With a little practice and experimentation, you'll be able to create your own unique drag persona and turn heads wherever you go. So let's get started!
- Start with a clean slate: Cleanse your face and apply a hydrating moisturizer. For drag makeup, use a primer with grip to help the makeup adhere better and last longer.
-
Create an even base: Apply a full coverage foundation that matches your skin tone. Use a beauty sponge or brush to blend it out evenly. Drag queens often use two shades of foundation to contour and highlight the face.
-
Conceal and correct: Use a color corrector to neutralize any discoloration or dark spots. Apply a concealer to the under-eye area and any other areas that need extra coverage. Blend out the concealer with a brush or sponge.
-
Contour and highlight: Use a cream or powder contour to sculpt your cheekbones, jawline, and forehead. Drag queens often exaggerate the contour to create a more dramatic effect. Apply a light-colored highlighter to your cheekbones, nose, and cupid's bow for a glowing effect.
-
Add color: Apply a blush to the apples of your cheeks. Drag queens usually use a bright, bold color for a dramatic effect. Don't be afraid to be bold!
-
Define your eyes: Start with a primer, and then apply eyeshadow. Drag queens often use bright colors and bold glitter to create an eye-catching look. Use a liquid eyeliner to define your eyes, and finish with mascara or false lashes to make your eyes pop.
-
Fill in your brows: Use an eyebrow pencil or pomade to create full, dramatic brows. Drag queens often overdraw their brows to create a more feminine or theatrical effect.
-
Finish with lipstick: Choose a lipstick color that complements your outfit and skin tone. Drag queens often use bright, bold colors to create a statement. Use a lip liner to define your lips and prevent the lipstick from bleeding.
-
Set your makeup: Use a setting spray to lock your makeup in place and prevent it from smudging or fading.
Remember, drag makeup is all about creativity and self-expression. Don't be afraid to experiment with colors and techniques to find what works best for you. With practice, you'll master the art of flawless drag makeup!
