Make Up Look: Nicole Scherzinger

Nicole Scherzinger always looks so glamorous! Every week on X Factor I’m always envious of how perfect her make up is. This look in particular was one she wore on X Factor, can’t remember what week but I remember knowing I wanted to try it myself. I thought it was going to be a struggle with the liner but it was actually very easy!
