I usually find that moisturising primers are just moisturisers with some extra silicones in for that smoooooooth velvety like finish! But other than the sometimes uniques benefits that some moisturisers boast…..other than that…there’s not much difference!! 😅
No shade to Hannah but her saying that the Juvia's Place eyeshadow were too pigmented made me pick them up... need that for colours to show up on my deep skin
Brand was made for people of deeper skin tones. That’s why it was so wrong when they didn’t put POC on their initial PR list. Like Jackie Aina so it went to people like fair skinned Nikki tutorials and the boycott ensued. Have never purchased them because of this.
Im stark pale transparent but olive toned. So like a yellow hued Wednesday Addams. Most eye shadows wont show on me correctly either bc they were made for red based skin (most Caucasian) not yellow based. Juvia’s high pigments show correctly on my skin but ABH, UD, most others-all look like I have a bruised eye or pink eye. My Indo-Arab skin and cosmetics in the US are in a constant battle.
As a POC especially with dark skin, Juvia's eyeshadows works for me. Yes they are hella pigmented, but they show up on my eyes, so I love that they have a crazy amount of pigment. Not many brands have that much pigment to show up on my skin color.
I wish she had addressed more the fact that the palettes were made for tones a lot deeper than hers (esp when there’s a million palettes for lighter tones)
Kohl is actually meant to be protective to the eyes and has been used throughout the Middle East and North Africa for centuries. I think the problem is badly made “kohl pencils”
yeah I dont think Hannah thought this video through tbh cause Kohl and Juvias place are usually made for POC either in the ME or NA because of the sun and how the hype of Kohl came to the US and not many people understood the origins.
Juvia’s place palettes are awesome for PoC because most brands (sometimes brown eyeshadows, but especially colorful eyeshadows ) don’t show up on dark skin and juvia’s filled that gap in the market so well and made colorful eyeshadow accessible to the brown girl
@@PurposefulPursuits I totally agree. I felt like once they got mainstream hype the kinda forgot about what made them great for many poc women. But that's my opinion.
I definitely agree with that. And honestly this goes for most palettes with a lot of pigmentation. I don’t really care if they’re “hard to work with it”, I’m just thankful they show up on my face
As others have mentioned, the highly pigmented eyeshadows from a black-owned brand are meant to be brown skin friendly. Juvia's Place have some of the only blue and green shades I can trust to be true to color on my skin. However, I 100% agree that some of their palettes have really confusing color stories. Luckily, they now have the minis, which make things a lot easier.
I don't mind them either, and I don't know how common this is, but a channel I was watching the other day somehow made their sponsorship segments unskippable, like the bar turns yellow like an ad... When you're already using ads, and your sponsorships are 5min long in a 15 minute video, that's lame
I don't mind adds, but I despise the same as you. Or when creators put 5 ads after another in the beginning, funny enough that was one of my researches behind why companies do that for my masters 😂😂😂😂😂
Kohl liner is something traditional in India, when a baby is born most times parents use kohl liner to make traditional markings to protect them from Nazar or the evil eye. Most Indian women prefer kohl liner too. if you know the correct way to apply it, it doesnt hurt.
I actually cut this part from the video for time but I told a story about how the literal only time I ever loved kohl liner was when I lived in Nepal and my host family applied it for me. It’s truly stunning. I think i more have a gripe with ones that are made poorly and also being able to apply it myself lol thank you for providing this perspective ♥️
In regards to the “no makeup” makeup, it’s also annoying to see brands and social media try to sell full coverage makeup as “natural looking” like okay yea you look flawless with no lines or anything under those filters and beauty lights but it’s not going to translate like that in real life. There’s nothing wrong with wearing a ton of makeup, but it shouldn’t be marketed as “natural” or “flawless” because it will set so many people up for disappointment when that’s not what you will look like when you actually wear the product.
It took me way to long to realize this. There is no “natural” full coverage. At least for me and my skin because I have texture and when my texture is all blanked out as one color it almost makes it even more obvious and definitely noticeable that I have makeup on. Wish I learned this earlier 😞 *cough cough* highschool *cough*
Yes. I get that what they're trying to say is that full coverage doesn't have to look heavy and like you have 3 inches of make up on, but it's still not "natural" lol. Even if you're blessed with an incredibly clear and even complexion, skin is not naturally flawless and all the exact same pantone shade.
What I hate is adverts for let’s say a concealer, and then it’s a before and after and the before is no makeup at all and the after is a full face???? Like that doesn’t help me at all you could be wearing este Lauder double wear I cannot see the concealer at all
Juvia’s place palettes are pretty amazing especially for people of color with very rich tones. A lot of eyeshadows don’t show up on dark skin well. Before Nikki it was really Alyssa Ashley and a lot of smaller black creators who brought light to juvia’s place. The brand made rounds in the black beauty community first and was gaining popularity quick cause we were so excited to have vibrant colors show up on our skin. It was truly nice not having to dip into a shadow 15 times just to get the color to show up. In short I wouldn’t say it’s not for the “average consumer” cause POC def make up a large part of the beauty market but I will say it’s definitely been formulated for more diverse tones therefore different techniques will need to be used to adjust for your specific shade vs other shadows that may require little to no work.
I totes agree. My qualm was I felt like their color stories weren't for the average consumer. The OG pallets anyway. I do like the monochromatic ones they did recently
If I'm being honest I get so annoyed when white influencers say things like"oh I don't like this eyeshadow or blush because it's tooo pigmented" without thinking that maybe the product they're using is formulated with dark skin tones in mind
@@epif1 I work in fashion so I totally get an understand that as I have worked with designers from many African cultures. The patterns and colors are beautiful! However, translated into an eye shadow pallet, the bold primary colors can't make it hard for the everyday person to make a cohesive look especially if they're not that great with color stories. I bought all of the pallets because I think the colors stories are beautiful. As a black woman, I love how pigmented the pallets were but at the same time. there was one pallet in particular that was all most Al bright primary/secondary colors and I couldn't make a look without digging into another pallet or two which isn't my personal preference You can both understand and appreciate the cultural inspiration for these pallets and at the same time acknowledge that some of the color story still may not be harder for the everyday consumer to use .❤❤❤
OMG! She finally got my wedding gift! I’ve been checking the tracking info weekly and was worried I messed up the shipping info. (It’s not my brand, but I love their candles and thought you would too. I asked them to deliver them to you directly. Please support small businesses)
Kohl was actually a part of middle eastern culture. Sand dwellers wore it on their water line to reduce the glare from the sun. It may have been more than just Arabs who wore Kohl but I'm not sure who else.
According to some sources vikings wore it as well, probably because it made them look intimidating what I understand from the research, but there were a lot of Arabic travelers and merchants in Europe in that time already so I wouldn't be surprised if vikings copied that or bought the products from them. I think the ancient Greeks also wore it but im not sure. And the Egyptians apparently also wore it to cure a multitude of eye infections with a tiny bit of lead in it. (I had to do a lot of research into historical makeup in the past months for school and a lot of people used some kinda black stuff on their eyes or lashes and brows, but these three were the most like Kohl what I understand)
honestly same. it worked for me in my early 20s but now at 26 where I'm starting to see crows feet it kind of just makes my eyes look droopy, it also hides my eyeshadow. I kind of just do like a little baby flick now.
i agree !! i’ve tried eyeliner a couple times & personally i do not like how it looks on my eye shape so i just never do it. it’s beautiful on other eyes just not on mine
Tbh I only like winged liner on my eyes if I do the wings HUGE. I'm talking way bigger than I see anyone on YT do them lol. Taking up my whole lid space because my lids are hooded and wrinkly as hell. May as well cover it all in black liner
I just can't imagine my makeup collection without a black kajal. It has massive cultural significance in my country. My mother applies kohl to her waterline every single day and it looks so pretty.
