I love the lighting you are using when you show clips of you applying makeup. It looks like a real person in reasonable light so me as the viewer can really see what the products can do. I am so tired of seeing these overlit faces with every product looking surreal. Thank you.
I agree! She looks like a real person! A very beautiful person for sure 😊 and not so bright that everything looks so flawless bc we know everyone has some flaws 😊
Shelbey, you are a timeless beauty. Very wise and seem like a true old soul. I love your content and your personality. You are one of my favorite creators. Love this video so much and can't wait to see what you create in 2022! Have a Merry Christmas! Do you have in mind a video about the worst 2021 in beauty?
I 100% agree! She is so sincere, and wise on her tips and tricks. I have tried watching a few other influencers but nobody compares to Shelby. Truly appreciate her and her videos. Thank you Shelby. Wishing you and your husband and your little Max many blessings in 2022!! :)
The Elf Shadow Stick in Magnetic is the BEST! Just like Shelbey said, it's very unique, kind of a metallic gray/mauve/violet color, that is extremely flattering on my face and has become my daily go-to! (For reference, I'm fair to light with neutral/neutral-cool undertones; my eyelids are very translucent w/pink/violet coming through); for less than $6, it's worth a try! Shelbey thanks so much for all of your videos this past year, your channel has been a wonderful distraction from life!
If you apply the L’Oréal serum foundation with a brush you can most definitely get a solid medium coverage. I wear it almost daily. I work in healthcare and under a mask for long hours and it stays gorgeous. Not a fussy base at all. Try stamping with a flat top kabuki on places you need to cover and it’s flawless!
My best drugstore find of the year is the ELF halo glow loose powder. I don’t know why I bought it-Elf usually breaks me out and I have never found a loose powder that doesn’t make me look like the crypt keeper. But this one is absolutely gorgeous over my Neutrogena Hyaluronic Tinted Moisturizer. Love it!
Shelby, I love your personality and I trust you. Would you consider going crueltyfree? Probably not. However, one can always improve…smile. Maybe a best of crueltyfree make up and skin care next year? I’d love that. I love my cats and the dog I had once and…I am always thinking of them.
I love that NYX concealer! I have mature fair skin and find the "light" shade, rather than the "fair" shade, better for my cool fair complexion because of its cool undertone. It applies beautifully and smoothly, and boy does it last! Also, I love the Ulta Beauty cream shadows, "Breakdance" and "Vinyl" (a light pinky shimmery shade) are my favorites. You previously did a wonderful video on cream shadows, which are my favorites - so easy and smooth to apply, dry down beautifully, and I haven't found them to crease at all on my 60+ lids. Love your channel, and agree with your picks more than any other creator on the platform. Merry Christmas to you and yours! 🎄
Thank you Shelbey. I always enjoy your videos. I’ve purchased may products that you feature and always find your reviews are spot on. I greatly appreciate that you also include products that best for mature skin. 💕
Julep eyeshadow sticks have been a decent discovery. They are about 10-12 on Amazon. Nice creamy texture, pretty pigment. I'd love to see shelbey review these though. She's an expert at cream shadow.
I had one, the color wasn't right for me so I didn't use it too much but the quality seemed pretty decent. It's interesting to see Julep and how they've changed since the early days when I was a member of their nail polish club!
I just purchased Copper Chic, Magnetic Pull and Metallic Mocha of those ELF shadow sticks. I am the same shade of the L'Oreal Tinted Serum and blue eyed so I hope the shades will be wearable for me. I could not pull the trigger on any Laura Mercier Caviar stick @ $29.00 each. Just cannot. Thanks for sharing and have a Merry Christmas 🎄☃️
Great compilation! L'Oreal's serum foundation has also been my absolute favorite from this year! I apply it with my fingers, I don't need to set it and the skin looks and feels so nice. It's so good it feels high end. I've reccommended it to all of my friends. :)
I discovered honest beauty this year and am a fan. I tried their cream blush, mascara, and tinted lip balm. Like all of it, but such a fan of the mascara!!
I am also a huge fan of the Nyx Tinted Skin Veil and was heartbroken when I could no longer find it in my city (Vancouver, BC). I was just in Naples, FL at the Ulta in Coconut Point Shopping Center and they still have it. It's been months since I ran out of my last tube, and when I put the new stuff on, I was freshly amazed. I used the L'Oreal true match nude in between, and it's no contest. Skin Veil still wins with me.
It took me 10+ years to find a lip liner that matched my lips--finally, I found it with Sephora's Rouge Gel Lip Liner in Crème de la Crème. Plus, it's affordable! worth giving a try if you're on the same quest!
