0:00:00.110 --> 0:00:02.010
<v Speaker 1>Like, have you ever just wondered, like, why do some

0:00:02.050 --> 0:00:04.750
<v Speaker 1>days your mascara, you pop it on and it looks, like, really,

0:00:04.790 --> 0:00:06.960
<v Speaker 1>really good, your lashes are separated, and then some days

0:00:07.040 --> 0:00:09.040
<v Speaker 1>it just doesn't look great and you've got, like, one

0:00:09.119 --> 0:00:13.440
<v Speaker 1>giant fat lash because it's all clumped together? Hello, guys,

0:00:13.500 --> 0:00:15.520
<v Speaker 1>and welcome back to Stepping Up. I'm doing something a

0:00:15.540 --> 0:00:18.440
<v Speaker 1>little bit different today, but I've always wanted to record

0:00:18.460 --> 0:00:21.610
<v Speaker 1>this episode. Now, I'm doing a bit of a throwback,

0:00:21.750 --> 0:00:24.110
<v Speaker 1>and if you didn't know, in a past life of mine,

0:00:24.450 --> 0:00:27.110
<v Speaker 1>I actually was a makeup artist and I ran... a

0:00:27.130 --> 0:00:31.020
<v Speaker 1>really successful makeup artistry business. I would do weddings every

0:00:31.040 --> 0:00:33.239
<v Speaker 1>weekend and I was booked out for like years in

0:00:33.280 --> 0:00:35.840
<v Speaker 1>advance and it was so much fun and I really,

0:00:35.880 --> 0:00:38.580
<v Speaker 1>really loved it. So I have done a lot of faces,

0:00:38.640 --> 0:00:41.589
<v Speaker 1>like hundreds of faces. I have played with a lot

0:00:41.630 --> 0:00:43.850
<v Speaker 1>of makeup. I've learned a lot of things over the

0:00:43.890 --> 0:00:46.330
<v Speaker 1>years and I thought I would do a really quick

0:00:46.510 --> 0:00:50.750
<v Speaker 1>fun episode giving you my best makeup hacks and from,

0:00:51.110 --> 0:00:54.310
<v Speaker 1>I guess, an ex-makeup artist that will actually really help you,

0:00:54.380 --> 0:00:56.410
<v Speaker 1>not just for like your full glam, this is for

0:00:56.450 --> 0:00:59.940
<v Speaker 1>like your day-to-day makeup. And this is the stuff that

0:00:59.980 --> 0:01:02.120
<v Speaker 1>no one really teaches you. And this is honestly the

0:01:02.200 --> 0:01:06.819
<v Speaker 1>stuff that I picked up, not so much like in

0:01:07.100 --> 0:01:10.459
<v Speaker 1>the actual makeup course idea, which was a whole year

0:01:10.520 --> 0:01:13.459
<v Speaker 1>in Sydney, but it was just from other artists and

0:01:13.500 --> 0:01:15.820
<v Speaker 1>things that you learn along the way. Before I get

0:01:15.880 --> 0:01:18.440
<v Speaker 1>into giving you guys the makeup tips, I just want

0:01:18.459 --> 0:01:21.840
<v Speaker 1>to say like, have you guys ever thought obviously if

0:01:21.860 --> 0:01:24.880
<v Speaker 1>you're like a millennial, that it's just kind of unfair that,

0:01:25.600 --> 0:01:28.959
<v Speaker 1>you know, Gen Z and everything, they got to like have,

0:01:29.020 --> 0:01:30.679
<v Speaker 1>you know, they got TikTok, they got YouTube and all

0:01:30.720 --> 0:01:32.900
<v Speaker 1>those things to teach them how to do makeup. Like we,

0:01:33.140 --> 0:01:36.160
<v Speaker 1>who remembers using that Maybelline mousse and it would just

0:01:36.200 --> 0:01:39.550
<v Speaker 1>like melt off your face and then we'd put concealer

0:01:39.640 --> 0:01:42.390
<v Speaker 1>on our lips. And I remember like I plucked the

0:01:42.480 --> 0:01:44.750
<v Speaker 1>shit out of my eyebrows because I actually got bullied

0:01:44.790 --> 0:01:46.470
<v Speaker 1>a little bit in high school because my eyebrows are

0:01:46.510 --> 0:01:49.050
<v Speaker 1>really thick naturally. Like I just get them waxed. I

0:01:49.070 --> 0:01:51.880
<v Speaker 1>don't get them tinted or anything like that. which thank

0:01:51.920 --> 0:01:54.420
<v Speaker 1>God they grew back, by the way. And I remember

0:01:54.540 --> 0:01:57.090
<v Speaker 1>when I started going out nightclubbing, I'd go out and

0:01:57.130 --> 0:02:01.510
<v Speaker 1>I'd wear like thick silver glitter on my eyelids. And

0:02:01.530 --> 0:02:03.470
<v Speaker 1>it's kind of funny that I'm like, I guess I

0:02:03.730 --> 0:02:06.150
<v Speaker 1>kind of consider myself girly and I obviously, I was

0:02:06.210 --> 0:02:07.940
<v Speaker 1>a makeup artist and all that type of stuff, but

0:02:08.440 --> 0:02:10.360
<v Speaker 1>I never wore makeup in high school.

