I’ve been dyingggg for a tip vid 😭💙 your explanation and the knowledge you share is the reason I fell in love w your channel to begin with. Love this sm and soooo here for this girl!! 💕
update: after years of you being the only person whose Recs I purchase from I FINALLY went to get sheer glow but I blacked out at ULTA and spent $230 :-)))
I would love to see some cheap drugstore makeup review from you. Im curious to hear what are your opinions on popular products like essence, catrice, rimmel, revolution etc. You never really talk about those. xo
Ana A @melissaalatorre I was about to say the same. Like her technique and recommendations. However, sometimes we cant use the same product not because of the price but its accessibility and compatibility. For instance certain highend brands like Laura Mercier/Mac foundations or makeup just burn my skin. Would be nice to see an expanded collections of hers. Will give Nars a try and see :).
I so appreciate your effort to relate to those who struggle with problem skin. Your compassion means so much.
FAVORITE UA-camR 100%... you’re beautiful, very reliable, and refreshingly honest and I appreciate that so much!! I started using the Dr. Jart Cicapair line because of your review and I absolutely fell in love along side of so many others like DE Lala Retro🥰 SO... I was wondering if you have tried the Dr. Jart Ceremidin Cream or if you plan to and if so, could you please do a review? I know skincare is personal and takes time to test so I understand if you can’t! Stay beautiful and never change!!
Leah Werner awww thank you my love!!!!! And yes ceremidin is also a personal favorite of mine!
Awesome!! I’m sorry to ask another question because I know you get a ton of comments but maybe just if you have time... I noticed you used sunscreen from Zo Skincare and I actually use some of their medicated items and through the med spa I got it at, I also got turned on to Elta Md Skincare sunscreen and it’s seriously the best I’ve ever tried. Specifically I use the 46spf clear one and it has never broken me out and it’s sooooo moisturizing. I also tried the tinted one and it just doesn’t compare. I actually have super oily skin and when I first put it on, although it felt amazing, it was so shinny(the way I wish my skin would naturally glow)... HOWEVER, it goes amazing under makeup! I was shocked... I’d be curious to know what you think if you’ve tried it and if you haven’t, I’d highly recommend it... thanks for the reply💕
Love this video! The look turned out to be super fresh and pretty. I tend to consistently break out every now and again, and then I am left with dark spots that just won't go away! I found this to be beyond helpful! Thank you so much!!!
Koh Gen Do is a smaller brand from Japan and as a person who lives in Japan I could see why therea such a small shade range lol in Japan you don’t really need to have lots of shades cause more than 95% of the population have the same skin tone😂 but as you said, they are trying👏👏
Marina Ishimaru yes I completely agree, for their brand it makes total sense because that’s a majority of their business but they are getting popular across the globe and should slowly but surely start extended their shade range as they become more and more popular lol
I actually think Koh Gen Do has more market share internationally than in Japan. I never heard of this brand when I was in Japan. But I do agree that it's really an awesome brand!
Love your depth of beauty knowledge and how well you speak! I love that you speak fast, but so clear, concise yet informative. I feel like I get so much from your 30 min video than anyone else’s! Great job!!!
I love how simple yet beautiful this look is. I love dramatic looks but sometimes these kinds of looks are just what you need. 😍the koh gen doh foundation looks like second skin must try
The ULTA brand concealers have a peach corrector, and it's soooo good! It's full coverage and is super creamy. I even used it to cover tattoos. So underrated!
Thanks I will check it out.
I found these "pro tips" videos and had to go all the way back to the first one! I love them!
I seriously love this look so much! It’s so natural and beautiful. I need to go get that NARS bronzer and Becca highlighter!
lol "#justthetips" is the BEST hashtag I have EVER heard!
I have oily skin and it has improved a lot since sticking to a skin care regime, but this is actually how I do my routine too. A hydrating foundation and setting it really well vs matte foundation compares a lot when I end up having bad skin days.
The fenty gloss bomb is THE BEST! So worth the extra splurge to get the tiny size at Sephora!! Pop in your evening bag!! Also Eve pearl peach corrector is THE BEST!
Favorite orange/salmony color corrector: Jose Blasco the orange concealer - it's super orange and creamy. Reminds me of old school theatre makeup, it COVERS. Not right for all skin types but I have yellow undertones, and very dark under eyes and it's the only thing that works to cover purple under my skin.
For peachy under-eye corrector try Sisley-Paris phyto cernes éclat concealer in the shade 2 and Clinique beyond perfecting super concealer in the shade apricot.
