Thank you Kerry! Great look! We'll be picking up some of the things you presented here. I also want to thank for these tutorials. My wife went through cancer treatments, and I found that makeup helped her feel better, especially through that period when she lost her hair, and throughout her extensive recovery period. I learned from you what to get, and how to put on her makeup. You have blessed us through some very difficult months. God bless you Kerry, and thank you very much.
Did you ever hear about the Look Good Feel Better program (I think that's the name of it)? There are probably others that provide makeovers and gift products. I had breast cancer and the hospital had a program where we got professionally fitted and given 2 bras. There are a lot of good resources out there.
What a wonderful sweet and caring person you are, I feel honored to be a VERY small part of your makeup ritual/healing. Thank you so much for sharing your story. I mentioned in this video that "I know it's only makeup, but..." We all have times when we look in the mirror, and maybe it's not a "kind mirror" and we believe what we see. We also believe when we see a good reflection - our eyes see it, our brain process it (ooh, we're looking good today!) and we send that message to every cell in our body! Words like yours motivate me to keep up with this channel! Wishing you and your wife all the very best! 🙏🏻
I prefer products from Sephora than Ulta. I am a bit upset, Sephora was Moved and Ulta was the makeup store left. I even. Prefer Sephora products . Do you have an opinion about moisturizing with Josie Maran Argon Oil....not the butter.
Thank you. I’m 64, newly retired US Air Force. Active Duty makeup is very limited, more so in my career. Even though I never lost my feminine attitude, I did pack it away. Now, a civilian, I can go back to the makeup freedom of my early 20’s. I went to several makeup counters and asked for tips from women much younger than myself and got puzzled looks. “How could a grown woman not know how to use makeup?” I’ve purchased your recommended items, or as close as possible and I’m going to “play” with makeup looks. It DOES wash off! I’m also single and now have time to date again. So many ‘first’s” that had to wait! I may be retired, but I’m not dead! Thanks again.
Tightlining may the best technique I ever mastered. Defines my hooded eyes without the heavy appearance created by lining the top of the lashes. Even with nude matte shadow colors and very light lower lash lining, I never skip tightlining. And no thick full brows. It's too harsh on older faces, mine included.
@@IWillHaveThePastaThanks .. it's a technique most often using liquid or gel eyeliner, sometimes powder shadow or crayon, where you stamp in between the upper lashes bit by bit using a flat, tapered tip synthetic brush. About 3/4 ths of the eyelid "arc" is done for the most natural look.
I’ve worn makeup forever and you have taught me how to achieve this no makeup look. I am a bit older than you…still have good skin. This video was wonderful. Thank you so much!
Yep! L'Oreal True match NUDE, is my Favorite foundation!! I use ELF Whoa Glow, as a base, then dot on the foundation, I use a sponge to pounce and bounce it on. Then a light dusting of blush, contour with Anastasia Beverly hills bronzer. If I need it I use NYX Can't stop Won't Stop Concealer. I finish with a final light dusting of Cover Girl ageless blurring pressed powder, with a brush. I'm 60, and this is what works for me. Thanks for posting, stay beautiful and be kind!
I am mourning for my dog today when I Came across your video. You loook great and so young. The pace, the energy and your voice is just soothing for me. You are so soft spoken, you talk to us like Im really in front of you, the right company I need for now. A new subscriber here ❤ thank you and have a great day ❤️
I am so sorry for your loss. It is so hard when you lose a family member, especially when they are our four footed ones. Sending peaceful and happy thoughts out to you.
This is the first time I have seen a genuine no-makeup look, you are just enhancing your natural beauty rather than creating a mask and it looks beautiful. I am 40 and have never really worn makeup but am finding that I don't feel like myself as my face is changing, but you have helped me to feel more confident in using makeup to feel myself again but without having to paint on a mask. You look fabulous, and you have inspired me to see experimenting with makeup as something I can enjoy and don't need to be afraid of. Thank you ❤
I am 71 and have a beautiful complexion. I only use concealer, a natural tone lipstick and light mascara. I have never put anything on my face but Pond's Cold Cream.
