Katy Perry "Last Friday Night" 80s Makeup Tutorial

Hello lovelies!

I've posted my interpretation of Katy Perry's makeup in her latest video. I've made it a bit more wearable, as far as blue and purple can be wearable... And I don't think I need to point out that my eye shape is different from Katy Perry's, so it looks a bit different :P

Blake Lively and I look exactly the same...

... but not really.

Hello my loves,

So my video-making has started gaining a bit of momentum. Two videos in two weeks? Yes! Stick with me girls, I'm making an effort!



Anyhow, my latest inspiration came from Blake Lively/Serena van der Woodsen from Gossip Girl. I've actually been meaning to do her look for a while now, but things get put off, as you all know :) I'm going to try to do a Blair Waldorf look too- hopefully in time for the next new episode of Gossip Girl!

Zooey Deschanel Holiday Party Makeup + I am a big loser

Hello girls,

I just want to preface this by saying YES, I know I am a huge loserface. This past month has been literally non-stop crazy. I had a huge project going on, and when I wasn't physically working on that, I was thinking about it or planning something to do with it. So Youtube and my blog kind of fell by the wayside. Apologies.
My last class of the semester is Monday morning, and I had nothing to prepare for it, so I decided to take a few requests on Twitter and make a video or two this weekend. I ended up making one makeup tutorial- a Zooey Deschanel look, that would be great for Holiday parties. It's also got a cool, retro vibe to it.

I'm waiting for the video to upload... I had done it all through iMovie earlier today, but all of a sudden iMovie decided it wouldn't enjoy cooperating with me. It told me it had finished uploading and was published. Alas, it had not. I kept going to check on "My Videos" page to see if it would show up, but nope. If Youtube were a person, it would have been giving me a really good "wtf?" face.

Anyway.
Here are some preview photos of the look. As always, much more vibrant in person, and I am (slightly) less awkward in person, too, so it generally looks better... in person! Haha. If you look closely, you'll see a very faint, subtle wing to the eyeliner (I used black eyeshadow and a flat brush to do it!). I noticed Zooey doing this on a few occasions, so I thought it would be an interesting detail to include. It keeps the retro feel, but also makes it modern and not cliche or too crazy!

Red lips are slightly frightening...

A less scary lipstick option... me likey! But my bangs were not cooperating, sadly!

Products used:

Face:
NARS primer
MUFE HD foundation in #110
MAC Studio finish concealer in NW15

Carrie Underwood Inspired Makeup- Using DRUGSTORE products!

Hi everyone,

I'm currently waiting for my new video to load onto my computer from my camera, so I figured I would do a blog post previewing the look!

I've done a Carrie Underwood inspired makeup look, taken from her performance on American Idol last week for Idol Gives Back. I am using all drugstore products for this, except UDPP. Carrie almost ALWAYS has a cat-eye shaped smokey look when she's on TV or at events, with her lashes (fake!) helping to create that shape. Her eyeshadow shape is also quite rounded usually, instead of having a really sharp outer V like a lot of celebs do.

Hopefully this look will make Mike Fisher mistake me for Carrie in a brunette wig?

Brown/Blackish/Goldish smokey look, nude pink gloss, glowy cheeks. Really easy, ladies!

Products used:

EYES:
UDPP
Annabelle e/s Buff Naked
NYX Jumbo Pencil in Black Bean
NYX e/s in Eucalyptus
NYX e/s in Iced Mocha
Annabelle e/s in Ebony
Yves Rocher liquid eyeliner (I also recommend Rimmel liquid eyeliner!)
NYC black eyeliner pencil
Covergirl Lashblast length in black
Revlon lashes in Intensifying

Lips:
Rimmel gloss in East End Snob

FACE:
Marcelle foundation in Ivory
Loreal true match concealer
NYC creme blush in Big Apple Blush
Joe Fresh cheek tint in Nude
Jane bronzer in Sahara
Coastal Scents silica powder
Annabelle eyebrow pencil in Taupe

Let me know what you think!

xoxo Chloe
