If you are a person of color, do NOT get this sunscreen in the “un tinted” version. The white cast is soooo crazy and I highly don’t recommend. I’m not sure if the tinted version would be better but I just felt like adding that!
The ultralight sunscreen may be better?? The one in more of a tube? I'm also pretty pale so I may not notice the cast being bad. The "AM" one suuuuucks. Breaks me out + white cast. But this tinted one she used broke me out so badly as well 🥵
You’re the most calming person ever for my anxiety. Watching you is like going under a warm blanket and a cup of coffee. I appreciate you for not elevating your voice up and down like some youtubers. ❤️💕
@@jaybates4964 interesting, I've been thinking of getting some cbd oils to try and calm my anxiety. My anxiety attacks and panic attacks were pretty bad for the last month but they're seeming to calm down... watching her definitely helps.
@@SunshineState12 you should. CBD with a hint of THC (just to activate the CBD) helps my anxiety. Right before I know I’m about to have an anxiety attack (like my instigators) I take a bit of it and it helps.
@@jaybates4964 do you feel high with a bit of thc? I really dont like the feeling of being high so that's why I'm interested in cbd, because it doesnt make you high. Do you take the cbd and thc separately or is it infused?
Alex, you crack me up with your "take no prisoners" presentation! And I luv it!! As a 72-yr young girl, I enjoy your suggestions, tutorials and realness! Rock on, cutie!
You should do the opposite- eye makeup that doesn’t need anything else. For people who have really sensitive skin and foundation makes them break out and such! ❤️
I would love this! I don't like the feeling of foundation on my face. And I have only found no-foundation tutorials were they just use concealer all over their face
I watch high-end makeup videos to feel the luxury I could never feel in real life. I watch drugstore makeup videos to learn how to do makeup and what it'll actually look like.
Do you own a single high end make up product? I'm 34 and I never tried one single high end make up product in my life. It's sad, but I just cannot afford the high price tags so I feel you on this. I do the same
while we’re here talking about drugstore stuff, the most underrated product EVER is the covergirl lid lockup eyeshadow primer. i am OILY and this stuff makes my shadow soooo crease-proof
my skin is dry but my lids get super oily.. so does it do the thing when you first apply it when it gets all rough and grainy and patchy looking? or is it smooth? i’ve been looking for a good shadow primer
@@emmanew3226 unless you conceal to brighten your skin than yes it would cover it. But the purpose is to cover up spots. I like to conceal on my acne and then put on my foundation. I do that cuz my concealer is more on the yellow side. It’s hard to match your concealer together when you dab on your spots so it’s best to do it underneath. (The moment I typed in the matching products she literally said that LOL)
You sold me on that tinted Cerave sunscreen with ceramides and niacinamide without even trying. Fuck that looks PERFECT for those 1 step days omfg thanks bro
The "drug store version" is also helpful if you're just learning and not trying to spend hundreds on things you might not like. Ex: I like my brows, would my full face make up look more complete with more defined brows? We're about to find out with this NYX rec!
Or if you just plain cannot afford high end make up at all. I'm 34 and I never once got to try one single high end make up product because I'm poor. Not everyone can afford luxuries like high end make up
This sunscreen is awesome, but there’s 2 massive drawbacks - It’s fragranced as hell and gives me a massive headache, and it BURNS your eyes without mercy
It's so nice that you reference other creators you look at and learn from. Sometimes, it feels really strange when TH-camrs act like they're the authority and don't give credit to others where credit is often due. You never seem to do that and you're always open to suggestions and clearly state what has helped you grow?? When we're learning so much from you???A true humble Queen.
The ELF concealer sponge that you like so much, they have a full size one, its called the marshmallow sponge by ELF!!! Its awesome! Its the EXACT same texture and feeling of the little one.
If you’re looking for a drugstore bronzer/contour stick for olive skin tones I highly recommend the Jordana brand one. They sell them for like $4 and I use mine under and over my foundation. It looks neutral on me but it definitely doesn’t look warm. They have some of Jordana’s stuff on Walgreen’s website/app and they also have their website. Brand was started by the founder of Milani and has been around for years
I hate to tell you this but Jordana closed shop at the end of December. So that sucks. Loved the Light shade. Walgreens still has the contour stick in Medium and Deep right now.
