My favourite thing about your channel is that you use such a wide variety of products which introduces new options that may be purchasable in areas where certain brands are not available. In addition to that you just do really great make-up without all the marketing and brand representation that is so prevalent with a large majority of beauty UA-camrs. Thank you for sharing your amazing skills with us! I'll be watching for a long time to come! - xxx from South Africa
I love this kind of naturally- beautiful- yet- sophisticated look. It's perfect for the holidays! I enjoy the artsy tutorials that you and Sam have done, even though I could never do them, but I enjoy this type of look and tutorial the best. Absolutely gorgeous!
I love when you do looks with warm tones such as this one. It reminds me a little of the Rosie HW Met gala look you did. You look perfect, glamorous and absolutely flawless.
Thanks for another great look! I appreciate how you can use so many different products, some expensive and some budget friendly and still create a wonderful look!
i could not stop looking at the eyeshadow the whole time you were doing something else i love that darn palette. but i love this look you are gorgeous.
Nicola - That is the most stunning most beautiful look you have ever done. I have to go out and get the Dior palette and the Mac lipstick. Stunning - stunning - stunning :-)
You and Sam are both stunning beauties. Thank you both so much for all your tricks and tips that you share with us. You both are such a delight to watch. Bravo!!
Nic absolutely love this! Well Done! You never cease to amaze me with your talent! How do you and Sam do it?! Love your tutorials although I'm around the same age as your Mum! She must be so proud I know I would be! xx
I can't work out what it is... the way you've parted your hair, the foundation, the eyeshadow shape.... but you've never looked so beautiful Nic xxx such a flattering look, especially on you
I know I'm not Pixiwoo but from what I've heard, bronzers have a warmer tone to them so they warm up your face as if you're tanned but if you look at a lot of contouring powders and cremes they have more of a cool, grey undertone to make it appeal more like a natural shadow.
a "bronzing" powder is usually milled differently, the powder is a lot finer and applies a lost softer and sits closer to the skin. Contouring is more something you do, than something you use. You could use a powder blush to contour which, blush generally is more dense than an average bronzing powder. You could use either... applied properly you could achieve either look. hope that helps
I have that too. Primers are good, I also make sure to always powder the concealer with a little bit of really fine powder. Not that it works for me every single time.. I have little tiny wrinkles under my eyes ( and i'm only 22! :-/ ) but it helps a lot. Using thinner foundations also help me with it.
if you cant get hold if primers try setting the concealer with a transparent or translucent powder, that way it shouldn't budge during the day or crease. works for me!
It's almost scary how accurate this is, when I saw Nic in my subscription box I thought it was Blake! Oh yes, and please more hooded eyelid makeup tutorials because I have similar hooded eyes to Blake :)
In case that they don't read your question: They used to use fixing sprays quite often in their earlier videos (usually Fix+ by MAC) Maybe their skin types have changed and they don't feel the need anymore. But also they still sometimes use it when it's necessary to make the look stay longer e.g. in their wedding tutorials or Party Makeup. Habbits change e.g. they used to use Vanilla by MAC all the time as a highlighter and i haven't seen them do so in what feels like years. Hope this helped :)
Bronzing will make you look more tanned and also kinda countour. Countouring will only make those areas which are applied deeper, making your face look slimmer, without looking tanned. Usually bronzers got shimmers (not all of them) and countoring shadows are usually matte. Matte bronzers are very good for contouring.
This is beautiful! Look, you were the first make up channel I came across and subscribed to, because you are amazing, but I haven't been watching as many videos after you changed the lighting. We know you changed it because you want us to have a better experience... maybe it's just me, but I find it harder to find dupes for what you are using with this lighting, and I really want to continue enjoying your channel. Is there any way you could use your old lighting system again? You two are amazing

I love that Bobbi Brown foundation on your skin, it gave you such a lovely dewy finish. I really enjoyed this tutorial. Gorgeous!
I love when you do looks with warm tones such as this one. It reminds me a little of the Rosie HW Met gala look you did. You look perfect, glamorous and absolutely flawless.
