Dear Stephanie,
I love your looks and even better: I have the same coloring as you do! The only setback: I am much older than you are. Any ideas for a more mature gal would be most appreciated.
Thanks a lot.
Hi Norma! I actually do a lot of makeups on more mature women, so i definitely know what works! I was thinking about asking my mum to be a model for me in one of my videos so that i can do a mature makeup tutorial. Would that help you? Thanks for your comment! 🙂 Stephi x
Hi Stephanie, Love your tutorials and that says alot being that I have never made it through one until yours! My niece and I are learning alot! Its been a ball watching you together…she is 15, I’m 30! I was hoping you could give me some suggestions for Steampuck makeup. My engagement party is on Halloween and we are doing Steampunk engagement photo’s next week as invites to the party! I just recently found you or I would have asked sooner! Any suggestions help! Btw…Love Motives ! Thinking about becoming a motives consult! Thanks for the suggestion!
Aw what a lovely comment! I’m so glad you ladies are enjoying the videos! You’ve probably done the photos now but if not, i would say pretty much anything goes for steampunk! I’d suggest using maroons / berry colours for the lips (matte) and a grey smokey eye. Possibly a little design on the outer corner of one eye as a little feature! P.s: Congratulations on your engagement!! xo
Thanks for the advice!!! Due to the weather it’s turned ino a two part event…yesterday being day 1! Used your contouring with powder and dark eyes, pale lips video…even though I did dark lips…lol. Also did over drawn lips and eye brows! Keeps the video coming! Big fan! Love the way you teach!
Hi, Stephanie! Your work is gorgeous and I thoroughly enjoy your tutorials! I am trying to become a makeup artist. I watched your video on you going to school for makeup education. I feel the same way you did… I know it’s not necessary, but it’s difficult to find the basic info that a beauty school would teach me. Is there anyway you could do a video on how you clean your brushes between clients? Also, what your travel makeup kit consists of? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks for all the great work you do and for sharing your gift with the world!
Hi I absolutely love your makeup tutorials!! Your makeup always looks flawless!! I have similar color skin as you .. What shade do you use in Revlon color stay foubdation??
Hi
Love your videos especially your contouring!! Could really do with investing in some good brushes could you recommended some staple items or maybe any good sets?
Hi Stephanie, I can’t get hold of you, been trying to contact you. Are you able to reply me for the Dec shoot please to confirm 🙂 You can delete this post…
hi stephanie,
i really love your tutorials, I am learning a lot. I am Indian n hav a brownish complexion. Could you suggest few make up tips for dark complexion..thanks a bunch…
Keep going..God bless.. ❤
Hi sweet! Try to make sure you use a nice highlight, something like ‘The Balm’ Mary-Lou Manizer highlight on the high points of the face, and a nice baby pink glossy lip. Also, highlight the brow bone and the inner corners of the eyes to bring light to the face! 🙂 xx
I love your videos so much and I have learned a ton! I never knew about hooded eyes or that I had them until watching your videos. I also always wore shimmery shadows and felt like a clown when I tried to put on makeup. I am now wearing matte shadows, blending and also stippling in my foundation and patting on my powder. I feel so much more confident putting on makeup now thanks to your videos. Keep on doing them, they are great:)
I first want to same that i love your you tube videos. They have been so helpful in finding better ways to apply my makeup. I was wondering if you had any suggestions for foundations for me to try. I have very pale pink undertone skin. I have oily skin and have acne scars from high school. The trouble that I am having is that my face will break out with any foundation that I have tried (liquids, powder, etc.). I try to not wear so much makeup just because I know I will break out. Any suggestions that you have would be great.
Hi Megan! Usually your skin will break out from using a new product but after a while your skin will get used to it, and the breakouts will settle down. I recommend Chanel Perfection Lumiere Velvet, that’s what i use and i really haven’t found anything that matches up to it. If you’re very pale with a pink undertone try the colour ’12 beige rose’. I apply it with a clean sponge. xx
After watching your contouring and every day glam makeup videos, I tried your techniques with the very same makeup that I already wear every day. I don’t think anyone knew what changed, but at work another woman stopped me in the break room to tell me that I “look like a model” and my husband stopped me to say “I have such a hot wife”. Well worth an extra 10 min in the morning- thank you and I hope you’ll continue to post great videos.
Hey Stephanie, I watched your nose contouring video and and noticed several people asked about the lipstick you were wearing, but I didn’t see an answer. Do you know what it was? One more question, was wondering what you use to record your videos? Thank you!
Stephanie! I just discovered your videos and I’m an instant fan. You are the makeup guru I’ve been looking for. I also have fair, oily skin with hooded eyes and a cool undertone. (I’m also a rocker, animal lover and (part) German…and get this, also named Stephanie…crazy.) I can’t wait to try out your techniques tomorrow 🙂 Thanks for doing what you do
Hi there,
