I wear a full face of glam makeup and a bold red lip at every chemo appointment. I think of it as my own war paint to fight the cancer. Red lipstick has always reminded me of power and it's just what I needed. There are definitely days that i can't get going and putting on that makeup and drawing my eyebrows back on gets me out of the house and back into life. It's made having no hair look beautiful. Thank you for this video
You are amazing! Sending prayers and positive vibes to you!
You're an Amazon! Kick that big C's ass!
Thank you everyone so much! It all truly does mean a lot to me to have support and all the love you are sending. Xoxo
Jen Byrne I’ve seen you comment on other videos before, and every time I see your beautiful face I think, look at that babe with the stunning red lips!!! Thought this was a perfect time to tell ya!? Lol
Sending you virtual hugs and best wishes!!❤️

I quit dating over 3 years ago. It became too depressing. I was meeting all the same people and they were all jerks. I knew not all men were jerks so I figured I was the common denominator. I have spent the last three years working on myself and I am more confident and content than I ever have been. My youngest of three graduates from high school in 3 days. Last fall, I began feeling really anxious about that. I did not like the world I was leaving to my kids. Things are really messed up and I felt I needed to do more. So, I began studying for the LSAT, I took it in January and was accepted into law school in March. I will be a first-year law student in August at 44 years old. Not dating has given me time to figure out what I really want in life. Prince Charming is not coming to give me the life I want, so I'm going to have to go get it myself. I've finally figured out what I want to be when I grow up :)
It takes a lot of strength to do what you, so kudos to you and good luck for your future 💫
Shelby Hall congratulations! I am graduating from law school on Saturday-you’ve got a long road ahead of you but you will learn so much and it will be so worth it! ❤️
I’m in a similar place! After a few years of crappy dating I’ve decided that I’m done. I want to focus on myself & do something to make me happy. I’m looking at enrolling for university at the age of 36. My eldest is starting uni next year & youngest going to high school next year.
I finally feel ready to do something for myself!! Here’s to all the strong, independent woman who are practising self care & love!! ❤️
YASSS! Congratulations! You got this!
LOVE THIS, congrats to you!!!
I had wondered about your (ex) bf... hadn’t heard anything about him in a while. But definitely not my business to ask! So glad you are doing and feeling better 🙌🏼💕💕
I’m 31 and married but went through a few really really hard breakups in the past. After having my heart completely shattered I met a man that loves me intensely and treats me like a queen. Before meeting him I went through a dark time where I thought this kind of relationship was impossible. I just wanted to share with you all that if there’s someone out there that’s hurting you or you feel things just aren’t right, YOU DESERVE MORE and you WILL find it.
I am 32 and have lost all hope of marriage and babies after awful relationship experiences. You give me hope!
Thank you for these words. Really. I wish you the best.
I’m so glad you posted this Jamie! I was engaged 3 years ago, when he decided to call things off and leave (he had met someone else). It was probably the most (relationship wise) painful thing I had gone through, because there was no closure. We were together for 5 years, and so it took me a while to bounce back! Over time as it passed I really began to see a lot I wasn’t seeing in the relationship, I would sit down and reflect, and began to see just how toxic it was, and overtime, that helped me heal along the way, and in the end came to the conclusion that he probably did me the biggest favour. I’m happy you were able to open up! Make up is beautiful! 🥰
Holy cow. I didnt know you went through a breakup!
Edit: I’m also going through a breakup right now from a 6yr relationship and this is exactly what I needed.
Jean From BeautyShopPH hang in there girl ❤️ things will get better
You're awesome!
I feel you entirely. We were 7 years old and it came out of nowhere. How do you cope? I’m a mess
We all go through breakups and especially the bad ones
Just stay strong no matter what better things will come for sure have faith to yourself 🙏🏻
Exact same. 6 years and he was my first everything. I'd never thought it'd be that hard.
