Imitation is the Best Form of Flattery

This is a contest entry for Jaimie's "I'm Gaga for Gaga" contest. I did this look a few days ago when I first saw the contest (& I wasn't even a member yet)! I was going to re-do the look, but I just realized that the deadline is tomorrow & since I'm supposed to be doing some readings & working on an essay *sigh*, I'm just going to submit the look that I had done. So glad I took LOTS of pictures when I did this last time! You'll see what I mean by lots very shortly :) I had a lot of fun doing this look & as I went on, I kept making a few changes to add in a little bit of Saimese flavour ;) Enough talking, here are the pics...

Inspiration Pic

Step 1: Pink & black smokey eye + black lightning bolt + neutral lip
Step 2: Added a green line under both eyes
Step 3: Outlined the bolt with the green to add some extra oomph!

SAIM.ESE IN THE ROOM, SO STARSTRUCK
CHERRY CHERRY CHERRY CHERRY, BOOM BOOM


& here's the final look with some glitter eyeliner!!
