No, don't change your content! I have unsubscribed from so many people because it was all so repetitive and insincere. You apologize for being private, but to be honest, you're the most relatable person that I watch. Keep doing what you're doing, and I'll keep watching!
Girlfriend, don't change a damn thing! YOU are a true influencer because you stay true to yourself and your genuinity is so apparent, it's a breath of fresh air! Your videos are a joy to watch!
Keep doing your OG videos. I honestly stopped watching other people's videos when they start to act fake. The reason I watch you is because you're funny and real. I can sit here and laugh while getting some ideas about which products to buy.
Kathleen, please don't worry about changing to "fit in". Sometimes the "old", "classic" and "vintage" ways are the best, and being different is what makes you special. My mum always said that it's better to be hated for what you are than loved for what you're not. Because it means that you'll really be appreciated by the people that love you for you. I'm 20, and you're my role model; you show me with every video that classic beauty and elegance is still loved by many (such as your millions of subscribers)! We all love you, so don't be afraid to stay the same 💖
Kathleen, please never succumb to the clickbait, over the top, snotty beauty trends. You are the classic, down to earth, quality content that the beauty side of TH-cam has lost. You are the only beauty TH-camr I can stand, so please keep the natural makeup tutorials, the chatty-get-readys, the hilarious commentary, and that bloopers reel at the end of every video (makes my day every time) 💙💙💙
Sarah Churchman I 100% agree! She's the only beauty channel I watch now! I feel like I can trust her and she's the only one who's not full of plastic! We love you Kathleen! Stay true to yourself
I love that in Kathleen's comment section everyone is always super nice, it's super rare to see hate or fights and stuff like that. It's really refreshing compared to other channels lol
please do NOT get with the times! your way of doing videos is classic & timeless. I am sick of the shock value and clickbait; yours are great & the looks you do are more achievable & more my style than what other BGs do.
KL, you are a beautiful, funny, quirky woman. I truly enjoy watching every one of your videos. You are an honest and open person and I appreciate that so much! I LOVE your "old school " videos styles. I wish more people would get back to the basics like that. You are actually my favorite beauty guru to watch on YT. You're calming, informative and your makeup looks are so great! Please don't ever change! Thank you for what you do and your genuine love for your subscribers!! XOXO
Kathleen...... GIRL...... This is exactly WHY so many people love you so much! Because you keep the videos real and makeup looks realistic. You don't do the whole "instagram thing" that most people don't want to recreate for the office or school. If you knew how many times I've seen subscribers compare another TH-camr to you in their comment section you would be shocked!! Most people look to you as someone who's going to give an honest, unsponsored opinion on a product. People feel they can trust you as a friend, and that's very important. A lot of people love what you're doing and love YOU FOR YOU! So don't change! xoxo
PLEASE DON'T EVER CHANGE! You are so genuine and down to earth, and I know so many of your subscribers appreciate your honesty and authenticity. Also, keep your private life private if that's what you want! We don't all need to know every detail of your life, just your opinions on makeup and beauty products:)
I enjoy the OG videos. No clickbait, no description box full of affiliate links (seriously though...they're a pain to browse through the items used), no sponsored videos... you're a beautiful breath of fresh air. **I come to you for the truth**. And your personality! 💞❤️🎉
I don't think sponsored videos are entirely awful. Girls gotta make her money somehow! I just hate when you can tell the product is crap or you can tell the TH-camr isn't into it at all.
Brice Byrd yes when Kathleen does sponsored videos she uses & the loves the brand regularly. She’s not a sell out like so many of these youtubers. & I’m sure she is making quite a large amount of money since her following & views have grown, KL polish etc but she’s still just as sweet & humble as her start on TH-cam
+Liz Pena So true, one of her first videos I ever watched was her speaking about her anxiety, and I was so touched by her transparency, she quickly became my favorite and after years on TH-cam, she still remains humble and genuine ...such a rare gem #oldskoolsoul
The thing that keeps me coming back to your channel is your PERSONALITY! For that reason lip swatch videos aren't my fave, but only cos there isn't much chatting and hanging out with you. Maybe if you did like a chatty lip swatch where you just talked us through the colours as you tried them on (rather than just showing swatches of one colour after the other?) Your personality is just so lovely and my fave videos are the ones where your energy and enthusiasm and humour and bubbliness really shine through! But tbh I watch every single one of your videos anyway. Love you Kathleen xxx
I'm so glad you addressed this because I honest don't like the direction the beauty community is going on YT. It seems like everyone is more concerned with being "booshie", being in the drama, and thinking up lame clickbait titles. You're honestly the only one I absolutely trust and respect for staying true to yourself. Please always stick to being your genuine you because this is what we as your subscribers love!! Btw, you're amazing!!
Stacey vs. the world I agree. Its almost so competitive and more materialistic. It seems to consume so many gurus into this unimaginable world that the average person can't achieve. Its like theure tainted.
With 3 MILLION followers, I don't think you need to worry that you're doing something wrong... I found your channel through unboxing comparisons and love them! I love brand reviews, favorites, first impressions and hauls that have updates as well. Do what you love and people will be compelled to watch because people are drawn to people when they're passionate.
I had to pause the video just to say.. KATHLEEN DON'T EVER CHANGEEE!!!!!!!! That is the main reason I watch your videos, because you have your own style and you are not a copy of the mass and the trends, it's just so good and relaxing to have a breather from that typical 'perfected, contoured, chiselled' look that is all over the beauty community. We love your personality, humour, and your own style. You can make a video about anything and we will still watch it, you are the only youtuber I continuously watch due to your transparency and honest attitude! Be yourself, that is what sets you apart!
I never really comment, but I felt it was important to say that I don't think you should change. You're my favorite beauty guru for a reason! I love how you stick to your personality and how you are!
Agreed. I have been watching you since before you had 100,000 subscribers and it is so nice that over these past years i can still count on you to make me laugh and to give me quality unbiased opinions.
I honestly love how "old school" you are. I'm so glad you don't feel the need to clickbait or any of that nonsense. I click on your videos the second I see them no matter what they are, because they never disappoint! And personally, I love when you're chatty in your videos - they're my favourite!! You're just so genuine, it's refreshing.
Kathleen, there's NOTHING WRONG w/liking OG TH-cam or not caring for the changes you're experiencing here (or anywhere). Sweetie you are who you are & you like or dislike what you do! That's what makes you Kathleen. Only you are the right person to decide if these traits should be different in you! You have a lot of people who love these things about you - you're accepted my dear & we love you!
Allyson Sixx of course they care .... she reaches thousands of people for them in return saving Tatcha big $$$ in marketing/advertising .... so now, they can charge us an arm and a leg!!
I'm subscribed to at least 10 beauty gurus, and I'm not kidding when I say you are my absolute favorite! You aren't a clone (Cartier wearing, false lash wearing, Gucci bag wearing, lip filler having, brag about your wealth type of clone) you are so genuine and you are honestly the best. There, I said it. Kathleen lights is the BEST there is on TH-cam if you want just a beautiful person (inside and out) talking about makeup! I love you Kathleen, please don't change ❤️
We love that you're not doing ridiculous trendy clickbait videos! And totally respect your privacy--it's going to preserve your real life and hopefully actually help you stick around longer on TH-cam. As far as requests--maybe your top 3 fave looks that don't require falsies? XOXO, Jaclyn
Please don't ever feel like you need to change! The fact that you don't use click bait titles and post extreme videos is why I love you. You're always so genuine, you have an amazing personality and always let that shine through. Old school beauty blogs are the best so keep doing what you're doing. Love your random rambles, chatty videos AND your normal beauty videos. Do lip swatches if it makes you happy! Most of your subscribers watch you for your personality, not only for your content so just keep being you. x
Kathleen, I'm more than twice your age so please take me seriously. DO NOT change. Your videos are perfect as is. When I see a new posting I get excited to watch. You can never do anyone better than being yourself. You are charming. You do the best lip swatches of anyone I have seen on TH-cam. That said, I would enjoy more of your stories in 'Kat Chat' sessions. They are so funny.
You know what Kat, someone out there is on the fence about buying a Marc Jacobs lip product and wishes that there was a humble person who can honestly put out a quality video with it. If anyone should do it, it should be you. I love every single video you make because of who you are!
DO NOT CHANGE, PLEASE. You are so special and one of a kind and thats exactly why you're one my of favorite youtubers. A lot of youtubers are so basic and all try to be like one another but you're different in the best possible way. I always think to myself how cool it would be to be your friend in real life. please never change!! We need more people like you in this world Kathleen so much love, from a fan in NYC
I 110% prefer your video style over those clickbait videos, when you pop up in my subscriptions I instantly click the video, whereas clickbait videos I sometimes don't even bother watching. I just enjoy your energy and feel more connected to you, because you are genuine and you post the videos YOU enjoy and not what you think will get the most views. I'm the same as you and enjoy the old school beauty videos because they're what made me fall in love with youtube, so please never change!
