“… just go into Sephora and ask them to match you … you’ll live; it’s not that emasculating. Calm down. Deal with it.” 😂 Priceless!

THANK YOU FOR THIS!! When I transitioned a few years ago I started feeling ashamed about wearing makeup because people would misgender me more often.. I learned that the only way for them to see me as a man was if I let myself be ugly. It annoyed the hell out of me and it felt so sad giving up makeup as a hobby. The way you phrase a lot of stuff in this is so helpful like pointing out to go for "matte" stuff and how to look more masculine. Thank you so much!

Hey Man im a dude and I tried this. Been looking years for a way to hide pores and even skin tone. So far this has helped me out a ton. My skin looks clear and even without looking like I have anything on. Thank You!

Every time you say "don't do that". You can pretty much guarantee that was staple of my makeup routine. I'm learning..and I'm having some fun. Thank you 💗

Love you tutorials. Can you do one for seniors? I just turned 70, need to change up my routine.

You are such a great looking person. With or without makeup you are so gorgeous. Thanks for the tutorial, love it.

This is fantastic! I haven't worn makeup in decades. I'm a bit self-conscious about starting again. I LOVE this idea!

I love your honest and open approach to not just makeup but skincare and issues one might have.

This is exactly what I was looking for. I’ve been looking for a masculine makeup routine that just makes you look good. Well done! - Joe

Thanks for pointing out that those of us who don't like to wear makeup on a regular basis (but don't like looking pale, yellow, coarse-skinned, dull, or just old can still look fresh and natural while making the most of what nature lets us keep over time. If the choice is between looking old or painted on a regular basis I'll choose the old but it would be a hard choice. I don't do Glam on any regular basis and even going out I go lighter than most people do but even a little bit of blush can make the difference between looking dead or alive and that's been that way for me since my late twenties. My skin always needed that help even when my lips were so naturally red people always asked me what shade I was wearing when I had nothing on. Ahhh, those were the days...

Wish I could’ve watched this 25 years ago. So true. Whatever life stage you’re at, TAKE CARE OF YOUR SKIN, DAILY. At 49 (like me), you can’t go back. Your routine will have to get way more intense, with lesser results.

"...that's not gunna happen." I loved that moment lol

Best no makeup makeup look tutorial I watched

Honestly your videos are the only ones that have ever helped me at all. Especially this one - I love how you explain how to do this makeup depending on whether you have a beard or not. I’m so thrilled that men can wear makeup now, it seems like progress. And when you are in full makeup it’s always gorgeous and perfect! Thanks so much for the help and the laughs! 😘

Your Make Up tutorials are gorgeous, especially you explain this for guys and girls! Thank you so much for all your work here 🥰

Thank you for your video! Aways struggled with knowing how to put on makeup. And as an adult woman now, have had a hard time keeping up. Watch a lot of makeup tutorials but find they are too heavy handed. Your video was the only one that truly made sense from a realistic perspective. Resonated with me because you were able to show small changes I can do without it being overwhelming. Actually use nars tinted moisturizer already so it was neat to see what I could do next. Don't have powder or setting spray but going to buy some now that you explained their importance, what they exactly do, and how to put it on. Just a great, easy to understand tutorial! Also really enjoyed this being for men and women. Never had anyone explain the differences in a male face and a female face in this way. Thanks again.

I think you’re wonderful and thank you for sharing and making your videos

This is such an underrated video, I need to give it a little bump. I stopped wearing make up a while ago and now everything looks a bit too much on me. I usually wear tinted sunscreen if anything. I watched this video yesterday, I tried it today with what I have at home and I love the look. Need to get myself a translucent powder. Thank you very much for this tutorial. I discovered your chanel thanks to Work at Sephora and I have to say, that your tutorials and reviews are also flawless and entertaining and you seem like a really nice person, which makes the whole chanel work. And even though you grew visibly more comfortable in front of the camera, you started off great to begin with. So thank you once again and keep up the good work, if you please.

All of these tips are ✨chefs kiss✨I love that you preach a skincare first approach. 💖 I use the Sephora line exfoliating pads from a Christmas bundle sale and the skin definitely looks nicer. I’ll have to try the Pixi ones next 💖

I had my first facial at the age of 66. I thought I had a smooth face before that facial. I'm going to pick up these products you've mentioned. Thanks so much for sharing this great info.

Your skin looks amazing! I love that you don't hock only super expensive make up. I'm a gal in my 50's but learn a lot from you. Thanks!

Getting everything from this video asap!

You have come so far. And even infront of the camera your the best I loved the video would love to see more from the past love you cutie patootie always

I love that you mix up and low budget products that are easy to find. Thanks!!!

Thanks for your tutorial. This is definitely usable for me: the man next door 🌹

The NARS tinted moisturizer has been my holy grail for literal years! ☺️

Don't forget the sunscreen, it is the most important step!

