Just keep practicing and the most important part is blend blend blend!! Try not to start off with super dark colors because it is harder to take off than it is to build up color. Good luck!:) I'm sure you will get it in no time.

Just look for YouTube videos on line n it helps to know your eye shape cut crease is extremely difficult for hooded eye gals like me because there is no natural crease to help guide you - so just look on YouTube for cut crease tutorial for your specific eye shape.

I really don't recommend many YouTube videos, because lots of times they give out false information. The youtubers I watch now are: Jordan Liberty, Jefree Star, Chrisspy, and Billy B...

Anyway a cut crease is a very bold look. if you think about it it is almost self explanatoryas well. You simply cut your crease using a shadow that contrasts well against the color on your lid. From your cut/line your color normally has a smooth well blended transition into a lighter color as it gets higher up on your eye. For more information or a more detailed description I would ask one of the mods, but basically remember that it needs to be clean and defined, as well as fitting to your eye shape.

Here is an example of one of my cut creases.
