I love these types of videos because it reminds me of when I first started wearing makeup in high school! Then I discovered a little thing called RUclips and came across YOUR channel back in the elf brush days! Love you and thank you for the consistently great reviews. ❤️
I love that one. Did it used to just be a number? I want to say it was 666 which was how I remembered the color. It was the perfect 90s grunge lip color. I still use it and it's still perfect
Heh, I managed to burn myself on the waterline using that technique waaay back when I was in junior high (I’m 50). Was touching up after PE, so I had to finish the day with a slightly swollen and very sore eye. Still have the scar, and liner refuses to deposit on it, so I always have a bare spot lol. I’m extremely fortunate it wasn’t any worse. Moral of the story is don’t use this method, especially if you value your eyes💁🏻♀️👀🙆🏻♀️
Haven't watched in a while but I remember the early days of her channel when she was a news anchor and she did a vlog where she woke up VERYearly, during the nighttime, to be ready to go for the morning news. It's incredible.
I wish I was an early riser! I work for a tv network and know some breakfast show production staff wake up 3am for a 4:30 call time. I don't think I can do those hours! Really appreciate Emily not half-assing her early morning shoots on top of being a busy mom. I love her inputs on various products and techniques - not the usual beauty youtuber spiel you hear from the wanna-be-famous lot (for a lack of better term)
“There was that one girl” lol yes this is true! I’d creepily ask this girl at my middle school what are you wearing on the inner corner of your eyes? She was the first person I EVER saw wear brighter colors and glitter on the inner corners. I was so stoked when she commented on my MySpace page.🙈😂
I started with Covergirl Clean foundation and powder as well as a blush and Maybelline for eyes. Love the old school products and like to see them used again.
I just turned 47 today and I remember back in the day ,when I was a teenager, my Mom sold Avon and that's how we got 99% of our makeup. I loved looking over the Avon book for hours while picking out an order. Good times.. lol. 😀
@@janetyamashige9573 lol i still use the noxzema anti blemish pads every now and then. I also totally remember ponds. I remember my mom had a jar of it in the bathroom for the longest time growing up and the smell just brings back soo many childhood memories.
Emily is the real deal...no nonsense and so articulate...every word that comes out of her mouth actually makes sense. I remember all of those and owned most of them. Loved the vid. I'm a teacher so everyday make up is pretty basic and all these products did/do the job without too much thinking!
This is an awesome video 💞 You look gorgeous and glowing as always, but 10 times over, with your "baby" glow. I love it. Emily, I'm much older, almost 54, and back in the 9th grade, 1979, Cover Girl had a quad eyeshadow palette, it has a lovely blue and green. There was a sorta champagne color, but I ain't sure of the 4th color. I'm thinking it was a pink. Oh girlie, I've been looking for that one, to no avail unfortunately. But I did find the blush/highlighter trio I used wayyyyyy back then. I was so excited when I saw it at the Walmarts. It's the pinky colored one. And wayyyyyyy back then, I'd do a monochromatic look with that trio. I'd use it for eyeshadow. And when I'd do a blue look or purple, I'd always sweep a bit of the medium color across the whole lid. And always blue mascara. I started out with the only one I could find and it was a dark navy one by Aziza. Then I discovered the Great Lash bright blue one. But later in my mid-late 20's, I discovered one by JANE, it was named grape curl, but it looked blue. Unfortunately that is no longer, so I now use a Hard Candy one. The Great Lash is too thin of a formula for me. But I do have some, so I just wave the wand a bit, to get it drying up some before I apply. I find that to be quite effective and kinda solves the too thin of a formula for me. Just a little tip about getting mascara on your lids, let it dry and it will flick right off. I also has that CG liner in the blue. I kinda wanna think they had a purple as well, I thought the sponge tip was pretty cool to smudge it. And how bout those highlighters by PF, that are in a round compact. There's a pearl and a darker champagneish color. And I love those PF strips. I had the pinky one, now I only have the bronzey brownish one. Now after watching this video, I'll be on a mission to find the color you have and the pink one. I think they're a great eyeshadow as well. Me and my using blushes and bronzers for eyeshadows. Been doing that for so long. I had lots of fun watching this video with it's, blasts from the pasts. 💞 Love your videos 💞
I’m so thankful for your channel! There is no drama, no childishness or on again, off again “friendships” (I hardly call those relationships friendly), just fun, makeup- and other stuff- related videos and you are so real and so genuine. Thank you! ❤️
Anglmill The difference is the wand. You can choose the classic spoolie one or a newfangled laser cut plastic comb like one. Of course they probably changed up the formula
@@arxsyn I always just get the classic wand, and the waterproof formula. After trying so many new and high-end (i.e. overpriced!), I just ended up going back to this one!
