    I get the attraction to luxury brand makeup. I can’t afford a Chanel bag but there is something about applying a Chanel blush (even if it is more expensive than a drugstore brand), it makes me feel special. I can only afford one however, so I wear it everyday I wear makeup. I also love Saks’ beauty department as well. When I worked in the city, my office was down the street and lunchtime would sometimes be costly, but fun!

    Years ago I had a full set of Bobbi Brown brushes and I thought they were the sh*t. That is until I purchased my first Japanese Fude brush from Hakuhodo, the S121, which is blue squirrel. That brush changed everything for me in terms of tools. I ended purchasing most of their eye brushes from the S100 series and I’m also fully into Sonia G’s brushes. I have all of her brushes and they are game changers. Loved this video Michele…I’m hopping over to Angela’s channel right after this one.

    • @mermaidmaenad

    I totally agree what Michelle said about niche perfumes vs cheaper ones - the lack of complexity. For years I was so utterly bored and disappointed when smelling perfumes at regular department stores - most of the scents smelled like lazy clones of each other. Luckily, I discovered the possibility of ordering discovery sets from niche brands and I've been much happier since, scent-wise. :) E.g., the MFK discovery set - such a great value for money!!

I really enjoyed this video, and I sure hope to see more of 1 on 1 chit chat type content from you!

    I have actually tried the Givenchy eyeshadows in a 9 pan, those are said to have been reformulated, and I picked the purple/brown/grey palette (another one was black/grey/white metallic type of color story, also pretty), it came out a couple of summers ago, and it is very good quality 😉 have no idea about their other palettes and take your word for it. Their blushes used to be really good, I hd a blush palette ages ago, I loved it.

    I have a contribution to the 'don't use' tag. Not a brand but a category. So many luxury brands are not cruelty free, and lest you think I am a wild-eyed crazy, I am just a veterinarian, advocating for those who can't for themselves. It means no Dior, no Chanel, but there are so many good ones out there that you can use, so you really don't have to compromise. If you have a dog or cat, or have ever uttered the phrase : 'I love animals', please consider if you really need to use a product on your face where an animal has suffered to bring it to market. It feels very good to walk your talk, and I can look my dog in the eye and say I have done a good thing.

    I agree with you on the accessibility of luxury products in the make up area because I too do not feel like I can afford the luxury handbags or the clothing. I’m also a klutz and I inadvertently messed up my clothes and I don’t want to have to send stuff to the dry cleaner. To me, high end and luxury makeup and skin care is an investment in the health of my skin.

    • @violetviolet888

  • @midtownbrownstyle321
    @midtownbrownstyle321 2 роки тому +2

    This was interesting, Michele. I have a different take from you on whether to invest in skincare or makeup. Though I agree you should prioritize skincare, I don’t think you need to buy luxury to get a decent skincare routine. However, there’s no substitute for a luxury foundation or a quality makeup brush.

  • @marionandrews176
    @marionandrews176 2 роки тому +1

    Great video! I have always been into luxury skincare, but you have really inspired my love of luxury makeup and the importance of good quality brushes. I’ve heard that drugstore makeup has really improved, probably out of necessity in terms competition from retailers like Sephora and Ulta, but I too get overwhelmed shopping drugstore and have trouble selecting products I cannot test. I also just love the experience of luxury product; the packaging, texture and quality makes it even more enjoyable. Let’s face it, the instant gratification from in-store shopping is great, but opening a beautifully boxed luxury makeup delivery (samples included of course) is so exciting (who doesn’t like a good ole fashion unboxing video). I also think online shopping takes away the fear/intimidation of walking into a high-end store.

    I have Le 9 de Givenchy LE 9.01 and I really love it. I don’t notice it being not pigmented or dusty but it might just be me, I don’t need overly pigmented makeup, I like to not have to work too hard on blending. In saying that I have Pat and Natasha etc and am just careful with how much I use and I love them too. As far as I remember we didn’t have Sisley here in Australia, I tended to use Chanel, Dior and Lancôme years ago and always thought of Estée Lauder as being the brand for older ladies.

    Your last story about the concealer and the liquid lipstick is so relatable because it’s EXACTLY what happened to me. I’ve always worn makeup and I did a decent enough job with it, but I wanted to up my makeup game, so I started watching UA-cam tutorials in my early 40s (probably around 2017). I’ve never really used concealer, so I bought what the influencer recommended and did what they did and when I looked in the mirror after I set it with powder I couldn’t believe how much older I looked! It had aged me 20 years! I swore off concealer after that and, to this day, I still don’t use it. I don’t have dark circles really, so I don’t really need it, thankfully. And I will never wear liquid lipstick again after I tried it out a few times back then either. Sure, it stays on for a long time, but it sucks every once of moisture from my lips and when it finally does wear off (like if I were to eat), you can’t reapply it without completely removing it or it looks terrible. And it doesn’t just dry your lips while you’re wearing it! My lips would be dry for days afterwards.
    So I might need to try concealer again eventually, but nothing could ever compel me to try liquid lipstick ever again.

