I always love checking to see if you've posted a vid cause your content is honestly like therapy for me. Btw I got that Revlon dupe in "On Fire" and it is fire. It's such a pretty color.
I’m 2 days post op from hand surgery, so I’m really feeling this video!! Attempted my makeup today for the first time with my non dominant hand….I think I’ll be staying home for a while…. 🤣🤣🤣
I really notice the change in your skin since your started going to the derm. You look glowing and I don't notice pigmentation like before! Wow! Amazing results really! You don't even need foundation in my humble opinion.
Totally fabulous, you're so right about lightening the makeup look when you are tired (especially around the eyes). As I have oilier skin, I tend to avoid the glow. But you are so right about going easy on the powder when looking tired (or like a zombie) !! I'm definitely going to follow your tips.. Thanks.. (-:
I love that you used lipstick for cheeks and lids. I’ve been using my cream blush on my lips and lids for a year or so now when I’m feeling lazy cause I love the monochromatic look, and my eyes and eyebrows are super dark and I feel like it looks so rosy and French (??? Idk why) and I love it. I always feel so feminine and soft and glowy!
@@katm8128 honestly I’m still figuring that out. My favorite one to use is from Honest beauty and one day I used too much and it creased and looked horrrrrrrible. So I’d start with something that’s more on the matte side cause that seems to work best at least from what I can tell, and don’t overdo it. Start small and you can always put more on next time to see how it wears!
Funny thing is, when I feel like sh*t I do a full glam with the biggest eye makeup. This takes a long time, a long time to forget about what I’m stressed about
Depends on the type of feeling like sh*t, lol. I'm severely chronically ill, and while I LOVE doing glam looks with lots of color and being creative, most days I just plain don't have the energy, or the hours it would take me if trying to have an outing. So I'm trying to get better at this style of makeup, even though it's not really my favorite to do or wear unless I'm going to the pool. Just a spoons thing.
@@candi6642 feel this on so many levels! Chronic illness is no joke. Especially the lack of energy. Most days I'm even too tired to put on mascara although I love the look of more glam, eyeshadow etc. (and I have to say if I have the time and energy to do it once in a blue moon, it really does help brighten my day). Can't believe I did a full face every. single. day. (and sometimes even curled or straightened my hair too) before I got sick 😅
This is really helpfull, you made me feel inspired not to compulsive play videogames when Im stressed and who knows do some art on myself. Doing a full glam with the biggest eye is a challenge tho cause I have no skills lol
@@Cathlynn23 Sorry, I just saw your reply! I'm sorry that you're dealing with it too. It has been lifelong for me, so I don't really have a "before I got sick" time, but it has also progressed over time, so I do get what you mean. I actually didn't learn how to really do makeup right until after I was mostly bedridden with CRPS and forced to slow down. Picked it up as a hobby, but I do love it when I'm able to do the full glam thing, it definitely can be a pick me up! I never could go go go every day, but on the "good days" I would do makeup, and do hair. I still sometimes blow out and straighten my hair, but it's gotten super thin and is pretty short right now, which I don't love, but makes it easier. Still usually just air dry if I'm just hanging out at home. It used to be long and thick, much more challenging, but I was more able to do it back then too. The struggle is real! 🤗
I'm loving your 'lipstick in the finger' method for blush. Using a lip liner (instead of lipstick) gives amazing staying power. My favourites are MAC lipliner in Subculture and Maybelline Super Stay Ink Crayon in just about any colour. Thanks for the great video.
In a hospital bed, day 8 recovering from covid.. feeling like crap..haven't washed my hair in 8 days..but am on the road to recovery..loved your look today, soft and dewy. I need this
Tbh, I haven’t been on RUclips as much this past month, so I’m just coming back to your channel and HOLY CRAP YOUR SKIN??? LOOKS FLAWLESS????? I can tell you’ve been taking your skincare really seriously and it’s so exciting to see it working for you! ❤️
Whatever trials/stipulations you are facing, I hope they work in your favor man. You encourage a lot of people. And the people you encourage would totally understand if you want or need time off. 💗
My biggest tip is to look at your "Resting Sick Face" because that is the face you're going to be pulling most of the day when you don't have energy. Mine is very droopy with narrower eyes and lower frowning brows so I adjust placement based on that.
Alexandra, you are a natural beauty, with well defined features, but for me I need to draw them for the last 20 years, even when I am not feeling my best. Doing my makeup is my pure therapy and since the lockdown I discovered I enjoy doing colorful looks as well. Makeup brightens up my day just with the process. Like singing, like dancing, like any hobby. Does everyone get it now - makeup is not about the way you look - is about how you feel!
