    I can’t wait to try this technique today! I’m 27 but I’ve noticed when I’ve used concealer and powder under my eyes, they look dry and crepey.
    While I’m writing this comment I’d just like to say that you are absolutely stunning. I hope I could look this fantastic when I get to your age! 🧡

    Melissa! Yes oil works wonders before applying concealer. I’ve been doing this for years but I’m going to add something to this that I’ve been doing for quite a few years I’m almost 50. I prefer to use an oil like olive oil or the oil you suggested under my eyes as soon as I wake up. I put quite a lot so it’s slick. Then I apply a silicone pad on top of the oil that I cut in little squares ….and leave it my eyes for long as 20 min to an hour… Talk about smoothing the skin out and making a difference before you apply your make up… it’s awesome! I had surgery and had the silicone pads from my scars and one day I decided to put the silicon strips under my eyes after I put on the oil and wow it makes such a difference I do it every morning. Especially if you’re puffy! Just a little tidbit. 🙂 I do have a link to the silicone pads on Amazon if you’re interested. They are about $20, you can cut then fit your eyes. 😉 They can be washed and reused.😄

Nothing has helped my concealer not settle in my fine lines, so I usually just choose not to wear concealer. Going to give that Vaseline formula a try. Thank you!

    I started out, in my teens, using regular vaseline as an eye makeup remover, & have noticed that helped my concealer go on smoothly, once I began using it in my 20's. Meaning, just the residue or conditioning that my skin received from using the vaseline the night before will now have to find this particular vaseline lotion & give it a try.

    Omg. I loved your video... My mom always use to call me the sun worshipper. Lol. I would literally cover my entire body in baby oil and lay on the trampoline with a sprinkler underneath then when I got too hot I'd lay in the pool for awhile. I did this damn near everyday for atleast an hour a day... I NEVER used any kind of sunscreen. I'm only 30 but my skin used to be super oily and now it is sooo dry and dehydrated. Recently, I seen the trick of applying oil afterwards... I have always had horrible dark circles with bags and the whole eye area is crepey... It has got muchhhh worse since I have gotten older and my skin is so dry. So I truly appreciate videos like this. Your makeup looks amazing. I love seeing something other than millennials on here... I feel like it's easy for them to do makeup perfectly... It's muchhhh harder when your skin starts to mature... So I have to give you props because your makeup is amazing.

    I tried it.. it helped! I'll be 46 tomorrow and I've got those crepey eyes under the entire eye. BUT I also read that Vaseline can be used on the WHOLE face as a primer because of the way it smooths everything out, so I tried it with this lotion, and it REALLY works! I still spray my regular primer water on, but right before I put my foundation on, I applied the lotion, and it just looked great! It didn't take as long to apply the foundation, and it went on a lot smoother. It stays longer too. I'm definitely doing it that way from now on

      @@katebutt you put any sprays on the skin first.. rose water, toner, special items for the skin. Next, put any serums or oils on.. vitamin c, niacinamide is good, etc. Let dry, then put any lotions on. The last thing you put on before makeup is sunscreen. So, thinner to thicker items in order so the skin soaks it in well. Then put Vaseline lotion on, let dry. Primer water helps your makeup adhere to your skin and you won't have to fix your makeup throughout the day nearly as much.. spray or pat it on after the Vaseline lotion. Not straight Vaseline. Rose water is a GREAT primer. It's great for your skin overall, can be used for hydration, primer, and even as a setting spray after you do your makeup, which seals the look and is less likely to smear. I use Advanced Clinicals G-Glow Toner for them all. It has vitamin c too so I no longer need vitamin c serum. It has rose water. It is WONDERFUL. Got on Amazon for $12 I think. Anyway, spray that on, pat it in your skin, and let dry. Then, put your face on. Then use primer, Rose water, whatever to seal. You can also use hairspray as a seal in a pinch 👍 any more questions, just ask me. I'm almost 50 and the products I use are great but cheap, none of the expensive junk

    You are absolutely beautiful!! I am nearly 20 years younger than you, yet I have been battling the same under eye crepey & bags for the past 10 or more years, and have still not figured out how to prevent it from being so noticeable. I cannot wait to try this Vaseline and the other oils that you use, as it is clear that you have mastered the crepey underline wrinkle drama like a champ!
    However, you did mention “I have bags and will always have them,” which TBH, I think I have finally discovered a vanishing act, that works really well. I found this little trick on the Sephora website, and I will leave you the link. But basically, when watching your video, the “bag,” appears as a dark blue/purple line. Utilize a orange cream or liquid color corrector (I use a q-tip and add the tiniest little dots of orange directly inside of the blue/purple line, and then very gently with the smallest brush ever, just gently tap until the orange is covering the line/bag. Then go over with a self-setting concealer (that is about 2 shades lighter than your foundation), and add it to your entire under eye!
    This works, because you can only correct blue/purple with its opposite on the color wheel- “orange!”
    You do not apply the orange to the entire under-eye, but only into the dark line (I also have the dark on the inside of my eye- where it meets with my nose. So I put a dot on the inside of my nose as well.) it literally disappears like a magic trick!
    Hope this helps you, as much as you have helped me! Thank you sunshine, for brightening my day!

