I feel like your channel is the most authentic on TH-cam. no sponsorships, no bs, excessive ads, etc. Just straight honesty! 1st channel I ever subscribed to!
I'm a nurse and I started watching TH-cam because I love makeup and it was a way to learn and de-stress. I found you a long while back and was instantly drawn to your honesty and genuine nature. You have no idea the makeup I purchased only because of a favorable review from you! The reason I say this is because an Emily review is not like other TH-cam reviews because you actually play around with the products and use them over time before you let us know the pro's and con's. I love that you do that! I can't tell you how many times I've walked past the CoverGirl Super sizer mascara! I seen you rave and rave in video after video and finally bought it and it did not disappoint! Milani Supreme Kohl Kajal eyeliner is another of the many examples of Emily made me buy it and now it's in my favorites. Thank you for making my stressful life easier for a few minutes at a time!
Tia Kuntz , I totally started watching makeup tutorials and especially Emily's as a mom who spent many months in the NICU. It was such a great destressor! Then the nurses and I would inevitably start talking makeup.
Emily, you are the most underrated beauty guru on TH-cam. Your channel is so good it should have 2 million subscribers. Love how real you are and how informative you are. xoxo Deb
+MrsTheDoll I agree!I can't wait for her to hit 1M her and JenLuv'sReviews and Bailey B are super informative and honest. All 3 are underrated all 3 are my faves :)
+MrsTheDoll I agree! I watch every video Emily uploads...she is the best! I like honest youtubers, many people here on youtube just try to sell stuff for companies...I really feel that Emily works for her viewers and tries to pass on the best possible advice to us!
I feel like if more people put out respectful informative videos like this, rather than bashing products, that the companies could actually use this as constructive criticism, improve their products, make more money, while making customers happy. if I worked for nyx I would be watching this video and take notes because this is what the people want lol but makeup companies sadly only want to work with those that praise their products and turn their cheek to those who have great insight. great video! hope to see more in this series.
+Tess M thank you for watching! I have been surprised to hear from a few brands here & there who have actually thanked me for my positive AND negative feedback on products- it was really refreshing! Granted, it doesn't happen often... but I do think more brands are starting to use social media feedback to their benefit and take it into consideration with future products or changes. Still, like you said- it's discouraging when some brands seem to have blinders on and only seek non-stop promotion.
Exactly! I think it's very important for a brand to know what they need to improve on and how to do it. They'd definitely get more money and support. I see many gurus kissing these brands butts for free products. It's crazy. With some of these brands if you say anything bad about them you're on their Public Enemy #1 list.
I swear by the NYX HD Studio Photogenic Loose Finishing Powder in Translucent. I used to use all the fancy shmancy ones from Sephora but once I tried the NYX one I never looked back! I've repurchased it 3 times so far. Best powder ever.
Elf cosmetics? Urban Decay? Sephora Brand? Ulta Brand? I always love you're trying to come up with unique video ideas and this is why you're one of my favorites.
I work as a service associate at a local grocery store and one day a mother came up to the counter to check yet; she was purchasing some Wet N' Wild lipsticks for her daughter who just started getting into makeup and had been watching a lot of TH-cam videos. We started talking about it and how her daughter hasn't really learned that less is more yet, especially for a 13 year old, and I admitted that I spend a majority of my time watching TH-cam as well. Before she left I wrote down your channel and recommended it for her daughter and she was very thankful. I love recommending your channel because I can be sure that it will help just about anyone no matter their skill level and because I have learned so much from watching your channel :)
My niece is turning 16 soon and she asked for makeup so I made her a basket and I also told her to watch your videos to learn some tips.I feel Like you are the easiest to understand because you explain technique and products so well. You truly deserve all the best in your life and career.
You have, without a doubt, the most informative and helpful videos! You never just say "I love/hate this." You actually say WHY and I love that. I have bought (and loved) several products you've talked about since I started watching your videos. I really appreciate the information!