I know so many guys in the 80s that would have killed to know this info. College friend had same thing happen to his beard from stress but unfortunately it was a few spots & when it grew back some was sparse & some were white. His confidence would've been so much stronger had he known about this.

I cannot wait until you’re marketing your own line of skincare and makeup.

Thank you so much for this, i don't like using heavy makeup so to have a nice tinted moisturizer is a really great product to use cannot wait to see the next video. 😊

If only I had someone to teach me like you do back when I was young! Now I'm too old, but I still enjoy your tutorial sooo much!

The brickwall example was the best way I have ever heard anyone explain the difference between physical and chem exfoliates. 👏👏👏

You Rock Johnny! 🙏🏼 thanks

Thank you so much!!! I came for the humor but your honesty, concise and informative tutorials made me subscribe. I'm an older lady that never did any skin care other than soap scrub in the shower (embarrassing to say!!) I stay out of the sun due to horrible hives when I get sunburned. After I went to Ulta for a makeup appt I was humiliated, my lack of care was almost laughed at, a crap ton of expensive stuff was just thrown in a basket with very little explanation. Never again going there! Your Mac explanation is so accurate! I was curious about the ability to use makeup brushes for gel nails as I am a gel tech... they looked at me like I was an alien!! Love your videos!!

loved this!🖤

Love u Johnny! Def getting all these products....

Wow! The pixi peel pads are so good! I bought them from target when I saw your video last week and I have already seen a difference.

A clean slate always works best. Thank you for teaching this.

👏👏👏👏👏flawless!❤

Just love your videos thanks for helping an Old hippy look beautiful. Liza from Idaho

I very appreciate your video instructions. Thank you.

Dude, thank you! I rly was struggling with my invis for a long time and did not do anything more than peeling anti-aging and moisturizing for some years now. My skin is good.. but it is 30s man skin. I think I can work with your tips now to make it look even better. Greetings from Germany. 💜

I loveeee this!!! Not only do you do makeup for men in makeup but that you posted something for men in general!!!!

Watching this for the first time and it's great.

Great content, as always!

Thank you so much for this. My family doesn’t wear much makeup so wearing any heavy makeup always got too much attention. But this is amazing. Thank you so much

What a great video, men could do this. Well done for thinking outside of the box.👌👏👏👏👏💜

This is so underrated!

OMG ! Love this. I learned not to swipe my powder. 💙

Fabulous tips! Level up your skincare! I promise you it's a game changer! Honestly, after i got serious about my skin care i moved to a tinted moisturizer and left heavy foundations in the dust 🙂. You won't regret it.

thank you for this teaching, you are amazing.

Love the crickets !!! love your content:*

Omg the whole thing about needing your skin to be in better condition if you want to wear minimal make-up makes sooo much sense... I'm 33 and I've never heard that or thought of it.

You know it seems like makeup is either full coverage Glam for either sex and this guide which is wonderful being sheer neutral. But I wonder if you would consider doing a guide for people who are transitioning for example or for whatever reason I want to amp up their masculine physical characteristics without it being heavy-handed or obvious or coarse. Like filling out the brows increasing that brow bone depth and so forth. I guess basically the opposite of some of the things you're showing now but still looking good so having the neutral things in this video plus those. I think that would be hugely helpful to someone who is in the midst of transitioning f2m or is just dealing with anything like that. The beard darkening tips are great especially for someone who's first beard is coming in unevenly or is still thin and fine hair enough to look adolescent. Or maybe somebody who likes to do drag shows and they have heavily shaped thinner brows as their basis for their glamorous face, but they live in a small southern town and they need their brows to be a little thicker and more ordinary unshaped and so on in their regular daily life.

Awesome tutorial

Johnny love what I’ve seen of you. Best shave before you apply your makeup

Just want to say thank you! That was amazing - I don't like to wear a lot of makeup and this was very, very helpful. ^^ Thank you

Great video!

THIS IS THE PERFECT VIDEO PERFECT 👌 I REALLY, REALLY NEEDED THIS 1

Great tutorial....thanx!😊

Hi!! I dont do make up or skin care really but you got me! The price and the simplicity tank you!!

You are so good man! So engaging... Your 8yr experience oozes out in your videos... Keep going... Love ya 🌈💜💙💚💛🧡❤️🌈

This video has been invaluable to what I needed, thank you so much! I do have a couple of questions: 1. Is a brush better than a sponge when applying foundation? 2. Can your fingertips be acceptable substitutes for brushes/sponges or is that contributing to oiliness in the skin? 3. How long does it take to apply everything?

