This was my first time to your channel. I'm 67 and have always worn makeup, primarily because I have fair skin and blue eyes. Without makeup, people would ask if I was sick, sad or tired. Not good for self-esteem. I like the way you wore your makup lightly and will try your tips to soften my everyday/work look. Thanks for sharing your suggestions.😊
Thank you so much for commenting. That question is so irritating - it is like someone yelling that you look bad. SMH! I love blue eyes....mine are green and I always wanted blue. Hugs, KC
Love the suggestions today!😊 I have struggled with eye shadow placement for a while. Started wearing makeup when I was 60 years old.(now 68). Keep the great tips coming!
I totally agree with your pet peeve of influencers who are constantly having to move hair out of the way for makeup application. Not sure why they don’t just band it back. Also the influencers who are constantly looking at themselves in the camera and can’t keep their hands off their hair!!! Enjoyed the video. I think an even bigger crime than some of these mistakes is older women I see without a stitch of makeup, as if saying, “I’ve given up”. I wear makeup every day; camping, gardening, staying home. It’s not about impressing anyone, it’s about feeling good about myself. I have fun testing new makeups.
Amen, Amen, Amen! Giving up is not in the cards!!! I am going down with a fight in me and making myself feel better each and everyday. Now there are days when I give my skin a break from makeup (since I put it on and take it off several times a day) but that is different than just throwing in the towel. Hugs, KC
I have dismissed some channels to follow for the same reason you stated, their hair. I can't stand it either. It's one thing to be proud of your lockes. But get it out of the way when you do makeup for us. Thank you!!! 🫶
Drives me crazy as well...I can't imagine putting my makeup on with my hair down in my face and it's so distracting to watch someone demonstrating makeup techniques that way completely distracts me from what they're trying to show.
Very helpful. I’m 65 and went years make up free. But after experiencing significant hair loss and wearing wigs, an old, tired face didn’t go with new,pretty hair. So I’ve started wearing makeup again and am a big believer in ‘less is more’. This has been very helpful. My goal is to look healthy, not painted for my everyday appearance. 😊
I nursed for all my young years, too busy working shifts and then cleaning house and caring for kids.... then I had a more office type job in the last years of working, but I wore minimal make-up (mascara and a light lipstick)... but I've retired and finally have time to enjoy a bit of time on myself (sadly, it's harder now the skin is not the fresh unlined springy skin it was back then) so it's good to get some tips
It is on my list of videos to do in the future. I did one that you may enjoy. th-cam.com/video/M66vJ3ksxj8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=OhynwjyLxlx3IyNG Thank you for watching and leaving a comment. It means so much. Hugs, KC
Yes, you can really see the difference. I think the 2 biggest things, 1, not using Black Eye Liner, it does make the eyes look small and old...2, the blush high on the cheeks, bringing the colour up and keeping the face fresh makes such a difference..... i also found that colouring in the brows makes such a difference to frame and accent the eyes....really defines the face. A great learning tool... thanks for your post. 😊❤
Wow, I love the softer side and how it looks more lifted. You're beautiful thanks for the pointers. At 55, I'm still learning how to do my brows. It's the one area I always avoided for some reason.
A beautiful, soft, age defying look. So flattering! I see so many middle aged women still creating the heavy look of the 80's/90's, especially for their eyes, and it ages them terribly. This is a really good comparison lesson. Great tip for the neutral liner with strong lip colour, I'll try that one!
Hey there - thank you so much. It means a lot to me that you commented. Yes, unfortunately they think it is still "in" and what they don't realize is how much it ages them. I'll be showing other things down the road......so keep tuning in. Hugs, KC
I'm so happy that I just found your channel! I agree 100% with your makeup application. I'm turning 76 in one month and love makeup and apply it everyday. I have found that less is more and how you apply it make such a big difference. I look forward to watching more of your videos!
Hi Susan and welcome. I love that you are loving your makeup at 76 - I plan to be the same way. My Mom is in her 80's and applies her makeup every single day.. I am glad you found the channel - we are growing here and it means so much that you are here. Hugs, KC
That is so kind of you. I do love to "glitz" up every now and again but realized that day to day I need a bit less to keep things looking a tad bit younger. Hugs, KC
YES!! thank you for mentioning that. It's my pet peeve, too. I'm so glad when content creators secure their hair, it makes their content so much better to watch.
