+MADEbySOUL She could pull it off, but would have to adjust for the fact that her natural hair is thinner and straighter than the wig so it would not be an exact translation. She could fix that with extensions/growing her hair out/hair volumizing products and tricks (that are not too damaging), and obviously the makeup to go along with it, but that is a decent amount of required maintenance.
What I appreciate about Lisa and her tutorials is that she captures the essence of the look, without trying to make the model look like the inspiration's copy cat, if that makes sense. This model, although pretty, does not look like Liz Taylor, yet when the whole makeup is done, even before the wig, I can see Liz Taylor emerging: the brows, the shape of the mouth, the winged-yet-wide open eyes. Had the brow been a bit thinner or rounder, or more angular, or the eyes a bit more elongated, too "flicked," it won't resemble Liz anymore. Absolutely brilliant!! Really enjoyed watching this.
+Le Genou de Claire Yes, it's "Liz Taylor inspired" rather than just a straight-up costumey look. She still looks like herself, but if asked which movie star she most resembles you'd say Liz Taylor.
K...I got a bit effy when she was thickening those brows more and more....and once that wig was on...omg I was blown away. Such blasphemy for me to ever doubt Lisa! Just amazing...not only did she go from blonde to brunette...she went from a modern gal to a whole new era altogether.
+RED REBEL hahahahaha about the blasphemy, I was thinking the same thing, uh oh Lisa this looks rather odd, and then kapow, she shut us all up with her wizardry!
I'm a guy with no interest in wearing or applying makeup to someone else but, as others have said, watching a Lisa Eldridge video is so calming and at the same time I very much enjoy seeing someone at work who is so professional, is such an artist and also an excellent teacher, someone I admire and respect for excellence in her craft. Too it's fun to watch someone's appearance change and be enhanced.---I used to have a small mole on my cheek but was shaving a little too fast one day and sliced it right off.---I was once in a stage play and after being cast was told that my medium blond hair needed to be black. After a performance a lady came up to me and instead of saying "Hey, great job", I was told "You look so much better with black hair, you should keep it that way"! A short time later that lady changed her hair from gray to black!
The eyebrows looked phenomenal! all those youtubers trying to do these bold, thick brows and totally failing but you made it look so effortless. I could swear it was like looking at an artist painting on his camva. Magic. Thank you Lisa
my brows are a lot like Elizabeth Taylor's eyebrows. not quite as dark but the same shape naturally and I remember the first time I saw a photo of her as a little girl and being so excited that when everyone around me had those pencil thin 90s brows this woman who was regarded as a true iconic beauty had brows like mine! beautiful look here, you captured her essence wonderfully!
+Lisa Eldridge I'm not saying that you do it, but I wonder why so many makeup artists never blend the light shade in the inner corner of the eye? I've seen sooooo many videos here on YT where they use 5 min to blend everything else but they never blend the inner corner of the eye. Doesn't it look better if EVERYTHING is blended well..?
I am so glad you are doing this Elizabeth Taylor look! I adore her!!!! She was a magnificent beauty that comes only once in a lifetime. Such a strong survivor. People should really read about her as much as possible. She is a true inspiration and icon. A beautiful woman beyond words inside and outside.
Wow! Lisa, this tutorial kind of proves that you are the best. Just look at that transformation while still making the makeup look cool. I felt bad when you told your about not doing Elizabeth Taylor's makeup. That haunt me forever. Haha!
This is an amazing transformation - you absolutely nailed it. I like how you chose her look for the 1950s. I think Elizabeth Taylor looked her best during her A Place In The Sun/Cat On A Hot Tin Roof years. And what a beautiful model!
