Mel…I have been a long time subscriber (since nearly the beginning) and don’t comment very often yet watch you ALL the time. You are the most gifted, sweetest and genuine person on TH-cam and it’s why I continue to watch and support you. I’m so sorry for everything you have been through and it’s so sad that you have been raked over the coals through all of this. You did exactly what we all would have done to help our family and I would have done the exact same thing if I had the platform you have. In addition, it was so generous of people to willingly donate money. Don’t listen to the trolls because they do not represent the people that support you and your channel. I’m sorry you have to account for every dime and do a video like this to prove you are ethical. We already know. Praying for you and your family.
I’m so sorry that anyone would think you were being deceptive. You are the most genuine and sweet person and it shows in your videos, Mel. I’m so glad for the help your family received. Sorry for the rough times you’ve had and that some people can make those times worse. There’s so many of us that love you!
i am so so sad.... to see this video and know you are gone to a better place, R. I. P Mel, so sad that you are not here anymore to teach us, inspire us with ur amazing creativity in make up! my heart 💔 today when i knew that you were gone.... rest in peace beautiful mermaid 🧜♀️ ❤️😻
Mel, I appreciate you! You’re such a wonderful person. Kind, generous, compassionate, genuine. I’ve been watching your videos for several years now and your positive, genuine, creative energy has helped me through a lot of tough times. Sometimes something as simple as an awesome makeup video can give me something to look forward to when things are seeming really dark. Thank you for that Mel. Love and light to you and your family.
Mel you have nothing to apologize for. You're one of the most genuine people on this platform. If anybody feels anything different then shame on them because you DESERVE better.
Mel, I think you are being incredibly generous when you say “perception is always reality”. Some people just have no empathy and others just have a mean streak and look for negativity when there is no reason to do so. You poured your heart out for good reason, and the people who care about you see nothing negative about it.
Sweet Mel💜, I’m just going to say what came to my mind first. You can’t please everyone. So many people love you because of the pure light that comes through your personality. And hurt people do hurt people. So maybe the person who triggered you had some issues going on of their own. People need to be empathetic to the pain that others have when they are honestly expressing it, so that they get that same empathy when their time comes around. I apologize to you for being exposed to anyone who would be less than understanding when you’re in distress. No I don’t see all of your videos, but I see a lot of them. I pray peace and happiness over you, dear heart. Keep you loving spirit. Hugs and love to your family. Be blessed 💜 And, I almost inboxed this to you. But, maybe it will speak to someone else’s heart 💜
Never thought you were being deceptive, never did I feel you weren’t going to help your family financially either. I’m sorry you have to deal with the added stress of others. What a blessing your grandmother received. ❤️ You and your entire family are in my prayers.
Third this! I stand behind Mel!!! I never once have ever doubted you. You’re one of the most genuine, sweetest people here on TH-cam. Love and light to you and your family 🕯💖
I'm sorry and very sad that anyone would doubt your honesty especially when you're dealing with heartache. You are such a caring and honest person and it saddens me that someone would think badly of your intentions. Wishing your family all the best, sending you love and hugs!
LOL! I looked at the box and just knew I was gonna mess it up. Unless I have somebody whisper in my ear right beforehand…. Actually, even then… i’ll mess it up 🤣🤣🤣🤣
That breaks my heart that you would ever have to say sorry to anyone . You are such a trusted person in this youtube world that my donation was never ever a thought . I'm sickened that somewhere along the line of the pain you are going through you have to say over and over you are sorry . God bless you for what you did for your family . You are so beautiful inside and out and I never ever needed a Receipt I even had to not listen or watch you have to say that . I love you Mel and we are all so blessed to have you and the days your videos come out you lighten up my day . I had surgery for a tramatic injury due to a fall . I'm a skater and I feel back shattering my hand and wrist . So thank you sunshine for all you give to me . 🙏🙏🌞
Sending you so much love❤ I am facing putting our sweet Great Dane to rest this week and it's the HARDEST decision we have to do for our fur babies🐶 I know you've been through so much, ❤ and I'm always here my friend. Rest in peace sweet Diesel, and I'm continuing to pray for your family🙏 LOVE YOU❤
Tara, you are an angel on earth. I saw your donation. I also saw so many other youtube friends of Mels not donating. It was really suprising.. God bless you❤️
@@kaaliina2 ❤❤ I felt led to help her family, her Mom has always been so sweet too me and I just felt helpless being so far away😢 I adore Mel, and she's been there for me through hard times I've had. I'm grateful to call her a friend, thank you for your sweet comment❤🦋
So sorry that you are going through all this. We love you and see you as a genuine person. Hurt people hurt others and it’s a very disappointing feature in the human race. Loved the Diesel tribute. Nothing is as loyal and true as a great dog. The hardest part is saying goodbye.
