[maryjanechang414]

you're SO pretty... i bet you're sick of hearing this though lol x)

[EchoEight]

I'm impressed by your beauty. Very pretty, Asian girls are always beautiful by nature and you are not the exception. xoxo

[Blueberrymuffins323]

You're so pretty :) <3

[gemminamakeup]

heey soo cute channel!! I subbed =D please sub back!! <3

[swu1381]

You're so pretty! >_< I still can't tell though... are you Japanese? I'm sure you get asked this a lot haha since you speak so fluently!

[danceandmelodee]

@swu1381 Thank you >< My nationality is Japanese, but I grew up in America my entire life. I studied a lot so I could become bilingual. :)

[CuteperfectionRAWR]

@danceandmelodee thats awesome im half japanese^^

[heeeeyitsdana]

You're soo pretty!

I hope you become famous some day.

Please upload some more cooking videos!

&BB cream reviews too (:

[danceandmelodee]

@heeeeyitsdana Thank you for your kind words! >< Yes, actually, I AM uploading a cooking video most likely next week! :) The next set of videos I'm putting up will hopefully be helpful to many of you since it will involve health, cooking, &beauty. Please look forward to it!<3

[cmannequin]

I wanted to ask you a question and in no way do I mean this as accusing or insulting because I think you are gorgeous. i wanted to know if you got a nose job? Now I know you might not want to answer this and the question might seem ridiculous, but I just find your nose very pretty like all those korean actresses :O

[danceandmelodee]

@cmannequin It's okay :) No, I didn't. I haven't had any kind of plastic surgery anywhere (including things like braces). Even though there are parts I wish were a bit different, I personally don't want to change anything b/c I'm too scared, and I don't believe "fixing" something will help me grow as a person or make me feel better. I've never been told specifically that my nose was nice though, so I was surprised. >< lol Thank you for your words!

[kerahouse1]

you are gorgeous ^___^

I like your hair colour, do ou dye it yourself ? :D

[danceandmelodee]

@kerahouse1 Thank you for your kind words. >< Yes, I do dye it myself at home! but I actually naturally have dark brown hair :)

[heartbeatscience]

so cute!!!

[danceandmelodee]

@heartbeatscience Thank you for the compliment ><

[kyoq9]

i really love ur video, it's so detail and helpful! And you are adorable! Looking forward to more video from you soon!

[danceandmelodee]

@kyoq9 Aww I'm glad this video was helpful to you :) <3 Thank you, I'll be uploading new helpful beauty & cooking videos next week! xoxo

[hellcatcountess755]

You are the most patient and dedicated in replying to viewer's comments, so far. :D

[danceandmelodee]

@hellcatcountess755 Thank you so much! :) <3

[0Puzzled0]

hmm i wanted to try the candy doll products. can you buy them anywhere in jpn?

[danceandmelodee]

@0Puzzled0 Yes, you'll be able to find them in most makeup shops, departments, and even sometimes drugstores! Even in America, they've been selling Tsubasa Masuwaka's makeup products at Japanese supermarkets. :)

[xxpensxipodsxx]

Youre SO cute, like a porcelain doll!!

[secchanlife]

wooow. I am so excited to see this because all products are of course familer with me!!! Personally, I love Kiss Me Heroine Make!! I am so happy that you explain about Japanese products on Youtube!! because basically I see the products from the US or somewhere!

[ChoCoboLagoon]

abt RMK concealor, i thought the darker tone is for blemish and acne spot, so it will not stand out -and the lighter tone is for under eye cycle. i am using it, as well. i think it is hard to blend but stay on very well through out the day. so i think if u use it more often and get used to it - it will work out really well

(dont throw ur 50box away hahaha)

and anata no me ga deka de kirei desu !