No Kathleen, definitely keep your videos the same. This is your channel, so you can do videos that YOU WANT to do. And if you're thinking that you need to change to fit the status quo, don't think that. The reason you have all of the subscribers you do is because we enjoy you and the videos that you like to make. You are one of my favourite beauty gurus because you are so real and genuine and og. And girl you post those lip swatch videos if you want! I wanna see them! Don't ever let the pressure of others stop you from doing what you love to do. Good luck to you girl!
Honestly I love your classic content. I do wish you still did Days of Our Lights because I did enjoy those but it's very understandable that you just don't really wanna share everything in your life!! I love your old school ways please don't change it. I'm so sick of this new "wow factor" clickbait-y videos like you mentioned, and everyone seems to own a studio where they film. I just love the laid back, recording in my room/house kind of deal. It's something many people can relate to and I just hope that you see that and do stick with your regular content. You don't need to change for nothing or nobody!!
you're not a clone, imo you give off the most genuine vibes. I love that you don't claim to be a MUA or that you don't wear strip lashes. It really speaks to me and makes me feel better about a TRUE natural look.
Please don't change your content! I have unsubscribed from so many beauty youtubers because they changed and went for all those trendy videos and clickbait titles. Drives me nuts! But I love your genuine personality and talent, and I have watched every single video of yours since I subscribed a few years ago. Keep it up, beautiful!
Same. I've stopped watching or unsubscribed from many of the beauty channels, but I always watch you, Kathleen. But, if there are videos you want to try out, I say go for it and see how the response is. Personally, I hate story time videos because they seem to all be fake, OMG!SUCH SCARY videos because again, fake and often used by lazy people without any good ideas--just this one girl's opinion so....but I still love the classic TH-cam beauty style videos. I want to know which products are good, ya know? I'm someone who is always looking for healthier things for my face and body that actually work, so I'd love to see videos like that, maybe? You've built a lot of trust with me over the years and I still trust your opinion and there not many I can say that about left these days. I like the funny tag videos still, or swatch videos of products in a lines' range (like the lipstick one you mentioned) and I'm always game for tutorials! Have a good day, girl. I wanted to give you a hug when you were talking about changes and flying and such. I'm the same about changes and flying too, and I've been forced to change my life recently because of cancer, and it's so hard to switch lanes but breathing exercises for real work. When my mind is going totally crazy at night with what ifs, I breathe in and out real calmly and count backwards from 200, and it helps shut my mind down so I can get some rest. Maybe it will help you too!
I don't want you to change, I love that you still film in your room, with no camera filter, no fancy backdrops (i feel I relate more when people just have their room as a background) , no over the top oversized lips 😒 I mean I don't wanna seem rude but I feel like more than half of the Beauty side of TH-cam does that.. and like you said I also feel it's a little clone-like.
paloma diaz I feel like filters completely ruin the purpose of beauty videos. If you're trying to cover scars or something, we need to be able to see it before and after in order to see the product's performance!
paloma diaz Yes! Or when the brightness is up WAY too high in a video... like girl what's the point in showing how a foundation works if we can't see what your skin actually looks like?!
Please don't stop with your chatty videos I think these are the ones why we all love you and have subscribed to you! Also I'd love to see more hair / skin / body care type of videos :)
Valentina yes we would love some more lifestyle videos along with your usual videos and I know I don't watch your vids just for your content but also because I really love your personality
I'm sure a thousand people have already said this, but it's because of your real and genuine personality that people keep watching your videos. You could literally be sitting there in the grubbiest clothes and rambling (oh wait, you already did that) and I would sit through the whole thing. I love that you're always thinking about what your subscribers want to see, but all we really want is you. You're fabulous and I hope you never forget it
No, please don't "get with the times". You are one of the few beauty gurus I can tolerate now. Everyone is starting to look and talk the same and it's really annoying but you're someone who I feel hasn't succumbed to that. You still seem like yourself and your videos don't feel like a commercial and I really really appreciate that. I know you said you feel like videos that aren't click bait/extreme "struggle" but just because a video isn't getting 500,000+ views doesn't mean it's doing poorly. There are a ton of different niches on TH-cam, such as people who enjoy what you call "old school" youtube makeup videos, and judging from your comment section and your view count, a lot of people really enjoy your content. You make great videos and you should make the kind of videos you want to make regardless of what the majority of the beauty community here on youtube is doing
Reyna Lute amen girl. Couldn't have said it better myself!!! Also, there is so much love on Kathleen's channel and her followers. You get the bad eggs once in a while but I love that most of us are always supportive and building each other up! Cheers ♥️
I wish I could do more than liking this comment because is sooooo true. Most of us feel the same and are proud of you Kathleen. ♡ We love you and your content. But please feel free to "update" it if you want as long as you feel that it goes with your personality and beliefs. You're one of the great TH-camrs that are worth watching. Please remember that 👌
Please don't change your video style because I love your content so much, especially since you're happy with your videos as well. You are not only in general one of my favorite youtubers but more specifically, you're my absolute favorite beauty guru. I hope you continue to post the content you're happy with. xx
We watch you for the way you are. Please don't change. Your channel is great and you are one of my favorites to watch. There's almost no drama in the comments section like other people and I love that.
I don't even like to watch videos with click bait titles because I find them to be so annoying and over dramatic. You are my favorite TH-camr because of how genuine you are! Don't feel like you have to change to be like everyone else. I like you because you are different. ❤️
Totally agree with you on how the beauty community has changed so much! I love all of the old school beauty videos too & I love that you stay true to you! ❤️
PLEASEEEEEEEEEE stay 'old school' kathleen! i love your unboxing videos, lip swatches, crazy bright makeup tutorials that fill me with envy and make me hunt for a reason to wear them, and giiiiiiiirl i live for chatty get ready videos. i watch you because i enjoy seeing your personality come through the camera and your life happening in the background while your dogs growl or construction is going on. it makes you seem so much more real and relatable!! I've spent hours just watching your videos because they are just you doing what you love. and your dedication to posting 3 times a week is definitely noticed and appreciated!! so, the moral of the story is.... you rock, don't ever change! 😋😍
Kayla Ross-Carr Agreed! Similarly with the background noice I love that she doesn't have a plain backdrop, I love that she just has her room in the background. To me it makes it so much more relaxed and less looking like a commercial. X
Nonono do not change please Kathleen. Your channel is my favourite TH-cam channel because of how genuine and un-clickbatey your videos are. You described it perfectly by saying everyone is just a clone of each other, trying to copy each others videos to get views and to stay relevant, and I really don't like that. I love your videos, not just because you have stayed true to the old school beauty videos but also because I love your personality, and it hasn't changed as the trends have changed. A lot of people I used to love have changed the way they act in their videos to seem more trendy and I don't know, just changed as their video styles have, but I'm glad you are the ones who haven't. I wish I could find more genuine channels to watch like you!
Everything that you post is gonna get millions of views from us whether it be a lip swatch or you just sitting in front of the camera and not talking at all. I and we all love you Kathleen You are the most humble and modest person that I know. Thank you for being that way even if you are one of the best and most successful you tuber. Love You
Please don't change your style Kathleen! It's just like you said, you don't have to be a clone. I truly look forward your videos THE MOST because you keep it real, you don't use studio-like backdrop and make us watch using a clickbait titles. You give us real life advice and I think many other beauty gurus have slowly been drifting a way from that. And still, through all these changes in TH-cam, you're literally my number 1 favorite beauty guru. Personally, I think this change towards shock and clickbait is not permanent, this is just a phase and soon people are either changing their style back to the "old" days or finding something new. But the shock factor is not there forever, in some point there's no shock for anything anymore because we've already seen it all. People are already getting tired to be "fooled" to watch videos. And then the channels who rely on that are screwed. If you still feel like you have to update something on your channel, I would maybe do that by changing the background a little bit or just the video style. For example trying out more blurry background or something like that. You mentioned going to a course to learn stuff about cameras and editing and I think that would truly be a great idea!! You can make such a big difference by only changing that kinda stuff a little bit. But when it comes to your content, I truly hope you don't feel the need to change because there will always be people who like this style more and are fed up with the new styles that are drifting from the reality and not actually giving us any helpful advice. (Wow this was supposed to be way shorter 😅😂 But I love you Kathleen!! xo)
Kathleen it's madness that you think people wouldn't like the fact that you stay under the category of an 'OG' youtuber - IT'S WHY WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH! And probably why you have been doing so well for yourself as well. Many TH-camrs seem to live in another universe where they think the 'shock factor' and 'click bait' and everything you mentioned is what subscribers want, but most of the time it really isn't. You should be so proud of yourself and this is just one of the reasons why love you as much as we do! ❤️
P.s. For this reason I am only subscribed to you and Alison Henry out of the beauty community. You two are so genuine and true to yourselves and it's just wonderful
DON'T CHANGE KATHLEEN! Ever since I subscribed to you, I knew why many people love you, so don't change for us, please. A lot of people really love old school beauty videos - not that old school are ever a bad thing - that are not click bait, very honest and perfectly imperfect. You don't have to fake it till you make it. Again, I stress this part "beauty videos like Kathleen's are the best ones, the OG ones and I hope many of the famous beauty influencers return back to the original beauty videos". WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!
