Just when I thought you couldn’t look more stunning here you go! I was zooming in thinking oh my gosh what has she done??!!! Your skin is so glowy!!! Your eye makeup is unbelievable. The woman at the counter knew what she was talking about. You are so lucky to have those big beautiful blue eyes. They are literally show stopping 6:42 and those colors really bring them out even more. Wow. Just wow. ❤
Chris, I just stumbled across the comment again and you are just the best. It’s funny at the time I thought I looked really weird in this video. Now I’m thinking- I need that energy back! Lol 🙏❤️
Hi Cherie. Even before you began speaking I thought your makeup looked lovely. I wanted to ask what you had on, as your skin looks dewy and glowing, not greasy. Re Holi, there will always be people who want to be offended, usually on behalf of a culture not their own. Nothing wrong with cultural appreciation. 😊
Thankyou Cherie for a very interesting episode.No need for apologies for the Rebecca Thompson Holi scent elaboration ( from Brighton in Melbourne...Bright is in regional VIC).There will always be people who have sensitivities that are sometimes out of your control.Your makeup is👌 and your glowy skin even better👌👌♥️.You do you,young lady. Favourite quote from you today..." It the takes you down a deep,dark pathway and then makes a sharp left...." ( sounds like my life! 🤭)Hope you have a less stressful week xx
Your natural skin and tone are gorgeous. I agree with the commenter above about recommending taupe for eyeshadow. I understand the color theory behind copper tones to help blue eyes pop, but your skin seems to have more blue/neutral undertones. You may want to try more rosy pink or something similar to your lip color. Or whatever. Playing with makeup is fun, and you can rock whatever you want to rock. You glow either way.
Thank you for this! I took your advice and dug out some of the rosy pinks in my makeup bag and have been blending the tiniest amount of warmer tones through them and its been great! I have to have a look at what I have and see if I can locate some taupe ones
@@TheTopNote So fun! I love Lisa Eldridge's makeup videos and have gotten some good tips from her. Her lipsticks are gorgeous too (RIP my bank account).
I think your skin tone would be better with more rose, pink, cool shades which would compliment your eyes and hair. I pulled out my Serge Lutens Fleurs d'Oranger, its so unusual, sweet, orangey, delicious. Then I pulled out Poeme by Lancome, another sweet perfume. I can only wear it below my waist, its so powerful. Both really nice.
Your skin looks very radiant and beautiful! Orangey eyeshadows will work only for those with very warm skin udertone and blue eyes. Although I have blue eyes, those warm eyesahows make me look sickly. Neutral, taupy browns work wonders, tho. They make my eyes look very blue. I would go into that direction in your case too.
Thank you thank you! Yes thats exactly how I feel too, that it made me look sickly (hence the uncle fester reference lol) I will definitley hunt down some taupey shades 😍
Great video Cherie! You look lovely! So elegant and chic as always! No need to apologise, you are always so thoughtful and conscious of peoples thoughts and feelings. You are always respectful. Thank you for putting this video out. Lots of love, Becky xxxx
You have one of the most unique collection of all the youtubers I follow. You always look beautiful Chérie but I think cool tones look better with your skin tone. But the most important is how you feel about it! 😉
Hi Cherie, that Gris Claire sounds so lovely. I’m glad you have it on hand to help you wind down from work stresses. Dealing with people can be taxing for sure! I hope this week is better ❤
You are such a beautiful woman with a very elegant essence. I think I prefer your normal make-up looks to this more bronzed one, maybe just more harmonious with your nature? Either way you do look beautiful. I recently picked up a sample of Le Pavillon D'Or, but I haven’t fallen for it yet. I’ll revisit is some different weather and see if anything shifts. Thanks for the video. I always genuinely enjoy listening to you.
Pavillon D'Or is a stunning fragrance, i definitely need to start spraying it now that Spring is here in UK 👍. I agree it smells golden. Most people say it's green, but I've always found it more yellow/ golden. Like a hazy meadow scent. Rose trombone is a lovely scent, i revisited my sample recently because i sold my bottle ages ago and started thinking of it again. I think the dry down went a little too dry and waxy on me, but it's still a great scent. I just love those mini xerjoff bottles. Wish the brand made them more available.
I just picked up a second hand bottle of Gris Clair and am so excited to wear it when things warm up in the northern hemisphere. Lovely video as always, Cherie, and you look nothing like Uncle Fester! 😂
I’m so with you about being ready to say goodbye to hot weather! Can’t wait to see what fragrances you talk about in autumn and winter. Bring on the cozy vibes!
Thank you S! Yes I agree I think pinky tones, even if warm are much better for me. I’m glad I wasn’t just being blinkered because that is what I was used to lol
I think the eye shades were from an EM Cosmetics palette called Divine Skies. The bronzer I was using was the Chanel one (again another sample) and I think that is what I felt was a bit too orange. I might have overdone it though, Ive been using a lighter touch lately and I think I like it better.
You look lovely…but you always do! Should I be ashamed that I never iron my sheets? lol! If someone spent a great deal of time in a different country, naming a perfume after a special part of that other culture is a sort of homage…at least it seems like that to me. Gris Clair is so nice … meditative …lovely…patient…and alive. Ma Beste is great!
