    You look like the classical man at the back of the library who read Oscar Wilde while smiling charmingly at those you catch staring at you. Long story short, you are my make-up role model.

    Thank you, sir! Thank you thank you thank you thank you!!! I'm a middle-aged, drag-ignorant, woman, who doesn't get out much. I've been invited to a DIY ("drag it yourself") engagement party. The drag part is optional, but I want to participate and show full support for the gender bending couple. I've spent the last few weeks trying to come up with a drag king persona. I was like "how does one figure out what style of facial hair suits one's face??" My 14 year old daughter was like "mom. filters. Duh." So I found a few of those online. I thought a full beard would be fun, but rather horrifyingly discovered I looked like my uncle Al. I figured out the clothing side and how to flatten my chest but was rather flummoxed over what to do with my face. This tutorial is PERFECT!!! I found the right way to contour my round face and used your techniques for creating facial hair that doesn't make me look like my uncle. Now I can't wait to go to the party as a gorgeous, middle-aged, gentleman - a silver fox. Thank you again!!!

I'm in my early 20s and I'm still clueless about makeup, specifically about contouring, until now. This is so informative and precise, and might I add that your voice is sooo soothing.

    Oh my god classical and dapper drag kings are real. in this modern age. I was just rambling on another (also a few years old) video about how it wasn't something I had seen and was part of why I hesitated. Honestly I was getting closer to just doing it regardless. Especially sense there isn't like... rules on what you can be. It's quite the opposite actually haha. But it's nice to see someone who has done it. Mainly what has taken me so long aside from hesitation, is that I keep accidentally putting it on the back burner, as I attempt to just exist in life and get my mental health together. And uh, not knowing how to even look into it, but that's more of a skill issue because I've barely tried doing so. Also, turns out paying more attention to what you want out of life and how you want to present, is good for one's mental health. Incredible. Update: Wanting a degree in everything is so real. I am also very good at not committing to even one of them though because of this. Also ayyy history. I am sensing a pattern that people who like history also just like a lot of things and/or want to do a lot of things. I guess makes sense history is uh, everything that has existed haha.
