It takes 3 colours to really define a eye. This is how i teach it. So if you were to come and see me personally, you could be getting the same advice, regardless of eye shape, colour, etc...
Highlight colour.
The highlight colour goes on the eye lid, inner corner and lower corner as well as just under the brow. Your choice of shade is up to you. But it must be the lightest of the three shades. You have a selection of choices. Shimmer. Matte. Metallic. Its up to you. Metallic will be more dramatic than a matte highlight. If you are choosing a shimmer or metallic shade, then apply it to you eyelid as mentioned and under your brow, not over the entire eye as this can look tacky! If you are choose a matte shade you can apply it all over your entire eyelid, from lid to brow bone. When picking matte shades try not going more than 3 shades lighter than your skin tone as this can look overly harsh and really wash out the eye.
*Note. Ebony beauties will find it most flattering to be a shimmer shade as opposed to a matte one as this will add beautiful dimension to the eye and ensure no shades turn ashy.
Midtone Shade.
This is the most important shade. This really really REALLY takes shape of you eye. This will open up the eye, and start the contouring part. Your midtone shade is in the same family as your skin tone but 1-3 shades darker. It is, without doubt the most boring of the three shades but the most important. Getting this step right will change your eye - you can really see this in my tutorial as i talk you through it step by step and you can see the depth and eye really take effect.
You apply your midtone shade to the crease of the eye. Starting from the inner corner of the eye by the nose, apply it in a windshield wiper motion back and forth. MAC 226 brush is best of this. Do not bring the midtone shade out beyond the edge of your eye. This can drag the eye down and look unflattering. You can also apply the midtone shade to your lower lash line from outside corner to inner, meeting your highlight shade. This step is optional but i do it because it creates a smooth flow of colours.
Contour Colour.
This is the darkest of the three shades. I'm not talking black, but its darker than the other two shades. You apply this colour from the outer eyelid and depending on your eye shape (spoken about more in eyeshadow 101 - mature eyes) up to half way across your eye. The brush you use is important here and again, depends on your eye shape. Close set eyes will want to use a small brush, hooded eyes or wide set eyes will want to use a larger brush. You will also apply the contour shade under your lower lash line about 2/3 - half away across the lower lash line. This will really make the eyes sand out.
Eyeliner:
You have a choice here. Pencil. Or powder. I prefer powder. Less hard. How you apply depends on your eye shape. Normally you would apply to your upper lash line but if you have hooded eyes you might have an issue as you don't have very much lid space showing and adding a dark colour here will look like you have a full eyelid of dark shadow so i would prefer to upper tight line the upper eyelid but colouring in the upper waterline with a eye pencil. But again, the choice is yours.
Mascara:
Waterproof tends to be the best option. But any that you like is fine. I like black on nearly everyone because it just makes the eyes stand out more, but brown is fine. I tend to stay away from Blue, Green, etc... because its not the most natural.

[@arieldonofrio7421]

Wayne, I just found you on KZbin and now I am obsessed with your videos. You have some of the most amazing makeup tips I have EVER seen or heard. Thank you for sharing your time and talent with all of us lucky viewers!!!

[@erudite60]

That was brilliant! Since watching your videos Wayne, my makeup has improved immeasurably. I have two sons, aged 38 & 40, & now I've found a third!!

[@fairday2]

Do a tutorial for ladies in their 60s. I have trouble with my eye lids, and have difficulty keeping eyeliner as a continuous line. I believe that my eyes are partially hooded.

[@MACTackleBox]

Wayne! Thank you so much! Once again you've taught me loads. While I'm only 42 and didn't think a video labled "Mature" eyes would fit for me, the tips on contouring were wonderful. Also, I don't care for a big think line of black eyeliner - so the liner tips were priceless. Thank you so much! I always learn something new on your channel. Much appreciated!

[@nafdikyaaqsa]

So glad you overcame all the struggles and are now a brilliant success, Wayne. Looking at this, thought of the difficulties in the past you spoke about and it made me feel warm inside to realize how far you've come. Here you are, doing what you love, with no idea that soon millions of people will adore you :)

[@WatchesbyHelen]

As a "mature woman" of 53 I really like this technique. You have some classy ideas. I love makeup but at my age too much can be disastrous. I use variety to feed my addiction but moderation to stay classy and look good. You do a great job. Thank you.

