You’ve become my favorite beauty YouTuber. I gave up trying after I couldn’t make my face look like theirs. I finally realized the whole FaceTune and filter problem, but then I didn’t have anywhere else to go. Your looks are so beautiful and can be worn anytime and you can make them as natural or bold as you want. You teach actual techniques that don’t involve me having to buy out Sephora’s tool or makeup section. So thank you ♥️

I'm a makeup artist with 30 years experience. I'm so impressed by your techniques. You bring an element of ease to the intimidating world of makeup. I have learned so much from you & you are a pleasure to watch. 😊

[MiaNamboothiripad]

Smitha, no other make up artists ever understood the practical challenges as you do.
I read someone commenting here they felt you are personally communicating with them I feel so, many feels so.
Again no words to thank you for this tip. It’s Fantabulous.

Smitha, I have learned so much from you! I'm in my mid 50s and had almost stopped wearing eyeshadow because my hoods are getting lower and more prominent and my eyes are looking very uneven in height and shape. I've picked up quite a few tips from your videos and now I feel more confident adding a bit of contouring to help my eyes look more open, even, and lifted. Thank you! Happy New Year!

Beautifully clear demonstration of exactly how to do this. I prefer it when you finish up with a shot of your full face and not just the eye. The close up of the eye is essential for the demonstration, but the full face gives context and a better idea of the colours and style. Just my opinion.

At last!!! Its SO good to see and hear someone use PROPER eyeshadow base/primer instead of concealer! Almost every single tutorial or 'MUA' I see uses concealer as an eye base, which is the worst product to use, particularly as you say, on oily lids.
Your content is GREAT! So educational but simple and easy to understand- congratulations!

Fuss-free Smitha, fully understanding the lives of those who live life on the run!

I hate fast food, but I love fast, delicious makeup application.

[priyasingh]

You addressed all small issues, I personally face this problem almost every time.... That's why love you ❣️

I honestly don't know what I would have done if I didn't discover your channel. Where all other beauty creators have FAILED to give adequate, concise and effective instruction, you have succeeded, and then some. You are a life saver. You understand what the average girl/woman struggles with in her makeup application, and you address those issues in a way that is easy to understand, easy to recreate, and always effortlessly stunning. Your channel is a gold mine of great advice, and no other beauty channel has done that for me. *NONE.* (And I can tell from the other comments that I'm not alone in this!) I don't even watch other channels for instruction anymore, only for product reviews. When it comes to instruction, I already know that no one else is going to do a better job than you do. Thank you so much for what you do.♥️

You have single handedly revolutionized the way I use eyeshadow! I often didn't use it because I found it hard to do with my heavy hooded eyes, so I would just do mascara and a highlight and call it a day. Now I can try so many easy fun styles because of your concise and informative videos! I must add that using a nail art brush to line your eyes is pure genius and so affordable! Thank-you so much for every video!

[sasha]

I love this channel over 50 and now I am finally learning how to apply makeup correctly and easily

[ElizabethT]

It makes so much sense to cleanse the eyelid to remove oils, just like using nail polish remover to clean nails before the base coat. Thanks for the great tip!

[MissV]

Thank you for saying what should be used for oily eyelids. Eyeshadow primer vs concealer. I see so many use concealer. I now know I should use the primer

[danette]

Love this! I have hooded & crepey eyes. Your looks are always something I can look forward to learning and doing on myself. Thank you for the content! 😍

[vivianas.]

I really wanted to say THANK YOU: I've always watched so many makeup artists/influencers using the concealer as a primer and I did not understand why my results were so poor. Your tips are just amazing and totally lifesaver! 💜

[carolinejohn]

Beautiful, as always. I wish my skin was as crease and line free as yours, alas at 68 I'm always dissatisfied at my efforts but still keep trying, I've always loved make up. Love your channel- thanks so much for sharing x

[anithompson]

I have oily lids and concealer actually Helps. Just always set with powder. Great video and tips smitha!

[ashishraj]

Smitha such a simple but elegant look, your small, small tips & tricks really helps a lot in creating the beautiful looks. Thanks for sharing💕💕

Speaking of Wet'n'Wild, their eyeshadow primer Photofocus is THE BEST product I've ever tried. My eyelid is so greasy it can only keep my make-up unsmugded within ONE hour. And with Photofocus it stays for 9-12 hours which is legit a record
