Gallery Update - Tulisa
Saturday 17th Dec 2011 10:41pm - Comments (66) - Back to the blog
Love it or loathe it, one thing's for sure, its impossible to get away from the phenomenon that is the the X Factor at this time of year. Here is a shoot I worked on with British singer/songwriter (and one of this years UK X Factor judges) Tulisa Contostavlos. Fans of the show will know by now that Little Mix (who I loved!), the girlband Tulisa mentored, won the competition - but at the time of this Glamour shoot the process had only just begun.
Tulisa is a naturally very pretty girl with a unique style so I kept her look very simple. Changing only the lip colour for the different shots - a pale, nude pink for the close up beauty shot, bright orange and pinks for the fashion shots and a fresh raspberry for the cover.
Tulisa has amazing eyes which I accentuated with a thick black liquid liner placed graphically along the top lashes and a much softer, more blended smokey powder line along the lower lash line. A full set of lashes and defined 'Elzabeth Taylor inspired' brows kept the focus of the eye-make-up on the top lid and gave the make-up an updated 'old school' glamour feel.
To create all the lip colours used, I mixed and blended shades from my beloved lip palettes.

What do you think of the look I gave her?

Cathrin Hansen - Thursday Dec 29th 2011 11:48pm
i love the makeup in this pictures :)
Suhmat - Saturday Dec 24th 2011 10:07am
On the first shot, it really is very similar to Elizabeth Taylor. She smiles differently. Maybe if she would be a serious illusion that young Liz will be more. Beautiful look
Darlene - Friday Dec 23rd 2011 2:03pm
would love if you posted the products you used on her
RUEDERIVOLI - Thursday Dec 22nd 2011 8:02am

Just wonder if there is any chance that you could do a natural make up tutorial for Asian?

You need need need to do a tutorial on this look!! I adore the eye-makeup, AND the lip colour, plus I love Tulisa's style...please, if you could Lisa? :) xx
Lisa - Tuesday Dec 20th 2011 10:56pm
I would LOVE LOVE LOVE it if you would do a video on this specific eye shape... placement on hooded eyes can be difficult and I have been trying to recreate this EXACT look for YEARS. Thank you again for ALL of your great videos!!
elodie - Tuesday Dec 20th 2011 3:58pm
WOW so beautiful! please lisa can you make a video about this look :) A french fan
KelmoBotBot - Tuesday Dec 20th 2011 11:43am
any advise would be so much apprecicated. Kerrie
KelmoBotBot - Tuesday Dec 20th 2011 11:43am
I wanted to pick the brains of any Lonodn make-up artists please? I am looking to do an introduction make-up artist course. Evenings or weekends. i was thinking of the London School of Make-up & Beauty. I went to visit the college and it just seems a little old fashioned! Does anyone have any advise as to good make-up schools/colleges etc.
cerise - Tuesday Dec 20th 2011 10:42am
Lisa, you're so talented! Every look you design is beautiful, natural, actual and sophiticated at the same time. I dont'know how you do it. You're a true inspiration for all make-up and beauty lovers! You must do a tutorial for this gorgeous look (but maybe a less dramatic more daily version as a previous commenter said). It's the first time I comment but I must say I'm a huge huge fan of your blog since I discovered it last year . Many kisses from Paris!
AnnaArtable - Tuesday Dec 20th 2011 8:37am
I love it! I'm going to try it since I think it would be perfect makeup to wear on the New Year’s Eve: simply and chic :-) Buon Natale e buon anno nuovo dear Lisa!
Simona - Monday Dec 19th 2011 12:42pm
Absolutely beautiful, Lisa. You are a true inspiration. I’ve been wanting to tell you just how truly inspirational you are for quite some time. I have to say that I’ve never been much into make-up, it all seemed too complicated and I never seemed to like the way make-up looked, but every time I watch one of your videos everything makes sense. I love the simplicity and the femininity of your looks, the celebration of beauty really. Thank you very much for spending time to make these videos, for being so truly amazing. Every bit of advice you give makes my day. Thank you and all the best wishes for this holiday season!
Nataly - Monday Dec 19th 2011 7:54am
I love it! Very nice lipstick? What is it? I just try to find something like this!
Diana - Monday Dec 19th 2011 7:01am
I love the way you make her beautiful in the most subtle way. I try to do a look which in my mind looks like that but can never achieve it. Congratulations on your talent!
Katia - Monday Dec 19th 2011 2:20am
Always love your work! She is beautiful girl.
SK - Monday Dec 19th 2011 12:43am
Would you consider doing a tutorial about some of your favourite blushes and way(s) to apply it.
luckyyy28 - Sunday Dec 18th 2011 11:30pm
It's very chic,simple and U must do a tutorial with this look,with U or a model,please!
Checkers - Sunday Dec 18th 2011 11:11pm
I would love to see tutorial for her look as well; she looks clean and simple but still looks very stylish
Bianca Petermann - Sunday Dec 18th 2011 10:22pm
Dear Lisa, thank you for telling me where to post my request for a look. My idea for a new YouTube video would be for you to recreate a look with the exact same products - if possible - that one of your viewers normally uses to do their make up. And maybe then you could 'judge' whether the product choices are good and/or whether other product/shade-combinations would work better together. I can tell you about what kind of make up I wear quite regularly: I (think I) have combination skin & I am prone to acne. I have freckles & some light acne scarring :(... Skin: 1) Shisheido White Lucent - Brightening Moisturizing Gel 2) Estee Lauder Idealist Pore Minimizing Skin Refinisher (sometimes) 3) Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua in B-30 (Beige Sable) 4) Make Up Forever HD blush in #6 5) Make Up Forever HD Mircofinish Powder 6) Mac Bronzing Powder in Bronze to contour or: Benefit Hoola (I don't use a concealer, though I probably should. I have the Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage concealer in SC-3 but it's a bit hard for under the eyes, which is why I don't use it. Would like a smoother alternative, but I don't know which shade would work with Chanel Vita Lumiere Aqua in B-30 Beige Sable) Eyes: 1) Mac Paint Pot in Soft Ochre as a base or Urban Decay Primer potion in Eden 2) Mac Brule e/s all over lid 3) Mac Rise Paper as highlighter under brow & inner corner 4) Mac Club eyeshadow all over lid (under socket line/ crease) 5) Mac Bronze Bronzing Powder in the crease (to warm up) 6) Urban Decay e/s in the color 'Smog' (from UD book of shadows vol. 1) under lower lashline 7) Chanel Stylo Yeux Waterproof in Ébene around the eye on waterline & a bit in between lashes (2 thirds in, avoiding inner corner) with tiny flick on upper lashline or: Estee Lauder Double Wear Eye Pencil in 01 Onyx 8) Max Factor False Lash Effect Waterproof Mascara Lips: 1) Burt's Bees lip balm (applying at the same time as moisturizer to let set) 2) Guerlain Rouge G Le Brilliant in B21 (color named Bianca ;)) and for night time or if I need a bit more color: 3) Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet in 'La Fascinante' (nr. 38) lightly dabbed (learned that in your "One Lipstick, many different ways to wear it" video. THX) That's it! I hope you don't LOL by my choices & combinations ;)... It would be awesome if you could recreate one of your viewer's looks. I think this has never been done before by any YouTube make up guru. Thanks again! Much love & best wishes from Holland, Bianca P.S. I'm @ffirmation on Twitter

