Gaga Part 2!

Here it is, the second part of my Gaga dress up!

This looks was inspired by the ‘Sandwich’ scene in the Telephone video

How I did the eyes –

• I primed my eyelids with UDPP, and stuck some selotape along the outer corner of my eye towards the end of my eyebrow
• I then wet an eyeshadow brush and created a paste/creamy eye shadow with The Body Shops shimmer cubes 19, shade 04 sparkling sky and placed it all over my lid up to the crease – like so
• (yes, the only tape in my room was decorated in leopard print!)
• I then picked up a blender brush and blended black eyeshadow (MACs Beauty Marked) in the crease of my eye and up outwards.
• Then I lined my water lines with black kohl, and a little of the blue paste, and smudged some kohl onto my lower lash line.
• I then placed a shimmery gold eyeshadow (MAC’s Nylon) onto my brow bone and in the inner corner of my eye for definition.
• Filled my brows in and added mascara!

It took about 25 mins to do the whole look which was quite speedy for a look I’ve never practised before!  The look lasted the 6 hours until I got home from work completely, it didn’t smudge at all – that’s why UDPP is my holy grail primer.
 
I decided not to wear any false lashes this time as I wanted the blue to stand out, and I didn’t want my eyes to feel heavy again through work, but if I was dressing up properly I would have worn them!  The lipstick I used was TBS #59 which is a gorgeous neon pink, and I used my favourite blusher of the moment, TBS #12 Apricot Shimmer.
Hope you girlies liked this one as much as the last! They are both very opposite looks but so fun to do! Let me know what you think!

Gaga Part 1!

Hey girlies!  Today at work, it was ‘Gaga’ Day, and we had to dress up like the goddess herself!  I thought I would pop up some pictures of how I wore my make-up for my shift!

My look based based on and inspired by her opening look in the prison sequence in her music video for Telephone

It took me very long time to do, I’m not quite sure why, it was just getting the shape of her eye shadow in the crease of my eye which was difficult, but I think I got there finally!


If anyone wants to know how I did this I -

• Primed my eyelids, then used a white eyeshadow all over my lids, up to the brow bone.
• I then used a combination of brown eyeshadows and blended it into the crease of my eye, following the natural curve of my eyebrow.  I also blended it down to the inside corner of my eye and a tad down my nose bone to give extra definition.
• I then lined my top and bottom lashes with a liquid liner, and extended the flick out
• I applied the biggest eyelashes I could find!
• Oh, and then I filled my brows in big time! First with a brown pencil liner, then with a black pencil to give more of an arch.

On to the lips -

• I lined my lips in black kohl eye liner
• Then applied a red lipstick
• And then blended them both together with a lipstick brush! Easy Peasy!

This is me at work -

My mummy helped do my hair – She made two small plaits either side of my head, and pinned them together at the top of my head with a pink bow – just to add some crazyhairness.
What does everyone think of my attempt?  I did feel a tad self conscious out and about at first, but I got used to it.  The eyelashes were so heavy though, I ended up taking them off three hours into my shift! I have to dress up again as Gaga on Saturday and I’m going to do a completley different Gaga look for then, which of course I’ll take pictures off!! XX
