  • wink* Mandy is adorable! ....love her and this video!

  • fucking amazing!

  • Greetings Wayne - shall I assume that it is *never* possible to do wings on maturely hooded eyes? I really miss the wings of my youth :(... I was a goth 30 yrs ago and still want to keep my eye makeup looking as vibrant as possible. Other than my old hooded eyes, I have an eccentric personality, dress "cool" and have a lively spirit.

  • @grngeisha Hello! I have the same question. I love the look of winged/cat-eye eyeliner, but haven't been able to apply it successfully. It only (sort of) works if I follow the natural line of my lower, rather than upper, lashes, but even then I have to keep the winged-out part very, very small. Otherwise, it "bumps into" the hooded part. Advice welcome!

  • at the end of the video when you are showing the difference - are you pulling her forehead up as it looks like her eyebrow has more of an arch!?

  • @harky3413 I think he filled in her brows there :)

  • omgosh your like pulling her face apart haha

  • What was the loose powder, shimmer color, and brow color used? Thanks.

  • This was so helpfull, I have really hooded eyes. :( xxx

  • I would like to have seen a final "full face" shot, so the eye makeup is not SO HUGE....you know, see how it is balanced out with the face.

  • Mandy has nice eyebrows:)

  • Love it, thanks!

  • Wow, I have been doing makeup 4yrs&worked for Estee&Clinique as artist&manager.I am constantly learning and now in my forties, I don't like the aging I see,now w/the help of U I have changed from watching ur vids.U r 1 of the only artist who truly address maturing women,please continue doing a fabulous job making us feel&look better~NEVER APOLOGIZE 2ANY NEGATIVE COMMENT ON THIS CHANNEL! No matter who I've watched I have read comments I won't say2my worst enemy,so many haters on U-tube,Thx W/<3!

  • @soccermom0134 *for many years, I was 20 when I started at the makeup counter and expanded into artist and free lancing~Can't wait till your next video:) xxoo

  • ...Thank you....

  • The more I watch your videos the better I become at doing my own makeup. Thanks for making me feel pretty again.

  • I'm surprised, because every time i've asked make up artists about how to make up hooded eyes, they've always said that I should NEVER apply the shadow underneath the eye, because my eye will look sadder...

  • WOW this is exactly what I was trying to find out..... now I can't wait to try it!!!!!!! Thank you!! =)

  • absolutely FANTABULOUS !!!!!!

    

  • I dont have a crease D:

  • very good

  • why are hooded eyes associated with "mature eyes"? I was born with hooded/deepset eyes so can you do some young looks for this eye shape please

  • @belovemay I was born with hooded eyes also. You're not alone. I don't know why it's always associated with mature eyes.....drives me bananas!

  • Goss, You should so more Asian eye tutorials!

  • can you make a smokey eyes ( evening) tutorial for hooded eyes? I love smokey eyes but it always look horrible on me. I dont know whether it is my pale skin or the hooded eyes. thx

  • Finally someone who said they were doing a hooded eye - and really did! Thank you.

  • Usually, I love your videos, but it scared the crap out of me when you grabbed her eyelid like that D:

  • that loose powder looks grey

  • at 1:54 she wiggles her ears

  • WOW!

  • Wow. I can't wait to do this on my mom! She loves for me to do her makeup but I always struggled with her folds and her overall small eye. She's going to love this! Thanks!

  • does mac coffee eye pencil smudge like the khol pencils??

  • Wow this is awesome! I'm not old but I have small asian eyes with hidden eyelids...I'm going to try this!

  • So nice to see a tutorial for someone older than 22... beautiful model and makeup.

  • scary :P 2:27

  • I love it!!! Thanks.

  • Awesome tutorial! Finally a good hooded eye tutorial on someone that actually has hooded eyes.I can't wait to try this. Mandy you're gorgeous!

  • That was amazing

  • This is very helpful!

