I think it's important to mention that Judy lives in a Latin American country. It's actually quite hard to find affordable decent makeup products and not only that but it's also hard to get foundation and concealer in very light skin tones and even harder for darker skin tones. Trust me, I live abroad and I know the struggle.
@@sararebelo_ It really is, I live in Peru and have traveled all around, while there are more options it's hard for me and some of my friends who are super pale to find foundation but concealer is on point now. It's not impossible, just hard.
@@sararebelo_ Kinda late to this, but clearly you haven't travelled much. I'm from eastern europe and here its very hard to find products for dark skin. We have all the normal brands but they just don't stock dark foundations/concealers because they can't sell them as easily as the lighter shades.
Personally, as a gay woman, I've been a chef for yearsssss and time and time again I've been passed over for positions because of my sexuality. I look pretty girly, but I never, ever deny who I am and when people are talking about their girlfriends, I talk about my wife lol So, that right there always puts me instantly into a box and invites all the usual stereotypical questions and comments. It's terrible working in a mainly heterosexual male industry! But that's what I'm passionate about! However, with this pandemic, restaurants were closed in the US for a little while in my area and I got a different job and I just cook at home now for my wife and our 2 kids. It is MUCH better, I must admit! And so are the benefits! 😆 lol Much love to you Luxeria! 💜
The restaurant industry is just a toxic industry in general very few people come out of it having good experiences. I don't think it has so much to do with your sexuality as it has to do with the fact that the back of the house is always pretty misogynistic as much as I hate to label anything it does have a 'bro' culture to it. Owners don't really care about employees customers don't care about employees and people run around for 12-hour shifts to make enough money to support their families while simultaneously being treated abominiously. God forbid you were ill God forbid you have a family member die God forbid you need to take a shift off.... I slipped on a slice of cucumber and broke my hip in three different places after 6 weeks of being out I started getting the question of when are you coming back to work like dude I'm still on crutches... So what I did come back to work I wasn't allowed to even sit down I had to walk down two flights of stairs and go sit in the bathroom if I needed a break and I was front of house manager at this establishment.... The industry is horrible and that is why it's suffering because people actually have options post covid I hope it forces employers both big and small to treat their employees with much more respect and dignity because Lord knows the customer base does not do that. I love it when people spend $100 and then tip $5 because someone forgot to bring an extra refill of lemonade on a busy Saturday night it's ridiculous.
As someone who's worked in the culinary industry, and has a sister who does so as well, if you're being passed over by the male chef's because you're unapologetically gay, it's because they want women to work for them that they have a chance of sleeping with. Male cishet chefs are notorious for wanting to sleep with any woman who works in the restaurant. They're more often than not skeezy as fuck. Which makes it not surprising that you get the gross comments. Keep being you though! Don't let those dickhead get you down.
@@meghanodonoghue9066 That's terrible that restaurant treated you so badly after you broke your hip! I'm sorry that happened to you. Nobody deserves that! And you're right, in thr restaurant industry they literally do NOT care if you have a health problem or need a day off for something with family, kids, doctor appt, etc. They just want you there when they say for how long they say. There was only ONE restaurant I worked at that was a decent place to work for and it's only because the head chef and all the managers were women! And they wouldn't deal with people's petty shit or any kind of discrimination or any BS period. That was the last kitchen I cooked in, other than my own obHealthcare. When the COVID-19 pandemic first started they closed down the restaurant and I got into another field to work in- home healthcare. Which I actually love, so it worked out well for me.
So bit of a nice story for you, my partner has no interest in beauty or reality tv etc but he’s seen bits of your videos here and there from me. We were talking yesterday about RUclips personas vs real life and he said see like Lux that you watch, I’d be happy to meet her in real life because even though her content isn’t my taste, she just seems like a genuine nice person who gives like critique but isn’t a dick about it. She seems genuinely lovely and I’d go for a pint with her 🤣 but he’s 100% correct! You are a beautiful soul and a gorgeous woman on the game! Loving this blue moment on the eyes x
@@alexshaw8167 didn’t want to seem like a stalker but I was really ill a few days ago and genuinely had a fever dream and I was on a school trip, sitting on the coach and my two best friends from school were sitting opposite and I was sat next to Lux! She went to school and we were friends 🤣🙈 I’m putting it down to watching Lux in bed 🤣
My BF loves Lux too! He says “IN THE BIN” and “GOUT” daily now 🤣 Edit: and just to calirify it isn’t in a making fun type of way *at all* he truly loves your vids and personality! You really are very likable! His favorite topic is shooter games so that helps put it in perspective 😂
Been a “linda” for years, and would rank this one pretty high for all the bad & unsanitary places she’s been to. She’s got some skills, just needs proper technique (and sanitary) training.
All I could think of was that one place where people were exchanging nudes while she was getting her makeup done, and where people talked badly about previous customers. This place here seemed literal lightyears above that, especially since some lindas suggested that the other place might have been a trafficking front.
@@Itri_Vega i’ve been going on a luxeria binge and i just watched that one right before this one and it was just so appallingly hateful i genuinely don’t know what to say
I think Joudi lives in Ecuador, and a common problem for her that i’ve seen in her videos is that she is pretty light-skinned/pink-toned and its rare that makeup artists have foundation in her shade bc her skintone isnt as common there
The sad part in actuality her complexion is common they just like to whitewash everyone. Just like Korea and Japan, China for ex. They want the girls and men to be pale pale pale snd sell makeup in such shades but yet naturally that's no what most of their complexion's are.
Doesn't she live in Argentina? Either way a GOOD makeup artist should have training in ALL skin types/textures etc - if you can't offer that then you need more training. Also I'm sure that their are people even darker/lighter than Joudi/Judy in either Ecuador or Argentina anyways...
@@Bella-qu5pf actually no. Her skin tone isn't common there. Seen white passing people being constantly used in media and advertising in those countries happens a lot but when it comes to buying makeup, very light and very dark shades are not common at all. I'm from Colombia and I know that pretty well. One of my aunts is extremely white, like literally snow white and getting her shade is difficult.
@@AuntieLux yeah a good MA *should* have all the training and necessary products but the MA did not have all the training and products nor could she access such things because of prejudice, transphobia, and lack of availability. Yes there are people lighter and darker than Judy *but* that doesn’t mean it’s common so the already struggling MA wouldn’t buy stuff she doesn’t need on a regular basis to not waste money she doesn’t have.
This video always broke my heart a because she really is clearly very talented and just simply doesnt have the correct training or tools. And I didn't even think about how you mentioned how much dangerous client-facing jobs could for trans-women, not to mention so many other spaces -_- Thank you for pointing that out though!
