Marilyn Revamped


I was searching through photos of the iconic Marilyn Monroe and came across this amazing photo! I feel in love with the colors in this so I had to try and recreate it :) It's a really fun and super easy look to achieve. Here's to old Hollywood beauty!




What I used




Eyes:
*UDPP
*MAC Paint Pot in Painterly 
*MAC Brule (Brow Bone)
*MAC Coppering (Crease up to outer 1/3 of brow bone)
*Urban Decay Eldorado (Lid)
*Kat Von D eyeliner pen in Trooper
*Waterline- any white pencil
*Stila Major Major Lash mascara
*Ardell Demi lashes



Lips:
*MAC Brick lipliner
*MAC Viva Glam Cyndi
*MAC Standing Ovation lipglass 

P.S. Don't forget to draw on a beauty mark! :)




Xoxo,
Ashley

  7. Sorry this is gonna sound creepy, but I really like the shape and color of your teeth (total dental assistant thing to say)! People actually pay to get crowns done on their teeth to make them look like yours, haha.

  8. @ Kristennn~ Thank you!! It's not creepy to me at all, just a really nice compliment. I wish I were born with those teeth but I had braces for 2 years which fixed them right up! lol.
