Smokey Eyes...FOR HOODED & ALMOND EYES || Walk-Through Makeup Tutorial - ReeRee Phillips

[@DominosAndHearts]

Omg finally someone with the same eyes as me, doing a smoky look! I always feel I can't pull off smoky eyes, because of my hooded, almond eyes, one of my eyes is almond but is more hooded, its hard to explain

[@octavia88]

Same here! I always resorted to mild smokey with lots of dark browns as they are easier to do...

[@maddi3787]

I even have the same eye that's more hooded 😂

[@TheUnholyMistress]

I have the same eyes! One looks bigger than the other. Thank you so much for this video!!!!!

[@icerosefeathers3822]

Yes my eyes are different on the other side too!

[@monikahoff1980]

As someone with oily, hooded eyes, I appreciated the heck out of this video. Especially because I didn't think I could wear a smokey eye. Thanks, ReeRee!

[@MissLizzy882]

Sadly, my eyes are SO deep set and my brow is SO heavy I can't create a new crease without it looking seriously strange! Your eye makeup is always stunning and I definitely wouldn't say your eyes are small!

[@reereephillipsbeauty]

With deep set and hooded, I just commented some advice for someone else with the same eye shape. Again, I bet your eyes are gorgeous!

[@sierrajade4587]

Small eyes?? You look like a doll! I've always thought you had big eyes

[@jazwhoaskedforthis]

Sierra Jade maybe she meant small lid space? I think she’s got the prettiest eyes I’ve ever seen yeah, I never thought of them as small

[@thehilaryglow]

Her eyes are small but beautiful! I love her look

[@miriamcastillo4035]

1. Good lord your voice is so soothing 2. Brilliant tips! Thank you lovely lady 🥰 You gots yourself a new subscriber!

[@romiaxel9306]

I'm like five years late to this but I love and appreciate this video so muchh!! It's so thorough, clearly communicated and not confusing(which many make-up tutorials tend to do). This was truly helpful and made me feel like I know what to do and what I am doing. Thanks so much!!!!! ❤🖤

[@hannahhallee5409]

My right eye is more hooded than my left too! Loved this tutorial you're so beautiful ❤

[@-zn6du]

your like a mystical eastern princess in appearance and mannerism 😍

[@melanieevenson2342]

Definitely helpful. Thank you for being such an informative, amazing and one of a kind lady in the KZbin community. I'm obsessed with the quality and content of your videos. 🖤❤️

[@reereephillipsbeauty]

Awww thank you! I try my hardest to make the best videos that I can :) Thank you for watching, and for your beautiful comment!

[@aviirose9743]

I appreciate you being vegan SO MUCH. I love supporting fellow goth yotubers but when they show products I'm always having to wonder if it's cruelty free or not. it's so nice not having to worry on your channel. thank you so much! ♡ great video as always!

[@reereephillipsbeauty]

You're very welcome :) I love how the cruelty free makeup market has opened up even more, especially since Smashbox went cruelty free. Smashbox were one of my favourite foundation brands for professional use! I'm so glad I can use it again

[@aviirose9743]

ReeRee Phillips I agree! the more people talking about it and bringing awareness to it I think is really helping the community. it's so nice to see! ♡

[@megalopolis2015]

Totally. I get cruelty-free as much as possible. I use Ecotools brushes with recycled aluminum and bamboo handles, which are relatively inexpensive, very eco-friendly and vegan, and have great coverage (and they are really soft). It's great to have more options with the makeup itself, and ReeRee's professional expertise that she generously gives to us for next to nothing.

[@yadiraperez7451]

I absolutely love the way you explained everything, and the soothing music playing in the background. This look was beautiful. Love it.

[@raspberry_victor]

When you were talking about brushes it reminded me of my mentor, when I went vegan she kept telling me that I couldn't use synthetic hair brushes for powder... These days there are amazing synthetic brizzles there's no need to use animals + you are the absolute blending queen!

[@blissprokop6239]

I liked this style of tutorial. Explainations were good. I didn't know any of this before. I have hooded eyes and I find that eye shadow just disappears, so I tend to skip it. I also liked the background music. Very soothing.

[@kellyoshea4049]

Thank you so much. I have one hooded eye and the other is not, and I have always struggled with my makeup. Cannot wait to give this a go xx

[@lorilaymon2783]

I’ve watched many tutorials on hooded eyes and this was by far the most informative and educational. Thank you for taking the time to demonstrate and explain how to even out the shape between the two eyes, since many of us have this issue. Your videos are excellent!

[@sarahspencer4737]

This was so useful, thanks ReeRee! It's so nice to finally see an in-depth, step-by-step tutorial about makeup for hooded eyes.

