❤WOW, AMAZING PERSON WHO YOU ARE, LOOKING SO BEAUTIFUL AND PRETTY, GOD BLESS YOUR FAMILY AND EVERYONE'S, THANK YOU VERY MUCH,MAA SHAA ALLAH, ALHAMDULILLAH, SUB HA NALLAH, ALLAHU AKBAR ❤
Chipped nail polish🙈 that is one of biggest pet peves... especially on the fingers, the toes could still be hidden, but your hands are on display constantly...
Excellent list! I have two tips: my nail polish often chips, so to avoid it looking bad, I just use clear or very natural coloured polish; Two: rather than eyelash extensions, I use an eyelash conditioner/serum. I'm 58, blonde with fine short lashes. For the last 3 months I've used an eyelash serum every night, and my lashes look longer, darker and fuller. I've had strangers compliment me on my long natural lashes. So I would try the conditioning option before going for extensions.
Met Dolly once, while waiting for the elevator, outside of our doc’s office, on the outskirts of Beverly Hills (not a plastic surgery doc, either, lol).. She told me I had the most beautiful alabaster skin, and quite a mysterious look (I had on a extra large black brimmed floppy hat, large black sunglasses, and an off the shoulder, long sleeve, black dress).. I told her it was all to protect said alabaster skin. It was a lovely, unexpected surprise. She was just as kind as she comes off as, in the media. And I must be doin’ something right.. 😅
Cher once said if she wanted to put her boobs on her back she would. Do what you want if it makes you feel better about yourself. Personally, I’ve had 😊no work done and don’t intend to but to each their own.
They’re only cute for pictures but really uncomfortable and unpractical for everyday wear. Even bold gel nail colours can limit one’s wardrobe choices.
The cheapest thing someone can do is to wear clothes that are not ironed and shoes that are dirty. It's something that people often overlook, but when your clothes are well-ironed, and you regularly clean your shoes, you always look fresh
I'm disabled and cannot stand to iron clothes. I however take them straight out of rhe washing machine and hang them, so they don't look like crumpled dish rags...
The golden rule when it comes to teeth is: NEVER GO WHITER THAN THE WHITE PART OF YOUR EYES. The white of your eyes should be the lightest shade possible for your teeth. Anything lighter looks uncanny.
Yes and this lady's teeth do not look natural at all, there are veneers that mimic the natural shape/lines of the teeth and there are poorly made veneers that look bumpy and big and plastic, unfortunately Anna has not been lucky in choosing her dentist.
Cool, except if you have a bloodshot eyes 😂 Here is the tip: make sure your earrings emphasize your eye color. My friend who works in diamond industry got that job because she could see colors better than many other applicants. And her advice on what color jewels I should wear “changed my life” 😂 It’s incredible how people notice your eyes if matched with right earring color.
In my opinion, lack of hair grooming, messy bun, tangled up hair and overly outgrown out roots just make you stand out for the wrong reasons in public and of course, undoubtedly cheapen your look.
Agree. If one dyes/bleaches their hair it should be maintained carefully to look good, if that's not possible then imo natural color is the best option. I also think many problems that can make your hair look frumpy could be solved by adding a leave-in conditioner suitable to your hair type to your routine.
Damage, aka breakage and split ends...it's better to have unbleached, naturally textured shorter hair, than trying to force a straight long bleach blonde that's broken.
Anything permanent on your face is a no-no... What you like in your 20s is not what you're going to like in your 40s. Especially the color black might look good in your twenties but look horrible in your 40s. Now if it gradually wears away well that's a different story. If it's permanent say no.
I don't know, even Anna had a nose job. I have seen some really nice nose jobs, and that lasts a lifetime. But you still have to be careful, nose jobs have a high revision rate.
@@labornurse my fiance had his nose done due to having it broken badly and it's not been redone since then and it looks great still. I will say though, he gets sick easier having had it done and he also can't pick blackheads because his nose is sensitive to being pushed down and such
Try Nano-brows, Im 41 and was a typical 90s teen with overplucked brows. I got nanobrows this year and it is incredibly natural-looking and not painful at all like microbrows are.
Eyelash extensions have gotten out of control in my opinion! I love the natural ones but as my grandma put it “why do you need to look like Las Vegas at the gym?” 😂 I lasted a few months and stopped getting them after her honest opinion
Thanks to Anna I no longer wear a hair elastic on my wrist, and I keep my nails trimmed with a very light polish. Instantly makes me look more polished.
That's one of her tips that I instantly took note of haha. I used to ALWAYS have a hair tie just sitting on my wrist. Anna pointing that out made me remove it and try to keep it in my pocket instead. I rarely reach for it because I never used it that much. Just goes to show how much it was just being used as an ugly bracelet.
I’m so sorry to hear you were bullied 😢 even now as an adult …..words hurt … not okay ❤ I find your work very honest and videos so very well prepared There is nothing more beautiful than a self assured woman who knows exactly who she is … just my opinion❤
Jennifer Scott from The Daily Connoisseur had great advice not to start certain beauty treatments that are not going to be well maintained. I agree that short buffed nails look better than thick gel nails with regrowth at the bottom. The same goes for highlights that are long grown out and brassy.
Very true, also in that category, when people get lash extensions but don’t keep up with them so there are some short and some long lashes, looks so bad😬
I think what’s important for altering your appearance is harmony! The overall balance and flow of your appearance is important in my opinion when choosing to do something that could alter your appearance. Makes everything look elevated as a whole.
I agree-that’s why I’m glad seasonal colors have become trendy again, because it’s a much more accessible approach to color theory for laypeople, and it really helps with dressing harmoniously in a flattering way!
I would add, dressing younger than your age. I used to think that I would always want the freedom to dress like someone in their 20's but now I realize that there is beauty in choosing to dress more elegant and adapting your style the older you get.
I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately.. I’m 24 I like dressing modestly and I’ve been trying to incorporate more elegant pieces in my day to day style but I worry it’ll make me look a few years older.
It does look like she did her top lip though. Her lips were not both evenly full in the old photos, only the bottom was full. Her top lip was thin white girl lip like most have (me included).
I know they are popular these days, but to me, a tattoo is an absolute no in every single case, no matter the location on the body. It seems to hard to find ones without them these days. I'm sure many will vehemently disagree with my comment, since they are so popular. Also, more than one earring per ear to me is a no as well.
Pendulums swing, and I believe there is a shift happening where women are being encouraged to have natural makeup, unmarked bodies, etc. Likewise, young guys are being taught to perceive piercings/tattoos as red flags for wife material. Like it or not, every single sociological study on tattoo demographics in Western nations indicates that the less educated, mentally ill, single parents, people with risky lifestyles, etc. are more likely to have tattoos. Subconsciously, to others, a tattoo says "I have issues", or used to. In full transparency, the only time in my entire life I ever considered a tattoo was went I was at my lowest; and now that I'm living a great life I'm so glad I didn't...
I think tattoos are disgusting and sadly I was one of them with a tattoo! That tattoo is removed and completely erased from my skin. But that doesn’t stop me admitting my mistakes are hating tattoos! Also I don’t care about being offensive, because the more tattoos they have, the nastier attitude those people develop. They are the ones who go their own way and don’t give a sh&t about other’s opinion, so why should I care about?
