Katie Howse EXACTLY!!!! And I thought I was luxe because I would only use the Clinique Super Double Face compact and its sponge on other compacts. I never used liquid in HS. I was too oily and athletic. I’m almost 40. It’s a struggle airday!! Like what the H?? 40!! Aaaaaaaaah!!!
I finally received the Marc Jacobs See-Quins Glam Glitter shadows in shades Gleam Girl, Topaz Flash, Flashlight, Copperazzi, Glam Noir, and Glitz Blitz...and they are my favorite things ever! Blows my Tarte Chrome Paint Pots out of the water, but I'm all about the glitz. Thanks for, yet again, another excellent recommendation, Samantha. 🖤
your comment about your teens and being acne free made me sad to hear... you could actually here the frustration bubbling just underneath the sarcasm!!! - just remember - acne or not - that you are beautiful, intelligent, witty and much more than your spots... your also f@#&*%g hilarious!!!
@@rmc169 acne sucks! When do you break out. Is it a specific time on your menstrual cycle or continuously. Where do you break out. Jawline is hormonal, cheekbones is a reaction to food, forehead is usually during puberty due to extreme sebum production. If you think that something you eat might be the problem eliminate food types one at a time to see if it makes a difference. Dairy can cause acne, but so can gluten, sugar and soy. Lastly when wearing make-up clean your brushes and sponges, otherwise everything gets contaminated.
Funny enough, when I was in high school one of my best friends was Jaclyn Hill (yes that Jaclyn Hill), and the makeup I wore was what she told me to wear lol What stands out the most to me is I remember using the MAC foundation (Studio Fix I think) even though it broke me out horribly, and I applied it with a paddle foundation brush so it looked SO CAKEY!! Other than that I didn’t wear much unless she did my makeup. I wore the Victoria Secret lip glosses, black eyeliner, and mascara, all from MAC of course. I didn’t start doing my brows until college!
I just wanted to thank you for existing Sam. I've been watching you for years now and as you got older and your makeup style changed, mine did too. Two years ago I would have never went to uni or hang out with friends in the city without makeup on, now I don't care anymore. I just do mascara and eyebrows most of the time, so thank you for helping me realize that I don't need it. I'm more confident because of you.
Corey Escobar I truly feel like it’s the lash, and the winged out liner on inner and outer eye. We always hear that black eyeliner in the waterline closes the eye, but I think the liner with the lash combo is what’s doing it. So interesting to see the comparison.
in middle school, a colored eyeshadow all over the lid (and extending to the end of my eyebrow) to match the color of my polo. foundation mixed with moisturizer. tight lined and water lined black eyeliner and mascara. done.
I totally knew this is what you were doing when you posted an Instagram story teasing it! I still watch your old tutorials and new when doing my make up
Your super simple "now" eye just helped me so much. I watch an embarrassing number of youtube videos on eye shadow placement, and your approach really clicked for me. Thank you, girl!
This is so relatable omg I used to do this EXACT LOOK with a GOSH shadow quad with bright yellow, green, blue and I think turquoise and would just wear those all the time. I was never into lashes or liner I think because I have hooded eyes so wanted as much of the bright colours to shine forth! The blush was the real flashback moment though omg this was me 100% To be honest I still go ham on blush but my makeup is definitely more like your current one too, or just a bold lip, no eyeshadow. I do bright colours whenever I can but who has the time lol like you said Great video as always x
Oh Sam, I just can’t thank you enough for helping me learn to accept my adult acne. I never had it until a couple years ago and I’m in my 30s! Until I found you, I was that person carrying my entire face of makeup with me out of insecurity. But now I’m ok with a more sheer foundation where some spots show through and I only take a lip product with me!