Haven't finished watching this video yet but just love you straight away because you're wearing your lines with pride. No fillers, no botox. You're beautiful! I'm 72 and am wearing less makeup than I used to. I don't like seeing those big black panda eyes on older women. Thank you for this. I'll give it a go even though i don't usually wear eyeshadow anymore. xx Love from Australia
Hi there! TBH, I do get a little botox a couple of times a year and i've had filler in the lines around my mouth (I was so tired of people accusing me of being a smoker). Like I said, I go very conservative and my Nurse Practitioner knows I do not want to look overdone. Just soften the mouth area a bit. However, I am 100% in agreement for those that do not want to go that route and respect them as well. I love that you commented. Hugs, KC
@@kalondiacasey Thats ok too. I''d probably give it a go too if I could afford it but the thought of spending my retirement funding on botox etc stops me - as well as the fact that it would be an ongoing commitment. I'll just have to keep kidding myself that I look fine and rejoice in the fact non-one believes me when i tell them my age. Having said that, I could always change my mind but in the meantime, I'll try some different looks with makeup etc. I probably can't buy any of the products in your links because I'm in Australia it usually costs a lot to buy from the US due to the dollar plus the postage unless they're on Amazon Prime I can sometimes get stuff at a good price and free international postage.
I enjoyed your demonstration. I was guilty today of using the wrong side and knew it immediately but it was too late. The more I blended, the brighter green my eye looked. Thanks for this tip.
I am an artist but not with makeup. You have shown me the use of bright highlights to draw the eye in a way to hide shadows and lines. Fantastic! Now I know why I never got good results. Thank you so much ❤
My first time on your channel. I am 69 and wear almost no makeup. I have gone from “all the makeup” from the ‘80’s to a no-makeup look but like to do a little something for going out. This video was perfect! Thank you for the tutorial!
Susan, I love that and welcome. I also love a makeup/no makeup look on my "free days" when I am not in front of the camera. I am so glad you are here and loved your comment. Hugs, KC
Haha I took some notes bc I’m a Business Analyst. I can’t wait to try the concealer cleanup around the edges of the lip! I wore a red lip earlier this week and now I realize why I wasn’t entirely happy with it. I’m 54, fyi. After undergoing chemo when I was 45, I was thrown into medical menopause overnight. I still have to adapt my routines to look my best. THANK YOU ❤
Bless you - that medical menopause is horrible. I hate this for you but you sound like you are getting a handle on it. I love a good red lipstick but it is hard to wear. Hugs, KC
Nice job on both sides. I liked both equally well until the red lipstick went on. Then I preferred the "younger" and the "older" side definitely showed. However, I'd say that both were nice looks...one for more evening and one for more day. Glad for this video to show us the difference and to use a lighter hand during the day! Thank you!!!
Hey there! Yes, you are correct. That red lipstick is harsh. Here is what I always say, Bold Eye, Neutral Lip! Neutral Lip, Go Bold on the eyes....it's a great balance. Hugs, KC
I was thinking the same. Both sides were good until the red lipstick was applied. The darker eye is great for a more evening look but with a lighter lipstick. The lighter side is for any time of the day. Very attractive lady.
I have started doing all these hints except the lashes and the concealer around my lips. My lip area is my most troublesome so I will be doing that! And if my lashes get any thinner I may try the clusters. I was pleased to see that I'm doing most things right on this 73 year old face.
I realize this video is two months old and you may not see my comment, but I feel compelled to leave one regardless. I just discovered your channel a couple of days ago while searching for info about GLP1 medication but find your channel is so much more! I’ve enjoyed watching several of your older videos and am now a subscriber. I can’t tell you how refreshing it is to see an older woman doing makeup application on a face that looks realistic, more like my own with wrinkles and fine lines. I’m very tired of many YT make up artists over 60 who are full of Botox and fillers and multiple procedures, giving us unrealistic expectations, if only I follow their skin care and make up advice. 😮 Many are not even honest about it. I will continue to view your videos and look forward to new ones as you put new content out put new content out. Thank you Kalondia!
Hello there. Needless to say I try to answer all comments - I am glad you found my channel and I hope you continue to watch. I'm transparent....I do botox and filler but it is not a lot. I haven't had a touch up in probably 8 months. Hugs, KC
39 (almost 40) here, I am a chronic eyeliner and mascara wearer, unfortunately like the (right side looking at it). Im going to take your tips and apply them. Not a huge fan of tightlining as I feel it just rubs off on my eyeball, but Ill give it a shot. I hope to be a stylish older woman some day.
Thank you for your video. Yes a much more natural look on the left. I struggle with all the things you mentioned for the heavy side. I don’t wear make up everyday but I will try your tips for church. My son is getting married so I have bought the velour full wispy lashes. Normally I wouldn’t wear false eyelashes. I still haven’t tried wearing them yet.
Hi Lori, are you having your makeup done for the wedding? If so, you might want to do a practice run with the artist. If not, I would recommend doing your makeup 2-3x and photographing it to see what you love, might want to tweak etc.. Yes, False lashes are perfect for those events. I wish I could see pictures. Enjoy. Hugs, KC
I just turned 69. I actually don't look my age, but I've ever liked alot of makeup on my face. Many suggestions you have i already do. My issue is my eyebrows. They are very sparce from cancer treatment. I appreciate the tips on that. I don't use concealer, but i have a small dark blue area by my eyes and nose. I cant seem to find the right color. Im light with a pink undertone. I also like the concealer around the outer lip to clean it up! Great tutorial!