That eyebrow technique is actually so smart! I usually do brow gel to keep my hairs up, and then use a pencil to fill in the sparse areas. But with a pencil it’s easy to over do it. I love how it looks with the shadow, it fills in the sparse areas without it looking too harsh, and it still gives that defined brow look!
Honest time, i've been deep diving into depression in the last couple-ish of months. Getting back on track has never been harder. I clearly don't have the same quality of skin without the effort it needs of course, but the dark circles care and manageable tutorial is, frankly, a godsend. Thank you and whoever asked for the s#@& tutorial!
@@baileydubs I messed up my eyebrows really bad one time (when I was a beginner) I literally scrubbed the shit out of them that I lost all of my hairs and had a nasty red burn! Never again!! 🤦🏻♀️
Gorgeous. Thank you for taking the time to walk us through this look! Almost reminiscent of Lisa Eldridge ‘less is more’ techniques- love her, and you! Definitely inspired me to try it out.
For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone. Love from Korea 🇰🇷💕
Love your makeup, lighting, background, and you do an amazing job at having the camera so close to your face, while looking amazing all at the same time!
OMG. How does Alexandra read my mind? I haven't slept in 2 days and I look and feel like total crap. It seems like every time she puts out a new video it's so relevant to what I am going thru. Love it!!!🥰👏💕
As a registered nurse, daily the only thing I show is my eyes. I do a super dramatic eye with lashes to feel like some part of me stands out from the mask, shield, and scrubs❤️ Pat McGrath dramatic eye looks are my daily staple that only takes 15 minutes. No face products, because there is no point 🥰
Precious, I am sorry you are so stressed. Life is really hard sometimes. Thank you for bringing something good out of a hard time and using it to benefit others. Wishing you a night of rich, dreamless sleep.
Love how healthy and moisturized she always makes her skin look. I grew up during a time where people would powder the hell out of their faces so there wouldn’t be any shine whatsoever bc that was considered as looking “greasy” and “oily”. I hated it. Everybody looked like freqking dolls with their super matte faces and not like humans with natural glowing skin. Love you alex❤
I really appreciate these tips for when you feel like shit…3 yrs fighting cancer has aged me 20 yrs and I must say it sucks! I love watching your videos. On top of that I have always had dark under eye circles. So, thank you for your advice on those bad boys too. ❤️
This is why you're my favorite beauty RUclipsr. You keep it real, you're funny, you have my weird skintone and dark circles, and your videos are super helpful. Thank you!
Gurl you’re glowing!! So pretty!! It looks like you’re well hydrated like you drank 100 cups of water and it’s showing!! ✨your skin looks like glass!! 💕
That lip stick you used for blush & eyes🤯 I'm so buying the crap out of that lipstick fn loved it!! Hope it looks as good on me, I'm light olive but get darker in summer 🤎
I love the difference a little makeup makes on blah days. Tinted moisturizer, highlighting blush, mascara, and a tinted lip balm or gloss. It's just nice to look in the mirror and think "I look nice today". If I need to feel like a bad bitch I'll add winged liner and a bold lip.
Now that's my kind of tutorial. I'm a teacher and we are going through the last two months of class before vacation. Lots of things to do, not enough sleep, you get me. Thank you!
Your voice is so soothing. When I get off night shift I listen/watch your vids while I eat in my bed. Also so appropriate. I’ve been up for over 30 hrs. GNIGHT! ily 💖
I can’t believe that I just watched it till the end. And I am not even interested in make up, but I was absolutely amazed by your face and your personality 🐱
LOVING colorful highlighters as blush toppers. All the shades I can't wear as highlighter alone (I'm too pale) look beautiful over blush. Current faves are the Digial Dusts from Melt in Phoenix (copper rose) and Pink Moon (medium pink) - both currently on sale from Sephora. Highly recommend!
your skin looks absolutely fucking amazing omg. it just looks like you're wearing foundation but you're not. ommmggg Alex , now I am going to watch all your skincare videos.
I love the tarte hydrocealer in 25H. It’s the perfect color, and it’s a natural coverage that covers the dark circles. Sigma eyeshadow primer to give a little color back to the eyes while canceling out the tiredness. Ash brown brow pencil from fenty. And brown mascara from colourpop, the au natural one. Put on some lip gloss and I’m out the door!!! Love this series ♥️
I hit like before I even watched the video because 1. I adore you and 2. This is the video I didn't even know I needed. I'm disabled and I often struggle with makeup because it's physically difficult and I feel terrible.
