[Vangurl650]

I like the review, but she talks WAY TOO FAST! I had trouble understanding certain brand-names that she mentioned and had to rewind the video a lot to absorb what she was saying.

[LetzMakeup]

@Vangurl650 Going to work on that:)

[FaroohzMJ]

so helpful... thank you shiv

[LetzMakeup]

@FaroohzMJ No problem;) x

I'm born and raised in the US but do have Irish family heritage so I guess that's where I got my very pale skin tone and freckles. Though, I'm the palest in my immediate family. I'm fairer than any shades in the drugstores and can't afford high end foundation. I seem to have the same discoloration you describe. Until I found your channel, I've never seen another "guru" address these issues and how to fix them. I thought I just had very unusual skin and it can be frustrating so thank you so much!

[LetzMakeup]

@DecemberMarie Glad to help! x

[AislingEire]

its a bit anal hahahaha! im irish and pale and pure freckly too! so hard to colour match! :(

[rachel272007]

I wondered if you might could help me? I keep getting Foundation that seems to match my skintone but I get it home and it is too yellow.(I am right on the line between light/medium) I do have very yellowish skin. In the summer and spring when I tan a little I can match it perfectly but I have this problem every winter. Everything is either too yellow or it looks white as a sheet when I put it on. I can't figure out what to do.

[LetzMakeup]

@rachel272007 That's why you should try get samples of a few shades close to what yours is so you can try them at home first!! x

[TheSukiebapswent]

Much as I LOVE Pro Longwear, I do find it looks a bit dry under the eye. However, I wore it over a black eye (from a fall..YES I was sober!) and NOBODY could tell, so you can't really complain too much!! xx

[LetzMakeup]

@TheSukiebapswent Yeah, I find it a tad drying too!

[15fathomscounting22]

[princessr0s3]

Very helpful & informative video...thanks a lot, Shiv!

[SuperPari22]

I hate it when I go to any makeup counter and they completely give you the wrong advice!

[LetzMakeup]

@SuperPari22 It can happen:(

[katiemcallaster]

This video was great! So helpful... I know you must hear it all the time, but I really love your accent. I really hope I can see Ireland in my lifetime though I'm afraid I would never want to come back to California afterwards :-)

[LetzMakeup]

@katiemcallaster Lol;P

[MidnightVampage]

Love it when you do videos like this! So helpful <3

[RockalilyDunne]

I'm sorry if you get this question a lot, but the collection 2000 concealer you use on yourself, is it in the shade fair or light?

Thanks for doing this, it was very helpful by the way. A full guide

[LetzMakeup]

@RockalilyDunne No. 2 so not the lightest one.

[mayathebee2626]

[anaarthur81]

Great info Shiv! Thanks for sharing!!

[anaarthur81]

Great info Shiv! Thanks for sharing!!

[smilesunshine888]

Very useful informative video! What highlighter would you recommend for pale skin?

[LetzMakeup]

@smilesunshine888 I like the Mac ones, the YSL Touche Eclat, the Sleek Makeup one!

[mcvc121]

@Adeela1989 Benefit eye bright is perfect for that!! Very brightening light pink tones will take care of brown discoloration.

[mellamomeghan21]

is it a new trend to have different nail polish colors on each hand? ive been seeing it a bit recently. oh, and thanks for doing this video! i love that someone in ireland did it :) makes it easier to buy the things

[LetzMakeup]

@mellamomeghan21 Ha ha, not sure? I used to do it as a teenager and just do it every now and again!

[1wendee0713]

Can't wait for part 2!!!!!!!

[1wendee0713]

Wow--I have learned so much from this vid!!! Thanks so so much!!!!

[Nameuntaken]

Great video as usual :D

[selayner21]

@LetzMakeup Do you know why MAC's concealer color range lacks NC25 concealers?? Drives me crazy any time I go by MAC for concealer.

[LetzMakeup]

@selayner21 Really not sure actually. I find it very frustrating too!

[THflikka]

you should really try out the brand "make up store" :) they are fantastic

[LetzMakeup]

@THflikka Where are they available from?

[THflikka]

@LetzMakeup well i'm not sure really but according to their website there should be two stores in ireland at Arnotts Henry Street- Henry Street and Arnotts Jervis Center- Jervis Street. :)

[LetzMakeup]

@THflikka Thanks!

[SnapwingOnTheTube]

A wealth of incredibly helpful information! Thanks, Shiv!

[LetzMakeup]

@SnapwingOnTheTube ^_^

[AllegraEpstein]

What do you think are the best face (for blemishes, etc.) concealers?

I am using the Mac NW20 Studio Finish concealer but it tends to rub off my face even when I set it with powder and doesn't match my skin completely.

[LetzMakeup]

@AllegraEpstein Well I would have said that one, or the Vichy DermaBlend or DermaColor. x

[roguepast]

Hi I recently subscribed to you and it's great having a makeup guru from Ireland, especially as I know the majority of the products you use can be gotten here.  I recently watched our recommendations on skin primers and from what you were saying the L'Oreal Gel primer would work on my skin, but haven't been able to get it anywhere, I live in Dublin and work in Dublin city so have been to a number of different places and can't find it. Can you advise me on this.

Thanks a million

Lynn Dublin

[LetzMakeup]

@roguepast Sorry, not sure if it is available here anymore, I don't see it in my boots anymore. x

[cpeshins]

So peach cancels out blue and pink/bisque cancels out purple? Could you do a video with more about color correcting under the eye? xx

[mcvc121]

@cpeshins

[LetzMakeup]

@cpeshins Yellow actually cancels out purple but pink is generally brightening for any darkness!

[mnyvld]

Would you reccomend color correcting (for eg green concealer or peach) before foundation and remmebr not to move them too much? i saw a "guru" that corrected with green over foundation and loked... crappy is decent to say.

[LetzMakeup]

@mnyvld Yup! x

[ladyjane247]

I have very dry skin under my eyes and the area can get very dark which makes me look, well, dead lol! Wish this video was around before I bought Macs studio finish concealer. How is the Soap and Glory one for dry skin?

[LetzMakeup]

@ladyjane247 Not really the best for dry skin, the ScreenFace Pro Palette concealer would be better!

[lindyhopjulia]

Dead informative, thanks.

I've got a heap of all different types of correctors/concealers and I'll be damned if I can get any to cover the great blue/purple pigmentation under my eyes, hereditary thing, really pale too, thinning skin also :(

[LetzMakeup]

@lindyhopjulia ^_^

[SHWeddings]

Oh my gosh, this video was SO helpful! Best video on concealer ever. Thank you so much for doing this :)

[LetzMakeup]

@SHWeddings No problem!