I used to get migraines too, so I understand the aversion to perfumes. Ladies, we need to be sensitive to others “needs”. Thank you Anna. Great video, as usual. Also, I was taught by my mother, the “natural” look is always best. Today, I’m a “young” 60, have great skin, and wear a naturally made up face. This adds youthfulness to one’s appearance. 😊
@@correoordinario2010 I had a migraine 24/7 for years.I was referred to a neurologist who asked me "how many times a month?" and I couldnt answer the question! It was just one non-stop headache. Eventually my GP prescribed Effexor for hot flashes. It didn't do anything for my hot flashes, but after 6 weeks, I woke up one day and realized "my head doesnt hurt!" I quit taking effexor for two reasons: it made me hostile and aggressive, and then the pharmacy switched me to a generic form without my realizing it, and the generic form made me feel like I had bugs in my head. So I stopped. But the headaches have stayed few and far between, like only once every few years. I have Gabapentin to take now as needed. I won't take an SSRI on a daily basis ever again; they really do turn your personality inside-out
@@correoordinario2010 I've had terrible migraines all my life, and it was finally fixed by blood pressure medication. It turned out that my very high blood pressure was triggering. It got so bad that in February this year I was admitted to hospital, where I had MRI scans of my brain. The white matter of my brain was swelling, caused by high blood pressure. The blood pressure is now normal with medication, and I have not had a single migraine, not a single headache, since February. It's now early October. This is pretty amazing for me since I could easily have at least one migraine per week.
@@correoordinario2010 I used to get horrible migraines. I was getting them more and more frequently, tried several medications, diet changes, basically just whatever my doctor recommended and nothing was really helping. Whenever I started to get one I'd have to immediately take medication and try to go to sleep before it really hit. So far, the only thing I was able to do that made a difference was getting a daith piercing in my left ear (the side the migraines always start on for me). I'm not cured or anything, but there has been a significant reduction in frequency and severity! Personally I think it's cute too, but if you don't like the look you could get a really small/delicate jewelry that wouldn't be noticeable.
I don’t understand how people say you have fake or uneven lips, you’ve had and still have a beautiful smile, in my opinion, even your natural teeth looked good on you. The imperfections are okay. ❤
Oh for sure! I just say, today, on Facebook, someone dyed their hair bright green ''for Christmas''. Oh geez. It just looks awful. I mean, of course colours like blue and green will look horrible, because nobody naturally has those colours of hair.
Re: fake lips. In a video a plastic surgeon was talking about lips and said that there is a super easy way to tell if they are natural or not: if there are wrinkles on them, they are natural (think about Angelina Jolie's lips).
@@s.h.jacobs1960White people have more lip wrinkles in general than people of color. Most of my colored friends have smooth lips even when they don't use lipgloss or chapstick. So that rule is not universal. But he said that lips never grow bigger with age. So if a person suddenly has bigger or different shaped lips, it's a given.
Hi Anna, I am sorry that people have commented so unkindly regarding your lips, whether they are natural or not, such unkind comments shouldn't be directed to you, there are more mannerly ways to say something, as usual you are polite and respectful ❤
😱😱😱 well, I think Anna has been open book, so telling her truth only helps people to get better...if they take your opinion like many people listening to her even though she is not right always!
Years ago I worked in an office with rules about fragrance. I abided by those rules, but never gave the matter much thought. One day I arrived at work and found one of my co-workers lying on the floor struggling to breathe. One of our co-workers had laid on the perfume hard and caused a terrible reaction in our co-worker. Both women were sent home for the day. The one who wore the perfume was reprimanded. Since then, I have been a lot careful about fragrances.
I have that issue and a woman who didn't like me purposefully put on perfume at work. An ambulance was called and I sued her winning 50k. She ended up losing her condo and she deserved it. Hateful bish.
Over dyed crispy hair, scuffed heels, dirty sneakers/laces - not elegant.🤢 Also, those sarcastic overly dramatic expressions /gestures seen on many YT channels. These expressions are often used while “spilling the tea” or “clapping back”.😖
Regarding the teeth I hardly advise to wear braces instead of getting veneers ... First you can keep your natural teeth which is the most important thing and second this will definitely look more natural. Of course you have to be brave for a couple of years but it's so worth it. Best decision ever
Cleavage 😮 I was surprised that some people are really put off by a neckline is a bit too low. If I'm not mindful of what I'm doing, some guy will turn himself the other way when I forget what I'm doing like bend over to pick up something. Maybe it's my age, but even some people get nervous about facing another when the bust is overwhelming. This is one of the areas I've had to work the hardest on.
Cleavage, definitely! I saw a tourist on the train recently, wearing a low cut dress, and she was grappling with her large suitcase for most of the journey (the suitcase area of the train was already full when she boarded, so she had to keep moving it awkwardly). Seeing all that cleavage over and over, just was not classy🤦♀️
I love how your makeup always looks so natural and perfect, Anna, that’s my goal, too. Looking at your past photos, I think going more matte as well as lighter overall made a big difference. Shiny makeup had been a trend for ages, but I prefer semi-matte. A shiny nose isn’t appealing. Love your channel❤
I love perfume but the only ones I wear in public are the gourmands and they always get me compliments lol. I save the harsh ones for home, I love them but I know they won’t be popular.
Yeah, I don't love those veneers for her, but my girl Tay never misses. Maybe also for a stage performer, a bit on the whiter side is ideal.@@talktothehandreviews
My main tip: * Decide which part of your outfit is the statement piece. You might have a perfect string of pearls. This means that your neck is the statement piece. Pick a neckline that goes well with the pearls: let this determine which dress or top you wear. Now, because you decided your necklace is the first place peoples' eyes land, you need to create a path for the eyes to follow. If the neckline naturally leads the eye down, wear a skirt or pants that flatter your legs, and end the path with your shoes. Don't wear highly embellished shoes, that would risk the shoes pulling more interest than the necklace. If the neckline naturally leads the eye up, make your face and hair flatter you. Start with your neck: make absolutely certain that your foundation matches with your skin and that you blend it out seamlessly. Then choose either lips or eyes to highlight, but not both. Make certain your eyeshadow and lip colour complement not only each other, but the necklace. And make sure your hairstyle doesn't impede the view of your statement necklace. * Use the same principle when you want to make something else your core piece of your outfit. If your hairstyle is your statement, gradually lead the eye downwards but without overtaking the beauty of your hairstyle.
Too much perfume makes me sick whether it's from a man or woman! I tend to look more natural but I feel that the overly done ANYTHING screams "look at me everybody!" which may get the attention that you are striving for but in the long run, subdued and classy is always the best way to go! Successful people appreciate class.
Thank you for promoting subtle use of perfume! I too suffer migraine headaches and nausea from perfumes. People these days are using way too much, you can smell them from yards away. This excessive use not only lacks class but is arrogant and rude to bombard other people with your chemical perfume of choice. And yes, perfumes are made from chemicals!
