Okay awesome ones. Well you know I love our subscribers and I'm still reading
pretty well every single comment that you put down and I'm really surprised
that how many of you after watching a makeup video have never worn makeup
before or maybe you haven't worn makeup......... some people are saying I haven't worn
makeup in like decades. Thank You Heather. And I thought what I would do is I do
this video for you rookies out there or you returners to makeup out there.
I'm just going to use eight products. So I'm going to really really keep it
simple and some of you who, you know are thinking well you know what, I don't want
to use all those 20 products that Heather's using, you might really find
this informative as well. It starts in just a few seconds.
So I wanted to do this video just to help those of you that, you know, need a
little bit of enhancement. You really want to get a little bit of confidence
back and what I'm using here are just eight products. I'm showing them here and
they really really cover everything that I need to do a full makeup on my face.
And the other thing about these products is I really made sure that they're
pretty reasonable. I know the mascaras a little on the high end but I also will
tell you about an option where you can get a drugstore product that actually
works just as well as well. So as you know I'd like to keep it real. I have
absolutely no makeup on my face and as a former 80's model that was really hard to
do, but I want to give the best to you guys and so I'm used to it now, but
anywho what I would suggest if you're just, you know starting on makeup or you
want to do a minimalistic kind of makeup or you're just returning to it is let's
start with a concealer. Now this concealer we're only going to use one in
this video, because I'm keeping it minimalistic as I said. It's a little
lighter than my skin tone and what I'm going to do is I just....yes you have the
lipsticky kind of thing, but what I like to do when I'm doing this kind of
an application is just, I don't know if you can see that...... they're kind of rolling
on my fingers a bit. I've got to start with underneath these eyes because I really
usually have like dark circles under my eyes sometimes. I even have bags, not
today but that's a good thing you know and I just sort of dab it, just kind
of dab underneath here and as you can see yes it's a little bit lighter......
just dabbing underneath again, these are great blenders and you have ten of them
here, it's called your fingers. Alright so there you go.
Now.....that you might say....ah that looks really really bright, but we're gonna
tone it down in a minute. Now if you have blemishes, if you have age spots, if you
have whatever which I got pretty well everything on the list.
Oh yeah, yeah um but just use this like this you see how that's covering up
there. Blend it in. I also like to put a little bit in between my eyes here
because, I don't know, it's kind of purply in there but I'll sort of show you this
one. Dab it on, blend it in, oh I got more here sorry this is gonna take up a lot
of the video all my spots that I have to cover up, but yep they're there. I got
some redness here, my nose a little bit on my nose and then can you see these
guys here, so I'm gonna go like that...like that....like that....like that and just do
some blending. Now one little final look here, what's that, blemish I guess and
a final little look. Oh you know what, this was nasty, this one here is really really
dark, so had to add a little bit there. So there you go.
One concealer that's all you need for this minimalistic kind of makeup and
it's a very natural makeup even though I'm not using a lot of products it still
works just fine. So let's see step number two while this dries. So well that's
drying we're gonna use eyeliner pencil. Alright and a sharpened one, make sure
it's sharp now. I'm using black for this video but you might feel a little more
comfortable with a softer kind of look. Maybe a brown would work for you and
this is a little bit tricky, you might need a little bit of practice at it, but
basically what you're going to do is...I usually start from the inside and work
my way out. Now you might be saying to yourself, oh I don't I think I'll skip
that one, I don't need the eyeliner. Well if you have droopy or hooded eyes and
actually I'm gonna put a link up there for the hooded eye video, you'll realize
why you need a little swoosh at the end, because we want to liven up your
eyes a little bit and you know the eyes are magic, so we do want to work a little
bit on them. So all I'm gonna do is......kind of hard to show you, but I started here,
see I'm just kind of feathering it out a bit, it's not a great big line, it's just
giving your eyelashes a little bit of definition and as we age, I don't know we
seem to lose some eyelashes, so this really just helps a bit, doing doing here
and don't...kind of do it in....in several strokes, you see I'm not just
going zoom like that, just kind of lightly brushing it and then at the end, I do a
little swoosh. I'll get back to the swoosh in a minute and I'm just gonna
quickly do my other eye.
There we go and the little swoosh. Alright next step. So the third item you're going
to need is an eyeshadow palette. Now this one I found is fabulous. It's not very
expensive either. It's by Burt's Bees. There's all kinds of different palettes
that you can get and actually I found this Burt's Bees makeup line really
really awesome and I'm gonna put a link up there for a video that I did on it
because it wasn't even a sponsored video but I applied the makeup and I really
really loved it. So let's choose this palette um this does not come with a
brush hmm so you might want to get a palette like this instead with a number
of different colors in it and that's going to come with your with a couple of
brushes which are good. Now if you're saying to yourself, you know what, I don't
really want to invest in brushes right now.
