Phoenix Inspired Look! (Phoenix Series Pt. 2)
Today I bring you part 2 of the 3 part Phoenix series! So this one I pulled in a bit and didn’t flare it out past the edge of the eye or above the eyebrow because I wanted to show the restraint Phoenix had before she went Dark Phoenix and lost control. So it’s a bit more streamlined than the previous that flared out. I also lightened the green of the iris (AKA the eye color is photoshopped! My true eye color is hazel!) to reflect Phoenix’s temperament before she went Dark Phoenix as well as using a lighter red wig (I love my wigs!). (I realize I’m working a bit backwards doing Phoenix after Dark Phoenix, but I just decided to make this a series on the spur of the moment
).
Enjoy!

I loves you!
I just saw this on MakeupBee. I can’t believe how awesome your skills are! This look is incredible. I love how you look with green eyes. have you thought about coloured contacts? You’re making me want to give them a go.
Thank you so much! I have dabbled with colored contacts in the past (green ones are my favorite) but because of my astigmatism I would have to get them ordered and I don’t have the funds right now.
I love this! you captured Phoenix very well. really like the look of the gradient and gold liner
First of all, it isn’t fair how unbelievable gorgeous you are. Share the wealth, woman!! Second of all, this look is out of this world. Stellar. Stupendous. STUNNING!!
Thanks Ronnie! LOL You are freaking gorgeous too so I have NO idea what you’re talking about!
!!!!
My makeup skills pale in comparison to yours. Why are you not a makeup artist?!?! Seriously! You have SO MUCH talent!!!
Thanks Mandy <3 lol.
Well, I don't have the $ right now to start my makeup kit (I don't want to use my personal stuff as 90% of it is limited edition). As soon as I get the kit together, I WILL be a working make up artist. Literally, that is the only thing stopping me. $$.
So beautiful, I love how all the colours transition so nicely into one another.
I love this look & was inspired by it, however it turned out more of a replica, if you could check it out it would be awesome! New follower here thanks to Meredith
I love all of your looks!

I like how you toned it down a bit so it’s more wearable.
I’m flattered that you found mine inspirational
Thanks for sharing!