Elizabeth Taylor was my grandma's absolute favorite, inspiring her make up, and just her overall fashion sense. I remember watching an old Egyptian themed movie with Elizabeth Taylor in it and just the overall awe in my grandma's face made me realize where her sense in make up came from. From that moment I started noticing all these jewelry pieces and perfume sets that my grandma had that were Elizabeth Taylor's. Elizabeth Taylor has been the ultimate beauty icon for me since then. 💚
Oh wow this is what I'd call a makeup transformation, and it looks so natural! I absolutely love it, and I think she really resembled Elizabeth Taylor at the end. Great job Lisa, you have inspired and taught me so much about makeup and beauty - Thank you! xx
A another great tutorial, Lisa. I love Elizabeth Taylor, she was a beautiful woman inside and out. It's a shame her beauty on outside is more known than her beauty of kindness and generosity. I hope to see more Old Hollywood looks in the future!
Such an incredible transformation! Maybe even one of my favourites from all the looks you re-created. Now I'd be even more intrigued to see you do a take on Edie Sedgwick's make-up, that'd absolutely make my day
It is amazing how she looks like she is coming directly from the 50's. If we only look the end we can't imagine there was such a transformation. And it "seems" simple. My wish for X-mas?? Having my party makeup done by you Lisa :-) If only Santa did exist :-( :-(
Such a cool idea to use a model that looks like a complete contrast to Elizabeth Taylor and then transform her to look nearly the same. You're already legendary, Lisa!
You never cease to amaze me! I've been watching your makeup tutorials on Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, and Marie Antoinette, etc. on loop because I was so mesmerized by your exceptional talent as a makeup artist. Now you're doing a tutorial on Elizabeth Taylor's look and you TOTALLY nailed it! I hope you can do makeup tutorials of how to achieve the look of other icons such as Madonna, Twiggy, etc.
Ahhhhhhh this is perfection :O As I've already once stated on your video, I fully intend to have you do my makeup for my wedding, even though that would be in 10 years minimum, and it would cost me more than my wedding dress...But who cares, it's Lisa Eldrige,so....
Lisa, she looks amazing. I was always in awe of Liz Taylor's gorgeous complexion, and the incredible contrast of her dark hair, fair skin and stunning eyes. You have captured her look perfectly. Thanks!
...I am absolutely blown away, this may be my favorite makeup tutorial I have ever seen! Lisa, you gave Liz Taylor every bit of dignity here, beautifully well done!
VERY Liz!!! Great look!!! Loving this!!! Stunning!! Gosh Lisa your knowledge is so fun! Love your Marilyn video also!!! You are certainly a student that loves who she studies! So appreciated your expertise and finesse!!!‼️🙋❤️😘
This was amazing Lisa! I always look forward to your videos because you are informative about the history and you aren't overbearing or too talkative even though you are a complete expert on makeup! Your tutorials are always done so fabulously and the end results are looks that one could actually wear everyday without looking like they're playing dress up. In the future, you should attempt Twiggy, the model. She has such an interesting 60s look but I'm sure you could give us some great tips on how to perfect her bold eyeliner and lash techniques :)
Wow. Lisa, you are amazing. Truly. I am in awe of your talent. You and Kevyn Aucoin are my favorite makeup artists of all time. Period. Liz missed out ;)
It has been a complete pleasure to watch this! Thank you for not taking the "inspired" looks too lightly. It's amazing how you always take the facts and apply them. Can't wait to read your facepaint book this Christmas 😍
If I was the model's friend I would tell her to dye her hair dark because she is such a knock out with the dark hair contrasting her eyes!
I know right!!! The moment she put the wig on...I was like "damnnnnn"!! The dark hair really compliments her eyes!
Yes! She looks so sultry.
+MADEbySOUL Agreed, as a brunette she is breathtaking!
+MADEbySOUL YES!
+MADEbySOUL She could pull it off, but would have to adjust for the fact that her natural hair is thinner and straighter than the wig so it would not be an exact translation.

By the way, you nailed the brows. Spot on.
+Kim Girard thank you X
+Lisa Eldridge ¡Hola lovely Lisa! If I ever win the lottery I will hire you to do my makeup for a year!!!
Agreed! Incredible
I feel like this transformation is much more intense than the Marilyn tutorial.
Both are incredible
OMG, she looks so classy and elegant when the whole look was complete
She should keep the dark hair, her features really stand out!! Beautiful!!
