@@maturemakeupmasterclasswhere have you been all my life?!?!? This is right up my alley as far as what I need as a mid 40 woman who has grown to love makeup, but need all the help I can get now that my age is poking thru. You have such a lovely personality. I am so happy I found your channel.❤ I’ll be binge watching all but the Seint videos😂especially the drugstore and affordable brands. Rarely do I find a high end or luxury product that I can’t find just as good in the drugstore for far less, but I absolutely agree with you on the brow products for blondes. It’s always a good day when someone finds an accurate blonde drugstore brow product- be it a pencil, pen, brow mascara, powder or pomade. They tend to have a green hue for some reason or run to warm or being straight amber. I love Katie Jane Hughes Annnd your longer videos too. This is really helpful!
You did a great job. I can’t believe that was all elf. I will definitely get it next time but I have tons of make up that will last a lifetime so I don’t know probably just buy it!
I'm 46 yrs old and have been using makeup for as long as I can remember and I have NEVER thought about going a shade or two darker to not show texture. That completely makes sense but I just never thought about it. Thank you!
Use the lens that works for YOU. You bring us the content, so use whatever works for you. I like both to be honest. Elf has always been a staple in my makeup and skincare drawers. ✨️ ❤
For me, I mostly want a camera and lighting that shows the real life colors. That way I know whether I want to buy the same color products. Thanks for doing ELF. I love a lot of their products but not all, so it’s great to see them on you.
You too would look amazing if you had Botox, fillers, lip enhancement and plastic surgery. Who wants to look like an alien and not grow old gracefully. Just my opinion
I used the Elf “ Halo Glow” liquid. I posted a selfie on Facebook and sent a text picture to my best girlfriend who immediately said I used a filter or digital remaster my picture! I said nope used nothing! Hours later I was looking to see if my makeup from Elf still looked good and it dawned on me it was the Halo Glow from Elf. I also used Elf Glow translucent powder. I’m so impressed by Elf products and their ingredients!
Drinking my coffee & scrolling through searching for your exact type of content. The over 50 type. You have just become my absolute favorite. So informative. The way you educate is perfection. Truly! Thx❤
I'm one of those gals who loves a full face of makeup. I love glam! I love the Kevin Aucoin, '80s super model gorgeous glam. I try doing a no-makeup look and it always turns into glam. It may not be a bright color or dark smokey eye glam, but it's still glam. I admire those women who can use the most subtle touches of makeup before leaving the house and facing the day, but that's not me. I often wear makeup even on my days at home when I only leave my house to go outside and do farm chores, LOL! As for your color/season.... You're a mermaid! Or maybe just a gorgeous butterfly. Work it! You look good in that rose color.
This is my first time watching one of your tutorials. I’ve learned so much! Thank you so much for not only teaching me but enlightening me! I am a registered nurse, retired, and I can tell you it seems like they put geriatric patients on the gloomiest, saddest units! They’re so cold and depressing. In some of the rooms there wasn’t even a painting on the wall! No stimulation for these poor elderly people! Seems like the message they’re giving is that because you’re old your life doesn’t mean that much! Every person deserves to be treated with dignity and respect! The message that the healthcare industry is giving us elderly folks scares the hell out of me! Bless you for having the love and compassion for your Mom to never leave her alone in one of those “slaughterhouses.” I’ve loved ELF since they’re lipsticks, pencils, and even powder cost $1. Just subbed!🙏🏻🌹💗
@cathygiuliana9089 We think alike! I'm a retired RN BSN too. I've had the unfortunate experiences of becoming a patient for the last 3 years; bouncing from one unexpected medical experience to another. Absolutely scared the @#$@ out of me when I was forced to begin my physical rehab in a "rehab. facility. " It was horrendous and frightening while supposedly one of the best in my area. Thank goodness, I had my wits about me and figured out very quickly that I needed to get out ASAP. It required a lot more family support that was quite a burden, but there was no way I was going to stay there. While there, one Nursing Assistant offered to help me w a dab of lipstick and a smidge of eyebrows. I was so happy! She made such a difference! Such minor things can change your entire outlook & actually improve your ability to heal quicker. I learned a lot thanks to this video! Best wishes!
The fact that people would want someone else to look WORSE so that they can feel better about themselves is..................definitely a good example of things going wrong in our society these days. I'm just not sure how I feel about that lol. It's weird to me.
I think that I want to see more detail so that I know what is normal, if that makes sense, and to know how to correct it best. Also, it makes me realize that my pores are normal, my texture is normal, and not to freak out about my skin. I hope that makes sense. Michelle is so beautiful, inside and out, and she has definitely been such a help and a blessing to me.
@@maturemakeupmasterclass That's so sad. One of my favorite things about you is how stunning you are and how you've aged so gracefully. I'd never want to take that away from you. We should all have things to aspire to!!
I think she meant that those individuals have bad skin and if they see someone else who has the same type of skin they don't feel alone. Don't jump to conclusions so fast. It's just a case of not feeling like the only one.
