Adeles Grammy Makeup Tutorial

alanaDIY Hair/MakeUp

Adele looked STUNNING at the Grammys! She was by far best all around with her makeup, hair, gown! I can just go on and on about how gorgeous she looked. So my picture is a little exposed due to the flash but if you watch the video I recreated EXACTLY how Adeles makeup looked for the red carpet and for her performance! She went for the classic old Hollywood look and she pulled it off perfectly!

I love that she made this album from her past experience with an EX. We all have those “bad” experiences but the fact her album was successful her EX must be kicking himself in the butt right now! hahah I love it!

So here is the 2nd look. All her makeup Artist did was add a little bit more color to her crease and instead of her bright red lip they gave her more of a natural pink lipstick.

Click on the video below to see how to get this look and what products to use!

Hope you all LOVE it! For more of my videos click go to youtube.com/LadyArt7 (click on link).

Matte Heart Nails

alanaBeauty Tips DIY

Count Down:

2 Days til LOVE day! if you have that special someone you are going to spend your V.Day with you should manicure your nails to look like these. It says Valentines Day without being in your face! How adorable are these?

I used China Glaze black nail polish.

and China Glaze Matte Magic nail polish! this is my new favorite. All you have to do is apply a coat or 2 on top of any color polish and it turns the polish into a flat finish! AMAZING!

So here is another picture of my fabulous nails without the red heart on my ring finger.

To learn how I did the hearts and see exactly what I did step by step check out my video below.

I hope you guys LOVE!!!

How to Apply The Perfect Red Lip

alanaDIY Hair/MakeUp

Its no surprise that I LOVE bright lips. Its my favorite thing to do! If I HAD to choose one piece of makeup to live with for the rest of my life (thank God I don’t really have to do that) but I would definitely have to keep my red lips.

See I’m telling you… Same bright lip, Different day.

I have done many Red Carpet events in my days and anytime someone is not sure about trying on a bright lip, I apply it on just so they can see it and they end up LOVING it.

Like… April, Trey Songz mom. I do her makeup when she is in town attending events with her son. This is her with a bright lip, I talked her into doing this for a premiere she was attending and she loved it.

You would be surprised on how many steps can go into achieving the perfect red lip. I mean you obviously don’t do these steps everyday but when you are attending a red carpet event or taking pictures all night long these steps make a difference!

Anyway… Here is a special video I put together showing you how to apply the perfect bright lip!

What piece of makeup can you not live with out?

Smokey Eye Tutorial

alanaDIY Hair/MakeUp

Hey guys, I was watching American Idol the other day and Jennifer Lopez had this amazing smokey eye! Her eyes were super dark and she had this light pale pink lipstick on. I mean… she is gorgeous anyway so I would think that any makeup she had on would look amazing! haha but it inspired me anyway to create another fun, simple tutorial. If you guys have any other suggestions on what I should show or do differently please let me know.

The video below shows every step and every product I used so make sure to check it out!

Though I got inspired by Jennifer Lopez, every celebrity loves to do a smokey eye wether its on or off the red carpet. Kim Kardashian especially! Since she is so popular with the smokeyness I decided to name yet another video after her. lol Hope you guys enjoys this!

Hello Kitty Santa Nails

alanaBeauty Tips DIY

With my love for Hello Kitty, like most of you! I wanted to create a fun Hello Kitty Christmas inspired nail art tutorial, so this is what I came up with. Red bows for your tips and a Hello Kitty wearing a Santa Claus hat. This is nne of my favorite nail designs I have created so far

What I used:

Salon Perfects nail polishes to create this design, you can only purchase these polishes at WalMart, you will also need a toothpick to outline.

I know that this picture may look hard to do but with the video below I made it SUPER simple to get this look.

Pop Art Halloween Makeup

alanaDIY Hair/MakeUp

Last week I turned myself into pop art! a Roy Lichtenstein inspired look. I know I look kinda freaky but I love it! lol

I wanted to create something different, something that you don’t see too often for Halloween. I want to give you guys some ideas b/c its my favorite time of the year and I always have a hard time looking for the best costume.

This looks really hard but I broke the steps down so you guys can follow it pretty easily.

There are 2 different pop art looks in the video, the 1st one is a little simpler where there are dots just around the eyes, and the second look is a little more enhanced where there are red dots all over the face and drawn on tear drops etc…

1st Look

2nd Look

I hope you guys love the video! Don’t Forget I have A LOT MORE tutorials and Ideas for Halloween so come back & visit our blog or my channel at youtube.com/LadyArt7
