**slowly puts down my hairspray*

Hi Allana! Video idea - it would be very cool to see half of your face with underpainting technique vs other half with traditional technique😊

🙋🏻‍♀️ I think we all had and used the Avon pearls at some point in our teenage years 😂😂 what a throwback!

15 year-old Elena loved blue & green eye shadow, maxi skirts, blazers, gauzy/flowy tops, scarves, and vintage jewellery! 💙💚 33 year-old Elena has toned it down a bit (no blue eye shadow between brows & lids anymore haha), but has the same general vibe. Thanks for sharing your make-up evolution, Allana, and reminding people to look back! 💄🖌️

Weirdly enough, I used to always put my concealer under my foundation because I'm from a large Italian family (35 first cousins) with four makeup artists and three hairdressers so I was always being schooled. The brand everyone loved was Prescriptives, but by the time I was old enough to buy it, it was discontinued.

I think basic black eyeliner and mascara was a staple to my 15 year old self…. The no make up make up of our generation 😂

Thankful someone else acknowledges the hairspray as setting spray trend. Whenever I tell people that they look at me like I’m crazy 😂🥲

Guilty for using that for my wedding day makeup to really lock it in place!

Your high-school-self looked amazing. And I have to laugh thinking about the hairspray as setting-spray because I’ve been there

I was 15 in the early 90s. My makeup consisted of concealer, sometimes blush, powder, brown or black eyeliner smudged with a finger or qtip alllll around the eyes and a crap ton of black mascara. I never did my brows because they had been plucked into oblivion. Then usually a brown or dark lipstick. Classic 90s grunge. I actually still love this look, just more finessed. ❤

My teenage makeup consisted solely of the Mac Studio fix powder foundation and layerss of the Maybelline falsies mascara 🤣

omg, memory unlocked. except for me it was the max factor powder foundation! But Maybelline mascara SLAPPED

High School me: heavy black liner, and "Dial A Lash" mascara in deep black, the thicker the better, and a bronzer than turned me orange :) 55 year old me: knows what shades to use, cool undertones work best, what colours bring out my eyes, and how less is more are words to live by. Thank you for everything you've taught me in the last number of years - my face thanks you 💕💕

My 15 year old self loved to wear the wrong foundation colour, looking super orange, plus doing eye-liner on the lower lash line and not on the top 😂 #NeverAgain

I barely even recognized you, because I’ve seen you with light hair for so long. Definitely beautiful then and now!

This is great😂😂 I love this idea.

Ahhh I'm so happy it' every day may! I'm up working on finals and this is a MUCH needed distraction! Thank youu 🤩

Allana you were beautiful at 15 and more beautiful now. CT iconic nude lip pencil is my favorite and looks great on you!

I discovered the world of makeup much later in life. I would walk by Sephora and think, “why do women go into Sephora so much” 🤣 I’m that woman now 🤣😂

😂😂😂😂 i loved the idea behind this campaign! So cool to know more about lil Lan. #whydidMachire me SENT ME!! 🤣🤣🤣

My 15 year old self did not wear any makeup at all, except for a couple of times when I put eyeliner on my lower water line and I thought that I looked so grown up and mature, LOL!!!!😂 i feel nostalgic when I remember that at least in my country, that’s how it used to be, nobody used makeup until at least 17-18 and even then it was not usual nor we did not use much at all, only on the weekends to go out, maybe mascara and some gloss….then I went to the US (Midwest) as an exchange student when I was 17 and was SHOCKED to see 12 and 13 year olds wearing every day full face of make up to school. That’s actually when I started wearing a bit of makeup on a more regular basis. You looked gorgeous then as you look now! ❤

Such a beautiful video i love your make up!!!

Happy Birthday Cult beauty. ❤

Loved this video!

I used to be so obsessed with makeup when I was a teen, but it was back in the day when we didn't have many brands in New Zealand and certainly didn't have online shopping! I used to dream of seeing Stila and MAC and so many brands "in real life" and not just in the magazines. My Mum bought be a Stila lip gloss back when she went overseas and my mind was blown. Then I remember buying a MAC glowy powder SECOND-HAND on a swap site (before the stores actually sold stock online). Fast-forward to 34-year-old me....definitely no shortage of makeup access and my bank account knows it.

Ohh I also do recall my photobooth days and uploading ALL of the pictures! Haha I love the reminiscing.

