Honestly, I like your background, it's beautiful and comfortable. I personally avoid the u-tubers with the fancy editing and over the top backgrounds and personalities. I prefer people who are more relatable. Thank you Wayne, for being one of them.
Lisa Dee agreed. Its more authentic and less canned unlike most UA-camrs today. I honestly hate todays UA-cam videos. I miss the early days of videos to learn and laugh and enjoy and share tips and tricks without the entitlement and pettiness. Its why I stay watching Wayne and a few others who aren't fluffy and into the extra showy videos.
I love that you don’t change your background. I feel more like I am sitting with you in your house having a cup of tea and a chat. Don’t change. Your videos are wonderful just the way they are. ❤️
Ashley McGee Exactly! I can't relate to a youtuber that has a team of editors and some flashy background. No thanks! I will take Wayne's videos and chat any day over them! And I actually think his background is chic and stylish 💓
I hate that you always have to explain yourself. It breaks my heart. You're one of the most honest, kindhearted, beautiful people on YT and I appreciate you so so much. Just know that the majority (if not all) of your subscribers LOVE you and will always have your back. I would be lost without you and your no nonsense, no bullshit, quick to the point videos
I'm a silent viewer, but I decided to comment today. I applaud you for telling us stories from your past that may embarrass you and the way you took from them and made yourself become a better person. We all make mistakes throughout our lives, but few are willing to let it change them, let alone tell the story to the whole world. Thanks for being real, relatable and such a good role model in this crazy community
Wayne I honestly think it’s a double edged sword. For PR to only start sending you things at 3 million subs is crazy. I’m 41 years old and I can afford to buy whatever products I want to buy. And companies don’t gear their ad campaigns to my age group. They gear them to people who are young enough to be my children. Who do they think has to buy said product for that child? My point is simply this unfortunately due to age, gender, your honesty is why I personally think the PR bus was slow. I admire you for so many reasons. Being humble, honest and being able to admit your faults is what being a grown up is all about. I never put makeup on until about 3 years ago and your videos were the first I ever watched. What I think is lacking in the beauty community is basically the same things you touched upon. I can’t for the most part tell who’s being truthful. What the makeup actually looks like in real life and I have very few beauty influencers I can relate to. I wish you all the success you deserve. Thank you for being relatable and honest.
I just realized that Wayne has changed my whole look! I'm one of those people who made A LOT of makeup mistakes, which could be forgiven in my younger years. But now, I realize he's changed my techniques in my fifties, to the point that now, turning sixty, people constantly say I look like I'm ten and fifteen years younger. And I don't even use foundation most days! I'm a minimalist, but I just pay attention to my biggest flaws, with Wayne's help. Thanks, Wayne!
I never ever ever ever comment on videos. That said, I felt compelled to tell you that I have been following you for years. In fact, you are the only “beauty blogger” I follow for one simple reason. You seem truly genuine and honest. I have come to your channel for tips and you have not steered me wrong in your recommendations. I trust you. Please keep up the great work and remember that many of us who have better things to do with our time than post opinion are faithful viewers. Thank you for being you Wayne, you are lovely, exceptionally talented and a pleasure to learn from.
bevregester exactly. Put politely, some others with double digits millions do have talent, but are entertaining more than trusted sources. They’re using UA-cam for personal gain. Wayne is more educational and sharing a wealth of knowledge and experience and some much needed kindness. Personally, I prefer my tea ☕️ sipped with scones or biscuits than spilled 😉
Oh Wayne. I have been watching you since you sat at a desk with a wooden door and white walls in the background. And maybe even a desk lamp? ... I remember watching you and actually learning make up techniques that I could apply to my daily routine. I could feel the love and passion you had for shaping faces and enhancing the natural beauty that we all have. No fancy background, PR hauls or other stupid shit. It's been years since then and I still am subscribed, watch to the end, and learn. It's not about all the fluff and bull shit but the actual content and person who you are. I love you as a you tuber, a make up artist, and I respect you as a person.
I actually love your background, it’s like coming home. Your same setting is comforting to me. I love what you have to say. I love how you accept criticism and take a look at yourself and allow others to be right. Annnnd by the way! Love the blue on you! Thanks for being you.
And this is why I respect you, Wayne. You don't let the "fame" go to your head, and you stay grounded and worry about what's really important which is the long term and family.
I personally don't tune in for the background or the editing.....I watch because I like your tips and what you have to say. I'd probably still watch if you filmed on a box in your closet wearing pajamas or whatever ,but that's just me. And your brushes are the shit!!! Well brush....ive only been able to afford one so far but i plan on getting more 💗
Jessica Russell lol I just got 2 in the mail today. I now have a grand total of 3! At this rate, I’ll be dead 💀 before I complete the set. I’m buying the eye brushes first, don’t even know how I’ll afford the big face brushes. The struggle....😂
I have the #18 eye brush , got my eye on the #14 cheek brush and the fan brush next. Honestly I was hoping the #18 would suck so I wouldn't want any more of his brushes but its FABULOUS and I'm hooked!!
Your raw honesty and humility are so refreshing and inspiring! Please don't ever change I watch your videos because you have great makeup knowledge and are a genuine person with a great sense of humor ... unless someone wants to buy me a house omg I love it lol!!! Btw that blue looks smashing on you!
You said so many truths. Your background doesn’t matter it’s the content of your video. I always love that your videos are quick and to the point. It’s also so true that the ones that can’t afford everything are the ones that are given it for free.
Part of the enjoyment of YT is to be able to create, edit and upload your own videos. If we are all going to get professional editors, then it will just become online Hollywood and it will lose the personal touch and relatability. I love that you have kept your background as it gives a sense of constancy and familiarity when everything else seems to be changing around us. Don' t stop being you. You have 3M plus people who have welcomed you into their lives, and is for a reason. The 10 individuals that email you their lack of joy and misery are only worth being ignored.