My niece and I have started watching your videos together; it started when she was looking for a tutorial and I found one of yours and you are, as you said, highly likable! We were watching one together over the long weekend (Labor Day in America) and my grandfather happened to be sitting near us. He’s 97, raised Roman Catholic, and retired military. He leaned over an said, in reference to you, “What a lovely young woman. Such beautiful blue eyes.” My cousin, who is the male version of a Karen (are we calling them Tuckers?) went on a rant about the LGBTQIA+ community. My grandfather starred him down for a long moment, pointing at my tablet screen, and said, “That Young LADY is funny, articulate, clearly educated, and has drive. She is deserving of respect. I may not understand but my understanding should not impact HER treatment.” Stunned silence. And then a cheer from my niece. Anecdotal evidence that there are allies - even unexpected ones. He’s right. You’re lovely. Be safe and happy!
I absolutely love the part where he said "She is deserving of respect. I may not understand, but my understanding should not impact HER treatment." Lovely way to phrase it for people who don't "understand" it. 💜💜💜
@@ashleycreason1986 Let's face it, if people could just go around with that attitude we'd have a lot less (discrimination) problems in the world in general. That's just the fundamental basis of tolerance that far too many don't grasp on to: you don't have to "understand", Karen. Not anyone's sexuality, gender identity, mental health state, religion, lifestyle - you just have to realize that whether you do or not doesn't give you the right to take away their human rights or treat them any worse than you'd treat anyone "like you". Technically, it could be that simple.
My thought process has always been, (since I've been old/mature enough to truly understand) "if it's not hurting anyone or anything, do whatever you want." There's so many people that get up in arms about other people's business that should really just be some personal shit no one else has any right to, and it's honestly disgusting. Like, check yourself and your life before you even think about going in on someone else's. The hatred is just baffling.
Despite all the excessive brushing and powdering, this makeup artist had an insanely steady hand with the eyeliner and lashes, and the lips looked quite nice, too. Maybe her makeup kit was limited because with prices like that and no other clients in sight, she couldn't get a wide range of products. Apart from the wrong shade of foundation, this was a pretty okay look. Talking about makeup, that bluecshade of eyeshadow on your lids is stunning. You hadn't listed the products you've used, so may I ask what it is? With my luck, it's something I need to sell a kidney for, but it is gorgeous! 💗
A lot of these hole in the wall places that Judy D has gone to claim to be using name brand products. But from what I've seen they are a lot of bootleg items. So she runs an even higher risk because they will throw all kinds of things in the makeup. They don't regulate it like the real cosmetic brands do. I saw a documentary years ago about bootleg makeup and how they can make it look exactly like the real brand. But when they did a study on what's in the products it had so many dangerous things in it. Even rat poop was found in some of them. So when Judy goes to these low rated places I'm sure that a lot of them have bought these fake products to use on clients.
Another lovely little fact is they found traces of extremely toxic substances such as arsenic in the fake beauty products, it comes from the rats, they injest the poison used to control them and it ends up excreted in their waste which ends up in bootleg product. They've found unsafe levels of LEAD in bootleg products, lead was used in the makeup queen Elizabeth I wore, it causes blemishes and sores to form. Interestingly, I watched a Soph does life video on here where she bought a fake version of her Soph x Revolution Spice palette, the fake actually cost more, it was £13.00 whereas the real deal was £10.00. I wouldn't want fake makeup used on me nor do I own any fakes, you can get really good quality makeup for not much nowadays. You literally have no idea what they put in that stuff, they don't care what happens as soon as they got your coin. I imagine it'd be impossible to get justice if something went wrong from using counterfeit stuff, the manufacturer would probably just change their name, deny responsibility and keep putting out dangerous products
A good brand will do their own quality testing to relatively safe standards, but here in the US (all I can speak to) cosmetics don't go through any safety bureau. It's just on the brand to provide quality.
She needs a break. The lady has natural talent for makeup.. if I had the opportunity, I'd offer to sponsor her if she wished to go to college and get MUA qualifications. She's being undersold where she is currently working... 🖤
I thank God that being transgender is beginning to become more acceptable these days. My best friend has been through his trans journey for almost 20 years and things have really changed for the better for the most part 💖💖
It’s so sad that people ruin someone online just for who they are or what they do. Where I live, gynaecologists who do abortions are suspiciously badly reviewed. I think pro lifers are making a concerted effort to destroy their livelihoods. All I am trying to say: sometimes online reviews can be helpful but sometimes people are just ignorant and will use this tool as a weapon. So maybe it’s also healthy to be a bit more critical when reading reviews
@@smarieisme8009 tell me you are American without telling me you are American. obviously you are the one who should have googled. This is the British spelling as far as I am aware.
@@smarieisme8009 should have googled it huh? It's the correct spelling in Australia. We love in a world that's more than one country. You can Google that too.
Someone cut my boyfriend and I off in traffic the other day and he just shouted *"GOUT!"* and I broke because I couldn't stop laughing for a good ten minutes.
I work in health care and every time I see a diagnosis of gout I think "IT'S GOUT GIRLS!" Thank goodness we are still wearing masks because it's hard not to laugh (and that would be very unprofessional.) ❤️ Your content!
@@IonIsFalling7217 I didn't intend to imply that gout has anything to do with hygiene. The mask was in reference to my mouth being covered by it. People can't see my entire expression, so if any smile creeps through it is hidden.
This reminds me of the time where I had recently watched Weird Al's "Living with a Hernia" and then my friend or her mom mentioned something about the dad getting an operation for a hernia. Fortunately I'm a decent actress and managed to stifle the laugh at the thought of the Weird Al video.
I’m so genuinely sorry that you and other trans women and men have to live in a world where you are afraid to walk out of your home and do your job. I’m sorry that we live in a world where you have to put a disclaimer on your life in order to try to feel safe. That’s appalling. I hope that one day soon we’ll all be able to feel safe and loved, no matter what space we’re in.
mummy's gonna MELT! also that's awkward when you tell someone that there's no customers in the salon... in front of the customer??? what did she think judy d was? WHOMST?
Why does it matter that the makeup artist is trans? Gender doesn't matter, you're there for makeup and gender doesn't affect someone's ability to do makeup.
It doesn't matter, but this is Latin America, people are very religious and a lot of the time also ignorant, it's hard to be lgbtq+ here, specially Trans.
I am currently studying to be a makeup artist and you are one of my greatest inspirations 🖤 Unfortunately my teacher and class are transfobic and I am trans myself (but we can't expect much since I am from brazil). Hope one day I can become at least 1% of the wonderful professional you are🖤🖤🖤
I'm from Brazil (also Latin America) and I agree that trans people are not valued and live in fear of violence. As a cis person I thought that the beauty industry would be more receptive of trans people since it's kind of well know that LGBT people work in this area, but I can imagine that dealing with clients may be a dangerous situation unfortunately.
