Step 4: Take a bronze shadow and apply it to your crease, starting from the inner corner and working outwards. When you get to the outer corner, extend the shadow slightly beyond the crease. Take either a shimmery black or deep brown color and make a sideways "V" shape on the outer corner of your eye, with one leg touching where your upper and lower lash line meet and the other leg touching the middle of your crease. Blend the color halfway onto your lid.

Be So Dramatic
Step 5: Dip a liner brush into a gel liner, like Tarte emphasEYES Amazonian Clay Waterproof Liner Pot, $24. Starting from the inner corner, line your top lash line. Extend the liner up and out (to meet with the point of the "v" you created in the last step). Connect the point with the middle of your lash line, and then fill in the triangle shape. Repeat on the other eye.

Get Glam
Step 6: Apply a glam set of false lashes, like MAC 2 Lash, $19, then re-apply liner so that they blend in with your makeup.

Try a Little Smokiness
Step 7: Use a black pencil, like EM Michelle Phan Waterliner, $20, to line your lower lashes at the waterline, then smudge the same bronze shadow from the middle of your bottom lash to the outer corner. Take the shimmery black shadow and smudge it on the outer quarter of your lash line.

Luminous Skin
Step 8: Sweep bronzer, like Too Face Snow Bunny Bronzer, $30, across your cheekbones and temples. Then apply a highlighter (one comes with the Snow Bunny bronzer palette) onto your cheekbones, under your brows, and down your nose.
Beyoncé has been my idol since I could hand a $10 bill to the clerk in exchange for a Destiny's Child single at The Warehouse (look it up, it was soo a thing. Which is why I've been Foxy Cleopatra and Deena from "Dreamgirls" for at least three Halloweens in a row. And I'm not alone on this. She has a tendency to be the inspiration of thousands of viral Halloween re-creations worldwide (Single Ladies dance craze, anyone?). So this year I got together with the Total Beauty team to take the Beyoncé Halloween metamorphosis even further.
