This is a FANTASTIC video! I’ve had hooded, down-turned eyes my whole life. Now that I’m 53, you can imagine how much more pronounced the hood and especially the down-turn has become! My favorite part is the very end since I have one eye noticeably smaller than the other. I finally know the best way to compensate for it! THANK YOU! I hit that subscribe button in record time and updated “notifications” to all!
I love how you teach it's detailed while youre in action unlike other vloggers that talk half on their vids it bores me I love how you teach really got my attention
I agree this is probably the best tutorial I’ve seen for my eye shape. I love how each step is explained so clearly with emphasis on detail. So important and just what I needed to actually get it. Thank you! The penny has dropped!
Thank you for the clear instructions for lifting hooded, downturned eyes which I have in spades. My eyes are big, but very downturned as I age. I’ve been wearing makeup for 50 years and am pretty tried and true in terms of application. A recent photograph reminded me I need to tweak my eye makeup. Really appreciate the thorough explanation of product application and brushes used. New subscriber.
This was a game changer - I didn’t wear eye make up for the last twenty years because of my creases and sunken eyes. This is the best step by step advice I have ever seen... thank you so much!!!!
Elle, this is absolutely one of the BEST tutorials on this. Really appreciate your expertise and help! This tutorial is a KEEPER - we can watch this one over and over....it really does help the look of the downturned eye! Thanks.
Elle, this is the best video I have viewed for hooded eyes! I’m a Senior Citizen, your instructions really helped. I must have viewed at least 50 videos on this subject, you are best! I also like that you don’t drag out your videos to an hour, with the others reaching an hour, I lose patience and log off. I’m so glad I found you, plus you’re beautiful! Be well, JoAnn
Agreed! This was the most helpful tutorial I have watched! I’ve been struggling with my eyelids becoming more hooded the last few years and how to make my eyeshadow actually look good haha. I’m going to try this tomorrow!
No one, and I mean NO ONE, explains and demonstrates like you do. This is the real makeup tutorial. You have no idea how much I appreciate your videos. Thank you love. 💕💕
I can't tell you how thankful I am that you speak and explain definately and detailed! THANK YOU for not babbling on and on like so many do. They waste so much time babbling on "why they said or did this" or just talking about themselves far too much! You get straight to business and I THANK YOU!!!
I love how you explain the whole process from start to finish. Just one thing. Could you please zoom in more on your eyes when you are applying the products? That would be so helpful. Thank you for sharing!
Finally, there’s someone who is totally professional( not narcissistic) and explains the techniques clearly and precisely! Thank you for that, I’m already a big fan!
As I am a "mature" woman with aging eyes/lids, I am finding it more and more difficult to apply my life-long makeup methods that used to look great! :-/ Thank you so very much for your thorough, articulate and precise tutorials. This one, especially, was far and away MUCH better than all the other eye makeup videos I have watched lately! Thank you again! 💖
I literally subscribed a few months ago based on this exact eye technique. I'll be 42 in 2 days, and I swear by this method now. Ladies....it really works, makes my eyes look lifted and young.
I know I'm late to the game on this video. I have never commented on a makeup tutorial (though I've watched a ton), but I want you to know this is, by far, the best tutorial for eyeshadow for hooded eyes I've ever come across. I've always had hooded eyes, but at 51 well ... you know, time does it's thing. Your tip on placing your finger to keep the skin from moving so much (as simple as that seems) made such a difference as it's really been a struggle for the past few years. When my husband came home tonight he said "Wow. You look great!" Had to be the eyes! Thank you, thank you, Elle :)
This was an amazing video! You make it look so effortless and I LOVE the fabulous tips and tricks! You're very good at explaining the process and actually demonstrating how to make your hooded eyes look so natural. I will watch this video again and again until I get my eyes looking just like yours! Thank you so much for the inspiration. You made my day:)
Best straight forward eye shadow tutorial that I’ve seen so far, and what I appreciated the most is that she left excess shadow on her face while she was completing the video; I always felt that I was doing it wrong because my upper cheeks were messy.
I absolutely love the way you explain how to use each product each time each step. I'm so glad I found your videos! I've been doing my makeup wrong and these videos explain why. I wore makeup years ago and I'm out of practice but not to different then the way you teach for the ageing eyes. Thank you so much Elle!
