5 minutes in and I feel like I’ve been scammed by other gurus. This is a real beauty influencer. Someone that will sit down and explain in depth their technique
This isn’t just great for beginners. This is great for those of us makeup enthusiasts who have gone way overboard throughout the years and need to dial it back but are so set in our habits, we don’t even know where to begin 😂
Yes, definitely, I've been a avid over board makeup wearer for the last 10 to 15 years, I've now paired down my makeup to just my favorites and starting from scratch because I'm not getting any younger and the less is definitely more on my 42 yr old skin
As a woman who has been a no makeup wearer my entire life , but really loves and admires women who do, and find it overwhelming to do my own makeup. I really really appreciate this video and all of your product suggestions.I am getting more mature and I think it's time to start adding a little of this to my morning routine.
This gave me super old school RUclips makeup tutorial vibes! Like explain it step by step, from the products, to the techniques to the reasoning. I LOVED this video! There aren’t many that can hold my attention for so long, but this was great!
@@bmorena I have watched. Not keen on the hot and flashy lady. Somehow she seems to forget she’s reviewing for US, not just herself and tends to be biased. Additionally, she’s not over 60. Over 60 skin is entirely different from everything that precedes it, sadly. And, for whatever reason, maybe the age thing, again, I’ve tried her recommendations and they are simply inaccurate, at least for my skin. For example, she tested the Tarte tinted moisturizer saying it didn’t settle into lines. I tried it. Not only does it settle into lines, it settles into lines big time. So, not keen on her or her reviews.
@Dawn Johnson there is this one make-up artist that does great makep on every kind of skin, and every age. I can't remember his channel name now, but I can look for it. He gives a lot of great advice too.
Omg Kera!! Thank you SO SO MUCH!! I’m beyond grateful for the support on my channel!! Thank you so much and huge apologies for not seeing this till now! ❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼
@@Makeupbynikkilarose I can confirm this!! You’ve always been so responsive on all platforms. I was actually in awe of having a conversation with you about concealers 😂 love you girl!
This is EVERYTHING. I thought "please, I always do a no makeup look, what more can I learn" I was so wrong!!! lol not only did you give good insight on products to choose, the TECHNIQUES!!!! This is about to step my face upppp
Would 100% love a part 2 guide on make up for special occasions like weddings for us non-make up wearers!! This is such a well thought out and informative video with us in mind! I’m so glad I stumbled upon this video, thank you 🙏
Out of ALL the makeup artists/gurus/influencers I've watched over the past 10+ years, in my opinion, you are the best - and I don't mean to downgrade any other artists who are also amazing in their OWN work, but I just relate to you more. I don't see a lot of combo/oily MUA's that do these kinds of in depth tips and tricks that WORK, not just for combo/oily, but for everyone watching. Your work does wonders, especially for us combo/oily gyals. So thank you for taking your time and sharing your art with us.
I love that you said "red and veiny eyelids because most of us do". I was always uncomfortable about how veiny my eyelids were unless I had makeup on. So thank you for making us feel normal (:
Im very thankful for this! I’ve been looking for a tutorial like this for ever! Im a 40year old and i’m just learning how to do my makeup!and most tutorials are so overwhelming and sooooo many steps this is sooo easy to understand with only a handful of products. Even if its just a no makeup makeup look im all for it! I can finally start taking care of me
I loved this SO much. As I get older (53) makeup looks like it’s too much on me. I purchased everything I could find to try this 🙏🏼 happy thoughts about the concealer and powder under my eyes 😬 but I’m going to try! Thank you so much and yes please a Part 2 would be awesome! 🥰
As someone who doesn’t wear makeup on a regular basis, this is the BEST/More comprehensive and easy to follow video I have watched. I am so taking notes of every tip you talked about! 💕
Thank you for this. I'm 46 and kind of gave up on wearing makeup when the pandemic hit and I started working from home. The thought of putting on a full face of makeup feels overwhelming to me now. I'd love to see a part two incorporating some foundation.
I love this video! Very clear and precise instructions. No loud music, crazy transitions or edits, cringey voices. As someone who’s here to learn, this really helped a lot.
@@Mel-zy1qu frrrr I usually feel overwhelmed when it comes to makeup bc there are so many options and products out there anymore. Also a lot of makeup RUclipsrs typically like more full coverage makeup and looks and although I enjoy watching their videos, that kind of makeup and techniques on myself is too much. Even if I do get a product that some of them recommend like a concealer, it typically looks cakey and “makeup-y” on my skin and it’s not the look I’m going for at all. I genuinely want a very natural “your skin but better” look. This video literally is exactly what I’ve been looking for, someone who understands us “no makeup” makeup users who don’t want to look caked up on a daily basis and recommends techniques, brushes, and products that compliment that kind of makeup look. I’m definitely gonna try some of the techniques she uses bc I feel like I’ve been struggling with looking cakey especially under the eyes. I’m also glad I’m not the only person who doesn’t want the most full coverage products on the planet and to wear fifty pounds of makeup. I feel like the emphasis (especially in the US) is the more makeup and coverage, the better. But it’s refreshing to see a makeup RUclipsr finally make a tutorial for a more realistic and simpler look that is less overwhelming and intimidating, but still very stunning.
This is such a simple, natural and flattering routine to follow for those who don't like wearing sooo much make-up. The Nars matte concealer is also a favorite of mine & following your technique has made my application so much smoother. Thank you so much for this video!!