Just paused the video to say that one of the reasons I love your videos is because you have remained yourself the whole time. You don't try to do what everyone else is doing and I love that. I love the "old-school" videos and videos where you ramble so please don't apologize for them and definitely don't stop making them.
Kathleen, you shouldn't ever feel like what you do is too "old school" or not interesting enough because it just isn't true! Your personality and the energy you show in your videos is what got me to subscribe 3 years ago and your kindness hasn't changed a bit since then! Most beauty gurus today are NOTHING like how they were a few years back, character wise. All I'm trying to say is that thank you, truly for being just so real and genuine, and not becoming another carbon copy youtuber who does beauty/lifestyle videos 💕
Kathleen - you are one of the few TH-camrs who review all price ranges of makeup/skincare and are genuine about it. Keep doing you, that's why we love you so much! I'd personally love a lip gloss swatch video!! They're fun and I've been dying to see how this MJ glosses are 😊
Watching some older videos those days and man... You're still the same (but better, you know !) and I think that's why I'm still watching your videos. You're down to earth and genuine, drama-free... Honestly, I've been watching your videos for years now and I'm glad you're still around. Wishing you the best. 😘
Please dont change!!! I personally have lost so much love for the beauty community. I feel like you are one of the only influencers that is still real.
Kathleen, you do you. Whatever videos you create, I am here to watch. I know for me, I watch these videos for YOU, whatever they end up being. Its like your my friend that I get to talk to a few times a week. Don't stress about what videos you create, because I know I am not the only one that supports you no matter what❤️
Sometimes I just need a break from the 'new' beauty community that is full of click bait and fake news, so I come to Kathleen's channel to get away and chill out from every other beauty guru because she is old school and different in a good way. I love Kathleen's videos and how original yet old school they are, she edits them so perfectly and I just love everything about her channel ❤❤
Emily Davidson I agree so much. There's so much drama and controversy everywhere else, and she keeps it so honest and real. It kills me to think that she would be worried about not conforming since that's the reason I love her content
Don't worry about the trend the rest of TH-cam is taking. So many people are so consumed with the "fame" of TH-cam and not giving true opinions because they want to go on expensive holidays with brands. You are hands down my favourite youtuber because you're not like that. You do you and continue to do what you love! We'll keep watching cause we love you and how real you are (and that you're hilarious)!!
Please STOP saying you are sorry!! You have every right to do whatever YOU feel is right. This is YOUR channel. If you spend your life worrying about "disappointing" people, you will never enjoy success. Your subscribers love you for who you are - don't second-guess that.
Kathleen, yes to the lip swatch video! I personally find them super helpful, especially when I'm thinking about purchasing, because the online colors/swatches often aren't very true to color. I'll watch whatever you put out because I love your personality and find your videos relaxing and refreshing! 😚💖
These are my favorite videos. Sitting down doing your hair, popping a face mask on and you having a real conversation. I just love this. Please don't change 😘 Recommended videos- updated morning/nighttime routine and vlogs! ❤️
omg kathleen please don't ever change your video style! Your channel is makes everyone feel at home. With your chatty videos and series incorporated into your beauty videos your subscribers feel like they are your friend! we love you so much. Love your story times and makeup tutorials. Keep being you!!
Please don't ever change! I know change is inevitable but honestly I used to love so many youtubers and I find myself only trusting your opinion now because of how real and "old school" you are! I love how you are! You're different and I can tell you don't post the same videos everyone else does. I still do watch and enjoy other Beauty Influencers but your opinion is the only one I feel is pure
Stay the same. This is what I appreciate about you and certain other beauty gurus in Florida. They specifically said this too in one of their chit chat videos too. You guys seem so real and down to earth
Do not change!!! please hear us when we say the we crave the old school TH-cam just as much or more than you do. One of the biggest reasons we all love you is because you are genuine. You do you boo
Kathleen's you're the only beauty TH-camr (that I follow) who hasn't gotten lip injections, veneers, microblading, eyelash extensions, all that jazz that everyone else does. Hell, you don't even contour the crap out of your face to change it. Not that I'm against any of that but it's just SO refreshing to see and you are so stunning naturally. It's just so nice to see a nice natural beauty who doesn't give into all that stuff!! ❤️❤️❤️
- Tbh, clickbait videos may get clicked on the most, but I bet if you looked at the stats, most of those views only last about 30 seconds before the viewer gets bored and clicks off. The original style of youtube videos with the makeup collections, the swatches, the favourites etc will always be my favourite because they're the reason I started watching youtube, they're what got me into makeup in the first place, and they're not only enjoyable but also helpful. You enjoy making them, sooo many more people enjoy watching them than you think, and if you change your style of video to ''fit in'' then you're not being true to yourself and yeah you might get a few more views but do the numbers really count if those views aren't from people who genuinely want to watch you? Keep doing what you're doing, because a lot more people love it than you think x
Kathleen, this is WHY you're my favorite person on TH-cam. You don't fall prey to the BS that seems to happen among other beauty influencers and you always are 100% real. I actually feel like you could be my gal pal, while the others just feel kinda fake. No shade to them, I enjoy their videos... but you are honestly my absolute favorite. My favorites are always your unboxing videos, and your tutorials. I learned a cut-crease from you! Keep up the amazing work, you're the best!
Kathleen don't ever change! It was nice to see this chit chat vlog style video but nothing's better than waking up in the morning and seeing that you already uploaded your unboxing video or drugstore hauls. You're so consistent and so unique to this TH-cam community that there's never a doubt in my mind wether or not I should click on your videos. You're amazing and we all love you ❤️❤️❤️
I stopped this video, like 1 minute in just to say, she is perfect. I love her so much because she is herself and nobody else. That's what makes her, her. She's my favorite on TH-cam because she doesn't just do what everybody else is doing - just for views. You're so sweet and kind and genuine. That's so rare on TH-cam anymore. It's become more about views and cliques than being personal. I love your random rambles and katchats. Thank you for being you ❤
Kathleen. Earlier today, I went through all my subscriptions and and unsubscribed to about 70% of channels I was previously subscribed to. You made the cut. You know why? Because I love your content. Stay like this. I love it when you do you, because I love YOU. And I love you, because you are you! You're real. Thats why I love your videos.
Can I just say I love you and your videos. PLEASE do not "get with the times" I love the videos you post. I look forward to them more than you will ever know. I love that you have your privacy and your life away from the camera. I love your pace here on youtube. Please don't change.
I LOVE the old school TH-cam videos like what's in my bag, good ole hauls, favorites, tag videos, & I love lip swatch videos!!! Those are the kinds of videos I started watching & there's nothing I love more than when a TH-camr just talks & is relatable and real and it makes me feel like we're girlfriends chatting about makeup. That's why I started watching TH-cam! And I learned how to do a lot of my makeup by chatty get readies and tutorials. I LOVE you Kathleen!! 😘😘😘
omg girl no, please don't change anything about your channel. I love how different you are from other youtuber. I love the OG video even if they don't get much videos. Your loyal fans will still be here!!! PS: please bring back at least a couple vlogs and PLEASE DO SUMMER BODY CARE VIDEO POR FAVOR xoxo Vanesa
You're old school but that's what makes you unique. A breath of fresh air whenever I watch your videos! Keep doing TH-cam the way you're doing it and enjoy it. I absolutely love your character and I love your videos! 😍
Affordable hair and face masks. Morning routine. Series for begginers. Things that you love, not make up but for example a whole video dedicated to things that makes you happy
SERIES FOR BEGINNERS. Always buy foundation but never use it because I never know how to blend. You could do a picking out the right foundation video along side that.
