Try concentrating the dark colored shadow on the outer part of your eye.. Go with a lighter shade on your inner lid. Also, maybe use a eye shadow primer, like Glitter Glue by Too Faced, which will help with fallout and makes your shadow stay a lot longer without any creasing. The best thing to do when blending is to use a clean brush as to not add color when you don't want it.

Thank you. I've always wanted smokey eyes but never had the confidence to do them. My outer eye feels sore from all the blending. To be honest I kinda got lost in the whole thing lol. Thank you again. Xx

Like Andrea said..darker for the crease and lighter on the lid. You might also want to try less shimmer to practice with..and highlight your inner corner! You have lovely eyes and the mascara/liner look great. Practice is key! :)

The naked basics would be a good palette to practice with. The neutral shades are all matte and perfect for blue eyes. IMO urban decay shadows are some of the easiest to blend.

Too much shimmer girl. Try a matte for the base so you don't have shimmer going up to your eyebrows.

Glad we could help! And I agree with Maggie M, Urban Decay is one of the best eyeshadow brands available. I have 24 single shades from them and 6 or 7 palettes. Obsessed..? Maybe a bit =) I just really love the smooth texture of their shadows. If the all Matte palette of Naked Basics scares you, try the Naked or Naked 2 Palette which have mattes, shimmer, and satin finishes so you can try out different looks. What are you using for brushes right now?

Watch YouTube tutorials. Just do exactly what the gurus do.

Just blend the outer corner a little more with a clean fluffy crease brush and I recommend a matte off white highlight on the brow bone instead of a glittery one 😊