Shelbey can you please do a video on your skin prep before makeup. I would love to know what are your fave moisturizer to prime the skin, as I have very dry skin.
Darn, I was just in Marshalls and came across one or 2 of those Honest beauty lip crayons. Exact shade you're showing!! Had it right in my hand and passed!! Lol. Looks like I'll be running back by tomorrow... 🤞
That Holika video was probably my favorite lip look you've ever done, and one of the most beautful overall looks since I started watching you eons ago! That burnt poppy sort of color is a winner on you. Not surprised it sold so well. Merry Christmas! ;-)
I may have to try that concealer. I have always used and loved the Maybelline Age Rewind Eraser, but the last year or so I have noticed it won’t stay on my inner corner where I have the most darkness.
Happy New Year Shelbey ….I would be very interested to hear what you think about the new Charlotte Tillbury, Beautiful Skin foundation…I have a drier getting older skin type, You didn’t put me wrong with the Milk Bronzer and the Daniel Sandlier Blushes … both my absolute go to’s ……the foundation I have been using for years is discontinued Skin illusion by Clarins, which is dewy and moisturising, I am nearing the end of the bottle ….and a bit lost !
I keep hearing about Beauty Pie, so I’ check them out. I am not sure I want a whole years membership because I already have a lot of makeup and I am trying to use what I have , but the reviews I am hearing concerning their products are very impressing. Thanks 😊🎄
I also love wearing the maybelline perfector with a little concealer as my base. Its great I just wish it went a little lighter. It is slightly too dark for me but workable.
Shelby, did you know that Bareminerals came out with a new Bare Pro Powder Foundation. It's supposed to be longer wearing and skincare-like? Will you be testing it?
Could you please make a video that addresses the best way to make mineral sunscreen work under Bare Minerals Original Foundation? I really struggle to make them work together, and I consider you the Bare Minerals expert! I usutuse Beauty Pie’s Ultra Light Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30. Thanks!
After 2 videos I watched about Beauty Pie and using your link to find out more about the founder, I might be joining BP as I luv Bliss and Soap and Glory lines. However, I was disappointed with the E.L.F shadow sticks as they went on nicely (over eye primer) but did not last and creased on my mature eyes.
I definitely wanted to stress how much better the BP shadow sticks are but they are only available in US and UK. The elf are a bit more accessible. I get a good lasting power with them but i only own three and could see different shades varying in longevity.
Hi Shelby, I have a couple of questions regarding which type of brushes to use to blend cream Shadows. The white brushes that you use with your cream shadow... are those synthetic or non-synthetic? I thought you were supposed to use synthetic brushes with cream shadows, and I know you often use Real Techniques brushes to blend yours. But I also see you use white brushes such as your Mac 217. I recently read those used to be natural, but they are now synthetic. Just curious typically what you generally recommended for blending cream shadows? I new to the eyeshadow thing so I'm just trying to learn the correct techniques! Thank you!!
I've been looking for the 4 in 1 since I heard about it but haven't found in my shade. Also been looking for the Loreal nude foundation but not finding my shade in that either. I was lucky however to find my shade in the bare with me concealer. Am liking it.
So totally not going to lie but I actually get so thrilled when I see you with a partnership! I'm glad that brands see your value and talent. I'm wondering how the NYX concealer compares to the Maybelline Age Rewind - I have under eye hollows and heard Age Rewind is such a good one and done for that issue, but I don't like Maybelline's ingredients , so I'm interested in the NYX
Amazing video. Love the drugstore lineup. I want to wish you all a very merry Christmas 🎄⛄🎄 especially with Max. So fun and cute. Enjoy every second ☺️. Be well woman! Can't wait for more videos. Love the same L'Oreal serum foundation it really is that good. Love the Milani cream cheek kiss blush. Love the Maybelline lifter glosses. La girl eye liners are great too.
Please do not support “Honest” Beauty. Look up how she tried to sue brilliant small mom blogger Bumni Laditan for the use of the word “honest.” 🙄 Brand is terrible.
Hate to burst everyone’s bubble about e.l.f. but they’re made in China which goes beyond the cruelty free so many women want with horrific human rights abuses against their own people. In my mind I can’t support a brand like that despite their prices.
I love the lighting you are using when you show clips of you applying makeup. It looks like a real person in reasonable light so me as the viewer can really see what the products can do. I am so tired of seeing these overlit faces with every product looking surreal. Thank you.