Oh man. I recently found you here on TH-cam when I was looking for videos to watch while I'm feeding my rescue stray cat. She's very sick and has to be fed through a feeding tube so I'm stuck in the bathroom for about twenty minutes feeding her with nothing to do. I have SO been enjoying your personality and just you being you. You are a breath of fresh air from the TH-cam beauty community. I'm a 33 year old mother of three and I find a lot of the beauty gurus to be not my fave. You are so genuine and basically awesome. Keep doing you. You're a diamond in the rough. And thank you for sharing your struggles. It helps people to know they're not alone. Best wishes.
KATHLEEN I REALLY HOPE YOU SEE THIS BUT NEVER CHANGE YOURSELF TO ACCOMMODATE TO TH-camS CHANGES. I LOVE your videos as they are and I watch you BECAUSE YOU HAVE NEVER CHANGED. I see all these youtubers let "the fame get to their head". I can see that you haven't changed in 4 years. I literally created a TH-cam account just so I could subscribe to you. Truly the only youtuber that I always come back to. Also you are just brutally honest with every product you try and I trust your opinions and recommendations. Also I love videos like this. It feels like we're literally just sitting talking.
Thanks for staying old school and staying true to yourself Kathleen!! Here's a video idea for you; cruelty free dupes. I know you have a HUGE makeup collection and I would love you to search through it and find dupes for popular non cruelty free makeup. I know not everyone is cruelty free when it comes to cosmetics, but I would really enjoy that kind of video. Thanks for being you. Much love ❤
There's a reason why I'm subscribed to you and not to the crazy click bait tubers (I mean no shade to them whatever works but its not my cup o tea). Love your style and love your content, I trust your recommendations because I feel like you truely like the products and not because of financial gain.
No!! We love you the way you are Kathleen. Please don't change ❤️ you're one of the few people that I watch just bc of how TRUE and genuine you are. You and your channel are perfect!!
You're my favourite beauty youtuber because you're so real, and I can tell that you're not in it for fame, attention or money. You're successful for all the right reasons! I can see your passion and personality and I love how genuine you are! Don't feel the need to change just because TH-cam is changing ❤️
There's a TH-camr BeautywithEmilyFox that does these like throwback favorites. She'll go back on camera and watch her oldest monthly favourites and then go through each product and say if she likes it again. It's really helpful since it'll let people know if it really did work or if you just bought it and used it for the hype. Hope that helps 😄 Keep doing you Kathleen, I love your videos and especially tutorials, you are one of the few that I follow that actually does tutorials still.
Please stay the way you are!! I love watching your random videos, makeup tutorials, basically anything you post! You are one of the only youtubers that has remained genuine and humble!!
Kathleen, my sister and I have been watching you for years now and just absolutely love how you're "oldschool" and so real with everyone. We both know from experience how anxiety can affect a person. I want to share with you a few things that may help your anxiety. My mom struggled with bad anxiety and anxiety attacks for 8 years straight. Most nights she wouldn't sleep because she was afraid that she, my dad, my sister, or I would stop breathing and suddenly die in our sleep. This is how bad it was for all those years. She would go to work and occasionally have to excuse herself from a meeting to go to the bathroom where she would cry and almost hyperventilate while saying, "God please just get me through the day. I have a great job, a loving husband, a beautiful home, and healthy children; why do I feel this way"? We all went to church together as a family every Sunday morning and one particular Sunday the Pastor ended the service asking if anyone struggling with anxiety would come up for prayer. That day my mom said in her mind that she wasn't going to accept the anxiety anymore and that she needed to give it to God because she couldn't get rid of it on her own. She then RAN (yes ran) to the stage for prayer and before the Pastor had even gotten to her for prayer she was crying and in her mind begging God to take the anxiety and fear from her. At this point she saw in her mind her heart and it had the word "FEAR" written across it and a hand with an eraser that came and erased those words slowly from her heart. From that point on she hasn't had an anxiety attack. She kept declaring that she wasn't going to claim that fear or anxiety anymore. My mom has been free for about 10 years. It may be unconventional or old school, but I believe God gives us testimonies to help other people overcome the difficulties that come with life. I just wanted to encourage you that God wants to heal you from your anxiety and He wants to have a relationship with you. Philippians 4:6 says, "Don't fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praise shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God's wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It's wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life." I'm not an expert in anxiety, but what I know to be true is that God works. I just think..why not try it? Love you Kathleen.
I love these types of videos!!! Especially bc you are so private about your life (which I totally respect and think is a great choice) these chit chat videos allow us to kinda get to know you more and just feel like we're hanging out. Love you Kathleen!!! Don't ever change, do you boo! 😊❤
Kathleen you are the most down to earth beauty TH-camr. I'm subscribed to a couple of gurus but a lot of the times I don't watch their videos, but I always stop whatever I'm doing to watch your recent uploads! Your channel is so much more REAL (no offense to others) but it is refreshing to watch someone "like me". I'm not trying to call out other makeup TH-camrs as fake, but your channel is so refreshing. Continue to make the videos that make YOU happy! You will always have people who will want to watch your videos, but I understand wanting to make your subscribers happy. Do what you want to do and your supporters will be happy! (Also P.S I love this chatty/vlog style type of video! I would love if you would post more of them!). Love you ❤️
I love your videos, Kathleen, don't ever change!! I just miss your lip swatches (what got me to watch you in the beginning). I would love for when you do first impressions to come back to the video at the end for an update but that's it. Keep doing you and don't change into basic beauty gurus. Here's a secret: a majority of people don't really like them cuz they all became click bait and over the top except for their own fans. And they get CONSTANTLY made fun of by other channels. I love NOT seeing you in drama channels so you're good! We love you for you! ❤️❤️
Kathleen never change! I love your content and how it's old school as opposed to other you tubers that are so extra I love anything you post bc your so passionate about it xoxo keep doing your thing we all love you for that reason
Kathleen is my favourite youtuber exactly because she is not the same plastic moulded beauty guru that films the same videos over and over. I have watched every single video she has filmed since I found her about 2 and a half years ago. I love her for who she is - an amazing, creative and interesting young woman making her mark in the youtube and beauty community.

No, don't change your content! I have unsubscribed from so many people because it was all so repetitive and insincere. You apologize for being private, but to be honest, you're the most relatable person that I watch. Keep doing what you're doing, and I'll keep watching!
Girlfriend, don't change a damn thing! YOU are a true influencer because you stay true to yourself and your genuinity is so apparent, it's a breath of fresh air! Your videos are a joy to watch!
I actually prefer the channels that aren't all about clickbait. You, Katy, Desi, and Jaclyn are my go to channels.
McKinlay Dennis yaaaassss! Queens!
Saaaame
Keep doing your OG videos. I honestly stopped watching other people's videos when they start to act fake. The reason I watch you is because you're funny and real. I can sit here and laugh while getting some ideas about which products to buy.
Aisha Breaux sorry.. what does og mean.. kathy keeps using it but i dont understand
@@thejam7925 original
Kathleen, please don't worry about changing to "fit in". Sometimes the "old", "classic" and "vintage" ways are the best, and being different is what makes you special.
My mum always said that it's better to be hated for what you are than loved for what you're not. Because it means that you'll really be appreciated by the people that love you for you.
I'm 20, and you're my role model; you show me with every video that classic beauty and elegance is still loved by many (such as your millions of subscribers)!
We all love you, so don't be afraid to stay the same 💖
Kathleen, please never succumb to the clickbait, over the top, snotty beauty trends. You are the classic, down to earth, quality content that the beauty side of TH-cam has lost. You are the only beauty TH-camr I can stand, so please keep the natural makeup tutorials, the chatty-get-readys, the hilarious commentary, and that bloopers reel at the end of every video (makes my day every time) 💙💙💙
Sarah Churchman well said and you took the words right out of my mouth.
Sarah Churchman I 100% agree! She's the only beauty channel I watch now! I feel like I can trust her and she's the only one who's not full of plastic! We love you Kathleen! Stay true to yourself
Sarah Churchman yes!! That's all I had to say... but I agree 100%
i 100% agree with you
💛💛💛
I love that in Kathleen's comment section everyone is always super nice, it's super rare to see hate or fights and stuff like that. It's really refreshing compared to other channels lol
please do NOT get with the times! your way of doing videos is classic & timeless. I am sick of the shock value and clickbait; yours are great & the looks you do are more achievable & more my style than what other BGs do.