I suggested this via Snapchat after the last video in this series, but I don't think +emilynoel83 saw it. I think sometimes their inboxes get flooded and they lose msgs. I think Wet n Wild would be a great brand for this, they have come such a long way!
I am 43 and am just now getting back into make up. The boys have grown up a little and now its time for momma to be pretty again. Would LOVE to see a video of your recommendations for a beginners kit. From brushes to primers, and concealers to shadow and everything in between. Sometimes when I walk into Ulta or even the drugstore, I get overwhelmed and walk out with nothing. I so respect your views and knowledge and know you could guide me, as well as others, in the right direction. Thanks, and your videos are always so enjoyable and relaxing to watch.
NYX stay matte but not flat is my holy grail powder as has been for years even since I first heard you mention it in a video. I'm so grateful for that! I still don't think that gets enough love
Emily, your success here on TH-cam is admirable. Sometimes I see other channels (not to bash) with 2 million subscribers and think to myself, these videos are not that interesting or informative... however, they may have done some attention grabbing in other ways, either click bait, or doing certain collabs with brands that got them more exposure, etc. However, with you I can always tell your subscribers are truly invested in what you do... people who consistently watch and appreciate. I think the take home lesson here is slow and steady wins the race, you've done all of this in an honest way, always with integrity. I admire you a lot. Multiple times I have mentioned you to friends and family who ask me for makeup advice... and I will tell them: whenever you want to buy a product, you should really see if Emily has reviewed it first. Keep up the great work :-)
Thank you so much Emily - for real though, I feel like your channel is just so GENUINE. Like I'm sitting down with my best friend gabbing about make up. Not overproduced, not over sponsored, not super high end - just a normal person talking about normal makeup products in a fun an interesting way. KUDOS. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
+Kayleen Weaver Thank you so much!! This makes my heart smile :D I feel like you get me and the whole purpose behind my channel. Really really lucky to have awesome viewers like you!
+emilynoel83 I think as a mom I can relate (I have 2 - 2.5y and 7mo) and it is just so refreshing to see someone like you. Been following since before Belle was born :) and I can't help but watch EVERY DAY! Just love it. So happy to see your channel growing and thriving
I love your lip color. I loved it so much, i had to run to ulta and asked the associate for nyx high vualtage. she dident know what i was talking about. I went home sad and empty handed. I did a little research and found out that they change the name to turnt up lip stick (apparently it sounds to similar to one of cat von d's lipsticks)! OMG!!!! i went back and bought all 3. Just in case anyone was looking for these lipsticks.
Well get ready for more joy! You bring me joy and even though I'm legally blind, makeup has brought me joy too! And with your help, you have brought me rekindled joy in getting up and getting my 50x mirror and going for it! Just the other day I got a compliment on my makeup in the store by a woman in the cosmetic aisle even tho I can't wear mascara! As an RN I ALWAYS wore a full face of makeup and after my incident, I essentially gave up! But thanks to you, I got back into makeup and "perfected" a newer fresher look using lots of your recommendations! I may not be "as good" as I once was, trying and not giving up has changed my life since! I want to try and use mascara again but need tips in falsies for glass wearers and I'm set! Thanks Emily for being real, honest, and truly my inspiration! 💋
Emily, you have by far the best beauty videos out there!! Every single idea and video is a hit for me. I think you could do a video discussing carpet samples or watching paint dry, and I would still love it! You're the best!!
You're such a doll, Emily! You are the most thorough, honest, professional, trustworthy resource on TH-cam in the beauty category. I truly trust your opinions and reviews and I appreciate all of your hard work!! Thank YOU!! Xoxo
I talk about you to my daughter like we're friends!! I think she thinks I'm nuts but I do feel that way. You were one of the first TH-cam Beauty Gurus I started watching and you're the only one I RELIGIOUSLY still watch and look forward to!! I trust what you say and I know you'll tell it like it is. xoxoxo
Susan's Faves ...I'm the same way. Emily was my first beauty guru subscription way back when and I've always followed her on here. She's turned me on to some wonderful products over the years! Emily is just wonderful, I have no idea why she doesn't have 7 or 8 million subbies by now.