@@starbug3408 I heard. I’m buying my backups from Walgreens, they have some stock left online. They stopped updating their website in the fall so I figured that they were going to cease operations soon
Thanks for the tip on the aquaphor, I have relentlessly dry lips but I’ve been using that for a week and it’s been SOOOO great!! Addictive. Life-changing. Lip-changing. Thank you 😊
I really appreciate that you use neutral light and all of the up-close takes. It just makes me feel so much more confident to see that TH-camRS HAVE SKIN TEXTURE TOO! Sometimes videos can be very deceiving, making you think that perfectly smooth baby-bum-ish skin is the standard Like you suddenly realise that looking human is acceptable ✨
Alex, if you need drugstore options for pale olive skin try the Revolution conceal & define infinite concealers, the Revolution pro or XX Revolution concealers and the Nyx born to glow concealers. a big hug from a pale olive girl from Spain!🤗
Thank you! I kind of left the beauty community for a long time for a lot of reasons, including feeling like it was toxic. I just started easing back into it and I love your channel. You're the only person I watch right now that's not like.. extreme or spfx looks. You're so down to earth and feel genuine. Thanks again! ❤️
I’ve actually been liking a lot of drugstore brushes. I started using all cream products, so my Japanese natural hair brushes are no longer the best choice. For synthetic brushes, I really like the elf ones with the clear handles and some of the real techniques brushes. I think drugstore brushes that are sold individually are often better than the ones in sets. That’s my opinion.
Yeeeeahhh, and slightly less pigmented..? Right? I think it was a little softer and more dimensional maybe? Still gorge, but yeah, I wonder why they changed it 🤔
@@AlexandraAnele I think so! It had like a slight sheen of gold glitter kinda? I remember going to like every rite aid to try and find it back in the day lol
Same here 😂. Listing down the recommendations. I find it hard to find my shade since all the store in our country is not allowing testers anymore due to the pandemic. I found a website to get my shades with new products by putting in a product that works for me, the site is Findation.com
you really are one of the only beauty channels that ACTUALLY posts makeup tutorials, tips, advice, etc. I don't know how you come up with literally endless tips/advice, all of which are *ACTUALLY USEFUL*. Not only that, but you are both calming and interesting to watch---I feel like we are hanging out and chatting during your videos. Super unique and you are the best, idk how you don't have mils of subs
It is a testament to your skill that you made that contour color work! I’m also fair olive and when you swatches it I thought it would turn out straight up red 😦 I’ve found the best contour color for me is actually an eyeshadow (Crixus from Devinah) because it’s a nice green-toned brown
You have got to try the #7 triple powder. It is a dupe for Charlotte Tilbury’s finishing powder. I have both and you can’t tell the difference. Also the elf $2 brow pencil in white container is better than most high end pencils. The elf primer bronzer and blushes are great. The best bronzer at drug store is the Milani silk bronzer. Amazing. The new eco tools brushes are phenomenal. The blender and any of the stippling brushes. That elf highlighter look great!
I’ve been subscribed to you for a while. Just here to say, thank you. Thank you for being authentic. You don’t try to grab the attention of others by over editing or being like every other influencer. You caught my attention immediately by just being yourself & I really appreciate that. I also think it’s cool to see you keep growing because when I subscribed you at around 500k. Thank you also for being so helpful and giving us constant tips. Just showing you some love.
Okay i dont know if this is your intention but i love your natural editing and the fact that you dont use filters..the fact that you talk with such honesty and authenticity is so nice to see🤍also can we appreciate how you can literally SEE the powder setting the foundation with this lightning?? Top tier. Thank you
I don't care weather a TH-camr is using high-end and or drugstore. I'm beyond obsessed with makeup and I like to find makeup in my collection that is similar to a product that a TH-camr is using and by doing that it actually gets me to go through my makeup and throw out, out dated old makeup. I loved this video and your last video. Use products that make you comfortable, I will always watch your videos. 💞
I know this isn’t specifically an under eye circles video, but I know that’s a challenge for you. Strangely enough, the only two things that I am self conscious about are the two things that you seem to be as well, I have VERY dark circles, and a very slight slightly crooked nose. Beyond the point....BUT there’s this one foundation that I use AS A CONCEALER (which I think is actually stage makeup because of how crazy the coverage is). The brand is Joe Blasco. It’s not cheap, there is not a huge selection, HOWEVER!!!! The thing I think that you’d appreciate is that they have 2 olive specific collections. I’ve never seen anyone ever review/use this brand and I would love for someone to try out some of their products and give their opinion. Actually something I’d really love to see is a video on lesser known brands in general. Anyway, I know that was long, sry.