I finally left my abusive ex-boyfriend in January and as of March have officially been completely free of him (I had to file an order for protection and go to family court against him). Thank you for your kind words, and your wisdom. I'm finally feeling like that weight is starting to lift.
Sending lots of love your way.
(hugs)
I had to go thru that as well... it def. Was not easy at all... still struggle at times with ptsd bc of it.
I think makeup is MAGICAL AF, like we don't actually change at all as a person but we feel so much better.
Thank you for this video, and we love and support you!
I LOVE this!! Not enough people take the time to date themselves and it’s been the most important thing I’ve done for myself. Thank you for sharing this message 💕
This is why I love you Jamie. You allowing yourself to heal at your own pace without clinging onto the idea that you should move on to someone new right away is amazing. Not very many people do that. People need to learn to love themselves again before they can love anyone else.
Jamie you just got me in the feels and this really touched me.. Thank you so much for sharing this! I'm so glad you're in a better place now! Over a year ago I also went through a break up after a 4 year relationship and it's still something I am working to get over every day. We got this! and this look is bomb! xo
Jamie you’re a queen🙌🏼 I love the confidence and how you’re always putting out positivity ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I went through a breakup in January, and it hit me hard. I cried everyday for weeks...eventually thought I was doing fine when I really was just distracting myself with school. now that it's summer, I've been sort of falling back into a mentally rough time, and this video was a good reminder to self-reflect and take better care of myself. loved this so much!!!
I got my heart broken 3 years ago really bad and it takes a lot of time to get over someone, it's almost like mourning someone who is still alive, but I've learnt to love myself first and accept myself without needing someone's constant approval
Jamie Paige your AWESOME! This look is KICK ASS for sure. A year ago we lost a house we had build 8 years ago to a fire. My husband and I have 3 kids and luckily no one was home when the lighting struck. The past year has been super hard but like you I’m finally healed. Yes I know this isn’t a breakup for me but I sure felt like my life was broken. As weird as it may be to some I still got up and did my makeup because I wanted to feel in control and strong and still a bad ass even tho we lost everything. I didn’t know this about your bf and your breakup.....David was it? You’ve been so strong and just your beautiful self. Thanks for sharing and always posting videos that inspire and teach and help more then you’ll know
I could tell that you weren’t in a good place but didn’t wanna comment anything bc I knew you’d tell us on your own terms so good to see you GLOWING and PROSPERING
Your intro is so wholesome! A++ for vulnerable and motivational Jamie ❤️
I normally don’t coment on videos, but I had to show my suport and admiration for you. You really are such an amazing and positive person. Lots of love from Portugal ❤️
I’m glad you found your groove again. Know that every experience you go through makes you grow as a person, wiser and stronger. Your vid today was very positive and evoked a strong message of self empowerment & self love. Wishing you joy & clarity ❤️
Sending you positive vibes! ✨ and so glad to hear that you’re feeling like yourself again! 🙌🏼
PS: we always enjoy EVERY look you do!
Jamie! When going through tough times, I would feel like shit, but having a bath, putting perfume on, doing my nails and doing my makeup , just doing things for myself made me feel so much better. I really had no idea what was making me sad, so I couldn't really figure out how to fix it. Thank you so much for making this video. The fact that you were not feeling okay made me really sad, but taking inspiration from you on how to take care of myself really helps me. We love you and just thank you for existing! We're all with you!