I remember watching her starters makeup kit a few years ago when I wanted to start wearing makeup. Best recommendations I could've started with and incredibly affordable! I've passed on Emily's channel to so many of my friends who recently had the urge to wear makeup and they subscribed after that first video. Emily is just an amazing person and such an honest beauty guru. She comes up with the best ideas for videos and is genuine. BEST BEAUTY GURU!
Loving the Top 5 Bottom 5 idea! It's amazing to see it all in one video! Your makeup look is extra stunning today! I am going to have to pick up those high voltage lipsticks in the shades you mentioned. GORGEOUS! Huge hugs! Candice
Literally this woman is the only person I would watch and listen to past 5 min. She's awesome. I feel like she gets to the point. So many beauty gurus draaaggg
The NYX Micro brow is AWSOME! thanks to you I saved money and I'm happy cause it worked on my eyebrows. I have thick dark eyebrows but with age I have notice less hair on them, ( not as full as they use to be ) so I tried some products but it always looked over done! With this pencil I just touch on the spots that I need and it looks natural I LOVE IT thanks to your recommendation I don't have to spend all of that money on the Anastasia one. Love ya Emily xo
I really enjoy this series and the way you don't focus strictly on high end. Most of us can't afford high end so it's nice to know what's hot, what's not. I'd love to see you do this with Elf, Jordana, or Wet &Wild. Thanks ❤️
I absolutely love your channel, it has been a favourite of mine since I discovered the world of TH-cam back in 2011 maybe? I was always so inspired by the way your described products and your wealth of knowledge! I describe you as a Beauty Encyclopedia, and even though your channel continues to grow you are the same approachable person I started watching years ago! I also love how creative you are, so many great video ideas and concepts! Inspired me to to Palette Bingo!
Fave primer: Nyx Born to Glow illuminating primer. I feel like it does a good job of creating a nice base while also providing a bit of a glow, albeit a very subtle one.
For another top & bottom 5, I'd love to see Elf or Wet n Wild! Anymore I use mostly internet brands & indie brands, but alot of the drugstore stuff I find myself using is those real inexpensive brands like Elf or Wet n Wild, so I'd love to see that! And I definitely will pick up that NYX brow gel-my brows grow in this odd downwards angle & are so stubborn, & I've been looking for a good, strong brow gel that's affordable. And that avant pop neutral palette looks gorgeous!
I love the Nyx translucent loose powder so much, and I really love their blushes, all of their lip products, their setting spray, eyeliners, etc! Such a good brand!
I love the nyx cream contour palette, they are SUPER dry except the contour shade BUT blend in some argan oil or coconut oil and it keeos it really creamy and works really well! Try it!
Emily--I know that when people like you put yourselves out there, you never know who's listening and what for, so I wanted to share some info hope you find endearing. I have 2 students in 6th grade who are makeup crazy. They are learning English, and one of their language learning goals is to become fluent enough to start a youtube channel in a few years. I've recommended they watch your videos because (among other things) you are well spoken, enunciate clearly, and organize your thoughts carefully. I feel confident in that they won't be exposed to crass language, or cattiness, or other bad behaviors while watching you. And they even get a dose of pop culture once in a while, like when you start singing country songs or mention popular movies or use an American idiom. They even used one of your videos to write a "how to" presentation for class. So kudos to you!
I have been watching you for years. You are honest, sincere and totally down to earth. You love your family and you love make up and you devote a lot of time to helping all of us know what products we might more wisely spend our money on. Don't change - just keep being the sweet person you are and you will always have both devoted fans and your dignity. I am now going to HAVE to buy that NYX contouring palette!
Emily, I watch your videos all the time. I generally don't buy something without seeing your review first because I know you will give an in-depth and honest review. You really are a gem among the beauty gurus on TH-cam. Your love of all beauty products is so relatable to me and I just want you to know, that although I rarely comment, you are very appreciated!
