Aging naturally is beautiful but unfortunately overseen as neglect nowadays. Absolutely nothing wrong with white hair and wrinkles. I rather see wrinkles than a plastic face. And I usually think wrinkles show your true age, while I might add an extra 10 years to a Botox face because I just think if they are hiding they may be older. Reverse psychology 😂
I like that you dig deeper about what it means to be feminine. I’m a full-time diesel mechanic, part-time truck driver, and part-time farmer in addition to being a wife and homemaker. Many of the superficial “feminine” ideals are not practical for me (long hair, manicured fingernails, etc.) You have given me many excellent ideas to be a woman while still succeeding in a “man’s” job.
Stacy your story and life are such an inspiration! Congratulations on all your hard work, and thank you for sharing your perspective. I’m so happy that you’re here 😘🤗
I just turn 36 and my idea of feminine is embracing natural. No surgeries, Botox, makeup, polish, I even ditch the dye. I’m embracing my grays, my clear skin, my natural nails. I could say that I am lazy but I thank god for being blessed with good hair and skin. Maybe he knew I was too lazy to keep up with hard work, haha but the truth is I appreciate Natural! Our culture is way too superficial and vain and somehow I fail to embrace that kind of female behavior.
Kat- thank you for your concern. My husband is a truck driver. He makes a good wage, as do I, but we both work hard to buy this farm and get rid of the mortgage so I can “retire” early and be a full-time farmer and homemaker. It’s our choice to work hard now, so we don’t need to work so hard when we are older.
Suzannah Omonuk it’s actually making me sad that this I making you happy because it should be a normal thing you know what I mean? Anyway it’s good that she does this I’m a huge fan of people who CELEBRATE diversity ♥️ #onelove
Lil Chicken lol, what if we just be happy that she’s filled the video with all types of diversity and not bring down others. A lot of the time black women are shown but not really darker skinned woman, I think that what she was commenting on (the overall diversity as well)
Honestly I think this is being too sensitive. I'm a black girl, and I swear to God it irritates me how black people always want a badge for being black. Black this, black that.. We're in 2020...let go of that color card... We're over it. I'm trying to say this in the most respectful way, I hate championing victim hood
Suzannah Omonuk r u kidding? Darker skinned ladies are freakin gorgeous! Especially when u hv that highlighter going on ur cheekbones & it pops! God I wish I had such perfect skin. 😥 its 2020 so many beauties in so many different colors these days. So many ethnicities mixed together even! Its beautiful. 🤩🤩
I fell into a deep depression in 2013 and i let myself go ...i don't even look at my nails or hair anymore. You and this channel sparked something in me. I'm 34 now and want to give myself all the love and care i've neglected myself since that traumatic event in 2013.
You are on the way out. It will happen that one day you are back to yourself.keep going. I went into a depression in 2010 and slowly getting back to myself over the past years, and all of the sudden I see how far I have come and how healed I am . One day after the other, it is coming back . And you will be proud of yourself. I wish you well and a faster recovery than me. Give yourself time. You will be good
defiantlypink I I would love to hear any recommendations from you for other TH-camrs who talk about femininity or who are good examples, I’m really looking for more women of color to follow specifically!
“Work with who you are” YES! Thank you! We need to encourage each other to be better versions of ourselves with our God given beauty! All of us have our own beauty that makes us unique ❤️
Thanks for being a true feminine page. It is a hassle to find channels on femininity that don't have a condescending person shaming single mothers, plus-sized ladies, and older women and isnt about how to attract sugar daddies or men bashing. Most of us just want to learn how to be more graceful without any agenda. It is rough in these TH-cam streets😔
@@amandacrichton6268 Especially knowing how many young girls don't have feminine role models to look up to, so they turn to the internet. Some channels are telling them to purposely use a baby voice to manipulate men😬
I have to point out the obvious. You should be commended for never shaming anyone in any way, regardless of age, race, gender, religion, or any other category that does nothing but divide us. In a way, it's too bad you want to be a mother and homemaker. We need women like you in politics! You could set such an excellent example of how to be all-inclusive, joyful, fair and never, ever shaming anyone for anything. You are the epitome of tact and diplomacy. As well as class and style. And let's not forget feminine and ladylike! Keep up the good work, girl. I wish you had been around when I was your age, lol.