The beauty community needs more videos like this right now!! Love it ❤️ You’re such a positive light, Jamie ☺️
I suffered from really bad anxiety while I was at uni this past spring semester. I couldn't get any studying done and then I felt guilty about not being able to get anything done. The only thing that really helped me (before I finally got into therapy again) was doing my makeup. After I did it, I always felt like I was more powerful and many times I could do a homework assignment, or look over my notes a little bit. It was a form of therapy for me and it was super important for me to also get the colors in my eyeshadow into my life since the world around me was all white and grey. I kept doing this even after I got into therapy whenever I felt like I was starting to get to a peak in my anxiety and it brought me back down to a good level so I could focus. Makeup is so therapeutic for so many things! Thanks for making this video Jamie
Jamie, I always applaud how great you are at letting us know you better without going to the point of overshadowing your life with a social media "persona." Does that make sense? You really are a class act and I think that your sentiments on this are so helpful to people. Celebrate yourself indeed! 🍾☀💄
Thank you so much!!!!💕
A breakup is actually what really got me into makeup! My ex was helping me move my stuff out of my apartment into storage for the summer and I'd left my makeup bag (one bag at the time like a normal person) in his car; someone broke in that night and stole it! I was going abroad for a few weeks so started watching youtube to do some research as to what I wanted to replace my stolen makeup with. When I got back he very painfully ended things as I also discovered my dad was ill. I became so entrenched in the makeup community at that point as it felt like my only coping mechanism and made me feel creative and good about myself. Thanks for being there for me when I needed to escape Jamie! Happy to hear your on the positive end of it now too!
Jamie you literally made me cry talking about how good you feel after being so low. I’m going through a breakup now. I had a mental breakdown earlier and I literally feel like I’m drowning and can’t get out of the water, with sadness. This really gave me hope and I think a video like this was so necessary. Thank you ♥️
Makeup helps me cope with auto immune illness that often involves pain and severe fatigue.
When I see my reflection I fake myself out with the reality of look good feel better.
Grief & loss happen. Tools to cope are always a help. And the essential time & space to work it through.
There are no shortcuts.
Good for you Jamie.
Young women get such social pressure to define themselves through relationships
--but ironically those relationships won’t work well till they discover who they are on their own.
And that doesn’t usually happen till they walk through the pain.
You are now a real grown up woman!
Congratulations from a 63 year old grown up woman! 👍
This comment makes me very happy. I'm 22, because of the breakups and tough times I've learnt to embrace pain, sadness and grief instead of fighting against it. I also realized that I have to discover myself without a relationship. Coming from a wiser woman makes me feel valid.
I hope you find happiness, strength and peace in your health journey ❤️
Amulya Subhash I promise you will enjoy life and relationships much better now that you have confidence in yourself on your own.
I was older than you when I figured it out -so way to go girl, you sound very smart and mature.
I’m happy with life in spite of health stuff. I feel like makeup and realizing how much worse it could be help. But I’ll take all the well wishes. 😁👍
i’m still not over my breakup from several months ago and every time i feel sad about it i just blast music and do my makeup and it calms me so much and makes me feel confident in myself again. thank you for always being such an inspiration and i’m glad you’re doing better!! we got this 💪🏻❤️
What she said about “dating yourself” is so true! I’ve grown so much, learned so much about who I am and meant to be, and have become comfortable with being me by “dating myself”.
I’m going thru the end of a 14 year marriage. That which doesn’t kill you, as they say. Yes in the self care💕
I broke up with my boyfriend 5 months ago and it's been really difficult to move on and not feel empty inside. Thank you for this video Jamie, just knowing that you went through the same shit and came out as incredibly amazing as you are gives me hope and strength. Sending all the love your way❤️
I am in the same place as you. I broke up almost a year ago and went through a very rough time. So far, 2019 has been an amazing year of self-growth and self-care. I feel happier, stronger and more confident than ever. During this whole process my motto has been "Put yourself first before anyone else!"
Yes can relate! Had a breakup of a 5 year relationship. Feel so free and loving the time to myself, finding out who I am and putting myself out there. A real time of self discovery. You don’t realise how bad you need it until you have a breakup. Hope you have found happiness in yourself xx ❤️
I think the thing with doing your makeup when you are hurting is that it gives you some control back. Breakups can completely rock your world and routine and it can be hard to get your footing so you can move forward. When I broke up with my high school boyfriend, I was absolutely devastated. We had been together for all of my teenage years and I felt super lost (but also relieved because he was not great ahahaha). I started wearing red lipstick every day and I kid you not it made me feel like an absolute babe. Although I don’t wear it as much now (I don’t feel I need to to feel amazing) I am so grateful for that tube of L’Oréal lipstick.
