I just found you Ms. Nikol and I am so so thrilled. You have been the first woman to realize the need and desire for women of all ages, who want to look their best yet have no idea how to go about it. I’m a breast cancer survivor. I had MANY careers so now it was time for me to do exactly what you are doing, only with women who are currently in the hospital undergoing treatment. I had everything planned out, when my oncologist said “ I don’t think you have been out of this insidious illness long enough to help others as you are healing yourself.” My doctor must have had a premonition, because my ADORED, BELOVED HUSBAND suddenly passed away from Covid, and I am trying so hard to heal myself as well as my 3 young adult children. This horrific nightmare happened without any warning. My husband and I had dinner, he felt like he was getting sick and 4 hours later I heard someone call me a widow. I really didn’t want to go into so much information, however YOU have brought me so much happiness and joy I wanted you to know how grateful I am. You have given me hope, and a purpose to get up and make up and greet the day. Thank you from my heart. Please never stop sending your positivity to women,because look what it has done for me. From my heart, Thank you sweet Nikol.

Here's something to try for lower lashes. Take a tissue or a square of bathroom tissue. Place it under your lower lashes and hold it there. Apply mascara just like you usually do to top lashes. Just brush away. The wand will hit that tissue paper and product will not get on your skin. If you want to separate your lashes, use an old toothbrush. The spread-out bristles will act as a comb to remove excess mascara, and separate your lashes. So easy and fast. Also works on eyebrows to soften harsh pencil lines.

Great idea, BUT how do you keep the mascara from smearing on the skin under the lower lash line? I use waterproof mascara but the oils from the makeup and eye cream , which I need, make the mascara bleed onto my skin.

@@denisepfahl3147 I wish I could tell you. I use waterproof mascara too. Maybe carry wood toothpicks with a tiny bi of cotton wrapped around the length. The narrow width of the toothpick would allow you to get the cotton-wrapped side of it right up next to your lash line. NOT the pointed end. Just the side. The cotton would wipe away the smears and absorb the oils. Or maybe try those oil-blotting tissues before the mascara starts running?

When I did make up in a salon years ago, I had my own little mascara trick. When applying the mascara after curling your lashes, make sure the tip of the mascara wand isn't all glooped up. Take the tip and vertically brush along the tips of your upper lashes to get them coated. It's an easy way to pick out the longest lashes, pay special attention to the outside lashes. After that go back and start at the base of your lashes on apply your mascara as usual. The reason for doing this is that you can never get the tips as long when you skip this step and just apply from the base to the ends. If you like some more pop, you can put a layer on the tops of your lashes before doing your mascara as usual.

My hands to shake, due to TBI (traumatic brain injury.) and tried Selena Gomez’s mascara hack and ultimately, I tweaked the application method, so that it would work for me and I was quite happy, that even I was able to do this! Because mascara and I have a love-hate relationship, and I am obsessed with makeup, and this technique is like a *chef’s kiss* for me. First, I made sure my hands were cleaned. Instead of closing the tweezers, I coated both sides of each leg and I rested the heal of my palm against my jaw, for leverage and with light pressure, I ended up with 100% coverage on my bottom lashes, in one pass… it was the easiest and fastest application, that I have ever accomplished. Seriously. Because of my tremor, I use very little mascara along my upper lashes. Or, I ask my sister to help me. Thank you, so much, Nikol!

It's a waste of my time and frankly, NO ONE GIVES A F$&K! Second of all, to negatively comment on Nikol's skin was another mean-girl move that bothered me to all hell. THIS ISN'T A SKINCARE TUTORIAL, so who cares what her skin looks like? THAT'S NOT WHAT WE ARE HERE FOR!!! Besides, what good is that gonna do, to be rude as shit for no good reason? i bet all of you made these comments because, no matter how much or how well you apply your make-up, you end up looking like crap regardless.

The intent. No one is perfect. Including Nikol. This channel is about celebrating the good. While keeping negativity as little as possible considering that imperfect people cannot perfectly do anything 100% of the time. So what causes someone who doesn't do make up to watch this type of video? Is it to purposely try to hurt others? I did see MVP.

Really prefer the French skin care products! The French women are much more into skin care, and not so much into makeup. I’ve been using French skin care for long time, my skin is so much better, and haven’t always done as much makeup as I did when I was younger. However, I do love your eye makeups and cheek colors a lot💓

Nikol is beautiful without make-up but with it she’s gorgeous! Her tutorials have something for ev & at 75 I am trying what appeals to me & what I think I will keep up. I just discovered her a few weeks ago & so far have ord frownies, (husb even ord some for his forehead) & ord eye shadow primer.