0:02:10.400 --> 0:02:13.459
<v Speaker 2>Like, sorry, that's a lie. I wore makeup from a

0:02:13.480 --> 0:02:14.580
<v Speaker 2>little bit from the age of 16.

0:02:14.580 --> 0:02:18.390
<v Speaker 1>So That's when I started wearing makeup and I was

0:02:18.430 --> 0:02:20.400
<v Speaker 1>very much so like growing up through school and that

0:02:20.410 --> 0:02:23.300
<v Speaker 1>I was very much a tomboy. In high school, I obviously,

0:02:23.320 --> 0:02:25.520
<v Speaker 1>I got a little bit more girly, but I, yeah,

0:02:25.919 --> 0:02:28.280
<v Speaker 1>I never wore makeup. Even my formal, so my year

0:02:28.280 --> 0:02:30.780
<v Speaker 1>10 and year 12 formal, I did my own makeup,

0:02:30.800 --> 0:02:32.660
<v Speaker 1>which was just like a bit of powder.

0:02:32.810 --> 0:02:33.260
<v Speaker 2>Like I never.

0:02:33.930 --> 0:02:36.400
<v Speaker 1>Like I don't even think, I don't remember wearing mascara

0:02:36.419 --> 0:02:39.680
<v Speaker 1>to be honest with you. So it's kind of funny how,

0:02:39.880 --> 0:02:41.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, after I went to uni and that I

0:02:41.500 --> 0:02:44.680
<v Speaker 1>ended up going to do makeup, but it's just, it's

0:02:44.700 --> 0:02:46.560
<v Speaker 1>not really fair, but I'm here. I'm like going to

0:02:46.580 --> 0:02:50.190
<v Speaker 1>be like your older sister or younger sister or whatever,

0:02:50.230 --> 0:02:52.950
<v Speaker 1>helping you guys get your makeup tips and hacks. So

0:02:53.470 --> 0:02:56.950
<v Speaker 1>we don't have to repeat our past mistakes again. So

0:02:56.970 --> 0:02:58.570
<v Speaker 1>this is where this episode is going to come in.

0:02:58.590 --> 0:03:00.650
<v Speaker 1>So whatever you are now, it doesn't even matter, but

0:03:00.690 --> 0:03:03.799
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to be really helping you out with technique

0:03:03.880 --> 0:03:07.280
<v Speaker 1>and just hacks and tricks and placement that will actually, honestly,

0:03:07.900 --> 0:03:09.840
<v Speaker 1>change the way your makeup is going to look and

0:03:09.880 --> 0:03:12.030
<v Speaker 1>feel for you. Now, of course, you don't need makeup

0:03:12.070 --> 0:03:13.650
<v Speaker 1>to be beautiful. I tell this to my girls all

0:03:13.690 --> 0:03:15.850
<v Speaker 1>the time, but if you are someone like me, I

0:03:15.889 --> 0:03:18.370
<v Speaker 1>really do enjoy putting on my makeup in the morning

0:03:18.470 --> 0:03:20.350
<v Speaker 1>and just feeling good for the day. And these are

0:03:20.389 --> 0:03:23.060
<v Speaker 1>also the things that I do, obviously, on myself every

0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:26.239
<v Speaker 1>day as well. So hopefully, if you guys think my

0:03:26.260 --> 0:03:29.630
<v Speaker 1>makeup doesn't look horrific, then let's get into it. Now,

0:03:29.669 --> 0:03:32.010
<v Speaker 1>the first thing you need to do before anything, and

0:03:32.050 --> 0:03:34.910
<v Speaker 1>this is honestly, if you can do one thing out

0:03:34.930 --> 0:03:36.890
<v Speaker 1>of all these tips, it is this. I want you

0:03:36.910 --> 0:03:39.560
<v Speaker 1>to find out your undertone. Now, it's not as hard

0:03:39.640 --> 0:03:42.920
<v Speaker 1>as what it sounds, but everyone tends to be either

0:03:42.980 --> 0:03:45.640
<v Speaker 1>more leaning towards warm, cool, or you can be a

0:03:45.660 --> 0:03:48.990
<v Speaker 1>bit neutral, which I'm a bit more warm neutral. Now,

0:03:49.110 --> 0:03:51.270
<v Speaker 1>this makes such a difference when it comes to makeup.