A year and a half ago I broke up with my boyfriend of seven years. I had to get to know myself again and learn a new kind of independence. I feel like I’ve grown so much and I’m in a much better place than even a year before the breakup. It’s beautiful to have a solid sense of self and a new-found respect for yourself. I’m happy to hear you’re doing so well, Jamie!
❤️💕
About a year ago I was really struggling with a breakup too. I resented myself for so long. Then I turned to fitness and TH-cam and I sought my “revenge” haha. Now I’m so happy and grateful that I took the time to focus on myself and make myself better for me before anyone else. Now I’m in a much healthier relationship and I’m excited for the future! Thanks Jamie, you were one of the ones to help me through it ❤️
It took me 2 years to get over my last breakup, and i feel so much stronger and happier now. I think its also important for everyone to understand that its okay to always have love for the other person, but don't mistake it for being IN love with them. Having love for people who are no longer in your life is something that only comes with growth. Of course, not everyone will have love for their ex bc some exes don't deserve the time of day but, i know personally i will always have love and respect for my ex. Thats when you realize you are finally okay.
Anyways, Jamie you are so strong and i have seen that growth radiate from your presence. This was really nice to hear, this is what i needed 2 years ago. Thank you for being you we love you so much and yeah you look hawt duh.
Alex, play Soulmate by Lizzo for all my bad b's going thru a breakup right about now.
I’m going through a breakup, my relationship lasted almost three years and it has been really hard. However, everything Jamie said was sooo true and relatable 💗 thanks for everything Jamie
Learning who we are is SO critical to 'growing up' and giving our best to the world over our lifetimes.
So, looking on the bright side, your breakup taught you things that have moved you forward! Congrats.
I fully agree with makeup being therapeutical while going through a hard time. I had a completely terrible year basically and, as you said, makeup was the only thing I could do that felt comfortable and made me feel safe and myself.
I agree with every word in the intro. And it feels good to know I’m not alone in my experience. My relationship ended after 6 years and I was almost immediately replaced with someone 5 years younger. My self worth was shattered. It still is. Makeup and youtube videos got me through the hardest days. Thanks for connecting with us on this level xox
Makeup has always helped me feel better when I'm down in the dumps from a breakup. Retail therapy also helps! Sometimes people perceive that as superficial but I think while it won't "solve" your problems in life, it is a form of self care... Thanks for posting this video! I love the idea :)
You’re helping someone by doing this video, Jamie. Sharing yourself with strangers is hard, but you’ve healed enough to be at that point. I’m so happy to hear you’re doing better. Beautiful look! ❤️😘
Daisy x Estée earrings? Lovely!
I was thinking maybe you were going thru a trial ..back around September you did a GRWM and you said it had been a rough time and that putting on makeup helps bring you back up.. I'm glad your feeling better.. in 2016 my divorce was finalized, 22 years of marriage ... done..gone..it was hard..if ya think about it i was 19 the last time i dated..at 19 things were where they are supposed to( pre kids condition)be.. whole different dating world..heck we didnt have cell phones then,let alone computers and online dating.. I am finally coming out on the other side,seeing the light and getting my footing back..its taking a bit longer than I woulda liked..but at least I'm getting there..may God bless you for your positive and uplifting videos you put out into this world helping others..
The massage in this video is beautiful, I think it applies for whenever you go through hardships, not only breakups.
The last time I went through a breakup, it was actually a good experience looking back at it. It helped me to remind myself my true value, it made me feel more confident, strong, independent and desirable. Eventually we got back together, but our relationship changed competently, for the better. Now I know that no matter what I go through and how hard it may feel in the moment, I know I can pull through.