Your channel is growing SO fast! Proof that women are craving a return to a "tasteful" femininity. Once you become aware of it, you can't help noticing either a complete lack of it or oversexualized version of it EVERYWHERE! So happy for your success, Caitlyn.❤
I 100% agree classic femininity is coming back! Speaking of which, what happened to all the boys? Theres not many good Male role models out there anymore, and honestly some of these feminists are tooo much
I love the fact that showed Dreads. You have no idea how amazing that is that you included a black woman with dreads. Us Black women are usually left on the backburner. Thank you for including us
I have never seen a TH-camr up and come SO fast without doing something “troll like” or ridiculous. You’ve reached 64k in just a few months!?! Wow!!! That is a true testament to the validity of what you’re saying. You’re doing amazing things God bless xxx
First off as a Black girl it is so important that I see diversity in these videos because it shows who the audience is. You have added diversity and inclusion and I appreciate that soooooo much!!!!!
WOW, Mrs. Midwest, the content you create is so traditional yet very contemporary! The diverse selection of women in the pictures perfectly matches today’s world and is just perfect😊 You are an outstanding communicator and presenter. I wish your show would be on TVs all over the world 😊 Greetings from Prague, Czech Republic!
Great tips! For makeup advice I suggest checking out Lisa Eldridge's channel if you haven't already. She's a professional, keeps things simple, and is very classy. I find it interesting that professional makeup artists lean towards more simple looks, not like the self-proclaimed makeup artists of Instagram and TH-cam. Lol
It was so heartwarming and such a pleasant surprise to see such diverse photos of models with different hairstyles, cuts andd ethnicities, especially as a lady who wears a hijab it's so rare to be include so this very thoughtful and considerate of you, I really appreciate it!
Noemi Alvarado Yes! Wayne Goss and Lisa Eldridge (I’m not sure if I spelled her surname correctly; pardon my errors, if any.) are wonderful for anyone wanting to avoid that heavy red carpet makeup. I’d also recommend some of Charlotte Tilbury’s tutorials.
Thank you for saying that! I’m working on wearing my color season “light spring” more often... I think it makes a difference! Sending you love my sister! 🥰
"Choose a style that blesses your face the most", what a beautiful and freeing perspective! Now the challenge is to believe that we're beautiful. I appreciate the wide range of photos (age, race, ethnic diversity) that you used. Thank you for sharing!
I love the tip that you gave regarding our nails. I want people to pay attention to me. Not, how loud my nail color is. I always loved nude colors for my manicures.
I wear a hijab the head scarf for modesty reasons and i feel very old hollywood with it sometimes. I like how protected i feel in it. But when i am home with my husband and have time its lovely to do up your hair . Your gorgeous by the way . Love your tips . Much love nina from england x
Yes!!! I am almost jealous of women when I see them in hijabs, and/or wearing long flowing layers. It's so powerful, and elegant and feminine. I always want to compliment these women but I don't want to seem like a creep or something. You really nailed it though-- it has an old Hollywood feel. It's all about being confident, composed, self-contained, and graceful. ❤️
I love the way you always include ppl of different ethnic backgrounds and ages in your videos! Such an easy thing to do but it makes such a huge difference, as a young black lady I really admire the inclusivity on your channel. Your advice has helped me gain confidence you are such a good role model💕💕💕💕
I never thought I'd get a tattoo ... but then I ended up with a scar shaped like a penis on my knee :( VERY unfortunate coincidence but people would point it out and giggle about it and scar removal is super expensive. I never wanted to wear a dress or show my legs. Then I decided to get a tattoo and my tattoo artist designed a piece of art that suits me perfectly and also fits the area of my body really well. SO now I have a daisy and several cherry blossoms in a field sketch style with pastel colours instead of a red penis shape and I feel so much more comfortable now. Even my grandma who was against tattoos loves it because she thinks it suits me so well. I am just so happy that I found such an amazing artist. She knew exactly what would look good on me and she covered the scar so well that it might as well be gone! A great tattoo artist will be able to create art to flatter anyone. She was also very aware that I act and that it was my first tattoo and advised me to use light colours so it could be easily covered if I needed to conceal it for a role.
