2. 0:04>> Hey girls, welcome back to my channel.
3. 0:06And if you're new, I'm Akai Michelle.
4. 0:07Today we have another makeup tutorial
5. 0:09showing you my full routine with
6. 0:10drugstore makeup products. This is the
7. 0:12only drugstore makeup tutorial you'll
8. 0:14ever need. All right girls, when I say
9. 0:16all my products are going to be
10. 0:17budget-friendly in this video, all my
11. 0:18products are going to be budget-friendly
12. 0:20in this video. You know, I don't play
13. 0:21when it comes to skin care, so I'm
14. 0:22starting off by moisturizing my skin
15. 0:24with my Cerave moisturizer. I would like
16. 0:26to moisturize before going in with any
17. 0:27makeup products to make sure our skin is
18. 0:29ready to go and kind of provide a
19. 0:31barrier between our makeup and our skin.
20. 0:33Cuz if you know, you know, crusty skin
21. 0:35leads to crusty makeup. We don't do that
22. 0:37here. Now that our skin is all
23. 0:38moisturized, we look nice, plump, and
24. 0:40juicy, we can get into some primer.
25. 0:42Today for primer, I'm using a dupe to
26. 0:43one of my favorites, the Milk Hydro
27. 0:45Grip. This one is from Elf, it's the Elf
28. 0:47Power Grip Primer. They are just alike,
29. 0:49so I'm going in with this one. I always
30. 0:50like to focus my primer where my pores
31. 0:52are the most defined and noticeable,
32. 0:54which for me is right here in the center
33. 0:56of my face. I also like to focus on
34. 0:58places I tend to crease, like my smile
35. 0:59lines, and right here in this nose fold.
36. 1:02This primer gets real tacky, y'all. Give
37. 1:03that makeup something to stick to.
38. 1:12While we're at it, I also like to get my
39. 1:13brows out the way. Today I'm going in
40. 1:15with my NYX brow glue. I'm just going to
41. 1:16comb this gel through my brow hairs to
42. 1:18make sure they stay in place and they
43. 1:20are not moving.
44. 1:28For foundation, we are using the
45. 1:29Maybelline Superstay. I used to be
46. 1:31obsessed with the Maybelline Fit Me
47. 1:32foundation all throughout high school,
48. 1:34and I just think this is her cooler,
49. 1:36hotter, older sister. So we're going in
50. 1:38with Superstay.
51. 1:40This is in the shade 330. [music]
52. 1:42We're just going to go in and do some
53. 1:44circular motions. I always like to focus
54. 1:46my foundation on our perimeter, and
55. 1:48that's because this inner part of my
56. 1:50face is going to have so much more
57. 1:51product throughout the day. It's going
58. 1:52to have concealers, powders, and things
59. 1:54like that, while our perimeter tends to
60. 1:56be a little neglected, so we want to
61. 1:57make sure she's covered.
62. 2:03Do you see that base?
63. 2:06Tea.
64. 2:07That's because we took our time with
65. 2:08prepping our skin and the fact that this
66. 2:10foundation is just tea, like get into
67. 2:12it.
68. 2:19Now our foundation is on, but our face
69. 2:20is definitely looking a little flat. So,
70. 2:22we have to add some dimension. Today,
71. 2:23I'm going to do some cream bronzer using
72. 2:25my Black Opal foundation stick. This is
73. 2:27in the shade Suede Mocha. And I'm going
74. 2:29to apply this in the hollow of my cheek.
75. 2:33Now taking this dense angled brush, I'm
76. 2:35going to go ahead and tap on top of that
77. 2:37powder, letting her out and up through
78. 2:39our cheekbone. I'm going to take the
79. 2:41product that's left on my brush,
80. 2:44tap it down my jawline,
81. 2:48and up to our temple.
82. 2:51Our face is going to look like a nice
83. 2:53big E. I like to do this because I find
84. 2:56when I directly apply the product
85. 2:57straight to my jawline and my temple, it
86. 3:00tends to look a little bit harsh. So, I
87. 3:01prefer to use what's left on my brush.
88. 3:03It just looks a lot more airbrushed. And
89. 3:05also, you just don't need that much
90. 3:07product sometimes. I'm blending it up
91. 3:11once again and to our temple.
92. 3:16I also like to take what's left on my
93. 3:17brush and go down the sides of my nose
94. 3:19with it to do some contouring
95. 3:23and just add some definition back into
96. 3:24my nose.