How anyone could question/doubt your honesty and integrity is most disappointing and upsetting to me. When suffering pain, anguish, grief, worry and confusion, the very last thing anyone expects or needs is to be accused of anything underhand. The way some people think is a cause for serious concern. They could start a a whole new war during peace times - based on their skewed way of looking at situations, followed by their lies and accusations. I wish you and your family nothing but love and happier times ahead. 💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞
You are such a doll! It makes me sad to think anyone would have thought you were being deceptive during a time of need. I am so glad we were able to donate something to help your family,knowing you can never put a price on something like that. Thank you for all the goodness you bring to this platform.All the best💜💕
Mel, thank you for all of the transparency you have shown with our donations. How anyone could believe that you were being anything less than above board is beyond me. I’m so glad you were able to help your family. So sorry for your many losses these past few weeks. As a dog mom of 3 pooches, I couldn’t imagine losing a pup. We are praying for you all and hoping for brighter days ahead. Thanks for giving us amazing content and sharing your insight and skill. You are a gift.
You are the sweetest. Why anyone would accuse you of using the money not for its intended use, is crazy. You have a heart of gold. Love your hits and misses. My heart still breaks for you losing Diesel. I lost my sweet Daphne one month ago. My sweet kitty was nearly 19. Sending you lots of love. 💘💘
I’m so happy you have been blessed to help your family. In my opinion you are a genuine beauty in and out. I feel you would also give all you could to anyone you care for.
I love you. I never had a thought of you misdirecting any funds. I just know that when I am having financial setbacks or upcoming obligations I have to curtail my spending, especially if someone is helping me out. Lord knows I want to buy backups of things, but I can’t. It just seems the right thing to do. I hope you understand my feelings. Praying for you and your family and you are still gorgeous as ever.
I always slow down spending habits when I need to. A lot of people missed the part where I had said that myself and my family had helped as much as we could. I am still sending money that I can to my family. I also never asked for money. I asked for a video to be watched so that I could send the money from that video to my grandmother. I added in the Venmo for those that wanted to donated but repeatedly said it was not what I was looking for. I understand that came across the wrong way. That’s my fault.
@@melthompson2856 Thanks for replying Mel. I hope this will all go away soon and we can focus on what you are going to do with the new Pat McGrath palette when it comes out 😍. I’m sure you did cut back and without question are helping your family. Because you need luxury items for your channel we understand you have to keep purchasing them. It’s your money and you have the right. However, mentioning buying back-ups and unrelated beauty items may be what some of the comments are about. I hope people are kind in expressing their opinion as you don’t deserve anything less. See you next video.
I can't believe some people reported your video unbelievable, am so glad your grandmother got the help she needed its amazing, i loved your video but you did make me cry at the end, love you Mel ❤
Mel, I want you to know that this fan never for one minute thought that you were being deceptive. I’ve been praying for you and your family and praise God that you have been blessed (and will continue to receive His favor) through this stormy time. Your sweet and truthful heart is of no question in this mind. Your fan for life!
