Hooded eyelids are probably the most asked about Eyelid Type.
A hooded eyelid is when the crease area of the eyelid appears to be almost folded sometimes down to the bottom portion of the eyelid or the fold can land anywhere below the brow bone.

For an everyday look for hooded eyelids get a light shade of eyeliner
Draw a thick line on your eyelid behind the lash line with this light shade of eyeliner
When picking this color choose something that goes with your skin tone
Once you have drawn the line you can set it and blend it in a bit with a matching eyeshadow
But it's not necessary
Then put a very thin line of a much darker eyeliner( dark brown,black, navy,gray) behind the lash line
Curl eyelashes if time allows you
Add Mascara

Finding the Crease
Finding the crease can be difficult.
All you have to do is put your index finger under your eyebrow
Tap the bone that is your brow bone
Feel down to where the brow bone stops
That is where you can place your eyeshadow crease

You can also feel where the top of your eyeball stops
This technique is also effective when trying to figure out where your crease is
Creating the Crease
Apply a medium shade of eyeshadow with a fluffy brush along the crease area
Using a fluffy eyeshadow brush
Then using a tighter eyeshadow brush like a pencil eyeshadow brush,
Use a dark eyeshadow and apply it within the medium shade in a thin line almost.
Then when you blend your crease out you have created an illusion of a more natural looking
crease.

  • You're the best! Great advice :)

  • @irismadi I love you! You are so sweet! xoxoxo

  • PLEASE LOOK AT MY CHANEL AND TELL ME WHAT EYELID I HAVE. MY EYES ARE SO ROUND I DONT KNOW HOW TO CAT EYE THEM :(

  • @LAMSCHICK0104 You have big, beautiful, down turned eyes, with plenty of lid space for eyeshadow.

    i will have a tutorial on how to do eyeliner on down turned eyes?

  • I've stopped using eyeliner because my lids are so creppy that the line is very bumpy.

  • @gwillysgram If you use eyeshadow with an angle brush the eyeshadow wil come out smooth just tap the angle brush in a deep shade of eyeshadow then gently lift your bottom lid using your left index finger( if you are right handed if not use your right index finger) placed right above the top of your eyeball, then apply the eyeshadow behind the lash line. You may get some eyeshadow fall out the first few times you do this so just remember to check for that! Let me know if this helps! <3