When I worked at Sephora and I had to do makeup for British women, I had a really bad time because their makeup was very heavy and fake and made them look like caricatures. If you put makeup on them in a subtle and elegant way, they didn't like it and they ended up applying the makeup themselves until they looked like clowns. I remember they used foundations 5 shades darker...terrible.
Eye shapes change with the times. 1980's bushwhack thick brows, 90' ultra thin, Y2K surprised arch, and then the default- angry brow.😂 Today, thick,full brows are all the rave.☺️
I don't mind overly decorated nails as much as super long nails that look like claws. Especially on the toes, I really can't stand extra long toe nails, decorated or not...
Thank you Anna for pointing things out despite risking others’ negative response but I totally agree with all your advice mentioned in this video. Facial embroidery, facial hair upkeep, veneers , personal scent, lash extentions , nails and many other subtle aesthetic treatments are suppose to be subtle to enhance our look. Being harmonious , groomed and pleasant to look is a form of politeness and that needs special understanding in finding the sweet spots for different individual. Like you always said , the key is always discreet , discipline and consistent while maintaining quality. And that you always nails it! ❤❤
Anna, you're in a league of your own and your full lips are stunning. No straight man would complain, lol. People who aim to tear you down are simply insecure. Keep thriving Lady Anna. Let them see you soar 🙂!
Anna, I just want to let you know that I think your lips are positively beautiful! I happen to also have larger lips and remember someone making fun of me when I was a little girl. It wasn't until I was older that I realized it was jealousy! I love that you are teaching women to embrace their inner beauty. God bless you sweetie! ❤🥰
My choice of what makes the person looking cheaper: Yelling while talking, using slang words too much, interupting others when they are speaking, not washing hands before eating or touching food with hands, wearing too much brand logos, wearing a lot of fur, too big sunglasses with logo, poorly behaving to employees, talking about money and what they have to others, etc :)
Perfumes are really difficult for the chemically sensitive. Same goes for domestic fragrances (plug in air fresheners, laundry detergents and fabric softeners, cleaning products, scented candles etc.).
My dear elegant lady, I'm a long time subscriber and fan and I protest to being lied to. You're clearly pulling an Angelina Jolie. You were born with full lips but you're not happy to see that fullness decrease with age as it naturally does, so you get a little help to keep them plump and youthful looking. It's no crime, but it's plain as day that the ratio has changed unnaturally and the lower lip's shape. You look lovely all the same though.
I would say dirty shoes, long and unhealthy hair, hair extensions. Dear Anna, I thought your lips were beautiful. I did think they had fillers but either way you look gorgeous. Sending love to haters
The scary part about tattoos is that many people can have an allergic reaction to dye…and they don’t figure it out until AFTER they’ve had work done. It’s so scary if you google eyebrow tattoo disasters. This is scary.🥴
In my humble opinion obvious fillers and over the top photo and video editing as well as constantly worrying not to look cheap (internal judgment leading to external judgment) are great factors to not only look cheap but be cheap from the cell level to exterior while layering it with pretty cloths..
Thank you for mentioning this perfume issue ! I have severe migraines with aura also get physically nauseous..perfume cologne and cigarettes are severe triggers ! So great to bring up I have even been to doctors where the nurses smell like they are bathing in it ! A delicate amount of scent is feminine and nice ,but smelling a perfume from a mile away is awful because it can make others sick and also can age us too !
Yes, that's absolutely true ,and I agree with you Anna.. Based on perfume I have very serious health reaction for an strongest fragrance of them. Twice I have been seek on the buss. The other think based on perfumes dear ladies, please make sure that you have taked a shower before you will apply them on you! After workout at the gym, and badly smells your clothing but the perfume is mus have- it is a big no-no. With plenty positive energy 🌹
Personally for me it’s not about the nails decoration but the length…those super long pointed nails which have become so popular recently look just incredibly tacky 😅
Tattoos are a big one. They not only make you look cheap, but they make a woman look masculine and hard. A lot of women think they make you look cool and edgy-they don’t. They look terrible.
Her lipstick is her signature look. I just don't like her because she creates a cult that has titles and shit, very secluded to those people. Wish she'd help people grow like Big Machine helped her. A lot of people in Big Machine Records helped her to be famous (this is in contract as well) and she would rather start drama than actually consider those ppl. She's rich and famous anyway. And I don't like her songs anymore even if she grew a little. I like old albums. Hopefully, she'll get her karma and flunk, but that's impossible bec she already created a cult.
I don’t really care for Taylor’s music, but I never thought she looked cheap. She is super talented and has a reputation of being kind and authentic, so I respect her. I think it’s rude to put her on your video for clicks.
I'm not a fan of her music, but I agree the red lipstick looks great on her. Considering she's a billionaire, I think she would know more about looking expensive than the rest of us.
Exactly! It can look very glamorous and old Hollywood or bold and dramatic for an artistic expression. I personally have always used very bright red lipstick and it compliments my features and coloring for a wonderful effect. Not everyone can pull it off but those who do, it has the opposite affect of cheapened their look.
Also too much jewelry! Shiny massive rings and fake diamond earrings! Even if the diamonds were real I wouldn’t wear them in the middle of the day dear 😅
Hi Anna, can you talk about tattoos? I had two and had one removed. Now I wish I had none, I wish I has untouched pretty skin... However, there are many people that may not have the money to have them removed or they have so many that it's not feasible, yet they want to be more elegant. What are your opinions on this? ❤❤❤
I can very much relate! I made my share of mistakes as an 18-20 year old jumping on some trends and getting my arms tattooed. I’m currently on my tattoo removal journey. Luckily they are fine line floral tattoos that can be definitely removed with some time and money. For now I’m enjoying the cold Scandinavian weather which means being able to hide my unwanted tattoos under long sleeves for 9/12 months in a year 😊 Acceptance and self-forgiveness are key, but in the mean time try to focus on other aspects of your levelling up journey and one day you’ll come out on the other side having learnt a big life lesson. I keep reminding myself that there many worse mistakes one can make in life and an unwanted tattoo is not as bad as you might think. Good luck!
I have a big tattoo on my arm and now I wish I didn't have it, it just doesn't go with my style 😓 But probably I wouldn't remove it because it was my creative idea. Usually, I just wear longer sleeves to hide it and that's it 🤔
I have A flower sleeve and as a classy woman, I still love it ! It gives me a tad bit of edge, but still is very feminine. If tattoos are done right, they can be amazing.
Well, to some people tattoos are just horrible no matter how feminine or how well done their ‘owner’ thinks their are! I don’t care if it’s a flower, your child’s birthday or some sacred heritage symbol, they all look nasty! But you people don’t care about others opinions, so I’m not worried about being offensive. I had a tattoo and got it removed a couple of years later and cannot be happier with my decision - although I can still see some tiny scars if I get a tan, but no shade of the tattoo! I was young and stupid when I got it, and have been hating tattoos ever since! I will support anyone into having the courage to admit that they hate tattoos (either their own tattoos or just in general). Somehow these days you are forced into having positive attitude towards tattoos because they happen to be personal and permanent on someone’s body, but I will fight that and stand up for myself and my hatred towards tattoos.