Jamie, your timing is impeccable. I’m 4 days into a breakup, it’s been so hard to get up and do my makeup and i’ve never clicked faster on a video. Thank you for this, you feel like a great friend lol. I’m gonna take some really great selfies now ✨
Sending you love Cheri ❤️
I love this!! Just under a year ago my boyfriend of 8 years left me for someone else. I wish I had this video 10 months ago! ❤️❤️❤️
I just went through a tough breakup myself. I did a very similar look yesterday. I'm also FINALLY at a place where I'm starting to feel.beautiful again, and it's such an amazing feeling. No more pain, only light and healing!
Broke up with my boyfriend of 9 years almost 2 years ago (holy cow has it been that long?) but your words hit home. Spent so much time just wanting to know when I’d feel okay again. Makeup helped a lot. Wishing you nothing but happiness and love on your new journey as a single woman. (It truly is a journey!)
J D are you ok now?
Kelsey Jones That’s the realist thing I’ve been asked 😂 I’m doing well, thank you! It’s amazing to reflect back on those days and see where I am now - which is happy 😊
Thank you for this, Jamie. I'm currently going through a breakup myself and its been so incredibly hard on me, both physically and mentally. I focus so much energy on beating myself up about it when really I should be celebrating myself. Thank you for keeping your channel so real and for reminding us that you're just as human as the rest of us are - it's one of my favourite things about this channel. Here's to all the women who've gone through tough shit and have made it out as better versions of themselves!
Jamie - I've been a subscriber of yours for quite a few years. I've always enjoyed your content, and still do to this day. I love that you did this video. Makeup is definitely something that motivated me when I split from my ex of 4 1/2 yrs. So I can relate to you on that level. I wish you all the best in life and know that you'll always have my support ! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I ended a relationship after 5 years together because I didn't spend any time in those 5 years taking care of myself. I'm glad you took a scary step to get to a better place. It's so hard to do that. I'm glad we both get to take care of ourselves and be happier now. I wish you all the best, Jamie. Thanks for sharing.
I went through a terrible break up 4 years ago and it took me a year to finally be able to talk and feel okay about it. But that year and that breakup was the best thing that could’ve ever happened to me! like you said I took so much time for myself and I found things I love and enjoy and truly found myself in that time! So happy you’re doing better now! 💕💕💕
I’ve been following you since 2016 and to see your evolution makes me so proud. You’re one of the TH-camrs who is actually truly beautiful inside and out. You are my inspiration! Love you always queen! ❤️
I remembered when I go through breakup until I got into depression for one whole years. I didn't eat or sleep. But then I started use makeup and it's making me so confident until today. Also, having new group of friends and have adventure with yourself it's just a good way to process it. I love you Jamie you are amazing!! ❤️❤️😘😘😘😘
Just sending you good vibes! Love what you said about supporting yourself through a breakup. I was single a good three years after my only serious relationship. Dated a little. But mostly I learned that I loved being single. I think it's an important part of our lives and I have that a lot of us just want to skip over it, but being single teaches you too know what you want and be your own best friend. I'm married now but he had to work pretty hard to get me to give up the single life 😂
*I knew awhile ago (right around the time the sisters gave you a makeover) that you were going through a breakup. You can always tell when someone changes their appearance, and yours changed pretty drastically, that they're usually in the space where for so long they were doing things for their significant other. Now they're doing things to make themselves feel good and look good, especially if it was either a relationship that wasn't the most fufilling or if someone's feelings were neglected... Before long, you realize how much better off you are without them and you start to look and feel like a new BADASS WOMAN!*
Thank you for posting this Jamie, I recently went through a breakup with my boyfriend of 3 years. I ended up calling things off because of his lack of love for me that was very apparent as time went on. He stopped talking to me, seeing me, came up with every excuse in the book and essentially gave up. This has been the most painful thing I’ve ever gone through because I’ve had no closure about it or why this happened. I’m trying to get through this and find myself again after finding my identity in him for so long... it’s been 3 weeks and he’s already pursuing another girl (who is actually 17) and he’s 21. I’ll get through this... one day at a time. It comes in waves, sometimes I feel like I’m on top of the world and a flood of memories, sadness, and anger hits me like a brick wall.
thanks for the video! you never have to explain yourself, or feel bad about sharing/not sharing stuff with your audience. we will always respect that!
