This is the difference between a professional and an influencer. I love the quality of this content, and I feel like I actually learned something (many things actually) and learned why she picked products for this video. This video was such a breath of fresh air! This video was amazing and so well thought out.
As an adult who has decided I want to start wearing make up, thank you for explaining what a product is for. I'm slowly getting more confident and stepping into the make up world
I am with Rachel Tiegs… I am 44 years and I was a TomBoy my entire life and now that my kids are older I have my free time to take care of myself and start wearing makeup…. Thank you so much for these videos…. I have been following you and learning so much…. And starting to feel my confident applying and wearing makeup… 😃
Same here. Late to beauty makeup scene. I'm 49 and basically started an interest in my early 40s. Still learning just not too confident in what I'm doing. It's fun tho and that I enjoy. Always looking for SUPER easy fool proof basic routine!!
I’m over 40 and have stopped wearing makeup due to being in a bit of a slump in life. I found your video for the non makeup wearer and got inspired! But last night I was planning on going to target today to hopefully get some dupes and I wake up to this video!!! You read my mind! Thank you 🙏
I'm 40, and I used to be makeup obsessed, but have been in a slump as well; doing makeup when you're young is really different when you're a bit older! I have to learn new products, techniques etc for my current face.
Same here ladies. I was obsessed with makeup and would never go out the door without it on and life threw me a few curveballs and I lost my mojo but since watching Nikki and a couple of other channels I’m getting my zest back. I just have to put all this knowledge I’ve gained into practice ❤
Thank you so much Nikki for your amazing videos!!! ❤❤❤ I am in my early 40s and never learned how to properly apply make up and I tried so many different products that just collect dust in my make up drawer. I also paid for few make up lessons that I never seem to be able to replicate the next day. I tried to watch different online tutorials but they were still confusing to me. To make the story short, you are the best make up teacher I came across!!! Thank you so much for everything you do!!! Especially for all of us non make up wearers out there!!! Your passion and talent as well as good heart is through and through!!!
I’m the same age as you and have definitely scaled back the amount of makeup that I now use. I like a natural, put together look using drugstore makeup. This video was perfect, and the results are gorgeous.
I'm a 50+ non-makeup wearer. I saw your non-makeup tutorial, and found it very helpful. This drug store video is a good introduction to using make-up before committing to higher priced items. Thank you for doing this video.
I injured my back at work (I’m an RN) over 20 years ago and with chronic pain I went without make up (at home) for years. By using these techniques I can put on a bit of make up and feel much better about myself! It lifts my spirits.
For anyone wondering, clicking the links right now and not considering any discount codes: if you buy every single product she mentions it would cost $109.79 (no tax included)… if you ask me to have an entire routine ready for 110 seems like a pretty good deal :)
Sometimes with drugstore products the colours and textures makes things difficult and you need top flight techniques. I love that you are showing us easy techniques and top performance colours and products. Your product lists are spot on. You have such a warm and supportive approach to using and playing with makeup. You encourage us all to be more confident. Thank you
I adore these no makeup videos! Can you please do a makeup tutorial video for mature skin, or product recommendations that are least likely to settle into wrinkles?
I just bought and applied blush and bronzer on my own for the very first time...did I look like a matryoshka for a hot minute? Yes. Did I manage to fix it (It actually ended up wearable), understand my mistakes, and be encouraged enough to try again tomorrow? Hell YES! Thank you very much for this tutorial. I think that it really live up to its title of makeup for non-wearers. Easy to understand, I didn't feel overwhelmed at all, uses few simple products, and gives some options to make adjustments to ones own preperences. Love It!!!
I wanted to thank you for your incredible makeup tutorial videos. As a mature woman who has never worn makeup before, I lacked confidence to try. But your videos have given me the courage to step outside my comfort zone and give it a shot. Your expertise and warm teaching style have inspired me to embrace new possibilities. Thank you for empowering beginners like me to explore the world of makeup. I can't wait to see where this journey takes me.
SO good! I just turned 60 and have started to learn about how to do my makeup just in the last few years! It's a whole different ballgame with mature skin😃These tips are so helpful! You can almost substitute "mature skin" with "non- makeup wearer"! xx from Bend, OR
I just wanted to let everyone know that if you happen to have Kroger grocery stores in your area, they make a dupe for both the Supergoop Glowscreen SPF 40 and Glow oil SPF 40. I have only tried the one that claims to be a dupe to the Glowscreen and I love it! Dr. Dray talked about it on her channel as well.
I’ll be 24 at the end of this month & I’ve always been so interested in makeup, but I’ve never really known how to apply it correctly & I have the hardest time following tutorials. I have so many products that I’ve purchased out of the hope that I’ll magically know how to use them one day 😂 Thank you for being so informative while also being easy to listen to! Finally, some looks that I am actually able to recreate!