Lashes triggered me lol that's me! guilty! I'd be going around with 3 of em sticking out hahaha And 100% agree with oral care. I think it's THE most important self-care for women AND men. Doesn't matter if you are wearing Tom Ford or rocking Zara, if you have clean teeth and smell nice, people wanna be around you and listen to you.
I can honestly say that your lips look great. Remember Angelina Jolie got also bullied for her lips, now everyone envies her for them. No one has a 100% symetrical face shape, so lips can look uneven. Never mind. I think your lips look beautiful.
Why is Taylor Swift on the thumbnail for a video like this? She is a celebrity with a team that probably curates looks for her. By Hollywood standards, IMHO Taylor is probably one of the best dressed celebrities out there.
In summer I had a traditional food, and I did not know that I had a black stain on my teeth. And I had to go urgently somewhere,I had a beautiful dress on, my hair was done... and came to a point when I look myself in the mirror 😫 and see the black stain 😲 now that Anna mentioned it, IT HURTS ME TWICE 😂
Sometimes I've wanted to go a little more aggressive in my makeup because I've wanted that look. Just because I wanted to appear like I'm not someone you can mess around
It’s really only the British, as far as I can tell, who obsess about having fake tans year-round. I think they are infinitely prettier without it. I don’t know why they persist, no one else in the world does! We all should accept our natural coloring, even if it’s pasty-white like mine. As much as I would love to have cafe au lait skin, it just isn’t going to happen. Tans from bottles always look super-fake.
San Tropez do make a nice fake tan. The key is to thoroughly exfoliate the elbows, knees and joints and apply with a mitt or a glove or brush. Moisturiser on the elbows, knees and joints as well, before applying. I'm an Aesthetician and it can look natural, but it's a lot of work to do, and it only lasts a few days. Less is more.
I'll be honest I actually thought you did do something to your lips....but turns out you're naturally blessed! Funny how all those comments about your lips were intended to be mean, but actually end up being a compliment!
I dont blame men, who find too much makeup unattractive. Men are simple creatures and, if we want to look natural, we should take their opinion into consideration. For instance, i always take my fathers' opinion on makeup/clothing e.t.c. into consideration. He has "an eye" for things that -after a certain point- become "too much".
My goodness! I just found your channel and you are beautiful ! I can’t believe anyone would criticize your appearance !! I’m older (75) so not trying to look young. Anyway, I love your personality also !
I remember one time I bought a perfume for my roommate. It looked cute. I didn't test it. She would wear it everyday but it did not smell good. I was so looking forward for the day to come, when she had no more. What happened next was she actually liked it and kept buying it, until eventually she did not. That was a tough one!
The same happened to me! She wasn't my room mate but a collegue/friend. I recieved a perfume as a "gift" from a company I buy my scincare from, and I hated it. I should have tossed it but I showed it to her. I said it smells awful on me but she said she liked it and kept using it. The thing is that everybody seems to like that perfume but me (and my daughter 17yo) and they keep asking me where I got it (after they smelled it on her)... I always tell I don't remember🤭 but every time I smell it on somebody I almost puke and have to get away from that person. I'm happy she didn't get a new bottle when it was finnished. She never figured out that you can read on the bottle who made it...
Don't bother about people talking about your lips, they are beautiful! And some of us elegant ladies are just jealous😅! I love your videos, you are really funny! 😂❤😂

Chipped nail polish🙈 that is one of biggest pet peves... especially on the fingers, the toes could still be hidden, but your hands are on display constantly...
Dirty hair
Cheap looking jewellery (or one that doesn't match your undertone)
Excellent list! I have two tips: my nail polish often chips, so to avoid it looking bad, I just use clear or very natural coloured polish; Two: rather than eyelash extensions, I use an eyelash conditioner/serum. I'm 58, blonde with fine short lashes. For the last 3 months I've used an eyelash serum every night, and my lashes look longer, darker and fuller. I've had strangers compliment me on my long natural lashes. So I would try the conditioning option before going for extensions.
Bra strap or any part of your bra or panties showing. But especially bra strap.
Dolly Parton said "sweetheart, it takes a lot of money to look this cheap". Love her.
Who doesn't? Divine Dolly
Met Dolly once, while waiting for the elevator, outside of our doc’s office, on the outskirts of Beverly Hills (not a plastic surgery doc, either, lol).. She told me I had the most beautiful alabaster skin, and quite a mysterious look (I had on a extra large black brimmed floppy hat, large black sunglasses, and an off the shoulder, long sleeve, black dress)..
I told her it was all to protect said alabaster skin.
It was a lovely, unexpected surprise.
She was just as kind as she comes off as, in the media.
And I must be doin’ something right.. 😅
Dolly is known to treat others with respect. That's what makes her attractive. ❤
Cher once said if she wanted to put her boobs on her back she would. Do what you want if it makes you feel better about yourself. Personally, I’ve had 😊no work done and don’t intend to but to each their own.
Lol 😂 👍🏻
I personally find over decorated nails very tacky. 🤡
They’re only cute for pictures but really uncomfortable and unpractical for everyday wear. Even bold gel nail colours can limit one’s wardrobe choices.
I hate false nails full stop.
I agree. Decorated nails are absolutely not classy. Rather, they can cheapen an entire outfit.
even the "accent nail" alone looks tacky
Omg same. It’s ratchet lol
The cheapest thing someone can do is to wear clothes that are not ironed and shoes that are dirty. It's something that people often overlook, but when your clothes are well-ironed, and you regularly clean your shoes, you always look fresh
Good point ✅ !!! ❤ this!
I'm disabled and cannot stand to iron clothes. I however take them straight out of rhe washing machine and hang them, so they don't look like crumpled dish rags...

A bad spray tan makes one look very cheap.
All spray tan is tacky. Skin colour should not be a fashion trend.
@@taytayqueen7024 Agreed!
Megnut markle 😅

Anything overdone tends to look cheap / tacky, whether it be makeup, hair or nails. Simplicity always looks elegant and classy.
Not to forget fillers...
I always say when you start to look like a clown, there is a borderline
And uh.... plastic surgery...
The golden rule when it comes to teeth is: NEVER GO WHITER THAN THE WHITE PART OF YOUR EYES. The white of your eyes should be the lightest shade possible for your teeth. Anything lighter looks uncanny.
Great advice!
Yes and this lady's teeth do not look natural at all, there are veneers that mimic the natural shape/lines of the teeth and there are poorly made veneers that look bumpy and big and plastic, unfortunately Anna has not been lucky in choosing her dentist.
Cool, except if you have a bloodshot eyes 😂 Here is the tip: make sure your earrings emphasize your eye color. My friend who works in diamond industry got that job because she could see colors better than many other applicants. And her advice on what color jewels I should wear “changed my life” 😂 It’s incredible how people notice your eyes if matched with right earring color.
False eyelashes/extensions so long and thick, they look like garage doors opening/closing.
In my opinion, lack of hair grooming, messy bun, tangled up hair and overly outgrown out roots just make you stand out for the wrong reasons in public and of course, undoubtedly cheapen your look.
Agree. If one dyes/bleaches their hair it should be maintained carefully to look good, if that's not possible then imo natural color is the best option. I also think many problems that can make your hair look frumpy could be solved by adding a leave-in conditioner suitable to your hair type to your routine.
