COMMON SENSE: use what you can afford. She prefers the products she uses. Use what YOU prefer. No need to complain about how YOU don't like how SHE uses expensive products. I used to learn from these kind of tutorials when all i had was a Chinese brush set and a Chinese eyeshadow palette (that 120 palette, remember those?) and could still make great looks. Plus, there are plenty channels that show tutorials with affordable products and brushes. Just use what she does as a reference and make it your own. You could use a couple blending blushes and some drugstore makeup from Walmart and have fun. Do your research. Adapt your knowledge. Practice.
I can afford better, but still use what you said about the brushes. The difference is the amount of pigment you get. Even dept store make up can give you faint pigment. That eye requires you to build. Not slap it all on at once. What cracks me up is having clean brushes everyday. Like there is time for them to dry if you clean them at night, or you have time to clean them right away, before work or a party.
Maya Mia, you do apply shadows with surgical skill & the eye-shadow formula's are so illustrious whether they are pressed or. loose or creams( Not big on them)in trays or eye color tube & wand type some I like.Even after 40+years of x-dressing as ,makeup was my 1st love.yes even for some boys, I apply the stuff like a bricklayer and the canvas I paint is mere boot leather ,think steel toe and worn work boots,now how many girls can makeup an old boot into Cinderellas you know.As anyone can Mia you do it VERY well keep up the good workGOOD LUCK WITH YOUR NEW LINE OF MAKEUP MAYA MIA...I have a sweet neice of 8 or 9 named MiA. bye :-)
I agree. They say do eyes OR lips like how they say you should boobs OR legs not both. I think when you've a bold eye the bold lip is too much would look lovely with a nude lip. I like this tutorial though, she's beautiful eyes and seems like such a nice person.
Maya, you are naturally gorgeous, wondrously talented, and you have a very soothing voice. I am a beginner in the makeup world and I appreciate your videos!
So many brushes, so many shadows, so many powders and creams etc etc etc holy fuck, I'll never understand. I just wanna learn how to do make up for my prom.
Ended up looking like a raccoon no matter which tutorial I follow Update 2017 august 21: I finally did it. After a whole damn year. Not a racoon. Looks like I came out of the boxing ring with bruises on both eyes
thanks so much for a very through demonstration. I feel confident on how to make a smokey eye and applaud you on the prep work you showed before you start the task of the smokey eye transition. I've seen many video's on how to make a smoke eye, although they leave out the prep work which really helps the smokey eye stand out. Please keep it up and look forward to see how to make those glamorous cat eyes and lashes.
Very mysterious circumstances of Maya’s death. Official report is suicide. Only two people in the room at the time of her death. BF is a very wealthy man in South Africa 🇿🇦
I really loved this tutorial! Thank you for being so detailed and yet making it so easy at the same time! I look forward to your other videos! You are very beautiful!
the day i discovered that my eyes were considered "hooded"(something most people wouldve just known about themselves)everything changed & i realized that i didnt actually suck ass at doing eye makeup, i was just doing it the way i saw it in the tutorial.and since 80% of makeup tutorials i see on youtube feature women with the same general wide almond eye shape, i thought it was the only way. but im glad i have been able to find at lest a few makeup artist's channels that either have my eye shape or use different models for each video. now if i could find one that has the same eye shape AND skin tone, thatd be great. srry for the rant.
Not that I would know how you could improve, but I would love a 'get ready with me' type video, and also something showing where you live, what your hometown looks like, some insight into your daily life and personality. I think that would expand your UA-cam presence and endear people to you even more. We see and enjoy how incredibly talented and beautiful you are, (and your humility is so refreshing, the vanity and shallow nature of some 'beauty gurus' on here is so unattractive). There are plenty of beautiful people in the world, but not a lot of beauty with humility and appreciation. Good on ya ;-)
+Maya Mia - thank you for taking the time to make these tutorials. I appreciate you, and several other gifted make up artists, on you tube, for ministering to women, to help them feel beautiful, to feel good about themselves, & raise their self esteem.
For the girls saying they tried and wound up with a black eye or it wasn't flattering. Try doing it a teeny tiny bit higher. I have pronounced almost hooded crease and going barely above that is the make or break for a smokey eye. Also, go sparing with the black. I do a much tighter lower eye liner too so I don't look like a clown. I hope that helps someone. Loved this video Maya you are stunning.
Never been an eyeshadow girl it's hard, takes the right brushes and the right products to get it right. Although mine didn't come out dead on like hers, using my ecliptic brushes and my too faced palettes, I was able to execute a very cute Smokey eye that for one I thought eye shadow looked pretty on me! Haha love this video. Just what a newbie like me needed
How is it, that I can make a lifelike pencil drawing that's so realistic people think it's a photograph, but when I try this on my own face I turn out like a panda?
just read some of the comments below!!!...your voice and your accents are just fine!!!don't sweat it!!!!!I like it and it is more enjoyable from other youtubers who yell too much....I really enjoued every tutorial that I saw from you!!!keep up the good work!!!!...What you could do (for those who don't like your voice so much) is maybe introduce some background soft music
That look good on you because the color of your eye's, I couldn't pull this look off because the cold of my eye's. I think black eyeshadow only look good on girl's with pretty eye's.
always keep the darker shades below the crease, and neutral shades in it, and then a highlight on the brow bone. It might be because you brought the dark shades above or in your crease. just a thought, hope this helps 😊
JuliTay York Try using a powder to set! My favorite is MAC Mineralize Skin Finish in Medium Plus :) It's super light, doesn't cake on and gives you and super gorgeous airbrushed look.
thank you but we dont have MAC stuff in my country and importing (is it called like that) buying makeup related things is illegal here :/ and i havent seen MAC stuff which really sucks but anyways we have other product, maybe is because i havent really searched for it, anyways thank you for replying tho *****
Love the tutorial....really easy to follow. I sell Mary Kay and I'm a makeup artist. I was able to recreate this look with all the MK products! So cool!
"Its only $48" 😑 oh yea ill just go out side get it off my money tree and go get the makeup. Guh you act like its $5 i could see if it was actually $5 then you could say "its only"😂😂
It's sad that there are still people that feel makeup is only done by those who aren't happy with themselves. Makeup is a form of art. Art is a form of expression and it's fun to mess around with. Not everyone that wears it is insecure.
GIRL IM SORRY U LIVE IN AFRICA PREPARE FOR YOUR MIXED BABY U ARE FUCKING GORGEOUS My mom has puke green eyes like you and my dad is blackwith green eyes and mine are blue but oh u must drive the men there crazy wit ur eyes O_O
Men care about your brain, not your eye colour. If you are stupid who think that your eyes will get you to the best college or a job,then you are on the right track.lol
Ohh my glob!!! She gorgeous. She looks like Katey Perry alot. Who agrees?
Yea
Pshhh way better than katy perry. This woman is a goddesss omg her nose is so pretty
Lsp reference!!!!!
Khalida
Yeah I thought that too

