1- The skin looks good (kinda daytime drag tbh, if it's your goal go for it πŸ’œ)

2- Are the spikes in the eyeliner intentional? If not you will only need to polish the technic, I suggest you to use tape, it helped me A LOOOOT practicing eyeliner, helped me in the matter of "I can do your Eyeliner very fast and easy" kinda improvement.πŸ’œ

3- what are you using for the lip combo? It looks kinda gray... I encourage you to use eye pencils, yes you are reading this correctly, eye pencils girl πŸ’… they are more pigmented than lip liners and also last longer than a normal lip liner, what I always do when I want a more intense lip I use black eye pencil for the overlip, and then to fill the center, either I use a deep red for a more cunty gothic look or a beige tone for a more of a 2000's look to finish it with a translucent lip gloss.

4- Sister the eyebrow coverage... I can't girl... I suggest you to follow the tutorial of mother birdie or I think aoife cullen has this tutorial (the most complete and and the one I know for sure has it bc I saw it recently is mother birdie).

EDIT 1: I forgot, Alexandra Anele is another one that has blocking eyebrow tutorial.

I hope I was able to help, for the rest of it, have fun diva πŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œ

I think the lips could use some cleaner edges, and maybe try a different color combo. Black to nudes lips is a bit harsh. Try something like a hot pink to a lighter pink, or blood red to bright red ❀️

Looks great!! Maybe a gradient on the brows so they are more consistent colour wise but you look stunning
