Mmmmmmeeeeee
Me! ❤
I miss you Mel 💕💕💕 Everyone, every view counts. Let’s help keep her channel up and a place where we can honor her legacy
I miss her so much.
RIP Mel! You truly were such an beautiful person inside and out! One thing that really ticks me off is that she put out such great wholesome beauty content and did so for YEARS and I just don't understand why there's only 120,000 subscribers!! She was so much better than ANY other Beauty TH-camr! Seriously! Younger generation could really look up and see what a good example is! The world lost an angel.
One reason was propably the fact that she used high end products. Many young girls especially can't afford Tom Ford etc. Her videos propably weren't suggested to people who watched drugstore makeup content. I found her by accident, she was never recommended to me, cause I never searched reviews for high end products. And then there's the fact that this youtube makeup space has been around for ages, there's so many options now and the big creators started earlier than Mel. But anyway, she was amazing, I really miss her. ❤️
Awesome video as usual this is the first one I am able to watch since your passing 😪, you are truly missed!
Miss you so much.
You’re timeless.
"Preeeetty decent brows" Um... GIRL, YOU GOT THE BEST BROWS 🙌🙌🙌🙌
Lol truth! Her brows and lashes are GOALS
Agreed!
No joke, I do everything you do on the wrong side and that's why I always thought i looked better without eye makeup... I have seen several tutorials on this but the bad side is always so ridiculously badly done that it teaches nothing... this though, is supremely helpful and I am really excited to do my eye makeup tomorrow for the first time! Thank you x10 Mel!
How did it go then, did you finally manage to get bigger eyes 😃? I found her tutorial quite impressive for thé reasons you put out!
Attention to detail ! She is the best by far instructor ,I many times watch her over & over until I get every tip and product discription .🦋💕
I’m watching this again. Thank you Mel for everything you taught us. 💕💕💕
You have taught me some tricks just now. Your videos will never be irrelevant. Thank you for all you gave us.
I love when you teach like this!
Lisa BenAderet I agree 100% ! She’s awesome! And shares important tips& tricks!!! 👍🏻⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Hi Mel. Interesting video. I like both looks. I thought the one on the right was simple and pretty, and I think that not using liner and mascara on the lower lashes leave a more wide awake look to the eyes. The one on the left was very dramatic, which you can do so beautifully, but I am 60 now, and can't wear those heavy colors and dark liner. I need a much lighter hand now than I did in my 30's. I'd love to see you bring in an older model and do their makeup! You have such a flawless face, and gorgeous eyes that you'd look good in anything, even the 'don't" makeup. I'd really love to see you work on someone older, who maybe has hooded eyes. I know I'd learn a lot!
Nancy Robinson - Risa Does Makeup has a couple of great tutorials on hooded eyes -
love it one of the few influencers that still does tutorials, tips and tricks and honestly can trust for makeup reviews 💚
I just cannot believe that you are gone to a better place… I Miss you so much Mel…
Also, I loved all of your tips and tricks for hooded eyes! I always get intimidated trying different eye looks because I don’t know how to navigated my hooded eye well. I would LOVE to see a video where you do a few common eye tutorials (ie cut crease, halo eye, smoky eye, etc) doing the looks entirely the way you would do it on hooded eyes. I think that would be so helpful! You are the best teacher and you help me understand how to make the most out of my makeup application! 💕💞💗
I agree. She could also take it one step further and bring in someone with hooded eyes and work her magic on that person!
Can you please show us a tutorial for hooded eyes, or since you don’t have them do it on someone who does! Please ma’am it would help so much!!!
Check out Wayne Goss
Wow huge difference! Thank you Mel for still helping us out!! Happy heavenly New Years Mel ❤🎉
Coming back because the tips are that Good!
What a great video!! You should do this for several different facets of the face too like contouring and bronzing and allllll that jazz.. loved it! Tell the truth how bad were you DYING to go wash off that bad eye lol
Yes please!
Holy smokes, I do a lot of those "don'ts." I always felt like shadow under my eyes make them look smaller. Live and learn, thanks Mel. You just changed my everyday shadow technique!
Thank you so much for these tips! Your eyes always look big and beautiful, so I am excited to try out some of these!
I LEGIT CAN’T EVEN BELIEVE THAT YOU ARE NOT HERE!!!!!!
Mel… puffins wife!!!!
