00:03Thus I give you the tingles.
00:10Hi everyone, my name is Nessa Barrett and today I'm going to be showing you my signature black eyeliner smokey
00:19eye.
00:19Let's get into it.
00:21This is my makeup pouch.
00:25I don't know if it sounds good.
00:30I usually use this like huge black box that I put all my makeup in but since I'm only showing
00:38you my eyeliner look.
00:40I put everything in this soft pouch because I thought it might be ASMR but I don't know.
00:51I'm really bad at doing my makeup on camera so hopefully I don't mess this up.
00:54The first product I'm using is the Charlotte Tilbury Rockin' Coal eyeliner.
01:00Oh, feels very fitting.
01:03Was that good?
01:04Thus I give you the tingles.
01:07This one also has a side where you can like smudge it which is kind of cool.
01:15I also use another eyeliner.
01:18Two different eyeliners for this look.
01:20It's the NYX Eye Pencil.
01:22It's really good too.
01:23But I use this one for my actual lid.
01:27I use this compact mirror everywhere I go.
01:31It has Vampyra on it.
01:33I love her but I'm super blind and so I need to see everything super close and so this comes
01:41in handy.
01:43I am really bad at using my contacts because I'm really scared that they might get stuck in my eye.
01:50Which is a big fear of mine so I wear glasses.
01:54I might have to sharpen this.
02:03Can you hear that?
02:04The trick of this is to be super messy.
02:07I'm not perfect and I think that's the whole point of this.
02:13I kind of just draw a line on top of my eyelid and hope for the best.
02:19I never really got into makeup I think only until like a few years ago.
02:26When I was a kid I used to do my Mimi's makeup for fun.
02:31She also used to wear black eyeliner and so I think that's when I first started to play around with
02:36it.
02:37But now I do my makeup myself for all of my shows and my music videos and so I think
02:44I've gotten a little better at it over the years.
02:47I actually just finished a few intimate shows that I did in celebration of my EP release Jesus Love Supreme
02:56Madonna.
02:57It was really fun.
02:58The whole vibe was super gothic and witchy and so I really wanted my makeup to be that way too.
03:06But getting ready I kind of just sit backstage, do my makeup and me and my band sing a few
03:12songs.
03:13It's very chill.
03:15I actually didn't really have any inspo behind my album name.
03:19It was just a lyric that I wrote in a song of my West Coast prayer and I thought it
03:24sounded cool.
03:25Now that my eyeliner is on pretty messily, I go in with this makeup by Mario palette and use the
03:37black eyeshadow and I smudge it out a lot.
03:43Is that too loud?
03:45Oh, it's kind of magnetic so it's like hard.
03:55I find a lot of new makeup from my friends because they're all really good at doing their makeup and
04:01so I really trust their judgment.
04:04I don't know where I found this palette for the first time but thank god I did.
04:09It saved my life.
04:11I'm going in with this black one.
04:17I do this eye look every single show.
04:20Which is kind of funny because you'd think that I'd be better at it by now but every time I
04:25do it it looks different.
04:26So I guess that's kind of the beauty behind makeup.
04:29I think for me personally, I really only ever do my makeup if I'm playing a show or going out
04:37with my friends.
04:39So on a normal day, I don't really do my makeup which is kind of nice because it's like a
04:47special treat for me when I get to wear it.
04:50Because I do find the act of doing makeup really relaxing.
04:56I really love to meditate and I think that doing makeup sometimes makes me feel like I'm doing my own
05:05form of meditation.
05:07I do love a good affirmation. Those are really nice.
05:11But I also love meditation frequencies.
05:16444 hertz is really nice.
05:19888.
05:21There's so many really good ones that I just get on YouTube.
05:27I love listening to music when I get ready.
05:31Also, if I'm reading a good book, sometimes I'll throw on the audio version of it so I can listen
05:36to it while I'm getting ready.
05:39Now what I do is I go back in with my eyeliner and add a little bit more.
05:48I don't really know how to explain my process.
05:51I kind of just look and do what feels good.
05:54So...
05:58A few songs on my Get Ready With Me playlist.
06:02Paradise Circus from Massive Attack.
06:06Maybe Glory Box by Portishead.
06:09Anything by Lana Del Rey.
06:12Maybe a few Nessa Parrot songs.
06:19Picking a favorite Lana Del Rey song is nearly impossible.
06:22Probably right now.
06:25A and W.
06:27Does this sound?
06:28Can you hear that?
06:34Does that sound good?
06:42I'm drawing X's on the mic.
06:44That's kind of a thing that I do.
06:48Every time I text something, I always had a nice X for a kiss.
06:54I think my song, Venom, off of my new EP would sound so good in ASMR.