Seint is my daily/work and formal make up, but I love using drugstore - mostly ELF and Wet n Wild for weekends, running errands, etc. and just playing with elevating that no makeup makeup look with these. You videos just make my day, Michelle. Please keep bringing all these looks on a budget ❤ love the Monday review as well!
Hi I’m new to your channel and I just wanted to say 1 you look fantastic 2 I love that you do your makeup in real time and 3 I was flabbergasted when I heard you say you are 56 because I think you look phenomenal! I never would have thought that. I’m a supporter of cosmetic surgery. It’s nice to hear you being open about your procedures. I’m turning 36 this year and I’m so interested in it I’ve never had anything done I’m looking forward to your video in February you mentioned going over more details for those types of things! Elf is a great brand and I really enjoyed watching this video 🫶🏻
❤ I don't know what people are thinking when they say they can't relate? or you are not relatable? lol. Sista, you lay it ALL out there for the world to see! And I think that is what draws US to you. You are so relatable and LOVELY!! and HONEST! I, for one, love it and love YOU!! I'm so glad I found you! I'm here for it ALL☺️ Your GenX sista😊
I follow you on instagram, and I voted for the back camera, not because I want to feel good about myself but because so many people are filtered on instagram, even quite a few makeup artists. It really showed details, like when I'm in my bathroom mirror looking at my own face.
I loved this video! The final result is absolutely gorgeous. You look beautiful. I love the skin look and the full makeup look. It's fun to have options. I prefer the softer look of the front camera. Thanks for all you do to educate and help us look our best ❤.
When I do a full face of makeup, I look older. I really do up my skincare daily with products you recommended and follow the steps on Mature makeup masterclass for application. My Seint looks the best, or French face. I can go a little heavier on blush, but lip needs to be applied more of a tap tap. Eyeshadow needs to applied lightly and blended well to soften. Trying to look younger means easy light on makeup, which is all I did in my younger years!
You look great no matter what you put on. Being a Texan, I loved the makeup look in the 80’s and 90’s, but not so much now. I prefer a more sheer look. I think that French Face gives a greater coverage and still looks skin like. That is a great alternative for a heavier look without feeling heavy. Thank you for making this video- Elf has come a long way through the years! ❤
I’ve used the other Elf brow pencil for years and it was pretty good but the new one that they came out with, the one you’re using, is AMAZING! I also love the new camo blushes! I used the putty blushes for a long time as well. They keep improving! I love Elf.
This looks beautiful on you!! Very fresh-faced look! Those colors are perfect on you, you just glow! Loved the blush, bronzer, and eye brow products. Thank you and enjoy your weekend, Michelle!!!🥰
I’m 74 and still don’t know much about makeup. I need a skin care routine. I’m fair completed with pink undertones. I really enjoyed your video! I’m going to continue to watch you! I’m having little blue veins and red spots (little) showing up. And a few brown spots. I appreciate any advice and I’m on a very limited income! Thank you!
Michelle!!!! I did an all ELF face tonight after seeing your video and getting inspired. I LOVE it! This will be my new go to non-Seint highlight+CC cream. Thank you!!!!
This is BEAUTIFUL!!! Being in the Deep South with my Tennessee accent LOL I like MAKEUP!! Especially my eyes!! If my eyes aren’t on I look 12!! 😂😂😂. EVERTHING looks great on you my friend!! We love your realness your personality your truth and heart! You do so much for us and I think I speak for our community in RU-vid when I say WE DO SUPPORT EACH OTHER on this channel and I am grateful we do!! We are family my friend. This is simply gorgeous on you!! I LOVE LOVE ❤️ LOVE this look!! I’m still stunned it ELF😂😂😂. I do the shimmer trick all the time thanks to YOU!!

I'm so glad I found this channel. You're so informative. I to am a summer. I usecto be over the top with makeup, but now that I'm older, I'm tired of spending so much time and money on it. Thank you, thank you!❤
You are so lovely, and this look is just out of this world gorgeous! Thank you for all your time and attention to every detail, Michelle. You make it easier to follow and recreate a look. Your generosity and caring make your videos just top notch.
Thanks for the full face e.l.f.!!.So wonderful to have some cost effective options too. Picked up an e.l.f. brow pencil (blonde) and it's not too red as some tend to be. Really like their grippy primer too. Camera - do what works for you. I am so blessed to have found you and your channel.
I cant keep eye liner on but I did try something which worked! It was just an accident, a fluke. I grabbed an older large Morphe palette and used an angled skinny brush to put dry black shadow on as liner. Its been almost a yr using this particular routine every day and it stays on all day. Carbon shadow by MAC is similar to the Morphe black if you want to try it.
Beautiful color palette! Looks perfect for a soft autumn like me. I thought I was a spring or summer. Nope. I was avoiding certain colors for years because I didn’t think I’d look good in them. It turns out the fern and olive green look good on me!
Wow, the drastic difference from the front to the back camera. I can definitely relate more now to the back camera look. Thank you for the tutorial, love the colors!