Super cheesy and corny but I remember the first video I ever watched of you and it was a pro makeup tips! Putting translucent setting power on your eyelashes to stop it from transferring! Still using that tip to this day ❤️
definitely bringing back more pro makeup tips focused content!
Daaaang that Becca highlighter looked so good on you!
K thanks! I’m sad I ever neglected it!
Thank you for focusing on the tips again! I miss the days of beauty UA-camrs focusing on passing some of their expertise to us less-talented folks! It really helps. I basically learned to do my makeup from you guys on youtube at one point. Thanks for bringing it back! :)
Your videos so positive , it’s your personality I guess....a very nice vibe and good content always. You are one of my fav persons on the platform. More power to you
Love your Pro Tip videos! You are truly talented and have helped me learn how to apply my makeup correctly. I went a long time without wearing makeup because I felt so uncomfortable in this mask I created. Thank you so much for above all helping me to feel beautiful in my own skin!
I have a huge patch of psoriasis thats healing on my left cheek. And my sister's wedding is in 5 days... and I'm doing my own makeup. This video has been SO incredibly helpful!!! Thank you!!!
for a recommended concealer: glo skin beauty’s oil free camouflage concealer, i use shade golden and have a similar skin tone as you. blends so nicely and has great coverage, just a small shade range.
I just ordered the secret camouflage last week because I remembered how much you loved and used it! I’ve never had acne but my skin has been going through something for a few months. I’m glad to see you use it again!
I honestly agree with you about having a dewy look rather than matte look specially when you have textures on the skin or blemishes. That’s how I do it too
Benefit’s boing brightening concealer! Great peachy shades. Love the texture, and coverage and huge plus, it wears down beautifully by the end of a work day! I really only use foundation to spot conceal, yet this benefit concealer looks great and not out of place at all
Bobbi Brown has a peachy under eye (and corner) corrector called Peach.I’ve been using it for years.Good stuff.I dont know why Bobbi Brown make up doesn’t get more coverage with the youtubers.🧐
true.
Because they don't send so many PR.
Second that. I use BB corrector in medium bisque. It's excellent.
Probably because it's quite expensive..
One of my favorite natural looks to date! Gorgeous Melissa!
I love love LOVE your videos!! I always learn so many new tricks and techniques and you literally could not have timed this video any better!! I recently had a break out and my skin has been so dry and textured lately!! Definitely gonna be trying the techniques that you used and I love this look!! YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL MELISSA!
I 💯 agree on a natural finish foundation working better for texture as long as you then set it well. Matte makes me look old as dirt as I get older and emphasizes my texture just as bad as a dewy foundation would, if not worse because I also look like Skeletor. Love demi/satin matte over anything.
Try the Bare Mineral Invisible Bronzer- SO good!
You should try the L.A Girl Pro Concealer in the shade “ Creamy Beige” 💯
Aisha Shaqeeb i think she has tried the concealer. There are so many great affordable correctors now, thank God. LA Girl is the best liquid form. Pixi and Nyx have great ones in pots. Then of course Benefit Boing, Eve Pearl, BB are good ones.
Always love your videos! Especially when you teach us how to do things. I’m no makeup artist so I love all the help I can get. And you’re so bubbly and positive. I appreciate that ❤️
I can’t even begin to thank you enough, this has been the tutorial that feels was made for me... THANK YOU!! 🙏🏽
I like the Becca under eye brightening corrector 😍
So did I until I saw myself in direct sunlight. It's has sparkles that are still visible when applying concealer and powder ontop
Really? I absolutely hated it! I'm returning and will stick with the Ulta correcting stick :)
That’s why they make different products for different people. Looks great under my eyes
Glad it worked for you, that little jar isn't cheap. I give mine to my mother, I couldn't get past the glitter sparkles but she loves it
That's a great concealer blending tip! If I wear foundation I wear it like this (I use luminous silk) and then spot conceal. Going to try that trick and put foundation on the sponge before blending so I don't remove too much coverage. Thanks queen!
I feel like when you put powder on, it takes away from the skin being dewy. I don’t set my dewy foundation. It’s really easy to fix your makeup through out the day when you don’t use powder. I have no issues and my skin stays pretty dewy and glowy! But this look is beautiful regardless!
Jennifer Autry agreed but for me touch ups are really annoying and unhygienic so I have to set my face partly
raindoweatingteddy I just carry my beauty blender with me in a case and touch up with that (it still has left over foundation on it). I actually don’t have to do too much touching up though. To each his own though. Whatever works for you:)
Jennifer Autry
Trust me, having a very oily T-zone , it’s a nightmare not to set a dewy foundation, it breaks out and wears off very quickly
Ran Rae oh I bet it does! I have dry skin so I don’t need to set it but I can imagine being an oily skin girl how you would have to!
