Hey awesome ones, Heather here and today I'm going to do a revamped video get it?
"Vamped", anyway yeah, I'm gonna do a revamped video on one of, well it was
actually my very first video I ever did and it was on hooded eyes ,downturned
eyes, droopy eyes but this one is going to be even better. I've learned a lot
since my very first video and I'm going to show it to you in just a minute...
So the hooded eye video that I did a long time ago, hey thank you for watching,
it I had thousands and actually hundreds of thousands of views on it but looking
back... Bill what do you think? I mean it was good but we we decided to be
creative with it with whistling music and a lot of you couldn't even go through the
whole video because all this whistling music was going on and some of you just
turned it off because it drove you crazy and we're so sorry about that, so no music in this
video whatsoever. Okay you'll actually be able to hear me,
what else was on that video, well you know I did a purple eye shadow... I'm
thinking back, you know purple isn't always people's favorite color
so this one I'm going to do a brown. I hope this will be your go-to hooded eyes
video and let's get started on it. So as many of you know I'm 62 years old now and I
was a former 80s model, so what I'm trying to do here, here let me just show
you something... I have a picture let me see if I can get it close, here a picture
of me when I was modeling, oh my gosh that was probably over 30 years ago and
what happened... oh my gosh you can see that my bright eyes that were upturned
are now hooded, they're also a little bit droopy, downturned and I'm going to try
to get as close to this picture as I can in this video with the magic of makeup
and you know what, this video is not just for women over 50 if you're in your 20s,
if you're in your 30s ,if you're in your 40s or 50 and above and you've got those
hooded, downturned, droopy eyes I'm hoping that a little magic of makeup will help
you with this, so I'm going to do a daytime makeup today and on my eyes and
so I'm not going to do that smokey kind of look or anything like that, also for
the sake of time I've already put on my foundation
and I've got some really nasty dark spots that have shown up in my
maturity so I've covered up the dark spots with concealer and if you want to
see how I did that I will put a link up for the foundation video and concealer
video that I did for you. Okay for the sake of time I'm only going to do one
eye but at the end of the video I'll do both so you can take a look at it. So
let's get started. I have here a white pencil it's an eyeliner pencil and what
I want to do because my eyes are down turned I want to open them up a little
bit so what I'm going to do make sure the the pencil part is really clean by
the way. I always clean mine off before I use it and I do a little line here, there
we go, yeah just like that to help open up the eyes... oh and by the way a lot of
you have been asking for the products so what I'm going to do in the first
comment I'm going to go ahead and link in my blog to these products so you can
see them and if you do end up getting them we do make a little bit of
commission on that and it really helps us they keep going on these videos and
get them out to you so thank you very much for that! Alright so next is
eyeliner time and I'm going to use in this particular case, a black eyeliner
pencil, sometimes I use a navy blue, sometimes I also use a brown. I know some
of you might think this is a little harsh
but watch what I'm going to do with it, what I'm going to do is it's very, very
sharp I've made sure that I sharpen the pencil so I want a thin, a line here and
the way that I get it, hopefully you can see this okay
is just by dabbing along see how thin that's coming along here, so I just want
to dab it along
there's a little bit, it's a little up here so hold on, even with the dabbing
you want to want to make sure that you still have a straight line, so yeah there
you go I'm just gonna actually again touch it up here mm-hmm
that looks a little more natural and once we have the mascara on it's going
to look, it should look pretty well perfect. Okay for this application I know
the last time I did purple but I'm going to be using browns in this, a lot more
people would use browns than purple so, and I found this fabulous palette of
colors and I will link it back at my blog, so first of all what we're going to
do is we're just going to do a little bit of brightness a little bit of
highlighting so I'm going to use this beige here I always try also not to get
something that's too shimmery because it just doesn't look natural and what I
like about this one is it's not too shimmery so what we're going to do is
we're just going to, this has got a sponge applicator with it, and I'm just
going to put it here, can you see that, there on my lid you just sort of, sorry
if I'm blocking it a little bit, with the the makeup mirror but you can see how
that's already starting to open up the eye. Now the other thing that I'm going
to do is just along the brow bone here I want to put a little bit of shimmer too
because that's bringing the eye up, the eyelid is also opening up the eye and
that's what we are we want to do and you can almost start to see there's a little
bit of a difference between the two eyes already
Now let's talk about the brows a little bit, as you can see I have already done
my brows and again for the sake of time, I did a whole video on that... I'll link it
up somewhere there so you can see how I applied it but for my brows. I've moved
the eye upward so really made sure that I had a little bit
of an upward turn on both brows and also I used either a wax or clear mascara to
brush the hairs up and again we want it, we want people seeing us to see sort of see
an upturn to our eyes and this certainly, certainly helps, so let's really get into
turning those downturned eyes and as most of you know I don't like needles.
