“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!!

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!

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.