What!!! I remember i left a comment on the previous Luxury video and requested for a drugstore version of the same and here you are with a brand new video on the same like gurl. Thanks from the bottom of my heart. I am going to be enjoying this video so much, thanks for always recommending bombshell products. Love your channel ❤
I love your videos, and I have found with your help my perfect combination for no make up make up. For a 60 year old flight attendant that was critical. Just wanted to reach out and say thank you for making my life simpler and making me look appropriately beautiful❤❤❤❤
Hey Nikki, I’m sending a big hug and Thank You to you!!! I’m new to your channel and I’m very inexperienced when it comes to applying makeup. Over the past several months, I’ve been looking for help with this and I’m so grateful that I found you. You are an excellent teacher and a true blessing. Thank you for sharing your skills and talents with all of us! After watching this video I purchased everything that you recommended, I was only able to do this due to you utilizing affordable products. As soon as I received everything, I watched your video again and was able to follow your instructions and successfully create the everyday makeup look that I’ve been wanting. 🤩🤩 I’ve received several compliments within only 2 days of creating this look. You are an inspiration to me and now I have an elevated confidence that I’ve only experienced a few times and that was the times when I had my makeup done by a professional. I am just super excited about my new look! I look forward to learning much more from your videos. I’ll sign off now with one of my favorite quotes “Never forget the difference you’ve made” ❤❤
I have never used foundation ever. I’ve always been concealer blush, mascara, and brows - and maybe a bit of shadow. I am 50 now, a little more into makeup to look fresher, and I so appreciate your recent videos. Thank you so much for the high quality content.
Wow!! I’ve been using the Elf wow brow on and off for the past year but never thought to turn the wand and deposit color. I learn something new every time I tune in. Tfs. Love drugstore tutorials
I’m a makeup wearer and RUclips suggested this video and although I’m skilled in makeup, I really enjoyed this video! Who doesn’t love more subtle natural makeup looks? ❤
This video is everything to me! I watched your non makeup wears video with high end products and was hoping you would do a drug store one. This is so helpful for me. Thank you SOOOOO much. I love your content ❤
Long-time makeup wearer, here, but I'm always up for learning new tips and tricks. This was a fantastic video, and I believe there's something in it for every makeup-wearer, not just those gettting started afresh. Great job, you are so lovely and a terrific instructor--thank you!
Hi Nikki! I just came across your channel this week and almost instantly subscribed. As someone is is "sometimes non makeup wearing, sometimes wanting full on glam with a bold eye", Im finding you have so much to offer:) You provide such clear and kind instruction, are incredibly talented and your voice is also very calming (which is an added bonus😊) Thank you for sharing your passion, personality and skills with us💜
You are a terrific beauty guru.. Thanks for all these great tips. I’m 72 and a huge drugstore fan. I love doing my makeup, but I’m going to try this as a new idea to wear it. I think it may make me look younger. Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!
My makeup looks so much better since following this! I now understand that I've been too rough when applying makeup and I've been blending it right off my face. I appreciate this indepth/real-time tutorial. Exactly what I've been looking for!
What you said at 14:40 about blending bronzer and blush very gently was helpful. I tend to rub too hard with my brush or beauty blender and then the makeup lifts and mixes with my bronzer and it looks cakey.
Thanks for this guide! Except for aaaalways trying to cover up my dark circles, I’m pretty much a non-makeup wearer but being 46 now, after finding you here I’m slowly figuring out I’m really into non-make up makeup!! I’ve learned soooo much from your vids!! Keep them coming please 🙏🏻
you do such a great job explaining what everything does! I've seen so many videos of people putting concealer all over their face, and i never knew why
I love the revlon cream eyeshadows. Praline is another beautiful color, that is still kind of neutral but a little lighter if anyone is looking. It’s my favorite shade. Crème brûlée is a pretty champagne if you want something like that, still neutral which I love. I think I have like 6 shades. They last all day!