In highschool was super shy so absolutely did not wear makeup at school, because at that time I was concerned with what others would think of me if I changed how I looked. When I did wear makeup around friends, it was blush and eyeliner. If I did wear lipstick I did use lip liner because that's what my sister had taught me. My sister also taught me how to fix my brows and I had a clear brow gel (that didn't really do anything). I only learned how to apply eyeshadow years after. The one thing that has not really changed is my personal hate for lipgloss. My hair stick's to it and gets everywhere.

Good morning from Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹 (it’s 1:30) 🤣

Hairspray.. the og setting spray haha

I wore allot of eyeshadow in highschool. Loved playing with colours. Covergirl 4 or 5 shade pans were my jam

I have been trying underpainting with you but realised I like it slightly differently. I put foundation/concealer on first but avoid the areas I would bronze. Then add cream bronzer, being it together and set with very light layer of powder. So much softer a look with less layer. Blush bronzer et c don't then lift foundation which is bonus.😀

I put my old Bondi Bae next to my new one and they're not the same in my opinion. The recent one is so much warmer.

I loved a lot of things about the 80s but NOT the makeup lol. So basically never wore any. I got into makeup in the 90s and even then there's no comparison with all the products and innovation these days. I think 15 yr old Allana did a pretty good job. You look just as young as you did then! Loved this video idea Lan, thanks for sharing!

Loved it!!❤

The cutest video!!!

Good afternoon from Australia! Just having my evening snack!! You have the most perfect teeth growing up ❤ I would adore more wedding content, maybe inspo and clothing options etc.

My 15 old self did not use a lot of makeup maybe some mascara,but my 11 old self loved black or blue eyeliner and mascara. I used a lot of it and lipgloss that I reapplied every 5 minutes 😂! 💕

Glowyyy ✨

I loved this. I used those little bronzing beads as well. Avon. 🥰🥰

I am shocked at 15 year old Allana! You look younger now ❤

Aww 🥰 love the 15year old Allana as much as I love the 29year old Allana ❤❤❤

some general steps you can follow to help you find makeup that suits your needs: Determine your skin type and needs: Identify your skin type: Determine if you have oily, dry, combination, or sensitive skin. This will help you choose products that are formulated to address specific skin concerns. Consider your skin concerns: Do you have acne-prone skin, uneven skin tone, or specific issues like redness or dark circles? Identifying your concerns will guide you in selecting makeup products that offer the desired coverage and benefits.

Aww precious baby Lan! This was such a cute video idea! I used to do a liquid winged liner every single day and it would be truly effortless! Now I can't get them even for the life of me...

I thought that I was the only one who used hair spray this way when I was younger. I used it only for brows though but I feel less weird now!!😅❤

sending love from argentina lan and dejan, really enjoying every day may ❤

Oh Allana, your 15 year old self did better makeup than I did hahahaha! I loved black eyeliner everywherrreeee, and literally just foundation (that was too pale) and job done. It was NOT a lewk :P Plus I had braces from 15-18, the joyssss

Loved this walk down memory lane 💛 I used to wear dark eyeliner only along my lower lash line. No base, brow, or lip products 🙈😂

I remember watching you when i was in high school like 8+ years ago and you never did your bottom lashes and I did not understand that you could just skip that😂 I also think you inspired my love for excessive layered cheek products

A classic everyday makeup - your younger self would have thanked you for such a gorgeous look! Lol…

My high school self wore a covergirl stick concealer, maybelline mascara (yes the pink and green one), and a maybelline shimmery dream mousse blush (honestly it was pretty and I miss it lol)

You cutie pie! It’s so funny how different you look with dark hair - it even makes your features and face shape appear different.

Good morning from Sweden! 😍

15 year old me was into concealer, mascara and a very popular baked blush from The Body Shop. Not all that much has changed to be honest 😂

I was fifteen in the mid 90s. No foundation because nothing pale enough for my skintone existed at the time, and certainly not at the drugstore. Not sure what I did for concealer (Rimmel's stick concealer that looked like a lipstick, maybe?). I think my main things were blush, eyeliner (though I may've added that a year later), mascara, and something on the lips.

What a cute vid!

oh my i forgot that we used hair spray as setting spray back in the day. the hacks that we thought over back then were wild

Bless you and your cult beauty discount code 🙏🏻

The KEY to underpainting (I learned the hard way lol) is to blend the foundation all over the forehead and not just in the centre 😂

OMG my makeup game has changed drastically over the years. When I was in high school I had no idea what I was doing when it came to makeup and I didn't have anybody to ask and looking back now I am embarrassed for my younger self. I only used a powder foundation from Covergirl because I couldn't stand the feeling of liquid foundation. I didn't use bronzer blush or highlight. And when it came to my eyes I would use one color and a black eyeliner and mascara. The bad part about this is that I would put on the eyeshadow and then do a like of eyeliner and then put more eyeshadow on top of that over the eyeliner and on my lips I would mostly just use a clear gloss. So yeah like I said embarrassing lol.

