Here’s a ridiculously in-depth blending tutorial for all you beginners out there

SO let me know if you want a colorful version but ALSO....what if we did an all shimmer version 😈

I’m not a make up beginner but I’m always jealous of people with such amazing eyelid space. My deeply hooded eyes are just gonna take a seat 😭

This is extremely helpful!! Seeing someone applying makeup in real time without skipping or fast-forwarding over the actual process, and explaining the thought process is perfect!

First time here.. I totally understand why you have over 1M subscribers. Holy crap, woman..You’re a teacher! Thank you for this !

The quickest 18 mins of my life. I wished this was an hour long. So informative and pleasant, you’re also so gorgeous!!!

These back to basics tutorials will always be helpful because there will always be beginners and techniques that may need to be updated

I absolutely love how she zooms in so much and actually lets us see her skin and texture. If every YouTuber did this things would be so much easier and peoples expectations wouldn’t be so high to think they’ll looked filtered in real life since a YouTuber they saw is using a camera filter.

I am a total beginner! This is very helpful. At the age of 33 I've never worn makeup and at this point I'm almost afraid to try because so many tutorials leave 'obvious' stuff out. I neeeeed a ridiculously in-depth tutorial like this!

Well, this tutorial is just what I need. I got an eyeshadow palette as a gift but I have no idea how to use it. Thank for the tuts! ❤️🥰

My tip for those struggling to learn their eye shape and where to place shadows - have a detail hand-held mirror for blending, but also stand in front of a big mirror to see the effect it gives on your whole face.

I followed this to the LETTER and my eyeshadow looked beautiful! The first time in 35yrs of applying make up that my eyebrow hasn’t looked all muddy or like a black eye!! Thank you a thank you thank you!!! Now I need to practice so that I can do it without second by second support!🤣 xxx

Okay this is the best tutorial I've seen thus far. The darker the shade, the smaller the brush!!! Yes!! That's it and I can remember this! Thank you so much for really breaking it down for us. I'm not a beginner, I'm 39, but I love continuing my education bc I always learn something new no matter what!

Discovered by accident that the Wayne Goss cream foundation once powdered makes a bullet proof eye shadow primer. I love your videos, Alex, because you zoom in and use realistic lighting. I hate the tiktok style "tutorials" that are super short and so blown out with filters literally everything looks amazing. Your base makeup in this video is just gorgeous.

A nice tip I got from a Dior makeup artist is to not tap the brush, but to gently touch it to the back of your hand. This ensures you get no fallout, while retaining more pigmentation on the first go. Hope this helps anyone that might find tapping wasteful or that it reduces pigmentation by a lot if done vigorously. Obviously, different formulas will have different pigmentation and fallout, but this tip has helped me a lot - especially when working with slanted brushes to do liner work with shadow.

I've went most of my life without wearing make-up. I'm now 36 and I'm getting to a point where I don't feel as beautiful without makeup anymore. This video was incredibly helpful for me. You did a really good job at including small details, which are so important for a beginner like me. Also thankyou for explaining some of the terms such as blending and shading. I bought an eyebrush set the other day, and I had no clue how or when to use certain brushes. I think my favorite part was when you said to use a smaller brush as you transition.

You're ALWAYS so considerate of all of the different types of ppl out there in the world!!! It it's beginners, pros, skin tones, financial brackets!!! AND your tutorials are ALSO so educational !! THANK YOUUUUU!!! 😅❤

I’m not a beginner, but I sure do love an in depth blending video! I’m sure other confident folks out there enjoy these as well! Please do more! I love watching you build eye looks and explain why you are doing what you are doing. Would love to see a video of your favorite cream shadows and you utilizing them. Would also love to see you use some Rituele de Fille products. I’ve just gotten my first order from them and they are so lovely. I think you would really enjoy their products! Especially the eye soots and gelees. The thorn oil and the new 3 drop foundation. The color nectars are fantastic also. Anywho / thanks for another in depth video!!

Yes yes yes to the colorful version. I struggle with color the most 🤦🏻‍♀️ This was so extremely helpful, thank you 💜

Yes. I would love to see purple and green both blended. Thanks

This is the very first time in my life that I witnessed an amazing tutorial with explicit details and direction. Thank you so much for this beautiful demonstration. You are amazing, I bought the palette, now just praying I can do it half as good as you did.
