Every single one of your "How to ____" videos is a free masterclass on makeup and YT does not appreciate you enough
😭🙌🏼🙏🏼
Alexandra Anele I love you Alex!! Thank you so much for evolving my makeup game 😩😭🥺🥺
Yes!!!
Christy W seriously, I’m taking notes as a working makeup artist!
Emily Boling that’s dedication right there
the attention span line got me 🤣👌 love your videos they're so clear and there's no distracting background music. Will be sure to try out your tips.
Omg I needed this! You have helped me so much so thank you. You are a life saver! Don't ever hesitate to post this type of video because you do help. I know this 39 year old beginner appreciates it.
Sooooo helpful and so well done because you explain so well which I have not seen even pros which you are top notch! You have an ability I don’t think you know you have and your voice is so calm and pleasant. I feel you are the unsung artist! You are soooooo talented and stunning⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I’ve never heard it explained this beautifully. I think I finally get it. Thank you so much 😊💕
Wow. Super helpful material. Thank you. Will apply your contouring technique for sure.
SOOO helpful! & you made me make sense of why i usually hate how i look when someone else does my makeup- change of views from someone looking at us and looking at ourselves. I have a round face (or at least that's what i see) but ironically i hate contouring! i feel like it only makes me look rounder so i use bronzer instead and it works for me better than contour.
Thank you for doing this video and I did learn a lot heck I now understand what contouring actually means for me. ❤️❤️
Best contour video I’ve seen! Amazing tips and super clear thank you 😊
Yayyy 1st comment!! Love you and your videos ❤️❤️❤️❤️
😘❤️
You are so similar to me in skin tone and face shape it’s so helpful
...to your point, I highlight my philtrum because it is deep, so I like to make it a little softer. :)
best how to ever!
This video is fye girl.
YES YOU TRULY ARE CUTE !!!!!!!!!!
Watch her grow in followers right abouttttt now
Thanks so much for this video!! 👏🏼👏🏼🙌🏼
I cannot believe the artistic talent, the depth of knowledge, the fine detail of your clear conscious awareness of how you apply makeup.
Well, first of all I always appreciate you comments. But this has to be one of the great compliments ever. Cause when I'm filming it doesn't feel clear at all 😂
@@AlexandraAnele Trust me your videos flow seamlessly and are full of accomplishable results through your practical approach and easy to follow guidance :)
Right shes got such eloquence, I can tell she knows what she's talking about!
You're such a smart women I love it!!!
Totally agree! Just found her channel and love it so much!
i like how she just like goes straight into the point and it’s not like edited like with music and bubbles and stuff.Its rlly like...calming??
Arta okohvan It’s like the opposite of Jackie Aina
you seem rlly like...unsure??
Yup i love that❤
All that product she’s sacrificing for us, she must really want us looking snatched 👌🏽❤️ I appreciate!
😂 I’m here for you ❤️
Wtf
ok believe it or not, I saw this video yesterday and tried this technique here (for my faceshape, more like oval) + your nose contour techique today and I got compliment from a stranger for how pretty I look (like in real life) FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE wtf!!! thank you haha!
Omg that's so awesome girl!!!!
Mara Oliver why?
Which country..?
I love the absolute refusal of you to start your videos the way everyone else starts their videos haha
I've always had a hard time figuring out what my face shape even is
Sean Ian
I think you have a medium heart shape 🤔 maybe? Idk
Sean Ian same
You and me both!
Sean Ian ME TOO
Look at yourself in the mirror and trace the outside of your face on the mirror with a dry erase marker! That helped me
Went to beauty school and learned almost nothing except to set your makeup and some special effects makeup.
I should’ve just gave you my tuition because I have learned so much.
So, excited to try makeup on diff face shapes now
@Mara Oliver Many beauty schools only touch a small portion and cover what they need to for you to pass state tests. Which is really sad since a good amount of money goes into it and we're not really taught that much.
@@elizabethwoodyard5498 youtube is your new beauty school now
@@briannaex8627 lol no kidding, I remember the professors would give us time to watch TH-cam videos to learn that way instead, but I am not complaining 😂
I don’t know if this comment is going to make sense, and I hope you don’t take this the wrong way, but I’m actually a fan of your videos. Like good job but that’s just my opinion.
You're such a dick
I’m so confused lol
@@Shophiamondar2 😆😆
@graenolf is her brother.
