So, of course, being on youtube all the time, I see ads a lot. Though, I suppose everyone sees a lot of ads, regardless... But! I saw this ad, and I totally loved the makeup, so I decided to recreate it as best as I could... slight alterations... you know. It kinda looks alienish, or techo-fabulous on me, but I tried. I almost didn't post it, because I filmed basically the whole thing in the wrong white balance (read: OMGIWANTEDTOSHOOTMYSELFINTHEFACEWTF), and I wasn't sure if I even liked the way it turned out on camera, but everything turned out okay, and I stopped being such a wet uh... towel? Is that the saying? Well, whatever they say, that's what I meant.
But yeah, this look was really liner heavy, and um... I feel like I haven't dealt with liquid liner in a long time... But then again, I don't ever really do my makeup at all, outside of making these videos. But liquid liner is the hardest part! But regardless, I did a damn good job on the non-tutorial eye! I surprised my damn self when I was taking out my blemishy face for the pictures. The tutorial eye is another story. We don't talk about them...
Watch, in five years, I'm gonna look back and be like "what in the hells was I thinking..."
Blurry, and slightly weird in color, but it's a cool thumbnail. |

And I wanted to point out that the layering of steamy and platinum was BEAUTIFUL! It gave such depth and complexity, and I loved it. That is all.
I think I've finally had enough, I think I maybe think too much,

P.S. It's late, and I caught several typos when writing this, so if shit doesn't make sense, that's why.