I am your age. I've been looking for a way to just brighten my look. Your tutorial was fabulous! Thank you for taking the time to show how to achieve this look. Just beautiful.🌹
If there is only one thing I have leaned today about makeup is your tip about using dark eye shadow on the lash line instead of eye liner - brilliant! I can tell you at the end of the day removing eye liner even if it is the smudge variety (not waterproof) it is tiresome and tedious. What a breeze to remove just shadow - love it!
I’m 75 and have wanted to continue using makeup, but neither knew what to buy nor how to apply it. Thank you for your tutorial! All your suggestions fit my budget. Your manner was delightful and and I 29:09 loved😢 listening to you😊
You are so unpretentious and your demeanor is soothing. One important criteria for me is cruelty free products. Always check to be sure no critters were harmed in the process. 🦋
Bravo! Finally I see someone who really looks natural with a simple makeup. Most people think by spending hundreds of dollars with high brand names of makeup are going to look the best, but that's not the case in my opinion. If you are in your sixty you look in your fifty instead madam. Grea video
Thank you Kerry Lou! I love your videos! I, too, looked everywhere, including Ulta and Amazon for Magenta lip balm by Burt's Bees, but no luck finding it.
Hello beautiful Kerry Lou, You just found yourself a new subscriber and huge fan from Paris 💃🏻 I loved your video👌 So refreshing to have someone with a few lines and blemishes talk about products and makeup techniques😉 I’m a 68 year old retired graphic artist who has spent more time in hospitals than at home during the past seven years. My skin, however, is remarkably resilient in spite of age and 80 pounds lost in the past 3 years😮 My main issue with makeup is numerous dark spots (due to reckless sunbathing in the 70s!) and expression lines that don’t respond well to concealers and foundations, with good coverage😮 I’d totally given up on makeup, but decided to give it another go, a couple of months ago😅 I’ve followed hours of tutorials on skin care and makeup on RU-vid ever since and have been loving it🤩 I feel so light and carefree playing around with colors and brushes. Must be the child in me craving to come out and play🌈🥳 That said, I do wish I had come upon your channel sooner! It would have saved me so much money on products I don’t really use🙃 I’d love to know which microcurrent device you’re testing? Haven’t been able to decide on one myself and they can be so pricey😝 I read somewhere that some are not to be used if you have implants (which is my case)🤪 I’ll check out all your other videos to see if I can find more goodies😋 Have a great weekend and keep up the good work! By the way you look absolutely gorgeous, not a day over 50👏👌🥰😘
Thanks so much for sharing your story, I think everyone enjoys learning more about people, and what they're going through, in this community. The 'top secret' device I'm testing is the Ziip, and now it's my most used device, and I really see a difference in muscle and skin tone on my face. I'll do a review within the next month. Are you talking about dental implants? I hope the hospital visits are in the past now, and wish you the best of health and happiness!💪🏻💕
@@kerrylou3 Thank you so much for your warm and concerned response🙏 The hospitals are a semi thing of the past, but I’m slowly getting there 😂 The implants effectively are dental! Can’t wait for your feedback on Ziip💖
Absolutely love the look. Looks natural, but healthy. Thank you so much for sharing. I always enjoy watching your videos. I always learn something useful.
What a lovely look. My skin has never liked foundation, so I swap it out for tinted sunscreen over vitamin c and serum. Concealers can be tricky: some are gluey, others, as you say, are a strange pigment; importantly, as you say, less is always best. Great idea to use the same concealer for eyeshadow base, saves on useless and greasy primers! Thanks for the tip on contouring- I could never make it work, so I'm skipping it. Cheers for your expensive look on a budget❤
Kerry-Lou, so happy I found your beautiful self! Thank you so much for this particular video. After years of illness in which I lost use for my beloved make-up, I want to try again. This is when, though new & numerous choices are *great*, it's so overwhelming trying to shop for a whole new regimen of cosmetics! 😘🙏💜
You are lovely! Thank-you for this episode. I'm a 'barely there' make up person but age caught up and no I have no idea how to make myself look better. This has helped no end. Xx
I noticed my face being paler this summer than last summer. So obviously I’m using more sunscreen. I normally don’t wear makeup. But I love watching you since you’re a professional showing us how to do it the right way. The last time I tried to do my makeup I ended up washing it all off. I used to wear makeup everyday when I worked. Then just when I went out in public. No I don’t wear it at all. I’ve seen people line their water lines. I have very sensitive eyes and could never do that. But what you did with the water on the brush and putting it on your eyelid I can do. You look great when you’re done. You looked fine without makeup. But the cheaper the better in my book.