Loving your shirt in this video em 💕🌻 also love the fact that you still do videos like this ! You don’t even know how much I enjoy it when u talk about older makeup and do shop my stash videos and things like that ! I appreciate you so much for helping us remember to enjoy what we have and not to always need to buy new products to feel excited about makeup ! I know I have some really really good makeup that needs to be used more before I continue to bring in new things and I’m sure I can speak for most makeup enthusiasts when I say that the media is soo pushy for people to buy new and always need the new and the fact that you show your genuine enthusiasm and excitement for those cult classic faves or those hidden gems that we forget about , it just really inspires me . Idk i could sit and hear u talk about your passion for makeup all day long 😂 love u em ! Been quietly watching u for years and ya just wanted to say thank you ! For so much more than u know 💕😘
Shimmering sands was the first makeup product I ever bought and it was thanks to you. This reminded me I should revisit it. Thanks for the lovely video!
My first ever foundation was the old Cover Girl in a bottle - It smelled like Noxema. It was probably a suntan color, even though I'm pretty fair. That and some KIssing Potion or Lip Smackers.
Love how you talk about that “one girl”. In my case, small town, her dad owned the pharmacy so she had access to all makeup right when it came in. She always had the best stuff.😃
The maybelline concealer is the only concealer I use to this day 👏 Also I remember buying that maybelline powder per your recommendation when I first got into makeup😱
Ashley Christine - same. I won’t use anything else on my under eyes. Although I did recently try that new super light creamy concealer from maybelline in a stick & IT IS NICE! I never in a million yrs would’ve thought I’d take to a stuck concealer but this is nice for anywhere in the face and it’s invisible on the skin. Unlike the age rewind is for brightening.
I love that I share your excitement in the OG makeup. Yes, makeup has feelings. Wow this takes me back. For a long time I felt like I moved on from the drugstore being a makeup artist and this reminds me that there really are some amazing products. The fact that these products have held the test of times, says it all!
I'm still using the Cover Girl Aquasmooth Compact Foundation. It is the best for oily skin. I'll try other products, but always come back to the Aquasmooth. It's probably been on the market for 15 - 20 years! Thank you, Emily, for this trip down Memory Lane!
This is so cool that your doing a video of your old school favorites because lately I have been going back to watch a lot of your older videos. Like the ones you filmed before you & Tyler started having kids in the old apartment.....those videos are the bomb. They are still so helpful to me and I have been going bad to those a lot lately as a reference guide for myself for tips that I found so helpful for years now. But they are also just so entertaining and fun; they take me back to another chapter in my life too. So I absolutely love those just as much as the more current videos. I SO loved watching this, you just have no idea lol. Thank you for another wonderful video! 😊
My OG drugstore product will always be L'oreal telescopic mascara. it's the only mascara that has ever worked for me and it can never, ever be discontinued!
The Maybelline Age Rewind Concealer in Neutralizer is the only concealer I have owned since 2017, and I don't even have a desire to try out different ones!
I still give Great Lash a go every 5 or so years, to see if I still have a bad reaction to it. It was the holy grail mascara in the 80s! I wore it in blue, naturally :)
This was such a fun video to watch.....nothing like a stroll down memory lane! It's kinda crazy how much the makeup world has changed over the years and the zillions more options available now, it's almost overwhelming. I love the simple, back to basics idea!
You got a pretty look out of this, but honestly my takeaway from this video is that drugstore makeup has gotten a LOT better and more interesting lately! (Still love that Maybelline concealer though.)
