Lady Gaga 'Born This Way' Inspired Make-Up Look

Hey guys! So, today is a very exciting day for all you little monsters out there! We witnessed the re-birth of the mother monster... or the premier of Lady Gaga's highly anticipated music video for the awesome song 'Born This Way' which EVERYONE is talking about! The video was only released a few hours ago, but I decided to get straight in there and film this look as soon as the video premiered! I gotta stay on top of my game you know! Haha!
Anyway, this look is based on the screenshot from the video below. I also created her famous 'horns' using some clever contouring. Hope you like it!

Editorial Inspired Make-Up Look

Hey guys! So, this look is inspired by the final of America's Next Top Model season five. During the runway show, I saw this look on one of the models and instantly loved it! Also, my friend Rebecca from school has just started a youtube channel (http://www.youtube.com/JellyBeanBexii) and she used her Sleek palette in her latest tutorial. I haven't played around with my Sleek stuff in a while so I thought this would be the perfect opportunity, seeing as the Storm palette has all the colours I needed to create this look! Anyways, I hope you like it!

Next Level Haters?

Ok, so I know I'm all like 'F**k you' to the haters, but I feel the need to blog about this.
So we all know that whatever happens on the internet, theres gonna be haters. It's inevitable and pretty much comes hand in hand with being on youtube. I get the odd hater comment, that doesn't bother me at all but I think the 'hatred' of the youtube beauty community has reached new highs. I have discovered an entire forum (yes, ENTIRE FORUM) dedicated to people trash talking and flaming people on youtube. I was so shocked by some of the things that I saw on there, including horrible comments about MY FRIENDS that I know from youtube. I'm not going to mention any names but it was pretty harsh. All I can say is, thank god I'm not on there! Hold on though... does that mean I'm not famous enough to have that kind of hate? I'f that's the case, I want to stay in obscurity because I am actually terrified that I wouldn't be able to handle comments like the ones being left on this forum.
Actually, nahh. I don't want to remain in the shadows just because some stupid little keyboard warriors (who have no lives of their own, sit and watch the likes of xSparkage and Petrilude, bathing in their own little puddle of jealousy that radiates from their idiot little bodies) are just going to hate on me. BOO HATERS! STOP HATING!

Common Make-Up Mistakes

So, I was watching a certain make-up guru's video about make up mistakes and I realised that hey! I should do a video like that WITHOUT BEING A TOTAL DICK ABOUT IT! God, there's actually nothing wrong with being nice once in a while! All I am going to do in my video is talk to you guys about how to improve any mistakes you might make with your make up. I am NOT going to tell you that you look 'gross' or 'disgusting' because thats me. I have this amazing ability to talk to people as if they are human beings! I think some gurus forget that actual people watch their videos...
Anyway, this is turning into a bit of a bitch-fest, but the video will be up soon, plus a blog post with all the information that you need to go with the video! :)

Hair Plans!

Hey guys! So I was just sitting around thinking today, and I decided that I am going to dye my hair red. Not like pillar-box red but a nice deep darkish red. Now this proves a bit of a problem, because my hair is currently dyed jet black and damaged to f**k! Sorry, I couldn't think of any other words to describe it there!
Anyways, I have come up with this list after a bit of research. It includes tips, for myself really, on how I can get my hair back into some kind of decent condition before the big transformation!

EARTH Element Inspired Make-Up Look

Hey guys! OMG I absolutely love this look! Excuse me while I have a makeup-gasm...
*ahem*
Anyways, this is a mock contest entry to my element theme contest. I will be doing looks for all 4 elements but I have chosen to start with Earth. First of all, I did a wearable neutral look on the top lid, as some of the personality traits of Earth astrological signs are calmness and togetherness, so I did quite a subtle look first of all. I then added greens under the eye to represent forests and woodland. The best bit of this look is definitely the leopard print! I wanted to show my links to animals of the earth, so I think this awesome pattern embodies that quite well! I also added glossy lips, flirty lashes and winged liner because the earth element relates to feminine energy. Anyhow, I'm gonna stop waffling before you fall asleep reading this!