Becca Undereye corrector, ABH brow powder and clear gel, Glossier Lash Slick to open my eyes. That's my minimal but awake makeup. Maybe a very light peachy matte on the lid to cancel out darkness or just a eye primer with some pigment
This makeup is just lovely and your skin is just to die for. I always want to do light, natural makeup like this, but my acne and the texture on my skin is awful so it just never works.
Awwww :( hey! Don’t let that acne stop you! And if you feel like it’ll ruin it but still feel like doing it, you could always practice at home and see how it turns out! My skin was in a terrible situation a year ago but I got into skincare this pandemic and my texture and acne are way better. If you have the time I’d recommend watching videos from derms here on RUclips and slowly building your routine. Best of luck ❤️
Little life hack: I’m not sure if it is well known or if you’ve ever tried it, but to dampen the sponge before foundation and concealer, spray setting spray on it! I’ve found that it helps my makeup apply better and stay on longer:)
@@Fruit_bat19 I haven’t had it feel sticky!! If anything, i feel like it kinda makes the foundation easier to rub off and blend. I find that it works better than water surprisingly. Let me know if you end up trying!
This is the perfect amount of effort for me. Thank you. I love this look! How long does it last? What kind of touch ups do you typically do throughout the day?
Charlotte tilbury Hollywood flawless filter. I cannot & will not live without. It gives my skin a glow but also has a tint that helps even out my skin tone. Sometimes I just wear it as a foundation with a little blush, mascara & gloss. Guaranteed to give me compliments 💁🏽♀️
Concealer, blush, and a light lip is the most I can do when I feel like garbage. What you demonstrated is like my daily minimal look. Thanks for the info in how to improve it. Products I like for my look like this are: 100% Pure Mascara in Dark Chocolate (mostly because it smells like chocolate and never irritates my eyes), Physicians Formula Organic Wear blush in the pink color (will add name later), Revlon lip (add later) in Honey, ELF Hydrating concealer in Light Peach, and Palladio brow powder in Taupe.
I just love you for the caption!!! I've been waiting for years to someone to put a video about this on RUclips. You are the queen. I'm obssesed! OK bye. I'll go to watch the video now. 😂❤️😅🤩
Girl, your "feel like crap" makeup is my "going to a big event" makeup. lol When I'm feeling bad, it's tinted sunscreen, concealer, brows... maaaaybe a scotch of bronzer and some mascara if I'm feeling ambitious. Done.
If only. With pale olive skin you need copious amounts of blush and at least a little color on the lips, unless you're going for the mostly dead look. Especially when feeling poopy. Sometimes I pine for a rosy complexion, lol.
@@trackee2024 Are you a more tan or deep olive? It just depends on the color, can be tricky to find flattering shades too, many can look garish. It also depends if your tone is warm or cool, I have zero pink in my face naturally and look sallow. There's also muted vs not, high or low contrast, and admittedly I don't have all that fully figured out yet. I just know blush has been necessary to look alive for me since childhood.
Your nails are beautiful! Love the classy red tip. …right after I typed this I got to the part where you said I hate my nails I don’t wanna talk about it LMAO
Basically, when you feel terrible but you don't wanna look it..just use all your makeup techniques but at like 25-50% 😂
YESSSSSS! 💯🤣
I always love checking to see if you've posted a vid cause your content is honestly like therapy for me. Btw I got that Revlon dupe in "On Fire" and it is fire. It's such a pretty color.
I seriously have been up around 72 hours with maybe 2 hours of sleep. So, this tutorial is great. My dark circles are poppin today.

Thankyou thankyou thankyou!!! This is meeeeeee 🤣
This is literally what men think no makeup looks like lol.

It's so easy and pretty! I love implementing my other makeup products throughout my face so it all looks like it's meant to be there 😂❤️
I find it so funny that people are again using techniques that we used decades ago, as we couldn't get all the makeup products we have now! 😂
@@lindatannock makeup is just art! and artists always have to work with the tools they have on hands ☺
How do you keep the cream blush from creasing on your lids? ❤️
@@katm8128 honestly I’m still figuring that out. My favorite one to use is from Honest beauty and one day I used too much and it creased and looked horrrrrrrible.

Perfect timing. 37 weeks pregnant and literally could not care any less about trying. So bless you for this video 🙏🏻😂

Me: Oh my god I love her nails
Her, literally not even half a second later: I hate them

Becca Undereye corrector, ABH brow powder and clear gel, Glossier Lash Slick to open my eyes. That's my minimal but awake makeup. Maybe a very light peachy matte on the lid to cancel out darkness or just a eye primer with some pigment
This makeup is just lovely and your skin is just to die for. I always want to do light, natural makeup like this, but my acne and the texture on my skin is awful so it just never works.
