00:01Sorry, my ex-boyfriend just texted me.
00:05Hey guys, it's Mee-Anne.
00:06And Nikita.
00:07And this is Beauty With Me.
00:09You guys might have noticed that I'm here with Nikita Dragon.
00:13YouTube extraordinaire, activist, now makeup brand creator.
00:19Oh my god.
00:19Yeah, you're like the first person to say that.
00:21I guess that's true.
00:22Yeah, dude!
00:23The line's called Dragon Beauty.
00:24We're gonna use some of it today.
00:25But first, Nikita's gonna show me how she gets ready.
00:28The entire routine from start to finish.
00:31I'm really excited because this is the most product that I think I'll ever put on my face.
00:37Thank you so much for Final Year's 29 for having me.
00:38And thank you so much for having me on your show.
00:40I'm so excited!
00:41First, we're gonna start off with brows.
00:43I brush and then I'll just start doing like little brow strokes.
00:46I mean, I feel like it's such a beauty guru.
00:48Like, oh my god, I'm just gonna do a little brow hair stroke.
00:50And then you're gonna like brush through the brow to like make it look like just more natural.
00:54Tell me about Dragon Dragon and the persona that that is that you have become basically
00:59and how that kind of started.
01:01Basically, when I grew up in Springfield, Virginia, it was a very predominantly white, Caucasian community.
01:07My dad being an immigrant, my mom also being Mexican, you know, coming from two different mixed races.
01:11I stuck out in the classroom, so everyone would say that I look like a dragon because I was Asian.
01:17I kind of turned this dragon essence into this kind of character.
01:20So in my mind, I like created this like inner fire, that dragon being.
01:24And I feel like over the years, now I've been able to release that.
01:27And I like always just see that as like kind of like my alter ego.
01:30After I do my brows, I like to carve it out with concealer.
01:33Stick with the Make Up For Ever one because it's actually self-setting.
01:36So yeah, my trick is to do the lighter one underneath the brow.
01:41The darker concealer, the Make Up For Ever, just kind of to get like an even.
01:46Even base.
01:47Hide those veins.
01:48Actually, you know what's funny?
01:49The only reason why I have lid space is because I like trained my brow to go up.
01:52So you like gave yourself more of a lifted.
01:54You're right that you really have crafted your brows.
01:57I crafted my, I mean, I crafted my whole face.
01:59Let's be real.
01:59My whole body at this point.
02:00I've kind of always done things selfishly in my mind because I have been documenting my whole transition just as
02:06a part to be able to watch it back.
02:08And I really never thought anyone would watch it.
02:10Yeah, it really is.
02:11This is the Mario X KKW Moment.
02:15I literally use this palette for this shade right here.
02:18This top.
02:19The mid-tone brown?
02:19Mid-tone brown.
02:21Not you being a beauty guru.
02:23I was like, I'm like, we're using the KKW palette.
02:26Not sure if you guys can see it, if it's focusing.
02:30I know how to do it.
02:31I know how to do it.
02:32Use code BRI.
02:35That's BRI for 10% off.
02:37Do an outer corner.
02:38I'll blend it into the kind of crease area that we're kind of creating.
02:43This was like the step that I was most excited about when I started learning about how to do makeup
02:47on YouTube.
02:47It changes.
02:48I was like, windshield wiper motion.
02:50Windshield.
02:50Now we're going to take a brown pencil.
02:53What I like to do is lay down pretty much a liner before the liner.
02:57So I'm going to follow the lash line very close and tight, especially in the beginning area.
03:01And then I'm going to like kind of thicken it at the end.
03:03Okay.
03:04And then we're just going to blend it.
03:06With that same KKW palette, I'm going to take a good darker espresso moment.
03:11Now we're just going to intensify and blend out this situation that we have going on here.
03:17I wasn't even getting into how good you're looking.
03:20You're following so well.
03:22Yay!
03:23Now you're coming for my whole career.
03:26Now it's time to cut the crease.
03:28Okay.
03:28Never done this before, but I've seen it on Instagram a lot.
03:32This is what makes you an IG baddie.
03:34Let me tell you.
03:35After this girl, you are officially an Instagram beauty girl.
03:40Okay.
03:40Okay.
03:41We're just going to focus the product kind of towards the center here and then pull it up
03:45and then blend it out with a different brush.
03:47Got it.
03:50Now we have to set it.
03:51I would use the Huda.
03:52Use the Huda palette.
03:54The heater.
03:55This is the Huda Beauty nude palette.
03:58I take this shade right here, tap it right here to kind of blend in these two shadows
04:03between like the light and the dark that we have going on.
04:08I know you love liner so much.
04:10I love a liner moment.
04:12It's time!
04:14Following that same line, how we laid down that brown color very close to the lash line in the beginning
04:18and then I'll get thicker at the end and I'll just do like a slight little wing at the end.
04:22A little wing.
04:22A little wing.
04:24Boom.
04:25Magic.
04:25Oh my god.
04:27Is it time?
04:28Wait.
04:28It's time.
04:29It's time.
04:29It's time.
04:29It's time.
04:30It's time.
04:33Oh man.
04:34It is enormous.
04:35Okay.
04:37Yay!
04:39I'm going to open it.
04:40Yo, yeah.
04:40Go open it.
04:41Okay.
04:42It's yours.
04:43Oh my god.
04:44Hi.
04:44A little goes a very long way.
04:46I'm going to dot it all around.
04:48Notice how it's super creamy.