Only if she puts on black eyebrows and black eyelashes every day, which seems like a lot of trouble. What's wrong with her natural blond look?
Lisa, this is absolutely stunning! I just got my copy of Face Paint and I can't wait to read it! x
Omg what a stunning model and makeup look. The transformation was absolutely incredible!
+Laura Neuzeth You already have this look down!
BooRadleyTube 😄 I always get told that I look like someone from the 1940's or 50's.
K...I got a bit effy when she was thickening those brows more and more....and once that wig was on...omg I was blown away. Such blasphemy for me to ever doubt Lisa! Just amazing...not only did she go from blonde to brunette...she went from a modern gal to a whole new era altogether.
absolutely! just goes to show the true artistry of both her and the wig maker.
+RED REBEL hahahahaha about the blasphemy, I was thinking the same thing, uh oh Lisa this looks rather odd, and then kapow, she shut us all up with her wizardry!
+RED REBEL haha yes makeup is often like that, theres always a 'moment' before it all comes together! X

A short time later that lady changed her hair from gray to black!
She's practically unrecognisable from the first shot to the last. Incredible transformation!
When you put that wig on her my jaw dropped! She truly looks like Liz! Impeccable makeup as always
I'm sure this model feels the same way with you as you felt about Liz Taylor. :)
Agreed. ❤️
Agree !!!!!
I've actually known Laura for years and she loves vintage styles, always wore those things when she was out.
I know I would!
So true
The eyebrows looked phenomenal! all those youtubers trying to do these bold, thick brows and totally failing but you made it look so effortless. I could swear it was like looking at an artist painting on his camva. Magic. Thank you Lisa
the eyebrows were so strong, but then the wig and BAM! it all came together so gorgeous!!!!
Please consider doing a Dorothy Dandridge look. She's a classic beauty as well.
I'd love to see that
my brows are a lot like Elizabeth Taylor's eyebrows. not quite as dark but the same shape naturally and I remember the first time I saw a photo of her as a little girl and being so excited that when everyone around me had those pencil thin 90s brows this woman who was regarded as a true iconic beauty had brows like
mine! beautiful look here, you captured her essence wonderfully!
That model would be a great canvas for a Marilyn Monroe look. 💋
This is the true story of the power of makeup! What a transformation! I love it!
Unbelievably gorgeous!
I'm in aw of you Lisa, you truly are a phenominal artist
+Wafa Just wanted to add, what a lovely model you have
She wears the look beautifully
+Wafa A yes Laura is absolutely beautiful and was perfect for this Liz inspired look X
+Lisa Eldridge I'm not saying that you do it, but I wonder why so many makeup artists never blend the light shade in the inner corner of the eye? I've seen sooooo many videos here on YT where they use 5 min to blend everything else but they never blend the inner corner of the eye. Doesn't it look better if EVERYTHING is blended well..?
AMAZING! wow- I'm gonna be running around Hollywood today with my makeup done just like Elizabeth Taylor today haha I can't help myself- so so good!
I love the depth of the brow- I am going to add a few of those tricks for sure!
+KelseyFarese the brows have that "come hether" look about them
RED REBEL they SO do! Everyone should have that trick up their sleeve...or up their eyebrow arch haha
I have a feeling Im gonna end up lookin like a bushman the next few days but I too am inspired!
RED REBEL haha it's so worth it! I'm gonna look like I've been living in my parents basement for the past 20 years but Glam as hell! hahah
The way you go about putting on makeup always looks so gentle. I love it!
I am so glad you are doing this Elizabeth Taylor look! I adore her!!!! She was a magnificent beauty that comes only once in a lifetime. Such a strong survivor. People should really read about her as much as possible. She is a true inspiration and icon. A beautiful woman beyond words inside and outside.
The brows look way better than I had expected
She looks so incredibly classy and pretty as a brunette! She looks like directly from the 50's. The dark hair suits her so well!
