I love my eye makeup, I wear all colours and types of shadows, liners, glitters and foils. I'd love to see your favourite looks, products colours and skills.
I'm 44 and a novice, I went with green and pink today for spring. I used a finding nemo revolution pallette I got as a christmas gift for the pink, a poison ivy revolution cream shadow stick&foil for the green, ted baker mascara from a set and glitter eyeliner from amazon, which was also a gift.

@ChishiyaBat that looks pretty 😊do you have any cheap but good eye shadow palette recommendations? I want a fairly neutral cool tone brown or taupe colour at least or even some rose gold sort of colours.

Revolution is your friend @itsmeagainagain I have had loads of pallettes from there as gifts and boight in the sale myself and I have no problem with any of them, they last all day, are pigmented and most importantly cheap. I'll see what I can find on there in the colours you are after.

@itsmeagainagain There are loads on there, these 3 look nice, I would avoid the ones that look like chocolate
bars, I had one of those and it wasn't great, but that is literally the only thing i've ever had from there that wasn't good.

Pink and green are fab together! Decades ago (I am older than you!) an Aunt got me an eyeshadow palette from Yardley called Soul Shimmers. 6 or 8 in a circle from green to pink, lavender etc etc. Such pretty colours and I often went for the pink and green!

I keep hearing about Revolution! I must take a look. Most eye shadows are on the brown / beige palette these days I find. I like blues and purples and lilacs and greys etc. I shall take a look 😀

Which I have now done. Alot of the Revolution palettes are browny-beige-pink which doesn’t really suit me. But there are a couple of brighter ones. Not dark enough perhaps for me, I’m thinking. But very reasonable price.

Look at the collab pallettes they are usually the best, loads of bright and dark ones.

They really are, I also love purple and yellow or gold or purple and orange together too. That pallette sounds lovely too!

Eyeliner is a versatile makeup tool that can enhance any eye shape, offering a range of looks from subtle to dramatic. For a classic style, a thin winged liner adds definition, while a smudged smoky effect creates a sultry vibe. Graphic liners, like floating crease designs, offer a bold, modern twist. Those with hooded eyes can benefit from techniques like the bat-wing liner, which extends the wing outward to prevent it from disappearing when the eyes are open. Tightlining the upper waterline helps define hooded eyes without taking up precious lid space. A puppy liner—where the wing curves slightly downward—softens the look for hooded eyes. Matte finishes work best to avoid emphasizing folds, while shimmer can be added to the inner corners for brightness. The "straight-line" technique, where the liner is drawn straight across rather than curved, also flatters hooded eyes. Experimenting with different shapes, like tapered or double wings, can customize the look. Ultimately, the right hooded eyes eyeliner technique can lift, define, and accentuate hooded eyes beautifully.

I don't wear makeup but I bought a palette for my DD from here. Not sure how good they are but the reviews seem positive.
