one of my favorite things about you, Sam, is that even when we are so zoomed in to just your one eye... we can totally still see the exact facial expressions and emotions that you're having with just that one eye
girl... I've been with you since the Reddit days. This is such an amazing accomplishment and you deserve this and all of the projects to come in the future!
Sam is a real icon, actually achieving a long-standing dream is an accomplishment for anyone but at such a young age and with such a high-ranking company is so impressive! Having watched this channel for a long time it's easy to see how much she has developed as a person and become more relaxed and confident. We love you Sam!!
I currently work for MAC in the UK and my interview was honestly the scariest thing i had ever done, the people interviewing me were like makeup gods in my eyes and finding out i got the job was probably the best feeling i have ever ever felt in my whole life and nothing has topped that so far... its crazy!!!! so for you Sam, this is so rewarding and you deserve it so much. Its right up my street, I NEED that lippie!
I love your story about growing up and buying one thing at a time. Reminds me of when I was in high school (late 80's) and my mom and I would wait until the local department store had a gift-with-purchase for Lancome or Estee Lauder or whatever and we would go in and figure out the minimum we needed to buy to get the gift. For me it was usually eyeshadow. For the longest time I wore the reddest red lipsticks because that was usually what was in the gift, and I always had nice black lashes because every gift had a tube of mascara in it. Fun times. Now I'm fortunate/successful enough to be able to walk into a makeup store or department store and and not have it be a big deal if I come out with a haul's worth of makeup. It makes me happy. Thanks for your channel!
anyone else get teary eyed at the end? lmao. SAM. you deserve absolutely everything that is good in life. you've worked so hard to get where you are and i'm so proud of you! ❤️❤️❤️
I have to say, since hearing about the MAC collabs, I was/am most excited about yours because you're such an artistic inspiration. I'm in the US without twitter so I'll be missing out on this one, but rooting for you in spirit. So proud and cool to see. Congrats, Sam!
samantha ravndahl girl you are such an inspiration, i can watch your videos over and over....keep striving and the possibilities are endless...so excited for your mac calab!!!
Thank you for finally being someone that actually talks about that issue with the Josie Maran foundation! I had the same problem and was so disappointed because it was the first foundation to properly color match my skin, but it gave me the strangest texture to my skin and I've never had texture issues before!
Oh man, it's like you're talking about my 17 year old self in this video, haha. I lived in Victoria, and we only had MAC when I was a teenager as well. I would skip the afternoon of school to bus downtown to the MAC counter and chat with all the artists. Sometimes they would play around with eye looks on me, etc., and I just thought it was the best thing ever. MAC gift cards were THE gift for me on birthdays and Christmas and man, those hauls though... Some of the girls from the counter went to Blanche Macdonald, and that was THE dream of my naive teenage-hood. Needless to say, I got lazy as fuck and stopped expanding/hoarding my collection of MAC eyeshadows and eventually stopped playing with makeup on a consistent basis altogether. It's nice to know that someone pursued that naive, teenage MAC dream and succeeded! It makes me so happy :)
Sam! I'm so proud of you! This collab is HUGE. I'm so sad it's not available in the US, but I will go to Twitter and claim a Canadian. Congratulations for working your ass off for this. It's awesome that you're able to do what you love and stay positive and have these great things happen. You're by FAR my favorite influencer and I'm so glad that you're able to work with one of your OG loves 😘 thank you for being so honest and open with the scope fam about everything. It's part of why we love you. That and your damn sarcasm....you're just the best. Congrats once again, you deserve this!
Ahhh Sam I am so so happy for you!!! I feel like I've been following you for so long that this feels like an accomplishment for me as well haha. Your humbleness and honesty really inspires me, and if this industry ever works out for me, I only wish to remain as grounded as you are. Needless to say, this collab is such a huge milestone so MASSIVE congratulations, keep on keeping on :) xo
Sam, I freaking love you. This video was so relatable. I've been working in cosmetic retail for a year now. I truly love the company I work for and desperately want to move up the corporate ladder. I've already interviewed once for a higher position, but was looked over for someone who had no experience, but was still thought to be more qualified. That was a really dark time for me. I tried so hard and had so much hope, but in that moment I truly felt like giving up. Giving up on the company, makeup, and the passion I have for it. But I'm sticking it out because I love what I do. I know it will all pay off one day. Thanks for being you. We're so proud 😘
You are not "lame" for doing natural makeup lol I love watching your videos for you and of course makeup skills. If you were to post a video of you just talking about your favorite pair of socks, I'd still watch. Congratulations on the lipstick. It's so so cool. I can't even imagine how you're feeling. Love you Sam!
ALL OF THE PARTS OF THIS VIDEO ARE MY FAVOURITE PARTS. Congrats on the lipstick, I am so excited to get it. I hope you have a majestic day tomorrow at your launch!
My story about MAC is the exact same. Obsessed with MAC at a young age because that's all we had in Nanaimo at the time, and then working for them seasonally for 2 years. Didn't work out. I grabbed two of your lipsticks though and I'm so excited for them to get here. Bummed I couldn't make it to your meet & greet because I feel like nothing exciting ever happens here in the Vancouver/Vancouver Island area. Congratulations again Sam