I was so tempted last fall to send you a box of things in case you wanted to do film another but I talked myself out of it. That said, I think there's a lot of stuff out now that you would enjoy. L'Oréal's done a lot with their Age Perfect lineup, plus their True Match Hyaluronic Serum Foundation, Revlon's Rose Glow products, e.l.f.'s Putty Blush and Bronzers and their Wow Brow Gel (with fibers!), Flower Beauty's glowy complexion products, No7's hydraluminous range...

    I've tended to purchase the best base product that I've been able to afford, in terms of foundation/tinted moisturizer. Foundations have really evolved in the last 10 years, and now include far more skincare (and a better shade range) than they used to, so I feel like consumers are getting more for their dollar in that way. Current favorites: Givenchy Prisme Libre Foundation alternated with Lune and Aster SPF 50+ CC Cream. I use mascara from Beauty Pie. Every cosmetic house has it's hits and misses. Will def be going over to check out Angela's channel.

    I'm sure I'm in the minority but I like Givenchy eyeshadows. I've had my best luck with them in travel exclusive palettes that I've purchased overseas at Duty Free stores. In fact my most recent palette purchases were Givenchy and Dior in Rome and I wore the Givenchy one today. I like that they are a little less pigmented rather than so intense. I also wish Givenchy hadn't discontinued their kohl eye pencils and 4-in1 mascara in brown. What a bummer!

    Agree to start with the basics… foundation, brushes…What you put on top matters too, of course, but if you don’t have a great base and are using inferior brushes, no matter how great the product you are using is, it’s not going to work well. Great video 😊

    Loved this video. But then I look forward to and enjoy all your videos. Drugstore brands have definitely improved over the year. However, I find that, as I have aged, luxury brands seem to work better on my older, crepier and drier skin. The one exception is mascara. I love the Wayne Goss and Charlotte Tilbury mascaras, but I love my Maybelline mascaras, too.

    Love this tag Michele !! Foundation seems to be the logical start but for years I used the MAC studio fix powder foundation … never used any face products including concealers primers until recently … now I can’t live without Chanel No 1 and Lisa Eldridge … I also never used mascara … I was born with very long lashes but as I aged they thinned out completely and every luxury brand I tried … especially Chanel … I was allergic too … so I used whatever I would get from those gift with purchase ones from Nordstrom or neimans … now I use Saie and Jones Road and am happy. My first eyeshadow palette came from Princess Marcella Borghese … remember that brand?? Now it’s Natasha Denona although they can be intimidating … loving the Tom Ford crème ones so happy there! I’m still looking for the perfect lipstick line … I do live Lisa Eldridge and I used to own so much Chanel but with all the choices these days I don’t know where to go. As far as a brand to stay away from … I don’t like Charlotte Tilbury … just my opinion … don’t really care for Gucci either and have to rethink going back to Chanel… but their lipstick line just doesn’t work for me and don’t get me started on the reformulated bronzer and blushes .. Givenchy I only use their powder … nothing else really catches my eye.
    Great Video!!

      Does the Sake mascara smudge or flake? I'm not a lipstick person, but I fell in love with the Givenchy le rouge sheer -- I put it on top of my clear nivea lip balm - 27, rouge infuse, is MLBB and feels like nothing.

      @@JLeigh75309 The Saie mascara for me doesn’t flake but I am very weird when it comes to mascara… I only use one coat … I just don’t like the heavy look … so it’s a good one cause I find no irritation… I also just received the Jones Road Beauty one and that’s a great formulation too …

    I will say that you do need to try more than one drugstore mascara to make a judgment on them - I have also had that experience with high end mascara that they dry out and change rather quickly. Formulas are so different, and so are our lashes!

  • @tammyeaton4791
    @tammyeaton4791 2 роки тому

    I prefer Hourglass or Thrive Causemetics to drugstore mascaras because of the longer shelf life and the tubing formulas as better for not smudging or flaking. The high end and luxury makeup do it for me in regards to performance and wear experience. Drugstore makeup HAS gotten a LOT better, but i have my makeup loves and most are not at the drugstore.

    My beloved Dior Show mascara and a Laura Mercier both started irritating my eyes when I wore my contacts. The only one I can tolerate is a Cover Girl, and it’s pretty good in that it doesn’t smear or flake.

    I love the last one with the Urban Decay concealer. That is the absolute best advice. Don’t follow influencers with different skin types & preferences. It doesn’t do me any good to watch an influencer that loves full coverage foundation do a review on skin tints. They are just going to blather on how it doesn’t provide enough coverage. I happen to like that about skin tints.

    Yes, I really enjoy my Givenchy eye shadow pallets! Lexi Jong has turned me onto them this past summer. I have the #3 (a cool neutral) and the 2021 holiday pallet. I have been very happy with both, and I typically wear Tom Ford, Chanel or Dior eyeshadows. I also really enjoy the Givenchy eye liners. Full disclosure, Lexi did mention that she had previously purchased the Givenchy purple pallet, and that one was a dud! So maybe they re-did the formula? But, I would absolutely be interested in future releases from the Givenchy eye shadow collection.
