I feature products of my choosing. I am not a makeup artist, merely a makeup and beauty enthusiast. The products I use in these videos are either purchased by me or sent to me by companies which I will always disclose. Some of the links in this description box are affiliated. My opinions reflected in these videos are 100% my own.
I’m no where near able to afford luxury things, but I think what I appreciate about you and your content is that you are unapologetic about your purchases and you don’t overly try to justify it. It is what it is. Actually, your content shows me that I do not need luxury items. I see the shoes, the bags, the clothes, etc. I see you enjoy them and I’m so happy. But I don’t desire them. I basically enjoy them through you? Does that make sense? I love seeing the things you buy. I understand the appeal. But I don’t have to own them myself to enjoy your videos. You are a calm, real voice in a land of fake people and fake smiles.
That makes perfect sense to me. I watch videos the same way at times.
I feel the same way and glad to see it articulated! I love watching Michelle unbox things I would never buy/can't afford and truly love them - not for status, but because she actually likes them. I've learned to appreciate the fancy things I can afford in the same genuine way.
I think it’s admirable that you respect your husband’s preference about privacy, sleep, whatever and part of why you’ve had a long successful relationship. We love you michele!
Please make a 5 am video! I'd love to see your morning routines
This may sound crazy. But your vlogs have helped me through a very difficult time. My closest friend passed away three weeks ago, and your vlogs have been my escape. I enjoy them very much and they are very soothing. They have helped my mind to focus on something else. Keep them coming!
I’m so sorry for your loss🙏🏻
Oh no I’m so sorry!! Thinking of you and sending healing thoughts! ❤
So sorry for your loss. Sending love ❤
I took on caring for my demented mom right as my own menopause crashed in. Truly a 36-hour day, as the book title says. I learned how to sleep anywhere - mostly sitting up in a bedside chair in a hospital room somewhere. So I sleep maybe three or four hours at a time. Mom's been gone 16 years, and I don't think I'll ever train myself to sleep better, at least not without drugs. Thanks for the videos - though your lifestyle is way different than mine, you are truly an enjoyable daily habit.
I love to wake up early before anyone and drink my coffee and watch my favorite beauty RUclipsrs, Michele being my favorite! It’s bliss!
I love getting up at 5. I think my body reset at menopause but I automatically wake up. I love the quiet & alone time. Family complains my nespresso machine makes too much noise though.
you are never dull, always amusing, gentle, calming, informative, smart :). so happy to have discovered you. Thank you!!!!
Thank you for your comments about your pug. My Daisy is 15. She is a Maltese cross and has been the light of my life. She is in heart failure, and it has become very challenging as she wakes up about three times during the night. You validated that when our pets age, we must be there for them no matter what.
Sending love to you and Daisy 🩷🩷🩷
Sending you prayers for you and your pup. ❤
I’ve been waking up super early since my sons were small and now they’re grown adults. I am in the gym by 5 AM every day. It’s a magical time as you said. It’s a time before the regular day gets started and it’s almost like a meditation to yourself before the world takes over.
Working out early is amazing! If you are a good sleeper it’s great!!
Theresa and Alex are a treasure! Truly. Oh, how wonderful it would be to see you and Theresa talking just about anything.
Oh my gosh Michelle, when you said you enjoy being alone and enjoy quiet, I believe we are kindred spirits. As I have gotten older, I respect the quietness and alone time more than ever. You can call it Zen or whatever you want, but I think when you can be alone with yourself you have reached the best feeling in the world. So, thank you for sharing.❤
I find those quiet hours in the early morning such a gift to myself....and I respect your respect for your husband's preferences...never understood the curiosity..it's your jam ( with Butters of course) and that's more then enough from where I'm sitting.....:))))
This Q & A was so interesting. I think you have such a pragmatic approach to life and you’re very grounded, which is so refreshing to hear. Merry Christmas from the U.K. ❤
I wake up at 5:30 every morning. I too love the early morning hours. We live in a high rise condo in Chicago facing Lake Michigan. After I finish my skin care routine, etc. I love drinking my coffee and watching the sun come up over the lake. It’s a wonderful way to start the day.
I absolutely love that you vlog, so much so that you’re one of two makeup channels I still follow. I find your vlogs very engaging. Also, I know no one asked me, but if I could choose anyone living or dead to have dinner with I’d definitely choose Eleanor of Aquitaine. She had two marriages, ten children, unequalled power for her time and lived eighty years. She fascinates me.
