Hi sisters! James Charles here and welcome back to my YouTube channel. Happy new year everybody, I am
So glad that  2017 is over, thank god, it was a roller coaster of a year with a lot of highs and lows
If you'd like to check out my year in review video that I put up last week, I am so proud of it, make sure
to click right up here but I am
so excited to move on to bigger and better things this 2018!
Although nothing really happens when it becomes a new year, it is a major opportunity for everybody to kind of start fresh and just stay
motivated and inspired and, of course, we see everybody posting their new year's
resolutions and goals across all social media and one thing we see all the time is "new year new me". For today's video we're going
to be doing exactly that becoming a new me...
When it comes to your favorite internet personalities there's usually a really really big fandom behind that one person which we like to call
stans and stans like to do edits we get all sorts of amazing fan our drawings paintings makeup
recreations and one type of at a weekend all the time is punk edits I've seen a lot of people on youtube but
recreate their punk edits in real life by like dying their hair
getting fake piercings and of course press on like water tattoos but for today's video
My job is obviously a makeup artist so i'm gonna be recreating my punk edits with makeup
One feature i see all the time in punk edits is the cat scratch eyebrow
I've worked way too hard on these have tweeze them
To death, to get the perfect shape so i'm definitely not
Shaving to scratches in my eyebrows today so i'm gonna start off with my elmer's
washable glue stick and glue down just the second half of my brow
you guys
See me do this a million times now in different drive video so if you really want to know how to glue down your eyebrows
Definitely check one of those videos i'll link them somewhere up here on the screen so you can get a more in-depth tutorial
once that brow is all glued down and dried i'm just gonna take a powder puff, and some translucent powder and
Pack it there to really lock those hairs in place
so we can cover over them i'm gonna use my kryolan tv paint stick in the shade NB
To cover over those hairs, oh my?
that was a good brow cover
wow and then just applying a really light layer of the too faced born this way foundation
all over the rest of my face not really for like a glam look just for like kind of more even a skin tone all
Throughout when it comes to the neck i am actually gonna grab a lot more foundation than the face and
really make sure to blend that in and pack it kind of all over
Because we're gonna be putting a lot of
Tattoos here and this we do really want a full covered even skin tone so we have a good base for all the drawings
I'm gonna go ahead and do the rest my base off camera today just
To save some time
like i said we are not going full glam just adding a little bit of dimension back to my face just make everything kind of
More even at it ready for a tattoo
for my eyebrows today we're gonna start off by filling in the base in Mica  brow gel from benefit in number four
So how basically my brow shape all sketched out and like i said i was gonna make them really really close to my normal brows
i just didn't want
To obviously shave a scratch in them so i'm gonna take my shape tape concealer on just the back of my hand and a tiny
liner brush and i'm gonna sketch out my cat scratch
This is definitely like an interesting look not really sure how i feel about it so far wow grayson dolan is shaking
So one thing i see all the time in punk edits and like face tattoos is a lot of people get tears
Right here and i think that means the amount of people that you've killed i mean for me personally i don't know about any of
You guys but killing people is exactly on my 2018 agenda so instead of putting a tear right here i'm gonna put the adidas logo
please sponsor me
This is already turning out to be so much harder than i expected oh my god
okay, so another trend i see all the time in face tattoos is a big word and cursive right above this eyebrow obviously reading from
left
To right so this might be like mirrored on the camera?