You are so beautiful and have such great tips! I realized that I was rubbing my foundation in instead of stippling on the top of the skin. I am going to try out the things you mentioned:) Keep doing great things!
Stephanie, I am so hooked on your tutorials! I also have very pink, acne scarred, pale skin…just bleh. I was wondering if you have ever used or played around with Ben Nye’s Luxury Powders? I have considered them for some time and was wondering what your thoughts were on the line and if they work well with people of our similar skin tone? Keep up the good work Stephanie. Lots of love from Samantha in New Jersey, USA. ❤
I really liked your videos and blogposts. I was looking some make-up tips for my wedding and I got plenty of suggestions from you. (I am planning to do make-up by myself.) I stareted to like the idea of cool red lips, but I am afraid that I can’t kiss my newlywed husband. 🙂
So glad I found your channel. I too have fair skin and wanted to find makeup tips and tricks for such. So thank you!! I also have hooded eyes and your tutorials have changed my makeup routine for the better. Your videos are straightforward and a breathe of fresh air! One request..could you do tutorial(s) on drugstore/wallet friendly makeup products, such as; foundation, contouring products, highlighting, eyeliner, eye-shadow, etc?? Thanks! Look forward to more tutorials.
Hi Stephanie. I’ve recently started watching your tutorials and I’m completely in love with the way you do your make up!! I’ve got a few questions and not sure if you have answered any of them before or not but firstly what powder brush do you use? I can never seem to find a good one. Also your Chanel mascara is great but not very affordable. Any suggestions on good mascara thats not overly expensive? And any tips on making your natural eyelashes longer? I have got very short lashes which is very annoying.
All the best xx
Hi Stephanie! I discovered your tutorials last week and you’ve helped me a lot in learning new techniques for both my personal use and as an independent consultant for my favourite brand. So, thank you from the bottom of my makeup bag! ❤ I was hoping you could tell me though how you keep your array of brushes clean and how you avoid messing up your colour palettes by using the same brushes? I hope I've explained that properly… Thanks again and I'm tuning in regularly from now on. – Kate xxxxx
Hi Stephanie
Can’t find MAC Flawless Finish as a highlighter for brow bone & inner corners of eyes. What would you suggest I use instead please? I have heavily hooded eyes and am a mature lady with oily skin so nothing too sparkly please. I live in the UK. I have just found your videos and think they are brilliant.
I love your videos for hooded eyes 🙂 My eye are hooded and I try my hardest to make them look open and fresh. Love the tip of the light liner on the lower eyeline (lashline). Been doing this for a couple days and I look a little more awake 🙂 Visiting Sydney in April and I cannot wait to see what your country has to share 🙂
Dear Stephanie,
I have watched many of you videos and I am subscribed to your channel. I have extremely hooded lids with a low brow that are also oily and crêpey. My lids are similar to Renée Zellweger. I have such a hard time with eyeshadow and with extreme under eye creasing. Please help me!!!!
I absolutely love your videos 🙂 I also have eyes that are hooded too maybe cause I am over 50 🙂 But I still adore make-up Stephanie you are so talented .Thanks so much for doing the video with your gorgeous Mum 🙂
I am wanting to become a Make-up artist too and was wondering if you could do a video on how you decided to become one, if you took any courses/ went to a cosmetology school, what freelancing involves, if you just do make-up (or hair too etc). I have loads of questions but I think you get my idea!
I really hope you can do this for me as I know you have a busy schedule! I love your videos!
I love your videos and find them so helpful for someone (myself) who has quite hooded eyes! At 16 having hooded eyes isn’t the easiest and is constantly envy girls who don’t have them!
Anyway, I am in absolute LOVE with Acacia Brinleys November 2014 eyeshadow look! As I have hooded eyes, do I just do what she does or do I have to alter the shadow for my eyelids?
Thank you so much!
Hi Stephanie,
First of all, you’re gorgeous. I love your makeup tutorials! the reason I’m commenting is I noticed that it looks like sometimes your fingers are sore/cracked. I’ve only seen this one other time, on my sister! It took over a year but she finally found out that she is allergic to a preservative that is found in a ton of household products including lotion, soap, baby wipes, etc. Basically anything that starts with ‘meth’. I’m not sure if you already knew what was causing it but I wouldn’t want to see anyone go through what my sister has gone through. I hope I don’t offend you as I’m just trying to help. Can’t wait to watch your next video!
Love,
Caroline
I too am a Canadian fan, but unlike most of your viewers, I’m 64 yrs. old going on 30. I am about to pass on your site to five much younger women in my family. You’d think that after 51yrs. of applying makeup, I’d have a good idea of what to do. But you, young lady, have taught me more in one afternoon than I ever learned. BRAVO!!
I do have a question though: how do you disguise ‘pit scars’ that are so deep that they cast an internal, black shadow. Traditional coverups/makeup makes them look like white, infected pimples as they collect inside the ‘pit’. I have 12 in prominent places (chin, side of nose, cheekbones and apples of cheeks). Please help because they’re permanent.
I am looking forward to future tutorials eagerly. Thank you for your sweet heart and expertise. Be well.