I enjoyed your video! I already put into my daily makeup, a lot of the things you mentioned, I am turning 75 in a few days. The biggest problem for me is that I overplucked my eyebrows back in the day and now I am very sparse there. My eyebrows are dark and it's hard to camouflage that look! I agree, less IS more! I just found your channel. Thank You!
Thank you so much for the comment - it means so much to me. Hugs, KC PS - those over plucked eye brows are so hard to work with. have you tried a stencil?
Truly enjoyed this video, as i ALWAYS learn something new from you. The difference between both sides is remarkable I have the same pet peeve as you do with pulling the hair back. My next peeve is when they play the background music so loud that it's hard to focus on their words ... which is why I'm grateful you turn volumn down when you speak (I swear I have ADHD in my old age) ❤😊
Stacy, I hear you loud and clear (no pun intended). I don't know why it bothers me so much but the hair in the face is distracting. I love having that low music in the background and my editor really does a great job keeping it at the right level. hugs, kC
I liked the lift you did on the eyes by using less shadow, not blasting your brows.by making them darker, and aiming the tail downward. I think using little powder on your face, and also using a different color, and lighter color of eyeliner on your lower lash line. I Your blush placement loomed much bettef, and surprised me how much it gave you a face lift. I never thought about using a neutral lip liner with red, or using a little concealed around my lips! I !ike everything you did on the right side of your face, and yes it does look lifted.I'm 61, everyone says I look 50, and I'm going to try this lifted look, and maybe it will take a few more years off of me! 😊 I was definitely doing a few now I'd with shadiw, powder, and lip linef. Thank you for posting this video, it's going to help me a lot!
Hello there and thank you for commenting. I loved reading what you wrote. I am glad you are here and can't wait to continue to grow and get to know you. Hugs, KC
I like the sugestion of placing the top eyelinr in the top waterline, and not above the lashes. I will try this, although for a more evening going out look, I'd probably line above the lashes and do the upper waterline.
Wow! I do the heavy side and never realized I look like that. Unreal.. I just turn 70 yrs of age. Thank you soo much. Really Nancy at Tibby Island, ga.
Very much liked your tutorial. So much agree with the eye make up and blush. The dark shadow draws the eye down and I have been guilty. So thank you so much.
I had to chuckle when you mentioned your pet peeve. I agree 100%. I enjoyed your tips, thank you! I was wondering if you could briefly cover your method of brush cleaning when you review your favorite brushes, please?
Thank you - I will have to do that in another video but I really like to use Tea Tree Soap from a company called FARMASi but a lot of people use Dawn Dishwashing Liquid. Thank you for commenting. Hugs, KC
I'm a few decades younger, but I have always learned true wisdom from those older that I. Your video was recommended by TH-cam and I clicked it. All though I can wear heavy makeup, your skin and hair color are close to mine. I'm a "toe head" (a person with very light blond hair, often so light that it's almost white) and I had to know what you were using on your brows! So obviously I loved the brow products and lining the lips after lip liner and lipstick. I found your entire video interesting, the only time I wear heavy makeup is for photos. I'm glad I clicked on your video! Much love!🕊
Thank you for commenting and I am glad you found my channel. It means so much to me when someone takes the time to leave a comment....espeically one as sweet as yours. Thank you for being there. KC
Wonderful and such a helpful video. I am a bit older than you and always looking in the mirror when I do my makeup and wondering if what I am doing is just too much. I needed the help with the brows, as I feel mine turn down on the outside edge and I can clearly see where it draws my face down. Great tips! Thank you.