Fellow Brazilian in here. Some places are more acceptable. I work at a mall, and my first job at the mall was extremely LGBT friendly. At that time I was still learning about me, I used a social male name, and my boss even changed my name in the system officially, together we launched a LGBTQP+ socks line (it was a kiosk that sells socks), we went to some fairs together and after I left there, she kept my line and always tell everyone about our story. There are some brands and stores that embrace the diversity, the mall is a nice place to find a LGBT friendly place to work. But sadly, in almost two years working in there, in different stores, I've never ever seen a trans/nb person getting any promotions or stuff. :/
I was wondering why "trans" was in the title or why it even mattered when her work seemed fine, better than I can do on myself anyway... Then you and judge mentioned that her being trans was why she was receiving all the low reviews. I just do not understand that kind of mentality. She is just a person no different from anyone else. It's ridiculous judgmental idiocy. I have never had to experience that type of prejudice, but I have been open and honest in job interviews about my chronic migraine condition because if it gets bad, I may need to wear prescription sunglasses indoors to mute the light. It was hard to get a call back BEFORE I started to mention the migraines, I haven't gotten a call back any time I have. Its funny when jobs aren't supposed to judge based on disability, gender, sexual orientation, etc, and yet...
This video has me feeling so many things... of course it's the transphobes that are leaving hateful reviews 🙄 While there were questionable techniques and sanitary issues, as you said, with proper training, she would be a fantastic MUA! $20 is *nothing* and for that price, I'd be happy to pay because she does miles better than I do! From what we see in Judy's video, I'd leave a 3/5 review because yeah, I don't think her skills are that bad! The lines she put down were nice!
I've heard MUA's talk about sanitizing powder products but I never get an answer when I ask how to do that. Thank you!!!! I dont use a ton of products so what I have goes bad before I use any noticeable amount but now that I know how to sanitize I may be ae to get more out of my powders!!
Luxeria sweetheart, would you mind sharing where we can find that amazing pigmented eyeshadow? I'm feeling catty and desperately in need of power shades to make life a little more exciting! Thank you for your content, you're such an uplifting and composed lady, much love for you 💕 [aw, and I've been learning so much about the science behind beauty since I joined your channel, it's been amazing!xx]
This one is the Carnival XL pro palette by bperfect cosmetics! I also love the beauty bay matte brights palette! I use my neons over an eyeshadow base, either the ABH eye base or the p.Louise one! Works a treat! 🖤🖤🖤
@@Luxeria I got some p.Louise products after you had mentioned them in a prior video nearly a year ago now, and THEY HAVE CHANGED MY LIFE GIRL! Thanks for the ace recommendation
Have to say, I super enjoy your older videos about chemistry and the science of makeup, but these reaction videos just let your amazing personality and brilliant wit shine so much more! You're the total package, Lux! 🔥
I absolutely agree with what you said, and honestly the LBTQ+ community contains some of the best artists and creatives going. It's very sad to see that some people are just not able to flourish because of discrimination.
I've been trough a lot last year, to say the least. I attempted suicide and fortunately survived, this gave the opportunity of enyoying the little things in life. One of those things is seeing you and your content. You make me so happy! I like everything about you! As a member of LGTBIQ+ community I understand your worries and support you. I love you sis! Kisses all the way from Buenos Aires, Argentina
"Melted mommy faces problematic magic of humanity" is the more appropriate title i feel! 😂 On a more serious note, this is quite sad and it happens a lot, a friend of mine, who is a trans man, got rejected even from McDonalds girls, their reasoning was that he might make customers uncomfortable! The nerve! 🦇
If he straight up got rejected because of that reasoning and that's what they said to him then he 100% has a lawsuit on his hands cuz that is fucking illegal on an epic level and I would sue the living shit out of them.
Like the fact that I'm even reading those words makes me so angry and I'm seriously shocked that they would even have the nerve to come out with that as a reasoning for rejecting them from employment for there because it's just so incredibly illegal to sit there and hold that against somebody for employment or for a place to live or anything.
@@Luxeria I’m not trans, but I’m autistic (and ADHD), and is our community the rate of unemployment and underemployment for people that WANT and CAN work well in particular fields is staggeringly high. I want to say its like over 60%. With my Resume, I can absolutely land interviews in my field. I can do pretty good for the interview, and I have a lot of experience in the roles i’m applying for.. but I just won’t pass. Even for those of us that mask quite well to blend in, we still face overwhelming rejection despite being qualified. Its a common feeling to think that you are raising some hackles or flags in the interviews that says “Im not one of you” and they go with that. But its really just because we are autistic and do not do well with spontaneous questions, especially with people we are not familiar. I can practice until I’m blue in the face and if they throw out a question I haven’t pre-scripted, my brain freezes and it takes me a bit to process the question while analyzing their body language, and trying to determine what an appropriate answer is. The only jobs i have ever gotten without someone in my small circle’s help is ones where they had you shadow and work a half day-it gives me a chance to get familiar with the person, and it allows me to open up, ask questions, and prove what i actually know without having the awful pressure of staring face to face while literally doing nothing else (not to mention eye contact tends to be very uncomfortable or distracting for us autistics.) Interviews in general are NOT autistic friendly. And its discrimination that you can’t even prove. I work with animals, my special interest and primary focus is animals.. I could talk abut them and their care all day (my husband can confirm it and various health problems and prevention of illnesses. That alone should be enough to WORK with animal. But no. I have to “prove” I can answer some random question that has nothing to do with the job to see if i will “fit in.” But I WILL fit in because we share a common interest.. I just don’t get the chance to prove it. Side note: i’m in the US. I don’t have an official diagnosis but I know what I am. Unfortunately that means I cant get official protection (not that it really helps) because I can’t afford the outrageous cost of the testing.. and there’s no way to guarantee i’ll get someone who will recognize a high-masking afab presentation there’s still a very strong male only sterotype, and many people if you werent diagnosed as a kid.. that you arent it, except when I was a kid, it was like 90% a male diagnosis because there was no studies with high masking or females.)
I really hope this reaches the makeup artist, because I hope she would see that the constructive critiques are given with compassion, & she could really learn a lot which could help her elevate her technique. I hope she can continue to improve & get to a place where she is really appreciated for her work.
I would love love love a series where you critique makeup looks we send in to you 🥺 like I think I‘m not too bad at it but your advice is so helpful and precise! You‘re not just like „ugh badly done“, you actually give tips to improve the application and I love that. A classy woman on the game 😌
This is the kind of thing that makes me wish there was a like... makeup supply donation program or something so that that artist could get some sponsored brushes and classes. Like I've watched a lot of worst reviewed videos and this makeup was quite good compared to some others. She just needs a little support!
The algorithm blessed me with you last month and I just squealed at getting the twitch shout out! I've been watching your videos for comfort and to be called 'lovely' when I don't feel it so this is amazing!! Thank you for all you do, you stunner! 💖
As a former cosmetology instructor, the only thing I could add to what you said is that eyebrow work should be done on clean skin. Not after applying product. The MUA's liner work was on point!!
I really love watching these videos because I learned so much about make up as an AFAB non-binary person trying to get into makeup as an art form and way to express my complex gender instead of feeling like I’m stuck in the wrong gender instead. Thank you Lux, any video I watch of yours makes my day a little better
i agree a 100 % that she has a gift/eye for makeup and she just needs a bit more training on the job and better products and brushes. my heart goes out to all people who struggle with gender identity and face negative consequences because of it :( they arent hurting anyone - it doesnt even make sense no matter how you think about it. sooo much hate and prejudice againts ltbtq people :((
I didn't follow most of that as I'm not into the make-up side much, but love to hear your voice. Makes me feel like the world's a better place for a few minutes. (Not in a creepy way).