Nichole Mayes
Nichole Mayes but sometimes it really depends on what product you use because it also has its own consistensy so
Well isn't it what she said at the end to use whatever products you want.
OMG I JUST LOVEEEEEE how eyeliner can change the whole eyeshadow look
RIGHT?!
Except she didn't show how to apply it.
I'm so happy she just used one palette and not 5 different ones

this looks good on most people... i am not one of those people who can rock this look.
But she puts a lot of makeup which can really change her
.
Your eyes are so beautiful i love this look but i think that a more nude lipstick would look better
yea i agree. or she could have used a lighter, more natural looking pink color. regardless, shes gorgeous
Evgenigs
I agree. They say do eyes OR lips like how they say you should boobs OR legs not both. I think when you've a bold eye the bold lip is too much would look lovely with a nude lip.
I like this tutorial though, she's beautiful eyes and seems like such a nice person.
Agreer! Her eyes are amazing with/without makeup tbh :) but a nude lip choice would totally perfect this look
You have a beautiful, natural face. Absolutely gorgeous with and without make up. Thank you for sharing.
Maya, you are naturally gorgeous, wondrously talented, and you have a very soothing voice. I am a beginner in the makeup world and I appreciate your videos!
So many brushes, so many shadows, so many powders and creams etc etc etc holy fuck, I'll never understand. I just wanna learn how to do make up for my prom.
I know right. Makeup is so confusing to me.
Peyton Raine and expensive
+Suk MaDiq Try looking up "Prom makeup" tutorials, I'm sure you'd find some simpler ones on them :)
lmaoo I used to think like that but now I understand why all those things are used
Lidia P. Saballos I'll learn eventually when the time comes
I tried but ended up looking like I had been punched in the eye 😂
sameee i cant do makeup for shit 😂😂😂
Bro same
That's so fuckin' relatablee 😂😂😂😂😂

