BEST MAKEUP OF 2024.....SO FAR!!!

[@susanmc6445]

Risa: I know as hard as you try, when someone criticizes you (and me), you take it to heart. I learned a long, long time ago, in almost 100% of cases, when someone is critical of you, it is because they are JEALOUS of you! You are so not a joke - you are a beautiful, talented, fit woman who takes great care of herself. Be blessed today and try to let it roll off your back.

[@karolinaks4192]

Your makeup looks gorgeous!❤️

[@sandilang3845]

Risa, I just wanted to tell that I have followed you for awhile. You are beautiful, talented and smart. Of course being a woman that wears makeup I am always interested in watching and learning from you. I have too much makeup which I may never even get to try because of being influenced , but I am trying not be so over indulgent with my purchases because I’m running out of room to store all of it. However, because I have similar coloring to you I can use your exact purchase and color choices that you vlog about. You are kind, sweet, and honest while explaining who and why the products might help or hinder in particular people that it might not be good for. You are truly appreciated!

[@DebbieDooo]

You're NOT a joke and are entitled to your opinion just like everyone else ❤️. I love your reviews.

[@vsalohastate2337]

OMG! Risa your love of makeup and integrity makes you a valued voice in this influencer world - a huge reason why you are loved by so many of us! You are definitely not a joke, please ignore naysayers. But, good for you for being strong and forthright and standing your ground. ❤

[@gardenhappy4]

I agree. Integrity is in abundance on the channel. I trust her thoughts are genuine and offered to her viewers with the highest intentions. Thanks Risa!

[@lindsayk40]

people have become so cruel and unappreciative. people like you honestly get me through my work week. let’s be kinder people.

[@katsm-wo9704]

Yes kindness cannot be overrated it isn’t possible

[@katsm-wo9704]

I have just recently purchased several cream and liquid blushes, but have not gone there yet with contour or bronzer. There is a bit of a learning curve and probably I need to use different brushes. I have a lot of brushes so hopefully I can find something in what I have and not have to purchase one, especially for this task.

[@katsm-wo9704]

A question about the Pat McGrath pink under eye setting powder. Are you in love with the formula or the shade or both nice under setting powders in translucent and I have one overall setting powder and soft rose that I sometimes use under my eyes just curious about what attracts you to the product Over the translucent one or if it is in place of the translucent one. Ramble but I guess in a nutshell did you try the translucent shade prior to trying the pink shade or was the pink shade the first one you tried?

[@katsm-wo9704]

I just purchased that cold smoulder nudes palette. Bit of an issue getting it as I ordered it and they sent me the warm one and then didn’t want to exchange it even though it was not my issue. I was able to go into store and exchange it without any problem, it is truly a little gem. A cool tone lovers dream was just the right amount of choice and the proper size

[@catjalapeno]

Right? I had the absolute worst day, and seeing that Risa put up a new video- instant smile. People are just so damn petty and moronic. Like way to go, let’s be a clown to someone that’s taking time of THEIR life to bring others joy. So needless.

[@carisa4420]

You cannot please everyone… and so many feel they have to voice an opinion. You are not a joke! Been watching you for years!!

[@janetmyhre9536]

I totally agree

[@sherryhall1259]

I think you're fantastic! I'm 61 and found it so refreshing to find someone who actually "has" hooded eyes just like me! Love all your tips and tricks. Sometimes I purchase your recommendations and they either work or don't work for me (and that's OK!). I'll still keep watching. As someone that works in the events profession, I learned long ago that you're never going to make everyone happy and you know what? That's OK! You just keep being you.❤❤❤

[@katiebrunner4376]

The way people get offended over silly things never ceases to amaze me. Opinions are exactly that. Opinions 😑🤦🏼‍♀️

[@RisaDoesMakeup]

💯

[@christineg452]

Risa, you are NOT a joke! You are kind, thoughtful, straightforward. Like you said, it’s just make up. Make up. With everything going on in this world, it’s pretty sad for this person to say what she did. Keep being the beautiful person you are!!

[@annamarkus4631]

Risa, I am in my 50's and have oily skin. You are my favorite you-tuber and respect your opinions on products. I'm sorry you get some rude comments. You are honest, genuine, beautiful and I hate that some people have to be so rude. It would be hard to let it roll off sometimes. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and honest opinions on products...good and bad. I also LOVE the new Mac Studio fix better than the original and the About Face foundation!

[@lisainfantes6583]

Risa, you are fabulous. If you are not someone's cup of tea 1- they have bad taste 2- no one is forcing them to watch

[@susanjeffries5108]

You're my favorite beauty content creator for a good reason: I love your honesty and fun personality, you give great advice and tips, and you do it in a very approachable, friendly way. Even if you're using a $150 foundation, you seem fresh and relatable. That is no mean feat and I'm so glad you have had so much growth in your channel lately! Keep up the GREAT work.

[@JaylaA.Benson]

Risa, I love your content and kindness. When someone is being nasty behind the screen, I always remember what one of my bosses told me, “MISERY NEEDS COMPANY!” Don’t let these people get to your beautiful soul. ❤️

[@sharronlee3505]

Your haircolor is so flattering.

