Yes it doesn't look that much like the actual painting, but they were supposed to do a Mona Lisa *inspired* look

What is the opposite of inspiration?

Exactly that is what I was thinking about 🤪🤪

[@justyonormalfangirl1138]

Belinda Amador they title it the same way with the other videos like the scorpio zodiac sign one. In that video, it was also based on their inspiration of scorpio and not actually trying to make the model look like a scorpio

[@nikkiverhage9613]

But can we talk about how pretty the model is

[@Poopydoopysxoopy]

John's banana nah

Maybe there was smth entertaining in front of her 'cause for example I can sit like for all day watching fun videos when have time. If serious, she looks like a model, so it can be an usual thing: photoshooting with hours of preparation and all else in this way.

[@zamallama469]

Well, it’s like a face massage because someone is stroking your face for free

[@thelorelei2807]

Purple Nothing only 1 hour. They were given a certain amount of time.

[@ioncekilledamanwithmyshoe]

Purple Nothing that’s what these type of models are supposed to do. They get paid for that pretty much.

[@noellaoreilly4652]

The Lorelei they did it 3 times

[@moronicus]

The video title was misleading for first time watchers. But if you have watched this series, you'd know that the goal is for three artists to do different looks based on the same theme, which they did.

[@ioncekilledamanwithmyshoe]

moronicus the title may be misleading, but if you just look at the thumbnail you would understand what they mean.

[@Hi-ul2gc]

I once killed A man with my shoe that is a wonderful username

[@cattjohnson1114]

I wish the blonde lady used a more neutral pallette I loved the concept but the shocking pink seemed a bit off to me compared to her concept sketch

Catt Johnson it’s more inspired by andy warhol to me. the bright pink doesn’t make sense at all imo

[@ohifonlyx33]

If she had used olives and yellow it would have been the best.

[@irmalair1]

totally agree

[@עמיתביילין]

U guys they were supposed to make a look inspired by the mona lisa. I think they did a great job

yes amit.

[@sensen4161]

Well, it's based on inspiration.

[@hannasetiawan160]

Psssstt, its a clickbait

[@poppylarkin5050]

Well, if you watch some of the other videos in this series, they never actually recreate the picture, it’s more to see the contrast between different artists. It’s a inspiration picture, not supposed to be recreated. Not trying to be rude, just letting you know!

[@hamartiarobins8268]

@@poppylarkin5050 yeah but what really annoys me is some just say oh im inspired by paint which yeah an be an aspect but i feel it should be more the essence of it rather than the medium also in this video that girl was using bright pink which in no way is mona lisas colour pallette

[@liisasilberblatt4773]

Well the guy surely understands his handiwork, but I feel that the girls put way more effort in it. His evening makeup looks pretty and he could enlighten the model's already beautiful features even more, but the girls were definitely more creative and courageous in showing actual "Art".

[@anoosha.u7511]

That's very true but honeslty the most similar colours were captured by his look. The second look, I don't even know why there was violet and bright pink on the model. Clearly some were more artistic than others, doesn't mean they're better or worse. Art just can't be judged...

[@kakaphd3563]

He's a celebrity makeup artist, his style most likely be something you can wear outside without embarasssment.

[@sevgi6026]

No, the guy didnt do very well..

[@triasic4457]

@@sevgi6026 he did do well. The concept of Triple Take is for makeup artists with very different perspectives and skills to tackle the same challenge. What he did was his art and we shouldn't judge it as inferior to the other 2's makeups just because it more of smth that you could see on a red carpet.

[@lesterbunny2112]

@@triasic4457 Agreed.

[@iseverynicewordicanthinkof5919]

i'm crying it's impossible to choose one. really can't get over how innocent Aurora's eyes and lips looked in the blonde lady's make-up. then there's royal Egyptian pallate on her eyes in the guy's make-up and the brunette lady's contouring was ethereal the golden nose tip is gorgeous!

[@asmafhanifah]

I love how Colby pointed out the purpose of this series in the end of video, he wants people to take a look at how every artist did a good job to take on the challenge with their own styles

[@dlgksidiffnr4671]

I agree that the girls put for effort and creativity, but I think the guy's simplistic pantone palate was the best. I just think the beauty of the painting is that it's simple and natural.

[@ellyobannon3929]

dlgksidiffnr i agree 100000% with this

[@CameronPop4]

I’d love to see a triple take with male models as well- it’d be awesome to see some experimental makeup looks on guys.

[@ailemasvega]

Yesss! Hadn't even thought of that, it would be really cool.

[@jellocat4100]

Or a model with acne

[@mayajanaeee]

and on models with darker skin tones

[@mattsteer5003]

The brunette woman’s one looks phenomenal. I am so impressed!

[@sonamsahu7963]

*You all have an hour to finish the look.* Brunette makeup artist: I am not going to moisturize and blend perfectly. Male makeup artist: I am going to use 55 mins on eyes!

[@ioncekilledamanwithmyshoe]

Sonam Sahu for his type of makeup, the eyes are what are most focused on.

[@archadesprime9343]

“More neutrals” *paints entire face with bright colors”

[@biancapanico1763]

Archades ‘’Apparently a last name is required’ neutral colors are colors that aren’t cool or warm, so a neutral palette is a palette that is, well, neither cool or warm. Sorry for my English.

[@biancapanico1763]

BeepBop Boop I’m not so sure about that, I guess I’ll have to investigate deeper about the subject, but I think that, for example, pastel colors can be neutral too

[@artsy_skies_]

In my opinion the guy did the best. The Mona Lisa isn’t too out there and crazy and I think that subtle makeup resembles her beauty.

[@sevgi6026]

It was sepose to be a mona lisa inspired look!

It's about the whole painting, not just the subject

the emotion in the second picture is what makes it shine and imo be the best one, not necessarily the makeup but idk just the raw emotion ig

That’s why the profession is called makeup ARTIST 👩‍🎨 Love all three different looks and their thoughts behind it 💯💕

[@narehakobyan5701]

I guess there is a room to specify the task: to copy or recreate the painting. If it is the first, then the 1st artist did great, if the second, I loved the 3rd artist. My opinion.

[@mei-jw4hy]

They were supposed to make an inspired look, not a copy. «We challanged 3 makeup artists with totally different styles to create an art-inspired look using the same model.»

acco are you telling me that the Male copied the mona lisa - hunny his is also inspired

Liv Estrella What, no? How did you come to that conclusion

Aurora: has the perfect eyebrows Make up artists: wait, that's illegal

[@erikacroft245]

[@jac8313]

I always find it interesting how different people see or interpret art. There is no one way to enjoy art, and there artists definitely show that.

[@donnawoodford6641]

If this was a contest, I would have to choose the first, natural look the guy did. However, I think if he covered the brows, the look would be closer to the painting which I actually saw in person years ago in Paris.

What if her face itches Then.

[@rena.e]

The way the blonde makeup artist was massaging the model’s skin made me super calm

[@anahitamunagekar5423]

I really want a sequel to this, but they use the Mona Lisa done by DaVinci’s student, just because it’s a little more well kept, so the colors are brighter, you can see that Mona Lisa did in fact have eyebrows, etc. I want to see what would change