I have highlighted hair that you have inspired me to make even blonder and cut some off to wear it more like your style. Seeing your style on your face, I think it will work for me.

    • @ageoflistening
      @ageoflistening 3 года назад

      @@abc-gy8oc I put it everywhere to great success. I would give two bits of advice though for the under and over eye lids.. Don't scratch or rub the area to try to get rid of any peeling quicker.. You will undo all the hard work the retin a has done whilst making tour eye area worse. And two, go slow and build up that areas tolerance and have some form of cream that your skin can handle that won't sting on those days when your skin needs hydrating but it's still a little sensitive. The area will look bad before it looks better, just like any other part of the body that you use retin a and those days it just needs moisture and leaving it alone. I have no wrinkles around my eyes and the skin looks lovely and taut BUT I always use an eye cream every am and pm after washing so I don't over stretch the skin unnessarily and I NEVER rub my eyes. I've been doing it for 5 years and that's my protocol. The under and over eye lids are never forgiving and so I always keep them hydrated with a gentle eye cream. I'd also do both together or the tightening won't be natural. I used to have hoods now I don't and I used to have lower eye wrinkles now I don't. But I've been using it for the face for over 10 years so my face is very used to retin a and I use it almost every day. Keeps the hoods and under eye wrinkles away. But I'd caution that all skin is different and all skin takes different time to adjust. But a tiniest amount used over the whole eyelid area has never done me any harm to my eye sight and has only benefited my over all face. It shrinks skin area whereever you put it when older so putting it just on the top or just the bottom would make you look uneven and put unwanted pressure on the skin that it already taut which is why I put it everywhere. I do stay half a cm away from the lashes because this stuff will naturally move forward with sweat and general movement as you sleep anyway. But I'm not keen to retin a my eyeball. This is my experience only and can only be given as my opinion on what I do not advice. But you asked and I love it.

    You must be a very soft spoken women, I am on a brand new tablet and the volume is all the way up and couldn’t hear most of your presentation except a few times when you leaned closer to the screen. I am interested in what you have to say and I was compelled to write so you were aware the volume of your voice is spotty. I did have my 2 daughters and a girlfriend watching your video at the same time, useing thier own personal devices just to make sure, and they experienced the exact problem with the inability to hear you as me except when you leaned into the screen for closer demonstration purposes. I so admire and appreciate you lifting up other women, giving us tips, and educating us on new trends on how to apply makeup as palettes, colors, & techniques evolve. After all, even most women know that what was current in the 80’s, wouldn’t enhance how we have evolved thru the years,( not like the beauty industry, thank God it’s has kept evolving, and the years haven’t affected it!, lol) and there are so many women who are in need of the guidance that women like you offer. You help to accentuate thier unique beauty, which In turn helps many remember that yes, they are in fact beautiful, and when you wake up a memory like that, you change lives. Thank you Melissa

    Hello, just happened to scroll and found your channel!! Love it! I also have started using oil on my face recently. I love a dewy look, although it's not as dewy as you would think once you put the foundation on, but I know I'm doing great things for my skin while using oils. I make my own oil concoction after researching the best oils for the face. (looking at doctor's videos). I believe that Baobab oil is the best oil on the market for the skin, some doctors even recommend using it with cancer patients to put on their skin after chemo and radiation. The healing effects are amazing. So I take a dropper bottle, fill it half way with Baobab oil, then even amounts of jojoba and sesame seed oil (not roasted), with 3 drops of sea buckthorn oil. Can't use too much of that because it is really yellow, but a great antioxidant. I use it every morning over my moisturizers. I get more compliments on my skin that I ever had due to the oil's healthy and glowing effect.

      @@youniquebymelissaover50bea30 I found the Baobab oil on Amazon. It was a bit difficult to find and I also mix it in with my body moisturizer. There are a few skincare companies that sell products based on Baobab oil, but they are overpriced. I use a derma roller every two weeks and use the oil afterwards. Great way to get the benefits deeper into the skin. Especially around my wrinkly knees!! LOL

      @tall blonde, was wondering if the oils you use are great for all skin types, or did you do research based upon your specific skin type? I tend to have exceptionally dry skin, that only gets worse during the winter months. Do you tend to be dry, oily, or combination?

    • @tallblonde4
      @tallblonde4 2 года назад +2

      @@kristaljoyner2278 I have dry skin as well, and did my research to find that Jojoba and Sesame oils are easily absorbed by the skin. Heavier oils, like Olive oil, have larger molecule and just "sit" on the skin instead of actually be absorbed. I am a licensed aesthetician and have known for quite a while about the benefits of baobab oil. I used to use a product made from baobad only because I learned from one of the owners of this company, that a well known medical hospital reached out to her about the uses of baobab oil to help ease the effects of chemotherapy on skin of the cancer patients. It's not called the "tree of life" for nothing! LOL