Well these work just fine little um little cotton swabs here and just
remember to throw them out occasionally, but I've used these before and they work
just fine, so let's just um go ahead with this and what we're going to do with
this is we're going to put this just above the eyes.
That's just on the eyelid there so I just want to make sure that I got it
straight, hold on for a second. Oh yeah very natural, a very natural look, also
what I'm going to do is.....sorry I'm kind of melting in here under the lights, but I want
to keep going with this and we'll cool off in a minute. Also put a little
highlighter up there right underneath the brow bone, that's really really
lovely there. Now what do you do with this color?
Well this color, if you can see just the natural....I don't have any makeup on, but
I've got a kind of a natural crease here, so what I'm going to do is, I'm just
gonna go along that natural crease there.
See it's looking pretty....yeah and I'm going to go along that natural crease
there and because of the hooded eyes that I have....didn't have them when I was
younger, but I got them now. I'm gonna just do a little swoosh out like that
and I am going to brush it out with my fingers there, all right so now there's a
third color in here and in this particular palette it's like a lavender
sort of color, but they also have pallets with Browns and other colors that you
might prefer. Now this is when you're a little bit daring if you want to do this
you might not want to do it the first try if you're just a beginner you're
getting back into makeup, but I will show it to you as for the people that are
just sort of want to do this, okay so first of all I use a brush like this or
you could use a q-tip, just be really really careful with that and I'm gonna
go underneath the eyes.
Notice I'm not using a liner, but this is really a pretty look just under there
and then right across here in the crease with that darker one to just show some
definition. See all these wrinkles I've got over here. I'm just trying to hide
them with the darker one and then that little swoosh that we made there we're
just gonna bring that up, there we go. I am literally melting it's really hot in
here under these lights. I'm going to go back but I'll be back in a second. I got
a fan here for a second. I'll be right back.
Alright I'm cooler. I'm keeping it real. Sweet....sweat
beads and all, but anyway, so I'm much cooler now and oh I wanted to mention to
you also, makeup brushes. If you do want to get some makeup brushes, I did a video
on that too on makeup brushes. I'm gonna put it up there you know the right kind
of makeup brushes to use so you might go...... I kind of like this makeup thing. I think
I'm gonna toss the cotton swabs and I'm gonna go ahead and use some proper
brushes. So I'll put a link up there to that video, but let's move on to the
foundation. so for this foundation I want to keep it easy-peasy for you guys again
this is a Burt's Bees product and I love this little compact because it has a
mirror on it but it also comes with an applicator so that's always nice to have.
So what I'm going to do is I'm going to just sort of dab this into the
applicator. I want to dab and brush a little bit like this so a little
bit of a stroke there and I'm going to try to now put this on my face. Let me
see if I can do it with this mirror. Hopefully this works for you guys and I
am not going to go under my eyes yet. I just want to cover you know we've got
we get discolorations when we get older and and you know even when we're younger
we've got some discolorations on our face. So what we want to do is cover them
up, not with a lot and again I'm just sort of scraping and dabbing on this a
little bit. I don't know if you can see that, but yeah so lets go up here taking
that nice shine off. Well it wasn't a nice shine, it was
taking the shine off as well. All right and you can sort of see the difference
in the coloring here and over here.
This is really nice. I think it's got bamboo in it or something this some
powder so it's a hundred percent natural - I believe so that's always good and
what am I going to do with this last little part under my eyes...you don't want
to put too much powder under your eyes, that's where all the wrinkles are so if
you put too much powder under there all of a sudden you're going to age yourself
ten years. So just a little dab, little dab will do you....do you guys remember
that saying oh wow, going back probably long time ago. Now look at the difference
between the two. You got this side and this side, but I didn't put too much on
so now I'm going to take the shine away from this side and if it's too greasy
under there your mascaras gonna transfer. You can have all kinds of yucky things
happen. So there we go. That's it just small dab and we are done.
Next is the blush. So next as I said it's the blush and I really like this kind of
three color brush, a blush rather. I'm using a brush like this, but if you don't
want to buy the the brush quite yet you can use a little bit of cotton batten
and just very carefully put it on. Not too much. You're gonna have to be really
really careful with this, but for me since I have the brush I'm gonna use it.
