PrimpPowderPout's subject in this tutorial is Miss Lena Mae, burlesque performer extraordinaire!
We girls certainly like our neutrals. They never fail us, right? We can swipe on some brown and nude eyeshadow for the office and then wear the same look out at night for hitting up the newest lounge on Melrose, albiet with an extra swipe of red lipstick to up the glamour factor.
This wreath's got its eye on you...literally. Freak out trick-or-treaters and perplex adults with this kooky and spooky monster eyeball Halloween wreath. Skeletons and spiders?

In this tutorial, we learn how to make a hedgehog plushy. First, choose a fabric to use, then cut out the shape of it. Once you have done this, cut it out again and pin the two pieces of fabric together. After this, use a sewing machine to sew all of the sides together, leaving a hole in the bottom. Now, turn the hedgehog inside out and then iron him flat. Place some stuffy cotton into the plushy until it is as full as you would like it. Then, sew the hole together so none of the stuffing can...
When drawing any sort of art, conveying emotion is key to creating a great and significant scene. The twist of an eyebrow, the way the eyes stare at you, it all conveys a different emotion, and with a very small change to one of many different features of the face, you can completely change the idea and emotion conveyed by the picture. In this amazing video series, you will learn all the various positions and looks of the face that'll convey all the emotions that you want to bring out in your...
We Wonder How To worker bees are a little on the older side, but we remember (with a sharp pang of awkwardness) just how hard it was to approach that guy or girl at lunch break during school and ask him/her out. Butterflies in the stomach, queasiness, and hyperventilating were not our friends when we wanted to look cool and suave to impress the one we had our eyes on.
Bunnies are the last things you'd expect to eat your face off, but behind those cute, beady eyes and fuzzy fur lies a ferocious monster just waiting to get out. Or at least that's the case with this fiendish rabbit monster.

Taylor Swift looks an awful lot like the princesses she sings about in her rhapsodies about teen angst and finding your white knight. Which means, of course, that she's a makeup artist's dream.
We don't remember much about the 1984 movie "Gremlins," but we do remember the adorable protagonist/lead Gremlin Gizmo! Who can forget his big, pleading eyes, doll-like stature and chubby tummy? Our four-year-old selves swooned over the fantasy that we could own our very own Gizmo as a pet. Unfortunately for us, our pipe dreams went bust when we discovered that Gizmo shockingly wasn't real, but at least we can still recall the tender days of yore by drawing this Gizmo character.
Tom Pecheaux, Estee Lauder's new creative director, came to the company with a vision in mind: Bold, more unexpected drops of color for their eyeshadow palettes, lipsticks, and glosses.

If everyone in the world properly secured their email account there would be no spam. But yeah… never going to happen. That's more of a reason to encrypt and digitally sign our emails, but isn't using p2p security really expensive and really hard? Nope. It's actually free and easy with GnuPG. It's demonstrated on Mac OS X, but it's just as easy with Windows.
We all love our go-to neutral makeup colors: they're the basis of our makeup collection and, like an LBD, look good no matter how bloated we feel - and look - and no matter what the occasion. But as Cyndi Lauper famously said in her song, sometimes "girls just wanna have fun."
You should try on this makeup look because we simply can't think of any reason why you WOULDN'T want to look like Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love, beauty, and sex. And seeing as how she rules supreme over these three categories, she is usually portrayed as being very beautiful and attractive. In other words, her milkshake would beyond the shadow of a doubt bring all the boys to the yard.
There's no better time to have your cake and to eat it too than your birthday. However crazy your tastes, the day of your arrival onto this earth entitles you to treats of all magnitudes.

Fanning things out always seems to add a flirty, attractive effect: fanned out, lush eyelashes make cartoon cayotes' hearts leap out of their chests and their eyes get as big as saucers, while fanned out, cut pieces of paper make pretty snowflakes.

Dolling yourself up for a night out on the town clubbing is probably also half the fun of the whole clubbing experience: doing the big hair to make us look like goddesses, donning the impossibly long false eyelashes, slipping on that sexy dress from Bebe, and sticking our tooties into leg lengthening pumps is just as much of a delight as dancing the night away.
There's no better time of year than Halloween to indulge in the macabre and spook your friends and family. Get creative with your spooking this year by making your baked goods scare, as well.

In this video, we learn how to film skateboarding. First, get a camera that fits your price range and you will be ready to start filming. Next, use a long lens so you capture the best shots of people on their boards and in motion. Next, make sure you capture the lines that the skateboarder is skating on. Use different angles to get the best shot possible. You want to get close to the action, so you will need a fish eye lens. Use your skateboard to follow the skater around. Using these simple ...
Emma Watson, who plays Hermione Granger in the "Harry Potter" series, is actually a lot like the character she embodies. Both are quite intelligent (Watson just finished her freshman year at Brown), strong, and independent, and both rely on minimal makeup to enhance their features.
Due to the dour economy, sometimes it's best to conserve one's resources for more vital expenditures like, oh, we don't know, food, rather than blow it on new shirts from Urban Outfitters and that pair of boot cut J Brand jeans you've been eyeing.
Let's face it: Without armor, we'd all be very squishy. While armor isn't necessary on the every day when we're going to school or hitting up the post office (at least we HOPE armor isn't necessary where you live), it certainly is and has been in battle.
Lady Gaga is the queen of shock, and what better way to jolt the public than with a literal lightning bolt? Lady Gaga seldom repeats a look, but she's stood by her favorites, including a Minnie Mouse inspired hair bow and the black and pink lightning bolt look presented in this video.
Natural beauty Dianna Agron, who plays evil cheerleader Quinn Fabray on the hit show "Glee," doesn't need a stitch of makeup to look fabulous. Which is why her character on the show only wears the basics: a little bit of mascara, pale pink lipgloss, and peachy pink blush.