This is by far the BEST tutorial for hooded eyes I've seen!! And I've seen tons of them. Very well explained, and not a bunch of unnecessary talking, lol. ( so many other videos go on and on and on before getting to the tutorial) Thanks for the video!!
I stumbled across this video and have to say it is, by far, one of the best I have seen with such descriptive detail. I have somewhat hooded eyes and its hard to shape the crease, so I really appreciate this. Thank you so much.
I LOVED this tutorial! I can ACTUALLY UNDERSTAND AND FOLLOW ALONG! It was very easy to understand and after watching this I subscribed! Thanks so much for one of the BEST HOODED EYE TUTORIALS EVER! 😍👍
The correct way to hold and use the brush is what I like about your video the most. The tips are great for applying eye makeup too! I am an eye liner junkie. I think I will try the shadow using the brush as a liner on my eye instead of a pencil liner. You have inspired me to try this tomorrow. Thank you so much Elle!
I know this video is older, but I just found it! I did this step by step this morning, and my eyes look years younger and bigger and lifted! Thank you from a new subscriber ♥
@@ElleLearyArtistry just found this video on hooded eyes. I've seen a few but liked yours best. Especially about the one eye being bigger. I too have that and this is the first time I've ever seen a remidy for it. Thanks a bunch.
This was super helpful! "Follow the lower lash line". So simple. Also the "hold your finger, don't pull the skin". I've really struggled with this because my skin moves AND I get twitchy on my right eye
Thank you for being so precise and clear in your description. Something like the angle of the brush wouldn’t occur to me as being important, which as a makeup artist you are aware of and the way you communicated all of this was so helpful to me! I am so excited to try this!
This was SO helpful, Elle! My eyes looked great when I tried your "start at the under eye and follow the line up" trick! My old lady eyes got a lift, and I actually felt pretty! I had a presentation to make tonight and my makeup helped me feel more confident. PS - I rocked the presentation. ;) Thank you!
You and I (believe it or not!) are going to do my eyes your way first thing in the morning. New day......new me! I am 59 years of age and truly have NEVER been so taken by a make-up tutorial. I'll be able to follow you because you instruct clearly. This old girl will have prettier shaped eyes tomorrow and it will all be because of your guidance. Elle, you are a very pretty lady and NOT a plastic dolly bird. I'm going to learn from you. They do say that if you wish to learn, learn from the best. Many, many thanks Elle. You are my new tutor. Bless your heart. Love being sent from Scotland.
Fiiiiiiiinally someone who really explained , simply, how to fix the hooded eye ! Thank you soooo much! I will play this video as I apply the makeup! Thank you!
Elle, You’re such a natural teacher! You explain each step in a way that is easy to understand and do ourselves (with a bit of practice!). Love this look, so pretty & soft. Great look for every day as well as “steppin’ out”. Lots of love 💕 from us to you!
Elle, Today is the first time I saw your amazing teachings! I learned so much, I am 61 years old. I would love, if everyone could find out about you and learn new makeup tips. I can’t wait to check out your other teaching! Thank you so much for sharing what you do so well! Ladies see for yourself you won’t be sorry you did! XO
So glad I found you! 24 year veteran hairdresser and makeup enthusiast. I had a new client ask me for a sanitary makeup application for a wedding today. My brushes are clean, my products sanitizer and my hands are steadier now, thanks to you. I will be using your tips and instructions for keeping aging eyes youthful
Loved this Elle! Your tips are so easy to follow! I've been using (almost daily) the cream shadow tip that you recently shared.. now I'm going to try this one tomorrow! Thank you so much ❤❤
OMG.. best technique I've seen for the maturing hooded eyes. I actually have a similar technique that I've always used, since I started using makeup. Thanks again so much.. p.s.I love Morphe brushes too
I've watched so many hooded eye vids.... but yours is the BEST!!! Absolutely made a difference in the shape of my eye. Thank you for sharing your fab tips & tricks!!
Dude that’s awesome that you addressed the problems I always have, which is when people refer to the “outer v”, which on us hooded people doesn’t form a v, and also the asymmetrical issue, and even explained the pencil brush’s importance! Thanks!!