“Do you know your parents are watching me” yes they do and My mother and I both bought your Midas cosmetics collection because we watch your videos like TV.
Being a colourful makeup lover, black is so usefull to add depth to looks. Really dark deep colourful shadows are so hard to find... Also, using it for eyeliner is so much easier than liquid eyeliner.
one thing with the kohl eyeliner is that it can be a cultural practice/norm for a lottttt of people. But the sharp tip one isn’t exactly what traditional kohl is (in my experience)
Yeah idt she was talking about wearing kajal water line in general, I think she was referring to using that old wooden pencil style of kohl that people used before gel pencil liners were popular. Isn’t traditional kohl more like surma, where you have the applicator and a bottle?
The thing is that almost every time i use to use kohl or kajal it wasnt in a pencil form. Tbh it annoys me that big western makeup companies wanted to go the cheaper way in mass producing kohl eyeliners.
The fluffy brows trend generally reminds me of the “messy bun” trend and the “no makeup makeup” trend. They take more effort to make it look like you put in no effort. I still do messier buns to this day, but now they are genuinely messy looking without me trying lol😂
I find the situation with the "soap brows" interesting. The technique of using soap to hold brows in place has been around for decades and pre-dates commercial brow gels. Most of these tictok life hacks are just old techniques that are rehashed for content.
Yeah, it's an old theatrical technique but the funniest thing is how easy it is to prey on peoples' wallets with this trend. I style my brows with soap, but I bought a whole bar of glycerin soap and cut off a small piece. The cost was miniscule. Meanwhile the same glycerin soap, maybe with some glitter thrown in and put in a small tin is like 10, 20 times more expensive. It's wild!!!
The thing with practicing winged liner is that you have to do it when there are no stakes. You have to play with it when you can take it off with no pressure of looking bad or being late for an event.
My theory: people who can nail winged eyeliner are also good artists so they can somewhat naturally just do the flick and are like “huh yeah, practice?”
I’m actually proud to say I’m pretty good at winged liner! But I’m also an artist who’s favorite thing in the world is line art and inking, it’s my passion (and my job lmao) so I do it everyday. So your theory might not be incorrect
Yeah, I do feel that. I wouldn't say I'm good at it, but considering how rarely I actually apply makeup I'm halfway decent (though having deepset/semi-hooded and downturned eyes makes it a real challenge). I cheat by using a teeny tiny ultra-precise pointy liner brush to lightly draw the outline of the wing in powder eyeshadow first, then just fill that in.
As an artist, I would like to proudly agree with this 😂 it takes me less than a minute to do my eyeliner and it’s perfect everytime…it’s the only flex I got 😂
i was a goth in the mid 2000's and i stand by that /that/ is the way to wear black eyeshadow and kohl liner. don't be afraid of black eyeshadow, make it be afraid of you
I used to wear only black and white eyeshadows during that time. A guy once asked for my phone number on the train and during our first date he said he thought I was using drugs :D I changed my make up after that :D
On very pale people it can look good, but it is a lot of work for us to work. On deeper skin tones it almost looks natural and it looks stunning with so little work. The difference in makeup on different skin tones is absolutely facenating
Agree, my mom used to use it a lot when she was younger, there weren’t many options in communist Eastern Europe back then but they were easier to get a hold of.
@@mimikiwinize1994 that’s interesting! i also find that on top of it being cultural, women who wear head/face coverings for religious purposes (or otherwise) in my country often use very dramatic eyeliner as a form of self expression, since their eyes are sometimes their only feature showing.
I’ve traveled all over India and Southeast Asia and the use of kohl or black eyeliner in waterline is used by all the women and some men. It’s very cultural and looks stunning.
Everyone did this in middle school where I grew up in the US. I don’t see people do it much anymore. It looks ok on some people. Made my eyes look smaller
I'm half Bangladeshi & I can vouch lol. I do quite Western makeup normally but the moment I line my waterline I feel like I look exactly like my aunties 😅 it's a good thing bc they're all beautiful
I appreciate Juvia's place because it's pigmented enough to ACTUALLY show up on us brown skin folks. BUT, I also decluttered all of mine because their color stories just weren't cohesive enough to be easily used. The only one that really did was the gold pallet, but really, you could only get three truly different looks out of
I get where you’re coming from sweetie, but if you have the opportunity to do sponsors plz do them. It’s 60 seconds of my life in exchange for hours of content that I look forward to during long plane rides, while I’m cooking, distracting me from my mental issues, or doing my daily Disney 500 piece puzzle lmao.
Ok I hate when people are like “I don’t wear foundation” or “no foundation tutorial” but then they CAKE on concealer everywhere. And their concealer looks even heavier on the skin. It’s basically a full coverage look then, but they’re making it seem “natural” I’d say, use a bb cream/light coverage foundation first, then put concealer on top, so you’re using less product and a more natural look
@@losermillie Me getting into makeup for the first time at 24 years old and regretting not getting started sooner!😅 I don't think my parents would have let me wear makeup anyways.
Unpopular opinion: I HATE when people draw the lipstick over the heart of the lips. I love making the two top points of my lips distinct with my lipstick, I don't understand why people just draw a straight line between the two
"Natural" looking contour really only exists when you already have those features & you slightly accentuate them. I always wear minimal makeup, and ill contour my cheekbones slightly but I already have high & defined cheekbones. And the few times I tried to contour my nose I looked crazy bc the rest of my makeup is too minimal for that LOL
Sorry, I had to stop the video, because your picture of how your soap brows looked like was sooooo funny, I spilled my coke all over the place and had to clean it up real quick. Girl, you're pure gold! I so can relate to everything you told. I have so few hairs in my brows, that soap brows just look hilarious. Thanks for explaining, why I suck with pigmented eye shadow.... I share all of your opinions.
Q. I hate the current brow trend too. I also hate how ppl call them "fluffy" when they're actually plastered flat against the face. Gabriel Iglesias and Baby kittens are fluffy. There's nothing fluffy about the brows I'm seeing on Instagram. Esp laminated ones.
Hannah, have you considered an eye shadow wing with a short stiff thin angle brush? I think it’s a lot easier and a lot more forgiving than true liner and is a great way to train your hand!
Actually this might genuinely help me . . . I struggle WAY too much with liner at the moment - currently I'm too scared to explore a lot of cosplays outside of the one I have right now because I base my cosplays off of how I draw the character, and I can only pull off that said one I have right now because I draw him with ve eh ling eyelashes. I *wanna* explore into more, especially since I found two that are more friendly with my dace shape, but I was struggling to find a way to learn to do shorter liner . . . What I'm trying to say is thank you for the tip ! And sorry for the ramble, I tend to go off for a while, aha-
@@CoffinsApricity no problem! Start with a lighter color! If you’re not confident to flick it out at first, you can use the brush to kind of stamp it on at the angle you like, then you have a guide for your flick! :) I was hopeless at wings last years, and now I do then with almost every look, and I can even do them with both hands! You got this!
Hey! Tip on winged liner: I have hooded eyes and a neurological disease that causes my hands to shake badly and I never did winged eyeliner because of it until I found that they actually make stamps to make the end of the wing sharp and even on both sides!! I think it’s called The Flick Stick but there are probably other brands that make stamps like that as well. Hope this helps!!
Juvias Place used to have phenomenal shimmers. I liked the mattes too. The color stories confused me. The color stories look bomb on deeper skin tones which is why the shadows were so pigmented... they were designed for deeper skin tones. I tried the palettes more recently with "cohesive" color stories and I don't think they're as good.
Honestly, I’ve not been subscribing to your channel for too long but I appreciate your honest content and how well spoken and eloquently you speak on every video I’ve now binged
Didn’t know I had hooded eyes until this year. I thought I just couldn’t do winged liner! Apparently every tutorial I watched they just didn’t have my eye shape lol. Now I can do it perfectly.
OMG! Me too. I didn't know I had double hooded eyes until I watched a beautiful tutorial on how to apply eye makeup for hooded eyes accidentally. My liner and eyeshadow are so much better now.❤
