You’ve become my favorite beauty KZreadr. I gave up trying after I couldn’t make my face look like theirs. I finally realized the whole FaceTune and filter problem, but then I didn’t have anywhere else to go. Your looks are so beautiful and can be worn anytime and you can make them as natural or bold as you want. You teach actual techniques that don’t involve me having to buy out Sephora’s tool or makeup section. So thank you ♥️

At last!!! Its SO good to see and hear someone use PROPER eyeshadow base/primer instead of concealer! Almost every single tutorial or 'MUA' I see uses concealer as an eye base, which is the worst product to use, particularly as you say, on oily lids. Your content is GREAT! So educational but simple and easy to understand- congratulations!

Beautifully clear demonstration of exactly how to do this. I prefer it when you finish up with a shot of your full face and not just the eye. The close up of the eye is essential for the demonstration, but the full face gives context and a better idea of the colours and style. Just my opinion.

Smitha, I have learned so much from you! I'm in my mid 50s and had almost stopped wearing eyeshadow because my hoods are getting lower and more prominent and my eyes are looking very uneven in height and shape. I've picked up quite a few tips from your videos and now I feel more confident adding a bit of contouring to help my eyes look more open, even, and lifted. Thank you! Happy New Year!

Me too. I now have to relearn how to do my eye makeup.

I honestly don't know what I would have done if I didn't discover your channel. Where all other beauty creators have FAILED to give adequate, concise and effective instruction, you have succeeded, and then some. You are a life saver. You understand what the average girl/woman struggles with in her makeup application, and you address those issues in a way that is easy to understand, easy to recreate, and always effortlessly stunning. Your channel is a gold mine of great advice, and no other beauty channel has done that for me. *NONE.* (And I can tell from the other comments that I'm not alone in this!) I don't even watch other channels for instruction anymore, only for product reviews. When it comes to instruction, I already know that no one else is going to do a better job than you do. Thank you so much for what you do.♥️

Speaking of Wet'n'Wild, their eyeshadow primer Photofocus is THE BEST product I've ever tried. My eyelid is so greasy it can only keep my make-up unsmugded within ONE hour. And with Photofocus it stays for 9-12 hours which is legit a record

I love this channel over 50 and now I am finally learning how to apply makeup correctly and easily

Love this! I have hooded & crepey eyes. Your looks are always something I can look forward to learning and doing on myself. Thank you for the content! 😍

I really wanted to say THANK YOU: I've always watched so many makeup artists/influencers using the concealer as a primer and I did not understand why my results were so poor. Your tips are just amazing and totally lifesaver! 💜

It makes so much sense to cleanse the eyelid to remove oils, just like using nail polish remover to clean nails before the base coat. Thanks for the great tip!

You have single handedly revolutionized the way I use eyeshadow! I often didn't use it because I found it hard to do with my heavy hooded eyes, so I would just do mascara and a highlight and call it a day. Now I can try so many easy fun styles because of your concise and informative videos! I must add that using a nail art brush to line your eyes is pure genius and so affordable! Thank-you so much for every video!

Effective tutorials for beginners to grasp and correct our mistakes...thank you Smitha💗

Hey Smitha, I would really love to express my thanks! A huge part of my makeup learning source has always been your videos..I have been your subscription since 5 years now and every video of yours has so much new to learn..I really appreciate all your techniques and so much love to you 🤍

Your videos are one of the very few beauty tubers who explain the blotchy eyeshadow issue so well with easy to understand details that are simple to follow. Amazing! Thank you

i swear, your tutorials are more in-depth than more recent videos i've seen. i haven't even considered how to hold a brush until you brought it up! thank you greatly, your videos are super helpful for beginners and experienced makeup users alike.

I don't think people realize that concealers do have oil on them. In fact, I think I found your channel exactly from a video comparing oil content of different concealer brands on an oil absorption paper, I think. Beautiful video! I just enjoy watching your videos as relaxation!

This is an incredible and helpful one. Ppl keep talking about intensity but no one ever talks more and explains patiently about building it up and how and if they're using clean brushes etc. Im especially grateful seeing how far to hold a brush♥ u the best girl. Thanks

Always beautiful! You make it look so simple.

Thank you so much for the oily eyelid information .. I always suffered with makeup with this but I never realised until now

Honestly one of the easiest and clearest tutorials to follow. Instant subscribe! Hope to see more of your work soon.

I have watched tons of videos on eyeshadow application but the way you explain is so easy to understand and learn.. thank you so much 😍

Just learning makeup and needed this exact video! Thank you so much 🙌 This was so concise and clear, and you demonstrated and explained everything so well that anyone can follow it. The advice was wonderful as well Thank you for doing what 30 minute videos did 100 times better haha

Your tutorials are the best! I have learned so much watching your videos. My small hooded eyes have never looked better.

I have been applying eyeshadow little by little for about 4 years now because it’s the only way I can achieve the look I want but of course other beauty KZreadrs have said no that’s wrong. Thank you for the validation Smitha. I know there’s no right or wrong way to put on eyeshadow but that’s what I appreciate about your methods. Your not telling people "this is the true way to do this method. Your wrong in doing it any other way." You give people options. I think this is exactly why your one of the top beauty KZreadrs.

I seriously love your tips! You’re so beautiful and your energy is so soothing ❤️

One of the best you tubers.. Great content and always straight to the point. Excellent video as always. Thank you.

I love watching your videos. I have droopy eyelids the way you explain how to apply makeup is such a big help.

I am so glad I saw this video. I used to use corrector as my primer and it always messed up because of the oil. I'll try to get the recomended products here. Thank you 💛

You are so beautiful, and always make everything look so easy!

Thank you for saying what should be used for oily eyelids. Eyeshadow primer vs concealer. I see so many use concealer. I now know I should use the primer