I have recently discovered that natural, dewy, "real skin" kind of makeup look too! I love the Bobbi Brown Skin Foundation. (I have oily skin) I don't use much powder anymore either.
Sam fills out the description box 2 uploads in a row?!....... Falls outta chair in shock LMAO! I feel like I don't even know you anymore ahahaaaa (ttly cracking myself up over here btw)
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 So happy for you, Sam!! I love how you've come so far but have stayed true to yourself. Sounds so cheesy, but whatever. You're great and I hope you know that. ❤️
this look brings me back to your first videos on youtube, which i have watched like 50 times each, love it. and im so happy for you that you now have your very own mac lipstick. you deserve it so much
Oh my goodness, with me having super textured and oily skin as well as for the most part not being able to stand foundation, I thought I would HATE the Josie Maran foundation!! I got a few samples of it from sephora so I tried it and it's honestly my favorite foundation. I Also loveeee it for a liquid bronzer.
Your working at MAC story sounds so much like mine. During my 3rd interview with them( yes, 3rd. 1st was with counter mgr, 2nd was my makeup interview, 3rd was with regional manager) I said I was 100% going to retire at MAC. I also loved their training process, and was super into white liner. And Plushlash! MAC WHY!!!! It was so beautiful😢. It's so awesome that you got to create a Lipstick with them. I'm trying to figure out a way to get my hands on one, I wish they sold it in the US.. This was one of my favorite videos by you, congrats on your MAC Lipstick!!
So happy for you. I'm sure it was an amazing, humbling experience when they contacted you to do that. You deserve it. I've always love watching your channel because you are super talented and your personality is so funny and sarcastic. Pretty much my personality. lol
I can relate to the companies cancelling your favourite products... It happens to me ALL the time. And not even just makeup... Last week I went to buy the pre packed lettuce I like and the grocery store suddenly didn't have it (they took away the tag for the location.) Like somebody discontinued lettuce!?!?
This is my official CONGRATULATIONS to you Sam. I havnt said it yet but seriously congrats. What an accomplishment. I'm so very very happy for you! xoxo -loyal follower
I live in Winnipeg, MB and MAC always has the best artists to get your makeup done. Also, I love their Back to Mac recycle program! Love the GOT comparison!
I started off with MAC too - I was 19 years old and would buy a single eyeshadow or lip gloss each pay check. My first eyeshadow was pink lust and my first lip gloss was "prrr" because Paris Hilton mentioned it! haha! I'm so proud of your collaboration. Will definitely be purchasing it to support you.
Just found your channel from Jamie's tag... love your humor and your talent just totally set you apart from other UA-camrs. So effortless with that eyeshadow brush! 💜
Loving the look of your skin with that foundation. I've been trying so hard to go with a lighter coverage and spot concealing and it's really improved how I feel about my looks in general. Can't make it to your meet and greet as I'm in Texas but maybe someday
I wish I could go to your meet n greet 😔! You look so beautiful n I like this look! You make it seem like you just fluff your eyeshadow on like it's not hard at all and the blend is on point! Congrats on your lipstick girl!
You deserved this opportunity more than anyone else! You gooo girl 💕 Currently trying to get a lipstick shipped to the UK from one of your lovely Canadian subs xxx
Girl you know you came far when you have a stranger in your house washing your eyelashes lol I only watched a few of your videos and the video with that story me die laughing love your channel !
Hi Samantha!! I went this summer to Canada and I visited mac store in vancouver downtown I bought your lipstick and I also took a picture with you... But sadly this summer I was running late to catch the train and my bag opened and all my make up bags fell out, so I rapidly picked them up and put them back into my bag... but since I was in a hurry I missed one of my make up cases and I lost all my lipsticks including yours... Which was the best one i had and the worst thing is that I live in Spain and I can't buy your lipstick in mac Spain, since that edition doesn't sell in Spain... please could you type the shade color of your lipstick so I can find one similar in spain :)
Sam you didn't even use Mac paint pot in a Mac sponsored video... things really are changing for you. But you still keep around the brush for concealer 😂😂
one of my favorite things about you, Sam, is that even when we are so zoomed in to just your one eye... we can totally still see the exact facial expressions and emotions that you're having with just that one eye
hannahxleigh Omg I thought it was just me that noticed😂
Hey you guys! Just wanted to reupload to fix the frame issue - hopefully this is better! YAY. CAN'T WAIT TO MEET SOME OF YOU TOMORROW!
Samantha Ravndahl THANK YOU SO MUCH YOU DIDNT HAVE TO
Samantha Ravndahl see you there!! So excited ❤️
This is much better Sam, the quality is fixed as well :) Worth a rewatch, I love hearing your story, its so inspirational! xo
You're so beautiful!
P.S. I run a beauty channel and have just uploaded a new vid! If you guys could check it out that would mean so much to me :)
Samantha Ravndahl omg Sam so much disrespect 🙃🙃🙃
It would not be a Samantha video if we didn't hear about the mac blush that got away
Marie L 😂😂😂😂😂
lmao Facts. I don't see why MAC doesn't change it back for her for a damn collab. lol
girl... I've been with you since the Reddit days. This is such an amazing accomplishment and you deserve this and all of the projects to come in the future!
Stephanie Mason Me too! Just bought the lipstick, so proud of her 😭
Stephanie Mason same here! r/MUA ate up the classic Sam looks 😍❤️️ (with good reason lol)
Sam is a real icon, actually achieving a long-standing dream is an accomplishment for anyone but at such a young age and with such a high-ranking company is so impressive!

