  • The shape of your face is just beautiful! You really have been blessed with some full lips as well. :)

    Just thought I'd tell ya that you're pretty!

  • Great video! My friend showed me this vid! Love it! Gorgeous look! I think I would use a MARK lipstick. Never used M.A.C. but MARK is comparable. lol. Off to watch your other videos! :)

  • ur so gorgeous n pretty

  • awwh:D

    your so gorgeous

    ahhh your makeup"s LUSH!

  • @askmemakeup the way you describe how to apply all htat stuff is really really precise! i love it :)

    think i'm gonna wear that look this friday night on a theme-party (the theme is : i love hollywood)

    what would you recommend as a typical "hollywood outfit" ?

  • you look Very beautiful*

  • omg!!! you are super pretty!!! your eyes and lip are gorgeous! can you plz do more makeup tutorials that is done one You, not one some else because you are already very pretty!! :) thanks!

  • Your making up is absolutely stunning! :) Although I have a quick question. Did you happen to put any shadow or eyeliner on the bottem of your eyes, or is that mascara? I didn't quite catch that. If you could let me know, I'd really appreciated it! Take care! :)

  • Thank you for your tutorials, they are extremely helpful! One question. I've noticed that the lashes I've purchased are entirely too long. Is there a rule of thumb for the length of which to cut the lashes? Thanks!

  • Is there any tips you can give to make this look last the night at a special ocassian and also I have ivory toned skin what red lipstick would look good on me?

  • I pick red lipsticks more based around the colour of someone's teeth. Because even if you pick a colour that suits someone's skin tone or hair colour, it may make their teeth look really yellow (which red lipstick is notorious for). A blue red lippy will not fail. Try Mac's Ruby Woo, or Mac Red.

    If your teeth are very white, then you can go for different base colours to the red, like a more orange red. It really depends on your hair, eye colour, etc.

  • @askmemakeup

    can you define blue toned lipsticks for me? I've been told to go for those since many lip colours make my teeth look yellow, how do i know if a colour has a blue or yellow tone?

  • Love the tutorial..adores it!

    I really really LOVE red lipstick & the pin up look but due to the environment (asian culture) that i live in - red lipsticks are usually associates with 'mothers' or 'grannies'- and if i walked around town with the retro look ppl would have thought that im a bit cuckoo lol.. I've bought ruby woo(mac), but i havent dare using it til now (been 5mths nw)..still havent got the guts to use it..HAHAHA.. i think gonna wait til my bday then..

  • I know what you mean. But, as I've said to people all throughout this channel, red lipstick should be worn with conviction. You should wear it to show off. And no matter where you are in the world, or what people think of it, it will look sexy if you wear it with confidence.

    I love love love red lipstick on asian girls!

  • what is the music in the background? i really love your choice of music in your videos. thanks.

  • Thank you. It's "My Heart Belongs to Daddy" by Eartha Kitt.

  • Holy moly...my dear, you are drop-dead gorgeous. With or without makeup. Thankfully for me and the other over 8,000 subscribers, you not only use makeup, you have turned the application of it into an art form then shared the techniques. (The flapper makeup tutorial is utterly fab, and perfect for recreating that look)

    Thank you!

  • you are absolutely stunning beautiful (even before the makeup!) and very talented. i love your vids, they are so helpful!

  • Hey Amy,I really like your hair and was wondering what prouduct you use, cause my hair is in a really bad condition i would really appreciate it thanx.

  • I am wanting to do a whole video talking about my hair! I get a lot of questions about it, and you don't get a lot of space to write in these comments!

    My hair looks healthy because it is black and all one colour! So that immediately helps it appear glossy, and healthy. I try not to make contact with the hair dryer and my hair when blowdrying, so I don't burn it. I also do a kerastase treatment every so often (when I think of it!).

  • Great video :) I like this make-up ;)

    btw. you look beautiful...

    thanks for the video :)

  • Great informative video. I don't wear much make-up but you've inspired me to try more. I might even get some false eye lashes!

  • Thankyou for your videos, they are really great and inspirational!

  • You look like Kate Nash with long hair.