I have been watching you for a while and this is bringing me back girl. I remember the video where you said something like “who am I, I’m doing natural/light face makeup” and I was like wtf Sam hello ? But then it looked amazing and I was like she may be onto something here. As I am blessed with adult acne and aging as well you changed my makeup game forever and helped me come to the conclusion that it’s okay if my spots/texture shows through and my skin looked more natural. Love you girl, you really are impactful ✌️
I only heard the auto focus sound once in the beginning but it was not annoying at all. I feel you about carrying a whole face of makeup in your makeup bag. I carried one bag with all of the makeup that I used that morning, and a separate bag with all of my brushes and tools in case I had to fix my makeup. I did that for over a decade. I just this past weekend decided to stop carrying it with me, and just minimized to a powder compact and some lip products. I was literally carrying my insecurities with me in those bags every single day, and I felt like enough was enough. I relate to you on so many levels, and I’m so grateful that I randomly clicked on one of your videos a few months ago. You’re definitely one of my favorite influencers, and I think that contrary to most other “influencers” out there, the word truly fits you. 💜
I totally remember watching your videos bc i loved your technique and recommandations but i hated that you were using too many colors and too full coverage. I am so happy of the way your channel turned out, you re just one of my fav now ♥️
I had the most perfect beautiful skin until I hit my twenties and then I got adult acne! I literally get cysts on my face that are super painful and are so red and angry looking! But I'm really trying to embrace my skin and refuse to where heavy foundation to cake my face! Using mac face and body and just trying to not let my acne define me or my happiness! Samantha your gorgeous and your literally my inspiration 💕💕
Audio is perfect on this video. I'm quite a bit older but I wore covergirl everything and my eyelook was silver shadow all over the lid.. and overplucked 90's brows 🤣
My mind-blowing moment, courtesy of you, was learning that there are different ways to make different shadows/products work. Brush or finger, wet or dry, base or none, etc. It helped me not give up so easily!
I’m pretty positive I spoke this into existence. Spent so long scrolling into the ooooldest IG posts comparing Sam’s makeup then/now and BAM! Here we are 🤯😍
The gel eyeliner tip is something I've never heard of before so I will be running out to buy some today since eyeliner never stays in my waterline. I hope it's not too much to ask but would it be possible for you to do a video on how to make our makeup last as long as possible? :)
A good one is the loreal infallible pro gel liner, it will last you a lifetime, I still have mine from a few years ago when I went really ham on my eyeliner.
I recommend marc Jacob's retractable gel liner. I know the price seems high but when I tell you it's *kisses fingers to the sky* perfect quality, it's perfect quality. Unlike any liner I've had before and truly does stay put
My makeup style has changed so much and still does at times. I love a full glam but I also appreciate "natural" Nude glam. I truly love both. Sometimes I want to be full glam and sometimes I want minimal or a soft bronzey look. I always love your videos. Very informative and I always learn from your videos and you are absolutely gorgeous 💗
I haven't watched a beauty/makeup video in so long but remembered how much I used to love your channel and just came across this and I am in LOVE. This was such a fun video and made me think about how ott i used to go for getting ready for school with 2 pairs of fake eyelashes compared to now where i barely remember to use mascara. Also your before look is so blended i could never even now
Back in high school, I used to wear blue. Blue eyeshadow, blue eyeliner, blue mascara; dark blue, light blue, purple blue, blue, blue, blue. Still can’t resist a hint of blue but it’s not LIFE for me anymore. Great video! So good to reminisce and in your case ‘see’ how much we’ve evolved makeup wise. Big XO
I've been following you since Day 1 on Reddit. It's been an absolute joy watching you perfect your artistry. Still watching, can't wait to see where you'll be in another 10 years. xoxo
Hi sam! Ive been watching your videos since like 2014, and i swear you're still my favorite on TH-cam! I love how we have similar skin problems, and you dont cake on foundation! You've inspired me to use a bb cream now, with all cream products haha! I love you and thank you for continuing to stay real. You should do like a diy treat yourself type of video! (With your favorite skin products!)
I hope this helps: the little clicking sounds -I assume it is the autofocus sound- are a little bit distracting. I could't focus on you entirely bc of that. So I think the palcement on the table is better.