Although my hair is still mostly dark, my lashes are fine and short and largely disappear. I most definitely use mascara on the lower lashes-- when I use much makeup at all, which is generally only for dance events and performances. It doesn't "draw down the face" when applied judiciously, and it doesn't look phony when it's just enough to make the lashes visible. Perhaps you are thinking of the way women look when they really cake the mascara on?

Love this whole look, makeup, the way you styled your hair, outfit!

Soooo, I tried the lower lash hack. I wasn't too interested in trying it bc I thought it sounded weird, and harder than just using a light hand with the mascara I use on my lower lashes (which has a teeny tiny brush). Silly me. Easy peasy and WOW! My lashes are light blond and if I'm putting mascara on the bottom I feel like I need to do some kind of lining as well, I've just never been able to do the light piecy thing because the blond lashes left uncovered just look odd. This works like a dream! Might sound weird but you can intentionally clump some together and then individually coat just a few! This is a long explanation but for all the redheads and light eyelashed gals, ifykyk, try this! You'll be amazed!

We don't have to do the same thing to get the look we want, it doesn't have to be time consuming but the older we get, yes, it is going to take a little extra time for hair and makeup but I am totally worth it. I ran out of foundation and the guy who cuts my hair for the past 20 years plus covid, I was out of a haircut, etc. Of course, it crossed/crosses my mind. Now, my guy is back, I have my basic foundation and uh, no. I am very glad that whenever I go out the time was spent to look the best I feel. Being single at age 65, I remember neighbors telling me to "wear your foundation in the summer" when I was like 12 - and I haven't forgotten. My mom always kept a lipstick by the front door mirror and would tell my sisters to put on lipstick before they went out. My mom ALways put on lipstick and a flick of mascara when she went out. The white hair can stay, the slop water grey gets box color. I am completely worth it! I feel better, I look better, I enjoy the compliments and I bet you will, too. Please, don't get me wrong!

@@seaspray9144 , Yes, the woman in the video is beautiful - with all that makeup on ! I bet no one would look sideways at her, without the gloop. I think some women just enjoy the process of painting themselves up. Why else would you bother - really ? And also, some women must have more money than sense. I have some mineral foundation powder which I dab on to cover up my newly founded red cheeks, and with a lick of mascara I’m finished in less than a minute. But I’m with you. 👍🌈

That was so fun. I love all your products. They make you sparkle so beautifully 😁 thanks for the tips

Beautiful! Love the make up and your hair looks gorgeous 💕💕

I love that you share your knowledge thank you so much Nicole it helps me want to still look good as I age . 😊

Love the technique for bottom lashes. My friend will love this as she wears eye enhancing makeup. Love the gene jacket! I like the concealer under eyes. The finished look is lovely!

There is just no way I could do this! I have blinking eye syndrome and I'm thinking I would pluck them all out! Lol. I do use the It waterproof tightline. I bend the end just a bit to make an angle and it works great. Lov your vids.

We like this mascara tip! Thank you for another beautiful tutorial!

Good for Selena!! Doesn't fill in re sparse bottom lashes, but it definitely has its uses!

My first time here. I dont wear make-up often, because I never seem to go anyplace. But this was so amazing to watch, I think I want to try all of this and surprise my husband and take him out to eat, or even just out for icecream! Love the lower lash hack! Great video! Blessings,Fran

Greetings Nikol! First time watcher here. I LOVED this video. Love the Anthelios face sunscreen, especially the invisible finish one (worth every penny!). I also love you for reinforcing how important brushes are for doing your makeup. I freely admit that for years I didn't get brushes - just thought they were a cash grab, after all, your products usually give you neat little brushes. Problem is, they just DON'T work. Period. So I've finally thrown mine out and invested in great brushes. Keep up the great work - you're a beautiful woman with great presence in your videos. Cheers from Canada!

Wow! FAST shipping!!! LOVE the products!!! Thank you!

You are always so informative, Nikol! You help with the application of product and you share every one you’ve used. I love this about you. As an aesthetician and makeup artist, your tutorials help me to help my clients and teach them the techniques! Then I turn them in to your KZread videos! Thank you for sharing!🥰

The mascara hack starts at 7:10 ;)

Love the mascara hack, but had to lol at the natural hair dry comment! I’m with you on that one girl.

