Do you put a little bit n try and blend it as far as you can or what? I have no clue.. My Smokey eyes are always really dark and I want to try a lighter Smokey eye. I just need some blending tip in general though, I only have 5 brushes, other than that I don't have and tools.

Alright if you tend to have a dark smokey eye then you want take a little bit of light grey shade using the brush 2nd to last on the right sweep it lightly on wear you want to be lighter then dirt brush to make it blend with the darker color.

Also I have trouble with rounded eye shadow. I always end up having to do cat eyes with it because I can't get my eye shadow on in a rounded shape, it can only do it edgy, if that makes sense?

Blend with a brush with nothing on it.

Makes perfect sense, use the brush to the very right, and get the lightest color you have yet still visible on your skin, and go from the middle of your brow bone and draw an oval to the corner of your eye, does that help.

Kaitlyn s. I have the same problem :(, I don't want to do smokey eyes anymore sick of it going too dark everytime maybe its because I don't have good brushes.

Easy to remember...dark color is in the crease...use a neutral or color...on lid...maybe a golden shimmer n the corner of your eye...and a shimmer on brow bone...hopefully the pic helps a lil.

Thank you so much Chn! that's amazing we have the same eye shape lol and the same brush set, that's awesome =] I have pictures of different eye makeup looks but my phone doesn't have flash so it doesn't look the same as in person. I'm also growing in my eye brows and I can tell they are improving by looking at the pictures compared to now lol.
