Disclaimer: there are many things I would do differently that I have learned over the last year (this is from 2011) I have tried to type in my corrections and advice along with the original photos. Enjoy and please send us a photo if you try this, we'd love to see it!!

Step one : fresh face and then do your foundation/concealer or whatever you like. (I waited a while, forgive my naked face for the photos!)
Step 2, make a plan! I used Beauty From The Earth Mineral shadows.
Step 3 after using primer over face, Use NYX Cosmetics Jumbo Eye Pencil in: Milk
4: Sticker stars!
5: (Should have started with the Red crease, but here I began with my base color.Peacock.)
Added red to my crease. and added more peacock to my lids.
Then 6: start adding Milk pencil to bottom lid area.
7: Using a fine brush, DAB/PAT red/dark pink shadow in bottom lid area. note: Black area = auto red-eye correction!
There should be no black eyeshadow whatsoever.
8: Using Blue liquid eyeliner from mark. girl in Blue Chrome, add blue stripes and winged line to top and bottom area.
9: Adding more definition, don't be afraid to thicken the eyeliner.
10: Remove stars and using white eyeliner, add a little to the vacant area.
Touching up more of the bottom red, and added some peacock to the bottom eyeliner. See the green sheen
11: Using white eyeliner, add definition to the outer wings, around the red.
12: personal choice- using the Blue Chrome eyeliner, I added some drawn stars. I could have done it on a little paper and pressed the shape on while wet, rather than drawing in the mirror. xD
13: Don't forget your mascara and curled eyelashes. Also defining your eyebrows is a good idea. Using Spellbound, a dark blue- I defined my crease over the blue, and the eyeliner a little better
14: I used False eyelashes for this, but in the end they weren't much different from my natural ones.
15: For my lips, I consequently used a white base and then put red over it, this made my lips look more full, we also added red glitter which really made it dazzle. *NOTE BY EMILY: The red lippie is #911D "Stoplight Red" by Wet N' Wild. I know you wanted to ask! ;)*
OK firecracker! you're ready!
Have a great summer and God Bless America!