0:03:51.390 --> 0:03:53.450
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure in the past you've maybe, you know, popped

0:03:53.490 --> 0:03:55.500
<v Speaker 1>on some bronzer or put on something and it just

0:03:55.520 --> 0:03:57.780
<v Speaker 1>doesn't look quite right. You're just like, it just doesn't

0:03:57.800 --> 0:04:00.320
<v Speaker 1>look good. But then sometimes other colors look super good

0:04:00.360 --> 0:04:03.830
<v Speaker 1>on you. And that's also because of your coloring. Now...

0:04:04.790 --> 0:04:07.090
<v Speaker 1>You don't need a professional just to kind of work

0:04:07.190 --> 0:04:07.910
<v Speaker 1>out if you are.

0:04:07.870 --> 0:04:10.150
<v Speaker 2>More warm leaning or cool leaning. I'm going to help

0:04:10.190 --> 0:04:11.030
<v Speaker 2>you out with that now.

0:04:11.190 --> 0:04:13.510
<v Speaker 1>There's a bit of like a myth as well where

0:04:13.850 --> 0:04:16.830
<v Speaker 1>they say to look at your veins. So they usually

0:04:16.890 --> 0:04:20.100
<v Speaker 1>say if you have blue veins, you're more cool leaning.

0:04:20.140 --> 0:04:22.360
<v Speaker 1>And if you're green veins, you're more warm leaning. But

0:04:22.400 --> 0:04:24.839
<v Speaker 1>that's not accurate at all. So I want you to

0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:28.740
<v Speaker 1>look at things like I want you with like any

0:04:28.779 --> 0:04:31.200
<v Speaker 1>makeup on. I want you to like get a mirror

0:04:31.220 --> 0:04:33.850
<v Speaker 1>and go stand out near the sun. like where the

0:04:34.210 --> 0:04:36.450
<v Speaker 1>natural light is coming through the window and see if

0:04:36.510 --> 0:04:40.730
<v Speaker 1>you more lean towards like a peachy color or are

0:04:40.770 --> 0:04:43.760
<v Speaker 1>you more like a rosy pink. If your skin leans

0:04:43.839 --> 0:04:47.260
<v Speaker 1>towards more yellow, a peachy color, then you are warm.

0:04:47.540 --> 0:04:50.790
<v Speaker 1>But if it leans towards more rosy pink, then you

0:04:50.850 --> 0:04:54.510
<v Speaker 1>are cool toned. Now, If you still are not sure

0:04:54.550 --> 0:04:57.510
<v Speaker 1>about this, you can also think about what jewelry tends

0:04:57.529 --> 0:04:59.870
<v Speaker 1>to look best on you. Do you find that gold

0:04:59.990 --> 0:05:02.630
<v Speaker 1>really brightens you up and brings out your best colors

0:05:02.910 --> 0:05:03.810
<v Speaker 1>or does silver?

0:05:04.420 --> 0:05:05.500
<v Speaker 2>So if you tend to look.

0:05:05.360 --> 0:05:08.640
<v Speaker 1>Better in gold jewelry, you are warm leaning. But if

0:05:08.680 --> 0:05:13.300
<v Speaker 1>you look better in silver, you usually are cool toned. Now,

0:05:13.380 --> 0:05:16.490
<v Speaker 1>this is what is really important about this is because

0:05:16.610 --> 0:05:19.500
<v Speaker 1>with me, for example, because I'm warm, If I use

0:05:19.520 --> 0:05:22.260
<v Speaker 1>a cool toned bronzer, I'll pop it on and it

0:05:22.320 --> 0:05:24.680
<v Speaker 1>starts to look really muddy on me straight away. And

0:05:24.700 --> 0:05:27.720
<v Speaker 1>then sometimes things can look gray, like a gray kind

0:05:27.740 --> 0:05:30.440
<v Speaker 1>of color. And that's just because it's cool toned and

0:05:30.460 --> 0:05:33.260
<v Speaker 1>I shouldn't be using it. And the same with lipsticks.

0:05:33.320 --> 0:05:35.360
<v Speaker 1>If I use a lipstick that's cool toned, I kind

0:05:35.400 --> 0:05:39.219
<v Speaker 1>of look a little bit dead. So it's like something

0:05:39.279 --> 0:05:42.960
<v Speaker 1>so simple as this, as figuring out your undertone and

0:05:42.980 --> 0:05:45.960
<v Speaker 1>that's how you can work out then, okay, what colors

0:05:46.520 --> 0:05:48.690
<v Speaker 1>is best for you to grab? This is like, this

0:05:48.790 --> 0:05:52.430
<v Speaker 1>literally will save you with foundations. So for me, because

0:05:52.490 --> 0:05:55.590
<v Speaker 1>I'm warm leaning, if I grab a cool toned foundation,

0:05:55.690 --> 0:05:57.810
<v Speaker 1>it looks like a pinky color on me.