Hi Sandra, thank you so much for commenting. Yes, the mirror is so helpful and what is even more helpful is the mirror in our cars - now that mirror always tells us the truth. Lol! I'm sure you do an amazing job and I really appreciate you commenting. It means so much. Hugs, KC
I use the method you used on your right eye (my viewing left). Eyes look so much larger. Still use liner or a darker shadow at the lash root, but hate under eye liner. Closes the eye in
Wow, what a stroke of luck I came across your channel. A truly great video. I am 63 too and have been enjoying trying a more natural look, like your 'good' side of makeup. It was so good to have your affirmation that I am doing most things correctly! Your good side looks just beautiful. I am wondering if i may get the confidence to try the cluster lashes. Thanks so much, I have thoroughly enjoyed this video and have subscribed - from NZ
Hello Annie, thank you for your sweet comment. Letting you in on a little secret - tomorrow's video shows how I apply the cluster lashes. :) So glad you are here and loved the video. Can't wait to continue growing this channel and building this lovely community for mature women. Hugs, KC
Wow wow wow!! Excellent video Kalondia!! Thank you!!! 😊 I am in my 50's, with fair skin blue eyes and a few lines starting to appear especially around my lip line. I've been wondering where I'm going wrong with my make up application, to the point I stopped using make up (except for special occasions). The thing for me is how you put on the foundation with a brush, I never thought of that, but it makes so much difference🤯!! I have most of the make up that you are using in the video, but I've been putting it on wrong, so it sits in my lines. I thought it was the product as I used to use a very different type of foundation (it wasn't a liquid, kind of like a soft lipstick consistency) and I knew that it no longer worked on my skin especially around my eyes. I have good lashes and I'm blonde so I use a brown mascara without lining my eyes, another mistake! I also was lining my lips with the same colour as my lipstick (Asia by Rimmel) I have a nude lip liner / concealer, so will try it. I also don't line my brows very often as they are very light brown and quite well defined, but I do have a brow pencil/ brush in the right colour, I will start using it now! Thank you so much!!🤗 Caroline
Hi Carolina, Wow....what a comment and I love it. It makes me so happy that you enjoyed and learned a lot from the video. Yes, those pesky lines around our lips - I have filler in mine and will probably have to redo them in 6 months. I just hate being asked if was a smoker - nope! I am addicted to straws and it is also hereditary. More videos to come and I hope to hear from you soon. Hugs, KC
Super video! Luv your techniques! And you are so right! Have a close friend who has that blackish ( permanent) under eye liner. I can’t agree that it ages you more! Lipstick not crazy about. But it’s a tutorial ! Thanks! 👏🏻👏🏻
Susan, yes trying to prove a point (it wasn't my fav either). That black eyeliner comes back to haunt us that is for sure. Thanks for commenting - it means so much to me. Hugs, KC
Wow, great video! I am surprised by just the little adjustments that made such a difference. Your right side was so soft and subtle whereas the other side had me thinking "Where's the circus"! In my opinion, when you added the red lipstick it instantly popped out all the lines around your lips like anyone edging 40 is starting to get, too garish. I see women wearing bright red matte lipstick and it does the same as it's so unforgiving if your hand isn't steady all the while. Looking forward to your next video!....
GM. Thank you so much. Yes, if you wear a red lipstick it has to be long lasting and the lips must be lined and then let's clean up those edges. I am so glad you are here - video coming Sunday! Hugs, KC
Hi Chrissy, thank you for commenting. It sounds like you go to a great technician that doesn't put them on thick like we see on younger gals. Wispy sounds amazing! I'm so glad you are here. Hugs, KC
Love the softer side! I have the same pet peeve, runs me nuts! Do you have any suggestions on how to keep the eyeshadow you line on the bottom lash from tranferring into wrinkles? I dont even tight line or use anything on the lower lashes because it all transfers. I have spent a fortune on different eyeliners
@kalondiacasey the eyeshadow I line bottom lash line with goes into wrinkles. When I tight line upper lash line it migrated to my undereye. Maybe a video idea 😂
Oh yes I always put my head band on as soon as I begin washing my face and it stays on through the moisturizing and make up process. Only comes of f when I'm ready to curl my hair(which is always my last step before heading out the door).
I love a good neutral lip and have so many favorites. Lip Liner Where Ever Walnut from Make Up Forever & Makeup By Mario Midtown Lipstick. Such a beautiful combo!!!! Hugs! KC
Sally, I wish you had asked me if I had work done and I would have gladly told you the truth, which is NO! I have not had cosmetic surgery on my face and these are my real eyelids. If I have anything done to my face, I talk about it openly and don't hide it. KC

Thank you Joni! I am so happy you are here and watching. Miss you, my friend. Hugs! KC
YES!! thank you for mentioning that. It's my pet peeve, too. I'm so glad when content creators secure their hair, it makes their content so much better to watch.
Exactly!! Thank you so much for commenting. Hugs, KC
I learned so much from watching this video and I've worn makeup almost every day for lots of years. Love your tips. Can't wait for more. ❤
Susan, thank you. We all continue to learn - even me. I love sharing with you all. Hugs, KC
You are spot on.I agree less is more good job
Thank you so much. Hugs, KC
I am 78 ,I totally agree with everything you've done, thanks.
Hello and thank you for commenting. It means so much to me. New video coming tomorrow. Hugs, KC
Your video was spot on. The lighter side was perfect. Also thanks for keeping it shorter. Will subscribe.
Thank you so much. Hugs, KC
Haven't finished watching this video yet but just love you straight away because you're wearing your lines with pride. No fillers, no botox. You're beautiful! I'm 72 and am wearing less makeup than I used to. I don't like seeing those big black panda eyes on older women. Thank you for this. I'll give it a go even though i don't usually wear eyeshadow anymore. xx Love from Australia
Hi there! TBH, I do get a little botox a couple of times a year and i've had filler in the lines around my mouth (I was so tired of people accusing me of being a smoker). Like I said, I go very conservative and my Nurse Practitioner knows I do not want to look overdone. Just soften the mouth area a bit. However, I am 100% in agreement for those that do not want to go that route and respect them as well. I love that you commented. Hugs, KC
@@kalondiacasey Thats ok too. I''d probably give it a go too if I could afford it but the thought of spending my retirement funding on botox etc stops me - as well as the fact that it would be an ongoing commitment. I'll just have to keep kidding myself that I look fine and rejoice in the fact non-one believes me when i tell them my age. Having said that, I could always change my mind but in the meantime, I'll try some different looks with makeup etc. I probably can't buy any of the products in your links because I'm in Australia it usually costs a lot to buy from the US due to the dollar plus the postage unless they're on Amazon Prime I can sometimes get stuff at a good price and free international postage.