[@benicetoanimals8471]

Wayne, I don't know how I missed this tutorial which has so many great tips in one. I can't help but notice how you've blossomed over the years and the background as well has also livened itself up. I see that you always used the best of the best, even when you were a little boy like here. xxx

[@ersheri]

Perfect! Thank you. I just did my eyes and got tons of compliments. One gal at work said "I could never do my makeup like you did"! And that's what I thought too!

[@7931lila]

Wayne, this is my absolute favorite eyeshadow tutorial that you do. I'd watched it last week and applied the same techniques along side the video. Loved the way my eyes turned out. When I wanted to find it again today, I couldn't find it in my history so I watched about 10+ of your eyeshadow tutorials. Alas, I found it and I will never let it go again!!! Sincerely, a 55-year old fan from America.

[@margaretisme7751]

u should put it in your liked video or ur playlist video or download it. that's I do it...xx

[@ehrlichlanierc7429]

thanks, great idea and will do right away!

[@brookesmithjo]

I love the Goss tutorials. He is amazing! I especially like this one. Leaving one eye undone so you can see the effects of the shading as he goes was extremely helpful for me. Thank you for that.

[@sandramac60]

Having just discovered you yesterday, I am amazed at your time on You Tube! I am so glad to have found you, as I think your demonstrations, your methods are easy to follow, and you are a great teacher! As I have aged, my application techniques also have to change, and I am so glad to have found someone brave enough to apply on yourself, while giving the explanations! I have been wearing makeup for 50 years, and there is always something new to learn, whether its about new products or new techniques. Thank you; I`m a new and happy subscriber, who will turn to your videos first for any questions I have. Thank you!

[@dronelayer]

Ridiculously HAPPY I ran across your "Smokey Eye for Hooded Eyes" video because it led me here! I've always wanted to see how contouring was done on mature, hooded eyes and you're a GOOD teacher. Looking forward to checking out all your lessons!!! Thank you!

[@loobylou6777]

I like the way he explains every step-pros and cons- while he applies it to his own face. Thank you

[@colleencc7]

This. Is. BRILLIANT! Hands down the single-most useful make-up tutorial I have ever seen done by anyone. Straightforward, practical advice that I can walk straight over to my makeup mirror with and try tomorrow, which is exactly what we women need. I hate to think that over 30 qualifies as "mature" but really I think this is good advice for anyone. I really appreciate the practical nature of the advice that you've given here, and that you've shown the colours & brushes as well.

[@coolcutsgal2]

omg, Wayne you've come so far!! this was 2009! Please PLEASE please do another vid on mature hooded eyes....:*) love you for ever!!

[@BirgitBauhaus]

Same to me! I love him too, because of his well mindet, charming, friendly and kind way to introduce and inform us, he's my beloved KZbinr, such a fantastic human and MakeUp-Artist! Wayne, my dear, you are the Best! 😍😘

[@twimama43]

I have been using this tutorial as a guide for my eye makeup for the last 3 days. I have not felt so pretty in so very long. I don't look like I've gone crazy mad with my shadow and look pulled together. For the first time in a long time I feel good about my makeup. Thank you so much Wayne!!! Oh...and I'm 45 years old. ;)

[@christinat.7171]

I am relearning to apply eye makeup. lining the upper waterline is something new for me. thank you for going through and demo it, so I can clearly see what you're talking about. see you in your next post! !!

[@kayekog]

I concur completely with recent comment made by "Schrumplet." I keep watching your tutorials over and over and I can't tell you how helpful they've been to me. I'm sure this is the third time that I've seen this one and your technique is just now beginning to sink in. Thank you so much. Again.

[@clckaryn9058]

Omg I love this video!! This is the first early video from Wayne that I've watched. I love how detailed he is compared to very brief tutorial that he do nowadays. And I really appreciate how he added note for us to read.

[@jellyface211]

brilliant video. I'm rubbish with makeup and just now dealing with ageing skin and how to adjust. Especially smokey eyes, I was ending up looking haggard. Luckily I have similar colouring, so last minute before a date I went to MAC, bought the 3 eyeshadows mentioned without even trying them, came home and did this. Oh. My. God. Thank you. For the 1st time in my life, I looked grown up and mature instead of mutton/lamb syndrome. It's all perfect, and I learned so much. It makes such a difference instead of watching someone do it on a model. Every bit of info you give has completely changed what I do, from concealer to eyeliner to contouring (never done it!). Brilliant. Too bad you're not a stylist. If you could do this with my wardrobe, I'd be sorted. xxx

[@felicitousmaximus8685]

In the short time I've been watching your videos you've addressed every makeup question I ever had!! Hooded lids, mature eye makeup, jojoba oil added to your makeup...you're brilliant. Can't say enough good things about you Mr. Goss, please keep it up. And , if I'm asking, maybe do something about hooded eyes with a crepe texture on the upper lids. How DO I minimize that? Thank you so much.

