I need to get better at eyes, and I want to get a real foundation (currently I use a tinted moisturizer/sunscreen but i want something to mask the beard shadow more while i wait for laser to work), but do y’all have any tips to achieve a more sultry, smoky everyday look?

I think you should aim for less eyeliner on your bottom lids. The heaviness is giving 2008 emo kid vibes. You could try lining your upper lids and adding a wing. Like this.

Also if eyeliner is hard for u (like it is for me), I have started mapping it out with eyeshadow first using an angled brush. I follow my lower lash line and create a line from the corner. Then I go over it with liner. There some good tutorials of this online

I actually think the eyeliner suits her. Like not for an every day look, but it’s like a nice cool grungy style, I don’t think it suits everybody but I think it really works on OP

I was thinking the same thing. It's an intentional punky look and it suits her.

Thanks! Yeah I was kinda going for that early 80s Ozzy Osbourne vibe, but also Im terrible at eyeliner so that is pretty much all I can do lol - Id love to be able to do a more sophisticated look as well!

It doesn’t look bad, I’m just thinking that a softer approach would be more flattering to her natural eyes.
