Hi Caroline, I think by far this is the freshest most pretty makeup you have ever done. I see so many makeup tutorials where they pile it on and on and I think at the end they look older. I’m so loving this simple more minimalist approach to beauty and your 70s inspired look the other week bought back so many memories to me as a little girl watching my dear Mum ‘putting her face on’. She had minimalist makeup most of the time but would ‘put her eyes on’ for nights out and special occasions. Let us all embrace this fresh look and free ourselves of endless makeup items, with the cost of living cris hitting all of us, this seems like the perfect time. Thank you for everything that you bring to us each week!
Of course the trick is this fresh natural minimalist look uses just as many products! But I'm with you- when I find the right product I stick with it. I'm not one to have 10 different blush options 😊
The older I get, the more I absolutely hate the feeling of makeup on my face. This video is right on time and I’ll be trying this today. Caroline comes thru again! ❤❤❤
Same. It's why the only makeup I use now are mascara, brow pencil and a little under eye concealer. Investing in good skincare has paid off so I no longer need foundation and powders. Which are aging anyway.
I prefer cream eyeshadow sticks and liquid washes because they end up looking better. I enjoy playing with powder shadows with brushes but it never looks as good. I think because I don’t know when to stop lol! I have too much fun ♥️
I love the look of these products. I’m 57 and love wearing makeup but have noticed that less is more on the skin as I get older. My hair is grey/white naturally now so unless I define my eyes I can look like a ghost. I just wish my eyelids weren’t so mobile as I find it really hard to do anything other than a smoky smudgy eye without it looking a mess, the colours just seem to end up being blended into one sludge colour 😂. I love Lisa Eldridge liquid lurex eyeshadow but maybe a bit too glittery for daytime. Charlotte Tilbury Colour Chameleon are also a favourite for ease of use and really enhance your eye colour.
Morning Caroline! Love the looks you create and appreciate your honest feedback/reviews of the products you're using! I especially appreciate your expressions, 'some welly'and 'lob it on the table' 😂 so relatable! X
Hi Caroline! Love an everyday natural look 😍 I much prefer cream everything! Have an embarrassing amount of cream shadows! 😅 thank you so much for this! Much love xxx
Hello Caroline, What a lovely and fresh make-up ! Whatever you try turns out beautiful on you ! The older I get, the more I like cream blushes. That vegan brand looks really great. The bronzer looks fresh and natural. Thank you, Caroline ! Have a nice week-end ! 🌸
Your skin looks amazing. Something off topic, and because you complain about your lips, have you considered fillers? I've been doing for 2 years now, in especific points of my face, and its helped a lot. Only you can tell the difference. Your features dont change. It's you but better. Just wanted to share this with you and your audience that may be curious about it😊
I love using cream makeup products on my face. Like you, I love face painting with my fingers and all the patting and blending with fingers, creating all the different shades and tones needed. I find it very relaxing and finished makeup soft and beautiful!
Really smashed it this week Caroline, loved that look, your skin looks so youthful. Thanks for the tip to use the angle brush on brows. Mine are thinning so I'm loving that tip 😊
Hello, Caroline love your channel and watch every time you post a video Love how you show to put makeup on very lightly going to try some of the makeup you show.
Love the concept of “Morning Brows”. I need that! Lately I’ve been enjoying cream shadows on my crepey eyes. I think the formulas have gotten better. I sometimes like using a matte cream under a satiny powder.
Hi Caroline! The makeup look that you created is so fresh and beautiful! I've always been interested to try Merit beauty but they don't seem to deliver to EU. xoxo
Morning Caroline At late I’ve only been using cream products as I feel they work better on my skin & look so much fresher & I never wear powder anymore Love this kind of look see you next week take care ❤
Love this Caroline. I am a little older than your mum and I’m wondering if you could try this out with her and see what her take is on it…..as in ….is this suitable for the more mature skin/person?