I've never had needles or any of those sort of things done to my face and I'm
not going to do them. I decided I just want to be natural and use the magic of
makeup and no surgery or anything like that... but let's get back to this palette
that I have here and we're going to start on really working with the eye
shadow. Now what I love about this palette and I hope Bill can see that
there, is there's all different kinds of brown colors of browns, so what I want
to do is use a brush like this, this did not come with the palette, this is a
brush that I like and I'm going to go with the lighter brown here, all right if
you go too dark with the brown, kind of looks like you know somebody... I don't
know, and it just it looks off. So we want to have it more natural more lighter so
what I'm going to do is, I'm just going to start around the middle up here so
we're just going to start about the middle here and I'm going to move it out
to my natural, see how that's kind of naturally going out there okay so that's
what we're going to do now for blending you can certainly use a blending sponge
you could certainly use a cotton swab or something like that for me I got ten of
these things and I find these are the best blenders so let me just start doing
a little bit of blending here because obviously that just doesn't look natural.
So I'm going to start bringing that out a little bit
there we go, now the other thing I want to do, remember this pencil this eyeliner
pencil that I had now that I'm bringing this up I want to do a gentle, maybe Bill
can do a close-up of this a gentle little, yeah there you go
a gentle little swoosh up, not too much we don't want to look fake or anything
or a cat eye-ed or any of those sort of thing but once we get the mascara this
will blend in and again you can probably tell by the two eyes we're really
starting to make something happen here. Okay so the next step it takes a little
bit of practice and hey if you're somebody who hasn't worn makeup for a
long time or maybe you're just getting into wearing makeup you can just leave
it with this amount of eye shadow or maybe even you wanted to put this on a
little bit less what we want to do is open the eye but if you put too much on
and you haven't really practiced it, it really can look off. So I'm using this
palette again but this time I'm using an angled brush like this and I'm going to
go for the darkest shadow that they have in the brown, there, and what I want to do
now is I want to sort of go into the crease of the eye so you see this part
here when I did the lid I bought shimmer up and what I want to do is sort of like
make the eyes a little bit more hollow because they are hooded so we're just
going to go into the crease
like that and again you're starting to see the difference. Okay so it's mascara
time and watch this I'm not pumping the mascara like I did in the last video! A
lot of you people told me that if you pump the mascara, which I don't know, like
it's just old habits die hard I guess but you're putting air into the mascara
and it's going to dry out faster so we don't want that. Thank you very much for
those comments I love the constructive comments like
that. So let's put on the mascara, what I'm going to do, oh by the way, this
mascara, I've been using this for a long time it goes on like a dream I usually
put about two or three coats of it but also it doesn't smudge at least it
doesn't for me and at night time it washes off so easily. I just love it and of
course it'll be in my blog but we're just going to carefully brush up the eye
lashes not going to clump on any mascara we're just going to brush him up like
that and I'm going to come back and do another coat and probably about a minute
or two now for under the eye we're not going to use a pencil, sometimes that's
really harsh and so I'm going to use a brush like this it's kind of a broad
brush but it's also a little bit thin too so if that makes any sense, going
back to this palette here and again we're going to go with the darker brown
and I am going to put that underneath my eyes. All right so let's just do that, I'm
going to keep also in line with the swoosh here so you don't put it
downwards, you want the eye upwards so here we go
don't put too much on your brush or else it smudges underneath which I did get a
little bit underneath, there so well if we make mistakes we can show you how to
fix them - how's that, all right so I'm just gonna wipe that off a little bit
because I want it to look a little more natural now I'm also going to put some
mascara on it and not a lot on your lower brows. Alright we want our brows, oops
eyelashes, it's just a little bit under here and I'm only going to put
about one coat on the lower. All right this is, I got my mascara I can do
another coat on the upper at this point.
Now the other thing I want to do is, remember this pencil this eyeliner
pencil, now we want to match with a swoosh a little bit, remember that little
swish that we did there, we want to do a little match here. I find this is a
really pretty technique. Okay so for one of the last things that I do I use this
little tiny teeny brush and some highlighter and what I do is, I want to
put the sparkle in my eyes, between my eyes, anyway so what I do is I
just put a little bit of sparkle, you see how that looks, it's very sparkly and
pretty... um the twinkle in our eyes, anyway just a
little bit here, not a lot and I might blend it a little bit but you can really
tell that that opens up the eye. So one more mascara application, here we go, not
pumping the mascara, oh um this time you know that little globby thing that's
at the end, I want to say that globby part for if globby is a word, for the end.
I'm going to, just these little lashes here, I'm going to brush them up with a
globby part because it really brings them out and I'm
not wearing false eyelashes or anything so let me just do the rest of the coat
here, keeping them very defined and you know what I think, we're ready to see
that other picture again. So there you have it, we have, you can see the
difference with the magic of makeup, this eye I have makeup on it, as far as
foundation and I've covered up my spots and everything but it definitely looks
more downturned, more hooded with this eye over here, it's it seems to be alive
it seems to be more youthful and hey isn't that what we're trying to do here
So let's bring my former 1980s self into the picture and see how close, there is
me before and there I am with the 30 year old aged eye but with the magic of
makeup. Hey I'm not gonna bring back me 30 years ago but I think we did a good
job, okay so this is a natural kind of look for your eye and if you wanted to
go to an evening party kind of thing you could always do a smoky eye and yes I
did a video on smoky eye so I'll put it up there somewhere. So you can do that
smoldering smoky eye oo la la. Okay so if you know these videos you know it's time
for the cuteness factor that's Hurricane, okay, alright, yes he loves me calling him
the cuteness factor and I hope he brings a smile to your face, and by the way
