From its detail to the nostalgia it evokes, everything about this Golden Girls [3] lip art is perfect. But makeup artist Ryan Kelly (who also put together this vivid Bird Box lip art) [4] revealed that the illustration was created in the most painstaking way way.

"There's no easy way out," she said in the caption of her photo. "I found a reference photo that I liked and drew it out with some adjustments so that the proportions would work for my lips (i.e., no heads/major details between my top and bottom lip, and rounding it out in places), then made the drawing into a stencil and transferred it to my lips."

Sure, the process was time-consuming, but as Blanche once said, "Better late than pregnant."
