LOVE you for sticking up for her! People definitely need to go and have a seat! This look is so soft and beautiful, perfect for school in my opinion! 💘
let me be real here this makeup is totally appropriate for school. This is 2014 girls cake up makeup in public school (no idea what jazz roles in private schools) - and me personally I was 14 when i started that winged out crazy eyeliner for school. Everyone's cool with it. And this tutorial shows something which I wear everyday to school. Like seriously everyday. This is perfect school! like come one Nikkie didn't show you how to do a full blown smokey eye for school. Just appreciate and respect the work. She offers many options throughout the video. Love you work doll!
I loved wearing makeup in high school, and I didn't care if people thought it was too much or whatever. As long as you're happy, who cares about what anyone else thinks?
***** that exact thing happened to me, i used to spend an hour and a half in the mornings before high school doing makeup and now at college I'm just like nopeee
I never wore a bunch of makeup in school. Just mascara, that's it. Then a couple years ago, at age 49 I started surfing and found a bunch of tutorials on makeup. I was hooked, I now have a collection that is almost embarrassing! Plus, love the way my eyes look so much bigger just by using makeup. Wish the internet was around back in the late 70's!
I'm 14 years old, and I love makeup! Except sometimes it makes me feel bad when I put the effort to wear makeup, and I get people telling me "you shouldn't wear makeup." Honestly though I may wear maybe "a lot of makeup" to the people I go to school with, but they don't understand. They don't understand that wearing makeup is a way for me to artistically express myself, and it gives me a little confident boost. Anyways your a true inspiration Nikki, by showing different ways to wear and express yourself with makeup. And because of your videos it motivates me to continue to practice and wear makeup! Thanks! ^.^
I'm 14 as well and I know how you feel. People shame me for wearing it so the next day I put extra effort in to annoy them. I hate it because some people shame me and then others tell me I'm beautiful and I just get confused. Nothing annoys me more than "you'd look so pretty with no makeup on 1!!!1!1"
Some people just don't understand that wearing makeup isn't always because you want to look good. Sometimes it just makes us feel good to have it on. People always tell me that I don't need it, I UNDERSTAND THAT I DONT 😂, but it just makes me happy to have it on.
I wonder if the people leaving comments about this being "too much makeup for school" would like it if someone walked up to them and told them "you wear way too little makeup - that's just not enough!". Same thing. If you don't like it - don't wear it - but please don't tell others what they should or should not be doing.
There is no such thing as "not enough make up". I only use a tiny (and I mean tiny) bit of concealer, mascara, and powder for an "everyday look". Sometimes just a tiny bit of eye liner and no mascara at all. If I go to church or some fancier event, I do wear some natural colored eye shadow, blush, bb cream, eye liner AND mascara. My mom said to work on making your real face beautiful. Make up just makes you have more and more yuckies if you don't deal with it properly. I just work on making my face as clear as possible without using make up to fix things. Yeah sure, if I have some spots, I'll dab on some extra stuff, but if it's not too bad, I do as less as possible. Everyone has their own opinions. No fights intended. Thank you and have a good day :)
Im 16 and I honestly LOVE wearing makeup, I wear as much makeup as I feel like wearing that day. I think you should be able to wear as much makeup as you want to school, who cares if you 16 or 23, be confident in yourself. Wear foundation, concealer,bronzer,blush,eyeshadow,eyeliner. Who cares! Do what you want to do and don't let anyone tell you anything different. Express yourself.
Love your channel!!! And extremely love the fact that you go in depth on what your doing and go step by step! So many don't do that and just apply their makeup thinking their audience know how to do it by just watching haha. But thank you! Love you!
Flawless! If I was still in school I'd wear this. I wish youtube tutorials were around when I was in high school. What people don't understand is that they don't have to take every single step from this, they can take what they like and feel is appropriate and do those steps and leave out the rest.
