I was totally inspired by Lady Gaga's sexy-androgynous-futuristic music video for Born This Way, and immediately was so drawn to this look. Although prosthetics are used in the face for the video, especially for the cheekbones, shoulders and forehead, I wanted to imitate the angular look by contouring. The eyes are very oval and extremely dark blue and black.
I didn't show how I cover my eyebrows in this video because quite honestly I'm not particularly good at it, but I use the glue stick method. There's many videos on Youtube that show you how to do that.

I like how you gave an alternative to having prosthetic face pieces with the contouring. Looks fabulous! You're such an inspiration to try new and fun things :)

Your makeup looks so beautiful that I didn't even notice your eyebrows are covered!

Gorgeous as always! What is the nail polish you are wearing for the Born this Way tutorial? Thanks!

I love the makeup you did! AWESOME! But I do not support Lady Gaga in the slightest and never will.

You give a good tutorial! Not quite the same as the look in the video, but good interpretation of it anyways. Had you angled the tape on the temples to connect with the corner of the eyes, and brought the centre triangle down rather than up the horns would have been more similarly shaded to recreate her prosthetic ones!

WOW! I would never imagine that this tecnique would give just an incredible result like this, its amazing! It looks just like her, and you're very breve to do this kind of look on youtube, it definily looks aawsome!

Der neue Indefectible Eyeshadow von L'Oreal in "All Night Blue" ist eine gute Alternative für das Illamasqua-Pigment...nur so am Rande/für die, die's interessiert ;)
Liebe Grüße aus Deutschland,
