Adam Lambert Makeup Transformation









A speedy documentary of my work on my friend Anthony! I am building my makeup portfolio and thought he would be the perfect model for an Adam Lambert inspired look!

Moisturizer, skin primer, and eye primer were applied prior to filming. I did not use foundation on him because I felt his skin only required light coverage. I slipped and used my fingers for a few seconds in the video, but corrected myself (even though he and I are close friends, you are not supposed to use your fingers on a client's face).

Thank you to Anthony for being my brilliant model, my pal Chrissie for being my camera-woman, and my hunny Brendan for my camera!! And a special thank you to Lenore for being a Mr. Potato on the couch! haha love you guys :)

xoxo
Lisa!
