Inspire

I have been absolutely obsessed with YouTube beauty vloggers lately. I cannot get enough. I get this little thrill from finding another vloggers that I trust and am inspired by. A few of my favorites are Mariah Leonard. Girl tells it like it is and is super goofy, in that I've never been made fun of in my life kind of way, which I love.
Another girl that I've totally been binge-watching is Eimear McElheron. She is this totally adorable Irish chick who does some incredible color mixes on the eyes that are like an explosion. She also has an amazing winged eyeliner tutorial that really breaks it down and makes sense. Plus I could listen to her talk all day. Her accent is amazing.
So tonight I wanted to watch something really out there and avant garde. I started with this Video
And I got a little makeup boner. The colors and the chaos of it all is so inspiring to me. I would absolutely love to try this kind of look.
Another video that drew my attention was this one by Linda Hallberg. She has the coolest tattoos. I especially love the circles on her finger. Anyways, I think this video really opened my eyes to expanding my thoughts on what makeup in this era is. It can be more than contouring and strobing and caterpillar eyebrows. Not that those things aren't great, but makeup is an expression of self and I have always broken the mold. I really want to get the basic technical skills down and then explore different mediums and create art.