97. 3:26I always take that product and go
98. 3:28straight into my brows so it looks nice
99. 3:29and seamless and there's no harsh stop
100. 3:31right here. All carved out, so it's time
101. 3:33to get to a girl's best friend, which is
102. 3:35blush. [music] I'm going in with a cream
103. 3:37blush tonight. This one is from Makeup
104. 3:39Revolution. One of my favorites. As you
105. 3:41can see, she's borderline empty. This is
106. 3:43a hot pink liquid blush in the shade
107. 3:45Savage Coral. I'm going to go in and
108. 3:47apply this to the highest point on my
109. 3:49cheek, which for me is right about here.
110. 3:51Placing your product higher up just
111. 3:53helps to bring a lifted sculpted look,
112. 3:55which is my go-to, my signature
113. 3:57actually. I live for a little snatch
114. 3:59moment. And when I'm blending this
115. 4:00through, I'm focusing it here, and again
116. 4:03moving up with my brush. I'm going to
117. 4:05bring it down to about the midpoint of
118. 4:07my eye, really focus in this under eye
119. 4:09area. And where you apply the product is
120. 4:11where it's going to be the most
121. 4:12concentrated. For example, when it came
122. 4:14to my contour, I applied that darker
123. 4:16foundation right in the hollow of my
124. 4:18cheek because I wanted it to be the most
125. 4:20intense there. When it comes to my
126. 4:21blush, I want it to be most intense in
127. 4:23the high point of my cheek. I'll blend
128. 4:24out the edges where I also want blush,
129. 4:26but the focus is always going to be in
130. 4:28that high point. Everywhere else is just
131. 4:29blown out. Okay, girls, now our next
132. 4:31step is highlighting. For highlighting
133. 4:33today, I'm taking two concealers from
134. 4:34L'Oreal.
135. 4:35>> [music]
136. 4:35>> This lighter one is in the shade 380
137. 4:37pecan, and this darker one is in the
138. 4:39shade 395 walnut. First, I'm taking that
139. 4:42darker concealer walnut. She's lighter
140. 4:43than me, but she is darker than our
141. 4:45other concealer. So, this one I'm going
142. 4:47to apply on my chin, my cupid's bow,
143. 4:51and the middle portion of my under eye.
144. 4:55Now, on the inner and outer corners of
145. 4:56my under eye, I'm taking pecan, the
146. 4:58lightest concealer. I'm going to pop
147. 4:59this in my inner and outer corner.
148. 5:05And to blend this out, I'm taking this
149. 5:06small dense brush. I'm going to blend
150. 5:08out the edges of that concealer first.
151. 5:09[music] Once again, just make sure
152. 5:11everything is blown out, and then I'll
153. 5:12work my way into the center.
154. 5:24And you already know I'm lifting her up.
155. 5:26Mhm. Real snatched, thank you.
156. 5:37Now, I'm going to go with my beauty
157. 5:38blender just to do some final blending,
158. 5:40especially in that inner corner, so we
159. 5:42can make sure everything looks nice and
160. 5:44smooth.
161. 5:51>> I'm taking what's left on my sponge just
162. 5:53to tap on my nose bridge
163. 5:56and in the center of my forehead.
164. 6:00Going back in with the brush I used for
165. 6:01my liquid blush earlier, I'm going to
166. 6:03tap this on the edges of that concealer
167. 6:06because I want you to be able to tell
168. 6:08where things start and stop.
169. 6:16Again, this is no added product, just
170. 6:18what's left on my brush. Now take my
171. 6:20contour brush, I'm going to run this
172. 6:22through my lid
173. 6:23just to add some dimension and color to
174. 6:25our eyes.
175. 6:26I'm also going to blend out this line
176. 6:29right here
177. 6:30>> [music]
178. 6:30>> from my concealer.
179. 6:38And taking that same brush,
180. 6:41I'm going down my nose once [music]
181. 6:42again.
182. 6:47After we apply that concealer, we just
183. 6:49got to return what was lost in the
184. 6:50process, okay? Okay, girls, everything
185. 6:52is blended. Our base looks so good.
186. 6:55Like, who would have thought this was
187. 6:57all drugstore? Ooh,
188. 6:59look at that base. Oh my gosh. I'm kind
189. 7:01of shook by them so. I already did this.
190. 7:04I know that's right.
