No intro. No background music. Straight to the point.
I like this channel.
“Hey TH-cam ! It’s me! *insert bloopers, bullshit, annoying tongue out faces”
I’m sick of that lol. I appreciate this channel too :)
YES
Yes! So many talk for 3/4 of their video on topics I don't care about.
it's because this girl has an actual personality and doesn't need that extra shit
She’s so soothing I literally listen to these videos as asmr
She actually talks like a real human being and is super legit....I’m shook...beauty gurus never do that😂
this is actually what youtube was like before 2014
iGod not really😂they all had that one free back ground music and tried to be perfect all the time(Zoella, Michelle phan, Bethany mota, stillababe09)😂I swear in some of their morning routines, some of them ‘woke up with makeup’
I think you’re thinking of TH-cam in like 2010/2011 when no one really cared what they posted
I don’t know, interrupting herself every 10 seconds is actually really irritating and distracting.
First thing I noticed too!
@@littlebloodyskirts It is tho, I hope she'll minimize that. But the way she talks in general is pretty normal which I still prefer over the other beauty gurus
A beauty youtuber who doesn't have a 5 min long intro and actually does "jump right into it"
Instant sub!
Same 👍🏾
Me too!!!
SAME
P
Literally just did the same thing!!
The blush on the apples makes one look so young and charming ☺️ 🌸while blush on the high cheekbones makes one look sun kissed and elegant 😌✨
Bronzer is for the sunshined upon look but girls! Do nOt use a dark one and apply lighTly.
Good reply
Lia, very well said!!
I've always worn blush on yhe apples on my cheeks, is that bad?
@@tracygaylor9505 no its not bad. if you feel it suits you then its good 👍
I really appreciate the fact that she doesn’t scream but actually speaks...
And the audio is so clear
Same!!!!! And zero obnoxious music and extra acting. This was a perfect video and VERY informative.
Yes. And no cursing.
@@MsBillyRain I heard some cursing ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Thisssss! No long stupid intro screaming, and no stupid outro saying, “Love you guys so much!” She just seems genuine, knowledgeable, and fucking REAL. Love her.
Left face: "im baby"
Right face: "No officer i haven't seen my husband"
Absolutely accurate tbh
😂😂
Lmaoo
LOL OMG
😂
I like the title makes me feel more like I’m taking to a bro who just wants you to be the best you
Accurate lol
Honestly it's the reason I clicked on this video and just from the first 10 seconds I subbed!
Your pic makes me laugh
Yes. It's why I clicked on it too~
So I'm not even one minute in but I just have to say I've never watched this girl before but I love the fact that she doesn't try to hide her skin texture with bright lights!
I agree. It would defeat the purpose of this video which needs to show the face shape as well. If the lights are too bright, there's no difference between cheekbone and cheek hollow. 😂
beautiful porcelain skin, jealous, for real I have scars, from bad acne growing up , I eventually found a dermatologist who prescribed Accutane for me, I had a procedure done to try to smooth the skin some, caused me to become nauseous, got home, I was walking down the hall, threw up a bit, next I fell down, I began to see yellow spots before I passed out, you are so beautiful, would like to see contouring, and highlighting video, and why is it used for those places I have never done that before, I know the nose part and why, why the forehead, why does that work, for why, keep up the good work, I've watched many tutorials, esp. before and after's
@@tracygaylor9505 Can I ask what procedure you had done that gave you that reaction? I'm looking into my options for smoothing out texture, acne scarring, pigmentation, etc and am so concerned about something like this happening to me due to my underlying health issues.
She has gorgeous skin naturally 🎉
Finally, a beauty guru who speaks like a normal person and doesnt shout every word they say.
Or say “yaaaaas” every minute
@@ronnieperry484 Hi! How are ya?
[DATA EXPUNGED] hi! how are ya? im racist. (lmaoooo)
Depressed Thespian LMAOAO
Dude try John mclean. Best beauty guru
As someone with a face, this was helpful thank you
So u didn't had a face before 😂😂
You need a different level of sense of homour to understand this, loll😂
lol!!!
😂😂🤣
@chippi chippi
so, Alex says: the blush placement will change your FACE.
The viewer says: oh, I do have a FACE, I better watch this video. ;)))))))))))
One of the few channels where I actually learn something.
If you like a more natural look you should check out Robert Welsh. He's absolutely amazing and shows you techniques that make you look great off camera as well as on.
Same af
Every time!
