Oh those roaring twenties… 20´s make up tutorial!

To watch the video, click on the title for a full version of the article. As I recommended before MAC make up is great so just a reminder in case of need. Women’s long hair was replaced by very “boyish”  haircut style , skirts shorter, a cigarrete in the hand, and ready for the Charleston!. A symbol of the woman liberation at the beginning of XX century… Then all you can do is to go the ” twenties flapper look” adding a short dress, the right shoes, a headband and string of pearls… so delightfully vintage now! And here also some suggested reading about women in those years. And here in detail  about 20’s make up.

Halloween angel or fairy eye make up tutorial

Interesting videotutorial by this girl that holds an entire make up channel in youtube. For the video she’s using MAC (professional make up) but it shows at real time speed and you can attempt to make something similar with your own eye shadows and brushes. I think the final effect is really stunning so have fun!
Though of course you can use your own make up, the fact is that MAC make up pigments are stunning and I myself have a very sensitive skin, so after trying many make up brands, most of mine is actually from theirs. You can purchase MAC make up here, you won’t regret, it’s the best make up ever. ENJOY!

Interesting video tutorial: how to make fairy wings!

I found this rather popular and interesting tutorial of “how to make fairy wings” that was showcased in tv program “crafters from coast to coast”. Curiously enough it’s made by a singer-songwriter  Emilie Autumn (yay for fairy artists!!,  I agree  myself there’s nothing more adorable than the feeling of wearing wings on stage!). The tutorial is rather clear and complete and very EASY… go for it!