I have been a subscriber and lover of you and your channel for years and years and it truly pains me that anyone would think or feel you would be deceptive in ANY WAY! You are the most genuine, caring, loving, giving soul! I’m so happy that you raised so much for your grandma! When I donated it made my heart 💜 happy! I had commented on your post about loosing Diesel and I put that I also lost my dog Solly and you sent me the kindest message on Instagram. That is the type of person Mel is 💜 Back to makeup I was getting my brows professionally laminated for over a year and I have taken a break to let my brows have a rest so I picked up the ABH Brow freeze and the new Patrick Ta lamination gel. I love both but the Patrick Ta lamination gel is a little tricky and I did make the mistake of adding a bit more after I used it and I had crunchy brows! I’m so happy you are loving the Urban Decay tinted moisturizer it’s one of my FAVORITES! I saw that YSL is releasing the YSL Nu face tinted moisturizer and I would love to see you review it!! It reminds me of the Urban Decay tinted moisturizer so I would love to see comparisons and what you think. I love you Mel! Have the best day 😘
People who call you a liar or deceptive, have probably such kind of personality themselves. I could see in that video how hard it was for you to ask for help or to “burden” us with your problems. You can’t fake such feelings. I wish you all the best 😘
You have done so much for me that you don’t even know…I am rediscovering makeup after a long long long depression and everything about your channel has gently guided me along this journey. I finally learned how to correctly apply eyeshadow and powder face products because of you!!! It was easy for me to donate for that reason. 🥰
I can’t be alone in my thoughts💭 💭💭💭!!! Your make up is so flawless, I always think you can’t top what you do today. Then you post another video and look even more stunning. You look so healthy and Your skin just glows. Naturally Beautiful 🤩
Good luck to you and your family. You’ve had so much on your plate lately and yet you always come off so optimistic. Always a pleasure to watch you. 🌈🌈
Oh honey. I wish I could just give you and your Grandma a big hug. How anyone could think you are being deceptive is Astonishing to me. Don't worry about it tho, your TRUE fans/followers would never think that of you. Much love to you and your family. ❤❤❤❤
I am very proud of you! You do amazing things! I know that it feels like the weight of the world is crashing down on you and your family but through all of this I hope you know that you have a community of people (family, friends and of course us here on TH-cam) there to catch you! This is an extremely tough season for you but I promise you that it is a season and seasons change....
You can't be any more honest and transparent. You have good intentions and a good ❤ I wish your family the very best. I'm sorry that you have to explain yourself.
Hope you’re doing okay ♥️. I was so sorry to see the news of your sweet dog after everything else you’ve been through lately…I know that must have been SO hard. We lost our golden retriever last year after having him for 13 years and it still hurts me to this day. Sending all the love and positive vibes during this hard time… you will get through it. 😘
I've put the Linda Hallberg new eyeshadow palette in and out my shopping basket so many times, but never picked it up. Would love to see a tutorial or even a 3 looks 1 palette video!
Mel, I'm so sorry that you've had such a trying time lately with your family health problems, your own health problems, the loss of a beloved pet. It makes me angry and sad that trolls question your integrity and caused you unnecessary stress. I, personally, have never questioned your integrity. You seem to me like a truly honest person. Sending you and your family prayers. P. S. Did you do a video on your look? It's gorgeous.
Huda has really been doing a good job of listening to her consumers. Her products get better and better because she maturely takes constructive criticism. I’ve been praying for your grandma and family 🙏
Those of us that know you know you would never do anything shady or scammy. Never just know I have your back I stood up for you to people online. I will defend you just like a real life friend. Cause I’m my life you are my friend! I love you Mel! Diesel has an amazing mom!