New to ur channel. Im 43 live in atx. Im obsessed with all things skin care this year. Im doing all my own microneedling at home, and chemical peels. Cant wait, to see what u have coming.
Thank you for showing videos even while you're still recovering from a peel! We need to work with that too... lol. I do a lot of at home stuff and sometimes struggle to work through the texture issues. You look gorgeous today❤
Hello from Colorado! I just started watching your video tutorials and am now addicted to watching you! I have mature skin and I'm getting such great info from you! Thank you, Nikol, from one business woman to another! Keep on shining with your beautiful glow!
You are absolutely beautiful without makeup! All these products from ELF look so good for drugstore options and so pretty on you! I haven’t worn makeup in over 15 years but I need to start because of the way my skin is looking.. thanks menopause lol.. Have a wonderful weekend ❤❤
Your voice sounds like Kim Kardashian which is why its great for making videos. Its a nice soothing voice. Looking youthful and beautiful. I love ELF make up!!
I have and use some Elf products and brushes and I love them all….and they don’t break the bank. You are always beautiful in everything 😍🤩 I could live from here on out, with my Demi and my Elf❣️
Hello Michelle, thank you for this video and I’m glad that you’re showing us drugstore makeup products #elf. You’re looking 👀 gorgeous 😊 I really love this makeup look.
OH MY GOODNESS YOU LOOK FABBY-TAB-U-LOUS! I'm HERE for the GLAM & here for the French face & I've been your Seint customer from the beginning. Some days I want it all, some days I want a much more shear look. No matter what my vibe is that day, you've taught me how to do each look & I'm so thankful you are willing to share all of your knowledge. CONGRAT'S on the sale of your Charlotte home. Hope you are going to love Nashville!
Thank you for helping us with future vids using fuller coverage. I do skincare to lighten my melasma thats on about 35% of my face. I do color correct with a salmon shade, but still need medium-full coverage.
LOVE It as always!!!!!!!!!!! Love these colors, you always look STUNNIG in any makeup Michelle! Love your channel, every body is gentle just like you! You're my preferred mentor!
I love that eyebrow pencil also! It's silky and glides on. If you are a beginner with doing your brows, get this eyebrow pencil, or if you are an expert already, get that pencil too.
Michelle! I am so glad I tuned in again. I love elf - I have been a fan of the company since forever (I am 58 years old). They just keep bringing it. I have many of the products you used today - beautiful look, lovely technique. (I chuckled - I still prefer using my fingers to apply and blend my foundation. That’s how I was trained in makeup artistry many years ago. ❤️👍
Wow! Fun and gorgeous look with elf! I had no idea the back camera isn’t realistic and shows extra flaws we don’t see with the naked eye. I sure don’t want anything that adds flaws Michelle. But sure do love real. Thank you for being you! Love you and your content so so much!
I can't believe wow much I like it !!!! I like more with elongate wings, without false lashes, it looks more feminine ... And brown mascara looks much better than the black one !!! I would love to see more content like this, whith drugstore makeup, thankyou, Michelle !!!
Thank you so much you were absolutely wonderful showing the ELF cosmetics and talking about wearing make up. I really enjoyed it and I’m going to buy some ELF make up as soon as I get some money. Thank you so so much you are great I learned so much from you, have a blessed day and I can’t wait to see you again Kathy
So beautiful this has helped me out so much,im 41 now and ive not really worn a lot of makeup in like 6 years or so and i have worn full base make up for many years i think i was 13 when i started to get into it and i have always did an amazing job at least i thought ya know!? Lol but i have light brown eyes and medium to dark hair color and a light medium bronzie skin tone and ive always gravitated towards like cool tones and a like a bronzie tanned face which im indian and i get pretty dark in the summer time
I’m a huge KJH fan and I knew that priming the brush was from her… I’ve been doing that for a little while also. Love it. 61+ just discovered your channel and loving it!
I watched a Laura Mercier makeup artist last night on QVC. I already had several items in my Neiman Marcus bag. I am so happy I did not purchase anything and I watched you for the first time. This makeup looks just as beautiful as hers! I do think her translucent powder really is beautiful. But purchasing one thing s alot better than her entire line. It was great meeting and watching you. Thanks so much!
Just found your channel and watched this whole video, and loved it! Thank you! I recently switched to ELF products, I’m 67. I haven’t tried all the items you used so am happy you featured them. I also do NOT like the under eye concealer! 😊
I love this look on you and the tone. That mascara flaked on me unfortunately but I need some new elf. Your eyebrows look gorgeous and I love that they look fluffy and fresh. You are beautiful.
I agree with Yolanda. I am a Spring and my coloring is nothing like yours. I thought Summer also when I first saw you. I just found you on You Tube and I really like your videos.
Beautiful makeup look on a beautiful lady! You use the camera you prefer. I am so grateful to you. Thank you for giving so much of yourself and putting so much information and education out here for us. I got an Ulta gift card and guess what I’m spending it on 😉
You look gorgeous! I wished you lived next door so you could give me skin advice, along with what colors look good on me! Ty for all you do Michelle!! 😊