Love the eyeliner advice! That will be handy for when I wear my sort of "anime fox cat overlord" look (basically a look centered around fairly heavy winged liner and red eyeshadow that is gradiented into gold or orange, both on the top and bottom eyelid, and coordinating shades of blush and lipstick)
You could check out Tabitha takes over! in some episodes the salons have a makeup artist and Tabitha always brings in a professional mua in that case as a client for them to do the service on (without them knowing theyre an mua) and she tells them after the look has been done and the mua is like nah this isn't it NOPE
Your point about the intimacy of this situation is spot on; I feel more uncomfortable having an eye exam, with the optometrist right up in my face, than I do a cervical smear test!
I know NOTHING about make-up (other than when Lux is talking) but the artist does have some skills, the products she's working with seem to be the major thing holding back
In the state I live in, here in the U.S., is it against the law for a licensed beautician, Barber, MUA, Esthetician, etc to use a razor on a clients skin. So when I started dermablading my own face I had to watch videos by licensed barbers to learn how, seeing as how my text books wouldn’t even cover it 🤦🏻♀️ While it might not be common practice here, I’d be interested to know if MUAs in other states do this.
Im non binary going into university for Science in 2 weeks (marine science specifically) and im genuinely terrified for how people are going to react/treat me, im also scared about my name, i dont know whether to say my birthname or chosen name. I currently tell people its a nickname because the thought of having to basically come out to everyone i meet terrifies me
Hi lovely, I hope you’re doing alright! I know it’s difficult in the beginning to see who accepts you and who not. I don’t know you personally, but please be yourself. Don’t be afraid. You are who you are and I rather have you feeling good about yourself than pleasing people cause of how they feel towards you! You’re a strong, wonderful human being and you can do this! Love you and proud of you for knowing who you are! Xx random person online
I have a doctorate in Ecology, so it's lovely to see someone just starting on their path in the biological sciences. There are definitely plenty of extremely talented LGBT+ folks in the field for support, both in the old guard and the younger folks. You aren't alone! I hope you have a wonderful college experience, future scientist. Best of luck!
I hope you go with your chosen name, because that is YOU. I know it’s easier said than done, but anyone that has a problem with you being you, isn’t worth the shit on your shoe! My daughter is gay and in her second year at college, she has gay ,bi, and non binary friends and they are all just accepted. Even my 67 year old mom has learnt the proper pronouns for her nb friends. Be you and be proud 😘
I think you should introduce yourself as your chosen name and be like “I also go by -nickname-“ Uni should also give you the oppertunity to use your chosen name on your coursework etc but you might find that “official” things will have your birth name on until it’s formally changed. If your in the UK you can change your name by deed poll and they’ll let you change it on everything official, banks, drivers license, uni etc. It cost me about £20 over ten years ago when I changed mine Good luck in your studies mate! Xxx
Hi! The "spongy things on sticks" are called applicators 🙂 I've used them since I was 14yo (1984). I started makeup as a theatrical makeup artist for a few years. Then I went to working for a modeling agency (did their photo shoots and runway shows). I worked as a brand consultant, then some freelance work. I loved the work, but I had vet school to attend so.... Anyway, this is my first time watching a video of yours.....I'll be watching more! Bye! 🙂🙃🙂
Excited for the "secret" new videos! I used to watch that show! Touching the applicator made me wince Revlon or maybaline have those applicators too!, I am going to use your sanitary application on my makeup! I break out in. And that palette is a amazkn one i think
I have that palette 🎨 it's Amorus USA "femme fatale" and it runs $15. Was one of my first pallettes before I got Boxycharm boxes and started getting better brands lolz. It's a good palette with warms and golds and very pretty usable colors. Love you videos Luxeria!!! ❤ 😍 💖 ❣ 💕 💘
When I was recommended the first video I saw of yours I was like oh is this another pretty girl just blabbing to the camera, but no - she’s educated and entertaining too! I subscribed and have been binging your videos since
i have the difficulty navigating the job industry even tho i have a degree being a transman, long term health conditions (transplant, immune suppressed, asthma) and have learning difficulties and mental health issues (depression, adhd, ocd)
You would be surprised lux I've known people tell me they were told in interviews or in the follow up that they were too qualified for the job applied for. Makes you laugh today's society. Some companies may still hold judgement on select groups and because they don't have to disclose it they get away with it. But your brilliant bubbly, knowledgeable and way smarter than me lmao 🤣 science aha I mixed some bi carb and lemon juice earlier and got excited cause it fizzed. I was trying to clean my sink for a bit of background on that. But honestly if they don't hire you it's them not you. It does make me mad when people can't except things 😒
Most jobs and companies hold judgments on most minority groups, anyone who has a disability that isn't immediately apparent will certainly attest to that. The only thing that's actually illegal is to tell someone you aren't hiring them for that reason, you can shred their resume or not call back after an interview or shift gears after they disclose that information, etc etc
One of the things I absolutely love about the bad makeup reaction/review videos you do is that when you see something that could be done better, you break it down and explain why and how to do it better. As someone who is currently trying to get better at makeup, I've learned a lot from these videos and appreciate them immensely!!
@@Luxeria 🖤🖤😂 sorry if I sound like I am high on GOUT 😭 I am only just over hyped every time I watch your amazing funny videos girl xxx So much love 🖤🖤
Lux, I think you do have to somewhat take into account the Judy is in Ecuador. Which somewhat explains the price point / products / training. I feel like it will be 100 x better in a few years.
When I was doing free-lance (North England + Scotland) I used to get asked if I had a brow razor with me, or if I also did brows (which I did but...) and often when I questioned why what they really wanted was shaping; which as you say, you can do with gel/powder and spoolies!
You're such a lovely person, and I'm so sorry you've felt unsafe. Everyone, nice or not, deserves to be treated with basic respect. You're fantastic and I hope that you've found a place where you're surrounded by support and love xxx
Gosh, you are my modern day Marilyn Monroe. Every time I see your face on my feed I say to myself or anyone in earshot "isn't she lovely??!" It was only Marilyn that got that treatment before I found your vids 😂 👸
"dont use your nails on your client unless youre in the adult industry and they ask for it" solid advice
😂😂😂😂🖤
I was reading the comments while watching the video and I've red your comment in the exact same moment she said it... 😂
I think it's important to mention that Judy lives in a Latin American country. It's actually quite hard to find affordable decent makeup products and not only that but it's also hard to get foundation and concealer in very light skin tones and even harder for darker skin tones. Trust me, I live abroad and I know the struggle.
Not quite true, not in 2023. Especially been a make up artist
@@sararebelo_ It really is, I live in Peru and have traveled all around, while there are more options it's hard for me and some of my friends who are super pale to find foundation but concealer is on point now. It's not impossible, just hard.
@@sararebelo_ Kinda late to this, but clearly you haven't travelled much. I'm from eastern europe and here its very hard to find products for dark skin. We have all the normal brands but they just don't stock dark foundations/concealers because they can't sell them as easily as the lighter shades.
