  • Why do I never line my eyes like this! First makeup tutorial of 2022 ladies! So exciting! Happy New Year! Many people apply eyeliner in an “even” way- but I never line my eyes like this.
    ➡️ Here’s why: When I used to model, makeup artists would line my eyes in the way I show you in the video and I hated it.
    When you line your eyes this way, it makes your eye look “rounder”, and can make you look not like yourself.
    In this makeup tutorial, I’ll show you how to outline your eyes in a way that looks effortless and beautiful.
    Watch the video to see the full tutorial!
    💬 How do you like to line your eyes? Let me know in the comments below.

    Welcome to the official TH-cam channel of Nikol Johnson!💄
    My Channel is about empowering women to show up, be BOLD, FIERCE, and Unapologetic. I talk a lot about this in my book Beauty Reinvented, available through Amazon! It's not just about going gray young it's about a powerful movement for women breaking out and having NO BEAUTY RULES.
    ➡️ None of what I show on this channel is what “mainstream” TH-cam makeup tutorials will show you. Instead of telling you to put loads of makeup on (that makes you look like a different person), I want to show you how to “reveal” the beauty that you already have and teach you how to look GREAT- while still looking like YOURSELF.
    As the years go by, many women feel that their beauty and radiance go by too. I don’t believe this. I believe you can stay beautiful, confident, and feel wonderful even if you’re past 40, 70, 80, or 100 years of age.
    ➡️ No matter your background or your age, my goal is to help you on your journey. Whether through make-up/skin-care tutorials, product reviews, or health/wellness advice.
    Are you ready to embrace your authentic self- and start making YOUR OWN BEAUTY RULES? Subscribe to my channel NOW! 🔔
    📆 I am so happy to see you each week on Wednesday's and Sunday's at 12pm EST.

    Nikol, I am 69 years old and gave up on makeup 2 years ago when I had to give up driving and "shelter in place" at home. I cannot tell you how much you have encouraged me, lightened my heart, and made me want to "start over". You have brought light back into my world and I simply adore you!

    Nikol! I’ve just this week discovered you. I am a 65 yo licensed esthetician and former esthetics instructor, and am finding your content incredibly motivating. Spending some time going through your videos and feeling a bit more hopeful about my ‘look’. I take very good care of my skin, incorporating professional skincare, and modalities like ultrasound, microneedling, RF, and microcurrent, but alas, we can only slow down the aging process … not stop it, right? Since retiring three years ago (I’ve kept my license up to date), I’ve taken to eliminating makeup 😕, except for special occasions (of which these days there are few). Your videos have sparked a bit of motivation to get back to it. Lord knows I have closets full of great products! So thank you. I will be tuning in often to, with your encouragement, keep up the momentum. Wishing you all the best 🤗

    Thank you for teaching makeup application in a practical way, Nikol!
    I worked for Lancome in the 90's, and each time we did makeovers, we always started with eyes first, followed by foundation. Shadow primer was always a must. (Lancome used to make the best shadow base, which sadly, was discontinued - I'm still mourning that loss, but i digress).
    Thirty years later, I've never deviated from this routine and was thrilled to see you teaching your viewers what I believe is the most common sense makeup hack.

Thank you for reminding me to have fun and enjoy makeup again. And I was finally able to line my eyes on the lash line. I have tried so many times.

    I am so glad you said don't go by rules. I so agree with you. I am no make artist that's for sure, but recently I posted a picture of myself on a Facebook group called going grey gracefully. I do like bold colors and because I'm grey I don't let that stop me. I know, a lot of experts say go with pink lipstick and don't line your bottom eye lid. I'm with you as we grey we need definition. Most of my feed back was positive, but a few didn't like my bold lips or grey/brown eye shadow or my lined eyes. Look I will try other peoples ideas and ways, but at the end of the day I do what makes my eye happy. I don't even know why I posted. I can be impulsive sometimes. Anyway, I just loved it when you said do what you want ladies. I think some women don't like their grey hair because of their makeup. I say the right make up for that person will totally make a difference in how you love your grey /silver on yourself. Thanks for everything.

      @@KaraLey98 😂 Me too. I think they all have some fall out but Nikol’s advice really helped. I was using a fluffy brush, swiping on the shadow too fast and making a mess. So I tried a smaller stiff brush and now carefully pat it on. Once the shadow is placed, I take a larger but still firm blush to gently wiggle (not swipe) and blend. Once I like the overall placement I use a fluffy blush to buff out edges. It works so much better. Minimal if any fall out and I get better color payoff this way. I have also tried to do my eyes first so I can clean up any fall out before applying foundation. This takes some getting use to because my eyes don’t look great with a blotchy face, but once the foundation goes on it all pulls together. Give it a try!