Thank you so much Nikki, Im 58 and really love my skin and love to take care of my skin! Im learning all ingredients that are healthy for the skin and the simplicity of the no wear makeup video really brings such a pure healthy look
Dear Nikki - your tutorials are SO AWESOME! I've learned so, so much from you! I'm 62, Italian-American from both of my beloved folks - so I have very similar coloring to yours - except, of course, I am a billion years older than you!!! Anyway, you are truly inspiring - and I can't wait to head to CVS to purchase each of these products. It is time for me to give up the products I have used for years and start using more transparent products such as the ones you've demonstrated in this tutorial. Thank you, thank you so very much for all you've taught and shared with us! You are amazing! God bless you always! Sincerely, Mrs. Meggie Ulrich, San Diego, CA 🥰💖🥰🙏✝️🙏🥰💖🥰
Regarding the brows, as a sparse eyebrow girlie myself, I have been using the got 2b glued styling spiking glue. it gives my brows a laminated, super thick and defined look. And it goes on clear and keeps your brows in check until you wash your face. Plus the size of the tube lasted me over a year. So....just thought I'd mention that for brows. Great tips Nikki🥰🥰🥰☺️
I have most of those products. I have been doing your other tutorial and it has worked beautifully with drugstore and higher end. I mostly did drugstore. I also have switched up and used my Laura Geller powders off and on for a natural look. Less is more with them to give a bit of color without the powdery cake finish. Buffing those is key. Your videos have been the most helpful to me. Thank you. ❤🥰
I haven’t worn makeup since the pandemic because I’m a healthcare worker. Seems like less is more nowadays esp for someone over 40 like me. I’m loving this natural look and can’t wait to try it. Thank you for the step by step guide. Really appreciate your tutorials!
Recently came across your page because I don't like to wear a lot of makeup and I always want that natural look. I'm not good at applying it either! I also have oily skin and I feel like my makeup NEVER lasts throughout the day! :( Love your videos! Thanks for all the helpful information!
I like the Elf stuff that I’ve tried too! This was a very helpful video. Thank you for balancing your content so well. High, middle, low price points and, perhaps most importantly, high, middle and low skill sets!
I was about to run out and get some products and I’m glad I saw this first. It’ll give me the opportunity to practice with some of the new products first and perfect them and then the things that I want to spend a little bit more won’t just sit there and expire LOL. Thank you for being such a beautiful teacher ❤
Now that I have my skin cleared up and healthy after sooo long, your videos are so good to help me get back into the everyday make up look. I loved your other “non make up make up” video and I was looking for a good dupe for something’s and then this video popped up today! Thank you so much for your content! It is so helpful and educational.
I LOVE Elf ive been telling people about it for years since it first appeared in the UK. It absolutely rivals the more luxury brands. I have a good mix in my collection. Their concealer is the best ive tried to date.
Hi Nikki, thank you for this, I wear make up everyday, but I still enjoyed watching this for a natural everyday look. And I also adore the Revlon cream shadows, I have all of them! 😄 much love from the UK xxx
Love your tutorials. Very down to earth and relatable. You explain the reasons for your suggestions, but also emphasize that viewers should do what works for them.
I absolutely love your videos. Especially since a lot of them show very natural looking make up looks. I love to put on make up but I want to look "enhanced" not "made" ☺️ Buuut, I really don't understand the excess sunscreen use of most beauty vloggers. Most of us in the western hemisphere lack vitaminD. Doesn't help if we do anything to block out the little sun we get during the day. I suffered from quite severe melasma for several years. Using high SPF didn't help at all to get rid of it or to avoid it. Since I started to supplement vitamin D in high doses my melasma dissapeared and it's not coming back when exposing my face to the sun. Of course I'm not talking about a day at the beach e.g. but the daily sun we are exposed to. By using high SPF daily throughout the year and low vitamin D level you will make youre skin even more sensitive to sun exposure.
Great video! I would LOVE a natural eye makeup video for non-makeup wearers who have hooded eyes without a crease. I have struggled because I have Asian crease-less hooded eyes. I can't wear eyeliner on my lash line and I don't have a lot of area above my eye for shadow. I am SO curious what your tips would be.
Thanks, Nikki! For the first time in my 74 years of life I am able to wear make up that brings out my best features. I fallowed this tutorial with the make up I already have and that I have not use because I did not know it’s right application. I LOVE the results! Im medium/dark complexion with rich golden tones. I get lots of complements on my beautiful natural tan and now I finally will get complements on my youthful makeup/ no makeup look. I appreciate what you do, I would have never know about these products you just featured. On my way to get the Wow Brow, Tattoo gel pencil and Sun touchable sun screen,that is all I need..Now I have a No-Make up routine! Thank you so much! How can I find out about your live videos? By the way, tell your husband to give you a very gentle kiss on your sore and hard working chick from your last tutorial.
I love you!!! I’ve watched you since watching Susan about skincare. I started getting into skincare and makeup after going through complete burnout of being a hospice nurse. I just became so hyper focused on skincare then makeup came next. It seriously helped get me out of absolute dark awful place.
Stunning 💖 I’m a 52 year old make up wearer but I love this look! Thank you for so many tips. I’ve been applying cream bronzer wrong. I have learned so much from your channel. So happy I found you 💕
I'm so easily influenced when it comes to skincare with Susan Yara and makeup with you lol so I immediately bought everything except for the no. 7 powder and I got the Laura Mercier instead. I've been into natural looks lately and this just changed the game!!! Thank you so much!!