I trust your opinion more than anyone else on TH-cam - you're so authentic and never seem like you're just advertising products for money which is so refreshing nowadays!
You are the only one beauty TH-camr I am staying with!! Genuine, kind, knowledgeable, and most informative beauty channel ever and this channel is all I need !!!! Thank you!
I really am just blown away how you are not bigger than you deserve to be. You are the most informative beauty guru I know and one of the most genuine.
I love the NYX prismatic eyeshadows!! I own a few of the similar Urban Decay shades and NYX is just as good for less than half as much! Mermaid, Girl Talk, and Fireball are super unique and so pigmented, not dry but not too buttery. A little Fix Plus is helpful to help them achieve full opacity.
You deserve every view, every like, every subscriber. You are an amazing woman, mom & youtuber. The best out there! I'm 16 & a mom myself & I really look up to you. You're my favorite youtuber. Just know that you deserve it all. 💜
Nothing to do with the video but I'm 18 and my due date can be any day after March 28th I just want to tell you that I wish you and you baby the best, you probably know this by now but don't listen to the mean comments people make we're just as capable of being successful as everyone else, and we already are, in fact we can even be more successful since we have a big motivation to go out there and conquer the world! Never give up your dreams, because now you can share them with someone else
Emily I always appreciate your honesty in your videos you are one of the handful of youtubers who I can trust to give 100% honest and genuine feed back about a product. I have never been disappointed in a product you've recommended and I feel my expectations are always met because of your feedback. So thank you for being so thoughtful about your reviews and dedicated to your channel- it shows!
I would like to see your Top 5 on Pallidio products or Makeup Revolution products. I had told my daughter in law to watch you as I have been watching you since I started watching TH-cam you were in your apartment and still doing the News. You were my first beauty makeup artist that I subscribed too and I have been watching you ever since 2008. I like you because you take your time to explain and show the product and I feel you are one of the few honest ones on TH-cam. Thank you for being you. Hugs and blessings! =)
Love you so much Emily! You're so down to earth and very straight with your viewers. I feel like I can always try out your recommendations because you're so honest and don't sugar coat anything. Blessings to you and your cute family!
I didn't like the NYX creme contour pallet either until I bought almond oil for a facial moisturizer and put a few drops on the pallet and after a couple of times doing that I have never had to add more almond oil! The product absorbed it and it so smooth and it is now my favorite pallet!!! (Got the almond oil for like $3 at Walmart)
You are so down to earth...and real. This is why I subscribed years ago, and continue to watch each new video that you post. I am so proud of how far you have come! Keep up the good work girl!! You are amazing!
Emily, i don't tend to comment on TH-cam videos much, and this is actually the first time I have commented on one of your videos, but I just want to thank you because you are the reason I check my TH-cam subscriptions every day! I always get excited when I see new videos on your channel because I know that they will always be of the highest quality but at the same time I feel like I'm just sitting down to chat with a friend about makeup... You've stayed down to earth throughout the years (which most big beauty gurus seem to struggle with these days) despite all your success. I admire you so much! Your work ethic is second to none and I salute you so much for the work you do for your subscribers. Again, thank you so much for all you do and I know that many people feel the same way!
I'm so glad you mentioned that about the Nyx Cream Highlight and Contour Palette! I'm still learning how to contour, and I bought this palette to learn. I also found it very hard to use, but thought it might just be because I don't know how to use it. Good to know it was not just me.
The work you put into every video is tremendously apparent. Thank you for your hard work Emily! I would love to see a top 5 bottom 5 for MAC, as they have a large range of offerings.
Thank you girl!!!! Seriously you put so much work and effort into these videos for us ! The least we can do is thumbs you up or show you too are friends ! Your so humble !
Great video!! I love NYX. Must try the eyebrow mascara and the POP shadows now. I'd love to see the Top/Bottom 5 for ELF. They have some great products as well.