Thank you for making a back to school look that is actually suited for those of us who really love make up and having fun with it everyday! Could you do a video about your drugstore favourite products? A lot of younger viewers have a pretty strict budget for make up and it would be awesome knowing about stuff a professional recommends! I love your videos, you're my favourite youtuber and such a huge inspiration
Finally someone who does a glam makeup look for school! I don't understand how this is too much? It looks great! Personally I wear foundation, powder, eyeshadow, do my brows, blush, bronzer, highlighter, concealer and lipstick. I see no problem
Nikkie, when i was in highschool i was so quite and shy and sort of on the goth side, I was picked on badly for my size so i hid my face very often with my hair and dark dark makeup, watching your videos help me so much because now i'm out of my shell and i'm experimenting with makeup more. I'm a mother now myself and when my daughter is old enough to ware makeup i'm showing her your videos as references. Love your videos pleas never stop!
I loved this video! So many tutorials for school are so minimal and natural. Some of us have bad skin and can't get away with just powder! I love to put effort into my makeup like you said and make it look as good as possible. Xx
My everyday makeup for school is concealer, brows, classic bar eyeliner and a berry lipstick, or sometimes I switch up the classic bar for a little cat tail or a subtle panda smoked eyeliner. I'm 15, and I love makeup since I'm like, idk, 7 years old. My mom bought me a big kit with tons of eyeshadows, lip glosses, and that sort of things. I looked awful with all of that stuff on my face, I admit, lol, but I felt like a super model. With time, I got over it and made my life without it, and when I was like 12 or something, I began to watch UA-cam videos of MUA's like Michelle Phan, and now, I have like a year or so improving my makeup skills, and recently I decided to learn bodypainting, and I'm very good at it. I've always been told "You wear too much makeup" "You shouldn't be putting that on your face""Too young for that!" "It's showing your extremely low self esteem" "Women don't need makeup to be beautiful". Fuck that. I wear it because I like to transform myself into a lot of things without stop being who I am, and I have no problem when I'm bareface, no shame on that at all. And I truly think that women don't need makeup unless they like it, because it doesn't make you a better or worse person. My dream in life is to become a MUA or a writer, so don't come and say that wearing makeup lows your IQ or make you a superficial robot. I'm a feminist, also, and no one can tell me that I'm not just because I put some art on my face. Makeup washes out, shitty attitude don't.
Holy shiz that's my life story right there I started liking makeup when I was 7 too and my mom also bought me a huge makeup kit cause I liked it so much and I discovered and started obsessing over makeup and beauty gurus when I was 12

I'm so happy with how this look turned out! I tried it and got so many compliments on it! Thanks so much! You made my first day of the school the best!
All of your makeup looks always turn out absolutely flawless Nikkie! ♡ I personally would wear this look to uni! Its a perfect combination of nice & fresh, yet glamorous look! Xx
Absolutely love the look! Probably will try something like this tomorrow. I don't see how this is too much, but I guess it's because I've seen more at HS and in these past few years in college. I'm just glad I can get away with concealer and powder for oiliness after years of using foundation. It's all about preference.
Girl, your makeup is ON POINT! But, I was wondering if you could do a no-makeup makeup look? I know you don't usually do those but, I would love to see what you come up with :)
I love all your tips! I mean what you did with the soft wing in the crease color, like girl, that was brilliant. I can totally wear that to work! Love you!!!!!!!
Maybe because I live in Southern California and things are "different" here, but when I was in high school (2002-2006), AAALLLLLL the girls, myself included, wore TONS of makeup!! We wore everything! Schools did not restrict makeup. And now when I see girls in high school, they wear even MORE makeup than when I attended. They look like they're showing up to photo shoots and movie sets. So in my opinion, this is very typical high school makeup, I may go so far as to say, it's a little on the lighter side, but sooooooo gorgeous! Very nice, Nikki! When my little sister attends high school, I HOPE she'll wear something like this!
I absolutely loved the way you did this tutorial! I don't mean to say your other tutorials are boring (because they really aren't) but this one was so interesting, I love it when you talk more in your videos :)
I'm currently in high school, and I absolutely love this look! I think you look gorgeous! I really like when you do these types of looks, which aren't "no makeup" but which help girls who love makeup like me to enhance their natural beauty- I would love to see more like this! Xx
A wearable way to wear blue is to do a neutral look on the lids with browns etc and just wearing the blue on the lower lash line, you could do this with any bright colour :) it looks pretty if you get it right xx
I think this is appropriate for school (I'm only in 5th grade so not really for my grade) but for middle and high schoolers this is the perfect look and I'm so glad you made this video! I would probably do all of this without eyeliner and eyeshadow but everything else. So STOP HATING! THIS IS HER OPINION AND HER VIDEO. IF YOU DONT LIKE IT DONT WATCH. PRETTY SIMPLE RIGHT?!?!