Hi Nikki, I enjoy watching your videos. I learn little tips from you like leaving the sides of the face free of product when going with a natural make up. Thanks for being honest, warm to all level make up wearers . Happy to have found your channel ❤
I completely enjoyed the entirety of this video. You taught me so much from working slowly, building intensity, and using tapping motions. I definitely love the blush tip by putting it all over the eyes to tie the look together. As for the Revlon shadow in the shade caramel, it is now added to my shopping list!! Such a pretty effortless look with just one eyeshadow I was stunned!!! Thank you for the tips I'll take them as I do my natural makeup looks for the hotter days coming up! And by the way Nikki, you are so gorgeous as always in every video. It's an honor to watch someone who not only adores but is educated in makeup take time In their day to teach others who aren't as good and helping us make it not only easier, effortless, but actually fun. Thanks again, I really enjoyed this! ❤❤❤😊😊😊
Beautiful! At 57 I like the more natural look and have found my skin does so much better with the creams and very little powder to set…I got some good tips and will be trying the No. 7 setting powder! Thank you for your content…appreciate it! 🥰
OMG!!! This video was LIFE!!! so many tips. My favorite one was using the cream blush on the lids. Both non-make, make up videos ARE SO helpful. The techniques and tips can get applied to high end and drug store make up. THANK YOU NIKKI
And get the most compliments when I wear my blush and bronzer cream products just around my eyes and temples in the very high points of my cheekbone and a little bit of bronzer instead of contour with just the smallest amount of concealer with mascara and browse this look is timeless beautiful and youthful
Love love your videos! Your delivery and content are fantastic. Selfishly, I’d love to see more “natural” looks and more info about how to pick good shades for fair/light skin. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and for being you!
Nikki I tried the Biore UV Aqua rich SPF 50 that you recommended in a previous video, another affordable sunscreen which we now have in the UK. Great for combination/oily skin as it mattifies. I prefer the texture over the supergoop unseen and it’s less than half the price. Thank you xx
Blush is good on the eyes for when you're in a rush! I did that the other day. I love that carmel eyeshadow. It's pretty and easy! No. 7 did reformulate that powder, by the way. Another RUclipsr did a side by side, and the old one looked better. That's probably why you couldn't find it for a while. I do love that powder for setting matte foundations as an oily skinned person but haven't tried the new formula. Thanks for the video! I just subscribed!
This is got to be the best makeup application tutorial there is on RUclips! So well explained with honest opinions and so clearly executed. Nikki you have fast become my favourite Pro MUA on here…..and you’re so beautiful to look at and you have the most calming voice. I just think you’re fabulous ❤
I'm in love with your channel. You're so knowlegeable and professional in the way you explain product application. I'm 37 and I'm starting to notice fine lines around my eyes and between my eyebrows which is making me rather insecure about wearing heavy make up. I'm slowly transition to cream products since I want to moisturize my skin more ( I also have very dry/ sensitive skin) .Your product recommendations in this video are excellent. I'm definetly getting the elf concealer and cream blush.
this is the first video I've seen of yours, but you just seem like such a wonderful, friendly, kind-hearted person just based on your general demeanor and the way you address your audience. I really loved this video as a non-makeup wearer who used to wear tons of makeup and misses it, this will be a great look for me to get back into it a little bit. So grateful for all the drugstore products you shouted out, my least favorite part of makeup is always finding the right product without breaking the bank, so it's super helpful to have someone recommend the best dupes for high-end products. Thanks so much!
I just bought the brow wow and I'm so happy you recommend it!! I love love love it!!! I'm now a stay at home mom so I'm not able to buy the more expensive makeup for now so I ran to get this when you mentioned it. It's fantastic!! Thank you!!! Please do more of these videos!!!
Love your tutorials. I live in jersey Channel Islands off coast of France. I love the natural no makeup look. Will be going to my drugstore to stock up on elf. Thank u. Your beautiful too by the way😁
I love this video, thank you so much for taking the time to share it. I'm a middle aged adult and am interested in just starting to wear makeup. I love all the drugstore finds, but could you possibly give us some ideas on some other brushes? I honestly can't afford the brushes that you used in this video. A drugstore makeup brush tutorial would be awesome! I don't really know what brushes to even use! I'm literally Makeup 101 at 50, lol! Thank you again for going slow and actually explaining and teaching us the correct way to apply. I love you and all of your video's! You're so patient! 😘
Thank you thank you thank you for this video!!! Did I say thank you yet? Seriously. This is exactly what I’ve been looking for for my wedding makeup. I’ve been searching RUclips for a simple makeup look, and this is the first video I’ve found that actually fits my definition of simple. I’m feeling much less stressed about doing my own makeup for my wedding now, AND I feel confident that I’ll look like myself but better in the photos. Thank you!!!
