Yummy411: The Art of Drag Makeup

Hey all!


Part of my makeup obsession stems from the intrigue of the transformation properties of a great makeup job. One of the wearable forms is drag makeup. I am in awe of guys that go from Bob to Brenda. How can makeup make a man such as RuPaul look like a better woman than me! Even though I'm not interested in wearing my makeup as heavy or exaggerated, there is quite a lot to take from these artists: contouring tips, eye shadow placement, blending and more! Perfecting the art of transformation is one heck of a talent! Take a look at some videos that I've gathered in one place for your viewing pleasure!

Now stay tuned over at Slvrlips Beauty and Music Haven for more insightful articles on all of the mystery behind drag makeup!

Drag makeup is something that can truly be considered art! Wearable art that I don't think I'll ever be able to pull off. I'll stay an admirer from afar.

@ beautyful habit: thank you so much hon!

@ nilla cookie: yes it is definitely an art form. me on the other hand, i'd like to take from them but tone it down to be wearable in real life, not on the stage lol!
