Image
By Malcolm Owen Thursday, August 15, 2019, 08:54 am PT (11:54 am ET) Prominent YouTube personality iJustine is moving into education, partnering with Ripple Training to produce a course on how to use Final Cut Pro X, one that could help inspire the next generation of content creators to produce their own videos for the streaming service.

YouTube’s new AR feature lets you virtually try on makeup while watching videos – TechCrunch

Image
Earlier this summer, YouTube announced its plans for a new AR feature for virtual makeup try-on that works directly in the YouTube app. Today, the first official campaign to use the “ Beauty Try-On” feature has now launched , allowing viewers to try on and shop lipsticks from MAC Cosmetics from YouTube creator Roxette Arisa’s makeup tutorial video. Makeup tutorials are hugely popular on YouTube, so an integration where you can try on the suggested looks yourself makes a ton of sense. While a lipstick try-on feature isn’t exactly groundbreaking — plenty of social media apps offer a similar filter these days — it could lead to more complex AR makeup integrations further down the road. The new AR feature only works when you’re watching the video from a mobile device, and the YouTube app is updated to the latest version. Then, when watching the video, you’ll see a button that says “try it on” which will launch the camera in a split-screen view. The video will continue to pl...

The Best Dewy Makeup Products – Dewy Makeup Tutorial – MarieClaire.com

JASON HETHERINGTON Who has time to put in all the effort it takes to get skin so perfect it looks like glass? The poreless, luminous complexion that took over the Interwebs a few years ago is old news. The new thinking: Fake it til you make it with glass makeup . These lip, cheek, and face products have a reflective finish that’s chicer than the glittery glosses and highlighters of yore. Plus, the shine they deliver will detract from any complexion imperfections (if you consider them imperfections, that is). Strategic, no? Gloss Boss Matte had its moment and, let’s be honest, it wasn’t super flattering. “Those flat lip colors settle into the little lines and look all crackly,” says New York City–based makeup artist Nam Vo. “I’d rather lips look like juicy candy.” Click through for our favorite products to get the look. 1 of 13 Unreal High Shine Volumizing Lip Gloss Hourglass sephora.com ...

Pokémon Masters Reaches 5 Million Pre-Registrations – Android Headlines

Image
Pokémon Masters is the newest Pokémon game coming to mobile devices and it’s already reached an astounding 5 million pre-registrations. The game, which is already available in beta form in a few countries, will be getting a global release sometime before the end of the Summer. Also worth noting is that the pre-registrations are across both Android and iOS devices worldwide, not just one platform or region. That being said, 5 million pre-registrations is no small accomplishment. The game can already be played by gamers in Singapore, and Canada. Which means most or all pre-registration users are those who have yet to play the game. You can however easily get around the region-locking of the beta by using a VPN while you play, which is a simple enough process. Pokémon Masters is being developed by DeNA in cooperation with The Pokémon Company. It will feature the telltale battling combat that has come to be known from almost all Pokémon games on any platform. To mix things up, th...

US court dismisses Ubisoft patent infringement case against music tutorial service Yousician – PC Games Insider

Image
A US district judge has dismissed a lawsuit filed by Ubisoft against music tutorial service Yousician. The French publishing giant said that the Finland-based education platform was infringing on IP relating to its Rocksmith game-slash-guitar-tutorial-software, namely US patent 9,839,852 for ‘Interactive Guitar Game’. This was filed in August 2015 and ultimately granted in December 2017.  The United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina’s Western Division dismissed the case with prejudice on Friday, August 9th, meaning that Ubisoft is restricted from filing a lawsuit on the same claim. Ubisoft filed the lawsuit in August 2018, alleging that Yousician infringed upon its Rocksmith intellectual property by having users learn an instrument via software. The Finnish firm filed a motion to dismiss the following November. In the dismissal verdict, United States District Judge Louise. W Flanagan wrote that Ubisoft’s allegedly infringed patent was “an abstract i...

Khloe Kardashian Said She Had The Worst Hangover After Her Drunk Make-Up Video With Kylie – Delish.com

Image
It’s been almost week since Khloe Kardashian and Kylie Jenner filmed that drunk “Get Ready With Me” tutorial video where they took 18 “shots” of tequila (it was more like sips, but whatever!). The video went viral and featured some hilarious moments from the sisters, along with some cameos from their famous family members who weren’t having any of their drunk shenanigans. But a lot of video was new information to Khloe…because she apparently doesn’t remember about half of it. When fans asked her how it was to film for Kylie’s YouTube channel, KoKo simply responded “Hahaha I don’t remember half way through soooooooo lol.” Though the Kardashian-Jenners have basically all the money in the world—and Khloe reminded us about Kylie’s billionaire status often in the video—that apparently doesn’t exempt them from hangovers. Khloe responded to another fan that, surprise surprise, she didn’t feel super awesome after taking all those sips straight from a bottle of tequila. She also share...