Ended up looking like a raccoon no matter which tutorial I follow
Update 2017 august 21: I finally did it. After a whole damn year. Not a racoon. Looks like I came out of the boxing ring with bruises on both eyes

You make it look easy! You may be a makeup expert, but you're just as beautiful without anything on. That's rare.
Anyone else ticked off that this wasnt the look in the thumbnail?
agree _
Thank you!!
+Zoie Dre it is the one in the thumbnail
YES 😡
+Annalyse74 it is chill
Great tutorial. So pretty!
You remind me of Katy Perry with This look!
I have totally agree with you.... beautiful!
Khathiya Sydney
Diana Hernandez I was thinking the same .
Wow! This is a wonderful make up, i love the color of your eyes. You're beautiful.
It's just mamazing...... I've got no words to describe how much I loved it.
Your an incredible makeup artist with a very lovely voice :)
Wish my makeup looks as perfect as this ❤️
RIP Maya :( you were such a nice soul and a talent

you look like Katy Perry. You're beautiful :)
So pretty! Thanks for all the valuable information. Another fine job
This look is so pretty. It's very glamerous.
That eye look is amazing but the pink lips don't go with it at all for me
Laura McCarthy I think it will look good with a dark red or a dark purple
Caitlin Ginger was thinking the sAmmmmeeee
Laura McCarthy Usually with dramatic eyes, it looks better to do a soft lip color. And with dramatic lips, a softer eye look.
Laura McCarthy hayet 2016
I tried doing this but I ended up looking like a clown.
haha yes!! same 😂
hahahah me 2
+MissAllyLove hahah SAME HERE
I think it would make anyone look that way. less is more
+holistic79. Not everyone agrees. Some people like dramatic makeup, I am one of those people. I do it for myself.
Hey love your video and could you tell me what foundation you used. Thanks x
واوو
By far the best tutorial out there, I nailed it on my first try! Thank you so much!
Her voice is so relaxing, love the look too 👍🏼
you look like katy perry :O
yeah
Search for Emma Pickles she looks like katy..
fuck atyakz :@
Ikr. I was just about to say that
Hannah Collins maybe she is
she looks like Katy Perry
Omg I said the same thing lol
I thought I was the only one who thought that
yep she does, but her accent got me, so soft and pretty, I think I'm in love, lol
i was going to say that 😂😂
I'm
This look is gorgeous you created this look very effortlessly. TY
tried this tonight and I must say the other half loves it. thanks for your very informative video

Kassy Veronica

IP
What is that
+Destinee Ray yes u r right
I find you are great , with expensive or cheap products I'm sure you can create excellent looks, God Bless you
just read some of the comments below!!!...your voice and your accents are just fine!!!don't sweat it!!!!!I like it and it is more enjoyable from other youtubers who yell too much....I really enjoued every tutorial that I saw from you!!!keep up the good work!!!!...What you could do (for those who don't like your voice so much) is maybe introduce some background soft music
can you do some more alternative makeup tutorials
pretty on her
mine always looks like im a raccoon. 😫
That look good on you because the color of your eye's, I couldn't pull this look off because the cold of my eye's. I think black eyeshadow only look good on girl's with pretty eye's.
I swear your completion is beautiful 😊💚🙏🏻⭐️ lovely eyes
Oops I mean complexion
Really beautiful makeup . You looking soooo beautiful
I will like to watch shadows applications for brown skin, please
I tried doing this and I got a black eye
+Ashlee Ainsley you sound like you blended everything together. you have to blend lightly but enough to rid those harsh lines.
+JJam👌iah
always keep the darker shades below the crease, and neutral shades in it, and then a highlight on the brow bone. It might be because you brought the dark shades above or in your crease. just a thought, hope this helps 😊
+Natalee Spotswood , wjw
omg me too like i have been in a fight heheheh
😂😂😭😂😭 she said only $48 like that's a little bit of money for some colored chalked dust
right!
I'm already hesitant on buying 20+ dollar makeup 😂
10$ eyeshadow sucks and it never lasts long.
+A.L Crena I totally on know that, all good palettes are expensive
Honey Taylor 😡
Beautifully done. I love this tutorial. Very explanative and seems easy to do.
Very helpful video.
You explain perfectly
That's why I watch all your videos
Thank you
You are excelllent and beautiful
yes she excellent n beautiful
if it wasnt for all the pink i wouldve completely liked it :(
yea it doesn't go with the smokey eye
+Kimberly Ibarra I would've used like a dark purple berry colour.
Tara Nicole that berry color sounds pretty with this
I agree. Pink cheepens the smokey look.
I would have used red or nude to contrast with the dark colours
You look just like Katy perry
that's what I thought lol
ya
she looks like kate perry
I just tried this look and for my first time it came out pretty well. Thank you xoxo
I just love smokey eye make and you are looking so pretty ...
I think a softer lipstick would have paired better. Merci.