I’ve been a huge make up lover for most of my life and I am 51 and just for fun I followed this tutorial step by step with you this morning and my makeup looked amazing!!!!! It came out soft natural and just perfect for this fall day!!!! As always thank you I learn something amazing with every video you post ❤
This is such an insightful video, thank you so much! I do just concealer and cream eyeshadow and struggle to learn as much when watching make up videos that do 10 steps. Thank you for explaining your reasoning behind every decision
Your tutorials are great. They are realistic to us non make up artists & not daunting. I struggle with a rosy/sensitive complexion, especially in Winter time. Putting just a little make up on gives me confidence & wakes me up :)
I think this has to be my favorite video of yours!!! I’m that person. I don’t wear makeup, but I can watch someone else apply it all day long. I’m intimidated by it. Well, till you, I try and I can’t get it right, but with this video I think I may be able to. So thank you!! ❤
It’s eerie that as the demo of this video not only did you just walk me through my own makeup routine, but with every single product I use verbatUM. Nailed it. I feel seen lmao
I got this channel almost 8-9 months ago through YT recommendation and that was the best thing I've ever get from this platform 😭 Every little thing you point out, describe, teach us so flawlessly that we're learning little by little every single time. It means more than a lot 🙌♥️ Thank you so much for being friendly with us, giving value to your people 💌✨
Coming back a week after watching this to say thank you. This video made me excited to give make up another try. After being part of the beauty guru era in the early 2010s I lost my passion for makeup once I started working full time. Putting on a full face so early in the morning just didn't fit my new routine, so it's been mainly just mascara and a bit of concealer. This routine is really accessible and elevates my look in a subtile way. Also: I looove the products you recommended, I ordered a bunch of them while watching and wasn't this excited for a parcel in months.
Thank you for this great video. I’m 70 YO and have always worn minimal makeup but I learned so much from this video especially treatment of the eyes. I appreciate all your recommendations and the time you spent on this video. ❤
This is a great make up routine for anyone that wants to look put together especially for work but doesn’t want to look like they’re wearing makeup, I love it ❤
👏 This might be my favourite makeup tutorial of all time lol. Exactly what I am after as someone who prefers minimal makeup, but have often fallen into the trap of unintentionally going overboard with products, or missing certain steps (like setting concealer). This demystified so much. Thank you!!
I’ve watched several of the top MUA videos for years and recently found your channel. I must say you are very talented and an excellent teacher. I’ve learned a lot of new techniques and products.
Dear Nikki, just tried this and it is a life saver!!! Perfect for when you need to be presentable but can't really bother, for when you have to be ready at 5.30 am, or for a zoom meeting without much warning. THANK YOU!
This is probably the most well done makeup tutorial I’ve ever seen. I feel like I’ve learned more from this from the countless other videos out there. Thank you!
Great video - I'm on the struggle bus with makeup these days. Started trying to really redo my whole process several months ago and now I have like a lot of products many of which really are not at my skill level. Gave me some really good ideas to simplify my routine especially on work days.
Nikki, have not watched the entire video yet, but did watch the portion on the eyes, since that is my obsession right now. I'm new to your channel, but I'm hooked and have just subscribed. FYI I'm 69 and abstained from eye makeup for 18 years, but took it up again. Love eyeliner, but agree it is a challenge. I love the idea of using eyeshadow to define the lashline as you did in this video but I'd probably go with a deeper shade. What you did was terrific, but please, please share which brush you used - this is what I'm so hung up about - brushes. Yes, I agree that angle brushes can be a problem and I've tried several. I'd rather do what you did, but I need to know which brush would be best. If it's the Zoeva 226 (I've seen you use it in 2 other videos), it seems impossible to get unless you buy an entire set. Anyway, I am thrilled to have found your channel as I think you do a fantastic job of explaining, your aesthetic is beautiful, and there's something about your way of speaking that comes across as very sincere.
Omg-Nikki, these are some of the best products I’ve tried in a long time. I typically don’t like brow gels of any kind, since my brows are so stubborn, straight and spikey. Kept an open mind and attempted it again today w NYX’ brow pen. LIFE CHANGING. TYSM for not gatekeeping your faves!
This is the single most useful and easy to follow guide I've ever come across. I tried it this morning and my little smidges of makeup are still in place and looking good 6 hours later. Thank you!
i have been waiting for a video like this, thank you! personally, i could take this to night, but i would be curious to see your take on a video like this for a "night time" look.
One of the best tutorials I've seen! Thanks. At 73 and a total makeup lover my whole life this was really helpful. I've had to really change my application over the years because my skin has changed. It has been trial & error since covid since I only wore mascara for almost 2 yrs. I mostly switched to creams but my under eye has been my biggest challenge to apply & look natural. Again, thanks so much! And happy New year!
Yes would love a part 2. As much as I love makeup, I'm just so busy, mom, work, life etc that most of the time I just don't have the time so more tips to look like I spent time on my face but actually didn't would be great! I also use the stick blush on cheeks, lips and eyes!
Nikki’s content and they way she makes her content is so much better then everyone else. She isn’t selfish with her time and really want to give us quality content, I’ve really noticed that about her. Appreciated ❤
So much great info in this video. I love watching you work. I have general redness and pigmentation and need coverage all over, would love to see a video on how you would approach doing natural makeup on someone with skin like mine 😊
This makeup tutorial is truly life changing. I’ve never been comfortable wearing makeup and as someone who is almost 30, it felt pretty embarrassing to ask people around me for tips and tricks when it feels like they are all advanced and also they wear makeup everyday. I’ve been watching RUclips videos for YEARS but none of them have ever explained the way you did. I followed the end tutorial and it was my first time getting an ACTUAL natural look and I felt so good and happy at the end of it, I almost teared up. The products you asked to skip and reapply are so accessible and because of this tutorial I can see myself having the confidence to explore makeup more. Thank you so much. You got yourself a new subscriber and fan.
