as someone who feels like I missed a lot of milestones in makeup when i “should” have learned them, youre so incredibly helpful without assuming i know something i dont, without being condescending either. Im sorry about your recent food poisoning :( glad you feel a little better
Dope comment.
yes, the makeup milestones! i’m 22 and can’t do eyeliner for shit, makes me wish i started wearing it in middle school or even high school lol
Yes this!!!! This is me
@@emiemiemi4769 don't even sweat it, there's no right time to start using makeup. I'm 36 and only just got into it, I'm learning tons of new shit from every Alex video XD
Oh that's what it is!! Something about these videos feels so approachable/genuine and you put it into words
I think the “it looks like murder half way through” is what stops me from doing serious makeup. I’m terrible with having faith that a look will come together or that it will “look worse before it looks better”
Just do some for fun when you know you're not going anywhere and no one will see you. Just mess around with the attitude of you're experimenting, and you'll be able to push past the midpoint because you'll know what's on the other side,
I hope you have better faith next time. I believe in you!
Mine would for sure look like murder at the end too unfortunately 😂
@@aljones75 I need to learn not to mess everything up with perfectionism. I'll get it almost right then I'll try to "fix" it and trash everything. Not perfect is good enough. Practice make perfect, not fussing with it.
@@aljones75 Practice! Have fun with it.
I swear she is one of the only people who are doing what they're supposed to do in the most professional way possible: she's so gentle, everything's clear and precise. Love her
As a goth, I approve this video.
Happy Halloween, Alexandra!
This is just another Tuesday for me lmao
Although, Tati's textured neutrals was literally life changing with how easy it makes raccoon chic happen
We need our international official *Goth Approved* stamp logo. 🧛🏻♀️🖤
Same here, flawless!
I've been doing my dark goth makeup similarly to this, and it really is the best way. I personally do the taupe/ mauve shades for blending before the black, to really make things smoky when the black comes in. I'll have to try a black base though, I've been using cream liner as the base and it works great!
@@ophilianecr I love the NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil crayon in Black Bean for that.
I def have to try this cream, tho.
Does Alex make this look so easy? Yes!
Am I going to try and recreate this? Yes!
Is it going to look horrible? Yes!
😂😂😂
I’ll be in the boat with you - seated next to you 🤣😘
Can I get in the boat too?
@@livesouthernable sure!!
😆
There’s room for everyone in this boat!
Love how this can double as an Avril Lavigne tutorial
this spoke to the part of my soul thats still 12 thank you from now on i will interpret this as an avril lavigne tutorial
no we love a good Avril Lavigne
Dude...dude....that contour powder trick to blend the black is GENIUS
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
This was the most helpful dark eyeshadow tutorial I've ever seen! Also I love your personality, you're so calm and nice to listen to. I honestly haven't watched TH-cam makeup videos in about 10 years because they invariably will be too annoying and loud ("OHMTGOD HIIIEEEE GUYYYYYYS WHAT IS UUUUUP") LOL. But I somehow found your videos!
😭 Thank you so much! 🙏🏼🖤🖤🖤
Being human is so lame sometimes. Hearing you talk about the darkness around your eyes negatively, meanwhile I literally put on eyeshadow to mimic it. You look so chic, so delicately alive, absolutely gorgeous without a touch of makeup on. I want to appreciate my natural puffiness and redness more, emphasize my aegyo sal or irritated flush. I'm plump and proud.
Oh My Goth! I' ve been using MAC Haux and Quarry to enhance my dark circles, blending it out with yellow down to the angular arteria and pure green following my dorso-nasal arteria (I' m exactly Anelochka' s skin shade). For the rest of my face, I go for the other side of the coin, deep greyish hollows to mimic the skull and highlighter wherever a bone is pointy (TMJ, gonial angle...) but playing with puffiness sounds cute. Maybe this will be my "Halloween Look" 😉 You need to see the last model of Painted by Spencer😮. 🧛🏻♀️🖤
@@sebumpostmortem omg. Your username 🤗💖✨️
Thanks for mentioning Quarry, that looks like it might be a fun blush for me.