I loved this turorial! I’m 53 and still learning how to update my nonmakeup (i use sunscreen and lipbalm for everyday) look, and I’ve been trying out some new techniques by you and another artist. This breaks things down so easily and makes it stressfree. lol I just get too stressed out w eyeliner and lipliner, bc I cant draw a straightline EVER. So, this makes things faster and easier. Overall, a gem of a tutorial. Thanks so much! ❤❤❤So gorgeous and down to earth.
Nikki, I trust your advice about setting under eye concealer with powder, but I'm 65 with actual suitcase size bags under my eyes. YSL Touche Eclat high cover #3 does help me brighten those purple blue lines under the bags. I place the concealer carefully so it mostly covers the curved line, and blend to blur the placement slightly upward and outward. I also place the concealer carefully in the inner corner/tear duct area., and blend outward with a small brush, on the eyelid to neutralize eyelid redness/discoloration. I get noticeable improvement by doing that. When I try to dust the tiniest bit of powder to set the undereye, my undereye circles become obvious again. And it looks as if I did nothing to conceal the big dark lines. So I throw up my hands, and go without setting the concealer. Luckily Touche Eclat is pretty good at not building up in fine lines. I would appreciate any advice you have. I plan to make green tea ice cubes to bring down puffiness before applying concealer. It might help. Do you have any videos doing makeup on older women? Love your videos.
Just came across this guide and I was thrilled to find that every single recommendation is already a part of my make up collection, except for theelf bronzer & Lo'real balm. So excited to try out these techniques!
This is the difference between a professional and an influencer.

Make up is fun, you get to experiment with different products, test out the textures, it's interesting! Have fun!
I'm 26 and have been wearing make up for a year now and you and a couple others have been my god sent thank you
Same here, I'm a 50+ non-makeup wearer.
You are gaining so many subs because you’re lovely and down to earth. I think some of us are tired of wild and crazy reactions/tutorials 🖤
Definitely👏
Agree wholeheartedly :)
I 💓& appreciate Ur work, Nikki & enjoy making referrals to Ur channel / vids.
🤌🏼

This is the best aotm make up tutorial I’ve seen. The instructions are very clear & there’s no background songs that overtakes the host’s voice. 👏🏻

This video is everything to me! I watched your non makeup wears video with high end products and was hoping you would do a drug store one. This is so helpful for me. Thank you SOOOOO much. I love your content ❤
Long-time makeup wearer, here, but I'm always up for learning new tips and tricks. This was a fantastic video, and I believe there's something in it for every makeup-wearer, not just those gettting started afresh. Great job, you are so lovely and a terrific instructor--thank you!
Hi Nikki! I just came across your channel this week and almost instantly subscribed. As someone is is "sometimes non makeup wearing, sometimes wanting full on glam with a bold eye", Im finding you have so much to offer:) You provide such clear and kind instruction, are incredibly talented and your voice is also very calming (which is an added bonus😊) Thank you for sharing your passion, personality and skills with us💜
You are a terrific beauty guru.. Thanks for all these great tips. I’m 72 and a huge drugstore fan. I love doing my makeup, but I’m going to try this as a new idea to wear it. I think it may make me look younger. Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!
My makeup looks so much better since following this! I now understand that I've been too rough when applying makeup and I've been blending it right off my face. I appreciate this indepth/real-time tutorial. Exactly what I've been looking for!
What you said at 14:40 about blending bronzer and blush very gently was helpful. I tend to rub too hard with my brush or beauty blender and then the makeup lifts and mixes with my bronzer and it looks cakey.
Thanks for this guide! Except for aaaalways trying to cover up my dark circles, I’m pretty much a non-makeup wearer but being 46 now, after finding you here I’m slowly figuring out I’m really into non-make up makeup!! I’ve learned soooo much from your vids!! Keep them coming please 🙏🏻
Same!
you do such a great job explaining what everything does! I've seen so many videos of people putting concealer all over their face, and i never knew why
I love the revlon cream eyeshadows. Praline is another beautiful color, that is still kind of neutral but a little lighter if anyone is looking. It’s my favorite shade. Crème brûlée is a pretty champagne if you want something like that, still neutral which I love. I think I have like 6 shades. They last all day!
ELF has been dominating lately!
This is so helpful for an everyday look! I am almost 70 and love your tutorials! The Elf HD Powder is also excellent!
I could listen to you all day! THank you for these helpful videos!!
