I love love love when makeup artists don’t edit out the bloopers. Everyone makes mistakes. People new to makeup and even people who have been doing makeup for years but still struggle, need to see that not everyone is perfect at it. We all struggle with poking ourselves with mascara, primers don’t set properly, eyeshadows sometimes don’t cooperate. I hate seeing videos where you can see someone didn’t blend well, then in the next shot it’s absolutely flawless. Like I want to see THAT process. Walk me through the troubleshoot you do to fix something! That’s how we learn. I love you so much for exemplifying this!!!
Get the dupe revolution pro day and night palette. I have that and I swear the blue in that palette is exactly the same. In fact all the shades looks so similar to this Pat McGrath one and it costs £12 in UK. Worth every penny
I have been a watcher of beauty RU-vid for years but why is this the first channel I have come to where I feel like I’m learning techniques rather than just being told to buy products???
Beautifully done - it’s nice to see the “normal” ladies aren’t the only ones who struggle- I was trying to use a new palette the other day. It looked awful until I was done 🤣.... love y!! Xo Mandi 🥰
i dont know why i never get bored watching your videos. Most youtubers have bg music to keep the viewers entertained but you, YOUR videos are quiet(no bg music) but i just never get bored.
As far as that primer I call that "the new product effect." It's like that hope that a new product is going to change EVERYTHING. It can sometimes carry a product through to where you think it's a miracle , but then the second (or third or fourth) time you use it you are finally seeing it for what it really is. I think it's maybe the same kind of thing that makes "the placebo effect" and "love at first sight" a thing. Either way the look came out glorious anyway!
Hands down, BEST BLUE EYE LOOK EVERRRRRRRR!!!!!! Girl, your talent just takes it to the stratosphere!!!! I love your videos..... And, you aren't a ball of negative energy!! I laugh WITH you. You bring me joy!!! And wicked awesome makeup/skincare!✌💚🙏
She said "all I am is negative energy"😂😂😂 I love you Alex you're always so unapologetically yourself. Love, love, LOVE this look! Please do a look with Mothership II, I'm thinking of adding that one to my collection next and would love to see what you do with Blitz Emerald🙌🏽
I agree she's so funny I loved when she said "all I am is negative energy"😁😂 because she brakes one dish in the dish washer. I've done that before I broke a plate putting it in the cabinet hey it happens. It not bad energy at all it happens. I so like this girl and her voice is awesome!!!😊
I love it when you say "popped on the..." it's such a British phrase and I love hearing an American say it. Love this look, that blue is amazing! Hi from the UK 🇬🇧
I dont mind the mishaps, thats real life. I found a blue close to that in a wet n wild palette, Stop Playing Safe, its one of their ten pan palettes. Gonna try this look. Not that I'm going anywhere. Except to work in the yard.
I love how your eye color picks up on the different shadow shades you use and they just really pop and look so ethereal ❤️you have the most gorgeous eye shape and color .. you blow me away with your techniques
I really appreciate the way you zoom in on your face. This way we can see clearly how you make yourself even prettier and replicate your steps. thank you
I love that you are just unapologetically yourself. Also, how many people can trip up on a video and still bang out a gorgeous Pat McGrath Eye look. Please don’t stop recording your negative vibes either!
This is the REALEST makeup tutorial I've seen on RU-vid and if this is you're negative energy which is soooooooo creative I think we all need this kind of negative energy.... It's such a fresh change to see that a pro messes up as much as I do as a novice ✌
Sayuri Jackson there is the similar blue eyeshadow in the makeup revolution galaxy palette, it also has other bomb shadows so if you want something on the affordable side i recommend that one, it’s very pigmented :)
Most of the really well known beauty gurus have nothing on your skill and articulation. Your videos are gold for people, both still learning and experienced.
I cannot believe you're self taught...you are so inspiring...i have an art background and love seeing other people wear and apply makeup WELL but never try on myself, even though I have so many tools and nice products...i need to stop being so apprehensive and just go FOR IT! Since watching you, I've learned that I have heart shaped face(wasn't sure before), olive skin with prominent yet deep set eyes with hella natural creasing on the lower lashline so its hard for me to like colors on my eyes/face, feels like I'm drawing attention to my least fav part of my face...i guess I gotta try everything until I find something signature or what could work for me... i love how you work with your fine lines by blowing out your Smokey eye...bloody genius...i love you and your channel deeply, please never leave us!
So I have been searching for someone who had similar features as I do to really up my makeup game. I've spent years on here trying to figure out how to do makeup that flatters my features. Then yesterday, I stumble upon your excellent videos! The more you explain makeup application, the easier it seems to be for me! Thank you! I have a heart shaped face, green deep set eyes and under eyes. I've struggled to find someone that I can actually learn from! Thank you!!
You are one of the very verrry veryyyyyy few..who shows the actual real time ..how to deal with any anomaly cause by primer or shadow..I am amazed and obviously huge huge respect for you...
Alex, I love you; I was debating on getting this palette today and here you are with a tutorial for it! Yep, I'm getting it. I also wanted to say that the looks that you do are always so beautiful and inspiring.