  • hi..

    may i know what is kohl?

  • Pencil eyeliner/coal pencil/khol pencil.

  • My heart belongs to Daddy.

    Dah dah dah dah dah dah dah dah daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

    I love that song and the makeup!!!

  • You are absolutly beautiful..keep it up. i could sit and listen to you talk for hours

    great! XOxoxoXO

  • I have never thought to put lashes on first, but seeing it, it makes SO much sense! I'll definatly be doing it that way next time - Thanks!! :)

  • hi, i love ur videos! truly inspirational!

    i have two questions..firstl due to u i bought the shiseido liquid eyeliner which i love, but it says not to use over eyeshadow (which i do) and got it clogged up. what do u do?

    secondly, how do u clean ur false eyelashes??

    Thanks :)

  • Not to use it over eyeshadow?!!! THat's ridiculous. Why design an eyeliner not to wear over shadow!!!! What are Shiseido thinking.

    It shouldn't get clogged up. I personally know 3 people (close friends and family) who use the liner, and they haven't had a problem. Can you do me a favour. Next time you do your makeup and use the liner, and it clogs up, take a pic and email it to me so I can see what you mean.

  • And for cleaning false lashes, I first pick off the glue with my fingers and tweezers. You can buy a lash glue remover, but I've not tried it. Then I use a good oil based makeup remover (I use Mac's Gently Off) and put it on a tissue and gently rub the lashes till they are clean!

  • You make some of the best videos for makeup!! There could never be enough of your videos! <3

  • this is so good, you are amazing. im from the country and never wear make up, but if i could do it like you it would be so cool.i like to paint and what you do with the brush is totaly art.

  • You are perfectly beautiful

    :-DDD!!!

  • amy darling please please please make a new video!

  • your voice is so pretty :)

    So r u :)

  • which mac eyelashes did you use? :/ i love them..

  • I actually didn't take note of which I used, when I did this video. Sorry.

    I use all different sorts of lashes! I'm going to do a tute on all different lashes and different uses. I hope to do that video soon.

  • you look like a doll :O

  • you are amazingly beautiful! you need to be a model.

    Love this tutorial. Will definitely try! Thank you.

  • Thank you very much. I used to model when I was 17-19. Did most of it in Indonesia and for the asian market.

  • I love this tut! :D You're really very pretty and you have gorgeous eyes. I love this look as well, very classic and gorgeous. :D

  • what song is this?

  • My Heart Belongs to Daddy- Eartha Kitt

  • thank you very much

  • that was what i was looking for... thanks Amy B :)

  • ooohh you are damnn sexyy

  • you look very pretty ^_^

  • amy do you know of another mac or even napoleon blush that is very similar to the mac "foolish me" blush that u wore in this video? i tried to find the "foolish me" blush on the mac website, but it doesn't seem to be available anymore. : /

  • Oh crap, I keep meaning to do this!!! Everytime I go to the mac store!!! See i get to the mac store and get all excited, spend too much money and leave without checking out an alternate blush!!! I'll look next time I'm out, and I'll post the answer in my second instalment of my FAQ's video.

  • what are you?

    Your skin is so pretty.

    Like heritage wise

  • Thank you. My Mum is German, and my dad is Indonesian.

  • Can you reuse the false eyelashes or are they like a one time thing?

  • You can reuse them a few times. I can get about 3-4 wears out of them if I maintain them properly. Enkoremakeup has a good tutorial on cleaning lashes. I personally use a good oil based makeup remover and gently brush over the lashes with the soaked tissue. And I pick off the glue with tweezers.

  • the fake eyelashes and eye liner have always been a problem for me so thank you for showing us about that!

  • I LOOOVE the music in your videos! :-D Fun Fun Fun, hehe

  • Hey, how about making an Old Hollywood Hairstyle video? That would be cool.

  • what song was playing?

  • My Heart Belongs to Daddy- Eartha Kitt...

    the other songs are listed in the description text to the right of the video. Click on the "more info" button.

  • does it hurt when you take off the false eyelashes?

  • Not at all. Check out my Frequently Asked Questions video. I talk about it abit there.

