Music Video Inspired Tutorial: Britney Spears' "I'm a Slave 4 U"

I've made peace with the fact that I don't look like Britney Spears..

So she's had her down times; went commando, became bald, lost custody of her children... Now that all of those shenanigans are behind her, it's time to celebrate her revival with a little blast from the past. Britney always -- and I mean always -- has fantastic makeup in her videos. Despite being spoiled for choice, I decided to do "I'm a Slave 4 U". Who knew being hot and sweaty could look so sexy?



Hope you'll like this one! Read on for full description of items used...

Where's the deep black cut-crease? Yeah, I didn't do that because my eyes are simply not designed to look good with a sharp cut-crease. I tried it and had to redo. That's why it's called "inspired"... I give that excuse a lot, don't I? Sorry :(

Not a fan of this song, but it looks pretty similar to her "Stronger" vid which I like actually :D The teal looks so AWESOME, girl!

How's the L'oreal DeCrease? I have yet to find a HG eye primer...

Haven't really played much with my OCCs yet-plagued with an ulcer on my lip...Must be the vile herbal concoction MomInLaw forced down my throat...

Oh, are those your bare lips prior to the Guerlain n Rimmel? My lips look like too - AFTER nude lippies LMAO
