Even 12 months ago, this would not be a video we would ever have considered – but how things have changed! Makeup artist, Katie, has created a makeup class to show her secrets for keeping your makeup on your face (and not all over your mask!) as well as an eye look to make the most of your eyes.

This video was created pre-lockdown but Charlotte’s tips and tricks could prove invaluable to prevent expensive mistakes.

Caroline Barnes is one of the UK’s most established and celebrated makeup artists. Her Speed Beauty videos are short and concise and are packed full of beauty knowledge   This video is  specifically aimed at those struggling through the menopause and not knowing where to start with makeup. Hormonal shifts during the menopause means that some of our tried and tested usual makeup now doesn’t work for us anymore. Primer, longwear foundation and not using red lipsticks or blushers are a just few tips that Caroline talks through in this tutorial.

There are many reasons that Wayne Goss is not your typical YouTube makeup star – the first of which is that he’s male!   He also speaks openly about ageism in the beauty industry and how they can make women over 40 feel invisible.   He is very matter of fact and, with him, it’s all about the technique and explaining it very succinctly.  If you suffer from dark circles, bags, puffiness, signs of ageing or pigmentation under your eyes, you’re definitely not alone. This concealer technique may  transform the way you do concealer!

Nadine Baggott has been a health and beauty expert for 30 years on magazines, newspapers and TV.  Here she is  talking to Amanda Lamb – of the Scottish Widows ad and A Place in the Sun fame.  This is her school run make-up routine which, apparently, she has down to 5 minutes.  As Nadine says it’s probably the most glam school run look ever – but she uses a toothbrush to do her eyebrows so it’s definitely not hi-tech!

There has to be a reason that this video has been viewed over 15 million times.  Ali Andrea is a makeup artist based in Paris and here she shows the two different results you could get using the same products.  You may be using the world’s best make up, but if you don’t use the proper technique, then it’s not going to to look good.