191. 7:06Yeah, girl, let's get into setting,
192. 7:07okay? Now you know, when it comes to me,
193. 7:09you got to set where it's what? I don't
194. 7:11play that no powder stuff, okay? We're
195. 7:13not scared of powder over here. We are
196. 7:15not running from powder. So I was on a
197. 7:17mission to find a flawless drugstore
198. 7:18powder for you, and I think we got one.
199. 7:20This is the L'Oreal Infallible Blur
200. 7:22Perfection Powder in the shade light
201. 7:23pink. This is such a pretty and fine
202. 7:26milk powder. It's just buttery smooth. I
203. 7:28love it. Never mind the fact that it's
204. 7:30pink. I mean, that is just a perk, but
205. 7:33this powder is actually so nice and
206. 7:35fine. I'm tapping my powder puff into
207. 7:37the powder. Taking what's on my powder
208. 7:39puff and working it into our hands so we
209. 7:41can make sure that our puff has a nice
210. 7:43and even coating.
211. 7:47Going to hit that under eye with one
212. 7:48more blend, just to make sure there's no
213. 7:50creases that we're setting in place with
214. 7:51powder. You don't want to set the
215. 7:53creases in place. So, before you apply
216. 7:54that powder, make sure she's all nice
217. 7:56and blended out. Then we're going to
218. 7:58look up [music] to stretch that skin
219. 8:00and press the powder into our under eye.
220. 8:03I always do my under eye first when I'm
221. 8:05[music] setting it just because that's
222. 8:07usually the first place to crease on me.
223. 8:09So, before she has any chance to, I want
224. 8:11to make sure we set her with powder. And
225. 8:13look at that.
226. 8:16So pretty and flawless, like [music]
227. 8:20are you kidding me? And now we can go in
228. 8:22and set the rest of our highlighted
229. 8:23areas. And we're using that same
230. 8:25technique, taking the powder on my puff,
231. 8:27working it into my hands to make sure
232. 8:29it's nice and even,
233. 8:31and then pressing it into our skin.
234. 8:36Give that under eye a final blend.
235. 8:43Now press the powder.
236. 8:49I mean, just beautiful. Beautiful,
237. 8:51beautiful, beautiful. This is what the
238. 8:53fans want to see. Exactly. I'm also
239. 8:55going to take some powder down the
240. 8:57center of my nose
241. 8:59and the center of that forehead.
242. 9:03I don't like to highlight too much on
243. 9:04that forehead, okay? The forehead is big
244. 9:06enough already. Just that little center
245. 9:08in between the brows, okay? But you know
246. 9:10what I recently realized, the forehead
247. 9:11really isn't that big, it's just these
248. 9:13weaves and sew-ins. When I have my slick
249. 9:14purse, the forehead
250. 9:16it was a three-head, real small, real
251. 9:18tiny. It be these damn sew-ins and wigs
252. 9:20snatching [music]
253. 9:21her back. Oh, no. Got to get over on
254. 9:23that.
255. 9:25I'm also going to take some of that
256. 9:26powder and carve out right where my
257. 9:27contour was applied cuz sometimes it can
258. 9:30be easy for contour to get a little
259. 9:31messy. We just got to clean her up.
260. 9:33Powder is literally like an eraser in
261. 9:35makeup. If you ever apply too much
262. 9:37product, go over with some translucent
263. 9:39powder, she'll erase her [music] away.
264. 9:41Okay, now our highlight areas are set in
265. 9:43place, but what about everything else?
266. 9:44We got to set where it's wet. So, to set
267. 9:46my contoured areas, I'm going in with my
268. 9:48L'Oreal Infallible powder foundation.
269. 9:50This is in the shade 375, it's deep
270. 9:52amber. [music] And we're going to set
271. 9:53everywhere I applied that cream bronzer
272. 9:55earlier. Be very careful with this one
273. 9:57cuz she's pigmented, she's meant to be a
274. 9:59foundation, so it's very easy to go
275. 10:01overboard. And then tap into the product
276. 10:04and then tap off all that off, okay?
277. 10:05[music]
278. 10:06Not going to ruin my makeup with a heavy
279. 10:07hand. Uh-uh.
280. 10:10Do some circular motions so you can make
281. 10:12sure everything looks nice and
282. 10:13airbrushed. And do those circular
283. 10:15motions down my jawline as well.
284. 10:18Then up to the forehead.
285. 10:21I'm never playing when it comes to
286. 10:22contouring this forehead, child.
287. 10:25Work her [music] in.
288. 10:28Literally, gorgeous.