+Amanda i agree. Wet N Wild has some surprisingly awesome products especially for the price, but there are definitely products that just arent as great
You're so informative and you really know your stuff when it comes to makeup. As someone who doesn't have a lot of experience or money to just buy stuff on a whim, I really appreciate that. It helps me get a feel for things that will actually work for me and that way I'm not wasting money on products that won't.
I love that your reviews are so fair and factual. I love that you aren't afraid to say something not so positive about a product or a brand, but it never, ever has come off as "bashing". You always have great reasons why you love or hate something, and you really do make it about how the product performs or how you wear it/use it or like it. I know that when I'm watching your videos there has been some real thought put into the content. You're my go-to for product knowledge!! Thanks :)
Emily, thank you so much for your insides and compilations of makeup. I love that you always give your opinion without putting down the maker or product itself. Thank you so much and know you are loved!!!!
Definitely agree with you on the baked blushes. I was looking for an orange blush with a bit of shimmer in it and at initial swatching I thought their baked blushes were going to do me right, but when I actually bought one and tried to use it it was so chalky, no pigmentation with zero shimmer. It was my first disappointing nyx product!
You are a class act and I value your opinions, which are never mean spirited. Thank you so much for your willingness to share your experiences with us.
Flutter Kiss is one of my favorite lipsticks of all time! The packaging on those lipsticks is absolutely horrendous (every single one I've purchased, the lid has cracked and doesn't stay on) but the product is SO good I don't even care! Love NYX and love this type of video. Your channel has been one of my favorites since I got into beauty videos years ago. I love how genuine you are. Keep up all the great work! xo
I have been watching your videos for many many years (since 2008) and while I have unsubscribed from a lot of channels over the years yours has always kept me entertained. You always come up with new video ideas, your opinion is honest and well voiced and you have stayed true to yourself. You deserve many more subscribers! Keep up the great work!
I feel like your channel is the most authentic on TH-cam. no sponsorships, no bs, excessive ads, etc. Just straight honesty! 1st channel I ever subscribed to!

Tess M i've never seen a video where someone bashes a product?
I swear by the NYX HD Studio Photogenic Loose Finishing Powder in Translucent. I used to use all the fancy shmancy ones from Sephora but once I tried the NYX one I never looked back! I've repurchased it 3 times so far. Best powder ever.
+Jennifer Myers thanks so much for recommending!
I have been debating about this powder and now I definitely am going to try it. Thx! :)
+Jennifer Myers i just picked that up today...it's fabulous!
This is the best beauty channel for students honestly.
Elf cosmetics? Urban Decay? Sephora Brand? Ulta Brand? I always love you're trying to come up with unique video ideas and this is why you're one of my favorites.

'Could it be any better' at 8.48 reminds me so much of Chandler it's crazy

Milani and colourpop would be great to do one brand prodcuts hits and misses.

Do you think you could do a top 5 bottom 5 on colourpop's products?
+ToxicPikachu1428 That would be amazing, I love colourpop!
Your still well grounded and humble . Nobody has ever dared to comment bad in any of your videos. Amazing personality !
Emily, you have by far the best beauty videos out there!! Every single idea and video is a hit for me. I think you could do a video discussing carpet samples or watching paint dry, and I would still love it! You're the best!!
You're such a doll, Emily! You are the most thorough, honest, professional, trustworthy resource on TH-cam in the beauty category. I truly trust your opinions and reviews and I appreciate all of your hard work!! Thank YOU!! Xoxo

My favorite NXY product is the HD concealer. It's nice and thick and creamy, really covers my under eye circles!