I didn't think I could adore you more, but I do! To have someone answer, point out their own missteps, and be able to laugh at themselves is HUGE! This is what keeps you grounded, approachable, and keeping people tuned in to YOU! You're not "more of the same", nor are you constantly trying to sell something. Please keep doing what you do. Background...so? Fancy editing...who needs it? You sir are different and we need different! 💞
I love how right to the point your videos are. Even though you are a big channel. You are so humble and relatable. I think many of us appreciate it. Love your videos! Xoxo, Dawn
Dawn's Life, over 40 I agreed with your comment and read your username. It sounded like a channel name so I checked you out and I'm a new subscriber of yours. I'm actually a little but over 50 but finding more mature good youtubers is rare. So I'm glad I found you!
Isn't the point the of UA-cam for you to video yourself!? Why do people think it's about having a team of editors and backdrops! I love what you do but you be TRUE TO YOU!
I bloody love your background! I am so in love the mirror behind you it reminds me of the death star in Star Wars. I always wonder what's on the other side of the doors, purely beacause I'm nosey, haha.
Peeriefairy me too!!! I wish I could see what's beyond the doors. Remember the time Wayne filmed from his bathtub? I thought I was going to have a heart attack lol.
That's interesting Rachael! I've been watching Wayne's videos for at least two years religiously and I haven't seen anything like that. There are so many videos it could take me ages to find it, especially if it doesn't say what it contains in the title. Oh well, I guess it will remain a mystery for me... Thanks for replying to me, though.
Why is anyone so concerned about your background? LOL This is funny AF to think of. I watch you for your content. It is short and sweet, honest and to the point and raw. I like you for you not the background makeup or anything else. I just wanted to put in my personal two cents on this. Though now I need to add a nickle as pennies are no longer circulating in Canada. LOL
I absolutely adore you and your being real. When I watch a video, i do not care about the backdrop. I am there for that person, their input, the product or whatever they are doing. Thank you for being real ❤️
"Why you don't change the background?" Everybody has a background blablabla.. He is not everybody else, he is our Wayne, and we love just the way he is people...
I wish other you tubers would follow your lead. You seem to have integrity and honesty of heart. Don't change a thing. I think your background is lovely and honestly.. I have never even looked what you have in the background until this video. That's not why I watch.
You are so HUMBLE and REAL. CONTENT is more important then backgrounds. I always wonder what’s outside the window on the right . That blue looks great on you !! Please DON’T CHANGE!!!
My daughter and I found your videos several years ago on the same day but separately! It was the strangest occurrence but a happy one. Your tips and reviews cross the generations and are appreciated, always.
Wayne this is one of the many reasons why I love what you do! You are so real and down to earth. Btw I also love that you don’t change your background. Your videos are about the actual subject of the video and you don’t distract us by changing everything all the damn time
Wayne, your background and videos are so welcoming. It feels like we are all sitting on the couch chatting and it's so refreshing that you are not trying to be Instafamous and some social media celeb. Don't change anything about your videos. They are straight to the point, professional and still fun and we learn so much with your delivery style.
You're the reason why I'm getting into makeup. So inspiring and real. Not may artists take responsibility for their actions. To me this shows how professional and humble you are. Thank you Wayne :)
Your videos aren't about what's going on in the background, WTH? LOL! It says a bit about the person commenting with their, "everyone else is doing it" remark. People who are secure in themselves and what they're doing don't see a need to compare themselves to others.
Out of all the depth of content in this 6 mins, all the shallow people comment 'I love your background'. Wayne your self-exploration in the public eye has been really humbling and it's a privilege to witness such growth. You are a diamond in a world of cubic zirconia. 😉
I did not realize you do everything yourself. I had an inkling last year when you actually replied to my comment. I was shocked. I did not expect "The Wayne Goss" to reply to me. My esteem for you has grown. Keep doing this, please. -signed- a fan.
You know Wayne...I thank you for being yourself and being honest about your hopes and dreams and being concerned about your mom and your retirement. Things that we all can relate too. It shows you are human...thank you. xoxo patti 🎀
I've been watching you for years, I never noticed the background...nor the editing. I just really appreciate how open and straight to the point you are.
Do NOT CHANGE. You are the comfort that everything has been and will be ok on UA-cam. The top influensters need to go away and we need to knock it down about 10 steps. Thank you Wayne.
I normally don't comment on videos but I watch a lot and have for years. You guys have all helped me find myself again in my late thirties (as far as my look). Just want to say thank you for sharing your expertise all these years! You are one of my favs and I think of you often when I am doing my makeup... I will think, "I am doing this technique because Wayne Goss showed us years ago how to make our pores appear smaller!" You make a beautiful difference! Love Always!
Wayne I just adore you and think you are one of the most stand-up people on UA-cam. I love watching your videos and learning from you. THANK YOU for not turning into an entitled sell-out, I come to your page to learn and smile, which I do every time. So keep doing what you're doing, you are amazing!
I will always love you, Wayne! You're among the few genuine people on here. It definitely takes a lot to admit your regrets so publicly and I love that you are always grounding us to be better.
What a breath of fresh air you are! If we could all be so humble, honest, relatable...what a world we would be!!!! I feel you have an amazing group of subscribers who genuinely love you and want to learn from you. We are here for you, not your background! Please never change Wayne! We love you!
I have been following you Wayne, for quite a long time (as in YEARS). Your background, clothing, lighting, angle, editing, or any other bullshit has never once crossed my mind. I have learned more from you about makeup and application than I have ANY other youtuber’s I follow combined. It is your skill ( and that adorable wink) that is invaluable and I thank you a million times over for sharing it FOR FREE to your viewers. If anyone is here for the “fluff”, they chose the wrong channel.