  • THANKS, I have the same problem, now I know exactly how to do it right. Love the shot sweet to the point videos, keep it up. ;)

  • Amazing video and thanks. Was glad to hear that I don't have to stick to brown but is a color ok? I am a mature woman (great at 58) and like a little color - not the "clown" look for sure. Can I still use color on my eyes?

  • To mature women with hooded eyes, announcement: This works! I did it last night EXACTLY like Wayne showed, everything, didn't skip a step or try and substitute "my stuff"-- I did what he did, followed the tut, did my eyes in colours as close to what he did for Mandy's (my eyes are blue but same shape, and my lashes are so long they look fake, so that can be a bit troublesome), but FINALLY, it came together and I SEE what I was doing wrong. I can't believe I missed this, his tips, amazing!

  • This is exactly my eye! I never could get it right, but I am going to try it right away! What about false eyelashes would they help or harm the look?

  • Question: Why isn't light/shimmer used on the hooded lid to bring it forward? How is it that putting the darker matte colour on the drooped lid, as well as the crease, doesn't make the droopy lid recede even deeper, or disappear? I understand the shimmer in the inner corner, makes sense. But can you please explain how/why that doesn't happen. Mandy's as gorgeous as always! I'm confused thinking a lighter/brighter lid would "un-hood" it & dark on brow bone would recede for fake socket?

  • @Merrida100 A lighter shade would highlight the hooded eye and make it more noticeable. You want the crease to recede from you because it will draw more attention to the lid and inner corner, which you want. The part where it is hooded should be blended with a dark colour to blur the line and make it less noticeable.

  • @imsuchagenius12 That's what I thought I was getting at by using a light colour or shimmer on the eye lid, and a matte, darker colour on the brow bone. Isn't that what I'm doing there?--trying to make the non-existent eyelid look like it's coming forward with light colour, and "emphasizing" an artificial crease by using darker matte colours on the brow BONE. My lids droop so much the natural crease is practically resting on my lash line. I see this but am still confused.

  • @Merrida100 It depends. If you have an Asian eye, then your old technique may look alright. The main issue is that if you have an aged eye, shimmer colours in general are very difficult to pull off. They draw attention to the folds in the eye, making them more noticeable; an artificial crease just looks fake and obvious, usually. The trick with this sort of makeup is subtlety.

  • @imsuchagenius12 Thank you much, I appreciate all the input. My lids sag from age though I never had much of a true lid in my youth. I never do a "cut crease" - too old and I don't do photo shoots. I'm looking for natural and awake and bright. The shimmer I put on what little lid I had (some of which is covered by the sagging skin from the brow bone, if that makes sense?) I use matte brown at & above my socket hoping to receed it. It seems like the same thing, but I must be doing something wrong

  • @Merrida100 While what you were doing makes sense in theory, the technique shown in this video works much better. Shimmer is a "highlighter"-- putting it on features you don't want too much attention on is the reverse of what you want to do. Don't apply it to what little lid you have; that will make small lid space more noticeable. The inner corner is probably the only place you should place shimmer, since it almost always looks beautiful there. Always happy to help (:

  • @imsuchagenius12 Ahh okay, now I see what you're saying. I got some of the basic idea right, but conceptially I was doing it inaccurately. I get it now. I watch what Wayne does (and am forever amazed at his brilliance), and this tut is amazing. I've fave'd it and am working on practicing it (unlearning what I've been doing wrong, thinking I was doing it right, but never getting why it didn't work out). This is why I love Wayne and how he addresses these real life eye shapes some of us get.

  • @Merrida100 Got to love him <3 Haha. I'm happy to be of service, and I wish you the best luck in getting this make-up perfect and emphasizing your natural beauty. Good luck (:

  • Me too. Wayne, you can do no wrong. Everything you teach/show/share is spot on, informative and enlightening. I have hooded eyes and I've been doing my makeup all wrong. I shimmered the droopy lid and used matte on the bone only. I didn't think I could still line my waterlines (at my age). I've got to watch this several times to get it because the transformation was unbelievable! I never would have guessed those were the same eyes. Wayne you are a master! And PS: I simply ADORE Mandy videos!!