Be explanation on the internet! I have watched dozens of videos and your tips and explanation of how to do hooded eyes is by far the best I have seen. Thanks so much!
Omgoodness. So much to incorporate in my technique!!!! Thank you Elle. It’s so funny I have several pencil brushes but thought they were for eyeliner and my eyes are to small to use. Cannot Wait to do this exact eye tomorrow.! Several ah-hi moments. Bringing the white shadow on lower eye lash. Wow what a difference! This is totally a game changer for the crease and corner of my hooded eyes. And yes I have 1 eye smaller too! You are absolutely amazing and your teaching skills are so good that I think all that need to can totally change their hooded eyes to look fantastic like yours. Oh can’t wait!!! You’re the best EVER!!!!💕💕💕
Great video and easy to follow demonstrations! I remember years ago Raquel Welch talking about putting her lower eyeliner on first to use as a guide for the rest of her eye makeup. I’ve been doing it that way forever, but always felt like I was doing my eyes wrong. Now you made me feel better about how I’ve been doing it.
I realize this video is 4 years old but I just came across it & have to say it is the absolute BEST video with the best demonstration on how to apply eye color for a hooded eye! THANK YOU for taking the time of doing this demonstration!!!
Reminds me of Wayne Goss's "StraightLine Technique" Edited to add: This goes FAR BEYOND Wayne's technique and addresses the entire process of shading and lining the eyes, beginning to end. I especially appreciate you pointing out there's a difference between your eyes because I have a different also and I haven't yet ascertained what it is, but I'm still learning about it--- thank you SO much for this!! Wishing you much success in your new Salon, in Colorado!!!👍
I just want to seriously THANK YOU!!!! I love makeup and color. As I started getting old I noticed that how I wore makeup for years actually added years. I've been searching for a step to step way a 50 yr old can still wear color but in an eye popping way. I accidentally stumbled across you and I understood you and followed a long in my magnified mirror. When I was done I put my glasses on looked in a regular mirror and cried with relief. I did it with your help. I brought my hooded eye up. I have that pretty under brow highlight my eyes look awake. I seriously look younger. Not years but I got my big brown eyes back. Thank you again.
Great job of explaining EVERYTHING in DETAIL! You made it goof proof! I just subscribed because I have never seen anyone who takes such care to show the "how to's" like you do!
OMG!!! For a woman so much younger than some of us, you sure know how to explain tips in a simple manner!!! Thank you. I've watched a few makeup videos just to make my eyes stand out instead of droopy and your video is the one that made sense. I have droopy and hooded eyes. It is hard to hide the droopy, hooded look. You made it simple and easy!!!!! Thank you!!!!!
Thanks so much for this tutorial. At 57 I've got hooded, droopy eyes and definitely need these tips to lift. I need to get a bit more proficient with this technique, but can already see a difference. Definitely focusing on going UP, not OUT or DOWN with the shadow at the corner, and it works. Thanks so much. Love your videos. Cheerio from the UK
One of the BEST eye makeup tutorials I’ve seen on You Tube! So so thoroughly explained. Thank you !! Definitely subscribing and looking forward to more excellent videos like this. 👍
I've never been able to get my eye shadow to look nice. I have had hooded eyes all my life. I followed this step by step and I'm amazed!! Thank you so much! I'm a fan!
Elle, I have deep set aging eyes but the upper inner eyelid where you highlighted is now crepy on me. I tend to cover it with a darker shadow to hide it. I know that closes my eye but what else should I do?
Thanks elle once again you have made it very easy to understand how to lift the eye shape also i now know what to do in trying to get colour on that bit of skin where my eye hoods or folds that for me was a real ah ah moment, thank you for posting this how to vid
This technique is very similar to the one Wayne Goss just uploaded last week. You use different brushes and some other minor variations that are quite helpful (i.e., yours keeps the lid a little clearer and lighter. I love both videos and will be rewatching them while I practice.
Susan Thompson i was just thinking the same exact thing. Everthing almost exact.. his was about a week ago. I tried it a few days ago for work and it really helped me alot. I have hooded eyes as well.