Good people all go through tough times and do the best they can to support others through it. That’s what I saw when I initially watched your videos. The tragedies you and your family have been facing are senseless and heart-wrenching, I never thought it was deceptive or shady or anything. You could have put together a donation page, like we see all the time, to me it was all the same. They need help, people who feel they can, did help. Even if it was just by watching the video over and over. There was no arm, no deception, no pain done. People who wants to see the bad in anything just needed a new outlet. I’m thinking of you and wishing you some time to process all of that happened and move one peacefully. These times have been tumultuous at best for you it seems, so I wish you peace and calm, a time to heal and regain some forces ❤️
Somehow, i missed all the drama, so i' don't know what happened, but shame on anyone who came at you during such a difficult time. People can be so cruel and brave from behind the keyboard; they are cowards and they are irrelevant. Hold your head high; you know your heart and your soul, and the vast majority of us can too. Big hugs. 🖤
Hello Pretty Lady 💕 i love you so much your are one of my top 3 youtubers you are an amazing and genuine woman . I'm am so happy i stumbled upon you awhile back 💕 i also want to send my deepest condolences to you and your family for Diesel
Sadly I missed the video. I'm in Australia so it was privatised by the time I got up and on here. How ANYONE can think you are anything but the beautiful, sweet soul you are is revolting to me. You did nothing wrong Mel. I'm so happy your grandma has some peace of mind now. Bless her heart and bless you too gorgeous. I got very reared up at the end. Never apologise for who you are Mel. If your subs don't know where your heart is then they're not looking at anything other than your aesthetic which of course is exquisite. Jealousy is a curse.. Shame on them! Lots love xXx ❤️
I am really glad that this much come together to help your grandma ❤ this is truly the beauty of nice and lovely people helping each other. You are a beautiful human being inside and out, and I always love to watch your Videos because of that❤❤❤❤ ( not just the make up) 🤭
Good morning, beautiful Mel!!❤️❤️❤️ I hope you have a wonderful day and that you smile often. The world needs more of your sensational smile! All my love!!😀😘
Love your look today! Beautiful as always! I cannot even imagine you scamming anyone ever. I think most of us know you have a great big sensitive heart and would never on purpose scam or hurt anyone!!
Yes much love for you Mel an yours..i love how genuinely greatful you are an truly doing it for the love of makeup an not all the PR..love watching your videos your a real sweetheart hon..💄💎😊💐
I am so happy that your grandpa is doing better, I am so sorry that you had a few people that misunderstood what you were trying to do. I wish we could have done something else and help a little more.
Mel I don’t think you would ever be deceptive if your life depended on it.. you are such a kind, lovely person. PS: I got Wayne’s gorgeous eye palette and LOVE IT.. BIG hugs for your loss with Diesel.. I know that pain.. So so sorry.
Hello Mel, I have to say that the first thing I seen when you started the video is your lip color. That is the type of color I love to wear. Because of us wearing mask I haven’t been wearing lipstick. But when I’m home or when I just feel like looking pretty I put on lipstick. My favorite lip liner is the collaboration you did with Christian Audette in the shade smooches. I love to wear it as a lipstick then I put lipgloss on top I put the Pat McGrath lipgloss Lust Gloss Brilliant a Levres and it looks just how I like my lipgloss to look on me. Thanks Mel you look beautiful as you always do. My prayers are with you & your family. Love you Mel.🙏
I made my first huda online purchase immediately after I saw you use the NYMPH highlighter for the first time! Lol, it was magnificent. Sending you lots of love and well wishes 💕
First of all: a HUGE APPLAUSE to the community for donating this amount 👏 you guys are AMAZING!!! Uhm, I went camping with my husband a couple of days after the video came out, so I've completely missed all the drama 😳 but now it makes sense why I couldn't find it when we came home last week. The people that have accused you for keeping the money to yourself, clearly don't know you 🙄 you are the kindest soul.❤
You look amazing as always, Mel. It's amazing that your grandparent's received the help they needed. I text and snapped you yesterday. Love you, ladybug H 💚
I'm sorry you are having to deal with this. For the love of God, your just tryin to help family, just like most of us would, if we the opportunity. Love you!!!!!