Thanks Nikol..you are awesome!💯👍

LOVE the tweezer technique!!

As a women of deep color I usually stick with watching artist that share my hue . I watched your video and I loved it ! Awesome tutorial . New subscriber 🥰

If you love rich eyeshadows, you should try Viseart, Definitely a favorite of mine. I have adopted your washing the eyeshadow down and it works great! I have been using Laura Gellar products for 20 years. She is one of the unsung heros for women. Thanks for the great video!

I just love your tutorials! I am so grateful I found you

You look naturally stunning! Beautiful!

I am 60+ years. First, I place my mascara up under my boobs while I put on my makeup. The warmth helps it not be so clumpy. As far as my lower lashes, I use Maybelline Lash Discovery...tiny wand...great for lower lashes. I always scrape the sides of the wand across the top of the mascara tube so only a minimal amount stays on the wand. Love your videos! Just ordered your eyelid primer!

@@smalltowngirlbigcityheart3724 LOL!! LMAO!!! IT REALLY WORKS! To add more craziness...I have one type mascara under one and another type (for my lower lashes) under the other boob. At my age, those babies are locked down until I am ready to use them. But seriously, it heats up the mascara so the consistency of the formula is not so thick. Give it a try....just don't forget it is there!😉

Hi Nikol, I luv your tutorials and will definitely try the lower lash mascara hack. I am 61 yrs old with hooded eyes and stopped using mascara as I found that it made my eyes look smaller. I may just try the lower lashes to see if that helps me. Ty!

First time I’ve ever watched u, I’m in love with your tutorial! I don’t really watch make up videos but I’m definitely going to start watching yours!

Love it! Looks great. I always appreciate some great tips. Thx, Patty

Love this look! Can't wait to try the wet n wild dewy foundation!

Luv your vintage jacket. Just a shout out that I am enjoying your trio concealer, lip gloss and mascara. Thanks for all your kind words and I wish more women would be kind to one another. Let each person be themselves. How dull and boring would the world be if we all looked similar and had the same hair color etc. thanks for sharing.

Love this video. You're so real and fun!! Thank you!

Loved this makeup look. So good.

Dear miss Nikol, your videos are a pleasure to watch and learn from. I never understood makeup before and just avoided it. But after I found you and your videos on silver hair, and then your makeup tutorials, you totally inspired me to get confident and creative and experiment with it! It's so fun! And you make it look so easy. You are inspired 😃 and you help me remember that I too am an empowered woman. Thank you for everything you give and share. As much as I do love learning about how to APPLY the pretty eye makeup, I would also really, really love to learn how to REMOVE it safely and gently. I find that the eyeliners and mascara are so hard to clean out from my lash line! And I don't want to scrub them roughly. There must be a better way. Can you show us how you take it all off?

You should do a double cleanser Use a cleansing balm I love Elemis rose cleansing balm this will melt off all your makeup even waterproof. Then use your favorite cleanser.

1st time watcher & now a subscriber! This video was in-between a analytics video part1 I had just watched & the part2 I was headed to. Your title caught my eye so I decided to take a break from analytics & watch. By the end of the video, I had every line on 2 sheets in a spiral notebook filled with detailed notes on every product, tip, & instruction you mentioned! Divorced, my 2 kids are grown, and I have worked from home since 2017, well before Covid - I'm so out of practice with my primping skills! I have seen other creator's make-up videos on occasion in the past, but yours is better 😊

Have viewed a couple of your tutorials Enjoyed this video and Subscribed ☺️

I'm 63, very fair, blonde and graying hair. I have always had light eye lashes and brows. So, I still apply mascara on my lower lashes

That’s the perfect situation for browns or less stark black to avoid how aging that black can be for fair hair + the aged.

You can get reverse tweezers that you need to squeeze to open. Usually found to be used in the craft world.

Nikol, I am so tickled for this mascara tip! I used to coat my lower lashes when I was younger, but not having worn makeup for many years, I now cannot do lower lashes without looking like the raccoons that visit us every day/night!! 🙃 Am excited to try and I just got a lashes set from Amazon, so I am ready to go! Thank you again for your precious time and beautiful tutorials! 😍

I was wearing the WnW foundation when it smelled like paint thinner, it was an 😖 smell but a great foundation. I'm so glad they reformulated and made it a light pleasant smell.

You are wonderful! Thanks for all your terrific videos and tips. 🌻