[@amber8506]

You're so calm and thorough , really easy to follow

[@AmandaM1565]

I know I'm a late to this video and your channel in general, but I am so glad I found this! I also have oily lids and mismatched almond eyes. I have a scar under one which maked it droop a bit and it's so refreshing to see someone go into so much depth with their tutorials and also with their products! THANKYOU!! 😁

[@EmeraldVideosNL]

Omg, this video is a life saver!! I've been frustrated with my goth makeup ever since my teens. Tutorials just never worked for me because I just don't have lidspace. I only found out recently there's actually a name for it. It's nice to know that even hooded eyes CAN have a goth look. Thank you so much for this!!

[@karicampbell2116]

Exactly what I needed for my eye shape. I really appreciated the detail and pace at which you explained the look. I picked up on your energy too bc you didn’t have overpowering music in the background. I’ve been so frustrated lately trying to get this makeup thing down because my clothes and hair are always so cool. Thanks to you I’m feeling ready to try again and more competent than ever!

[@gsac3529]

I just love doing smokey eyes. I got some good information from you! Some of these techniques I always use like "false crease" since I'm an Asian w/ almond eyes & tapered lid creases.

[@vanessad.6932]

I have hooded eyes and for so long I didn't really do my eye shadows because it never looked right. I didn't find out till not to long ago it was because I had hooded eyes and there is a specific way of doing them. I love make up and now that I know how I should be doing my eyeshadow I get so excited. Unlike before I hated doing my eyeshadow. Thank you this video helps a lot! Love ya ReeRee

[@BKDaystar]

So helpful! Contouring for eyes is always tricky, and many of the Gothic classic eyeshadow styles tends to look odd on my eyes as they are shaped much more like yours, where it looks perfect until you close them slightly and then your eyes turn into odd slits - not in a pretty snake way but in a suddenly peculiar way. Thank you for the very specific advice!

[@victorianlyy]

THANK YOU SO MUCH REEREE!! I have hooded eyes and it's a nightmare! Nobody makes tutorials for this kind of eyes and it's frustrating. You're a blessing!

[@vanitasvantas171]

I'm really bad at make up, my eyes always have been a problem but now I wanna try this again. Thank you! I can't believe I actually understand a tutorial, you are amazing ♡

[@addaelliott2651]

I've been rewatching this video since it has come out, I cannot describe how much it inspires me.. she so beautiful, calm and intelligent, I miss this a lot

[@LostInOldMovies]

You have some of the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen, honestly whenever I watch your videos I get entranced by your eyes lol you also have striking cheekbones, so naturally beautiful.

[@valib19]

Love the way you explain, it's very clear! Thank you ❤

[@reereephillipsbeauty]

Nawwww thank you!

[@socalliluv]

Yesssss!! Another alternative Tuber with good makeup tutorials 😄

[@wolfsbane1991]

SO helpfull, I could never seem to follow all those smokey eyes tutorials, I couldn't understand how they just "blended up from the crease", mine never looked cohesive. Turns out I have hooded eyes, your video helped SO much! Thank you!

[@lillunaeticx]

You’re definately my fave youtuber! Not only are you beautiful, your so talented too! I wish my makeup skills were half as good as yours! ❤️

[@gothicknyghtful]

Ahh thank you, been lacking confidence with make up but ive been wanting ti do them again. Sadly even if i pay a friend no one wants to do them since i have small eyelids and oily to. Thank you so much!!^^

[@CooksAndLooks]

How great was this !! Thankyou so much for your tips and tricks. I have slightly hooded eyes and this was very informative.

[@erinscott1147]

i really genuinely found your video quite helpful. i always find that my left eye is the fussiest to work with, however you gave great insight into how to make uneven eyes work well together. also i really love the lip colour at the end! xx

[@KaterinaJDDR]

I needed this video in my life.. You are the makeup artist that I have found on youtube that has the most similar eye shape with me, so it's very very easy to follow your instructions, I am always trying to perfect the black smokey look on my hooded eyes and I will give it a go again now that I've watched this.. Thanks a lot! 😊♥

[@user-yo7bx8nx2d]

I have very hooded eyes. This was very helpful because one of mine is quite different then the other. I love that you went through step by step and explained thungs thoroughly. I love all these amazing vegan eyeshadows and the just sit at home waiting for me. I have a bit more confidence now after watching this video, thank you ❤

[@cassandraleader5038]

Thank you! This video clears up many problems I have doing a smoky eye look. The video was very informative and the look is so lovely.

[@littlegoth696]

Thank you so much for this tutorial :). I also have hooded eyes, and you help me a lot to improve my (poor) makeup technique. Thanks!