So….. I didn’t know about hairspray to set makeup. I did not know this until today. 😂

What a fun vid! It's fun thinking about my own makeup as a teenager. As a very pale gal, I tended to avoid bronzer since I could never find a shade that wasn't orange...But, I would rock a soft pink cheek, and definitely, like you, rocked the thick, black mascara (albeit I wore L'Oréal's Voluminous) on the lashes. I wore concealer to hide some rosacea redness, and MAC Studiofix powder foundation to set the whole face. I would then always follow it up with a light pink or clear gloss (hello, Juicy Tubes!) Strangely, I never was into highlighter, although I was so pale that I felt I didn't need it. Also, I was colouring my hair very dark back then (it's medium brown / not coloured now), so the look was already more intense. Thanks for the throwback! Would you be willing to do a back-in-the-day fragrance video? I know it's more difficult to describe scents, but it would be so fun to discuss as a topic...What did you wear when you were younger? Some of my 'fragrance wardrobe' consisted of the following (over the span of a few years and in no particular order): Amarige by Givenchy Eternity by Calvin Klein Ralph by Ralph Lauren Heaven by The Gap 360 by Perry Ellis Light Blue by Dolce & Gabbana Dior Addict by Christian Dior So de la Renta by Oscar de la Renta La Petite Robe Noire by Guerlain... And God help you if you wore Satsuma by The Body Shop. Most of my friends did, and it always made me nauseated!

Hi Allana!! You were beautiful at 15 and your gorgeous now!! I started wearing makeup at 14. It was just mascara and dark black, liquid liner. At 15, I started upping my game, I added some eyeshadow, Lip gloss and blush. 😊 This was a great video!! Have a wonderful day!! ❤ Xx

This reminded me that I used to buy a single pot eyeshadow from Victoria’s Secret and wore it all over my lid every day, lined with black liner and glopped black mascara around my eye and called it a day. And oof, the dream matte mousse 😅

We need more Smokey and sultry and drammatic look here on the channel please 🙏🏼 it

I was 15 in 1990! I used loads of green colour corrector for my redness and always had a sickly hue about me! I was still into electric blue mascara from the 80’s and minuscule brows! 😂😂😂

In my day it was Cover Girl and Maybelline makeup and we used brow pencil for eyeliner in BLACK!! Uugghh 😅

At 16 I was aloud to experiment with makeup. I’m 56 now so I was a child of the early 80’s. I remember coming down the stairs and my dad asking me if I was going out like that???😂😮🤪🤣 I had teal and pink shadow on with all lot of teal liner. My lipstick choice was a vampy purple lipstick from Chanel! I looked like a 🤡 🤣

Thanks for the flash backs to my black eyeliner face, also around the age of 12, during which I looked like a child but also super strung out somehow?

wow you look completely different at 15. I definitely see some of the same features but if I didn’t know, I would never have thought that was you. I think it may be the dark hair that threw me.

LOOOOL, well, let me tell you, at 15 the only makeup I wore was the black liner (tightlining) and mascara - that's it!😆 I didn't get into makeup, really, till my mid 20's when I discovered youtube and early days "beauty gurus"😃🥰

you look pretty, but I was really hoping you'd recreate that 15-year-old look 1:1!

❤❤❤❤

Well judging by those pictures you definitely did not have any awkward teenage years!… you were just as pretty as you are now with just a few less make up tricks 😜

I blanked my face out with foundation and used no blush or bronzer at 15! Bottom eyeliner only and either black eyeshadow or sparkly white. 💀 I honestly looked revolting.

I have to say the eyebrows you had 4 years ago suited you waaay beter! This arched and dark eyebrows make you look a bit witchy

I bought my 1st concealer for my youngest son's christening at the age of 37. He still is a bad sleeper.

Wait. What was wrong with your brows in that pic ? 😂😂😂. I thought they looked so good

Foundation, lipstick and mascara was my 15 year old makeup, no other step was aloud 😂

You look so cute at 15! The makeup was definitely better than my dark liner at 15 😂

Would have loved for you to replicate your old style as opposed to doing the same makeup as you do now. Would have been fun

Oh man, at 15 I had the emo raccoon eyes and that was it! Now I don't wear any eyeliner