KL, you are a beautiful, funny, quirky woman. I truly enjoy watching every one of your videos. You are an honest and open person and I appreciate that so much! I LOVE your "old school " videos styles. I wish more people would get back to the basics like that. You are actually my favorite beauty guru to watch on YT. You're calming, informative and your makeup looks are so great! Please don't ever change! Thank you for what you do and your genuine love for your subscribers!! XOXO
is that your natural hair color? if its not what color you use 😊
Kathleen...... GIRL...... This is exactly WHY so many people love you so much! Because you keep the videos real and makeup looks realistic. You don't do the whole "instagram thing" that most people don't want to recreate for the office or school. If you knew how many times I've seen subscribers compare another TH-camr to you in their comment section you would be shocked!! Most people look to you as someone who's going to give an honest, unsponsored opinion on a product. People feel they can trust you as a friend, and that's very important. A lot of people love what you're doing and love YOU FOR YOU! So don't change! xoxo
What Christine said. Be YOU!
Totally agree. We love you for who you are Kathleen
Kathleen stop apologizing for being chatty. It's the reason we all love you!!hehe 🤗❤️
PLEASE DON'T EVER CHANGE! You are so genuine and down to earth, and I know so many of your subscribers appreciate your honesty and authenticity. Also, keep your private life private if that's what you want! We don't all need to know every detail of your life, just your opinions on makeup and beauty products:)
I enjoy the OG videos. No clickbait, no description box full of affiliate links (seriously though...they're a pain to browse through the items used), no sponsored videos... you're a beautiful breath of fresh air.
**I come to you for the truth**.
And your personality! 💞❤️🎉
I don't think sponsored videos are entirely awful. Girls gotta make her money somehow! I just hate when you can tell the product is crap or you can tell the TH-camr isn't into it at all.
Brice Byrd yes when Kathleen does sponsored videos she uses & the loves the brand regularly. She’s not a sell out like so many of these youtubers. & I’m sure she is making quite a large amount of money since her following & views have grown, KL polish etc but she’s still just as sweet & humble as her start on TH-cam
+Liz Pena So true, one of her first videos I ever watched was her speaking about her anxiety, and I was so touched by her transparency, she quickly became my favorite and after years on TH-cam, she still remains humble and genuine ...such a rare gem #oldskoolsoul
The thing that keeps me coming back to your channel is your PERSONALITY! For that reason lip swatch videos aren't my fave, but only cos there isn't much chatting and hanging out with you. Maybe if you did like a chatty lip swatch where you just talked us through the colours as you tried them on (rather than just showing swatches of one colour after the other?) Your personality is just so lovely and my fave videos are the ones where your energy and enthusiasm and humour and bubbliness really shine through! But tbh I watch every single one of your videos anyway. Love you Kathleen xxx
Alicia Tan same
I completely 100000% agree
I totally agree!! Love your personality Kathleen
Alicia Tan absolutely! At this point everyone can do a basic makeup look, but we come back for the youtuber and their personality.
I'm so glad you addressed this because I honest don't like the direction the beauty community is going on YT. It seems like everyone is more concerned with being "booshie", being in the drama, and thinking up lame clickbait titles. You're honestly the only one I absolutely trust and respect for staying true to yourself. Please always stick to being your genuine you because this is what we as your subscribers love!! Btw, you're amazing!!
Stacey vs. the world I agree. Its almost so competitive and more materialistic. It seems to consume so many gurus into this unimaginable world that the average person can't achieve. Its like theure tainted.
Boujie?
They're*
With 3 MILLION followers, I don't think you need to worry that you're doing something wrong... I found your channel through unboxing comparisons and love them! I love brand reviews, favorites, first impressions and hauls that have updates as well. Do what you love and people will be compelled to watch because people are drawn to people when they're passionate.
I had to pause the video just to say.. KATHLEEN DON'T EVER CHANGEEE!!!!!!!! That is the main reason I watch your videos, because you have your own style and you are not a copy of the mass and the trends, it's just so good and relaxing to have a breather from that typical 'perfected, contoured, chiselled' look that is all over the beauty community. We love your personality, humour, and your own style. You can make a video about anything and we will still watch it, you are the only youtuber I continuously watch due to your transparency and honest attitude! Be yourself, that is what sets you apart!
OMG!!! This comment speaks to me like it's my life. I 100% agree on this.
I agree!! I know you say you like to keep some stuff personal but vlogs would be awesome!
yes I totally agree!! kathleen i want you to stay true to your self!!
I never really comment, but I felt it was important to say that I don't think you should change. You're my favorite beauty guru for a reason! I love how you stick to your personality and how you are!
Agreed. I have been watching you since before you had 100,000 subscribers and it is so nice that over these past years i can still count on you to make me laugh and to give me quality unbiased opinions.
I honestly love how "old school" you are. I'm so glad you don't feel the need to clickbait or any of that nonsense. I click on your videos the second I see them no matter what they are, because they never disappoint! And personally, I love when you're chatty in your videos - they're my favourite!! You're just so genuine, it's refreshing.
I honestly like that your old school it's what I like to watch keep it up!!!
Am I the only one who is about to cry reading all the comments? This is such a nice place 😢❤️
i know I love it!!
Anna Kawamura yeah, I can feel the love ❤❤
Anna Kawamura This is my happy place 💓
Kathleen, there's NOTHING WRONG w/liking OG TH-cam or not caring for the changes you're experiencing here (or anywhere).
Sweetie you are who you are & you like or dislike what you do! That's what makes you Kathleen. Only you are the right person to decide if these traits should be different in you! You have a lot of people who love these things about you - you're accepted my dear & we love you!
We love you Kathleen! It's an honor to be caring for your skin
Tatcha
Love that you care enough to comment here!
Very thoughtful 💜💚
Allyson Sixx of course they care .... she reaches thousands of people for them in return saving Tatcha big $$$ in marketing/advertising .... so now, they can charge us an arm and a leg!!
J Angelle don’t be so negative. 👎🏻
I'm subscribed to at least 10 beauty gurus, and I'm not kidding when I say you are my absolute favorite! You aren't a clone (Cartier wearing, false lash wearing, Gucci bag wearing, lip filler having, brag about your wealth type of clone) you are so genuine and you are honestly the best. There, I said it. Kathleen lights is the BEST there is on TH-cam if you want just a beautiful person (inside and out) talking about makeup! I love you Kathleen, please don't change ❤️
Nadine Ahmad could not have said it better
Don't forget lip fillers😹😹 honestly I love Kathleen to for your exact reasons above! My favorite part about her is that she doesn't have lip fillers
Nadine Ahmad same
Danielle Sandoval I added the lip filler part cause that's a HUGE one 😂👍🏼
Nadine Ahmad literally HUGE 😂😂 I
We love that you're not doing ridiculous trendy clickbait videos! And totally respect your privacy--it's going to preserve your real life and hopefully actually help you stick around longer on TH-cam.
As far as requests--maybe your top 3 fave looks that don't require falsies?
XOXO, Jaclyn
Please don't ever feel like you need to change! The fact that you don't use click bait titles and post extreme videos is why I love you. You're always so genuine, you have an amazing personality and always let that shine through. Old school beauty blogs are the best so keep doing what you're doing. Love your random rambles, chatty videos AND your normal beauty videos. Do lip swatches if it makes you happy! Most of your subscribers watch you for your personality, not only for your content so just keep being you. x
Kathleen, I'm more than twice your age so please take me seriously. DO NOT change. Your videos are perfect as is. When I see a new posting I get excited to watch. You can never do anyone better than being yourself. You are charming. You do the best lip swatches of anyone I have seen on TH-cam.
That said, I would enjoy more of your stories in 'Kat Chat' sessions. They are so funny.
tabriz12msc i
I completely agree! Im almost 40 and I think shes probably more relatable than most others!
You know what Kat, someone out there is on the fence about buying a Marc Jacobs lip product and wishes that there was a humble person who can honestly put out a quality video with it. If anyone should do it, it should be you. I love every single video you make because of who you are!
DO NOT CHANGE, PLEASE. You are so special and one of a kind and thats exactly why you're one my of favorite youtubers. A lot of youtubers are so basic and all try to be like one another but you're different in the best possible way. I always think to myself how cool it would be to be your friend in real life. please never change!! We need more people like you in this world Kathleen
so much love, from a fan in NYC
I 110% prefer your video style over those clickbait videos, when you pop up in my subscriptions I instantly click the video, whereas clickbait videos I sometimes don't even bother watching. I just enjoy your energy and feel more connected to you, because you are genuine and you post the videos YOU enjoy and not what you think will get the most views. I'm the same as you and enjoy the old school beauty videos because they're what made me fall in love with youtube, so please never change!
Bianca Jarrett yessss!!