@@ruchakshatriya2173 😂😂
not gonna lie, he had me at the first half
You+ally art taught me more about makeup than all of TH-cam. Everyone is trying to look the same now
Maryam Bangura Same! They are my two favorites and they’re very informative
That was absolutely unique I am pretty darn old and with a sunken in face and sunken in eyes that was such a big help I'm going to start putting light colors in those sunken in places thank you so much so great video all of yours are💟
Yes, Aly Art is also amazing!
right, everyones just doing the same makeup looks and using the same techniques without trying to make it individual to them and their features...i really want makeup to enhance and work with what I already have
Yes exactly!!! Everyone's just blindly following trends, the whole lifted eyes, big lips not going to be flattering for everyone😕
“I like to contour my double chin”
😶
GIRL WHERE
i think beauty gurus nowadays say : ' you need to use this product to achieve this look.' but what the people actually need is: ' I can show you HOW to achieve a look.' . And this is what this girl is doing. No special product, no high end fashion, just information, skill and knowledge transfer. I'm absolutely in love
I recently found your channel and I can’t stop watching! Not only are you so freaking funny, but you’re very smart about makeup techniques. 🙌🏼❤️
😭 Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️
Don't forget beautiful...
@@elizabethferdinand8553 Oh stop, you flirt 😘😂
Savannah Knight YES I just started watching her and subscribed for the same reasons! Lol every little comment is so funny . But she’s super smart and talented! I’m so entertained!! 💖🙌🏼🔥
You are literally the beauty tutorial guru I’ve been waiting years for! You are such an amazing communicator and your examples are so helpful. Thank you so much!
You're a breath of fresh air! We all started watching tutorials to learn this stuff but got caught up in drama and tea, and it's nice to just sit back and actually learn for once.
I just want to thank you for posting true tutorials. Vs people claiming it’s a tutorial but really it’s trying new makeup and doing the same exact thing every time.
Shannon Doe giiirrrll...yes! ditto
Her at 6:18 : "Does that make sense?"
Me: *nods*
Lol
One of THE most underrated TH-camrs ever honestly. You're so detailed yet so easy to follow. Thanks so much sis ❤️
I just closed my Pinterest tab because I got bored while I was searching for countouring (all the pins are same) then opened YT and saw your video. Now I'm going to erase all my cheeks and jaw. Thank you'
I love how normal you speak! Like you're talking to a friend, instead of your "audience" Thanks for sharing your tips 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
That contour shade you are using is so perfect for you it literally looks like a shadow!
So incredibly helpful! I’ve watched/read so many contouring tutorials since the first ABH contour palette came out and no one has broken it down by actual face AREAS. It’s actually helpful and made me finally “get” what’s right for my own unique face shape.
Also wanted to thank you for all the fair olive skin videos, I’m not olive but my sister is and has always had a hard time figuring out her “witchy” undertones as she calls them 😂
😂 That's a good way to describe it. So glad this vid has helped! ❤️
every time you post I have one less reason to cry
😭 this comment thooooooo
Can’t believe it’s taken TH-cam this long to recommend your channel! 😱 Thank you for taking the time to entertain and educate us with your beauty tips! Instant subscribe! 😍❤️💄
I'm very self conscious about my face.im 63 year's old.im quite fascinated by the way you have demonstrated how to contour different facial shapes..I'm going to try this technique myself.thank you for making this video.
Girl I LOVE your videos, especially when you teach!!! I don’t want a 2 min video. I want details. I want all the info I can soak up from you!! Please keep giving us educational videos!!! From basics, to some Pat McGrath eye looks!!! Please, please, please!!! And thank you!! Your videos DO HELP!!! And they ARE GOOD!!! 😘😘😘😘
PLEASE CONTINUE THESE "HOW TO'S!!!! "
This is by far the most informative video I've seen regarding contouring. I'm subscribing!! 😍 now checking out the rest of your videos 😊 XO.
😭 Thanks babe! ❤️
One of the hardest parts of contouring my face evenly is that the left side of my jaw is bigger than the right so ya girl is STRUGGLING
Is it because you chew more on one side?