I enjoyed your demonstration. I was guilty today of using the wrong side and knew it immediately but it was too late. The more I blended, the brighter green my eye looked. Thanks for this tip.
You are so welcome and it's baby steps!!!! Hugs KC
Omg this is such a beautiful glam!!! 😍💜
Thank you so much!!
Very nice video showing the contrasts between products, application, and usage.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching!
Loved the video, learned a lot. I would love a tutorial on applying the cluster lashes.
Judy, I will do a video on lashes!!!! Thank you for asking. Hugs, KC xo
You did a great job explaining everything!!! Less is more!
Thank you so much! So glad you are here, Sherry. Hugs! KC
I am an artist but not with makeup. You have shown me the use of bright highlights to draw the eye in a way to hide shadows and lines. Fantastic! Now I know why I never got good results. Thank you so much ❤
GM and what a lovely comment. I am so glad I could help an artist as that is a huge compliment. Let me know how this all works out for you. Hugs, KC
I think it was great I learned things thanks. I am so use to the eye liner under the eye! happy holidays
Thank you so much. Happy Holidays to you and yours. Hugs, KC
Great demonstration
Thank you!!!! Hugs, KC
My first time on your channel. I am 69 and wear almost no makeup. I have gone from “all the makeup” from the ‘80’s to a no-makeup look but like to do a little something for going out. This video was perfect! Thank you for the tutorial!
Susan, I love that and welcome. I also love a makeup/no makeup look on my "free days" when I am not in front of the camera. I am so glad you are here and loved your comment. Hugs, KC
Love the look great advice
Thank you so much. Hugs, KC
I like makeup that adds color. Your make up looked great on both sides of your face.
Jenny, thank you so much. Hugs, KC
Haha I took some notes bc I’m a Business Analyst. I can’t wait to try the concealer cleanup around the edges of the lip! I wore a red lip earlier this week and now I realize why I wasn’t entirely happy with it. I’m 54, fyi. After undergoing chemo when I was 45, I was thrown into medical menopause overnight. I still have to adapt my routines to look my best. THANK YOU ❤
Bless you - that medical menopause is horrible. I hate this for you but you sound like you are getting a handle on it. I love a good red lipstick but it is hard to wear. Hugs, KC
Nice job on both sides. I liked both equally well until the red lipstick went on. Then I preferred the "younger" and the "older" side definitely showed. However, I'd say that both were nice looks...one for more evening and one for more day. Glad for this video to show us the difference and to use a lighter hand during the day! Thank you!!!
Hey there! Yes, you are correct. That red lipstick is harsh. Here is what I always say, Bold Eye, Neutral Lip! Neutral Lip, Go Bold on the eyes....it's a great balance. Hugs, KC
I was thinking the same. Both sides were good until the red lipstick was applied. The darker eye is great for a more evening look but with a lighter lipstick. The lighter side is for any time of the day. Very attractive lady.
I have started doing all these hints except the lashes and the concealer around my lips. My lip area is my most troublesome so I will be doing that! And if my lashes get any thinner I may try the clusters. I was pleased to see that I'm doing most things right on this 73 year old face.
That makes me so happy to read. Hugs, KC
I realize this video is two months old and you may not see my comment, but I feel compelled to leave one regardless. I just discovered your channel a couple of days ago while searching for info about GLP1 medication but find your channel is so much more! I’ve enjoyed watching several of your older videos and am now a subscriber. I can’t tell you how refreshing it is to see an older woman doing makeup application on a face that looks realistic, more like my own with wrinkles and fine lines. I’m very tired of many YT make up artists over 60 who are full of Botox and fillers and multiple procedures, giving us unrealistic expectations, if only I follow their skin care and make up advice. 😮 Many are not even honest about it. I will continue to view your videos and look forward to new ones as you put new content out put new content out.
Thank you Kalondia!
Hello there. Needless to say I try to answer all comments - I am glad you found my channel and I hope you continue to watch. I'm transparent....I do botox and filler but it is not a lot. I haven't had a touch up in probably 8 months. Hugs, KC
39 (almost 40) here, I am a chronic eyeliner and mascara wearer, unfortunately like the (right side looking at it). Im going to take your tips and apply them. Not a huge fan of tightlining as I feel it just rubs off on my eyeball, but Ill give it a shot. I hope to be a stylish older woman some day.
That is so sweet of you - thank you for chiming in because I love hearing from the younger women too! Good luck and let me know how it goes. Hugs, KC
This is my first time seeing your Chanel. Thank you so much for helping me to put my makeup on the right way.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hello there and welcome. I am so glad you are here. I can't wait to grow and share more with you all. Hugs, KC
I enjoyed it so much that I watched every minute of it! What an artist you are!