07:04It's already kind of moody and gentle and sensual and dark.
07:11Which, when I listen to it, I feel all the feels, so I think that one would be a good
07:16ASMR one.
07:17My favorite lyric from my song, Venom.
07:19I like my roses dying.
07:21And I watch as my heart turns black.
07:25So me.
07:27Now it's time for the scariest part.
07:30Which is putting the eyeliner in my actual eyes.
07:35Right for me.
07:36This one is the NYX Eye Pencil.
07:38I really like this one for inside my eyes because it's really dark and it stays dark.
07:44Sometimes it's really hard to get, like, the inside of your eyes super black.
07:51And then this one does the job, so.
07:54I take a Q-tip and I dry out my water line because I'm also a crier in my eyes
07:59water all the time.
08:01So, it's very important.
08:02This step, which is actually a really hard way of doing it.
08:05I may need to, like, maneuver some things around.
08:13Okay.
08:15Cool.
08:17Recording and writing my EP was really fun.
08:24I work with amazing people and we feel like family.
08:32Oh my god, I actually didn't realize how hard this would be on camera.
08:40This EP is really different from my past music because, I don't know, I just feel super connected to it.
08:47It really embodies everything I love, which is all things dark and this tragic romance.
08:56And yeah, it's all my favorite music I've ever made.
08:59I think this project definitely is something in between transitional period for all things to come, but kind of the
09:08beginning of this new world that I'm trying to build.
09:12Okay. Not too bad.
09:15If my makeup routine could talk, it would probably say I might be a little indecisive.
09:23I don't know. I never really know what I want to do.
09:26Actually, that's kind of a lie. I'm totally lying right now.
09:30I did probably say that I'm boring because I always stick to the same thing.
09:34I think that's kind of my smokey eye.
09:37But I do have some fun ASMR props to play with.
09:41So I'm going to try my best to bring those out and give you some tangles.
09:46I actually watch ASMR all the time, so...
09:49My favorite type of ASMR is when people do my makeup for me or I get a haircut.
09:58I love the small ones.
10:10That feels really nice, actually.
10:23Okay.
10:24Okay, it's really high.
10:27That might be too much, okay?
10:29How's that?
10:30If I was stranded on a deserted island, I feel like I would have to bring any sort of lip
10:41product, lip liner, lipstick.
10:44I feel like lipstick is what really makes a makeup look.
10:49This is my go-to lip color.
10:53It's the NARS lip crayon in the shade Bohemian Rhapsody.
11:00If you can't tell, I use it quite a lot because it's, yeah, almost shaped down to nothing.
11:07I'm just a matte curly. I don't really wear gloss ever.
11:12I don't know why that is.
11:13I think, personally on me, I like a more matte look.
11:17Something younger me wouldn't believe that I'm doing now has to be just singing on a stage.
11:26I think that's really crazy.
11:29I've always wanted to be a singer growing up, but I always thought that I'd be too scared to sing
11:35in front of a crowd.
11:37And so, I think she'd be really stoked that I'm touring.
11:41My first ever show that I've ever done, I was so scared.
11:49So scared.
11:50But it was great.
11:52And the fear never really goes away.
11:54I still get scared to this day, but it's kind of what makes it a little exciting.
12:00Something I tell myself before I go on stage is just have fun.
12:05I love music and it's super cool that I get to sing my songs with my fans.
12:13And so I like to remind myself that that's the most important part.
12:17I have no idea what the hell these are.
12:20They seem really cool.
12:22Lavender scented lotion first.
12:32These things are always so hard to open.
12:39Oh my god.
12:46Honestly, this feels super weird.
12:50I don't even know why I would describe this.
12:52I'm like really regretting my decision.
12:54Does it sound good at least?
12:58Maybe a little weird.
13:02It feels weird.
13:08Can you hear that?
13:13If I could whisper one thing to my younger self, I think I would whisper,
13:21I love you.
13:24Huh?
13:24That was so weird.
13:26I'm gonna play with some brushes now.
13:28Maybe if you're watching this, close your eyes and pretend I'm doing your makeup.
13:41I wish I could hear it.
13:43I wish I could hear it.
13:45Okay.
14:12One piece of makeup advice that I would give is to just do what feels good to you.
14:22And to wear whatever makes you feel confident.
14:25You don't need to do what everyone else is doing or follow any sort of makeup tutorial.
14:31I think just have fun and create something that makes you feel good.
14:39Okay, everyone, thank you so much for watching me do my smokey eye.
14:46I hope you enjoyed.
14:49Make sure to listen to my new EP, Jesus Loves a Prima Donna.
14:55I love you.
14:56Bye.
