❤ Wow, what a great night. ❤
Thank you to The Do Lab for another beautiful night of art, music, dance, costume, and
MY FAVORITE: MAKEUP!!!

So, this post is about the look I created to go with this awesome KUCOON matchie matchie Ms. Spratt hooked us up with!! (I ❤ her to death, btw). The whole idea was to make a twin look, with mine accented with gold, and my bff Ashley's with silver. Not a big huge challenge but still fun to nail it, right?!
First, I used the Urban Decay Shadow Primer (...there it is again! ❤Urban Decay!) to make sure my makeup HOLDS ALL NIGHT LONG!! Then on Ash I used a super silver MAC Pigment, and carefully piled it on!! Same story on myself, just with a lemony gold. I used A LOT of pigment to get a totally opaque look, because I used huge top & bottom false lashes, and I wanted to make sure the eyeshadow showed through. Exact steps are as follows:
  • curl lashes
  • rim eye in black kohl pencil
  • prime eyelids
  • draw in brows (this is key to getting a finished look on a glamorous makeup!)
  • pile on pigment of choice, or combo of pigments
  • apply a medium thick line of liquid eyeliner
  • first coat of mascara
  • Holy LASHES BATMAN!! (do both top & bottom now)
  • give them a little love from your mascara brush to stick to your real lashes
  • RED LIPS
...And voilà! You have an amazing, show stopping, kiss getting, yummy, beautiful Valentine's Day makeup. Yay!!!❤!!!


I am so filled with the love of makeup again, and I am having so much fun sharing with you all!!
❤❤❤