No Kathleen, definitely keep your videos the same. This is your channel, so you can do videos that YOU WANT to do. And if you're thinking that you need to change to fit the status quo, don't think that. The reason you have all of the subscribers you do is because we enjoy you and the videos that you like to make. You are one of my favourite beauty gurus because you are so real and genuine and og. And girl you post those lip swatch videos if you want! I wanna see them! Don't ever let the pressure of others stop you from doing what you love to do. Good luck to you girl!
Honestly I love your classic content. I do wish you still did Days of Our Lights because I did enjoy those but it's very understandable that you just don't really wanna share everything in your life!! I love your old school ways please don't change it. I'm so sick of this new "wow factor" clickbait-y videos like you mentioned, and everyone seems to own a studio where they film. I just love the laid back, recording in my room/house kind of deal. It's something many people can relate to and I just hope that you see that and do stick with your regular content. You don't need to change for nothing or nobody!!
you're not a clone, imo you give off the most genuine vibes. I love that you don't claim to be a MUA or that you don't wear strip lashes. It really speaks to me and makes me feel better about a TRUE natural look.
Please don't change your content! I have unsubscribed from so many beauty youtubers because they changed and went for all those trendy videos and clickbait titles. Drives me nuts! But I love your genuine personality and talent, and I have watched every single video of yours since I subscribed a few years ago. Keep it up, beautiful!
EXACTLY! SAME HERE!
me tooooooooo!!
Same here!!! x
Same. I've stopped watching or unsubscribed from many of the beauty channels, but I always watch you, Kathleen. But, if there are videos you want to try out, I say go for it and see how the response is.
Personally, I hate story time videos because they seem to all be fake, OMG!SUCH SCARY videos because again, fake and often used by lazy people without any good ideas--just this one girl's opinion so....but I still love the classic TH-cam beauty style videos. I want to know which products are good, ya know? I'm someone who is always looking for healthier things for my face and body that actually work, so I'd love to see videos like that, maybe? You've built a lot of trust with me over the years and I still trust your opinion and there not many I can say that about left these days. I like the funny tag videos still, or swatch videos of products in a lines' range (like the lipstick one you mentioned) and I'm always game for tutorials!
Have a good day, girl. I wanted to give you a hug when you were talking about changes and flying and such. I'm the same about changes and flying too, and I've been forced to change my life recently because of cancer, and it's so hard to switch lanes but breathing exercises for real work. When my mind is going totally crazy at night with what ifs, I breathe in and out real calmly and count backwards from 200, and it helps shut my mind down so I can get some rest. Maybe it will help you too!
I don't want you to change, I love that you still film in your room, with no camera filter, no fancy backdrops (i feel I relate more when people just have their room as a background) , no over the top oversized lips 😒 I mean I don't wanna seem rude but I feel like more than half of the Beauty side of TH-cam does that.. and like you said I also feel it's a little clone-like.
paloma diaz I feel like filters completely ruin the purpose of beauty videos. If you're trying to cover scars or something, we need to be able to see it before and after in order to see the product's performance!
paloma diaz Yes! Or when the brightness is up WAY too high in a video... like girl what's the point in showing how a foundation works if we can't see what your skin actually looks like?!
Please don't stop with your chatty videos I think these are the ones why we all love you and have subscribed to you! Also I'd love to see more hair / skin / body care type of videos :)
Valentina yes we would love some more lifestyle videos along with your usual videos and I know I don't watch your vids just for your content but also because I really love your personality
I'm sure a thousand people have already said this, but it's because of your real and genuine personality that people keep watching your videos. You could literally be sitting there in the grubbiest clothes and rambling (oh wait, you already did that) and I would sit through the whole thing. I love that you're always thinking about what your subscribers want to see, but all we really want is you. You're fabulous and I hope you never forget it
No, please don't "get with the times". You are one of the few beauty gurus I can tolerate now. Everyone is starting to look and talk the same and it's really annoying but you're someone who I feel hasn't succumbed to that. You still seem like yourself and your videos don't feel like a commercial and I really really appreciate that. I know you said you feel like videos that aren't click bait/extreme "struggle" but just because a video isn't getting 500,000+ views doesn't mean it's doing poorly. There are a ton of different niches on TH-cam, such as people who enjoy what you call "old school" youtube makeup videos, and judging from your comment section and your view count, a lot of people really enjoy your content. You make great videos and you should make the kind of videos you want to make regardless of what the majority of the beauty community here on youtube is doing
Reyna Lute amen girl. Couldn't have said it better myself!!!
Also, there is so much love on Kathleen's channel and her followers. You get the bad eggs once in a while but I love that most of us are always supportive and building each other up!
Cheers ♥️
I wish I could do more than liking this comment because is sooooo true. Most of us feel the same and are proud of you Kathleen. ♡
We love you and your content. But please feel free to "update" it if you want as long as you feel that it goes with your personality and beliefs.
You're one of the great TH-camrs that are worth watching. Please remember that 👌
Corazon espinado ❤️❤️❤️
Please don't change! Love you!
Please don't change your video style because I love your content so much, especially since you're happy with your videos as well. You are not only in general one of my favorite youtubers but more specifically, you're my absolute favorite beauty guru. I hope you continue to post the content you're happy with. xx
anime has ruined my life yesss❤
anime has ruined my life yes...you are right
We watch you for the way you are. Please don't change. Your channel is great and you are one of my favorites to watch. There's almost no drama in the comments section like other people and I love that.
I don't even like to watch videos with click bait titles because I find them to be so annoying and over dramatic. You are my favorite TH-camr because of how genuine you are! Don't feel like you have to change to be like everyone else. I like you because you are different. ❤️
Totally agree with you on how the beauty community has changed so much! I love all of the old school beauty videos too & I love that you stay true to you! ❤️
I'm totally with u Brianna! xo
Brianna Fox agreed! I love both you ladies and I'm so glad you both are individual and both you do you. My two fav youtubers xxx
PLEASEEEEEEEEEE stay 'old school' kathleen! i love your unboxing videos, lip swatches, crazy bright makeup tutorials that fill me with envy and make me hunt for a reason to wear them, and giiiiiiiirl i live for chatty get ready videos. i watch you because i enjoy seeing your personality come through the camera and your life happening in the background while your dogs growl or construction is going on. it makes you seem so much more real and relatable!! I've spent hours just watching your videos because they are just you doing what you love. and your dedication to posting 3 times a week is definitely noticed and appreciated!! so, the moral of the story is.... you rock, don't ever change! 😋😍
Kayla Ross-Carr Agreed! Similarly with the background noice I love that she doesn't have a plain backdrop, I love that she just has her room in the background. To me it makes it so much more relaxed and less looking like a commercial. X
Nonono do not change please Kathleen. Your channel is my favourite TH-cam channel because of how genuine and un-clickbatey your videos are. You described it perfectly by saying everyone is just a clone of each other, trying to copy each others videos to get views and to stay relevant, and I really don't like that. I love your videos, not just because you have stayed true to the old school beauty videos but also because I love your personality, and it hasn't changed as the trends have changed. A lot of people I used to love have changed the way they act in their videos to seem more trendy and I don't know, just changed as their video styles have, but I'm glad you are the ones who haven't. I wish I could find more genuine channels to watch like you!
Also, I respect you for being a private person!
Everything that you post is gonna get millions of views from us whether it be a lip swatch or you just sitting in front of the camera and not talking at all. I and we all love you Kathleen
You are the most humble and modest person that I know.
Thank you for being that way even if you are one of the best and most successful you tuber.
Love You
Please don't change your style Kathleen! It's just like you said, you don't have to be a clone. I truly look forward your videos THE MOST because you keep it real, you don't use studio-like backdrop and make us watch using a clickbait titles. You give us real life advice and I think many other beauty gurus have slowly been drifting a way from that. And still, through all these changes in TH-cam, you're literally my number 1 favorite beauty guru.
Personally, I think this change towards shock and clickbait is not permanent, this is just a phase and soon people are either changing their style back to the "old" days or finding something new. But the shock factor is not there forever, in some point there's no shock for anything anymore because we've already seen it all. People are already getting tired to be "fooled" to watch videos. And then the channels who rely on that are screwed.
If you still feel like you have to update something on your channel, I would maybe do that by changing the background a little bit or just the video style. For example trying out more blurry background or something like that. You mentioned going to a course to learn stuff about cameras and editing and I think that would truly be a great idea!! You can make such a big difference by only changing that kinda stuff a little bit. But when it comes to your content, I truly hope you don't feel the need to change because there will always be people who like this style more and are fed up with the new styles that are drifting from the reality and not actually giving us any helpful advice.
(Wow this was supposed to be way shorter 😅😂 But I love you Kathleen!! xo)
Anna L love this!! I completely agree!