The audio is fine. This video is so much fun to watch! I love it! I don’t think your “high school” look is bad. Compared to my makeup and other people I’ve seen, you look great. Ok maybe not the blush but that was in at the time 🤣
This is why Sam is the best. Its hilarious and fun but also she teaches why techniques are used and the difference between the sides with the transition colors and stuff ❤ A+++ influencer
Morgan Norton my brows are super duper blonde and you really can’t see them unless I run something through them. So it looked like I had no brows until my junior year of high school when I was in a play and they filled my brows in
I used to wear revlon colorstay, (or any thick, matte foundation I could find) shape tape (rip undereyes) and I set with coty airspun. I’m really on point with my skincare and prefer dewy, lighter coverage. I really prep my skin well which makes SO MUCH of a difference. And for the last 2 weeks I’ve not worn any foundation to work just good skincare and spot concealing. Such a huge change and I’m loving it!
Before I was ever into makeup, I loved blush. I went through an entire MAC Dollymix in less than a year. I have no pictures from that time, but I CANNOT imagine what I looked like 😂 I still overdo my cheek products though, but now it's bronzer. I gotta chill.
The fact that you can remember how you did your makeup is astounding. I mean I know we had MySpace....I can remember bits and pieces. All I know is that at the time, all my makeup could fit in the bag I now use for my makeup brushes 😂🤦♀️🙈
Jocelyn Sloan girl same. I have vague memories of cheetah print eye shadow and cover girl powder for foundation but for the most part I truly DO. OT remember. 😂
I had a few phases: emo; winged liner + red lips; and this glorious eye creation of brown on the lid, fading outwards to yellow and then to pink. All done with a Lorac palette my mom got me that had a red snakeskin cover. Foundation was Dream Matte Mousse applied in shellac-like thickness with a drugstore triangle sponge that I never cleaned and used until it was literally disintegrating in my hand.
I so prefer your natural sensible nails and wasn't it easy to do your lid colour!! You look beautiful regardless of the makeup Sam Xxxxx you are stunning xxxxX
In high school we all used our fingers to apply foundation, and the foam tip applicator that came with the eye shadow...yep 1 shadow..sometimes 2..no concealer, contour ,bronzer,or highlighter....just blush with little brush that came with the product..no real brushes..and Coty airspun powder..black eyeliner and mascara..no eyebrow product...oh and of course the frosted pink lipstick..simply Gorgeous..not...my favorite base was Max Factor Pancake stick...cake it baby
Maybe you've gone far with the blush, but your h sch eye looks stunning. Perhaps I'm a bit old fashion, but a blended shadow with the liner for me is like stake comparing to burger. Anyway, bravo! Cheers! :)
I love to see everyone’s makeup journey (if you will) or “glow up”. All of us seem to go through different phases with our makeup. A few years ago I was ALL about bright colors and rainbowish looks but now I’m 30 and my skin has changed A LOT (gotten quite dry) and I go for more “natural ish” looks. Lol I still look like a SLAYED drag queen tho and I LOVE it bc that’s my inner soul. Love you Sam. You’re videos are always so informative and thorough. When I’m confused about blending, paring colors, or anything else, I ALWAYS go to your channel and find my answers. Xoxoxoxoxo keep up the great work girl! ❤️❤️❤️❤️👑👑👑👑👑👑👑
Since you pointed it out, that autofocus ticking is quite noticeable and I couldn’t stop hearing it... maybe not the best spot for the mic. 🤷♀️ But love the vid and your chats as usual 😘
Izabela Bilska I didn’t notice it until I read this and now it’s driving me crazy lmao. I forgot she had said it, and then I heard it and now I’m going insane.
I KNEW IT! When I saw your IG story, I knew it would be this video. I love this! I used to wear shimmery eyeshadows, on the lids. No mattes, no transition shades. And I used sponge applicators or my fingers for that shimmer.. Even further back, in my first years of high school I even used a shimmery silvery grey pencil all over my lid *sobbing*. Later on, I religiously used flaky waterproof liquid liner for wings that were wayyy to big. I used only a stick concealer, which was definitely too old and dried out after a while. Only for spot 'concealing'. No foundation, no under eye concealer. In my early teens I loved way to glittery and obnoxiously bright and sticky glosses. I recently fell in love again with sheer and glossy lips, after swearing off glosses for a few long years of only wearing opaque mattes after these disastrous gloss times lol. However, my new glosses lately are more flattering and less glittery glosses.
