Shadowing Practice: Lady Gaga’s Favorite Makeup Hacks - Learn English Speaking with Video

Ready?

Everybody feel good?

Yep.

Great.

Hi, everybody.

This is Lady Gaga, and I'm so excited for you to get ready with me.

We are going to do a full face of House Labs today.

We're going to get started with our Triclone Skin Tech Concealer in shade 11, light neutral.

I'm going to start under the eyes, and then I'm going to take the tip of the applicator, and I'm just going to kind of put it wherever I see redness on the face.

And then I go into areas that I want to brighten even more.

Done.

Now I take our brush for concealer.

It's a beautiful, beautiful brush that is shaped like a finger.

This concealer has biotech caffeine in it, which de-puffs under the eyes.

Also, the fermented arnica that's in the concealer is helping reduce my redness while I wear it, which is one of my favorite things about it.

So now I'm just going to take my fingers and lightly press that in.

So you see I've just brightened up my whole face.

And if you want to, you can just go more natural like that.

But today, I want to do a full face of House Labs.

So I'm going to be using now our Triclone Skin Tech Foundation in shade 110.

And I want you to see just how amazing the payoff is on the skin.

And it just blends in beautifully with that concealer because they have very similar skincare products in them.

Do you see now how we're getting that medium coverage? and this is buildable, so you can layer it more and more.

I think that looks so pretty.

I love it so much.

Now, sometimes I use the rest on the brush just to get over my eyes.

Okay, so this is where I am so far, but I'm also going to put some foundation on my body just to even out the face with the chest, because I get red all over,

and so I'm going to take some of our foundation, and I'm just going to use my hands, and I'm just going to rub it in.

It has so many skincare ingredients in it that it's really easy to use.

It sets just like a regular foundation, but better.

Okay, so now I'm going to add some warmth back in the face, and I'm going to use our Power Sculpt Velvet Bronzer.

This is shade Light Level 4.

And I like to start actually by just tapping my brush here.

I give it a little blow.

And then I start sort of on the outside and work almost in a straight line in, which I know is not how everybody does it,

but I like to start my contour sort of towards the nose, and then I bring it down.

What's so nice about this powder is it doesn't even go on like a powder.

It's extremely smooth and extremely easy to blend.

I'm doing this side of my face first.

I'm going to sculpt underneath the chin, the jawline, blend in a little bit more here just so you can see the difference.

This bronzer is velvety.

It is extremely smooth.

It's a gel powder, and it's beautiful to wear.

Then I just go in at the end, and I just go ham.

I don't have a really elegant way of telling you how I do this part.

Just do what you feel.

The most important thing when you're doing your makeup is that you feel good about you from the inside out.

Sometimes I'll do my makeup and it's really just for me.

So now I'm actually going to go in with some blush, but I'm going to make our blush today using some high power pigment paint.

This is shade Blush Matte and I'm going to do something fun that I love to do, which which is I'm going to use our shade 000 Fair Neutral.

It's a white foundation, and I'm going to mix just one pump on my hand with this blush matte paint.

Before I apply it, I'm going to take a little bit of the white on my finger by itself.

And I'm actually going to put it on the highest points

on my face just to add a glow without using any pearl.

This is a great way to highlight the face for a really dewy look.

Look at that.

So now I'm gonna take my finger and I'm just gonna make our blush on my hand.

This is packed with plant squalane, which is so good for your face.

I'm just gonna put it here on the apples of my cheeks, as well as the high point of my cheekbone.

Really, you should just put your blush where you like your blush.

Everybody likes their blush in different places.

And you see how now there's sort of a nice blending that's going on with both the bronzer

and the blush sort of becomes this ombre effect that's extremely creamy and glowy and good for you.

For now, that's enough blush for me.

I'm going to go in though with our Bio Radiant Gel Highlighter.

This is in shade Peach Quartz.

So I'm gonna apply the Bio Radiant Gel Highlighter now with my fingers.

I'm just gonna go on the cheekbone.

You see how beautiful that glow is?

Not patchy, not a lot of glitter.

You can go down the nose if you want.

I have a lot of real estate to put this on, on my nose.

I like to put a little in the height of my brow bone, sort of like an eye shadow, a little here, and a little, of course, on your Cupid's bow.

Now I'm gonna take Rose Quartz and use it a little bit like a blush.