Personally, as a gay woman, I've been a chef for yearsssss and time and time again I've been passed over for positions because of my sexuality. I look pretty girly, but I never, ever deny who I am and when people are talking about their girlfriends, I talk about my wife lol So, that right there always puts me instantly into a box and invites all the usual stereotypical questions and comments. It's terrible working in a mainly heterosexual male industry! But that's what I'm passionate about! However, with this pandemic, restaurants were closed in the US for a little while in my area and I got a different job and I just cook at home now for my wife and our 2 kids. It is MUCH better, I must admit! And so are the benefits! 😆 lol Much love to you Luxeria! 💜
You my dear have lots of friends here
@@ladymopar2024 thank you for that!
The restaurant industry is just a toxic industry in general very few people come out of it having good experiences. I don't think it has so much to do with your sexuality as it has to do with the fact that the back of the house is always pretty misogynistic as much as I hate to label anything it does have a 'bro' culture to it. Owners don't really care about employees customers don't care about employees and people run around for 12-hour shifts to make enough money to support their families while simultaneously being treated abominiously. God forbid you were ill God forbid you have a family member die God forbid you need to take a shift off.... I slipped on a slice of cucumber and broke my hip in three different places after 6 weeks of being out I started getting the question of when are you coming back to work like dude I'm still on crutches... So what I did come back to work I wasn't allowed to even sit down I had to walk down two flights of stairs and go sit in the bathroom if I needed a break and I was front of house manager at this establishment.... The industry is horrible and that is why it's suffering because people actually have options post covid I hope it forces employers both big and small to treat their employees with much more respect and dignity because Lord knows the customer base does not do that. I love it when people spend $100 and then tip $5 because someone forgot to bring an extra refill of lemonade on a busy Saturday night it's ridiculous.
As someone who's worked in the culinary industry, and has a sister who does so as well, if you're being passed over by the male chef's because you're unapologetically gay, it's because they want women to work for them that they have a chance of sleeping with.
Male cishet chefs are notorious for wanting to sleep with any woman who works in the restaurant. They're more often than not skeezy as fuck. Which makes it not surprising that you get the gross comments.
Keep being you though! Don't let those dickhead get you down.
@@meghanodonoghue9066 That's terrible that restaurant treated you so badly after you broke your hip! I'm sorry that happened to you. Nobody deserves that! And you're right, in thr restaurant industry they literally do NOT care if you have a health problem or need a day off for something with family, kids, doctor appt, etc. They just want you there when they say for how long they say. There was only ONE restaurant I worked at that was a decent place to work for and it's only because the head chef and all the managers were women! And they wouldn't deal with people's petty shit or any kind of discrimination or any BS period. That was the last kitchen I cooked in, other than my own obHealthcare. When the COVID-19 pandemic first started they closed down the restaurant and I got into another field to work in- home healthcare. Which I actually love, so it worked out well for me.
This lady is so brave going to these places! While everyone's running away from these places, she calmly walks in!
She really is!!
@@SA-ii9bv why not both?
And her skin never looks like it's suffering!
Yeah she literally chooses the worst to places to go out of free will for the shock factor. Love it haha but she knows what she’s doing
@@SA-ii9bv is that a bad thing
So bit of a nice story for you, my partner has no interest in beauty or reality tv etc but he’s seen bits of your videos here and there from me. We were talking yesterday about RUclips personas vs real life and he said see like Lux that you watch, I’d be happy to meet her in real life because even though her content isn’t my taste, she just seems like a genuine nice person who gives like critique but isn’t a dick about it. She seems genuinely lovely and I’d go for a pint with her 🤣 but he’s 100% correct! You are a beautiful soul and a gorgeous woman on the game! Loving this blue moment on the eyes x
This is lovely! Thanks for the sweet comment! Prepare for more drama next week though 👀 😂🖤
@@Luxeria I am sooooooo ready for it! I’m gagging already 🤣
After I started watching Luxeria I literally had a dream that I ran into her and she invited me to join her friends for lunch 😂
@@alexshaw8167 didn’t want to seem like a stalker but I was really ill a few days ago and genuinely had a fever dream and I was on a school trip, sitting on the coach and my two best friends from school were sitting opposite and I was sat next to Lux! She went to school and we were friends 🤣🙈 I’m putting it down to watching Lux in bed 🤣
My BF loves Lux too! He says “IN THE BIN” and “GOUT” daily now 🤣
Edit: and just to calirify it isn’t in a making fun type of way *at all* he truly loves your vids and personality! You really are very likable! His favorite topic is shooter games so that helps put it in perspective 😂
Been a “linda” for years, and would rank this one pretty high for all the bad & unsanitary places she’s been to. She’s got some skills, just needs proper technique (and sanitary) training.
All I could think of was that one place where people were exchanging nudes while she was getting her makeup done, and where people talked badly about previous customers. This place here seemed literal lightyears above that, especially since some lindas suggested that the other place might have been a trafficking front.
@@Itri_Vega i’ve been going on a luxeria binge and i just watched that one right before this one and it was just so appallingly hateful i genuinely don’t know what to say
I think Joudi lives in Ecuador, and a common problem for her that i’ve seen in her videos is that she is pretty light-skinned/pink-toned and its rare that makeup artists have foundation in her shade bc her skintone isnt as common there
even better that the makeupartist got pretty close considering that someone like her probably doesnt have the money to buy every shade in the world
The sad part in actuality her complexion is common they just like to whitewash everyone. Just like Korea and Japan, China for ex. They want the girls and men to be pale pale pale snd sell makeup in such shades but yet naturally that's no what most of their complexion's are.
Doesn't she live in Argentina? Either way a GOOD makeup artist should have training in ALL skin types/textures etc - if you can't offer that then you need more training. Also I'm sure that their are people even darker/lighter than Joudi/Judy in either Ecuador or Argentina anyways...
@@Bella-qu5pf actually no. Her skin tone isn't common there. Seen white passing people being constantly used in media and advertising in those countries happens a lot but when it comes to buying makeup, very light and very dark shades are not common at all. I'm from Colombia and I know that pretty well. One of my aunts is extremely white, like literally snow white and getting her shade is difficult.
@@AuntieLux yeah a good MA *should* have all the training and necessary products but the MA did not have all the training and products nor could she access such things because of prejudice, transphobia, and lack of availability. Yes there are people lighter and darker than Judy *but* that doesn’t mean it’s common so the already struggling MA wouldn’t buy stuff she doesn’t need on a regular basis to not waste money she doesn’t have.
This video always broke my heart a because she really is clearly very talented and just simply doesnt have the correct training or tools. And I didn't even think about how you mentioned how much dangerous client-facing jobs could for trans-women, not to mention so many other spaces -_- Thank you for pointing that out though!