Ooh you should get a flick stick! They are like eyeliner stamps! They are my secret for how I get my winged eyeliner to look amazing every time. Not an ad lol I promise I just really love the product and the formula is actually really good too! You neeeeeeed to try it Hannah I stg it will change your life.
Talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, shit on it, vomit on it, eat it, give birth to it
This is perfect timing as I am heading to bed, thank you! Please don't ever stop the yass or pass intro with the high pitch voice, it cracks me up every time. P. S. You are a bronzed and glowy icon right now, I think we need an updated bronzer ranking.
I feel you on this on SOOO many levels. I was notorious for owning the ABH cream contour kit and would do the whole Kim K full face of war paint damn near daily 🤦🏻♀️ and then use powder contour to set it. Did I look bomb in pictures? Yes. Did I spend an obscene amount of time to make it look “natural” when it obviously never would? Yes. Am I moderately ashamed of the amount of time wasted? Absolutely.
Hahahah Im so the opposite. I love Juvia's place as a BIPOC person(though I do agree that sometimes I didnt feel their earlier colour stories, I like the more concise ones now). Juvias Place and Coloured Raine made me realize how...Bipoc unfriendly alot of makeup was truly. Like honestly...I don't like Modern Renaissance... it was muted compared to Queen of Hearts by Coloured Raine.
As someone who was a bit traumatized by the size of her brows as a child, I love the soap brow trend and the general embracing of big brows. That said, I just use a clear gel to tame my brows and give them a slight soap brow shape without going too crazy. In general I just love the brow diversity these days
I have known at least two people who overplucked their brows to the point they never fully grew back out....this was back in the day where they had to be plucked super thin. I think the attitude now is much more positive.
I’ve been buying juvias place since before Nikki tutorials hype them up. The owner created the brand for women of color because we have problems with colors NOT showing up on our skin. A lot of stuff that work for Non POC don’t work for us. It won’t show up on us or it will just look ashy asf on us. So with that being said I absolutely love love love juvias place.
I accepted a long time ago that winged eyeliner doesn't work on me. XD I have two different kinds of eyelids/eye sockets. It's just a mess, and one eye always looks janky.
I have the same problem and I found that instead of matching the wings to one another you have to match... the eyes....? Like make your eyes look the same through different winged liners. But again, I feel like it takes years of practice and not everyone wants to do that ahah
Even in the 90's, I hated the super thin brow. I never did it because mine are fluffy and it took hours to get them thin. Brow trends seem not worth it, imo
I didn't like the Modern Renaissance and decluttered it. The shimmers were not as good as the later ones Soft Glam, Sultry and Jacky Aina, which to me are the best ABH palettes
Also: Middle eastern and Far East and Indian cultures use Kohl (pronunciation is cool). We even put it in baby’s eyes to protect from the evil eye. It comes in a paste that’s my favorite way to use it, grey black or blue black, love it! Thank you for listening!
When she said “who hurt you?” I had a flashback to my 14 yr old self who used those pencils all around my eyes including water line 😂 and yes I was such an emo kid. But now I use gel eyeliners
In the 80’s not only was it a pencil but you had to burn it with a lighter so it would go on. And yes it was like hot molten lava surrounded by scratchy wood particles on the water line. 😂😂
colored eyeliner on the lower lash line is good actually but all that really matters is you feel confident in yourself. also the kim possible lip is great and i want to try it some time
Having grown up in the 90s with extremely thick "burt" eyebrows I can't get on board with the big fluffy brows trend. Overplucked is still my aesthetic!
Juvia's Place is for dark skin tones that require actual pigment. I love the palettes for strong looks but it wasn't designed for light skin people. And that's good- not enough products are designed for dark skin tones.
Hi Hannah 💗🌸 Juvia's Place is so pigmented because it was made with POC in mind. Many of us with brown skin can't use many pallettes because they are not pigmented enough and just don't show up on our skin. I never have that problem with Juvia's pallettes and I'm super thankful that they have catered to deeper skin tones since we are routinely overlooked 💗
I need to see a video of all unpopular opinions demonstrated on you. I’d love to see the soap brows. I tried it once and omg I looked like a mad scientist.
i don't understand the soap brows either and i am 100% on the fluffy brow trend... brow gel works for me perfectly and keeping my brows bushy saves me so much time in my makeup routine! i don't even fill them up anymore, just brush up with gel and go
i thought that my kohl eyeliner was just mediocre but finding out that it's possible for the wood to chip off and get into the waterline???? mine is immaculate i love it, she does her job perfectly
I used to feel EXACTLY the same about winged eyeliner, I love it now, I practiced by picking days I wasn’t going anywhere and I’d do it, take it off, and do it again, a few times in the day, I got pretty good after a few days!
I hate soap brows. It’s easier to get the effect with regular clear brow gel or mascara but it’s not always flattering on me unless i fill them in very good. I love red lipstick not matter when it’s trendy or not. i don’t consider it out of trend but rather classy. i used to put it on as a little girl and it reminds me of selena
Red lipstick is lovely, I have olive undertones and it’s so flattering. Could you recommend one? I have one from the Mac cream line but it’s so underperforming in my opinion, it smudges so much and is not lasting at all.
I used to hate winged eyeliner till I realized that my eyeshape requires me to apply it way differently than a lot of tutorials. Like my eyelid folds while my eyes are open(if that makes sense) so I legit have to have my eye open the whole time I apply, barely place a line on my lid and wing it more out than up.
It sounds like you have hooded eyes! There are lots of tutorials online specifically with eyeliner techniques for hooded eyes, and you’re right that you need to keep your eye open while doing it :]
I legit love when you say “hey hello how are you” lol ur personality right away just beams. Ur one of my favs I could actually picture being friends lol no joke
I use tape for my winged liner! It makes it soooo easy to get a clean line. Just make sure you dab the tab off on your hand first so it’s not too sticky and doesn’t pull at your eye
Modern Renaissance is such an apt name for that palette because it truly was a renaissance for eyeshadow. It represented this really wonderful time in makeup where holistic creativity was at its peak. ABH used to be the absolute standard for creating pallets that were immaculately curated and beautifully themed without being tacky. Everything felt purposeful and special, despite the colors not being anything revolutionary. It was more so that they were able to create a palette where EVERY color belonged and could interact with every other color. Damn…..I miss that time in makeup so much. I can’t think of any company that still captivates in that way.
Tried the soap bar trend thanks to Desi Perkins. I almost booked an eye dr. appointment to find out why my eyes were bloodshot, red, and irritated. It dawned on me it was the soap I was using on my eyebrows. I used the Le labo bar soap I got from a Fairmont Hotel. Highly recommend a fragrance free soap. The ABH brow freeze provides the same benefits without the debris of soap getting into your eyes.
I just found your channel a few days ago and I am so obsessed. I love your takes. You are the only mature channel that talks about these drama situations.
this is a compliment in disguise as criticism - i missed your little intro music today lol!! i usually play it once or twice as it reminds me of being at a makeup counter in the 90s with my grandmother. so jazzy. so smooth. a bop.
They say that winged liner takes practice but I've been able to do winged liner since I started doing makeup as long as I'm not trying too hard, the second I start to think about it too much is when I mess it up. I also have small and downturned eyes so I feel like I have to do winged liner every day so I don't look depressed.
The best matte black eyeshadow I’ve ever found is from…a Juvias Place palette! The Warrior II! I’m a long-time black eyeshadow wearer and it’s so lovely to use and blend 🥰
I usually find that moisturising primers are just moisturisers with some extra silicones in for that smoooooooth velvety like finish! But other than the sometimes uniques benefits that some moisturisers boast…..other than that…there’s not much difference!! 😅
He has spoken 👏🙏💜
Yes true!! Looking at ingredients, the silicones are just there, but the REST are emollients. So...👀
You're so sweet so watch and comment!
Thank you for a Welsh update!
NO, you can NOT tell her. 😒😒
No shade to Hannah but her saying that the Juvia's Place eyeshadow were too pigmented made me pick them up... need that for colours to show up on my deep skin