That nyx concealer is the best concealer I’ve ever tried.. I thought I would never find something that works for me like that does!
That’s awesome! I love it as well ❤️

Shelby...you can stil get NYX Skin veil in Canada and can probably get by ordering on the Canadian website :)

“Not everyone’s hanging out on RUclips”…. And then there’s me…. Hanging out on RUclips 😂
Right?? 😂 It’s my “me” time at the end of the day or while I have my coffee in the AM.
I just purchased Copper Chic, Magnetic Pull and Metallic Mocha of those ELF shadow sticks. I am the same shade of the L'Oreal Tinted Serum and blue eyed so I hope the shades will be wearable for me. I could not pull the trigger on any Laura Mercier Caviar stick @ $29.00 each. Just cannot.

Please please can you do a tutorial on your eye look here - love it!
I discovered honest beauty this year and am a fan. I tried their cream blush, mascara, and tinted lip balm. Like all of it, but such a fan of the mascara!!
I’ve been impressed with what I’ve tried too!! Happy holidays ❤️

I have one of the Elf shadow sticks I would definitely recommend them!
NYX always discontinues their best complexion products. So sad.
😢😢
Please do a skin tint/tinted moisturizers fav or ranking review. This was great!!!
It took me 10+ years to find a lip liner that matched my lips--finally, I found it with Sephora's Rouge Gel Lip Liner in Crème de la Crème. Plus, it's affordable! worth giving a try if you're on the same quest!
I’m so sad NYX discontinued the Face tint!!! It was one of my favorites!! Thanks for the great video! I’ll need to check a few of these out! ❤️
Eeek! I'm so excited to see some K-Beauty in here! Alright back to the video hehe. Hope you and your family are doing well Shelbey! ♥️🌹
Shelbey can you please do a video on your skin prep before makeup. I would love to know what are your fave moisturizer to prime the skin, as I have very dry skin.

