I love Sam, she is best OG make up artist. I love that she is focusing on us older ladies, her make up is so wearable & I just love her realness. She offers a wealth of information and I'm a complete fan girl.
Perfect timing for some upcoming work travel! And now when I get ready for work I'm going to hear "London Professional Lady" in Sam's voice and it's going to make me giggle every time!
That Nars night brightener is gorgeous. What a perfect product for women older than 20 some😂 and I love how you brushed all the shadows together. Gorgeous!
I’m looking at that and the Elf luminous bronzer in the Vacay Mood she used. The luminous sheen without being shimmery is gorgeous on the skin, both under the eyes and as a sunkissed look while seeing the sheen just when the light hits it. Elf is really duping these high end brands like they said, turning their whole brand into prestigious products while still being really fairly/affordably priced. These high end n luxury brands better watch out. When these low end drugstore brands are able to make the same if not better products for a fraction of the price, it shows what a rip off these high end brands are.
I've been watching you and Nic since 2009, but I'll never forget our Canadian friend Samantha Ravndahl mentioning both of you in a video. She said you ladies did the most amazing makeup tutorials, always looked so elegant, and like you had the "right" amount of makeup on (I think she's met you at a few events). She was so right, and that's something that has always distinguished you ladies. Nothing wrong at all with being or looking heavily made up, but it's just not everyone's preference.
love this! from a 49 year old with no brows ( because I was stupid and wanted to look like Kate Moss) Your brow application has saved me! thanks for showing me how!
This is the type of makeup I would wear to do my groceries 🙂. Always full face, especially for work when everything has to stay in place. Thank you for this lovely look
I was doing my makeup this morning whilst watching this video. Moments before you applied the Rare Beauty eyeshadow stick, I’d started applying my Rare Beauty eyeshadow stick. When you said the shade name, I looked at mine & nearly fell off my chair when it was the same shade. You’ve clearly had an influence on me, over the years.
Sam, I have realised tonight that I have been watching you / Pixiwoo for 15 years now, the thought of it is crazy 😊 you are as beautiful as ever and I still love the videos ❤
Eu mi am tatuat sprancele......sunt superbe acum.... fffff frumos, f bine, arata ca naturale, am scapat de o grija si de timpul pierdut cu aranjatul lor zilnic..... Va sfatuiesc sa le TATUATI! ☺️♥️🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
lol, burned twigs. That is a real reference to over mascara’d lashes. Sam, your beauty is captivating. A beautiful look for a lady 🥰 Regards from Florida 🌴
I’m so happy you’re back. I learned to do mu well w/you back in the Aughts. I remember loving nothing better than coming home after work and relaxing to a Pixiwoo video. I am as stunned by your beauty and talent now as I was then. Thank you for not fading into obscurity just because you hit middle age. We possess our own, confident beauty. 😉
At 48, I have learned so much from you over the years! I so appreciate this video. I’m at a point in my life where I still absolutely LOVE makeup, but less is so much more for me. And I have definitely changed the way I apply it. I’ve been going for a more subtle look for a few years now. Thank you for still sharing your phenomenal techniques and knowledge.❤
It is so so so so BEAUTIFUL! I must rewatch and try it on me. Absolutely classy and warm, which is rare in a business lady type make up. It looks luke a Burberry perfume: the Burberry Blush. ❤ thank you ! Thank you ❤ Hi from Versailles!
This is lovely 🤩 Could you please do one for us with no eyelid space at all 😂 Very hooded eyes. For me it feels pointless to use eyeshadow because it doesn’t show any way. 🥴
I have a Canmake cream blush which is lovely and also sometimes use the SPF 50 but have to order online. Would you share the name of the Japanese shop in London? Might be worth a trip sometime and would love to know. Always enjoy your content Sam! Make up on an over 50 face would be amazing too if you ever have thew time 😊❤
Just because you felt the need to list so many cities, I have to mention, Los Angeles. All jokes aside. I decided to search your name to see if i could find any videos from you, at all. I was hoping a few maybe stuck somewhere in the ether of the internet, having not found your page with a previous search between one and two years ago. I am so glad to see you back here, I have always enjoyed how you do makeup.
I agree with other comments that your communication with your audience is brilliant. Helpful and informative, you always keep it real and I love that. You look fab btw 💕
Beautiful look, fresh, ageless and thoughtful. As always Sam has also the Gift of communicating incredibly well every step ❤🌟 👍 Thanks so much once again.
Hi Sam, I watched your videos years ago and here I am again. Just wanted to say that you age in a beautiful way and it’s nice to see you still rocking TH-cam. Best wishes x
You always manage to look so elegant and refined ❤ Yes, this is base perfection for 40/dry skin! My ideal base products are reminiscent of Mac F&B ….just sheer/light perfecting that wears well and doesn’t look makeup(y) or drier as the day goes on.
Here we are! I’ve been with you through Pixiwoo and About Face? I can’t remember exactly the name……..🤯 Raising kids. Career changes. Up times and down times. Now I’m navigating the changing terrain of my ageing face. And you’re there to guide me through. Thank fuck because I’m not coping so well with it all!!!
What a lovely sophisticated look! I purchased the Korean lash curler and I think I need a tutorial because I found it to be difficult to use. I know it should be self-explanatory but somehow it wasn’t for me.
Makeup looks amazing! I also do a natural look for work, but I skip the SPF as I work indoors. There is no need, and if you do find yourself going outside at times for work, SPF inactivates after about 2 hours. So it's really quite pointless unless you're exposed and can reapply throughout the day.
you look stunning sam. i can watch you apply makeup for days. such a big inspo! sorry to hear about the running around. hope to see you soon in another vid!
I love the way that you do your eyeshadow and often think of you while I'm doing my own. I've got to get that brush. I didn't even think about using a brush that big and I have a lot of real estate between the crease and my brows. thank you so much as always!
I just found your page!!! I find applying an eye primer or concealer on my lids give me a truer eyeshadow color, also I like to dry my waterline with a q-tip before add pencil to my waterline. It goes on better and stays on longer.
I have the same problem with SPF. The only one I can use is La Roche Posay Anthelios UVmune 400 50+ plus it soaks in and doesn’t sit on my face like grease. 🤢
I wonder if that spf would work for oily skin. I also have a big problem with spf irritating my eyes! I have to be really, really careful not to get it near my eyes.
Lovely look, one I’m definitely going to try. I once drove home from the salon with a shower cap on over the hair dye on my head 😂 My daughter had forgotten her key. I swear I was so embarrassed, I didn’t look right or left as I drove in broad daylight with a shower cap on my head! If looks could kill, my kiddo would have been a pile of ashes.
I have basically no brows… just a couple very short thin ones here & there… after more then 10 years of chemo so I always appreciate any brow tips, tricks!! It’s so easy for my brows to look like too much & I think that’s because I’m used to not having brows any more. I’m like Sam I like a very light base… I don’t want it to look like makeup but the brows can so easily through the whole thing off!! Thank goodness for brow pens!!!! Thanks for all the help you’ve given us over the years Sam!!!! Question: Do anyone have a preference in the eye brighteners? Nars vs Beauty Pie? Any thoughts would be really helpful!!!!
I love Sam, she is best OG make up artist. I love that she is focusing on us older ladies, her make up is so wearable & I just love her realness. She offers a wealth of information and I'm a complete fan girl.
Up at 5am in Michigan and so happy I landed here! Great way to start my day for this 49 year old!!!
Same here, Hi 👋🏼 from Michigan!!!
A little after 3:30 am in Seattle. Hi and good morning! 👋
I’m from MI too! But watching this as I’m getting ready for bed, lol.
Perfect look for us “over 40” kids! Thank you!
Perfect timing for some upcoming work travel! And now when I get ready for work I'm going to hear "London Professional Lady" in Sam's voice and it's going to make me giggle every time!

