Dear Reader:
If you have clicked on this blog post looking for a cheery makeup tutorial, I'm sorry to inform you that you have picked the wrong blog altogether. I am bound to record these tragic makeup looks, but you are free to close this tab and find something lighter to read.
(Paraphrasing Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events Book the Second: The Reptile Room)
You guessed it, another unfortunate look!
This one is of Jacquelyn Scieszka from the Netflix adaption of Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events book series.
The interesting thing about Jacquelyn is that she is NOT in the books (unless I totally missed her, feel free to comment her book appearance below if I have).
However, she is a fantastic edition to the cast of Volunteers and noble adults that are few and between in the Baudelaire orphans' lives.

Jacquelyn (portrayed by Sara Canning) is Mr. Poe's administrative assistant and is a part of the secret organization that holds the answers to the questions surrounding the tragic loss of the Baudelaire parents. Despite Jacquelyn's incompetent boss, she manages to assist the Baudelaire orphans and help them escape Count Olaf's clutches on many occasions.
How can we create a Jacquelyn inspired look? Keep Reading.
What you will need:
1. Neutral Matte Eyeshadows: A pink taupe, a cool taupe, a rich brown, and a light beige will give a natural contour to the eye.
2. Gel Eyeliner: You could use a liquid if you like, but I like the precision of gel when I'm trying to get close to the lash line and make it look more natural.
3. Nude or Skin Tone Eyeliner Pencil: A liner in a similar color to your skin tone will make your eyes look bigger and more "doe-like" when used on the lower waterline.
4. Black Mascara: For Jacquelyn we want lashes with length and definition without looking like we are wearing false lashes.
5. A Contour, Highlight and Blush: A soft brown contour, an off white highlighter, and nude pink blush will help sculpt the face without looking over done.
6. Red Liquid Lipstick: I like liquid because it gives me the ease of "drawing" the color on my lips to get the shape I want.
Jacquelyn's makeup is very subtle and the goal is to keep it as natural as possible.
The most distinct part of Jacquelyn's makeup is her bright red lipstick.