We have this saying in Brazil that taste is not something we discuss. Somethings we may never agree on. I can see the art behind it but I believe skin is beautiful and covering it is not as pretty. However, when skin has been damaged to cover it with a piece of art might be a nice option. I think scars can be beautiful too, but again that is not up for discussion lol. The point is, tattoos over face, neck and arms can be very distracting and unfortunately one will be judge without speaking a word for just simply having it. Not that we are not judge already simply by breathing 😏
I'm so happy you held fast against everyone paid to bring you down! You are real with real content that I absolutely love, and a good, kind person. Please never give up!! I love hearing from you! You are a light in this dark world. Some would taint and destroy what women truly are. Thank you for bringing that natural beauty and loveliness in women back!
I just want to say that I appreciate so much how positive and respectful you are toward ALL women, not just those who look like you or believe what you believe. You are so articulate and so kind in how you speak about femininity and being ladylike. In the past, I have had a very complex relationship with feminity, especially makeup, first overusing it to hide myself and becoming so dependent that I would wear it every day, even if I was staying home sick from school. I then stopped wearing it completely and eventually became very offput by people who preferred more traditional femininity and makeup because I myself had such a complicated past with it and because it is often presented in a way that seems unattainable to me. Within the past year or so I have really become myself, and just recently I discovered your channel. I have never felt so welcome to embrace my femininity in the way that I want to. Your presentation of the concept of femininity is so loving, positive, and inclusive. And that is so powerful and it is helping to radically shift the way I see myself and my femininity. I have ALWAYS loved being feminine, BUT I also used being overly feminine (tons of makeup and more revealing outfits) to hide my true self. I think that many women still do this and could benefit from watching your videos. Anyways this is a weird rant and my first ever youtube comment I think but I appreciate your videos and all of the insight that you have on femininity and what it means to be a lady!
Thank you for sharing your story! I know so many women have struggled with very similar issues. It can be so easy to hide from femininity or even use femininity to hide ourselves and our inner beauty. I am so happy you are falling into a fresh perspective about all of this and working on your own journey. Yes all women have access to femininity because it is naturally within us all, although it often looks very diverse and different when put into action!! Sending you love!
I love love when you include a ton of photos like this. I appreciate the diversity as a woman of color myself but also just the variety of styles to really capture femininity in so many different ways!
Boss Baby Fuyuhiko you might be able to fine some. The one I use, I use the darkest color :( I wish they had darker tones in the brand I like. I haven’t tried or looked at others though.
Okay, I found your channel about 3-4 days ago and I'm pretty sure I've binged like 95% of your videos at this point. I have fallen in love with your content and message and I really appreciate the work you put into these videos! I like to think I've always been a decently feminine woman, but your videos have made me realize how I've kind of fallen off the wagon a little bit. But the best part is that you give these measurable little tips to find your way back to femininity, and I just want you to know how much I truly appreciate that! You're amazing Caitlin! ❤️
this is the kindest! We can totally have a real world impact on our families, friends, and communities when we embrace femininity and grow into our skills and individuality! How exciting that would be! 😍😍
I really like the colors of your face and hair and eyebrows and eyelashes and liner in this video. The colors complement and are harmonious and more closely reflect the level of contrast in your own natural coloring; warm not harsh.
I love how when she was talking about hair she Included a girl with a headscarf ❤️ That definitely drew me to watch your other videos and subscribe I felt like you were involving all women from all cultures and backgrounds , that’s what femininity is about 🌸
Another great video. I recently had someone ask me if I am working. And their question made me feel a little bad because I can tell it was from a place of not caring concern. As well as judgment. I love being a housewife and a homemaker. You have inspired me. I was worried as to what people might think. My family has even asked me why am I not working. I tell them I love being a homemaker. Yes we are on a budget. But we are making it work. Thank you so much for all your videos. Even my fiance like your videos. Have a blessed day.
I love her. That pink really made her eyes pop. One way to kinda make it look less juvenile for her would be to make it a more rose gold-tone or make it like ombre with a blonde color. I loved the pink on her.
Your tips and tricks are just really, really, different and unique to the content that I see on TH-cam. I love this classic lady approach, and for some DARN reason, it just really soothes these anxieties that are constantly growing with all these new beauty standards, that we see on YT, instagram, fb. I've never felt beautiful showing my body off scandalously, or covered in 8 inches of makeup, or conforming to a standard that overshadows who I really am; It's always been when I feel elegant and classy, that's how I feel the most beautiful and SEEN. For people to see my soul! One end of the spectrum is feeling ugly, unkempt, unattractive, sloppy, and the other side of the spectrum is feeling gawked at, cat-called, superficial, piled with makeup, and conforming to another's image. Thank you for reminding us of that gorgeous happy medium where we can be ourselves: Just the step up that WE desire, not someone else's definition of a step up. Also: thank you thank you thank you for showing pictures of different cultures; being of Filipino-Indian descent, it makes my heart have absolute butterflies.