Me too. Hooded and droopy on the ends and getting more so every year, lol. This technique is fabulous. I'm so much happier with the gradient I get, and that carefully drawn inner highlight with the dark liner is gorgeous.
Wow!! For an older woman like me, this deminstraion will help me so much!! I have a really hard time with control for using ANY liner and I've tried everything!. The tapping along the lid will be so much easier to control! Thank you!
Elle My Deepest Thanks and Eternal Gratitude is urs Forever!! I got Divorced at 32 andi wore makeup often (being a Server kinda have to) . So when I was able to finally REALLY learn how to Enhance my beauty I Had Not the SLIGHTEST clue as to what to do.. and YOU SAVED ME! I found u when trying to find any kinda HELP I could get and there u were. Beautiful, Friendly, So Informative, Entertaining, Reliable, and my Fairy GodMother teaching me , and so many around the world, how to create a New Me , subtly but completely! Thank u for ur help and know u have a Fan that u helped and continue to help every day?!! Keep it Up Woman! Your stunning and irreplaceable just being YOU! #TeamElleAlways
This is a great video for beginners or people with hooded eyes. I've really deepset hooded eyes and I'm 40 now but it's taken years to find a way that suits my particular eye shape. Mine are weird because they are slightly upturned but really deepset really hard to work with.Thank God with years of practice I've pretty much mastered it. It's an on going battle because they change as you age so you are constantly altering your eyeshadow technique. Well done this video will help a lot of people. I wish there had been youtube when I was 20...kids are so lucky to have amazing artists like you xxx
Loved the video but everytime I watch a video about hooded eyes, everyone always uses browns and earthy shades. Can you do one with bright colors please? PS..you are beautiful!
Yes please! I never wear brown because my eyes are hazel and brown makes them more brown, whereas purple pulls out the green. Brown is great for blue, green, or dark eyes, but brown makes my eyes look dull and tired.
@ Chrisa Mayhew, Same here! I'm 52 and never liked my blue eyes in neutrals (looked dull and muted). I love the light purple family - lavender and lilac.
I am in the same dreary boat. Now that I finally get how to really apply shadow...color is obviously the next step...but what colors??? I hate orange and purple on me. Blah!! So I just never know. Looking forward to something about this from this beautiful, patient, awesome girl also curious how to go from day to evening...would you follow this same premise and then what....I feel like my seven year old twin girls when I apply eye makeup. Doing it all wrong my entire life. No one to show me...my mother just caked on the blue shadow and black eye liner her entire life...lol...all I knew is I wasn't following...lol just loving in spite and adoring her confidence to do it and she actually felt wonderful about rocking this look.
This is the best tutorial I’ve watched. I actually feel like I might have a clue how to do more than a single lid shade on my small deep set and now aging eyes after 54 years!
I am going to try this tomorrow! I am a new subscriber, I have discovered a few of your videos in the past month or so. I have the "Lady Di"" hooded eyes, and now at nearly 55 years old I need all the tips I can get. I'm so excited to try your suggestions. You are gorgeous! Thanks SO much for sharing your expertise, Elle. :-)
Those who dislike it are idiots,they dont want to appreciate what other people do more good looking and good explaination in short,they're so envious people such disgusting.
Aaaagggghhhh! Finally! In depth, informative and I can actually use this to stop looking like I'm "asleep," " tired", "don't fell well", etc. I get this ALL the TIME because I continually misplace my shadows. I finally have the shades I need and ,after your video, the knowledge to have more opened eyes. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you 😊❤️
This is a FANTASTIC video! I’ve had hooded, down-turned eyes my whole life. Now that I’m 53, you can imagine how much more pronounced the hood and especially the down-turn has become! My favorite part is the very end since I have one eye noticeably smaller than the other. I finally know the best way to compensate for it! THANK YOU!

Glad it was helpful!
Best video I've seen so far. Clear explanation, not long, very natural look. Totally doable.