I started watching your videos seven years ago when I used to live in Beijing (yes, I had a VPN so I could bypass the Chinese firewall that blocked YT, FB, Twitter, etc) and your YT channel was my little place of escape from the craziness of work/chaos of China lol. I have continued to watch your videos even after moving back to Canada a few years ago and it's comforting to see that background! I, for one, am glad you haven't changed it! What's more significant, though, is the fact you're still just as humble, down-to-earth and relatable as you used to be. A lot of YT beauty personalities make sudden changes when they start raking in the views/subscribers and that, as some of the comments from viewers make evident, has alienated a lot of viewers who see that as selling out, being fake, etc. I appreciate that you have remained true to your purpose of being on YT and never forget where you came from. I learn so much from your channel and I hope you continue to share videos with us (and enjoy making them!)
I love how you haven't changed anything. Your so honest and sincere. Your the most talented makeup artist yet your so incredibly humble. I love all of your videos and I've learned so much. Thanks for sharing your personal stories as well.
It is obnoxious for anyone to criticize you, your background, etc. You take your time to put together and release great, insightful and entertaining videos that not one of us pays to watch. If people don't like the videos, then just don't watch, simple. I personally appreciate your time, experience and humor. Love your videos, thank you.
Wayne, I absolutely LOVE your videos. They are to the point and I don’t have time nor do I want to watch 20-30 minute videos. I love how you show techniques to help us.
Your honesty about the past and humility make me want to put you on my "Definitely continue to watch" list. We all make mistakes, and sharing what we have learned allows others to rethink their own approach to life. Thank you for helping those of us (totally me) who need a reminder about how integrity, in these times of consumerism and instant gratification, will take us further in making our journey more meaningful. ❤
I love your background...never change it. Your channel is about you, makeup, makeup application, style, etc., not about a silly thing like your background. Stay as nice as you are Wayne. Your viewers, including me, love you for who you are, and just the way you are.
I watch your videos for the honest information you give, either a product review or an application tip. You are very talented and skilled at what you do. Your mom must bee so proud of you. Tongue-in-cheek response to your background... make a big deal about changing the flowers on the accent table. Some people have nothing better to do. Hugs Cathy
I love this channel because you’re real - thoughtful, introspective, aware of things around you and outside your bubble - and you genuinely seem to have a good soul. There’s plenty of beauty channels with slick editing and ultra chic backgrounds. You keep doing you.
I watch because of your information, techniques & your personality. Your home is beautiful. Good job for standing strong. Not yielding to every hot blast blowing through. But still having fun & picking out the keepers. :) I love the old & the new.
I am SUPER late to the game but I saw your new palette release and thought it was beautiful so I looked into your channel, which then led me here.... And this this upload is what made me hit the subscribe button. I'm just another person, but one who appreciates listening to a genuine person. Thanks for being real. Even (or maybe even especially) several years later it was refreshing to watch
I had been subscribed to you for ages. Every now and again I notice that I have been unsubscribed. It is weird. No matter, I stay subscribed to you for 2 simple reasons. You are real. And your heart. It shines. Thank you.
I totally love how you come across, you seem like a genuine real guy!! I have always enjoyed your videos, I don’t open your videos to see your backdrop lol i could care less I watch to hear what you have to say!!! Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
I love your authentic videos. I get so tired of the gurus who cannot relate to the average people that watch their videos. I also wanted to tell you that I received 2 of your makeup brushes for Christmas and I am so amazed at the difference they make with makeup application. I really didn't think that brushes made that much of a difference, but boy, was I wrong. I will be purchasing a few more this year. Thank you for videos with content that is helpful to a wide spectrum of people.
I’m not even really into makeup. I hate wearing it, but sometimes I like watching people put it on or talk about it. But I watch your videos because you’re genuinely a great person. You’re intelligent, well spoken, extremely talented, hard working , funny and even a tad handsome:) I watch you because you are real. There are people who watch you that get you. I appreciate your openness.
please NEVER change your background! Love it as it is! :))) This is my way of saying, I couldn't freaking care less about your background! And regarding the youtubers that make a good living out of this and forget about how lucky they are... Only hours ago a very popular female youtuber (millions of followers) posted a video called something like "$3,000 of makeup tutorial". And although I do like to watch high-end stuff and learn more about what there is make-up and skin care wise in the world, I was seriously disgusted by the fact that the same youtuber regularly complains in her videos about NOT being on some company's PR lists, hence not getting more stuff for free... I was so disgusted that I left my opinion in the comments and unsubscribed. Why? Because I hate it when people forget to be thankful and lose their head when success hits them. Most of her followers will never be able to afford the stuff she gets for free and yet she regularly finds time and place to complain about the fact that some companies don't shower her with gifts... A big no-no for me.
5Heliotrope I watched that one today as well. I usually skip these types of videos from her and others like her. There is high-end (my high-end is $20 mascara to $50 palettes) and her high-end, which is absolutely outrageous. $200 setting spray? Never could I get that and I think it's a waste of money. If I had money for that kind of stuff I would probably donate food or clothes to shelters, etc.
5Heliotrope I too watched that today and remembered her complaining in a video about companies not sending her free stuff & emails she had received from companies. She dedicated a lot of time to bash these companies & made it clear who they were in future videos. I left a comment mentioning that a real MUA like Wayne goss still has to buy everything themselves whilst she was getting a new house, free holidays a new Porsche a big wedding a room make over by the same company as Jeffree starr for free. She has a producer, editor & director & that comment was removed repeatedly from her page. It seems she didn't want people knowing the truth behind her 'success' it makes me sick that level of being detached from reality & her humble beginnings & she gives nothing to charity, shelters or even her viewers. She inboxed & just throws hundreds of pounds of make up aside as if it were rubbish without barely a thank you, it makes me sick that entitlement level. She also had 446 likes when only 8 people had viewed the video, that made me very suspicious & I too unsubscribed, it was the icing on the cake for me.