My niece and I have started watching your videos together; it started when she was looking for a tutorial and I found one of yours and you are, as you said, highly likable! We were watching one together over the long weekend (Labor Day in America) and my grandfather happened to be sitting near us. He’s 97, raised Roman Catholic, and retired military. He leaned over an said, in reference to you, “What a lovely young woman. Such beautiful blue eyes.” My cousin, who is the male version of a Karen (are we calling them Tuckers?) went on a rant about the LGBTQIA+ community. My grandfather starred him down for a long moment, pointing at my tablet screen, and said, “That Young LADY is funny, articulate, clearly educated, and has drive. She is deserving of respect. I may not understand but my understanding should not impact HER treatment.” Stunned silence. And then a cheer from my niece. Anecdotal evidence that there are allies - even unexpected ones. He’s right. You’re lovely. Be safe and happy!
Love Grandpa!!!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏
I absolutely love the part where he said "She is deserving of respect. I may not understand, but my understanding should not impact HER treatment." Lovely way to phrase it for people who don't "understand" it. 💜💜💜
THAT IS BEAUTIFUL 🥰
@@ashleycreason1986 Let's face it, if people could just go around with that attitude we'd have a lot less (discrimination) problems in the world in general. That's just the fundamental basis of tolerance that far too many don't grasp on to: you don't have to "understand", Karen. Not anyone's sexuality, gender identity, mental health state, religion, lifestyle - you just have to realize that whether you do or not doesn't give you the right to take away their human rights or treat them any worse than you'd treat anyone "like you". Technically, it could be that simple.
My thought process has always been, (since I've been old/mature enough to truly understand) "if it's not hurting anyone or anything, do whatever you want." There's so many people that get up in arms about other people's business that should really just be some personal shit no one else has any right to, and it's honestly disgusting. Like, check yourself and your life before you even think about going in on someone else's. The hatred is just baffling.
Despite all the excessive brushing and powdering, this makeup artist had an insanely steady hand with the eyeliner and lashes, and the lips looked quite nice, too. Maybe her makeup kit was limited because with prices like that and no other clients in sight, she couldn't get a wide range of products. Apart from the wrong shade of foundation, this was a pretty okay look.
Talking about makeup, that bluecshade of eyeshadow on your lids is stunning. You hadn't listed the products you've used, so may I ask what it is? With my luck, it's something I need to sell a kidney for, but it is gorgeous! 💗
A lot of these hole in the wall places that Judy D has gone to claim to be using name brand products. But from what I've seen they are a lot of bootleg items. So she runs an even higher risk because they will throw all kinds of things in the makeup. They don't regulate it like the real cosmetic brands do. I saw a documentary years ago about bootleg makeup and how they can make it look exactly like the real brand. But when they did a study on what's in the products it had so many dangerous things in it. Even rat poop was found in some of them. So when Judy goes to these low rated places I'm sure that a lot of them have bought these fake products to use on clients.
I am absolutely hideously not surprised at eat poop 💀 but yes exactly! Just because the print is similar does not mean the goo is!
I’d rather have low price dollar store kids makeup put on me than bootleg makeup 😭
Another lovely little fact is they found traces of extremely toxic substances such as arsenic in the fake beauty products, it comes from the rats, they injest the poison used to control them and it ends up excreted in their waste which ends up in bootleg product. They've found unsafe levels of LEAD in bootleg products, lead was used in the makeup queen Elizabeth I wore, it causes blemishes and sores to form. Interestingly, I watched a Soph does life video on here where she bought a fake version of her Soph x Revolution Spice palette, the fake actually cost more, it was £13.00 whereas the real deal was £10.00. I wouldn't want fake makeup used on me nor do I own any fakes, you can get really good quality makeup for not much nowadays. You literally have no idea what they put in that stuff, they don't care what happens as soon as they got your coin. I imagine it'd be impossible to get justice if something went wrong from using counterfeit stuff, the manufacturer would probably just change their name, deny responsibility and keep putting out dangerous products
A good brand will do their own quality testing to relatively safe standards, but here in the US (all I can speak to) cosmetics don't go through any safety bureau. It's just on the brand to provide quality.
“Gerty Gouty Gathers Gout” Should be taught as a vocal warmup.😂

@@tiffprendergast Sounds like someone’s feeling a touch of gout today?
She needs a break. The lady has natural talent for makeup.. if I had the opportunity, I'd offer to sponsor her if she wished to go to college and get MUA qualifications. She's being undersold where she is currently working... 🖤
You are so sweet! Wish there was more of you
A go fund me for this artist would be amazing 😍🖤
She definitely has the talent but needs to work on sanitization !!
Absolutely agree with you. 🥰👌
I thank God that being transgender is beginning to become more acceptable these days. My best friend has been through his trans journey for almost 20 years and things have really changed for the better for the most part 💖💖
One of my best friends are doing through transition I tell you what we have so much fun she's like the best person ever
It’s so sad that people ruin someone online just for who they are or what they do. Where I live, gynaecologists who do abortions are suspiciously badly reviewed. I think pro lifers are making a concerted effort to destroy their livelihoods.
All I am trying to say: sometimes online reviews can be helpful but sometimes people are just ignorant and will use this tool as a weapon. So maybe it’s also healthy to be a bit more critical when reading reviews

And it’s true! So much gout! 😂🖤
Someone cut my boyfriend and I off in traffic the other day and he just shouted *"GOUT!"* and I broke because I couldn't stop laughing for a good ten minutes.
I said gout at someone and to get "in the bin" at handover at work the other day.. 😂 I was the only one that found it funny!
I find myself saying these things too funny I love it it's like a secret code
What does Gout mean
I work in health care and every time I see a diagnosis of gout I think "IT'S GOUT GIRLS!" Thank goodness we are still wearing masks because it's hard not to laugh (and that would be very unprofessional.) ❤️ Your content!
🤣
@@IonIsFalling7217 I didn't intend to imply that gout has anything to do with hygiene. The mask was in reference to my mouth being covered by it. People can't see my entire expression, so if any smile creeps through it is hidden.
This reminds me of the time where I had recently watched Weird Al's "Living with a Hernia" and then my friend or her mom mentioned something about the dad getting an operation for a hernia. Fortunately I'm a decent actress and managed to stifle the laugh at the thought of the Weird Al video.
"Never use your nails on a client unless you are in the adult industry and they ask for it." I mean, you're not wrong girl-
I’m so genuinely sorry that you and other trans women and men have to live in a world where you are afraid to walk out of your home and do your job. I’m sorry that we live in a world where you have to put a disclaimer on your life in order to try to feel safe. That’s appalling.
I hope that one day soon we’ll all be able to feel safe and loved, no matter what space we’re in.
mummy's gonna MELT! also that's awkward when you tell someone that there's no customers in the salon... in front of the customer??? what did she think judy d was? WHOMST?
Why does it matter that the makeup artist is trans? Gender doesn't matter, you're there for makeup and gender doesn't affect someone's ability to do makeup.
Exactly this!
Apparently where Judy lives they’re not very accepting of trans people sadly..
It doesn't matter, but this is Latin America, people are very religious and a lot of the time also ignorant, it's hard to be lgbtq+ here, specially Trans.
100%!