One of the most informative and best eyeshadow videos I have seen, ty
Reminds me of Wayne Goss's "StraightLine Technique"
Edited to add: This goes FAR BEYOND Wayne's technique and addresses the entire process of shading and lining the eyes, beginning to end. I especially appreciate you pointing out there's a difference between your eyes because I have a different also and I haven't yet ascertained what it is, but I'm still learning about it--- thank you SO much for this!! Wishing you much success in your new Salon, in Colorado!!!👍
❤️❤️❤️
I just want to seriously THANK YOU!!!! I love makeup and color. As I started getting old I noticed that how I wore makeup for years actually added years.
I've been searching for a step to step way a 50 yr old can still wear color but in an eye popping way. I accidentally stumbled across you and I understood you and followed a long in my magnified mirror. When I was done I put my glasses on looked in a regular mirror and cried with relief. I did it with your help. I brought my hooded eye up. I have that pretty under brow highlight my eyes look awake.
I seriously look younger. Not years but I got my big brown eyes back. Thank you again.
OMG my love!!! this has made my day xoxo
Thank you for this in depth demo!! When can you come and do my makeup!!🤣🤣 love you, you are the best and a natural beauty!!
Great job of explaining EVERYTHING in DETAIL! You made it goof proof! I just subscribed because I have never seen anyone who takes such care to show the "how to's" like you do!
You give the best tutorials! Thank you 💞🌻🌈🌟🧚♂️
This is totally the most perfect eye application I have ever seen. Thank you Elle!
Major "Aha" moments with having the correct tools for the job. Going shopping today!
I watch videos with tips like this all of the time and have never commented. Yours was the best, by far! Thank you a million times over!
What a great teacher you are....it's really hard to find a good pencil brush. I'm going to do this in the morning. Hugs Elle😘
OMG!!! For a woman so much younger than some of us, you sure know how to explain tips in a simple manner!!! Thank you. I've watched a few makeup videos just to make my eyes stand out instead of droopy and your video is the one that made sense. I have droopy and hooded eyes. It is hard to hide the droopy, hooded look. You made it simple and easy!!!!! Thank you!!!!!
thank you so much!
Absolutely brilliant, such helpful tips, thank you. Love from UK x
Thanks so much for this tutorial. At 57 I've got hooded, droopy eyes and definitely need these tips to lift. I need to get a bit more proficient with this technique, but can already see a difference. Definitely focusing on going UP, not OUT or DOWN with the shadow at the corner, and it works. Thanks so much. Love your videos. Cheerio from the UK
One of the BEST eye makeup tutorials I’ve seen on You Tube! So so thoroughly explained. Thank you !! Definitely subscribing and looking forward to more excellent videos like this. 👍
welcome to the fam!
I've never been able to get my eye shadow to look nice. I have had hooded eyes all my life. I followed this step by step and I'm amazed!! Thank you so much! I'm a fan!
yay!! so glad it helped thanks so much
Elle, you are so pretty. Thank you for this tutorial; I needed it. I am looking forward to the one on brushes.
😘😘😘😘
Excellent and clear explanation of the hooded eye application !
Love it.
Thank you so much!
I am a new follower/subscriber of your awesome video's....and I have learned SO MUCH!!!! Thankful and Grateful. Blessings to you.
Elle, I have deep set aging eyes but the upper inner eyelid where you highlighted is now crepy on me. I tend to cover it with a darker shadow to hide it. I know that closes my eye but what else should I do?
You're the best make-up teacher I've ever seen on youtube. Great job.
This is a great video, love the way you explain. I have the same issue with my eyes! You are do talented. Have a blessed week.
Thanks elle once again you have made it very easy to understand how to lift the eye shape also i now know what to do in trying to get colour on that bit of skin where my eye hoods or folds that for me was a real ah ah moment, thank you for posting this how to vid
This is so incredibly helpful. Your attention to detail is amazing! Thanks from a 60 yr old with deeply hooded aging eyes.
SUPERB video Elle .... just came from the fb group to watch this again (thanks for finding it Marie) - you really are an excellent teacher!
Renata boyle yes she is !!,
❤️❤️❤️
The BEST make-up/ & make- up tips tutorial EVER. Clear, concise, & on point!!! Thank you!
