FOTD: Inspired Erica Dixon LAHHATL Reunion Makeup Look

Hello Beauties,


If you aren't tuned into Monday nights reality TV, well your just missing out. I love a great drama movie but a dramatic TV show is even better nowadays. Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta has come to a first season end and I have enjoyed every episode of it. My favorite characters are: K Michelle, Erica, Scrappy and let me just say Stevie J cause without him the show would not be something to talk about or watch, even though I don't condone his behavior but that's another story itself. Now the ladies looked lovely with their makeup and hair for the reunion show... oh snaps... minus Buckeey with that ridiculous hairstyle O_o 
Erica Dixon makeup look had me gasping because as you know it almost Fall season and she was rocking that dark purple lip and contoured like no other... now that was a "beat face". Being that her look was all that, I had to recreate and I can't wait to recreate it again and rock it out on the town one of these nights. I really enjoyed recreating it so check out my 'inspired' version.

I even tried the hair but I don't know how to get the swoop right so, I will leave the hair to the pros. Nevertheless I am in no way a look a like of Erica, it is an inspired version of her look. Now I attempted a video tutorial for this look but I was so out of frame, so it doesn't make any sense to post that video.
Btw I am loving the lip color, I will be rocking lots of purple lips this Fall... beware!!

Who from the LAHHATL: Reunion show makeup look will I be recreating next???? ..... take a guess!!



Be Beautiful & be smart!!