I really appreciate that 💕
Yes agree with you putting makeup doesn't need anybody's validation but boosting your self worth
My ex and I broke up last June. I felt like a shell of myself for a long time. I’m finally getting back into TH-cam videos again and really glad I caught this one of you. Sending positive vibes your way, not because you need them but hey why not. 😊
Girl, I feel you 100%. I went through a pretty tough breakup last year as well and it was especially tough because I moved to the other side of the world because of him (I'm from Brazil and moved to Germany) so yeah... it wasn't easy. But I decided to stay in Germany since I already had my entire life here (new friends, a house, studies, etc) and in the beginning it was so difficult... Time really is the only way to heal. Just give yourself time. It gets better. I also have never felt more like myself and don't think I've ever been this happy.
thank you so much for making this video Jamie, it really warmed my heart and i’m incredibly proud of you. you’re truly a woman of class and integrity, something i continue to aspire to be. i myself went through a terrible breakup six months ago, but since then i have evolved into a stronger, more resilient woman. in the end i did everything i could to mend my relationship, but it wasn’t enough. never again will i beg and plead for a boy to stay, to not give up on us. we were meant to part paths, everything happens for a reason. if he’s meant to be in my life, then he’s meant to be in my life, but i’ve grown as an individual and i’m finally becoming the girl i always dreamed of being. i finally got a job as a vet assistant and i’ll be attending school again in the fall. i brought myself out of the darkest place in my life, and i did it on my own. whoever is reading this and happens to be going through a rough time, you can too.
You said it - everything happens for a reason ❤️
Thanks girl for talking about this tough topic! It’s not an easy one to discuss but as someone who also went through a breakup around this time last year I can relate to the pain you initially felt and realizing that time and self care are really the only two things that will help you heal. For anyone else going through a hard time remember it will get better even if it doesn’t feel like it in this moment. You’re a strong girl! 💜
💕💕💕
I just went thru a breakup and it sucked so so much... ive never felt like this in previous breakups 🥺 plus all my friends are away for a year. Thank u so much jamie to make me believe my silver lining is coming!!!!!
So happy to see you being happy xxx i just graduated yesterday, and i am so stressed prepping for my license exam. Everytime i feel stressed, i opened your video and put on makeup. Thanks so much for shining my world jamie!
So great that you demonstrated such healthy boundaries while you were going through a tough time. We see so many TH-camrs who don't: I really think some of them end up suffering emotionally as a result. Love the eye shadow look!
I’m actually going through a breakup, and we were together as long as you and David were. Much love for this 🖤
Damn, this is really what I needed to hear, especially the part about being comfortable in my own skin and confident enough to be happy with who I am and who I’m becoming and not to depend too much on other people.
I’m going through an emotional rough time, especially because it feels to me that all of my closest friends are going forward and starting to work and being successful while I’m stuck, wanting to make new experiences but never having the chance to actually do so. Plus it’s been ages since my last relationship and I just don’t feel confident anymore, like I won’t be able to find someone or get into a relationship. Your words are so inspiring tho! ✨ thank you for sharing your experiences and wisdom!