I enjoy watching your videos and really like your classy style of vlogging. Love the harmony and calmness coming from you ❤
Fun video. I feel the same about the early morning. In bed by 9 up around 4-5 (also because of my 12 year old dog). The early morning is a gift of quiet and solitude. Thanks for sharing with us.
27:23 This was an interesting question. I think if you have a good relationship that works. I was under the impression that a lot of modern relationship have separate finances. I would like to know in the comments here if you do and how that works. It sort of sounds like if you have a power struggle over finances that means you don't have a good relationship. That makes sense. 28:35 but you just said I am using my own cash... that is confusing to me if the finances are joint. I am just trying to understand how others make this work. I like having my own cash / accounts personally.
Agreed! I'm 47, have been married 2x and both times had completely separate banking accounts, cards, and split expenses 50/50. It's worked amazingly for me. I think primarily because I've been financially independent my whole life. There's also no worries about spending money that way. Of course nuances come into play. Just my experience! ❤
Early mornings are beautiful and peaceful!
I started waking early for yoga
but 6 o’clock is ok for me 😉
So glad I watched this … I Luv your stories & opinions about diff things… your such an interesting person & good conversationalist !
Michelle, I just went down a rabbit hole looking at Louis Vuitton steamer trunks and I am blown away. There are so many beautiful, unique pieces.
Hi Michelle! Long time viewer first time commenter 😂. I wanted to share that I did my first major art history paper on the winged victory of samothrace. This was before I saw it in person myself at the Louvre. It was just as glorious as I thought it would be. Breathtaking! Love your content and vibe 😊. Take care, Pam
Michele darling … I am an early riser and I love it. I was a marathon runner decades ago and I was so very discipline with my training runs and preferred training early in the morning because so quiet and the fresh air totally loved it ! I completely agree with you. I still wake up early ❤ I do go to bed between 8/9. Thank you for sharing.
Just stopping by to say that you have an amazing voice. So easy to listen to and calming
You popped up on my recommended page and I’m so happy you did! I really appreciate your content and even further your outlook on some of the topics you discussed in this video. Getting ready to binge watch 🤗
Your vlogs are so soothing to me…like a friend just sitting down for a chat! And based on everything you said here, I have no doubt we could be friends if we met in real life. Thanks for being so open and also for your commitment to Mishmas. It’s truly not December unless I’m watching your videos!
Listened to this while shoveling my driveway, thank you for inspiring and keeping me distracted from the task 😅😂❤️
Love the Q and A. Your answers were honest , fun and interesting.
Michele, I love your makeup videos but I also love the fashion, home and even the topics like when you shared about the health journey you began recently. I could so much identify with your experiences.
I would love it if you decided to do a handbag line… I love your style and attention to details.❤
I loved this. Gives a bit more insight into who you really are, aside from an influencer. You’re so relatable, it’s wonderfully refreshing ❤
I really enjoyed getting to know you a bit better, you seem very balanced! Loved the fact that you swear like a navvy, that surprised me! I would also love a black/gold hardware Birkin 30! . Classic and timeless.
I love getting up at 5 a.m. too… I am on my own for few hrs before everybody gets up ;).
Oh yes! I completely agree on those early morning peaceful and quiet moment. It is a feeling of being one with yourself and nature. So calming! Thank you for sharing.
I absolutely know what you mean about being alone in the morning!!! I love that feeling. I’ve always loved it. It’s so beautiful, right?!
I find early morning routines inspirational. Also, I would love to see an updated home tour and reno/decor update!
I loveThe Mission and the soundtrack too. Such a good story about redemption. Thanks for reminding me. I’m going to watch it again soon
So interesting to talk about money power dynamics- I think it's such a difficult subject to talk about and loved what you said. Really enjoyed the AMA! Can't wait for skincare : )
Michele I really enjoyed this video. I seem to feel more anxious turning 50 and you just gave me a sense of calm. It's your honesty and realness. Thanks for being you!
I wake around 4am every morning (not by choice) and in the summer I walk my dog, do some gardening, yoga and totally agree that it’s a magical time. However in the winter here in England where it doesn’t get light until 8am it is horrible, dark, cold and despite continuing with my yoga I hate those 4 plus hours waiting for the sun to come up.