Awwww :( hey! Don’t let that acne stop you! And if you feel like it’ll ruin it but still feel like doing it, you could always practice at home and see how it turns out! My skin was in a terrible situation a year ago but I got into skincare this pandemic and my texture and acne are way better. If you have the time I’d recommend watching videos from derms here on RUclips and slowly building your routine. Best of luck ❤️
I promise you that we're way more critical of ourselves than we should be. I'm sure you look lovely!
This video makes me so happy!! Thank you for filming it!
I love that you used a lipstick for your blush, and a color called 'blush' as your lipstick.
Your personality is so very cute and sassy!
Could you do a VS video on the Anastasia cream bronzers and jacklyn hill ones? Yours is the only opinion I trust
Little life hack: I’m not sure if it is well known or if you’ve ever tried it, but to dampen the sponge before foundation and concealer, spray setting spray on it! I’ve found that it helps my makeup apply better and stay on longer:)
I've been wanting to try this but I kinda assumed that the sponge would feel sticky? Like does it work as well as water?
@@Fruit_bat19 use a dewey setting spray instead of a matte one and typically it will feel like water instead of hairspray lol.
@@gabe5518 oooh thanks I'll try that!
@@Fruit_bat19 I haven’t had it feel sticky!! If anything, i feel like it kinda makes the foundation easier to rub off and blend. I find that it works better than water surprisingly. Let me know if you end up trying!
Excellent for these times and for PMS days 🔥
This is the perfect amount of effort for me. Thank you. I love this look! How long does it last? What kind of touch ups do you typically do throughout the day?
I love using the tinted hydrator from wet and wild when I don’t have time or energy. Gives the skin a glow, and just evens everything out
Charlotte tilbury Hollywood flawless filter. I cannot & will not live without. It gives my skin a glow but also has a tint that helps even out my skin tone. Sometimes I just wear it as a foundation with a little blush, mascara & gloss. Guaranteed to give me compliments 💁🏽♀️
Okay but why does your skin legit look perfect before u even started 😩😢❤️
I owe it all to my dermatologist 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
@@AlexandraAnele looks beautiful 🤩
Concealer, blush, and a light lip is the most I can do when I feel like garbage. What you demonstrated is like my daily minimal look. Thanks for the info in how to improve it.
Products I like for my look like this are: 100% Pure Mascara in Dark Chocolate (mostly because it smells like chocolate and never irritates my eyes), Physicians Formula Organic Wear blush in the pink color (will add name later), Revlon lip (add later) in Honey, ELF Hydrating concealer in Light Peach, and Palladio brow powder in Taupe.
I just love you for the caption!!! I've been waiting for years to someone to put a video about this on RUclips.
You are the queen. I'm obssesed!
OK bye.
I'll go to watch the video now.
😂❤️😅🤩
😂🙏🏼❤️
Your skin is looking so clear and beautiful. I also love a tutorial like this.
Liquid lipstick as blush and eyeshadow is good, as is bronzer. Blush and bronzer just make such a big difference.
omg your glowing 💫BTW your nails are cute
This will be my new favorite go-to make up for my models. Thank you so much. I love the spring fresh dewy look 🌸
Your skin 😍😍😍😍😍 Literally like glass it looks stunning !!!
Girl, your "feel like crap" makeup is my "going to a big event" makeup. lol When I'm feeling bad, it's tinted sunscreen, concealer, brows... maaaaybe a scotch of bronzer and some mascara if I'm feeling ambitious. Done.
When I go to a big event I wear mascara and eyeliner, I commend all the humans out there who know the art of make up and can do all this stuff 👌
@@narutofox180 Absolutely... it's an artistic talent!
If only. With pale olive skin you need copious amounts of blush and at least a little color on the lips, unless you're going for the mostly dead look. Especially when feeling poopy. Sometimes I pine for a rosy complexion, lol.
@@candi6642 olive complexion with heavy dark circles here! 👋 I honestly never wear blush or lip color … I think it looks clownish on me?
@@trackee2024 Are you a more tan or deep olive? It just depends on the color, can be tricky to find flattering shades too, many can look garish. It also depends if your tone is warm or cool, I have zero pink in my face naturally and look sallow. There's also muted vs not, high or low contrast, and admittedly I don't have all that fully figured out yet. I just know blush has been necessary to look alive for me since childhood.
Ooo i love the brown mascara! You look so gorgeous
Wah!
I love your taste! Its just goooddd!
And love this look . Looks very natural!
Thank you! 🙏🏼❤️

Your nails are beautiful! Love the classy red tip.
…right after I typed this I got to the part where you said I hate my nails I don’t wanna talk about it LMAO
