Drag Queens Reveal Their Master Beauty Secret List For Perfect Skin and Flawless Finished Makeup
If you have ever been to a drag show, you are sure to have been dazzled by their unbelievable makeup and overall look. Drag became a mainstream in the culture during the 80s and has only thrived since. Then, in the 90’s, RuPaul hit the scene and changed the game forever with fierce and life changing makeup. Wrapped up in glam, glitter and good looks, these are some drag queen beauty secrets you can bring into your everyday life!
It’s Time to “Bake Your Face”
Baking and cooking aren’t just terms for the kitchen. These two terms describe a makeup technique that Kim Chi uses. All you have to do, is apply your foundation or powder and allow the product to warm up on your face before blending. This allows for a smooth application that looks flawless!
Bust Out
Joslyn Fox knows a thing or two about creating a breast enhancement in a couple minutes with this beauty trick. Fox says all you have to do is contour your breasts “like you do your cheeks.” Put on a push up bra you love, take bronzer and “follow the McDonald’s arches on your chest with a big M shape.” You can follow up with a highlighter after this to enhance your chest to look it’s absolute best!
So Long Wrinkles
Drag queen, Tammie Brown, is a big fan of using egg whites to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. Dab egg whites over your wrinkles once a day to see the effects overtime. Leave on for about 5 minutes and you are go to go. Morning works best for this as you can complete your full-makeup look and be ready to head out the door.
Matchy Matchy
When you’re looking for your next favorite foundation, Miss Fame says to match the shade not only to your face, but to your neck and shoulders, as well. Miss Fame has assisted with Pat McGrath, so she knows a thing, or twelve about beauty hacks. Miss Fame says matching to your neck and shoulders is best because the shade is lighter. You won’t risk going too dark on your foundation by mistake.
Extra Kissable Lips
Not a lot of people do this, but it is crucial to leveling up your lip game. Jujubee is all about exfoliating your lips. Jujubee uses a warm towel with vitamin E oil to gently rub away dead skin cells in a circular motion. Do this at least once a week. You will feel your lips feel softer and your lipgloss applies easily.
No. 1 Rule
Never forget that the number 1 rule is that there are no rules when it comes to makeup! One of the best aspects of beauty is that you get to be the creator of your own look. Shea Coulee is a great example of this! Coulee is not afraid to get wild and break the norm of drag looks. Never be afraid to experiment and be yourself! The world will thank you for it as it gives them permission to do the same!