[danceandmelodee]

@ChoCoboLagoon Yes, I did try the darker tone for a spot that I have, too, but since I have extremely fair skin, it looked very obvious and it was so dry and hard to blend, like you mentioned. :( The RMK makeup artist mixed the two colors for my dark circles at the counter so that's what I did after I got home, but it didn't work well... I'll continue to use it though by maybe slightly melting the product or something. (lol) Thank you for the comment & compliment!<3

[iPikastars]

I just wanted to tell you that I love that you do your videos in English (the language that I know now) and Japanese (my native tongue before I learned English and forgot how to speak it, but can understand). You're the first Beauty Guru that I've found that does such! <3

[danceandmelodee]

@iPikastars Thank you so much! I try my best to be unique, and create interesting and helpful videos for all my viewers. I appreciate comments like yours, and it really encourages me to keep working harder. Please look forward to my upcoming videos!<3 Hope all is well with you :)

[mhyrakawabata]

I have kate's concealer...looking forward to have other products of Kate..

[mhyrakawabata]

Love ur vids..morepower

[elsker413]

They have like affordable skin care but also very high-end stuffs..Now i am trying their cleansing oil and soup..like a step 1, 2,3.4 stuffs...Hope you can find time to tell what you think of their products. Thanks and i am really enjoy your video and hope you make them more often :)

[LUVBEAUTY888]

what lashes r u wearing?



[kwokstacy]

Can't wait to watch your next video!!!=)

[danceandmelodee]

@kwokstacy Thank you! I'll get it up by the end of this week :) <3

[skylove788]

英語上手ですね。

カワイイ！！私は　日本に　住んでいる　韓国人です。　you're skin is great and i luv japanese make up and hairsyle!!

thank you ^^

[danceandmelodee]

@skylove788 ありがとうございます :) 日本語、お上手ですね！私は韓国語を習いたいです♪ Thank you for the compliment!

[KatiesCrystalGoodies]

Hey I love this video! Thank for doing it. I've been looking online for a real good high coverage pore concealing and oil absorbing powder. I can't find any really good reviews about kate or shiseido comparisons. I got sana in flushing, ny and love it but its not all that impressive. So any advice? Thank you! Ive subbed as well.

[danceandmelodee]

@KatiesCrystalGoodies You're welcome :) You may only be able to find this at a big Japanese supermarket in the states, but there's this product called "Tekaran-zou", and it's a very compact and wonderful oil absorbing powder. (I will talk about this product in a video sometime.) It's superrr inexpensive! For pore concealing, BB creams may be better, or the powder I showed in this video. My next vid (Shiseido Haul) will include a wonderful pore concealing foundation as well, so pls come by again!

[rummies0219]

説明がとてもわかりやすくて参考になりました。

日本で最近の１番人気の下地は、チューブのやつじゃなくて、ボト­ルタイプの「ソフィーナ プリマヴィスタ皮脂くずれ防止 化粧下地 」の方ですよ。

調べてみてね〜：）

[danceandmelodee]

@rummies0219 よかったです！:) はい、アメリカに帰ってきてからそれを知りました >< コンビニに行った時、私が買ったものに1位と書いてあったのでそ­れかと勘違いしてしまいました... 皆さん、ボトルタイプがすごく良いと書いてあるので今度日本に行­った時に試してみます☆

[cyexquisite]

I really want to try KATE & Candy Doll products!! <3

[danceandmelodee]

@cyexquisite Yes, they are both amazing cosmetic brands!

[AbeAkahana]

good ^___^ <33

[danceandmelodee]

@AbeAkahana Thank you :)

[neineichannel]

cant wait for the part two!

[danceandmelodee]

@neineichannel Thank you. :) I actually have to re-film that video tomorrow b/c of audio... but hopefully I'll get it up sometime real soon! ><

[neineichannel]

@danceandmelodee oh!! thanks for your reply... i am visiting japan next week.. so i am filling my shopping list ... want to hear your recommendation :D i was thinking to buy candy doll face powder... but now i am wondering if i still getting it... do you hv any other recommendation of powder foundation (maybe in drugstore brand?) thank you melodee :D

[danceandmelodee]

@neineichannel That's exciting! Hmm... Candy Doll face powder is nice, however, it doesn't last long and is more of a powder that just gives you a nice finish. You also can't carry it anywhere b/c it gets really messy. >< If you want coverage, I would def recommend the other powder I showed here. It's also much less expensive, cute, and easy to carry around with you. Please check out my "Japanese Must-Have Beauty Products" video for additional amazing products! Have fun in Japan! :)

[Sechari]

I'm very fair too, and if I want to contour I just use a foundation or powder 1-2 shades darker then my skin - It's supposed to imitate a natural shadow on your skin, so going with a foundation rather then an orangey bronzer always made sense to me :)

Thank you for the video, it's very informative!

