Into the Night Makeup Look

This is the makeup look I did for Michelle Phan's Tiesto & SanDisk Into the Night Contest.





This is the makeup look I did for Michelle Phan's Tiesto & SanDisk Into the Night Contest. The theme was night out makeup & or outfits (clubs, parties, etc.)I wore my simple, black, ruched sleeved dress from Urban Outfitters, which I have not even worn anywhere in real life since I haven't had the right occasion to wear it. I guess I could always dress it down. A tutorial wasn't required for this contest but I went ahead & made a video showing the process. It's a very busy look & is not easy to do but you can always take the idea & make it into something more simple.



Products used for this look:

Mary Kay eye primer
MAC Blacktrack fluidline
Mary Kay eye shadow 'Golden' (I use this a lot-it's one of my favorites!)
Shimmery, dark teal color (WHALES palette)
Matte black eye shadow
Body Shop eye shimmer '02'
Beauty Rush Luminous (powdered)Shadow 'Copper Feel' + Visine=eye liner (These two products work great for that)
Hot Topic turquoise glitter
Salon Perfect lashes #45
Mary Kay 'Sparking Cidre' blush

Purple, Glitter & Sigma Animal Inspired Makeup

I haven't updated this lately & so this post will consist of two looks.
The following look was a pretty simple makeup look that I did for my first 'live' tutorial on Youtube. I used GDE, NYX, and Milani Minerals for that look. The lighting, angles, & quality in that vid. were not great but i'm slowly learning.





This second look was for a Sigma makeup contest on Youtube, which was also a live tutorial. The theme of the contest was animals-any type of animal-so I chose the Parrot Fish. I was inspired by its colors & circle spots. I had recently seen a makeup photo done by the MUA Dana Delaney which consisted of a circle like pattern similar to mine, which also inspired me.







This was my rough draft/sketch of my idea. I have been doing this lately to have a guide while actually doing the makeup. There have been so many times when my makeup turned out completely different than what I had in mind.






Products used for this look:
Garage sale stickers+hole puncher
Urban Decay Primer Potion
Still Glamorus Cosmetics blush 'Bubble Gum'
Spell Cosmetics loose shadow 'Manic'
Bright, matte yellow from WALES palette
Mac e/s 'Rule'
Hot pink & light pink e/s from palette
Mac 'Wondergrass' & 'Eye popping' e/s
White matte e/s from palette
Mac blacktrack fluidline
Paji lashes (I got two pairs from the 99 cent store)
Mac 'Morange' l/s
Sigma, Mary Kay, & Costco makeup brushes







And lastly, these were my nails from last week. I was really happy with how they turned out.
