“I look up into the night sky and see a thousand eyes staring back, & all around these golden beacons, I see nothing but black!!”

I love that song! Anyway, it’s been a while since I did a “Josh” look. If you take a look at some of my tutorials you can tell the “Josh” looks apart from the others. They’re something I would wear out and about if I decided I wanted to wear makeup for the night. I get really into the look & they all look similar; dark, super dramatic, & with lots of lash!!

A very quick & simple way to achieve a toned down smoked out look. Normally when I do a smoky eye for myself I extend the color out, I love the drama it creates. But once in a while you want something a little more toned down. This also helps those who want to try smoking out their shadows for the first time but don’t want the “drag queen going to the club” look that I go for, hah! Photos & full list of products used after the jump.

I recorded a tutorial, and while editing I realized it looked almost identical to my Emerald Dragon look, instead of posting it and saying “this is the same thing with dupes” I decided to just record something new. While recording the colors reminded me of something stereotypically girlie because of the colors I was using. It also started to remind me of a long Jem shirt my sister wore pretty much every day during the 80’s. Sometimes it was a shirt, sometimes she would belt it into a dress, other times it was tied in a knot on the side… Typical 80’s! So that’s where the name came from, since Jem really is truly outrageous! Maybe I’ll do a look inspired by Pizzazz next…. You never know!

With imagination and the Barney Bag, we’ll see what we can make today!! Hah.

I needed to think of a color combination to do for this tutorial, so I asked people on my Facebook page to name a color. I took first 25 responses, and used the most popular color from those 25 suggestions. They picked green. I did the same thing for Twitter but this time purple came out on top. So those were the 2 main colors for my look. I had find a way to make it not look like Barney though, especially since that color combination is easily associated with the big purple lump of love. There’s not much else to say about the look besides the fact I added more black to the look after I finished recording. What can I say, I like my eyeshadow DARRRRKK!!

This is part two of the other video I posted on Tuesday. I turn the daytime/neutral look into something a little more (me!) dramatic. During recording the first video and this one I recorded a lip tutorial on how to perfect lip color, and decided to leave that color on to show how just changing something as simple as the lips can change the whole look. Then you also see how it looks with the more dramatic eye, which shows you can create a multitude of looks just by tweaking the products you already have on. Product list and photos after the jump.

Try it and have fun with it!

If you complain about something I do, it only makes me want to do it even more, and that is where this look came from. I got complaints for ‘too many’ drag videos, when they were talking about my everyday makeup tutorials. So to make them happy, we did it up super pretty pretty princess pageant style! A full list of products used and photos are after the jump!

Starting a new series, based on things in the night sky. So, planets, stars, asteroids, galaxies, horse-head nebula, etc. etc. For the first tutorial I’m just going right to the main thing.. The sky, a night sky to be exact. Everything revolving around outer space has to start with the sky (at least when looking at everything from here on Earth). Remember, if this is to much look for you just tone it down, don’t extend everything so far out, wear a nude lip, anything! There are many many ways to alter a look to better fit your own personal style. Just do whatever you find best fits in your own comfort zone. Think of tutorials more like we’re drawing the outline, and you fill in the picture however you want, not a color by numbers book where you have to do it exactly how it says. Thats boring! With all that said, make sure you check out the video below.

I posted a photo on the look, & a full list of all the products I used after the jump. Read more
