The photo to the left is of Taylor Swift at this year's CMT Music Awards. For the Youtube video tutorial, I tried to duplicate her make-up using similar products and colours. However, I chose not to use the GIANT false lashes she has, simpl
y because I feel that they tend to look very false and "over the top". On Taylor Swift they look beautiful, but she is also being filmed from a greater distance...and she is also a celebrity. haha
If you do decide you want to apply falsies, I'd suggest finding ones (Makeupforever - MUFE has some great ones) that are VERY VOLUMINOUS on the outer corner, but have very few lashes as you move toward the inner corner of your eye. This will keep the contrast between the highlight on the inner corner of your eye, and the intense black of the outer corner.
Keep in mind, however, that MUFE lashes are pretty expensive if you
plan on only wearing them for one night. A more economical choice is to purchase 'regular' lashes from a drugstore, and cut one of them in half. Then just apply them on the outer corner of your eye.

omg, you look amazing! & I like Taylor with her straight hair, gives her more of an edgy and fierce appearance.