Yes! All knowledge, no drama.🥰
Little Star and Wayne Goss ❤️
This is the only makeup tutorial I haven't felt super annoyed by. Most makeup youtubers bring hardcore ugg boot Starbucks culture into their whole aesthetic and attitude lol
😂😂😂😂😂
Same… this has been the only make up tutorial that i havent skipped through
*me, rummaging through my mother's drawer like a racoon*:
provide me the blüsh mœthêr
😂😂😂
Lmao omg this comment is gold
tiny hands club
😂😂😭
Omfg this made me LOL
Ok but this seems like a beauty guru who does what she’s supposed to do, MAKEUP. no drama. So refreshing.
Heard.
Indeed
Just like nikkie tutorial
The beauty people realised there’s more money in drama, very sad
there are so many beauty gurus that do make up and are not involved in drama at all
The more forward blush is youthful and “ cute”, the blush that is more toward the back is vey sultry, elegant, and mature. I like both for different reasons and at different times.
I like the one on the apples of the cheeks way more personally.
Makeup Junky some people just don’t look good with blush on the cheeks and visa versa. And then there’s the lucky people that can wear it both ways and look gorgeous. I am not one of those people 😐😉
So true! No wonder I usually apply blush more on the side of my cheeks. I have a rounder face and I look pretty young for my age so I really don't like applying blush on the apples on my cheeks 😂
Yes, I was just thinking why pick just one when now you can have options?
@@LindaJohnson-rf7kz omg i thought i was the only one who looks awful with blush on cheeks
Okay, you’re officially the only person I ever want to listen to on TH-cam ever again. I’m so tired of fake and phoney and long winded, you are like a breath of fresh air.
Also, I JUST started wearing blush and I’m now obsessed. I do place it on the apples of my cheeks on the daily because it does make me feel more playful and youthful, but I would probably change the placement if I were to ever go to a wedding or a nighttime thing again
wow an actual makeup artist who shows you how to apply makeup instead of staring at themselves in the viewfinder for 32 minutes. Subbed!
Yes. I actually LEARNED something!
Same! Subscribed!
I mean we’re the ones watching the videos so...
Seriously!!
me, a colorblind person who sees no difference: ah, yes very good
aibha this. We the people with protanopia (red deficiency) are not very sensitive to changes in reds, so blushes are a dangerous game
@@RealNameNeverUsed My recommendation: Go strong. Make it dangerous to others.
🤣🤣
@@bergamotblonde Real blush makes the person looking at you blush.
Me actually color blind... that's not the way it works. 🙄
So you’re telling me if I do this I’ll look like Bella Hadid right
Sure why not
I stan
That’s everyone’s goal and I love it
Alissa Palmisano Girl you are already equally as beautiful as Bella!
Its_Jolaine You are so sweet! 😭🥺✨
Super interesting!!! As a “no longer in my youth” woman I have seen makeup trends come and go. In the late 80s/early 90s we were all instructed to put our blush on the upper part of our cheekbones. Now - we hadn’t invented blending yet - so it wasn’t as pretty - but it was basically that same idea!
I've been wearing my blush like this because I have a wide as well as round face, so doing that has not only accentuated my cheekbones, but also taken off some of the wideness. Like it elongates my face instead.
3wrss3ssss444r3e4ßssss😊
Yes, we did not know how to blend. It was stripey.
I feel like blush at the front makes a look 'younger' and more fresh faced, whereas blush on the cheekbone makes a look more elegant and 'mature'.
I agree.
I was thinking something similar. She almost looks like she is blushing for real in the first placement.
Yes definitely does!! I have this in my hacks video that a senior beauty editor told me a few years back! Helpful tip for mature skin 🙌🏼
I feel it makes it more "editorial"? Idk gives me fashion magazine vibes
Yes older ladies that use blush as a “contour” look stunning!
I did not notice until the end, that she doesn't have background music......did you realise how interesting she is with her soft and pure, but also serious voice??!!!!
ugh yes i love it
She is the best American beauty artist I've watched . I find the others so grating, self absorbed, unecesssry music, taking ages to get on with it. They are all just too much. I really like this young, beautiful mature Woman. No bull shit. Wayne Goss, is awesine, and the Lone Wolf are two very good English Make- up tutorials.
if the beauty community was like this there wouldn’t be drama every other week
It is like this though it’s just like two problematic people that cause all the issues.
clorox bleach facts!!!
the old beauty community used to be JUST like this from 2010-2014. it all went downhill from there.
yall are just focusing your attention to the wrong people
Right? I prefer MUA like this!!
