I'm still pretty new to makeup, and I feel like I keep running into the same problem. I spend time blending my eyeshadow, but as soon as I open my eyes, it almost disappears or becomes barely noticeable.

I'm wondering if it's my eye shape, my placement, or just my technique. Right now I'm keeping things pretty simple with a NYX eyeshadow palette, a Sheglam eyeliner, and LOréal mascara.

Should I place the shadow higher, use different shades, or try different techniques? I'd really appreciate any advice!

The fish was made separately and attached afterward. I punched a hole through it and used a small piece of chain from an old shein necklace since I didn't have anything else on hand.