I love this. I think so many of us get overwhelmed with the amount of things we have to do in a day (work, wife duties, personal goals) that sometimes we opt out of doing these types of things. But the simplicity in the things you listed is so simple and can easily be integrated to just upgrade our femininity just that much more. Loved this Caitlin, thank you!
I love your channel. I’m an engineer as well as an mma fighter so I often find myself in environments where women don’t really care about the way they look. I do have a couple tattoos and unnatural hair color but I really appreciate tips on grooming, hairstyles and clothing because I’ve always admired that look. I love looking like a lady in my own way and I think that’s what’s most important, taking all this tips and using them in your own way. 💕
I normally don’t comment but I had to stop this video and tell you that you are amazing ❤️ I appreciate your videos because there is a real message behind it and actually helpful. You are so kind and as you talked about ladylike hair but still put a pic with a hijabi, I was amazed. Thank you for your videos ❤️ we need more people like you on TH-cam ✨
Thank you for the diverse examples. This is one of the first times I watch your videos and to see women who look like me a few minutes in... I’m sold. You got a new subscriber.
Loved this! You articulate your message so well and I love how inclusive you are by mentioning different cultures and the diversity in the pictures you use! Much love 💓
Thank you so much for representing people of such diverse backgrounds and making the disclaimer that every culture has their own beauty ideals! Definitely going to subscribe!
I just found your channel and subscribed immediately! There’s not enough channels that talk about being a young/older classy lady and I believe so strongly in being a demure, put together woman. Reading the comments make me so happy that we are all striving to be our best selves! Thank you darling!
I don't understand why people criticize her... she doesn't force her opinions on anyone, she doesn't imply that there is one type of beauty (regarding race, weight, etc), and she's super sweet!
I really appreciate the representation of different cultures. Many cultures are never mentioned or represented in beauty videos which is truly tragedy, but this video should be a precedent for others. Thank you. I actually got a little teary.
Seeing the diversity in your video made me understand how little diversity there is everywhere else. From different skin colors to different ages. Diversity looks so much better ❤️
You are BY FAR the Most inclusive of all possible viewers, of any influencer i have ever seen. This video and the wide range of women that you showed was impressive. Sadly this is how everyone should be and I shouldn’t have to acknowledge someone for doing what should be done as standard, but everyone doesn’t do what they should. I just wanted to acknowledge you for being above the curve.
Ok I just had to stop the video before I finish watching it because I have to say: the color of this top looks so so gorgeous on you!!! So beautiful wow! Love you!! ❤️
This is the first video of yours I happened to come across. I was so happy to see all the diverse photos you included in your video, and then super happy to see a photo of a beautiful woman wearing a hijab. I am a hijabi and so really appreciated that you included that in ! With us hijabis, we love to maintain and care for for our hair as it’s super important to us too, alongside the way we experiment and wear the hijab. Subscribed right away and I’m spending my evening with a cup of tea and binge watching your videos x
Love this video! Thank you for providing inclusive models as well; I really appreciate it! Also, you are spreading the natural Disney princess vibe which I love!!!!
I absolutely loved that you put a picture of a lady with a headscarf. Love your content! A new sub because you included people like me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! ❤
I wasn't sure that I was going to like this but she did an awesome job! This presents being ladylike from the perspective of complimenting yourself and who you are instead of impressing others
As a latina with skin that naturally tans easily, I never understood why tanning is seen as something to avoid. I just let my skin do it's thing and I refuse to hide under an umbrella to achieve what on me looks "anemic". Vitamin D deficiency is not cute and sun in moderation is healthy. If the sun is too strong I put sunscreen but I don't avoid the sun like the plague ❤
the style inclusivity, gender inclusivity, and the racial inclusivity we lovvvee and a modern take on what a "lady looks like" girl I love you keep doing this
and by gender the fact that she mentions boys like and have long hair and women like and have long hair neither of which make you feminine it's how you carry it
I love how you include photos of older women its so uncommon to see in beauty videos.. older women are beautiful too!
Yes. So striking
Aging naturally is beautiful but unfortunately overseen as neglect nowadays. Absolutely nothing wrong with white hair and wrinkles. I rather see wrinkles than a plastic face. And I usually think wrinkles show your true age, while I might add an extra 10 years to a Botox face because I just think if they are hiding they may be older. Reverse psychology 😂
Naiane omg😂you’re right!