Thank you so much Nikki, Im 58 and really love my skin and love to take care of my skin! Im learning all ingredients that are healthy for the skin and the simplicity of the no wear makeup video really brings such a pure healthy look
Dear Nikki - your tutorials are SO AWESOME! I've learned so, so much from you! I'm 62, Italian-American from both of my beloved folks - so I have very similar coloring to yours - except, of course, I am a billion years older than you!!! Anyway, you are truly inspiring - and I can't wait to head to CVS to purchase each of these products. It is time for me to give up the products I have used for years and start using more transparent products such as the ones you've demonstrated in this tutorial. Thank you, thank you so very much for all you've taught and shared with us! You are amazing! God bless you always! Sincerely, Mrs. Meggie Ulrich, San Diego, CA
🥰💖🥰🙏✝️🙏🥰💖🥰
BEST natural look makeup tutorial EVER!❤❤❤
I’m so glad I’ve found your chanel!
I haven’t been this excited about makeup in ages!
Thank you!!!!❤❤❤❤
This is great Nikki. Haley Kim also has fantastic tutorials for beginners and the no-makeup makeup look.
Regarding the brows, as a sparse eyebrow girlie myself, I have been using the got 2b glued styling spiking glue. it gives my brows a laminated, super thick and defined look. And it goes on clear and keeps your brows in check until you wash your face. Plus the size of the tube lasted me over a year. So....just thought I'd mention that for brows. Great tips Nikki🥰🥰🥰☺️
I have most of those products. I have been doing your other tutorial and it has worked beautifully with drugstore and higher end. I mostly did drugstore. I also have switched up and used my Laura Geller powders off and on for a natural look. Less is more with them to give a bit of color without the powdery cake finish. Buffing those is key. Your videos have been the most helpful to me. Thank you. ❤🥰
I haven’t worn makeup since the pandemic because I’m a healthcare worker. Seems like less is more nowadays esp for someone over 40 like me. I’m loving this natural look and can’t wait to try it. Thank you for the step by step guide. Really appreciate your tutorials!
Recently came across your page because I don't like to wear a lot of makeup and I always want that natural look. I'm not good at applying it either! I also have oily skin and I feel like my makeup NEVER lasts throughout the day! :( Love your videos! Thanks for all the helpful information!
I like the Elf stuff that I’ve tried too! This was a very helpful video. Thank you for balancing your content so well. High, middle, low price points and, perhaps most importantly, high, middle and low skill sets!
I was about to run out and get some products and I’m glad I saw this first. It’ll give me the opportunity to practice with some of the new products first and perfect them and then the things that I want to spend a little bit more won’t just sit there and expire LOL. Thank you for being such a beautiful teacher ❤
i’m a makeup girl lol but i am loving a more natural look and i love this. so fresh and pretty esp for summertime. 😍🥰
I've been wearing this since it came out! It's so slept on.
Now that I have my skin cleared up and healthy after sooo long, your videos are so good to help me get back into the everyday make up look. I loved your other “non make up make up” video and I was looking for a good dupe for something’s and then this video popped up today! Thank you so much for your content! It is so helpful and educational.
You are the best at teaching us normal mortals, glad you channel is growing! You are real and so good at what you do.
I LOVE Elf ive been telling people about it for years since it first appeared in the UK. It absolutely rivals the more luxury brands. I have a good mix in my collection. Their concealer is the best ive tried to date.
This look is so stunning! Just as classy and effortless looking as the high-end version was. Nikki has the best tutorials and advice
Hi Nikki, thank you for this, I wear make up everyday, but I still enjoyed watching this for a natural everyday look. And I also adore the Revlon cream shadows, I have all of them! 😄 much love from the UK xxx
Holy Grail Tutorial 🎉🎉🎉🎉
You're beautiful even without makeup too! Thank you Nikki!❤
That is pretty much the Miami look in a nutshell!!! My clients are very natural...but sometimes super glam ❤
Love your tutorials. Very down to earth and relatable. You explain the reasons for your suggestions, but also emphasize that viewers should do what works for them.
Je pensais que vous utiliseriez le Elf Halo glow liquid filter. I love this product. Thanks ❤Love the result, You explain so well!
That tightline eyeliner trick makes my face look SO much better!
I absolutely love your videos. Especially since a lot of them show very natural looking make up looks. I love to put on make up but I want to look "enhanced" not "made" ☺️
Buuut, I really don't understand the excess sunscreen use of most beauty vloggers. Most of us in the western hemisphere lack vitaminD. Doesn't help if we do anything to block out the little sun we get during the day. I suffered from quite severe melasma for several years. Using high SPF didn't help at all to get rid of it or to avoid it. Since I started to supplement vitamin D in high doses my melasma dissapeared and it's not coming back when exposing my face to the sun. Of course I'm not talking about a day at the beach e.g. but the daily sun we are exposed to. By using high SPF daily throughout the year and low vitamin D level you will make youre skin even more sensitive to sun exposure.