I have respect for anyone with the dedication to do the full 6+ step base system, w. all the contouring you young lasses do. When I learned makeup, just concealer + foundation + powder was the norm - & I even powder _only_ my nose, to stay dewy. If I can make my skin look even + my eye sockets roughly the same shade as that, I'm happy. My bone structure's pretty pronounced due to Baltic heritage, anyway.
Thank you for this version! I appreciate this version better because I'm 34 and I never owned one high end product in my life because I just can't afford them. My whole make up "collection" is affordable drugstore products. I wish I could at least try high end, but God are they expensive and I just don't have the extra money!! I wish you had more drugstore make up tutorials available because I love your videos and techniques. That's my only "complaint."
you drew the first hair with the eyebrow pen and it instantly looked like that hair was just already there. It was like movie-magic seamless natural. im buying that.
You're so good at listening to subscribers and consistently cranking out high quality content! You're like really good at this whole youtube influencer thing lol.
You‘re my favourite englisch speaking person on TH-cam. Always real talk, no drama, funny.....love this ! Also have the same struggle with my light olive skin tone. Grrrrr. By recommandation of a german TH-camr I tried the „ALGENIST REVEAL Concentrated Color Correcting Drops“ in GREEN and I really get good matches now. Maybe also something for you? Bleib so, wie du bist ❤️ Greetings from Germany 🤗
The morphe contour sticks are actually pretty good btw! That's the one I use, I'm a light medium warm olive tone. But they do have good lighter ones! Check em out! Also any tips on how to not get sunscreen in your eyes by the end of the day? Maybe the spf sticks for around the eyes? I don't apply it too close but somehow by the end of the day out of no where, my eyes burn to fuck and back... halp! 😆
I love that on almost every video you use sunscreen unlike most TH-camrs who just go on caking and caking. Such a good habit you're promoting right there!
Well done! In the past I've been lucky enough to afford high-end beauty products -- now it's not an option (though life is SO much better in other ways!). It's silly to pretend that "you get what you pay for" isn't often true. BUT, knowing what to buy instead & how to use it -- priceless!
If you are a person of color, do NOT get this sunscreen in the “un tinted” version. The white cast is soooo crazy and I highly don’t recommend. I’m not sure if the tinted version would be better but I just felt like adding that!
The ultralight sunscreen may be better?? The one in more of a tube? I'm also pretty pale so I may not notice the cast being bad. The "AM" one suuuuucks. Breaks me out + white cast.
But this tinted one she used broke me out so badly as well 🥵
Preach. I've used it as face paint for a tiger costume lol.
I can’t imagine how bad it would be on actual dark skin bc I’m already pale and the white cast makes me look sick
Yeah I remember seeing some brown/dark skinned POC YTers review the tinted version and...it was a no. 👎
yeah im very pale but it made me blue. absolutely abhorrent.
So random but you'd have been perfect as Tecna from Winx
omg ur right, she'd look great in pinks and greens!
omg that's so random and specific but like totally true??
I hate the cast they picked for winx. Such disappointment
Tbh I always Imagined Tecna’s personality to be like Alex’s 🤭😲
@@nereidetriton443 welp, bloom and stella look amazing... the rest is rlly nah(

Yes I love her realness. It's rare and beautiful
Actually, she doesn’t need those. She is freaking beautiful with or without makeup.

Thank you!!! I’m always looking for a great shadow primer for oily lids.
very true - that’s a good one
This does not work for me, but I have dry skin, so maybe that's why??

I find concealing spots UNDER foundation cures the matching issue.
Yeah but doesn't the foundation hide all the work you've done?
@@emmanew3226 doesn't it just go on top tho, like the foundation shouldn't remove the concealer

Agreed. The shade and formula looks great on her! I use the tinted Elta MD and maybe I’ll reach for the tinted CeraVe next! Sold!
Agreed. I need a solid one step.
Love CeraVe products
WHEN SHE SAID “IM NOT ENGAGED BUT LIKE I APPRECIATE ITT” CHILDD I DUN LOST ITTT😂😂😂
OMFG "I appreciate the allegations on my engagement, so thank you!" Got me cracking up

The neutrogena hydro boost spf 50 is imo the best drugstore sunscreen. It’s a gel and it doesn’t leave a cast. Definitely recommend!