Jennifer Autry
Exactly!! It hurts me when that beautiful natural dew disappears when i set it, but i have to, haha 😅
Thank you , because of your recommendation I have found two can't live without products. Nudestix, I now can do an easy fast entire face when I don't have time or just want a certain look natural or dramatic no muss or fuss look and Lancome Teint Idole camouflage in 260 I use as an under eye base, the best!! Both have really changed up my routine.
You are the queen of flawless foundation! I LOVE these videos!!
Estée Lauder has a great salmon colored concealer it’s double sided with one side a lighter coverage concealer for highlighting and a full coverage side
I loved this. Thank you so much, it was so informative. Totally loving #justthetips ;)
Your skin looks amazing as always 😍😍
As I'm starting this video, I'm reading the description box and just realized I've found SO MANY of my favorite makeup and skin care products based on your recommendations and what you use. I feel lucky to have found your channel. Thank you Melissa. I'm looking forward to learning more from you in the new year!
Melissa, have you tried to set the areas with texture/where you’ve covered post acne marks with a foundation powder that actually had some coverage? That way you’re mattifying and setting those areas whilst adding more coverage & you then won’t risk moving around your coverage with bronzer etc
How beautiful you are Melissa! I remember the early days when you were so very nervous and spoke so fast (I loved your cuteness then & love your cuteness and realness now too)! Never change! You are beautiful inside and out and it comes through on each video! ❤️❤️❤️, your fan in South Africa 🇿🇦
Gorgeous as always 😍 I use the Becca under eye brightening corrector or Nars soft matte concealer in honey if I need extra coverage. I’ve got the Becca Opal liquid highlighter as well, but with so many new highlighters being released, you forget how good it is. 🥰
You are SO amazing! This is so helpful, and exactly what I was looking for in regards to my wedding makeup for my skin!
i would love to see a video also of you doing this with lipsticks! AND id love to see a vide on non traditional wedding makeup looks!!! with rust colors and stuff :) YOURE AWESOME
Melissa, you are the *best* you tuber EVER! What an amazing video!!! Thank you for all the tips and tricks!
Loooove it. Thanks for #JustTheTips they r perfect for this cold weather giving me dry patches.
This came at such a good time. My skin just started to flare up so much at 21, and I feel so gross and down about it. Thank you for your tips.
Great tips for sure! Totally going to try applying setting powder with the kabuki💕. The Becca under eye brightening correction is my holy grail for dark circles!
Everyone I hear talk about Koh Gen Do absolutely have to have it in their collection, describe it exactly as you did and are just as perplexed by why or how it works so well. It has me VERY intrigued.
blending concealer with a little bit of foundation. genius ❤️
Love all of your videos! Patiently waiting for your video on the Nars Ignited palette, I bought it just because you raved about it so much on stories!!
You should try the derma e scar gel for the post break out scars!! Helps them fade away faster.
Loved this video! & can’t live without that gloss bomb! I need to pick up that Becca liquid highlight ASAP! Looks great! Thanks gorgeous!
Sooooooooo beautiful and elegant. Perfect for an Aussie Christmas down here!
it comestics eye concealer. think its called bye bye undereyes. My tube of concealer has lasted me so long all the writing on it rubbed off lol. I use it in the shade Tan.
Side note: I think we are shade twins. Always test out your shade first and it’s usually always a match!!
Mellisa thank you so much for sharing! I myself use similar techniques when My skin is acting up, you are highly knowledgeable at what you do. THANK YOU🖤
I just heard that Sunday Riley had employees sending emails telling people (other employees) to write good reviews on their products. Specifically saying "my skin was so bad and I tried everything until I found this and it finally fixed my problem." I don't know if you heard but I just found out about it and figured I would let you know, I know their products are pricey but if their products work for you then great! I just didn't appreciate their dishonesty
Lauren Muse i just read that in another comment, I had no clue! Shows how little I pay attention to drama 🤷🏻♀️ but now that I am aware definitely going to look into it!
Love the info you hand out and yay for your skin recovering!! I love the Fenty Gloss too!!
Peachy/Salmony Concealer/Correctors I have: The Catrice concealer's Palette "allround" has a very nice peachy corrector. I also own the Peach corrector from LA GIRL and I love it!
I love how you say you name. ! I just think you are beautiful always. Love you. And miss Meeka. Love her too
Thank you so much my love!
Melissa you’re so beautiful & I luv this fresh makeup look.
Thanx for sharing all the wonderful tips❤️
Nars Sheer Glow is my jam. I love trying new foundations but I always go back to Sheer Glow.