So true. I’ve always admired their crown of white hair when they still put effort and it just makes me want to grow mature the way they do.
Indeed. She is also including so many ethnic and indigenous beauties. Love that detail.
I love how she is showing pictures from different cultures
And different generations too!
One reason to subscribe
Some leftists nut jobs are trying to cash out.😆
I totally agree. 😊 Every woman has her own brand of charm and is beautiful in her own way. Each queen wears a different crown.

I am so appreciative of Mrs. Midwest’s diverse selection of model pics for her examples. I’m here for this! Love it!!!

It was so heartwarming and such a pleasant surprise to see such diverse photos of models with different hairstyles, cuts andd ethnicities, especially as a lady who wears a hijab it's so rare to be include so this very thoughtful and considerate of you, I really appreciate it!
I recommend Wayne Goss' channel for make up tips if your'e looking for something that is not Instagram glam make up.
Noemi Alvarado Yes! Wayne Goss and Lisa Eldridge (I’m not sure if I spelled her surname correctly; pardon my errors, if any.) are wonderful for anyone wanting to avoid that heavy red carpet makeup. I’d also recommend some of Charlotte Tilbury’s tutorials.
Agree for Wayne !
I totally agree! I love how classy he is when it comes to makeup.
Agree! He is awesome, no one needs to wear as much makeup as they think they do when they watch some of the ‘beauty gurus’
I also recommend Aly Art
You look radiant, pink is definitely your colour 🌞 thank you for a yet another super positive and inclusive video, much love xx
Thank you for saying that! I’m working on wearing my color season “light spring” more often... I think it makes a difference! Sending you love my sister! 🥰
"Choose a style that blesses your face the most", what a beautiful and freeing perspective! Now the challenge is to believe that we're beautiful.
I appreciate the wide range of photos (age, race, ethnic diversity) that you used. Thank you for sharing!
I love the tip that you gave regarding our nails. I want people to pay attention to me. Not, how loud my nail color is. I always loved nude colors for my manicures.
I wear a hijab the head scarf for modesty reasons and i feel very old hollywood with it sometimes. I like how protected i feel in it. But when i am home with my husband and have time its lovely to do up your hair . Your gorgeous by the way . Love your tips . Much love nina from england x
U wear a hijab? Inside the house?
Yes!!! I am almost jealous of women when I see them in hijabs, and/or wearing long flowing layers. It's so powerful, and elegant and feminine. I always want to compliment these women but I don't want to seem like a creep or something. You really nailed it though-- it has an old Hollywood feel. It's all about being confident, composed, self-contained, and graceful. ❤️
I love my nose piercing and my small tattoos. I feel like they enhance my beauty and make me an individual
I agree. I also feel that vibrant nails and hair aren't necessarily "juvenile" as she describes but can be feminine if worn the right way.
J yeah I agree
I love the way you always include ppl of different ethnic backgrounds and ages in your videos! Such an easy thing to do but it makes such a huge difference, as a young black lady I really admire the inclusivity on your channel. Your advice has helped me gain confidence you are such a good role model💕💕💕💕
The moment you've said ''work with your culture'' was the moment Ive subscribed! I love how you emphasize this
You are so beautiful and wise. Always look forward to watching your videos!
thank you for being here my sister!! 😘😘
Personally I think tattoos are beautiful even on old people (it depends on the type of tattoo, the nice ones look like accents to the skin)
I never thought I'd get a tattoo ... but then I ended up with a scar shaped like a penis on my knee :( VERY unfortunate coincidence but people would point it out and giggle about it and scar removal is super expensive. I never wanted to wear a dress or show my legs. Then I decided to get a tattoo and my tattoo artist designed a piece of art that suits me perfectly and also fits the area of my body really well. SO now I have a daisy and several cherry blossoms in a field sketch style with pastel colours instead of a red penis shape and I feel so much more comfortable now. Even my grandma who was against tattoos loves it because she thinks it suits me so well. I am just so happy that I found such an amazing artist. She knew exactly what would look good on me and she covered the scar so well that it might as well be gone! A great tattoo artist will be able to create art to flatter anyone. She was also very aware that I act and that it was my first tattoo and advised me to use light colours so it could be easily covered if I needed to conceal it for a role.
