Great vid! I wear anything that looks good on me..Ive been fortunate that my skin is not sensitive and I can wear whatever I like......message well delivered and received..thanks
I know someone that is kind of stuck and will not vary from her makeup brand. What makes that bad to me is because she can barely afford it. I tried to tell her to try other things..but she refuses and will not pay a bill to get the brand of make up she wears.
Honestly , I do get bored when people only use MAC stuff. There are so many brands out there , that it is kinda boring to just stick to the same brand . And for me , MAC does not work for me , I find their eyeshadows to be a bit chalky, and their lipglosses burn the hell out of my lips .
I feel the same way!! I've always been obsessed with MAC but thanks to all the beautiful ladies on here that have opened me up to new brands :) and just like you ya grab anything you already got to recreate a look :)
Omg, revlon color stay is the best, just like NubianLockedPrincess said. I am new to MAC and before I used tons of other products. I always used the cheapy stuff and then I found MAC and I was like...holy moly! This stuff stays on!! You can use anything though and make it work. Thanks so much for your sub!! You have a great heart, I can see it when you talk to your subscribers.
Yes, I know what you mean. I started with MAC. I tried all of MACs foundation over the course of a year getting into makeup again. No one foundation worked for me. I mix foundations now. MAC studio fix liquid: NC50 and Revlon color stay: caramel. Mixing these products produced the perfect color with no oil break through with my very oily skin. Other than foundation, anything goes!
I LOVE Mac and I LOVE other brands as well. The thing that catches my eye in regards to watching MU vids is the creativity, the person, etc...not the brand. I will admit that Mac is not cheap but there are some things that I will ALWAYS purchase from that line such as FIX PLUS. There are some things that I will never buy from Mac again such as clear lipglass because I have found the same thing from the WET N WILD line for $3. Use what works 4 you be it MAC, NARS, ELF, COVER GIRL, RIMMEL, etc!
Exactly. You gotta do what you can with what you have. I have seen many of your personal videos as well as many others that show comparable products to the Mac line.
I love your response to this question! I couldn't agree with you more. MAC is my first love but I have enough room in my heart to try out other brands too! Luv your vids!
I like MAC, I use other products like UD, MUFE, and NARS. I use what works best for me. MAC is my number one because one I see it tor hear about it first. It was the first line where I felt like I could learn some useful tips, and some years ago, it was the only brand that matched my complextion really well, now you can go for the matte look, dewy look, sheer look. I remember you only went with the look that could match your complextion. Thanks for the response
You're sooo right in terms of Mac having some of the most diverse products all in one line. I'm happy that there are soo many other great lines out there that are on the come up so to speak. Thank YOU for posting your opinion!
i totally agree with you, its not a big deal when people make videos using only MAC products. however, i have a slight issue with people that ONLY do reviews on MAC products or very expensive products. its like, hey, i dont have that kind of money, you know?
but on another note, its really not my business to go and bother them about it like "hey you suck b/c you dont review inexpensive stuff" because really what it comes down to is just me not subscribing to them or me not watching their videos.
*Claps* Standing ovation for your comment and very well Also, unless the people doing the reviews are YT partners to where they may be receiving free stuff to review....we commoners are still spending our own $ to buy, use and review these products. I appreciate the points you've made and I thank you for posting them!
If you like makeup as well as learning new techniques watching makeup video or someone who uses only M.A.C procducts is not boring. While viewing the video you can find a like color to the one that person is using. That is what I do. Hope this helps someone.
Great minds think alike....I was just commenting to another subbie that watching vids gives me the INSPIRATION I need to play with my own makeup, lol! Thanks for watching!
good to see you. unfortunately, i've been getting bored with people who only talk about makeup. it seems that if you've seen/heard 'em once, you've seen/heard 'em all. fortunately, i don't seem to get bored watching you...perhaps it's because you keep me interested. i have ventured out of the mac box too....i really have to stop watching so many videos lol....but not yours.
Heyyy now that's a topic worth discussing! I believe and always have that you have to be interesting and I strive to do that in my vids by just keeping it 100%. I appreciate you for hanging in there with me in all that I try to bring to the YT! *warm fuzzies* to ya!
You're the best Shaggy.....now I know you DON'T wear makeup but you ALWAYS stop by and support a sista! That's what I'm talking bout....SUPPORT!! Thank u so much!
Great response KOKO! I appreciate people using MAC as well as other brands b/c being new to the mkup world I am finding out about products that I knew very little about. I sample from all brands to find what works best for me! Luv ya!