My favorite UA-camr but I’d really love more drugstore. I just can’t afford expensive makeup but in awe of your knowledge and technique!!! Let us poor folk get ideas too!! Lol😉
I really love your pro tips
You should try the Kirkland brand makeup wipes from Costco. THE BEST wipes ever made. Way softer than Neutrogena and they are fragrance free. Also, they're wetter (sorry if that's gross) so 1 wipe goes a long way. Better than any makeup wipe I've tried... and I've tried them all!
I’m suffering from folicolitis.... it’s horrible my right side of my face was soooo swollen it look like i had dental surgery.... I’ve never had this before, it’s been the worst ever. All the stuff the doctor prescribed has my face feeling so dry and flaky.... i just lost my job and i can’t even afford skincare right now... so depressed... but I’m happy you got so much better.... watching your videos really lift me up... thank love
You have my sympathies for your job loss. A dilute solution of apple cider vinegar can be very soothing.
Jeanette Harvey thank you, I will try today!
One of your best videos so far! Loved how much I learnt from it. Thank you so much
GORGEOUS! God bless you!
Beautiful 😍 Will try this look on my skin tomorrow, I am recovering from acne and have a little texture and scarring still.. NARS sheer glow is the only foundation I use!
I really like Benefit's erase paste for a peachy corrector. I think now it's called boing brightening.
Ur gorgeous no matter what!
Beautiful makeup! Thanks for all the great tips!
Love this, so glad you put this up. Haven't come across many makeup routines to help textured skin as much as this. Curious to know how damp your beauty blender is when you applied the highlighter and blush! Xx
This tutorial is one of my top 5 favorites EVER! Although you're naturally gorgeous, this was so helpful. Thank you chica and Merry Christmas!!🥰🎄
Finally someone else says the Fenty gloss bomb smells like kool-aid! Lol I’ve always thought that and I love it. You inspired me to take out my liquid Becca shimmering skin perfector for tomorrow :) also their under eye brightener is peachy and works great
Tarte lifted isn’t discontinued. Maybe specifically at Sephora or something but still available on their website.
I absolutely love these tips! I just hope it works for my super oily skin :(
Makeup always either slips off my face in a couple hours no matter what items I use or it just doesn't do anything.
You look absolutely gorgeous though! xx
I love this routine!! You look so stunning, thanks for the tips❤️
And you're so gorgeous omgggggg💐💐💐
Love it! How do you take your makeup? Can you do a skin care routine?
I recommend the benefit erase paste! They changed the name I think it’s called the boing brightening concealer now but it’s so good and I think you will love it!! Also Bobbi brown has a good corrector too.
I used to love the Erase Paste, but I honestly don't see the same or even similar consistency to the Boing.
For my problems this is the best video ever!Thank you❤️
... and your tips are just SO good. Thanks a bunch.
Hi Melissa,Thanks for the fantastic tutorials...Love!
Thank you sooo much for sharing these tips!! I literally woke up with a rash/reaction to my face in my lower half of my face around my nose and chin. It’s very textured and red and all these tips were really helpful in covering up. I probably should air out my skin but I’m sooo insecure on how I look. Ugh and I, as well, have always had clear skin. I can’t help but wonder if my skin is reacting to new products or diet. But thank you again for your tips.
Mary Kay underwhelming concealer is peachy and it's great!!!!!!!
Undereye concealer sorry😁
I loveee this kind of video. I learned so much from you! Thanks!
Thank you for the video! I’m struggling with ance lately so i will try this technique out 😃
heard bobbi brown peach corrector is a good one!
Love this look
I miss your regular editorial makeup tutorials
I use the la girl concealer in creamy beige has a peachy undertone to it
I use fluid sheer (shade 2 or 4 I think?) all over my face before foundation !!!! 😊😊😊😍😍😍 that gives me the ultimate radiant glow
Your make up looks great. I have a couple darker spots from zits. I’m so into skin cares now and use no foundations, maybe little spot concealer. Love the no make up look.
You look great without make up, too!
Absolutely stunning natural look. I don’t have problem skin, but I will be trying this look......Your skin is so brown? Is it natural? Or is it a bottled tan? If so which one do you use. You looked so healthy.
Love your videos! This look is everythingggg
You’re such an amazing person ❤️Love your channel!!
Holy moly!! I'm so glad I found your channel! I've been binge watching #justthetips lol :p
I use 3.75 in the Anastasia pot concealer for color correction. I’m a NC 20 in Mac foundation. Not sure if you can ever get the Anastasia anymore. Also bong benefit shade med is nice.