This technique is very similar to the one Wayne Goss just uploaded last week. You use different brushes and some other minor variations that are quite helpful (i.e., yours keeps the lid a little clearer and lighter. I love both videos and will be rewatching them while I practice.
oh really! see great minds think a like xoox
Susan Thompson i was just thinking the same exact thing. Everthing almost exact.. his was about a week ago. I tried it a few days ago for work and it really helped me alot. I have hooded eyes as well.
Me too. Hooded and droopy on the ends and getting more so every year, lol. This technique is fabulous. I'm so much happier with the gradient I get, and that carefully drawn inner highlight with the dark liner is gorgeous.
My thoughts exactly!! Almost the same tips. Both are great
Yes, I was thinking the same. Both so helpful!
Wow!! For an older woman like me, this deminstraion will help me so much!! I have a really hard time with control for using ANY liner and I've tried everything!. The tapping along the lid will be so much easier to control! Thank you!
I always leave your videos with something new. Can't wait to see your brush videos
😘😘😘

such great tips thank you elle!!!
I tried this technique morning! Wow!best and easy hooded eye demo. Makes a big difference on me. Thanks Elle!
Fantastic!
thanks for tips and vid
This is a great video for beginners or people with hooded eyes. I've really deepset hooded eyes and I'm 40 now but it's taken years to find a way that suits my particular eye shape. Mine are weird because they are slightly upturned but really deepset really hard to work with.Thank God with years of practice I've pretty much mastered it. It's an on going battle because they change as you age so you are constantly altering your eyeshadow technique. Well done this video will help a lot of people. I wish there had been youtube when I was 20...kids are so lucky to have amazing artists like you xxx
Loved the video but everytime I watch a video about hooded eyes, everyone always uses browns and earthy shades. Can you do one with bright colors please?
PS..you are beautiful!
Yes! I'm 50, and I want the COLOR! I never wear neutrals!
Yes please! I never wear brown because my eyes are hazel and brown makes them more brown, whereas purple pulls out the green. Brown is great for blue, green, or dark eyes, but brown makes my eyes look dull and tired.
@ Chrisa Mayhew, Same here!
I'm 52 and never liked my blue eyes in neutrals (looked dull and muted). I love the light purple family - lavender and lilac.
I am in the same dreary boat. Now that I finally get how to really apply shadow...color is obviously the next step...but what colors??? I hate orange and purple on me. Blah!! So I just never know. Looking forward to something about this from this beautiful, patient, awesome girl also curious how to go from day to evening...would you follow this same premise and then what....I feel like my seven year old twin girls when I apply eye makeup. Doing it all wrong my entire life. No one to show me...my mother just caked on the blue shadow and black eye liner her entire life...lol...all I knew is I wasn't following...lol just loving in spite and adoring her confidence to do it and she actually felt wonderful about rocking this look.
This is the best tutorial I’ve watched. I actually feel like I might have a clue how to do more than a single lid shade on my small deep set and now aging eyes after 54 years!
I am going to try this tomorrow! I am a new subscriber, I have discovered a few of your videos in the past month or so. I have the "Lady Di"" hooded eyes, and now at nearly 55 years old I need all the tips I can get. I'm so excited to try your suggestions. You are gorgeous! Thanks SO much for sharing your expertise, Elle. :-)
welcome to the family xo
I don't think our beautiful princess had hooded eyes! She was only 36 when she died.
This is the best eye shadow video! So helpful! Thank you!
Awesome video!!! Excellent tips....I love that palette. You are so so talented. #ellequad #hardwearbeauty
awe thank you love
This is helpful and beautiful
I do NOT understand the 400+ dislikes on this video!
awe thank you xo
Those who dislike it are idiots,they dont want to appreciate what other people do more good looking and good explaination in short,they're so envious people such disgusting.
Sometimes those who dislike it are some stupid youtubers who are jealous and don't want this lady to success.
I liked this video it's pretty helpful
I agree!!!
One of the best hooded tutorials I have seen yet, thank you!
Aaaagggghhhh! Finally! In depth, informative and I can actually use this to stop looking like I'm "asleep," " tired", "don't fell well", etc. I get this ALL the TIME because I continually misplace my shadows. I finally have the shades I need and ,after your video, the knowledge to have more opened eyes. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you 😊❤️
Pam Brown wow thank you so much!! Xo
