FOTD: Rihanna-Inspired Grammys Look

The Grammys aired a couple of days on the 28th and there were a lot of great looks. One of the looks that stood out in particular to me was Rihanna's when she was performing her song with DJ Khaled "Wild Thoughts". She had a beautiful purple eyeshadow that complemented her dress beautifully. According to her makeup artist, Rihanna was wearing products from her Fenty Beauty line that have not been released. I cannot wait to see what she has up her sleeve.

I used some shadows from MAC to recreate this look the best way I can. For my cheeks and lips, I applied a creamy blush to add a dewy look. Overall, I loved recreating this look. The colors were very pretty and it was really easy to execute. Would definitely wear this out.

Beyonce "Why Don't You Love Me" Inspired FOTD

"Why Don't You Love Me" is one of my favorite videos by Beyonce. I love the retro style and clothes and the makeup was just incredible. I also love that little cheeky short where she's dusting her Grammys.

JLo 2015 Golden Globes Makeup Look

I've mentioned often how much I adore JLo. She is a style icon and she manages to just slay every event she goes to. She is sexy but always manages to keep it classy. So here I was, watching the red carpet for the Golden Globes and here she comes looking AH-mazing. How does she do it??? Anyway, I was loving her makeup. That smokey eye paired with dewy, bronzy skin looked awesome. 

Beyonce "Countdown" Makeup Tutorial

First of all I would like to apologize for the iffy editing, I was using a different editing program and it wouldn't let me adjust the sound for each individual clip, which explains why the sound is so low in the beginning.

I really like the video to this song, it's fun and colorful. I did this tutorial based on the look Beyonce is wearing in the very beginning of the video. I loved the Audrey Hepburn homage. Enjoy!

Fall Smokey Eye Tutorial (Inspired by Kim Kardashian)

This is a smokey eye that's great for Fall because of the brown added to it. It's inspired by Kim Kardashian. My first celebrity-inspired tutorial, yay!

For smokey eyes or other looks with dark eye makeup, I recommend putting your concealer on AFTER. It's easier to tidy up and your under eyes won't come out looking greenish which tends to happen. A little tip I forgot to include in the video. Anyway, Enjoy!