Yup. CG Perfect Point Plus eyeliners. The ONLY reason I still use it is because it has a very unique “smudger tip” that no other eyeliner has & it allows me to create the perfect cat eye with a pencil liner. It’s sooo fast and easy. I have to go over it with an eyeshadow using a flat liner brush or the liner will smudge but I also darken my beauty mark with it too. 😊👍💚
the falsies is still my holy grail mascara! ive tried some of your drugstore faves over the years (supersizer, lash paradise), but falsies just works great on my lashes 😁
Revlon Cherries in the snow lipstick! My mom wore it, it was my signature red back in the day, and now my 33 year old daughter recently rocked it. I feel like the only mascaras I have ever used are Maybelline great lash in the pink and green tube for YEARS. At some point years ago I switched to L'Oréal Voluminous, and in spite of occasionally trying the latest hyped mascara, I keep going back to L'Oréal voluminous. I might look for the great lash... would be fun to try that again.
The regular maybelline the falsies was and still is one of my favorite mascaras ever, it’s amazing for longer, thicker lashes! Really makes a huge huge difference
I loved the video. I graduated from high school in 1975 and am sixty-one. I wore Merle Norman pressed powder and a pale pink Max Factor lipstick selected by my aunt and my grandmother. A young lady didn't wear blush or eye makeup until you were older according to their experience. I loved them for caring enough to want the best for me.
Glad Cover Girl still makes the old school quads! Shimmering Sands was probably one of the first CG eyeshadows I ever used! In fact I bought it again recently and used it the other day! Also the Pure Romance quad...that was also one of my favorites back in the day. And they still make it! Thanks for a great video, Emily!❤️😁
OMGosh! I remember you reviewing the Maybelline mineral power! You had a haul video on it, and you did a review, and I think this was when you were filming in your living room in front of that couch!
So LOVE your channel! You always put out the most practical, fun & informative vids! They are always so useful & are way more REALITY based. Especially in comparison to a lot of the other beauty vids. You’re looks are always purposeful. Don’t get me wrong, I can appreciate a wild makeup look for its artistic expression. But, for me, I use makeup for practical reasons. Concealer to diminish dark circles, bronzer to add warmth & definition to my face, blush to add “life” to my face, mascara to intensify the look of my lashes, mid/dark shadows in my crease to give my eyes better definition. So there’s a reason & rhyme for what I apply & where. It’s not just wearing hot pink & green shadow for “fashion” or because it’s pretty. But that’s just me. Love you Emily !!
My first makeup products included the Dr. Pepper Lip Smacker and the blush gel. I think my first blush gel was pink and my big sister's was peach. We used to swap colors. My first powder was their loose one, and my first "highlighter" was a cream called "White White". Cheers! ~Anastacia in Cleveland (the OG home of Bonne Belle)
@@janetyamashige9573 LOL! That is what I used to wash my face. I would rinse it off afterward because it left a slightly sticky residue on my face. It didn't do much for my acne even though that was supposed to be one of it's uses.
I remember getting ready to go out in 2006, taking FOREVER to do my eyeshadow, and my mum commenting I spent ages doing my makeup only to look like I wasn't wearing anything. Looking back, it's because I had no idea about eyeshadow primer, brushes, and pigmented shadows. I used to actually buy packets of sponge tips, layer and layer and layer my cheap shadow on (because I thought $20 was too expensive for a palette and cheaper ones would work the same, how wrong I was), and still end up with a barely there look. RUclips honestly taught me a LOT!
I would love to hear a rundown of drugstore bb/cc creams - if there are any you would recommend. I always planned on buying the Aveeno CC cream you recommended once upon a time but it looks like it’s discontinued 😢
Congratulations on the new baby coming soon. I'm 45 so my first makeup was max factor pancake foundation with cover girl clean pressed powder that I still use to this day. I then used max factor panstick until it was discontinued. I have dry skin now and switched around foundation for years until returning to cover girl clean foundation and it's so good and nostalgic with how it smells. I mix a little of their bb cream in with it for added spf. Thank you so much for this video. I've always bought drugstore makeup so I really appreciate your videos. Oh btw you are beautiful and you remind me of Sandra Bullock in this video.
I love these throwbacks! I used quite a few Jane eyeshadows -- remember Jane?! Their whole selling point was "nothing over $3!" I remember seeing those ads all over my Sassy magazines.
I loved this! I'm 63, I remember this and so much more. I laugh over the highlighter & contour craze. I used eyeshadow and dark plum-brown shades then. Of course until the 80s it was subtle but the 80s and 90s were wow!