you're such an artist and a fantastic teacher at the same time!
Thank you x
My dream is you or Lisa Eldridge to do my makeup! Absolute legends! ❤
Mine too 😂
Chicago elegant professional lady! 🙌🏻🙌🏻
You know it!

Oh me too, Shanna.
What stupid idiotic boobs we were!
Come home from a hectic chaotic day at work and watching her videos…brings back life into the body…..!❤❤
So true! It's so beautiful and well explained. So classy
This is the type of makeup I would wear to do my groceries 🙂.
Always full face, especially for work when everything has to stay in place.
Thank you for this lovely look
This is the epitome of classy and naturally enhanced beauty makeup. I had no doubt it was a brilliant tutorial, even before starting the video. ❤
Thank you so much!!

Oh my gosh, yes, now that I'm well into my 40s my foundation gets very dry. Thank you for this video!❤️
I'm 30 and i love watching your videos.
Eu mi am tatuat sprancele......sunt superbe acum.... fffff frumos, f bine, arata ca naturale, am scapat de o grija si de timpul pierdut cu aranjatul lor zilnic..... Va sfatuiesc sa le TATUATI! ☺️♥️🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

Hello Sam, thank you for sharing this video with us, fantastic!!

Your my new fav make up artist ❤
I'm going to try my own version: Understated, Elegant, Truro, Professional Lady... (shout out to the small cities!!) 😎✌🏼💜
I had no idea Canmake was Shiseido - I've got one of their SPFs and it's really good.

❤❤❤❤Hello Sam! Beautiful!!! Loved that you remembered Lisbon!!!! Thank you ❤❤❤❤❤❤
You got such perfect skin....if I was to use only the CT Hollywood filter as a base i would see my pores from space 😂
Yes, we watch you here in Sydney Sam ❤
You always manage to look so elegant and refined ❤
Yes, this is base perfection for 40/dry skin! My ideal base products are reminiscent of Mac F&B ….just sheer/light perfecting that wears well and doesn’t look makeup(y) or drier as the day goes on.

