Tip: if you do makeup sitting down, you can also put mascara between your thighs while you do your makeup. I got these thunder thighs I might as well make em work for me when I can 8)
I always do my makeup in the car and I put my mascara under my thigh while I drive. This bra thing might solve my problem of it rolling into the floorboard sometimes. Love it! 🤣
Can that work with a powder blush too? I guess not because you'd have to really dig in but I'm really inexperienced with makeup so I don't really know 🙈
@@iridizousa8578 I don't know if they would mix well or not but a good way to get just a little bit of powder out without digs chunks out is to use a spoolie brush (or an old, cleaned mascara brush) and just lightly rub it. It makes a fairly fine powder and it doesn't mess up the pan too much
I do this with my lipsticks! I'll mix my lipstick and usually a glowy primer on my fingers and mush it all together and pat that on the higher points of my face. Works amazingly with spot concealing to create a quick fresh looking base that matches your lips
I think the number 1 tip we learned from this: be Emily E puts makeup on in reverse: beautiful E has toddler pick makeup: beautiful E does makeup with wrong hand: beautiful E does a full face of dud products: beautiful
"Those are the only instructions I've been given to put things in my bra..." if you could have seen my husband's face as he walked in when I was watching this, right as she said that! 😂🤣 love this video SO much!!!! 👏🏻❤️
For the mascara tip : I just turn my hand so the small side of the brush is in the inner corner with both eyes! It helps a lot. I can't do it over my nose. I get black all over my nose when I do that!
These are the ones that I learned from Mary Greenwell: a flat foundation brush (the regular old ones) for applying powder! It applies just the right amount and totally flat so you don't even notice it sitting on the skin; and a good old toothbrush for the eyebrows. They totally work! ✌️🏼😁✌️🏼
I just have to say, I couldn’t have loved this video more. I think you should make it a series! I am always so engaged in your videos but today’s was next level. I loved it, I loved the tips, A+, 10/10 on this one Em. This is why I love your channel! Your unique and your ideas are creative! Huge, huge fan here!
If you’ve ever watched Allie Glines, she uses a beauty blender after using her brush sometimes to smooth out any lines that the brush might leave, and it does actually work.
I have done that when I only had crappy brushes. I felt washing both tools very frustrating so I invested in some really nice brushes and no more brush traces now.
I always pat over my foundation with my fingertips after using a brush to apply, it gets rid of any lines and helps melt the foundation into the skin! Gives a similar result to using a beauty blender after the brush
Li Lei I agree, and for some reason the sweet spot with my foundation brush is 2ⁿᵈ/3ᴿᴰ application. Little foundation already on the brush = less streaks.
I am trying the lash primer in my brows today!!!!🤪 I've been reversing the order of my highlighter, blush, and bronzer for the past couple of years and love the effect. LOVED this video and the idea of it SO much! Thank you for creating this community of sharing, kindness, and honesty all these years! Blessings to you, Tyler, the girls, and prayers for the safe, healthy arrival of your son!💕😘🙏🤰🤱👨👧👧💗🙏
Love this video! If you ever do a second one - when curling my lashes, I curl at the base, then go slightly further from the root and turn the angle of the curler up a bit, then a third time further and angled more. It creates more of an even curl rather than a harsh angle! I know you have stubborn lashes, so I would be curious to see if this makes a difference for you! I have always switched hands for mascara, too! Then you never get mascara on the bridge of your nose by mistake! I also always use a lash comb (I like the real techniques one) for clumps instead of a needle because I'm nit-picky, but not THAT confident that i won't poke an eye out lol
Me too, girl!!! Not to get too personal, but I wear a 32 A and sometimes (when I get lucky/a bra runs small) a 32 B. There's no way a lash curler would fit in my bra. Thankfully, I don't need one.😆
A couple of things I’m glad we’re brought up, as I also do them: 1. Darker eyeshadow first, then to the lightest shade. 2. Left hand for left eye mascara, right hand for right eye. Awesome tips today!!!!