You're just had to trust me here i don't really know how this is gonna work or turn out
We're just going with the flow but
since this is like right near my brain i'm gonna put the word sisters because you guys are always on my mind
That was so cheesy
oh it is gonna be backwards
You're kidding i can always flip the footage i don't know why i saw myself up to do this
So obviously this side of my face is a little bit intense right now we definitely to balance it out on this side
So it sounds even using my kat von d tattoo liner
i figured i would add some stars to the decided honor of kat von d but using a nyx liquid liner i
know that milk makeup that i makes a like star eyeliner stamp that i can just be putting
right all over my face right now but of course i do not have that or do i
nope i don't one person that was iconic for their face tattoos is lil peep rest in peace he's gone away too soon
Not only was he an amazing musician but he was also an openly
Lgbtq, person in the rock community which was so amazing so in honor of, him i'm gonna. Recreate some of
his face tattoos he had a horseshoe right in between his eyebrows for a good luck and since this new year is starting and we
Had quite a rough last one we're gonna need it
He also had a broken heart tattoo right here on his cheek and i'm gonna recreate that today because
Lord knows I've had my heart broken by a far too many straight boys
and a lot of punk edits people usually edit their ears to be pierced or like a gauge in their ear with a really really
Big earring obviously my ears are not even pierced i'm gonna draw one one 
 using some more eyeliner oh
I feel like at this point my face is pretty much on and honestly i'm not even gonna lie i
kind of like how this looks i really thought i was gonna be so spooked by myself but i really
Don't even mind this like a punk sister James and version anyway i'm gonna move on to my neck?
One tattoo that i see all the time on bail people that are covered in tattoos or they may even just have one or two?
are
roman and numerals most people tend to get a really significant date tattooed on them such as like the death of a really close relative
Or the birth of a child or an anniversary date but for me i had none of those things so i'm gonna do my
birthday i love myself
There we go may 23rd don't forget, to wish me a happy birthday
Another tattoo that i see all the time on different people is a rose
This is gonna be really really challenging and i'm kind of already regretting this but i'm gonna try to place a rose right
up in here wish me luck
this was literally
One of the worst cities i think i've ever had once i have the rough and i do mean very very rough
outline of the roads i'm gonna grab my morphe
e39 brush just this very very very
Tiny little brush and dip it to some black eyeshadow and try to shade the rose a little bit
honestly
not, bad another thing that i saw a lot of these edits were a butterflies butterflies are super intricate and usually their patterns are very
very symmetrical and beautiful so i'm gonna put this one a smack dab right in the middle of my throat so i can actually see
it in the freaking mirror and we can hopefully make it really really good
okay honestly not even gonna lie that butterfly turned out a lot better than i was expecting
Kind of living for this i think the last like big major tattoo i'm gonna do it's gonna be right over here i'm gonna put
A crown there because, i'm the queen of... Makeup
Drawing on the sides my neck is literally so hard i can't even begin to explain to you guys
how much pain in my eyes are in right now i think they're about to pop out of their freakin
sockets they should not be looking all the way over here but we're gonna make this work
Alright guys those are all the big tattoos finished my eyes currently feel like they're going to burst out of my head so i'm gonna
Take a quick little break then i'm gonna come back and do some tinier ones just in between to kind of fill the space
off-camera and i'll be right back with the finished punk at it in real life with makeup look
All right sisters i am back it has been about two hours now meaning i've been working on this for literally
Four hours but i think we are finally done with the finished look
Before we actually did makeup i used to draw all the time when i was honestly really
really good at it i used to practice every single day and i would draw portraits and all sorts of intricate really beautifully shaded drawings
So going into this i really didn't think this is gonna be that much of a challenge for me in particular
Boy was i wrong though
Hands down this is probably the hardest makeup challenge i have done to date i've talked about this in a few videos before but i don't
Exactly have the most steady hands i usually will start shaking if i get really really nervous or if i'm trying to work on something
very very detailed and intricate so this was a major major
Challenge for me i think by far the hardest part of this entire challenge was this rose tattoo even if i was doing a rose
On normal paper i think i would definitely have some trouble just because the shape and overall form of rose is very very hard to
capture on a 2d flat surface but
It was even more difficult because it's on the side of my neck where i have to literally like turn my eye all the way
Over here to even get a decent
Glimpse at this area and i still can barely even see what i'm doing my eyes literally were in so much pain
by the end of it but i think it turned out
decent
I already loved and respected
Tattoo artists before i used to watch tattoo videos all the time on youtube and would always want to go with my friends when they
got them done just
To see the artist in progress but i respect that even more now after trying it myself because this is so hard
