@melissa_beautyover40: As a few of y’all have requested recently, I am going to try to be better about sharing some slightly longer videos that are more like tutorials for my eyeshadow. Just know that the actual filmed time of application was more like 10-12 minutes, so I cut out a LOT of blending and back & forth. And even as I edited this, I noticed it could have used some more blending…😆 . I’m not a professional MUA but FWIW, here are a couple of things I’ve noticed when it comes to blending: (1) You pretty much have to go back and forth and go over areas more than once to get a more seamless blend between colors. (2) Shimmer shadows REALLY help a ton with blending between two colors and softening those “lines” between colors. . This look features the stunning Sweethearts and Secrets palette from @DEDESIGNATURE 💜 Her eyeshadows are a dream to blend and the shimmers are always stunning. . And for something a little fun and different, please be sure to head over to my Instagram at 5PM EST, when I have a fun collab post with my beauty bestie Kimberly going up, featuring another look from this eyeshadow palette! (Link to IG in my b-i-o) 😉 . #dedesignature #eyeshadowpalette #eyeshadowtutorial #colorfulmakeup #eyeshadowlook