You're so talented 👏🏻
You're incredible at your job. She is a replica of Elizabeth Taylor
this woman is an artist. Period. No doubt about it. She's amazing!
Wow! Lisa, this tutorial kind of proves that you are the best. Just look at that transformation while still making the makeup look cool.
I felt bad when you told your about not doing Elizabeth Taylor's makeup. That haunt me forever. Haha!
I meant "that would haunt me forever!"
+abirsashee haha thanks! Yes it was a big disappointment at the time but at least I eventually got to pay homage to her in my book X
This is an amazing transformation - you absolutely nailed it. I like how you chose her look for the 1950s. I think Elizabeth Taylor looked her best during her A Place In The Sun/Cat On A Hot Tin Roof years. And what a beautiful model!
The transformation is perfection. True artist, Lisa!
Possibly one of the most amazing transformation
😱😱😱 truuuuly unbelievable. What talent! She looked uncanny !
omg that model's skin is goals!! And also the eyebrows are spot on!!
Dark hair suits this model so well!!
Elizabeth Taylor was my grandma's absolute favorite, inspiring her make up, and just her overall fashion sense. I remember watching an old Egyptian themed movie with Elizabeth Taylor in it and just the overall awe in my grandma's face made me realize where her sense in make up came from. From that moment I started noticing all these jewelry pieces and perfume sets that my grandma had that were Elizabeth Taylor's. Elizabeth Taylor has been the ultimate beauty icon for me since then. 💚
I love how when you put on the wig, the whole look just ties in together perfectly! You never fail to blow my mind every time!
I always go back to your old videos. They are very amazing
So lovely to hear 💕
BAMMM!!!
That wig just looked
insanely beautiful on her! Great job Lisa :)
Wow she looks like a different person! The wig really brought it all together.
Oh wow this is what I'd call a makeup transformation, and it looks so natural! I absolutely love it, and I think she really resembled Elizabeth Taylor at the end. Great job Lisa, you have inspired and taught me so much about makeup and beauty - Thank you! xx
She shines in this makeup! What a transformation!
Incredible transformation. I'd never wash my face. This is my favorite style of makeup
at first I thought the brows are bit too strong, but when she put on the wig it's like perfection
A another great tutorial, Lisa. I love Elizabeth Taylor, she was a beautiful woman inside and out. It's a shame her beauty on outside is more known than her beauty of kindness and generosity. I hope to see more Old Hollywood looks in the future!
Just by changing the hair and eyebrow color, one seems like a different person, wow❤
Such an incredible transformation! Maybe even one of my favourites from all the looks you re-created.
Now I'd be even more intrigued to see you do a take on Edie Sedgwick's make-up, that'd absolutely make my day
She looks stunning! She'd be an amazing Marilyn too ❤️
Yes, many people have said the same. I want a tutorial with her as Marilyn and also one as Angelina please🥺
It is amazing how she looks like she is coming directly from the 50's. If we only look the end we can't imagine there was such a transformation. And it "seems" simple. My wish for X-mas?? Having my party makeup done by you Lisa :-) If only Santa did exist :-( :-(
Me too!!!
She looks so amazing with dark hair. It suits her so well!
the brows are unbeliveable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you are gorgeous
She looks so pretty with brown hair!! Just perfect
I think this is my favorite transformation this far...AMAZING!!!!
she makes a better Elizabeth Taylor then Lindsay Lohan did..
when that wig was on it was magic, it all came together! brilliant tutorial Lisa! much love! xx
she looks like a knok out!! that liz taylor look is just incredible loved it!!
The eyebrows are brilliant!
Absolutely Stunning! She looks fantastic with dark hair.
One of your best ever, Lisa. Absolutely amazing and the model was perfect for Liz Taylor - not to mention those fabulous earrings!
Such a cool idea to use a model that looks like a complete contrast to Elizabeth Taylor and then transform her to look nearly the same. You're already legendary, Lisa!
Incredible transformation. Beautifully done.
The best Liz look so far! Very authentic!
I feel like that woman became more elegant in her actions after the makeup too, I would probably talk softer after that.