I’m with you there, I tend to stay in bed trying to go back to sleep but it never works. But I’m too tired to get up. I don’t mind getting older and menopause but it has so affected my sleep.
Use the steamer trunk as a table-night stand! Put glass on top to protect it if you put lamps etc. on it!😊 love the vlogs Michele, have been listening to you for years- must be 2019 when you started. Happy Mishmas,or Merry Christmas!
I loved watching this video, feels like a chat with a friend. Merry Christmas Michele.
You're brave to answer questions about your life...i could never do that,i feel it's no ones business how you live...the less people know the better...and i totally agree with your opinion on aging and living a long life...i have absolutely no desire to,especially in todays world.
Love your videos. They are helpful to me when I am considering a splurge purchase 😊
I am definitely a morning person and truly love early mornings.
Fun video, Michele! I can't wait for the declutter video when I'm vegging out over the winter break!
Thank you for the Q&A vlogmas! You have great responses like to the morning & night owls, spouses asking about shopping & being a team when it comes to money. Not easy answering these questions but you always handle them like a pro. 😊❤️
I started getting up around 4 am for work at age 36. And I am glad I kept that habit. I changed my job at age 42 and I really needed to get up at 4 am bc my shift started at 6 or 6:30 am so I had to leave the house at 5 am. Now I am turning 44 yrs young I am loving getting up early every day and on my days off I just go back to sleep and get up at 8:30am when I am tired. Extra hours means that I get to see the sunrise, I get stuff done (work stuff , housework, organizing etc).
...getting up early requires sleep🙄...stupid menopause 😡
I totally understand the aloneness. I ❤ it!
Nobody is outside
I love it
Listening to the birds while the sun comes up
The updated guideline for the first colon cancer screening is actually at 45 years old now!
I was very moved as a greek that your best moment of 2023 was when you laid your eyes at "Winged Victory of Samothrace" .... so powerful statue ... !
I agree with you on the dream dinner party guest! She is so admirable in who she was as a woman and as the Queen in a time where she was cornered!
Trading Places is one of my all time faves!
I can’t wait until I have time to sit down and enjoy this deliciously long Mishmas Video 🥰. Thank you for making this @Michele ♥️🎄
Your channel is one of my very favorite, I wish you the best in the upcoming year and keep continuing, l love your style and fashion as well as the makeup ❤
Michelle, thank you for sharing your time and thoughts - down to earth and genuine as always. I feel hopeful watching your videos and more confident as a person. So thank you!
That's so wonderful to hear, thank you!
I also enjoy those early morning hours. I'm alone and can do and be what i want. It started due to illness then work, and i absolutely love it, like you.
Most youtuber we always wonder how they can afford stuff, do they have different persona off camera and such…. Not with Michele, that’s why it’s really relaxing watching her video without all these questions popping out of our head……she’s classy,truthful and relatable…. My current favourite youtuber at the moment for sure
I so agree, I love the quiet early mornings, too 😊
🤣 A Louis Vuitton steamer trunk with butters plastered all over it. That was not an answer I was expecting!!!! Thank you Michele for that entertaining hour lololol
I love this long, chatty video!❤ Feels like we’re all sitting around, doing our makeup, and catching up. 💄☕️🥰 I can’t believe Mishmas is almost over!!! 😩🥺
Love you, love your content, and hope you enjoy those days in bed just snuggling after Mishmas!! ❤️
Nikki I love your makeup style. It is modern, classic, and beautifying. Thank you for the inspiration! 🤍
I'm not a morning person. I'm naturally a night owl, but I try to keep the normal schedule because I need to do stuff in the normal world. I wish I was an early morning person though.
@reneelusty Michele, you're so well spoken and wise. I really enjoyed this video and hearing all your thoughts and your perspective on life in general. Being present and grateful for everything and everyone around you is exactly what's most important. Can't wait to see what's around the corner in 2024! Happy and healthy holidays to you and yours! xo
The Hours is SO good!!!! Appreciate your videos, and your content, enjoy everything you do!
It’s so lovely getting up between 4-5am. If you live in an area very populated it’s so nice to know nobody is outside yet. I love taking a walk around our neighborhood.