An OG product that I've been using since highschool and still use to this day (I'm now 37) is Covergirl Clean Simply Powder Foundation in classic ivory. When I don't want to use foundation or if I reaaaallly want to mattify, it does the job! Just want to let you know Emily that I've been watching you for years! I've learned so much from you and there's no other RUclipsr out there that can make me buy a product more than you 🤣 Love you!
I’m a new viewer of your channel Emily & just wanted to share with you my thoughts. I truly enjoy your thoughts & opinions as well as your occasional off topic banter. Not only are you genuinely sweet & gorgeous but you’re just so highly educated in the world of makeup etc. It’s wonderful to find you as a resource & wanted to thank you for all you do! God bless! 💕
CG to tinted moisturizer is great! Age Rewind is great ! Mineral powder is great! I love it all! Takes me back! You look beautiful! Prayers for a wonderful pregnancy ❤️❤️
Used everything you mentioned! Every single one! You just needed the CG pressed powder with the Noxema scent and we would be good to go. Please do these more. Brings so many pleasant memories!
How do you manage to look great with whatever you put on?!? This is a great look actually. I have the Age Rewind brightener. Thanks for this fun video!
I’m here watching this video while doing makeup and I was so excited when you used the maybelline concealer in brightener! I was just using that product on my face when you mentioned it!! 🤗💖 I would love to pick up that true match blush in the shade sweet ginger!😍
I love how Emily is the only beauty youtuber that talks about really old products. I love older makeup that been out forever.
I love these types of videos because it reminds me of when I first started wearing makeup in high school! Then I discovered a little thing called RUclips and came across YOUR channel back in the elf brush days! Love you and thank you for the consistently great reviews. ❤️
Thank you both for influencing us..you are those girls 💜💯 #legendssupportinglegends
Wet n Wild lip liner in Brandywine. I've been using it for almost 40 years. Yes, it's really been around that long.
I started using that lipliner in high school (late 90s) and I still love it! Beautiful color and lasting power. For $0.99 you can't beat it!
YES!!!
That is my ALL-TIME FAVORITE beauty product!
Wow.. thanks for sharing this.
I recently started using it and I love it. Beautiful formula at a great price
I love that one. Did it used to just be a number? I want to say it was 666 which was how I remembered the color. It was the perfect 90s grunge lip color. I still use it and it's still perfect
You could make dirt look good on the eyes somehow with just your finger. You are very talented.
These are my favorite kinds of videos! Yes cue the nostalgia. I clicked on this SO fast😂
Same same SAME same same!!!!
Omg Seventeen Magazine was my bible in high school! Such a throwback to my childhood 😂throughly enjoyed this video
Ok so I was waiting for you to pull out a lighter to melt the CoverGirl eyeliner to get a deep black waterline.
Suz Rosk ahhhhahaha! Now THATS old skool! 😊
HAHAHAHA!!!!! So was I! Taking it WAY back!
Omg
Heh, I managed to burn myself on the waterline using that technique waaay back when I was in junior high (I’m 50). Was touching up after PE, so I had to finish the day with a slightly swollen and very sore eye. Still have the scar, and liner refuses to deposit on it, so I always have a bare spot lol. I’m extremely fortunate it wasn’t any worse. Moral of the story is don’t use this method, especially if you value your eyes💁🏻♀️👀🙆🏻♀️
Never had a lighter on me, but used Maybelline red colored pencil and ran it under hot water for my eyeliner!
As far as old eyeshadow, I immedietely thought of those enormous Coastal Scents pallets everyone had lol
The softer eye look is so flattering on you. Fun video! ❤️
I am still fascinated how emily films thsse videos so early in the morning!!!
Same I just commended her the other day about that
Me too! It’s inspiring.
Haven't watched in a while but I remember the early days of her channel when she was a news anchor and she did a vlog where she woke up VERYearly, during the nighttime, to be ready to go for the morning news. It's incredible.
I wish I was an early riser! I work for a tv network and know some breakfast show production staff wake up 3am for a 4:30 call time. I don't think I can do those hours!
Really appreciate Emily not half-assing her early morning shoots on top of being a busy mom. I love her inputs on various products and techniques - not the usual beauty youtuber spiel you hear from the wanna-be-famous lot (for a lack of better term)
You didnt get out your lighter!, that's why your eyeliner didnt work! Lol
Dana Lowe hahaha! The struggle was real back then! 😂
Dana Lowe what would we do now not many people smoke anymore lol I unfortunately did when I was 18 yuk
Dana Lowe 💀🤣 I used to watch my sisters having to do that in the 70's. LOL My how makeup has changed. It was so simple. hahaha!