Hi Cherie, thank you for another great video. I'm sorry you had to deal with some difficult people recently, but how comforting though that a lovely perfume came to the rescue. Just goes to show how powerful and healing scents can be. You look beautiful, the makeup really makes your eyes look intensely blue. Also, the dress and makeup for the yacht event were stunning! ❤
As soon as I saw your video start, I actually thought wow your face looks fantastic, it’s Glowing, your skin looks amazing and I do agree when you have blue eyes, the colours that she mentioned are perfect. Love it!!!
Warm colours on blue eyes does not always work. I have a cool undertone and blue eyes. When I use warm colours on my eyes it looks like i have been crying! I prefer taupe on a cool undertone.
Hi Cherie, I tried Gris Clair a long time ago and I instantly thought of a Spa, I wear Ani when I need to feel calm, vanilla seems to do it for me. I bought a vintage! of FdO by SL and I am so glad. (I have never bought any vintage, I find it so risky...) the freshness of the beginning is actually gone but then is a bliss, less jasmin and cumin than the current versión and the orange blossom, tuberose, hibiscus mix is so beautiful! Exactly as I remembered😊. Regarding your make up I think it looks great, but orange & copper are difficult colours, maybe make sure ypu conceal the redness around the nose and under the eyes. But it looks very good on you! That dress moment 😍
Loved the video. I think you always look beautiful and your skin always looks amazing. Fair, bronzed, both look fantastic, and why not have a little fun!
Heyyy Cheri, thanks for this! Always great hearing your thoughts. I'm so close to pulling the trigger on Blondine 💪 I've managed to sample it (wasn't easy to get, lol) and it was love at first sniff. I have a feeling longevity may be lacking on my skin tho, what are your experiences with it ooi? 🤔 I also got my nose on the new Serge Lutens La Fille Tour De Fer, i think that's what it's called. rosey heaven and longevity is good. Possibly more spring/summer, but a nice one 👌🌹 xx
I will have to check out that Serge! Blondine lasts well on me but projection drops away after a few hours. If I wear it to work I can still smell it on me at the end of the day though. i think you can get travel sizes as well? Perhaps that is the next step up if you arent ready to commit to the bottle :)
Um Cherie. Your beautiful pale skin has forever enchanted me but yes, the warm shadow looks great with your eyes. The bronzer may be a bit orange, but makeup look is fresh. Maybe don’t bring it in as far into the cheeks? Ok, back to video 😄
Yeyyyy, you wore my fave! I looove Пиковая Дама (Pikovaya Dama) , love the book n opera and everything bc I am Russian. Mind you I bought it in Aotearoa and since I moved back to Russia in 2022 the perfume has changed from the beginning as it could be the difference in climate I live in the Urals in Ekaterinburg and I personally in NZ it was better because of the humidity and heat. I know some guys wore in in UAE 🇦🇪 and it does have a good performance there as well. If I had to wear only one perfume it has to be this one. It does smell like the perfumes our ancestors wore in the past it gives me that vibe but in a obviously modern interpretation of it... I love your list of perfumes you described. And as you mentioned about the bronzer I have the same skin tone and I don't like wearing it on me. 🙌 I think you look absolutely gorgeous the way you are naturally although this is worth typing and I might be wrong as I am not an expert at all.
Thanks Lana! Yes Im sure the NZ temperatures helped it to bloom more, I imagine a lot of perfumes must struggle in the bitter cold of the Urals! Im not expert either haha hence I was appealing to the make up aficionados for advice - mind you I think a lot of success with make up comes with experimentation.
@@TheTopNote that's for sure. Apologies for my typos hence mistakes. I struggle to correct them as usually UA-cam makes it difficult for us here... 😉 🙏 😂 ✌️ I love your last video about just the content in your life. 😍
Hi, You look lovely as always and your makeup - if you're wearing any - looks very natural. If you don't mind, can you share the name of the Chanel Les Exclusif you're considering? Thank you.
Your eyes look very blue. The glow/bronzer is a bit shiny, but that is the trend right now. I see people with super shiny noses and cheeks all over. The matte look is nowhere to be seen. I think it is nice to experiment.
Kiki! So lovely to hear from you. How is the new job going? Thanks yeah I’m so on board with the dewy look, because I live a million percent humidity 😂
It's hard to know what your makeup looks like in person, because the lights and camera wash colours out (you can barely see the bronzer), plus it seems like you may have some sort of filter on?
Sadly I have not yet tried the new New Look so I can’t compare. Pikovaya is like an ambery aldehydic fragrance, I haven’t seen any reviews on the New Look but have a feeling it might lean in a different direction?
The makeup works... it gives you a very soft relaxed look. I love natural makeup, which gently warms the face.. and yes your eyes do pop, with that shadow. Modern makeup trends are over the top. Women, especially young women don't seem to realise how ridiculous and desperate for attention they look. So sad .. oops was that a rant. Anyway what does Matt think of it?
Happy Sunday lovely! When the video started I thought "Your makeup looks great on camera." What an epic fragrance-wear month you had. Stress and lack of sleep because of difficult people? Honey, do you want me to voodoo doll pin their ass until they are full of hemroids, so that they can't sit down. What are frag friends for? I LOVE doll shopping too! Soooo, happy to help😏anytime. xo