Thanks so much for your feedback Pamela. Regarding lining the waterline, I think it's a healthy reaction for our eyes to react to it - it's foreign matter going into our eyes! 😊
Hey, Kerry Lou. After watching your video I went out and purchased a bottle of L’Oréal true match plumping tinted serum foundation with 1% pure hyaluronic acid. I chose shade 3-4 light to medium. I cannot thank you enough for bringing this to my attention. I have spent $100’s over the years on foundations that just didn’t work for me. Either to dark, to light, to think etc.. This L’Oréal true match serum is perfect. It’s best feature is it’s ability to cover without looking overdone. It goes on smoothly and beautifully. As long as this product remains on the shelves this will be my go to foundation long into my sixties seventies and beyond. So thank Kerry - Lou ❤
Thank you, SO glad this was useful to you! I feel the same way - and if you've watched my channel before, you know I don't shy away from high end foundations!
I’m a no makeup look kinda gal so yr video was just perfect for me. Tbh, I think I’d look like a clown if I went a little further out of the box, but I would like to experiment more & that’s why I have a whole a new haul of makeup & accessories. I just need to sit down & play. I’m glad I’ve bumped into yr channel today.
I just bought a whole new haul of makeup too.. I am 73yrs old and have been very sick, but now I am feeling a little better and hope to just have some fun with my makeup. Hugs from Biloxi, MS USA
So pretty kerry lou! I love when you use less expensive products. I buy things from your recommendations and am never disappointed. You recommended L’Oréal lipstick in the shade sugar plum and it’s definitely more of a rose than a plum and has become a favorite of mine!
Hello Kerry-Lou! Is always a pleasure to see and hear you ... and learn from you ... Thank you so much for this sugestions, tricks and tips ... loved the final look ... my cup of tea! THANK you!
Kerry Lou, I really appreciate your videos. As I’ve aged (64) I really didn’t know how to adjust my makeup with my changing skin and looks. Your videos have really helped!!
Another great video. I’m trying to go for a simpler, less fussy makeup look, so I was very interesting what you had to say. I also have that particular Colorpop palette and I can’t begin to tell you how often I’ve used it over the past two years that I’ve had it. There’s a color for every occasion!
I picked up the NYX contour stick and love it! Both the fair shade & the highlighter with it are awesome! Vegan too which was a must. I love that it is a cool shade & so easy to apply. Thank you for the video! So glad I found it.
I love this look! And how nice to have info on drugstore price range makeup. I still feel my best when wearing makeup, but am finding I like a natural look for everyday. Thanks for all the great info.
I just discovered your channel today, and it's lovely. I like your no makeup look! I tend to do a no makeup look most of the time, and I've really loved the L'Oreal 4 in 1 Tinted Balm for that. It's very light and natural. I also use that same Burt's Bees Red Dahlia lip balm! Very nice to "meet" you.
Thank you! For a long time I have struggled with some kind of foundation that would work with my aging skin this video has basically made me feel good about wearing makeup again I did buy the products have been following the tutorial each time I'm using it and really just wanted to say thank you from a 62-year-old woman
I'm so glad to see that I made a good choices, I recently bought two of the products you showed us. Even I learned a tip from one of them. ❤❤❤ thanks Kerry Lou
Great advice...I bought the serum foundation today and the "elf" blusher in the shades you used as we are very similar colouring, I'm delighted with the result.Thankyou Keri Lou for all your videos.