What brush did you use for your bronzer? Or is there any other must have face brushes that you could reccomend! I also bought the Fenty bronzer and love it! 💜💜
I did the same thing with my makeup bag until I was 22! I couldn’t go out without it. Now it is an actual miracle if I put mascara on in the morning. We grew up!
I personally love the way you do your makeup now. I’ve always been drawn to the more natural look. The eye on the high school side is very eye catching tho!
So fun going back down memory lane! I have to think real hard what I did in high school, I used a lot of blue eyeshadows, mostly 3 colors with black pencil liner on the lower lash line. No brows, just a little brush action and no foundation at all. I have just started wearing foundation on the daily, since like a year or something
"I still don't mind the concealer lips..." *me, wearing Maybelline Vivid Hot Laquer in "Tease" or Bite's "Flat White" gloss almost every day* Absurd. 😐
I'm still stuck in high school in that area of my makeup, hahah. If I'm not doing a bold lip, it is basically my skin tone with maybe a gloss on top! I don't like most nude lip shades -- too pinky or peachy for my preference, so... If it ain't broke, don't fix it. 😅
I know it’s “boring” but I love watching you do a neutral eye. You have the look I’m trying for and I haven’t quite figured it out. Also, I would LOVE to see you use the Kaja eyeshadows you’ve talked about.
The eye look if it would've been blended right and a transition color used, would've looked pretty! Loved the look on the way you do your makeup now! That lip color was gorgeous!
Mic sounded great. This video is bringing back memories of my high school days. Oh, the looks you can get away with when you are young. I would’ve loved your makeup in high school lol!
I wasn't allowed to wear makeup up until my sophomore year I believe I had some birthday money and bought a mascara I felt so grown up putting it on LOL I remember my mom laughing at my reaction too 😆 then later was eyeliner but only wore it in my bottom lid for special occasions 🙈 in senior year I started to wear eyeshadow that I'm pretty sure I got from a dollar store which had 6 or 4 eyeshadows but only used one a coppery color since the others didn't show up 😄 always applied it with my fingers or that little sponge applicator it came with 😢🙈 good times I guess LOL ❤️
I just set my eyeprimer from the browbone to just above my mobile lid, which lets me blend that transition shade seamlessly up BUT also have that "tacky" surface for shimmers to adhere to on my lid. Works like a charm.
You should do a series where you recreate looks from the very beginning of your channel but update it to how you would do it now!!
“In high school I only had five brushes.”
Me. At 27 years old
Fart Breaker and 31 😂
Fart Breaker we never used them when i was in comprehensive school & i left school 30 years ago.
Fart Breaker me in 2019
Me @ 36 years old 😂
Katie Howse EXACTLY!!!! And I thought I was luxe because I would only use the Clinique Super Double Face compact and its sponge on other compacts. I never used liquid in HS. I was too oily and athletic. I’m almost 40. It’s a struggle airday!! Like what the H?? 40!! Aaaaaaaaah!!!
even the blurring filter on the thumbnail couldn't conceal that atrocity of a blush application
also first
Samantha Ravndahl 🤣😂💗
I finally received the Marc Jacobs See-Quins Glam Glitter shadows in shades Gleam Girl, Topaz Flash, Flashlight, Copperazzi, Glam Noir, and Glitz Blitz...and they are my favorite things ever! Blows my Tarte Chrome Paint Pots out of the water, but I'm all about the glitz. Thanks for, yet again, another excellent recommendation, Samantha. 🖤
😂💖
What false lashes are you wearing on the “now” side? They are so beautiful!
Unnervingly relatable. Always had to have my makeup available for touch ups in case a spec of my (youthful) skin was exposed 🤦🏼♀️
I still do that lol😂
Lmaooooo 🤣 🤣👌
your comment about your teens and being acne free made me sad to hear... you could actually here the frustration bubbling just underneath the sarcasm!!!
- just remember - acne or not - that you are beautiful, intelligent, witty and much more than your spots... your also f@#&*%g hilarious!!!
It's so frustrating. I also never had acne in my teens but in my 30's I break out so much.
@@rmc169 acne sucks! When do you break out. Is it a specific time on your menstrual cycle or continuously. Where do you break out. Jawline is hormonal, cheekbones is a reaction to food, forehead is usually during puberty due to extreme sebum production.