When watching it on screen, the one on the left, directly under your eye makes you look more youthful/playful. Perfect brunch and shopping, and flirty makeup. The one on the right, higher on your cheekbones is more sophisticated. Its perfect for when you need people to take you seriously, like a board meeting or something.
A not self-centered beauty youtuber who also doesn't say "oh my God" every 5 minutes? oh! And a video that is less than 10 mins long that gets straight to the point? Sub!
You know how awful it is when people say “oh my god?”
I haaaate when beauty gurus pull out a highlighter because I know there's going to be a good two minutes of "oh my gooood *gasp* oh my God. So pretty." It's just such a performance. Alex is so chill, I love it.
I subbed too immediately.
@@ByCatJ 😂😂😂 💯 It be because they egotistical narcissists lol
She is probably not getting paid for this video. Apparently, you have to have 10 minutes or more to get paid.
*Nobody:*
*TH-cam:* “Blush can litterally give you a different face”
*2 million people who hate their faces:* “interesting”
Bold of you to assume that we hate our face.
oh frabjous day
Bold of you to assume that we don’t hate our faces.
@@rain3339 😂
Bold of you to assume I have a face
Bold of you to assume there is a face
It's good that people experiment to see what suits them the most. You can always ask a trusted friend for an opinion. Also.... straight to the point videos. No long intros or filler content for almost 7 minutes of good information. Keep it up.
I tried this technique and my plastic surgeon boss asked me if I was losing weight. He said my face look super structured. That's a WIN to me! Thank you
:O
placed it on the side, correct?
Your boss sounds gross.
@@malindaalizabeth497 typical plastic surgeon tbh
@@malindaalizabeth497 Well, he may legitimately been staring at her bone structure like "something changed" I know I say shit like that to people I make clothing for because I know how shit fits them and then I have to be like "oh was that rude? 😬"
I love how she has this "so done with everything" aura. I can relate immensely.
Her charm
One of the reasons why I love her
Reason why I subbed!
Me too. I'm so done with always happy fake people.
That’s how we are in the n w. I keep thinking she HAS to be from here. 😂
Ladies and gentlemen let's start supporting these beauty gurus instead of the other trashy problematic ones thnkx
She's making me love make up again! So nice and refreshing to just talk about make up and get all the great tips. Thank you Alex! You're my favorite!
Yes! I miss actual tips and tutorials. Now it’s all challenges and reviews (which I love) but I miss videos like this! 😭
Until this one gets famous and joins the others
Wow!!! It's amazing how simply adding a bit more closer to her under eye area changed the whole look!!! That side instantly looked like an adorable baby doll!!! So cool.
This caption makes me feel like we were hanging out and you randomly told me about what you learned today
omg dude, literally.
me a guy who doesn’t use makeup:
👁👄👁 < “mom can i try your blush”
Lmao
That’s awesome!
Guys need a little bit of touch up too tho~ just a bit. Put a lot and you'd be called gay. Put too much and you'd be called a drag. But really there's nothing wrong with trying it out sometimes. Just a glow up and not looking like you're so stressed. XD Even using a bit of chapstick - some guys tell you it's gay, but avoiding cracked and chapped lips is better. Besides, there are girls/women who likes a man whom they can turn to and ask opinions/brainstorm with to level up their looks. So there is definitely nothing wrong with learning a bit about make ups~
Lol
u dropped this 👑
You’re personality is like the cool calm girl in a show that everyone loves.. if that makes sense lol
That's because she's the cool calm girl that everybody loves
you heard it here folks; to be cool is cringey
She's like the cool side character that everyone love
@@gandalfs-pants so being calm and not overreacting every 2 seconds like other beauty gurus is cringey? noted.
can we not , can you go more in depth how it’s cringe? if she was trying too hard, i would understand. but she’s so naturally calm and cool
"I'm sure you could find elf." I love beauty bloggers who are not married to more expensive products, and willing to play to a less wealthy audience.
Elf is awesome!! Cheap & also vegan / cruelty free!! Go Elf!!
Yep she's a cutie very helpful.
@@zoex7993 i love elf!
I must say that your choice of words is quite nice
I love bh cosmetics blush, they carry peachy tones akso
E-girls cracked the code: just put blush everywhere.
Sorry, that’s no code. We all did that in the 80’s.