Dripping wet or super greasy dirty hair!
I agree although i'm guilty of the messy bun sometimes 😅
Damage, aka breakage and split ends...it's better to have unbleached, naturally textured shorter hair, than trying to force a straight long bleach blonde that's broken.
Black roots with blonde hair color, unattractive!!
Anything permanent on your face is a no-no... What you like in your 20s is not what you're going to like in your 40s. Especially the color black might look good in your twenties but look horrible in your 40s. Now if it gradually wears away well that's a different story. If it's permanent say no.
I have had a permanent eyeliner tatoos for the last 8 years. I just need to add wings when needed. Best decision ever 😂
💯 agree
I don't know, even Anna had a nose job. I have seen some really nice nose jobs, and that lasts a lifetime. But you still have to be careful, nose jobs have a high revision rate.
@@labornurse my fiance had his nose done due to having it broken badly and it's not been redone since then and it looks great still. I will say though, he gets sick easier having had it done and he also can't pick blackheads because his nose is sensitive to being pushed down and such
Try Nano-brows, Im 41 and was a typical 90s teen with overplucked brows. I got nanobrows this year and it is incredibly natural-looking and not painful at all like microbrows are.
Eyelash extensions have gotten out of control in my opinion! I love the natural ones but as my grandma put it “why do you need to look like Las Vegas at the gym?” 😂 I lasted a few months and stopped getting them after her honest opinion
they look so trashy
When choosing a colour for veneers - never go vwhiter than the whites of your eyes
That's a good piece of advice!
Thank you. Helpful advice. Keep things in harmony.
Thanks to Anna I no longer wear a hair elastic on my wrist, and I keep my nails trimmed with a very light polish. Instantly makes me look more polished.
Yes the hair tie on the wrist is such a simple bit impactful one!!
For hair elastics I use thin satin scrunchies in colors like bronze, soft golds or white silver, or other soft colors.
That's one of her tips that I instantly took note of haha. I used to ALWAYS have a hair tie just sitting on my wrist. Anna pointing that out made me remove it and try to keep it in my pocket instead. I rarely reach for it because I never used it that much. Just goes to show how much it was just being used as an ugly bracelet.
Ladies, hair elastic on hand is an element that may serve you or not depending on it's color, volume and if it matches your outfit.
@@aliciagc2539 agree.. but i do miss my "emotional support scrunchie" lol
I’m so sorry to hear you were bullied 😢 even now as an adult …..words hurt … not okay ❤
I find your work very honest and videos so very well prepared
There is nothing more beautiful than a self assured woman who knows exactly who she is … just my opinion❤
Jennifer Scott from The Daily Connoisseur had great advice not to start certain beauty treatments that are not going to be well maintained. I agree that short buffed nails look better than thick gel nails with regrowth at the bottom. The same goes for highlights that are long grown out and brassy.
Very true, also in that category, when people get lash extensions but don’t keep up with them so there are some short and some long lashes, looks so bad😬
Was reading comments while watching the video, now I got to the part where she says this, whoops haha
The Daily Connoisseur, great etiquette also!
The secret is be natural.. just grow your own nails, wear your own hair, love your own skin.. super maintainable and beautiful
Really appreciate Jennifer Scott’s advice
I think what’s important for altering your appearance is harmony! The overall balance and flow of your appearance is important in my opinion when choosing to do something that could alter your appearance. Makes everything look elevated as a whole.
I agree-that’s why I’m glad seasonal colors have become trendy again, because it’s a much more accessible approach to color theory for laypeople, and it really helps with dressing harmoniously in a flattering way!
Sorry but face tattoes are vulgar even if they're well made.
I would add, dressing younger than your age. I used to think that I would always want the freedom to dress like someone in their 20's but now I realize that there is beauty in choosing to dress more elegant and adapting your style the older you get.
I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately.. I’m 24 I like dressing modestly and I’ve been trying to incorporate more elegant pieces in my day to day style but I worry it’ll make me look a few years older.
Yes, good point. Dressing elegantly at any age guarantees you look good regardless of the phase of life one is in.
I think elegant is a style whether you're young or middle age. Some people are just stupid in what they choose to wear regardless of their age
@@sabrinaandhusband7791 exactly! It’s timeless.
@@jasminecontreras7341 you are too young to think about this :)
I prefer perfume oils. I wear Amber a lot and always get compliments. I find them to be more elegant and even healthier than your typical perfumes
Like the roll ons? Or do you mean essential oils?
I miss being able to get them. It's been years & they lasted for hours just a dot on your neck or a wrist & the smell divine.
A lot of tattoos cheapen the appearance of a person✌🏻
All.
I second that.
Overly tanned, too much perfume and overly decorated nails are my pet peeves.
Yes, I also thought you had fake lips 😶🌫️
You even showed your lips and complained they were "OVER DONE" in one video, Anna. Have you forgotten ?
She does she gets fillers she never said she didn't.
It does look like she did her top lip though. Her lips were not both evenly full in the old photos, only the bottom was full. Her top lip was thin white girl lip like most have (me included).
Anna, I love your content but please don’t put the screaming effects in the video. The effects are similar to what strong perfume does to your head 😢
I know they are popular these days, but to me, a tattoo is an absolute no in every single case, no matter the location on the body. It seems to hard to find ones without them these days. I'm sure many will vehemently disagree with my comment, since they are so popular. Also, more than one earring per ear to me is a no as well.
I genuinely don't get the popularity of tattoos. Plus they fade and bleed overtime and look worse.
Pendulums swing, and I believe there is a shift happening where women are being encouraged to have natural makeup, unmarked bodies, etc. Likewise, young guys are being taught to perceive piercings/tattoos as red flags for wife material. Like it or not, every single sociological study on tattoo demographics in Western nations indicates that the less educated, mentally ill, single parents, people with risky lifestyles, etc. are more likely to have tattoos. Subconsciously, to others, a tattoo says "I have issues", or used to.
In full transparency, the only time in my entire life I ever considered a tattoo was went I was at my lowest; and now that I'm living a great life I'm so glad I didn't...
I think tattoos are disgusting and sadly I was one of them with a tattoo! That tattoo is removed and completely erased from my skin.
But that doesn’t stop me admitting my mistakes are hating tattoos! Also I don’t care about being offensive, because the more tattoos they have, the nastier attitude those people develop. They are the ones who go their own way and don’t give a sh&t about other’s opinion, so why should I care about?
@@EbbaOm-fl7fyyou are rather harsh. I have met several tattooed men who were very gentle & caring.
Agree with everything you said. Never liked tattoos.
As many bad haircuts that I have gotten, I dare not get a facial tattoo
😂😂 so true!!
I used to get migraines too, so I understand the aversion to perfumes. Ladies, we need to be sensitive to others “needs”. Thank you Anna. Great video, as usual.
Also, I was taught by my mother, the “natural” look is always best. Today, I’m a “young” 60, have great skin, and wear a naturally made up face. This adds youthfulness to one’s appearance. 😊
How did you get rid off migraines? Please, I suffer them too and it's a torture 😢
@@correoordinario2010 avoiding sugar is a good start
@@correoordinario2010 I had a migraine 24/7 for years.I was referred to a neurologist who asked me "how many times a month?" and I couldnt answer the question! It was just one non-stop headache.