[@RadiantaSophiA]

This tutorial is so helpful! I am always kind of struggling with my eyeshape when applying eyeshadow...Thanks a lot!❤

[@AbsoluteMiniacGena]

I’m a new subscriber and am loving your videos. I’m older and have never really been a makeup person but I’m getting married 4weeks today so I’ve been looking for inspiration. I’ve spent a small fortune on everything I need and just need my daughter to pick me up a highly pigmented black eyeshadow tomorrow when she is in town. I have my foundations, concealer. Countless brushes and whatnot and although I will have some colour in my face, I shall be using one of your videos for my eye tutorial which I shall start practicing tomorrow night. I’d never have known you were Australian until you spoke about the pricing of brushes in AUD. I thought you were English like myself but without a regional accent. Thanks for great video content!

[@shinobusora]

Ooo, thank you for this! I have heavy lids and asymmetrical eyes, so this helps a lot. I also have really thick lashes, so I always have that pesky problem of the eyeliner not quite meeting the shadow. So many helpful tips and tricks!

[@aliciafree4246]

This was so peaceful and helpful to watch

[@deedeeblackwater8354]

This was so helpful! I have hooded eyes and I never thought of moving my crease up with a transition color!

[@DominosAndHearts]

Can you please do more tutorials like this. For different eye shadow looks (halo eyes etc)

[@reereephillipsbeauty]

All my eyeshadow looks are aimed at my kind of eyes, but with some minor changes, can work with many different eye shapes

[@xcarriecatx]

You look gorgeous. Having smaller eyes, I have never been quite happy when I create a smokey eye. I look forward to trying your techniques.

[@anonanon4279]

I myself have hooded eyes and I will be going out with friends tomorrow so I’ll definitely be trying this out! I always really admire your beauty and makeup. I feel like whatever look you go for be it makeup or natural, you just look so drop dead gorgeous. Such a beautiful creature! By the way I really enjoy watching your videos and get so excited when I get notifications saying you’ve uploaded! This is probably my favourite KZbin channel! Will forever be subscribed 🥀🍂🖤

[@thegothravager]

Great video! I found it very helpful. If you wouldn't mind doing a few more tutorials I would greatly appreciate ones on applying lipstick best(always an issue with me) and how best to use concealer. Thanks for all your hard work!

[@LedKashmir]

Yes, this was helpful. My right eye is hooded and when I do my makeup it gives me issues. Thanks Ree. Also have noticed how the eyeshadow and liner don't want to blend correctly on the bottom last line. Sometimes I have used eyeshadow for that truck as well.

[@malbolgiasspawn1364]

Thank you for this video. Very helpful for my hooded eyes. I love your channel and could watch you apply makeup all day. You make it look so easy. 😆

[@necroflowers2244]

Thank you so much for these tips! I do have small almond shaped eyes and my left eye is slightly more hooded that my right. So this definitely helped me clean up my eye shadow look!

[@BattyRagDoll]

Thank you SO much for making this Reeree, this is extremely helpful, and I would say more so than other tutorials on the subject have been.

Thank you for sharing this. My eyes are very hooded so this is helpful. Love your videos🖤

[@mommarotten2092]

I have hooded almond eyes as well, and this was extremely helpful! I've been doing the all-black smokey eye look for over a decade, and can never seem to get it 100% right. I'll be using these tricks in the near future 💜

[@samanthashore9627]

Thanks for uploading this. It was very helpful. I have small lids too.

[@RainbowMcFuzzy]

This tutorial really helped me! I still don't have the skills or quality makeup to make it look as flawless as yours but my makeup hasn't looked this good.

[@MrsKaczmarczyk]

This video was really helpful, I'm terrible at doing my eyeshadow 😔 and I feel this will help a lot. Thank you 🖤🖤😊

[@reereephillipsbeauty]

You're very welcome

[@megalopolis2015]

Goodness. Another great video. I am not so good with blending eye shadow, but am getting better. I am doing more interesting things with eyeliner, though, including getting close to the water line, but not inside. That really has helped open up the eye. I will even put a bit of white on the inside, just to dramatize the effect a bit. Still, nothing i do compares with your expertise. I am learning a lot. Thank you for sharing.

[@RoxsanneL]

I'm going to try this method out, I have two completely different shaped eyes and they are both hooded as well, thank you for this tutorial, you look amazing as always 😊 x

[@uhohwawh6965]

i literally have the same eyes as you and this is a lifesaving video. thank you

[@solvolva]

Thank you for posting this!! I have such issues with my hooded/almond eyes!!!

[@reereephillipsbeauty]

You're most welcome, gorgeous!