The New England Holiday Hostess RIGHT??
Vikings smeared blood all over their faces like 2000 years ago, so they did it first.
Get a grip. It’s just a joke.
The New England Holiday Hostess yea the only difference is y’all didn’t know how to blend blush...looking like clowns no offense.
VS M same could be said for you ...
I like that she went straight to the point... No lolly gagging here
Regina Hills : “Lolly gagging”!! That’s an old school phrase that my mom used to say, and it made me think of her, and miss her. It was such a warm and happy feeling to see that word......thanks.....you made my day!
The whole reason I will subscribe!
"Yeah I'm Alex" that's IT
You'd like Aly Art, she's straight to the facts
Well, that reminded me of Skyrim's city guards... xD
This is EXACTLY how my blush journey went. I do the exact same thing, and it really makes a difference. Your face shape and eyes are very similar to mine, at first I was actually sort of weirded out by how similar we look. What is super awesome is that now there is a TH-camr who I can get tips from that will benefit me 99% of the time! It's pretty neat. Plus you're super cool. Thanks for all the great videos!
my mental was ready for a chaotic intro with annoying background music, but she just talks casually, got straight into the point and no monotonous music. ITS SO CALM I LOVE IT
By the way, I love Raven
I just realized, why do people even add intros?
@@user-hj5io2wt3d Well people picked that up from tv shows, and it's kind of a way to ready people for the main contents of the video they're watching. Intros can be nice, but like everyone else in the comments are saying a lot of people tend to go overboard with them so it ruins the vibe
@@aniyilator Ohhh ok I get it now, thanks!
Me, who doesn't wear blush, watching this because it was in my recommended: 👁️👄👁️
you should start! blush looks so cute on everyone 🥰
Sameee 😂
I really like this comment 😁
lmaoo same
Same tho
I like how youtube is recommending the unproblematic youtubers during the recent tati, shane Dawson and jeffree star drama
Ah, so that explains all the cool stuff popping up. Awesome! The signal thru the noise 👍👍
What happened? Im reaaally lost in all of that controversy
Can someone explain the drama :b
Is just that the tea videos are waaaayyy to long
Burn chicken nugget, I used to like Tati only for her excessive vanity and spending because no one is as self obsessed as she is and she’s tried every product so I used to go to her for product information but basically she only promotes people who pay her now. She didn’t have the slightest of a problem with James Charles’ lifestyle until he didn’t support her product and as a grown woman she was trying to talk crap about a guy half her age and his mom.. that’s when I stopped watching her. Now everyone sees both sides and she’s loosing viewers aka money she’s suddenly “sorry” and trying to fake tears in a really awkward, pathetic way so she doesn’t seem like as huge of a bitch as she is.
@@cyntax4901 Okay I might be missing some few points but basically: the drama between James Charles and Tati blew up again now and people are suspecting it has to do with Shane and Jeffree manipulating Tati. Shane wrote a statement that he thinks James needs "a humble pie" and recorded an apology video. Shane has been accused again of being racist & ped*philia and even Jaden Smith tweeted how disgusted he is (because it involves Jaden Smith's sister). Tati recently uploaded a video of why she was mad at James in the 2019 drama, when Shane knows this, he went on live, calling her "manipulative" and that he can't believe she is saying. Though, there are many youtubers who has also been exposing Jeffree of wanting to see James fall/get cancelled. So, in my opinion what Tati said is true and makes sense that Jeffree and Shane was gaslighting her. Jeffree still remains silent as for now and I doubt he's going to say anything lol. That's all I know or remember, at least lol I hope this helps 😳 also sorry it's too long lmaoo, have a nice day🌸
I'm 58 and have been using blush since 16. The higher placement is everything and I've always done it that way. It really does accentuate bone structure.
Japanese have this style called “drunk blush” which is placed closer towards the eyes. That style does make someone look more youthful. 😊
I love the drunk blush. I think it looks cute.
I love that style I just dont know if it suits a European face structure... I have a similat bone structure to Alex and I noticed that just like she says, outside edges of the face are better to apply the blush for me... but first I apply 2 brushes of bronzer.
igari makeup not drunk blush but yes
@@koraXro idk i'm irish and my face structure works fine with igari makeup but maybe thats just me lol
@@koraXro What even is an European face structure?
i like my blush like “is she shy? or is it rosacea?”
which is ironic cause i do have a little rosacea
me too 😭
Haha
My cheeks are so pink naturally that I don't even need to wear blush.