@@Durka-Durka interesting theory, im not entirely sure if chewing affects your facial muscle but it is plausible
this video is exactly what I needed, it´s PERFECT. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us
I used to do this every day. Thing is...make up fades throughout the day unless you think about it constantly and touch it up constantly 😂 so when you don’t have the time for that...well, one minute you got some killer cheekbones and an hour later...you’re an egg again hahah
I remember people with different face shapes contouring the same because Kim Kardashian made it a trend or something. Super helpful! Luv u 👶🏻😘
“I mean, it is warped! F*ck mirrors” is perfect.
Thanks for this. I am old and have never known how to do any of this
Can I just thank you for starting your recordings without your makeup on. You are a beautiful young woman with a beautifully ‘normal’ face. As someone with BDD, it makes me feel so ugly when I’m constantly bombarded with images of impossibly perfect people (clearly not natural). You are helping people in more ways than you can imagine and possibly intended. Thank you from my heart to yours 🙏❤️
You: "I dont know if it's helpful"
Me: IT IS HELPFUL!!!
I like that you really teach how to do it personally, not just saying things for every face uniformly like:
"use contour and draw 3 on your face"
like that is what I've known for years, without really knowing "WHY?"
I just discovered your channel and I have to say im so happy to get ACTUAL REAL MAKEUP TIPS!! along with Robert welsh Wayne Goss you are now another favorite 😚..this video helped ALOT!! Merci 👍🏾😚
Me: Usually hates when anyone drops compliments about themselves and feels internally compelled to squinty-eye judge.
Alexandra Anele seriously just so genuine and likable: "I have a tiny cute face"
Me: Aww yeah, you do! :)
weird question: if i really like my forehead shape, would it look weird if i just contoured only my cheekbones and jawline and just didn't touch my forehead at all??
I think you could just use it very closely to hairline just to harmonise the colour and shades of your face:)
I've always wondered this too
i would add a touch of bronzer like bacdvg g said close to your hairline, it will just add some dimension and pull it all together without changing your forehead shape
By far the most helpful video I’ve seen in the 12 years I’ve been watching beauty TH-cam. Well done!! Now I understand how to work my heart shaped face better 🥰
😭🙏🏼 So glad it's helped ❤️
This is so awesome to watch! I just love how you can do all the different face shapes and I actually saw them change your face just as you explained... you are so beautiful Alex.. love your videos ❤️👏🏻❤️👏🏻❤️👏🏻❤️
This is, by far, the most helpful contour video I've seen! I have (for me) a very hard face to contour, and I can't relate to other people's faces and videos.
I know this is 1 year old so I get if you don't see this comment. But thank you so much!!!
(Sorry for my grammar, English is not my first language).
First ever makeup artist that I can understand :< been watching your vids since last night and I can't stop 💖 we have the same first name too ❤️ YT needs to appreciate u more :(((
„So this is how you make your forehead look smaller"
Me: laughs in bangs
Thank you SO MUCH for teaching me how to paint *MY FACE*, not how to copy a person's technique who has little or no resemblance to me. THANK YOU.
I adore you. You're so genuine and I love your subtle humor.
i just subscribed, your explanation is amazing. you have a profound knowledge. Thank you
I always get confused about my face shape. Sometimes i think is heart shape, and sometimes i is kinda round but with a square vibe on the sides😅. So i do the less contouring cause i think it might look weird if i do to much.
That was very useful but I'm still trying to find out how to contour a small forehead to make it look bigger. People with large foreheads seem to be really upset about it, but when it is too small for the rest of your face it's still creates a very unflattering imbalance
If there was an exam on makeup, i would love to have her as my teacher. She makes everything seem so easy and explains it so well!!!!
I have a weird shape. So, basically, I have kind of a long but it’s not narrow. And my sides are flat (like the cheeks) my chin is somewhat round but it also has a bit of a point.
Finally, a non ditsy "oh ma gawd welcome back to my like totally cool channel, like um, I love you all like um so much AND WITHOUT FURTHER A'DO LET'S JUMP RIGHT IN" make up channel. Thought this day would never come.
So glad to also have not heard "Tap off the excess" every 3 seconds.
your videios are most helpful!! Many Many Thanks! I love you
This is what I’ve been looking for in every makeup video I’ve ever watched. Thank you!
U are so amazing. Like seriously. The best make up tutorial I've ever seen. Please don't stop making this 🥺😭.
Bless, this is the best contouring video out there holy hell.
Thank you!!!