Thank u darling! That's exactly what you have to do...sample and find what works best for you...there are quite a few Mac products that I bought this year alone that in my opinion were a waste of money but I still buy and love Mac, just like it's other brands that I've tried that I don't like. Makeup is all trial and error. Thanks for posting your opinion!
Thank u, thank u sis! Now those are my $1 beauty supply store specials girl. Only meant to be worn a coupla' times before they turn all shades of green, LoL shhhhhh don't tell nobody!
For me it's not a matter of boredom, but everyone can't afford MAC. When I see people use MAC I just look for a more affordable dupe that will give me a similar look.
Again, another great point of the matter. I didn't mention that detail but it is what it is and a lot of people can't afford Mac's prices and that's fine....ya have to get what you can afford and make it do what it do! Thanks so much for posting your opinion!
LoL, Koko said chile...no disrespect to anyone who chooses to use all of Mac or all of Hip...at the end of the day...I'm inspired to try the look with what I have in my makeup stash ya dig?! LoL Thanks for watching!
I love MAC, simply because as a new beginner I am rarely disappointed with the outcome when I use MAC products I see others use on here. I am obsessed with MAC, my bank account will echo this, lol! Mac is Crack! But that's only because I haven't ventured out to other brands. Hopefully soon cuz being broke isn't cute! Anyhoo, I tell you this with every comment I post but you are sooo beautiful.
Aw, *hugs* thank you sooo very much for ALWAYS being so kind and sweet. Your opinion speaks volumes to me b/c that's exactly how I was. To be honest, I think the only other reason I have slacked up on buying so much Mac is now I get the 40% macpro discount. I'm rarely breathing down the necks of the MUA's at my local counter b/c I do all ordering online. Even with the discount can u believe that I don't buy as much?! Crazy right...n e whoo I thank u for your honesty!
great points and topic! I'm going to vid response w/ my latest splurge vs steal because this is the main reason i started that series is to show that you can achieve the same look high end of low end! well spoken as always dear
Hey gurl! Again, thank you for stopping by and although this response is late, I've already posted your splurge vs steal vid....I adore that series by the way. You break it all the way down so who can' t appreciate you for the hard work you do in finding those low end vs high end deals! Much love to ya gurl and keep on doing what you do!
My point exactly....there's no need to run out and get EVERYTHING someone uses in a vid...work with what you have and if it's not something you see your self spending the $ on...find the alternative. Thanks for your response!
I agree with you there is so much to love thats why we are addicts.
I find each brand has something that each person can like and for me discovering MAC and using all the others some of what you mentioned I can honestly say I pick MAC as number one for me but love discovering new things in the videos.
You hit the nail on the head and I agree with you as well! I don't know about you for that dam Erin Scandalous Beauty started me on tryna go out and purchase everything she mentioned, lol...that was until I started trying things and gathering my own opinions. Some you're gonna agree with and some you're not which leads back to preference! I appreciate your response sis!
I totally agree with you sis! We have enough beauty and makeup in the world to do whatever we love! To me it's more about the inspiration and beauty rather than the products one chooses to use.
Ooh inspiration! Now that's a big word that I failed to mention in my vid. I have sooo much stuff that I actually WATCH YT vids for inspiration to play in the makeup I own so I feel ya! Thanks for posting your opinion!
i agree with you about preference and as always, you crack me up :-)
wanted to know if you'd be interested in entering my contest. i'm trying to find a camera to purchase so i can start doing vids. for the camera i purchase, the one who did a vid response recommending that camera will win makeup. also, i like the quality of your vids, so i was just wondering. thanks! hope you don't mind me posting this here.
Why hello there! I will stop by and check out your contest indeed. FYI I use the Canon SD750 it has a ton of Pros and the ONLY con I have is that it DOES NOT have an auto focus when recording my vids so when I want to show the product packaging up close...it's blurry and doesn't focus =( Other than that...it's a great camera!! NO problem at all...thank YOU for watching!
No problem girl! I should have included how uninspired I get with my OWN stuff that I've accumulated over a 2 year time span, LoL. I actually watch YT vids to GAIN inspiration to play with most of my stuff when I don't have a wedding party scheduled. I appreciate your question and response!
I think that alot of people love mac because they offer a great selection for everyone but even more so things that work for women of color. I could careless what products a person uses as long as the end result is fierce!
Great vid! I wear anything that looks good on me..Ive been fortunate that my skin is not sensitive and I can wear whatever I like......message well delivered and received..thanks