Hi Caroline, I love this look. If you are using sunscreen wouldn't the oil used prior to the foundation break up the layer of sunscreen? I am always trying to figure out what works over the sunscreen without breaking it down. Thanks for your thought.
That’s a lovely look Caroline….am straight off to the Merit website. Laughed at how LONG you put mascara on for, I probably get full face on in the time you did 46 coats….😂
Hi Caroline I love cream/liquid makeup for my super dry/mature skin. I always had dry/eczema prone skin and always loved cream blush - even way back in the day where there were so few choices available. Nowadays we've seen an explosion of cream/liquid makeup become available and the products last a lot longer on the skin. I haven't worn powder blush in years tbh. For a quick look eye sticks or liquid shadows are fab and I even like them paired with some powder shadow when I have more time to play. Having very dry skin can make makeup look heavy if I'm not careful, but as I have rosacea I do need some coverage. Green corrector and/or primer helps, but I still need some skin toned coverage. I used to use very sheer complexion products before the rosacea and chronic redness, but I'm having to use a more light to medium coverage nowadays unfortunately. The Merit serum is getting rave reviews as a skincare product in it's own right and it is a brand i'm curious about. Best wishes.
@@Mollyjean2014 Hi my current favourite is the Mac F&B, but I use a green corrector from vichy to disguise some of the redness. In the Summer I switch to lancome teint idole as it lasts longer on the skin through humidity. I hope that helps. Cream blushes etc are pretty much all ok on me, so there is no specific product as such.
I do like putting eyeshadow on with my fingers but I’d like to know how to perfect the art of using eyeshadow powder as a liner on top of the cream shadow to intensify a look because my eyelids are bumpy so it’s difficult to find a soft enough pencil but also get definition. I do love watching and listening to your videos they are like a comfort blanket with your gentle voice but so informative
I love this look Caroline. The peach eye cream by Gen See looks beautiful but it is out of stock. Is there anything in a similar shade that you could recommend to me please?
I love the Merit stick highlighter. And to answer your question about my favorite way to apply eye shadow, I prefer creamy sticks that I can rub in with my finger and then I might dab more shimmer on top with a glittery product. ❤
Greetings Caroline and everyone. I am absolutely in love with Merit. I use the Glow Serum every day and it’s beautiful alone and under makeup. It’s such a gorgeous texture and my skin loves the hydration. I have almost all the shades of lipstick. My favorite is Millennial. You can wear it sheer or build them up. I have the tinted lip oil in Marrakesh and it’s a lovely terracotta. The lip oil doesn’t last too long on the lips but I hear that the new lip gelees are longer lasting. I want to try the rest of the line! Thanks for sharing Caroline! Have a wonderful week ahead. ❤
I was remembering the neutrogena foundation stick. Decades ago. UK drugstore. Had loads of hyaluronic acid in it. Wonder why neutrogena stopped stocking in UK. Tangent I know but this foundation reminds me
What a beautiful look! So pretty and natural. I’ve been eyeing up Merit for some time now and heard so many great things about it. I’ve also been intrigued by a brand called Bloomeffects; a small, Dutch skincare brand based on the power of tulips and not letting them go to waste. All these great things to try come pay day!
Beautiful! Yes I agree- I'd go a little pared down with the lip for this look. Loved the lip liner tho! I love the Merit cheek balm you used but it doesn't last on me at all unless I set with powder blush, and that defeats the purpose for me!