This sunscreen is awesome, but there’s 2 massive drawbacks - It’s fragranced as hell and gives me a massive headache, and it BURNS your eyes without mercy
@@skincarewithaustin yeah spf 50 would probably burn
If you want the perfect bronzer for olive undertones the meybelline city bronzers are AMAZING.
Plz do more with another brands like essence.. Maybelline.. Catrice.. L'oreal..
Coz elf or NYX aren't available in my country..
Pretty sure she uses them bc they are cruelty free and honestly the best at the drug store. Honestly nyx isn’t drug store priced at all.
It's so nice that you reference other creators you look at and learn from.

5:33 used your left eye as reference for some acrylic paint shenanigans. Love your channel and hope you have a beautiful life!
Yaaaas I’ve been waiting for this one , TURN IT UP!
😂❤️❤️❤️
That contour stick made your already flawless cheekbones pop even MORE!!
I love how your titles are like stream of consciousness
Same
Yes, omg
Thank you for this version! I appreciate this version better because I'm 34 and I never owned one high end product in my life because I just can't afford them. My whole make up "collection" is affordable drugstore products. I wish I could at least try high end, but God are they expensive and I just don't have the extra money!! I wish you had more drugstore make up tutorials available because I love your videos and techniques. That's my only "complaint."
Concealing is now called “Wayne Gossing” in this household 😎
You gotta Wayne goss that shit
Tweezerman makes a great eyelash curler, I got mine at Target a few years back. Great video! 🤗
would it be good for small eyes?
@@HH-yz7vx I have small eyes and it works great☺️
“And you can obviously skip this step if you don’t have dark circles”
who? *where?*
Damn those people 😩😂
I don't have them but instead I have hereditary eye bags 🙃
Mee
I've never had dark circles. I definitely have eye bags, but even my eyebags don't really have color. I definitely have terrible skin though. 😅
I like this version better then the high end products. I think it might be the highlighter!
Check out the shopmissa contour sticks for a really good affordable option... they're literally a dollar and have amazing tones for fairer skin.
you drew the first hair with the eyebrow pen and it instantly looked like that hair was just already there. It was like movie-magic seamless natural.
im buying that.
Best tutorials out there! You never disappoint 🥳😇
😭 Thank you Reese! ❤️
Wayne Goss and you are two of my favourite artists, wearable and beautiful makeup tutorials
Love from Oman
“It’s okay I complained about you”👏🏻
As someone who IS an mua, and loves pro products, I also work at a drugstore as a cosmetologist. So the NYX brow pens are BOMB! I have every color!
I've been waiting patiently for this since that video, you never disappoint 🖤
😘❤️
You're so good at listening to subscribers and consistently cranking out high quality content! You're like really good at this whole youtube influencer thing lol.
The airspun highlighters are stunning! You should give them a try
You‘re my favourite englisch speaking person on TH-cam. Always real talk, no drama, funny.....love this ! Also have the same struggle with my light olive skin tone. Grrrrr. By recommandation of a german TH-camr I tried the „ALGENIST REVEAL Concentrated Color Correcting Drops“ in GREEN and I really get good matches now. Maybe also something for you?
Bleib so, wie du bist ❤️
Greetings from Germany 🤗
ALEX! You're literally the only makeup channel I still watch 😯 thanks for the tips brooo. Would you recommend the brushes overall?
I actually like this one more! Looks more natural and less products in the fine lines and wrinkles under the eyes! ☺️🥰💫
The morphe contour sticks are actually pretty good btw! That's the one I use, I'm a light medium warm olive tone. But they do have good lighter ones! Check em out! Also any tips on how to not get sunscreen in your eyes by the end of the day? Maybe the spf sticks for around the eyes? I don't apply it too close but somehow by the end of the day out of no where, my eyes burn to fuck and back... halp! 😆
Idk where I’ve been and why your channel was never recommended to me during the quarantine, but I found your channel now and I love you!
Drugstore eyelash curler: Tweezerman 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
I love that on almost every video you use sunscreen unlike most TH-camrs who just go on caking and caking. Such a good habit you're promoting right there!
Literally my favourite videos to watch on TH-cam ❤ love from Greece
😭 Thank you so much love 🙏🏼❤️❤️❤️
Well done! In the past I've been lucky enough to afford high-end beauty products -- now it's not an option (though life is SO much better in other ways!). It's silly to pretend that "you get what you pay for" isn't often true. BUT, knowing what to buy instead & how to use it -- priceless!