[@agresticumbra]

Lovely look for you. It helps that your eyes are a bit bigger than you perceive, I’m assuming, and your hoods aren’t as heavy as many. You also have outstanding facial features overall, so that’s a genuine bonus. 🖤 Have always had heavy hoods (single lid as a toddler, then developed lid/hood as I aged), and now that I’ve cracked the half century mark, my hoods are heavy enough that I feel them applying pressure to my sparse, stubby lashes. I’ve also always had crepey lids, and that seriously interferes with false lashes and precise eye looks. I’m like Azura below in that my eyes are deep set into my head, but unlike Azura, my eyes are not large. Since I was a girl I described my eyes as dead pig eyes. They’re actually almond as well, but the way my hood drapes, it clips the eye shape at the outer corners. I tend to open up my eyes more in photos these days because of it. Fortunately, my eyes are a bit wider than average, so even though there isn’t much lid to brow area, I don’t look to closed in. As I’ve aged, however, I’ve found that putting dark colours on my lid actually cause my eyes to recede even more, so I don’t do that. Being that I have a fairly broad face, I don’t want that to happen. My eyes need to look bigger. If I do a look like yours above, I definitely have to do it in lighter colours such as brown, plum, or grey (think of face & eyes that are a mashup of Daphne Zuniga & Lucy Lawless). On a tangent, I ought to go through your boots reviews, and read comments. Since breaking my ankle in December of 2004, I can no longer wear platforms or heels. I can wear shorty cowboy boots, when my ankle isn’t swollen & stuff, and I can wear lace up boots with a modest heel, but that’s it. I have a pair of black brogue boots by Hudson that I adore (Sherwin - perfect, straight out of the box), and have had for six years now, so it would be nice to find some boots which cost half that which don’t render me disabled due to poor design. I treat my Hudson boots like my fine china, so they aren’t worn daily. I’d love to find some every day boots. Thanks for sharing.

[@Trish156]

great detailed video thank you.also i love your look! gorgeous

[@electrocutiewitchpyre8418]

This is very helpful to me!! I have horribly hooded eyes, and one is very much worse than the other! I'm starting to lose weight and trying to get my makeup the way I want it seems to be a nightmare, but you made it easy to understand techniques and I thank you so much for that!!!

[@morgandunnington]

I love your videos so much, this was amazing to watch and drink coffee to. Also, I'll be emulating this look today! thanks for the inspiration!

[@Rose_Macabre]

This was a great tutorial. Thanks for the tip about how to deal with that lower lash line gap. I have uneven eyelids, too, where one is significantly larger than the other, and it also has an additional crease. Uuugh. It makes eye shadow application such a fussy business, to get them evened out.

[@mysterymccarthy6851]

Great video, thank you! Question for you: have you ever thought of trying, or have you ever tried any natural sourced make up or beauty products? My sensitivities have caused me to use natural sourced products whenever possible.

[@jasminebarnette3125]

I love this, I have really hooded, oily eyelids, and this really helps out, thank you so much for this video, I've been struggling with this forever.

[@stormfaerie]

Thank you for this. It was helpful and I can't wait to try it. Also, I love the music you chose. Kinda reminds me of Minecraft music😄Focusing and relaxing😊Your finished look is beautiful.

[@ember_tgq8950]

This was such a huge help! My eyes drive me batty... I end up looking like a raccoon or I'm melting lol beautifully done thank you so much!

[@thedailyclaire]

This was SO helpful! I have ridiculously asymmetric eyes, so this is exactly what I needed.

[@ladydatura2529]

Hi Reeree! I have seen some artists set the lid primer with a neutral, light powder to aid blending. Do you suggest skipping that and prefer not setting it? Is one way better than the other, or is it personal preference only?

[@TatyianaMcGahee]

Sometimes I just watch hours of your makeup tutorials 😍

[@RachaelMortician]

Thank you so much for doing this tutorial! :) It will definitely help me bunches! I have hooded, small eyes and my eyelids are also asymmetrical (which occurred because of an eye infection I got about a year ago). As an aside, I never noticed your asymmetry before this video!

Love your makeup! I know the 2nd one you used was the black, but which shadow was the first one??? It looked like it might have been the reddish color, but it could have been one of the brownish shades.

I loved this, I thought i was the only person with different eyes lol. Thanks !!

[@blackcatundermoon]

Really helpful, gorgeous! And this is actually a kind of look that I can never get right, probably exactly because I have hooded eyes, so I'm really thankful you did a classic smokey eye 😊 now I just need a good black eyeshadow as that one, cause the ones I tried so far seem to never be dark enough 😂😂 oh and I would suggest you do this kind of step by step video for contour and talk about good products for pale skin, I struggle with it because it's always everything too warm toned and dark... Wishing you an awesome day, gorgeous! 😘💜💜

[@xHalleyHeroine]

Thank you for this video. I have the same problem; one eye is hooded and the other is not. I always find myself with one eye where all colors can be seen and the other doesn't match, so I will be sure to try out the tips/ techniques you showed here.

[@reereephillipsbeauty]

Makeup is very much about practice and trying new techniques. Smokey eyes rely heavily on blending and applying the right amount of pressure while blending. I'm glad you enjoyed the video, beautiful!
