Only 2.31 minutes in, but I just wanna reflect on your comment about talking fast. English isn't my first language. But you and Sam had a huge huge part in my learning process. I learned all parts of the face and all makeup terminology from you guys, and so much more! I started watching 7 years ago with not bad, but not outstanding English knowledge, and now I have a degree in English studies and I am a translator. I can never thank you enough for helping me understand live speech and picking up many many new words. ♥︎♥︎♥︎
The amount of knowledge on makeup coming from these videos is priceless! It's not just sharing products and techniques, it is honest and open skill sharing! Really wonderful work and such a cultural treasure xoxo
Loved this makeup! So modern with a perfect balance of drama and freshness. Great tips with the foundation too. Your an exceptional makeup artist with such a pleasant personality. We are lucky to have you and Sam on UA-cam as you are real makeup artists. I’ve learnt so much from u both. Thank you xx
The Peaky Blinders is the best show on Netflix I’ve watched so far!! So many plot twists its amazing. And Cillian Murphy is in it and we all know he’s everything 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Merry Christmas Nic and Sam - Thank you for all your hard work this year, I've been a fan since your early days on here and I watch every. single. day - even videos I have seen plenty of times before. You've got me through my emotional problems, insomnia, stress over my PhD etc and I don't think you know how much people like me value you! I am a local (Norwich!!) and I always hope I can see you in the city so I can say thank you in person! I hope you have a lovely festive season and a happy new year with lots of joy and positivity! Love you both!
this is literally the first time ever i heard anyone acknowledge the fact that they have viewers whose first language maybe isn't english (including me) , so they could have a harder time watching the video, so nice of you to mention this! you look gorgeous as always, loved the video ❤
I thought I’d come back to this video to wish all of you a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR! You two are so much a part of my life, I can’t imagine not talking to on Christmas! Well, I suppose it’s all been said and done for you guys by this time of day. You’re about 6 or 7 hours ahead of us I guess. Anyway, I can just imagine all of your children, so happy this morning, the happiest day of the year. And, your hearts just burst watching them. They can be taught to not be materialistic later, let them have their fun today! lol! God bless you and all of your family! Greetings from a loyal fan all the way in Texas 🎄✨💖✨
+ pixiwoo oh good thing you said this I thought it was my phone!! by the small chance u read this, whats that nail polish? also, i love u ladies, great video as always!
Your skin is so beautiful and glowy! Honestly, you don't even need to wear face makeup. I worked for MAC for 3 years and I totally agree with what you've said, it really is a wonderful learning and growing experience for a makeup artist :) And all the senior artists would always talk about Hyper Real foundation and how MAC must bring it back! I love the Reflects glitters, especially Teal and Antique Gold!
I'm so pleased that you loved The Sinner, I've been obsessed with thriller shows as of late. My current favorites on Netflix are: Alias Grace, Dark (a German thriller), Broadchurch, and the Punisher. I also love the Handmaid's Tale on Hulu and Westworld on HBO and Game of Thrones and the Girlfriend Experience on Starz. Gosh so many!
I had a load of your brushes before Xmas but I got loads more today so now I have double of some so I can do better styles I love your brushes and will definitely get more over the next months hope you had a lovely day today with your families xx
I think it's so great that you still love makeup so much after all this time and all your experience. I get lost in doing mine too, I find it quite relaxing and it's a nice fun bit of self-care too. Merry Christmas to you!
Oh, Nic, you look just gorgeous! Your skin is truly flawless. And, I mean that; the term “flawless skin” is thrown about quite freely here on YT, but usually accurate enough, but, I mean, your skin, your face is Truly Flawless! You two girls are so fortunate to have gotten your beautiful mum’s genes! I hope all of your family have a very Happy Christmas, and make happy, unforgettable memories. I know there will be times that it will be difficult, but, you can know he would want you all to remember the happy loving times, and move along making new ones with those precious children of yours and Sam’s. Much love, from a fan in Texas. ✨💖✨🎄🎁⛪️☃️🎆