[@juliefizpatrick513]

Oh yes please help with the crepe that moves with the darn brush as ur trying to blend!:). TY 👀😦💗❤️

[@sunybandrick]

You are such a great teacher Wayne! Thanks so much-Since I have been applying your techniques, I feel so much better about how I look! UR the greatest!

[@happygodsavedme]

I watched how to do this yesterday, and today I did what you said. So I looked rockin, cuz the 18th was my 60th birthday!! I lined my eyes with gel black with one of those brushes, and it looked REALLY GOOD!!! THANK you so MUCH for your advice!!! You are awesome!!! (pushing liner into the lash line instead of a thick line on top.) I am gonna take ALL your advice!! It's about time, HU???

[@joanhart7187]

This is brilliant. I tried doing my eyes just in the step by step and once I had mastered it, it was very quick to do. I have many comments about how great I look and I am so pleased. Thank you a million for this video.

[@kristiebrady8432]

THE BEST instructional video out there. Wayne, I appreciate your aesthetic and professionalism!

[@RAWmaniak]

I am completely addicted to your tutorials. You are awesome. Thank you for giving tips for us mature women. I am 49 with slightly hooded lids and I have never looked better. My husband told me my eye makeup was perfect!!!

[@abbracia]

This video is extremely informative. It seemed like a master class on suble, classic, yet very universally flattering make-up. Thank you for scripting and demonstrating with really good instructions.

[@lynnm967]

I love this video! I used the techniques in this video and later went to lunch with a friend. She commented on how beautiful she thought my eyes were and never noticed how green they were. Boy, did that make my day! Thank you so much!

[@Jagow1]

Video was great and I watched it months ago and somehow found it again and put it on my desktop so I can view every so often. I look at people who choose to dislike and I just wonder why the hell would someone dislike this video.and I say to them GET A LIFE. Anyway I have grown to adore you and I find myself dropping your name at the local Sephora store. Keep up the great job you are doing.

[@Merrida100]

This is such a lovely post! I stopped subbing to other MUA gurus because they all targeted young, dramatic, sometimes theatrical looks. That info just does not transfer with age. Wayne has been the ONLY one to address makeup for the mature face, and he does it with dignity and class. So professional. I now exclusively follow his advice for skin care & makeup, and it's made my life so different! At 50 can't wear it how we did at 20, and he showed me why and how. NOW I get it. He's my superstar!

[@ravenorkel]

Aw Wayne, you're just a baby here!!

[@karenaddy6142]

I am a 6o year old woman who never learned how to properly apply her makeup. I do "ok", but that is about it. I came across your tutorials quite by accident and am so glad that I did. I have tons of "stuff" in my make-up collection (most I never use) and now realize that I don't need very much at all to create a dramatic and polished look. Your tutorials are very easy to understand and follow and I'm sure with practice I can accomplish the looks I have always admired. Thank you

[@edithford4723]

Wayne you are the best make up artist in the whole wide world. I love all of your tutorials on make up and all your info that you give me to help me look good. you are very fun and sincere in giving me all I need to be the best I can be and I just want to thank you for all you do for making us mature women look good! I love all your videos and watch them as many times as I can! keep them coming always and thanks again! EDITH

I absolutely loved it! I am 59, but I have always had hooded eyes. I used Urban Decay Basics and applied mine as you were demonstrating. For the first time in my life I had lids! Now, they have an exotic almond shape. Thank you so much for this tutorial. I cannot wait for more!!!

[@ellenr5148]

Such a great video! I have been trying to add pencil eyeliner to my top lid and just making a friggin mess! So glad I watched this.

[@InnerPeaceBeauty]

Oh my stars! It's baby Goss!! 😍 I'm rewatching my favs & this wee gem popped up.. I am so glad you're looking happier (eyes) now.. Keep smiling and being your beautiful self.. Much love from New Zealand xx Victoria.

[@ThePattibeth]

Super job. Been watching for awhile and now subscribed. You are fantastic and professional. And low key with no bground music to distract.

