked so good! thank you :)

[@mackenzhughes]

Awww yay! I'm so happy to hear that!

Wow incredible tutorial! Very well put together and explained. Just subscribed to your channel, can’t wait to see more of your videos!!

[@mackenzhughes]

Awww thank you so much Isabel! I really appreciate it! 😊💕

[@Penelope1958]

This was a wonderful video. Now I will be able to practice with a purpose instead of just doing things blindly. I am going to watch this again and keep trying until it becomes easy. I haven't really concentrated much on doing my makeup well. So now is as good a time as I can think of to spend my time in a more creative way. Also I think using makeup may make me feel better and self care is very important right now along with caring for whoever we can in whatever way we can.

[@mackenzhughes]

That's what I've done with other tutorials, and what I did when I was first starting out! Practice really makes perfect, and I still feel like I have a lot I can improve on 😊

[@bigalsadventures3560]

[@laurenm7929]

I’d love a video explaining makeup in a SUPER simple, basic way for beginners. Like explaining the different parts of makeup and what each part does. I honestly still don’t know what highlighter even does lol

[@mackenzhughes]

Thanks for the suggestion! I think sometimes I forget that not everyone has the same knowledge I do, and it's a helpful reminder!

Thank you so much this has helped SO much you are a life saver !!xx

[@estherdeakin8562]

Thank you so much for your videos and going slow through them. I found very few that do that. Since you seem really knowledgeable on makeup I have a question. My eyes get really dry even without makeup around my eyes, I do have eye drops but I am scared to use eye drops when I've put eye makeup on because I don't want it to come off. What would you suggest?

[@mackenzhughes]

I’m glad you like my videos! ☺️ if there’s a way where you can put the eye drops in preemptively that might be easier than putting them in once your makeup is done! If you’re not wearing mascara it shouldn’t be a problem, but once mascara gets wet it typically will smear.

[@elizabethv9787]

Great job!

[@madi9559]

Have you ever considered doing a video on tips for maintaining long distance relationships? I know you and Joel did that while you were in Orlando and me and I’m sure many others are facing that now with college and quarantine! ❤️

[@mackenzhughes]

That’s a good idea! It’s been about four years since we did that so I don’t know how accurately I can recall our experience 😂 but it was definitely challenging! I also had a long distance relationship my first year of college that didn’t work out well at all (he cheated on me twice), but I think overall both people have to be fully committed to the relationship, even though it gets really hard.

[@squishymochi3615]

I hope you staying safe and healthy! All the love from Australia!🥰❤

[@mackenzhughes]

Thank you!! You too! 💗

[@elysamonserrate3203]

Hi, I just discovered your channel, and I have to say this was the absolute best eye shadow tutorial ever, thank you. I liked how you pointed out the subtle differences between the two eyes and how taking your time can make it look more “professional”. The final look is so beautiful! Can you tell me which lashes did you use?

[@jackiewalsh9652]

You and I have a very similar eye color so I’m finding your videos very helpful to me

[@mackenzhughes]

I'm happy to hear that!

[@petrastinissen918]

Nice look ♥️♥️

[@mackenzhughes]

Thanks!

[@petrastinissen918]

You welkom

[@Tiffs-bookshelf]

I really struggle with that portion of my eye in the crease. Shadows are stubborn because of my hooded eyes, I’m going to try some of these ideas so I can get a smother look. But I do not have as many issues with the James Charles palette but the naked ones

[@mackenzhughes]

I have a hard time with some of the Urban Decay Naked palettes too! I feel like it depends a lot on the formula of the shadows!

[@Tiffs-bookshelf]

kenziemacbrown yes. I just used the naked heat for the first time and it was amazing!!! Super easy to use as is the naked 3.

[@saydizzliee4148]

Wish I had your eyes!!

[@Strongwidow5585]

This look is very easy and simple to do, but I do have a question about it! Would this makeup look be appropriate for a funeral because my husband just passed away this past Wednesday night and even though I love makeup so much, I need to learn to tone it down and keep it respectful for his family at his memorial service so that they don’t go and think that I’m a crazy and careless widow!

[@mackenzhughes]

First of all I'm so sorry to hear that! If anything, you could maybe not use the shade Benny, and follow the tutorial up until that part (so up until about 12:30). I personally think it would be fine, but up to you if you feel comfortable wearing eyeshadow that dark - that might be the only thing I would change, but I don't know how much makeup you usually wear or feel comfortable wearing. I'm so sorry you have to go through that right now!

[@Strongwidow5585]

I was just thinking the same thing, the shades Benny and spooky would be too dark, so I would probably just stick with the three shades canvas, punch me and tea and I know for sure I’m gonna have to go light handed on the face makeup, such as foundation, concealer, bronzer etc., but thank you, I’m taking his passing really hard just like his family and kids are!

[@belasmakeupartistry6190]

Thx for that

[@AbdulRahman-gx5yo]

I wanna say something plz explain me what is the brands?

[@MichelleRoni]

I wish all her videos were tutorials for beginners using the James Charles palette cus I’m a beginner and that’s the only palette I have haha.

[@mackenzhughes]

I have about 2 or 3 videos using this palette that I would say are beginner friendly! I'm glad you like my videos!

[@belasmakeupartistry6190]

Omg love your natural eyeshadow and thx for liking my comment if you have any websites in Australia that I could get blood lust by jeffree

[@MariaReyes-ho4bb]

Do you wear colored contacts if so... what brand are they? 🌹 very beautiful look 💞 u have very very nice eyes ✨

[@mackenzhughes]

You are so sweet, thank you! I don't wear colored contacts, but my regular contacts do have the slightest blue tint, so if you see a line right outside my iris that's what that is 😊
