New Years Look!

Okay lovelies, here is my *official* New Years Look! This was a completely random creation, but I really love it! It’s a black to dark plum gradient with a obvious bright blue glitter. I realize the purple doesn’t show up in the cut crease, but trust me it’s there. I used Avon’s Midnight Plum and a black for the cut crease color. MAC’s Electric Eel and Hard Candy Gliterazzti in blue complete the lid color. Add a basic matte nude color for a brow highlight and a shimmery white as the inner corner highlight ( I used a white with blue reflex) and your done! Very simple, but does take patience to blend the crease and wait for the glitter to dry.

*TIP: If your using the Glitterazzti or any other liquid glitter, simply mix it with a clear drying eyelash glue ( I used my Duo), this will adhere the glitter perfectly without creasing it! It also won’t budge a bit, but it’s still super east to remove! All you have to do is use some makeup remover and a cotton ball, or just rub it with your finger ( flashback of playing with Elmer’s school glue as a kid much? Remember how it would get on your fingers and when it dried all you had to do was rub it and the friction would remove it? Same concept here)! Neat huh?

Anyway, here’s the look:

Copycat: Michelle Phan New Year’s Look 2011

Hi lovelies! I have been neglecting my old blog, so I just made a new one! But don’t worry, the old one is still visible, this is just my new main blog now.

Anyway, onto the purpose of this post. Upon looking through my subscriptions uploads, I stumbled upon Michelle Phan’s New Years Look Video and I LOVED it! So I decided to re-create it. The pictures don’t show the look as well as it looks in person, which is why the look is not getting a video.

Michelle’s Video:

I just adore the pop of pink color behind the smokey blues!

 

And here is my rendition:
