I've never thought of using the setting spray to set my under-eye concealer. I've always lightly powdered. At 54, you better believe I'll be trying this tomorrow morning! Thanks Melissa!!
Mrs M, I so appreciate Your Brutally honest transparency and letting Your viewers see honest beauty, it so makes a difference for me, as to relating to our mature skin issues. Thank You so much for being You ~ And Personally I think our fingers are our best tools at times :) You are much Loved from this ole gal xoxo
I watch a few 'mature' content channels - Hot and Flashy, Pretty Over Fifty, Lisa Monique and a couple more. So GLAD to have found you! Great info and really pro + fun presentation. Thanks!
Thanks for the great tips! My favorite is "do not engage in any laughing" while your concealer is setting! I so appreciate your honesty and willingness to show your real issues. Circles or not, you are lovely! Can't wait to try these tips.
The Maybelline age rewind concealer in neutralizer is pretty good for mature skin. I like it because I don't have use a lot of product to cover my dark circles. Sometimes less makeup is better especially in the summer time. Thank M for this informative tutorial. By the way you look great ♡
Thank you, thank you, thank you! It is so good to have someone closer to my age (62) who is willing to talk about the challenges of maturing skin. I also am grateful for the fact that you tend to lean toward cooler looks. I'm cool toned with brown eyes & I love to see makeup looks for us cool toned gals.
I love how many shades the LA Girl color correctors come in. I have the pale yellow for the troughs under my eyes that cast shadows. The yellow helps to bright that up because I can't use powder under them, too irritating to my eyes. I also have the flat white shade which is a solid/totally opaque white that mixes really well with my concealers that are too dark. It lightens them up beautifully and I'm able to use up those darker shades without wasting them.
I am 47 tomorrow and I really enjoyed yr tutorial and will try all of these and yr setting powder recommendations and concealer. Your personality is as pretty as u are!!
Thanks for sharing 😎😎😎! You look so slim and beautiful 🤩🤩🤩! Hoping you & yours are doing great. I’ve been sweating a lot lately so I’m not putting anything on. Soon I will use the tan wipes so at least I’ll have some color. Have a great weekend 😘😘😘!
I love that you use the least amount of product possible. I don't have dark circles so I only put a little bit of concealer on the inner and outer corner and blend it with my fingers as well. I do have wrinkles though but if I don't powder lightly it will crease like crazy! You are so right that it takes a lot of experimentation to find what works for you! Thanks for another great video!
I dont have bad dark circles, but I do have a lot of crepeyness on my lower and upper lids, due to 35 years of wearing contacts. I also have "power surges" as you like to call them. I also live in the Glorious South! Thanks so much for these tips!!!
Hi Felicia. I've worn contacts for 35 years too! Now my close up vision is gone but I refuse to wear bifocal glasses instead of my contacts. Hope u have a great weekend! ⚘⚘⚘
These hot flashes stink!! They are much worse in the summer. I think what you did in this video will be very beneficial for my mature under eyes. Thanks again Melissa. Love you!
Hi Melissa, I applaud you for being so honest and real. You have a wealth of knowledge and thank you for sharing it with us. You’re beautiful. Much love and happiness, Teresa.
I'm 47 years old and my under eyes are a little dark. I use the It bye bye concealer. A tube of it lasts forever. Thank you for these tips. I will definitely try them. Hope you have a great day.
I don't mind using natural lighting for a tutorial but doing a full face is a bit challenging for me because of my hands & shaking. I'll see what i can come up with. ❌⭕❌⭕
@@MrsMelissaM please I shake also be proud of who you are and you are so confident in your videos and you give me more and more confidence. Thank you so much. Maybe just primer, foundation , bronzer and blush? I dont want to make you feel bad
I just went to Alta yesterday and at the front desk they had to setting sprays of the Ulta brand and one of them has SPF in them and it’s waterproof I tried it yesterday wore it all day and it really kept everything on I’m not sure if you’d be interested in that but I like it so far you are the sweetest lady you and Kimberly I love both of you you have a wonderful day and thank you so much for doing this for all of us we truly truly enjoy it
oh honey I would sleep with a battery fan and a mat that I would freeze when I had my personal summers. I love the way you paired the colors of your lips and cheecks. Sometimes I put on a blush and it clashes with my lips. Very good tips for the under eye area. Thank you sweetie. xo
Checking out some more older content. I do use the peachy corrector and I think I learned it from you. Also use a green one for some rosacea around my nose and mouth. It looks ridiculous when first applied but after foundation it looks good. Lots of good thoughts and prayer for you and family take care.
Finally! Thank u for this! As things have been changing (49) lines are killing me!! This finally wrkd, that and I changed concealer. Props and appreciation🙋🏼♀️
Hi, sweet Melissa! Instead of setting spray, I use my Lanocreme undereye serum with roller ball, tap lightly and let it dry without making any facial expressions! I don't powder over it! It works great for me! -xoxo
My under eye area is also my most challenging issue when applying makeup, so thank you for these helpful tips. Also, you don’t have big wrinkles, your skin looks great!
We had this conversation regarding doing our under eyes. I had to tweak it for my under eyes but it worked great. Love love love the LAGirl color corrector. Thank you for helping us with our nasty dark under eyes and wrinkles. Your make up is beautiful. Be safe. ❤️🌺
I’m hoping this works for me Melissa. I do have the primer and corrector and concealer you used , so I’m going to try these tricks and keep my fingers crossed. I have horrible dark circles and no matter what I try, nothing helps. I’ve learned to just deal with it. The grey shadow is always there. I’ll try this tomorrow morning and keep my fingers crossed. 🤞
MrsMelissaM Beauty well I gave it a shot and no good. Well it didn’t look as amazing as yours. But I’m going to keep trying. I’m sure it takes practice. I sleep like crap so I can’t help my dark circles. I’ll keep trying and get back to you. You haven’t let me down, so I’m hopeful ❤️🙏
Much needed video for me. My under eye dark circles are a problem. I am going to try the setting spray and powder to set. You know I always thought that crows feet (lines on side of eyes) were so sexy. Crazy right. I am getting slight lines around my mouth so concealing there to. You still young and pretty. Enjoy it!!!!😊😎
I feel like I have the worst under eye area of any 30 year old I've ever seen (very dry, discoloration, fine lines & wrinkles). I used to be an avid tanner but I stopped tanning about 3 years ago & have really started to treat my skin better in the last year so hopefully I can fix them somehow. I will also try your tips!
Mrs. M your classes have helped me soooo much!! I too have dark wrinkly under eyes and I have to layer and blend. Using the warm fingers helps so much with diminishing the wrinkly look. 😁
Great video, thank you so much for turning down the lights and zooming in. When you watch most under eye tutorials, they don't even have dark circles or lines and if they do, you can't see it because of the lighting, so the video doesn't really help. Yours is very helpful, will try your tips!
Glad it was helpful Lenka! I know when I watch people that it's the lighting. I think it helps to know that everyone has the same issue! Have a great weekend! xo
I use two faced Born this Way Concealer. I have darkness but don't use any color corrector. I use a Medical Grade Eye Cream that my dermatologist gave me a sample of and that's Revisions DEJ Eye Cream. It goes on your lid and under your eyes. Four years ago, before I started using DEJ, I couldn't find a concealer that didn't go in wrinkles and leave me dry. Now I love my undereyes! I also use Squalane Oil and CeraVe at night over the DEJ and my eyes are great. I'll be 61 Monday and I'm pleased with the shape of my wrinkles now! Revisions has a website but Premierlook sometimes has sales. Maybe try it. Even the Squalane at night I think puffs up the wrinkles. OH, I also use Argiriline that's for wrinkles. I no longer have crows feet! I'm glad you've found a tip that works! But try The Ordinarys Squalane and Argiriline on your under eyes at night. I highly recommend my Holy Grail The Revisions DEJ Eye Cream but it's spendy. I believe 87.00 which lasts close to two months. Take care my friend! 😘
I am having a bad time with menopause this summer too!! This morning I was putting on my foundation and had the worse hot-flash during. Took it all off and stared over. 🙄🌸
Hi Mellissa!! Gorgeous !!! Love your blue dress and beautiful matching eyemakeup ❤️💖❤️💖❤️ EXCELLENT video!!! I am 49 and this was so informative and helpful. Thanks for being so personal -just the same you are beautiful wrinkles blue/purple undereye coloring and all💖💖💖💖 Your lashes are gorgeous!!!when you were patting your concealer and raised your eyes BAMB those lashes🌟💫🌟💫 Thanks for a great video😘
Good morning, you are such a joy to watch you light up my day. I have always been into makeup and you have taught me a lot of great tips. Thank you so much for spreading joy and knowledge in helping us become the best we can be. Enjoy your summer I have hit the bell so I get all updates and stay safe. Karen Victoria
Hi Melissa!! I am so thankful I found your channel today!! I am 51 (about to turn 52 in Aug), menopausal- aka a hot sweaty mess- and I was just about to give up on makeup cuz I sweat it right off- especially at work these days- being a post Corona shut down dental hygienist who is back to work is NO JOKE!! I literally feel like I am in a sauna for 8 hours each day!! I've been binge watching your channel these last few hours- I am still a girly girl who loves makeup, the routine of it and I do like to feel pretty- which you are so gorgeous BTW!! I am soooo happy I found you! I sub'd right away and also on IG as well!!! Stay well!! xo
Hi there Jeannie. I'm so happy that you found me too doll! And super excited that you are enjoying the videos! Please let me know if I can help with anything at all! That is what I'm here for! Sending you a big welcome hug! 🤗🤗🤗
I have very dry under eyes and don’t/can’t powder. No matter what I do by the end of the day I do look very dry BUT I also have dry eye and they will water constantly that’s even when my allergies aren’t kicking up! There goes my concealer! Oh the problems we have! I will try the setting spray trick! Thanks M for another great video! XOXO 💜💜💜💜
Great information Melissa. I did see the Tik Tok video was you were talking about and wondered how that would look on skin over 50. This is an easy to follow routine. I’ll give it a try and let you know what I think. Hope you are enjoying your summer and able to get out with friends. We’ve been going out to the lake most weekends. 🌸🌺🌸🌸🌺🌸🥶
I have been subscribed for many years & watch EVERY video, but have never commented until now. Just wanted to say that your eye makeup & eyebrows look EXTRA naturally gorgeous today. Thanks so much for turning the lights down earlier. Definitely a thumbs up! Love from your loyal Aussie follower. Darn it, I can't find the emojis on this macbook to give you a "love heart" - brain turns to mush with fibromyalgia!
Oh my goodness Julie! I'm so happy that you decided to comment today! First, thank you for being here all that time, I appreciate it more than you know. And your comment was so sweet & thoughtful! Thank you for that! I hope to talk again soon sweet lady! Sending huge hugs your way!🤗🤗🤗
Hello sweet friend! Thank you for this wonderful tutorial. I pinned it so that I can refer to it later. I have such an awful time with my eyelid dryness and crepiness. I don’t have as much undereye crepiness but haven’t found anything for the eyelids. I find that shadow primer dries them out! I moisturize so many times too! I have dry skin most of the year but I’m pretty normal now. I find that I need to set my face with powder because I really perspire under my mask when going out. Small price to pay for keeping safe! Love you lots girlfriend. Smooches to you! 😘😘
Hi Jan. Have you tried my holy grail eye cream from Sukoyaka? It made a world of difference for my eyes both eyelids & under. The masks are messing with our makeup zen right? Lol. Hardly anyone uses them where i live. It's so frustrating! Hope you are staying safe my dear friend!🌹🌹🌹
I love this tutorial Melissa! I have such a hard time with my under eyes... this is exactly what I needed! It’s different with older skin and sometimes I get into way more trouble with concealer than if I just use foundation and nothing else... but I need more help than that. I can’t wait to try these techniques! PS... you’ll survive menopause... and then come the 60’s with a whole new set of problems! Lol but... thanks to people like you... I’m holding my own and so will you! 😘❤️🙏
Hi Melissa, great video ,very helpful, I have some darkness but I've never used a corrector , I'm going to try one now you made it look very easy to do and it looks really good, I do the setting spray on my sponge I've done this for a while now it really does make a difference especially where dryness is really disable, thanks again for sharing these tips all the best Mary 🌺
I love your tutorials! I have tried this method and am so glad you emphasis using a “teeny-tiny” amount of both concealer & powder bc first time I tried powder to set my cream products I used my Flower translucent powder using the “baked” method and, oh my hell - did I look like the crypt keeper! ...I’m currently using-up the Becca Sample of undereye primer, corrector & brightening powder I got during a recent sale & am finding those three work well on their own ...thanks again for giving us a great ‘template’ to work from in this video & for also encouraging us to discover what works best for us 👌✨😘
Hi Corina, perfect example of what works great for one person....I love that you experimented until you found the right combo for you! Sending you lots of hugs! xo
You look beautiful. For menopause what works for me is estroven weight managment, black cohosh and evening primrose. I had tried prescription estrogen but nothing helped. These supplements really help me. Plus get your thyroid levels checked sometimes when it's off you sweat even more. Just sharing since you mentioned menopause and it might help someone❤
Well Twirl my Turban Man Alive! I was just cosmetic browsing and went to the Avon site, what a shock! Their prices rival any department store brand, and not just the Anew! I looked it up and they say there are Avon saleswomen who have been there for years, and are quitting! They are also supposed to appear in department stores, at 67 I thought I would never see that day!
Love these tips! They do really work! I have oily skin in my T- zone and put lots of powder on my face and many times get too much powder under my eyes. It looks horrible and very wrinkly/ dry. I haven't tried the setting spray trick yet. I definitely want to try that! Thank you so much for helping us older gals to make our make-up work better!👍💕
I hope it works great for you Ingrid. & hope you & your family are staying safe during our second round of this crud! Our brothers were right weren't they?
I don't have the dark circles, but I do get the wrinkles after I use some powder. I am going to use your trick and see if that works for me. Thank you!😘
I saw a trick from Robert Welsh to use a lip stain instead of a color corrected because it is thinner & stays put better. I'm dying to try it, but haven't found the right color to try with it yet.
I never set my under eyes with powder.I use put setting spray on my sponge and dab my under eyes .I believe I told this top for and others a year ago 💖🌷💖
Genius! And thanks for using drugstore makeup. Do you remember what shade of eye shadow you used in your crease? I love blue but when I use it I think I go overboard. I love how you've done your eyes in this video. Thanks for another great video!
Greetings! I have a tremor and I was wondering how you line your eyes with all this vibrating going on? I get so frustrated trying to do my eye makeup! Thank you and blessings 🙏
Hi Jean, so sorry you suffer from this too, it's such a hard thing! I guess I just push past it because i get irritated with it. Many times when you seeing me cut over a bit in the video, it will be because my hand isn't cooperating & messes me up. I just do yhe best I can & i definitely am not going to let it slow me down!😉❤
I don’t wait to blend...interesting. I mix a little bit of foundation drops that are thin w pigment w a little bit of concealer I like. I no longer use a color corrector.
You made me laugh about looking like the “Crypt Keeper”! 😂. There is no way you ever could! Great tips! I am in that constant personal summers mode and need all the help I can get on keeping my make up on during the dual summers I am experiencing.
Hi Mrs .... Thank you for this video, my under eyes are my worst area they're so dry but the rest of my face is comb drives me bonkers, I luckily don't have dark circles or deep lines, but I struggle with everything looking so dried out 😂. I love the Revolution pro creaseless concealer it was your recommendation that put me onto it and you're so right about less it more with that concealer. I'm going to try a under eye primer never used one before and using settings powder and spray on a sponge. Send hugs and love 😘. Btw I picked up the No7 protect & perfect advanced all in one foundation love it thanks for the recommendation 😘
Love your videos Melissa. I bought many items you've recommended and love them all. It's hard to pick what I want to use in the morning! Have you tried milani concealer It dries nicely too. 🌷
I haave the same thing wrong with my eyes the dark color which i got from my gramma and deep rinkles i tried it out it worked so good thank you so much
Thank you for your tips on how to cover dark circles under your eyes, I am definitely going to try your method! Also, I was noticing the color of your brows and I have similar coloring as yours and was wondering which brow product you use. It looks like a warmer blonde which is what I am looking for.
I'll link it for you Stephanie. It's from Elf. If you open the drop down box under the video, you can always see the makeup I'm wearing or the products I talk about. ELF Earth & Ocean Palette amzn.to/2CGQjDT
I have had to give up on concealer after trying 8 diff products I realize it's not the product for me, tried a beauty blender, finger, brushes & more. Now, I just use a light dusting of WNWild powder & let it go at that... I feel so much better about myself that it's NOT me it's concealers all together. I don't have dark circle though.
Hi Melissa, fantastic video. I will definitely try those tips. my concealer always seem to settle under my eyes. I will try the setting spray tip. I'm going to buy the Revolution concealer once I've decided what shade I should go for. It has super coverage for darkness under the eyes. I need that concealer. Love to you❤️xx
Hi Melissa :) ! I have been using that ELF powder under my eyes ..it is sooo good..(I have not taken the plunge on Sydney Grace...but I will!) I used it on one under eye and then tried the IT bye bye pores under the other and the one with the Bye Bye pores looked terrible! The ELF side looks so good! You would be laughing at me today ..I used that palette I sent you a pic of from Colourpop today..the light in my house is pretty dim..when I got in the car my eyes look like disco balls lol lesson learned! You look so gorgeous as always! I had a question for you ... When you color your hair how do you keep the hair color from staining your hair line? I bought some today and I have never done this! ... I also wanted to tell you I drove clear over to CVS as I am currently obsessed with those Nivea Lip balms ...They are magical! Walmart doesn't carry them??? Omg The crypt keeper LMAO! You always make me laugh and smile! Thank you! Have a wonderful day!
Hi Nanc. Since the color I use on my hair is super light, I don't worry about my hairline. But if i were darker I'd just take a damp paper towel & clean it off that area after I got the product on. I hope that helps a little.
I've never thought of using the setting spray to set my under-eye concealer. I've always lightly powdered. At 54, you better believe I'll be trying this tomorrow morning! Thanks Melissa!!
Let me know what yoh thought of it LeAnn. I'd love to know🌹🌹🌹
MrsMelissaM Beauty I think I did it wrong. The sponge was picking up my concealer. Maybe I’m not using enough concealer?? I need to try again.
Mrs M, I so appreciate Your Brutally honest transparency and letting Your viewers see honest beauty, it so makes a difference for me, as to relating to our mature skin issues. Thank You so much for being You ~ And Personally I think our fingers are our best tools at times :) You are much Loved from this ole gal xoxo

I'm so glad that you're here with me Julie! Thanks so much! Sending you big hugs! xoxo
I use the L.A. Girl Peach Concealer not only under my eyes but also on blemishes. It hides them really well when concealer alone isn't enough.
I absolutely agree with you Rebecca! It's so great!❌⭕❌⭕

Hi there Marta! So happy you liked the video. Hope u are having a great weekend!

Glad it was helpful Lenka! I know when I watch people that it's the lighting. I think it helps to know that everyone has the same issue! Have a great weekend! xo
You have such a pleasant manner, I love watching your videos because of your knowledge and your lovely personality. ❤️❤️ Hi from Australia!
Oh thats so sweet! & I'm super glad you enjoy them! Hi from the states girlfriend!
I use two faced Born this Way Concealer. I have darkness but don't use any color corrector. I use a Medical Grade Eye Cream that my dermatologist gave me a sample of and that's Revisions DEJ Eye Cream. It goes on your lid and under your eyes. Four years ago, before I started using DEJ, I couldn't find a concealer that didn't go in wrinkles and leave me dry. Now I love my undereyes! I also use Squalane Oil and CeraVe at night over the DEJ and my eyes are great. I'll be 61 Monday and I'm pleased with the shape of my wrinkles now! Revisions has a website but Premierlook sometimes has sales. Maybe try it. Even the Squalane at night I think puffs up the wrinkles. OH, I also use Argiriline that's for wrinkles. I no longer have crows feet! I'm glad you've found a tip that works! But try The Ordinarys Squalane and Argiriline on your under eyes at night. I highly recommend my Holy Grail The Revisions DEJ Eye Cream but it's spendy. I believe 87.00 which lasts close to two months. Take care my friend! 😘
Hi Lori. I'm going to go straight from here & check out that eye cream! Thx so much girlfriend! Luv u🌹🌹🌹💖
@@MrsMelissaM great!!!!
I am having a bad time with menopause this summer too!! This morning I was putting on my foundation and had the worse hot-flash during. Took it all off and stared over. 🙄🌸
Oh no Rhonda! I have sweat mine off before too! It really just sucks! lolol
MrsMelissaM Beauty It really does! I’m just starting this stuff. It’s miserable! 💕
Hi Mellissa!!
Gorgeous !!! Love your blue dress and beautiful matching eyemakeup ❤️💖❤️💖❤️

Lol thx so much Esti! I'm super glad it was helpful. Happy weekend! 💖💖💖
Good morning, you are such a joy to watch you light up my day. I have always been into makeup and you have taught me a lot of great tips. Thank you so much for spreading joy and knowledge in helping us become the best we can be. Enjoy your summer I have hit the bell so I get all updates and stay safe. Karen Victoria
What a sweet comment Karen! Thank you so much! Sending you happy thoughts for a great weekend! xoxo
Hi Melissa!! I am so thankful I found your channel today!! I am 51 (about to turn 52 in Aug), menopausal- aka a hot sweaty mess- and I was just about to give up on makeup cuz I sweat it right off- especially at work these days- being a post Corona shut down dental hygienist who is back to work is NO JOKE!! I literally feel like I am in a sauna for 8 hours each day!! I've been binge watching your channel these last few hours- I am still a girly girl who loves makeup, the routine of it and I do like to feel pretty- which you are so gorgeous BTW!! I am soooo happy I found you! I sub'd right away and also on IG as well!!! Stay well!! xo
Hi there Jeannie. I'm so happy that you found me too doll! And super excited that you are enjoying the videos! Please let me know if I can help with anything at all! That is what I'm here for! Sending you a big welcome hug! 🤗🤗🤗
I have very dry under eyes and don’t/can’t powder. No matter what I do by the end of the day I do look very dry BUT I also have dry eye and they will water constantly that’s even when my allergies aren’t kicking up! There goes my concealer! Oh the problems we have! I will try the setting spray trick! Thanks M for another great video! XOXO 💜💜💜💜
Hi Laurie. Have you tried my holy grail eye cream from Sukoyaka? It hydrates like nothing else I've ever found! Let me know if you want me to link it.
MrsMelissaM Beauty hi... it’s on my buy list m, I just haven’t pushed the button. Thank you
Great information Melissa. I did see the Tik Tok video was you were talking about and wondered how that would look on skin over 50. This is an easy to follow routine. I’ll give it a try and let you know what I think. Hope you are enjoying your summer and able to get out with friends. We’ve been going out to the lake most weekends. 🌸🌺🌸🌸🌺🌸🥶
Hope you like it Janice. I'm glad you are able to do some fun things for summer! xoxo
I have been subscribed for many years & watch EVERY video, but have never commented until now. Just wanted to say that your eye makeup & eyebrows look EXTRA naturally gorgeous today. Thanks so much for turning the lights down earlier. Definitely a thumbs up! Love from your loyal Aussie follower. Darn it, I can't find the emojis on this macbook to give you a "love heart" - brain turns to mush with fibromyalgia!
Oh my goodness Julie! I'm so happy that you decided to comment today! First, thank you for being here all that time, I appreciate it more than you know. And your comment was so sweet & thoughtful! Thank you for that! I hope to talk again soon sweet lady! Sending huge hugs your way!🤗🤗🤗
I have not found a concealer, i stopped looking. Thankyou Sis xxx 💕❤💞🐕🐾🐾
Oh no!! But I know how you feel sissy! The struggle is real. Hope you are doing well girlfriend! 💖🥰
Thank you so much for dimming the lights to show us better!
No problem SueAnn. It really does make a difference for us to know that lighting plays such a huge part for YTers! xo
Yes, I’ve used the tan towels since last year 😉😘.
Oh I love those things! Beautiful tan for mature skin Carol! xo
Hello sweet friend! Thank you for this wonderful tutorial. I pinned it so that I can refer to it later. I have such an awful time with my eyelid dryness and crepiness. I don’t have as much undereye crepiness but haven’t found anything for the eyelids. I find that shadow primer dries them out! I moisturize so many times too! I have dry skin most of the year but I’m pretty normal now. I find that I need to set my face with powder because I really perspire under my mask when going out. Small price to pay for keeping safe! Love you lots girlfriend. Smooches to you! 😘😘
Hi Jan. Have you tried my holy grail eye cream from Sukoyaka? It made a world of difference for my eyes both eyelids & under. The masks are messing with our makeup zen right? Lol. Hardly anyone uses them where i live. It's so frustrating! Hope you are staying safe my dear friend!🌹🌹🌹
I love this tutorial Melissa! I have such a hard time with my under eyes... this is exactly what I needed! It’s different with older skin and sometimes I get into way more trouble with concealer than if I just use foundation and nothing else... but I need more help than that. I can’t wait to try these techniques! PS... you’ll survive menopause... and then come the 60’s with a whole new set of problems! Lol but... thanks to people like you... I’m holding my own and so will you! 😘❤️🙏
I'm so glad the video was helpful Donna. It is a real struggle to use makeup as we age. xoxo
Another excellent video thanks honey 🥰🥰 the Tik tok thing has actually been working on me but it doesn’t last all day so you’re right there
Hi Angelina. I'm glad I'm not the only one!
You are so great and enthusiastic!! Thank you for being you!!
You're so sweet Debbie! Thanks for being here with me! ❤❤❤
I want to try the Catrice primer and the SG powder. Your under eyes look great!
You'll have to let me know what you think if you try them Karen. I'd love to hear from you ❌⭕❌⭕
Hi Melissa, great video ,very helpful, I have some darkness but I've never used a corrector , I'm going to try one now you made it look very easy to do and it looks really good, I do the setting spray on my sponge I've done this for a while now it really does make a difference especially where dryness is really disable, thanks again for sharing these tips all the best Mary 🌺
Glad it was helpful Mary. The Color corrector is my saving grace! Let me know what you think, xo
I love your tutorials! I have tried this method and am so glad you emphasis using a “teeny-tiny” amount of both concealer & powder bc first time I tried powder to set my cream products I used my Flower translucent powder using the “baked” method and, oh my hell - did I look like the crypt keeper! ...I’m currently using-up the Becca Sample of undereye primer, corrector & brightening powder I got during a recent sale & am finding those three work well on their own ...thanks again for giving us a great ‘template’ to work from in this video & for also encouraging us to discover what works best for us 👌✨😘
Hi Corina, perfect example of what works great for one person....I love that you experimented until you found the right combo for you! Sending you lots of hugs! xo
You look beautiful. For menopause what works for me is estroven weight managment, black cohosh and evening primrose. I had tried prescription estrogen but nothing helped. These supplements really help me. Plus get your thyroid levels checked sometimes when it's off you sweat even more. Just sharing since you mentioned menopause and it might help someone❤
Thx so much Stephanie. I just ordered them, fingers crossed! 🤞💜
I got the same problem under the eyes..definitely goung to try the pro concealer in peach..Thank you for sharing 🥰
I hope it works well for you Billie Jean. You'll have to let me know if you give it a try!
Well Twirl my Turban Man Alive! I was just cosmetic browsing and went to the Avon site, what a shock! Their prices rival any department store brand, and not just the Anew! I looked it up and they say there are Avon saleswomen who have been there for years, and are quitting! They are also supposed to appear in department stores, at 67 I thought I would never see that day!
VERY HELPFUL! and thank you much for the affordable options!
I'm glad you liked it Samantha! 🌷🌷🌷
Love these tips! They do really work! I have oily skin in my T- zone and put lots of powder on my face and many times get too much powder under my eyes. It looks horrible and very wrinkly/ dry. I haven't tried the setting spray trick yet. I definitely want to try that! Thank you so much for helping us older gals to make our make-up work better!👍💕
I hope it works great for you Ingrid. & hope you & your family are staying safe during our second round of this crud! Our brothers were right weren't they?
I want to get the Elf Cameo concealer. I like all the tips you give.
I think you will really like it Ann! thanks so much for being here with me! xo
Great tips my under eyes are so dry right now! Thanks Melissa Jennifer 😁❤️
You are so welcome Jennifer! Hope you have a great weekend my friend! xo
Brilliant thats exactly what I need i have the colour corrector and spray il order the rest in the morning great video your a star thankyou xxx
You have to let me know whay you think Marie. ❌⭕❌⭕
Today I tried some of your tips from a few of your videos and I look awesome thanks 😬🥰💗
Lol! Love to hear that Caroline!🤗🤗🤗
I've learned so many great tips from you. Thank you🥰
I'm so happy to hear that Lisa! Thank you
I don't have the dark circles, but I do get the wrinkles after I use some powder. I am going to use your trick and see if that works for me. Thank you!😘
Wonderful Jody, please let me know if it works for you! xo
I saw a trick from Robert Welsh to use a lip stain instead of a color corrected because it is thinner & stays put better. I'm dying to try it, but haven't found the right color to try with it yet.
Great tip Kery. I'll have to try it. Thx❌⭕❌⭕
I never set my under eyes with powder.I use put setting spray on my sponge and dab my under eyes .I believe I told this top for and others a year ago 💖🌷💖
Yep, it works so good Lisa. I've been showing this on my tutorials for a long time! Hugs to you
Thanks for the tips, Melissa. Loved the video.
My pleasure Barbara. I'm so glad you liked it 🌹🌹🌹
Genius! And thanks for using drugstore makeup. Do you remember what shade of eye shadow you used in your crease? I love blue but when I use it I think I go overboard. I love how you've done your eyes in this video. Thanks for another great video!
I think I used Can't Kelp It in the crease from the ELF Earth & Ocean palette Kimberly.
I will try the setting spray trick tomorrow. Thank you so much!
I hope it went well for you Robin. Please let me know!
@@MrsMelissaM it was OK - I think it depends on the spray tbh. I'm going to keep experimenting with it.
I love you don’t miss your tutorials videos love them all 😍😍😍😍
Yay! I'm so glad to hear that Candie!🤗🤗🤗
Thanks for the tip. I have seen the Tik Tok. I’m going to definitely try this ! 🤗🤗
I hope it works for you Roseanna, please let me know! xoxo
Greetings! I have a tremor and I was wondering how you line your eyes with all this vibrating going on? I get so frustrated trying to do my eye makeup! Thank you and blessings 🙏
Hi Jean, so sorry you suffer from this too, it's such a hard thing! I guess I just push past it because i get irritated with it. Many times when you seeing me cut over a bit in the video, it will be because my hand isn't cooperating & messes me up. I just do yhe best I can & i definitely am not going to let it slow me down!😉❤
Great tips. I’m with ya menapause has me sweating up a storm this summer 🥰🥰
The struggle is real Janice! Uhg!
Great video! I got the Catrice under eye primer when you last mentioned it and love it!
Yay! I love hearing when products are working out! Thanks Tamera!
I always enjoy your tips videos!!!
Thanks so much!💖💖💖
I don’t wait to blend...interesting. I mix a little bit of foundation drops that are thin w pigment w a little bit of concealer I like. I no longer use a color corrector.
Great tip Debbie! Thank you! xo
You made me laugh about looking like the “Crypt Keeper”! 😂. There is no way you ever could!
Great tips! I am in that constant personal summers mode and need all the help I can get on keeping my make up on during the dual summers I am experiencing.
I totally understand that Marenea! It's like we didn't have enough with having babies & periods right?!?!? lol
MrsMelissaM Beauty So true! 😉
Menopause is kicking my butt. It was 73 in the house and my face looks like I had a hard workout.
Lol you sound just like me Renee!
I put my face In the freezer all the time. I despise hot flashes!