She's so sweet I'm so surprised that people don't talk more about her! Honestly you've got really nice videos
Literally this woman is the only person I would watch and listen to past 5 min. She's awesome. I feel like she gets to the point. So many beauty gurus draaaggg
The NYX Micro brow is AWSOME! thanks to you I saved money and I'm happy cause it worked on my eyebrows. I have thick dark eyebrows but with age I have notice less hair on them, ( not as full as they use to be ) so I tried some products but it always looked over done! With this pencil I just touch on the spots that I need and it looks natural I LOVE IT thanks to your recommendation I don't have to spend all of that money on the Anastasia one. Love ya Emily xo
I really enjoy this series and the way you don't focus strictly on high end. Most of us can't afford high end so it's nice to know what's hot, what's not. I'd love to see you do this with Elf, Jordana, or Wet &Wild. Thanks ❤️
I absolutely love your channel, it has been a favourite of mine since I discovered the world of TH-cam back in 2011 maybe? I was always so inspired by the way your described products and your wealth of knowledge! I describe you as a Beauty Encyclopedia, and even though your channel continues to grow you are the same approachable person I started watching years ago! I also love how creative you are, so many great video ideas and concepts! Inspired me to to Palette Bingo!
Fave primer: Nyx Born to Glow illuminating primer. I feel like it does a good job of creating a nice base while also providing a bit of a glow, albeit a very subtle one.
For another top & bottom 5, I'd love to see Elf or Wet n Wild! Anymore I use mostly internet brands & indie brands, but alot of the drugstore stuff I find myself using is those real inexpensive brands like Elf or Wet n Wild, so I'd love to see that! And I definitely will pick up that NYX brow gel-my brows grow in this odd downwards angle & are so stubborn, & I've been looking for a good, strong brow gel that's affordable. And that avant pop neutral palette looks gorgeous!
I love the Nyx translucent loose powder so much, and I really love their blushes, all of their lip products, their setting spray, eyeliners, etc! Such a good brand!
Can't wait for a review on some of the new products from the tarte rainforest of the sea collection! Pretty please?☺️
I love how you use language so descriptively to explain things, plus you are really articulate. I salute you for that.
Can you do a tutorial on makeup in humidity? I live in the South and I makeup melts off in the summer.
I love the nyx cream contour palette, they are SUPER dry except the contour shade BUT blend in some argan oil or coconut oil and it keeos it really creamy and works really well! Try it!
Emily--I know that when people like you put yourselves out there, you never know who's listening and what for, so I wanted to share some info hope you find endearing. I have 2 students in 6th grade who are makeup crazy. They are learning English, and one of their language learning goals is to become fluent enough to start a youtube channel in a few years. I've recommended they watch your videos because (among other things) you are well spoken, enunciate clearly, and organize your thoughts carefully. I feel confident in that they won't be exposed to crass language, or cattiness, or other bad behaviors while watching you. And they even get a dose of pop culture once in a while, like when you start singing country songs or mention popular movies or use an American idiom. They even used one of your videos to write a "how to" presentation for class. So kudos to you!
I have been watching you for years. You are honest, sincere and totally down to earth. You love your family and you love make up and you devote a lot of time to helping all of us know what products we might more wisely spend our money on. Don't change - just keep being the sweet person you are and you will always have both devoted fans and your dignity. I am now going to HAVE to buy that NYX contouring palette!
I would love to see a top five/bottom five for Rimmel. Or a top five/bottom five for Lorac.
Emily, I watch your videos all the time. I generally don't buy something without seeing your review first because I know you will give an in-depth and honest review. You really are a gem among the beauty gurus on TH-cam. Your love of all beauty products is so relatable to me and I just want you to know, that although I rarely comment, you are very appreciated!
Would like to see one on the brand "makeup revolution"
Sharfaa Woodally 2 years later .. has her own palette 🎨❤️
I trust your opinion more than anyone else on TH-cam - you're so authentic and never seem like you're just advertising products for money which is so refreshing nowadays!
I'd love to see top 5 / bottom 5 on essence xx.
You are the only one beauty TH-camr I am staying with!! Genuine, kind, knowledgeable, and most informative beauty channel ever and this channel is all I need !!!! Thank you!
Love your eyes. It's nice to see green eyeshadow not just orange,pink and let's not forget brown ... So refreshing.
I'd love to see one of these for Urban Decay!
your attention to detail and efforts to be as informed on as many products as possible pays off. Your a fabulous source of information!!