We have this saying in Brazil that taste is not something we discuss. Somethings we may never agree on. I can see the art behind it but I believe skin is beautiful and covering it is not as pretty. However, when skin has been damaged to cover it with a piece of art might be a nice option. I think scars can be beautiful too, but again that is not up for discussion lol.
The point is, tattoos over face, neck and arms can be very distracting and unfortunately one will be judge without speaking a word for just simply having it. Not that we are not judge already simply by breathing 😏
@@purelovexist offtop but we have this saying in Poland as well😀
Thank you!!!!!!! Ive been trying to find a comment about tattoos 💜
The thing with tattoos is that they're usually influenced by trends and with the time they can start to look outdated
I love that you encourage women to do what’s best for them personally! There is no cookie cutter version of a lady
I'm so happy you held fast against everyone paid to bring you down! You are real with real content that I absolutely love, and a good, kind person. Please never give up!! I love hearing from you! You are a light in this dark world. Some would taint and destroy what women truly are. Thank you for bringing that natural beauty and loveliness in women back!
I just want to say that I appreciate so much how positive and respectful you are toward ALL women, not just those who look like you or believe what you believe. You are so articulate and so kind in how you speak about femininity and being ladylike. In the past, I have had a very complex relationship with feminity, especially makeup, first overusing it to hide myself and becoming so dependent that I would wear it every day, even if I was staying home sick from school. I then stopped wearing it completely and eventually became very offput by people who preferred more traditional femininity and makeup because I myself had such a complicated past with it and because it is often presented in a way that seems unattainable to me. Within the past year or so I have really become myself, and just recently I discovered your channel. I have never felt so welcome to embrace my femininity in the way that I want to. Your presentation of the concept of femininity is so loving, positive, and inclusive. And that is so powerful and it is helping to radically shift the way I see myself and my femininity. I have ALWAYS loved being feminine, BUT I also used being overly feminine (tons of makeup and more revealing outfits) to hide my true self. I think that many women still do this and could benefit from watching your videos. Anyways this is a weird rant and my first ever youtube comment I think but I appreciate your videos and all of the insight that you have on femininity and what it means to be a lady!
Thank you for sharing your story! I know so many women have struggled with very similar issues. It can be so easy to hide from femininity or even use femininity to hide ourselves and our inner beauty. I am so happy you are falling into a fresh perspective about all of this and working on your own journey. Yes all women have access to femininity because it is naturally within us all, although it often looks very diverse and different when put into action!! Sending you love!
i love how she starts off the video with associating femininity with culture and background. definitely felt more included
yay for the girl in the headscarf! Mrs.Midwest is such a sweetheart. Thank you always for your wonderful advice.
I love love when you include a ton of photos like this. I appreciate the diversity as a woman of color myself but also just the variety of styles to really capture femininity in so many different ways!
I recommend a BB cream for a natural look. : ) it has light coverage and just makes you look smooth and even toned..
Yesss :) I use NYX bb cream and then use a concealer on the lower cheeks and under eye. It looks so much better than a full face of makeup
Tika Moo ooohhh I use 100% pure, just by itself though. I love that it has SPF.😍
@@sunbeam3658 I'm spf crazy lol. I wear sunscreen in the winter.
Do they have bb creams in dark colors?
Boss Baby Fuyuhiko you might be able to fine some. The one I use, I use the darkest color :( I wish they had darker tones in the brand I like. I haven’t tried or looked at others though.
Okay, I found your channel about 3-4 days ago and I'm pretty sure I've binged like 95% of your videos at this point. I have fallen in love with your content and message and I really appreciate the work you put into these videos! I like to think I've always been a decently feminine woman, but your videos have made me realize how I've kind of fallen off the wagon a little bit. But the best part is that you give these measurable little tips to find your way back to femininity, and I just want you to know how much I truly appreciate that! You're amazing Caitlin! ❤️
I love that you upload on mondays, because otherwise it would be the worst day of the week
Wow I love how cultured you are!!! You should be very proud of yourself.
Is that you in the pfp? You're very pretty.
I hope your channel gets the biggest sub count on youtube and causes a feminine revolution ! :D Much love!
this is the kindest! We can totally have a real world impact on our families, friends, and communities when we embrace femininity and grow into our skills and individuality! How exciting that would be! 😍😍
The feminine revolution is MUCH needed. I have so much to work on with myself, to say the least.