Stephanie, I work in Sydney and would love a personal tutorial from you specific to my face. Let me know if this is possible and your rate. I think you’re an amazing MUA but I particularly love your bubbly effervescence and contagious enthusiasm about enhancing beauty! xx
I am 43 years old and have (what I just found out) awfully hooded eyes. My oldest daughter is 1 years old and her and I are learning alot about make up together. I am so grateful to have found your website, I live in Canada, but I’m an Aussie – from Sydney 😀 So hearing your accent and your adorable phrases is quite the treat.
I just wanted to say Thank YOU for your incredible tutorials on hooded eyes. I have a feeling I will be visiting your site frequently.
Love, love, love your videos, I’ve learned so much!
Would you be able to craft a video to femininize the male face for us non genetic girls? No drag, just everyday techniques to make our face look more feminine.
Hi Stephanie, I have just discovered your tutorials and am amazed at how long i have been applying my makeup incorrectly and using the worst shades for my skin tone. Last night i made a few adjustments to application and colour choices and the outcome was incredible. I have been busy looking at all your videos since to pick up more tips. Thank You!!!
Anyways, my question is…. i am now looking at investing in a brush kit and was wondering which brand you would recommend. Good quality brushes suitable for beginners. I have been looking at a Hair and Makeup Addiction Kit (The Luxury Complete Set) and the Sigma Kits (Essential Kit). What are your thoughts?
Hi Stephanie, just accidently I came across your tutorials.. Life-changing! Thank you! I finally found out about “hooded eye” make up. Do’s and Dont’s tutorial- THE BEST 😀
Thanks again and will certainly follow up your tutorials.
AgA 😀
I love your YouTube channel! I’m very new to makeup and I have a problem with my eyes, they are both hooded but one of them has life 3 folds and the other one is just hooded. I don’t know if you’ll understand my description, so basically one eye is more hooded than the other. Can you PLEASE do a video or a blog post or anything else to help me with this problem? Thx!
xoxo- jannatun
Hi Stephanie! I’ve just recently subscribed to your YouTube channel and love your videos and makeup looks. I was tired of watching tutorials of stunning looking makeup (when on cam) but totally u realistic and u wearable off cam. Your looks and videos are very natural and wearable….. So thank you for providing us with amazing looks we can actually wear in public 🙂 anyway I was also wondering which software you use to edit your videos? I will soon be launching my own makeup and hair styling company and will be offering makeup lessons with a take home video of the entire session. I am currently researchinf differnt programmes for editing, and thought Id ask what you use. Thanks Mel xx
Love your tutorials for hooded eyes, now following you on all available networks 🙂 Looking forward to trying out you ‘dome shape’ must know tutorial with some new matte shadows I bought yesterday.
Hi Stephanie,
I love your tutorials so much. And it would be great if you can help advise how to avoid cakey, creasing for oily combination skin with acne and scars after 2 or 3 hours. Why am i asking that? Because i did what you taught but my skin looks perfect just only when i finish it in the morning. After 1 hour working with my computer, my skin has oily on T zone. When i use film or thin layer tissue to remove oil, my skin looks like dry skin with alot of dead cells. I do exfloliate my skin 1 to 2 times a week. But it is not better. I wish to send you my photo to understand more. Look forward to your nice feedback.
Thanks,
Hang from Viet Nam
