- Well, I do declare!
Hey, guys, it's me Blair
St. Clair from season 10
of RuPaul's Drag Race.
If you've ever wanted to
see me with the official
Blair look, well, check
this out and watch me go
from this to this.
What I think is really,
really important starting out
with your makeup is having
really well moisturized skin,
because wearing makeup for
so long periods of time,
your makeup can get
really cracky and crunchy,
and what you want is a really,
really nice solid base.
So I've already started
with moisturizing my face
with a really thin layer
of moisturizer and primer
all over, after I've
shaved of course.
You know you can't
have that stubble,
that crusty crust that you
get growin' right under here.
And my first step that I'm gonna
go in with is
covering my eyebrows.
I like to cheat
with my eyebrows,
because I basically have
a pretty feminine shape
of where I start my
eyebrow, because I want my
eyebrow drawn on to start where
my real eyebrow actually grows.
So, basically, I want that
line to kind of be taken
this direction upward.
So that means that I don't
really need this little piece
of my eyebrow that I
have here that I grow.
I'm gonna start with
my trusty glue stick
and I'm gonna go in
into my eyebrow hairs
and really make sure that
I kind of dab this part
of my eyebrow down with
the glue, working forward
and backward with the
hairs, really on the corner
of my eyebrow that
I want covered.
As you can see, I'm only
really kind of covering
that outer edge right there.
Take a spoolie or
mascara wand and brush
those hairs right down.
I'm also gonna take my finger
next to smooth is all out
to make sure I have a
really smooth surface
for what I want to cover.
And then after I've
smoothed that, I'm gonna add
a little more glue, just
to smooth everything out
and make it very seamless.
Okay, so once I finish
applying the glue to this area
of my eyebrow, I'm going to
wipe away the excess glue
that's actually not touching
or sitting on my eyebrow.
I'm going to now set the
glue where before it's
completely dried, it's
still kind of slightly tacky
on my eyebrow, with powder.
I'm using a really super
white powder, so when
I put that color down
on top of my eyebrow,
it's really, really, gonna
help cover all the colors
and then I'm just repeat
on the opposite side.
I'm gonna take a brush,
and just kind of dust away
some of that extra loose
powder that's already
on my face, and then I'm
going to repeat that same
process one to two more
times, until I get a
really, really smooth
surface area right here
where the eyebrow is.
I like starting with my
eyebrows next and then
cleaning up with my
foundation second,
so that way I can get the
most perfect, snatched
defined brow, and I can
go in with my foundation
afterward to really clean
up that eyebrow area.
So I'm gonna take an angled
brush and have a brown cream
and I'm going to start drawing
my eyebrow shape in this area.
The way I like to
draw my eyebrows
is if I put my head downward,
I want it to look
like I have my eyebrow
coming up like this and
pointed straight down,
so you can see I'm
creating that line here,
this line here, and then
I'm going to replicate
the same thing on
the other side.
I'm next gonna draw in the
top line of the eyebrow
and connect it to the arch
and really kind of shade
that area in that I've drawn on.
Eyebrows are my
least favorite part
because I feel like
I have to get them
completely symmetrical,
even though they're
never symmetrical.
I stress out the most over that,
so I like to get it done first.
Get it out of the way.
Before I do that and
outline my eyebrows,
I am going to fill in
this little area here
that has nothing.
This is just my eyebrow
that's in the area.
I'm going to take
an eye shadow brush
and really kind of feather
that into my real eyebrow.
I wanna create the
nice hombre effect
of my natural eyebrow
with no makeup on it,
into this fake ending of the
eyebrow that I've created.
I'm next going to trace
around the eyebrow
with my foundations.
Taking a cream white foundation,
and I'm gonna work right
underneath the eyebrow,
and it's really cleaning up
and straightening up that line.
I'm just gonna outline
that eyebrow on top,
truly making a nice clean line.
Snatched eyebrow, huh, we
like her, we're into her,
we love her.
I'm actually just
gonna set this white
underneath my eye, with
a very super white,
highly pigmented
pressed eye shadow.
I'm just doing this,
before I add in
my other foundation colors.
So now it's time to go
in with my foundations.
So, I'm gonna start with
taking my normal cream
foundation stick.
As you can see I already
started to really
go around and define my
eyebrow with this same
cream foundation, so I'm
gonna kind of continue
onto my forehead area,
slather her on a little bit,
and onto my face.
As you can see, I
cover quite a bit
of the surface area of my
face, but I didn't cover
the entire thing in a lot
of just really thick makeup.
This is a really thin
layer over the majority
of my face, so where I need
the most makeup on my face.
Take that sponge and dab and
sponge it all around my face.
Slap, slap, slap, beep,
beep, beep, beep, beep.
Pow, pow, pow, pow, pow,
pow, pow, pow, pow, pow,
p p p pow pow pow pow pow,
that's what I think every time.
I'm gonna take the same
cream white I use underneath
my eyebrow, and I'm
gonna use my finger,
and plop that on my cheekbones.
I'm also gonna put
that on my upper lip,
right in my cupid's bow
area, on the top of my chin,
my cute little dinky chin.