Pictures Of Jackie Aina’s Engagement Ring Show Just How Unique (And MASSIVE) It Is – Bustle

Image
If beloved beauty influencer Jackie Aina ever experiences a power outage while filming one of her signature makeup tutorials, her epic engagement ring can light the way. Jackie Aina’s engagement ring is absolutely massive and is one of the most statement pieces of jewelry you will see all day, all week, and possibly all year. Aina, who recently collaborated with Anastasia Beverly Hills on an eyeshadow palette that was designed to work with dark skin tones, is now engaged to her longtime boyfriend Denis Asamoah. The adorable duo was on vacation in Greece and celebrating her birthday when Asamoah popped the question. He documented the super romantic proposal — leading her up the steps while blindfolded, surrounding her with roses petals, candles, and more — on his personal Instagram. The whole scenario is enough to make you swoon. But that ring, though. It’s huge and it takes up most of her finger. It’s certainly unforgettable. As PEOPLE reports, Aina’s engagement ring is a marqu...

The ‘Little Women’ trailer is a tutorial in timeless fashion – Mic

Image
Laura Dern! Meryl Streep! Saoirse Ronan! Timotheé Chalamet! The trailer for “Little Women ” just dropped and with it, two-and-a-half minutes of incredible, frilled, collar-centric outfits to draw inspiration from. The original Little Women is set in the tail end of the 19th Century, when women were required to wear long, layered dresses and every man dressed like Johnny Depp at red carpet premieres . It’s a time period before clothing was really functional, so the only point must have been style, right? Well, that’s the premise we’re working with here, because we’re ranking all of the outfits from our first look at Greta Gerwig’s film, which will be released this Christmas. Sony Pictures Entertainment on YouTube Breaking down the trailer frame by glorious frame we’ve determined which outfits would best work today, and which outfits definitely wouldn’t. Below, some style tips to steal from our favorite little women. 1. The Little Women in winter wear! We are first introduc...

Unpacking the darker side of beauty tutorials – Dazed

Image
Text Clementine Prendergast Are beauty tutorials liberating in their lifting the lid on the time, money and work that goes into creating a look or are they just another way of reinforcing culturally sanctioned ideals? Clementine Prendergast examines In his famous work, The Art of Love, the ancient Roman poet Ovid issues a stark warning to women about how they should go about applying their make-up. “With wax you know how to whiten your skin, and with carmine to give yourself the rosy hue which Nature has denied you […] But on no account let your lover find you with a lot of ‘aids to beauty’ boxes about you. The art that adorns you should be unsuspected.[…] Why should I know what it is that makes your skin so white? Keep your door shut, and don’t let me see the work before it’s finished.”  Fast forward two thousand years to an internet age of ‘radical transparency’ where privacy is scarce and openly sharing every second of our lives is the norm, and it appears as ...

Peppa Pig makeup tutorial is a new breed of nightmare – Mashable

Image
By Chloe Bryan 2019-08-14 14:26:35 UTC Peppa, what are you doing on this woman’s face? In case your nightmares have gotten a little boring lately, artist and YouTuber Jody Steel has created a truly horrifying makeup tutorial in which she transforms her face and neck into Peppa Pig’s entire body. After she’s done painting, she puts on a thick black headband and turns out the lights, so that Peppa’s haunted figure appears to float midair.  Steel’s YouTube channel is full of similarly disturbing projects, from SpongeBob to Detective Pikachu . To be clear, they are so disturbing because she’s incredibly good at what she does — so keep her videos in mind if you want to get wild at Halloween this year.

Idaho Couple Offers Tutorial On Baking Dogs (Opinion) – News Radio 1310 KLIX

Image
Why would you roast animals you claim to love?  I see this nearly every time I go shopping.  One day I saw dogs trapped in side-by-side cars.  At one shop a few weeks ago I saw a fellow pushing carts back into the store and asked him if an announcement could be made.  “The windows are cracked,” was his reply. Here’s an experiment.  Stop your car and crack the windows.  See how long it takes to become uncomfortable.  And you can perspire.  A dog can’t.  It also can’t lose the fur coat.  He chose instead to shout at me for catching him while he was engaged in animal cruelty. At one grocery store many years ago a woman told me the policy was they don’t call out the animal torturers.  The fear is the shopper will be angry and won’t ever come back and buy more products.  So the dogs suffer. Idaho State Legislators have turned blind eyes.  Maybe they participate in the ritual. Yesterday, I went to a store and when I walked in shouted someone with a Ford Explorer was cooking a d...

Day vs Night: Full Length Behind the Scenes Photography Tutorial – SLR Lounge

We have another creative technique to add to your bag of tricks.  In this video, we’ll show you from start to finish how we took an ordinary scene and turned it into to go from day to night in one single exposure, in-camera. Click to Subscribe! We want to thank Profoto for sponsoring this video and making it possible to create these incredible pieces of free education for photographers worldwide. Before we jump into this tutorial, I want to mention the source of inspiration for this shot. Years prior, I saw this photograph on Sam Hurd’s Instagram , and later found out he even taught this technique on his Patreon . What’s funny to me is how his image stuck with me for years. One day in downtown Los Angeles while filming for  Lighting 3  I came to a scene where I thought, “man, this would be a perfect spot to split the scene into day vs night.” At that moment, I realized an image I’d seen Sam capture a long while back was still in my mind. At the end of this article/video, I’l...