Oh those face sticks looked so satisfying to apply Caroline. I love cream products but can't use them on my very hooded eyes, they all crease badly on me, even with primer underneath. I want a mascara that gives volume, doesn't flake or smudge. Most mascaras advertise that they don't do that but they all lie!! x
Hi Jo. I have the same problem with mascara until I got one by Bare Minerals in my beauty advent calendar. Never considered this brand before but wow it’s a beautiful product. Gives you lovely thick lashes without looking overly made up or clumpy and doesn’t flake. Easy to remove too. The Charlotte Tilbury push up lashes was impossible to remove even with waterproof eye makeup remover, it took at least three pads saturated with the stuff to get it all off 😅
@emmaboulton1 Hello, thanks for the message. I have never bought anything from Bare Minerals, despite always browsing the counter when I'm in a store. Thank you for the recommendation, have a good day 🙂
Hi Caroline I love using my fingers as you were doing,it’s what I’ve a,ways done & it’s quicker.Looks lovely,I will have to check them out as I haven’t heard of them 🙂
Hi Caroline, I'm a bit late to the party this week but your video was worth waiting to watch in peace and quiet. This look is beautiful and I will definitely be checking out the products you used. I had my eyebrows microbladed last week so I'm abstaining from makeup until they're fully healed. I hope you had a good weekend and have a good week ahead. Take care, Heidi xx
Wow thank you for this! I found out about Merit 3 years ago and now after trying Jones Road for a year and a half, I think I might like Merit (perhaps better?) I adore NUDESTIX. I love multipurpose makeup that is super natural looking.
I guess her videos are just for a very lucky wealthy minority ....everyday more minority. It is impossible for normal people to afford that . And even If i could i cant find a reason to spend so much money in products looking the same as so many others ...but a lot cheaper . As I always say, is the quality of your skin not the products..and obviously how you apply them .
It’s worth looking at reviews by others who have purchased Merit with their own money and given an honest review. The cost of the foundation stick given that there is so little product is exorbitant in comparison to other high end products. Reviews also make it clear that the products don’t last long at all and the makeup is gone within 4 hours. The lipsticks and lip tints do consistently get a good review though.
This foundation looks beautiful. Do you think it would work over the Daniel Sandler colour corrector? Or would it be too sheer? Running out of the Westman Atelier stick and love the look of this one.
This is a beautiful look Caroline and lovely if you have more even natural skin tone and don’t need much cover. Unfortunately I have too much redness on my cheek area (don’t get me wrong I love blush) in the wrong place and I have to use a reasonable cover to even it out before reapplying blush in the right place. Can you do a video on ladies like me who want a beautiful skin like foundation with reasonable cover but still want to look natural, I am over 55 with good skin but hate the redness.🥰💜
What is it with the Uk and fake tan? In Canada, I almost never see fake tan, it is always weird and considered tacky. Some people use the gentle jergens moisturizer type, which is slow, mild, and not obvious. Natural always wins. I have pale skin and my legs are fluorescent white most of the year. Not lovely, but natural. I just wear capri pants and don’t care. With the onset of sunscreen and knowledge of sun damage, no one is competing to tan. We have a full range of skin colours here, pale to black. Very freeing, really. Donald Trump is the classic fake tan. Enough said.😊
Reef - our peachy liquid eye shadow shade is just gorgeous on you. You just a little plus. Reef has become our most popular shade and it has been out of stock. Pleased to share that we will be re-stocking it next week 🧡
Hi Caroline 😊 Another beautiful look. If i’m in a hurry for work, I definitely prefer a cream eyeshadow because you can get much more of a “one and done” look very quickly. When I’ve got more time, I love playing with eyeshadow palettes and brushes though. Merit looks like a lovely brand, I’ll definitely check it out ❤xx
A nice cup of coffee and Caroline‘s very nice video! What else do you need for a lovely day? 😊 Proberbly you can do a Trinny London-products video? Just bought a lot of these things 🙈 and thought ist would be great to see and hear your opinion and the way you would use it. Thank you for your wonderful videos once more!
I think the older I have got, I'm 47 next month I prefer a real natural look, though I do still love a red lip, it's my signature. I've always looked after my skin so I don't use foundation and I love the more creamier products. I love the merit range, the minimalist is fantastic, very much like glossier stretch and the bronzer, the face oil, etc. My whole approach to make ion changed in lock down when I just embraced my skin oils and kept it very minimal, bronzer on face and eyes and loved it 🥰
Caroline - just wanted to say thank you for this fantastic video. Your tips on using eyebrow mascara have really changed the game for me. Thank you for your generosity in sharing your expertise. I just love watching your videos!