Kohl is actually meant to be protective to the eyes and has been used throughout the Middle East and North Africa for centuries. I think the problem is badly made “kohl pencils”
yeah I dont think Hannah thought this video through tbh cause Kohl and Juvias place are usually made for POC either in the ME or NA because of the sun and how the hype of Kohl came to the US and not many people understood the origins.
We also use kohl in South Asia! It’s often referred to as kajal in south Asian countries :)
oop am I the only one who thought it was “coal pencil?!”
Right Kohl is such a cultural thing for us and i think it looks really beautiful
Juvia’s place palettes are awesome for PoC because most brands (sometimes brown eyeshadows, but especially colorful eyeshadows ) don’t show up on dark skin and juvia’s filled that gap in the market so well and made colorful eyeshadow accessible to the brown girl
I agree. I’m so appreciative to have shadows that show up vibrant on my medium deep skin tone. I love their palettes
@@PurposefulPursuits I totally agree. I felt like once they got mainstream hype the kinda forgot about what made them great for many poc women. But that's my opinion.
I definitely agree with that. And honestly this goes for most palettes with a lot of pigmentation. I don’t really care if they’re “hard to work with it”, I’m just thankful they show up on my face
Anyone ever watch Kev on Stage? He has this saying “IT’S FOR BLACK PEOPLE ANYWAY!!!” I felt like yelling that when she said it’s way too pigmented. 😂😂
@@pjscurls3037 yeah I Would say that but, once they got huge mainstream gurus to promote them, they started trying to work for everyone.