You really GET it. I saw that video you mentioned-- the pigmented lidssss, the anglesssss, I swooned so hard! Thanks for the reminder of it. 🤠
Thissssss! My ma occasionally tells me that I look ill in certain types of makeup and I do not know how to tell her that that is indeed the point. I rarely do the natural look because makeup is (I feel) too expensive to look the exact same after all the effort one can put into the ✨look✨
@@lslmadi
I absolutely HATE the “you should accept Gawd ‘just in case’” hard sell. Pascal’s Wager stinks.
@@e.g.2261
Closet goth? 😁
My tip is if you don’t have a black base for your eyeshadow… use your mascara in a thin layer with a concealer brush… 👍
I binge watched all of Alx Talx today after discovering your channel. It felt like listening to a nice, kind friend.
I'm very lonely and have been suffering from depression from the last 7 years now. I really appreciated the "company".
I hope you do more of the chatty, long videos (like you did a few weeks ago). I really appreciate it. Thank you Alex. You're an Angel.
Have better thumbnail than most fashion channels too😌
Aww, yes! Sending you more friend vibes, we're all here to binge her videos haha
I'm binging with you! Those videos are so light and carefree and chill while also being pro as f- and very informative. It shows that you can actually do stuff and is giving this little push of friendly, positive energy we all sometimes need. Hugs and I keep my fingers crossed for you to find and ador yourself during you current situation 🥰
It’s such a small step but watching you rehydrate after using the makeup wipe was so important to me. I’d say your skin is the closest texture to my own and seeing that you also need to rehydrate after wiping I was like omg it’s not just me! A lot of youtubers either don’t need to or don’t show the reapplication. I learn so much from you because we have similar texture/face structure and preferences in makeup. Love your videos
the panda thing was "the look" for us 80's girls back in the day! thanks for this vid, now I can finally do the black right. x
The difference that final bit of blending with the contour shade made is incredible. What a fantastic tip! I'm honestly obsessed with this eye look.
a matte black smokey eye will always be my signature look. i love that mac 2010 vibe and always will
One thing I LOVE about watching you and your content is how calm you are. You instantly ground me and that’s such a lovely gift. Thanks!
So....... If you don't call yourself a professional, Alex...... I'm barely human and don't have opposing thumbs!!🤣🤣
You are incredibly talented, wildly informative, full of helpful teachings, and your makeup applications are stellar! Pro, I say YES!!!! This look is killer!!!! Blessings to you!!!✌🏼💚🙏🏼
LMAO, and totally agree. Alex is the Queen.
If I worked for Pat McGrath in any capacity I would literally be sssoooooo arrogant. How she's this chill, I'll never comprehend
Pro? Maybe not. Expert? Absolutely. Anyone who gets paid is a professional but it takes talent and practice to be a master.
Love love love. I am in my 50s now and soooo wish I had this video when I was in my teens/twenties goth/emo phase. Not only do you tell us what you are doing you explain WHY you are doing it - so if I don’t have the exact product or brush I can still make the look happen. ❤❤
Using contour shade for blending edges is genius!
I tried your method today. It was a huge success - thank you!
Ive been using my blush as an eyeshadow transition color for years. It works nicely and brings cohesiveness to my face. I also use it as an eyeshadow/eye contour by itself for a no makeup look but with some structure.
As a Goth girl with hooded eyelids, this was super helpful! I feel like a lot of the mistakes I've been making were clarified so that I can avoid them. I did want to ask what about a liner? Can liner be applied along the top lash line with this look, or is it just too much?
I have very deep set eyes like you do and have hereditary dark circles too. I have never been able to wear a black smokey eye or any smokey eye for that matter without looking like I received two black eyes lol I’m going to give this a try. I don’t dress up for Halloween but might do it this day in case it looks bad I’ll just say it’s part of my costume 😂
"I don't consider myself a pro" got me shooketh
I have about 20 black eyeshadows in my collections of pallets, but always shy away from them because I think it would be unforgiving and scary, but this looks okay. Just gotta find the black cream base
I used this at the Halloween Stevie Nicks concert. Thanks for helping me not look too ridiculous!
