I was so happy to hear you explain why contouring should be done with a grayish-brown color in order to look natural! Real shadows aren’t warm, and “contouring” with a bronzer, while it can be very pretty and is a lovely way to warm up the skin, will never realistically simulate shadows on the skin (e.g., to narrow the nose). You always provide such smart, well-informed beauty advice! ❤️
Oh my goodness Lisa! This is so helpful to me! Thank you so much for these teaching videos! I love makeup but I am 71 years old and I have to keep working on how to apply things in different ways than I did when I was younger.😀👍🏻🌹
Thank you, Lisa, for mentioning forehead contouring. I, also, have a small forehead so I never contour that area. I've seen so many women who have small foreheads, yet contour there anyway. It just makes a small forehead look even smaller. So loving this series!
Another great video! The difference between contour and bronze was so informative. I learned I am a bronzer more than a contourer. I cant wait for the eyes. Thanks Lisa

Love that you keep it real, you specifically mention when it looks great in camera but not in real life. I’ve always wondered how it really looks in person when youtubers add layers and more layers of makeup 🤨
Also wanted to say love this natural approach to contour and highlight. I’m close to your age. It seems like most of the RUclipsrs do such a dramatic look that I just don’t like on me. Thanks so much!
I agree with her observation that many people just copy what they see others doing and don't necessarily do what's the best technique for their own face. I've been confused watching RUclipsrs that pile on the contour AND bronzer cuz I always think, why both products? What's the difference really? Only thing I could determine is bronzer usually has some shimmer. This tutorial was so informative and finally helped me understand the difference!
Hi lisa. Just when I was watching you pout for the blush application I realised you have a god gifted face. The highs and lows of your face are just right and enhance your beauty. Never ever go under the knife.
I definitely just followed along with this video doing my makeup this morning. Perfect instructions on how to place and apply everything. Looking flawless today thanks to you!🤗
You gave us such a wealth of information! This is my favorite step in makeup application and I'm so glad you went into detail about the technique and how to find products that will work for what effect you want. Thank you!
Thank you, LIsa! I really LOVE and APPRECIATE your videos. Your explanations are very thorough, and I really appreciate all the subtleties you explain, regarding application techniques and selection and use of brushes. Your videos reinforce the makeup application techniques I learned, decades ago, and understand, and your thoroughness and explanations have allowed me to improve and refine my makeup application. AND I am learning how to better use the variety of products and brushes in which I've invested. I only recently found your channel, last week, and your videos have already helped me with my application techniques and inspire me to continue to improve so I can present myself in the most flattering way possible. I am on a tight budget; but, your recommendations have already allowed me to CONFIDENTLY buy some new makeup products and makeup brushes, without the uncertainty that I might be wasting my money on another product that I won't like or know how to use. I do watch and enjoy the content of other RUclips make-up channels; but, only yours has filled the makeup education 'niche' for me, that I needed. I would love to know if you might have any recommendations for a drugstore contour palette. Thank you.....
I always learn something really unique from your videos Lisa! For instance, I struggle with contouring my nose trying to draw a straight line down each side then blending that out. The way you did the nose is so much softer and natural looking. And much easier for me! Thanks for these amazing training videos.
Thank you so much. Love the way you teach....so simple and a lot of details. I also don’t want to look made up with make up and your tutorials has helped me to achieve that look.❤️
Love this series you’re doing! You are the perfect person to be doing this, you are so articulate and you explain everything perfectly! I’m in Florida - we have similar weather so sweat-proof tips are appreciated! Thx.
You’ve explained everything about contouring, blush, and highlighting so well...and I thought I more or less, knew what I was doing. But you took it straight down to the correct and best and best methods and product types for me. I feel I now really know what I’m doing! I didn’t comment right after I saw this; I started right away following your instructions exactly and from my first go, it was A, B, C, etc., and done, successfully. I am so happy to not be doing this anymore in an iffy manner, hit or miss. You cleared it up just right. It really works. I’m getting the Hour Glass highlighter, too, it’s hard to apply little enough highlighter at my age, but it does make such a nice difference when done just so. I can’t thank you enough for these wonderful videos. Much love.✨💖✨
You are such a breath of fresh air on RUclips. I know you've been around for awhile, but I just recently found you and have been binge watching your channel 😘😘
Love this because contouring is intimidating to me. Lol. Bronzing too in a way. I have a better understanding now because of you. Simple and sheer. 😊❤😊
Your explanation of where and how to apply products is great!! You are right about it not being to long so you can absorb the information and try it on yourself. Thanks 🙏. Yes it is hot in Texas but the bluebonnets are blooming so we know the heat is next!
