When Disney meets Art and Eyeshadow.

Dear Readers,

I don't consider myself to be particularly talented at applying makeup. I can do a decent smokey eye. I somehow manage to pull off flicked eyeliner. I can follow an easy tutorial on YouTube and recreate, say, 70% of the look. But that's it, nothing too fancy. (Yet, enough to know that extremely drawn eyebrows look tacky. For Christ's sake, I just wish the woman I saw this morning reads this..)

But, unlike me, some people are really talented! Like, REALLY talented. One such person is make-up artist Katie Alves, who creates stunning and very elaborate looks. Some of her looks are inspired by our favourite Disney movies. As soon as I stumbled upon some pictures of her work, I felt like I had to share this incredible talent with you all! I have heard about make-up artists who did 'Cinderella looks', 'Snow-White looks' or something along those lines. However, Alves work is different. She literally paints a scene from Disney movies on her models' eyelids. How cool is that?

Take a look at some of Alves' work below. Let's see whether you can tell which movie inspired which look :)

'Aladdin'

'Alice in Wonderland'

'Lion King'

Awhh my fave! 'The Nightmare before Christmas'

'Snow White'

'Tangled'

Oh geez, all these looks make me feel like a newbie!

Don't forget to visit Katie Alves' Facebook page here, and like my page here..while you're at it :p. All pictures used above were taken from Styleite.
