MUL: "Beauty Marked" (Beyonce Inspired)

Happy Friday!!!
This look was inspired by the ever so beautiful Beyonce! I first saw this look featured in a Life&Style Weekly magazine. In the magazine, Beyonce was sporting a gold-ish and purple-ish/burgundy eye with bronze-y, luminous skin and a light pink lip. I absolutely loved it. I've seen a similar look featured on Keri Hilson. So this is a look I've wanted to do for quite sometime. Of course, when I tried to find the up close version on Google, I wasn't so successful. (Of course! why would anything work in my favor? Lol.) Any who, this is my take of her look that was featured in the magazine.

Disclaimer: I am not in anyway, shape or form claiming to look like Beyonce. She is only being utilized as an inspirational guide from which this look was created.

Y'all peep me workin' my lil' twist-out? Hahaha!

This look was alot of fun to create! I worked really hard to get just the right hue of rose-gold, but it's just my luck my camera fails to pick up the color payoff. Of course!!!? Why would it?  Lol! Still love it, though!