Please make a tutorial on this look:-) It's gorgeous!
SK - Sunday Dec 18th 2011 5:17pm
I simply love your work. You truly inspire me. I've learned a lot from you. Would you please say your thougts on Nars blushes and in particular Nars Orgasm. I'm desperately looking for an everyday (pinky/neutral) blush, but I just don't know which one to choose... Do you have a safe choice that you would recommend? Beside Bourjois and Chanel...
shelleykerr83 - Sunday Dec 18th 2011 5:01pm
Hi Lisa, I would love to see a video of this look x

Hi Lisa, Is perfection lumiere really long lasting? Would it rival Estee LAuder Doublewear? Thanks x
Darbyzzz - Sunday Dec 18th 2011 1:26pm

Sunday Dec 18th 2011 1:17pm

Irene - Sunday Dec 18th 2011 11:26am
I really love how you did this, modern retro! ;o)And Tulisa is sooooo beautiful, a great canvas for you to work on. I've never heard of Tulisa before (I'm from the Netherlands), but after this post I'll search for more information and pictures.

Bee - Sunday Dec 18th 2011 10:25am
Aw this looks lovely, made-up but still natural too. Would love a tutorial! xxx
Donna - Sunday Dec 18th 2011 9:46am
Beautiful! I Love how you just bring out each person's natural beauty - you still see the person, not that make up - but they still look made-up at the same time. Love it!
Chiara - Sunday Dec 18th 2011 9:42am
I think that this look is fabulos! Chic and dramatic at the same time...she looks gorgeous.
Esty - Sunday Dec 18th 2011 5:06am
Gorgeous makeup! Thanx lisa, we all enjoy your work!!.... Can you do a meet & greet in NYC? Id luv it!!
Jane in NYC - Sunday Dec 18th 2011 2:46am
She looks gorgeous! But may I make a request? If you do the tutorial, do a more real-life version (without the faux lashes) and then the editorial look. Some of us are just too cautious (or old!) for such a dramatic look!
Alex - Sunday Dec 18th 2011 2:20am
Love the close up shot with the nude lip. Would love to see a tutorial please xx
Dana - Sunday Dec 18th 2011 1:42am

Joanne McDonough - Saturday Dec 17th 2011 11:57pm
As usual...love your creative works of art. What do you think of "Obsessive Compulsive" Lip Tars? I visited the new studio in NYC this week and fell in love with the new one "Pretty Boy". I have a selection and love to mix up colors on the spot.
Kathrina - Saturday Dec 17th 2011 11:48pm
Amazing job Lisa! Please do a tutorial on how to do cat eyes using powder shadows.Thank you!
