A Twinship Nod to Mod

We are mod about you!

It’s Mod Monday at the twin-ship!

We’ve always admired the mod subculture — the music, art, fashion, and of course the signature mod 60’s makeup.  Here is our attempt to recreate mod at home.

After 2 failed attempts, we finally got the eyeliner/false lashes right! For all our twinship bombshells out there who want to create the mod-doll-eyes — check out our step-by-step guide below.

Step 1: Cover your entire eyelid with white eyeshadow.

Step 2: Use your white eyeliner to color inner waterline.

Step 3: Use black eyeliner to line the crease of your eyelid.

Step 4: Use liquid eyeliner to line top of your upper and lower lash line.

Step 5: Using your liquid eyeliner — draw lower lashes.

Step 6: Apply thick false lashes or you can always apply a ton of mascara on your natural lashes.

Step 7: Finish your look with a ton of fun attitude and pale lipstick!

xoxo,

  1. You girls are on fire! It’s great to see you both trying such cool concepts! Do you have any color out takes on your instagram? Dying to see what the color looks like!!

  2. So Bold. So Graphic. So Then. So Now. Looking back, yet moving forward. You’ve really outdone yourselves #twinship. #LivingDolls – love the look of these photos – the new Avedon? xoxo