I just had a friend show me your youtube video on contouring (I’ve subscribed to your channel) and I’ve found your blog and instagram from your posts on your youtube…. subscribed to those as well. I really like the way you do your tutorials and your technique is different a bit from other tutorials I’ve seen before… it’s a lot easier to follow. My question isn’t necessarily about brands, but rather what sorts of brushes would you recommend for a “starter kit” whether it’s a diy buy a brush here and there or just an all inclusive kit? What sorts of things should someone look for when purchasing brushes?? Thank you for your blog, videos, and just taking the time to share your tips and knowledge.
Hiii
I’ve recently found your videos on youtube and they are simply amazing. I especially love the one of acne coverage as I used to suffer from moderate acne. Despite the acne clearing up, i’m still very very self conscious of my skin. as I made it the focal point of my high school career. You inspire so many young self-aware women. Thank youu! X
Hi, I found one of your videos and can’t wait to buy the products and try them out in the hopes it will work for me. I am in Europe at the moment and left my usual make up back home in australia 😦 unfortunately they don’t sell that brand here.
My question is, I have lines around my eyes and a darker tone under my eyes as well. Is there a concealer I can put under my eyes that will hide the lines and not crease into them before i put on the foundation?
Also it is pretty cold here at the moment and I wondered if the Chanel Perfection Lumiere Velvet foundation would dry and flake my skin as I apply it?
Hi Stephanie,
I love your work i start to folow you since i saw you. I folow you in printerest too. Im from Argentina im modeling now. I told my manager about you and your work and he runs a small magazine, he ask if you want to be in the front page, we need your approval of course. Why you didnt upload all your works im seeing them on printrest no hq images. why? this blog allows you to upload hq pics. Any way if you are interest in bein on the front let me know. Thanks for you work.
Hi! Just recently discovered your utube videos and love them? Do you have any tutorials or “how tos” for eye bags? Not shadows or dark circles but bags? Thanks, leann
Hi Stephanie, I have just discovered you on you tube, approximately 24 hours ago…I am sure I have watch 4 hours-worth of your tutorials and I have a mental list of things in my head Id like to get based on your recommendations and fantastic links- straight to the item!! I just cant stop thinking about you and alllll the information you give. you are absolutely amazing and a beautiful person. You put so much effort into to everything- its so clear to see and that;s why i love you.
ps. I see you are engaged/ married to one of the best breeds in the world :). I am also irish. 100%. I bet hes an honest easy going genuine fella. Ireland is beautiful. I hope your see it.
Anyway- I know this long. I actually have more Id like to say. If you have an email I guess id prefer to send it like that.
In short, you make me feel so much better about myself- I have ‘bad’ skin. But honestly get so fed up being apologetic for it. Note. I wear makeup to cover it BUT becasue I love make up and its a creative outlet for me. You make me want to follow my passion and do make-up training…. ;/. I am currently fininshing a PhD- handing in on Monday.!!! its been so a long struggle- and my skin has also suffered. Anywau- onwards and upwards!! xxx
I love that Ive discovered you, just when I am getting back into my life and things i love again :).
Hi im Charley from England.
I have fair-skin with a pink undertone which is oily and i have acne. I love your tutorials they help me so much.
Can you tell me the names of the essential brushes needed in my make-up bag for day-to-day make-up and contouring e.g. face, eye and lip. And where i can get them at a really good price??
Also can you tell me what make-up to fill my bag up with for day-to-day and contouring that will suit my skin? (not too expensive)
Thank you soooo much. Hope to hear from you soon.