I just love you! I subscribed about a month ago, and you're def my FAVORITE. I love how honest you are! Very helpful! Thank you!!!
I really am just blown away how you are not bigger than you deserve to be. You are the most informative beauty guru I know and one of the most genuine.
IM OBSESSED WITH THIS SERIES
I would love to see a best of Wet'n Wild cosmetics. Thank-you!
top 5 bottom 5 for elf, milani, and wet n wild!
I'm so glad I came across your NYX tutorial. It's a big help when deciding what to try. You also speak so clearly and are so nice. Thanks
I would love to see Elf next!
I love the NYX prismatic eyeshadows!! I own a few of the similar Urban Decay shades and NYX is just as good for less than half as much! Mermaid, Girl Talk, and Fireball are super unique and so pigmented, not dry but not too buttery. A little Fix Plus is helpful to help them achieve full opacity.
You deserve every view, every like, every subscriber. You are an amazing woman, mom & youtuber. The best out there! I'm 16 & a mom myself & I really look up to you. You're my favorite youtuber. Just know that you deserve it all. 💜
Nothing to do with the video but I'm 18 and my due date can be any day after March 28th I just want to tell you that I wish you and you baby the best, you probably know this by now but don't listen to the mean comments people make we're just as capable of being successful as everyone else, and we already are, in fact we can even be more successful since we have a big motivation to go out there and conquer the world! Never give up your dreams, because now you can share them with someone else
Emily I always appreciate your honesty in your videos you are one of the handful of youtubers who I can trust to give 100% honest and genuine feed back about a product. I have never been disappointed in a product you've recommended and I feel my expectations are always met because of your feedback. So thank you for being so thoughtful about your reviews and dedicated to your channel- it shows!
I would like to see your Top 5 on Pallidio products or Makeup Revolution products. I had told my daughter in law to watch you as I have been watching you since I started watching TH-cam you were in your apartment and still doing the News. You were my first beauty makeup artist that I subscribed too and I have been watching you ever since 2008. I like you because you take your time to explain and show the product and I feel you are one of the few honest ones on TH-cam. Thank you for being you. Hugs and blessings! =)
Love you so much Emily! You're so down to earth and very straight with your viewers. I feel like I can always try out your recommendations because you're so honest and don't sugar coat anything. Blessings to you and your cute family!
I didn't like the NYX creme contour pallet either until I bought almond oil for a facial moisturizer and put a few drops on the pallet and after a couple of times doing that I have never had to add more almond oil! The product absorbed it and it so smooth and it is now my favorite pallet!!! (Got the almond oil for like $3 at Walmart)
underrated comment alert
Meagan Garcia oh wow! Good to know!
actually you can do this to any product that is too dry or has dried out, like cream eyeshadow, gel eyeliner or pomade!
So glad I found this - NYX has just been introduced here in the UK and there's one in a nearby Boots and there's so much stuff!!!
elf and wet and wild top/bottom 5
You are so down to earth...and real. This is why I subscribed years ago, and continue to watch each new video that you post. I am so proud of how far you have come! Keep up the good work girl!! You are amazing!
I swear you deserve so many more subscribers!
When I have a question about makeup products I always check here first because of how thoroughly and objectively you review products. You're the best!
Could you do a Top 5 Bottom 5 on Rimmel?
Emily, i don't tend to comment on TH-cam videos much, and this is actually the first time I have commented on one of your videos, but I just want to thank you because you are the reason I check my TH-cam subscriptions every day! I always get excited when I see new videos on your channel because I know that they will always be of the highest quality but at the same time I feel like I'm just sitting down to chat with a friend about makeup... You've stayed down to earth throughout the years (which most big beauty gurus seem to struggle with these days) despite all your success. I admire you so much! Your work ethic is second to none and I salute you so much for the work you do for your subscribers. Again, thank you so much for all you do and I know that many people feel the same way!
Sephora collection! I'm always curious to see what is a hidden gem...