I think more adds are fine from bipoc people because I know that they already get paid less than white creators. 🤷🏾♀️

Kohl liner is something traditional in India, when a baby is born most times parents use kohl liner to make traditional markings to protect them from Nazar or the evil eye. Most Indian women prefer kohl liner too. if you know the correct way to apply it, it doesnt hurt.
Came here to comment this! 🤩🥰👍🏼
Middle easter cultures use it too, I prefer the paste version for my waterline.
I actually cut this part from the video for time but I told a story about how the literal only time I ever loved kohl liner was when I lived in Nepal and my host family applied it for me. It’s truly stunning. I think i more have a gripe with ones that are made poorly and also being able to apply it myself lol thank you for providing this perspective ♥️
do you have a favorite kohl liner from western beauty brands? I have yet to find a half way decent one that doesn’t fade or run:/
In regards to the “no makeup” makeup, it’s also annoying to see brands and social media try to sell full coverage makeup as “natural looking” like okay yea you look flawless with no lines or anything under those filters and beauty lights but it’s not going to translate like that in real life. There’s nothing wrong with wearing a ton of makeup, but it shouldn’t be marketed as “natural” or “flawless” because it will set so many people up for disappointment when that’s not what you will look like when you actually wear the product.
It took me way to long to realize this. There is no “natural” full coverage. At least for me and my skin because I have texture and when my texture is all blanked out as one color it almost makes it even more obvious and definitely noticeable that I have makeup on. Wish I learned this earlier 😞 *cough cough* highschool *cough*
Yes. I get that what they're trying to say is that full coverage doesn't have to look heavy and like you have 3 inches of make up on, but it's still not "natural" lol. Even if you're blessed with an incredibly clear and even complexion, skin is not naturally flawless and all the exact same pantone shade.
What I hate is adverts for let’s say a concealer, and then it’s a before and after and the before is no makeup at all and the after is a full face???? Like that doesn’t help me at all you could be wearing este Lauder double wear I cannot see the concealer at all
Juvia’s place palettes are pretty amazing especially for people of color with very rich tones. A lot of eyeshadows don’t show up on dark skin well. Before Nikki it was really Alyssa Ashley and a lot of smaller black creators who brought light to juvia’s place. The brand made rounds in the black beauty community first and was gaining popularity quick cause we were so excited to have vibrant colors show up on our skin. It was truly nice not having to dip into a shadow 15 times just to get the color to show up. In short I wouldn’t say it’s not for the “average consumer” cause POC def make up a large part of the beauty market but I will say it’s definitely been formulated for more diverse tones therefore different techniques will need to be used to adjust for your specific shade vs other shadows that may require little to no work.
I totes agree. My qualm was I felt like their color stories weren't for the average consumer. The OG pallets anyway. I do like the monochromatic ones they did recently
and the color stories are meant to be derived from the owner's Nigerian culture. Which views color differently.
If I'm being honest I get so annoyed when white influencers say things like"oh I don't like this eyeshadow or blush because it's tooo pigmented" without thinking that maybe the product they're using is formulated with dark skin tones in mind
@@epif1 I work in fashion so I totally get an understand that as I have worked with designers from many African cultures. The patterns and colors are beautiful! However, translated into an eye shadow pallet, the bold primary colors can't make it hard for the everyday person to make a cohesive look especially if they're not that great with color stories.
I bought all of the pallets because I think the colors stories are beautiful.
As a black woman, I love how pigmented the pallets were but at the same time. there was one pallet in particular that was all most Al bright primary/secondary colors and I couldn't make a look without digging into another pallet or two which isn't my personal preference
You can both understand and appreciate the cultural inspiration for these pallets and at the same time acknowledge that some of the color story still may not be harder for the everyday consumer to use .❤❤❤
OMG! She finally got my wedding gift! I’ve been checking the tracking info weekly and was worried I messed up the shipping info.

