My First Makeup Tutorial on YouTube!!!!

I am so blessed to go to Paul Mitchell the School Costa Mesa and I had the opportunity to enter a contest with CAO Cosmetics to film a makeup tutorial using their amazing products!  I have always wanted to start filming tutorials, but was too scared to.  I have to say it was a ton harder than I imagined.  Props go out to all the YouTube gurus out there, because it is hard to talk the entire time!!!

The look that I chose to do was a modern twist on the always classy Pin-Up look.  My beautiful friend Mel was my model and my dear friend Ronnie filmed it for me.  I also had Kwinn pop in and gave moral support half way through it. 

The founder of CAO was a guest speaker at our school and I unfortunately was not able to meet him, but I am lucky enough to have their basic makeup kit!!! It is the perfect starter kit for anyone that wants to start doing makeup or wants for themselves.  My favorite part of the kit is the basic concealer pallet.  To the untrained eye it may appear that there are tons more colors than you would think about using, BUT I show you how to use all of them in my video!

Here are the links to the stuff I used:

First Fashion Show

Can't believe i have been in school for almost six months already! Time has been flying by!!! It probably helps that i have fun activities like this amazing fashion show i worked on for Fun-Raising at Paul Mitchell the School Costa Mesa.  This was my first fashion show ever and i learned a ton.  I learned that i should have pushed myself to be more creative, and i learned a ton about myself.  I was so lucky to have two beautiful models and to collaborate with two talented stylists.  Our inspiration was Horton Hears a Who.

Jazmin on the left and Tanya on the right

Jazmin in the pink was supposed to be the puff the Who's live on

Tanya was the vulture

To build the head pieces we used wire as the mold and attached synthetic hair with old school hair spray and spray adhesive to make it stick together.  We then pinned the pieces into place and covered the edges with hair.  For Jazmin i used an airbrush gun to color her hair a light pink. For Tanya we corn rowed half of her hair and teased the rest in the back up.

For makeup on Jazmin i used an airbrush gun to lighten her complexion and used a glue stick and concealer to cover her eyebrows.  I then used eyelash glue to attach the feathers.  I lined her eyes with winged black liner and attached false lashes to her top lashes and another set to the top of her cheeks.  I then used concealer to cover her lips and line with pink in a heart shape and filled with purple eyeshadow.

Makeup for Tanya was pretty simple.  On her face her regular foundation was applied and feathers were applied to her eyebrows.  Then black eyeshadow was applied to her lids, black liner, and false lashes.  A stencil of netting was used with an airbrush gun to apply the pattern to her skin.  Her lips we lined on the edges with black 24-7 eyeliner from Urban Decay and in the center filled in with bright orange lip liner to look like a beak.

The Finished Product

To see the other amazing creations from other stylist, you can watch this clip HERE, at 3:44 you can see Tanya.  I can't wait to show you more fun stuff.

Lots of Love,

Casie
