I love this perspective, all these questions made me think. Great video, Amanda!!! 🥰

Please, make the video. Love you❤

I love this, agree with so much of it. One of my beauty resolutions was to spend my money on more shades of the products I love (like Lisa Eldridge Liquid Lurex eyeshadow) rather than trying other more affordable versions or dupes. Also to lean in to medium coverage base and not buy the latest skin tint.

I’ve recently come to realise that the Nudestix products really do look great on me and works very well with my skin so now I just save my money to buy more Nudestix ❤❤❤❤

All of your ideas are great. Would love to see one on how to make trends work for seniors who want to remain current.

Something about your eye makeup today is so pretty... ❤❤❤

Excellent topic... thank you for helping us THINK about what we really like and use! I have so many items I was happy to get (impulse, FOMO, viral) but I keep going back to the same range of colors and looks so I'm not using those others items. I'm much more thoughtful when buying now... not every time... but I try harder to not get pulled into things out of my style! 💜

Love your content. ❤

Going back to a product that was influenced by a beauty creator was when I purchased the rms re dimensional blush in shade maidens blush because you talked about it and the shade was soo stunning and it's so beautiful in person. It's become my favorite blush the shade and formula and it's been used a ton for my makeup routine and I know I love it since I have plenty of other blushes I know it's one of my favorites and worth the money

I love beauty content that isn't about new releases!

love all your videos been a subscriber for years <3 would love to see a video on your favorite blurring powders

Hi Amanda, I know what I like and I never follow trends❤️

I enjoyed this video! I’ve come to a lot of the same conclusions as you (after years of FOMO purchases and debt to show for it). I know what I like and what looks good on me. I don’t need to buy everything I see on RUclips or Instagram. It’s hard sometimes to resist the urge to buy stuff. I took a picture of all the makeup I bought in the first half of the year and was happy with 99% of the choices. Please do more videos like this, it’s helping people like me.

Very thought provoking. I have always gone with what I like and not what is popular to follow the crowd. Too many influencers are just out there to get people to buy what products they have codes connected to their channel.

I really like the emphasis on preference and style, and the idea of staying true to yourself in a storm of trends presented in this video, and the tips/aspects you share are critical in helping people identify their styles and what might be needed to maintain a signature look! But I think that, unlike a capsule clothes collection, makeup is inherently ephemeral since it is consumed. The fact the products expire or get used up necessitates a constant (if slower than we see/expect) turnover which works against the idea of timelessness... I think it's okay to accept that, like trends, makeup in your life will inevitably come and go

Thank you, Amanda, for all the HAER work you do for us

hi amanda! ur one of my fave beauty creators ever i legit trust ur taste in everything. u also seem to have good music taste! id love to check ur spotify playlist if u have one? <3

Since I'm 47 & have been wearing makeup since around age 11-12, my tastes & preferences have really been cyclical. I might enjoy creative colorful makeup for years & do "wild" looks & then suddenly enjoy wearing liner, mascara & lip balm only for years. For me, timeless is the tones I'm always drawn to; cool toned neutrals, "nude"/neutral blush, glossy lips with little color or cool toned color. The makeup items I absolutely blow through no matter what are mascara, brow products, liner, lip balm/gloss! It's always been this way since 30 some odd years ago! 😅

Yes make the video i always love your well thought out discussion topics❤😊

Great video

Loved everything about this and reasons like these are why I like your channel so much. Makeup can be excess, trendy, and maximalist, but it doesn’t have to be and we can still be beauty obsessed. I’ve been persistent trying to curate my own makeup collection for me, not trends. Especially since learning my color season and trying to lean into my personal style, I just want it to be timeless for me always. I agree with a lot of your statements and I hope you can make more videos like this in the future! TY 🥰

Like so many previous comments have said, this was a fantastic video, Amanda! This notion would make for a great series. Every potential video topic you floated in this video I would love to see. Please do more of this!!! ❤❤❤

Dupes never work for me.

This vid is everything! It was so brave of you to put out this content. Something that everyone who wears makeup can relate to. Something that isn’t focussed on getting us to buy the latest thing. Instead, great content to get us to think about our relationship to makeup, how it makes us feel, and what about ourselves that we’re trying to project. Thank you for this! ♥️♥️♥️

I'm over 40 and I always have smokey 👁️. If anyone knows a matte smokey eye palette containing grey, Black and white, please let me know. My YSL Grey palette is discontinued.

Those Drunk Elephant bronzing drops were awful. I tried them multiple times. Your eyeliner is stunning!

I'd like to add one more point: Understand that your style & beauty needs will change over time. For example, the concealer that you love at 25 years old may not work for you as well at 35. So don't be afraid to reassess how things work for you & what your needs are periodically, & to get rid of things that you may love but that no longer serve you very well anymore. Nothing stays the same forever, & that's okay - just remember that you won't, either.

Love this so much, thank you!

I have more makeup than AlOT of Influencers. I barely even wear makeup, anymore. It’s so dumb. I need to quit wasting money. I give stuff away constantly. It all makes no sense. Seriously. Am I buying it for me or other people? 😂 I need to go through it all and figure this out.

CT Magic Cream. Nothing compares to it for me.