0:05:57.830 --> 0:05:58.830
<v Speaker 2>It just doesn't look right.

0:05:59.450 --> 0:06:01.530
<v Speaker 1>And then for other people, if you are obviously cool

0:06:01.550 --> 0:06:03.670
<v Speaker 1>toned and you grabbed a warm foundation, it's going to

0:06:03.690 --> 0:06:07.289
<v Speaker 1>look yellow on you and look not right. Now, the

0:06:07.330 --> 0:06:09.570
<v Speaker 1>next thing that is probably one of my most simple,

0:06:09.630 --> 0:06:12.540
<v Speaker 1>but it really is going to just change the game

0:06:12.560 --> 0:06:15.400
<v Speaker 1>for you getting ready in the morning. Because my, what

0:06:15.460 --> 0:06:19.219
<v Speaker 1>I really hate is I've always just hated mascara and

0:06:19.260 --> 0:06:20.500
<v Speaker 1>I think we all know it's one of those like

0:06:20.620 --> 0:06:23.880
<v Speaker 1>fiddly last steps of our makeup. A lot of us

0:06:23.920 --> 0:06:27.440
<v Speaker 1>hate it because, A, because it smudges all over us

0:06:27.820 --> 0:06:30.390
<v Speaker 1>and then it ruins everything, which stay to the end

0:06:30.410 --> 0:06:31.890
<v Speaker 1>because I'm going to be giving you the best hack

0:06:32.110 --> 0:06:35.710
<v Speaker 1>to get that off without ruining your makeup. Or B,

0:06:36.000 --> 0:06:38.360
<v Speaker 1>it makes your lashes like clump together and it just

0:06:38.480 --> 0:06:40.960
<v Speaker 1>doesn't look great. Like some days, like have you ever

0:06:41.000 --> 0:06:43.760
<v Speaker 1>just wondered like why does some days your mascara, you

0:06:43.779 --> 0:06:45.760
<v Speaker 1>pop it on and it looks like really, really good.

0:06:45.779 --> 0:06:47.860
<v Speaker 1>Your lashes are separated and then some days it just

0:06:47.900 --> 0:06:50.440
<v Speaker 1>doesn't look great and you've got like one giant fat

0:06:50.500 --> 0:06:53.720
<v Speaker 1>lash because it's all clumped together. Now this is because

0:06:54.200 --> 0:06:56.920
<v Speaker 1>you should warm up your mascara before you put it on.

0:06:57.240 --> 0:06:59.300
<v Speaker 1>So when you warm it up by literally, you could

0:06:59.339 --> 0:07:02.620
<v Speaker 1>pop it in your bra, you can like sit on it, whatever.

0:07:02.660 --> 0:07:05.640
<v Speaker 1>You can use the hairdryer. When you warm up the formula,

0:07:05.800 --> 0:07:08.900
<v Speaker 1>it will stop it from making your lashes clump together. Now,

0:07:09.339 --> 0:07:11.180
<v Speaker 1>this is just a game changer and it's going to

0:07:11.220 --> 0:07:13.120
<v Speaker 1>make it a lot faster to put your mascara on

0:07:13.230 --> 0:07:16.850
<v Speaker 1>as well in the morning. So that is my second hack. Now,

0:07:16.890 --> 0:07:20.510
<v Speaker 1>moving on to foundation. This is a big one because

0:07:20.670 --> 0:07:23.050
<v Speaker 1>have you, especially if you've got light hair, you would

0:07:23.130 --> 0:07:27.530
<v Speaker 1>hate getting foundation all in your hairline. Now, the best

0:07:27.570 --> 0:07:30.490
<v Speaker 1>thing you can do with foundation and any like complexion

0:07:30.550 --> 0:07:33.990
<v Speaker 1>type coverage is to you start from the center of

0:07:34.010 --> 0:07:37.410
<v Speaker 1>your face and work out. This is because by the

0:07:37.470 --> 0:07:39.710
<v Speaker 1>time you get to the edges of your face, like

0:07:39.770 --> 0:07:42.020
<v Speaker 1>where your hairline and everything is and near your ears,

0:07:42.060 --> 0:07:45.340
<v Speaker 1>you want the foundation to not have much product left.

0:07:45.700 --> 0:07:47.340
<v Speaker 1>So that's why it's always best to start in the

0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:50.600
<v Speaker 1>center of your face. But when I say this, it

0:07:50.680 --> 0:07:54.119
<v Speaker 1>is good to apply your foundation in sections as well.

