Danielle:
Oh here we go.

Katie:
We are live. Hello everyone. Hi Danielle.

Danielle:
Hi Katie.

Katie:
This is Lewk Club Live. We are doing Holiday Edition so I'm very excited. Danielle how about you?

Danielle:
Yeah, I'm super excited. I'm a little tired from work but I'm still excited.

Katie:
Me too. I'm not tired from work but I am excited. We are at Elektra. We are going to give you a quick rundown of what we're doing here. We are trying to keep ourselves inspired, trying to find ways to continue to create while we are at home. So the Lewk Club is the way that we are going to keep ourselves creative. We're going to try out new products. We're going to be inspired by different prompts and tonight's prompt is holiday look so
we are going to create a never-before-seen look. I've never created this look. Danielle and I will be inspired by holiday colors. Last week we did Pumpkin Spice and it's really fun. If you're at home, use this as a prompt. Do a look that's with whatever you got at home, something that's holiday
inspired. You'll end up coming up with a really fun look that you might not have put together. So we've created a little custom Creative Capsule. This is very similar to our holiday which we will be launching soon. A holiday look in a box. So everything you will need to make an entire holiday look and including a video tutorial on how to do it. So we're getting inspired by this new product that we will be launching soon. We will have more detail for you in the next week. But for today, we're using some sooner products that we think would look amazing at any holiday party or any holiday staying at home. I'm gonna start going through some of the products Danielle and I are going to be using tonight. So we are going to be featuring our power pigments or a great mineral product that is a beautiful shimmer it is... help me out Danielle

Danielle:
I mean they're just so fun. They're colorful. They're bright. They're shimmery. I mean they're just beautiful. They're really soft on the skin, non-abrasive, really easy to use

Katie:
And tonight we'll use them as eye shadow. We'll use them as highlighter. We'll use them as lipstick but you can also do almost like a full face paint with them. They're very long-lasting if you mix them with our liquid transformer.

So this is Golden Hour. If you can see right there, this really pretty white with a gold tint to it. This is my favorite highlighter to use lately.

So I'm excited to show you that our gold for our holiday look is Maid of Orleans and this is just like literally liquid gold. You can paint it on. You'll look like one of the street performers with that.

And since we're doing a little bit of a holiday theme, we wanted to throw a green in there and this is City Park. It's a beautiful deep, kind of jade green. It's maybe a little more blue than that and it's so pretty. It's deep but it's got so many layers to it, and very lush I would say.

So those are our three power pigments that we'll be using. And like I said, we'll show you a few different ways to use them. If you don't have power
pigments at home but you're feeling inspired and you want to do a holiday look, no worries, use whatever you've got.

Our microfine that we're using tonight is Gold AB, which we will be having a new glitter. We're going to be launching some microfines, some new ones soon. And the Bolt Balm that we're using today, we're actually using a body shimmer that looks great on the face as well. It's called Fire Opal. It is so pretty. It's one of our favorites. It goes with everything. It's got a lot of more microfine glitter in it so it's still a chunky glitter but it has such a
texture to it because there's so much beautiful goodness in there. It's very multi-dimensional. You will see when we put it on this is also my favorite thing to put underneath other chunky bolt Balm, so if you have black and gold or Midas Touch, I love to layer this on this. There you go. Layer this on first

Danielle:
Yeah, so I love to tint it. So you can lay it down on your skin and then you can use a microfine on top of it while it is still wet, which is really cool
because let's say I wanted a rose gold highlight or I wanted it to be blue, I could just add one of our microfine glitters just right on top and just kind of blend it in

Katie:
It's very pretty. Actually, you gave me an idea. I forgot that's what I ended up doing. I used that Fire Opal I just showed you and I put Gold AB on top of it for New Year's eve and I looked like I was liquid gold baby and oddly enough it didn't make an amazing 2020. I don't know even though I looked so good. I'm so sorry guys, it was my fault.

Danielle:
I have this fancy dancy little palette that I bought from Amazon. It's like a makeup palette. You don't need this fancy waxed paper plate but I just like to separate things out and this is great too because if you are like me and like to get ready with your friends in a group, you're not dipping into your glitters, you're not dipping into your pigments, it really keeps a clean environment to always just place out what you need separately. Use what you need, dispose of the rest. It just keeps that clean environment. It's gonna help prolong the life of your products by subdividing them out each time you use them. There's not going to be any contamination. So I have just learned to always kind of distribute them

Katie:
And still a good idea even my plate is less fancy but I just have my plate, but you can do the same thing like Danielle just said with your friends. Everyone just has their own little plate, just like you have your wine glass. Maybe you can ride on, you know this is my special plate so we can all play with makeup together.

I already got Power Pigment on my forehead so I just mixed a little bit of Liquid Transformer with Golden Hour. I just did one drop into two, I had done two little dabs of Golden Hour here. Golden Hour is definitely a favorite of mine. Right now, I'm putting it in the corner of my eye and on my brow bone but I love it as a highlighter.

Danielle:
And I'm just putting a little eye primer on first. I am a big proponent of eye primer. Eye primer preps the surface of your eye. It helps prevent creasing. It also helps preserve the color of the shadow that you're using because it prevents like an oxidation reaction with your skin. That sounds right, right?

Katie:
Yes

Danielle:
It also is a primer so it's going to create a a good surface to build color onto. So if you've ever used eyeshadow with or without primer, there's a big difference. You'll get a much brighter color. You'll get a longer lasting look if you use a primer. I use things like Urban Decay eye primer which you can find at Sephora but soon soon soon soon you will be able to experience some of our power primers

Katie:
Yet to be released primer. I agree with everything Danielle just said. It sounded very scientific and accurate. I'll probably just be like it looks better, it feels better when you do a primer. I also like it's a crime not to prime, but if you don't have a primer, what I'll do is I'll use a really good thick concealer and just apply it. That's what I did today and just put it on my lid as well. I definitely will use a primer if I'm going to be wearing shadow all day or like when I went to the Renaissance Festival a couple weekends ago. But tonight I'm gonna have it all, I'll be all done up, I'll take a few photos and then I'll take it off, which I definitely got used to during quarantine. It was hard at first putting on beautiful makeup and then just taking it off and going nowhere, but now it's it's a fun little ritual. I get pretty, I get fun. So this is also, again, I hope for y'all an excuse to get creative and do your face.