I just dab, just dab and I'm going to put a little bit here on the apples of my
cheeks I think that's what they call it. You see how that is and I'm pretty yeah
so just put a little bit there. Now if you noticed here there is a kind of a
darker part of this blush, so if I wanted to I can using a different brush here I
could do a bit of contouring with this and I don't know when we get older it
seems that our faces get wider. So sometimes you know I really want to show
yes I still have cheekbones and I'm going to put a little bit here and here
also the word I hate to use is jowls. The words awful but anyway put a little bit
of that contouring under here as well and that will sort of take away some of
the look of the jowls. Now also that blush brush that I had here just you
know just want to give it a little bit of color all over and yeah. So next is
the mascara and I absolutely love this mascara, it goes on well it comes off at
night well, it doesn't sort of go underneath my eyes it's a little bit
pricey though, but I also in the Burt's Bees I also tried the burst B's
and it was really quite good and I think it was at least half the price of this
one. So you know if you're on a budget or whatever you could certainly do that, oh
and by the way I'm going to link both of these and all the other products that
I'm using in the description. I'm going to put a link to the blog and then at
the blog you'll be able to click on these products, see really what they were
and if you want to purchase them I have to say this on the video we do get a
little bit of a commission and that's really helping us to keep going with the
videos. A big THANK YOU if your doing that. Okay we
really appreciate it. Mascara time.Now what you want to do
with mascara, first of all thank you to all of the comments that have told me, do
not pump. I used to go pumping the mascara in here and do not pump your
mascara just pull it out of the wand like that if you pump the mascara you're
gonna put air in it and it'll dry out faster. So that's good thing to know
thanks everybody for those wonderful comments about that. Okay so I'm just
feathering the upper lashes here just a little feather
not too much and I'm gonna do another coat again but that's about it for now
and we're gonna let that coat dry and now we're going to work on the next part.
So we're waiting for that to dry. I've got this eyebrow pencil and you can
see it's got a little spooley on the bottom and the color I'm using is blonde.
Now we're all different colors and that sort of thing, so blonde is good for me
it's also you know a lighter color if you've got the silver hair growing in or
maybe you dyed your hair silver but be really careful that you're not getting
too dark of of an eyebrow look cuz it's really gonna be harsh on this. We're
going...that we want this to be a natural enhancement that's what the whole thing
is all about. A little natural enhancement and my
really true heartfelt wish is that you know maybe you've got a little more
confidence with that especially as you're maybe rising up in a few years
here. Brush the eyebrows up. Now if you are a mature woman some of your eyebrows
have left and not returned. So we've got to fill that in here .I just sort of
brush up like this. I don't go zoom again so brush up and this one here, look at the
mess that is.....maybe Bill can show you the close-up of that like okay my eyebrows
are missing I don't know where they went but they just decided to be missing one
day oh and by the way I did a video on shaping your eyebrows so you really
should take a look at that. I'll put the link up there somewhere for you because
if I did all of these steps in length this video would be like three hours
long and we don't want to do that. It's just going to be....you should be able to
put on this real quick makeup in under five minutes
easy. Maybe not the first time, but you know so I'm drawing in those little
hairs.
And then she had hairs on her eyebrows.
Just brush them back up again. All right so we can do another coat of mascara
here and again just very carefully.
See how pretty that is and the eyeliner that's there is just kind of blending in
it's not really....can't notice that eyeliner which is what I wanted.
Now I also at this particular point, you don't have to do this if you don't want
to, but I like to just do a little bit on the bottom lashes. I find it really
really enhances the whole eyes and I
think it's a very worthwhile step. So for my eighth product it's this lipstick
crayon. You know what? I just found this lipstick crayon. I absolutely love it.
It's amazing and I'm going to just put it on here, but you know what, looking at
our lips what happened to our lips, like it's just when we're young we've got
those red lips and everything else and then the color just disappears
anyway, so let's just lighten them up a little bit and what I love about this
crayon is you can outline your lips and fill them in and you're done. The other
thing I love about this little crayon is the fact that it does have a lid for it.
I could put this in my back pocket I could really easily put it in my purse
and so it's really easy to carry as well. So all I'm gonna do I'm not gonna go
crazy here I'm just gonna outline my lips the way they naturally are.
See that.....
then I'm done. That's done. So hey for sure you got to put on a little bit of
lipstick because that bland look, not working is it. So there you go. I hope, I
really do hope that this makeup video really helps the rookies or those of you
that are just getting back into makeup. It's also great for those who are on a
budget or that don't want to do like the 20 odd steps that I did in some of the
other videos where you go, man you know this is gonna cost a fortune or
this is too long. This is really as I said easy peasy and some of the things,
some of the steps that I didn't use on this particular makeup is....I did not, you
know I really didn't use a lipstick liner. I didn't use my anti-shine cream
that I love. There wasn't highlighters and all that
sort of thing the other thing that I didn't use in this video was primer so
some of you are probably thinking oh my gosh should I get primer.
Well I found that the the Burt's Bees foundation that I use and probably other
foundations as well they work okay on your bare skin, but I would suggest that
at night time you put on a night cream and then the next day don't put on a day
cream because sometimes if you're putting on these powders it's just gonna
get really really blotchy or oily and that sort of thing. So I just put it on
the fresh skin of the morning which still has a little bit of the night
cream on. So at the end of most of my videos we bring in the cuteness factor