Eventually my GP prescribed Effexor for hot flashes. It didn't do anything for my hot flashes, but after 6 weeks, I woke up one day and realized "my head doesnt hurt!"
I quit taking effexor for two reasons: it made me hostile and aggressive, and then the pharmacy switched me to a generic form without my realizing it, and the generic form made me feel like I had bugs in my head. So I stopped. But the headaches have stayed few and far between, like only once every few years. I have Gabapentin to take now as needed. I won't take an SSRI on a daily basis ever again; they really do turn your personality inside-out
@@correoordinario2010 I've had terrible migraines all my life, and it was finally fixed by blood pressure medication. It turned out that my very high blood pressure was triggering. It got so bad that in February this year I was admitted to hospital, where I had MRI scans of my brain. The white matter of my brain was swelling, caused by high blood pressure. The blood pressure is now normal with medication, and I have not had a single migraine, not a single headache, since February. It's now early October. This is pretty amazing for me since I could easily have at least one migraine per week.
@@correoordinario2010 I used to get horrible migraines. I was getting them more and more frequently, tried several medications, diet changes, basically just whatever my doctor recommended and nothing was really helping. Whenever I started to get one I'd have to immediately take medication and try to go to sleep before it really hit. So far, the only thing I was able to do that made a difference was getting a daith piercing in my left ear (the side the migraines always start on for me). I'm not cured or anything, but there has been a significant reduction in frequency and severity! Personally I think it's cute too, but if you don't like the look you could get a really small/delicate jewelry that wouldn't be noticeable.
Why would you ever get your face tattooed at all? It's going to eventually fade and discolor no matter how good it looks initially.
I don’t understand how people say you have fake or uneven lips, you’ve had and still have a beautiful smile, in my opinion, even your natural teeth looked good on you. The imperfections are okay. ❤
Visible bra straps cheapens all the way!!!
I’m so glad you addressed the thick black eyeliner. Women in my area only put one thick black line under their eye. WHY?!?! 😅
Cussing and/or using slang instead of proper English.
I personally think dying the hair in unnatural Color would cheapen the look as well, like pink, green, purple, etc.
Ohhh, yessss, my covorker painted her hair in purple, so baaaad😂😅
Absolutely!
Oh for sure! I just say, today, on Facebook, someone dyed their hair bright green ''for Christmas''. Oh geez. It just looks awful. I mean, of course colours like blue and green will look horrible, because nobody naturally has those colours of hair.
Re: fake lips. In a video a plastic surgeon was talking about lips and said that there is a super easy way to tell if they are natural or not: if there are wrinkles on them, they are natural (think about Angelina Jolie's lips).
Well, I have full lips, no wrinkles. "A plastic surgeon" is one person who cannot be considered the universal authority on lips.
@@s.h.jacobs1960White people have more lip wrinkles in general than people of color. Most of my colored friends have smooth lips even when they don't use lipgloss or chapstick. So that rule is not universal. But he said that lips never grow bigger with age. So if a person suddenly has bigger or different shaped lips, it's a given.
Same
@@s.h.jacobs1960all humans havs lines on (not over) their lips. Children have them too. Many you misunderstood what she meant?
Hi Anna, I am sorry that people have commented so unkindly regarding your lips, whether they are natural or not, such unkind comments shouldn't be directed to you, there are more mannerly ways to say something, as usual you are polite and respectful ❤
😱😱😱 well, I think Anna has been open book, so telling her truth only helps people to get better...if they take your opinion like many people listening to her even though she is not right always!
I think oversized boob implants cheapen a look especially on someone with a small frame and when they wear skimpy tops with no bra
Super long and thick fake lashes 😬 Very trendy in America right now and it looks trashy.
Years ago I worked in an office with rules about fragrance. I abided by those rules, but never gave the matter much thought. One day I arrived at work and found one of my co-workers lying on the floor struggling to breathe. One of our co-workers had laid on the perfume hard and caused a terrible reaction in our co-worker. Both women were sent home for the day. The one who wore the perfume was reprimanded. Since then, I have been a lot careful about fragrances.
I have that issue and a woman who didn't like me purposefully put on perfume at work. An ambulance was called and I sued her winning 50k. She ended up losing her condo and she deserved it. Hateful bish.
Over dyed crispy hair, scuffed heels, dirty sneakers/laces - not elegant.🤢 Also, those sarcastic overly dramatic expressions /gestures seen on many YT channels. These expressions are often used while “spilling the tea” or “clapping back”.😖
Something that can make us look less elegant and not a lot of people are talking about is too much piercings.
I think too much lip filler makes women look cheap.
Cracked heels, ashy hands, bad cuticles😊
Stop 💀 please I’m been exhausted for days, don’t call me out 😭😭
I've never gotten anything but GREAT advice from this lady❤
She's classic, and harsh makeup can look like a drag queen
Anna, you were so funny when you spoke about false eye lashes😂 I love you♥️
Thank you for being so generous by sharing your knowledge with us. Much love from Morocco 🇲🇦 ❤️
Regarding the teeth I hardly advise to wear braces instead of getting veneers ... First you can keep your natural teeth which is the most important thing and second this will definitely look more natural. Of course you have to be brave for a couple of years but it's so worth it. Best decision ever
Cleavage 😮 I was surprised that some people are really put off by a neckline is a bit too low. If I'm not mindful of what I'm doing, some guy will turn himself the other way when I forget what I'm doing like bend over to pick up something. Maybe it's my age, but even some people get nervous about facing another when the bust is overwhelming. This is one of the areas I've had to work the hardest on.
Cleavage, definitely!
I saw a tourist on the train recently, wearing a low cut dress, and she was grappling with her large suitcase for most of the journey (the suitcase area of the train was already full when she boarded, so she had to keep moving it awkwardly).
Seeing all that cleavage over and over, just was not classy🤦♀️
I’ve always thought that short nails, well, manicured, look classy, whereas long nails, don’t.
I love how your makeup always looks so natural and perfect, Anna, that’s my goal, too. Looking at your past photos, I think going more matte as well as lighter overall made a big difference. Shiny makeup had been a trend for ages, but I prefer semi-matte. A shiny nose isn’t appealing. Love your channel❤
The fastest way to be classy, is to be mindful of what you say to, and about others. Classy is not a look, it's a lifestyle. 👌🌈🙏💐🎁😘
What a great comment!
I love perfume but the only ones I wear in public are the gourmands and they always get me compliments lol. I save the harsh ones for home, I love them but I know they won’t be popular.
Nope. That red lipstick has helped make her a world famous multi-millionaire.
I never heard her mention Tailor, but I was ready to defend her! LOL. Although I do love Anna.
Yeah, I don't love those veneers for her, but my girl Tay never misses. Maybe also for a stage performer, a bit on the whiter side is ideal.@@talktothehandreviews
My main tip:
* Decide which part of your outfit is the statement piece. You might have a perfect string of pearls. This means that your neck is the statement piece. Pick a neckline that goes well with the pearls: let this determine which dress or top you wear.