I also ALWAYS do my eyeshadow different for school everyday haha some days theyre more natural some days ill put a color in it idk i just think makeup is fun & since my school allows makeup why not use it.
***** you are so incredibly talented. Although there are plenty of other beauty and specifically makeup gurus out there in the YT world, your talent and way of teaching, I think, far surpasses most. At your young age, you have no limitations as to what you can choose to do in your career! I just wanted to share this with you:-) Beautiful work, my girl.
people saying this too much for school LOL then what did you expect an eyeliner with blue eyeshadow and cherry red lipbalm tutorial from a skilled makeup artist? pls. if you dont like thick makeup then dont bash us girls who do
I love this tutorial! I usually go for the fastest and like most no-makeup makeup look, but I'm obsessed with this! I wear some BB cream, concealer if I've been up all night, curl my lashes apply some brown mascara, and maybe something on the lips usually Chapstick 😊
Wow, "baby" Nikkie haha. She looks so different here. Teeth, lips and even the shape of her face in some sort of weird way (cause, you can't change you shape duh haha).
Lol everyones commenting about how this is too much makeup for school but i wear about this much and i always get complements on my makeup, personally it's all preference, but you shouldn't judge people who choose to wear this much, makeup is an art form and I many people do it because they enjoy putting it on, myself included.
Nikki, I think you look fabulous as always 😄 and if "some" people don't like this look for back to school, then they can wear this look to something they find more appropriate or take bits and pieces from this look as inspiration. To each their own.
Oh my god do people not listen to the start of the video?! Nikki specifically said it's for people who like make up, she said it's definitely not a no make-up make-up look! You don't have to wear it for school it's just Nikki's interpretation let her be :) looks great anyways xxx
So simple and pretty. When school starts next school year for me I'm gonna watch this tutorial to now how to do a back to school look that's so pretty and simple and gorgeous like yours.
Love it!! I could sit and listen to you talk about makeup application for hours... Lol I think this was really great and informative for young girls who might not know all the steps to get a fresh face, I know I sure didn't at that age! (foundation waaaay too dark, too much eyeliner, no blending lol thank goodness I know more now!)
Hi Nikkie! The look is gorgeous but I think that you have used many expansive products, not accessible by anyone. I'd like you to do a look using drugstore makeup products! Xoxo Martina
I love wearing a lot of make up, but trust me, when you have to get up at 6 am, while outside it's still dark and freaking cold, struggling with highlighter and blending brush is the last thing you wanna do.. This is a very nice tutorial, but I think that a go to school make up should be more quick and simple
my 13 year old sister actually gets up 45 mins earlier than she has to in order to spend time on her make up and picking out her outfit. When I was in school I was all about the extra sleep. It really depends on the person.
On Thursdays I have an 8 AM (the commute is 1 hr 15 mins) class so in order for me to reach there 30 minutes early I wake up at 4 AM just so I can get ready x'D so yeah it depends on the person and their will power.