Wonderful information! Thank you 👋🇦🇺🙂

I’m going to start working at a nursery this summer and it’s going to be hot so I’ve been looking for a minimal make up plan that if I sweat most of it off it won’t be crazy noticeable but also working in hot weather sucks as is working in hot weather feeling like you have an inch of clay on your face makes it 10X more uncomfortable so thank you

Thank you!!

Thank you; love that I better understand the shade and light concepts for a masculine eye. Might have been your lighting, could be my screen, but the bronzer seems a teensy bit more yellow than necessary. I'm curious to see how Jones Road Dusty Rose looks on you because I can't tell if your undertone is light olive obscured by rosacea or pink. GUURRRRRuL! ❤ U

Thx so much!!

Hehehe Gives me an excuse to get more makeup for my hubby since sharing is unhygienic🤭😆

Only usually wear mascara but gave this a go today. It went ok but I found it made the fine lines around my mouth show up more. Do you think I did something wrong. Would it be the translucent powder that would emphasise the lines? X

Enjoy! Thanx!

You're such an amazing makeup artist! Any recommendations for mature skin foundation? Prefer powder but would try other items if they stay put and don't end up all over my collar. That I can't stand! Most foundation settles into fine lines and wrinkles and makes me look older than I am. It's disheartening 😪. Any advice or help would be so appreciated. 💞

Oh my u look gorgeously different ✨✨✨

Thanks!

Thanks

What would u suggest to use on skin before putting on makeup?

Thank you.

Ugh 😩 your nails are so beautiful I can’t focus on what you’re saying!

Nice. reddish beard is not a specifically Italian thing btw. it's actually quite common to have a beard that's more reddish than the rest of your hair. I've always wondered why..

Have you tried ELFs Gentle Peeling Exfoliant? I have pretty severe eczema & it does better at exfoliating than the prescription medications I was once given. I use it once weekly so that I don't accidentally irritate my skin too much. The PIXI pads didn't seem to be strong enough to remove the "grout" & I was always left with flaky skin. I'm sure though PIXI is better for more normal skin for exfoliating but the Gentle Peeling Exfoliant is amazing if person has severe dry flaky skin even with basic skin care routine.

Please, tell us more about finishing sprays. I know some of us just want it to really not transfer and stay put in summer days

I'm a woman with hirsutism, how can I better hide the under chin discoloration?

"You're skin will feel like a baby's ass" made me laugh. Great video

Hi, to start, love what you're doing, love your channel. I'm a 50+ male who does skin care, but has zero makeup experience. Therefore I was wondering if you had time to create a future tutorial on invisible makeup for the older man, preferably what to do if you don't have a beard.

Love this ❤but i got carried away with invisible… And bright red nails ❤️ love you 😘

great, i'm just starting to look at getting some, how do you feel about warpaint for men

I’ve always had this feeling that to put nude/natural makeup, you need to put way more efforts, than to full-on evening coverage 😂

Your hands are amazingly beautiful.

I always break out with physical exfoliant. I recently switched to just chemical and no more problems

Your hands are like so white and perfect. I want those

I used the Pixi Glow Peel pads last night, and I got a chemical burn on the apple of my cheeks. Maybe I rubbed it on too long or too aggressively? The rest of my skin looks amazing though

That's gorgeous Darling

I can't use makeup brushes because my skin is very dry and flaky and makeup brushes on anywhere other than the eyes always exacerbate that. Would a beauty blender be okay to use, instead of the makeup brush, for the tinted moisturizer?

In fact if you were to do a tutorial on drag King face creation, non-binary daily good looks, gender fluid daily good looks, it would be great. For the last two it would be what you're doing here with those touch-ups for the beard or what you're calling the girl stuff the blush. It would be great because people who are lucky enough to be non-binary might want to go out looking this way some days and other days full on Glam and other days like this but amping up masculine characteristics if you can use that term in a face that is otherwise neutral. That's kind of a lucky face to have but not always an easy one moving from one social environment to another. Might as well enjoy it by knowing how to make it into anything that person wants for that day!

I love you Johnnnnnnny 💋 #CorkyCarla

Fresh pineapple fresh papaya and I think fresh kiwi all have protein dissolving enzymes and if you rub those on your face I think they do the same thing. Or maybe it would be more accurate to say that they dissolve the dead skin cells. That may not quite be the same thing. I guess it would depend on what the Matrix is that makes the dead skin cells cling to the living cells underneath. If it's made of protein then pineapple and papaya fresh or frozen wood help exfoliate. I think kiwi does it too but I just can't remember....

EDIT: okay I’ll try the Pixie. I’ve had a spa facial that was billed as the very gentlest exfoliant and it hurt me. It was very fine beads too. It was a reputable shop. Everything was good, including excellent for my daughter. I would *never* use a chemical exfoliant (at least until you tell me there’s something gentler than gentle to use.)

I love love you

Do you have a makeup video for ladies in our 50’s????

What do you have on under your eyes
