Ancient Egyptian Art Inspired Tutorial


Recently I was playing around with my makeup and tried the color combination of torques blue and gold shimmer on my eyes and it reminded me of the death mask of King Tutankhamen.  I decided to make a look inspired by Ancient Egyptian art. I incorporated some aspect from the bust of Nefertiti like the berry colored lips and awesome sun kissed cheekbones. Of course I couldn’t forget the famous lined eyes but with a twist.

This look could be worn for a night out or if your daring like me as a day look. I would also be great for Halloween if you’re going as Cleopatra.
