[paradisethebeauty100]

[vlcerqueira1]

loved it! can you do a Blush Crush on Frankly Scarlet!??

[lilant215]

what do you use to recored your videos

[kalincaroline]

Nice Neutral Makeup

[lustfulintrigue]

Please do a hair tutorial soon I absolutely love this hair and style on you!

[toomuchformyself]

In one of your tuts from last year you used mineralize skinfinish, but in your more recent tuts you use the prep and prime finishing powder. Is there a differece in the finish? Why do you prefer one over the other?

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@toomuchformyself I love finishing with mineralize skin finish for a very subtle glow, but for a matte face I love the prep&prime finishing powder. The p&p finishing powder also diffuses the makeup and makes your skin look almost flawless. I don't think that u can go wrong with either, it just depends on your preference :-)

[Its29Me1]

Hey Miss Lady! I want to let you know what a blessing you are to me, watching your videos has given me a step up in applying makeup..From one african sister to another, you go Girl!

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@Its29Me1 awww, thank u so much. That really means a lot to me. You all have no idea what a blessing you are to me :-)

[mattiesmith1]

I love your videos! I just wish your video cambra was clear, sharp and better in focus. We can not see the colors you are using when you apply your make up. Also the lighting is casing bad shadows on your beautiful face. I will not stop watching. I just wanted to let you. God Bless

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@mattiesmith1 Thank u so much. I am looking into getting a better camera, but for now I am trying to make the best out of what I have :-)

[iamthtB00Mb00MP0W]

what brush did you use to apply your paint pot? i dont think you put it on thie vid

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@iamthtB00Mb00MP0W I can't remember the name of the brand. It was included in my first set of brushes that I got like 5 years ago :-)

[houstonempress86]

[amocha82]

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@amocha82 Thank u so much. That was a deal compared to the regular price. Good job :-)

[STiprincess]

This is a hot look! Love the blush. What software do u use to edit?

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@STiprincess Thank you so much. I use iMovie and Final Cut sometimes :-)

[bhappi2007]

You look fabulous !!

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@bhappi2007 Thank you so much :-)

[bhappi2007]

@SongbirdDiva4Life your welcome =)

[XXTheIslandBeautyXX]

Beautiful as ever! Drop dead gorgeous.

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@XXTheIslandBeautyXX Thanks girl, but you must be looking in the mirror when u are talking about drop dead gorgeous :-)

[ExtendedStudent4Real]

I was one of the many requestees of this look, becauses sometimes with AA skin you end up getting neutrals that are too dark, too ash, or just too much shimmer. Thanks for sharing!

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@LilzP100 Thank u so much :-)

[jjoywilliams]

you are so beautiul and i get so many great beauty tips from your videos, thank you so much miss songbird!!

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@jjoywilliams Thank u so much :-)

[kimbooo1]

[maxxnout]

[BlackOrchidVibe]

Soooo pretty! You r so beautiful! Much Luv and God Bless! :O)

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@BlackOrchidVibe Thank u so much, God Bless You too :-)

[shany9988]

Very nice. I love Dark orangey blushes too.

That blush was nice

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@shany9988 Thank u. Orange blushes are the bomb...lol :-)

[mzbrwnsugar2007]

I'm so happy you are back with us. We are the same color, so I love what you wear, so then I know what I need to buy. I am loving the burnt pepper, so I will have to find that color. Keep the videos coming!!

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@mzbrwnsugar2007 Thank u so much. I am glad to be back and I will definitely keep the vids coming :-)

[ninapruitt]

Your foundation is always so flawless and natural looking, what do you use....Primer, Foundation, Powder???

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@ninapruitt Thank u so much. I use MAC spf 50 or Murads mattifier as a primer, for foundation it varies (depends on my mood and the occasion), I use Revlon Colorstay, or MAC studio tech, or makeupforever hd, or MAC face and body. fFor foundation I like MAC studio fix powder or MAC loose powder, or black opal translucent powder, and I always finish it off with MAC prep&prime finishing powder :-)

[usa8056]

You are just soooo pretty and adorable. Fresh, young, pretty...great look

Question: Have you thought about using the Make Up Forever finishing powder...It is 100% silica as oppose to silica and cornstarch as MAC. Also what foundation are you using. Your opinion. MAC vs Make Up Forever vs NARS.

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@usa8056 aww, Thank u sooo much :-)

Yes, I have used the Makeupforever finishing powder but I didn't really like it so I ended up returning it to Sephora. I don't mind that MAC has cornstarch in it because it does help absorb the oil. The only problem with cornstarch in makeup is when people don't wash off their makeup before falling asleep. The cornstarch then makes it a breeding ground for bacteria on the face, but I wash my makeup off every night.

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@usa8056 Right now my foundation choice varies depending on my mood and occassion. It could be anything from MAC studio tech to Revlon Colorstay to Makeupforever HD to MAC face and body. They are all good to me in different ways.

I really can't decide between the three because there are products that I love and dislike from each.

[Sexygurl027]

why do u keep sayin ur dark ur brown. now if u wanna see dark go outside at night time

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@Sexygurl027 lol, I see your point :-)

[TheLadyoflace]

Hi luv yur vids and the whole application of your makeup; when I tried the false lashes they made my eyes feel heavy is that normal for first timers or do I have the wrong kind?

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@TheLadyoflace it is absolutely normal. U must remember that your eyes are used to having no extra weight on them, so when u add lashes for the first couple of times, your eyes will notice the weight difference, but the more you use false lashes, the more your eyes will adjust to the weight :-)

[HoneybunzBeauty]

thanks girl i love this one!! im darker too (nc50) and i feel like i NEED Chestnut Liner in my life lol

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@HoneybunzBeauty U definitely do, but just so u know NYX has a chestnut lipliner that is very comparable (I actually have it), but I would definitely but the MAC one again :-)

[destine2grow]

Thanks for doing the look again. I really love it.I am a neutral diva!

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@destine2grow no problem :-) I love my neutral divas. I am one too....depending on my mood lol :-)

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@LovelyLadyL81 Thank u so much. It's more of a review than a tut though :-)

[vero717]

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@vero717 Thank u so much, I am so glad to be back :-D

[7lyrique]

THAT'S PRETTY!!

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@7lyrique Thank u :-)

[thankfulandblessed]

Is showstopper similar to embark? Trying to figure out what I can substitut for the brown.

[MakeupOnABudget]

@thankfulandblessed try jane brownie points e/s. it's a dupe for mac's embark.

[sss215]

@thankfulandblessed showstopper is a dark black brown. test mystery. maybe handwritten if you can. showstopper will be in a MAC palette later this year. they need to make it perm. its re-promoted all the time.

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@thankfulandblessed not really. Embark is more of a warm red brown, while showstopper is more of a cool yellow brown, but depending on your complexion embark shouldn't be a problem :-)

[suzziqq]

lace front girl...finally:)

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@suzziqq lol....I know. I've been wanting to try one for the longest :-)

[spongebbsapimp]

Lace front ? i love the hair !! omg can't wait for tutorial .

[SongbirdDiva4Life]

@spongebbsapimp Yes it is, thank u so much. It's more of a review than a tutorial though :-)

[cindypltnm]

Beautifully done. Love the finish look. I have a favor, what software do you use to speed up your videos this way? I have MS movie maker, but I would like to add this when making videos. I'm fairly new with making vids, but I will be making alot more and doing speed up process would help.