Hi! So you put the serum right over your SPF? I’m interested in this product but don’t know where to put it in my routine. Wasn’t sure if it was okay over SPF. Thank you!
Hi Caroline. You have so much knowledge about color and placement on the skin. Every Saturday I'm looking forward to watching your video. Learning so much! Unfortunately Merit is not (yet?) available in my country, otherwise I would definitely purchase some of their products. I enjoy cream eyeshadows, but most colors end up a bit yellow/ orange on my light skin.
Ok Caroline I’ve heard good things about this facial oil but before I purchase I’d like to know how it would sit on my 70 yr old slightly combination skin. I also noticed you put it on after SPF . Thank you for all the time you spend making these lovely videos for us to watch ❤
Hard to know what to o with the shades from Merit - I love the look of Linen but I think it’s too light for me yet when you used it on fake tan skin it looked amazing. I went for Bisque but now regret it.
I have Merit products and I think it's key to have a very well moisturised skin before applying the Minimalist stick, otherwise it was too dry on my skin. I love the bronzer and flush balm. Also the lipstick and lip oil. Have you tried the Tower 25 or Sweed mascaras? They are lovely for a natural, yet defined look and though I use dewy products, they don't transfer. Thanks for your great GRWM videos.x
Hi Caroline, I think this is a lovely look! I really like the colors . I do have a merit lipstick in slip. I really love the way it feels . It’s kinda a brownie neutral color. I think I would like Baby. I’m so fond of pink. I bought the Cava highlighter, I really like it too. I am interested in this brand . Now I want this foundation you got ! Take care and thank you!!
Fabulous look, I love a cream eyeshadow, but have dreadful trouble with them creasing or disappearing, any top tips I do clean my eyes with micellar water b4 applying. I've been using Trinny cream eyeshadow. ❤❤ Ps your brows look fantastic x

The older I get, the more I absolutely hate the feeling of makeup on my face. This video is right on time and I’ll be trying this today. Caroline comes thru again! ❤❤❤
Same. It's why the only makeup I use now are mascara, brow pencil and a little under eye concealer. Investing in good skincare has paid off so I no longer need foundation and powders. Which are aging anyway.
I feel the same way!
My vibe. Super look 🔥 More of these “feels like skincare” minimalistic make up brands please, Caroline 😍
Yes!
Very dreamy looking Caroline,love Merit products! ☕💄
Why not actual skincare we can add colour pigments to? that's the HG I'm waiting for lol
Thanks for showing eyebrow technique I’m loosing on the end so I’ll try brush with eyebrow gel. No on ever told us our eyebrows would disappear
Love love love this look!!!!!!! I'm a 60 year old with decent skin. I have found that a more minimal look is better for me.
I prefer cream eyeshadow sticks and liquid washes because they end up looking better. I enjoy playing with powder shadows with brushes but it never looks as good. I think because I don’t know when to stop lol! I have too much fun ♥️
I love the look of these products. I’m 57 and love wearing makeup but have noticed that less is more on the skin as I get older.

So look forward to these Sat morning chats!
That blusher looks a similar colour to the discontinued Max Factor Soft Copper?
Morning Caroline! Love the looks you create and appreciate your honest feedback/reviews of the products you're using! I especially appreciate your expressions, 'some welly'and 'lob it on the table' 😂 so relatable! X
Hi Caroline! Love an everyday natural look 😍 I much prefer cream everything! Have an embarrassing amount of cream shadows! 😅 thank you so much for this! Much love xxx
Hello Caroline, What a lovely and fresh make-up ! Whatever you try turns out beautiful on you ! The older I get, the more I like cream blushes. That vegan brand looks really great. The bronzer looks fresh and natural. Thank you, Caroline ! Have a nice week-end ! 🌸
Question. Do you do segments showing how various products work over sunscreen? I wear sunscreen every day so find some don’t play well with makeup.