+Qween of the fall You're going to be just fine! I just finished sophmore year and I love makeup. Since i'm on a budget, my favorite cheap (But quality!) Brands are E.L.F and wet and wild for almost all of my face. And if you're also looking for any makeup pallets or more brushes, Morphe is an awesome brand that has very beautiful and pigmented eyeshadows :)
when I didn't had the money to buy all these high end products I loved to buy kiko, w7 (a brand that maked dupes for the most famous products), mabeline and l'oreal. the best drugstore fundations are def by l'oreal
Nikki is so damn gorgeous it should be illegal. I kind of wish there were more videos made with drugstore and accessible priced makeup though. I don't know alot of people who owned Mac products in high school and those sort of brands. I even now at 25 stick with drugstore brands. Gawd what a doll she is 💜 such flawless beauty
The amount of makeup that is normal to wear for school all depends on the country. In Norway it is perfectly normal to wear that much makeup for everyday routine;)
Dont know why people are complaining that this is too much for school. 1. Some schools allow more makeup than others and 2. You don't have to do your own makeup like this
most ppl think i know nothing about makeup but i know alot of tips like baking ,contouring,highlighting ect. yeah i get discrimintated by my age and ability i feel very ashamed to know about makeup and doing makeup i havnt told anybody accept my mom, sister,and a few of my friends i have been doing makeup for ten years
You are my favourite beauty guru because you don't use a load of drugstore products that you like less just to be seen as 'relateable'. You say it how it is and you're not afraid to swear like 98% of the other gurus. Thank you for making me smile :-)
I guess it's different for everyone. Some wear nothing, some wear tons. As I stated in the video, it's definitely a look for if you love applying makeup in the morning :) ♡
***** I actually love this so muuuch!!!! Back to School makeup vids are always so natural and i personally love makeup and go all out if i have the time (i usually wake up half hour earlier to do my makeup as well) Im in Med school and i take the time to do it,cuz i love it and puts me in a good mood, even when i haven't had that much sleep!!!! Keep up the good work girl, i love your videos. Blessings from the Dominican Republic. :)
To each their own! I would wear this makeup to school! It all depends on what you like, so I guess saying this is too much or too little is not really necessary as we all have different preferences! xx
wow! looking lovely as always, Nikki! Could you do a video where you do your whole makeup in 5 (or under 10) minutes? Like if you had to rush through the door which products/techniques would you use to look like you spent more time on doing your makeup while you actually didn't? Thanks, gorgeous!
i feel like i have a problem. ik powders make your foundation and concealer last but i swear as soon as i put any powder on my face it makes it look dry and just eww. idky..i moisturize my face always but it seems to be a constant struggle
This happens to me too ): it looks like the powder is just sitting on my face even after I brushed off the rest after baking.. I just put it right under my eyes and that's it until I figure out what's wrong
My opinion: this is too much for school. Just the simple stuff you need! Concealer, mascara, light shadow, lip gloss, maybe powder. But not all these highlighters and stuff, eyeliner on the waterline is also a little harsh for school. Well, any eyeliner!!! But this is good for a everyday look.
It's just the difference between speaking the two languages. She speaks English with Americans more than before so when speaking English she sounds more American. X
i broke mine too but thank god i had a clinique eye cream pot with nothing in just hanging in my desk, it fit all the concealer in it and its safe and sound!
This is a beautiful look! I don't think it's too much for high school. Shoot, I wore more than this when I was in high school. Keep doing what you're doing Nikkie!!
I wore way more makeup than this to high school haha! People need to chilllax - I think this is beautiful!
Thank you sweetie! ♡
Yep so did i, when i was in school it was like going through 1 eye liner a week haha! was awful.
I was about to say this! It looks natural and very cute! If you're not into wearing make up to school dont watch a tutorial of someone doing it 😊💜
LOVE you for sticking up for her! People definitely need to go and have a seat! This look is so soft and beautiful, perfect for school in my opinion! 💘
Yeah i like to wear foundation & fun eyeshadow cuz I enjoy doing my makeup not cuz I need to boost my confidence
let me be real here this makeup is totally appropriate for school.

Just be yourself and do whatever makes you happy. As long as it doesn't hurt anybody, go for it!!
I feel the same way
I'm 14 as well and I know how you feel. People shame me for wearing it so the next day I put extra effort in to annoy them. I hate it because some people shame me and then others tell me I'm beautiful and I just get confused. Nothing annoys me more than "you'd look so pretty with no makeup on 1!!!1!1"

I feel you girl
She said this is for people who LOVE wearing makeup to school.. not the people who wear minimal makeup because they're at school.
THANK YOU
That is the most flawless BB cream I've ever seen. 😍
I wonder if the people leaving comments about this being "too much makeup for school" would like it if someone walked up to them and told them "you wear way too little makeup - that's just not enough!". Same thing. If you don't like it - don't wear it - but please don't tell others what they should or should not be doing.
#preach
OMG this is gold
Yes girl. Yes.