Kathleen it's madness that you think people wouldn't like the fact that you stay under the category of an 'OG' youtuber - IT'S WHY WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH! And probably why you have been doing so well for yourself as well. Many TH-camrs seem to live in another universe where they think the 'shock factor' and 'click bait' and everything you mentioned is what subscribers want, but most of the time it really isn't. You should be so proud of yourself and this is just one of the reasons why love you as much as we do! ❤️
P.s. For this reason I am only subscribed to you and Alison Henry out of the beauty community. You two are so genuine and true to yourselves and it's just wonderful
DON'T CHANGE KATHLEEN! Ever since I subscribed to you, I knew why many people love you, so don't change for us, please. A lot of people really love old school beauty videos - not that old school are ever a bad thing - that are not click bait, very honest and perfectly imperfect. You don't have to fake it till you make it. Again, I stress this part "beauty videos like Kathleen's are the best ones, the OG ones and I hope many of the famous beauty influencers return back to the original beauty videos". WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!
Just paused the video to say that one of the reasons I love your videos is because you have remained yourself the whole time. You don't try to do what everyone else is doing and I love that. I love the "old-school" videos and videos where you ramble so please don't apologize for them and definitely don't stop making them.
Kathleen, you shouldn't ever feel like what you do is too "old school" or not interesting enough because it just isn't true! Your personality and the energy you show in your videos is what got me to subscribe 3 years ago and your kindness hasn't changed a bit since then! Most beauty gurus today are NOTHING like how they were a few years back, character wise. All I'm trying to say is that thank you, truly for being just so real and genuine, and not becoming another carbon copy youtuber who does beauty/lifestyle videos 💕
Kathleen - you are one of the few TH-camrs who review all price ranges of makeup/skincare and are genuine about it. Keep doing you, that's why we love you so much! I'd personally love a lip gloss swatch video!! They're fun and I've been dying to see how this MJ glosses are 😊
don't change, this is why I love you. everyone else is so catty and full of drama and lame clickbaits. your channel feels humble with a side of glam
Watching some older videos those days and man... You're still the same (but better, you know !) and I think that's why I'm still watching your videos. You're down to earth and genuine, drama-free... Honestly, I've been watching your videos for years now and I'm glad you're still around. Wishing you the best. 😘
Please dont change!!! I personally have lost so much love for the beauty community. I feel like you are one of the only influencers that is still real.
Yes! I've stopped doing my makeup because the community is super uninspiring atm
Kathleen, you do you. Whatever videos you create, I am here to watch. I know for me, I watch these videos for YOU, whatever they end up being. Its like your my friend that I get to talk to a few times a week. Don't stress about what videos you create, because I know I am not the only one that supports you no matter what❤️
You are one of the most beloved people in the beauty community. Don't change your style. Keep being old school. And big yes to the lip swatch video. 💜
LoveTube777 totally!!! we love you so much!! from Argentina
We love you for being an OG. Keep on keepin on.
Sometimes I just need a break from the 'new' beauty community that is full of click bait and fake news, so I come to Kathleen's channel to get away and chill out from every other beauty guru because she is old school and different in a good way. I love Kathleen's videos and how original yet old school they are, she edits them so perfectly and I just love everything about her channel ❤❤
Emily Davidson I agree so much. There's so much drama and controversy everywhere else, and she keeps it so honest and real. It kills me to think that she would be worried about not conforming since that's the reason I love her content
Emily Davidson fake news lol
Don't worry about the trend the rest of TH-cam is taking. So many people are so consumed with the "fame" of TH-cam and not giving true opinions because they want to go on expensive holidays with brands. You are hands down my favourite youtuber because you're not like that. You do you and continue to do what you love! We'll keep watching cause we love you and how real you are (and that you're hilarious)!!
More vlogs with Danny and never stop lip swatch videos! They are vital and soooo helpful! Also more skincare/hair care!
Stay true to you!!! I love all of your videos!!! The best thing about you is how real and down to earth you are❤❤ I think you're amazing!
Please STOP saying you are sorry!! You have every right to do whatever YOU feel is right. This is YOUR channel. If you spend your life worrying about "disappointing" people, you will never enjoy success. Your subscribers love you for who you are - don't second-guess that.
Kathleen, yes to the lip swatch video! I personally find them super helpful, especially when I'm thinking about purchasing, because the online colors/swatches often aren't very true to color. I'll watch whatever you put out because I love your personality and find your videos relaxing and refreshing! 😚💖
Also, I'd love a swatch video on all of the *new Marc Jacobs eyeshadow palettes!* 💄💄💖💖
A combo of both would be great!
These are my favorite videos. Sitting down doing your hair, popping a face mask on and you having a real conversation. I just love this. Please don't change 😘
Recommended videos- updated morning/nighttime routine and vlogs! ❤️
omg kathleen please don't ever change your video style! Your channel is makes everyone feel at home. With your chatty videos and series incorporated into your beauty videos your subscribers feel like they are your friend! we love you so much. Love your story times and makeup tutorials. Keep being you!!
I don't ever want you to change your style. There are so many beauty channels that I think are too repetitive and I think yours is unique.
Please don't ever change! I know change is inevitable but honestly I used to love so many youtubers and I find myself only trusting your opinion now because of how real and "old school" you are! I love how you are! You're different and I can tell you don't post the same videos everyone else does. I still do watch and enjoy other Beauty Influencers but your opinion is the only one I feel is pure
Stay the same. This is what I appreciate about you and certain other beauty gurus in Florida. They specifically said this too in one of their chit chat videos too. You guys seem so real and down to earth
Do not change!!! please hear us when we say the we crave the old school TH-cam just as much or more than you do. One of the biggest reasons we all love you is because you are genuine. You do you boo
Kathleen's you're the only beauty TH-camr (that I follow) who hasn't gotten lip injections, veneers, microblading, eyelash extensions, all that jazz that everyone else does. Hell, you don't even contour the crap out of your face to change it. Not that I'm against any of that but it's just SO refreshing to see and you are so stunning naturally. It's just so nice to see a nice natural beauty who doesn't give into all that stuff!! ❤️❤️❤️
- Tbh, clickbait videos may get clicked on the most, but I bet if you looked at the stats, most of those views only last about 30 seconds before the viewer gets bored and clicks off. The original style of youtube videos with the makeup collections, the swatches, the favourites etc will always be my favourite because they're the reason I started watching youtube, they're what got me into makeup in the first place, and they're not only enjoyable but also helpful. You enjoy making them, sooo many more people enjoy watching them than you think, and if you change your style of video to ''fit in'' then you're not being true to yourself and yeah you might get a few more views but do the numbers really count if those views aren't from people who genuinely want to watch you? Keep doing what you're doing, because a lot more people love it than you think x
Kathleen. You could post a video of "how I brush my hair" and I'd still watch it. The true subscribers will watch anything! 💕
Fatima Gamino I agree 1000%
Kathleen, this is WHY you're my favorite person on TH-cam. You don't fall prey to the BS that seems to happen among other beauty influencers and you always are 100% real. I actually feel like you could be my gal pal, while the others just feel kinda fake. No shade to them, I enjoy their videos... but you are honestly my absolute favorite. My favorites are always your unboxing videos, and your tutorials. I learned a cut-crease from you! Keep up the amazing work, you're the best!
Kathleen don't ever change! It was nice to see this chit chat vlog style video but nothing's better than waking up in the morning and seeing that you already uploaded your unboxing video or drugstore hauls. You're so consistent and so unique to this TH-cam community that there's never a doubt in my mind wether or not I should click on your videos. You're amazing and we all love you ❤️❤️❤️
Kathleen u do u, and we will all love u no matter what❤❤❤
Couldn't have said it better, Shellybelle!
Kathleen can you do the best drugstore makeup for school, like lip gloss, tinted stuff, bronzer, blush, highlight, etc.
shellybelle93 i totally agree! she should never feel pressured to change!
shellybelle93 totally agree kathleen is beautiful inside out
I stopped this video, like 1 minute in just to say, she is perfect. I love her so much because she is herself and nobody else. That's what makes her, her. She's my favorite on TH-cam because she doesn't just do what everybody else is doing - just for views. You're so sweet and kind and genuine. That's so rare on TH-cam anymore. It's become more about views and cliques than being personal. I love your random rambles and katchats. Thank you for being you ❤
Monica Howell couldn't agree more, I love kathleen❤️
Girl, please stop apologizing! Be you and do what you can! I enjoy the variety you've been providing! 😀
Kathleen. Earlier today, I went through all my subscriptions and and unsubscribed to about 70% of channels I was previously subscribed to. You made the cut. You know why? Because I love your content. Stay like this. I love it when you do you, because I love YOU. And I love you, because you are you! You're real. Thats why I love your videos.