[@sufcgaz6]

I find myself reviewing your videos again and again. You've been so helpful to me in the way I now look at makeup, the way I apply makeup and the way I purchase makeup! Thanks for being here for us novices. xx

[@lyndajoko9773]

Thank you for not forgetting that "mature" women want to look great as well, and have the income and time to invest on beauty products.

[@nancycausey9513]

I am 55 years young and have just started learning about proper application of make up, mature skin just wasn't as easy and not much fun. Fortunate to find one of the best without much searching! I appreciate you addressing the need's of this age bracket.

[@BeautifulBibia24]

Thank you for this tutorial! I am working on perfecting this technique! I have to tell you that I used Vellum instead of Phloof because I thought I didn't have it and Wedge instead of Malt. I have to say, the Vellum makes a beautiful violet/purple look to this than what the Phloof did (I found my Phloof). I have gotten so many compliments on this look :) Thanks from this "over 40" hooded eye woman! :)

[@BeautifulBibia24]

Tania, you can do this!! Do it along with the video. That helps! LORIOVER40 has great tutorials on eye makeup for hooded eyes!

[@ireneficek3559]

[@according101]

I always stayed away the eye shadows because I have very oily lids, but thanks to you I discover urban decay. So thank you from the bottom of my heart for making videos and changing the way ordinary people put make up. :)

[@barbaraspindler4033]

Invaluable! Now if I can just do it to myself by myself!!!! I love your calming voice and seemingly patient tone, as you guide us step by step through the process, with perfect reasoning and reassurance, ending with your charming wink (which tells me "hey, it's going to be OK, and you'll look beautiful!" - cause that's what you mean, right?). Thank you!

[@Tikkiwitch]

I have been putting my black eyeliner on both inside rims for more years than this charming artist has been alive and could never figure out why it looked so good until now--I'm a mature lady with hooded eyes. Thank you so much!

[@bridgetcollins4997]

I like it. I would love to see more like this. I'm not insulted by the over 30 comment, as I'm 52 and need some help (a lot of help), with mature makeup. Thank you.

[@marleenneil7542]

What’s so nice about your tutorials is your explanation as to why you do a certain application rather than just showing it. Thank you so much.

[@TKTheHun]

I love this one looks great. I'm shocked how big difference it made. Wow. Thanks

[@celiebugpro123]

Wow!! I have been looking all over for someone to show me how to correctly place make up on my face without making me look older. I am very excited to try so many of your tips. Very excited. I can only say thank you for your time and energy that you have put in helping older women like myself revive my self esteem. Thank you very much. Cecelia

[@sharonlmc65]

Awesome video! Would you update anything now that it's 6 years ago this video was made?

[@NordicMother]

Thank you so much for this video. I am 35+ and have hooded eyes naturally which are getting more defined by aging. I have a very difficult time with applying eye-makeup and your tip on using the eye-liner on the upper water line is brilliant!! Most tutorials are done for young women and I cannot get the same look that they get so THANK YOU again!! Best wishes...

[@italiangirlcancook]

So I just found you (2016)really appreciate lining the Top water line because nothing looks worse than a wrinkle looking liner on the Lid !!!

[@lindasmith1350]

[@rshallpac]

I've been following you for about a month...best advice out there :) I searched for the mature look...I'm 48...the contouring and gel liner on the upper lid made just the difference I was searching for! Perfect for my eyes, thank you. Would really love to see a little more on your channel for mature skin - maybe on a mature woman. Things really change and you can't just throw things on and look great like when you're young. I know people don't realize that. It's a very big deal so thanks again!!

[@KarinNelson]

Could you do an updated video of exactly this with your great camera? I would love to see this up close. Thank you!

[@LadyAsia]

I'd love to see that too!

[@dianewallace3963]

Would love to see a updated version of this, the back ground noise makes it difficult to hear and your current videos are so clear and crisp...

[@diannes4384]

Wow finally a look I can recreate myself! I have been doing the same eye look since high school and now that I am a bit older this look helps look younger!!!

[@ehrlichlanierc7429]

OMG! Thank You So Much! This was most helpful especially to see it done. I am 74 and do not have grey hair, it just never turned, I do wear makeup whenever I go out of the house or just want to make myself feel better, so doing it right is important and no I don't want to look like a retired porn star 😏! So thanks again, a lot!

[@ROSALIND43]

Would love to see more for mid-70’s

[@BirgitBauhaus]

You are so cute ! Same is to me, I'm 65 now, and since 5 years I get hooded eyes 😥, more and more, and I'm really thankfully for Waynes Instructions and Informations! Love you, Wayne ! 😍😘 Thank You! 🙋👍

[@shellyof4]

Finally, make-up tips for those (me) who are no longer teens. I have been viewing youtube video's for years trying to find make-up tips for my progressive aging and have failed to find any till now. Thank you.