I'm ultra fair and have mild rosacea that's almost closer to what a berry-toned blush would give and it just sort of looks like inflammation. So I cover it all up with concealer and apply a pale peachy blush a bit higher on my cheekbones, and weirdly enough it actually comes out looking more natural.
I have RF
She is the only make up artist on TH-cam that’s not annoying as hell
Her and Robert Welsh
@@brittharmony5126 I find most American makeup videos annoying. I like the British Videos. Their voice is so much calmer and they always come across as natural down to earth Women.
@@phoenixrising5088 who are your favorites?
@@aysegulagrel6086 Wayne Goss and the Pampered Wolf. Both English.
britt harmony yesss I love Robert!! Alex is my new fav makeup artist!
Up until very recently at the age of 34 I didn't know that I had lived my life in a state of depersonalization. Pretty severe one. I thought that's how everyone experienced life. I've been able to understand why certain things having to do with the structure and proportions of my face and body in general have been so impossible for me. I don't hate my body so I wouldn't call it body dysmorphia I guess but, I do not understand it. I use it well enough, but when it comes down to how something will fit me or what shades would look good on me, it's like there's just nothing there. I got nothing going on up there. So these videos are so incredibly helpful, thank you so so much. I don't know that when you made them you considered they would actually help people with chronic mental conditions but, here we are. I'm also on the spectrum and your calm demeanor is much appreciated. I have a hard time processing people with instructors animating into the camera like they're already at the party they're gearing up for.
i absolutely love how she explains, calm and straight to the point
she is kinda like Ellen.
@@eduardochavacano ellen who? Ellen Degenerate?
People who know what they’re doing: placing the blush here adds a certain effect to the face, and placing it here adds a completely different one!
Me: reeheheehe cheeky *_PINK_*
CHEEKY PINK
*CHEEKY PINKY*
*PINKY CHEEK*
CHEEKY CHEEKY PINK PINK
wait no
Video starts at-oh wait she actually gets to the point within this century nvm
Yes!! the editorial look is so nice and different from the traditional blush placement, and thats how I do it when I have a fun blush to try out. I use blush on apple of cheeks sometimes under other products because yes, youthflow glow, but also yes, can look like the focus is too much on the center of the face and loses definition. Love this video and how you encourage ppl to creatively work with the face shape they have
I love the fact that there’s no background annoying music. It makes it so interesting to watch till the end and calm. Love it 😍🌷
Yes. I didn’t even realize it but the lack of overstimulation is so welcome
I’m so tired I’d sound effects and crap! I love these calm informative videos, she’s amazeballs 😍
I’m never actually gained knowledge about how to apply makeup from a makeup youtuber. Thank you so much!!
You should check out Robert Welsh then. :)
Summer Murphy i 2nd that
Check out Stephanie Lange - she has a channel with great in-depth tutorials and makeup tips.
Girl who do you watch
Hamsa Fouad not the right ones apparently lol
Some makeup artist once said that there is no need to use a contour, you just need to apply the blush right. Totally truth, done this way since the beginning :)
I 100% stand by that, I have a diamond shaped face and doing contour in that area is not a cute look
That explains why I never liked heavy contour on my face . I love some cream blush if I contour for like a wedding it light contour all the way where she put the blush . Adds depth.
Amen haha
My face cannot be contoured, like its just not possible for me. Every time I do it or someone else does it, it ends up looking bad, but I can get a similar lifted and sculpted look using blush.
Old movie stars like Marylin Monroe would use blush the same way some people use contour today
@@belalugosisdead4444 diamond face shape as well & I never contour. Just blush like she did on the right.
I used to do the higher placement but recently I've changed to the whole of my cheeks and nose as it makes me super cute, like I've been running and I am pink cheeked. ☺️
Natural is better.
@@Warmfireandtea Light makeup that enhances your features and doesn’t smother them-that’s all I’m comfy with. I have a job that requires me to wear makeup, but I always go for the cleanest possible look. It’s nice to take some days off as well so the skin can breathe (and the blush all over cheeks/nose is adorable!)
Yeah I feel like it looks more natural on the tbone area or the cheeks and nose area.
THANK YOU FOR BEING A BEAUTY TH-camR THAT ACTUALLY TEACHES BEAUTY AND ISNT INVOLVED IN DRAMA AND TRYING TO SELL US STUFF 24/7!!!!!
exactly!!
7 words in. "Today we're talking about Blush. Placement." So impressive. New subscriber here!!!