That is so kind....thank you for sharing with me. Hugs, KC
I’m going to try your eyeliner tip.
Woohoo. Let me know how it goes. xo
Thank you for your video. Yes a much more natural look on the left. I struggle with all the things you mentioned for the heavy side. I don’t wear make up everyday but I will try your tips for church. My son is getting married so I have bought the velour full wispy lashes. Normally I wouldn’t wear false eyelashes. I still haven’t tried wearing them yet.
Hi Lori, are you having your makeup done for the wedding? If so, you might want to do a practice run with the artist. If not, I would recommend doing your makeup 2-3x and photographing it to see what you love, might want to tweak etc.. Yes, False lashes are perfect for those events. I wish I could see pictures. Enjoy. Hugs, KC
I just turned 69. I actually don't look my age, but I've ever liked alot of makeup on my face. Many suggestions you have i already do. My issue is my eyebrows. They are very sparce from cancer treatment. I appreciate the tips on that. I don't use concealer, but i have a small dark blue area by my eyes and nose. I cant seem to find the right color. Im light with a pink undertone. I also like the concealer around the outer lip to clean it up! Great tutorial!
If you can find a flesh tone concealer stick to use over the blue that might be helpful. Thank you so much for commenting. Hugs, KC
@@kalondiacasey I'll try that, thank you
The darker side makes your eye look so much bigger which I like.. both sides look nice
Viven, I've heard that from other people as well. So interesting. I appreciate your comment so much. Hugs, KC
I enjoyed your video! I already put into my daily makeup, a lot of the things you mentioned, I am turning 75 in a few days. The biggest problem for me is that I overplucked my eyebrows back in the day and now I am very sparse there. My eyebrows are dark and it's hard to camouflage that look! I agree, less IS more! I just found your channel. Thank You!
Thank you so much for the comment - it means so much to me. Hugs, KC
PS - those over plucked eye brows are so hard to work with. have you tried a stencil?
Truly enjoyed this video, as i ALWAYS learn something new from you. The difference between both sides is remarkable I have the same pet peeve as you do with pulling the hair back. My next peeve is when they play the background music so loud that it's hard to focus on their words ... which is why I'm grateful you turn volumn down when you speak (I swear I have ADHD in my old age) ❤😊
Stacy, I hear you loud and clear (no pun intended). I don't know why it bothers me so much but the hair in the face is distracting. I love having that low music in the background and my editor really does a great job keeping it at the right level. hugs, kC
I am going to be 65 in January...I found this video very helpful!
Hi there and thank you so much. Hugs, KC
You are right. Looks gorgeous, love it ❤
Thank you! 🤗 I really appreciate your comment. Hugs, KC
It was so helpful to see the difference between the two sides. Going to practice tight lining tomorrow!
Barbara, please let me know how it goes. Hugs, KC
I love the eye shadow look. So soft and pretty!
Thank you so much. Hugs, KC
I liked the lift you did on the eyes by using less shadow, not blasting your brows.by making them darker, and aiming the tail downward. I think using little powder on your face, and also using a different color, and lighter color of eyeliner on your lower lash line. I Your blush placement loomed much bettef, and surprised me how much it gave you a face lift. I never thought about using a neutral lip liner with red, or using a little concealed around my lips! I !ike everything you did on the right side of your face, and yes it does look lifted.I'm 61, everyone says I look 50, and I'm going to try this lifted look, and maybe it will take a few more years off of me! 😊 I was definitely doing a few now I'd with shadiw, powder, and lip linef. Thank you for posting this video, it's going to help me a lot!
Hello there and thank you for commenting. I loved reading what you wrote. I am glad you are here and can't wait to continue to grow and get to know you. Hugs, KC
So helpful!!! Appreciate this video so much
Julana, thank you so much. Hugs, KC
this was a very educational lesson. I love what you do with eyes. looks great. thank you
Thank you so much. Hugs, KC
Totally agree!! I have learned less equal youth! Thank you!💗new subscriber 🥰
Hi! Thank you for letting me know and welcome to the community. Hugs, KC
I like the sugestion of placing the top eyelinr in the top waterline, and not above the lashes. I will try this, although for a more evening going out look, I'd probably line above the lashes and do the upper waterline.
Love that!!!! Thank you for sharing. Hugs, KC
Thank you - this helped me a lot!! I just need to remember that “less” is more younger!! That’s what I need.
Glad it was helpful! Debbie, thank you for commenting, it means a lot. Kc. :)
This was so interesting. I totally agree with your opinion. Thank you
Sandy, I am so glad you stopped and watched it and took the time to leave me a comment. It means so much to me. You are so welcome. Hugs, KC
Thanks for your sharing this helped me so much loved the right side of your face 🎉
You’re welcome 😊 So glad you are here. Hugs, KC
Very good tips! I am 62 and love make up.
