“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!!

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!!

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

Recreating a face chart i did for the Nocturnelle collection MAC released in Autumn 2006.

With color names like, Beauty Sleep, Deep Attraction, Wait Till Dark, Night Affair, Aloof, & Passionate I think the title is fitting, yah?
The original name for this look was “Devious Nature” thanks to Doozywhoop on twitter. So thanks for the idea!!

p.s. if you didn’t catch it already, my title is like a drag name of sorts for “nocturnal emission” s’mooooove.

Make sure you check out Amy’s ebay page to get Kryolan products!! http://www.shrinkle.com/ebay

Recreating my Smoke Signals face chart from Fall 2007. LOOOVE IT!!!

This is a true ‘Josh’ style makeup. I get asked a lot if I wear makeup on a daily basis.. NO! I only wear makeup if I’m going out to party, or somewhere I know lots of photos will be taken, so I don’t look busted! Even then, chances are good I’ll only wear concealer, powder, and brows. On those super rare times I feel like going all out, this is something you will be me rock in a heartbeat! Dark, matte, and smoky. YUM!

So here you go! Everything else you need to know is under the cut.