[@cassandrabevan5825]

OMG I Have been watching your tutorials for 12 hours now. Need to take a break or so says boyfriend. ♡

[@ivanabeba]

thank you for this tutorial! i do bronzer like this, fits my face much more than just "contouring".

[@guiomarrebelo6494]

Thank you Wayne, love you

[@susanbevis6557]

I'm so happy to have come across your videos. My daughter is getting married and i can't really afford a professional to do my makeup. This video saved me because now i can do my eyes and have them open up instead of look worse than before i started. Also "yay" for turning us all on to NYX shadows. They are affordable and highly pigmented. If i'm not careful i make think I'm a makeup artist myself !!! Love you. Keep the videos coming

[@carolsmith6573]

You re like a make-up god. Thank you :)

[@missskinnypinny]

YOUR A SUPERSTAR !! 20 years of makeup and i learned more in one of your videos then any other time cant thank you enough

[@marloflanagan7421]

the window wiper technique causes skips in my crepey eyelids. can you recommend a different technique?

[@amazonianbeauty5040]

I find patting eyeshadow on and then blend making small circular motions instead of swiping really helps. Also make sure to layer and blend layer and blend...I hope this helps, I'm not a professional just learned from personal experience.

[@marloflanagan7421]

Thanks!! At this point I've given up on eye shadow. I will try it!

[@nancyobyrne]

I will be 57 this year and have never worn eye shadow because I did not know how to apply it , thanks to this video I am now wearing it, everyone is saying how good I look but they can't put their finger on what's changed. Thank you very much you are great.

[@MoodIndigo1]

When I read ''mature'', I was hoping over 60 :) Great video anyway!

[@Bichonlvr]

Thank you so much Wayne, I learned a lot from this vid. I've had hooded eyes all my life and as I've gotten older, they've become even more hooded. These techniques are awesome and work wonders! Thank you again! :)

[@peggyt1243]

LOL Over 30 is not mature. Your day will come.

[@DebbieSparrow]

peggyt1243 I'm 60 and I can't put all that on my eyes without looking OLD

[@GrannyLaLa04]

+Debbie Sparrow I hear ya!! I can do a little and this seems to be so much less than other tutorials I've seen. I can't do anything black around my eyes. It sucks the color out and causes my eyes to be very old looking. Even way back in my 20's. I can't wear black clothing, never could, not a solid black. The darker color around the eye in the lash line would really help my eyelashes.

[@peggyt1243]

+Granny LaLa I could never wear black eyeliner or mascara, not even in my 20s. Now that I am in my 60s, I hardly ever wear makeup but when I do I wear brown. It is hard to find brown eyeliner and mascara but keep looking because it does exist. Ditto brown eyebrow pencil. The brown provides some definition without the harshness.

[@mifnp8887]

+peggyt1243 Maybelline Great Lash makes a brown mascara and pencil.

[@nolid7843]

+MIFNP - they used to make grey mascara and brow/liner pencil. it looked great on natural blondes of all ages and older women with grey hair.

[@garmtpug]

I'm 64 and using this easy technique for creating beautiful eyes is quite simple, fast and effective for me. I had noticed that over the years my standard techniques for making up my eyes was creating an owlish and stark look. My skin had changed, but I hadn't changed my routine! What I especially like about Mr. Goss' way is that you can tailor this to whether you want a subtle look or one that is more stand-out. I generally opt for the stand-out look because I wear glasses and my eyes can get lost behind them. An excellent video - and I recommend that anyone try this. You may do what I did and toss out your eyeliners!!

[@myfrugalraggylife7104]

'older people over 30' - ?? ha ha , no hope for me then !

[@margaritast.hilaire9716]

I love all your tutorials and the details and the way you don't push expensive make up just colours and good brushes to help with the technique.. when or not to use glittery , but mainly matt as I'm 47 and hardly leave the house but you have made me want to look good for me. Thank you merry Christmas and God bless you to take the time to make a difference to my life 😀👍

[@wfrigillana224]

over 30? I'm nearly 55. I guess this means I should give up and die.

Yup I am up there in years with you. Bit it beats the alternative. I don't feel old though. Just remember that 60 is the New 40! or something like that.