Kohl was actually a part of middle eastern culture. Sand dwellers wore it on their water line to reduce the glare from the sun. It may have been more than just Arabs who wore Kohl but I'm not sure who else.
According to some sources vikings wore it as well, probably because it made them look intimidating what I understand from the research, but there were a lot of Arabic travelers and merchants in Europe in that time already so I wouldn't be surprised if vikings copied that or bought the products from them. I think the ancient Greeks also wore it but im not sure. And the Egyptians apparently also wore it to cure a multitude of eye infections with a tiny bit of lead in it. (I had to do a lot of research into historical makeup in the past months for school and a lot of people used some kinda black stuff on their eyes or lashes and brows, but these three were the most like Kohl what I understand)
We still wear Kohl and it’s still apart of our culture
@@mbang3395 I know, I'm sorry if I downplayed that accidentally, that was not on purpose. It looks stunning on you all
@@orangeleprachaun4723 oh you didn’t at all I’m just saying it’s still prominent in Arab cultures

I don’t think wing eyeliner fits everyone eyelid/eye socket shape… at least that’s what I tell myself 😭
No I definitely get that. If you're eyes are really wrinkley on the sides the eyeliner might just show them off more so it's up to the person.
I feel that! I have tiny eyelids and can’t make winged eyeliner work for me!
honestly same. it worked for me in my early 20s but now at 26 where I'm starting to see crows feet it kind of just makes my eyes look droopy, it also hides my eyeshadow. I kind of just do like a little baby flick now.
i agree !! i’ve tried eyeliner a couple times & personally i do not like how it looks on my eye shape so i just never do it. it’s beautiful on other eyes just not on mine
Tbh I only like winged liner on my eyes if I do the wings HUGE. I'm talking way bigger than I see anyone on YT do them lol. Taking up my whole lid space because my lids are hooded and wrinkly as hell. May as well cover it all in black liner
I just can't imagine my makeup collection without a black kajal. It has massive cultural significance in my country. My mother applies kohl to her waterline every single day and it looks so pretty.
“Do you know your parents are watching me” yes they do and My mother and I both bought your Midas cosmetics collection because we watch your videos like TV.
I love that so much 🥰💓
@@smokey_glow thank you, your response has just made Mother’s Day. Have a good day and a good night
The fact that your mother also bought the collection is so cute lol
Being a colourful makeup lover, black is so usefull to add depth to looks. Really dark deep colourful shadows are so hard to find... Also, using it for eyeliner is so much easier than liquid eyeliner.
Came to comment the same thing 😂
one thing with the kohl eyeliner is that it can be a cultural practice/norm for a lottttt of people. But the sharp tip one isn’t exactly what traditional kohl is (in my experience)
yep! its a cultural practice where i livr
yeah people only do kajal or kohl where I live also winged eyeliner is the first makeup technique people learn here sjdjf
Yeah idt she was talking about wearing kajal water line in general, I think she was referring to using that old wooden pencil style of kohl that people used before gel pencil liners were popular. Isn’t traditional kohl more like surma, where you have the applicator and a bottle?
@@atqiyasyed1549 maybe but I'm talking in a modern sense whatever people around me use are like pencils only
The thing is that almost every time i use to use kohl or kajal it wasnt in a pencil form. Tbh it annoys me that big western makeup companies wanted to go the cheaper way in mass producing kohl eyeliners.
The fluffy brows trend generally reminds me of the “messy bun” trend and the “no makeup makeup” trend. They take more effort to make it look like you put in no effort. I still do messier buns to this day, but now they are genuinely messy looking without me trying lol😂
I find the situation with the "soap brows" interesting. The technique of using soap to hold brows in place has been around for decades and pre-dates commercial brow gels. Most of these tictok life hacks are just old techniques that are rehashed for content.
YESSS! im in school to be an MUA and in my history class we learned about it and im like "ohh, nothing is original"
Yeah, it's an old theatrical technique but the funniest thing is how easy it is to prey on peoples' wallets with this trend. I style my brows with soap, but I bought a whole bar of glycerin soap and cut off a small piece. The cost was miniscule. Meanwhile the same glycerin soap, maybe with some glitter thrown in and put in a small tin is like 10, 20 times more expensive. It's wild!!!
@@Yazzyu3 I’m not surprised but I’m intrigued!!!! makeup history is SO interesting.
Honestly... there's nothing new under the sun. It's all just repackaging the same old.
@@owcopies123 exactly! *stares incredulously at Colourpops new brow pomade*
The thing with practicing winged liner is that you have to do it when there are no stakes. You have to play with it when you can take it off with no pressure of looking bad or being late for an event.
My theory: people who can nail winged eyeliner are also good artists so they can somewhat naturally just do the flick and are like “huh yeah, practice?”
I’m actually proud to say I’m pretty good at winged liner! But I’m also an artist who’s favorite thing in the world is line art and inking, it’s my passion (and my job lmao) so I do it everyday. So your theory might not be incorrect
Yeah, I do feel that. I wouldn't say I'm good at it, but considering how rarely I actually apply makeup I'm halfway decent (though having deepset/semi-hooded and downturned eyes makes it a real challenge). I cheat by using a teeny tiny ultra-precise pointy liner brush to lightly draw the outline of the wing in powder eyeshadow first, then just fill that in.
As an artist, I would like to proudly agree with this 😂 it takes me less than a minute to do my eyeliner and it’s perfect everytime…it’s the only flex I got 😂
I don't want to say this isn't true, but I'm not sure lol. I draw a lot and yeah it's never really been a struggle for me to do my eyeliner.
ive been doing winged liner for 4-5 years and haven't really done art since I was a kid so maybe I'm harbouring a secret talent lol
i was a goth in the mid 2000's and i stand by that /that/ is the way to wear black eyeshadow and kohl liner. don't be afraid of black eyeshadow, make it be afraid of you
I used to wear only black and white eyeshadows during that time. A guy once asked for my phone number on the train and during our first date he said he thought I was using drugs :D I changed my make up after that :D
kohl eyeliner in the waterline is a traditional middle eastern thing. i do it because it’s part of my culture.
I love eyeliner in the waterline. It looks amazing on many people.
On very pale people it can look good, but it is a lot of work for us to work. On deeper skin tones it almost looks natural and it looks stunning with so little work. The difference in makeup on different skin tones is absolutely facenating
Agree, my mom used to use it a lot when she was younger, there weren’t many options in communist Eastern Europe back then but they were easier to get a hold of.
@@mimikiwinize1994 that’s interesting! i also find that on top of it being cultural, women who wear head/face coverings for religious purposes (or otherwise) in my country often use very dramatic eyeliner as a form of self expression, since their eyes are sometimes their only feature showing.
It also used to be part of the emo/scene culture around 2008, we all did it and some still do :D