[danceandmelodee]

@Sechari Icic, that's a nice idea~ I'm just not good at shading, so maybe if I find an easy product or powder to work with that looks natural on my skin, I will review it someday. :)

You're welcome!<3

[chantilly102]

could you also do an eyebrow tutorial too?? 

[danceandmelodee]

@chantilly102 Please check out my "Japanese Natural Makeup" video because that is exactly how I do it. :) Thank you, and I hope it will help!

[chantilly102]

do you recommend any website that sells japanese makeup products with preferably free shipping or low shipping cost? thanks!

[danceandmelodee]

@chantilly102 Pretty and Cute sells some Japanese makeup products, and they have wonderful shipping rates! They ship very fast as well. Check out prettyandcute. com for more detail! ;)

[LesIeet]

Products you can't live without please (:

[danceandmelodee]

@LesIeet I'll add that to my list of videos to do! Thank you :)

[maiq0613]

メロディーさんのおかげで無駄な買い物がふせげそうです(*^_­^*)

私も資生堂が大好きなんです、質がいいですよね☆

[danceandmelodee]

@maiq0613 よかったです！商品を買う前は、色々リサーチすると良いですよね­♪　資生堂大好きです！

[zvejka]

You look marvelous in this video (again)!

Just wondering what essential makeup do you take with you on board while you fly to Japan over 10hours.

Here in the EU we have a limit of 100ml of liquid, not sure if this applies to the US.

Can't wait to watch the haul's part 2! XOXO

Zvejka

[danceandmelodee]

@zvejka Thank you so much, Zvejka! Actually, for long flights, I (most of the time) don't wear any makeup at all. >< I just don't like having makeup on for long hours b/c it'll definitely get messy + will be bad for your skin, eyes, etc. But if I did put on makeup, I would probably take a pencil eyeliner and a powder foundation with me. I'll talk about that kind of stuff in my On-the-Go makeup bag type of video in the future if requested. :)

[lastquartertsuki]

Have you been using Fairydrops mascara? I just started using it recently and I love it. :D

[danceandmelodee]

@lastquartertsuki Yes, I started using one. :) I love it, too, and will talk about the one I got in the Part 2 haul!<3

[mellove5]

woowww!! your natural eyebrows are beautiful!! so lucky!!

[danceandmelodee]

@mellove5 Aww thank you >< !

[danceandmelodee]

@Amybeauty11 Yeahh, it's just way too hard to use and blend... I remember going under the light and seeing obvious yellow dots underneath my eyes... >< I was so disappointed b/c I heard wonderful things about her other products!

[kimsaochu]

i'm obsessed with Japanese products, I always love your video because you review them. There's something in the ingredient that works so well for my skin, even with cheap products ^^ Keep it up!!! I love your makeup today, such cute eyes ;)

[danceandmelodee]

@kimsaochu Yay, I'm glad to hear that. :) Japanese products work really well for my skin as well-- the colors, blending, matching my skin tone, pigmentation, etc. Thanks so much! Please look forward to more Japanese products reviews and makeup tutorials.<3

[danceandmelodee]

@LuzPerezTV The quality is way better on this one, but I just wished it had auto focus! >< Maybe I'll try to get new lens for it to make it work.★

[danceandmelodee]

@akim2431 I noticed that too, after I finished recording it. >< Thank you for kindly letting me know! When I move to my next house, I'll come up with a nice setup. :)

[GalChiBi]

hey melody,, most of yr makeup can reduce pore

i would love to know is there any skincare product that can reduce our pore,,

i have crazy pore on my cheek that sometimes makeup could not even cover :((

[danceandmelodee]

@GalChiBi I have tried a few products in reducing pores, and I believe the Mint Julep Masque I talked about in my Skincare Routine video worked the best. >< Please check that video out if you would like more details on it! But remember, those pore strips (for the nose, cheek, forehead, chin area) are horrible, iand t will make the pores become more open and obvious, so definitely don't use those!