OMG YAS girl

I can feel you hun! I wake up 1 hour early just to do my makeup, it's just makeup makes me happy and it's therapeutic ♥♥

You literally look like an angel.

I'm a mother now myself and when my daughter is old enough to ware makeup i'm showing her your videos as references. Love your videos pleas never stop!
I think Nikkie is mixing the highlighters because she just can't decide which one to wear because she love them all so much
OMG, Nikkie Liked this! *fangirling moment*
I loved this video! So many tutorials for school are so minimal and natural. Some of us have bad skin and can't get away with just powder! I love to put effort into my makeup like you said and make it look as good as possible. Xx

Makeup washes out, shitty attitude don't.
I superrrrr Get you.
OMFG YES
also you should start a body painting channel. you would get tons of subs!
Holy shiz that's my life story right there I started liking makeup when I was 7 too and my mom also bought me a huge makeup kit cause I liked it so much and I discovered and started obsessing over makeup and beauty gurus when I was 12

All of your makeup looks always turn out absolutely flawless Nikkie! ♡ I personally would wear this look to uni! Its a perfect combination of nice & fresh, yet glamorous look! Xx
Could you do a full face drugstore look like this? Always look so gorgeous!!
why are people saying it's too much makeup? if you personally dont want to wear as much or want to wear more just give or take away a few steps!!
Omg thank God someone agrees with me! Instead of complaining, they could jus take away a few steps
FAVORITE makeup tutorial by far!
Watching this in 2016... YOU WE'RE SLAYING BEFORE IT WAS COOL GIRL!!!
Absolutely love the look! Probably will try something like this tomorrow. I don't see how this is too much, but I guess it's because I've seen more at HS and in these past few years in college. I'm just glad I can get away with concealer and powder for oiliness after years of using foundation. It's all about preference.

I absolutely loved the way you did this tutorial! I don't mean to say your other tutorials are boring (because they really aren't) but this one was so interesting, I love it when you talk more in your videos :)
Pls do a "lazy back to school makeup tutorial"
YES! I NEED THIS 😂
OMG yas I need that
I don't know if she has the capacity to do that lmao
I'm currently in high school, and I absolutely love this look! I think you look gorgeous! I really like when you do these types of looks, which aren't "no makeup" but which help girls who love makeup like me to enhance their natural beauty- I would love to see more like this! Xx
could you do some looks with blue eyeshadow?? i have so many palettes that have blue eyeshadow in them and i never know what to do with them :(
Yes please!!!
A wearable way to wear blue is to do a neutral look on the lids with browns etc and just wearing the blue on the lower lash line, you could do this with any bright colour :) it looks pretty if you get it right xx
blue isn't natural and kinda over dramatic. if your a beginner don't wear them

that's the power of make up✌✌✌😘😘cheka
Leave her alone. It's a beautiful tutorial and she always teaches us something new each vid.
Lol everyones commenting about how this is too much makeup for school but i wear about this much and i always get complements on my makeup, personally it's all preference, but you shouldn't judge people who choose to wear this much, makeup is an art form and I many people do it because they enjoy putting it on, myself included.
Nikki, I think you look fabulous as always 😄 and if "some" people don't like this look for back to school, then they can wear this look to something they find more appropriate or take bits and pieces from this look as inspiration. To each their own.
Oh my god do people not listen to the start of the video?! Nikki specifically said it's for people who like make up, she said it's definitely not a no make-up make-up look! You don't have to wear it for school it's just Nikki's interpretation let her be :) looks great anyways xxx
Nikkie* woops
So simple and pretty. When school starts next school year for me I'm gonna watch this tutorial to now how to do a back to school look that's so pretty and simple and gorgeous like yours.
When her BB cream is better than your foundation😂🙃
truuuuuue😂😂😂
Love it!! I could sit and listen to you talk about makeup application for hours... Lol I think this was really great and informative for young girls who might not know all the steps to get a fresh face, I know I sure didn't at that age! (foundation waaaay too dark, too much eyeliner, no blending lol thank goodness I know more now!)
she looks so much nicer in this tutorial then she does now, why do ppl think you need gigantic lips to look beautiful?
Your makeup here looks so healthy and glowy I love it !