If you think that something you eat might be the problem eliminate food types one at a time to see if it makes a difference. Dairy can cause acne, but so can gluten, sugar and soy.
Lastly when wearing make-up clean your brushes and sponges, otherwise everything gets contaminated.
Funny enough, when I was in high school one of my best friends was Jaclyn Hill (yes that Jaclyn Hill), and the makeup I wore was what she told me to wear lol What stands out the most to me is I remember using the MAC foundation (Studio Fix I think) even though it broke me out horribly, and I applied it with a paddle foundation brush so it looked SO CAKEY!!

Julia Karanović I was literally reading this like when did I write this!? Haha you took the words right out of my soul
@@honey8177 I'm glad someone else feels the same :D
"yellow green and navy" I gasped and got RLY excited sam
All I can think of is Phyllis on picture day 😭😭 “what’s on your face? Is that a disguise” 😂😂😂
Abby Sparks YES! 😅
but honestly the left side is still a banger
I'm absolutely obsessed with your voice! It's so relaxing lol
I’m so amazed at how much bigger your “back-in-the-day” eye is! It’s so wide and awake. Obviously both sides are beautiful! Love this vid! ❤️
I like her high school side eye makeup and her wing is 👌🏼
I know, is it the wing making it look so much larger?
Corey Escobar I truly feel like it’s the lash, and the winged out liner on inner and outer eye. We always hear that black eyeliner in the waterline closes the eye, but I think the liner with the lash combo is what’s doing it. So interesting to see the comparison.
It seems to be naturally larger, look at her before she puts on makeup
No issues with the microphone! I used to wear bright red eye shadow and thick black eye liner essentially in a circle around my eye. Everyday.
Alison Conrad oh wow😳😂
The change from the black MAC compact to the Fenty compact was refreshing
My anxiety cannot handle the glob on the tip of your mascara wand lol
same
I came into the comments to post this
I just came to comment this too!
her acne breakouts are really bad i could see her skin it is creasing and becoming wrinkly on the acne areas
@@Forever-gd7vs what's that have to do with the blob on the tip of the mascara wand?
in middle school, a colored eyeshadow all over the lid (and extending to the end of my eyebrow) to match the color of my polo. foundation mixed with moisturizer. tight lined and water lined black eyeliner and mascara. done.
OMG fafinettex3 YESSSSSSSS! So many memories just came literally rushing back to me. Thanks for that
I am LOVING how your dewy-side is still lightly showing little blemishes but still giving it that touch of coverage! x
I totally knew this is what you were doing when you posted an Instagram story teasing it! I still watch your old tutorials and new when doing my make up
I've always thought your eyes are so pretty. Big and blue. Like a cat
Your super simple "now" eye just helped me so much. I watch an embarrassing number of youtube videos on eye shadow placement, and your approach really clicked for me. Thank you, girl!

Retinol. Seriously!!
I actually still love to have colour on my lids. Would you ever wear an updated version of the green/yellow/blue eye? We'd love to see it. Thanks!
" I dont know how to tell you this... I used to power my whole face " 😂😂🤣🤣
This video is everything. I really wish you had a picture of this makeup from back in the day
Yeah sorry the auto focus noise is distracting. Have to say if you hadn’t pointed it out I wouldn’t have noticed tho. 🤷🏼♀️🤣
Don't care about any noise, what the video is about, just happy to see a video from you. On any subject, any content.
Not for nothing- I love the navy/lime turned emerald eye!
FAFFINETTE!!! I went and watched some videos she put out a couple years ago and the nostalgia was so real for her and viewers
Audio is perfect on this video. I'm quite a bit older but I wore covergirl everything and my eyelook was silver shadow all over the lid.. and overplucked 90's brows 🤣
My mind-blowing moment, courtesy of you, was learning that there are different ways to make different shadows/products work. Brush or finger, wet or dry, base or none, etc. It helped me not give up so easily!