04:49It is so creamy.
04:50Very soft.
04:51And it's self-setting.
04:52So now that we applied it everywhere, it's...
04:54Don't you feel it?
04:55It's like, it's completely dry.
04:56It's like, ugh.
04:57We look nuts.
04:58Okay, foundation.
04:59This is the Warm Honey Hourglass Stick.
05:02Apply straight onto the skin.
05:08With the Dior foundation, I layer this on top of my already foundation.
05:13Like, I would do this.
05:14And you're going to die.
05:17And then give it to there.
05:18Yes.
05:20Yes.
05:21Yeah.
05:22Okay, there we go.
05:23You're dying.
05:23You're like...
05:24Oh my god.
05:26I don't know how to blend it all.
05:27This is so much foundation.
05:30I love her on you.
05:31Now I'm jumping into concealer.
05:34This is the Makeup Forever HD.
05:36The same one that we were using for our brows earlier.
05:38I love concealer.
05:40It is so, so easy to blend.
05:46This is when dragon starts to come out a little bit.
05:48Let me just tell you.
05:48She's like hatching a little bit.
05:50Like a little, like...
05:51Like a little crack in the egg.
05:52Now we're going to be setting our face with a skin tone powder.
05:55First go in probably with the Huda.
05:57Boom, bam, wham, bam.
05:59Thank you, ma'am.
06:00First layer of powder on.
06:01This smells so good.
06:02This smells like a bomber.
06:04Now we're bronzing.
06:05Follow the contours of our face here.
06:08I like to do cheekbone, jewel line.
06:11Do you do a forehead moment?
06:12Yes.
06:13I love to like leave the baking powder on just to marinate and like really soak up in the skin.
06:19That's half the nose.
06:21Okay.
06:21Let me see.
06:22Okay.
06:23Hold up, girl.
06:24I'm not going to let you play yourself.
06:26So I start from here on the brow bone.
06:28The trick is to focus the product up here.
06:30So you have to really shadow in this area in particular and then bring it down.
06:35But your nose is so good.
06:36Your nose is good.
06:37No, but I mean, it better be good after all the nose drops that I've had.
06:40I like a really pinky, corally blush.
06:46I love taking the bake off.
06:47It's so fun.
06:48It's so nice, right?
06:49Sometimes I even like love how like the bake like looks on.
06:52It's just so pretty to me.
06:53Spray time.
06:54I like to just melt everything into the skin and just get it going.
06:58Now we're getting into lashes.
06:59We're going to prep the lashes.
07:00It's so funny.
07:01I've gotten ready with some people and until I put on the lash.
07:04Oh, that's Nikita.
07:06Yeah.
07:07Okay.
07:08Yeah.
07:08Maybe I look different without makeup.
07:10But baby, just remember how I look with makeup.
07:12Yeah.
07:15Oh.
07:16Do you know how to do them?
07:18Are you sure?
07:19Okay.
07:19Put it.
07:20Let her get a little tacky for a second.
07:22Stick it to me in a weird way.
07:24Okay.
07:24I'm here.
07:25Your safety line at any moment.
07:27Did I do that right?
07:28Or did I do that?
07:28Really?
07:30Oh.
07:31That's right.
07:32Oh my God.
07:33I was like, I don't know.
07:34I'm not used to this.
07:37Ah!
07:38And then it's over for all of you.
07:41Damn.
07:43Oh my God.
07:45I'm finally here.
07:46Hi.
07:47Now we can move on to lip.
07:48This is my tried and true Morphe Sweet Tea Lip Liner.
07:52I am obsessed with this thing.
07:54For me, I over-line the top just in the middle.
07:57I bring the cupid's bow up and then the rest I'll line normal.
08:01This is the Dose of Colors in the shade A Mauve Story.
08:05It creates like the perfect little pink situation.
08:09I personally don't like to highlight all over because I get very, very oily.
08:13So I just only highlight down the center of the nose and kind of like the inner corner area.
08:22Now it's a lip gloss moment.
08:27All right.
08:29Final step.
08:32Are you ready?
08:33This is my Dragon Heart Transformation Powder.
08:37In the palette, I have two gorgeous shades.
08:38I have my pink opal and my yellow topaz.
08:40Pink opal is less intense and the yellow topaz is a little bit more intense.
08:44I would use the pink first and then we can do the yellow.
08:46Again, a little goes a very long way.
08:48Okay.
08:48It doesn't have a sort of highlight to it, but it does have like a slight luminescence.
08:54Yeah.
08:54It's not gonna...
08:54Is it matte?
08:55It looks kind of matte.
08:56Yeah.
08:56But it gives it that like...
08:57It's pretty much matte.
08:58It's very micropowder.
08:59It's like a face filter.
09:01And then now I'll dip into like the yellow shade a little bit.
09:04It just really allows you to like be like the architect of your own beauty.
09:09Boom!
09:13Transformers!
09:14Welcome to the House of Dragons.
09:15I like it.
09:16I wasn't sure.
09:17I was like, oh, it might be a lot because I'm not used to it.
09:20Of course.
09:20I mean, I think you looked absolutely beautiful when we started, but right now to me, you
09:26look like an actual goddess.
09:28Thank you for answering all my weird invasive questions.
09:31I love it.
09:31And showing me how to get the look.
09:33Thank you for sitting here for almost three hours and getting ready with me.
09:37It's been a process, but I'm so happy that you got to live your dragon fantasy and you
09:42look absolutely amazing.