HAYYYY BEAUTIES
I LOVE YOU SO FREAKING MUCH BABY GIRLLLLLLLL
XOXO
Really appreciated the real time blending and application. This is what TH-cam makeup used to be like. 🙏🏻
Mel! Hello! I just saw the Wayne Goss video. Congratulations beautiful lady. I told you months ago you would be a big TH-camr. I think you laughed at me lol. Your time is coming. You may or may not read this but I am truly 💯 elated for you.
I know you are wondering why commenting on this video. I save them and when I can get away from work I binge watch. I love your videos can't afford most of the makeup you review but I just enjoy. I am a RN so not getting rich lol.
Keep true to you and you will have your own line one day. Love ya.
Always happy to find “treasure” videos that I have not watched yet! When these run out I will revisit your timeless videos over and over. Missing your divine light. You continue to bring joy. Love you Mel.
Honestly with such a face, there is no doing wrong. What a gorgeous woman.
Your brows are an absolute dream
The best application of eyeshadows that I have seen in TH-cam! We need the same in bronzing, blush, face highlighter, etc! Please!
This video was so helpful! the detailed technique and explanation was amazing. Please do more like this. Maybe one on bronzer/blush/highlight application?
omg, thank you so much for this! I have very round eyes and I always feel like a weirdo for not adding heavy black cat eye style eyeliner. This tutorial confirms my instincts are correct!
I also love a nude liner on the lower lash line!
Glad to know I'm not a basketcase 😊
I just think Mel is perfection
Her eyebrows are so perfect
Her eyelashes are long and curly
She is so pretty
I really appreciate that you used realistic application techniques on both eyes. So often the "do & don't" videos feature obviously bad application techniques on the "don't" side that most people never do, which isn't useful for viewers. I definitely do some of the things on the smaller eye side. I've never really known how to fix it, but after seeing you do it side-by-side, I now know exactly what I'm doing that closes my eyes in rather than opens them up. I way overdo my brow bone highlight and inner corner highlight every single time. Thank you so much for this video.
OK, Missy. Your content in the past two weeks has been FAN-fricken-tastic. I has to resubscribe. I really love to see a mix of high-end and drugstore reviews and tutorials like these and your content has been just perfect! I have absolutely loved every video the past two weeks (especially the Colourpop eyeshadow review - and I don't even have much Colourpop). Forgive me...I'll never leave you again! :)
This should be required viewing for anyone who is going to put makeup on their face!! What a difference! I'm definitely guilty of throwing on mascara quickly and running out the door. Going to pay more attention to my lashes from now on because the difference is staggering! Gorgeous as always Mel xx
Such a great teach!! Beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
Hey Mel💖 I just realized I never commented on this video. I really appreciate that you made this video and that you did it in real time. I hooded eyes and a lot, I mean A Lot, of upper lid space. I will will be watching this again and again.
Such an informative video Mel! :)
Mel's eyes are so stunning that even the "bad" eye doesn't look bad. Thank you for the tutorial Mel!! Would love to see more of these ❤️
You are amazing! I am 47 and thoroughly appreciate your tips and tricks to help keep my makeup modern and fresh rather than just doing what I did since high school!! Lol Thank you!😘
I have watched Wayne Goss for years and he had some really nice things to say about you so here I am. He wasn't overstating how very beautiful and genuine you really are!!!! I am 52 and still love make up. I have watched at least 6 of your videos in the past few days! I will definitely be subscribing and keeping you on the playlist! Thank you
When I took esthetics course 20 years ago my instructor was from Germany and during the makeup part of the training she taught us about putting mascara on the back side of the lashes. So I've always done it. Funny I can't recall anyone else on yt talk about doing it. Love that your videos are always more of a laid back teaching style.
All I’m going to say is... my makeup have improved a 125% since I watch Mel and I’m not kidding 🙌🏻
I have a pretty balanced face so sometimes i can go for big eyes but sometimes i think small eyes are nice as well, so i liked both sides of your make up ;)
Where was this video like 10 years ago!!! My hooded eyes love you so much for this! New tips and tricks to try out!
I love the tip of extending the lid shade up tp the crease, thank you
Omg! I’m 55 and definitely have hoodwinked eyes, and your “wrong” eye is exactly how I do my makeup. I guess this contributes to my beady-eyed criminal look!!!🤭
I can’t wait to use your technique. Thank you so much!
I have to say that both eyes looked great! Even when you are trying to make it not right, it looks good ✨
This is such a great video! So wonderfully detailed, and I appreciate that you’re talking about different eye shapes.
This is what I want from TH-cam. People who know what they are doing, speaking intelligently, and giving advice.