5Heliotrope I hate the videos she makes showing her wardrobe and calling out the designer names. They just scream “look at me, I’m rich!” She used to be more humble, don’t know what happened.
“Who are you wearing?” “I’m wearing Primark I payed for it myself”, Bloody Awesome and yes that would be a great day. I’ve always said you never sold your soul here on UA-cam you’ve always stayed true to yourself and viewers, to be honest I wish you made the kind of money some of the other beauty gurus do because you deserve much more recognition and free stuff because of your honesty. You would think companies would want people like you promoting their makeup knowing your honesty is valuable to your viewers. If you say it’s good then we can always trust that it is. You have reviewed a LOT of makeup brands over the years and I have perched some of them because I trust you and having used them I’ve never regretted buying them. You are a fabulous person Wayne, I only wish it was in our hands to promote you speaking about the product with the utmost respect and passion. If there is a way let us know, love you handsome great big hug 🤗 Margaret 😘 Xx
dear Wayne, for me as a makeup artist, you are my biggest "beauty guru". i don't care about background, about editing, for me it is all about what you say to us. your tips and tricks are most useful. love you soooo much, and don't change!
You are so real so truthful. I thank you for your honesty and thruth. My the Lord that I served bless your heart.my he guide you and protect you. God first in everything. Love you sincerely Jackie from NYC
I LOVE that you’re real and authentic and that you haven’t changed your background. I love that you do everything else for your videos and that you don’t give a crap what anyone says! Xoxo
Why do people worry about things like this anyway? Some people (narcissists) need to get a life and leave others alone! Your videos and background are great and like you I could care less! Most of us watch you to learn what you are teaching! Keep up the great work!!!!
The point of watching you isn't your background but it's done in good taste without taking away from your message. Thank you for your time Wayne & please don't change. We appreciate you as you are! 😊
Powerful video. I’m quite new to the whole UA-cam community and I’ve come to realize that a LOT of the people I started watching and enjoying were hyping products they were getting paid to hype. I feel like I’m watching a 20 min commercial when I go back and look at them. Just found your channel tonight...all the way from Dallas and love your honesty and realness. Can’t wait to try some new tips in the am.
You are one of the most genuine, straightforward, no bullshit, professional people on UA-cam. I absolutely love and respect you beyond words. Keep doing exactly what you’re doing, it’s you. 😘😘😘❤️
Once again you are keepin it real! Thank you. I guess if you have no life and UA-cam is your only entertainment you will get hung up on things like background. Me, I am here for the reviews and tips that I can really use on my aging wrinkly skin. I rely on short to the point videos. I love your style so please continue to be you and speak your truth. Love you Wayne.
It takes a lot of courage and humility to share what you have shared. I watch your videos for the beauty education you provide. Thank you for being honest and real. ♡
Your videos are so relaxed- they are quick, informative, a bit of sarcasm and humour thrown in for good measure. I am sure many do not even take notice of what is in the background! There is no need to be like everyone else when what you are doing currently is working just fine :)
You set a great example of how to strive to be a better person. Your personal growth of character has been most inspirational! Best of luck of your continued journey! You are just a pleasure!!
I love your channel! You're such a nice, honest, and humble person please don't ever change and don't let negative people get to you. Love the background because I feel as if you're welcoming us into your home.
I love how down-to-earth you are in your videos, and the fact that you don't change your whole house and lifestyle in order to "show" how ballin your life is, or how successfull you are. i love that you use your money sensibly (like on your mum or saving for your retirement). Please keeping doing videos on make up tutorials and reviews... that's what I watch for. And your videos may not be the slickest (although i've never noticed), but i don't need background soundtrack or slick transitions to learn how to apply make up better, i just need you to show me how. Keep doing you Wayne, cause it's 100% awesome.
You're fabulous as you are!! I think you're a super person who has ethics and honor and you give a psychic boost to us all out here in virtual land. Thank you for your candor and sharing.
I appreciate you so much. I love that you want to buy your mum a house. I could care less about your back ground. I watch you because you are knowledgeable and honest...and I love the way you wink at the end of your videos. You keep being you. The world needs more people like you.
Please don’t change a thing! You do a beautiful job with an industry that is insanely competitive and ever-changing. You bring REAL advice and REAL knowledge to those of us who want to learn whether for personal or professional reasons. I think your platform is on-point, raw and unpolished for all the right reasons. You clearly are very passionate about what you do and have an incredibly generous soul. I am very grateful to learn from each and every one of your videos and whether someone attacks you professionally or personally I think you just need to keep doing you and stay the beautiful person you are. Thnx for spreading your knowledge and the message that beauty is in everyone.
Honestly, I like your background, it's beautiful and comfortable. I personally avoid the u-tubers with the fancy editing and over the top backgrounds and personalities. I prefer people who are more relatable. Thank you Wayne, for being one of them.
YEAH im confused why people dont like it?
Lisa Dee agreed. Its more authentic and less canned unlike most UA-camrs today. I honestly hate todays UA-cam videos. I miss the early days of videos to learn and laugh and enjoy and share tips and tricks without the entitlement and pettiness. Its why I stay watching Wayne and a few others who aren't fluffy and into the extra showy videos.
Lisa Dee totally agree.
His background is so personable too. Like we're just chilling in the room with him.
AGREED! When my favorites get huge and become un-relatable while I’m happy for them that’s when I unfollow.
I love that you don’t change your background. I feel more like I am sitting with you in your house having a cup of tea and a chat. Don’t change. Your videos are wonderful just the way they are. ❤️
Ashley McGee Exactly! I can't relate to a youtuber that has a team of editors and some flashy background. No thanks! I will take Wayne's videos and chat any day over them! And I actually think his background is chic and stylish 💓
Ashley M tea ☕️ and biscuits 🍪 whilst chatting with Wayne 💗
I hate that you always have to explain yourself. It breaks my heart. You're one of the most honest, kindhearted, beautiful people on YT and I appreciate you so so much. Just know that the majority (if not all) of your subscribers LOVE you and will always have your back. I would be lost without you and your no nonsense, no bullshit, quick to the point videos

Very well said!! I totally agree!
