  • How to Do Classic Makeup - Tutorial & Product Info
    All too often, low budget movies will try to save money by having actresses do their own makeup. Which can be a good or a bad idea depending on the skills of the actress! Here is a basic “natural” classic make-up look that works on women of many ages. Product Info at www.uniquemonique.com/2016/04/...
    Always start with a good moisturizer. I used Oil of Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream.
    Primer keeps the shine down and makes foundation last all day. If I am shooting, I like a good High Def Foundation and have used Smashbox High Definition Healthy FX for years.
    Amazing Concealer in Medium Golden does a great job on under eye circles as well as any red spots (that seem to take forever to fade away) applied with a small concealer brush. NYX Dark Circle Correcting Concealer fixes those under eye circles with an orange tone. Or break out the heavy duty Joe Blasco Orange Highlight for really dark circles.
    Off camera face powder, just to knock down shine on a daily basis? Neutrogena Rice Powder. On camera I prefer the e.l.f. HD Powder.
    Nars Orgasm/Laguna Blush/Contour Duo. And sometimes, you just want the Orgasm. Yeah. I went there.
    Product Info: www.uniquemonique.com/2016/04/...
    Mascara is L’Oreal Voluminous Extra Volume in Carbon Black.

    I'm 25 years old and you were in my recommended and after watching several of your videos I wanted to tell you that you're an incredible woman. I love your personality. I had to subscribe. I hope you're having a great day. :)

    I love this video! As a woman in my 60s, it's refreshing to see a woman who's not 22 demonstrating the products and techniques you use to look so fabulous. Thanks for your great content and incredible beauty. You also crack me up, so that's a nice bonus. Please keep doing what you're doing!

    I accidentally stumbled upon your video and decided to watch. Rarely have I seen beautiful "mature" women creating makeup videos until now. You are absolutely beautiful and seemingly so down to earth. I have subscribed and I'm really looking forward to viewing more of your videos. You are a prime example of 50 and fabulous! I'm weary of the videos created by younger makeup "gurus" who use only high dollar brands. I admit, most of my makeup falls under that category so it was refreshing to see a high dollar model using mostly low dollar brands and achieving a high dollar look. I was also impressed with the fact that you didn't have to use 6 eye shadows to achieve your look nor did you contour! So glad I've found you - you're a breath of fresh air! Keep up the great work. I'm a fan!!!

      Kira, You might want to re-check your info on Loreal. Many years ago when I found out Loreal did animal testing I swore off any and all Loreal products and followed that up with with a very "strong" letter to them. Several years later I saw in the news in several different places that loreal made a statement that they no longer do any animal testing, apologized, and committed to absolutely no animal testing or products derived from any animal source. I waited a bit, examined their labels and did a little research, and that did seem to be the truth, so eventually I went back to using some of their products. I can't imagine that they would go backward on that knowing what a huge issue that is to so many people. If I am wrong or if you have found out something new, please share because I would definitely want to know that.

      Hey Robyn...my words exactly. Her down to earth quality is so refreshing in an industry overwrought with somewhat pretentious personalities and attributes...Something like that. Anyways, I enjoyed her presentation as well. As you said,She truly is a prime example of 50 and fabulous.

    This video changed my life! I was wearing the SAME makeup as I did in my 20s, and I will be 60 next year! Black eyeliner and dark shadow UGH! This changed my life when I did a search for mature make up and found you and now I am hooked! Yes, it took twice as long to look like I was wearing half as much makeup but it looked amazing! I really felt like I was able to highlight my assets and downplay what was not necessary. Thank you!! You are such a great teacher!! And thank you also for now being my absolute favourite influencer!! You are a superstar!!! Gorgeous, fun, engaging, honest, and full of kindness towards your pets!! I adore you!! Thank you!!!!

I also have very fair skin so everything you said helped me a lot. Thank you! Your make up is amazing thank you for the close ups on the type you use:)

PLEASE keep making these videos...you’re REALLY good with makeup & I love that you don’t use only high end expensive products! You just seem very honest, down to earth & you are, without a doubt, very talented! ❤️👍🏻

  • @JanuaryGirl1
    @JanuaryGirl1 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I'm 36 and just don't have the tight, poreless skin loads of younger ladies do. A lot of the tutorials I've been watching go full monty on the makeup, and I don't have time for that, either. I love how engaging your video is, talking to the camera like it's a human being projects the same feeling through to the viewer. You have a lot of the same "problem" issues I do, the dark circles and "spots". I was glad to find a mature face tutorial that I could actually use. Thanks!

  • @carolyngriffin6458
    @carolyngriffin6458 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Years ago, I started doing my eye makeup before my foundation and powder. Saves a lot of cleanup and redoing - from eyeshadow fallout and the occasional liner or mascara boo-boo. I really like what you're doing with your tutorials, and look forward to watching more of them. Cheers.

  • @dali71au
    @dali71au 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    First time I watch your video. What I like the most is you are just sooo down to earth. You don't need nothing more than a $2 brush because you already count with the most valuable quality: acceptance. You have learned to accept what you have and what you won't have, no need to fake. Being humble and authentic is what it makes you beautiful!.