Absolutely beautiful Caroline. The lip really finishes the look
yes using fingers to blend is my fav!! Thankyou for sharing this makeup tutorial! Going to try out Merit soon
Hi Caroline , love the look. I have just started using a cream blush and eyeshadow on my very mature 70 year old skin. Definitely prefer it 😊
Your skin looks amazing. Something off topic, and because you complain about your lips, have you considered fillers? I've been doing for 2 years now, in especific points of my face, and its helped a lot. Only you can tell the difference. Your features dont change. It's you but better. Just wanted to share this with you and your audience that may be curious about it😊
Thank you great video, the glow serum which looks lovely, is that what you use as a moisturizer?
I love using cream makeup products on my face. Like you, I love face painting with my fingers and all the patting and blending with fingers, creating all the different shades and tones needed. I find it very relaxing and finished makeup soft and beautiful!
This is a beautiful look! Which stores in London stock Merit beauty or is it just a case of hit and miss looking at the site online?
Really smashed it this week Caroline, loved that look, your skin looks so youthful. Thanks for the tip to use the angle brush on brows. Mine are thinning so I'm loving that tip 😊

Beautiful look! I love the MeritnFlush Balm Cream Blush in Stockholm which I love. Prefer cream products for my mature combination skin.
Merit seem like a great new brand - the lip oil looks gorgeous ❤ Beautiful look on you, Caroline!
Hi Caroline! The makeup look that you created is so fresh and beautiful! I've always been interested to try Merit beauty but they don't seem to deliver to EU. xoxo
Morning Caroline
At late I’ve only been using cream products as I feel they work better on my skin & look so much fresher
& I never wear powder anymore
Love this kind of look see you next week take care ❤
What an absolutely beautiful fresh look. Totally inspired!
I’ve bought some of the merit products and love them. Don’t think I’ll ever go back to a full face again. The brush is fantastic
Does anyone know if the Merit Glow Serum has a scent? Thank you!! ❤
Wonderful look! And that lip color on you, wow!
Love this Caroline. I am a little older than your mum and I’m wondering if you could try this out with her and see what her take is on it…..as in ….is this suitable for the more mature skin/person?

Ooh just ordered a few items - they look gorgeous - great look and demo!
Such a gorgeous look Caroline.Perfect start to the weekend.
Love the look and love Merit. The products are beautiful. Their lipsticks and lip oil are not drying and feel so comfy. Love the bronzer too❤️
That’s a lovely look Caroline….am straight off to the Merit website. Laughed at how LONG you put mascara on for, I probably get full face on in the time you did 46 coats….😂

I was remembering the neutrogena foundation stick. Decades ago. UK drugstore. Had loads of hyaluronic acid in it. Wonder why neutrogena stopped stocking in UK. Tangent I know but this foundation reminds me
What a beautiful look! So pretty and natural. I’ve been eyeing up Merit for some time now and heard so many great things about it. I’ve also been intrigued by a brand called Bloomeffects; a small, Dutch skincare brand based on the power of tulips and not letting them go to waste. All these great things to try come pay day!
Nice natural look, gorgeous👍🏼🤩💐
Beautiful! Yes I agree- I'd go a little pared down with the lip for this look. Loved the lip liner tho! I love the Merit cheek balm you used but it doesn't last on me at all unless I set with powder blush, and that defeats the purpose for me!
Oh those face sticks looked so satisfying to apply Caroline. I love cream products but can't use them on my very hooded eyes, they all crease badly on me, even with primer underneath.

Hi Jo. I have the same problem with mascara until I got one by Bare Minerals in my beauty advent calendar. Never considered this brand before but wow it’s a beautiful product. Gives you lovely thick lashes without looking overly made up or clumpy and doesn’t flake. Easy to remove too.