Hundred percent truth
I am currently studying to be a makeup artist and you are one of my greatest inspirations 🖤 Unfortunately my teacher and class are transfobic and I am trans myself (but we can't expect much since I am from brazil). Hope one day I can become at least 1% of the wonderful professional you are🖤🖤🖤
I'm from Brazil (also Latin America) and I agree that trans people are not valued and live in fear of violence. As a cis person I thought that the beauty industry would be more receptive of trans people since it's kind of well know that LGBT people work in this area, but I can imagine that dealing with clients may be a dangerous situation unfortunately.
Fellow Brazilian in here. Some places are more acceptable. I work at a mall, and my first job at the mall was extremely LGBT friendly. At that time I was still learning about me, I used a social male name, and my boss even changed my name in the system officially, together we launched a LGBTQP+ socks line (it was a kiosk that sells socks), we went to some fairs together and after I left there, she kept my line and always tell everyone about our story. There are some brands and stores that embrace the diversity, the mall is a nice place to find a LGBT friendly place to work. But sadly, in almost two years working in there, in different stores, I've never ever seen a trans/nb person getting any promotions or stuff. :/
I was wondering why "trans" was in the title or why it even mattered when her work seemed fine, better than I can do on myself anyway... Then you and judge mentioned that her being trans was why she was receiving all the low reviews. I just do not understand that kind of mentality. She is just a person no different from anyone else. It's ridiculous judgmental idiocy.
I have never had to experience that type of prejudice, but I have been open and honest in job interviews about my chronic migraine condition because if it gets bad, I may need to wear prescription sunglasses indoors to mute the light. It was hard to get a call back BEFORE I started to mention the migraines, I haven't gotten a call back any time I have. Its funny when jobs aren't supposed to judge based on disability, gender, sexual orientation, etc, and yet...
Luxeria’s makeup going wrong will low-key never happen 💜
😂😂😂😂 Thankyou for the confidence but it still goes wrong upon occasion! 🖤
This video has me feeling so many things... of course it's the transphobes that are leaving hateful reviews 🙄
While there were questionable techniques and sanitary issues, as you said, with proper training, she would be a fantastic MUA! $20 is *nothing* and for that price, I'd be happy to pay because she does miles better than I do! From what we see in Judy's video, I'd leave a 3/5 review because yeah, I don't think her skills are that bad! The lines she put down were nice!
I've heard MUA's talk about sanitizing powder products but I never get an answer when I ask how to do that. Thank you!!!! I dont use a ton of products so what I have goes bad before I use any noticeable amount but now that I know how to sanitize I may be ae to get more out of my powders!!
They are sanitized
@@tiffprendergast yeah, I get that but my question is how do they do it
I believe spraying rubbing alcohol on pressed powder products kills majority of germs, but I’m sure it’s not 100% effective.
@@embily8186 rubbing alcohol is never 100% effective in killing germs so you would be right about that

It really does! I noticed it right away as well. Just fabulous.
I absolutely agree with what you said, and honestly the LBTQ+ community contains some of the best artists and creatives going. It's very sad to see that some people are just not able to flourish because of discrimination.
I've been trough a lot last year, to say the least. I attempted suicide and fortunately survived, this gave the opportunity of enyoying the little things in life. One of those things is seeing you and your content. You make me so happy! I like everything about you! As a member of LGTBIQ+ community I understand your worries and support you. I love you sis! Kisses all the way from Buenos Aires, Argentina
"Melted mommy faces problematic magic of humanity" is the more appropriate title i feel! 😂
On a more serious note, this is quite sad and it happens a lot, a friend of mine, who is a trans man, got rejected even from McDonalds girls, their reasoning was that he might make customers uncomfortable! The nerve! 🦇
Absolutely abhorrent!!
If he straight up got rejected because of that reasoning and that's what they said to him then he 100% has a lawsuit on his hands cuz that is fucking illegal on an epic level and I would sue the living shit out of them.
Like the fact that I'm even reading those words makes me so angry and I'm seriously shocked that they would even have the nerve to come out with that as a reasoning for rejecting them from employment for there because it's just so incredibly illegal to sit there and hold that against somebody for employment or for a place to live or anything.
@@Luxeria I’m not trans, but I’m autistic (and ADHD), and is our community the rate of unemployment and underemployment for people that WANT and CAN work well in particular fields is staggeringly high. I want to say its like over 60%. With my Resume, I can absolutely land interviews in my field. I can do pretty good for the interview, and I have a lot of experience in the roles i’m applying for.. but I just won’t pass. Even for those of us that mask quite well to blend in, we still face overwhelming rejection despite being qualified. Its a common feeling to think that you are raising some hackles or flags in the interviews that says “Im not one of you” and they go with that. But its really just because we are autistic and do not do well with spontaneous questions, especially with people we are not familiar. I can practice until I’m blue in the face and if they throw out a question I haven’t pre-scripted, my brain freezes and it takes me a bit to process the question while analyzing their body language, and trying to determine what an appropriate answer is. The only jobs i have ever gotten without someone in my small circle’s help is ones where they had you shadow and work a half day-it gives me a chance to get familiar with the person, and it allows me to open up, ask questions, and prove what i actually know without having the awful pressure of staring face to face while literally doing nothing else (not to mention eye contact tends to be very uncomfortable or distracting for us autistics.)
Interviews in general are NOT autistic friendly. And its discrimination that you can’t even prove. I work with animals, my special interest and primary focus is animals.. I could talk abut them and their care all day (my husband can confirm it and various health problems and prevention of illnesses. That alone should be enough to WORK with animal. But no. I have to “prove” I can answer some random question that has nothing to do with the job to see if i will “fit in.” But I WILL fit in because we share a common interest.. I just don’t get the chance to prove it.
Side note: i’m in the US. I don’t have an official diagnosis but I know what I am. Unfortunately that means I cant get official protection (not that it really helps) because I can’t afford the outrageous cost of the testing.. and there’s no way to guarantee i’ll get someone who will recognize a high-masking afab presentation there’s still a very strong male only sterotype, and many people if you werent diagnosed as a kid.. that you arent it, except when I was a kid, it was like 90% a male diagnosis because there was no studies with high masking or females.)

Thank you Lux, any video I watch of yours makes my day a little better
i agree a 100 % that she has a gift/eye for makeup and she just needs a bit more training on the job and better products and brushes. my heart goes out to all people who struggle with gender identity and face negative consequences because of it :( they arent hurting anyone - it doesnt even make sense no matter how you think about it. sooo much hate and prejudice againts ltbtq people :((

Thanks lovely!
In the state I live in, here in the U.S., is it against the law for a licensed beautician, Barber, MUA, Esthetician, etc to use a razor on a clients skin. So when I started dermablading my own face I had to watch videos by licensed barbers to learn how, seeing as how my text books wouldn’t even cover it 🤦🏻♀️
While it might not be common practice here, I’d be interested to know if MUAs in other states do this.
Im non binary going into university for Science in 2 weeks (marine science specifically) and im genuinely terrified for how people are going to react/treat me, im also scared about my name, i dont know whether to say my birthname or chosen name.