Thank you for these vedios now I understand more.I never could never figure out contouring. I now know I don't need this.love you always watch u.Thanks for sharing.
This was very helpful! In fact, I was contouring with bronzer and today I tried my Contour colors instead. I also didn't have the nose quite right but think I have it now! Thank you!
I love this series. I wish it had existed a couple of years ago when I first got into makeup, I was so confused then and thought I'd come a long way but I am learning so much from this. Thank you Lisa! (Like someone else said though we'd love drugstore options too!)
Wow! I always thought that you need to highlight with a shimmer highlighter, this is very helpful. I’m going to try it tomorrow. Thank you so much for sharing your tips and tricks with us!
So beautiful Lisa! I never got into contouring, maybe I should have, but I just prefer a more natural look like you. I loved your suggestion for highlighting....that’s my next investment. Thanks again my friend for your professionalism and sharing tour amazing experience with us! 🥰
Thank you!! This is so informative! Also, I live in Austin (that sweaty Texas struggle is so real!) and have large cheek pores as well so your advice on cream vs powder and highlight textures/finishes is really helpful. It's is hard not to get caught up in fad products so it's really reassuring to be reminded that it's totally okay to just use what works for you and where you live. Can't wait for the rest of the series!
Very informative! Thank you for showing us these great tips and also which size brush you prefer and the reasons for using each size...it’s very helpful. I love this highlight and also prefer it to be more subtle. 🥰
This was a ripper video Lisa! Thank you so much for unravelling the mysteries of face powders! A while ago I read that peach based blushes are best for mature skin. Just wondering if there is any truth to that. And that cream based products are better too. They scare me a little bit as I feel I don't have as much control. This could simply be because I'm not used to them. I reside in South Australia where we swelter through summer but the rest of the year is lovely.
Thank you!! Cream blushes are gorgeous! They can seem intimidating but a good one will blend out and sheer out like a dream! I really like the Wander beauty blush and highlight stick its so nice and easy to blend out
Wow! You're a great teacher! The explanations are so clear, and I think that every woman who loves makeup and makes up on a daily basis should learn your tips! Thank you again! 😍 Shira
I was so excited when I saw the second video in the series. I am one of those ppl you mentioned. I have an oval face, long and thin. It is a blessing at times, any sunglass looks great on me, but it makes applying bronzer, contour and especially blush a huge challenge. I have no cheeks...lol or practically none. I'll have to replay your very helpful video a few times and will watch your prior video too. Thanks Lisa. This series is genius. Can't wait for the next video ❤❤❤❤
Lisa, you talk about having a round face ~~ only if round means “perfect”🥰. Thank you so much for all of the great information🤔 I understand contouring your nose for teaching purposes BUT please don’t mess mess with your perfect naturally perfect nose🥳
Aww, Angela you are so so sweet!! Thank you xoxox I try not to complain about my features... I use to dislike my round face and my wider nose, but I wouldn't change it even if I could. Its me, and its what I see in my daughters features now too , I NEVER want them to hear me complain about my looks or my body so I have become more aware of that kind of talk in my head. :) xoxo
Wonderful information! I am going to be more aware of the areas I have texture. Matte or satin blush is my friend LOL. It's so funny because I notice when my makeup looks better but never realized what was making it look better on certain days. Now I totally get it, thank you!
I really enjoy your new videos especially broken down into the segments you have done. Just wondering if you could do the same with drugstore products as the products use cost ££££’ sss I’m a working mum and products used are so high end I only can afford a few in my make up selection. Love from Manchester U.K. keep up the great videos I look forward to notifications of your next video upload. X 😍🇬🇧🏴🇬🇧🏴
Loved loved your explanation of how contour makes highlights stand out more and how they are opposite!!! Loving bronzer so much!! This was so so good Lisa!! Loved it!! Xoxoxo
Love, love, love your explanations of the different products. For the eyes, how do you pick which colors go together for your eyes? The colors I choose seem to muddy. So I'd like to know how to choose. What color, besides brown, looks good with blue eyes? Thank you so much! So excited for tomorrows video!!

Hello Beth
No matter what you’re talking about your kindness just jumps off the screen...I love that! So so pretty Lisa. Thank you for the tips. ❤️😍😘

@@lisajmakeup 😌Hi. What Brush u used for contour. And blush?
@@lisajmakeup 😄 I'm going to Ulta tomorrow and I wanted to know what brushes to buy

These are so very helpful for a mature newbie! Thank you Lisa
Love that you keep it real, you specifically mention when it looks great in camera but not in real life. I’ve always wondered how it really looks in person when youtubers add layers and more layers of makeup 🤨
Thanks Lisa watching it again :-)) The blush is so lovely all blended into the contouring. oxox

Thank you 🙏🏼 Lisa. Very informative
Thanks friend! xoxo
Love, love, love your explanations of the different products. For the eyes, how do you pick which colors go together for your eyes? The colors I choose seem to muddy. So I'd like to know how to choose. What color, besides brown, looks good with blue eyes? Thank you so much! So excited for tomorrows video!!