I would have never guessed you guys had broken up, but again it shouldn't be anyone's business but yours! I can't imagine how hard it is feeling like you HAVE to let thousands of ppl know bc you decided to share that part of your life to us and feeling like we deserve to know. TH-camrs truly have it hard when it comes to stuff like this. I'm glad to hear you're doing much better bc I know breakups are hard (even if I haven't made it past a 3 yr relationship LOL). I'm a hopeless romantic and when I fall for someone, I fall harddddd. the time frame you spend getting to know someone doesn't even matter cause sometimes you meet people, and instantly click, and feel like they are literally someone you've been missing and didn't know you were. and when things don't work out, and you keep trying n trying and not getting the same effort back, it fu*king sucks. feeling like u did something wrong even when you didn't, sucks. feelings like there could've been something more you could've done to make it work, sucks. but I realized that at the end of the day, what is meant to be will happen, and what is not, won't. some people come in only to teach us lessons and that's okay!! we do as much as we can, and people who truly want you in their lives, will make sure they do EVERYTHING to keep you there and to let you know they want you there. this was what I learned personally, from my recent heartbreak. I eventually started to feel like I didn't want to just be in bed all the time moping and forced myself to do as much as I could, even if it meant with starting off with just making myself breakfast, or moving to the couch. almost 2 months later, I'm starting to play with makeup again and I've reminded myself how therapeutic it is for me to just play music or TH-cam videos while getting ready, even if I'm not going anywhere. I hope everyone dealing with any heartbreak knows that they will get through the dark patch and that things do get better! 💝
Thank you so much for sharing your story 💕💕
I'm so happy that you're at peace with yourself! I'm going through a tough phase as well and your video is motivating me to feel better and love myself more. Thank you Jamie! You truly are a great model to look up to and you'll always be my fav youtuber! 🥰😍💖
Thank you. I am going through a horrendous break-up, at the moment, and feel and look terrible. Really appreciate you sharing this and hope I feel OK and look fabulous again soon. x
Immediately ran to look at my Marc Jacobs eyeliner to see the little sharpener...who knew!! Thank you!!
B. Bates me too!
I went through a very hard breakup a few years ago. I was the one who ended it because I was unhappy. Everyone in my family and all my friends told me I was making a mistake. That was literally the worst feeling... feeling as though no one else has confidence in my decision. It was a tough break up but after I did it I woke up the next morning and made a cup of tea and said, “this tea is for me”. Super lame, I know. But I finally felt free and lifted, despite the heart break I was going through. You rock Jamie:) I still love your Spotify
Yes! I think for the first time in my life, I’m happy to be single and to be focusing on me and making myself the best I can be. I’m excited to fall in love with myself rather than someone else.
I used to watch random video from you earlier butttt now I’m super addicted to your videos, your voice and especially your knowledge about makeup. And i too do my makeup when things arent going well. Its the only thing that doesn’t make me feel sad. 🥰
Thank you so much for this Jamie... I just broke up with my long time love and it’s tough... I’m in that place where I’m trying to feel good and uplifted but it’s like I’m lying to myself... I can’t wait to feel better but as they say, time will heal... ❤️ love you! We are so much stronger than we think! Going to do this makeup this weekend!
you got this ❤️
Jamie it is so refreshing to see an Influenster sharing confidence to your TH-cam subscribers.❤️❤️. Girls today are not taught self esteem. Boys too. It’s great to hear your doing just fine. I love the dating yourself. I’ve always believed in that. Your look is bomb AF. Love you Jamie ❣️😘🥰
Obsessed with this video. The self love aspect. The PERFECT makeup aspect. I just love it all. 💛
I never comment although I watch all the time. However I really needed this. I’m 2 months post-breakup and I just called my bestie and said I just want to feel normal and stop thinking about him. You’re correct makeup is helpful!
