Drugstore Faves Q1: Over 50 

Yes! I’m transitioning from luxury to affordable makeup. I really appreciate your videos. They’re helping me move on comfortably. Thank you!

Yes!!!! Please keep doing brows on camera. Repetition works for me and brows are the HARDEST for me

I got the Max Factor 2000 calorie on Amazon. I love it too! You are a beautiful person inside and out. Thank you for this video.

Messy hair finger applier here! Beautiful look! You told me years ago about Maybelline express eye pencil. When I put on so many products, like pencil,snail mucin, my Seint you pop into my brain! You’re a treasure, and a wealth of knowledge. Great video, as always!

Michelle, this look is so beautiful! I loved the peach Elf cream shadow on you. I love what you said at the end. I appreciate you & thank you for advocating for our demographic ❤

I loved this video - the finished look was so beautiful. I love drug store videos, it's proof that you don't have to be rich to look beautiful on a budget. All you need is a good product and a basic knowledge of how to apply it.

Great viedo! Alot of us can't afford luxury makeup, so thank you. You do such a wonderful job of explaining to us, how to apply the products. How nice it is to get this advice, from someone with soo many years of experience. You look Beautiful as always!

Putting eyeshadow on my eyes with my fingers always works and blends out . I've done it since the 80s and 90s as well. I'm 47. We didn't have the tools we all have today. Using my fingers just feels right.

Michelle I’d love if you could do a video on eyeshadow brushes! Your favorite drugstore/high end sets!

That Max Factor mascara was incredible-AND it came in an auburn shade that I loved

I love the idea of using an eyeshadow stick for the inner eye highlight. It’s a little challenging to get in that area with a brush or finger, will try this. Thanks! Love adding new tips and tricks.

Absolutely beautiful! Would you consider a clean beauty drugstore video? Safe ingredients are super important to me but seem to come with a big price tag. It’s a battle of budget vs pretty and safe mature skin for me.

I am a new Seint/Mature Makeup Masterclass/Look Good Closeup Club member, and I am LOVING every video! You’re such a great teacher/educator! Thank you for sharing your expertise and knowledge! ❤️ Here is a future idea for a video, if you haven’t already done one, a video of favorite drug store travel sized products. All skin care and makeup travel sized favorites! I know you can buy travel containers and just portion out from your full sized product containers; but I’m lazy and just like to quickly pack up my clear travel makeup bag with travel sized products. But not every product is offered in a travel sized options. And I certainly don’t want to skip any skincare nor makeup products while traveling, sometimes it’s even more important to use all the skincare while away from home, as travel can be so hard on our skin. Just an idea, thank you 😘

I would love to see one of these every quarter. This was awesome. I also really appreciate all of the drugstore videos you do as well as all of the drugstore brand specific videos you do. From a girl on a very tight budget.❤

Beautiful look! Please keep doing drugstore videos!

Yesterday I went into our local drugstore here in small town Canada to pick up some nail products, and just had a browse at the cosmetic brands along their wall. I was pleasantly surprised at my confidence approaching the large selections. It was great to recognize your favourites and be able to make choices for myself knowing that you have tested them out for performance. It can be overwhelming and expensive to go in blindly. Thanks for taking the guessing work out for us. I’m one of your Seint customers/ friend, but always learn helpful tips from your other videos. Love this soft glam look. 🙌❤️

Thanks so much for listing all the products! Such a wonderful array of products to choose from. And so many great tips mixed in. I'm loving these Drugstore presentations! I look forward to your videos, especially on Saturday mornings.

You look beautiful Michelle! Thank you for this video. I always appreciate your recommendation on products because I know you give us your honest opinion.

