Well... I tried. I'm no Taylor Swift, that's for sure!

Haha I know it sounds like you're going to see me singing or something but don't be afraid, there's no singing here!  I attempted to do a red lip look like she does because my friend from MUG, Jess (Weighing Down on Beauty) said she'd like to see me try a Taylor Swift inspired look.  Well Jess, I'm sorry to let you down.  Actually, I did try so I guess I didn't totally fail.  I just do not like this on me at all!
So here was my inspiration:
And here's what I did (feel free to not look haha), it's kind of a mixture of all 3 (but mainly the last one)
hey look, I used some false lashes
My crazy kiddo and I colored eggs for Easter
I'm not diggin it, sorry Jess!  I want to like it, I really do but I just don't.  Red lips on me just don't go.  I will wear bright pink like nobody's business but red.... ummmm... no.  I feel like you need to be more naturally beautiful to pull this look off, I'm not trying to be mean to myself but I don't think I'm pretty enough to pull it off haha I feel like I need more!   More eyebrow color, more contouring, more bronzer, more eye shadow!!!  More more more!  Haha... I think I may have a problem.

I used Revlon Colorstay lipliner in Red and NYX lipstick in Electra for my lips.  And then I used Inglot matte shadows in 351, 352, and 363.  The liner is the usual Bobbi Brown gel liner in "Black Ink".  The lashes are Ardell natural lashes "Sweeties".  Oh!  I almost forgot!  I also used a MAC eyeshadow (Filament) that I bought when I was like 16.  I look at the color now and wonder why I bought it, it's kind of a light taupe color with major glitter in it that gets all over the place.  I thought it was actually something Taylor Swift would wear though so I put some of that on my lid. 

I don't like this but it made me feel a lot better about it when my daughter told me that I look beautiful and when she saw the picture of Taylor Swift (and I didn't ask) she told me that my makeup looks like hers.  So I hope you all have a great Easter weekend!  And congratulations if you've made it through this haha!
