Thank you so much for this. I'd never heard of Crown brushes. I'll check them out. And yes, I too have some MAC brushes made in France that I bought in the early 90s in Toronto where MAC began. I paid alot for them like you did but I still use them today and they're still in perfect condition.
First and foremost. Thank you for such a comprehensive video! You did the homework for us who have no idea how to choose brushes for mature skin. You are a breath of fresh air and sunshine. I would love to be in your make up chair, but this is the next best thing! I appreciate your hard work. You truly are a wealth of knowledge. Placing a Crown order, they have quite a lot of kabuki brushes, can you recommend a few kabuki brushes. Again, thank you for such an informative video. Love your channel and YOU!
I could watch you every day. Love your energy and attitude. You should do a story time about a day in the life of working on set. I wish MAC still made some natural brushes.
Just now seeing this video and I needed it so much! I've never understood the reason for so many different styles of makeup brushes or if it really mattered. I'm 53 and it's never late or too old to learn! Thank you!
The tip to use the EcoTools brush for cream blush was worth the price of admission. I am really into cream blushes these days and have that brush - never thought to use it for that but I am going to try it! Thanks
LOL.. I just threw out about half of my brush collection and now I have a shopping list of what to add. There were a few in my collection I've never used and others I've had doubts about for a while now. Thank you so much for this concise tutorial!
I’m so glad I found your channel. I really enjoy your videos. I found the perfect old lady (53) concealer after watching your concealer video. I use the Catrice on drop concealer ( a little to dry) with the Tart Creasless ( too creamy ) when put over the other works perfect.
My IT some brushes are AMAZING! I’ve had them for so long and in love with them. Most my other stuff is cheap. Need to upgrade for sure! Love this video! Thanks!
Yes, I love my IT brushes too! Just build slowly over time! There are amazing brushes on the market. I love Bare Minerals brush, NARS, and Sigma, MAC, again, build overtime, there's no rush
This video was really informative! So helpful! Thank you! I love the Hello Beautiful above your mirror! What a great way to start your day! Really enjoying your content!!❤️❤️
thank you! they’re nice brushes, not top of the line but better than many at Ulta or drug store and so affordable! They also make brushes for other companies, private label
I love your videos I saw the video about watery eyes and I commented how I have the same problem u had so I made appointment with my doctor to get the drops and I can’t wait
I love make up I’m a make up addict I am not a UA-cam or but I have a make up room I have custom shelves custom everything for my make up for my skin care I do the 13th step skin care at night seven steps in the morning obsessed with my skin but I still do my make up like a 2030-year-olds and it works it looks amazing
Thank you for the tips on which brushes to use. Can you provide tips on how to clean make up brushes and how do we keep track of which brushes are ready for use and details. I usually am afraid of using brushes due to the fact that they need to be clean prior to use. I am also wary of using my fingers touching the make up as I don't want to contaminate the make up. Any tips will be appreciated.
I've done a Tiktok on washing brushes and an IGTV but I'm happy to do a quick You Tube on washing brushes as well. Great idea! Generally, if you are using makeup 5-7 days a week, wash eye brushes once a week and face brushes every other week! I need to follow my own advice, sometimes I go weeks! Accountability time! But on my PRO brushes for work, after every single use!!!
Another awesome video!! Thank you!! 😇😘 The slanted blush brush from Mecca I believe is number 170 but it’s $80 AUD, however, the similar version at Crown is $10AUD!! Bargain!!
Hi Michelle, so I went over to the Crown website, would you use these: C501 Pro Feather powder C504 Pro Angle bronzer for powder blush C545 Highlighter Fan C528 Pro crease detail
I have prayed for a UA-cam channel like yours. I found you on TikTok and followed you. What is your opinion on Paula Choice skincare? I have textured skin should I use a brush or a beauty blender? Thank you for teaching us over 40 beauties.
Thanks so much, Larissa! Paula’s choice has some great products and I used them years ago but fell away. They are actually sending me some so I’ll do a review soon! As for whether to use a brush, blender, or fingers, it’s up to the formula and method you prefer. Some products like serums, tints, really apply best with fingers, skin on skin, but some products look better patted in with a damp blender. Is the formula silicone based or water based? Are you on retinol? Because brushes can actually cause sloughing of skin and makes a flaky mess. It’s really a trial and error process.
I've tried them all too! I find most success with MAC Paint Pot in Painterly but some women just have oily eyelids and there is not much more you can do.
I think it’s important to use well made brushes. Unfortunately, all of the brushes that you’re showing are cheap. Try looking at Fude, so Hakuhodo, chikuhodo, Bisyodo, etc- that kind of stuff. I’m 50 years old and I contour and it looks freaking amazing. And I’m not overweight at all.
I’ve used Cinema Secrets for almost 20 years, it cleans, sanitizes and conditions brushes and they dry fast! But I also use shampoo and conditioner on my own personal brushes or when my PRO brushes need a deep cleaning
I am over 40 and don’t get me wrong I totally agree of what you’re saying less is more basically but I am over 40 and I am still doing my make up for glam fall concealer fall foundation eyeshadow eyeliner blush highlighter setting spray face powder setting powder exactly like I was doing in my 20s and 30s and my face still looks flawless I think it depends on your skin how well you age and how well your under eyes are the only problem Have is tearing from my eyes and I can’t stand it it ruins my eyeshadow it ruins my concealer I constantly have to fix it then I don’t like it and then I have to take it off and redo it and like I said from your last video I have an appointment with the doctor to get those prescription drops and I can’t wait to use them I’ve tried so many drops so many techniques ice on your eyelids powder primer ice taking off the oil‘s with blotting sheets nothing works all kinds of eyedrops and nothing works so I just can’t wait to use that eyedrops that you recommended that are prescribed but anyways yeah so I still do my make up like I did 20s and 30s and my skin is flawless
Trust me, I get all dolled up too still with ALL the products and lashes too! And yes, it definitely depends on skin, age, genetics, spf, but my face looked SO young until around 47 and that when I first really started seeing age and now that estrogen is leaving, the sag happens FAST, like overnight! Nothing prepares you for it! But at 47, most people thought I was late 30s.
@@maturemakeupmasterclass Yes I agree the same thing with me, it happened fast and not till I was in my late 40s😭 Suddenly my face looked weird in my usual makeup and I had to change everything! It is gutting but it does happen.
Ahhh so brilliant……dark brushes for dark shadows and light brushes for light colors! 😍 What a great tip. I’ll be sure to use it.
It somehow helps my brain! Thanks Julie for watching
Love your “Keep my Hustle Holy” in the background too! 🙌🏻

