Life in plastic, is it actually fantastic? Apparently, a makeup artist on Instagram thinks it is! She's created the most glossy and 'plastic doll-like' makeup look.
Life in plastic, is it actually fantastic? Apparently, a makeup artist on Instagram thinks it is! She’s created the most glossy and ‘plastic doll-like’ makeup look.
Meet Ida Ekman: A Finnish makeup artist and beauty influencer that is taking the Instagram world by storm, with her mad makeup skills! And the best part is, her products are extremely inexpensive, (and doesn’t actually require you to slather your face with vaseline to pull it off)!
Ida created her glossy look with the convenience of drugstore products, such as $7 NYX white liquid-liner and $11 Suva Beauty Space Panda.
Both of the products aided in giving the overall look, that glossy and highlighted effect!
At first glance, it looks like she’s used a bucket of vaseline… But what she really did was use her highlighting tools to create an optical illusion of a glossy-shine appearance with creatively placed white lines and smears. The liquid-liner was used to highlight around the eyes and lips, while the Space Panda was used to highlight around the forehead and cheeks; That is what you call the power of makeup and an incredible job tricking the eye (literally).
Seriously, once I learned more about the products she used, I was thinking: “Oh, so she didn’t cover herself in some kind of oil or face mask…She’s brilliant!”
But I guess other people are trying out Ida’s techniques and achieving the same results.
This girl, who is a model and a makeup artist, has also shared her glossy look, on Instagram.
She even used the same NYX liquid liner, that Ida used!
But not only does Ida pull off the glossy look, extremely well, she also has other incredible makeup designs.
Inspired by plants…
Dandelion eyes?
And a woodland fairy inspired look!
If one thing is for sure, it’s that this woman is a true talent. I would love for her to make YouTube tutorials for all of us to watch and attempt to try out.
I mean, Halloween will soon be around the corner…