Not novices promoting rampant consumerism
Mel. Your legacy lives on. Your advice is timeless. Long may this continue. Bless you 😇RIP ❤
This was INCREDIBLY helpful!!! I'm totally blown away by the different!! And a big thanks for including tips for hooded eyed gals!! Just recently figures out that that's my eye type so hearing a bunch of suggestions was great. I'm definitely going to start working those into my routine. One thing I'm super guilty of is bringing the darker shadow further in towards my nose at my eye inner corner. I'm going to try your way today and see how it looks!!!
Thanks sooooooo much Mel!!!! ♡♡♡
You are a great teacher and you don’t rush thru it!! You are very talented!!
This was so helpful now I gotta watch your natural lash video! I’m already obsessed with my mascara application and use two different ones including gigablack extended play and a metal lash comb I can’t waited learn something else new for my short straight lashes! Thanks so much Mel.
I’ve been watching your channel for some time now, and I love it. The tips and reviews are amazing. Your makeup and skin always look flawless. I couldn’t pull off a lot of the looks, but the artistry and just beauty to them is 😍.
I was more commenting today because sometimes you’re absolutely hysterical and I don’t even think you realize it. The “pause” and the “umm yeah” while doing the excessive brow highlight 🤣 and then the hooded eye impression made me roll.
Kudos to having such an awesome channel and for putting out soo much content!!😊😊😊
You very quickly became my new favourite TH-camr and videos like this, that showcase your talent prove why!!!
Thank you!
Such an awesome teacher. You are missed. Thank God for these videos.
You have the most amazing brows ever. I have a problem with the blending part, loved you showed it all in real time. No fast forwarding. Please make more of these tutorials, they are so helpful. Wow what a difference, I’ve been doing everything wrong. So happy I found your channel.😘
Wow what a big difference! I remember doing it all wrong in high school! And actually up til about 7 months ago when I started watching TH-cam videos and watching makeup tutorials! I can’t for the life of me do a wing though. I’ve tried and it never works out. Something to keep practicing. Thank you for doing this video, I’m sure it will help others.
I`m so glad you did this video. 💗
I do have hooded eyes and back when I was just getting into makeup I watched tutorials but I quickly realized nothing really worked for me. I do watch tutorial still, I just don`t try them on myself.
I remember watching a video from Wayne Goss something about eyeliner on hooded eyes (which I don`t do, I rather use the lid space I have showing for eyeshadow) and that made me think about my eye shape and I realized I need to look straight into the mirror and I just did what looked best for me, and that included blending eyeshadow really high up, smoking out the lower lashline and extending the outer corners. I do have too naturally big lashes, but every two weeks I apply castor oil, both on lashes and brows, just to keep them healthy and growing and to prevent sparseness.
I not a MUA, but I am an artist, graphic designer and illustrator so knowing human anatomy, how light and shade hits the face helped me actually more then I thought when it comes to makeup.
Your video is just confirmation that I`m on the right path. 😃
And I just found my eye lewk for tonight! 🤩
Mel you and your channel have quickly become my favourite place to be on you tube✨
You are so missed. I still watch your videos. The BEST ❤
Pretty decent brows? NO Mel, you have the BEST brows on the planet! Also: Your 'bad' lash/mascara side looks better than my best lash/mascara day! 🤣 Your 'small' eye is exactly how I did my makeup until I started watching TH-cam videos. 🤤 I used a beige/cream SHIMMER shadow from the crease up, and I have hooded lids. This was really helpful, so thank you for sharing your tips. 😙❤💄 I'm off to watch your natural lashes video.
Thank you for being so educational you truly know what your doing and your make up always looks stunning! I love watching your videos I learn so much! Keep up the honest, educational videos!
Best tutorial ever! I'm going to try this tips out right now.
Please do more videos like this and thank you for actually telling us hooded lid people what we need to do as well. I hate nothing more than when influencers try to do tutorials but don't mention how other eye shapes need to do things differently to get the look.
Oh perfect! Your eyes look really big every time.😍👍🏼
Thanks so much for the video! I'm bald and have no brows or lashes, so I'm really workin with a lot! I've gotten ridiculously good at drawing lifelike brows, I also have hooded eyes wa wa wa! But practicing with my every changing face bc of chemo etc. I've gotten it down for the most part, thank you for really teaching us the tricks in the easiest way possible, you are really good at that, you've vastly become my favorite TH-camr of all time. I like that were closer in age and how easy you make stuff for ppl to understand, you have a real knack for that! I could see you teaching a masterclass soon! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🎨🎨🎨💖💖💖
I can't believe this video is only showing up in my feed now. Excellent tips and I will also watch the lashes video. It's just sooo sad that she is no longer here to read her comments to know the huge impact she made with how we apply make-up even from videos that are two years old. RIP Mel! 💔💔💔
What a helpful video! I have hooded eyes AND wear glasses with a strong prescription that makes my eyes look smaller, so I'm always looking for tips on how to do my eye makeup to counteract that whole situation. This was perfect! Thank you!
