hey guys so in today's video I'm going to show you how to do a cut crease for
hooded eyes my face is relaxed my eyes are very hooded so this is my tips and
tricks to make your eyes look bigger and look like you have more lid space
I'll see you as the Jaclyn hill pout for this tutorial since so many of
you want to see more looks with it so if you want to see how I got this look
and how to do a cut crease for hooded eyes go ahead and keep on watching a
lot of you guys might think Angela you don't have hooded eyes but I do when I
normally film I just kind of naturally lift up my eyebrow and I will tilt my
head back and so when I'm filming it looks like I have a nice crease right
here but when my eye is completely relaxed like it is right now I have
hooded eyes and it's hard for me not to like like I want to lift up my eyebrows
so bad as you can see I have a lot of meat going on right here my natural
crease is this tiny little line right there I have a very small lid space
so cut creases are good for hooded eyes because you kind of create like
a fake crease kind of like an illusion you don't I mean my natural crease is
right here and you can't even see it but if I create a cut crease that's
up higher it's gonna make my eye look bigger and it's gonna look like I have
more lid space than I actually do it's kind of like contouring for your eye so
for this tutorial I'm gonna be using the Jaclyn hill palette just because
I know so many of us own this this video might be somewhat longer than my usual
eye makeup tutorials just because I am gonna explain like every step I'm doing
and why I'm doing it and all that good stuff see even right now I'm lifting on
my eyebrow relaxed so there's actually a few different types of cut creases
you can do you'll see me a lot to 1/2 cut crease because I love having like a
gradient effect on my eye you can also do like a full cut crease and kind of
wing it out I personally don't like that on my eye shape because it just looks
different when I'm like this and when I'm like this so I don't like that my
favorite way to wear a cut crease and how I'm gonna do it today is right in
the center of my lid it kind of creates the halo effect as well which again is
just gonna make your eyes look bigger I'm gonna start with the transition
shade so I'm gonna take silk cream on a sigma e40 I'm gonna try my best to
keep my eyes relaxed for this video I'm sorry if I end up lifting it up
but it's just such a habit of mine so I'm gonna put the shade above my
natural crease kind of more in my eye socket area because I can feel my brow
bone goes right here so I'm kind of going right underneath my brow bone
and I'm just going to go in back and forth motions to distribute the color
I'm also kind of tilting my head back just a little bit so I can get right
in here on the same brush I'm gonna take butter and I'm gonna do the same
exact thing with this shade and you can see what I'm looking straight
ahead you can see the color that I'm putting in my crease which is what
you want if I put it any lower you wouldn't be able to see it with my
eyes open now when I take a smaller blending brush this is a Sigma F 63
and I'm going to take the shape buns and we're gonna use this to
darken up our fake crease so I'm going to see where my crease needs
to be which is right in here not so I'm going to start the shadow
and I'm just creating a Halfmoon shape with it
I'm using a very light hand with this shadow and brush because I don't want
to put the shadow all over the place I wanted to be very concentrated right
here I'm gonna grab an even darker shade so I'm gonna take mocha and I might do
the same exact thing just like what I did with buns this is just deepening
it up even more you see when I look straight ahead you can totally see the
shadow I'm gonna go back with my first fluffy brush and just kind of blend
out this little area right here let's just look in a little bit too harsh
I'm gonna take more moca on a sigma e30 - and I'm gonna start to pack
about on my outer corner in inner corner to create the halo effect and
I do have a coupon koba's Sigma you can use my code angela bright to get
10% off anything their brushes are my absolute favorite I use them in every
single video they're literally amazing and I do link every brush I use down
below and I kind of tell you what the brush is as well to make it easy for you
to see which ones I'm using for what we're packing up on the outer corner
and bringing it up to our little fake crease here and again on my inner corner
and then I'll softly connect it right here in the center in
the little fake crease and I'm gonna take that little
blending brush the F 63 and just use that to softly blend
so now for the step that's gonna make the biggest difference the actual cut
crease part for me I find it easier to use a liquidy concealer some people like
to use a cream concealer or like a Mac Paint Pot kind of deal but
I find concealer works the best for me my favorite concealer for this is
the Urban Decay all nighter concealer I like this concealer because it's not
too liquidy and it dries matte so it's not going to transfer as much as like a
dewy concealer would and then for this step I use a very very tiny brush this
is a BH Cosmetics number eleven brush you could also use something a little
bit longer like this this is a sigma e40 7c it's just still very tiny some
people like to use an even bigger brush like a t58 this guy's just bigger but
it's still really flat I just like to use this tiny one because I feel
like I have more control that way someone take my concealer and I'm
just gonna get a little bit on the tip of the brush here if you wanted to you
could just start to map out the crease right there and call it good or you can
do this little concealer trick I will show you I'm gonna stand the concealer
on like my actual real crease and I'm gonna look up you can see it transferred
up a little bit higher right there and that's around the area where you
want your new cut crease to be so I'm gonna find that little spot and I just
stamped the concealer first to get like a good guideline over I want it to be
and I'm just keeping it right in the center and then you can
take more concealer and just fill out those little center area of your lid
and see it when my eye is open you can see the top of my cut crease
which is what you want my natural crease is actually right here so I
kind of went maybe like quarter of an inch higher than my real crease
that was probably the hardest step so now we have the hard part over with
and now I'd like to take a lighter shimmery color and pop that in the
center right on top of the concealer so I'm gonna take a efore t6 in the
shade hustle and I was gonna put that right over the concealer the concealer
will also make the eyeshadow stick better so that's just kind of like
an added plus and you go all the way up to that cup crease
my eyes already looking so much bigger we are doing good so now
I need to blend this lighter color into the darker color
so I'm gonna take that ether t2 with more buns and just put that
right in between the two shades to kind of blend them together
now I'm gonna go back into one of my little tiny brushes and I'm gonna
take the shade mocha which is the darkest shade we've been using and
I'm gonna put that right above the cut crease to kind of deepen it up
and it's gonna make this lighter part pop even more you only need
a tiny bit of shadow for this part and you'll want to use a very light
hand Dan I've just made it pop a little bit more now I'm gonna
move on to the lower lash line on the Sigma F 63 I'm gonna take butter and
silk cream and I'm just gonna blend that along my entire lower lash line
then I'm gonna take buns and just do the same exact thing and then
I'm gonna take mocha now in a little tiny brush this is the
lo4 I'm gonna take beam and I'm gonna use that to highlight my inner corner
and right underneath my brow bone now I'm just gonna do a very thin
line of eyeliner and for that I me as the Smashbox always on
liquid eyeliner and I do like to stock my eye layer all the way in
my little inner corner and bring it all the way out to my outer
lashes now I'm gonna pop on some mascara and lashes so for lashes
I used House of lashes a lower light and here's the final look
all right here is my eye completely relaxed and as you see when I look
down my lid looks so much bigger I have so much more space in there now you can
see my cut crease when I'm looking straight ahead and my eye just looks
a lot bigger and I love it this is the easiest way that I found to do a cut
crease on myself of course there's so many other techniques you can do but
this is how I like to do it I hope you guys enjoyed this tutorial and
