Shazaam.... Foxy Cleopatra (Beyonce) Halloween Makeup Tutorial

I have had this fro wig for years... and I have worn it a few times, but have never really used it for an inspired look.  Though I must admit - I am not the biggest fan of Austin Powers movies - I did like the character Foxy Cleopatra played by Beyonce - so I figured I could try to replicate this look.

I didn't have a gold top or dress - it's not something you will see in my wardrobe often... I think it's just a little too flashy for me... so you won't see me in gold often. lol  But, I was able to find one of my gold scarves and used that to add a touch of gold to my outfit.  

 

I am also sporting a single sided silver hoop - just like in her photo... what do you think, do I make a good impersonator? lol  I know I need to comb out my Afro a little though. lol

I filmed a tutorial on this look - but it has been such a crazy week, I haven't gotten around to editing it.  But as soon as I do - I will upload it to my channel and maybe post the link below.  I did list all the products below so that who ever had an interest to do so - could recreate it on their own.  It is actually a really easy look - it's the glitter and lashes that really bump this look up. ;)

Enjoy!

Sexy, Sultry and Gorgeous... Leopard Makeup, Pictures & Tutorial

I really wanted to do something very wearable for Halloween but still something that was really sexy and easy to create.  Everyone who knows me, knows I absolutely love leopard and cheetah print and this was an awesome opportunity to do an inspired look.

I got the leopard ears from Claire's - it was on sale, buy one get one free because I purchased it in the middle of October... I got a pair of mouse ears (or at least I think that is it mouse ears) and these at the same time.  I was really excited to get them. ;)  

I used a combination of my favorite products to recreate this look.

EYES: 

Primer:  Eyeshadow Worx - Coastal Scents

Liners: 

Black eyeliner - MAC's gel liner in Black Track Fluid Line

Brown liner for crease - Urban decay's 24/7 liner in Whisky

Eye Shadows:  

Motives Vanilla Shadow

Lancome's Pose (metallic) Shadow 

Lancome's Daylight (Matte) shadow

MAC's Carbon shadow

Mascara:  Rimmel London's Lash Accelerator Mascara 

For the Leopard Spots:

Black Eyeliner (pencil) - Urban Decays 24/7 liner in Zero

Leopard spots (glitter):  NYX's glitter eyeliner in Mocha Latte

Lips:

Revlon's Colorburst lipgloss in Gold dust

I had a lot of fun creating this look.  I wanted it to be simple enough for anyone to do and I think I accomplished that.  If you really wanted to bump up this look - you could definitely add some lashes and totally add drama to the eyes.  The eye makeup could also be transformed into a very wearable daytime or night time look - just leave out the leopard spots and you are good to go.  

The tutorial on the look is posted below.  I sped it up for watching purposes - but you should get the general idea.  And, don't forget - the products I used are listed above.  For the brushes - I used my 22 piece brush set from Coastal Scents.

Hope you enjoy it :)