Thank you so much. Hugs, KC
Thank you! Loved your comparison, I’m a new subscriber and look forward to seeing more. Anne🩷
Hello Anne (I hope I spelled that right). I am so glad you are here and enjoyed the video. Hugs, KC
Wow great information!
Thank you!!!!!!
I glad someone is doing this u nailed it 😊❤
Hi Jayce, thank you so much. Hugs, KC
I always enjoy your knowledge and application regarding mature makeup.
Thank you so much!!!! Hugs, KC
Wow! I do the heavy side and never realized I look like that. Unreal.. I just turn 70 yrs of age. Thank you soo much. Really Nancy at Tibby Island, ga.
Oh my goodness, thank you for commenting. I love this so much. I love Tiby Island!!! KC
Very much liked your tutorial. So much agree with the eye make up and blush. The dark shadow draws the eye down and I have been guilty. So thank you so much.
So glad it helped you, Penny. Thank you for leaving a comment. Hugs, KC
I love your show its teaching me alot ,thank you.im looking forward to watching your show about the makeup brushes thanks again from Oklahoma ❤
Hi Gigi, thank you so much. Hugs, KC
Fascinating and exceptionally helpful!
I'm so glad you liked it. Hugs, KC
Hi! So great getting advice on makeup from someone my same age 😊
Hi Sherry, thank you so much. So glad you are here. Hugs, KC
I am a 68-year-old woman and I appreciate your video.
Carol, thank you for letting me know. I appreciate you. Hugs, KC
I had to chuckle when you mentioned your pet peeve. I agree 100%. I enjoyed your tips, thank you! I was wondering if you could briefly cover your method of brush cleaning when you review your favorite brushes, please?
Thank you - I will have to do that in another video but I really like to use Tea Tree Soap from a company called FARMASi but a lot of people use Dawn Dishwashing Liquid. Thank you for commenting. Hugs, KC
Love the softer look. Ty
Glad you like it! Thank you for being here. Hugs, KC
Really enjoyed your video, thank you! 61 here blonde blue eyed petite woman hour.
Wonderful! Thank you for your comment! KC
This was great. Love the under eye tips and the blackened on the waterline. So helpful.
That is wonderful to hear. I am glad you are enjoying the channel! Hugs! KC
I think you are great, It looks like the past has been updated. Thanks, Sandra
Thank you so much. Hugs, KC
I love the idea of cream on the lids I'm going to do this too , your make up looks so good on you 😊
Thank you so much!! Hugs KC
You look fabulous
You are so sweet - thank you so much. Hugs, KC
Thank you so nice looks lovely very easy to follow
You are so welcome. Hugs, KC
I'm a few decades younger, but I have always learned true wisdom from those older that I. Your video was recommended by TH-cam and I clicked it. All though I can wear heavy makeup, your skin and hair color are close to mine. I'm a "toe head" (a person with very light blond hair, often so light that it's almost white) and I had to know what you were using on your brows! So obviously I loved the brow products and lining the lips after lip liner and lipstick. I found your entire video interesting, the only time I wear heavy makeup is for photos. I'm glad I clicked on your video! Much love!🕊
Thank you for commenting and I am glad you found my channel. It means so much to me when someone takes the time to leave a comment....espeically one as sweet as yours. Thank you for being there. KC
@@kalondiacasey My pleasure! Thank you for making such a great channel! I hope you have a wonderful week. Much love! 🕊
I can really see what you are saying! Thanks for sharing this! Beautiful!
You are so welcome
Great tips! Thanks❤
Thank you. Hugs, KC
Such a helpful video with some great advice that I will put to use on myself. Thank you!!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for being here! Hugs, KC
First time watching you. Thank you so much for sharing.
Hi Kathy (I'm assuming that is your name). Thank you for being here. Video coming on Sunday. Hugs, KC
Wonderful and such a helpful video. I am a bit older than you and always looking in the mirror when I do my makeup and wondering if what I am doing is just too much. I needed the help with the brows, as I feel mine turn down on the outside edge and I can clearly see where it draws my face down. Great tips! Thank you.
Hi Sandra, thank you so much for commenting. Yes, the mirror is so helpful and what is even more helpful is the mirror in our cars - now that mirror always tells us the truth. Lol! I'm sure you do an amazing job and I really appreciate you commenting. It means so much. Hugs, KC
I use the method you used on your right eye (my viewing left). Eyes look so much larger. Still use liner or a darker shadow at the lash root, but hate under eye liner. Closes the eye in
Hi Cheryl, thank you for the comment. Yes, that liner can close my small eyes off. Hugs, KC
Wow, what a stroke of luck I came across your channel. A truly great video. I am 63 too and have been enjoying trying a more natural look, like your 'good' side of makeup. It was so good to have your affirmation that I am doing most things correctly!
Your good side looks just beautiful.
I am wondering if i may get the confidence to try the cluster lashes.
