Wow its day three already! Today I am (trying) to create a Taylor Swift look! Part of me thinks I need to get some contacts for next time because the looks would look so much better with the right eye colour! Anyway....
This Taylor Swift look is all about elongating the eyes. Its a cat eye technique which draws the eyes outward and upwards!
I must apologise for the lighting, it was a stormy dull day! Got to order some lighting system to be ready for the winter :)
What I used:
Cream Black Shadow (its new by BlankCanvasCosmetics but it hasn't come out yet)
Navy, Black & Cream eyeshadow by Sleek Bohemian palette
I knew starting the week I wanted to do create a Demi look because I think her makeup is prefect and fun! So here are the two looks I picked. The make-up is actually very similar with only small differences.
I try and copy her hair which changes all the time so its hard to keep up with her but I do love her hair so much! So when cheryl started spotting a light caramel brown I wanted to follow suit!
Unfortunately I have dark hair SO I wasn't sure if it would be possible to go that much lighter at home without making a MESS!
I should also explain that I am CHEAP and I don't have the money to get it done professionally even though it would be easy to just get it done by a professionally.
I thought if I'm gonna do it, I'm gonna do it right and not too light too quickly so I slowly (and I mean slowly) dyed it lighter and lighter till I got it just right yay!
It took me the whole summer and it was great to have lighter hair because I now realise one thing - I DO NOT LIKE LIGHT HAIR ON ME! lol but it was fun!
But look at Cheryl now! Back to dark!! Yay I love this colour on her!
Getting your make-up just right for that special day can seems impossible but it doesn't have to be!
I have tutorials that will get help you get photo ready!

One tip I will give you
Dark skin - Highlight More

2. Matchy Matchy
I am not the biggest fan of matching the same tones in your dress with your makeup but I don't see the harm in coordination them, So lets talk colours!
For Blue/Navy Tones
You could try this look -
(by the way my dress is from New look)
Black & White Dresses
The most popular question I seem to get is about matching makeup to black or white (or both) dresses, I always say that a red lips and liner really seem to work!
This look work prefect for photographs too so its a complete look!
This one is a little bit more vintage but it equally works
Mixed Dresses
My new tutorial is a look for any dress!!
These are the most popular looks I get asked about but feel free to leave a comment with your dress colours! I am going on a break with my boyfriend Jonathan for a while but when I get back I will update with new look, just leave a comment!