So excited for you!! The lip color you came up with is so perfect!
I currently work for MAC in the UK and my interview was honestly the scariest thing i had ever done, the people interviewing me were like makeup gods in my eyes and finding out i got the job was probably the best feeling i have ever ever felt in my whole life and nothing has topped that so far... its crazy!!!! so for you Sam, this is so rewarding and you deserve it so much. Its right up my street, I NEED that lippie!
There's said to be a rumor every 6 moons Ssssamanthaa ravndahl uploads... The legend seems to be proven. (Lmao great vid!)
Nova's andMonsters - dude, she uploaded twice in one day! ;)

I have never been so happy to have friends in Canada.
Super proud of you girl, you've worked hard and you deserve it.
I live in northern Washington, I will be there tomorrow! I have to have that lipstick!
Thank you for finally being someone that actually talks about that issue with the Josie Maran foundation!

As someone who's been here since the beginning, the end of this video brought legit tears to my eyes, fuck.
Ahhh Sam I am so so happy for you!!! I feel like I've been following you for so long that this feels like an accomplishment for me as well haha. Your humbleness and honesty really inspires me, and if this industry ever works out for me, I only wish to remain as grounded as you are.

Sam, I am extremely happy for you! I have been watching you forever and it's amazing to see how much you've grown. You are an inspiration ❤️

I still have my warm soul in the old packaging........ literally dreading the day i hit pan on it
I purchased your Mac lippy online today, cannot wait to get it ! Keep it up, youre doing amazing 💗🙌
Yayyie so early! you're one of the most amazing artists! Love you ❤❤❤
I live in Winnipeg, MB and MAC always has the best artists to get your makeup done. Also, I love their Back to Mac recycle program! Love the GOT comparison!
Love this look! I cant wait to try your lipstick and the next to nothing!
😊❤️
I'm so so happy for you :) You really deserve this.
Your color looks amazing! ❤
MAC blushes and foundations break me out horribly, but gosh do I sure love their eye shadows and lipsticks!!!!
You should have 10 million followers. You are so talented and I enjoy your stories and enjoy all your videos.
I just found you on youtube less than half an hour ago. I am now bingewatching videos. The Game of Thrones reference just made you one of my faves 😂
How would you compare the new foundation to Mac face & body?
I find face a body gives a little more coverage than next to nothing. I also find that next to nothing lasts slightly longer than face and body :)
Thank you!
so excited 4 u girly!💋💋👠congrats 👑
I started off with MAC too - I was 19 years old and would buy a single eyeshadow or lip gloss each pay check. My first eyeshadow was pink lust and my first lip gloss was "prrr" because Paris Hilton mentioned it! haha!

Congratulations! so excited for you! glad to see video.. I don't get to watch periscope much anymore 😢😢

Your hair colour is so lovely! xx
This video makes me so dang happy for you!!!!! ❤️🤗❤️
What lip liner do you recommend to use with your lipstick? I bought it last week and absolutely love it!❤️
Your story is sooooo inspirational Sam!!! 💜💜💜💜💜
I love the eye look it compliments your hair color!💎
I wish I had known you in your Reddit days! But glad I came acrossbyiu a year or so ago. Congrats on the lipstick and keep on keepin' it real.

So happy for you! Congratulations!! Why is there no information about the lipstick?
omg you're so right about warm soul!! I tried it once and loved it and now i've bought 2 and neither are like the first one :(
Love your Mac story and your created lipstick!🌺
What camera do you use to get such great quality? I love how amazing your make up looks on screen.
Girl you know you came far when you have a stranger in your house washing your eyelashes lol I only watched a few of your videos and the video with that story me die laughing love your channel !
Plush lash was amazing!! I thought I was the only one who missed it...
I'm soo proud of you! I've recently moved to Canada so I can get the lipstick! 😁👌

Great vid! and your skins looking good Sam!
I feel the same way about the josie maran foundation :/
Back for a second watch, woo!! lol love you sam!!
I really like the lighter foundation on you. Nice job!
Don't think sam will ever get over that blush...
Sam you didn't even use Mac paint pot in a Mac sponsored video... things really are changing for you. But you still keep around the brush for concealer 😂😂