I LOVE this video! While I have fun with makeup and am pretty comfortable with most products, I never felt like I could create a good “no makeup” look. I start work at 4am from home, so I run a lot of errands in the afternoons. I really don’t want to do a full normal makeup, but want something to help me look more refreshed. You’re so great at explaining the why parts, as far as what this brush will do, what these consistencies provide, etc. Thank you so much for doing this. Love all your videos. I’m 50 (😳) and I feel like all your videos apply to a wide range of viewers. I really appreciate that.
As someone who doesn't leave the house often especially for shopping, I wish someone could put together "My Makeup Kit" for all occasions. It's so difficult to source everything from different sites, waiting on inventory to be back in stock and then not even knowing if I picked the right shade of any of them. I realize this is not a reality and I Very Much Appreciate that you have done this video. At least now I have a place to start. It just might take me months to get all of the products I want and need in the hands. This is why I continue to use the wrong products and am not getting the outcome I want. No more than I wear makeup it feels too overwhelming to source it all and I give up, again and again. Any suggestions? Should I go have sephora do my makeup and get products, or somewhere else, I want to look my best more often lately after coming out of 10+ years of basically being in bed but it feels like too much, not the application, you nailed that! But having the correct products. Any ideas would be Greatly Appreciated❣️💙 Thank you for the time and effort you put into helping so many people!
This is exactly how I feel! So overwhelmed by selecting, and even starting to get the products and don’t trust the people that work there lol. I wish there was some sort of ready to go kit for me. But I know I have to go get a shade and so on and so forth. It’s a lot. And even if you can return the items. Takes so much time and money. I need my own make up artist to take me shopping and them pick for me and I pay. lol but of course I can’t afford that
This is great Nikki, thank you! I'm the type of person who doesn't like to over dress or over make up myself from who I'm hanging out with, but I do love to wear makeup and definitely need some filling in and accentuating. Always looking for a natural look while using a broad range of cosmetics.
Thank you for this video!! I used to wear makeup back in 2017 but quickly got tired of the heavy makeup look that was so trendy at the time. Now, after prioritizing skincare and trying to get back into makeup this video has been so helpful. This video is so appreciated and you are such a professional! Again, thank you so much!! ❤
I have literally been craving this video! I haaaate the feeling of makeup on my skin, especially as the day progresses. I always intend to use less makeup because I know it looks prettier on me personally, but it’s so easy to go dull face when you just keep adding on the products. Thank you!
I gotta say thank you for this vid!!! I have been using your concealer trick all week and it been wonderful! It's hard to do your beat b4 the sun rises!!
Yes please, part 2 Very helpful video, I prefer the no-makeup look and learned a lot. Glad I discovered your channel. You are a natural educator, very well done!
This tutorial is by far my favorite makeup tutorial. Even though it’s lengthily it’s worth watching for all the tips. Thank you for putting this out there for us to see!!
Ten years ago I knew how to do my makeup. Now, 4 kids later, I have no idea where to even start. Thanks for this easy to follow example! Would love a part 2!
I love this even for non beginners. I love wearing makeup but where I live can get extremely hot and humid in the summer and I still want to wear makeup and look natural without feeling like everything is melting off. Very helpful
Girl, this video is a blessing! I've been a no-makeup wearer since a little before the pandemic simply because I could not get the natural look right. My skin is oily, I live in a hot climate, and everything melts off. Your tutorial not only showed me that I have been using the wrong products and techniques, but it also gave me hope to be able to wear makeup again. THANK YOU!
You’re 100% speaking my language as a non makeup wearer, thank you so much for this tutorial! I’ve never worn full face makeup because I honestly feel like it’s an art form and it’s super overwhelming to figure out where to start/just how to do something basic for casual everyday wear if I just want to look like myself but a little brighter and enhanced. Your tutorial makes it feel a lot more approachable and way less overwhelming 🙌🏾
AMAZING! I love this video. I am a single mom who doesn't wear makeup often and when I do it ALWAYS looks like a cakey mess or I feel like I didn't put any on or I get half done because I didn't leave enough time to get ready or am just too slow because Influencers and makeup artists make it look so easy. Thank for this. I would love to see more like this... especially for big pores, combo skin also for a non-maker wearer. thank you so much for this video and I hope to see more.
My mom always wore very little to no makeup so I grew up with that example but over the years when I tried to do makeup "makeup" on myself, I quickly found out Im no good at it. I built my "own" way of doing makeup through trial and error and I feel so validated right now because this is exactly what I do on myself and a makeup PRO is actually recommending it. When you pointed out the concealer step with the finger instead of the brush that is also what I switched to because I have drier skin, every single step really, was exactly it. I also have a Dior lip balm that's my go-to but about to check out these recs 😭❤
I LOVE this video! (So yes please to Part 2 🤭) I’ve been into makeup for 25 years, however I personally rock a more natural/minimal look. Thank you very much for making this video girl! 🤗🤗🤍🙏
I am always mesmerized by your brush holding technique! My daughter used to get scolded at school for holding her pencil wrong, but is quite the artist so it must be the artists in you!
Hi I just want to thank you.. I’ve been binging your videos for days and the tips and instructions you’ve given are priceless… i was hating my makeup and feeling very low.. started using your tips and recommended products and it’s amazing the difference. I’m loving my skin, makeup and setting myself in a better light. Thank you so much for what you do!!
LOVED this! How you explained all the details and the why's of what you are doing. Lots of options and levels to step up if needed. Really great, thank you!
LOVED this video!!! I am a beginner and don't love wearing lots of makeup but still want a balanced look like you showed here. Will be studying this video before my next event 😊
Nikki This technique is also for our weekend wear and or vacation. I love the look and the technique. I often use glow screen on weekends and vacation love the suggestion of the use of bronzer. I am here for it!!! Your techniques and tips are always on point THANK YOU
Loved this video!! I have little experience with makeup but when I do it I prefer the low maintenance/"no makeup" makeup looks. I usually do mascara, bronzer they way you did in this video, and maybe some highlighter. But this is a great video and amazing natural results! Thanks for the tips and tricks; this looks so easy for me who's not confident with makeup or my skill level. The results were subtly beautiful and polished. You proved it's attainable for me!!