Shelitha Fedrick Thank you very much
I just realized that Wayne has changed my whole look! I'm one of those people who made A LOT of makeup mistakes, which could be forgiven in my younger years. But now, I realize he's changed my techniques in my fifties, to the point that now, turning sixty, people constantly say I look like I'm ten and fifteen years younger.

I love your videos just the way the are. Do not change!!!
You're a wise man!

Oh Wayne. I have been watching you since you sat at a desk with a wooden door and white walls in the background. And maybe even a desk lamp? ... I remember watching you and actually learning make up techniques that I could apply to my daily routine. I could feel the love and passion you had for shaping faces and enhancing the natural beauty that we all have. No fancy background, PR hauls or other stupid shit. It's been years since then and I still am subscribed, watch to the end, and learn. It's not about all the fluff and bull shit but the actual content and person who you are. I love you as a you tuber, a make up artist, and I respect you as a person.
I actually love your background, it’s like coming home. Your same setting is comforting to me. I love what you have to say. I love how you accept criticism and take a look at yourself and allow others to be right. Annnnd by the way! Love the blue on you! Thanks for being you.
I hope you are not beating yourself up because you shouldn't. You are great We love you
Hundredacredaycare
Here here!!!!
(Claps and walks away)
Never change! I love the way you wink at the end of each and every video!
Me too & the wave at the beginning! He is the best!!!
You are so real and humble!!! 💜💜
Tara Ball agreed.
Hilary Lawhon why not just thumbs up, instead of have to say agreed...lol
And this is why I respect you, Wayne. You don't let the "fame" go to your head, and you stay grounded and worry about what's really important which is the long term and family.
I personally don't tune in for the background or the editing.....I watch because I like your tips and what you have to say. I'd probably still watch if you filmed on a box in your closet wearing pajamas or whatever ,but that's just me. And your brushes are the shit!!! Well brush....ive only been able to afford one so far but i plan on getting more 💗
Jessica Russell lol I just got 2 in the mail today. I now have a grand total of 3! At this rate, I’ll be dead 💀 before I complete the set. I’m buying the eye brushes first, don’t even know how I’ll afford the big face brushes. The struggle....😂
I have the #18 eye brush , got my eye on the #14 cheek brush and the fan brush next. Honestly I was hoping the #18 would suck so I wouldn't want any more of his brushes but its FABULOUS and I'm hooked!!
Jessica Russell 🤦🏼♀️ oh no, now I’ve gotta have me one of those big boys! Do I eat or do I want to buy make up brush… I think eating is overrated. 😂
Your raw honesty and humility are so refreshing and inspiring! Please don't ever change I watch your videos because you have great makeup knowledge and are a genuine person with a great sense of humor ... unless someone wants to buy me a house omg I love it lol!!! Btw that blue looks smashing on you!
Your honesty is so refreshing in a world of fake youtubers
You said so many truths. Your background doesn’t matter it’s the content of your video. I always love that your videos are quick and to the point. It’s also so true that the ones that can’t afford everything are the ones that are given it for free.
Part of the enjoyment of YT is to be able to create, edit and upload your own videos. If we are all going to get professional editors, then it will just become online Hollywood and it will lose the personal touch and relatability. I love that you have kept your background as it gives a sense of constancy and familiarity when everything else seems to be changing around us. Don' t stop being you. You have 3M plus people who have welcomed you into their lives, and is for a reason. The 10 individuals that email you their lack of joy and misery are only worth being ignored.
Couldn't agree more
I didn't think I could adore you more, but I do! To have someone answer, point out their own missteps, and be able to laugh at themselves is HUGE! This is what keeps you grounded, approachable, and keeping people tuned in to YOU! You're not "more of the same", nor are you constantly trying to sell something. Please keep doing what you do. Background...so? Fancy editing...who needs it? You sir are different and we need different! 💞
I love how right to the point your videos are. Even though you are a big channel. You are so humble and relatable. I think many of us appreciate it. Love your videos!
Xoxo,
Dawn
Dawn's Life, over 40 I agreed with your comment and read your username. It sounded like a channel name so I checked you out and I'm a new subscriber of yours. I'm actually a little but over 50 but finding more mature good youtubers is rare. So I'm glad I found you!
Thank you!! I appreciate that. I’m pretty knew at youtube. I’m looking forward to getting to know you!!
XO,
Dawn
I’m 49, so closer to 50 than 40😊💞
Love ❤️ all you’re videos! I honestly could care less about backgrounds. You’re awesome 👏. Thanks 🙏 for your honesty.
Nairoby Garcia your*
Isn't the point the of UA-cam for you to video yourself!? Why do people think it's about having a team of editors and backdrops! I love what you do but you be TRUE TO YOU!
I love your videos and your background. I love your authenticity.
I bloody love your background! I am so in love the mirror behind you it reminds me of the death star in Star Wars. I always wonder what's on the other side of the doors, purely beacause I'm nosey, haha.
Peeriefairy me too!!! I wish I could see what's beyond the doors. Remember the time Wayne filmed from his bathtub? I thought I was going to have a heart attack lol.
He actually did a video that told us what was behind each of them at one stage! It wasnt toooo long ago. Max 1 year if you wanna go watch it x
That's interesting Rachael! I've been watching Wayne's videos for at least two years religiously and I haven't seen anything like that. There are so many videos it could take me ages to find it, especially if it doesn't say what it contains in the title. Oh well, I guess it will remain a mystery for me... Thanks for replying to me, though.