  • you ae so gorgeous and you always seem so flirty when you talk

  • I had no idea what you were talking about, but it made me feel all warm and fuzzy.

  • Thank you. I have a music channel too, if you haven't seen it already... my channel name is aben3084. I am a singer songwriter. I have a front page YT feature at the moment, although I really dont like that song!!!! Check out Crash Fall, that's my fave.

  • amy, i love this look. you really have mastered the glamour of old hollywood makeup!

    i do have to say though that..one of the problems i encountered in trying to achieve this look was the application of the liquid liner. would it be possible for you to do a tutorial on how you apply your liquid liner? how and where do you wing it outwards?

  • Thanks for the instructions! I have to wear false eyelashes for performances & struggle with it every time... (Now that I know the glue to the hand trick, things are gonna change!!)

    I wish you had shown the liner application as well, as it turned out so beautifully. I rather botch mine...

  • I talk about liquid liner in my "Frequently Asked Questions" video, and I use liquid liner in every single video! Also check out the "Turquoise Cat Eye" video for more discussion on it. I do want to do an eyeliner tute though, cos I get so many questions on it!!! Thanks for subbing too!

  • Hi Amy,

    You are so beautiful, I love all of your looks and thank you for the wonderul inspiration. Keep them coming!

  • Amy, love your makeup videos!! So well done, and also, your hair is so beautiful (I have very fine hair and am envious!). I am trying to master the art of applying false eyelashes and love the glamour look..great!!!

  • I LOVE Dita Von Teese and I LOVE pinup artwork and this whole look reminds me of those old paintings and photographs and so do you. :)

    Maybe you kinda look like a cuter version of Bette Page? Yeah!

  • Have you seen my Vintage Pinup Girl Makeup video? I did it recently.

  • You are too cute for words. Thanx for the make up tips. That was my first lesson in eye lashes. Ever.I always wanted to use them but was a little nervous of looking silly but you didn't make it look silly at all. Your divalicious! Heehee!

    Oh and so is you accent.

  • Gosh you're beautiful.

  • love all ur videos!!

  • can i use this look for a nyt out ryt?!like clubbing!?amy lov!?

  • I would definitely wear this out clubbing.

  • hey amy!

    i was wondering, how would you take the

    eyelashes off? do you just.. kinda pull it

    off?

  • Check out my Frequently Asked Questions video. Thanks!

  • Hi...I will be attempting to apply false lashes on my daughter for Halloween, is there a particular glue you would recommend? Also if the lashes need to be trimmed, should this be done from the inner or outer part of the lashes?

    Thank, sandie

  • Hi Sandie... you want to trim from the outside. Take off a little at a time till you get the length you want. The lashes should extend slightly past the natural lashline. And for glue, I use Lashgrip or you could use Ardell Duo (i'm pretty sure that's the name of it). I'm not too sure where you can buy glue where you are, I usually have to go to a makeup store like Mac or Napoleon.

  • i want to attempt this eyelash business - it looks so cute on you and a lot of fun ... 1 question tho - if you wear contacts do you have to be more careful with what sort of glue you use or how you put them on?

  • Regardless of whether I am wearing contacts or not, I want to make sure I am using a good quality glue like Lashgrip or that Ardell Duo stuff... I think that's what it's called. In fact anything close to my eye, I make sure is good quality, because my eyes are quite sensitive.

  • SO USEFUL, AMY! FINALLY, I have discovered how to put my false eyelashes on properly! THANKS!

  • Wow. You are beautiful, and I love your accent! (I realize you probably don't think you have an accent!) Very detailed instructions. I will be watching all of your videos, and trying everything.

  • Hahahha! It's true. You guys are the ones with the accent!!! Hehhee. But thank you!

  • You just gently tug them off, and they peel right off. The glue is very gentle. So it won't rip out your eyelashes or skin or anything like that.

  • Thanks so much! I'm going to try your tips tonight!

  • I really big full lips.. so would it look weird if I wore all that red lip stick?

  • I would go for a more berry red darker lipstick. That way it won't stand out as much. The lighter or brighter the lipstick, the bigger your lips with look.

