Inspiration Pic:
I decided to give my take on one of the many beyonce music videos that are out there right now. I didn't really fancy the make up she had in the "Party" music video. In the video for "Countdown" she had the make up look pictured above in various colors (green, orange, etc). All of them featured a bright pop of color on the lid space, and a cut crease with winged liner. A cut crease is a popular arabic make up technique where the eyelid is "cut" by using a dark color to create a line of separation between the lid color and the crease color. The separation of these two colors is very obvious and not blended. It's a challenging look to do because the crease cut must be very precise and clean. The crease color has to be blended upwards, not downwards onto the lid space.