Nic, I tried your recommendations re: foundation... it's A.M.A.Z.I.N.G for oily skin! The finish looks just like skin an now has the lasting power I need. Thank you so much for sharing. I LOVE this look! xxx
Love this make-up Nic! I've got oily skin so i stay away from face & body, but with the pro longwear mix I'm going to give it a go. Also loving the J Lo vibes, My favourite look! Hope you Sam & all your family have a lovely Christmas! Thank you both for sharing all the make-up looks, tips & advice, but also for being genuine lovely, down to earth girls. xx
Nic....I love you and Sam so much. I know what you're saying about one brand. I worked for Lancome about 20 years ago and wore EVERYTHING from them, skin care and all. They had so many products that they no longer carry. I now have so many other products but I still use their Bi-Facil eye makeup remover. It's one of the best for waterproof and long wear eye makeup. That is where I learned how to apply make-up to customers and I love playing with different make up looks to this day even though I'm 51. My husband and I were at the Bobbi Brown counter at Saks this past weekend so I could get my Extra Moisturizing under eye cream. I didn't have a stitch of make-up on and the cute little young lady at the counter thought I was 45. I'll take 6 years younger than I really am any day.
AH! You should totally get into Dark! It's a German show on Netflix, and it's been described as somewhere between Stranger things and Black Mirror. Everyone I know is OBSESSED with it. It's such a good thriller with just the right amount of suspense and an absolutely incredible plot line. You'd love it, I feel
Love this look! I feel the same I used to work on the mac counter in Birmingham miss the socializing with the girls and getting tips and doing looks on the public also just watched sinner as well was brilliant! You look gorgeous love a good smokey eye!x
My god, you look stunning! Without question the best look of the season. In fact, I was thinking how wonderful you looked only halfway through, Nic!! Thanks for the helpful tips and explanations too. Merry Christmas to you, Sam and yours 🎄✨💓
Could you do a video explaining all the different types of glitter, especially for eyes and how to safely use them, and maybe a bit on lip glitters please x
I thought a "copper" shade would be wrong with this look, but it is stunning! ^_^ It's not thriller or anything like that, but you need to check out Outlander! One of the top series of all times, Scotland, adventure, romance, war etc. Sense8 I would also recommend, it's amazing. Have a happy holiday!! ♥
Good Behavior where Michelle Dockery plays a con artist, I binge watched both seasons over two days. I love this look on you and the dress. Happy Holidays! ❤️
I also loved "the sinner", now loving "the good fight" 😊 thank you so much for your interesting videos! Awesome! Merry Christmas and a Happy New year 🎄💝💞
LOVE IT! "You can't polish a turd, but you can put glitter on it." As a woman of a certain age, I tend to subtle makeup so I don't emphasize my wrinkles. But, every once in a while, I just have to put glitter on it. I'm on a rose gold kick lately. For Christmas, I'm using the Tarte rose gold liner and Stila rose gold eye shadow with my Duo Boots rose gold Texas ankle boots.
Dark is a new Netflix original show, it is amazing!! I also watched all of Mindhunters which was superb, and of course both seasons of Stranger Things. I highly recommend Dark, it lives up to its name but it's not scary, mostly mystery thriller. It's a German show so my twin and I just read the subtitles but you can change the audio to English if you prefer. Although I will say that there is something gratifying about reading the subtitles, plus you can hear their emotion, whereas you can't when it's subbed over.
So in love with this look! Off to MAC! The series, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, on amazon prime is very funny and set in the late 1950’s. Great hair and makeup. Not at all dark or scary but such a great show!
Never had a problem with speed, accent or audio. Merry xmas :-)