[GalChiBi]

@danceandmelodee thank so much ^.^ i'm gonna try it~

[kilie305]

can you do a vlog abt ur hair dye color and where u get ur haircut done..its gorgeous..<3

[danceandmelodee]

@kilie305 I've been getting requests for that and hair tutorials often, so I would love to do that soon! But I actually dye and cut my hair most of the time ^^; lol

[MiniMikiii]

you have very pretty eyes! I hope you do a tutorial on how to do this eye makeup :D

[danceandmelodee]

@MiniMikiii Aww thank you! Sure, I would love to.<3

[MisoJenny]

So jealous you got to go to Japan! Great haul! <3

[danceandmelodee]

@MisoJenny Thanks, Jenny! :) I already wna go back (;_;)

[anzfalcon]

Yaaaaaaaay love your haul Melodee!!! Can't wait to watch the next one! Very informative haul! Kissu Kissu!

[danceandmelodee]

@anzfalcon Yayy thank you~! :) I'll def do more!<3

[springsunshine1]

ooh straight hair :) you look so pretty! <3

[danceandmelodee]

@springsunshine1 Thank you! For summer, I like to straighten my hair more for some reason. :) lol

[kimdao]

Love the video! Just wondering, was that a Lumix LX5 you were recording with? I have the same camera! haha

[danceandmelodee]

@kimdao Thanks, Kim! Actually, it's an Olympus compact DSLR I recently bought. I do have a Lumix digital camera, too, though! :)

[uberaudioexperience]

Good job giving people the heads up on that cruddy concealer. I would be kind of teed off if I spent 50 big ones on something that ain't worth a hill of beans. LOL. I think you did a good job putting this video together ( you gave alot of good info on the products) and your eye make up looks awesome.

I am looking forward to Part 2. :)

[danceandmelodee]

@uberaudioexperience I read reviews, and it seemed like almost everyone had regretted buying it so I wanted to tell my viewers. ><; haha Thanks so much! :)

[lesadie]

Love this video! Especially japanese makeup product~ They also makes me want to get more and more.

[danceandmelodee]

@lesadie Hehe, thank you! Please look forward to Part 2 and the Shiseido recommendations as well! There's a lot more wonderful products to come. :)

[aitabi2011]

メロディーさん　こんにちは（＾＾）

メイクアップのビデオも　見ていて楽しいですよ

日本のメーカーの名が出てくると　親近感が湧きますね

特に　メロディーさんの　可愛い顔を ずっと見ていられるのが いいですね（＾＾）

[danceandmelodee]

@aitabi2011 こんにちは！よかったです >< 最近はメイクのビデオが多くなってしまっているのですが、ダンス­のビデオも昨日一部撮って、今は日本旅行のビデオも編集していま­す★ 早くアップしたいです！いつも見に来てくださってありがとうござ­います！:)

[onecolorwonder]

In some instances, especially when you smile, you remind me a lot of the Japanese actress Toda Erika. :)

[danceandmelodee]

@onecolorwonder Really? Someone told me that in a previous video, too, but that is too nice. >< lol. But thank you! :)

[onecolorwonder]

@danceandmelodee You're welcome! :)

[UsagiHime]

@onecolorwonder I also see the resemblance to Toda Erika, but also an uncanny similarity to Kiritani Mirei, who are both my favourite actresses. x)

[onecolorwonder]

@UsagiHime You know what, you're right! She carries features from both! :)

[JadoreCupcakes]

You're so pretty ~ :)

Are you Japanese? if not, what is your ethnicity?

xx

[danceandmelodee]

@JadoreCupcakes Thank you for the compliment! Yes, I am Japanese. :)

[jiseri]

Thank you for educating me on Japanese beauty products. ^^

[danceandmelodee]

@jiseri Hehe I'm glad it helped! Please look forward to more. :) <3

[siliconsurf]

so pretty

[danceandmelodee]

@siliconsurf Thank you! ><

[aslc99]

your skin is to die for *_*

[danceandmelodee]

@aslc99 Aww thank you for your kind words! ><

[sugarsugarsosweet]

love the new camera. your skin is so flawless and beautiful. looking forward to your shishedo makeup recommendations.