  • omg omg omg.... THANKS for that tutorial. AND I never ever saw such a  lash curler before. Because I have bad hooded eyes I keep buying and trying curlers but still cant find one that I can use with my "dropped" lid! THANKS

  • I will try this since I have hooded eyes. I always seem to put the lid color rite in the lid not going above the cease...thanks for the tip..love you wayne

  • Okay, the only thing I don't like about this video is how you pulled her eyelid up to tight line her lash line.. Easy with that!

  • @Aranel I noticed that as well but honestly I trust Wayne so completely that I truly believe he'd never do something to Mandy that would hurt her (or tear at her skin). It may look rough to us because (as an older woman I can attest to this), we have a lot more skin to pull upwards and it can sometimes "appear" to be a tad rougher than if performed on a younger lid. I would never doubt Wayne, question him or his tecniques or advice. He's proven himself so many times over to know what he's doing

  • Lovely. Thanks for the tips!

  • Seriously Wayne in my eyes you can do no wrong. Learnng new technique from what I was taught has allowed me to try so many new ways on clients and I'm loving it!

  • i have hooded eyes and my everyday makeup is the cat eye look and i was wondering, since i have hooded eyes is there a certain way i should do the cat eyes?

  • Wow her eye look much bigger :D well done

  • My eyes are hooded like mandy's but they are more deep set so my browbone ends more to the left/right than hers; I put the shadow up like you did and it looks a bit funny. :(

  • btw very very helpful video, you're always the best =))

  • I agree with a lot of you: I'm 21 and have hooded eyes. They've always been like that =) you don't have to be mature to have a hooded eye hehe

  • Thank you for this video! I have unusual 'monolid' asian eyes with no hood or crease- just a flat area between my eyebrows and eyes. Would you recommend using this technique for eyes like mine?

  • Thank you so much for this video! I am addicted to makeup and always want to try the looks that are shown on all the tutorials, but it seems as though they are by girls half my age and they have these beautiful,huge eyelids...which I don't : (  I love watching your videos and hope you continue to keep us over 40 makeup addicts in mind.

  • Her eye close up reminds me of Kris Jenner! :D

  • ...Did Mandy wiggle her ears?! :)

  • wtf!!!!!!!!!!

  • Thank you, thank you, thank you. Nearing 50 and with a hereditary factor of my brow sagging, I wanted to know how I was going to change my habits.  Good to know I am on the right road, but didn't have anything to tell/show me for sure!

  • HAHAHA love that she did the wink for you :D

  • what colour loose powder?

  • I am very grateful for your tutorials for the mature. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Keep up the good work.

  • @acaterino1 I have the same problem with smudging whenever I'm using Lancome waterproof eyeliner. That's why I resort to a liquid eyeliner (Lancome Artliner). So now, I'm also looking for a real waterproof or smudge-proof eyeliner. Gossmakeupartist mentioned Urban Decay and MUFE in his other video review on the Naked palette. Please let me know if you found a solution as well. Thanks!

  • @indayamor

    Avon Supershock eyeliner pencil and if you are in America then you can buy the new Maybelline Eye Studio Master Drama eyeliner pencil. That last one is not available in England unfortunately.

  • @lunabake I recently bought the MUFE Aqua eyeliner and it still smudges after 3 hours of wearing it. :( I will try the Maybelline product you recommended. Thanks a bunch!

  • great tutorial for women with hooded eyelids. Thank you :)

  • my eyes are this hooded and im only 14!!! please help whats wrong with my eyes???!!!!

