Our R29 staff tried a classic Kendall Jenner look without a mirror.
Transcript
00:00Hi, my name's Amber, and I accept the No Mirror Makeup Challenge.
00:04We are doing a smokey eye.
00:08OK, so here is a picture of what we're trying to achieve today.
00:11I'm feeling a little bit nervous because I've never
00:15applied fake eyelashes myself, ever.
00:17I'm going to start with what I think is the easiest thing,
00:21doing a nude lip.
00:22So this is going to be a nude shade.
00:25Can't really mess this up.
00:28I'm looking at the ceiling as if maybe something's going to be a sign.
00:32That didn't feel too bad, and I feel like if I am outside of the lines,
00:35because it's nude, it'll be a little less obvious.
00:39Now let's go for shadow.
00:42So I've got two palettes here.
00:46I'm going to start with the base color of the shimmery silver.
00:50All right.
00:51Ooh.
00:56I feel like I'm going to put it in the middle of my forehead.
01:00All right.
01:02All right.
01:03All right.
01:04The smokey eye is really easy to mess up in the mirror.
01:08It's like I can't get my stuff together here.
01:12OK.
01:13So that's the black part.
01:15I'm going to put some of this silver in the center.
01:19And it's almost like a cat eye, but with eye shadow.
01:23So if I start my cat eye here, is that too far?
01:26Oops.
01:26Yeah, that's way too far.
01:28I can feel it.
01:28That was like the side of my head.
01:30Oof.
01:31I got this.
01:32I got this.
01:32I got this.
01:33I got this.
01:33Boy, this looks just like subtle.
01:35Done with my eye shadow, and this is as good as it's going to get.
01:38Next is eyelashes.
01:39What if I just like glue my eyes shut by accident?
01:47I feel like I'm like on pretty close to the eyelashes.
01:51Oh, that doesn't feel good at all.
01:55Always make sure that they're a little dry.
02:00And this is really hard.
02:01You have to find your lash line.
02:10Okay.
02:13Okay, so we're going to use some eyeliner.
02:15This is like a kind of brown, dark brown shade.
02:19So I'm going to start with the bottom and give the top of it a break.
02:24So normally, I do put on lashes first, and then I put on liner to cover the lash line.
02:30See?
02:35Oh, this is so bad.
02:37This is the top of my eye.
02:39Last step, mascara to blend your lashes and your falsies together.
02:50And done.
02:52How do I look?
02:53Bam!
02:54How do I look?
02:55There you have it.
02:58Beautiful.
02:58I'm confident that I look just like this.
03:02This is going to be fucking hilarious.
03:06I definitely look a drag queen.
03:11Oh, my God.
03:13You didn't tell me it was this bad.
03:18Oh, I'm not.
03:20I am impressed with myself.
03:23You're also not completely glued on.
03:25I've got eyeshadow everywhere.
03:26I can deal with this, like, in, like, low light conditions at all times.
03:34I feel like a little girl that just found her mom's makeup bag for the first time and went totally
03:39crazy.
03:40Not my kind of nude.
03:41I was a kid.
03:42That's too good.
03:42That's too good.
03:42That's pretty good.