Please just continue just like this! This is who you are - one of the very few genuine UA-camrs!
I love the background!!
Poor man. Just ignore such people. You are awesome always!!!
I love that mirror so much at leat Wayne keeps his background real and simple not distracting except that dam mirror I want one
What a beautiful person. I am grateful to have found your channel. Plus, you have helped me so much with make-up. God Bless!!
Why is anyone so concerned about your background? LOL This is funny AF to think of. I watch you for your content. It is short and sweet, honest and to the point and raw. I like you for you not the background makeup or anything else. I just wanted to put in my personal two cents on this. Though now I need to add a nickle as pennies are no longer circulating in Canada. LOL
I love your honesty and your down to earth quality.
I watch your videos NOT for the editing nor the background. I watch for YOU and your honesty! Much love for you from Southern California. 💕💗
Yes! Wayne is doing a great job with the content of his videos and his sense of humor is a plus
I absolutely adore you and your being real. When I watch a video, i do not care about the backdrop. I am there for that person, their input, the product or whatever they are doing. Thank you for being real ❤️
"Why you don't change the background?" Everybody has a background blablabla..
He is not everybody else, he is our Wayne, and we love just the way he is people...
Your house looks great. I can't think of a better background. You being genuine shows what true beauty is all about. Thank you for all your work.
I wish other you tubers would follow your lead. You seem to have integrity and honesty of heart. Don't change a thing. I think your background is lovely and honestly.. I have never even looked what you have in the background until this video. That's not why I watch.
You are so HUMBLE and REAL. CONTENT is more important then backgrounds. I always wonder what’s outside the window on the right . That blue looks great on you !!
Please DON’T CHANGE!!!
My daughter and I found your videos several years ago on the same day but separately! It was the strangest occurrence but a happy one. Your tips and reviews cross the generations and are appreciated, always.
I don't watch you for your background, I watch you for your content and what you have to share of substance!!! Love you Wayne
Wayne, you are the most sensible person on UA-cam, and I feel that you are so kind and genuine. I love you and your brushes!
Wayne this is one of the many reasons why I love what you do! You are so real and down to earth. Btw I also love that you don’t change your background. Your videos are about the actual subject of the video and you don’t distract us by changing everything all the damn time
Wayne, your background and videos are so welcoming. It feels like we are all sitting on the couch chatting and it's so refreshing that you are not trying to be Instafamous and some social media celeb. Don't change anything about your videos. They are straight to the point, professional and still fun and we learn so much with your delivery style.
You're the reason why I'm getting into makeup. So inspiring and real. Not may artists take responsibility for their actions. To me this shows how professional and humble you are. Thank you Wayne :)
Your videos aren't about what's going on in the background, WTH? LOL! It says a bit about the person commenting with their, "everyone else is doing it" remark. People who are secure in themselves and what they're doing don't see a need to compare themselves to others.
I agree. I'm watching to increase my skills. If I want to see a background, I'll watch a movie...
I just love your honesty!! You are you, and I watch you because you’re amazing as you are.....
Out of all the depth of content in this 6 mins, all the shallow people comment 'I love your background'. Wayne your self-exploration in the public eye has been really humbling and it's a privilege to witness such growth. You are a diamond in a world of cubic zirconia. 😉
I did not realize you do everything yourself. I had an inkling last year when you actually replied to my comment. I was shocked. I did not expect "The Wayne Goss" to reply to me. My esteem for you has grown. Keep doing this, please. -signed- a fan.
You know Wayne...I thank you for being yourself and being honest about your hopes and dreams and being concerned about your mom and your retirement. Things that we all can relate too. It shows you are human...thank you. xoxo patti 🎀
I've been watching you for years, I never noticed the background...nor the editing. I just really appreciate how open and straight to the point you are.
Do NOT CHANGE. You are the comfort that everything has been and will be ok on UA-cam. The top influensters need to go away and we need to knock it down about 10 steps. Thank you Wayne.
I normally don't comment on videos but I watch a lot and have for years. You guys have all helped me find myself again in my late thirties (as far as my look). Just want to say thank you for sharing your expertise all these years! You are one of my favs and I think of you often when I am doing my makeup... I will think, "I am doing this technique because Wayne Goss showed us years ago how to make our pores appear smaller!" You make a beautiful difference! Love Always!
Wayne I just adore you and think you are one of the most stand-up people on UA-cam. I love watching your videos and learning from you. THANK YOU for not turning into an entitled sell-out, I come to your page to learn and smile, which I do every time. So keep doing what you're doing, you are amazing!
I will always love you, Wayne! You're among the few genuine people on here. It definitely takes a lot to admit your regrets so publicly and I love that you are always grounding us to be better.
Have no regrets Wayne, it has all brought you to the point you are at now ! X
What a breath of fresh air you are! If we could all be so humble, honest, relatable...what a world we would be!!!! I feel you have an amazing group of subscribers who genuinely love you and want to learn from you. We are here for you, not your background! Please never change Wayne! We love you!
God I love ❤️ you Wayne...so refreshing!
I have been following you Wayne, for quite a long time (as in YEARS). Your background, clothing, lighting, angle, editing, or any other bullshit has never once crossed my mind. I have learned more from you about makeup and application than I have ANY other youtuber’s I follow combined. It is your skill ( and that adorable wink) that is invaluable and I thank you a million times over for sharing it FOR FREE to your viewers. If anyone is here for the “fluff”, they chose the wrong channel.
