How to rock black eyeshadow and other dark makeup?

So i really like dark dramatic makeup looks .

I cant do smokey eyes well though because i have somewhat "hooded" or "arabic" eye, meaning my crease is a little bit deep in the eye socket , not to much but a little .

I have a bunch of different eyeshadows .

By the way , i want the whole look if possible , not just the eyeshadow/cream shadow part .

And please dont tell me to put it up to my brow bone , ill look like an idiot .

Thanks .How to rock black eyeshadow and other dark makeup?
Well from what ive heard from my best friend michelle, the best way to look great in ANY kind or color of eye-shadow is to start with a dark color suck as black on the very tip of your eyelid (near your eye) and then take a slightly lighter color such as (dark grey or dark silver) and put it in layers (not like layers on top of each other but like stacking going upwards) and then take a littler lighter color Like (normal grey or silver) and gently apply it above the dark grey or dark silver and there ya go! :) but make sure to mix in the colors really well so it doesnt look like stripes on your eyelid because ive had that happen before.

start with primer/concealer on eyelids

put a black liner on top lid and half of the bottom

blend a matte black shadow into the crease, then blend a sparkly gray color in the center of the lid

now use a sparkly black liner on top rim, then curl lashes and use 2 to 3 coats of black mascara on top and bottom lashes (or wear false ones)



keep the rest of the face natural ( semi-dewy skin, pale pinkish/peach matte blush, and a nude lipgloss!)