And just to tie the look together, I'm going to take this beautiful peach quartz, and I'm going to put it back on my finger,

and I'm going to apply it to my collarbone and my neck.

And then my favorite.

I actually like to do my neck, chest, and arm makeup while I do my regular makeup.

So now I'm going to start the eyes, and I'm going to use our amazing high power pigment paint again in beige matte.

So I'm going to put some on my hand

and take a brush like this and just smooth it over the eyes as a primer.

And I like a little bit more grip for the eyeshadow, which this is going to give me.

Now I'm going to take some of my bronzer with that same brush, and I'm just going to carve out my crease.

You can do as much or as little of this as you want.

I honestly always do my makeup how I feel in the moment.

Sometimes when I put pressure on myself to do makeup in a particular way, I can end up not being happy with it when it's done.

So I just go with how I feel and I finish when I feel ready.

I'm going to pull that out just a little bit.

See, just to create that line right there.

And it just lengthens out the eyes.

Okay, now I want to keep amplifying this look a little bit more.

So I'm going to be using this pigment paint in Cocoa Matte and also Rose Gold Shimmer.

I'm going to start with Cocoa Matte.

And I'm just going to use a little bit on my hand.

This teeny tiniest little bit.

I'm going to take the same brush.

I'm just going to blend it into my crease.

And sometimes, just to give it some really good warmth and playtime, I just use my finger to blend it out quickly.

And I just start to cut the crease a little bit on the side.

100

And it's okay to mess up.

101

You can always fix it.

102

Now, I'm going to use another one of our gel powder highlighters in Chocolate Opal.

103

And I'm going to use this fluffy brush and just work it in to that same sort of creased area, just to give it some extra shine.

104

and you'll see how I'm gonna pump up the volume next.

105

I'm now gonna take our rose shimmer, just put a little bit on the hand, put some on your finger, and pop it in the center of the lid.

106

Love it!

107

I love makeup.

108

All right, I'm going to take our concealer again to do something else that our concealer does, which is clean up.

109

So I'm going to drag it just under the eye in the shape that I want the shadow to be, and that's super easy to do.

110

Okay, I'm gonna have some of my tea, because I have to stay hydrated during this marathon.

111

Okay, now I'm going to sharpen up the eye using our Optic Intensity Eco Liner in Deep Cocoa Matte, and I'm going to apply it to my lash line.

112

I'm gonna extend it along the line that I just cleaned up, flip it over where there's a brush, and just blend away.

113

The eyeliner, I'm not gonna blend too much.

114

It's very creamy, so I don't really need to.

115

And also, I want it to have a strong line.

116

Blend, blend, blend.

117

Cleaning up.

118

Clean up your mess.

119

And then I'm gonna go inside the eye in the waterline.

120

And I always make a funny face when I do this.

121

Then I'm gonna create a little bit of a point, Like a little teardrop in the center of where my eye shape meets here.

122

Blend it out carefully so that you can still keep the sharpness of the shape.

123

So I just put on some mascara off camera to see where my look is.

124

And I think I just love it this way.

125

I think it's beautiful.

126

Before I put on my lipstick, though, I'm going to use our setting powder.

127

And this powder is amazing.

128

Don't sleep on her.

129

This is such a nice finish to any look.

130

Now to finish off my look, I'm going to start by using our eyeliner as a lip liner in shade Deep Cocoa Matte.

131

I like to use this as a lip liner because it's

132

so creamy and it comes with a little brush on the other side.

133

It's also long wear, so no, it's definitely not moving.

134

It's just great for your purse, you know what I mean?

135

Okay, I could leave it like that, but I'm not.

136

Instead, we're going to use our Atomic Shake Lip Lacquer in Sepia.

137

I love this color so much.

138

It's perfect for fall.

139

And I'm just gonna apply it to the lip in an even coat.

140

It's the Atomic Jake dance.

141

Okay.

142

And we're in zero transfer now.

143

So, all done.

144

Let me show you my final look.

145

I hope you like my final look.

146

Thank you so much for getting ready with me.

147

I love you all so much.

148

And I have to give a ton of credit to all the influencers all over these platforms.

149

You guys do this all day long, three times a day, four times a day.

150

You're amazing at it.

151

And I thank you so much for supporting me while I do it.

152

And now for the ultimate test of

153

when you are wearing our Atomic Shake lip lacquer for a night out on the town this fall or winter.

154

Won't even get on your glass.

155

Cheers to beauty.

156

All right, see ya.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