289. 10:30I'm gagging.
290. 10:34I'm slicking my damn self. Okay, like
291. 10:37>> [laughter]
292. 10:38>> Yes. I'm also going to take this brush
293. 10:40[music] and run it through my lid.
294. 10:43Bringing in some warmth to that eye.
295. 10:45>> [music]
296. 10:45>> I know that's right.
297. 10:50Now, I'm taking this smaller pencil
298. 10:51brush. This brush, I don't know where
299. 10:53it's from, girl. I'm telling you, lots
300. 10:54of my brushes are from Amazon. I've
301. 10:56ordered packs and packs and packs over
302. 10:57the years. I be collecting brushes like
303. 10:59Infinity Stones. I don't know where this
304. 11:00one is from. I personally think it's
305. 11:02hard to find bad brushes. Most brushes
306. 11:04are made alike. So, sometimes I have all
307. 11:06the details, but I'm taking this small
308. 11:08pencil brush. I'm sure you can find her
309. 11:10anywhere. And with some of that contour
310. 11:11powder on it, I'm going to run this down
311. 11:13the bridge of my nose
312. 11:15using an extremely light hand because I
313. 11:18don't want my nose to be too pinched. I
314. 11:21just want to set that contour.
315. 11:30And then I always like round out my tip.
316. 11:35Gorgeous, honey.
317. 11:37Now bringing back to a girl's best
318. 11:38friend, which is our blush, honey. Today
319. 11:40I'm using my NYX Buttermilk blush. Such
320. 11:42a pretty [music] beautiful shade. This
321. 11:44is in the color cool pink. Look how
322. 11:46pretty that color is.
323. 11:49Insane.
324. 11:56I also love to take my blush, apply some
325. 11:57[music] on my chin, on my nose, and just
326. 12:01dust her over that under eye.
327. 12:04For a nice wash of color.
328. 12:08Now that our face is all set in place,
329. 12:09we can get into these brows. Today I'm
330. 12:11just going to fill them in with one of
331. 12:12my favorite brow pencils. This is the
332. 12:15NYX Micro Brow Pencil in the shade
333. 12:16black.
334. 12:21And we're just going to hit those sparse
335. 12:22areas and add some more hairs to the
336. 12:24front because I love a good long brow.
337. 12:36Now if there's one thing you can always
338. 12:38count on the drugstore to have, it's a
339. 12:40good mascara. Today I'm using my Essence
340. 12:42Lash Princess. I used to use this
341. 12:43mascara years ago and recently I had to
342. 12:45spin the block. She is too good.
343. 12:51Beautiful.
344. 12:53Okay. Now for falsies, I'm using my
345. 12:55favorite lashes from Amazon. They're
346. 12:57already linked. This is in the style
347. 12:58Desire. I cut them in half for that nice
348. 13:01wispy cat eye look. So this inner corner
349. 13:03of the lash is now going to be applied
350. 13:05to the middle part of my eye, and what
351. 13:06was originally the middle part of the
352. 13:08falsie is going to be applied to the
353. 13:10outer corner of my eye.
354. 13:26I mean, who doesn't love a good cat eye?
355. 13:28Okay, girls, my dry and the face is
356. 13:30done. Now, let's get into these
357. 13:31finishing touches to bring the look
358. 13:33together. Starting off with my lips, I'm
359. 13:35taking my NYX lip liner in the shade
360. 13:36Downtown Beauty. This is such a pretty
361. 13:39warm brown. I just think that NYX has
362. 13:41the drugstore lip products on lock,
363. 13:43okay?
364. 13:58And for lipstick, this is cream nude by
365. 14:00Milani.
366. 14:02And for gloss, our NYX Butter Gloss in
367. 14:04the shade Creme Brulee.
368. 14:12And of course, my base is not complete
369. 14:14without my Maybelline Fit Me pressed
370. 14:15powder. This is in the shade 130.
371. 14:17And we're just going to sweep this in
372. 14:19our under eye.
373. 14:25Love it, every single time.
374. 14:27Every time.
375. 14:31And for setting spray, I'm using a dupe
376. 14:32to my one size, my L'Oreal Infallible
377. 14:34setting spray.
378. 14:47And this is the only drugstore makeup
379. 14:48tutorial you'll ever need.
380. 14:54Okay, girls, we have officially made it
381. 14:56to the end of this video. This is our
382. 14:57final look. Girl, get into that flawless
383. 14:59base. And drugstore at that.