Thank you so much! I’m older and a total makeup beginner. I’ve never enjoyed makeup cause I found it daunting and didn’t want to always look “made up,” I just want to look like me but a bit better. You totally get it with this tutorial. You’re a great teacher, love how you explain each step slowly and give me options. LOVED how you said, look avoid eyeliner if it’s too intimidating, no lashes needed. You’re not here to impress anyone with a wing lol.
When I put powder under my 52yo eyes all of the thin skin suddenly appears. I have dry skin as well so how can I avoid this? Thank you so very much for this video ❣️❣️ I have needed this very much. I've been home with bad health and am now wanting to wear makeup again. TFS 💙
There are some videos by Wayne goss that talk about more mature or drier skin. He usually advises to use a moisturiser for the undereye and as little product as possible, if I remember correctly.
I really appreciate this video as most of the makeup artists don’t show it in details and uses a lot of products.But I actually know all of these tricks because i am a minimal or no makeup “makeup “ lover girl,so some of them i found on no makeup “makeup” tutorials i have searched and watched to learn for 4 years and some I discovered by my own.❤ But techniques shown on this video might work on flawless skin but those who suffers from acne,acne scars,hyperpigmentation and deeper skin tone won’t work out.❤ What’s most important is to do skin care regularly and elaborated skin prep before any makeup,like after washing using toner,serum,moisturiser,tinted sunscreen and pore-filing primers. What i do is use bb cream to give some coverage but i apply it with hand as it absorbs fully,then i use a concealer of my skin tone to cover blemishes and blend it out with my finger tips then use compact powder to set my full face as i have oily skin.❤ I also love cream eyeshadow,cream blush,cream highlighter, cream contour,lip and cheek tints to add some color and definition.I also love clear brow gel or tinted brow gel.and i love reapplying hydrating pigmented lip balm ..❤ Then again makeup is different for every people because of different skin type,color,face shape and prominent visuals ,different weather,season,different age,style,different occasions or purpose and also different personality,preferences and time or tastes.❤ Some are very effective to save time,specially techniques using hand and only 2/3 brushes and color pallet that almost matches but compliments your skin tone;for eyes i just do a very small wing after using a subtle eyeshadow in the crease and outer corner of my eyes which is very easy to do and i do it as i wear glasses,also curl lashes and as i have sensitive dry eyes i put mascara light handed and double coat only outer side.i normally don’t use product on lash lines.for a subtle glow i put a cream highlighter in the inner corner of the eyes and nose tip.also contour my nose and chin-line,jawline and chin a bit using brozer as i have double chin and bigger face.❤ And always remember to blend properly and for makeup less is always more ❤.
Ohh Nikki thank you soooo much for this video. I love makeup, but lately when my skin looks nice I don't wear foundation for my everyday look, and I struggled, as the same products that would work well with foundation on( concealer, blush,bronzer etc), it would look weird or patchy when I don't wear any. I've learnt so many amazing tips and tricks from this video. Thanks ❤️
I love your approach to makeup application and the way you describe the techniques and types of products to use. It’s very helpful and enjoyable to watch!
Thank you so much for making this video. As someone who admires others who can put so much time and effort into their makeup I just want something that enhances my features and is simple. I hope you continue to make more of these videos to help out some of us who want simple looks or are too overwhelm with the amount of techniques and products out there.
I’ve been wanting to streamline my makeup routine since I FINALLY have my skin looking good, and I’m nearing my later 50’s. A lot of makeup just makes me look OLDER at this point. Glad I found your tutorials.
I learned so much from this esp about bronzer and the eyes. Thanks so much❤ the little tweaks I took from this made a difference. Way more modern and seamless.
I mean this with the upmost respect. This is like the Bob Ross of makeup tutorials. This was so well done and so encouraging.
Bob Ross rocks
OMG that is so accurate. It's so reassuring and encouraging.
The most incredible compliment I think I’ve ever gotten !!🥹🫶🏼🫶🏼 thank you!!
I totally agree with you
i was thinking the same! LOL
5 minutes in and I feel like I’ve been scammed by other gurus. This is a real beauty influencer. Someone that will sit down and explain in depth their technique
This isn’t just great for beginners. This is great for those of us makeup enthusiasts who have gone way overboard throughout the years and need to dial it back but are so set in our habits, we don’t even know where to begin 😂
Yes, definitely, I've been a avid over board makeup wearer for the last 10 to 15 years, I've now paired down my makeup to just my favorites and starting from scratch because I'm not getting any younger and the less is definitely more on my 42 yr old skin
I feel this in my soul, so hard. 36 year old me cannot wear the same amount of makeup 25 year old me could wear.
Totally agree!!!!!!!!
Hahahaha truee I want to go back to natural because I’m tired of full glam
ahhh so true I agree with this!!
As a woman who has been a no makeup wearer my entire life , but really loves and admires women who do, and find it overwhelming to do my own makeup. I really really appreciate this video and all of your product suggestions.I am getting more mature and I think it's time to start adding a little of this to my morning routine.

Would love to see a video for older women who have wrinkles and textured skin!
Yes!
Totally agree. Once I hit my 60s nothing worked. I’ve been working hard on finding stuff that makes me look better instead of worse.