Good morning Mel! You've delt with some shhhh lately... I pray things get better soon. You are the sweetest and I'm sending positive vibes your way! 😊💖
I think it was a fantastic video. I just wanted to let you know it breaks my heart how some people come after you like that. How they reported your video? I just don't understand. You are trying to do a gret a good thing for your grandmother. It just baffles my mind. I'm so sorry all those things happened to you. I'm so happy you were able to raise some awesome money for your grandma! That's fantastic news! Just know there's a lot of us good people out there who are on your side, and would never do anything to go against you. I'm so sorry all those things happened to you. It absolutely breaks my heart!❤❤
Yeah that Urban Decay Hydromaniac is amazing I am so happy you tried it the finish is amazing I really love it and how it wears at the end of the day it just vanishes naturally and I am combo and I have never had any problems with it
Hey Mel!! Just want to say your serving Milla Jovovich Resident Evil vibes with this LEWK AND IM HERE FOR IT!!! Also I’m wishing your Grandma the very best and I’m so happy people stepped up to help in your time of need 💗. There is NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT!!! It takes a village 💗💗💗
Hello, sweet lady! I just watched your video; like always, you look gorgeous. As to the haters, feel sorry for them because they have no love or joy in their lives. Do NOT let them get to you; your subscribers know what a wonderful, generous, sweet lady you are. I'm so sorry for all the troubles you've been having; please know you and your family are in my prayers! You are much loved, my lady!
You are a beautiful woman. But your true beauty is your heart, you are genuine and kind and I see your loving giving spirit in so many of your actions. My prayers and thoughts are with your grandmother and family. Hold on sweet Lovebug💖🐞 the darkest hour means dawn is just on sight.
Girl you are GOLDEN! Bless your family, you have had such a load the last couple years, STAY SRTONG!!! Just dnt fabricate on our makeup,lol!!! Not that you would, trust is everything. We trust you❣❣❣
Hey Mel 💖💜 Beautiful look! That lipstick combo is 🔥 I’m so sorry that this has such a stressful time for you and your family. Sending you all love ❤️❤️❤️
😢😢😢💔💔💔I never doubted you 🥰! I’ve also been through a lot with loved ones lately so I knew you were truthful 😻. Thanks for sharing. PS-You look fabulous 😘!
I'm combo oily with dry patches, and i LOVE the UD Hydromaniac. I use a mattefying and/or sticky primer and set the primer with the lightest layer of powder, and then the Hydromaniac gives the glow and still stays in place. I love this product, and i got it in 2 shades.
Mel…I have been a long time subscriber (since nearly the beginning) and don’t comment very often yet watch you ALL the time.

I’m so happy you are loving the Urban Decay tinted moisturizer it’s one of my FAVORITES! I saw that YSL is releasing the YSL Nu face tinted moisturizer and I would love to see you review it!! It reminds me of the Urban Decay tinted moisturizer so I would love to see comparisons and what you think.
I love you Mel! Have the best day 😘
You’re the sweetest sweetheart❤️always prayers and love to your family.
People who call you a liar or deceptive, have probably such kind of personality themselves. I could see in that video how hard it was for you to ask for help or to “burden” us with your problems. You can’t fake such feelings. I wish you all the best 😘
You have done so much for me that you don’t even know…I am rediscovering makeup after a long long long depression and everything about your channel has gently guided me along this journey. I finally learned how to correctly apply eyeshadow and powder face products because of you!!! It was easy for me to donate for that reason. 🥰
Every item I’ve purchased that you recommend have become my holy grails!
I can’t be alone in my thoughts💭 💭💭💭!!!
Your make up is so flawless, I always think you can’t top what you do today. Then you post another video and look even more stunning. You look so healthy and Your skin just glows.
Naturally Beautiful 🤩
Good luck to you and your family. You’ve had so much on your plate lately and yet you always come off so optimistic. Always a pleasure to watch you. 🌈🌈
Oh honey. I wish I could just give you and your Grandma a big hug. How anyone could think you are being deceptive is Astonishing to me. Don't worry about it tho, your TRUE fans/followers would never think that of you. Much love to you and your family. ❤❤❤❤
Girl I would trust you over about 99% of people. We know you're no scammer. I'm glad you were able to help your family ❤
I am very proud of you! You do amazing things! I know that it feels like the weight of the world is crashing down on you and your family but through all of this I hope you know that you have a community of people (family, friends and of course us here on TH-cam) there to catch you! This is an extremely tough season for you but I promise you that it is a season and seasons change....
