I really need help blending my eyeshadow! Everytime I try it, it just looks like the colors are all piled on top of each other. Any advice would be great! (:

You could also dip the brush into a bit of translucent powder to help blend smoothly.

You lightly fade it in on the very last end of the shadow color a blend outward keep blending until it gets to the point where you want it.you can do circular motions or window wiper motions. sometimes you don't need loads of different colors to make it work.

Oh and that is a color chart just to give you an idea of colors in the same group and across from each other are the ones that work hand and hand not a great color chart but it's the one I have on hand haha.

Notice how the black and white are separate! Because they work well with all colors I think blending is a BIG PART! but so is understanding colors :) sorry about the long message lol.