0:07:54.260 --> 0:07:58.280
<v Speaker 1>And also, you don't have to apply your foundation evenly

0:07:58.320 --> 0:08:00.920
<v Speaker 1>across your skin in terms of thickness because that's when

0:08:01.300 --> 0:08:01.620
<v Speaker 1>it's going.

0:08:01.550 --> 0:08:02.460
<v Speaker 2>To look really cakey.

0:08:03.300 --> 0:08:06.600
<v Speaker 1>So make sure you are like, like less is more, right?

0:08:06.900 --> 0:08:09.100
<v Speaker 1>And this is the same kind of hack with the mascara.

0:08:09.140 --> 0:08:11.460
<v Speaker 1>I want you to pop your foundation, pump a couple

0:08:11.480 --> 0:08:13.500
<v Speaker 1>of pumps on the back of your hand and your

0:08:13.560 --> 0:08:15.520
<v Speaker 1>hand is going to warm up the foundation. So then

0:08:15.560 --> 0:08:18.200
<v Speaker 1>it's going to blend so much better for you and

0:08:18.220 --> 0:08:19.880
<v Speaker 1>it's going to like melt into your skin.

0:08:20.770 --> 0:08:22.770
<v Speaker 2>Now, this is definitely for my acne girlies.

0:08:22.930 --> 0:08:26.070
<v Speaker 1>If you struggle with acne and just like covering your

0:08:26.170 --> 0:08:28.750
<v Speaker 1>acne up, the best thing you can do before you

0:08:28.810 --> 0:08:31.670
<v Speaker 1>even put your foundation on is get your concealer and

0:08:32.070 --> 0:08:35.390
<v Speaker 1>And I want you to dab that on your pimples

0:08:35.429 --> 0:08:38.000
<v Speaker 1>and things like that and any imperfections. And instead of

0:08:38.040 --> 0:08:39.860
<v Speaker 1>then blending it, I want you to leave it for

0:08:39.920 --> 0:08:43.440
<v Speaker 1>like 10 to 15 minutes because it's going to let

0:08:43.500 --> 0:08:46.020
<v Speaker 1>it get like thick and dry, like it dries up

0:08:46.120 --> 0:08:48.790
<v Speaker 1>on that area. So when you are going to blend it,

0:08:49.250 --> 0:08:51.290
<v Speaker 1>it's not going to move around and then it's not

0:08:51.309 --> 0:08:54.170
<v Speaker 1>going to like make the imperfections come through again. You know,

0:08:54.250 --> 0:08:56.270
<v Speaker 1>it's so frustrating when you put concealer on and then

0:08:56.309 --> 0:08:59.079
<v Speaker 1>you try to blend it and then it's not even

0:08:59.120 --> 0:09:01.859
<v Speaker 1>covering your pimple anymore. So that is the best hack

0:09:01.900 --> 0:09:05.160
<v Speaker 1>you can do. I love the NARS Longwear Concealer for

0:09:05.179 --> 0:09:08.720
<v Speaker 1>this especially. So yeah, pop on your concealer, leave it

0:09:08.760 --> 0:09:13.400
<v Speaker 1>for 10 to 15 minutes, do your eyebrows, do your hair,

0:09:13.480 --> 0:09:16.090
<v Speaker 1>and then go back into your makeup again. Now, I

0:09:16.110 --> 0:09:18.750
<v Speaker 1>know everyone is obsessed with lash serums at the moment,

0:09:18.890 --> 0:09:21.209
<v Speaker 1>and if you are someone that really struggles to grow

0:09:21.370 --> 0:09:23.650
<v Speaker 1>thick lashes, this hack.

0:09:23.530 --> 0:09:24.370
<v Speaker 2>Is going to be the best.

0:09:24.390 --> 0:09:27.290
<v Speaker 1>Now, I love this so much, especially for when I

0:09:27.309 --> 0:09:29.450
<v Speaker 1>have an event and I do not want to wear

0:09:29.470 --> 0:09:32.550
<v Speaker 1>fake lashes. This trick I'm about to tell you about,

0:09:32.570 --> 0:09:36.690
<v Speaker 1>it will really make your lashes look very thick and

0:09:37.210 --> 0:09:39.050
<v Speaker 1>you won't feel like you need to wear fake lashes

0:09:39.090 --> 0:09:41.120
<v Speaker 1>but it's also something you can do for every day

0:09:41.170 --> 0:09:44.339
<v Speaker 1>so it's not like too full on. Now this is

0:09:44.380 --> 0:09:46.000
<v Speaker 1>something I used to do for my clients all the

0:09:46.059 --> 0:09:50.510
<v Speaker 1>time especially even with fake lashes and this is So

0:09:50.550 --> 0:09:53.260
<v Speaker 1>when you have sparse lashes, the thing that really gives

0:09:53.280 --> 0:09:57.969
<v Speaker 1>that away is the flesh colored gaps between your lashes. Now,

0:09:58.110 --> 0:10:00.650
<v Speaker 1>all you have to do is grab your favorite eyeliner.