[danceandmelodee]

@sugarsugarsosweet Yay, thank you! I might have to refilm my Shiseido video because of the audio, but I will hopefully get it up sometime next week. :) Please look forward to it!

[parkjanet123]

oh and what eyelashes are you wearing?? they look sooo natural!

[danceandmelodee]

@parkjanet123 I love them.<3 I will talk about them in my Part 2 Makeup from Japan Haul, so please come by again if you would like! :)

[parkjanet123]

For the Cezanne Blush/Highlight, what is the exact name of the color?

[danceandmelodee]

@parkjanet123 There's actually not a name, it was just "01" lol. A lot of the Japanese (low-end) brands don't really have names. They just have numbers like "PK-1" for "Pink shade 1", etc. :)

[kei0527]

nice make up :) luv yr review and looking forward to yr next video!!

[danceandmelodee]

@kei0527 Thank you! :) I'm filming and editing a couple today and this weekend to upload real soon.<3

[imadinosoar625]

You look very mature with the darker eye makeup! It's pretty (:

I was wondering about the super waterproof eyeliner, is it hard to get off? Some REALLY waterproof eyeliner are quite difficult.

Looking forward to your other videos!

[danceandmelodee]

@imadinosoar625 Thank you! I had more eye makeup on in this video than usual. :) Yes, it is. ^^; lol You would have to probably use a really nice makeup remover. I will probably use another eyeliner for the winter, but for the summer and days where I dance all day (such as performances), that eyeliner would be the best! No panda eyes worrying at all. :)

[10Koei]

君はこのとくていのビデオ本当ではけっこうきれいだっと思うよ。­でもそれぞれのビデオに君はいつもきれいですよね？(^3^)

[danceandmelodee]

@10Koei あはは、ありがとうございます！うれしいです。:)

[Kchanmimi]

love the new camera vision loll :)

[danceandmelodee]

@Kchanmimi Yayy, I'm glad you liked it! ^^

[Nhangma]

awww ur so lucky to be japaneses love products from their... and i thik Japan does the best false eye lashes .... looking forward for ur haul on them .... btw loved ur video... keep them coming

much love <3<3

[danceandmelodee]

@Nhangma Yes, Japan does have the best false eyelashes. :) The girls there really do a lot of work in creating the best falsies for their eye shape... apparently some cut and use 2~4 layers daily! >< Thank you, I'll work hard on my upcoming videos!<3

[CornPoppy010]

you look so pretty :)))) please make a tutorial for this look. btw, congrats to all japanese people and the japanese woman soccer team !!!!!!! I hope Japan wins the world cup *^--------^*

[danceandmelodee]

@CornPoppy010 Thank you! This was my natural purple makeup. :) I love playing around with colors in the summer, so I'll definitely do this and the blue one! I know~ so exciting! America vs Japan! ><

[simplycuterachel]

Hey there Melodee! :) I love your videos, hahas i get excited when you upload a new video (: Can't wait for Pt.2 of your makeup haul <3 ~Rachel

[danceandmelodee]

@simplycuterachel Aww, that makes me really happy! Thank you :) <3 I'll continue to work hard on my videos!

[nyehnyehbrooklynrage]

What would be a good and affordable eye cream? >.>;

[danceandmelodee]

@nyehnyehbrooklynrage Hmm... right now, I'm using one by Kiehl's, but I think it was somewhere in the $20's for a small container... Usually eye creams are expensive, but I'll try to look into some!

[sushiandclouds]

i love your makeup here! 

[danceandmelodee]

@sushiandclouds Thank you! This is my natural purple eyeshadow makeup. :)

[wenxD]

lovely video <3 and you look so fresh and gorgeous (you always are!) here. :]

[danceandmelodee]

@wenxD Aww thank you for the kind compliment! >_< <3