Totally enjoying these drug store videos! I worked for Lancome in the 80's/early 90's. However in the last several years I've been going as cruelty-free as I possibly can! The Milani/elf/NYX= all great- Cover girl too... I've always loved Loreal, but just hesitate to buy anymore. I looked up Revlon & unfortunately they're not cruelty-free 😢 I really liked the tint you put on... I will look into that Melani concealer 💕 Very disappointing that (by now) these high end brands (Lancome/Lauder, Channel, etc.) have not gone cruelty free- So important! Really like your vibe- we're just talking & playing w/makeup 😊

I have used the Revlon Colorstay lipliner in Nude for years now. I can’t believe it doesn’t get more attention than it does. It’s the perfect color, and it lasts! It’s as good or better than my high end lipliners, including Chanel!

Revlon! Damn it I was just looking for that pencil with the brush but I was thinking it was Maybelline for some reason. I definitely want to try that! Thank you! Love you! 💃💃💃

Love your hair today. Michelle wear whatever you like. The shadow is lovely on you. You are so pretty no matter what you wear. I purchased that pencil after I saw you use it. I love the way it goes on and the brush is marvelous. You look beautiful in those make-ups.

I will never us tiktok so thanks for all these fab RU-vid videos.

Love this look on you especially the eyes. I could buy everything you try plus my Seint. You’re just great. Thank you Michelle!

Okay so, not only is your make-up always on point, but so is your hair! You should do a hair video, too!! ❤❤❤❤❤

Love your positivity. Yes, I will try this eye makeup technique.

Taking one for the team. 😂

Diet Doctor Pepper is extremely toxic. Ruins yr credibility. Makes me question yr judgment on other things. Lord

Love your videosa Thank you. Would you mind adding time stamps? It really helps, as your videos are quite long for a super busy mom. Much appreciated!

Michelle what would you recommend using drug store makeup to cover dark pigment on my eye lids. I’m 61 I’ve just started to notice my eye lids are getting darker.

Have you tried the physicians formula concealer? It has the tower 28 texture but doesn’t crease like the tower 28. There aren’t many shades so the fair-light is a little too light for me and the med-tan is too dark. :/ I still use the fair-light.

You don’t have to tell us drugstore makeup is great.😂 Most of us are fully aware high end is the same just spoofed up packaging and most high end luxury brands don’t even have different packaging than more inexpensive brands. Same companies own drugstore and high end and the dupes are in the drugstores

Think it would be wise to select products that do not test their products on animals. Don’t support companies like revlon that do test on animals. If nobody knows what’s involved in testing cosmetics on animals perhaps research it. It’s a very cruel and unnecessary practice.

$32.99 Roc vit c ..ummmmm no way I’d spend that much if u know anything about vitamin C .. this is not the way to go .. do better b better .. u can find quality & cheeper

That Nyx finishing powder is one I think everyone needs because it blurs without altering the color of your base, or giving a white cast- comparable to the high end finishing powders. The Can’t Stop powder also is good but not as good as the HD finishing for blurring and smoothing. A loose powder I think is so underrated and that’s because people generally hate strongly scented products is the Pacifica Cherry Velvet loose powder. It is better than all the powders I’ve tried if you need a powder that blurs without changing the color of your makeup products, oxidizing or appearing to have powder. The smallest amount is all that’s needed too. My second favorite loose powder is the Coty Airspun specifically in Neutralizer. I’m not a fan of the others because they are too pink/colored. They need to come back with the unscented version and it would never be able to be kept in stock. The scent is the only reason people don’t buy that as an alternative to Huda and all those other viral powders.

Stop saying you are a 25 year blah blah blah....... tired of hearing it year after year

How do you know the serum tint doesn’t show pores or texture?? You don’t have any! Yes, Im jelly 😊

I too love the Max Factor 2000 Cal mascara but I can't find it so I stopped because of that.

God, if i looked like you i wouldnt wear any makeup! What a freedom that would be, i wear a lot, takes me 45 minutes,!

Can you share the link for the crown brushes you mentioned please?

