One of the (many) things I love about my school is that our instructors encourage us to watch awards shows like the Met Gala. [I'm majoring in Fashion Design, btw, so that's why.] While I'm definitely inspired by the outfits, I also really like the makeup! Taylor Hill had a very unique look during this year's ceremony that really caught my eye. Her eye makeup was almost a maroon or rusty reddish-brown color that really made her eyes pop. I loved it so much that I recreated it for myself! Here's my Taylor Hill 2017 Met Gala makeup tutorial.
If you didn't catch her look, here are a few pics so you can see how beautiful she looked:

To keep my look similar to Taylor's, I opted for a fairly neutral lip. I also outlined a little outside of my natural lip line to mimic her full, pouty lips. I kept my hair straight, too. Any type of updo would probably be too much when the eyes are already this bold!
TIP: Here's how to select the perfect straightening iron and here are my best hair straightening tips.

What do you think of the look? Is it something you'd try for yourself? I think it's perfect for a summer night out — dramatic, but not too over-the-top.