Yeah i have the 3$ Makeup from Wal-Mart because im classy asf 👌
Lol
Straight up katy Perry 👍
I LOVE YOUR UA-cam CHANNEL!!! KEEP IT UP!!! AND PLEASE😏😒IGNORE THOSE HATERS BECAUSE AIN'T NOBODY GOT TIME FOR THEM...
the way you put your eyeshadow on looks so easy. lol. I've really gotta learn how to do this. your make up is so beautiful.
honey I asked for a smokey eye tutorial and your doing your entire face
I know right lol
am I the only one that thinks she looks like Megan Fox?
yes.
+Juliet I was thinking she was Katy Perry...
Omg true she does look a bit like katy
Juliet Th I was about to comment that lol
Jocelyn Wise ✂️
only 48 dollars hahaha um .........
kayla johnson lol i was thinking the same thing
thats actually really cheap for 16 eyeshadows and 4 blushes
WoahYza and three lip glosses and a travel box packaged in a cute box
kayla johnson I thought the same thing hahah :)
I get my makeup at the dollar store lol. I agree with you... I think your just paying for the nice box it's in. Too rich for my blood....
Looks fantastic! You have a lot of space on your lids.I have to try how much I can do on my lids 😉.
The colour of your eyes is amazing!
I'm only 11 years old and watching 😂😂😂😂
Josey Smith im younger than u 😜😄✋👏
Josey Smith only one year older than u and watching
You are ont thé Only one😑😑😑😑😑😑☺
Wtf is with y'all I'm 21 and trying that! You guys should rather focus on playing with crayons or stuff instead of make up
maybe tutorials for people who are too poor to buy exspensive makeup
I have to admit that she looks a bit like Katy perry
I thought the very same!
+Pretty Diana (Aka Gricel) haha , I'm glad it's not just me! She does though! 😂
Aye! Im not the only one who thinks so!
Love this smokey eye look, awesome tutorial x
thanks for doing this step by step every one else does it really fast and you look so soooooooooooo soooooooo pretty
good work but too much pinky lipstick,i would wear nude one especially with smokey eyes..!
look, it's a great tutorial and all, but "it's *only* $48"?!!!!!!! that's like 14 days of babysitting
Alyssa Waddell you need to find a new job then if they're paying you $48 for 14 days girl
Hahaha omg so funny
She lost me at "ONLY $48!"
This was so so easy to follow. Thank you so much. Results were great.
Very helpful thank you and keep being a good person that you your honesty also shows in your work keep it up
It makes me laugh the fact that she blinks like 50 times at the end😂
I dont like highlighters, they make me look too greasy and shiny for my taste
JuliTay York Try using a powder to set! My favorite is MAC Mineralize Skin Finish in Medium Plus :) It's super light, doesn't cake on and gives you and super gorgeous airbrushed look.

Bile Bily ugh ppl like you get on my nerves✋
She looks like Katy Perry.
Yess that's what I was thinking throughout the video!
its sad how no girl can just wake up n be happy. what a world.
It's sad that there are still people that feel makeup is only done by those who aren't happy with themselves.
Makeup is a form of art. Art is a form of expression and it's fun to mess around with. Not everyone that wears it is insecure.
+Magnimazing exactly!!
+Magnimazing preach
You are so right!
@Magnimazing THANK YOU 💖
gorgeous girl. I really like her videos, we have a similar face shape so they work very well for me! Thank you!!!