Stay old school, you do you. That's why most of us started following you. Don't conform to the change. Do what you love, that's what I like most.
I personally would love to see a continuation of your makeup collection series!
Can I just say I love you and your videos. PLEASE do not "get with the times" I love the videos you post. I look forward to them more than you will ever know. I love that you have your privacy and your life away from the camera. I love your pace here on youtube. Please don't change.
I LOVE the old school TH-cam videos like what's in my bag, good ole hauls, favorites, tag videos, & I love lip swatch videos!!! Those are the kinds of videos I started watching & there's nothing I love more than when a TH-camr just talks & is relatable and real and it makes me feel like we're girlfriends chatting about makeup. That's why I started watching TH-cam! And I learned how to do a lot of my makeup by chatty get readies and tutorials. I LOVE you Kathleen!! 😘😘😘
omg girl no, please don't change anything about your channel. I love how different you are from other youtuber. I love the OG video even if they don't get much videos. Your loyal fans will still be here!!!
PS: please bring back at least a couple vlogs and PLEASE DO SUMMER BODY CARE VIDEO POR FAVOR xoxo Vanesa
You're old school but that's what makes you unique. A breath of fresh air whenever I watch your videos! Keep doing TH-cam the way you're doing it and enjoy it. I absolutely love your character and I love your videos! 😍
Zozeekin right!!!
Affordable hair and face masks.
Morning routine.
Series for begginers.
Things that you love, not make up but for example a whole video dedicated to things that makes you happy
SERIES FOR BEGINNERS. Always buy foundation but never use it because I never know how to blend. You could do a picking out the right foundation video along side that.
Oh man. I recently found you here on TH-cam when I was looking for videos to watch while I'm feeding my rescue stray cat. She's very sick and has to be fed through a feeding tube so I'm stuck in the bathroom for about twenty minutes feeding her with nothing to do. I have SO been enjoying your personality and just you being you. You are a breath of fresh air from the TH-cam beauty community. I'm a 33 year old mother of three and I find a lot of the beauty gurus to be not my fave. You are so genuine and basically awesome. Keep doing you. You're a diamond in the rough. And thank you for sharing your struggles. It helps people to know they're not alone. Best wishes.
KATHLEEN I REALLY HOPE YOU SEE THIS BUT NEVER CHANGE YOURSELF TO ACCOMMODATE TO TH-camS CHANGES. I LOVE your videos as they are and I watch you BECAUSE YOU HAVE NEVER CHANGED. I see all these youtubers let "the fame get to their head". I can see that you haven't changed in 4 years. I literally created a TH-cam account just so I could subscribe to you. Truly the only youtuber that I always come back to. Also you are just brutally honest with every product you try and I trust your opinions and recommendations.
Also I love videos like this. It feels like we're literally just sitting talking.
Gisela Martinez couldn't have said it better 💕
Thanks for staying old school and staying true to yourself Kathleen!! Here's a video idea for you; cruelty free dupes. I know you have a HUGE makeup collection and I would love you to search through it and find dupes for popular non cruelty free makeup. I know not everyone is cruelty free when it comes to cosmetics, but I would really enjoy that kind of video. Thanks for being you. Much love ❤
Kylie Eeee love that idea!!
Seconded!
Yes please!!
Great idea!
This would be so good!!!!!!!!
There's a reason why I'm subscribed to you and not to the crazy click bait tubers (I mean no shade to them whatever works but its not my cup o tea). Love your style and love your content, I trust your recommendations because I feel like you truely like the products and not because of financial gain.
No!! We love you the way you are Kathleen. Please don't change ❤️ you're one of the few people that I watch just bc of how TRUE and genuine you are. You and your channel are perfect!!
You're my favourite beauty youtuber because you're so real, and I can tell that you're not in it for fame, attention or money. You're successful for all the right reasons! I can see your passion and personality and I love how genuine you are! Don't feel the need to change just because TH-cam is changing ❤️
I totally agree with you on this. Love her.
Me too!
There's a TH-camr BeautywithEmilyFox that does these like throwback favorites. She'll go back on camera and watch her oldest monthly favourites and then go through each product and say if she likes it again. It's really helpful since it'll let people know if it really did work or if you just bought it and used it for the hype. Hope that helps 😄 Keep doing you Kathleen, I love your videos and especially tutorials, you are one of the few that I follow that actually does tutorials still.
PolishBraider611 I love Emily and I love that series ❤️❤️❤️
Please stay the way you are!! I love watching your random videos, makeup tutorials, basically anything you post! You are one of the only youtubers that has remained genuine and humble!!
Kathleen, my sister and I have been watching you for years now and just absolutely love how you're "oldschool" and so real with everyone. We both know from experience how anxiety can affect a person. I want to share with you a few things that may help your anxiety. My mom struggled with bad anxiety and anxiety attacks for 8 years straight. Most nights she wouldn't sleep because she was afraid that she, my dad, my sister, or I would stop breathing and suddenly die in our sleep. This is how bad it was for all those years. She would go to work and occasionally have to excuse herself from a meeting to go to the bathroom where she would cry and almost hyperventilate while saying, "God please just get me through the day. I have a great job, a loving husband, a beautiful home, and healthy children; why do I feel this way"? We all went to church together as a family every Sunday morning and one particular Sunday the Pastor ended the service asking if anyone struggling with anxiety would come up for prayer. That day my mom said in her mind that she wasn't going to accept the anxiety anymore and that she needed to give it to God because she couldn't get rid of it on her own. She then RAN (yes ran) to the stage for prayer and before the Pastor had even gotten to her for prayer she was crying and in her mind begging God to take the anxiety and fear from her. At this point she saw in her mind her heart and it had the word "FEAR" written across it and a hand with an eraser that came and erased those words slowly from her heart. From that point on she hasn't had an anxiety attack. She kept declaring that she wasn't going to claim that fear or anxiety anymore. My mom has been free for about 10 years. It may be unconventional or old school, but I believe God gives us testimonies to help other people overcome the difficulties that come with life. I just wanted to encourage you that God wants to heal you from your anxiety and He wants to have a relationship with you. Philippians 4:6 says, "Don't fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praise shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God's wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It's wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life." I'm not an expert in anxiety, but what I know to be true is that God works. I just think..why not try it? Love you Kathleen.
I swear you could just stare the camera for 20 minutes and I'd still watch the whole thing. That's how much i like you.
Vanessa Photography me too.. she is my absolute favorite ❤
exactly!! she needs to realise that most of her subscribes dont even care what she uploads, as long as she is uploading😍
I love these types of videos!!! Especially bc you are so private about your life (which I totally respect and think is a great choice) these chit chat videos allow us to kinda get to know you more and just feel like we're hanging out. Love you Kathleen!!! Don't ever change, do you boo! 😊❤
Kathleen you are the most down to earth beauty TH-camr. I'm subscribed to a couple of gurus but a lot of the times I don't watch their videos, but I always stop whatever I'm doing to watch your recent uploads! Your channel is so much more REAL (no offense to others) but it is refreshing to watch someone "like me". I'm not trying to call out other makeup TH-camrs as fake, but your channel is so refreshing. Continue to make the videos that make YOU happy! You will always have people who will want to watch your videos, but I understand wanting to make your subscribers happy. Do what you want to do and your supporters will be happy! (Also P.S I love this chatty/vlog style type of video! I would love if you would post more of them!). Love you ❤️
I love "old TH-cam". Lipstick swatches, what's in my bag, chit chat get ready with me, random facts.... don't ever change Kathleen we love you ❤️❤️
Nobody likes lip swatch videos?! They are my favorite to watch! ESPECIALLY from you! Yes, do the video!
Maygin Mace Love them!
I love your videos, Kathleen, don't ever change!! I just miss your lip swatches (what got me to watch you in the beginning). I would love for when you do first impressions to come back to the video at the end for an update but that's it. Keep doing you and don't change into basic beauty gurus. Here's a secret: a majority of people don't really like them cuz they all became click bait and over the top except for their own fans. And they get CONSTANTLY made fun of by other channels. I love NOT seeing you in drama channels so you're good! We love you for you! ❤️❤️
Kathleen never change! I love your content and how it's old school as opposed to other you tubers that are so extra I love anything you post bc your so passionate about it xoxo keep doing your thing we all love you for that reason
Kathleen is my favourite youtuber exactly because she is not the same plastic moulded beauty guru that films the same videos over and over. I have watched every single video she has filmed since I found her about 2 and a half years ago. I love her for who she is - an amazing, creative and interesting young woman making her mark in the youtube and beauty community.