So beautiful and thank you for this. One thing I’m noticing which is great, these products seem to blend nicely without being to rough and pulling the skin. 😊
Makeup was fun then dear!! I did the same! Here in the US it was The British Invasion! Mary Quant makeup, Twiggy lashes, on and on! I wore 3 pair of lashes! Miniskirts! On and on… So that was OUR generations fashion and look… it was a blast!! And we did it well♥️😂‼️🙋♀️ having said that? I loved this video! Thank you Darling♥️‼️🥰⭐️
Haha! you took me back in time there Sue! That's exactly the influence I'm talking about! Thank you, so nice to have people out there that get what I'm talking about! 😄
Hi Kerry Lou! I just saw your channel for the first time today and immediately subscribed. This is because your presentation is very pleasant and relaxed,your tips are well explained and easy to follow and you use affordable products. I look forward to watching more from your channel-thanks!🩷
Thank you so much Kerry! You are so lovely, and I have seen a few of your videos when you let your hair go curly too. I love your tips, and having been a make up artist for many years, I must tell you I am impressed and love your tips! Thank you again! I'll be looking for more of your videos. You truly are a natural beauty and show us how to look that way, as well.
I just loved this tutorial Kerry-Lou. I am almost 60 and have noticed myself wanting to wear less make up with a more natural and natural look as I get older. This tutorial was very helpful and I love how real and honest you are. I also enjoyed your makeup tips such as mixing my foundation with my moisturiser. I am looking forward to experimenting for a softer more natural look. I was pleasantly surprised that I already had Bert’s bees lip balm in Magenta 😂 Thank you again Kerry-Lou ❤
Thank you Kerry-Lou for the excellent tutorial. I am not a heavy makeup user. Retired and don't worry about it much. Never wore much when I worked either. But this tutorial I am going to try. I like a touch of makeup but still natural. I appreciate your suggestions and tools and tricks. Thanks again, Kerry-Lou.
You're welcome! I don't use makeup everyday, maybe a little concealer and tinted lip gloss, (my lips have hardly any color). I wear it if were going out for something social usually, not just around the house though, definitely no makeup at the gym etc. Nice to pull out a few tricks when you want to, or if you're feeling blah! 😉
I really appreciate your videos and all this make up is budget friendly and will look great on mature skin. Thanks so much. BTW, your hair pulled back looks great
Thanks so much for taking the time to check out this video, glad you liked it! It's so hot here at the moment, so good to just pull the hair back. I find if I pull it back, but make sure I do good lips 👄 - it works! 😁
Hi Kerry, I really enjoyed this video. It's without a doubt my favorite makeup. Super natural and fresh. I love it. Thank you very much for sharing. I love your videos. Blessings and greetings ❤🥰🌹
Good morning Kerry Lou, enjoying my ☕️with your wonderful video! Alway love it when you use only drugstore products 😊 after we were stuck home from Covid, I use less makeup when going on errands 😊 a little sparkle on my lids. Have a great week 😎
Good morning! Mmm, enjoy that coffee - first cups always the best. I think most people are doing less since Covid, and even though I'm a makeup artist - I think that's a good thing! Thanks 😘
Love this no makeup look with less expensive brands for getting out in the everyday! I don't have much luck with finger tip application. Can you consider a video with tips using brushes and sponges?
LOOOOOVE these vids……. I once had my make up done when I was in my 20s in the 80s at the mall I don’t think I ever ran so fast to my car and got home and wash my face. It was awful! I like the new make up, make up, look less is more.🥰🥰🥰🥰
Hello Kerry Lou! I tried the L’Oréal serum foundation but had to return as the 2 lightest shades were either too light or too dark. I am a difficult tone to shade match. But, the reformulated L’ORÉAL True Match Super Blendable foundation has a much broader shade range in various undertones and a blessed winner. I often only wear lipstick and no other makeup (love lipstick…it makes me happy!). But when I want to look a bit more polished, that is my go-to foundation. In fact I tossed some high end like NARS, Charlotte Tilbury. I kept ABH and Haus Labs but seldom reach for them. The True Match SB is so sheer, evens out my tone and looks like skin. I mix a lighter shade with my face shade as concealer under my eyes on days when I don’t need much concealing and it blends out seamlessly. Again, just looks like skin. I have the NYX Wonderstick in Universal Light as it warms up my complexion a touch, where Fair looks a bit corpse-ish on my very light skin. I squished the end of mine too when I forgot to twist it back down. Ha! Anyway… love the fresh, no makeup look! Thank you for all the tips.