Mel, Master of the Blend 😇. Glad we have this repository of her knowledge. ❤️💔❤️
This is my FAVORITE video of yours I've ever seen - and that is saying something!!!! I love your reviews, but your tutorials are AMAZING. You, Wayne Goss, and Jaclyn Hill (her older videos) create the absolute best tutorials. THANK YOU!
Thank you!!!!
Congratulations on hitting 90k
100k here we come 🎉🎊💐
Yay! Thank you!!!
Very good video Mel. Your makeup is beautiful, but the larger eye is terrific.
When you look at old movies and tv shows, it is super common to see a smokey eye that doesn't leave the mobile lid and it drives me INSANE. I just want to go into the movie and blend out that brow bone. This was great. Your eyelashes are GOALZ.
So helpful! If Im not careful I can really close up my eyes. Im so happy to see your channel growing. You def deserve it 😘😘😘😘
Extremely helpful! I struggle with very hooded aging eyes and it is always so hard for me to wear the shadows that I want to wear without making my eyes look beady. Thank you!!!!!
You are hands down one of my favorite channels to watch, love ur content
Awwww I bet you and Wayne Goss are close now! You two are genuine! Love y’all!!!!
Loved this video so much! I was sure the thumbnail was digitally edited to make one eye larger, or the other smaller. Guess it just goes to show how much makeup can do. I would love to see more videos like this if you could. Thanks Mel!
Great tips! Going to try in the morning. Thank you.
Oh my goodness, this video I had to watch twice 🤣 when you said "there we go" when you were doing the eye on what, not to do - that's me! I really needed this today - won't go into it, but was a little tearful and low, which is so unlike me - Mel your video , without realising it, pulled me right out of it, and I'm smiling! 😘
Really great informative video, Mel. Hooded eye girl here. Keep doing you girl you’re my favorite!💥
Wow! I'm blown away by the difference. Incredible, Mel! 💖
Thanks for the tips for hooded eyes. I have hooded eyes this helps a lot! I've been watching your videos for a while and love your work! Please give these tips as you try new eyeshadow tuturials!
You crash the system with this video! Great 👍 informative. Thank you Mel 😊
For years I got told my eyes were too big for my face, but now I'm emphasising it and loving it- took trial and error with techniques but vids like this would have helped me along in my early 20s lol great work :)
You are such an incredible teacher! You share techniques and then share the why behind it! Thank you so much.
Such a great video. Thank you for taking the time to explain each step( also including helpful tips for us with hooded eyes)! New subscriber 👏
Holy guacamole! I thought your thumbnail was click bait for a second.... And then I watched the magic unfold. Mind blown.
WOW! What a difference between the two eye looks. Thank you for this!
I can't BELIEVE the difference! Awesome!
Love this type of video! I would like to see a full brow video and complexion from primer to powder application
What I meant to say, is I appreciate the hooded eye suggestions you made in this video. I really think it's good advice.
I'm so glad you did this video! I'm about to go watch your lash video now! I've been dying to know how you make your lashes look so BEAUTIFUL!
First, you're amazing and gorg! I've been watching alot of your videos. Second, thank you for the hooded eye tips, please give us more! Third, you're gonna make me buy that Tom Ford palette. Fourth, you got a new subscriber!
Thank you Mel! I have hooded eyes and have been doing every “don’t” ! I learned so much from this video and can’t wait to practice what you showed!
I needed this 🙌🏻 I have the beady eyes 👀 and am bad for forgetting that reality when I am using such pretty colors. More teaching please thank you☺️
Great tips! I have hooded eyes so thanks for giving us instructions on how to apply hooded eye makeup!!
Wow this video was so detailed and informative you are honestly a hidden gem,you have so much knowledge and I appreciate you share all your tips and tricks with us...I used to do my eye makeup like the wrong side and is so true my eye looked way more hooded than what they really are
With you I've learned so much
Thanks again for being so dedicated ❤
I love educational tutorials!! Your so easy to follow and understand!! Can you do a color theory when choosing eyeshadows and a how to blend eyeshadow tutorial? Please and thank you!!
Really great illustration for anyone learning how to do their eyes! Love that Cocoa Mirage... I reallly want to get it. It looks really pretty with your brown eyes.