Same!!!
SAME, SIS!
I appreciate that when you do these videos you don't intentionally try to make one side "bad". Just show how 2 techniques genuinely create different looks.
She is an absolute beauty!! it's hard for me to even focus on why she needs make up!! I'm in my early sixties & feel like I need so much more than this, but I will practice her techniques.. Make the world a beautiful place.🌸
No drama, no rambling, no bitching, no marketing, not trying to sell us anything, just an honest, straightforward, down to earth human being. Where have you been all our lives? Much love 🥰
It's like you had an epiphany while applying blush this morning and immediately dropped everything to film this knowledge like "holy shit the world doesnt know what it's missing."
big mood
Wayne Goss has a great video on how to place blush for your face shape & cheekbones
Center cheek looks innocent, higher up looks sculpted, adventurous.
Then there’s me who literally put blush on my nose and all under my eyes to my contour
Same though! Gives soft girl vibes
@@fluffkin7432 yeah, I do it for the aesthetic
same lol i put blush on my cheekbones, around my eyes, on my nose and over my lips lol
Well, pandas can get away with that.
Meredith R underrated comment
This was just like 'my friend who is really good at makeup is teaching me how to make my blush better' and I am here for it
when she put the blush on the second way i screamed cause holy shit girl that CHEEKBONE YES. i have the same face shape so im def gonna put my blush there from now on
Same!
Exactly, yes. That's the cheekbone I've been chasing
Me too!
I screamed too! because I really don't know how to put blush! I'm going to practice
Just found your channel and loving it. I love how you explain that this is the way *you* like to place blush, and not necessarily THE way. It's about discovering what makeup can do to your look and adopting your own "best". Weighing the pros and cons of placement without judgement is 10/10.
I really love the style choice of having no background music!
Yes! I was trying to pinpoint exactly what it was!! No background music!
“How come nobody told me I was a fox?!” 😂
But like seriously 😂
I came into the comments looking for this 🤣🤣
I love her already no intro, straight to the point, subscribed.
timely. turning 28 and about to buy makeup for the first time in my life.... I CAN DO THIS..
Yes you can! 🙌🏼
SAME GIRL!!! DO IT 😎😎😎
But guys don't forget you don't need the makeup to be beautiful
@@abcdefgh6951 yeah we know that hehe. Makeup is an art and enhances our already existing beauty! Makes us feel good, confident and is therapeutic for some.
You dont need it girl , dont get use to it .
I usually hate it, but this actually makes me WANT to wear blush.
I actually like both. The higher Blush maybe more sophisticated for evening and the appley side more a daytime outdoorsy younger look. 😊
Same! I think they’re both pretty, I like to switch up 🙌🏼
I don’t even know what looks nice anymore. I just put it everywhere lmao
Right lmaoo
Same
I remember Wayne Goss sharing this technique many moons ago. He also said that as we get older, we definitely need to keep blush to the outside perimetres only unless we want to drag our faces down... xXx 😎🖤🖤🖤
his issue with putting it on the apples of the cheek was that people apply their blush while smiling, so the face drops when not smiling. however he did echo the higher placement like makeupbyariel (?) in a different video.
As soon as he released that video - never had an issue with blush ever again. Game changer
That video changed my life
ana'cee Do you know which video specifically from wayne goss? I would love to watch
@@SuShiiAeLin th-cam.com/video/QkAR4enrCW4/w-d-xo.html
(This was the amazing video by Wayne Goss, I assume this is the one everbody is referring to, at least this was the life changing one for me!)
I have an oval face so I prefer to apply my makeup to look more “cute” and “youthful” since naturally I feel that oval faces tend to look more mature. So for me it gives me that good balance of mature/youthful.
Waterbaby Oxox yea If you have a face like that (me too) place your blush where she put hers (not the cheekbone placement) and you’ll look more younger and cuter. Doing blush like the other side gives a more chiseled, defined look but I prefer to look like those anime girls lol
I have an oval face too, but I highly prefer cheekbone blush since I already look very young and childish
I have an oval face shape also and I find I always look “cute” with my makeup aha
I love this! I have a thin, long face with small high (barely visible) cheekbones. Learning that cheeks are not the same as cheekbones made a huge difference for me. Everyone always said to put blush on my cheeks, but it dragged my face or pulled the attention towards the center and I looked like a mime. I noticed this style works much better!