@@dawnjohnson8739 Lady's, you should watch @HotandFlashy & @GracefulBeauty channels!!! 😘
@@bmorena I have watched. Not keen on the hot and flashy lady. Somehow she seems to forget she’s reviewing for US, not just herself and tends to be biased. Additionally, she’s not over 60. Over 60 skin is entirely different from everything that precedes it, sadly. And, for whatever reason, maybe the age thing, again, I’ve tried her recommendations and they are simply inaccurate, at least for my skin. For example, she tested the Tarte tinted moisturizer saying it didn’t settle into lines. I tried it. Not only does it settle into lines, it settles into lines big time. So, not keen on her or her reviews.
@Dawn Johnson there is this one make-up artist that does great makep on every kind of skin, and every age. I can't remember his channel name now, but I can look for it. He gives a lot of great advice too.
THANK YOU for showing that makeup can be for Anyone at Any level and for being so open and approachable❣️🤗
What a shame that she doesn’t make it a point to come back and thank you for sending her money. That is wrong.
Omg Kera!! Thank you SO SO MUCH!! I’m beyond grateful for the support on my channel!! Thank you so much and huge apologies for not seeing this till now!

This is EVERYTHING. I thought "please, I always do a no makeup look, what more can I learn" I was so wrong!!! lol not only did you give good insight on products to choose, the TECHNIQUES!!!! This is about to step my face upppp
Would 100% love a part 2 guide on make up for special occasions like weddings for us non-make up wearers!! This is such a well thought out and informative video with us in mind! I’m so glad I stumbled upon this video, thank you 🙏
YES PLEASE! Would love that
For sure. I was thinking the exact same thing.
Haha… this IS my special occasion guide! WY too much for every day!
Omg yes! That would be so helpful too! Please 🙏🏼 thank you!

So flattering & pretty! I’d love to see a Part 2! I love it when artists show their everyday no fail techniques & products!!! ❤
You do such a great job of explaining and demonstrating. The bronzer tip is really good. Thanks so much for taking the time out of your busy schedule!
Im very thankful for this!
I’ve been looking for a tutorial like this for ever!
Im a 40year old and i’m just learning how to do my makeup!and most tutorials are so overwhelming and sooooo many steps this is sooo easy to understand with only a handful of products.
Even if its just a no makeup makeup look im all for it! I can finally start taking care of me
Glad I could help! This makes me so happy!
I loved this SO much. As I get older (53) makeup looks like it’s too much on me. I purchased everything I could find to try this 🙏🏼 happy thoughts about the concealer and powder under my eyes 😬 but I’m going to try! Thank you so much and yes please a Part 2 would be awesome! 🥰
Omg thank you so so much Holly!
How did it turn out?
As someone who doesn’t wear makeup on a regular basis, this is the BEST/More comprehensive and easy to follow video I have watched.
I am so taking notes of every tip you talked about! 💕
Thank you for this. I'm 46 and kind of gave up on wearing makeup when the pandemic hit and I started working from home. The thought of putting on a full face of makeup feels overwhelming to me now. I'd love to see a part two incorporating some foundation.
I love this simple, patient, and very non-judgmental video for us non-makeup girlies! Thanks, Nikki!
I love this video! Very clear and precise instructions. No loud music, crazy transitions or edits, cringey voices. As someone who’s here to learn, this really helped a lot.
Us non makeup wearers are so grateful for you!! Thank you for making it accessible and easy to understand.
@@Mel-zy1qu frrrr I usually feel overwhelmed when it comes to makeup bc there are so many options and products out there anymore. Also a lot of makeup RUclipsrs typically like more full coverage makeup and looks and although I enjoy watching their videos, that kind of makeup and techniques on myself is too much. Even if I do get a product that some of them recommend like a concealer, it typically looks cakey and “makeup-y” on my skin and it’s not the look I’m going for at all. I genuinely want a very natural “your skin but better” look. This video literally is exactly what I’ve been looking for, someone who understands us “no makeup” makeup users who don’t want to look caked up on a daily basis and recommends techniques, brushes, and products that compliment that kind of makeup look. I’m definitely gonna try some of the techniques she uses bc I feel like I’ve been struggling with looking cakey especially under the eyes. I’m also glad I’m not the only person who doesn’t want the most full coverage products on the planet and to wear fifty pounds of makeup. I feel like the emphasis (especially in the US) is the more makeup and coverage, the better. But it’s refreshing to see a makeup RUclipsr finally make a tutorial for a more realistic and simpler look that is less overwhelming and intimidating, but still very stunning.
This is such a simple, natural and flattering routine to follow for those who don't like wearing sooo much make-up. The Nars matte concealer is also a favorite of mine & following your technique has made my application so much smoother. Thank you so much for this video!!
I’ve been a huge make up lover for most of my life and I am 51 and just for fun I followed this tutorial step by step with you this morning and my makeup looked amazing!!!!! It came out soft natural and just perfect for this fall day!!!! As always thank you I learn something amazing with every video you post ❤
This is such an insightful video, thank you so much! I do just concealer and cream eyeshadow and struggle to learn as much when watching make up videos that do 10 steps. Thank you for explaining your reasoning behind every decision
I would love to hear your guidance on how to pick bronzers for different undertones and skin tones!
Your tutorials are great. They are realistic to us non make up artists & not daunting. I struggle with a rosy/sensitive complexion, especially in Winter time. Putting just a little make up on gives me confidence & wakes me up :)
I’m not a beginner but I do appreciate a more natural and less fussy look. This was so insightful. Thanks Nikki!
Such a great in-depth video, you're a great teacher Nikki!