I misuse Sephora's black matte liquid lipstick as an eyeshadow base, consider buying one just to use as base in case the dedicated eyeshadow base products don't work for you. It works the exact same way as described in this video. Take it from someone who has been to hundreds of goth/metal/scene/punk etc parties and festivals and did a lot of makeup. Obviously don't do it if you already used the lipstick on your lips, to avoid infections. Edit: and when you have next to no money, just get an Essence black kohl pencil, and use that as base or something, it's not as great, but still pretty awesome.
You have a dark halo in your iris that is PERFECT for this type of look. It brings me joy.
Recently for my base I used maybelline super stay matte liquid lipstick in Black. My makeup stayed in place even after several hours of go-go dancing
I’ve never been able to pull of a black smokey eye, BUT I’m going to give it one more try. Following this tutorial to the t. Thanks for another great video. 💕
Me too!
God this is gorgeous 🥵 I did a full black Smokey eye with deep red to blend out for my witch costume, and I was living!!! I felt so confident
This is actual magic. The blending is CRAZY! 😍
THIS. This is my look. This is my vibe. Absolutely love it! And when you talked about the under eye darkness, it made me laugh so hard! My whole life’s work is correcting my under eye darkness! 🖤
I feel like black eyeshadow never looks as impactful on my dark brown eyes
I'd imagine this would also look dope with a dark night-blue, and make your eyes pop
Try a really deep plum. I also have super dark eyes and rhw slight warmth brings out the greens in dark eyes
IMO, you have the perfect eye color & shape/size for this look. It really makes your irises pop. The entire look, plus new hair lift, bring out the safety pin earrings. 🖤
I’ve learned so much from watching you. I was just on the Sephora website placing an order and I saw you and got so excited 😂 thank you for these videos!
😩🙏🏼❤️❤️❤️
Okay but what did you get sis? What a tease 😭
@@nailinthefashion lol 🤣
Love this look on you and love your application and presentation.
Definitely picking up strategies for making up my own face.
Thank you!
Love what you do.
Omg! I saw this eye look in another video and I was so hoping you’d do a video on it. Loooove it! ♥️🖤
Love the tutorial, great tip about blending with the bronzer ❤
I just came back to like this one again. It’s so gorgeous and curiously an every day look. Love it!
works gorgeously on you, adoooore it. thanks, i'm excited to give it a go!
Perfect timing! Planned on black eye tomorrow so appreciate the demo!
Thank you for the trick with the color correction! I always have trouble covering the dark circles when I do dark smoky eyes, hope this one will help
I'm going to have to try both of those as an eyeliner. I'm much older (53) and have begun to use black eyeshadow as eyeliner. (spritzed with a setting spray.) Trust me, once you're my age a black shadow just works better!😁🥴
I'm in my 30s and I do that trick too. Half line of black eyeshadow on my upper lash line blended at the edges and just a gentle wisp of the nearly empty brush on the outside corner on the lower lid. It can be defining but subtle for natural looking everyday makeup. Or I do the same thing but with a brown shadow if I really want to do the "no make-up" makeup look aka the "I just rolled out of bed looking this perfect" illusion.
@@Draggonny What do you use? I've been just using a standard black or brown eyeshadow. I spray my angled eye brush with setting spray then dip it in the shadow. My shadows are starting to get a bit gunked up, though. I'm wondering if a better quality shadow would help and stop the shadow from gunking up like that. I've also seen actual cake eyeliners but I have never tried any yet. I just can't use the shadows dry. Not as a liner. They end up smearing and moving around unless I've gotten them wet before putting on.
@@deniece0821 I know I’m not the person you were asking, but I recommend Inglot’s Duraline mixing medium. It’s amazing.
