Gilligan's Island: Ginger Inspired Makeup

As we continue down the rabbit hole of classic sitcoms, 

next up is Ginger, the 'Movie Star' on Gilligan's Island.

Made popular by actress Tina Louise.

Ginger looked pretty glamorous for being stuck on a secluded island for 3 seasons.

Neutral shadow, lashes, strong contour and peach lipstick were the main staples of Ginger's look.

The whole time I was doing this makeup I kept saying to myself

 "put the mole on right [meaning correct] side".

So I put it on the right (wrong) side instead of the left, haha.

In a lot of the episodes her bottom lash line was strong but did not connect to the upper

lash line at all. She may have been wearing false lower lashes as well.

Ulta: Complete Eye Palette in Indie

Crown Brush: Deluxe Infinity Shadow/Crease Duet C476

Real Techniques: Base Shadow Brush

MAC: 217 Blending Brush

Real Techniques: Accent Brush

I Dream of Jeannie Inspired Makeup

Continuing on the classic sitcom train of thought

I did an I dream of Jeannie inspired look, based on the character

made popular by Barbra Eden.

Remember? Major Nelson, Major Healey, Doctor Bellows, the blink, no?

Well then open a new tab, Google I Dream of Jeannie episodes, and watch now.

It's okay, I'll wait...

Done? Good!

Depending on the episode Jeannie either had bright blue eyeshadow or very 

sculpted, winged shadow.

I combined the two a bit.

I don't have Jeannie's bangs or talented hairstylist so the closest I could 

come to her hair without dropping a ton of money on a wig 

(or making a major commitment to bangs) 

is her high ponytail. 

Made a bit of a mess while recording.

Products were:

NYX: Avant Pop Art Throb Eye Palette

Tru Rituals Dual Ended Eyeshadow Brush

Urban Decay: AC/DC Eyeshadow

MAC: 217 Blending Brush

Maybelline: Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner in Blackest Black

Sheer Cover: Angled Eyeliner Brush

Crown Brush: Deluxe Infinity Shadow/Crease Duet C476

N.Y.C. Eyeliner in White

Urban Decay: Smog Eyeshadow

Tru Rituals Dual Ended Eyeshadow Brush

Kiss: i-Envy Paparazzi 01 Lashes

Benefit:  They’re Real Mascara

NYX: Wonder Stick in Light

Real Techniques: Sculpting Brush

L’Oreal: True Match Super Blendable Blush in Baby Blossom

Sonia Kashuk: Synthetic Domed Multipurpose Brush - No 16

Starlooks:  Lip Gloss in Guilty Pleasure

I Love Lucy Inspired Makeup Tutorial

It goes without saying I love 'I Love Lucy'.

So, in honor of the iconic show and its star I put together this look.

With quite possibly the worst wig (hey, it was cheap) 

I tried to recreate Lucy's look.

Which is harder than it sounds because the majority of pictures

from the show are in black and white.

For the eyeshadow I wasn't too concerned about color, 

because she usually wore more neutral shades.

It was more about sculpting the shape and 

making my eyes look bigger like Lucy's.

To make my eyes appear wider I used a white eyeliner on the lower waterline

and false lashes from e.l.f.

(This dress could belong to Minnie Mouse, just saying.)

Lucy's cheeks were more rounded than mine so

I used NYX Highlight & Contour Pro Palette to give a more rounded look.

Not my best look.

And the wig looks like it was from the musical Annie.

Guess I've got some "splaining to do" (haha).

But no one can compare to the lovely and talented Lucille Ball.

It was enjoyable trying to recreate some of her most iconic looks.

And who could forget her famous "Vitameatavegamin" skit?

Here is the video tutorial:

Carolina Panthers Makeup

This should've been posted Friday, but my video editor decided to malfunction 

several times and delay the entire process.

Any suggestions on a better video editors?

Anyway, my Panthers look is complete!

Teal blue, silver and black, I had quite a bit of fun with their colors.

Only major issue was lack of teal lipstick

But have no fear (I'm sure you were worried :), I was able to create my own.

A little Vaseline and some bits of powder eyeshadow,

mix them together and, voila! Teal lipstick.

And of course Panthers need whiskers so more eyeliner was needed.

Here is my video that narrowly made it through editing:

And in case you missed the Broncos one:

I hope you enjoy the makeup looks and enjoy the game Sunday.
