Most of the time I want to scream because they are boring, verbose and obviously all about the person in the video. You are amazing! I love the way you explain everything. You have a sense of humor and yes....you're a great makeup artist. Keep up the good work little sister!

    It’s insane that both eyes have the exact same lid shade, they look completely different in color family, tone, opacity, and shine. They don’t look like they could even be the same brand or caliber of quality at all. This just goes to show that putting in the effort to properly prep the eye, and taking the time to learn and understand the different uses for your tools is %100 worth it .

      Sign up for boxycharm. That's what I did. I threw out my cheap dollar store make up and it's $21 a month. I was in it for 3 months and got a ton of nice brushes and 3 eye shadow palettes, a contour kit, mascara. I do like elf make up brushes I get from dollar tree but the ones from boxy are high quality (like a $28 brush set) and it doesn't break the bank. I'll probably sign back up after the holidays. Also if you have a Ross Dress For Less, they often have great closeout make up that's normally more expensive. That's where I get my make up wipes for $3-4 a pack instead of the same price for crappy ones somewhere else.

    This was very helpful to me! I am in my 40’s and while I haven’t been doing all the “don’ts”, I have never broken the code on blending and getting the shadows right. I tried most of your suggestions today and wow! What a difference for me! For example, I have always used shadows primer and been disappointed with the results, but tried your suggestions today and its date night with the hubbie and my makeup is still going strong from this morning! So thank you from one of your older fans! 💕

      If you're doing a winged liner, hold a piece of paper (or anything with a straight edge) below where you want your winged liner to begin at a slant, and apply right above that. That has personally helped me. Also, apply as close to your upper lash-line as possible. For lower lash line eyeliner, make sure you apply on the water-line, not below.

      @tabithacbrown14 4 роки тому +6

      Buying quality makeup products are completely worth it to me. Even if I'm broke af I will save for quality products because there is such a difference. But I'm really into makeup and love to do full face makeup as much as I can. There are certain products you can find at a drugstore that give you the same or similar result but I for things like foundation, concealer, mascara, eyeliner and shadows I will pay for the brands with the best reviews that I know work for me. For example I never use drugstore foundation . I will gladly shell out 45 bucks for Estee Lauder Double Wear because it is the best foundation I've ever used and I can clearly see the difference. There is an amazing makeup setting spray I love by NYX and it's from a drugstore. I generally watch and read makeup reviews to see which drugstore brands can compare to the big names and try those.

    Thanks. I learned more from this than any other video. The brushes and transitioning of colors really makes all the difference! Your awesome and beautiful!

    I love it. The longer I watched, the funnier the "don't" side became. 😂 I laughed but I'm certain I do most of the don'ts... 😅

    I love your tutorial!!!! Can you do a tutorial of how to use Sephora Mystic Aura eyeshadow palette. Maybe including eye liner and lashes. I can’t find a tutorial anywhere. I’m a total newbie to eyeshadow etc. Well makeup in general 😂

    Can we just appreciate that she actually shows the texture on her face instead of just fully blurring it