Great video! I would LOVE a natural eye makeup video for non-makeup wearers who have hooded eyes without a crease. I have struggled because I have Asian crease-less hooded eyes. I can't wear eyeliner on my lash line and I don't have a lot of area above my eye for shadow. I am SO curious what your tips would be.
Thanks, Nikki! For the first time in my 74 years of life I am able to wear make up that brings out my best features. I fallowed this tutorial with the make up I already have and that I have not use because I did not know it’s right application. I LOVE the results! Im medium/dark complexion with rich golden tones. I get lots of complements on my beautiful natural tan and now I finally will get complements on my youthful makeup/ no makeup look. I appreciate what you do, I would have never know about these products you just featured. On my way to get the Wow Brow, Tattoo gel pencil and Sun touchable sun screen,that is all I need..Now I have a No-Make up routine! Thank you so much! How can I find out about your live videos? By the way, tell your husband to give you a very gentle kiss on your sore and hard working chick from your last tutorial.

I love you!!! I’ve watched you since watching Susan about skincare.
I started getting into skincare and makeup after going through complete burnout of being a hospice nurse. I just became so hyper focused on skincare then makeup came next. It seriously helped get me out of absolute dark awful place.
Stunning 💖 I’m a 52 year old make up wearer but I love this look! Thank you for so many tips. I’ve been applying cream bronzer wrong. I have learned so much from your channel. So happy I found you 💕
Thank you so much for taking the time to teach us so much.
You are a breath of fresh air in the makeup world. So glad i came across your channel. Thank you❤
Thank you for the wonderful compliment!!!
I'm so easily influenced when it comes to skincare with Susan Yara and makeup with you lol so I immediately bought everything except for the no. 7 powder and I got the Laura Mercier instead. I've been into natural looks lately and this just changed the game!!! Thank you so much!!
Hi Nikki, I enjoy watching your videos. I learn little tips from you like leaving the sides of the face free of product when going with a natural make up. Thanks for being honest, warm to all level make up wearers . Happy to have found your channel ❤
I completely enjoyed the entirety of this video. You taught me so much from working slowly, building intensity, and using tapping motions. I definitely love the blush tip by putting it all over the eyes to tie the look together. As for the Revlon shadow in the shade caramel, it is now added to my shopping list!! Such a pretty effortless look with just one eyeshadow I was stunned!!! Thank you for the tips I'll take them as I do my natural makeup looks for the hotter days coming up! And by the way Nikki, you are so gorgeous as always in every video. It's an honor to watch someone who not only adores but is educated in makeup take time In their day to teach others who aren't as good and helping us make it not only easier, effortless, but actually fun. Thanks again, I really enjoyed this! ❤❤❤😊😊😊
Beautiful! At 57 I like the more natural look and have found my skin does so much better with the creams and very little powder to set…I got some good tips and will be trying the No. 7 setting powder! Thank you for your content…appreciate it! 🥰
OMG!!! This video was LIFE!!! so many tips. My favorite one was using the cream blush on the lids. Both non-make, make up videos ARE SO helpful. The techniques and tips can get applied to high end and drug store make up. THANK YOU NIKKI
And get the most compliments when I wear my blush and bronzer cream products just around my eyes and temples in the very high points of my cheekbone and a little bit of bronzer instead of contour with just the smallest amount of concealer with mascara and browse this look is timeless beautiful and youthful
Love love your videos! Your delivery and content are fantastic. Selfishly, I’d love to see more “natural” looks and more info about how to pick good shades for fair/light skin. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and for being you!
Nikki I tried the Biore UV Aqua rich SPF 50 that you recommended in a previous video, another affordable sunscreen which we now have in the UK. Great for combination/oily skin as it mattifies. I prefer the texture over the supergoop unseen and it’s less than half the price. Thank you xx
So exciting to see you do your brows! You are such a great teacher Nikki ❤
Blush is good on the eyes for when you're in a rush! I did that the other day. I love that carmel eyeshadow. It's pretty and easy! No. 7 did reformulate that powder, by the way. Another RUclipsr did a side by side, and the old one looked better. That's probably why you couldn't find it for a while. I do love that powder for setting matte foundations as an oily skinned person but haven't tried the new formula. Thanks for the video! I just subscribed!