The Crown is a must see! The series is stunning and as an added plus Princess Margaret's makeup is gorgeous.
Loved this makeup! So modern with a perfect balance of drama and freshness. Great tips with the foundation too. Your an exceptional makeup artist with such a pleasant personality. We are lucky to have you and Sam on UA-cam as you are real makeup artists. I’ve learnt so much from u both. Thank you xx
Honestly, you're not only eloquent and classy in your speech and manner but with make-up. Absolutely lovely.
Thank you for putting MAC back on the map!
The Peaky Blinders is the best show on Netflix I’ve watched so far!! So many plot twists its amazing. And Cillian Murphy is in it and we all know he’s everything 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel on Amazon. Absolutely hilarious and completely wonderful, with to-die-for costumes. I cannot recommend it enough.
I just finished that. Loved it!
Agreed.

I’m 43 and have followed you girls from the beginning, and still love everything you do. Merry Christmas to you and your families.
Don’t put yourself down lady cause you’re fantastic! Absolutely stunning! 💕
The best series in 2017 was "dark" for me! It's a mystery, science fiction and drama series on Netflix. Really recommend!!!
That eyeshadow/liner made your eyes look soooo green! Very pretty!
I love this eye look on you!
I remember that you guys used to use this particular paint pot a lot back in the day. It reeeaaallllyyy suits you!
sorry if the volume is quite for some of you. xx
pixiwoo errr nope it’s perfect for me xxxx mwah
Dont worry Nic, ill gladly shush everyone in the house for your videos. Great look.
I'm gutted, I can't hear it at all as I am extremely hard of hearing :( but still watched because you're fantastic and wanted to see the process.
Can't hear it but will keep watching 😘
+ pixiwoo oh good thing you said this I thought it was my phone!! by the small chance u read this, whats that nail polish? also, i love u ladies, great video as always!
Wow! I think this is my favorite makeup look of the year. You look stunning, absolutely gorgeous.
Love it! It's amazing how the eye shadow color really made the color of your eyes "pop". Beautiful look.
That’s my go -to combo for foundation as well-it’s great for mature skin with dry patches as well!
*Thought I'd try this channel out as a few weeks ago my mum got me nearly all your brushes. I am in love*
The handmaid´s tale, best ever.
Hanna Haspe OMG yes!!
I tried your idea of mixing prolongwear concealer with the makeup base and I loved the look. Really amazing. Great tip. Thanks a bunch
Godless on Netflix is fantastic. Jeff Daniels plays one of the best villians that I have ever seen! And Michelle Dockery is brilliant in it too.
Your skin is so beautiful and glowy! Honestly, you don't even need to wear face makeup. I worked for MAC for 3 years and I totally agree with what you've said, it really is a wonderful learning and growing experience for a makeup artist :) And all the senior artists would always talk about Hyper Real foundation and how MAC must bring it back! I love the Reflects glitters, especially Teal and Antique Gold!
It is so great of you to acknowledge your non-english fans :) lots of love from Poland and Merry Christmas!
And I have recently circled back and rekindled my love and adoration for MAC products. I wear more and more...and by golly am I happy!
I'm so pleased that you loved The Sinner, I've been obsessed with thriller shows as of late. My current favorites on Netflix are: Alias Grace, Dark (a German thriller), Broadchurch, and the Punisher. I also love the Handmaid's Tale on Hulu and Westworld on HBO and Game of Thrones and the Girlfriend Experience on Starz. Gosh so many!
Think this might be my favourite look of yours ever! Gorgeous
I had a load of your brushes before Xmas but I got loads more today so now I have double of some so I can do better styles I love your brushes and will definitely get more over the next months hope you had a lovely day today with your families xx
Ooh i love this! Love using copper on my eyes, does make the green pop so nice.
absolutely in love with this makeup look, it makes your green eyes pop!!!!!
Just wrapped up The Crown ! Freaking loved it !!
Hoop earrings have always been my favourites. I just got a pair exactly like those.
Gorgeous! I have green eyes, too - I'll be digging out some copper next time I need to impress!
I have never used any highlighter other than my cream colour base since I started watching your videos 9 years ago :) nothing beats it!!
Watch Dark on Netflix, it’s in German but don’t let that put you off, stick on the subtitles and you’ll get lost in the story, so good!
I am going to start that next!!!
This look is the most beautiful look that you ever done so far. I loooooove this
The combo for your foundation looks amazing on you! And the overall makeup is gorgeous!💜
Cranberry and bronzed orange shades compliment your sea green eyes beautifully:)
I think it's so great that you still love makeup so much after all this time and all your experience. I get lost in doing mine too, I find it quite relaxing and it's a nice fun bit of self-care too. Merry Christmas to you!
IN LOVE WITH THIS LOOK😍 I might just have to buy all the products you just used! Stunning!!
The Sinner and Mindhunter were both soooo good! Watching River now (bit of an old one but super good!) - love the make up Nic! Merry Christmas x
Love the "one brand" complete look! Thanks x
Gorgeous eye look! Hush is my favourite highlighter too! It just always looks amazing.
I always used to mix that same concealer and foundation!! I have combo skin and it lasts beautifully
Merry Christmas !!! Love this coppery eye on you !Also STRANGER THINGS, it is so amazing !!
Oh, Nic, you look just gorgeous! Your skin is truly flawless. And, I mean that; the term “flawless skin” is thrown about quite freely here on YT, but usually accurate enough, but, I mean, your skin, your face is Truly Flawless! You two girls are so fortunate to have gotten your beautiful mum’s genes! I hope all of your family have a very Happy Christmas, and make happy, unforgettable memories.

Gorgeous look, the red tone in the glitter suits you so much! X
This is my absolute favourite! Love the colours and all the sparkle 😍😍
AH! You should totally get into Dark! It's a German show on Netflix, and it's been described as somewhere between Stranger things and Black Mirror. Everyone I know is OBSESSED with it.

Outlander on Starz is fantastic. It is a love story, but is based around Scottish and American history. It is absolutely FANTASTIC!!!!

Wow, You look so beautiful, before and after make up! Stunning colours for your eye colour xx
My god, you look stunning! Without question the best look of the season. In fact, I was thinking how wonderful you looked only halfway through, Nic!! Thanks for the helpful tips and explanations too. Merry Christmas to you, Sam and yours 🎄✨💓

Beautiful! For special events, do you practice what look you are going to do, or do you just go for it?
Could you do a video explaining all the different types of glitter, especially for eyes and how to safely use them, and maybe a bit on lip glitters please x
Black Mirror on Netflix is insane!! And they have the new season out at the end of the month
I thought a "copper" shade would be wrong with this look, but it is stunning! ^_^
It's not thriller or anything like that, but you need to check out Outlander! One of the top series of all times, Scotland, adventure, romance, war etc.