I started watching your videos seven years ago when I used to live in Beijing (yes, I had a VPN so I could bypass the Chinese firewall that blocked YT, FB, Twitter, etc) and your YT channel was my little place of escape from the craziness of work/chaos of China lol. I have continued to watch your videos even after moving back to Canada a few years ago and it's comforting to see that background! I, for one, am glad you haven't changed it! What's more significant, though, is the fact you're still just as humble, down-to-earth and relatable as you used to be. A lot of YT beauty personalities make sudden changes when they start raking in the views/subscribers and that, as some of the comments from viewers make evident, has alienated a lot of viewers who see that as selling out, being fake, etc. I appreciate that you have remained true to your purpose of being on YT and never forget where you came from. I learn so much from your channel and I hope you continue to share videos with us (and enjoy making them!)
I love how you haven't changed anything. Your so honest and sincere. Your the most talented makeup artist yet your so incredibly humble. I love all of your videos and I've learned so much. Thanks for sharing your personal stories as well.
It is obnoxious for anyone to criticize you, your background, etc. You take your time to put together and release great, insightful and entertaining videos that not one of us pays to watch. If people don't like the videos, then just don't watch, simple. I personally appreciate your time, experience and humor. Love your videos, thank you.
Wayne, I absolutely LOVE your videos. They are to the point and I don’t have time nor do I want to watch 20-30 minute videos. I love how you show techniques to help us.
I love your honesty and straight-shooting style. Owning up to past mistakes is never easy. You are the best!
Your honesty about the past and humility make me want to put you on my "Definitely continue to watch" list. We all make mistakes, and sharing what we have learned allows others to rethink their own approach to life. Thank you for helping those of us (totally me) who need a reminder about how integrity, in these times of consumerism and instant gratification, will take us further in making our journey more meaningful. ❤
Never commented ever on anything at anytime...but you inspire my heart. Don't change your anything unless you feel inspired to do it for you!!
I love your background...never change it. Your channel is about you, makeup, makeup application, style, etc., not about a silly thing like your background. Stay as nice as you are Wayne. Your viewers, including me, love you for who you are, and just the way you are.
I watch your videos for the honest information you give, either a product review or an application tip. You are very talented and skilled at what you do. Your mom must bee so proud of you. Tongue-in-cheek response to your background... make a big deal about changing the flowers on the accent table. Some people have nothing better to do. Hugs Cathy
I love this channel because you’re real - thoughtful, introspective, aware of things around you and outside your bubble - and you genuinely seem to have a good soul. There’s plenty of beauty channels with slick editing and ultra chic backgrounds. You keep doing you.
I watch because of your information, techniques & your personality. Your home is beautiful. Good job for standing strong. Not yielding to every hot blast blowing through. But still having fun & picking out the keepers. :) I love the old & the new.
I am SUPER late to the game but I saw your new palette release and thought it was beautiful so I looked into your channel, which then led me here.... And this this upload is what made me hit the subscribe button. I'm just another person, but one who appreciates listening to a genuine person. Thanks for being real. Even (or maybe even especially) several years later it was refreshing to watch
Wayne your honesty blows em away. I wish we could all self-reflect like you do.
Omg!! As if people are whining about your backdrop and editing. You are amazing as you are and one of the most authentic kind people ever!
The complaints about your editing and background are just ridiculous.
Some people just like complaining. Personally I like Wayne's background and capitals
I had been subscribed to you for ages. Every now and again I notice that I have been unsubscribed. It is weird. No matter, I stay subscribed to you for 2 simple reasons. You are real. And your heart. It shines. Thank you.
I totally love how you come across, you seem like a genuine real guy!! I have always enjoyed your videos, I don’t open your videos to see your backdrop lol i could care less I watch to hear what you have to say!!!
Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
I love your authentic videos. I get so tired of the gurus who cannot relate to the average people that watch their videos. I also wanted to tell you that I received 2 of your makeup brushes for Christmas and I am so amazed at the difference they make with makeup application. I really didn't think that brushes made that much of a difference, but boy, was I wrong. I will be purchasing a few more this year. Thank you for videos with content that is helpful to a wide spectrum of people.
Your honesty is refreshing. I get the sense that you are a truly kind, honest and humble person. I appreciate you more than you know. 😊
I’m not even really into makeup. I hate wearing it, but sometimes I like watching people put it on or talk about it. But I watch your videos because you’re genuinely a great person. You’re intelligent, well spoken, extremely talented, hard working , funny and even a tad handsome:) I watch you because you are real. There are people who watch you that get you. I appreciate your openness.
We watch your video to listen to you not to see the change of the background it's really doesn't matter .. you're a humble man we love as you are
please NEVER change your background! Love it as it is! :))) This is my way of saying, I couldn't freaking care less about your background! And regarding the youtubers that make a good living out of this and forget about how lucky they are... Only hours ago a very popular female youtuber (millions of followers) posted a video called something like "$3,000 of makeup tutorial". And although I do like to watch high-end stuff and learn more about what there is make-up and skin care wise in the world, I was seriously disgusted by the fact that the same youtuber regularly complains in her videos about NOT being on some company's PR lists, hence not getting more stuff for free... I was so disgusted that I left my opinion in the comments and unsubscribed. Why? Because I hate it when people forget to be thankful and lose their head when success hits them. Most of her followers will never be able to afford the stuff she gets for free and yet she regularly finds time and place to complain about the fact that some companies don't shower her with gifts... A big no-no for me.
5Heliotrope I watched that one today as well. I usually skip these types of videos from her and others like her. There is high-end (my high-end is $20 mascara to $50 palettes) and her high-end, which is absolutely outrageous. $200 setting spray? Never could I get that and I think it's a waste of money. If I had money for that kind of stuff I would probably donate food or clothes to shelters, etc.