Now, because you decided your necklace is the first place peoples' eyes land, you need to create a path for the eyes to follow.
If the neckline naturally leads the eye down, wear a skirt or pants that flatter your legs, and end the path with your shoes. Don't wear highly embellished shoes, that would risk the shoes pulling more interest than the necklace.
If the neckline naturally leads the eye up, make your face and hair flatter you. Start with your neck: make absolutely certain that your foundation matches with your skin and that you blend it out seamlessly. Then choose either lips or eyes to highlight, but not both. Make certain your eyeshadow and lip colour complement not only each other, but the necklace. And make sure your hairstyle doesn't impede the view of your statement necklace.
* Use the same principle when you want to make something else your core piece of your outfit. If your hairstyle is your statement, gradually lead the eye downwards but without overtaking the beauty of your hairstyle.
Too much perfume makes me sick whether it's from a man or woman!
I tend to look more natural but I feel that the overly done ANYTHING screams "look at me everybody!" which may get the attention that you are striving for but in the long run, subdued and classy is always the best way to go! Successful people appreciate class.
Thank you for promoting subtle use of perfume! I too suffer migraine headaches and nausea from perfumes. People these days are using way too much, you can smell them from yards away. This excessive use not only lacks class but is arrogant and rude to bombard other people with your chemical perfume of choice. And yes, perfumes are made from chemicals!
I hate Crocs worn as part of an outfit. (I don't care about people working on their feet like nurses, etc.)
To many facial piercings, nasal septum, eyebrow piercings, multiple nose piercings, 6+ ear piercings
Whitening damages your teeth, so check out Dr. Ellie Philips.
For veneers i have a tip: dont go kinda lighter than eye whites.
When I worked at Sephora and I had to do makeup for British women, I had a really bad time because their makeup was very heavy and fake and made them look like caricatures. If you put makeup on them in a subtle and elegant way, they didn't like it and they ended up applying the makeup themselves until they looked like clowns. I remember they used foundations 5 shades darker...terrible.
You are right about that! Some Beauty TH-camrs do that too, and it just looks like they don't 'get' makeup is meant to enhance, not mask.
tattoo, smoking, too revealing cleavage
Eye shapes change with the times. 1980's bushwhack thick brows, 90' ultra thin, Y2K surprised arch, and then the default- angry brow.😂 Today, thick,full brows are all the rave.☺️
I don't mind overly decorated nails as much as super long nails that look like claws. Especially on the toes, I really can't stand extra long toe nails, decorated or not...
Thank you Anna for pointing things out despite risking others’ negative response but I totally agree with all your advice mentioned in this video.
Facial embroidery, facial hair upkeep, veneers , personal scent, lash extentions , nails and many other subtle aesthetic treatments are suppose to be subtle to enhance our look. Being harmonious , groomed and pleasant to look is a form of politeness and that needs special understanding in finding the sweet spots for different individual. Like you always said , the key is always discreet , discipline and consistent while maintaining quality. And that you always nails it! ❤❤
Anna, you're in a league of your own and your full lips are stunning. No straight man would complain, lol. People who aim to tear you down are simply insecure. Keep thriving Lady Anna. Let them see you soar 🙂!
Lip fillers really cheapen woman’s look. Imagine Kate Middleton with huge lips, it’s unimaginable ! 😅
Anna, I just want to let you know that I think your lips are positively beautiful! I happen to also have larger lips and remember someone making fun of me when I was a little girl. It wasn't until I was older that I realized it was jealousy! I love that you are teaching women to embrace their inner beauty. God bless you sweetie! ❤🥰
My choice of what makes the person looking cheaper: Yelling while talking, using slang words too much, interupting others when they are speaking, not washing hands before eating or touching food with hands, wearing too much brand logos, wearing a lot of fur, too big sunglasses with logo, poorly behaving to employees, talking about money and what they have to others, etc :)
Be careful with tattoos because as we age our skin may sag or droop. Then one eyebrow might be lower than the other. Just a thought.
Perfumes are really difficult for the chemically sensitive. Same goes for domestic fragrances (plug in air fresheners, laundry detergents and fabric softeners, cleaning products, scented candles etc.).
My dear elegant lady, I'm a long time subscriber and fan and I protest to being lied to.
You're clearly pulling an Angelina Jolie.
You were born with full lips but you're not happy to see that fullness decrease with age as it naturally does, so you get a little help to keep them plump and youthful looking.
It's no crime, but it's plain as day that the ratio has changed unnaturally and the lower lip's shape.
You look lovely all the same though.
I would say dirty shoes, long and unhealthy hair, hair extensions. Dear Anna, I thought your lips were beautiful. I did think they had fillers but either way you look gorgeous. Sending love to haters
The scary part about tattoos is that many people can have an allergic reaction to dye…and they don’t figure it out until AFTER they’ve had work done. It’s so scary if you google eyebrow tattoo disasters.
This is scary.🥴
In my humble opinion obvious fillers and over the top photo and video editing as well as constantly worrying not to look cheap (internal judgment leading to external judgment) are great factors to not only look cheap but be cheap from the cell level to exterior while layering it with pretty cloths..
Thank you for mentioning this perfume issue ! I have severe migraines with aura also get physically nauseous..perfume cologne and cigarettes are severe triggers ! So great to bring up I have even been to doctors where the nurses smell like they are bathing in it ! A delicate amount of scent is feminine and nice ,but smelling a perfume from a mile away is awful because it can make others sick and also can age us too !
Yes, that's absolutely true ,and I agree with you Anna.. Based on perfume I have very serious health reaction for an strongest fragrance of them. Twice I have been seek on the buss.
The other think based on perfumes dear ladies, please make sure that you have taked a shower before you will apply them on you!
After workout at the gym, and badly smells your clothing but the perfume is mus have- it is a big no-no.
With plenty positive energy 🌹
Personally for me it’s not about the nails decoration but the length…those super long pointed nails which have become so popular recently look just incredibly tacky 😅
Tattoos are a big one. They not only make you look cheap, but they make a woman look masculine and hard. A lot of women think they make you look cool and edgy-they don’t. They look terrible.
Yes! Especially tattoos on the chest, face and hands. Un-feminine.
And they have to live with it for the rest of their lives.....
I think Taylor's lipstick easily shows her dramatic expressions.
It doesn't make her look cheap at all. She carries it very well.
Her lipstick is her signature look. I just don't like her because she creates a cult that has titles and shit, very secluded to those people.
Wish she'd help people grow like Big Machine helped her.
A lot of people in Big Machine Records helped her to be famous (this is in contract as well) and she would rather start drama than actually consider those ppl. She's rich and famous anyway.
And I don't like her songs anymore even if she grew a little. I like old albums.
Hopefully, she'll get her karma and flunk, but that's impossible bec she already created a cult.
I don’t really care for Taylor’s music, but I never thought she looked cheap.
She is super talented and has a reputation of being kind and authentic, so I respect her. I think it’s rude to put her on your video for clicks.
I'm not a fan of her music, but I agree the red lipstick looks great on her. Considering she's a billionaire, I think she would know more about looking expensive than the rest of us.
