Gwen Stefai - What You Waiting For? inspired makeup (wearable)

Hello everyone~
This is the first of 2 looks that have been inspired by the wonderful, Gwen Stefani~ in particular, her music video "What You Waiting For?" from 2004. Gwen Stefani has vintage style makeup which is a timeless look, and suits everyone~ it's easy to do and can be paired with petty much any lipstick, so I will show you 4 different lipsticks with this look.
If you haven't seen the music video for Gwen Stefani's song, "What You Waiting For?", here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5qICl3Fr3w 
And without further-or-do, let's begin~

First I applied a toner, moisturiser and a primer to my face. After that I used a foundation of my choice and concealed any blemishes with a concealer.

grrr... annoying hair >:|

Once that was done, I filled in my brows using the lightest brown in my brow box, then I used a brow mascara on top. I used a primer on my eyelids to prevent my eye shadow from creasing.

I used a matte cream coloured eye shadow all over my eyelid and I used it as a brow highlight (1)

I used a light matte brown (2) in my crease and made a wing shape with it. I deepened it up with a darker matte brown (3) and blended it all together and out. I used the same brown eye shadows and blended them on my lower lash line too. I then used a shimmery eye shadow (4) as an inner corner highlight.

 I applied a highlighter to my cheek bones, down my nose, cupids bow and chin.

After that I used a powder where ever my skin needed to be powdered - I avoided where I put the highlight. I then used a lip balm to prep my lips for lipstick.

 I applied a white eyeliner to my waterline to open up my eyes, then I used a black gel liner to create a wing.
To get a perfect wing, line by you lashes first, and apply your liner thinly and with short strokes, you can make it thicker later. For the wing, you want to follow your water line and carefully draw a straight line. The eye shadow that we applied earlier will help you out! Once you've drawn the line, you want to connect it to the line by your lashes, so you draw another line going straight down towards your lashes, you should have a triangular shape, you now want to fill in this shape.

I applied mascara on my top and bottom lashes.

I used a bronzer as a contouring colour and I contoured my cheek bones.

Now I shall show you 4 lipsticks that match with this look, the first is a traditional red lip.

The next, a bright orange lip.

Next, a bright pink lip with blue-y undertones.

And finally, a light baby pink lip.

Of course you can wear any lipstick you like!

Thank you for reading, I hope you like this look and there will be a Gwen Stefani crazy makeup look coming soon that's inspired from her music video colours "What You Waiting For?"

Thanks again for reading~

Something dramatic~

Hello everyone~
I haven't played with makeup for a while, all i've been doing is my usual looks and inspired looks and I wanted to have some fun, and I wanted to try out my new brushes~ I just looked at all of my makeup and thought something smokey would be nice, but did I want to do a black smokey eye, or a bright one? I had no idea. But, I eventually came up with this look, so if you would like to know how I got this look:

Please keep on reading~

I've already applied toner and moisturiser to my skin. After that, I used Etude House BB Cream, and then I used MAC's Painterly Paint Pot as a primer for my eyes.

I used Natural Collection's white eye liner and started to line my eyes. I lined above my crease and made a wing shape, I also brought the liner under my eyes and I filled it all in. I didn't care if it wasn't even, as long as it was white, then it was fine by me~

Once I was satisfied with that, I set it in place with a cream/white eye shadow. I used a matte cream shadow from Soap&Glory.

Next I used the colour Naked (1) from the Urban Decay NAKED palette and outlined the white wing, blending it out slightly. I then used Buck (2) from the same palette and blended it in the inner part of my eye by the bridge of my nose.

I used the Sleep Ultra Mattes palette to deepen the inner part of my eye. I used the dark brown (3) in the palette first, and I made sure I blended this out well. I also used this colour to go over the Naked eye shadow that was outlining my white wing. I used the matte black eye shadow to define the inner part of my eye even more and I slightly blended this down towards my nose to give the illusion of a slimmer nose.

For my eyebrows I used Sleek's natural palette and took a dark matte brown (1) from that to create flicks, giving a hairy brow effect. I used the same matte black eye shadow and pressed it lightly against my lash line.

After that, I applied concealer where I needed it, I use Collection 2000's concealer in Fair, I set my makeup into place with Rimmel London's Stay Matte powder and I applied EOS lip balm to my lips to prep them for lipstick.

I applied a good layer of Pump Up Lash mascara by Miss Sporty on my top lashes only. 

For contouring, I used the same Soap&Glory palette as before, but I used the matte brown shade and blended this into my cheek bones. (Yes, this is the face you will have to make~) I blended this out with the dusty rose colour from the palette.

To add a bit of colour to the face, I used Natural Collection's blush in Pink Cloud.
For a highlight, I used a matte white eye shadow from Sleek's natural palette (1) on the bridge of my nose, cheek bones, cupids bow, chin and forehead. I went over this with Virgin from the Urban Decay NAKED palette (2).

I muted out my lips with my concealer, then I used MAC's Creme Cup lipstick and lightly dabbed this on my lips.

Originally, I thought I was done, but something felt like it was missing...

I thought I would add some eyeliner, because, in my opinion, eyeliner makes everything look better~
I used MAC's Blitz & Glitz gel liner and lined my eyes. I winged it out long and thinly, making sure I didn't go over the white wing.

Aaaaand that's it!
I had fun doing this~ it's nice to play around with makeup and see what happens.

Thank you very much for reading!