0:10:00.710 --> 0:10:03.949
<v Speaker 1>That's obviously safe for that area and like your waterline.

0:10:04.370 --> 0:10:06.770
<v Speaker 1>And you're going to fill in those flesh colored gaps

0:10:07.050 --> 0:10:10.680
<v Speaker 1>between your top lashes. So the best way, like I

0:10:10.740 --> 0:10:13.760
<v Speaker 1>like to kind of like put my finger on my

0:10:13.940 --> 0:10:16.500
<v Speaker 1>upper eyelid and push back a bit, and then I

0:10:16.520 --> 0:10:19.800
<v Speaker 1>can see the top lash line better. And then I

0:10:19.820 --> 0:10:22.670
<v Speaker 1>just grab pencil and i fill in the top lash

0:10:22.710 --> 0:10:25.469
<v Speaker 1>line and this is just going to darken the roots

0:10:25.610 --> 0:10:27.460
<v Speaker 1>of your lashes and that's going to give you that

0:10:27.580 --> 0:10:31.220
<v Speaker 1>fake lash effect without having to wear bloody fake lashes

0:10:31.280 --> 0:10:33.600
<v Speaker 1>that feel like you want to rip it's like you

0:10:33.620 --> 0:10:35.120
<v Speaker 1>know when you take fake lashes off at the end

0:10:35.140 --> 0:10:36.560
<v Speaker 1>of the night and it feels like you've just taken

0:10:36.600 --> 0:10:38.800
<v Speaker 1>your bra off we don't have to do that anymore

0:10:39.480 --> 0:10:42.100
<v Speaker 1>this is one of the things i see most commonly

0:10:42.140 --> 0:10:43.710
<v Speaker 1>with people and i used to do it as well

0:10:44.170 --> 0:10:47.190
<v Speaker 1>But if you want to really lift your face, especially

0:10:47.530 --> 0:10:49.989
<v Speaker 1>if you're someone 30 plus and you just want to

0:10:50.010 --> 0:10:53.750
<v Speaker 1>like lift the face, lift your features up, apply blush

0:10:54.820 --> 0:10:57.420
<v Speaker 1>near your cheekbones, like on your cheekbones. Now, I know

0:10:57.440 --> 0:10:59.420
<v Speaker 1>we're so used to having blush on the apples of

0:10:59.500 --> 0:11:02.540
<v Speaker 1>our cheeks, but if you're having blush lower on the face,

0:11:03.080 --> 0:11:06.160
<v Speaker 1>it's going to drag your features down. So applying blush

0:11:06.480 --> 0:11:09.120
<v Speaker 1>on your cheek, like I literally apply my blush like

0:11:09.320 --> 0:11:12.580
<v Speaker 1>on my cheekbones now, and it lifts your whole face.

0:11:13.170 --> 0:11:16.080
<v Speaker 1>And with blush, it doesn't just have to stop on

0:11:16.120 --> 0:11:16.679
<v Speaker 1>the cheeks.

0:11:17.440 --> 0:11:18.500
<v Speaker 2>It's really beautiful.

0:11:18.540 --> 0:11:22.939
<v Speaker 1>Like when you're wearing a really beautiful natural blush, think about,

0:11:23.100 --> 0:11:26.340
<v Speaker 1>so obviously when we're wearing blush, we're recreating that flushed look.

0:11:26.950 --> 0:11:30.030
<v Speaker 1>And when we're naturally flushed, if you are a supermodel,

0:11:30.210 --> 0:11:33.150
<v Speaker 1>and see, I just get flushed on my nose like Rudolph,

0:11:33.190 --> 0:11:36.670
<v Speaker 1>but let's just pretend we're perfect at the moment. You

0:11:36.710 --> 0:11:38.870
<v Speaker 1>would get it in other areas of your face. So

0:11:39.270 --> 0:11:42.850
<v Speaker 1>I will put blush on my cheekbones like yep quite

0:11:42.890 --> 0:11:44.890
<v Speaker 1>high and then I also pop some on my nose

0:11:45.390 --> 0:11:47.170
<v Speaker 1>and even a tiny bit on my forehead and even

0:11:47.250 --> 0:11:50.969
<v Speaker 1>chin and this is also where you can take it

0:11:51.010 --> 0:11:53.290
<v Speaker 1>a step further and this is what's going to really

0:11:53.590 --> 0:11:57.130
<v Speaker 1>make your mornings go even faster is my favorite product

