Once Upon a Time Mini Series!

 I love when beauty gurus do mini makeup series based off of books or movies! So I decided to start my own mini series inspired by one of my favorite television shows: Once Upon a Time. For this series I’ll be posting makeup looks based off of each lead female role in the show. I hope you all enjoy! 

For my first makeup look, I’ll be doing makeup inspired by Regina or the Evil Queen. Most of Regina’s makeup looks are very mature and classy, so I wanted to do a makeup look off of when she’s shown as the Evil Queen. 

First off you’ll need a good eye primer, for this I used Urban Decay Primer Potion.

Time for your eye shadows!

You want a very light, slightly shimmery white/skin tone color for all over your lid. You can also blend this shadow up to your brow-bone, this will allow any other eye shadows you apply to blend easily. For this I used In The Buff from Too Faced: Naked Eye collection. 

Before you move onto the next eye shadow you want to take a piece of tape (make sure to stick it onto your hand a few times first, that way it’s not too sticky and doesn’t drag on your skin) and place it right underneath your lower lashes, and have it up at an angle to help create a cat-eye angle.

After that you want to take a small, flat/short shading brush and pick up Stiletto from that same Too Faced palette. Carefully outline a cut crease, just right above your natural eye crease. Follow the natural contours of your eye, take your time with this. After that you want to gently blend out the black, having the tape there will help give you a nice sharp line. Make sure when you’re blending, to only blend upwards, not downwards towards your lid. 

Next you want to run a small amount of Stiletto along your lower lashes and connect that to the upper winged eye shadow. 

To finish off the eyes you want to thinly line your top lashes with eyeliner. For this I used Revlon ColorStay: Liquid Eye Pen. 

Time for mascara! I used my L’Oreal Voluminous Million Lashes mascara in: Black/Brown.

To finish off the look you need a bold lip! Often times on the show I see that Regina’s either wearing a dark berry lip, or a red. So I went with a berry lip. 

For this I used my Urban Decay Ultra Saturated Lip Color in: Theodora. I darkened it a little bit using a tiny bit of Urban Decay Revolution Lipstick in: Anarchy. 

And now your Regina/Evil Queen look is complete!

I hope you all enjoyed! And keep a look out for my next Once Upon A Time makeup inspired look!