  • @isabelrose88
    @isabelrose88 6 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I am elated to report how this tutorial completely transformed my look from "wah!" to "fab!" in just one trial sitting after buying most of the products you recommended. (How do I post a before and after pic on here? ...) Very grateful too is my husband as I had scheduled a make-up session with my hair stylist and cancelled just a few days before my appointment (saving a few $$ scores points with the man every time!). I love how you relate to issues your audience has and deliver your information with such natural poise and overall simplicity. I look forward to tuning into your other Utube posts. Thanks for all the tips and representing some of women's most important self-improvement issues. Cheers! - Bella
    BTW: I've been using the Boomstick product line for a couple of years and absolutely LOVE IT! And of course I will continue to do my easy 3min Boomstick Wow Look from time to time. However, my reason to upgrade from "natural mature beauty" to "super-natural mature beauty" is I wanted a upgrade to looking and feeling like a $BILLION$ bucks ... equatable to my 20s when I used to 'do-it-up' with various facial products following my very 1st make-over. Most of my life I have done mostly cheap and super simple "look lifts" with cheap make-up lines consisting of: eye shadow, eye liner, mascara, blush and lipstick - DONE! Completely bypassing the moisturizer, primer, concealer, foundation and setting powder. Now I'm ready to WOW mostly myself cuz I ain't getting any younger! Again, many thanks, sweet lady, and all the best to you always for sharing.

I'm a huge animal lover and currently have 4 dogs and 3 cats, all are rescues.

    Beautiful! I worry about young women and teenagers these days. Thanks to TH-cam they think they can't leave the house without 2-3 thick layers of foundation, buckets of concealer, loads of powder "baked" on the face, heavy contouring & highlighting, liquid liner & false eyelashes...SLAVES to some false idea of beauty (and the makeup industry is LOVING it). Love you keeping it real, those makeup tools/brushes are as real as it gets, haha!

Paint brushes are just good, if not better than actual makeup brushes.

    Thanks Monique! I never learned to do my own makeup and I worked for many years in a "masculine" job where makeup wasn't practical. I've done mascara, lipstick and coverup on blemishes. That's all. Now I'm retired. I'm 56 years old. I've been buying makeup from Sephora and experimenting for a few years but I, honestly, had no clue. This tutorial makes it totally doable for me. I think you did a great job. I wouldn't have guessed it was your first!

    i just bought make up at Ulta (first time ever ) and I'm 45 years old so I went on youtube to see if there was anything written about the spf 50 and I found so many... oh my! so many channels with incredibly beautiful women showing all kinds of fun stuff. Here i found you. You are absolutely adorable .. I will stay tuned. Thank you for being so real

    Lately Im really enjoying watching tutorials from more mature women and their more realistic approach. That overly highlighted and sculptured face is not for everyone/every day. Very pretty.

    Best tutorial I’ve seen (and I think I’ve seen hundreds!). You look amazing and you’re hilarious to boot. 🤣 Thank you so much for showing us “mature” women that we can wear makeup without looking old! (Referring to other videos I’ve watched where the women doing the tutorials have said ridiculous things like that).

    You are so stunning! I have red/strawberry blonde hair and always wondered how I would transition to gray when I get older. I only hope to look as stunning as you do. Really enjoyed this video, I am a self taught makeup artist and my boyfriend's mom has been asking me for help with her makeup and I saw this video and decided to watch it. Glad I did, you've got yourself a new subscriber here!

      I agree. I love your hair color. How can i get it. I got my long hair cut and quit coloring but Im thinking of using a color remover first then coloring it gray, Ill be 59 this year and my sisters have done it. So why not ?

    • @maryt3744

      I'm going to jump in here about hair color. I'm a color educator and I can't stress enough to not handle your color by yourself. If you want to go from tinted hair, there really are only two effective ways:
      1. Grow out hair to the point where you have at least 2-3" root area. Have your stylist do a very heavy foil highlight and lighten the tinted hair ONLY(not any of the new outgrowth) to as close to pale yellow (which is close to white) as possible. This will give you a canvas upon which she can then apply a grey toned hair color. Know this: very few stylists know how to formulate grey color. it's tricky! Most turn either blue-ish or lavender. Personally, I would stop women who have beautiful highlights and ask for their stylist's name. After you hear the same name 2-3 times, make a consultation appointment. Make sure if she suggests a highlight that you tell her you don't want your new growth touched. It will be a backward step, even though it won't exactly match the final results on the ends. You're looking for something to get you by, but your goal is to wear your natural color, so I can't stress enough, don't let anyone touch your roots. Also, if she charges a lot, she probably has a lot of experience and goes to extended education classes. it will be worth it.
      2. Grow out your hair and if your tinted or natural hair is light enough, purchase shampoo and conditioner that has pigment in it. Use those to shade the "incoming" grey/white hair so it blends with the rest.As soon as you get enough outgrowth to cut your hair into a stylish short hairstyle, just do it! You may have to a "detox" treatment to remove the temporary color from the color/shampoo, but it's not a big deal.
      Lastly, DON'T touch your own hair or attempt any sort of fix. This is a tricky thing to do even for many stylists. Sorry to hijack this conversation, but these tips will prevent some possible major disasters. Once it's all grown out, if you have more grey than white, then you can have a GOOD stylists weave in some bright white pieces to remove the dullness steely grey can often cast, and it will also brighten up your eyes and complexion.
      I enjoyed the video. Many thanks!

      What happens when a person uses a color remover and then colors their hair a different color?

    You are gorgeous. And your fave makeup trick is mine, too. I recently (in the last couple of years) have discovered what a profound difference tightlining the upper water line of my eyes makes. It adds a LOT of definition without being obvious. In fact, when I first started, my friends would comment on my eyes, but couldn't pinpoint what the difference was. That's a win-win in my book. Love your vids.

    You look stunning even without make-up. Being 50 and impatient, but still somewhat caring about my looks, this tutorial is perfect for me. Thank you. One of the benefits of being 50 is that you've had time to gain some self distance, that's what experience does to you (or should do). But we do want to look pretty :)