  • @smilerachel996 hunny nothing is wrong with your eyes its just simply how your eye shape is.Mine have always been slighyly hooded & it bugged me when I was your age I'm 23 relax :)

  • you are the only guru on YT that i know that has done a how to for this feature! LOVE YOU FOR THAT!!!

  • thanks for this! =D

  • i looked at the description bar but didn't notice what kind and what color the inner corner hi light was. Please let me know, i really want to recreate this look to a T. Thanks... so glad i found your channel.

  • thumbs up for this short Movie

  • Fantastic! i see so many tutorials featuring these beautiful, young women with smooth skin. It's nice to see one with beautiful older women and how you can transform them given the different skin texture. Thank you!!

  • Simply amazing !!!

  • how great is makeup i mean seriously the things it can do!

  • wow, this is the first hooded eye video i've seen that look exactly like my eyes, but i'm in my 20s and my eyes have always looked exactly like this. the other hooded eye videos (even the girls WITH hooded eyes) don't look nearly as much like my eyes. i have the wrinkles and extra skin plus the hood.. apparently i have mature eyes. :P anyway, very helpful!!

  • Wonderful video! You have lifted my spirits tonight. Thank you : )

  • Great video! I have been watching many many vids before finding yours. Finally someone who do a make up for hooded ayes using real hooded eyes! The trick of keeping the eye open while putting the dark shade is very helpuful. Thanks from Italy!

  • I really appreciate all of your videos, you are great!

    Can you do a winged eyeliner on hooded eyes? I have very hooded eyes and cannot make it look right.

  • I love this video! Thank you and Mandy.

  • My eyes are like that and i have some troubles to makeup! Thanks to do this for us... 

  • that's was just what i needed to see. thanks

  • Thanks for that video:)

  • awesome

    

  • hi wayne. can u do another hooded eye tutorial but using 2 colors of eye shadow? truly appreciate it!

  • Could you please do a deep set eye tutorial!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!

  • very nice info.:))

  • I've never seen that mini Shu uemura eyelash curler before!

    Is that better to use on a hooded eye than a full size one?

    It actually looks easier to use!

  • Thank you so much for taking the time to make this tutorial. The eye was completely transformed. I am also trying to figure out how to do my own makeup and this was helpful. The only thing I would have liked is to see the woman's entire face after the makeup was done. I am sure it would have been stunning.

  • Thank you so much for this video. I'm 34 and noticed my eyelids are drooping a little, so thank you for educating us older gals how to adjust our makeup techniques. It's so difficult to watch these young 20 yr olds doing makeup tutorials that only apply to them. A big thank you.

  • Can you PLEASE PLEASE do a look on people who naturally have hooded eyes?? Like younger teenage girls because you said it was different...

  • Really good. Thanks for the tip

  • Comment removed

  • I have recently subscribed to your videos and love them! Of all eyeshadow application videos this one has helped me greatly with my own makeup. Thanks so much for your expertise. BTW, forget those people who criticize you! You help so many other people!

  • i'm 15 and have one hooded eye and one normal, my eye makeup always looks wonky :/

  • @LemonFlutters121

    OMG so do I, except one is asian (no crease) and one is hooded!

  • I'm so glad you've covered 'hooded eyes'. I'm only 32, but I've got hooded eyes and feel a bit lost as to what to do! Love your vids! x

  • THANK YOU!! i am also at "that age"... it helped so much... but i DO wish you would have shown her further away to get the whole effect... BEAUTIFUL from what i could see though!

  • love my teacher... YOU! n I love mandy too :)

  • Thanks so much! I learned a lot. I'm 50 and I really appreciate a non-teenage makeup lesson :-) Love your videos.

  • wow what a difference. great job. very helpful thanks

  • Fantastic Tutorial! When I went to makeup school almost 10 years ago in California, we had to bring models for our "test outs" every week. I would ALWAYS bring in my mature mother or her friends to practice on....IF you can make a wonderful mature lady beautiful with makeup application techniques, then you can make anyone beautiful. I always advise practicing on our mature friends to get your artistry on point!