Lol...too funny
I can relate, too! 🥵
Hi Mrs .... Thank you for this video, my under eyes are my worst area they're so dry but the rest of my face is comb drives me bonkers, I luckily don't have dark circles or deep lines, but I struggle with everything looking so dried out 😂. I love the Revolution pro creaseless concealer it was your recommendation that put me onto it and you're so right about less it more with that concealer. I'm going to try a under eye primer never used one before and using settings powder and spray on a sponge. Send hugs and love 😘. Btw I picked up the No7 protect & perfect advanced all in one foundation love it thanks for the recommendation 😘
Hi Ann-Marie, that area is such a problem for so many of us. It drives me crazy too. I'm so glad you are enjoying the foundation. It's so pretty! xoxo
Amazing and very helpful video 👍💯
Hey, that's my line, "The crypt keeper!", lolololol!!!! Very informative video. Thanks Melissa!!!
Hahaha! Well for me its spot on! Glad you like the video😁💖💖💖
Love your videos Melissa. I bought many items you've recommended
and love them all. It's hard to pick what I want to use in the morning!
Have you tried milani concealer It dries nicely too. 🌷
Have you done a video on applying makeup when having hot flashes
I haven't, but that's a great idea!
I haave the same thing wrong with my eyes the dark color which i got from my gramma and deep rinkles i tried it out it worked so good thank you so much
I hope it works for you Dannette. Let me know if you try it! xo
Aloha 🌺🌼 well done! I use the same technique and the same products and it really works!!
I love your videos 💕💕💕🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷
That's great that you're already doing what works for you!❌⭕
Thank you for your tips on how to cover dark circles under your eyes, I am definitely going to try your method! Also, I was noticing the color of your brows and I have similar coloring as yours and was wondering which brow product you use. It looks like a warmer blonde which is what I am looking for.
Hi Margie. It is the NYX Micro Brow Prncil in Ash Brow & I top it with the Elf Wow Brow in taupe. I hope that helps you out a bit. 💖💜💖💜💖
MrsMelissaM Beauty Thank you so much, I will give it a try! Hopefully it will look as good on me as it does on you!
Thank you for this video. Can you tell me what eye shadow you have in? It’s beautiful!
I'll link it for you Stephanie. It's from Elf. If you open the drop down box under the video, you can always see the makeup I'm wearing or the products I talk about.
ELF Earth & Ocean Palette amzn.to/2CGQjDT
I have had to give up on concealer after trying 8 diff products I realize it's not the product for me, tried a beauty blender, finger, brushes & more. Now, I just use a light dusting of WNWild powder & let it go at that... I feel so much better about myself that it's NOT me it's concealers all together. I don't have dark circle though.
Hi Kat. I'm so glad that you found something that works best for you! Definitely what we all need to do.
Hi Melissa, fantastic video. I will definitely try those tips. my concealer always seem to settle under my eyes. I will try the setting spray tip. I'm going to buy the Revolution concealer once I've decided what shade I should go for. It has super coverage for darkness under the eyes. I need that concealer. Love to you❤️xx
I hope it eorks great for you Nena. Let me know. ❌⭕❌⭕
Great tips!! Plus I love your nail polish! Do you know the color?
I'm pretty sure I listed it in the video right above the "products mentioned".
Hi Melissa :) ! I have been using that ELF powder under my eyes ..it is sooo good..(I have not taken the plunge on Sydney Grace...but I will!) I used it on one under eye and then tried the IT bye bye pores under the other and the one with the Bye Bye pores looked terrible! The ELF side looks so good!
You would be laughing at me today ..I used that palette I sent you a pic of from Colourpop today..the light in my house is pretty dim..when I got in the car my eyes look like disco balls lol lesson learned!
You look so gorgeous as always! I had a question for you ... When you color your hair how do you keep the hair color from staining your hair line? I bought some today and I have never done this! ...
I also wanted to tell you I drove clear over to CVS as I am currently obsessed with those Nivea Lip balms ...They are magical! Walmart doesn't carry them???
Omg The crypt keeper LMAO! You always make me laugh and smile! Thank you! Have a wonderful day!
Hi Nanc. Since the color I use on my hair is super light, I don't worry about my hairline. But if i were darker I'd just take a damp paper towel & clean it off that area after I got the product on. I hope that helps a little.
MrsMelissaM Beauty thank you! I appreciate the help!
You may have said in your demonstration and I missed it. Was your power From Sidney Grace Mica or Talc? Thank you. You are beautiful.
Hi Tammy. It's a Mica based powder.
I'll try the setting spray because I have to use more powder or I crease like crazy!
I hopd it works well for you Lbeezy!
This was super helpful! 💜
Yay! I'm so glad it was!
Can’t wait to try this !! 🧡
I hope it works great for you July. Let me know. 😉😁💖💖💖