I was listening so intently to you that I didn’t hear the autofocus 🤷🏾♀️
Yep. Did the same thing 🤣
I’m pretty positive I spoke this into existence. Spent so long scrolling into the ooooldest IG posts comparing Sam’s makeup then/now and BAM! Here we are 🤯😍
The gel eyeliner tip is something I've never heard of before so I will be running out to buy some today since eyeliner never stays in my waterline. I hope it's not too much to ask but would it be possible for you to do a video on how to make our makeup last as long as possible? :)
A good one is the loreal infallible pro gel liner, it will last you a lifetime, I still have mine from a few years ago when I went really ham on my eyeliner.

You're 'back in the day eyeshadow was pretty, & that wing!!
But that blush😁😁😁 you were beautiful then as well as now!!
Regardless that you don’t like the way you did your makeup back in the day, but you rock those bright eye colors!!!🐠🐠🐠
I was hoping you’d do this video! So cool to see how style evolves with your skill!
I love the colorful eyeshadow look. I love color and I love to play so it is right up my alley.
You forgot the foundation 30 shades darker. But I loved your old tutorials lol
Raelene Puru-Peri i thought I was the only one that remembered!

I'm familiar with the "turn brush, keep going" technique.
you're the most relaxing youtuber, i love your videos
You’re so beautiful inside and out sam 💕

Jocelyn Sloan girl same. I have vague memories of cheetah print eye shadow and cover girl powder for foundation but for the most part I truly DO. OT remember. 😂
I had a few phases: emo; winged liner + red lips; and this glorious eye creation of brown on the lid, fading outwards to yellow and then to pink. All done with a Lorac palette my mom got me that had a red snakeskin cover. Foundation was Dream Matte Mousse applied in shellac-like thickness with a drugstore triangle sponge that I never cleaned and used until it was literally disintegrating in my hand.
I so prefer your natural sensible nails and wasn't it easy to do your lid colour!! You look beautiful regardless of the makeup Sam Xxxxx you are stunning xxxxX
Yes, Sam! Teach me all the things about blending! I would totally watch all instructional videos from you.
In high school we all used our fingers to apply foundation, and the foam tip applicator that came with the eye shadow...yep 1 shadow..sometimes 2..no concealer, contour ,bronzer,or highlighter....just blush with little brush that came with the product..no real brushes..and Coty airspun powder..black eyeliner and mascara..no eyebrow product...oh and of course the frosted pink lipstick..simply Gorgeous..not...my favorite base was Max Factor Pancake stick...cake it baby
Julie Brown omg yes. Panstick!!!!
That eye makeup from back in the day is fabulous!
Maybe you've gone far with the blush, but your h sch eye looks stunning. Perhaps I'm a bit old fashion, but a blended shadow with the liner for me is like stake comparing to burger. Anyway, bravo! Cheers! :)
I love to see everyone’s makeup journey (if you will) or “glow up”. All of us seem to go through different phases with our makeup. A few years ago I was ALL about bright colors and rainbowish looks but now I’m 30 and my skin has changed A LOT (gotten quite dry) and I go for more “natural ish” looks. Lol I still look like a SLAYED drag queen tho and I LOVE it bc that’s my inner soul. Love you Sam. You’re videos are always so informative and thorough. When I’m confused about blending, paring colors, or anything else, I ALWAYS go to your channel and find my answers. Xoxoxoxoxo keep up the great work girl! ❤️❤️❤️❤️👑👑👑👑👑👑👑
Since you pointed it out, that autofocus ticking is quite noticeable and I couldn’t stop hearing it... maybe not the best spot for the mic. 🤷♀️ But love the vid and your chats as usual 😘
Izabela Bilska I didn’t notice it until I read this and now it’s driving me crazy lmao. I forgot she had said it, and then I heard it and now I’m going insane.
Yes!!! Until someone mentioned it in the comments i couldn’t stop hearing it LOL
I KNEW IT! When I saw your IG story, I knew it would be this video. I love this! I used to wear shimmery eyeshadows, on the lids. No mattes, no transition shades. And I used sponge applicators or my fingers for that shimmer.. Even further back, in my first years of high school I even used a shimmery silvery grey pencil all over my lid *sobbing*. Later on, I religiously used flaky waterproof liquid liner for wings that were wayyy to big. I used only a stick concealer, which was definitely too old and dried out after a while. Only for spot 'concealing'. No foundation, no under eye concealer. In my early teens I loved way to glittery and obnoxiously bright and sticky glosses. I recently fell in love again with sheer and glossy lips, after swearing off glosses for a few long years of only wearing opaque mattes after these disastrous gloss times lol. However, my new glosses lately are more flattering and less glittery glosses.