Dang, the absolute class and elegance of such simple makeup is everything.
You never cease to amaze me! I've been watching your makeup tutorials on Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, and Marie Antoinette, etc. on loop because I was so mesmerized by your exceptional talent as a makeup artist. Now you're doing a tutorial on Elizabeth Taylor's look and you TOTALLY nailed it! I hope you can do makeup tutorials of how to achieve the look of other icons such as Madonna, Twiggy, etc.
She looked so beautiful with just the eye make up and the blonde eyebrows on!
Ahhhhhhh this is perfection :O As I've already once stated on your video, I fully intend to have you do my makeup for my wedding, even though that would be in 10 years minimum, and it would cost me more than my wedding dress...But who cares, it's Lisa Eldrige,so....
It always blows my mind just how transformative makeup can be.
Absolutely stunning.
Lisa, she looks amazing. I was always in awe of Liz Taylor's gorgeous complexion, and the incredible contrast of her dark hair, fair skin and stunning eyes. You have captured her look perfectly. Thanks!
WOW! SHE'S GORGEOUS!
...I am absolutely blown away, this may be my favorite makeup tutorial I have ever seen! Lisa, you gave Liz Taylor every bit of dignity here, beautifully well done!
Amazing look! You're so talented and your model is beautiful!
I love that you are telling us so much, about yourself, about your thoughts on the subject, history, etc.
I was born with double set eyelashes, but you can't see them without make up because they're blonde! quite ironic.
VERY Liz!!! Great look!!! Loving this!!! Stunning!! Gosh Lisa your knowledge is so fun! Love your Marilyn video also!!! You are certainly a student that loves who she studies! So appreciated your expertise and finesse!!!‼️🙋❤️😘
I used to not believe in magic... but that was before I came across Lisa Eldridge. :) x
Lisa, this is incredible. You are a true artist, Liz would have been lucky to have you do her makeup.
This was amazing Lisa! I always look forward to your videos because you are informative about the history and you aren't overbearing or too talkative even though you are a complete expert on makeup! Your tutorials are always done so fabulously and the end results are looks that one could actually wear everyday without looking like they're playing dress up. In the future, you should attempt Twiggy, the model. She has such an interesting 60s look but I'm sure you could give us some great tips on how to perfect her bold eyeliner and lash techniques :)
Just watching the way your hands move on and around a face is quite amazing! This transformation was stunning.
Wow. Gorgeous and you are so right about Liz Taylor. ♥ Elle
Your historical makeup videos are my absolute favorite. This is incredible!
Wow. Lisa, you are amazing. Truly. I am in awe of your talent. You and Kevyn Aucoin are my favorite makeup artists of all time. Period. Liz missed out ;)
Lisa always looks so fresh and awake and beautiful she's truly just beautiful
This look is so perfect it fucking hurts
A true make up artist.... Wow, what a transformation.
Now THAT is a makeover.
Lisa's makeup brushes are actually her magic wands!!!!!
Dear Lisa, would you kindly do a series on makeup looks from the show 'Mad Men'? :) Thank you, and Merry Christmas in advance!
You are an eyebrow magician! It's so fun to watch a whole new eyebrow shape appear and you make it look so easy.
such beautiful eyes!
this look still baffles me!!!! this is such true talent!!! you are the ultimate, lisa!!!! the ultimate!!!!
I really like the pretty make up artist's rings.
Lovely! Liz was such a beauty. Her coloring was just amazing. And a set of violet blue contacts would really be gorgeous to finish your model's look!
So beautiful 👏😻
It has been a complete pleasure to watch this! Thank you for not taking the "inspired" looks too lightly. It's amazing how you always take the facts and apply them. Can't wait to read your facepaint book this Christmas 😍
I would like to call that Black magic......
You are a witch!
This is the BEST MAKEUP TUTORIAL I have ever seen. It's very informative and well worth a watch.
Wow.She looks like a completely different person. I'd never recognise her .
A real authentic makeup artist i will listen to
