"Hi I'm Yvette Parish, and this is my beautiful model Tam Welton today, and what we are going to be doing is doing a dramatic make over on Tam. We are going to be, we are on the lips now, and if you notice we have a beautiful dramatic eye, we have beautiful soft cheeks and a pink color that complements the eyes: this is a cool look and I don't want to do too much on her lips, because I want all the emphasis to be on her eyes. So what I have here is a couple of different lip glosses. Her lips are naturally kind of pink. Some people lips are naturally brown, I've seen red, red lips, she's got a beautiful natural lip. So I'm going to take a couple of lip glosses and put it on my palette here that I have. They are kind of a nude, mauvey, natural; this one has little bit of shimmer in it, a little pink in it. I'm going to apply the lip glosses with the brush, because you have all control over the brush, and I'm kind of mixing the colors and rolling the brush into the lip gloss. Then I'm going to apply it. So this way it looks like her whole lip color just shinier. Alright and I'm just applying it right here under the lip. Under that area right here. I want to make sure I utilize every part of her lip. It is such a pretty color, and if you notice without a lip liner it has a much more casual look to the lip, and that way we are not so sharp. You know really, really sharp eyes and then do really really sharp lips, and then do a straight that is too dramatic, too much for the face. So what I want to do is just bring out all of her eyes. I did a natural pretty lip; they kind of look like her own lips. And that way, when she goes out—cause I hear she does occasionally—she would have a pretty dramatic look with false eyelashes; and this is a cool look using plums and grays and blacks and purples and a little bit of a pinky and a little bit of a mauve cheek."
