Lady Gaga's Marry the Night Make-Up Tutorial

I'm sure everyone has heard Lady Gaga's Marry the Night on the radio these last couple of months.. Have you seen the music video?

If not, here's your chance:

She has many different looks in this video, but the one that most stood out to me was the scene with her in the denim.

 

Here's my version..

1. Start off with a face primer to prevent the foundation from wearing off.

2. Apply your favorite foundation all over the face.

3. Next, use your favorite concealer to conceal blemishes, under circles and darkness.

4. Prime the eye lids to prevent the eyeshadow from crease and wearing off during the day.

--Remember to blend it in.

5. Starting from the end of your top lash line, take any dark plumy color and blend it from the end of your top lash line, through the crease, toward the ridge of your nose.

6. Apply a light pink-ish color to your lid.

7. Line your top lash line and bring out to a dramatic wing.

8. This part can be tricky. Take a gel eye liner and a thin liner brush. Start about a millimeter down from your tear duct and draw a line from that point all the way up connecting that line with the wing from the top liner.

*This step is completely optional. If you can't achieve this method of lining your lower lash line, then you can just line the bottom lash line however you feel comfortable.

9. Fill in the eye brows to make them more defined. Be sure to use the color closest or a shade lighter than your hair color.

10. Contour your face using the E 3 method to warm up the face. Apply the color to your temple, through the  hollow of your cheeks, down the bottom of the jaw.

11. Add your favorite Red lipstick.

Purple Smokey Eye: Adele's Instyle Magazine Article

Adele has graced the scene with her beautiful voice and charming looks. Her interview with the April issue of Instyle magazine was nothing less than perfection. Adeles beauty will be the talk of the century.

Here's my version..

1.) Prime your whole eye with NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk. This will make whatever color you put on your lid, pop.

2.) With a medium purple color, take an angled liner brush and trace a line going from a cetemeter above your tear duct and extend it out past your lash line; through the crease.

3.) Take a dark purple and smudge it over the line you created with the medium purple.

4.) With a blending brush, blend the color up toward your brow bone.

5.) Take a light purple; add this color to your brown bone and tear duct area.

6.) Remember the color you drew the line in your crease with? Take that color and put it all over the lid. Then, go in with a color a bit darker and blend it over the color you just added.

7.) Go back to the NYX Eye Pencil and line the water line.

8.) With the same dark purple used from before, smudge this on your lower lash line. Then, go back in with a black and smudge it in the with dark purple.

9.) With a sapphire blue gel liner, line your upper lash line and make a small wing.