Alexandra Anele Seriously I am with Naomi On this (meaning that I fkn love ur girl). You’re the coolest thang since sliced bread! 🤣 I only found your channel by accident like two weeks ago because I was checking out the Pat McGrath mothership palettes and considering buying them or one of them .....let’s be honest with that price tag it’s gonna have to be one at a time👀🥴. But they are the most beautiful shimmers I have ever seen in any pallet and all of them are stunning in their own special way. I love the dual chromes they’re just incredible....But anyway ...you , I found completely by accident and you are officially my favorite make up artist on RU-vid (sorry uncle Jeffree mama’s cheatin) 🥴 I just love how you keep it absolutely real and your hella funny! You would be one of the people that I would want at my ideal “fantasy” dinner party. I don’t know if people still do that but I have like a list of people who I would want to have as guests at a dinner party that I think would make it an insanely cool time. I would definitely love to see some more looks with the Pat McGrath. Also... if you can help a girl out ...I have gray/blue eyes And cool ash blonde hair. I would say my skin is between cool and neutral. Which one of the mothership palettes would you recommend that I get for my complexion?
Saw this on IG and thought it was GORGEOUS! Love that you have a video to go with it. Also - that "I'm the eye in the Pat McGrath looks, it's no biggie" thing... girl, your eye is famous af! It's what brought me to your channel! You're the makeup artist who creates some of the most recognizable makeup art online. Don't feel uncomfortable talking about it. You OWN that shit! YOU are bomb as fuck! I'm in awe of your talent and I feel like I speak for most of the people viewing this video. 😘😘😘
So you are the talented genius behind all the mesmerizing Pat McGrath eye looks!! I’ve been OBSESSED with these looks. Thank you for sharing your talent and techniques!
This palette is giving me those bold vibes and when i see u making your eyeshadow i get inspired but once i have this kind of palettes on my hands i end up with the same neutral look lol.
I swear I have the SAME PROBLEM! Ugh! She is so damn good it’s ridiculous. Wish I had her as a bestie. She would be sick of me real soon of being like please, would you just maybe...... do my makeup? For the 30th Time now? Please.
Yessss!!!!! I love that look! But most importantly thank you! For sharing your struggles with contacts and creasing. I feel like Someone understands. 🥰
I love your tutorials... you are so much fun to watch... can you please keep showing us different looks with the Pat McGrath Palettes... thank you soooo much for this look.. 💙🖤💙🖤
It soo comforting that you said "eyeshadow stuck in my eyeball" as it happens to me ALL the time and always wondered, what am I doing wrong. Thank you! 🙏🥰
Never a dull moment with u! I jst love watching ur tutorials... the "negative" energy, a bit of clumsiness, the swearing & all! Sets ur videos apart fr all the other boring tutorials! 💕
Just came across your channel for the first time just now, as this video came up in my recommendations! I just have to say that I absolutely love how you talk through your look and i love your voice and personality! ❤️
I just figured it out. I’ve been binge watching your videos, not knowing what it is that I’m so drawn by... but I’ve got it now. You’re very artistic, the way you think, and express yourself, you draw the viewer into your world. A little like K Stew when she explains things....
I live for your tutorials! You are just the best at application and explaining what you're doing and why. If everyone could watch you, the world would be a much more beautiful place. Thank you!! :)
Loving your new eyebrow style! 🔥🔥🔥Also side note *I have purchased SOO many products over the past week just based on your reviews, tutorials, and honesty! Don’t ever stop! You’re such an inspiration!!!
This is the only PMG palette I have so I'm all for seeing more looks from it! Even if you don't use it again, your application tips are fantastic. Thank you! 😊
I have been binge watching thanks to Covid and LOVE this narration and her beauty. I am super old but have loved makeup my whole life. She inspired me to try the Fox Eye...not successfully I am afraid.
i love watching your videos because you're relatable, funny AF, you cuss like me, and so freaking talented! I also appreciate how close you get to the camera. so many youtubers don't get close enough! THANK YOU! also, just a tip- when i get mascara somewhere i don't want it, i use a spoolie to sort of scrape it off once it's dry. works like a charm!
This is about the fifth time I’ve watched this look. I’m pure obsessed 😆 I’m going to try recreate it (again 😐) today. I don’t think I’m daring enough with the lower lash line. You absolutely rock 🙌🏻😍
This eye look is stunning! Your very talented!! I wouldn’t worry about under eye wrinkles it’s a natural part of aging and coming into yourself! I literally color in the lines and most people if they are human have them girl and from what I hear people want to watch people with real skin!
Girl I need my tools back too! Hate not having my claws/pinchers/scratchers! I'd love to see you do more Pat looks cause they always turn out fly af! I'm also known for my negative energy so I feel you on that!
It might have been a little messy for you on the way but this turned out to be the best blue eyeshadow look I have ever seen, truly, and I have seen a lot of them because I think it's such a great look but really the hardest to get right with blending and everything when you want it to be just about the blue. I'm going to studdy this to pieces! Thank you
Hi Alex: I know you had a bit of a struggle doing this video but, sis you KILLED it. That shadow is stunnnnning!!! And that’s on PERIOD! Thank you for your content and not giving up when some would have. Please do more Pat McGrath makeup videos. I am 66 and I wish I could wear eye shadows the color you used in this video. I am sure having your beautiful eye color helps. Love you!!! Denise D
Haha i love you. You are the opposite of all the annoying af youtubers. This relaxes me. And is so me when you said “sick of the sound of my own voice” literally why I can’t make vids lol
Your soooo freakin beautiful you can pull off anything! I don’t think I can wear this, but came out gorgeous- extremely talented. I also appreciate you not editing out your errors, because we learn how to fix our errors when we freak out.
