This was my first time trying to copy a celeb's makeup and I have to say it was a lot of fun! Of course I look nothing like her, and I didn't get this makeup look completely right, but still I think this is something I may attempt to do on a regular basis.
I think trying to imitate something and get it just right will help improve my makeup skills and hopefully I'll learn some new techniques in the process!
Face:
Revlon Colorstay Foundation
Revlon Colorstay Concealer
Revlon Beyond Natural Concealer
Calvin Klein Concealer in Brown Sugar ( yes I used 3 diff concealers and my skin still looked wretched)
ELF Pressed Powder in Almond
Mac Prep and Prime finishing powder
YSL Faucils mascara
ELF Hollywood false lashes
*Hardest lashes I've ever used. The spine is thick and didn't want to bend to fit my eye shape, plus they feel very heavy on the lids. To get them to stay put, I wound up applying lash glue to my skin and then holding these suckers at both ends with some tweezers and my fingers until the glue dried. Won't be using these again anytime soon :(
Eyes:
Loreal HIP Cream Color Crayon ( the green one)
Lorac Money Eyeshadow
Urban Decay Graffiti Loose pigment
Black Radiance Gingersnap Bronzer (blended up to brow bone)
Brows:
Sleek Storm Palette
ELF Brow kit in Dark (wax side)
Cheeks:
Graffiti Cosmetics Blushon Spain
Lips:
Revlon Superlustrous Lipgloss in Nude Lustre (75% off at CVS!)
What celebs would you guys suggest I try next?