The video you referenced was in my recommended bar on the side of this comment, just thought that was a funny coincidence. Doubt I'll watch it
5Heliotrope I too watched that today and remembered her complaining in a video about companies not sending her free stuff & emails she had received from companies. She dedicated a lot of time to bash these companies & made it clear who they were in future videos. I left a comment mentioning that a real MUA like Wayne goss still has to buy everything themselves whilst she was getting a new house, free holidays a new Porsche a big wedding a room make over by the same company as Jeffree starr for free. She has a producer, editor & director & that comment was removed repeatedly from her page. It seems she didn't want people knowing the truth behind her 'success' it makes me sick that level of being detached from reality & her humble beginnings & she gives nothing to charity, shelters or even her viewers. She inboxed & just throws hundreds of pounds of make up aside as if it were rubbish without barely a thank you, it makes me sick that entitlement level. She also had 446 likes when only 8 people had viewed the video, that made me very suspicious & I too unsubscribed, it was the icing on the cake for me.
5Heliotrope I unsubscribed from her too, I can’t stand her really anymore. Also, she supported Jeffrey and his products, which I think are crap 💩.
5Heliotrope I hate the videos she makes showing her wardrobe and calling out the designer names. They just scream “look at me, I’m rich!” She used to be more humble, don’t know what happened.
Love your background. Love your honesty. We’ve all made mistakes in life no ones perfect. Your Mum must be so proud of you Wayne!
“Who are you wearing?” “I’m wearing Primark I payed for it myself”, Bloody Awesome and yes that would be a great day. I’ve always said you never sold your soul here on UA-cam you’ve always stayed true to yourself and viewers, to be honest I wish you made the kind of money some of the other beauty gurus do because you deserve much more recognition and free stuff because of your honesty. You would think companies would want people like you promoting their makeup knowing your honesty is valuable to your viewers. If you say it’s good then we can always trust that it is. You have reviewed a LOT of makeup brands over the years and I have perched some of them because I trust you and having used them I’ve never regretted buying them. You are a fabulous person Wayne, I only wish it was in our hands to promote you speaking about the product with the utmost respect and passion. If there is a way let us know, love you handsome great big hug 🤗 Margaret 😘 Xx
dear Wayne, for me as a makeup artist, you are my biggest "beauty guru". i don't care about background, about editing, for me it is all about what you say to us. your tips and tricks are most useful. love you soooo much, and don't change!
You are so real so truthful. I thank you for your honesty and thruth. My the Lord that I served bless your heart.my he guide you and protect you. God first in everything. Love you sincerely Jackie from NYC
I LOVE that you’re real and authentic and that you haven’t changed your background. I love that you do everything else for your videos and that you don’t give a crap what anyone says! Xoxo
Why do people worry about things like this anyway? Some people (narcissists) need to get a life and leave others alone! Your videos and background are great and like you I could care less! Most of us watch you to learn what you are teaching! Keep up the great work!!!!
The point of watching you isn't your background but it's done in good taste without taking away from your message. Thank you for your time Wayne & please don't change. We appreciate you as you are! 😊
You are brilliant and I think your spot on. I'm a huge supporter of your brand, because of your honesty. Thank you.
I love your honesty and how you bring that honesty to your viewers! Keep up the excellent work
Powerful video. I’m quite new to the whole UA-cam community and I’ve come to realize that a LOT of the people I started watching and enjoying were hyping products they were getting paid to hype. I feel like I’m watching a 20 min commercial when I go back and look at them. Just found your channel tonight...all the way from Dallas and love your honesty and realness. Can’t wait to try some new tips in the am.
You are one of the most genuine, straightforward, no bullshit, professional people on UA-cam. I absolutely love and respect you beyond words. Keep doing exactly what you’re doing, it’s you. 😘😘😘❤️
We love you Wayne because you're real, tell like it is and you've stayed grounded over all the years of following you. Never change!
Once again you are keepin it real! Thank you. I guess if you have no life and UA-cam is your only entertainment you will get hung up on things like background. Me, I am here for the reviews and tips that I can really use on my aging wrinkly skin. I rely on short to the point videos. I love your style so please continue to be you and speak your truth. Love you Wayne.
It takes a lot of courage and humility to share what you have shared. I watch your videos for the beauty education you provide. Thank you for being honest and real. ♡
Your videos are so relaxed- they are quick, informative, a bit of sarcasm and humour thrown in for good measure. I am sure many do not even take notice of what is in the background! There is no need to be like everyone else when what you are doing currently is working just fine :)
You set a great example of how to strive to be a better person. Your personal growth of character has been most inspirational! Best of luck of your continued journey! You are just a pleasure!!
I love your channel! You're such a nice, honest, and humble person please don't ever change and don't let negative people get to you. Love the background because I feel as if you're welcoming us into your home.
I love how down-to-earth you are in your videos, and the fact that you don't change your whole house and lifestyle in order to "show" how ballin your life is, or how successfull you are. i love that you use your money sensibly (like on your mum or saving for your retirement). Please keeping doing videos on make up tutorials and reviews... that's what I watch for. And your videos may not be the slickest (although i've never noticed), but i don't need background soundtrack or slick transitions to learn how to apply make up better, i just need you to show me how. Keep doing you Wayne, cause it's 100% awesome.
You are just so spot on genuine. I am so happy to have found you! Sending you much love from Canada 💯🇨🇦❤️
You're fabulous as you are!! I think you're a super person who has ethics and honor and you give a psychic boost to us all out here in virtual land. Thank you for your candor and sharing.
I appreciate you so much. I love that you want to buy your mum a house. I could care less about your back ground. I watch you because you are knowledgeable and honest...and I love the way you wink at the end of your videos. You keep being you. The world needs more people like you.
Please don’t change a thing! You do a beautiful job with an industry that is insanely competitive and ever-changing. You bring REAL advice and REAL knowledge to those of us who want to learn whether for personal or professional reasons. I think your platform is on-point, raw and unpolished for all the right reasons. You clearly are very passionate about what you do and have an incredibly generous soul. I am very grateful to learn from each and every one of your videos and whether someone attacks you professionally or personally I think you just need to keep doing you and stay the beautiful person you are. Thnx for spreading your knowledge and the message that beauty is in everyone.