I think this has to be my favorite video of yours!!! I’m that person. I don’t wear makeup, but I can watch someone else apply it all day long. I’m intimidated by it. Well, till you, I try and I can’t get it right, but with this video I think I may be able to. So thank you!! ❤
It’s eerie that as the demo of this video not only did you just walk me through my own makeup routine, but with every single product I use verbatUM. Nailed it. I feel seen lmao
years of watching makeup content i never seen this happen before whoa
I got this channel almost 8-9 months ago through YT recommendation and that was the best thing I've ever get from this platform 😭
Every little thing you point out, describe, teach us so flawlessly that we're learning little by little every single time. It means more than a lot 🙌♥️ Thank you so much for being friendly with us, giving value to your people 💌✨
Coming back a week after watching this to say thank you. This video made me excited to give make up another try. After being part of the beauty guru era in the early 2010s I lost my passion for makeup once I started working full time. Putting on a full face so early in the morning just didn't fit my new routine, so it's been mainly just mascara and a bit of concealer.
This routine is really accessible and elevates my look in a subtile way. Also: I looove the products you recommended, I ordered a bunch of them while watching and wasn't this excited for a parcel in months.
Thank you for this great video. I’m 70 YO and have always worn minimal makeup but I learned so much from this video especially treatment of the eyes. I appreciate all your recommendations and the time you spent on this video. ❤
Thanks!
Great video. Would love to see a video like this with all affordable drugstore makeup!!
Good idea 👌🏼
Yes!
This is a great make up routine for anyone that wants to look put together especially for work but doesn’t want to look like they’re wearing makeup, I love it ❤
Hi Nikki! What a great tutorial (and refresher) for no makeup look or beginner and those of us who do wear a "bit" more makeup.
👏 This might be my favourite makeup tutorial of all time lol. Exactly what I am after as someone who prefers minimal makeup, but have often fallen into the trap of unintentionally going overboard with products, or missing certain steps (like setting concealer). This demystified so much. Thank you!!
I also love the wow brow. I prefer it over most others.
I’ve watched several of the top MUA videos for years and recently found your channel. I must say you are very talented and an excellent teacher. I’ve learned a lot of new techniques and products.
MY GIRL YESSS CANT WAIT FOR UR LIVE TOMORROW!!!!! I LOVE THE SUNDAY LIVES!!!!!!!
Dear Nikki, just tried this and it is a life saver!!! Perfect for when you need to be presentable but can't really bother, for when you have to be ready at 5.30 am, or for a zoom meeting without much warning. THANK YOU!
This is a beautiful and sophisticated no make-up makeup look.
This is probably the most well done makeup tutorial I’ve ever seen. I feel like I’ve learned more from this from the countless other videos out there. Thank you!
Love your videos! I was wondering if you could do a video specifically about which brushes to get for the minimalist/beginner makeup user? ❤
Great video - I'm on the struggle bus with makeup these days. Started trying to really redo my whole process several months ago and now I have like a lot of products many of which really are not at my skill level. Gave me some really good ideas to simplify my routine especially on work days.
First of all, YOUR SKIN IS INCREDIBLY FLAWLESS. Thanks for keeping it practical and simple. I love the concept, I will try it for sure.
Nikki, have not watched the entire video yet, but did watch the portion on the eyes, since that is my obsession right now. I'm new to your channel, but I'm hooked and have just subscribed. FYI I'm 69 and abstained from eye makeup for 18 years, but took it up again. Love eyeliner, but agree it is a challenge. I love the idea of using eyeshadow to define the lashline as you did in this video but I'd probably go with a deeper shade. What you did was terrific, but please, please share which brush you used - this is what I'm so hung up about - brushes. Yes, I agree that angle brushes can be a problem and I've tried several. I'd rather do what you did, but I need to know which brush would be best. If it's the Zoeva 226 (I've seen you use it in 2 other videos), it seems impossible to get unless you buy an entire set. Anyway, I am thrilled to have found your channel as I think you do a fantastic job of explaining, your aesthetic is beautiful, and there's something about your way of speaking that comes across as very sincere.
Omg-Nikki, these are some of the best products I’ve tried in a long time.
I typically don’t like brow gels of any kind, since my brows are so stubborn, straight and spikey. Kept an open mind and attempted it again today w NYX’ brow pen.
LIFE CHANGING. TYSM for not gatekeeping your faves!
Finally Nikki ❤ love your glam tutorials, BUT this is my everyday! Thank you 🙏
This is the single most useful and easy to follow guide I've ever come across. I tried it this morning and my little smidges of makeup are still in place and looking good 6 hours later. Thank you!
i have been waiting for a video like this, thank you! personally, i could take this to night, but i would be curious to see your take on a video like this for a "night time" look.
One of the best tutorials I've seen! Thanks. At 73 and a total makeup lover my whole life this was really helpful. I've had to really change my application over the years because my skin has changed. It has been trial & error since covid since I only wore mascara for almost 2 yrs. I mostly switched to creams but my under eye has been my biggest challenge to apply & look natural. Again, thanks so much! And happy New year!
Yes would love a part 2. As much as I love makeup, I'm just so busy, mom, work, life etc that most of the time I just don't have the time so more tips to look like I spent time on my face but actually didn't would be great! I also use the stick blush on cheeks, lips and eyes!
Nikki’s content and they way she makes her content is so much better then everyone else. She isn’t selfish with her time and really want to give us quality content, I’ve really noticed that about her.
Appreciated ❤
So much great info in this video. I love watching you work.
I have general redness and pigmentation and need coverage all over, would love to see a video on how you would approach doing natural makeup on someone with skin like mine 😊
This makeup tutorial is truly life changing. I’ve never been comfortable wearing makeup and as someone who is almost 30, it felt pretty embarrassing to ask people around me for tips and tricks when it feels like they are all advanced and also they wear makeup everyday. I’ve been watching RUclips videos for YEARS but none of them have ever explained the way you did. I followed the end tutorial and it was my first time getting an ACTUAL natural look and I felt so good and happy at the end of it, I almost teared up. The products you asked to skip and reapply are so accessible and because of this tutorial I can see myself having the confidence to explore makeup more. Thank you so much. You got yourself a new subscriber and fan.