That is how i have been doing it for about a year. I so my transitions color then crease. If i am doing some of the darker color on outer lid then i will do the lid, then lighter color and highlight. Can’t remember who taught me that order but i never went back.
My 2 cents worth of a tip - I use an oil ( Tarte Maracuja to be exact) on my under eye while I’m prepping my skin before makeup. I had trouble with cakey and dry looking concealer. The oil def helps me
Did the mascara in my bra tip this morning? And I love it - mascara hasn’t applied this well in weeks. Dang - now I have to wear a bra when I do makeup!
I’ve always done my mascara “2-handed” as well. When I’ve tried to do it one-handed I always get it on my nose. And I love the idea of doing the eyeshadow in reverse order. I’ll def have to try that one.
I put on my mascara, the brows, then liquid eyeliner. The mascara dries while I am doing my brows, and then I can nestle the liquid eyeliner down in the lashes since they are more firm from the mascara.
Lefty here, but everyone always thinks I'm crazy when I say that I learned to write with my right hand by applying eyeliner with my right hand. When I started doing my makeup, it never even occurred to me to use my left hand for both eyes lol
Madison Duke ughhhh! The struggle is real. I’m a lefty too, that left eye always looks bomb, right eye looks like I got in a fight with a drunk panda! Still can’t get it right....
DianeCee0 I brush it across my nose and forehead. I am so fair and choose not to do bronzer. It gives my face some life. I even dust blush lightly under my brows. Wayne Goss recently did a similar vid on blush.
Yep me too. Great minds. I prefer to use an old clean benefit they're real mascara wand for this bc I feel that type of brush works better also I let my mascara dry before doing it so that all I'm removing is clumps. Do u grab the lashes from the top&kinda curl outwards? That's what I do. It also separates them too ,ppl always think I hv extensions lol.
I used to use a sewing straight pin to separate my lashes when i was a kid, but I don't anymore. I use the real techniques metal lash brush instead - that was a tip from you years ago!!
My mother taught me that lipstick trick many years ago. Your lip color & cheek color will match. Some creamy lipsticks make beautiful blushes especially in the rich autumn lipstick colors... Such a FUN video Emily.♡♡♡
Here’s a tip I got from my mom when I was in high school: to get rid of clumpy mascara, take an old mascara wand (extra product removed and sanitized) and go over your regular mascara when it’s really clumpy! Hope that makes sense! Haha
I used to always do this because I’d never buy brush sets that had spoolies. Side note, if you’re not keeping the old wands for this purpose I think there’s a wildlife rescue that takes them as donations.
That is what I do. I saved my favorite mascara wand from a mascara and use that. I started doing this in junior high because I would purchase cheap mascara. Let's just say that I've been doing this for many many years! Lol Better than taking a chance of damaging your eye.
Sam Ravndal taught me this tip: using a felt tip eyeliner or other liquid eyeliner on the top part of lashes to darken them if mascara on top makes it clumpy or spidery.
When im being ultra lazy i use my blush as eyeshadow or just as a transition color. It gives a really sweet and soft look. I also separate my clumped eyelashes with those eyebrow combs that sometimes come with cheap brush sets. A lot less dangerous than the safety pin! Lol
Yeah, do NOT do this! I scratched my cornea accidentally, just using a regular eyelash comb, and it has never completely healed, 6 years later. Now I have to put prescription ointment in that eye every night.
OK Emily....for the 50 plus years I've been wearing mascara, I "BEND" the wand. (I've only had a couple that would not bend and I've only broken maybe 2). Insert the brush into the tube...pull it out just so that the brush is still in the tube and very carefully bend the wand slightly. You will never have an issue doing your opposite eye. Hold your hand down in front of your face and point the tip of the wand toward the inner corner and apply away!!!!! Didn't see your original message for ideas but this truly is "life changing". Now...I'm going to try the tip about primer on my eyebrows!!!!! Mine are so sparse with very blonde tails - just know this will work! This was a great video. xoxo patti
Should have been studying for Pharmacology, but waited for your Saturday morning video :D :D After almost a decade of watching you, I am finally the first comment :D :D
I seem to remember you doing a video once where you did do your highlight before your blush for the same reason you stated here. I remember this because I have been doing my order that way since I saw the video. Makes it look way more natural - as much as highlight can look natural.