The cheek "youthful" side really reminds me of Natalie Portman, or someone who is happy and fresh from playing in the snow. The cheekbone "high-fashion" side feels more dramatic and runway model or edgy and maybe with a tiny nod to the 80s.
I like both and can really see how someone's style, personality, and bone structure could determine which of the two suits them more.
I love the simplicity of this video, that it focuses on simply comparing two very simple techniques and would love to see more makeup videos that simple like say 2-4 styles of lashes or something.
Bro I started to read this comment just as she was turning her face to look at the youthful side and I legit thought "oh at this angle with that blush she looks like Padmé" and then I saw that you said Natalie Portman and now I'm a little worried that you're reading my mind 😂👽
Exactly! I have been doing it differently depending on what I want with my makeup. If I want a more modern effect I do the "high fashion" and if I want a more dreamy/fairy tale vibe I do the youthful.
No joke, the higher/lifted side is how my mom taught me to apply blush when I first asked her about it. In the late 80s.
same!
It really is an 80s look. Many even bring it up to the side of their brows.
Mine too.
I took a makeup class and that what they told me to do: put blush on my cheekbone
My Mom was an anti makeup hippie BUT this is how my Grandma taught me too
THANK YOU for being so direct, down to earth, and chill, not loud, bubbly or perky, no excessive pointless chatter. No lead in high pitched “HI GUYS!” with a massive phony grin and life story. Wow this is so incredibly refreshing. I can actually sit through this and learn without gritting my teeth. Bless.
EXACTLY, I AGREE 💯‼️
Very well said!
Agreed
I like her for that reason :)
It’s so calm and real it’s almost unsettling LMAO I’m like AH but in the best wat
Right??
I actually can’t believe how much of a difference there is from the slight change in placement. Wild.
Your Profile pic looks similar to a black and white picture of Natasha Denona picture lol
Agree like both applications..however the one that is more on your cheek does look shorter and more youthful. The other is more safiacated and definitely more professional and adult. You're beautiful with both. Thanks for the tips
The cheekbone version is more American style . The one in the center is more like a Korean Japanese drunk blush which is more fresh
Also more classical. I mean, when blush came into existence it was supposed to look like you are blushing. Hence the name 😅
Nobody blushes on their cheekbones but it looks very good also.
Nari Shemintarc some people have fat face you know 😂better to make it look longer
-. A wow okay that came for my neck
Western Europe: are we a joke to you
Planet Jaime 🤣🤣🤣
It’s so interesting to see people who actually think about this stuff and try make kind of ”science” out of makeup, and meanwhile I’m here with manic grin and new blush like yeeeeesssss all over my face thanks XD
Hi Alex, Just discovered your channel! Thank you this video specifically helped as the demo shows WHY the placement enhances the uplift to the face. Also enhancing the cat eye, high fashion look! It helped to see the angled brush for the creme blush as I tried fingers and ended up starting over a few times. Thank you for the interesting thought process at the end. Brainstorming, creativity, thoughts out loud in transparency allows us all to remain creative with you. I admire that and appreciate that. Its so true- I can love a look in the bathroom and then go outside, check it, not love it as much. Same thing- get into the car and check it and or video chat and decide yes keeping the look or nope, not repeating it. Interesting how the camera and mirror views differ for a makeup tutorial artist, yet your honesty and transparent share help us all learn too. You GO GIRL!
Me: puts blush all over my face like foundation
I do that with pink highlighter.
*Brushes on a little bit* Ah yes, pretty!
*Brushes it on my whole face*
Yazzzzzzzzzzz
SAAAAME 😂
@@bergamotblonde Honestly if I could I would use pink glitter all over my body.
While the other part of the beauty community is going down let’s learn about actual helpful stuff
Yeah, agree! Also, the quality of this video is great. Wonder which camera she uses?
I love how straightforward you are
SUCH👏 A 👏QUEEN 👏
😭🙏🏼❤️
The blush on the apple of her cheeks makes her look so youthful and cute! I prefer the way it looks.
Yo Alex sis lets do this exercise with different things hehe. Like a vid on lip shape/lip liner, a vid on eyeshadow placement, bronzer. Like a whole series. 💖🥰
LITERALLY have lip liner on my list next 😂 But fuck yes 🙌🏼
Alexandra Anele YESSS THE NOTIFICATION BELL IS ON WAITING FOR THIS TO DROP!!!