I spent a ton of money on skin care, hair care and cosmetics as a younger woman, and I simplified my look as I aged. Of course, you’re stunning - I mean, you looked beautiful before you put on any makeup - but you’ve encouraged me to take it up a notch and add a bit of glamor to my game!

      @@kathygreuber6593 I could never afford most of those products either, but there are great inexpensive products and brands that you can use instead. Just start by really targeting something you wish to "improve" then decide how much time and money you can spend, then go from there. The Ordinary's Lactic Acid Nikol has listed is under $8 for an ounce, and addresses several issues.
      I don't think anyone uses as many products as she addresses. I think she was just giving us a ton of options. Good Molecules, and The Inkey List are also both Vegan, cruelty free, and inexpensive like the ordinary, and they have some great products also. I also use e.l.f. and Pacifica as well and e.l.f. has some really great cosmetics as well.
      I was in a horrible car accident, so I have those additional issues as well as all the medical expenses leaving me almost broke. So, I know that it can feel like you don't have time, money, or don't feel well enough, for example, to be able to make any difference. But, you deserve to be able to engage in self care whether a millionaire or a limited income, and skin care is exactly that, self care. I really hope that I was able to offer you some encouragement. 🥰

      @@kathygreuber6593 well, it's been her job, life actually, for most of her life so I understand. She has a lot of knowledge she is able to share with us. I tend to just listen, watch, and learn because I need the guidance. I stopped using make-up for over 10 years, so I need help, and I find her more trustworthy than too many of the "beauty influencers" out there so her opinions are worthwhile as well. Some of the younger make up artists/influencers can be helpful here and there, but using four or five eyeshadow colors, contour, bronzer, blusher, highlighter, etc... is way out of my league of ability. Not to forget that my 54yo face would look ridiculous if I applied cosmetics like all these younger people. 😂 So, I just appreciate that there's someone who does understand that, and offers all of us a road map to avoid looking like a clown. 😬
      Social media can be a godsend when it comes to learning new info or improving a skill, but Holy Cow I often feel like I need a Google map app that is for navigating the TH-cam beauty community alone.
      And kudos to you because I couldn't even put on make-up in 10 or 15 minutes, let alone five!! 😳 That is impressive!
      My dingy bum thought you had replied to her "correcting dark spots" video, so this makes a lot more sense since using 15 products just for something that can be done with one didn't completely make sense. Perhaps I should have gone to bed an hour ago. 🤣🤣

    Thank you, Nikol, for share your expertise and being so very encouraging!! Love watching you. I need the encouragement and how to navigate all the changes in my face over the past few years ( I will be 73 this spring). The old techniques do not work: bring on the fierce aging!

    In most make up you tube videos a medium colour shadow is used for the crease, it being regarded as some kind of a rule. I love the fact you use a dark shadow instead. Thank you, you really prove that there are no rules in make up!

I’m looking forward to more from you. I’m 61 and I’m aging well. More wrinkles then I’d like but I know I have to embrace who I am . I’m so excited to go shopping for some new products from you ! Thank you so much for you channel, your great disposition, and enthusiasm !!

Have a great weekend, God Bless 💖

    I do the opposite of lining the entire lid the same width: I only line half my lid, progressively thinner towards the nose until it disappears just past the middle of the lid. This does the opposite of making the eye round: it elongates it and lifts the outer corner, a bit like a subtle fox eye. I am amazed that I learned to do this as a teen, it was no secret even back then (1990s) yet I see everybody and their mother line the entire lid and no one uses my trick. 🤷‍♀️

    This is the first time watching your channel and I was so interested in everything you said and mentioned, I love how you go in depth with everything you put on your face and how well you explain what the products results are and how well they are used with other facial products. You definitely have me as your new subscriber, I don’t want my comment to be so long but I am 43 years old and I’ve watched so many makeup tutorials and I’m not pleased with many, not my type of makeup style very everyday wear from day to night oh and I finally heared someone else besides me saying eyeshadow is overwhelming or intimidating I love eyeshadow but I was afraid of it but thanks to you I learned how to apply my eyeshadow with your video “ tutorial “.