I’ve traveled all over India and Southeast Asia and the use of kohl or black eyeliner in waterline is used by all the women and some men. It’s very cultural and looks stunning.
I used to wear kohl eyeliner in my water line as a teen 😂 I still would if I had a decent one!
Everyone did this in middle school where I grew up in the US. I don’t see people do it much anymore. It looks ok on some people. Made my eyes look smaller
Also Hannah wasn’t saying don’t put it in your waterline she just said use gel cause it’s more comfortable haha
I'm half Bangladeshi & I can vouch lol. I do quite Western makeup normally but the moment I line my waterline I feel like I look exactly like my aunties 😅 it's a good thing bc they're all beautiful
I only learned how to do it a year or so ago and I love how it looks on me. But then I got told that I'm stuck in the 90s which is...fair. lol
I appreciate Juvia's place because it's pigmented enough to ACTUALLY show up on us brown skin folks. BUT, I also decluttered all of mine because their color stories just weren't cohesive enough to be easily used. The only one that really did was the gold pallet, but really, you could only get three truly different looks out of

Ok I hate when people are like “I don’t wear foundation” or “no foundation tutorial” but then they CAKE on concealer everywhere. And their concealer looks even heavier on the skin. It’s basically a full coverage look then, but they’re making it seem “natural”
I’d say, use a bb cream/light coverage foundation first, then put concealer on top, so you’re using less product and a more natural look
"I don't wear foundation... I just used my whole tube of concealer"
I hated winged liner until I started doing it with dark eyeshadow a couple months ago. Eyeshadow is sooooo much easier to manipulate.
YES i started doing this a while ago too, it's so much more forgiving than liquid liner and looks so nice and soft
And that’s what the black eyeshadow is from
Same! And I stopped trying to do an upturned wing because it doesn’t fit my downturned hooded eyes.

Unpopular opinion: I HATE when people draw the lipstick over the heart of the lips. I love making the two top points of my lips distinct with my lipstick, I don't understand why people just draw a straight line between the two

"Natural" looking contour really only exists when you already have those features & you slightly accentuate them. I always wear minimal makeup, and ill contour my cheekbones slightly but I already have high & defined cheekbones. And the few times I tried to contour my nose I looked crazy bc the rest of my makeup is too minimal for that LOL

Sorry, I had to stop the video, because your picture of how your soap brows looked like was sooooo funny, I spilled my coke all over the place and had to clean it up real quick. Girl, you're pure gold! I so can relate to everything you told. I have so few hairs in my brows, that soap brows just look hilarious. Thanks for explaining, why I suck with pigmented eye shadow.... I share all of your opinions.

Q. I hate the current brow trend too.
I also hate how ppl call them "fluffy" when they're actually plastered flat against the face. Gabriel Iglesias and Baby kittens are fluffy. There's nothing fluffy about the brows I'm seeing on Instagram. Esp laminated ones.
I hate soap brows, combed up brows. Makes ladies look like Sasquatch :D
Hannah, have you considered an eye shadow wing with a short stiff thin angle brush? I think it’s a lot easier and a lot more forgiving than true liner and is a great way to train your hand!
Omg! I used to do that when I was much younger and just figuring out eye makeup, I still do that sometimes if I’m going for a more subtle look.
Actually this might genuinely help me . . . I struggle WAY too much with liner at the moment - currently I'm too scared to explore a lot of cosplays outside of the one I have right now because I base my cosplays off of how I draw the character, and I can only pull off that said one I have right now because I draw him with ve eh ling eyelashes. I *wanna* explore into more, especially since I found two that are more friendly with my dace shape, but I was struggling to find a way to learn to do shorter liner . . .
What I'm trying to say is thank you for the tip ! And sorry for the ramble, I tend to go off for a while, aha-
@@CoffinsApricity no problem! Start with a lighter color! If you’re not confident to flick it out at first, you can use the brush to kind of stamp it on at the angle you like, then you have a guide for your flick! :) I was hopeless at wings last years, and now I do then with almost every look, and I can even do them with both hands! You got this!
Hey! Tip on winged liner: I have hooded eyes and a neurological disease that causes my hands to shake badly and I never did winged eyeliner because of it until I found that they actually make stamps to make the end of the wing sharp and even on both sides!! I think it’s called The Flick Stick but there are probably other brands that make stamps like that as well. Hope this helps!!
“Black eyeshadow is the vanilla extract of a makeup routine” 💀
Juvias Place used to have phenomenal shimmers. I liked the mattes too. The color stories confused me. The color stories look bomb on deeper skin tones which is why the shadows were so pigmented... they were designed for deeper skin tones. I tried the palettes more recently with "cohesive" color stories and I don't think they're as good.

*sweats nervously as I laminate my eyebrows to give me the permanent fluffy brow effect*
Hahahah Im so the opposite. I love Juvia's place as a BIPOC person(though I do agree that sometimes I didnt feel their earlier colour stories, I like the more concise ones now). Juvias Place and Coloured Raine made me realize how...Bipoc unfriendly alot of makeup was truly. Like honestly...I don't like Modern Renaissance... it was muted compared to Queen of Hearts by Coloured Raine.
Agreed! Love my QoH ans Safari Raine, especially compared to ABH
I love coloured raine and juvia’s place as well. Coloured raine is a little bit more expensive tho
As someone who was a bit traumatized by the size of her brows as a child, I love the soap brow trend and the general embracing of big brows. That said, I just use a clear gel to tame my brows and give them a slight soap brow shape without going too crazy. In general I just love the brow diversity these days
I have known at least two people who overplucked their brows to the point they never fully grew back out....this was back in the day where they had to be plucked super thin. I think the attitude now is much more positive.
Yes I like that bigger brows are in because now I feel more validated in doing nothing to mine and barley keeping them groomed 😂
same! my favourite one is the easy breezy brow gel from covergirl
I’ve been buying juvias place since before Nikki tutorials hype them up. The owner created the brand for women of color because we have problems with colors NOT showing up on our skin. A lot of stuff that work for Non POC don’t work for us. It won’t show up on us or it will just look ashy asf on us. So with that being said I absolutely love love love juvias place.
I accepted a long time ago that winged eyeliner doesn't work on me. XD I have two different kinds of eyelids/eye sockets. It's just a mess, and one eye always looks janky.
same! one of my eyes is rounder and the other is more almond-shaped so winged liner emphasizes the unevenness and looks wonky
I have the same problem and I found that instead of matching the wings to one another you have to match... the eyes....? Like make your eyes look the same through different winged liners. But again, I feel like it takes years of practice and not everyone wants to do that ahah
I put either silver, golden or gunmetal nyx waterproof eyeliner in my water line... I have no idea if it's right or wrong... I just love it hahaha
i don’t think there has ever been an eyebrow trend that i liked lmao