  • You Look so Gorgeous !!! Even without makeup. I've never tried false eyelashes but after watching this I think I should. Thankyou my friend :-)

  • Thank you! False eyelashes are so much fun! When we were filming my Vintage Pinup Girl video, my model and I were remarking how instantly glamorous and girly you feel with false eyelashes on!

  • hi amy i have a question? im going to be dressing up for halloween as goldie locks and im not too sure what colors to apply to my face, my costume has yellow and white? its a sort of sexy costume and was thinking about doing a blue eye ir maybe blending pink with yellow? but i would love to hear ur oppinion? i have lots of bright colors, such as green blue purple pink and also yellow there not by mac but there a real good quality? please gu=ive me some advice. thanks- julie- :)

  • I am planning on uploading a Dolly Makeup video this evening (if all goes well with time today). I would follow these principles. It's not too over the top, sort of doll influence. I've done bright lips, but you might want to wear pinks.

  • what song is in the beginning, it sounds so nice.

  • My Heart Belongs to Daddy- Eartha Kitt

  • umm,where did u get those old hollywood songs?

  • Here and there. Look for people like Eartha Kitt, Marilyn Monroe, Nat King Cole, Brigitte Bardot, Blossom Dearie, etc. It's lounge music or jazz from the 50s and 60s.

  • thanks

    Love Ya!

    HL

  • This girl is an absolute knock out.

    What a doll!

  • Sheesh, I am falling in love with your make-up tips! I've been pondering on how to do all these for quite a long time. Do you think since I'm 14 I could pull off some of these looks? I feel like it might be too dramatic for my parental units! Haha. But, thanks so much. This is exactly what I need! I greatly appreciate your Audrey Hepburn look too!

  • Definitely too much makeup for a 14 year old!!!! I am going to do a series of videos for teen girls. I am just having problems getting a model. If you did want to do something a little more dramatic but still understated, I think the Audrey look is pretty cool for that.

    And thanks for your comments! I really appreciate it!

  • wow;-)you are SO beautiful!!

    HUN...WHAT BRAND OF LIQUID EYELINER IS THAT?!hope u can help me...cause i really dont know how to apply liquid eyeliner&what brand is the best to use!...!!;-)thankz pretty

  • The liquid liner is by Shiseido and it's my fave of all time. Mum and I have been using this particular product for over 10 years. Even when I've tried others, I've never been as happy as I am with this.

    And just so you know.... I always list the products I use in the description text to the right of the video. Just click on the "more" button.... incase there is anything else you were interested in.

  • how do u clean your fake eyelashes?

    some girls i know never re-use theirs and always bought new supplies & some, well..

    I wanna know how to clean my fake eyelashes...

    =D

  • I use a good makeup remover, an oil based one. I use Mac. It's only about $20. I put the product on a tissue, and then gently wipe the lashes, being careful not to ruin the shape. Once all mascara is cleaned off, then I use tweezers and pick off any excess glue.

  • omg thank you so much for this video =) i've got my prom coming up and i would love to do my make up like yours =) fist i need to clear my skin though =( but thanks anyway!! your gorgeous!!

  • I am actually going to do a series of videos, just after halloween that are makeup ideas for prom/formals since it's coming to that season in Australia. When is prom?

  • its in about 2 weeks =) so im pretty excited !! thank you!!

  • about how long does false eyelashes last?

  • Firstly, my foundation video is coming soon. Early this week.

    And false eyelashes... it really depends on how well they've been maintained, cleaned, whether they lose their shape, the quality of them. I'm going to address this in a false eyelash video!

  • What brand of lashes are those? I really want to buy those exact ones! Great video. xxx

  • Hi! Thanks for subscribing!

    Umm... the lashes were Mac ones. I bought them because the drugstore ones I usually get weren't there. I unfortunately can't remember the product no. that they were because I bought 2 pairs that day. It was either a #1 or #3

  • i always have a hard time putting on lashes, but seeing this vid, may help me when i buy some more:)

  • You are very pretty.. hot! thnks for ur vid!

  • I loooove your videos!!!