I really like the colors of your face and hair and eyebrows and eyelashes and liner in this video. The colors complement and are harmonious and more closely reflect the level of contrast in your own natural coloring; warm not harsh.
I love how when she was talking about hair she Included a girl with a headscarf ❤️ That definitely drew me to watch your other videos and subscribe I felt like you were involving all women from all cultures and backgrounds , that’s what femininity is about 🌸
Another great video. I recently had someone ask me if I am working. And their question made me feel a little bad because I can tell it was from a place of not caring concern. As well as judgment. I love being a housewife and a homemaker. You have inspired me. I was worried as to what people might think. My family has even asked me why am I not working. I tell them I love being a homemaker. Yes we are on a budget. But we are making it work. Thank you so much for all your videos. Even my fiance like your videos. Have a blessed day.
Kennedy Walsh in the "juvenile style" hair cuts omg😂
I Look Mad When I'm Dreaming I WAS COMMENTING THAT
I love her. That pink really made her eyes pop. One way to kinda make it look less juvenile for her would be to make it a more rose gold-tone or make it like ombre with a blonde color. I loved the pink on her.
Bobbi Brown makeup tutorial book helped me a lot! I like that her approach focuses on enhancing natural features, as also mentioned in this video.
IM SO HERE FOR THE INCLUSIVITY IN THIS VIDEO. THANK YOU SO MUCH, you have no idea how much that means to me!
Your tips and tricks are just really, really, different and unique to the content that I see on TH-cam. I love this classic lady approach, and for some DARN reason, it just really soothes these anxieties that are constantly growing with all these new beauty standards, that we see on YT, instagram, fb. I've never felt beautiful showing my body off scandalously, or covered in 8 inches of makeup, or conforming to a standard that overshadows who I really am; It's always been when I feel elegant and classy, that's how I feel the most beautiful and SEEN. For people to see my soul! One end of the spectrum is feeling ugly, unkempt, unattractive, sloppy, and the other side of the spectrum is feeling gawked at, cat-called, superficial, piled with makeup, and conforming to another's image. Thank you for reminding us of that gorgeous happy medium where we can be ourselves: Just the step up that WE desire, not someone else's definition of a step up.
Also: thank you thank you thank you for showing pictures of different cultures; being of Filipino-Indian descent, it makes my heart have absolute butterflies.
Thank you for including women of color in your pictures Mrs Midwest ❤
I love this. I think so many of us get overwhelmed with the amount of things we have to do in a day (work, wife duties, personal goals) that sometimes we opt out of doing these types of things. But the simplicity in the things you listed is so simple and can easily be integrated to just upgrade our femininity just that much more. Loved this Caitlin, thank you!
I love your channel. I’m an engineer as well as an mma fighter so I often find myself in environments where women don’t really care about the way they look. I do have a couple tattoos and unnatural hair color but I really appreciate tips on grooming, hairstyles and clothing because I’ve always admired that look. I love looking like a lady in my own way and I think that’s what’s most important, taking all this tips and using them in your own way. 💕
I love how you used all hair
types and all colors and all options she’s just so open and aware
I love that you include women of multiple backgrounds and cultures!
4:23 I loved it when you showed a picture with a hijabi woman , I really appreciate it ! ❤❤
I normally don’t comment but I had to stop this video and tell you that you are amazing ❤️ I appreciate your videos because there is a real message behind it and actually helpful. You are so kind and as you talked about ladylike hair but still put a pic with a hijabi, I was amazed. Thank you for your videos ❤️ we need more people like you on TH-cam ✨
So true! Dark Kohl liner around eyes is very feminine in india, nose piercing is feminine in india.
Beauty and femininity is so subjective! Love it!
That color looks so pretty on you omgg
Thank you!! I’m really trying to sort out my best colors and you are all so helpful in doing this LOL! 😘🥰
Thank you for the diverse examples. This is one of the first times I watch your videos and to see women who look like me a few minutes in... I’m sold. You got a new subscriber.
Loved this! You articulate your message so well and I love how inclusive you are by mentioning different cultures and the diversity in the pictures you use! Much love 💓
Thank you so much for representing people of such diverse backgrounds and making the disclaimer that every culture has their own beauty ideals! Definitely going to subscribe!
I always watch you while I'm cleaning my home and doing other homemaking chores, so thank you for keeping me company and keeping me inspired(: ❤️
I just found your channel and subscribed immediately! There’s not enough channels that talk about being a young/older classy lady and I believe so strongly in being a demure, put together woman. Reading the comments make me so happy that we are all striving to be our best selves! Thank you darling!