Alexandra Anele yes pleaseeee
watched this isaac dude on tiktok recreate this vid almost word for word. lowkey v sick of men taking womens' content and passing it off as their own, idk just didnt sit right with me.
wait what’s their @?
Wayne Goss has been saying to put blush on like this for many years. I got the idea from him. Definitely has a lifting flattering effect for sure.
Tf that's so creepy and disgusting. Ew🤢
@@linneasimchah1621 yeah I've been doing my blush like this because of Wayne Goss, such a master of make up💙
Men always do this! They get praises for what we get shamed for.
Here's the thing: I didn't have sisters, my mom didn't really wear makeup, my friends aren't really makeup people and the one that was was goth. So this was amazing, nice and thorough, to the point, everything was amazing and I wish I had this in high school. Thank you!
Me too. Except throw in hippieish parents. I really wish I knew this before.
I don't get this comment, having sisters doesn't automatically mean they would of been good at makeup or even been able to teach you? 🤨 Why is does this need to be a sterotypical thing. And why would it be a mothers job to teach you makeup anyhow?
Makeup, like any art ... Practice makes perfect.
The more familiar you get with makeup to better you understand the POWER of it.
I am a man with 7 sisters and I self taught myself thru TH-cam videos.
Now i do all of my sisters makeup lol.
I just follow the rules of drama.
You want Insta brows, you need lashes.
You do lashes you need shadow n concealer.
You do concealer, you need foundation n contour
You do that, might as well use lip stick....
Basically if you are gonna use makeup then USE MAKEUP! the whole 100 yards lol
(I'm a Patrick Starr applier circa 2017 lol)
I’m with you, the cheek side appears to draw down. The other side placed more back towards the era does look better to me. That’s how I wear mine as well.
Finally a beauty guru who actually teaches you something
in a specific angle, she low-key looks like Brie Larson..
sometimes sounds like her too :o
*High key. That’s literally why I clicked on this video. I thought Brie started a TH-cam channel.
right?!
Add Bow If Girl I think Brie actually did start a yt channel
Oh hey, so that’s what was bugging me 😂 I kept feeling like there was something I was noticing, just couldn’t think what it was
Definitely looks more flattering high on the cheek bone like you said…
Wow, after about 10 years of watching beauty gurus on TH-cam, this is one of the only things ive learnt! instantly subscribed as this quick content as changed how I will look at placing blush forever! I would love to see more videos like this showing placements, different wings for eye shapes etc, how to lift and accentuate features! so helpful! x
Iiterally! crazy tutorials are all good & fun but I’m over here like how do I eyeliner still lmao
I personally do the "youthful" one, and I actually think it does that for me too, gives me a more natural rosy cheek look. Like when you’re 12 and just ran around outside, you’re winded, your dewy, life is good and the world isn’t burning to the ground
Ha!
Ha, I'm 12. I just red tomato red when I run. Also life isn't good, since there's something called COVID-19! I'm sure we have a lot less problems than adults though.
I can see that in your pic! Does look really nice, love it. It’s what I often do too, but I this other look is prob best for very formal events.
wqfflesyrup Enjoy your childhood. It goes by so fast. Freedom is nice but bills and working ain't, lmao.
Pre-k4 Spring 2020 thank you !!
Finally, a beauty TH-camr that acts like a real person and not a try hard Disney princess. totally love your vibe 💓
Cute honest presentation. The higher cheekbone blush seems like the way to go tried and true, don’t mess with a good thing. It looks, elegant sleek polished sophisticated sharp & intelligent.
I have been saying this for years. Blush placement, Bronzer placement and highlighter placement is the key for AMAZING CHEEKBONES
TRUTH 🙌🏼
Whats your bronzer tip :)?
*e-girls entered the chat*
😂 Wait...can I just say...I'm still so confused about what the fuck an e girl is......
@@AlexandraAnele a modern take on emo girls without the being depressed part.
@@AlexandraAnele google tiktok e girl and you'll get a couple examples what an e girl is
Alexandra Anele it used to be a term for pretty girls on the internet/social media that had a lot of ”orbiters”(simps and/or guys who like them and hang out with them in the hopes of getting to smash), but now it’s mainly just a style/aesthetic with influences from japanese makeup(specifically igari makeup), anime, goth and punk- so like dark clothes with lots of chains and very dramatic pink makeup with a ton of blush. It’s also often associated with mental illness, drugs and sex work. Hope that was a good enough explanation hehe 🤓🤓
Alexandra Anele so yea basically modern emos lmao