    Thanks Wayne!

  • I did post last night about great the tutorial was but today I tried the technique. It worked!!!!! I cant believe it. Seriously, after months, even years of trying to perfect this, it worked first time. Thanks for your great video

  • Yes, by you saying 'directly in the middle" helps me greatly!! I tend to put the shadow to far over to the side. Maybe, your blender brush is more pointed than mine. I might try my pencil brush to acheive this look. Thanks!

  • Thank so much Wayne ! I am over 40 with one hooded eye & would love to apply eyeshadow but never know how to go about it . I usually just do a wash. I will now give your technique a go. XXXX

  • THIS WAS SO HELPFUL. i never do my mom's eye makeup because i never knew how to work with hooded eyes.

  • So, so helpful, as your videos always are. Thank you!!

  • Yay, it's Mandy! My favorite model of all time. :)

  • This is the FIRTS video that i see in you tube for a mature eyes I LOVE IT! thanks

  • GREAT TUTORIAL!!! I think you are the most talented out of aaaall the make up gurus!

  • Glad to see you've deleted the begrudgers Wayne. It's actually a sign of your growing popularity when the losers are attracted to your channel and try to do you down. There's lots of weirdos out there who hate good, successful people. Look what they did to the parents of Madeleine McCann and are now trying to do to people connected with Joanna Yeates. Ignore them, block them, delete their posts and keep doing the fantastic stuff you're doing. We love ya!!!

  • im 22 and have hooded eyes kinda like Blake Liively(gossip girl) but larger and this tutorial is so helpful as I dont wear dramatic eyeshadow looks but want to try. Great job as always!

  • Love the look you gave Mandy. I have the same problem. I have been using your brown crease technique for a while now and it sure helps me out. Thank you so much! xoxo :) Carla

  • wow, what a difference! very very helpful. :)

  • BEAUTIFUL! Will try this. Thanks for the tip!

  • Thanks for this tutorial, Wayne! I am in my 40's and one of my eyes is hooded (the other is getting that way too!). I love to wear eye shadow, so these tips are great. Thank you for doing tutorials and giving tips to those of us who are mature.

  • Great, but I wanted to see you and Mandy carry on that pleasant repartee!!!!!

  • I am 23 and have hooded eyes and this was a great help to me, thank you :)

  • Would you elaborate on the differences in hooded eye makeup for those of us blessed with almond eyes? My eyes are a nice shape, but my eyelid just disappears entirely, and I'm unsure what to do about it.

  • This is great -- so many sources say for older women not to use dark colors or try a dramatic eye look. Or they're filled with so many "don't" and no attention given to what to "do." For someone who enjoys having fun with their makeup, that advice is so boring.

  • Great job thanks for sharing!!!

  • i'll try this on my mom :) which eye pencil are you using? i'm looking for a good pencil to line the top waterline but that won't smudge too much onto the bottom one... could you help me? thanks!

  • thank you a lot Wayne. sometimes my mom asks me to do her make up and she's got hooded eyes - not as Mandy, though -, this will help a lot.

  • Terrific tutorial. Love Mandy's finished look - really does open up her eye! xoLiz

  • WAYNE!!!! How would this work on black women? I'm YOUNG with a natural hood & I NEVER do my eyes beyond mascara b/c of the hood. However, I'm medium brown & I don't think that darker colors on my eye will 'open' it. Help me out please because I really like the end result on you and from FaithersK's video. Thanks in advance if you do this on a black woman (I'll volunteer if you want). :-)

  • Comment removed

  • Love it, thanks Wayne... I always panic when a get an slightly older client... like when you do the bride's mother... thanx!

  • That was very good, Loved the new look of her eyes.

    Lauren

  • Mandy's eyes remind me of my Aunts eyes.