Ha ha ha don't forget to let the eyeliner cool down before you apply again lol 🤣🙋
OmG!! sooooo true! lol ...and that stuff stayed on forever!
I looove love love these videos. I don't know what it is about old drugstore makeup that just brings back good memories 🤗
I still use that concealer! So good!
Same! Only one I use.
“There was that one girl” lol yes this is true! I’d creepily ask this girl at my middle school what are you wearing on the inner corner of your eyes? She was the first person I EVER saw wear brighter colors and glitter on the inner corners. I was so stoked when she commented on my MySpace page.🙈😂
Lauren Johnson too true !
Also, I've been curious about old school skincare classics - like ponds cold cream and noxzema creme in that blue tin
I still use ponds cold cream as the first step of my double cleanse! ☺
I use Ponds cold cream to take off makeup and it takes off everything.
I remember both of those. I was a preteen back in the 80s and the smell of Noxema is so nostalgic.
Mahrang D. I still use ponds to remove my makeup 👍🏻
I use the ponds moisturizing cream everyday twice a day I love it
NYX Jumbo Pencil in Milk! Long before actual shadow primer!
I still use the Maybelline Age Rewind in the brightening shade! I used to wear the True Match blush in Baby Blossom 😊
That color is the only blush I wear.
I started with Covergirl Clean foundation and powder as well as a blush and Maybelline for eyes. Love the old school products and like to see them used again.
You should do a beginners makeup starter pack! Affordable, straight forward, fool-proof!
BeautyByHalia I think she actually has, just can’t remember what it’s called. 😞
I think she had done this!
I just turned 47 today and I remember back in the day ,when I was a teenager, my Mom sold Avon and that's how we got 99% of our makeup. I loved looking over the Avon book for hours while picking out an order. Good times.. lol. 😀
Avon is still really good! I ordered a bunch of stuff before Xmas & love it all. Especially their lipsticks & the Prima perfume is amazing.
Maybelline added 6 new shades to the Age Rewind I now have my exact skin shade! My old shimmer strip is worn and dug on and I LOVE IT! 🥰
The PF shimmer strips bring back so many memories 😂😂😂 lol I need to do a full face of reallly really not new makeup 🤣
They make good eyeshadows too.
My 1st old school mascara was Maybelline Great Lash..ya know the pink tube. 😊
LovelyLee 70 Yes! I just bought that again to see how it compares to my other mascaras today.
That was the first mascara I used. With the pink tube and green lid
you should do a video in unison with a super old GRWM on your channel from back in the day! would be so funny to watch side by side
Corine I love that idea!
I still use ponds cold cream every day. It's been around for over 100 years. Definitely O.G.😁
@@janetyamashige9573 lol i still use the noxzema anti blemish pads every now and then.
I also totally remember ponds. I remember my mom had a jar of it in the bathroom for the longest time growing up and the smell just brings back soo many childhood memories.
I was hoping you'd use a white wedge sponge to blend lol. I used to wet mine just like the Beauty Blender.
Other than the shape they aren't that different than a Beauty Blender or other beauty sponge
Hearing you say “old ass” was surprisingly cute 😂❤️
Ashley Moen For a second I thought I imagined it 😂
I had to rewind and see if I heard what I thought I heard 😂
@@britnispears1986 me too!
Right?! I had to rewind lol
Loved that too!

Age rewind is great! I have turbocharged dark under eye circles, and the neutralizer and concealer in combination cover well, stay, and don’t crease.

I remember Cheryl Tiegs moxzema CoverGirl make up 1978 I was inspired by her look,
These are SO fun to watch! The Coty Airspun powder has made a recent come back & my Grandma used it back in the day! ❤️👍😁
That Loreal True Match blush is Sweet Ginger reminds me so much of the MAC blush, Gingerly!

The ONLY reason I still use it is because it has a very unique “smudger tip” that no other eyeliner has & it allows me to create the perfect cat eye with a pencil liner. It’s sooo fast and easy. I have to go over it with an eyeshadow using a flat liner brush or the liner will smudge but I also darken my beauty mark with it too. 😊👍💚
You are The very first youtuber that I start following, and still enjoy watching your videos... since around 2010
Carla B same!