🙌🏼 Hope it helps! ❤️❤️❤️
Very helpful I've never seen anyone explain conture this good I mean freakin good.😲🦋
I can finally learn makeup! For someone that has ADD this is priceless!!!! You get to the point and actually show us how! Thank you! 💕 just found your channel! 🙏🏻😊
Holy moly! Your videos are LITTERALLY THE BEST! You are so knowledgeable and helpful! Thank you so much for all of your hard work!! It helps us all SO much!! Thank you! Thank you!!!😊✌💚🙏
This is bloody amazing, wish I had seen this video years and years ago! You are genuinely the best beauty guru to follow and so inclusive with the things you teach x
We have super similar faceshapes so I'm rly excited watching ur videos. My cheeks r just a lil fuller when I smile is all
Love your videos! You are so right; everything start at getting to know your face shape and then, determine what areas you want to bring out and the ones needing to be unseen or blurred. As an artist you have that knowledge in your inner being; for us we need a lot of teaching; so thank you Alex! 🥰
😭 thank you love! I hope this helps! ❤️
Your video's are always so informative I lean so much and I finally think I know how to contour my new 56lbs less face to look more like a 80lbs loss. lol BUT I have still to find a video that can help me hide my very weird special totally wrong dark circles/hollows.
I just found this channel and we have a similar face shape, eye shape and skin tone. My life just became 200% easier
Hi from Canada. You do these videos because you really care. For that I am grateful. I respect and adore you. Your fan completely, Sativa
I love how real you are! Most beauty TH-camrs put on a fake voice or personality, but you are so expressive and honest! Definitely subscribed! I love how detailed and helpful this video is 💕
After all this Corona crap is done, a class in person by you would be awesome. Your explanations are on point.
i seriously love you. you're clearly very knowledgeable about makeup, and you're doing a great job educating us!! i appreciate it so much because, you're not only showing and doing, but explaining why it's significant to do this and that. thank you :')
edit: also i love your voice and i think you're very pretty with and without makeup! your videos makes it feel like i'm talking to a friend.
Ok I have to jump in again. I have been so SO self conscious of my double chin recently. I didn't know people with really, imo, perfect faces have that too. This is like the realization that even slim people have cellulite. I still hate that I have it, but I feel so much better and less freak-ish (not the good kind lol). This video is my absolute golden find of the past few weeks
I have never looked so beautiful in my entire life!!! This is so life changing, thank you so much!!
I don’t mind watching the ads for her
I’m obsessed with your channel. I have pale olive skin and a heart shaped face so it’s SO hard to find tutorials and products that work for me
Not enough youtubers that I can relate to 😩
"i mean it is warped! fuck mirrors" LMAO
Giiiirl! This is sooooo freaking helpful!! You’re the best 💕
Which brush does she use
And really informative video 👍
Honestly. This. Is. Everything. Yes def extremely helpful. I’ve gotten so tired of extreme vagueness and no being able to find any thing that is actually teaching in depth, love this
Is your background pink, or is it a pink LED light cast on the screen or wall behind you babe? Obsessed with your videos!
This is THE BEST contouring video I’ve seen. Thank you for your time and work👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
😭 thank you so much babe! ❤️❤️❤️
To be honest, this is the best contour explanation video I have seen and it helps me so much🙊 I just started to try to contour and now I know a lot more, thank you
You’re so well versed.. You don’t need to rely on the habit of “if that makes sense?” after every valid idea. It’s self-deprecating and undermines your worthy points.. It’s okay to own what you know, especially when you’re sharing your own experience. My first year as a nurse, I’d end every statement speaking to patients like that.. “It’s usually easier to eat soup with a spoon, instead of a fork.. If that makes sense?” Or even to my higher ups.. “I needed to piggyback that, so he didn’t his bowels, if that makes sense?”
Sis, it makes sense to you, and you did your diligence, then that’s why we’re all watching. Be your sassy and brassy self
Now if I knew my face shape this video would really help
at 1:01 when you try to push your hair back lol, me after i had long hair and cut it short
"what i need is a brush that i do not have"
-Confucious probably
😂😂😂😂😂
finally i was tired of lookin like a potatoe
I always struggle with the placement for bronzer and blush. I basically place blush over bronzer 😅 It would be very nice to see a similar tutorial like this for blush and bronzer 🙈
