      This, I can totally see a Christine McConnell collab with besame or one of the high end luxury brands with this type of packaging.
      I kind of want a tutorial on making that eyeshadow pallette.
      I love pretty packaging for palettes.
      Edit: d'aw should have seen the full video before commenting. I've signed up to patron just to see that tutorial. Best money I've spent during this trying time and I don't feel guilty about delivery. Thanks!

      There's a company called Zeesa and they do really gorgeous makeup packaging. They have an Egyptian line and the lipstick cream has hieroglyphics on them!
      Edit: Talking to my mom who owns the lipstick, the company is actually called Zeesa and they have many different collections, including one with art by Picasso!

      @Funny Lady it's hard to imagine, but I bet Christine wasn't born with talent. She just did it a lot untill she became the master that she is and she keeps trying new things (I imagine when you already know a lot and have a lot of practice, you can always apply some skill you already have to new things). You can clearly see that she enjoys the process of making things, and that's the most important. If you start doing something and see it doesn't bring any fulfillment you can search on google and see if you can buy the stuff already made or someone to personalize it for you (if you are well off)

      @evelynzlon9492 Год назад +2

      She obviously doesn't need foundation. Not one drop. Makeup ages your skin in the long run so you shouldn't wear it if you don't need it. We all need powder to set concealer, rouge etc. And there's the dilemma. Because powder may be more drying and aging than foundation, and the foundation provides a barrier between the powder and the skin. Primer may do the job without the need for foundation. I'd look into it.

    The vintage containers are beautiful. I'm the type at the moment to rush through my makeup, but really only because I don't have a lot of time, especially with the kids home right now. I do tend to spend a good amount of time on my brows. I plucked them into near oblivion in the Great Tweeze of the 90s and more or less have to create new ones every time I go out. But if nothing else, that's the one thing I make sure to do.

    You are so classically beautiful when you first came on screen you looked like you were wearing a very fresh minimal makeup look. I love that you put your makeup in those lovely antique bottles and containers. Art does not have to be reserved for picture frames and walls. The aesthetics of our everyday items as well as every single thing we choose to surround ourselves with speaks volumes about who we are. I know you agree because that's kind of your bread and butter, so to speak. I love your unique, interesting, beautiful art. Thank you for sharing.

    Every time I watch Christine, she always reminds me to reset my timeframe and slllooowww down, enjoy the beauty of things that I’ve forgotten - those things that I’ve spent my whole life collecting! That’s why I have all these beautiful things - it was that initial caring of atheistics and the silly idea of make up in beautiful containers and enjoying the process of putting make up on, if you don’t then you’re not enjoying the journey of life and you need to re-evaluate things. That’s the glamorous part of being a girl and it’s easy to get wrapped up in everything else and forget- it feels good pampering yourself❤️

    Your videos kept popping up in my recommendations, but for some reason I never clicked because I thought I wouldn't like them. Boy oh boy I was so wrong. You are a delight to watch and you have a similar magic to what the Studio Ghibli films manage to inspire, which is a love and respect for everything around you. I adore your passion for making the things around you more interesting, being crafty and recycling. I can't wait to see more of your content, particularly in a time like now where everything seems grim. I'm stuck at home but after watching your videos I'm thinking of all the craft projects I can start. Thank you and keep up the amazing work.

    What about the Cake Mascara from Besame Cosmetics? It comes in a tin as well or you can get just the refill cake so you can use your own tin. I love their vintage recreation lipsticks that are copies of real vintage colors from many eras.

    Christine, love all your videos- as a professional MUA, I especially enjoyed this makeup tutorial. One little tip to make mascara from drying so quickly, is to use a few drops of saline solution. I also wash/sanitize the brush frequently as the mascara will last longer. I have also used murine- I actually prefer this as it adds a bit of lubrication. You can also use both for cake eyeliner. Your eyeliner will stay on longer than with regular water. I love the fact that you use cream blush and set it with powder. Not many know this trick. I finish my makeup with MAC Finishing Spray. In my opinion, it is the best- you always look flawless, so you don’t need to use this. With my oily skin, it is the only thing that keeps my makeup intact for up to 16 hours.
    I was trying to tell my Mom about you. The best way I could describe you: the most beautiful, most creative and talented person I have ever come across. Love every video you have posted. I am in awe with all you do! It all started with the video restoring your wallpaper in your California home. Thank you for sharing your life, home, your little lives and especially, your endless talent!

  • @curselee1097

    Firstly, of course, I have to swoon and fawn over how AMAZINGLY gifted you are. Your endless creativity and spooky glamour aesthetic are inspiring and coveted by many, myself hardly excluded. Simply put, you are adored, and I adore you.
    Secondly, I had an tiny idea for your mascara; since you're having trouble transferring it into a more desirable container, you could always build a new container around it! You could use old rectangular mirrors from makeup compacts to create a mirrored container and then add a little painted or sculpted symbol on the sides or the lid, or you could find a perfectly sized container to fit the mascara base and lid inside of, or even simply carve out a beautiful little wooden one yourself to fit it into....the ideas are infinite! I need not say more, as I have no doubt you'll find the perfect solution on your own--you always do. Just thought I'd add my two bloody cents.
    It's like I always say: if you can't lead the horse to water, drown the damn thing. *wink*
    Ta ta, you darling thing!

    Finally someone who understands why it takes me over 4hours to do my makeup ( not including my hair) I find it very soothing to put on and lately I have lost quite a few family members and I need to really take my time and honor myself and the memories of them to take my time and prepare myself for what I have a hard time with. I have found that the more people who I loose I have a difficult time just going into the world every day and makeup helps me relax and prepare myself to go outside.

    This was so relaxing to watch. I think that using the tissue to blot after applying foundation and concealer makes a lot of sense. It would absorb some product that is "sitting" on the face attached to small hairs that could stand out and appear cakey after powder. The setting spray in the antique perfume bottle is amazing I was waiting for that!! The solid perfume balm was great too. Your aesthetic is dreamlike and full of charm and mystery! 😍✨💄

    Makeup is the one area I really take my time in as well and this was such a lovely video. I’m always in awe of the detail and care you put into everything you do. I’ve always wanted to deport some of my products into other things once I’m settled in my own house. But never thought about setting spray in an atomiser that’s genius. As usual really enjoyed this thanks Christine.

    Juno Birch is amazing! I’d recommend looking at her Vogue “Extreme Beauty Routine.” There are also several other artists on that series that may appeal to you, if you enjoy eccentric or avant-garde makeup and clothing. Jaymes St. James has a series called Transformations that has an aesthetic that falls under the same sort of umbrella. Lastly, there are so many other drag queens like Trixie Mattel or Kim Chi who do amazing things with makeup. Thank you for being such a beautiful creative inspiration - I love everything about your videos.

    • @silvergirl7810
      @silvergirl7810 4 года назад +2

      Not to take away anything from their artist mojo but I watched Juno birch vogue and I didn’t come close to getting anything from the purple concealer etc- it was more, to me, a showcase about the extreme art that was being created- which I appreciated but I got nothing there for makeup tips. Maybe for inspiration? I don’t know. Lisa Eldridge - on the other hand, she had really good tips.

    • @drmollycules
      @drmollycules 4 года назад +4

      Silvergirl7 That’s a pretty reasonable response I’d say. I think if you’re looking for creative and interesting ways people wear makeup, Juno Birch is a good channel for you. If you’re looking for tips on how to do your makeup, you’re right, those channels might not be as useful. I really like Robert Welsh for realistic, everyday makeup tips, and everyone will have their own preferences, but I think there’s something for everyone out there.
