GRADUATION: from day into night - inspired by Lady Gaga in Alejandro!

      It's that time of the year again!! I know this is a little late - colleges & universities have graduated already (congrats!!) - but I'm sure elementary and high school students still have less than a month to go! I've been meaning to re-create this look for awhile since... this was actually basically the same bronzey look I used leaving the world of high school :O. Of course, I didn't have the Alice palette back then - but I was lucky enough to have owned those two MAC shadow + pigments which were actually Christmas presents (thanks Trish!) :)
      Now, for those on a budget, you could easily use Maybelline EyeStudio Quad in Give Me Gold, as well as other drugstore shadows.

      Lucky me, Alejandro premiered and gave me more creative inspiration!







DAY & NIGHT
( sweeping my bangs to the side, doesn't the darker-lips look have a pin-up-y feel to it? )

Video & list of products after the jump!







      Um. I'm not gonna lie - I didn't realize my first (left) eye had a smokey-er & more dramatic cat-eye than the one I did in the tutorial. I just had more time focusing on copying Gaga's look for practice, but when the camera was on, I guess you could say I got kinda nervous :s
      ....so LITERALLY this SHOWS two different looks - as simple or as dramatic as you like :) ha!