Hi Nikkie! The look is gorgeous but I think that you have used many expansive products, not accessible by anyone. I'd like you to do a look using drugstore makeup products!
Xoxo

PERFECT!!
I love wearing a lot of make up, but trust me, when you have to get up at 6 am, while outside it's still dark and freaking cold, struggling with highlighter and blending brush is the last thing you wanna do.. This is a very nice tutorial, but I think that a go to school make up should be more quick and simple
Guurrrlll, I was all about that life. All day, every day! 💪😅
my 13 year old sister actually gets up 45 mins earlier than she has to in order to spend time on her make up and picking out her outfit. When I was in school I was all about the extra sleep. It really depends on the person.
On Thursdays I have an 8 AM (the commute is 1 hr 15 mins) class so in order for me to reach there 30 minutes early I wake up at 4 AM just so I can get ready x'D so yeah it depends on the person and their will power.
Are you kidding me! My sister is 15 now and I still get upvotes for this comment...
I've had to wake up at 5 am for 4 years and some days I do were this much even when it's dark out and cold
Definitely rocking this for school tomorrow!
I noticed you have a bit of an accent (which I love!) What's your ethnicity?
***** She is from the Netherlands :)
+Mary Trancy wow really never knew interesting.
she is netherlands ;) ♡♥
+Mary Trancy White is her race not ethnicity dipshit
I think this is freaking gorgeous. You saved my morning routine. Thank you, Nikkie. Love you. ♥
I wish you did this with more affordable makeup because most people in school dont have mac products
She made a back to school makeup tutorial using only affordable makeup!
+Qween of the fall You're going to be just fine! I just finished sophmore year and I love makeup. Since i'm on a budget, my favorite cheap (But quality!) Brands are E.L.F and wet and wild for almost all of my face. And if you're also looking for any makeup pallets or more brushes, Morphe is an awesome brand that has very beautiful and pigmented eyeshadows :)
when I didn't had the money to buy all these high end products I loved to buy kiko, w7 (a brand that maked dupes for the most famous products), mabeline and l'oreal. the best drugstore fundations are def by l'oreal
I just found your channel and I am IN LOVE! We were absolutely the same way in school regarding make up!
before anyone complains about this being too much, realise you don't need to do ALL the steps!
Nikki is so damn gorgeous it should be illegal. I kind of wish there were more videos made with drugstore and accessible priced makeup though. I don't know alot of people who owned Mac products in high school and those sort of brands. I even now at 25 stick with drugstore brands. Gawd what a doll she is 💜 such flawless beauty
I also may be using this eye look for my wedding day Friday 😊
The amount of makeup that is normal to wear for school all depends on the country. In Norway it is perfectly normal to wear that much makeup for everyday routine;)
Nikki you are just tooo flawless! I just adore you!
Dont know why people are complaining that this is too much for school. 1. Some schools allow more makeup than others and 2. You don't have to do your own makeup like this
your blush is always on point
most ppl think i know nothing about makeup but i know alot of tips like baking ,contouring,highlighting ect. yeah i get discrimintated by my age and ability i feel very ashamed to know about makeup and doing makeup i havnt told anybody accept my mom, sister,and a few of my friends i have been doing makeup for ten years
Nikki! Please make a video about your must have brushes
And ur recommended brush for eyes, eyebrows , contour, concealer, foundation
If I walked in to school with a face as beat as hers, you'd see me walking out within 1.2 seconds.
I love your honesty. awesome video as always.
Everyone is saying this is too much for school. Pftt. It's all a matter of preference. You should see what I wear to school.
You are my favourite beauty guru because you don't use a load of drugstore products that you like less just to be seen as 'relateable'. You say it how it is and you're not afraid to swear like 98% of the other gurus. Thank you for making me smile :-)
The days before the beauty blender
I was thinking the same thing
lol ikr xD
ikr
Maddie Thomas The Days before A shit ton of highlighter.
Beautiful look!! You look stunning and glowy!! Would really love some more affordable looks on your channel xxx
I feel like this is more like makeup for work, rather than school makeup :-) It's pretty, but too much for school in my opinion.