Our Tj maxx still had a ton of them!
I like mixing the Maybelline and the L’Oréal together.
That Holika video was probably my favorite lip look you've ever done, and one of the most beautful overall looks since I started watching you eons ago! That burnt poppy sort of color is a winner on you. Not surprised it sold so well. Merry Christmas! ;-)
Loreal foundation is great , very happy w it ,
Great video and beauty products. Thanks for sharing.
Merry Christmas Shelby, have fun with your husband and son!🎄
Shelby it seems like you get prettier each time you post love ya merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 😘 💗 ❤ 💕
I may have to try that concealer. I have always used and loved the Maybelline Age Rewind Eraser, but the last year or so I have noticed it won’t stay on my inner corner where I have the most darkness.
Thank u for doing this it really helps to narrow down a list for new year products ❤❤
Happy holidays ❤️
I may have missed it but what do you have on your lips in this video? Love it!
Have a wonderful holiday, so glad you're safe from the tornado. 🙌
Hope you continue to feel better and enjoy the holiday season with your loved ones!
U r so effortlessly stunning 😍
Would love to see more affordable k-beauty items ( esp cream shadow and blush)
Happy New Year Shelbey ….I would be very interested to hear what you think about the new Charlotte Tillbury, Beautiful Skin foundation…I have a drier getting older skin type, You didn’t put me wrong with the Milk Bronzer and the Daniel Sandlier Blushes … both my absolute go to’s ……the foundation I have been using for years is discontinued Skin illusion by Clarins, which is dewy and moisturising, I am nearing the end of the bottle ….and a bit lost !
Very awesome picks!!!
The Sephora lip liners sound great! Thank you!
They do sound great! Another favorite content creator of mine: Jessica Braun, has also been singing their praises- I think I should try them!
Most Korean products are very ínteresting' (in a good sense). And Holika Holika BB cream is amazing..
I keep hearing about Beauty Pie, so I’ check them out. I am not sure I want a whole years membership because I already have a lot of makeup and I am trying to use what I have , but the reviews I am hearing concerning their products are very impressing. Thanks 😊🎄
You can do one day instead.
Definitely Checking out that 🤔
Loreal tinted moisturizer donl't like wearing foundation & also running 🏃♀️ to find everything on that list....
Thx ❤
I also love wearing the maybelline perfector with a little concealer as my base. Its great I just wish it went a little lighter. It is slightly too dark for me but workable.
Same! They totally need a few more shades
If you’ve never tried the Missha bb boomer, it lightens foundation products and leaves the prettiest finish on my skin. 👍
Shelby, did you know that Bareminerals came out with a new Bare Pro Powder Foundation. It's supposed to be longer wearing and skincare-like? Will you be testing it?
My favorite drug store product is the No. 7 pressed powder.
Love your videos Shelbey! Merry Christmas to you and your sweet family!!!🎄
Hi there. What brush do you use for applying bronzer/cream blush? Have a Happy New Year !
Could you please make a video that addresses the best way to make mineral sunscreen work under Bare Minerals Original Foundation? I really struggle to make them work together, and I consider you the Bare Minerals expert! I usutuse Beauty Pie’s Ultra Light Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30. Thanks!
Merry Christmas and happy, healthy and prosperous new year to you and yours 🎊🎊
Love your channel! You are so beautiful!
love your videos, Shelbey! :) you're always so pleasant to watch. Happy Holidays to you and your loved ones!
Thank you! I appreciate it ❤️ happy holidays to you as well!

The only problem I have with the L’Oréal foundation is that the 3rd or 4th ingredient is Denatured Alcohol and made me breakout.
always trust your opinions. looking forward to your picks! happy holidays ❤
Happy holidays to you!
is the maybelline or loreal foundation better for dry skin?
I've been looking for the 4 in 1 since I heard about it but haven't found in my shade. Also been looking for the Loreal nude foundation but not finding my shade in that either. I was lucky however to find my shade in the bare with me concealer. Am liking it.
Does Revlon still have shadow sticks?
So totally not going to lie but I actually get so thrilled when I see you with a partnership! I'm glad that brands see your value and talent.
I'm wondering how the NYX concealer compares to the Maybelline Age Rewind - I have under eye hollows and heard Age Rewind is such a good one and done for that issue, but I don't like Maybelline's ingredients , so I'm interested in the NYX
Sorry don't agree with the Loreal tinted serum.Tried it and it was very drying.Really felt the alcohol in it.
Hope all is well with you!
Tks for sharing Merry Christmas from my house to yours🌲
Nyx got rid of the bare with me skin tint? 😭
Amazing video. Love the drugstore lineup. I want to wish you all a very merry Christmas 🎄⛄🎄 especially with Max. So fun and cute. Enjoy every second ☺️. Be well woman! Can't wait for more videos.
Love the same L'Oreal serum foundation it really is that good. Love the Milani cream cheek kiss blush. Love the Maybelline lifter glosses. La girl eye liners are great too.
Great video. Be well ❤❤❤❤
Ulta is so often out of many shades or colors.
thanks for vid pretty lady. be safe
I’d love to try the Elf eyeshadow stick in Magnetic Pull but can never find it as it is always sold out!!
I’ve heard Holika pronounced by other RUclipsrs like a combo of Holly and Monica.
❤️❤️❤️