0:11:57.150 --> 0:12:01.699
<v Speaker 1>to wear on my eyelids is my face products so

0:12:01.720 --> 0:12:04.640
<v Speaker 1>I will just use my normal fluffy cheek brush like

0:12:04.679 --> 0:12:07.790
<v Speaker 1>my blush brush and I will when I'm finished putting

0:12:07.809 --> 0:12:09.910
<v Speaker 1>my blush on my face, I'll use the leftovers and

0:12:09.980 --> 0:12:12.720
<v Speaker 1>pop it on my eyelids. And because the brush is fluffy,

0:12:12.760 --> 0:12:16.300
<v Speaker 1>it actually deposits the product on your eyelids to be

0:12:16.340 --> 0:12:18.520
<v Speaker 1>more diffused. So it looks like it's already been blended

0:12:18.600 --> 0:12:21.150
<v Speaker 1>by like an eyeshadow brush. So that is like the

0:12:21.210 --> 0:12:23.110
<v Speaker 1>best hack and I tend to do that most of

0:12:23.150 --> 0:12:25.590
<v Speaker 1>the time now. I also do it with my bronzer.

0:12:26.100 --> 0:12:28.939
<v Speaker 1>So use your face products on your eyelids and don't

0:12:28.980 --> 0:12:32.040
<v Speaker 1>forget blush isn't just for the cheeks. Now going back

0:12:32.120 --> 0:12:35.500
<v Speaker 1>to colouring and it is another mascara tip but this

0:12:35.540 --> 0:12:37.320
<v Speaker 1>is I feel like mascara is one of the pain

0:12:37.340 --> 0:12:41.660
<v Speaker 1>points but have you ever thought that maybe black mascara

0:12:41.720 --> 0:12:46.080
<v Speaker 1>isn't the best colour for you? So for me I'm fairer.

0:12:46.360 --> 0:12:49.750
<v Speaker 1>I'm my color analysis type is I'm a light spring.

0:12:49.850 --> 0:12:53.370
<v Speaker 1>So I have, you know, blue eyes, I have lighter features.

0:12:53.470 --> 0:12:56.790
<v Speaker 1>So for me, black has always really looked quite stark

0:12:56.870 --> 0:12:59.069
<v Speaker 1>on me. And I used to always think like I would,

0:12:59.550 --> 0:13:01.170
<v Speaker 1>even when I was a makeup artist, I would just

0:13:01.200 --> 0:13:02.840
<v Speaker 1>be like, I wish I could pull off a really

0:13:02.880 --> 0:13:05.300
<v Speaker 1>dark smoky eye. And it just, it was just too

0:13:05.380 --> 0:13:09.260
<v Speaker 1>strong for my features. But honestly, if you are a

0:13:09.300 --> 0:13:11.900
<v Speaker 1>bit more fair, if you've got lighter features, switch to

0:13:11.940 --> 0:13:15.199
<v Speaker 1>brown mascara and watch how much it opens up your

0:13:15.360 --> 0:13:17.380
<v Speaker 1>eyes and it just looks so much more natural but

0:13:17.440 --> 0:13:20.800
<v Speaker 1>it still makes your lashes look thick and amazing so

0:13:21.000 --> 0:13:23.680
<v Speaker 1>definitely give that a go now here's a bit of

0:13:23.700 --> 0:13:27.610
<v Speaker 1>a lip lining tip because remember like when Kylie Jenner

0:13:27.630 --> 0:13:30.630
<v Speaker 1>started really over lining her lips and then She said

0:13:30.670 --> 0:13:32.330
<v Speaker 1>she hadn't got lip filler and all the things, but

0:13:32.370 --> 0:13:35.250
<v Speaker 1>we're not here to discuss Kylie's choices in life, but

0:13:35.820 --> 0:13:38.320
<v Speaker 1>lip liner is so amazing. And as you guys know,

0:13:38.340 --> 0:13:40.900
<v Speaker 1>I actually got lip blushing done the other week and

0:13:40.920 --> 0:13:43.579
<v Speaker 1>it was so, so good. I love it, which I'll

0:13:43.840 --> 0:13:46.300
<v Speaker 1>do another episode on that later. But when you are

0:13:46.400 --> 0:13:48.900
<v Speaker 1>lining your lips and you want to overline them to

0:13:48.940 --> 0:13:53.080
<v Speaker 1>make them look fuller, only overline the cupid's bow. Because

0:13:53.140 --> 0:13:55.920
<v Speaker 1>if you're overlining the edges as well, that's when you

0:13:55.940 --> 0:13:59.580
<v Speaker 1>get that like frog look mouth look and it doesn't

0:13:59.620 --> 0:14:02.550
<v Speaker 1>actually make it look fuller and natural so if you