@@GreenEyedGumby You know what, I almost got Ingots Duraline. I watch Jaime French and she used to use it often. I ended up getting the Elf version of it. It didn't do so well. The Elf drops works great for a dried up gel liner and things like that but I tried mixing it with a powdered shadow and it just didn't work that well. (I only used the TEENIEST, TINIEST dop of it but it sheered it out too much.) The drops do work great for sheering out cream/liquid blush, though. So it wasn't a waste.
I may end up trying the Inglot Duraline anyway. Elf is pretty good with their dupes but maybe they just missed with the drops. 🤷🏻
Thanks!
I think your definitely a pro! Your an artist! And you use that knowledge to apply makeup
I love your videos! Forever a fan
Yes, I love this look. I used to do black eyeshadow back in the day.
girl the glow on that skin!
So helpful! Thank you for your artistry and generosity!
I can't emphasise enough how beautiful your skin is 💖
Her voice is SO calming! I’m definitely trying out a black Smokey eye, I’ve always been intimidated but now after this video I’m feeling brave🐼
Oh wow, i love your black shadow, its so perfectly gothic. I will have to try this method as i've had fall out, thank you for sharing this with us, love love love 🖤💜🖤
I learned sooooo much from this and I’ve been Goth for years. You’re great at teaching, also love your short haircut! 🖤🦇🤘
Aww this looks so feminine and beautiful. I love it on you, and will try for myself!
Love it!!! Thank you 💗 😊 lo e the glory ski. With the black smokey eyes, I always go heavy foundation and this looks better!!! ✨️
when you said contour, it just blew my mind, even before you demonstrated I was like "amazing! genius! absolutely!" absolutely genius idea
great video ! nicely explained! looks gorgeous !!! i liked the contour/bronzer trick!
I am new to your channel but your tips and tricks are great! Easy to follow and your so pretty and funny I love throwing your videos on while I'm getting ready. I'm an artist so contouring the face in certain ways makes sense to me as an illustrator. The highlight in the inner corner of your your eyes pulls the dimensions of your face to make them not inset so deep. It's tricking your eyes into reading that space differently! It makes you look more youthful, as darker and deeper set eyes happen naturally with age for the most part. I find looking at how artists DRAW faces can help you learn new ways to add contour for make up, it's just playing with colors lighting and dimensions after all!
I don't even wear makeup how did I get here 💀 but you make it look SO easy, and it's so mesmerizing to watch! The black shadow is such a bold look 🖤🖤🖤
the black base/white base thing makes SO much sense idk how or why i didn't put it together sooner 🤦🏾♀🤦🏾♀thank you for this tutorial
Love love love! Going to do this with my ultra darks, charcoal, pewter, eggplant, etc. Love the blending tip!!!
You ARE a pro! I'm obsessed with your style and your humble nature. I'm gonna do black shadow now. Thank you so much about to now. 🍄
Super easy to follow and I got a much prettier effect with the trick of using my contour to soften! Awesome 💡 idea! So gorgeous thank you!
I clicked like before I even started watching the video because you look stunning! Your skin looks so glowy and smooth. Hope you’re seeing the difference too and that your patience has paid off. ❤
I love a Smokey eye but I’ve always been a sucker for a blue shimmer on top bc ~grunge~ so this will totally help me class up the look for nicer events! Thank you!
The ‘helpful tips’ quotient in this video! My goodness. I don’t know about braving a black, but I do think I would like to give this a go with some of my deeper colours.
very helpful. Feel like play with this one for a bit to perfect it and use on my birthday date look. Thanks Love!!!
good trick with the bronzer to blend. I use my bronzer as an everyday eyeshadow already! thanks
I have deepset eyes and would have NEVER tried this black eyeshadow look - until now.
I swear, Alex could smear mud all over her face and still be the hottest chick in the room.