I searched for other 2024 quarters, are there updates

I love that Revlon skin tint too. It’s a lot like my favorite Ulta Crush Complexion. They give enough coverage to be your foundation base. Maybelline skin tint is another great one and that one has way more staying power while smoothing the skin while being a pearlized- very unusual it wouldn’t accentuate texture. The Milani is great if you use a small amount, otherwise it can look dry, heavy and emphasize texture, but if you love full coverage or have acne or other pigmentation issues this is a great foundation/concealer in 1. It’s more a high end formula that lasts through any weather and event- highly recommend it and it also does work great as a concealer as well. Love you are bringing back the old gems with newer drugstore products. We tend to forget about all the great older products because there’s always newer products coming out and we are on the search for the newer and greater makeup and skincare products. Dig in those drawers and get out those older products you once loved. Eco Tools is sold everywhere. It’s a very popular brand for brushes and tools.

Thank you so much, Michelle!!!!…I loved your series on drugstore makeup!!!…I am transitioning to drugstore, because of your series!!!…much love and appreciation!!!!…stunning look on you!!!💜💜💜💜💜💜

I am like you & have a 5 head but is also have white hair in my hairline & have problems if I put bronzer in my hairline, any tips or tricks that would help me? 💗

What do you recommend for ppl with grey hair as adding it to the scalp doesn’t blend well…help

Another stunning look and great video! Thank you so much for all you do xox ❤

You are so beautiful!!! Thank you for this video! 😊💗🤗

I have been going light in the middle 😮😮😮 you are schooling me😊😊😊😊

Loved that look and like when you use drugstore product

The nose dents from glasses are the worst. Can't believe no one has invented a better nose pad. Think I'll start working on it.

I just got my Sonia Rosselli sex appeal and the moisturizer wow what great products, I can’t wait until I can get more. Thanks ❤

Weren’t you all just about using clean beauty? What happened to that?

What about if you have platinum hair color. You can't go into your hair line

What is that straw????! Can you please share any info on it? Thanks

Best of the best for Bougie on a budget each season sounds fabulous.

What is the stew you are using? That’s super cool 😮

New sub, you are so cute and fun!! Glad I found you!❤

RUN RUN to get the ESPRESSO ISH Lilac Street lashes. There was an error from the manufacturer and they are slightly lighter than the normal Original lashes in ESPRESSO. I'm looking forward to wearing them for a less harsh look. Drugstore make-up is always great to add to our make-up collections.

I don't even bother to look at powdered eyeshadow anymore because the crayons are so easy and with a heavily hooded eye you don't see the eyelid any anyway so one and done is my jam. Easy make up rocks!

Thank you. I love Diet Dr Pepper and Elf too!

What kind of lashes and glue are you using

Just found you on RU-vid and absolutely love the content!

Your final look is so beautiful and the drugstore options are amazing! I am loving the new color palette on you! And I love your lashes at the end!! This series is so fun to watch! Thank you! ❤

Hi Michelle, I know this is a bit off topic. However, would you mind sharing where your gold hoops are from. Very pretty!

I have such a hard time finding tints or tinted moisturizers for my skin color. I am very fair and everything looks so dark or orange. Any suggestions for pale skin?

Love this video 😊

Did CVS stop carrying Milani? I think mine did!

Yes! Max Factor 2000 mascara was the BOMB!!!! Started using it in high school until I couldn't find it anymore! Thank you for your videos!!!

Just curious, what is the function of the triangle straw.

Beautiful

I love your videos. I remember when you'd clip back your hair on the sides so it was out of your way. I loved that, so we could see everything you do with your craft without distraction, and you didn't have to constantly touch it and move it out of the way💜

Years ago I loved Revlon Charlie foundation in gold frost beige. I’m dating myself Lol! Miss Max Factor. Thinks it’s sold in the UK!