Me too!!! Remember those feather brows everyone was doing a couple years ago? *Shudder*
@@vaintonic don't remind me 😭😭
Even in the 90's, I hated the super thin brow. I never did it because mine are fluffy and it took hours to get them thin. Brow trends seem not worth it, imo
I agree. They've all been bad. The 90s brow, the Insta brow, and now the soap brow 👎
I didn't like the Modern Renaissance and decluttered it. The shimmers were not as good as the later ones Soft Glam, Sultry and Jacky Aina, which to me are the best ABH palettes
Same. Magenta eyeshadow is just not for me.

Try doing winged eyeliner with your eyes open, looking straight ahead the whole time

When she said “who hurt you?” I had a flashback to my 14 yr old self who used those pencils all around my eyes including water line 😂 and yes I was such an emo kid. But now I use gel eyeliners

Having grown up in the 90s with extremely thick "burt" eyebrows I can't get on board with the big fluffy brows trend. Overplucked is still my aesthetic!
Never apologize for your sponsorships, I just appreciate your content.
Juvia's Place is for dark skin tones that require actual pigment. I love the palettes for strong looks but it wasn't designed for light skin people. And that's good- not enough products are designed for dark skin tones.
Hannah, you are a such a light. You help more than you’ll ever know! Even ‘simple’ makeup videos are so refreshing & comforting ❤️🔥
💓💓💓
Hi Hannah 💗🌸 Juvia's Place is so pigmented because it was made with POC in mind. Many of us with brown skin can't use many pallettes because they are not pigmented enough and just don't show up on our skin. I never have that problem with Juvia's pallettes and I'm super thankful that they have catered to deeper skin tones since we are routinely overlooked 💗
I need to see a video of all unpopular opinions demonstrated on you. I’d love to see the soap brows. I tried it once and omg I looked like a mad scientist.
i don't understand the soap brows either and i am 100% on the fluffy brow trend... brow gel works for me perfectly and keeping my brows bushy saves me so much time in my makeup routine! i don't even fill them up anymore, just brush up with gel and go
i thought that my kohl eyeliner was just mediocre but finding out that it's possible for the wood to chip off and get into the waterline???? mine is immaculate i love it, she does her job perfectly
I used to feel EXACTLY the same about winged eyeliner, I love it now, I practiced by picking days I wasn’t going anywhere and I’d do it, take it off, and do it again, a few times in the day, I got pretty good after a few days!
I hate soap brows. It’s easier to get the effect with regular clear brow gel or mascara but it’s not always flattering on me unless i fill them in very good. I love red lipstick not matter when it’s trendy or not. i don’t consider it out of trend but rather classy. i used to put it on as a little girl and it reminds me
of selena
I honestly think soap brows look ridiculous, I think a manicured brow looks best on most people tbh.
red lips never go out of style :)
Red lipstick is lovely, I have olive undertones and it’s so flattering. Could you recommend one? I have one from the Mac cream line but it’s so underperforming in my opinion, it smudges so much and is not lasting at all.
Hannah please never apologize for your sponsorships!! Your videos are something I look forward to with or without ads.
I used to hate winged eyeliner till I realized that my eyeshape requires me to apply it way differently than a lot of tutorials. Like my eyelid folds while my eyes are open(if that makes sense) so I legit have to have my eye open the whole time I apply, barely place a line on my lid and wing it more out than up.
It sounds like you have hooded eyes! There are lots of tutorials online specifically with eyeliner techniques for hooded eyes, and you’re right that you need to keep your eye open while doing it :]
I legit love when you say “hey hello how are you” lol ur personality right away just beams. Ur one of my favs I could actually picture being friends lol no joke
hannah i am so grateful for all this content !! hope you’re taking good care and resting too
I use tape for my winged liner! It makes it soooo easy to get a clean line. Just make sure you dab the tab off on your hand first so it’s not too sticky and doesn’t pull at your eye
Modern Renaissance is such an apt name for that palette because it truly was a renaissance for eyeshadow. It represented this really wonderful time in makeup where holistic creativity was at its peak. ABH used to be the absolute standard for creating pallets that were immaculately curated and beautifully themed without being tacky. Everything felt purposeful and special, despite the colors not being anything revolutionary. It was more so that they were able to create a palette where EVERY color belonged and could interact with every other color. Damn…..I miss that time in makeup so much. I can’t think of any company that still captivates in that way.
I agree. I love that palette.
For real. No make up release has been as exciting as the modern renaissance.
Tried the soap bar trend thanks to Desi Perkins. I almost booked an eye dr. appointment to find out why my eyes were bloodshot, red, and irritated. It dawned on me it was the soap I was using on my eyebrows. I used the Le labo bar soap I got from a Fairmont Hotel. Highly recommend a fragrance free soap. The ABH brow freeze provides the same benefits without the debris of soap getting into your eyes.

They say that winged liner takes practice but I've been able to do winged liner since I started doing makeup as long as I'm not trying too hard, the second I start to think about it too much is when I mess it up. I also have small and downturned eyes so I feel like I have to do winged liner every day so I don't look depressed.
I’ve been having immigration problems and it’s been very stressful. Your videos always come when I need them the most
Sending you lots of love and good vibes. I can’t imagine that stress and I’m happy I can help 💓💓💓
@@smokey_glow thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The best matte black eyeshadow I’ve ever found is from…a Juvias Place palette! The Warrior II! I’m a long-time black eyeshadow wearer and it’s so lovely to use and blend 🥰