If I'm looking down, I
want it on the center of my
forehead right here
because this is highlighted
most front part of my forehead.
And then on my nose.
So my nose I only do, I
don't go all the way up
to the bridge of my nose, I
start about 3/4 of the way up
and I work it to
the tip of my nose,
itty bitty tip right there.
So, I'm wanting these
areas to stand out most
and be the most
prominent on my face,
that's why I'm
lightening this area
with a lighter foundation.
I'm gonna use this to blend
out any of those lighter areas.
I'm also gonna
work that lightness
and I'm gonna work
that highlight
a little onto the edge
of my nose right here.
Whoo, this cheekbone,
she's poppin' out!
I'm going to set my face now
with a translucent powder
all over my face.
This is really gonna
lock in and set in
everything I've already
done with my makeup.
So once I've started
applying that translucent
powder all over my face,
I'm gonna take another
brush and really dust
away any extra powder
that's just sitting
there that I don't need.
After I have built on my
foundation and my highlights
and I've set them,
I want to build
on my contour on my face.
So I like to take
my contour brush,
and my bronzing powder,
and really dab it
in the areas that I
want to hide in my face.
So I want my cheekbones to pop,
adding this darkness
and this depth
underneath the cheekbones.
I'm just kind of
applying it at first
because I want to go back
in and really smooth out,
and really blend
out those areas,
really, really, really up
here around my forehead.
So I'm gonna bring my contour
up here and round it off
in a C formation.
As you can see, there's
quite a bit of contour
just stacked on my face.
I'm going to take a
really large brush,
to kind of blend all that away.
All the lines out and
really to make it soft.
I don't really need to
add any extra shadowing
around my jawline.
I actually don't contour
underneath my jaw at all.
But I am going to contour nose.
And, I'm going to start
near the tip of my nose
and kind of work my way up
into blending out the sides
of contour on my nose.
After I finish the base of
my highlights and contours,
I'm going to go in with my eyes.
Today I'm going to
do more of a simple,
natural, nude look, kind of
a nude allusion if you will,
for my eye shadow.
I like to start with
drawing the crease of my eye
with an eyeliner pencil.
One of my big beauty secrets
is starting with the crease
of my eye and mapping that
out, with a eyeliner pencil.
I like to think of it
as my eyes are downward,
and they're glaring
and beading this way,
everything should be focused
here, it should blend outward.
So, when I lift my eye, I'll
have a highlight of space here.
I'm just gonna draw the shape,
I want my crease to be today.
Awesome, perfect, lovely.
Next, I'm going to go in with
the next part of my crease
and that's really, really
defining that inner edge
and that line, that really
breaks from my eye socket
to the crease.
Now you can really start to
see where that dark crease
comes in, right where it
cuts off of my eyelid,
it has that depth right here.
I wanna cut away any extra
color that might be on my lid,
and I'm going to use a
liquid lipstick on my lid
in a nude shade.
I'm gonna go back with the
white cream that I placed
under my eyebrow bone
and on my cheekbones.
This just allows my eyes to
look a little bit more open,
a little bit more doll like.
Now I have really little
eyes, s I don't want my eyes
to look way too dark, so
I'm just adding a little bit
of black on the outer corner
of my and into my lid area.
Now that that the top
part of my eye is finished
I'm gonna add a little
bit of few details
on the bottom part of my eye.
I'm just gonna take my
white eyeliner pencil,
and line my water line.
A very light beige color
right underneath that white
to define it, and then
just a little bit of black
connecting on the outer
half of my eyeball.
So that your eyes look
open and doll like and
glorified, I'm gonna add
just a little bit of a black
eyeliner on the
top to top it off.
After applying your
eyeliner perfectly,
which it never really
is, I'm going to use
massive coats of mascara
all over my natural lashes.
The next thing I like to
do, is warm up my face
with a little bit of blush,
especially on my cheeks.
Of course one of my
next favorite parts
of all my makeup is shimmer.
What drag queen doesn't love
glitter, doesn't love shimmer?
I love shimmer!
I'm applying the highlight
all over the places
that I highlighted
with the cream.
She's a woman!
She is a woman, whoo, whoo!
Into that fantasy!
Next are my lips.
I don't really overdraw
my lips too much
mainly because that's
why I went to the doctor
and I got bigger lips.
So after I've lined my
lips, I'm going to go in
with my nude lipstick
as well and fill in
all the cracks.
We're gonna glass her
up, make her shiny,
make her glisten.
I'm feelin' it today.
Right before I do my
lashes, one of my last
favorite little
new tricks of mine,
is defining my cupid's
bow with a little bit
of a white liquid eyeliner.
And, all I have left is lashes.
I snip off the very
beginning and very end
of my eyelash, so my eyelash
is really concentrated
on the middle part of my eye.
My favorite eyelash
glue is the brush on
kind of eyelash glue
because it usually dries
much quicker too.
Oh, she's a woman,
post pubescent woman.
So now that I've
finished with my makeup,
I'm going to slip into
my signature look,
just for you guys.
So now that I've add
my hair, my wardrobe,
my jewelry, my nails, this
is the final glow up look.