Omg you look amazing. Did you have more work done on the folds that were by smile lines? How did you fi😊x that? I SO WISH I COULD DO FACELIFT

Hi from caledonia Ontario just was wondering what your thoughts are on the Natrium line! I heard elf just acquired them! Just purchased their purple ginseng cleansing balm!

i also love max factor 2000 mascara! maybe you could try some max factor products, nobody talks about their products and i don't know why. i would greatly appreciate such a video

I have another idea for content. Do you have that Haus Labs foundation? It’s supposed to be wonderful, and I do love the way it feels, but I cannot make it look good! It shows all my texture and pores. It is the only foundation I have that does that. I’ve tried different brushes, and some of them look better than others but all end up looking terrible. Not sure if I have the wrong color or if I’m somehow not using it right. I hate to Declutter it because I love the way it feels and I guess I could keep it just as skin care and wear it on the days I’m not going anywhere, anyway, my question is if you have it, could you show us how a mature skinned person can use it and make it look nice? I have normal to dry skin so it should work!! Only thing I can think right now is that I have two light of a shade, which you have told us will cause this to happen. Maybe if there are a couple of other foundations that require a certain “trick” to apply correctly maybe do a video like that? Thank you for the way you do product reviews without making people feel pressured to buy stuff. And especially for your tutorials. I almost had to get off RU-vid completely because most content creators are just trying to sell stuff, and that is simply not good for me to watch all the time. I do appreciate good product reviews, but there’s a way of doing it that doesn’t make people feel like they’re going to miss out if they don’t run right out and buy something. I’m trying to do a better job of buying only what I need as I run out of it. Thanks again!

I'm definitely a fan of the eco tools brushes. I'm not certain of in store availability, but I recently purchased some online from Ulta. Thanks for another great video. Your content is enjoyable and helpful!

Thanks so much!!!! Love messy hair. I got so many compliments today, hair , and my makeup is because of you😊 55 young. Compliments from a 24 year old gal🤗🤗🤗🤗

I am going drugstore these days! I am not replacing many of my high-end favorites and replacing with dupes! I am doing okay with that so far! You are so understanding of us and supportive!! I have learned so much from you! I appreciate you ❤

You are adorable~ thank you for showing us quality drugstore makeup! I tend to shy away from drugstore makeup bc I thought it was lower quality. Thank you for opening my eyes to possibilities…❤

Love this, Michelle❣️ Fun and informative as always, and you’re beautiful 💖🤩

Thanks so much for this video! I am a Warm Spring, so I am loving your colour choices!!

Hi Michelle You can buy the elf spf glow in different shades in the UK. Maybe you can online in the US?!

Love the magnifying glass idea - thx Jen😂 Got mine out of the ‘man draw’ and popped it on my dresser. Saves me hunting for that allusive pair of readers and unlike those, it’s going to stay just where I need it❤

You look beautiful! Gotta say, this looks more attainable than Seint. I'm 69 and I just can't get Seint to cover and last. Regarding these products, Is there any way you can include the shades you might recommend for those of us who are cool? Also, can you share who you recommend to "do colors"? Thanks for great sharing and encouraging!

🕵🏼‍♀️Thanks, Jen! 👁️🔍

That lipstick is beautiful!! I’m gonna try to find it 🩷

The Milani Eye Primer is my absolute favorite drugstore eye primer! I’ve tried several and non compare to it.

What’s up with that wacky straw???😳😂

I really love the Wet and Wild eyeshadow pencils too. They have a white that reminds me of Seint’s Unicorn but it is so much easier to put in the corner of the eye. It brightens so beautifully.

New sub! 🥰👍

I love your gentle spirit and your desire to help the 40s, 50s and beyond tribe!

All you need is the Revlon skin tint. It looks so natural on you. Beautiful!

Lovely look. Now do all drugstore mature skin care.

This makeup look is beautiful on you!❤️❤️❤️

What a versatile look! WOW! I am headed to the drugstore in the next few days to hunt some of these down.

The lash and roll is not a tubing mascara the extender lash is.

Omg. Such a beautiful and natural look.

this is a great video and the hair! so beautiful, really suits you

Thank you for doing drugstore 🙂