You can't be any more honest and transparent. You have good intentions and a good ❤ I wish your family the very best. I'm sorry that you have to explain yourself.
I got that tiny heart necklace when I saw it on you, and it is one of my FAVORITE necklaces. Love love love. I need them to make one in silver too!
Hope you’re doing okay ♥️. I was so sorry to see the news of your sweet dog after everything else you’ve been through lately…I know that must have been SO hard. We lost our golden retriever last year after having him for 13 years and it still hurts me to this day.
Sending all the love and positive vibes during this hard time… you will get through it. 😘
I’m so happy that we were able to help your family during this time.God Bless you and family ❤️❤️
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
I've put the Linda Hallberg new eyeshadow palette in and out my shopping basket so many times, but never picked it up. Would love to see a tutorial or even a 3 looks 1 palette video!
I’ll try but I don’t know how soon. It’s on sale on beautybay right now tho 😍
Don’t know how I missed this video! Love & miss you Mel! ❤️❤️💔
I love this look. Jewellery, makeup, everything
We love you and are praying for you and your family 💜
Mel, I'm so sorry that you've had such a trying time lately with your family health problems, your own health problems, the loss of a beloved pet. It makes me angry and sad that trolls question your integrity and caused you unnecessary stress. I, personally, have never questioned your integrity. You seem to me like a truly honest person. Sending you and your family prayers. P. S. Did you do a video on your look? It's gorgeous.
Huda has really been doing a good job of listening to her consumers. Her products get better and better because she maturely takes constructive criticism. I’ve been praying for your grandma and family 🙏
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Mel, you are the kindest soul!!! I was glad to donate to you. I knew you were honest. Please don't let a few rotten people ruin your sweetness!
Hi Mel ! I trust your opinion so much!
Can you do a cream blush ranking
Please so many new ones I don’t know where to start
Those of us that know you know you would never do anything shady or scammy. Never just know I have your back I stood up for you to people online. I will defend you just like a real life friend. Cause I’m my life you are my friend! I love you Mel! Diesel has an amazing mom!
Omg yes your eye look is perfection!!! 😍
You look amazing as always!! Your earrings are AMAZING!! You are a sweet sweet kind soul! Keep being you kiddo!!
Good people all go through tough times and do the best they can to support others through it. That’s what I saw when I initially watched your videos. The tragedies you and your family have been facing are senseless and heart-wrenching, I never thought it was deceptive or shady or anything. You could have put together a donation page, like we see all the time, to me it was all the same. They need help, people who feel they can, did help. Even if it was just by watching the video over and over.
There was no arm, no deception, no pain done. People who wants to see the bad in anything just needed a new outlet.
I’m thinking of you and wishing you some time to process all of that happened and move one peacefully. These times have been tumultuous at best for you it seems, so I wish you peace and calm, a time to heal and regain some forces ❤️
Thank you so, so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Somehow, i missed all the drama, so i' don't know what happened, but shame on anyone who came at you during such a difficult time. People can be so cruel and brave from behind the keyboard; they are cowards and they are irrelevant. Hold your head high; you know your heart and your soul, and the vast majority of us can too. Big hugs. 🖤
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! ( August 5 )Wishing you a good year filled with happy things.
You’re the best, Mel. Sending you all the hugs. 💕
Hello beautiful!
So. . Should I take off from my Sephora car the Makeup by Mario contour stick and replace It with the Anastasia contour ??
Hello Pretty Lady 💕 i love you so much your are one of my top 3 youtubers you are an amazing and genuine woman . I'm am so happy i stumbled upon you awhile back 💕 i also want to send my deepest condolences to you and your family for Diesel
Sadly I missed the video. I'm in Australia so it was privatised by the time I got up and on here.