I love hearing that!!! The MAC brushes from the early 90s, made in France, were seriously my favorite brushes EVER!!!

Thanks for watching, Karen! I haven’t tried any kabuki from Crown but go PRO because it’s their top quality
I've had several brushes from Marshall Field's for years and honestly never knew that each served it's own unique purpose!! Thank you Michelle.
I could watch you every day. Love your energy and attitude. You should do a story time about a day in the life of working on set. I wish MAC still made some natural brushes.
Oh! MAC natural brushes were the best!!

Hi Michelle
How do I buy Seint Demi colour correction here in Australia please? The Seint website only ships within America and Canada.
I had to subscribe to your channel and now binge watching, but must take a break to clean my house then reward myself with your videos
Found the crown website & am amazed at the price point. Thankyou
Can you believe it??? They aren’t luxury but they’re very good and SO affordable!!
I love your videos I saw the video about watery eyes and I commented how I have the same problem u had so I made appointment with my doctor to get the drops and I can’t wait
I’m so glad I made this video, it seemed so boring but has already helped so many people

Hi. Where did you buy your makeup brush holder portfolios please?
Hello I’m so happy to be here really good tips for us mature ladies
Thanks, Kathy, I’m so glad you’re here!
What about cleaning and how too and how often?
Your skin is so pretty . Which French foundation are you wearing over your tinted moisturizer? Beautiful 🤩
Le Maq Pro!
Love your videos!!! You are so helpful!! What lipstick did you use?

I just realised the Crown brush is not from the “pro” range... which one would you recommend Michelle for regular blush (not cream blush) xx
Hi Michelle, so I went over to the Crown website, would you use these:
C501 Pro Feather powder
C504 Pro Angle bronzer for powder blush
C545 Highlighter Fan
C528 Pro crease detail
Love your content! 47 year old grandma here. Been enjoying your videos so much. What brush is best for stick foundations?
Thanks! for stick foundation I like a dense dome shaped brush
Great video, very informative.
Thanks so much for watching!
I would love to know the colors in your mob beauty kit that you are using , a beautiful combination! Thanks
I have SO many!!! I probably just need to do a new video

I have the It Cosmetics Airbrush Full-Coverage Complexion Brush- No77. Is the comparable to the foundation brushes you mentioned?
Probably! If IT says it’s airbrush and complexion, that is a good solid brush!!!
@@maturemakeupmasterclass great thank you!
I can't, for the life of me, get my hooded eye, eyeshadow NOT to crease... Used several primers... PLouise, NYX, UD, ETC.
I've tried them all too! I find most success with MAC Paint Pot in Painterly but some women just have oily eyelids and there is not much more you can do.
Can you share what colors you are wearing in this and your mob beauty colors in your palet? Looks amazing! Love your channel
Will do. Thanks!
I would love to know the Color’s you used as well!!

I’m 50 years old and I contour and it looks freaking amazing. And I’m not overweight at all.
How do you store you double ended brushes?
in a brush case but on their side, got one on amazon that zips
@@maturemakeupmasterclass Thanks.
What lip product and color are you using? Love it.
Thanks Diana for watching! This is the MOB Beauty lipstick in M58 with NYX lip liner in Sandstorm
Real techniques has very small buffing brushes - one is named Concealer brush, another Crease brush - both are very dense and affordable
Yes!!! I love Real Techniques and use many of them in my PRO kit! Thanks for sharing that!!!

I hate UA-cam guidelines, they are strict with someone like you, yet allow so much pornopgaphic material
Sadly that’s so true