Would you be able to craft a video to femininize the male face for us non genetic girls? No drag, just everyday techniques to make our face look more feminine.
Love you!

Hi Stephanie, I have just discovered your tutorials and am amazed at how long i have been applying my makeup incorrectly and using the worst shades for my skin tone. Last night i made a few adjustments to application and colour choices and the outcome was incredible. I have been busy looking at all your videos since to pick up more tips. Thank You!!!
Anyways, my question is…. i am now looking at investing in a brush kit and was wondering which brand you would recommend. Good quality brushes suitable for beginners. I have been looking at a Hair and Makeup Addiction Kit (The Luxury Complete Set) and the Sigma Kits (Essential Kit). What are your thoughts?

I love your YouTube channel! I’m very new to makeup and I have a problem with my eyes, they are both hooded but one of them has life 3 folds and the other one is just hooded. I don’t know if you’ll understand my description, so basically one eye is more hooded than the other. Can you PLEASE do a video or a blog post or anything else to help me with this problem? Thx!

Hi Stephanie! I’ve just recently subscribed to your YouTube channel and love your videos and makeup looks. I was tired of watching tutorials of stunning looking makeup (when on cam) but totally u realistic and u wearable off cam. Your looks and videos are very natural and wearable….. So thank you for providing us with amazing looks we can actually wear in public 🙂 anyway I was also wondering which software you use to edit your videos? I will soon be launching my own makeup and hair styling company and will be offering makeup lessons with a take home video of the entire session. I am currently researchinf differnt programmes for editing, and thought Id ask what you use. Thanks Mel xx

Hi Stephanie,
I love your tutorials so much. And it would be great if you can help advise how to avoid cakey, creasing for oily combination skin with acne and scars after 2 or 3 hours. Why am i asking that? Because i did what you taught but my skin looks perfect just only when i finish it in the morning. After 1 hour working with my computer, my skin has oily on T zone. When i use film or thin layer tissue to remove oil, my skin looks like dry skin with alot of dead cells. I do exfloliate my skin 1 to 2 times a week. But it is not better. I wish to send you my photo to understand more. Look forward to your nice feedback.
Thanks,

I just had a friend show me your youtube video on contouring (I’ve subscribed to your channel) and I’ve found your blog and instagram from your posts on your youtube…. subscribed to those as well. I really like the way you do your tutorials and your technique is different a bit from other tutorials I’ve seen before… it’s a lot easier to follow. My question isn’t necessarily about brands, but rather what sorts of brushes would you recommend for a “starter kit” whether it’s a diy buy a brush here and there or just an all inclusive kit? What sorts of things should someone look for when purchasing brushes?? Thank you for your blog, videos, and just taking the time to share your tips and knowledge.

I’ve recently found your videos on youtube and they are simply amazing. I especially love the one of acne coverage as I used to suffer from moderate acne. Despite the acne clearing up, i’m still very very self conscious of my skin. as I made it the focal point of my high school career. You inspire so many young self-aware women. Thank youu! X

Hi, I found one of your videos and can’t wait to buy the products and try them out in the hopes it will work for me. I am in Europe at the moment and left my usual make up back home in australia 😦 unfortunately they don’t sell that brand here.
My question is, I have lines around my eyes and a darker tone under my eyes as well. Is there a concealer I can put under my eyes that will hide the lines and not crease into them before i put on the foundation?
Also it is pretty cold here at the moment and I wondered if the Chanel Perfection Lumiere Velvet foundation would dry and flake my skin as I apply it?
kind regards
