I think it looks nice just blend it more so it won't look to harsh but your eyes are soo beautiful!

I personally am not a fan of red on the eye tried it a couple of times and it seemed like I was punched on the face, but maybe pairing it with a deep purple or a soft pink and an intense black liner could do the trick, soften the look of the red shadow and keeping it less harsh. also applying it on the upper side of the crease will work better...

I'm not a huge fan unless its very bright (with a white base under it or something). If its too soft it looks odd in my opinion

I think it's COOL actually, like Japanese Women do their traditional make up...Recently, I have some thoughts to do the same too, but I am going to use red on my eye line, like an eyeliner, but thicker...^^

It doesn't even look bad, I don't know why people are saying yeah it's the way you applied it, you didn't apply it badly at all! I think it looks nice and brings out your eye colour. I love red eyeshadow. It can look bad, yes, but in this case I don't think it does at all. I'm surprised everyone has said that.x

Yes I agree with you. There are so many examples of how it looks good! I just didn't know what I was doing. I will try something different with red soon. Thanks ladies!

It's all about how it's applied. Usually doing a thicker dark liner works, it creates a barrier between the red and your eye, keeps it from looking odd. But if it's paired with the right colors it works.