Omg thank you! This video is made for me!!!!!! I’m very simple with makeup and don’t like a lot on my face. I want it to feel natural.
I LOVE this video! While I have fun with makeup and am pretty comfortable with most products, I never felt like I could create a good “no makeup” look. I start work at 4am from home, so I run a lot of errands in the afternoons. I really don’t want to do a full normal makeup, but want something to help me look more refreshed. You’re so great at explaining the why parts, as far as what this brush will do, what these consistencies provide, etc. Thank you so much for doing this. Love all your videos. I’m 50 (😳) and I feel like all your videos apply to a wide range of viewers. I really appreciate that.
As someone who doesn't leave the house often especially for shopping, I wish someone could put together "My Makeup Kit" for all occasions. It's so difficult to source everything from different sites, waiting on inventory to be back in stock and then not even knowing if I picked the right shade of any of them. I realize this is not a reality and I Very Much Appreciate that you have done this video. At least now I have a place to start. It just might take me months to get all of the products I want and need in the hands. This is why I continue to use the wrong products and am not getting the outcome I want. No more than I wear makeup it feels too overwhelming to source it all and I give up, again and again. Any suggestions? Should I go have sephora do my makeup and get products, or somewhere else, I want to look my best more often lately after coming out of 10+ years of basically being in bed but it feels like too much, not the application, you nailed that! But having the correct products. Any ideas would be Greatly Appreciated❣️💙
Thank you for the time and effort you put into helping so many people!
This is exactly how I feel! So overwhelmed by selecting, and even starting to get the products and don’t trust the people that work there lol. I wish there was some sort of ready to go kit for me. But I know I have to go get a shade and so on and so forth. It’s a lot. And even if you can return the items. Takes so much time and money. I need my own make up artist to take me shopping and them pick for me and I pay. lol but of course I can’t afford that
This is great Nikki, thank you! I'm the type of person who doesn't like to over dress or over make up myself from who I'm hanging out with, but I do love to wear makeup and definitely need some filling in and accentuating. Always looking for a natural look while using a broad range of cosmetics.
Thank you for this video!! I used to wear makeup back in 2017 but quickly got tired of the heavy makeup look that was so trendy at the time. Now, after prioritizing skincare and trying to get back into makeup this video has been so helpful. This video is so appreciated and you are such a professional! Again, thank you so much!! ❤
I have literally been craving this video! I haaaate the feeling of makeup on my skin, especially as the day progresses. I always intend to use less makeup because I know it looks prettier on me personally, but it’s so easy to go dull face when you just keep adding on the products. Thank you!
I gotta say thank you for this vid!!! I have been using your concealer trick all week and it been wonderful! It's hard to do your beat b4 the sun rises!!
Yes please, part 2 Very helpful video, I prefer the no-makeup look and learned a lot. Glad I discovered your channel. You are a natural educator, very well done!
This tutorial is by far my favorite makeup tutorial. Even though it’s lengthily it’s worth watching for all the tips. Thank you for putting this out there for us to see!!
Came from mixed makeup and was drawn in by your kindness - so lovely to see you are talented and a great teacher too
Ten years ago I knew how to do my makeup. Now, 4 kids later, I have no idea where to even start. Thanks for this easy to follow example! Would love a part 2!
I love this even for non beginners. I love wearing makeup but where I live can get extremely hot and humid in the summer and I still want to wear makeup and look natural without feeling like everything is melting off. Very helpful
Thank you so much Nikki! This is exactly what I was looking for, something natural for us who don't want to do the full glam everyday =) ♥
Girl, this video is a blessing! I've been a no-makeup wearer since a little before the pandemic simply because I could not get the natural look right. My skin is oily, I live in a hot climate, and everything melts off. Your tutorial not only showed me that I have been using the wrong products and techniques, but it also gave me hope to be able to wear makeup again. THANK YOU!
You’re 100% speaking my language as a non makeup wearer, thank you so much for this tutorial! I’ve never worn full face makeup because I honestly feel like it’s an art form and it’s super overwhelming to figure out where to start/just how to do something basic for casual everyday wear if I just want to look like myself but a little brighter and enhanced. Your tutorial makes it feel a lot more approachable and way less overwhelming 🙌🏾
WOW!!! Love this video; perfect for older women as well. You are indeed an artist.
Best “no makeup” tutorial I’ve seen, EVER. And the tips and tricks you gave were awesome. Thank you!
AMAZING! I love this video. I am a single mom who doesn't wear makeup often and when I do it ALWAYS looks like a cakey mess or I feel like I didn't put any on or I get half done because I didn't leave enough time to get ready or am just too slow because Influencers and makeup artists make it look so easy. Thank for this. I would love to see more like this... especially for big pores, combo skin also for a non-maker wearer.
thank you so much for this video and I hope to see more.
Really loved this video!! You’re a great teacher
My mom always wore very little to no makeup so I grew up with that example but over the years when I tried to do makeup "makeup" on myself, I quickly found out Im no good at it. I built my "own" way of doing makeup through trial and error and I feel so validated right now because this is exactly what I do on myself and a makeup PRO is actually recommending it. When you pointed out the concealer step with the finger instead of the brush that is also what I switched to because I have drier skin, every single step really, was exactly it. I also have a Dior lip balm that's my go-to but about to check out these recs 😭❤
I LOVE this video! (So yes please to Part 2 🤭)
I’ve been into makeup for 25 years, however I personally rock a more natural/minimal look. Thank you very much for making this video girl! 🤗🤗🤍🙏
You do such a good job of explaining and demonstrating. Just love your videos and learning a lot from you. Thank you!