I guess it's different for everyone. Some wear nothing, some wear tons. As I stated in the video, it's definitely a look for if you love applying makeup in the morning :) ♡
***** I actually love this so muuuch!!!! Back to School makeup vids are always so natural and i personally love makeup and go all out if i have the time (i usually wake up half hour earlier to do my makeup as well) Im in Med school and i take the time to do it,cuz i love it and puts me in a good mood, even when i haven't had that much sleep!!!! Keep up the good work girl, i love your videos. Blessings from the Dominican Republic. :)
This is the amount of makeup I use for school, and I think that's okay (:
As Nikkie said, it's all about personal preference :-) I would absolutely wear this look, just not to school.
To each their own! I would wear this makeup to school! It all depends on what you like, so I guess saying this is too much or too little is not really necessary as we all have different preferences! xx
ugh your hair is so pretty!!!
I wish more teen girls would wear this look to school. It seems they go a little too far with the black eyeliner these days.....
Gonna start the last year of high school...and I'll be definitely wear this awesome look! Thanks Nikkie, wonderful tut as always ♥
She looks sooooooooo young omg
Leeya Tomlinson she's only 20 here
This look is so beautiful! Your tutorials are always flawless. Makeup flawless. Nikkie flawless :D
i looooove her but i think its not that werable for school
It's all personal preference, darling ;) ♡
***** omg u answered!!!
Girl I wore waaaay more than this to scho, chill out
How is this not wearable for school? A school
For nuns yes.
I think so too
you look so good with light makeup nikkie
My home button must be broken because i'm still at school
wow! looking lovely as always, Nikki!
Could you do a video where you do your whole makeup in 5 (or under 10) minutes? Like if you had to rush through the door which products/techniques would you use to look like you spent more time on doing your makeup while you actually didn't?
Thanks, gorgeous!
she sounds so different then she does now
Beautiful job nikki. I'm long outta school, but I plan to wear this look for sure. I only wish your tutorials did exist when I was at school :)
i feel like i have a problem. ik powders make your foundation and concealer last but i swear as soon as i put any powder on my face it makes it look dry and just eww. idky..i moisturize my face always but it seems to be a constant struggle
what's your skin type? oily, combo, normal, dry?
This happens to me too ): it looks like the powder is just sitting on my face even after I brushed off the rest after baking.. I just put it right under my eyes and that's it until I figure out what's wrong
i have like normal to dry skinn i would say
Primer
if your skins fairly dry you don't have to use a powder to set foundation just like concealer but it depends on how dry
I love this video! Beautiful look I got excited to try it as soon as I saw it lol. Love your "natural" looks!!
My opinion: this is too much for school. Just the simple stuff you need! Concealer, mascara, light shadow, lip gloss, maybe powder. But not all these highlighters and stuff, eyeliner on the waterline is also a little harsh for school. Well, any eyeliner!!! But this is good for a everyday look.
Every day girls from 14-18 go to high school.. so...
I wish I had this video when I was in school! You look beautiful as always, Nikkie!!
why is her accent rather strong here than like today?
2 years passed and she lives in the us, so we can say she adapted
she still lives in the netherlands
I think it's just because she travels more.
It's just the difference between speaking the two languages. She speaks English with Americans more than before so when speaking English she sounds more American. X
Your thumbnails are so amazing!!!
I just smashed my Mac Concealer.. My life is over
Haha, I did the with the first one I got.. And then the second too :/ haha haven't bought a third yet!
I just got it two days ago and was like "OMG This is the best concealer ever!" Then it fell down. Didn't know they were made out of glass haha.. :(
the prolongwear is made of glass but I have dropped all the others with no issue, only prolongwear breaks :/ sorry for your loss :( it sucks
naw thanks.. :(
i broke mine too but thank god i had a clinique eye cream pot with nothing in just hanging in my desk, it fit all the concealer in it and its safe and sound!
This is a beautiful look! I don't think it's too much for high school. Shoot, I wore more than this when I was in high school. Keep doing what you're doing Nikkie!!
your so pretty it looks photoshopped
Exactly😂
uh I know!! She always looks so flawless
uh I know!! She always looks so flawless
You look sooo flawless!
can you use more drug store products?... love you Nikkie!
I watched every step of this tutorial but I still think there's magic involved O_O
You look different here
This was in 2014