I'm so glad you mentioned that about the Nyx Cream Highlight and Contour Palette! I'm still learning how to contour, and I bought this palette to learn. I also found it very hard to use, but thought it might just be because I don't know how to use it. Good to know it was not just me.
Could you to 5/5 on Estee Lauder? I started wearing Double Wear because of you and I love it!!!!
The work you put into every video is tremendously apparent. Thank you for your hard work Emily! I would love to see a top 5 bottom 5 for MAC, as they have a large range of offerings.
Would love to see this video on Milani for drugstore and Benefit for higher end
Thank you girl!!!! Seriously you put so much work and effort into these videos for us ! The least we can do is thumbs you up or show you too are friends ! Your so humble !
Remember when the book store would have a section for the books in Oprah's book club? I feel like Ulta should do that for Emily 's top five products.
Emily, you have consistently posted thoughtful, educational and thorough content for the past 6 years I've been watching you. Thank you so much!
You are such a sweet and genuine person!
Great video!! I love NYX. Must try the eyebrow mascara and the POP shadows now. I'd love to see the Top/Bottom 5 for ELF. They have some great products as well.
could you do wet and wild next? cruelty-free for the win! 🐰
+Amanda i agree. Wet N Wild has some surprisingly awesome products especially for the price, but there are definitely products that just arent as great
Amanda the wet n wild fergie eye primer is crazy good! like eyeshadow glue haha
I hear a lot about their eyeliner! It's funny. I don't really hear much hype about Wet n' Wild. The cheaper brands are always underrated.
You're so informative and you really know your stuff when it comes to makeup. As someone who doesn't have a lot of experience or money to just buy stuff on a whim, I really appreciate that. It helps me get a feel for things that will actually work for me and that way I'm not wasting money on products that won't.
l can't say it enough you are on my Top 5 TH-camrs
I love that your reviews are so fair and factual. I love that you aren't afraid to say something not so positive about a product or a brand, but it never, ever has come off as "bashing". You always have great reasons why you love or hate something, and you really do make it about how the product performs or how you wear it/use it or like it. I know that when I'm watching your videos there has been some real thought put into the content. You're my go-to for product knowledge!! Thanks :)
Just wanted to let you know I love these videos Emily ! Great new format!
I always look forward to anything new you put out. 💜
Emily, thank you so much for your insides and compilations of makeup. I love that you always give your opinion without putting down the maker or product itself. Thank you so much and know you are loved!!!!
Would love to see theBalm :) one of my faves!
You are so humble and caring! I go on kicks with different youtubers, but you are one that I always come back to.
Please do a Top 5 Bottom 5 on Maybelline makeup :)
Definitely agree with you on the baked blushes. I was looking for an orange blush with a bit of shimmer in it and at initial swatching I thought their baked blushes were going to do me right, but when I actually bought one and tried to use it it was so chalky, no pigmentation with zero shimmer. It was my first disappointing nyx product!
What a lovely vibrant look you wore in this video!
I'm so happy I found your channel! I've been looking for a beauty guru who is genuine and deeply and entirely honest. Thank you, you're amazing!
Please do your next top five bottom five on wet n' wild
You are a class act and I value your opinions, which are never mean spirited. Thank you so much for your willingness to share your experiences with us.
ESSENCE TOP 5 BOTTOM 5! 😍
Flutter Kiss is one of my favorite lipsticks of all time! The packaging on those lipsticks is absolutely horrendous (every single one I've purchased, the lid has cracked and doesn't stay on) but the product is SO good I don't even care! Love NYX and love this type of video. Your channel has been one of my favorites since I got into beauty videos years ago. I love how genuine you are. Keep up all the great work! xo
Please do a top 5 bottom 5 from Benefit!
I have been watching your videos for many many years (since 2008) and while I have unsubscribed from a lot of channels over the years yours has always kept me entertained. You always come up with new video ideas, your opinion is honest and well voiced and you have stayed true to yourself. You deserve many more subscribers! Keep up the great work!
EYESHADOW TUTORIAL PLEASE!