I’ve always put blush on the bridge of my nose since I started using makeup as a teenager. I absolutely love the kissed by the sun look! I think it’s super cute. Works the best with dusty rose kinda shade.
Even though I wear falsies every day, I used to have a mascara trick. I would use the same type of mascara, but have 3 tubes all of varying ages. Start with the oldest, curl, the middle aged, curl again. Then the newest tube on top. Curl lasts all day!
I don’t know how to fully express how much I look forward to your videos! The Saturday morning ones are a ritual for me and a wonderful relaxing way to start the weekend! Thank you, Emily 🤗💕
My fave tip was to put the outer corner darker eye shadow on first. And also to put highlighter, blush bronzer. I usually do bronzer before blush. Can’t wait to try to do things differently.
“Before going into labor” 🤣🤣🤣 I love it! I loved this video it was a lot of fun watching you mix it up. I’m definitely going to try some of these tips.
Thank you for using my "technique!" I love so many of these tips and tricks, as I feel like I've learned so much more from this video than I have from any I've seen in years. I'm definitely going to try that extra setting spray step, and the setting powder over my primer. :) Thanks for this video, Emily!
That was fun! I’ve actually gone back to applying foundation with a brush and then using the sponge after. It gives a lovely finish to produce. Also use the same brush on top of powder to kinda melt everything together.
So Emily, no joke: as I'm watching the part where the safety pin is coming closer to your eye, an AD comes on! My immediate thought is "Oh no! She done lost an eye!! It's a technical difficulties cut away!" No more perfect place for an ad 😂 Seriously though, love you and this video! Glad your eye is okay, and maybe stick to a spoolie?? My heart can't take those shenanigans! 😉
I used several of these tips today and they all worked great!!! My faves were powdering my nose and t-zone first, using the eye primer under my eyes, letting the concealer sit for 2 minutes before blending, and warming the eyelash curler. They all made such a huge difference in my makeup. Will definitely be implementing these 4 for sure into my daily routine!
The safety pin tip has been something I used to watch my aunt and mom do. I have done it myself. Love lipstick as blush. I do bronzer highlight then blush. Stipple blend my while face after I'm done with powder. Blends everything like a dream
Oooh I definitely highlight blush bronze as well! Highlighter on the bottom makes my blush look so much better and bronzing last helps me warm up my look just enough for whatever direction I was going for that day
I looooove this video, my tip is i always have used my damp towel that i used to dry my hair after a shower, after all my make up is finished I used that damp towel and place it over my face and softly press down and it melds everything together I've been doing this since before setting spray years before....and lightly on under eyes ....first all over face then one time on under eyes hope that makes sense...looks great!
I am SO happy you liked the lipstick as blush tip!! I have been following you for 10 years - I was in 10th grade when I started watching your channel & now I’m going to be graduating med school soon. You’ve kept my love for “makeup playtime” alive and I will never tire of watching your videos ❤️❤️
Way back in the day, I saw a tip that stated to apply your primer and foundation however you do, then wait a few minutes. Then take a tissue (I’ve used toilet paper, lol) and VERY lightly press across face, like you would with a blotting paper, then powder and go about regular routine! it honestly helps keep it from getting Cakey. And I also use the blush across noses, chin and forehead:)
Emily never ceases to amaze me with her truly unique and creative video ideas! I've been watching since (at least!) the bright pink makeup room, and imo she is above and beyond any other beauty channel I've seen with her authenticity, passion, details, and calm/positive vibe. Much love from Houston, TX!! :)
Two from my mom to me to you: 1) toothbrush sprayed with hairspray to tame your brows 2) baby comb (or brow comb) for your lashes - in lieu of the safety pin!
I love how this is very old school RU-vid. I love how you mentioned the products you used but it was about the technique used instead & I love that. I hardly ever watch YT makeup videos anymore because I can’t afford to keep up with everything anymore. But I loved the way this turned out! That lippie on you looks stunning!!!