Thank you, I love hearing all the great feedback here - we get to learn what's really working! I will try the reformulated L'Oreal for sure! All the best to you! 😘
Agreed , I feel prepping my skin is important, and even no make up look , if going outside important to have a bit of spf, and sheerer type primer with vit c and e and spf 30...Thank you You are Beautiful 💕
Hi Kerry Lou! I love your videos. Life’s been so very hectic lately and taking minute to watch your videos is such a nice break. Thank you! Have you ever tried BOOM cosmetics? I think you would simply love them on your no makeup days. I actually wear BOOM on light makeup days as well as dressing up. It’s all natural and very good for our skin. Many thanks again for brightening my day! 🤗💕
It's more make up than I expected but you look beautiful with and without the no makeup look. The big difference is you look more polished. I really appreciate that you went for more affordable products. I will give some a try. I'd like to look more polished when I have to go to work.
Thanks so much! I do feel that as our skin improves with good skincare, we need less skin makeup. You could always mix your foundation with a little moisturizer or primer, and when you run out of your current foundation, get one like Glossier Perfecting Skin Tint, it's very light textured. rstyle.me/+CCh0dMlI170Qr4CHBgcMrA
I’m happy to see elf HD powder in your routine! Sometimes I just use their pink blurring primer and some hd powder in the T zone, sunglasses and a lip gloss on a hot summer day 😎
I also love Nudestix Nudies Cream Blush All-Over-Face Color. The stick formula makes it super quick, easy and non-messy to apply color to the cheeks. Can also be used for the lips.
I just stumbled across your channel this morning, and I have to say, I just subscribed because I can’t help but think you’re too cute!!!! ❤❤ Love the way you speak !
Dear Kerry Lou, thanks a lot for this great tutorial. It is easy and looks good. You are also a great teacher, so encouraging! I should like to make a request. You have so beautiful hands - could you do a tutorial on hand care and/or nail polish? My hands age faster than my face... Much Love from Germany, Lorenza
Thanks so much 😊 I have done some videos on hands, but I am due to do another one, as some things have changed, I've added some ideas etc. I really appreciate your suggestion, thank you!
Love your videos! If I could make a suggestion. If you move your placement of your contour and blush up just a little it will give you a nice lift. I love that Colorpop pallet.
Thank you - I do see that some people are saying to do that on RU-vid - but one size does not fit all. You must consider the shape of the whole face. I have a oval/rectangle shaped face, so if I were to do that my face would look narrower and longer than it is - I need to retain the width of my cheekbones.
I usually use the Loreal Age Perfect concealer because it has more coverage than the Nyx Bare with me, but I have that one too. Ill give it a try again
I love the natural look. During Covid lock down I quit wearing makeup. I'm 69 and I no longer like the feel of makeup. It's funny because before you wouldn't catch me out without my face on! I recently bought Neutrogena Hydroboost hydrating tint and love it. I have a list of all you talked about and will be trying them. I'm not able to wear eye makeup or mascara because my eyelids swell and itch. I keep trying products and get the same results. I can't wait to try the Milani tint and the NYX concealer and wonder stick. Wish me luck. I really need to wear something on my eyes. I feel naked without eye products. Thanks for the video.
Glad you liked this video Elaine, let me know how you like the concealer. I do think that we're getting used to seeing each other with less makeup on, so it looks kind of odd to see someone with a full face of makeup, more so during the day! Thanks for the Neutrogena tip!
