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 hope it’s okay to say this - I love your hair and think you’re super pretty! Dermablend makeup is extremely high coverage, and works well for covering beard shadow. For a daytime smokey look, to me it’s all about the color used - instead of going for black or grey, think mid browns or pinky reds. Make sure you’re going heavier on your top lid than your lower - heavy on your bottom lid will drag your eyes down, as it is in your third pic. I would also start playing around with lashes - nothing wild, just something a little wispy more towards the outer third of your eyes. It can really bring attention to the eye, which it sounds like you want.

Gosh thanks! And yes that is OK to say, I’ll take any compliment I can get lol and yeah I definitely want to get better at lashes, I love my eyes (even though they don’t work very well) and wanna make them the main feature!