0:14:02.590 --> 0:14:05.050
<v Speaker 1>do want to overline your lips a little bit just

0:14:05.230 --> 0:14:07.829
<v Speaker 1>overline the cupid's bow and just the bottom which is

0:14:07.870 --> 0:14:11.170
<v Speaker 1>also in the center and also you can contour your

0:14:11.210 --> 0:14:14.290
<v Speaker 1>lips with lip liner so you can do a darker

0:14:14.330 --> 0:14:17.880
<v Speaker 1>tone lip liner on the edges and then in the

0:14:17.960 --> 0:14:20.740
<v Speaker 1>center you can also do like a lighter color and

0:14:20.780 --> 0:14:23.060
<v Speaker 1>that can also be to do with lipsticks as well

0:14:23.760 --> 0:14:27.040
<v Speaker 1>Now to my final tip for this one, I've got

0:14:27.140 --> 0:14:29.420
<v Speaker 1>so many more makeup tips, but these were my favorites

0:14:29.480 --> 0:14:31.100
<v Speaker 1>and I wanted it to be a really, just like

0:14:31.240 --> 0:14:33.420
<v Speaker 1>a light and easy episode as well for you guys.

0:14:33.500 --> 0:14:36.000
<v Speaker 2>But with your mascara, when.

0:14:36.040 --> 0:14:40.380
<v Speaker 1>It smudges on your eyelid and you've just like finished

0:14:40.400 --> 0:14:42.660
<v Speaker 1>your whole face, you've popped on your mascara and then

0:14:42.700 --> 0:14:47.290
<v Speaker 1>you're like, my life is ruined, leave it. Do not

0:14:47.310 --> 0:14:49.430
<v Speaker 1>touch it because you know what happens when we try

0:14:49.450 --> 0:14:51.930
<v Speaker 1>to take it off? it smudges and it makes it worse.

0:14:52.010 --> 0:14:55.110
<v Speaker 1>So if you leave it to dry, you can literally

0:14:55.670 --> 0:14:58.190
<v Speaker 1>get your finger or a cotton tip or even like

0:14:58.210 --> 0:15:01.770
<v Speaker 1>a spoolie, like the mascara spoolies, and it will flake off.

0:15:02.650 --> 0:15:03.490
<v Speaker 2>It's that simple.

0:15:03.690 --> 0:15:06.090
<v Speaker 1>So all the times we've ruined our makeup over the years,

0:15:06.130 --> 0:15:09.010
<v Speaker 1>you've just got to leave it alone. So makeup artists,

0:15:09.030 --> 0:15:11.010
<v Speaker 1>like for myself, like when I would do weddings, I

0:15:11.030 --> 0:15:14.530
<v Speaker 1>would constantly, like it happens, because you really want to

0:15:14.610 --> 0:15:16.290
<v Speaker 1>put a lot of mascara on their lashes. So you

0:15:16.360 --> 0:15:19.060
<v Speaker 1>can get it under their eye, you can get it wherever,

0:15:19.080 --> 0:15:21.300
<v Speaker 1>but you just leave it. Because imagine if we had

0:15:21.320 --> 0:15:22.940
<v Speaker 1>to start again, leave it alone.

0:15:23.500 --> 0:15:26.020
<v Speaker 2>Don't touch it. It will dry and it will flake off.

0:15:26.600 --> 0:15:28.540
<v Speaker 1>Anyways, guys, I hope you enjoyed today's episode.

0:15:28.560 --> 0:15:29.500
<v Speaker 2>I know it was a little bit different.

0:15:29.520 --> 0:15:32.150
<v Speaker 1>If you want more makeup hacks and things like that,

0:15:32.190 --> 0:15:33.670
<v Speaker 1>maybe I could do, I was thinking of doing like

0:15:33.690 --> 0:15:36.130
<v Speaker 1>a monthly favorites episode because I.

0:15:36.630 --> 0:15:38.210
<v Speaker 2>Feel like it's like, I don't know.

0:15:38.230 --> 0:15:39.830
<v Speaker 1>I feel like a lot of us are just wanting

0:15:39.850 --> 0:15:41.990
<v Speaker 1>like the old school content again.

0:15:42.010 --> 0:15:43.310
<v Speaker 2>And it's just like, I don't know.

0:15:43.630 --> 0:15:46.410
<v Speaker 1>I love watching people's favorites and it doesn't have to

0:15:46.450 --> 0:15:49.100
<v Speaker 1>always be products, but I can also throw some tips

0:15:49.120 --> 0:15:51.810
<v Speaker 1>in each month as well. Anyways, guys, I'll be back

0:15:51.910 --> 0:15:54.180
<v Speaker 1>in your ears next Monday and I'll see you then.

0:15:54.200 --> 0:15:54.270
<v Speaker 2>Bye.