When I got divorced (almost 6 years ago now) i didnt wear a lot of makeup. I really only started playing with makeup and enjoying it after my divorce. It really helped me boost my confidence and build myself back up from the outside in after a really bittersweet end to a toxic relationship. Sometimes you really just have to fake it till ya make it and playing with makeup really helped me do that
Jamie ❤️. A year ago, pretty much to the day, I also had a break up... We were together for three years. It has been a whirlwind of emotions, and I relate so much to this video. Thanks for handling your personal life with grace in regards to sharing online, you're beautiful inside and out. 🥰
OMG, this is so similar to my own boost of self-love makeup. Btw, I’m glad you’re in a good place now. Break-ups sucks, but they pass. Love you and your videos, Jamie. ♥️✨
I wondered about you two but I didn’t want to ask. Glad you’re feeling better! We’ve all been there. I love this look and the whole concept of making yourself feel more confident and happier through makeup. Also I’ve personally felt you’ve really figured out who you are recently which could be due to age but I wonder if it’s more due to rediscovering yourself post-breakup
I remember when I was in second year of college, I dyed my hair a red ombré during the break. I felt feirce, when I went back to college, the guy I was with and I broke up. I did not have much make up then but I bought a brown lipstick which made me feel even more fierce. It was summer, I switched my jeans to skirts which I didn't wear that often before. With my red hair, brown lipstick and short skirts, I felt I looked like a badass, it compensated how broken I felt but I looked good. I went through another break up a year ago as well. I finally invested in building a make up kit ( I loved makeup ever since I was about six and it's kinda a dream come true ) Even if I'm not going anywhere just playing with make-up makes me feel so much better, like today, thanks to pms I woke up feeling agitated, I'm just sitting in my room with full face of make-up.
I finally invested spending time by myself at 22 without depending on people or a relationship. I've never been so self aware, I feel empowered, strong and slowly accepting myself. Such a great video ❤️
I LOVE the way Jamie says "important" - it's perfect
I read this comment RIGHT when she said important which was pretty magical!
I hear you! I just went through a breakup in January from an almost 3 year relationship, which totally sucks... but I’m starting to feel more like myself and a lot less anxiety lately 🙌🏻 this video was really uplifting 💗
Glad you’re thriving girl 💕 can’t wait to recreate this look! Have an awesome Tuesday!
love you, jamie 🍅 i went through my first breakup 2.5 years ago and it was horrible. we got back together a while after i “fully” healed (if it’s ever fully healed) but i still find comfort in other people’s breakup stories
professor utonium sorry to interrupt but how was your comeback? i got dumped bc he thought he had to do in my depression and somehow i feel like he’s expecting me to feel or be healed to get back? did that happen to you?
okay so I haven't even watched the video yet! BUT! this is exactly how I did my makeup when I was going through a breakup... still kinda going through it but its been a few months and im doing much better!! you're so right that a breakup is the best time to find yourself! been dating myself exclusively and ive never been happier
Jamie you are so damn inspiring! I struggle with serious anxiety and you continue to inspire me every day. I became a makeup artist because of artists like you. I met you at the Nudestix meetup last year & I was so grateful for that experience. Love you always ❤
Hell yes to this video and it’s message! Thank you for being so open with your subscribers.
Hey Jamie!!
I had a 2 yr relationship end mutually and I moved 4 hrs away (for work). I heard a few months later that he was sleeping with 2 of my friends (since our break up). I guess I’m glad I moved away.. omg
I can relate to these makeup therapy videos sm, it’s something that never fails too boost my mood💘
Thank you for posting this Jamie!! I’ve never personally been through a bad breakup but I have gotten heartbroken a lot. So thank you for this and for your wise words. ❤️❤️
You gave such wonderful advice about taking the time to think about what you want and dating yourself. So glad to hear that you're feeling better Jamie and this makeup look is so sultry and pretty!
I am so happy you’re doing much better Jamie. I had been wondering about it for a while but I could never bring myself to ask you, especially when it is none of my business I just really wanted to make sure you were okay. I am joyful for you I think you’re doing a great job at healing. You’re beautiful Jamie and we love you stay positive 💕
Thank you so much Gabriela💕
Obviously I love this entire video, but I especially love the music you have in the background. It’s so soothing to hear that and your voice. You are amazing!!
This just reminded me of my f irst ever breakup and the physical pain that came from the shock, people think it's just sadness, they never talk about the chest pains and the nausea and the endless tunnel of darkness. First time I laughed after not being able to eat for like 3 days was a v strange feeling, doing nice makeup at least helped me feel a bit more confident, even if i had no plans that day.
Your nails are the perfect orange, love! 🍊