I like the makeup and I agree with the person at the counter with copper making blue eyes pop.

Your makeup is beautiful!

Oh man! Rum and rose sounds amazing. 🙂 Hope you have a good week!
And to you my friend! Jim- I really do enjoy Rose Trombone but also I think the boozy element is fairly subtle
I just picked up a second hand bottle of Gris Clair and am so excited to wear it when things warm up in the northern hemisphere. Lovely video as always, Cherie, and you look nothing like Uncle Fester! 😂
Hope you enjoy it!
I own quite a few M.Micallef fragrances and Pure Extreme is next on my Wishlist! So airy and easy to wear
Wow I’m shocked (and pleased) Uncle Serge wins: how wonderful! Beautiful choices Cherie 🩶 Makeup looks glowy and fresh!
I’m so with you about being ready to say goodbye to hot weather! Can’t wait to see what fragrances you talk about in autumn and winter. Bring on the cozy vibes!
💯 🥵
I worked at Mecca back in the day and I have blue eyes. I never loved any copper eyeshadows. You would suit like me more light pinky shades 😉
Thank you S! Yes I agree I think pinky tones, even if warm are much better for me. I’m glad I wasn’t just being blinkered because that is what I was used to lol
Omg. Before you even started speaking, I wanted to know all your makeup this video. Especially those eyes!!! 💚 Thanks!

Lovely Lynn…I didn’t even own an iron until I met Matt and so far he is still the only one that uses it 😂 we don’t iron our sheets either haha

Just goes to show how powerful and healing scents can be. You look beautiful, the makeup really makes your eyes look intensely blue. Also, the dress and makeup for the yacht event were stunning! ❤
thank you! Oh I LOVE that dress, now I just need more excuses to wear it!
Hi Cherie,
I also have Gris Clair, and I am wearing it only at nighttime. :D
We really have very similar tastes.
It's so good!
As soon as I saw your video start, I actually thought wow your face looks fantastic, it’s Glowing, your skin looks amazing and I do agree when you have blue eyes, the colours that she mentioned are perfect. Love it!!!
Warm colours on blue eyes does not always work. I have a cool undertone and blue eyes. When I use warm colours on my eyes it looks like i have been crying! I prefer taupe on a cool undertone.
I have really been enjoying your videos! I love how you talk about perfumes that I don't hear about anywhere else
Thank you! X
Love the makeup! Looks great!
Thank you so much 😀
I looove Gris Clair, for me it's the most beautiful lavender perfume I have ever smelled.
agreed, its so enigmatic and beautiful.
You look lovely. And I love Lost Alice 👍🏻 smells like tangy bergamot with hint of carrot and some lightly buttered toast 🤷🏻♀️
I love this description!

Hi, You look lovely as always and your makeup - if you're wearing any - looks very natural. If you don't mind, can you share the name of the Chanel Les Exclusif you're considering? Thank you.
Oh for sure, it’s 31 Rue Cambon and thank you!
I love Pure extreme and I am going to buy a bottle when I finish decant. I have to explore more from Micallef.
Same!!
You look very fresh! It’s a nice look for you ❤
I think you look beautiful, makeup is hard but you did a great job!!!
I tried! YeH it does not. One naturally to me that’s for sure
I need to try Rose Trombone 😍😍😍
Your eyes look very blue. The glow/bronzer is a bit shiny, but that is the trend right now. I see people with super shiny noses and cheeks all over. The matte look is nowhere to be seen. I think it is nice to experiment.
Kiki! So lovely to hear from you. How is the new job going? Thanks yeah I’m so on board with the dewy look, because I live a million percent humidity 😂
I don't think you usually look pasty! The makeup looked naturally glowy though. Maybe more youthful as well?
❤
It's hard to know what your makeup looks like in person, because the lights and camera wash colours out (you can barely see the bronzer), plus it seems like you may have some sort of filter on?
No filter that I’m aware of but the lights are bright. I still felt even in editing that the colour was a bit warm for me though.
Hi, Cheri, is Pikovaja Dama similar to New Look of Dior, which is also aldehydic?
Sadly I have not yet tried the new New Look so I can’t compare. Pikovaya is like an ambery aldehydic fragrance, I haven’t seen any reviews on the New Look but have a feeling it might lean in a different direction?
Youre gorgeous!

Great ❤

Your make up looks great and the natural glow si very youthful! Definitely not Uncle Fester