Thanks so much, I have thoroughly enjoyed this video and have subscribed - from NZ
Hello Annie, thank you for your sweet comment. Letting you in on a little secret - tomorrow's video shows how I apply the cluster lashes. :) So glad you are here and loved the video. Can't wait to continue growing this channel and building this lovely community for mature women. Hugs, KC
Wow what a difference 😊
Thank you so much. Hugs, KC
Wow wow wow!! Excellent video Kalondia!! Thank you!!! 😊 I am in my 50's, with fair skin blue eyes and a few lines starting to appear especially around my lip line. I've been wondering where I'm going wrong with my make up application, to the point I stopped using make up (except for special occasions). The thing for me is how you put on the foundation with a brush, I never thought of that, but it makes so much difference🤯!! I have most of the make up that you are using in the video, but I've been putting it on wrong, so it sits in my lines. I thought it was the product as I used to use a very different type of foundation (it wasn't a liquid, kind of like a soft lipstick consistency) and I knew that it no longer worked on my skin especially around my eyes. I have good lashes and I'm blonde so I use a brown mascara without lining my eyes, another mistake! I also was lining my lips with the same colour as my lipstick (Asia by Rimmel) I have a nude lip liner / concealer, so will try it. I also don't line my brows very often as they are very light brown and quite well defined, but I do have a brow pencil/ brush in the right colour, I will start using it now! Thank you so much!!🤗 Caroline
Hi Carolina, Wow....what a comment and I love it. It makes me so happy that you enjoyed and learned a lot from the video. Yes, those pesky lines around our lips - I have filler in mine and will probably have to redo them in 6 months. I just hate being asked if was a smoker - nope! I am addicted to straws and it is also hereditary. More videos to come and I hope to hear from you soon. Hugs, KC
Really great advice
Thank you, Mary!!! Hugs, KC
Happy Birthday Your videos are very helpful and are great
Thank you! 😃
Super video! Luv your techniques! And you are so right! Have a close friend who has that blackish ( permanent) under eye liner. I can’t agree that it ages you more! Lipstick not crazy about. But it’s a tutorial ! Thanks! 👏🏻👏🏻
Susan, yes trying to prove a point (it wasn't my fav either). That black eyeliner comes back to haunt us that is for sure. Thanks for commenting - it means so much to me. Hugs, KC
Wow, great video! I am surprised by just the little adjustments that made such a difference. Your right side was so soft and subtle whereas the other side had me thinking "Where's the circus"! In my opinion, when you added the red lipstick it instantly popped out all the lines around your lips like anyone edging 40 is starting to get, too garish. I see women wearing bright red matte lipstick and it does the same as it's so unforgiving if your hand isn't steady all the while. Looking forward to your next video!....
GM. Thank you so much. Yes, if you wear a red lipstick it has to be long lasting and the lips must be lined and then let's clean up those edges. I am so glad you are here - video coming Sunday! Hugs, KC
Love this video. I keep it much more low key with makeup these days but I do love my lash extensions. They are definitely on the whispy side!
Hi Chrissy, thank you for commenting. It sounds like you go to a great technician that doesn't put them on thick like we see on younger gals. Wispy sounds amazing! I'm so glad you are here. Hugs, KC
Or partial false eyelashes just on on the ends.
Love the softer side! I have the same pet peeve, runs me nuts! Do you have any suggestions on how to keep the eyeshadow you line on the bottom lash from tranferring into wrinkles? I dont even tight line or use anything on the lower lashes because it all transfers. I have spent a fortune on different eyeliners
Hi Jackie, is it staying right around the lash line in the wrinkle part or migrating? Let me know and we'll see if we can find a solution. Hugs, KC
@kalondiacasey the eyeshadow I line bottom lash line with goes into wrinkles. When I tight line upper lash line it migrated to my undereye. Maybe a video idea 😂
Love the video and yes loved the products that were used. However we cannot get any of them here in Britain. And ideal of an alternative.
Oh Suzanne, I am going to have to research makeup available in the UK. What are some brands you like and recommend? hugs, KC
Oh yes I always put my head band on as soon as I begin washing my face and it stays on through the moisturizing and make up process.
Only comes of f when I'm ready to curl my hair(which is always my last step before heading out the door).
Thank you for doing this video.
You are so welcome. Thank you for being here. KC
I love this!!! Thank you! I always need tips! What neutral lip would you use?❤
I love a good neutral lip and have so many favorites. Lip Liner Where Ever Walnut from Make Up Forever & Makeup By Mario Midtown Lipstick. Such a beautiful combo!!!! Hugs! KC
@@kalondiacasey thank you ❤️
Wow! You've really got some real estate between eyes and brows!
Had a bit of work done, not truly representative of us older ladies.
Sally, I wish you had asked me if I had work done and I would have gladly told you the truth, which is NO! I have not had cosmetic surgery on my face and these are my real eyelids. If I have anything done to my face, I talk about it openly and don't hide it. KC
Thank you and these are my natural eyes - no work. Hugs, KC