[@neeloferseward5898]

I tried it today and was just trying. I have used all your tutorials and the eyes looked great. all matt nothing shimmer I am 64 but I have been following only you Love your tutorials. thank you

[@fifigirl8208]

thanks Wayne, you step by step, explanations of why and why not, are just what this 50yr old beginner needs,. my makeup routine was tinted moustouriser, bronzer, mascara and lippy. so armed with liquid and mineral powder, setting powders and bases etc i divided my face in half and used one on each side. now I'm off to your mature smokey eye tutorial to see how that looks on the left. thanks again

[@IsisTiamat]

You are a miracle-worker! I have been looking all over for a tutorial like this one being 54, loving make-up and trying to adjust the heavy eye-liner-glittery looks to my now maturing skin. You are right on message with everything you say and you have created a gorgeous look that works very well for me. THANK YOU. It is so difficult to find palettes with matte eyeshadow. Would you consider suggesting some? Shine on!

[@lanorawest6932]

Thank you for yet another informative video. As a "mature" woman I find everyone of your videos the best when it comes to make up applications of all types. Please keep them coming!

[@mssixty3426]

Lining the water line of the upper lid is one of the most useful tips I've learned from you for my hooded eyes. It looks good even if I don't use eyeshadow.

[@plb1257]

Oh my gosh! I have watched so many of your videos and loved them all but this was the best one for me yet. The eyeliner on the "waterline" of the upper lid made a TREMENDOUS difference for me. Thank you so very much!!

[@clpage871]

Hola Wayne: both the under-the-upper lid and wiggle in on the top of the base of the lashes are the best demonstrated versions I've seen. Gracias, CL

[@TheBranum]

crazy...i've been looking for someone who will do a tutorial for 30 something eyes and I hadn't found anything but 40 up and 30 under....leave it to a man to fix my make-up problems....my husband will be so pleased!...thanx! :)

[@CandleVixen]

I totally agree with this! I'm in awe of Wayne. His delivery or presentation is so more appealing than most of the others I've seen on KZbin.

[@sharoncruz9901]

Fantastic. I need to watch this multiple times while I'm trying it on my own eyes! I've never been sure what to do in the corners, and at the edges of my eyes. You explain it so clearly. Thank you.

[@yamrepooh]

I've been doing my make up in a similar fashion forever, but discovering techniques through and trial error actually. I have been lining my waterline on top as I hate thick liner, since 1965, I, before discovering I could do it in that way,I used max factor cake eyeliner (discontinued in the 70s) on the top and removed the thicker line with a cotton bud or several, to create the dark lash effect. I am so glad that a young man is now extolling the virtues of subtle being better. I am 62. X

[@conniebollibon7942]

absolutely beautiful Wayne, I love that look because I'm older in my 50s and it looks wonderful. thank you.

[@lolapola911]

Your'e fantastic Wayne!! straight to the point and very helpful. Im only 19 and have always had hooded eyes...i use this technique everyday despite never having learnt it, when you get used to makeup, the techniques you use just come with experience of what looks good and it really works for me!

I love to come back to this video, because I've been doing my eye make up this way for years, even when others were putting eye shadow right up into the brow(not a subtle highlight but bright blue). I didn't have a hooded eye then so I put liner on the lash line but not waterline, I would put linner on the bottom as well. I had taste and didn't know it ha.

Awesome! You saved my face. I was putting the concealer all over under my eyes which covered the dark circles but I could see the bags still! I wish I had you to do my makeup every day! You are the best!

This is really awesome! I've watched about 10 videos with different ideas. But, none of them suggested a "midtone" color, and I could really see how it POPPED those eyes out. Also, I've tried different eyeliner methods, but never thought of using a DARKER shade just along the lashes! The "waterline" method seems to close my eyes, so I don't usually use it. Thanks for all the great suggestions. Now I gotta go try it!

Thanks! I have always had a problem while applying eyeliner to my mums eyes,and I couldnt figure out what I was doing wrong...........This has been really helpful.

I didn't realize this was nearly 3 years old, very pertinent still - this really is a timeless, ageless look. I have not yet tried this, but I can't wait to give it a go. Thanks!

I know nothing about make-up. But find my self in a job now that almost requires me to wear it. I am learning and I really like how you did this, from applying it to your self to show how it is done to the tip on using a dark shadow to press into the base of the lashes.. very cool. This older lady approves!

I've watched many, many make up videos here on KZbin....and I think yours are the best. I believe I've learned more from you than anyone else. Thank you so much!