  • I have hooded eyelids (not mature) but i like how you only tightline because even with a thinner line of eyeliner that usally ends up being all you can see in my eye makeup well that and my crease color and it's kinda disappointing. 

  • wish i could press the "like" button a millions times

  • What a difference, it looks amazing.

  • Thanks for da tip!!:)

  • Looks awesome!  Love the "goss wink"

  • That was amazing. Thank you so much...I'll be using these techniques tomorrow.

  • This was amazing! Sadly enough I'm 20 and I have the same shape of eyes...what am I going to do at the age of 55? :)

  • First of all as a woman of a 'certain age' myself I certainly appreciate makeup artists on Youtube who actually use mature women in their 'mature makeup' tutorials. Secondly as a trainee makeup artist I am grateful you take the time out of your busy schedule to share what you know with integrity..this tutorial is excellent. Arohanui from NZ.

  • I was struggling about this tricky part when I do makeup on my Mom and I'm soooooooooo glad you came out with this detailed, helpful video. Now I know what was wrong in the way I used to do it. Thank you! :-)

  • Amazing! Hi mandy!!!

  • This was very helpful and I appreciate the tips you have given. I really like the colors that you used and find the coloring you used really allowed the eye to appear more open and awake rather than drab and low. The shadows casted a shadow on the eye in the right place and this is definitely a great tip for upcoming MUA's and people who share a hooded eye. Thanks again for all of your hard work and tips. I truly appreciate you. Blessings.

  • Wow what a difference, excellent use of make-up x

  • This is very helpful! Thank you!!!

  • maybe it's just me, but i think her eyes are so much more genial and alive before you put anything on. the loose powder gave her a grayish cast, like a corpse, and then the smokey eye made her seem more tired and made her wrinkles stand out. the pulling at her eyes looked really painful too. i am young and i can't pull on my eyes like that without discomfort.

  • Again, another great video! I have hooded eyes (born with them) and I favorited this vid. Thank you! and don't listen to neg comments...you are awesome.

  • thanks so much for this video. it really helped heaps! im not mature but i do have hooded eyes. Thanks again!

  • Great job!

    

  • Wayne you did a great job as you usually do, please ignore all those people who feel the need to leave negative comments. It is just pure jealousy of your great work. Keep your chin up, your a fantastic MUA and I love watching your tutorials! Look forward to seeing you at IMATS at the end of the month :) x

  • I really like these express eye tutorials as I find I can recall the techniques much easier. I already knew that dark colours push back and light colours bring forward but I could readily see in this video you are using this technique to create an artificial crease which lifts the eye. Great stuff and I don't even have an hooded mature eye. :)

  • It would never occur to me that you would stoop to tricks such as lifting Mandy's brow with your finger. I've watched the end several times, and her brow is raised when she winks, but you can see that it goes back to it's normal position on it's own !!

  • Amazing work!!!

  • I was born with natural hooded eyes. I have Asiatic features but I am part Native American I love to accentuate them instead. Will you do a tutorial on accentuating hoods because I much prefer it to having a crease or lack there of.

  • Amazing job. As a woman who is in her 30s, I am so happy to see you doing makeup on mature women. My eye is developing a hood and it does change how I apply my eyeshadow. Lots of people ignore this group.

    PS I know that you did not hold up her brow, you are just an amazing makeup artist that knows how to make eyes pop.

  • Thanks for doing this video, it's really helpful!! Please don't listen to the negative people. Your honesty shines through in your videos. Looking through the comments, most of us see this. You offer a unique viewpoint and I'm thankful.

  • Thank you! Thank you! Women in an "older" age group often get left out in matters of makeup/fashion. I use this application technique and it does look good! This is also an application that goes pretty quickly (once you practice a little).

  • I have eyes like mandy's and all you said really does help my eyes look bigger and stand out more! :D

  • I use this technique often for my hooded eyes but I'm asian. Please visit my channel when you can:) I would highly appreciate it!