Exactly! It can look very glamorous and old Hollywood or bold and dramatic for an artistic expression. I personally have always used very bright red lipstick and it compliments my features and coloring for a wonderful effect. Not everyone can pull it off but those who do, it has the opposite affect of cheapened their look.
Also too much jewelry! Shiny massive rings and fake diamond earrings! Even if the diamonds were real I wouldn’t wear them in the middle of the day dear 😅
I can’t believe anyone people say negative things about your appearance. You are so sweet and very knowledgeable as well as beautiful
I got eyebrow tattoos and they faded and are barely visible now. I think its a waste of money
Most eyebrow tattoos are meant to be semi permanent and are supposed to fade in a natural way.
@@LM48888 semi permanent as in good for only a year? waste of money
You can use eyebrow tint refectocil to refill them.
Thank you for talking about perfumes. I also suffer from terrible headaches and can feel ill for days after exposure to them.
I came here for Taylor Swift thumbnail though😅
Hi Anna, can you talk about tattoos? I had two and had one removed. Now I wish I had none, I wish I has untouched pretty skin... However, there are many people that may not have the money to have them removed or they have so many that it's not feasible, yet they want to be more elegant. What are your opinions on this? ❤❤❤
Where are they? They can often be concealed with some creativity.
I can very much relate! I made my share of mistakes as an 18-20 year old jumping on some trends and getting my arms tattooed. I’m currently on my tattoo removal journey. Luckily they are fine line floral tattoos that can be definitely removed with some time and money. For now I’m enjoying the cold Scandinavian weather which means being able to hide my unwanted tattoos under long sleeves for 9/12 months in a year 😊 Acceptance and self-forgiveness are key, but in the mean time try to focus on other aspects of your levelling up journey and one day you’ll come out on the other side having learnt a big life lesson. I keep reminding myself that there many worse mistakes one can make in life and an unwanted tattoo is not as bad as you might think. Good luck!
I have a big tattoo on my arm and now I wish I didn't have it, it just doesn't go with my style 😓 But probably I wouldn't remove it because it was my creative idea. Usually, I just wear longer sleeves to hide it and that's it 🤔
I have A flower sleeve and as a classy woman, I still love it ! It gives me a tad bit of edge, but still is very feminine. If tattoos are done right, they can be amazing.
Well, to some people tattoos are just horrible no matter how feminine or how well done their ‘owner’ thinks their are! I don’t care if it’s a flower, your child’s birthday or some sacred heritage symbol, they all look nasty! But you people don’t care about others opinions, so I’m not worried about being offensive. I had a tattoo and got it removed a couple of years later and cannot be happier with my decision - although I can still see some tiny scars if I get a tan, but no shade of the tattoo! I was young and stupid when I got it, and have been hating tattoos ever since! I will support anyone into having the courage to admit that they hate tattoos (either their own tattoos or just in general). Somehow these days you are forced into having positive attitude towards tattoos because they happen to be personal and permanent on someone’s body, but I will fight that and stand up for myself and my hatred towards tattoos.
Brittle hair , caky foundation 😢
Lashes triggered me lol that's me! guilty! I'd be going around with 3 of em sticking out hahaha And 100% agree with oral care. I think it's THE most important self-care for women AND men. Doesn't matter if you are wearing Tom Ford or rocking Zara, if you have clean teeth and smell nice, people wanna be around you and listen to you.
Those who have a problem with perfumes and strong fragrances could never survive in Dubai, Qatar, Saudi
I can honestly say that your lips look great. Remember Angelina Jolie got also bullied for her lips, now everyone envies her for them. No one has a 100% symetrical face shape, so lips can look uneven. Never mind. I think your lips look beautiful.
I've never liked Angelina Jolie's lips. So not everybody...
@@tessltaekook8501 Ok, you don't. But i like them on both. Angelina's and Anna's.
Why is Taylor Swift on the thumbnail for a video like this? She is a celebrity with a team that probably curates looks for her. By Hollywood standards, IMHO Taylor is probably one of the best dressed celebrities out there.
In summer I had a traditional food, and I did not know that I had a black stain on my teeth.
And I had to go urgently somewhere,I had a beautiful dress on, my hair was done... and came to a point when I look myself in the mirror 😫 and see the black stain 😲 now that Anna mentioned it, IT HURTS ME TWICE 😂
Sometimes I've wanted to go a little more aggressive in my makeup because I've wanted that look. Just because I wanted to appear like I'm not someone you can mess around
Don't do it (the harsh makeup that is). Instead just reply, "...I'm supremely uninterested" when people get on your nerves lol.
Thank you, Ana! Those tips are very useful. Sometimes, we don't realize that. Love you ❤
It’s really only the British, as far as I can tell, who obsess about having fake tans year-round. I think they are infinitely prettier without it. I don’t know why they persist, no one else in the world does! We all should accept our natural coloring, even if it’s pasty-white like mine. As much as I would love to have cafe au lait skin, it just isn’t going to happen. Tans from bottles always look super-fake.
There’s quite a bit of fake tanning in America too, but I think a little less. I agree with you- natural looks good for everyone.
tattoos and multiple piercings make one look cheap
You have a skewed impression because you only notice bad ones...
San Tropez do make a nice fake tan.
The key is to thoroughly exfoliate the elbows, knees and joints and apply with a mitt or a glove or brush. Moisturiser on the elbows, knees and joints as well, before applying. I'm an Aesthetician and it can look natural, but it's a lot of work to do, and it only lasts a few days. Less is more.
I think maintaining a neat, presentable hairstyle is also very important. First impression counts!
I'll be honest I actually thought you did do something to your lips....but turns out you're naturally blessed! Funny how all those comments about your lips were intended to be mean, but actually end up being a compliment!
I dont blame men, who find too much makeup unattractive. Men are simple creatures and, if we want to look natural, we should take their opinion into consideration. For instance, i always take my fathers' opinion on makeup/clothing e.t.c. into consideration. He has "an eye" for things that -after a certain point- become "too much".
My goodness! I just found your channel and you are beautiful ! I can’t believe anyone would criticize your appearance !! I’m older (75) so not trying to look young. Anyway, I love your personality also !
I remember one time I bought a perfume for my roommate. It looked cute. I didn't test it. She would wear it everyday but it did not smell good. I was so looking forward for the day to come, when she had no more. What happened next was she actually liked it and kept buying it, until eventually she did not. That was a tough one!
The same happened to me! She wasn't my room mate but a collegue/friend. I recieved a perfume as a "gift" from a company I buy my scincare from, and I hated it. I should have tossed it but I showed it to her. I said it smells awful on me but she said she liked it and kept using it. The thing is that everybody seems to like that perfume but me (and my daughter 17yo) and they keep asking me where I got it (after they smelled it on her)... I always tell I don't remember🤭 but every time I smell it on somebody I almost puke and have to get away from that person. I'm happy she didn't get a new bottle when it was finnished. She never figured out that you can read on the bottle who made it...
Don't bother about people talking about your lips, they are beautiful! And some of us elegant ladies are just jealous😅! I love your videos, you are really funny! 😂❤😂