I swear, my feet look SO weird to me unless they have a coat of polish on them. It's amazing what a simple pedicure can do.
I don't understand why people criticize her... she doesn't force her opinions on anyone, she doesn't imply that there is one type of beauty (regarding race, weight, etc), and she's super sweet!
I LOVE the fact the you included locs and hijabs in this video!
I really appreciate the representation of different cultures. Many cultures are never mentioned or represented in beauty videos which is truly tragedy, but this video should be a precedent for others. Thank you. I actually got a little teary.
Seeing the diversity in your video made me understand how little diversity there is everywhere else. From different skin colors to different ages. Diversity looks so much better ❤️
You are BY FAR the Most inclusive of all possible viewers, of any influencer i have ever seen. This video and the wide range of women that you showed was impressive. Sadly this is how everyone should be and I shouldn’t have to acknowledge someone for doing what should be done as standard, but everyone doesn’t do what they should. I just wanted to acknowledge you for being above the curve.
Wonderful tips! Can you do a video on being feminine in the workplace?
I second that idea :-)
Omg yess!!!!
100% agree! That would be so helpful! 💛
yanarlee omg yes!!
please
I love how inclusive your examples are and that you explain ladylike looks different in different cultures.
Your manner of speech is so eloquent and alluring!
That lip color is STUNNING oh my god
I don't always agree with what you say and i have a very different style, but i still learn a lot thanks to your videos ! :)
Thank you so much for including women of color in your content. I can’t tell you how much it’s appreciated. ❤️
Honestly I clicked on this video with SUCH low expectations (Im sorry!) but you did such an incredible job, we need more girls like you on youtube :)
I really appreciate how you included so many different cultures and ethnicities when describing ladylike x
When she said "nails," I looked at mine and laughed. That's the one thing I've always neglected. Ahh!
including the black women with natural hair in the demonstrations actually made me tear. thank you so much! i instantly subscribed
Ok I just had to stop the video before I finish watching it because I have to say: the color of this top looks so so gorgeous on you!!! So beautiful wow! Love you!! ❤️
This is the first video of yours I happened to come across. I was so happy to see all the diverse photos you included in your video, and then super happy to see a photo of a beautiful woman wearing a hijab. I am a hijabi and so really appreciated that you included that in ! With us hijabis, we love to maintain and care for for our hair as it’s super important to us too, alongside the way we experiment and wear the hijab. Subscribed right away and I’m spending my evening with a cup of tea and binge watching your videos x
Love this video! Thank you for providing inclusive models as well; I really appreciate it! Also, you are spreading the natural Disney princess vibe which I love!!!!
So much diversity in the pictures you chose. Love it !!!!
You included a hijabi in 'hair'?!!? mA instant SUB.
seeing that you posted a new video makes me so happy! I always learn something new with you and it's really improving my life! thank you 🙏
Luiza that means so much to me!! I love learning with all of you together. Thank you for encouraging me! It really is motivating. 😊
I agree!!! I talk about her all the time!!! She literally has improved my life!!!
I FREAKING LOVE THE DIVERSE MODELS! thank you for including differently aged models with various cultural backgrounds!
Please please please don't change anything! Your channel content, videos style, editing, it's all already perfect 😍😭😭😍😍😍😍😍
I absolutely loved that you put a picture of a lady with a headscarf. Love your content! A new sub because you included people like me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! ❤
All the women featured (including you) look beautiful! xoxo
I wasn't sure that I was going to like this but she did an awesome job! This presents being ladylike from the perspective of complimenting yourself and who you are instead of impressing others
I cleared my acne by quitting processed sugar and white flours and upping my whole plant foods consumption as a whole.
As a latina with skin that naturally tans easily, I never understood why tanning is seen as something to avoid. I just let my skin do it's thing and I refuse to hide under an umbrella to achieve what on me looks "anemic". Vitamin D deficiency is not cute and sun in moderation is healthy. If the sun is too strong I put sunscreen but I don't avoid the sun like the plague ❤
the style inclusivity, gender inclusivity, and the racial inclusivity we lovvvee and a modern take on what a "lady looks like" girl I love you keep doing this
and by gender the fact that she mentions boys like and have long hair and women like and have long hair neither of which make you feminine it's how you carry it