How ANYONE can think you are anything but the beautiful, sweet soul you are is revolting to me. You did nothing wrong Mel. I'm so happy your grandma has some peace of mind now. Bless her heart and bless you too gorgeous. I got very reared up at the end. Never apologise for who you are Mel. If your subs don't know where your heart is then they're not looking at anything other than your aesthetic which of course is exquisite. Jealousy is a curse.. Shame on them! Lots love xXx ❤️
I am really glad that this much come together to help your grandma ❤ this is truly the beauty of nice and lovely people helping each other. You are a beautiful human being inside and out, and I always love to watch your Videos because of that❤❤❤❤ ( not just the make up) 🤭
Good morning, beautiful Mel!!❤️❤️❤️ I hope you have a wonderful day and that you smile often. The world needs more of your sensational smile! All my love!!😀😘
Thank you so much, beauty! Have an amazing day! XOXO
Love your look today! Beautiful as always! I cannot even imagine you scamming anyone ever. I think most of us know you have a great big sensitive heart and would never on purpose scam or hurt anyone!!

I am so happy that your grandpa is doing better, I am so sorry that you had a few people that misunderstood what you were trying to do. I wish we could have done something else and help a little more.
You all did so much more than I could have ever dreamed. It has made a huge impact. Every penny ❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you ❤️❤️❤️
Mel I don’t think you would ever be deceptive if your life depended on it.. you are such a kind, lovely person. PS: I got Wayne’s gorgeous eye palette and LOVE IT.. BIG hugs for your loss with Diesel.. I know that pain.. So so sorry.
Hello Mel, I have to say that the first thing I seen when you started the video is your lip color. That is the type of color I love to wear. Because of us wearing mask I haven’t been wearing lipstick. But when I’m home or when I just feel like looking pretty I put on lipstick. My favorite lip liner is the collaboration you did with Christian Audette in the shade smooches. I love to wear it as a lipstick then I put lipgloss on top I put the Pat McGrath lipgloss Lust Gloss Brilliant a Levres and it looks just how I like my lipgloss to look on me. Thanks Mel you look beautiful as you always do. My prayers are with you & your family. Love you Mel.🙏
Still watching, still loving your videos. ❤
I love the Huda beauty cream highlight also. I was blown away
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Good Morning Mel:))) Hope you are feeling better-Sending Heart Healing Vibes:))) Jenxoxox!
Who! What? Why? could anyone think for a second you were not being honest. OMG Mel your one of the nicest people and very honest
Welcome back. I love the lipstick 💄
I made my first huda online purchase immediately after I saw you use the NYMPH highlighter for the first time! Lol, it was magnificent. Sending you lots of love and well wishes 💕
First of all: a HUGE APPLAUSE to the community for donating this amount 👏 you guys are AMAZING!!!
Uhm, I went camping with my husband a couple of days after the video came out, so I've completely missed all the drama 😳 but now it makes sense why I couldn't find it when we came home last week.
The people that have accused you for keeping the money to yourself, clearly don't know you 🙄 you are the kindest soul.❤
Thank you! And I’m glad you were able to get out and enjoy the beautiful weather ❤️
That Wayne Goss Pearl pallette is gorgeous 😍. I jumped on buying it. Thatks for the blush tip.
You look amazing as always, Mel.
It's amazing that your grandparent's received the help they needed.
I text and snapped you yesterday.
Love you, ladybug

I think it was a fantastic video.
I just wanted to let you know it breaks my heart how some people come after you like that. How they reported your video? I just don't understand. You are trying to do a gret a good thing for your grandmother. It just baffles my mind. I'm so sorry all those things happened to you.
I'm so happy you were able to raise some awesome money for your grandma! That's fantastic news! Just know there's a lot of us good people out there who are on your side, and would never do anything to go against you. I'm so sorry all those things happened to you. It absolutely breaks my heart!❤❤

I'm combo oily with dry patches, and i LOVE the UD Hydromaniac. I use a mattefying and/or sticky primer and set the primer with the lightest layer of powder, and then the Hydromaniac gives the glow and still stays in place. I love this product, and i got it in 2 shades.
I pray all be well with you and your family and best wishes to your sweet Grandmother because I know I miss mine!!!!!
I miss you so much mel thompson ❤️💯🥰😘