I was the same. Stay up forever now it’s I’m in at 8-8:30. Priorities shift as u get older
Great Q&A Michelle. Love your honesty. Also love that you’re a big curser. I am too!😊😊
I finally figured out why RUclips suggested you to me when your content is so different from everything else I watch - knitting! I watch a lot of knitting RUclips and I didn't realize you used to publish knitwear patterns! I checked them out on Ravelry and you designed a lot of beautiful things. Anyway, I love your videos. I never really got into beauty RUclips because it seemed so much younger than I am, but we are similar ages and I relate to you a lot. Gen X unite! Do you, or any of your viewers, have any suggestions for other similar channels I might like?
I am exactly like you!! I wake up between 4 and 5 am every morning. Initially it was because of pain that I have in my neck and lower back. Now I just love the peace and quiet and being alone before the rest of my family wake!
"Get down and dirty with Queen Elizabeth." I am literally laughing out loud!!! Thank you!
Love the vlogs!
I love to see more fashion contents from you > I changed from being in the fashion business (of 20 yrs) to medical related work. The income is insane but I really missed the creativity and excitement I brought to ppl around me everyday during my fashion years. I always get excited when I see you in your closet pulling out your gorgeous items.
That was one of the best, if not THE best video of yours I’ve ever seen Michele! I know you said you haven’t consulted before but mentoring (or life coaching) would be something you’d be really great at 😊❤
I find solace in the wee hours of the morning. I’m a night owl
I agree with you on the steamer trunk, just like in the old movies. That would be great!!
I am both a morning and evening person. I’m awake at 5:30am on the weekdays and stay up late on the weekends. I love the quiet time in the a.m. too. Poor Miss Butters with a breakfast tray on her back! Old School and Trading Places are classics. Office Space is a must for those of us in corporate America. As for living in NY, as a New Yorker, I’m not ready to leave. Friends keep telling me to go, but I love the city and can see myself living here as a retired person. FYI…I have a potty mouth too. It’s a NYC thing😂
This is so enjoyable!!! I’m preparing my dinner and listening to this video👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 please do more of these videos🩷
Come to Patagonia we definitely will love it.🎉
Omg. I really loves doing long runs in the morning before work catching up with sunrise is the best feeling ever. Now I’ve change my workplace, dont have the time to do morning run anymore. Its so sad but I have to 😢
Hi Michele thank you for answering these questions and sharing part of you with us. Love your Vlogs🎄🎄
Love love love The Hours!!! The book as well!!! I rewatch at least once a year!
Always love a chance to get to know ya better, Michele! You’re quite an extraordinary person. Hope you’re enjoying the holidays & your break from screens. Sending my love❣️❣️🎊🎊🎁🎁
Michele, how do you like your new haircut with the layers?
I think it looks great
Also, Trading Places is a Christmas movie, I will die on that hill! One of my faves 💖
this was such a fun video, i love your honesty and humor.
I get up super early too before my kids. I like to prep myself for the day. I do yoga, my meditations and drink my coffee. Love love love waking up early most days ❤️😂😅
I would love to see your knitting videos
I learned to drive in a Pinto …. No way did any of my cars reflect that 😜. I totally get loving lower sporty car….. my first car was a Toyota Celica ST - I LOVED that car!
I know this is forward but I’m wondering how you dealt with finances- a Porsche 911 is like upward $120,000 etc. did you invest wisely? I don’t know anyone in knit supplies that could afford a 911 Porsche- and they don’t have children.
I am an early morning person as well… 5 am my eyes pop open. But I also go to bed really early. Farm chores dictated my hours and now my body is in the habit .. the hard part is when on the occasion I stay out late I regret it the next day because even though I’m tired I can’t sleep in .😊
Thank you for your discussion about finances and trust. It is such a challenge when one party goes off on their own making major decisions and commitments that affect both of you and without your input. BTW, missing your wonderful scarves.
I am Korean adopted its so wonderful seeing same skin tones with the makeup blogs and you really know your stuff and have an eye for makeup and all things beauty
I think if people are really happy and appreciate the little things and they won’t be bothered by what other people have to do
I love that we both said, "A Yacht!" at the same time, with the same enthusiasm. Ah! The dream!
Thank you for bringing so genuine. Your videos have taught me so much and make up and skin care. I’m a better me because of you!! Thank you again
I get up at 3 am five days a week for work at 430 am. I have my coffee and do my makeup in complete silence and it’s glorious! ❤
Merry Christmas Michelle! Every year you treat us to new experiences with skincare, makeup, fashion, travel, cooking and fine dining! Enjoy your channel very much - you’re the best.
There is something soothing and peaceful about being up so early and hours before everyone else.
