Sequin Mermaid

This mermaid look may seem super complicated, but according to Irwin, there’s a secret trick: fishnets. Using whatever complementary color combo your heart desires, do a smoky eye with the lighter color fading into the darker color, and add a dramatic lash. “Take some old fishnet hose, and stretch them over your head. Use the same colors on top of the fishnet on the places on your face where you would contour and give dimension,” Irwin says. “Your application is the same, but you’re using the fishnets to give it the scales.”