You are just simply gorgeous….love your application method
Loved it! Learn so much about making up more mature face x
Glad you liked it!!
What a lovely sophisticated look! I purchased the Korean lash curler and I think I need a tutorial because I found it to be difficult to use. I know it should be self-explanatory but somehow it wasn’t for me.
Your videos are the best! 💕
Sam, have you tried Bodyography Glitter Pigments?? They're GORGEOUS.
Hope you have a wonderful day. X
❤we love understated make up and I live in a little town close to France but it still Italy!!❤️
Those sunglasses are fabulous! Where are they from, please? 😎
Makeup looks amazing! I also do a natural look for work, but I skip the SPF as I work indoors. There is no need, and if you do find yourself going outside at times for work, SPF inactivates after about 2 hours. So it's really quite pointless unless you're exposed and can reapply throughout the day.
Wow looking sharp! Btw, adore both lipsticks!
I love watching you and learning You are very beautiful!
Absolutely Elegant! Its Beautiful!
Loving this look!! 🥰
Love this look ❤
Please do an 80s glam punk look Sam 🙏 I've an 80s party to go to next month and need some inspiration 😊x
Always glad to see you, Sam.
you look stunning sam. i can watch you apply makeup for days. such a big inspo! sorry to hear about the running around. hope to see you soon in another vid!
Your eyebrow commentary was hilarious! I agree with you 💯 ❤

Another beautiful everyday look ☺️ love these videos Sam!! Please keep them coming!! Your tips always help ❤️
2 in the morning here in BC, 🇨🇦, where did you get the Japanese eye lash curler? Love the look!
You can find them on Amazon
Great video, random but what is the colour of your nail polish/gel please?
A lovely simple and classy look❤❤❤xx
You remain my favorite. Gorgeous. Hilarious.
Wow, thank you!
I love the way that you do your eyeshadow and often think of you while I'm doing my own. I've got to get that brush. I didn't even think about using a brush that big and I have a lot of real estate between the crease and my brows. thank you so much as always!

Yay! Thank you!
Where is your coat from? It's beautiful :)
Hi, I was wondering if you had a link to the Korean eyelash curlers you were using please? Thank you :)
Which brush are you using for your foundation? I love it!
Gorgeous!! And those sunglasses are fabulous! Who makes them??
Fendi
My favorite look 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I have the same problem with SPF. The only one I can use is La Roche Posay Anthelios UVmune 400 50+ plus it soaks in and doesn’t sit on my face like grease. 🤢
We actually hear you better without the mic on, voice is clearer. Gorgeus work !
Just gorgeous.
lovely look ❤
I wonder if that spf would work for oily skin. I also have a big problem with spf irritating my eyes!
I have to be really, really careful not to get it near my eyes.
Eucerin Oil Control is great
Hey Sam u can get non sting spf. La Roche Posay do one and also Ambre Solaire range for the face. I had same issue xx
You crack me up Sam. 😂. Looks great.
Lovely look, one I’m definitely going to try. I once drove home from the salon with a shower cap on over the hair dye on my head 😂 My daughter had forgotten her key. I swear I was so embarrassed, I didn’t look right or left as I drove in broad daylight with a shower cap on my head! If looks could kill, my kiddo would have been a pile of ashes.
Wow gorgeous nails and eyes. ❤ Mine are also grey blue and fair med - I love your tips x is CT foundation worth it and light serum coverage?
I have basically no brows… just a couple very short thin ones here & there… after more then 10 years of chemo so I always appreciate any brow tips, tricks!! It’s so easy for my brows to look like too much & I think that’s because I’m used to not having brows any more. I’m like Sam I like a very light base… I don’t want it to look like makeup but the brows can so easily through the whole thing off!! Thank goodness for brow pens!!!! Thanks for all the help you’ve given us over the years Sam!!!!
Question: Do anyone have a preference in the eye brighteners? Nars vs Beauty Pie? Any thoughts would be really helpful!!!!
Hi Sam! Laroche Posay Triple Moisturizing Cream is an EXCELLENT moisturizer for dry skin (face especially!)
Sam what are the little lash curlers you use please?
6:23 lol what a funny analogy
Multumesc frumos ❤
Love it
Very pretty makeup Sam
What base products can I substitute if I don't like foundation? I use concealers, and I love flawless filter but it is very sheer coverage.
Why am I cracking myself up at the cities part??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Sam u r so random yet so hilarious!! I Luv u 💋
That hair clip!!! Where can i find It? Super cool
Is It for big hair only?
GIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRRLLLLLLLL you looking so beautiful! You always were 😍 girl crushing hard
LOVE! 🤩 Curious if by any chance you’ve ever tried La Roche-Posay Hyalu B5 Aquagel SPF30? Katie Jane Hughes recommends it. Thanks! ❤️🙏