Hi Caroline I love using my fingers as you were doing,it’s what I’ve a,ways done & it’s quicker.Looks lovely,I will have to check them out as I haven’t heard of them 🙂
Thank you so much for explaining what sit beautifully and make up with, I’ve heard the phrase but I never quite understood what that meant
It’s fun to see your tutorial. Thank you!
Can I ask what is your undertone?
I love that brand, it looks beautiful and so natural and as for the lip oil so lovely. 😊
Gorgeous makeup, your skin looks incredible
Hi Caroline, I'm a bit late to the party this week but your video was worth waiting to watch in peace and quiet.
This look is beautiful and I will definitely be checking out the products you used.
I had my eyebrows microbladed last week so I'm abstaining from makeup until they're fully healed.
I hope you had a good weekend and have a good week ahead.
Take care, Heidi xx
Thank you for another beautiful look and recs. I love your blouse! Would you share the brand?
Wow thank you for this! I found out about Merit 3 years ago and now after trying Jones Road for a year and a half, I think I might like Merit (perhaps better?) I adore NUDESTIX. I love multipurpose makeup that is super natural looking.
Loving the look so fresh and makes the skin shine through....😊
Caroline where is your necklace with the tiny discs from? Lovely look as always
Wondering the same about the green one.
Always as usual beautiful makeup on you xxx
That’s was £286 on the Merit products alone 😳
That’s more than I’ve spent on makeup in total over the last few years!
Also shipping is £12 to UK on their site!!!
I guess her videos are just for a very lucky wealthy minority ....everyday more minority. It is impossible for normal people to afford that . And even If i could i cant find a reason to spend so much money in products looking the same as so many others ...but a lot cheaper .

Ok Caroline I’ve heard good things about this facial oil but before I purchase I’d like to know how it would sit on my 70 yr old slightly combination skin. I also noticed you put it on after SPF . Thank you for all the time you spend making these lovely videos for us to watch ❤
Beautiful look!
Gorgeous as always 😊!!
🥰 good morning and thank you for all this wonder advise. I have learned so much from your videos. 🥰
Hard to know what to o with the shades from Merit - I love the look of Linen but I think it’s too light for me yet when you used it on fake tan skin it looked amazing. I went for Bisque but now regret it.
Beautiful ❤. Love the look. I love merit
I love cream eyeshadows I just wish they did more Matt ones.
STUNNING! very natural is my vibe as well. I've been on Merit's website quite a lot. So thrilled you did this.
That looks so fresh and dewy ❤
I have Merit products and I think it's key to have a very well moisturised skin before applying the Minimalist stick, otherwise it was too dry on my skin. I love the bronzer and flush balm. Also the lipstick and lip oil.
Have you tried the Tower 25 or Sweed mascaras? They are lovely for a natural, yet defined look and though I use dewy products, they don't transfer. Thanks for your great GRWM videos.x
Hi Caroline, I think this is a lovely look! I really like the colors . I do have a merit lipstick in slip. I really love the way it feels . It’s kinda a brownie neutral color. I think I would like Baby. I’m so fond of pink. I bought the Cava highlighter, I really like it too. I am interested in this brand . Now I want this foundation you got ! Take care and thank you!!
I am going to be 61 this month
I have decided to give up the foundation
And just use tinted moisturiser or cc and bb cream. 😊
Q. I have droopy lids now. How do i stop any eye pencil from transferring onto socket line. Any ideas appreciated. 👍
Love the look ❤. Coats of mascara… do you let the first coat dry completely before you go in with a second? X
Hi Caroline. Enjoyed this video. Thank you 😊 Is the Merit glow serum suitable for sensitive skin ?
God you look gorgeous! Love this look!
Fabulous look, I love a cream eyeshadow, but have dreadful trouble with them creasing or disappearing, any top tips I do clean my eyes with micellar water b4 applying. I've been using Trinny cream eyeshadow. ❤❤ Ps your brows look fantastic x
