Relatively new subscriber and have to say love your refreshing and real approach to beauty. You are gorgeous and love your videos. Have been encouraging my 17 year old daughter to watch your videos for great tips and looks. Please keep them coming - maybe some summer casual day looks as well as party looks.

[@AlauraJade]

Oh thank you so much! That is the exact vibe I am trying to portray in my videos to be honest. I want people to feel comfortable in the beauty world. Asking questions, trying new looks and above all having fun with makeup! x

More dark lip and eye makeup tutorials and a video on Jeffree Star Liquid Velour Lipsticks.

[@AlauraJade]

What sort of dark eye looks would you like to see?

[@makeup4evaxo745]

Very informative video Alaura thank u.. i would love to see a video on skin undertones and finding the correct foundations to match xo

[@AlauraJade]

Amazing suggestion! Ill try and come up with a concept for this type of video! Im glad you found this informative! x

[@makeup4evaxo745]

Thanks keep up the good work xo look forward to watching them

[@ariplazanin2027]

Thank you for your reply, appreciate it so much. May I ask you a question on behalf of my daughter - 17 year old, fairly oily skin especially t-zone area, is a dancer so quite active. What foundation do you recommend for dance concerts - longevity, sweat proof and good for photos and videos. Thank you so much.....

[@AlauraJade]

Honestly the only foundations I have had enough contact with to be completely confident in recommending is M.A.C. I know confidently that M.A.C Studio Fix Fluid lasts all day and night on my own skin, if i use the correct primers. Same for all my freelance clients. For dancers being able to build up the coverage too is important and I'm confident studio fix would be more than enough. I Hope this helps x

[@ariplazanin2027]

Alaura Jade Thank you so much for your prompt reply and excellent advice. Really appreciate it...

[@ariplazanin2027]

Also can you recommend a drug store equivalent as an option. Thank you. Can't wait for your next video!!!!
