Yes I have the same problem hooded eyes :( I had to find another way to create looks because it didn't show. What I do is to fill above the crease near the eyebrow but blend it a lot I don't know if you get me you have a lot of tutorials for our kind

Your eyes are hooded and trust me you could still do a lot for your eyeshape. I have no lid space in my eyes so I have to create a fake lid everytime I do make up. my advice it to take everything higher than the usual, esp. eyeliner, create a thick line so if you open your eyes, the liner will comsume the overlap. also for eyeshadow you can do a smokey look. this technique is ok for hooded eyes since you fill the eyeshadow up to your brow bone. hope this helps.

@alma/symone. good cause I didn't like that term.. but it is a very different to apply makeup too.. it took me awhile to get my friends hooded eyes right. with no training. I just kept messing around until it looked right. that was forever ago.. thanks for the new term I can use now. ;-)