This video is so timely for me. Yes, please, do a talk about selecting cosmetics that reflect our authentic selves. For most of my adult life I delighted in expressing versions of myself through makeup and I enjoyed the makeup itself. I want to come back to that after abandoning that “hobby” for over a decade. But this time I want to do it with minimal consumption. Unfortunately, I am disappointed in much of what I’ve bought in the last year. The products are wonderful but wrong for me. For one thing it turns out that I can no longer abide glitter, no matter how subtle. Any guidance on sorting out what my new standards are will be greatly appreciated.

Loved this ❤❤❤❤❤

Really interesting video, thanks! PS the red blush trend was made for you! It doesn't suit me personally but I can enjoy seeing it on others and get inspired to find a shade that will flatter my skin tone in a similar way. That is part of the joy of watching makeup content, it's inspiring :)

Amanda, your questions were on point. Best! Video I’ve seen ❤ please give us more on the topic of makeup products to invest in.

this is such a good video omg

great vid, shiseido eyelash curler has been my go to for over a decade. but what's going on with the eyelash pad replacement??? It's been sold out for a while now. I ended up purchase a brand new one just because I really needed a fresh pad. Now I feel like it does not work the same. It doesn't curl my eyelashes the same and the curl won't last. Same mascara. So wild, I hope they restock soon.

👋 Amanda. I am in the middle of finding my personal style again after not wearing anything but mascara for years. I'm 55 and finding what works for my skin has been interesting. Spent way too much money playing with colors and textures and formulas but I think I have it down. As for your hair it's lovely we have almost the same color hair, on camera it's hard to tell but I think mine is a wee bit lighter. I was told the same thing for my younger years that I should dye it but I never have either.

Thank you thank you🙌🫶. What a great video. I'm older so I feel I am ALWAYS on the search for make up base products that people talk about being so flattering. I'm NOW starting to be good at taking the advice from people around my same age or the ones who speak my make up language which I feel you do❤. I've been sooooo bad with fomo and feeling a lot like I already have something that works well and I don't need to try anything new. But I also do (rarely) find new things I'm happy I discovered sooo 🥴🤑

Hands down one of the best beauty content creators of all time… YOU KILL IT EVERY TIME! We love you

I really appreciate this Amanda. I was about to purchase another eyeshadow palette I don’t need because I’ve been watching too many videos that suggest wearing reddish shades that will make my eye color pop. I already know what flatters me and isn’t red. At 73 red around the eye just makes me look more tired than I already am. Speaking of red, I just want to say that I LOVED your recent red blush video. I’d been waiting for the perfect red forever and thanks to you, I found it with the Armani cheek tint. I’m anxious to do a little weeding out after this. Even at my age I remain a makeup addict and have way more than I need. But I really only love and treasure a few things from every category.

Oh my Yes!! I Absolutely adore Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base Moisturizer & Primer🥹❤️ Thank You Amanda!!

Great video! For my combination skin I'll keep: Milani eyeshadow primer (I also use it on my oily dark circles and my nose) Lash curler L'Oréal Telescopic Lift mascara Huda Beauty color corrector Huda Beauty concealer A talc free loose powder Danessa Myricks Yummy Skin Blurring Balm Powder Flushed Maybelline Super Stay Matte Ink and for those hot days the e.l.f. Stay All Night Micro-Fine Setting Mist wuuu love it ❤!

you're my absolute favourite content creator, i love seeing your posts pop up <3 i totally agree with saving up for products you know are dependable! i spent so long and so much money (probably more than if i had just bought the product!) on "dupes" for clinique black honey and just ended up buying it in the end, its such a pretty colour that in my opinion cant be duped.

I love this! I've come to realize recently that my personal style doesn't feel authentic or satisfying any more, and the question of "what makes me feel my best?" is SO important to think about. I've spent a lot of time and money on sheer to medium coverage foundation and super pigmented metallic eyeshadows, but I always feel more comfortable with concealer as foundation and a sheer-er, satiny eyeshadow. Would love to see your take on how to make trends more personal! I also would love to see something about how to change up your look for the changing seasons (or even just variety!) while still staying true to your own style.

Amanda!! Absolutely agree‼️ Thank you for this beautiful video❤️❤️❤️ At 53 i highly agree with a timeless makeup capsule! I own my holy grail products I don’t stay without creating my go to daily looks and evening dates or special occasions holidays or events-my own signature style Love it that you’re touching on this subject🏆🥇❤️💝

Great content Amanda. I'm nearing 50 & I've noticed the plethora of content surrounding what not to wear & what not to do makeup wise. Or dont do what you were doing in your 20's or 30's as you'll be trying too hard. What tripe! You hit the nail on the head when you said "do what makes you feel the best" ❤

I watch makeup videos still, but I just tried to do a full face and colorful eyes doesn't work anymore. Weight gain has made my heavy lids look heavier, and 5 years of not playing with makeup like I used to made me forget how to use it. I realize now a good bold mascara, brow brush tint, a pink tinted lip or red lipstick, and a neutral toned beige pink blush. Basically a very basic Parisienne look at 37 works on me now. I'm sad about all my colorful expensive palettes I wore, now collecting dust.

YESSSS love the content! so so important 💘