Hi lovely, I hope you’re doing alright!
I know it’s difficult in the beginning to see who accepts you and who not. I don’t know you personally, but please be yourself. Don’t be afraid. You are who you are and I rather have you feeling good about yourself than pleasing people cause of how they feel towards you!
You’re a strong, wonderful human being and you can do this!
Love you and proud of you for knowing who you are!

I have a doctorate in Ecology, so it's lovely to see someone just starting on their path in the biological sciences. There are definitely plenty of extremely talented LGBT+ folks in the field for support, both in the old guard and the younger folks. You aren't alone! I hope you have a wonderful college experience, future scientist. Best of luck!
I hope you go with your chosen name, because that is YOU. I know it’s easier said than done, but anyone that has a problem with you being you, isn’t worth the shit on your shoe! My daughter is gay and in her second year at college, she has gay ,bi, and non binary friends and they are all just accepted. Even my 67 year old mom has learnt the proper pronouns for her nb friends. Be you and be proud 😘
I think you should introduce yourself as your chosen name and be like “I also go by -nickname-“
Uni should also give you the oppertunity to use your chosen name on your coursework etc but you might find that “official” things will have your birth name on until it’s formally changed.
If your in the UK you can change your name by deed poll and they’ll let you change it on everything official, banks, drivers license, uni etc. It cost me about £20 over ten years ago when I changed mine
Good luck in your studies mate! Xxx
I'm love your frosty 2000s makeup look giving me popular girl in school
😂😂😂😂 it is a little bit!
Love your reaction videos for Judy's horror stories :) also drowned and deceased in the blue of this makeup.
You know I would really love to watch your reaction to dragula because I absolutely adore that show and everybody is just so extra
Im sending you love and safety Lux, you're a human worthy of respect and are just lovely on top of it
Having a lovely rewatch and found the video where my patron status was announced. What a treat for a Friday night!
Hi! The "spongy things on sticks" are called applicators 🙂
I've used them since I was 14yo (1984). I started makeup as a theatrical makeup artist for a few years. Then I went to working for a modeling agency (did their photo shoots and runway shows). I worked as a brand consultant, then some freelance work. I loved the work, but I had vet school to attend so....
Anyway, this is my first time watching a video of yours.....I'll be watching more!
Bye! 🙂🙃🙂
Omg do more blue eyeshadow looks!!! Stunning 😍🥰🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍😍
Thankyou! Haven’t done one in ages but I do love it
What a great way to get ready for work! You should def make a discord server, I'd love that! Love you Lux
Thanks so much gorgeous! I have one for patreons 🖤🖤 have a good work day!
@@Luxeria OOP! Welp, I'm gonna have to to that when I get home!
I have to go back to college tomorrow, I really don't want to but watching your video make me feel a bit better, thank you and much love queen ❤️
Excited for the "secret" new videos! I used to watch that show!
Touching the applicator made me wince Revlon or maybaline have those applicators too!, I am going to use your sanitary application on my makeup! I break out in.
And that palette is a amazkn one i think
Early club! Hyped for the next stream and the next Gag of the Millennial (beige)
Thanks gorgeous! 🖤🖤🖤
I have that palette 🎨 it's Amorus USA "femme fatale" and it runs $15. Was one of my first pallettes before I got Boxycharm boxes and started getting better brands lolz. It's a good palette with warms and golds and very pretty usable colors. Love you videos Luxeria!!! ❤ 😍 💖 ❣ 💕 💘
When I was recommended the first video I saw of yours I was like oh is this another pretty girl just blabbing to the camera, but no - she’s educated and entertaining too! I subscribed and have been binging your videos since
i have the difficulty navigating the job industry even tho i have a degree being a transman, long term health conditions (transplant, immune suppressed, asthma) and have learning difficulties and mental health issues (depression, adhd, ocd)
You would be surprised lux I've known people tell me they were told in interviews or in the follow up that they were too qualified for the job applied for. Makes you laugh today's society. Some companies may still hold judgement on select groups and because they don't have to disclose it they get away with it. But your brilliant bubbly, knowledgeable and way smarter than me lmao 🤣 science aha I mixed some bi carb and lemon juice earlier and got excited cause it fizzed. I was trying to clean my sink for a bit of background on that. But honestly if they don't hire you it's them not you. It does make me mad when people can't except things 😒
Most jobs and companies hold judgments on most minority groups, anyone who has a disability that isn't immediately apparent will certainly attest to that. The only thing that's actually illegal is to tell someone you aren't hiring them for that reason, you can shred their resume or not call back after an interview or shift gears after they disclose that information, etc etc
I’d just like to say that the blue eyeshadow you used is absolutely STUNNING 😍 Your make up is always amazing girl. Purrr 💅🏽
19:12 "YOUR SKIN IS GONNA ROT, GIRLS!" omg I laughed for a solid minute.
OMG yasss LOVE JUDY D and her brother - theyre both so sweet and hardworking and nice!!!!
Judy D. !!!!! My favorite RUclips for music. So honestly *savage*
One of the things I absolutely love about the bad makeup reaction/review videos you do is that when you see something that could be done better, you break it down and explain why and how to do it better. As someone who is currently trying to get better at makeup, I've learned a lot from these videos and appreciate them immensely!!
Looking Flawless! 💜
If you are starting TLC's My Strange Addiction I will be ecstatic. The show is made entirely out of gout and glue babe.
GOUT GURL GOUT! 🥲 Hiiii Darling!!!!! 🖤🖤 luv you so much gurl xxxx
🖤🖤🖤😂
@@Luxeria 🖤🖤😂 sorry if I sound like I am high on GOUT 😭 I am only just over hyped every time I watch your amazing funny videos girl xxx So much love 🖤🖤
OK the eye shadow is gorgeous x😍
Thankyou!
@@Luxeria ur welcome queen x
Lux, I think you do have to somewhat take into account the Judy is in Ecuador. Which somewhat explains the price point / products / training. I feel like it will be 100 x better in a few years.
Blue eyeshadow makes your eyes pop, so glam! Love your videos by the way.
When I was doing free-lance (North England + Scotland) I used to get asked if I had a brow razor with me, or if I also did brows (which I did but...) and often when I questioned why what they really wanted was shaping; which as you say, you can do with gel/powder and spoolies!
You're such a lovely person, and I'm so sorry you've felt unsafe. Everyone, nice or not, deserves to be treated with basic respect. You're fantastic and I hope that you've found a place where you're surrounded by support and love xxx
Gosh, you are my modern day Marilyn Monroe. Every time I see your face on my feed I say to myself or anyone in earshot "isn't she lovely??!"
It was only Marilyn that got that treatment before I found your vids 😂 👸
Lux your eyes are POPPING!
I actually squealed when I saw your new vid pop up on my feed💓
I thought the purple was amazing but the blue has me hypnotized. Absolutely stunning!!
Oh my lord this look is ridiculously perfect, killing it as always girl 💙
Ooooo I am LOVING the look today ! Okay now onto the video! Haha 😆
Thanks gorgeous!