It's so fun listening to you and Zabrena discuss your pregnancies 👶 while you apply your makeup. 💕
I saw the Maybelline powder in the thumbnail and screamed! my first ever powder!
I miss max factor’s pan stick foundation and 2000 cal. Lash mascara !
I was just thinking of them when I watched this! I used them as a teenager and they still sell them here in Finland 😅
Me too!!
Max factor stick foundation 😭😭😭 RIP
L’Oréal Voluminous mascara is still my fav since high school 😍
My sister is obsessed with that one as well! She even moved overseas where they dont sell it and she makes me mail it to her.
The older products still make a beautiful look!
the falsies is still my holy grail mascara! ive tried some of your drugstore faves over the years (supersizer, lash paradise), but falsies just works great on my lashes 😁
Revlon Cherries in the snow lipstick! My mom wore it, it was my signature red back in the day, and now my 33 year old daughter recently rocked it. I feel like the only mascaras I have ever used are Maybelline great lash in the pink and green tube for YEARS. At some point years ago I switched to L'Oréal Voluminous, and in spite of occasionally trying the latest hyped mascara, I keep going back to L'Oréal voluminous. I might look for the great lash... would be fun to try that again.
I used CG smoothers about 25 years ago too! CRAZY!
You know what I miss? Those L’Oreal Hip duos and pigments. Those were so good! 😆
Speaking of old school, I just bought rollerball lip gloss and I really enjoy it. Love the video, Em! ❤️❤️❤️
From what brand? I have been looking for a good rollerball lipgloss.
The regular maybelline the falsies was and still is one of my favorite mascaras ever, it’s amazing for longer, thicker lashes! Really makes a huge huge difference
YES!!! Had to get your makeup done quick and easy to report the news ❤️😍❤️
I loved the video. I graduated from high school in 1975 and am sixty-one. I wore Merle Norman pressed powder and a pale pink Max Factor lipstick selected by my aunt and my grandmother. A young lady didn't wear blush or eye makeup until you were older according to their experience. I loved them for caring enough to want the best for me.
Oh I loved that Maybelline powder. I had it a few years ago and used it all up. I used to love YM and Seventeen. And Sassy! Great video!
Love that you did this look! Good to see some old favorites are still good & available! I was a child of the 80s - big hair, bold colors, lol!
My day just got better because Emily posted a video....thanks Emily!! ❤️
Glad Cover Girl still makes the old school quads! Shimmering Sands was probably one of the first CG eyeshadows I ever used! In fact I bought it again recently and used it the other day! Also the Pure Romance quad...that was also one of my favorites back in the day. And they still make it! Thanks for a great video, Emily!❤️😁
OMGosh! I remember you reviewing the Maybelline mineral power! You had a haul video on it, and you did a review, and I think this was when you were filming in your living room in front of that couch!
Surviving Kristie - YES! Back in the apartment days!!!
Love how she can make it work and is having fun doing it
I definitely still use Mabelline Instant Age Rewind! My go to concealer.
So LOVE your channel! You always put out the most practical, fun & informative vids! They are always so useful & are way more REALITY based. Especially in comparison to a lot of the other beauty vids. You’re looks are always purposeful. Don’t get me wrong, I can appreciate a wild makeup look for its artistic expression. But, for me, I use makeup for practical reasons.
Concealer to diminish dark circles, bronzer to add warmth & definition to my face, blush to add “life” to my face, mascara to intensify the look of my lashes, mid/dark shadows in my crease to give my eyes better definition. So there’s a reason & rhyme for what I apply & where. It’s not just wearing hot pink & green shadow for “fashion” or because it’s pretty. But that’s just me.
Love you Emily !!
You are MUCH younger than me, lol. I remember my first makeup being Bonne Bell Lip slicker on a lanyard and Bonne Bell blush!!!!
Bonne Belle, wow, you just smacked me with the Way-Back Stick!!! 😂 😉 👍
My first makeup products included the Dr. Pepper Lip Smacker and the blush gel. I think my first blush gel was pink and my big sister's was peach. We used to swap colors. My first powder was their loose one, and my first "highlighter" was a cream called "White White". Cheers! ~Anastacia in Cleveland (the OG home of Bonne Belle)
@@janetyamashige9573 LOL! That is what I used to wash my face. I would rinse it off afterward because it left a slightly sticky residue on my face. It didn't do much for my acne even though that was supposed to be one of it's uses.