  • great video, just like all the others!! you are one talented girl!! :)

  • wow found some1 that loves makeup haha i assume

    like me in

    australiaaa!!!

    go go go aus =)

  • Good tip with the red-blue hue of lipstick! It does make your teeth appear whiter, I use a lipgloss with a very faint blue color instead of a red lipgloss!! :)

  • Awesome, great video.

  • I love your old hollywood glamour look, and your accent is really nice. English with a hint of Australian?

  • No... outright Australian. It's a very Sydney city accent, I guess.

  • Beautiful ;)

  • Your accent reminds me of Hermione from Harry Potter

  • Hahhaha... I'm Australian! But what a compliment. At least my accent is nice enough it could pass for English!!!! Thank you very much for your kind words!!!

  • You look beautiful with no makeup on!

  • i love your videos, they're great! i was wondering, do you reuse the lashes even with the mascara on it? how do you clean them for the next wear? thanks in advance!

  • I just gently rub the lashes between two tissues with heaps of eye makeup remover cream... I use a l'oreal one... Lancome have the best makeup remover though!

  • I think you do a great job on your videos!! You're also very pretty. Keep up the good work! =0)

  • Fabulous!! Thank you so much!

  • I love this look thanks!!

  • pretty pinup doll!!!

  • Pour ceux qui veulent voir plein de photos de la belle dita allez sur mon skyblog et laisser moi vos commentaires pour avoir vos avis

    "dita-glam-style.skyblog"

    bisous :)

  • what color is the lip liner?

  • bee-yoo-tee-full!!

  • Hi, where did you get the page layout love it!

  • oh ok, thanks for answering my question =)!

  • thanks for posting this vid up. i really needed help with the false eyelashes. by the way, does the type of fake eyelash matter? like if you get a $3 pair of false eyelashes do they not really go on as opposed to MAC eyelashes?

  • I was actually looking for a drugstore brand the day I went to buy the lashes, but the shop I go to was out! There is no problem buying a cheap pair. Just look for good shapes and styles. I've got a pair of Mac ones that are better than the drugstore ones, but some of the drug store ones are better than the Mac ones!

  • Lovely hair, can you put some vids on how you do your hair?

  • you look great! love this look.

  • australian or english accent?

    Thanks for the eye lash tip =)

  • Australian!

  • Nice haha, I'm Australia too =)

    Iono, couldn't tell.. sound different.

  • Yeah..... I have a very Sydney accent I guess!

  • its the funky music again! you have nice music in your videos and I like your accent to :P yer so pretty too and its great how you're making makeup videos for the eras such as the 50's and 60's cause I love those old eras :P

  • Do you ever use individual lashes? I have very little eye lashes and love that full eye lash look, and never seem to put the lashes on right... I am gonna try again after watching this video though. Thanks for the tips. :)

  • Hi! Thanks for your comments!

    I do use individual lashes. When I was in my late teens, it was the trend for my friends and myself!!!! We went crazy with them. They are great for adding a bit of drama to your eye, without being too over the top.

    I'm going to do a few looks with different types of falsies... as it depends on the style of the lash, what makeup you go with. I love this retro, full and fat lash look.

  • What are you talking about?

    She doesn't look slutty at all!

    I think this makeup makes her look even classier than usual.

    She looks gorgeous even without makeup, but she certainly doesn't look 'slutty'.

  • Yeah..... I'm going to delete that comment. Some people can be so nasty. The thing is this look is a stylised look. It's for special occasions... who on earth what wear that day in and day out!

    But thank you so much for looking out for me! It's really very kind of you.

  • No problem at all.

    Some people are just jealous.

    & as for your question 'who would wear that day in and day out?' - look up Dita Von Teese ;]

    oh and me, if I could pull it off haha x

  • i need to get some contacts like yours. What color do you have? and what's your natural eye color?just wondering..chao-nina

  • Hi Nina... I use Freshlook Colours in Grey. And my natural eye colour is black! You see my natural eyes for the most part of the Flirty Date Makeup Tutorial!

    Thanks for your comments.

  • Oh my, I love your adorable accent! :)