I can barely hear the camera at all.
& As soon as you said Britney Spears I knew exactly 😂 Oops Sam Did It Again.
Kudos to you and all the brave souls that went to school with colorful makeup
What brush did you use for your bronzer? Or is there any other must have face brushes that you could reccomend! I also bought the Fenty bronzer and love it! 💜💜
Karleigh Lee-Hubble I’m always looking for the best bronzer brush but I feel like so many people forget to talk about brushes.
@@hayleylarsen7938 agreed! Everyone always skips over the brushes! I'm thinking its a Smith cosmetics brush?
I did the same thing with my makeup bag until I was 22! I couldn’t go out without it. Now it is an actual miracle if I put mascara on in the morning. We grew up!
Oh yay! I love these videos and I was hoping you would do one! I feel like it would be quite different ✌🏽
I personally love the way you do your makeup now. I’ve always been drawn to the more natural look. The eye on the high school side is very eye catching tho!
When I was in highschool I did a full face of make up every day but never eyeshadow. I honestly just found eyeshdows a couple of years ago 😅.
So fun going back down memory lane! I have to think real hard what I did in high school, I used a lot of blue eyeshadows, mostly 3 colors with black pencil liner on the lower lash line. No brows, just a little brush action and no foundation at all. I have just started wearing foundation on the daily, since like a year or something
Is it weird that I love your "back in the days" eye ? x)
*Looking gorgeous as always* 😍😘
😘😘😘
"I still don't mind the concealer lips..."
*me, wearing Maybelline Vivid Hot Laquer in "Tease" or Bite's "Flat White" gloss almost every day* Absurd. 😐
Concealer lips looks really good with a deep smokey eye
@@emmm507 right. whenever i do a mokey eye, i can't resist...
I'm still stuck in high school in that area of my makeup, hahah. If I'm not doing a bold lip, it is basically my skin tone with maybe a gloss on top! I don't like most nude lip shades -- too pinky or peachy for my preference, so... If it ain't broke, don't fix it. 😅
I know it’s “boring” but I love watching you do a neutral eye. You have the look I’m trying for and I haven’t quite figured it out. Also, I would LOVE to see you use the Kaja eyeshadows you’ve talked about.
Damnit Sam EVERY VIDEO you make me want to spend my money. That brown shimmery eye look...I need it or I will....cease to exist?
Taylor Sanders I read that in Sam’s voice lmao
The eye look if it would've been blended right and a transition color used, would've looked pretty! Loved the look on the way you do your makeup now! That lip color was gorgeous!
I’m 26, and I literally can’t remember how I did makeup like 2 years ago, much less when I was in high school 😂🤷🏻♀️
Courtney Smith i thought i was the only one!!
Mic sounded great. This video is bringing back memories of my high school days. Oh, the looks you can get away with when you are young. I would’ve loved your makeup in high school lol!
I wasn't allowed to wear makeup up until my sophomore year I believe I had some birthday money and bought a mascara I felt so grown up putting it on LOL I remember my mom laughing at my reaction too 😆 then later was eyeliner but only wore it in my bottom lid for special occasions 🙈 in senior year I started to wear eyeshadow that I'm pretty sure I got from a dollar store which had 6 or 4 eyeshadows but only used one a coppery color since the others didn't show up 😄 always applied it with my fingers or that little sponge applicator it came with 😢🙈 good times I guess LOL ❤️
I just set my eyeprimer from the browbone to just above my mobile lid, which lets me blend that transition shade seamlessly up BUT also have that "tacky" surface for shimmers to adhere to on my lid. Works like a charm.
I was in the marching band/Colorguard and we had so many brightly colored makeup looks that I was convinced “fancy” makeup was bright purple 😂
Keri McCall SAME
When I did guard, I had to have bright colors on the day to day to feel dressed up
Love the color combo of your colorful side. I wear colors like that alot.