I remember getting ready to go out in 2006, taking FOREVER to do my eyeshadow, and my mum commenting I spent ages doing my makeup only to look like I wasn't wearing anything. Looking back, it's because I had no idea about eyeshadow primer, brushes, and pigmented shadows. I used to actually buy packets of sponge tips, layer and layer and layer my cheap shadow on (because I thought $20 was too expensive for a palette and cheaper ones would work the same, how wrong I was), and still end up with a barely there look. RUclips honestly taught me a LOT!
I would love to hear a rundown of drugstore bb/cc creams - if there are any you would recommend. I always planned on buying the Aveeno CC cream you recommended once upon a time but it looks like it’s discontinued 😢
Katie D i can’t find it on amazon anymore either 👎🏻😞
I love all your creative video ideas like this!! And I love old school stuff- it IS fun to see what’s still hanging around!!
Omg that eyeshadow quad lol brings me back to high school 🤣
Congratulations on the new baby coming soon. I'm 45 so my first makeup was max factor pancake foundation with cover girl clean pressed powder that I still use to this day. I then used max factor panstick until it was discontinued. I have dry skin now and switched around foundation for years until returning to cover girl clean foundation and it's so good and nostalgic with how it smells. I mix a little of their bb cream in with it for added spf. Thank you so much for this video. I've always bought drugstore makeup so I really appreciate your videos. Oh btw you are beautiful and you remind me of Sandra Bullock in this video.
Because of one of your videos, I can't go in to the drugstore and not look at the bottom row of products. Oldies but goodies.
I love these throwbacks! I used quite a few Jane eyeshadows -- remember Jane?! Their whole selling point was "nothing over $3!" I remember seeing those ads all over my Sassy magazines.
I loved their shadows! Rock Star was my go to neutral shadow.
@@effiebug4278 OMG me tooooo! I loved Rock Star!!
Age rewind is still my everyday concealer!! But you forgot to bust out the wedge sponge for your foundation😂
I loved this! I'm 63, I remember this and so much more. I laugh over the highlighter & contour craze. I used eyeshadow and dark plum-brown shades then. Of course until the 80s it was subtle but the 80s and 90s were wow!
That Maybelline concealer is an oldie but goodie that I definitely still use....I also use Coty Powder :-) Fun video and beautiful look. ♥ Elle
An OG product that I've been using since highschool and still use to this day (I'm now 37) is Covergirl Clean Simply Powder Foundation in classic ivory. When I don't want to use foundation or if I reaaaallly want to mattify, it does the job!
Just want to let you know Emily that I've been watching you for years! I've learned so much from you and there's no other RUclipsr out there that can make me buy a product more than you 🤣 Love you!
I was just thinking of this concept!! I've been loving loreal loose mineral foundation for summer and classic lipstick formulas
I’m a new viewer of your channel Emily & just wanted to share with you my thoughts. I truly enjoy your thoughts & opinions as well as your occasional off topic banter. Not only are you genuinely sweet & gorgeous but you’re just so highly educated in the world of makeup etc. It’s wonderful to find you as a resource & wanted to thank you for all you do! God bless! 💕
CG to tinted moisturizer is great! Age Rewind is great ! Mineral powder is great! I love it all! Takes me back! You look beautiful! Prayers for a wonderful pregnancy ❤️❤️
You are one of the first beauty gurus I watched and learned so much from. I’m so glad you are still making great videos. It’s like your an old friend
You do such fun and informative videos. I just love watching you. This brought back memories
Used everything you mentioned! Every single one! You just needed the CG pressed powder with the Noxema scent and we would be good to go. Please do these more. Brings so many pleasant memories!
I haven't thought of that powder in ages! Now I want one!
Maryanne Miles so glad you remember it, too!,
How do you manage to look great with whatever you put on?!? This is a great look actually. I have the Age Rewind brightener. Thanks for this fun video!
I’m here watching this video while doing makeup and I was so excited when you used the maybelline concealer in brightener! I was just using that product on my face when you mentioned it!! 🤗💖
I would love to pick up that true match blush in the shade sweet ginger!😍