You’re so natural Nikki and I learn so much from you! I love your honesty and genuineness! My current fav makeup RUclipsr ❤
This is got to be the best makeup application tutorial there is on RUclips! So well explained with honest opinions and so clearly executed. Nikki you have fast become my favourite Pro MUA on here…..and you’re so beautiful to look at and you have the most calming voice. I just think you’re fabulous ❤
I'm in love with your channel. You're so knowlegeable and professional in the way you explain product application. I'm 37 and I'm starting to notice fine lines around my eyes and between my eyebrows which is making me rather insecure about wearing heavy make up. I'm slowly transition to cream products since I want to moisturize my skin more ( I also have very dry/ sensitive skin) .Your product recommendations in this video are excellent. I'm definetly getting the elf concealer and cream blush.
this is the first video I've seen of yours, but you just seem like such a wonderful, friendly, kind-hearted person just based on your general demeanor and the way you address your audience. I really loved this video as a non-makeup wearer who used to wear tons of makeup and misses it, this will be a great look for me to get back into it a little bit. So grateful for all the drugstore products you shouted out, my least favorite part of makeup is always finding the right product without breaking the bank, so it's super helpful to have someone recommend the best dupes for high-end products. Thanks so much!
Thank you for doing drugstore! Much needed for my budget at the moment 😊
Been waiting for this video 👌🏽🙌🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I love how yoy explain everything and what effects it gives with different applications. You are so much FUN to watch.
I love the L'Oréal 4 in 1 balm ❤
I just bought the brow wow and I'm so happy you recommend it!! I love love love it!!! I'm now a stay at home mom so I'm not able to buy the more expensive makeup for now so I ran to get this when you mentioned it. It's fantastic!! Thank you!!! Please do more of these videos!!!
AHHHH my prayers have been answered! Thank you thank you Nikki!
You are honestly flawless with or without the makeup. I do appreciate your videos. They are all so helpful. Thank you. ❤
You really are an amazing teacher! I am 60, and even though i have worn makeup all my life, I am learning soooo much! Many thanks!
That’s incredible to hear!!! Thank you for watching Linda!🤗❤️
Love your tutorials. I live in jersey Channel Islands off coast of France. I love the natural no makeup look. Will be going to my drugstore to stock up on elf. Thank u. Your beautiful too by the way😁
This is my favorite natural drug make up tutorial yet ♥️♥️
I love this video, thank you so much for taking the time to share it. I'm a middle aged adult and am interested in just starting to wear makeup. I love all the drugstore finds, but could you possibly give us some ideas on some other brushes? I honestly can't afford the brushes that you used in this video. A drugstore makeup brush tutorial would be awesome! I don't really know what brushes to even use! I'm literally Makeup 101 at 50, lol! Thank you again for going slow and actually explaining and teaching us the correct way to apply. I love you and all of your video's! You're so patient! 😘
Thank you thank you thank you for this video!!! Did I say thank you yet? Seriously. This is exactly what I’ve been looking for for my wedding makeup. I’ve been searching RUclips for a simple makeup look, and this is the first video I’ve found that actually fits my definition of simple. I’m feeling much less stressed about doing my own makeup for my wedding now, AND I feel confident that I’ll look like myself but better in the photos. Thank you!!!
So pretty without makeup!❤
What a lovely soft natural look. Thank you
Your skin is so beautifullllll!!!!! Could you please do a skincare routine video?!!❤❤😊
I loved this turorial! I’m 53 and still learning how to update my nonmakeup (i use sunscreen and lipbalm for everyday) look, and I’ve been trying out some new techniques by you and another artist. This breaks things down so easily and makes it stressfree. lol I just get too stressed out w eyeliner and lipliner, bc I cant draw a straightline EVER. So, this makes things faster and easier. Overall, a gem of a tutorial. Thanks so much! ❤❤❤So gorgeous and down to earth.
Love this!
Nikki, I trust your advice about setting under eye concealer with powder, but I'm 65 with actual suitcase size bags under my eyes. YSL Touche Eclat high cover #3 does help me brighten those purple blue lines under the bags. I place the concealer carefully so it mostly covers the curved line, and blend to blur the placement slightly upward and outward. I also place the concealer carefully in the inner corner/tear duct area., and blend outward with a small brush, on the eyelid to neutralize eyelid redness/discoloration. I get noticeable improvement by doing that. When I try to dust the tiniest bit of powder to set the undereye, my undereye circles become obvious again. And it looks as if I did nothing to conceal the big dark lines. So I throw up my hands, and go without setting the concealer. Luckily Touche Eclat is pretty good at not building up in fine lines. I would appreciate any advice you have. I plan to make green tea ice cubes to bring down puffiness before applying concealer. It might help. Do you have any videos doing makeup on older women? Love your videos.
I am so glad I found your channel through Allie Glines. You don't make fun of non make up wearers. You actually teach! I love it ❤
Just came across this guide and I was thrilled to find that every single recommendation is already a part of my make up collection, except for theelf bronzer & Lo'real balm. So excited to try out these techniques!