I am always mesmerized by your brush holding technique! My daughter used to get scolded at school for holding her pencil wrong, but is quite the artist so it must be the artists in you!
Hi I just want to thank you.. I’ve been binging your videos for days and the tips and instructions you’ve given are priceless… i was hating my makeup and feeling very low.. started using your tips and recommended products and it’s amazing the difference. I’m loving my skin, makeup and setting myself in a better light. Thank you so much for what you do!!
Can’t wait for part 2! Also would love this for a mature dry skin over 55 PLEASE. This was fantastic
This would be great if we could have a part 2 with Elf or a more affordable price.
LOVED this! How you explained all the details and the why's of what you are doing. Lots of options and levels to step up if needed. Really great, thank you!
LOVED this video!!! I am a beginner and don't love wearing lots of makeup but still want a balanced look like you showed here. Will be studying this video before my next event 😊
Nikki
This technique is also for our weekend wear and or vacation.
I love the look and the technique. I often use glow screen on weekends and vacation love the suggestion of the use of bronzer. I am here for it!!!
Your techniques and tips are always on point
THANK YOU
Thanks for sharing so simple, was happy to learn about these recommended products
the perfect make up . I am a korean make up lover and i like natural and youthful make up. I hope young girls watch this.
Loved this video!! I have little experience with makeup but when I do it I prefer the low maintenance/"no makeup" makeup looks. I usually do mascara, bronzer they way you did in this video, and maybe some highlighter. But this is a great video and amazing natural results! Thanks for the tips and tricks; this looks so easy for me who's not confident with makeup or my skill level. The results were subtly beautiful and polished. You proved it's attainable for me!!
Thank you so much! I’m older and a total makeup beginner. I’ve never enjoyed makeup cause I found it daunting and didn’t want to always look “made up,” I just want to look like me but a bit better. You totally get it with this tutorial.
You’re a great teacher, love how you explain each step slowly and give me options. LOVED how you said, look avoid eyeliner if it’s too intimidating, no lashes needed. You’re not here to impress anyone with a wing lol.
When I put powder under my 52yo eyes all of the thin skin suddenly appears. I have dry skin as well so how can I avoid this? Thank you so very much for this video ❣️❣️ I have needed this very much. I've been home with bad health and am now wanting to wear makeup again. TFS 💙
There are some videos by Wayne goss that talk about more mature or drier skin. He usually advises to use a moisturiser for the undereye and as little product as possible, if I remember correctly.
I really appreciate this video as most of the makeup artists don’t show it in details and uses a lot of products.But I actually know all of these tricks because i am a minimal or no makeup “makeup “ lover girl,so some of them i found on no makeup “makeup” tutorials i have searched and watched to learn for 4 years and some I discovered by my own.❤
But techniques shown on this video might work on flawless skin but those who suffers from acne,acne scars,hyperpigmentation and deeper skin tone won’t work out.❤
What’s most important is to do skin care regularly and elaborated skin prep before any makeup,like after washing using toner,serum,moisturiser,tinted sunscreen and pore-filing primers.
What i do is use bb cream to give some coverage but i apply it with hand as it absorbs fully,then i use a concealer of my skin tone to cover blemishes and blend it out with my finger tips then use compact powder to set my full face as i have oily skin.❤
I also love cream eyeshadow,cream blush,cream highlighter, cream contour,lip and cheek tints to add some color and definition.I also love clear brow gel or tinted brow gel.and i love reapplying hydrating pigmented lip balm ..❤
Then again makeup is different for every people because of different skin type,color,face shape and prominent visuals ,different weather,season,different age,style,different occasions or purpose and also different personality,preferences and time or tastes.❤
Some are very effective to save time,specially techniques using hand and only 2/3 brushes and color pallet that almost matches but compliments your skin tone;for eyes i just do a very small wing after using a subtle eyeshadow in the crease and outer corner of my eyes which is very easy to do and i do it as i wear glasses,also curl lashes and as i have sensitive dry eyes i put mascara light handed and double coat only outer side.i normally don’t use product on lash lines.for a subtle glow i put a cream highlighter in the inner corner of the eyes and nose tip.also contour my nose and chin-line,jawline and chin a bit using brozer as i have double chin and bigger face.❤
And always remember to blend properly and for makeup less is always more ❤.
Ohh Nikki thank you soooo much for this video. I love makeup, but lately when my skin looks nice I don't wear foundation for my everyday look, and I struggled, as the same products that would work well with foundation on( concealer, blush,bronzer etc), it would look weird or patchy when I don't wear any. I've learnt so many amazing tips and tricks from this video.
Thanks ❤️
Your kindness is so moving.
Love, a non-makeup wearer who hasn’t know where to start
I love your approach to makeup application and the way you describe the techniques and types of products to use. It’s very helpful and enjoyable to watch!
Thank you so much for making this video. As someone who admires others who can put so much time and effort into their makeup I just want something that enhances my features and is simple. I hope you continue to make more of these videos to help out some of us who want simple looks or are too overwhelm with the amount of techniques and products out there.
Thank you for this video! Such a great one! Done beautifully! ❤
I’ve been wanting to streamline my makeup routine since I FINALLY have my skin looking good, and I’m nearing my later 50’s. A lot of makeup just makes me look OLDER at this point. Glad I found your tutorials.
Nikki can you please do more tutorials with the empowered palette?
Yessss please
Yes nikki please more empowered tutorials!! Wanna get my $70 worth out of it 😂
Empowered has such good shades and there aren’t a lot of looks done somehow
I learned so much from this esp about bronzer and the eyes. Thanks so much❤ the little tweaks I took from this made a difference. Way more modern and seamless.
Hi Nikki 👋, will you be doing any clients/models' makeup in this channel? Hope to see some in the future ☺
