Answer 1

Ooh goth... I like make-up like that too...

I think it's better to lay off the eyeliner , it's a bit too thick on the bottom lashline... Maybe try the crayon-ish eyeliner for the lower lashline ???

Or if you wanna a softer look , you can try the smoky look... You will look really good...

Answer 2

I'm not sure if the foundation you are wearing is the right colour for you skin, you may need to go a bit paler, or a more pinky tone, rather than a yellow based tone. To me you look a tad orange (sorry). It might have something to do with the way the sunlight is hitting your neck though.  

And just smudge your eyeliner a little bit, so its not such a thick, hard line. I like your style though :)

Answer 3

I would go a little lighter on the liner. You might want to use a pencil liner on the bottom lash line and maybe a paint pot or dip type of liner for the top lash line. You can even just use a pencil liner on both just do it a little bit lighter. You can use a dark gray eyeshadow instead of all the black and sweep it over your eyelid crease. It will give a lighter yet a smokey eye look...yet, you'll keep your rocker/goth look you have going on.

*plus, i have found (from personal experience) that the less liner you use, the more your eyes stand out. :) other than that, you look like a very lovely girl :)  

Answer 4

hun sorry but you look like a racoon i wouldnt wear eyeliner on the bottom and soften it up at the top try using liquid n dont put it on so thick

Answer 5

too much eyeliner and you should wear more concealer under your eyes to cover the circles (everyone has those).

Answer 6

You look like you're tired and dying. Leave your eyes alone because all that extra c**p highlights your bags and your tired dry look.

Answer 7

not at all

Answer 8

I think your eyeliner is too much!

Change to 'pencil' eyeliner, or switch from black to brown.

I use brown mascara, brown eyeshadow, and brown eyeliner and I think it looks better on face and more natural ... if u go to my profile and right-click on my little pic and 'save picture as...' my pic will be saved a bit LARGER and u can see my makeup (everything brown)

wiSh u the best ;-)

Answer 9

To be brutally honest I think it looks terrible. I made similar makeup-mistakes when I was your age too though so I'm not trying to offend, promise.

Personally I don't think you suit dark eyes at all. That said I'm still going to give you some tips on how to make the dark eyes look better if that's still what you want. :)

Throw out the liquid eyeliner. Liquid eyeliner is the devil's tool unless you are a proper makeup artist or wearing it on the top with dark eyeshadow blended out properly.

Switch to pencil because this will allow you to smudge it outwards and you won't have that harsh line where your eyeliner just suddenly stops. It won't be as dark as liquid but I believe this is a better thing on you anyway.

You're also wearing too much eyeliner on the bottom of your eyelid, in my opinion. On the bottom of your eyelid you don't want the line to be the same width all the way around or you will have that 'tired' look. (I hate this look because it reminds me of Uncle Fester a little). Make the line thinner from the inner of your eye (near the nose) to the middle and then from the middle to the outer of your eye have it getting slightly thicker. You don't have to give yourself real cat eyes but it will help soften your eyes and get rid of that tiredness. (I know you were tired that day but you're makeup isn't helping and from experience I know that style of eyeliner will almost never work in your favour lol.)

Another thing that would probably look good on you is to wear more eyeliner on your bottom lid above your eyelashes. Some people can't do this but it's a great way to get the dark look under your eye without putting too much eyeliner underneath your lash (because this when you start to look Uncle Festerish if you put on too much)

Now blend your eyeliner! Harsh lines look good on almond shaped eyes with catflicks on the end but not much else.

You said you wear a little bit of mascara and this seems to be a theme with younger people (I did this myself in highschool) but if you're gonna wear a lot of eyeliner then wear a proper amount of mascara. Doesn't have to be heaps but put on a proper layer and it will help open your eyes a bit more.

As for eyeshadow I only wear dark and I've found that dark gray works much better than black. It's easier to get smooth. Just use a small amount and blend it from your eyeliner outwards in a smoky sort of way.