Ngl I’ve had such a bad day but I love watching your videos whenever I feel sad because you calm me down 🖤 I hope you’re feeling better!! Thank you for the gorgeous video 🖤☺️
Thank you!!! I've attempted a smokey eye a handful of times and it never seems to come out. The way you explained the build up and techniques was super helpful. I can't wait to try again
I’m folllowing this and one of your other tutorials for my glampire look tomorrow. So dope!
🙌🏼🖤
Such a great video on Smokey eyes... I struggle everytime with normal black eyeshadow powder because no matter how dark it looks in the palette the pigment is slightly lighter on the eyes (nd yes I've tried a few palettes). But the eye pigment step is I believe a game changer. Loved it.. and GIRL YOUR SKINNNNNNNN!!!!! Butter smooth 😍😍😍 Get better soon n stay shining 🌟
You’re my idol. I swear other big creators just tell you some bs so they can hide their secrets while showing off their talent. 😂 You actually teach us and I’m so grateful because I love art but know nothing about makeup basics. Thank you! 💚
recently discovered ur channel & just wanna say thanks for getting me back into make-up :-) im relearning the basics rn, this past weekend i bought like 4 new things for my under-eye area based on ur recs. including the charlotte tilbury corrector 🌟 PS love seeing u use auric, i love sam!
This was happenstance..a thumbnail I just now stumbled across. One of my favorite looks for anyone, but here super crazy and as stylish as usual..thanks for sharing
I love how you have the kind of face where all black just looks casual, i know two people irl like it too.
This is gorgeous and so helpful, thank you!
I haven't tried this look just yet, but I bet blending with loose powder would also work well.
Thanks for yet another great video! You give such great explanations, and your calm but fun teaching style is always a pleasure to watch.
This is nice as it teaches to trust the process. Half of my "can't be arsed" attitude when it comes to makeup is halfway through I usually dislike how it looks and think it'll never work and then take it off. Whereas usually towards the end if I just slap some liner and mascara on it's all fine
You are so beautiful! And thank you so much for this tip I finally got the perfect smokey eye!
Bronzer to blend! Who knew! Excited to try
I love the bronzer/contour tip! That was the missing piece for me❤
This is great! I also found that if you have a more prominently wide upper nose bridge(like me), extending inner and outer corners a little bit really stops from messing with facial proportions, ( especially stopping my small eyes from appearing smaller). Love this tutorial ❤️
I’ve always struggled with a black Smokey eye. I gave up years ago. I definitely want to try these tips! Thank you!😌😇💙
You are a freaking goddess with this look! WOW!
This makeup totally suits you. LOVE IT!
Very useful, enjoyed the recommendations on using face products on the eyes for a lighter touch eyeshadow and why this works (less pigment in the product because it's intended for the face and not the eyes)
I really love your videos, ur tips are the ones that helped me the most, thanks ❤
Love this so much, Alex! Thank you
This is sooooo cool looking im so late to the makeup game. Wasn’t allowed to wear it till I moved out on my own. When i was a late teen I snuck the bare basics so I could remove quickly 😅 and at 36 i can say ive not truly experimented with much but this is by far one of the prettiest looks I’ve ever seen! So beautiful and yet confident looking! Thanks for this video and great tips for ppl like me who know nothing about this !!!
I am obsessed with your channel. I learn so much. Your presentation style is superb. Your makeup is 🔥 and you show us that Instagram and Tik Tok are basically bullshit and to be avoided!
Sidenote: I LOVE your clever video stamp with your Alex&ra!!! love it!
I'm thinking this style all time and suddenly your video popped out!!
This is insanely beautiful
Honestly, the BEST black smoky eyes tutorial ever!!! Gracias 🤗I love it, you rock Alexandra!!!!
😩 Thank you love!
only you can make this amazing. Gorgeous
I learned so much from 2 videos. Thank you
Genius! Thanks for the tips!
This is just how Taylor Momsen used to do her makeup, I`m in love
You’re simply the best make up artist! ❤
Yey! Same skin tone and eye colour as me, aaaaand doesn't look like there are filters on your face? Amazing. Happy I've found you!