[@sherihelms242]

Risa I love your recommendations & you were the first makeup Expert content creator I started watching on KZbin a few years ago. I am 61 with very dry skin & live in humid OK & I learn something new from every video! Not only do you make our world a more beautiful place because of your expertise in beauty, but you are a beautiful blessing to every woman that follows you! Stay true to you! ❤ thank you!!!

[@libertychic8926]

U cannot please them all, girl! And remember, misery loves company. U keep on, keeping on, being beautifully YOU!!!! 💜💜

[@PamelaH_HappyVibes]

Did you just say Stephanie Marie is wrong?! Bahahahaha 😂 You two are great! I needed that giggle, thank you. Risa, I really don’t like that you have to deal with rude comments. I’m exactly one year older than you but, I have normal to dry skin and I live in South Carolina, so it’s very humid. What works for you just may not work for me, it’s ok! It’s not that serious and really good to know. My Corporate Office is located in Las Vegas, when I go there I will bring different makeup. I’m just glad you talk about makeup and beauty because I love this subject. You rock, Risa, don’t ever forget that.

[@jillpotts7472]

i loved and appreciated that blush ranking video. it's so hard to ignore mean comments. we humans remember the negative comments.. its too bad.

[@joannpare3978]

I enjoy and appreciate all of your videos, even when I don’t share the same opinion on a product. We all have different skin types/issues. It’s my belief that haters are just miserable, envious people. I love your positive energy but good for you for standing up for yourself ❤

[@latherandlace]

Your hair looks gorgeous today! I love the curls! I also love your favorites!❤

[@RisaDoesMakeup]

Thank you so much!!

[@tasplund3397]

Soooo Far from joke… I’m 59 live in Florida with dry skin but I watch and love your videos because you always say you like or don’t like something based on your experience and your skin… this still helps me to find things that work for me and my climate. So, thank you. You are helping ALL of us❤

[@ProfMary]

Please don't get discouraged by negative comments, Risa! I think you do a marvelous job with your videos. They are honest and informative. I trust your judgement. Even though you may get tons of positive feedback, the few negative ones seem to linger in your mind. I was a professor in a college setting and would get evaluations each semester. While I would get many very positive, supportive comments about my work, it was the one or two negative ones I tended to dwell on. Frustrating but it is human nature. Just know that you are loved and respected by the vast majority of your viewers and we look forward to your content. Keep up the good work.

[@laurelhalper3751]

Why is it that we all zero in on the one hurtful comment rather than all the positive responses? I value your videos especially because you are so honest. I trust your evaluations because I feel that you do know what you’re talking about. You have experience. It is up to me as to whether or not I agree or want to try a particular product. Please (and I know it is difficult at times) don’t stop doing exactly what you have always done. We subscribers want to know what YOU think. ❤️

[@RisaDoesMakeup]

You’re so right, and it’s something I, as well as a lot of my content creator friends struggle with. We get so much love and positive feedback but then that one nasty comment can really sting! Luckily it usually only takes me a couple of hours to get over it! 🥰

[@annetteholmes4525]

Risa, I will be honest, the first few videos I watched. I wasn't sure if I liked the content...but as I watched some others, I honestly didn't feel they compared to you...and came back to watch again and again! Now I watch every video you put out, love your presentations ,how you speak and describe products, and love you! I have been in the beauty industry for over 30 years, used many products...keep doing what your doing!

[@charliesgirl_co263]

Risa, I’m brand new to your channel and just found you today. I turned 63 earlier this month and so far really like your tutorials (watched 4). You are no joke! Critics see you as a threat. The older you get, the less you will care about opinions. Don’t take them to heart!

[@Leah_Michelle_21]

Risa I just want you to know how much I appreciate you! I'm a woman similar to your age, and I've learned so much from you! I've been slowly getting back into makeup and your channel has given me the confidence to be myself!

I highly value your opinion about makeup and other products . I don't care if someone else dosen't like it , your esthetics are simular to mine. What it don't like is when people are not nice for no good reason.

Civility costs nothing, you have built a lovely community, she will be jealous Risa. I will definitely be purchasing the leave in conditioner. X

[@NicoleIbarraRD]

Please don't listen to that person or take it to heart. You are NOT a joke whatsoever. You are such a kind soul that provides a lot of value to people who want to know good products and we all have our differences of opinions. One product that might work for someone may not work for another (i.e. glowy foundations for people with oily skin). Keep doing what you're doing! ❤❤❤

Oh good! I’m glad to hear I’m not alone! 😊

[@MrsBrendaEB]

Well, I just turned 62 and have never been really good with makeup. I just started watching your channel and am thinking of trying false eyelashes. I also have hooded eyelids, but dry skin. Watching your channel has helped me a lot and not to be afraid to at least try. Opinions are like noses, everybody has one.

[@hinabarron3842]

We love you Risa! Keep giving us your honest opinions! Would love a hair tutorial on today's look. BEAUTIFUL 🤩

I want to thank you for your tireless commitment to all those that follow. From the blue bathrobe content to ur full glam beat! You are honest, consistent and so appreciated by me( and many others) that have more mature skin. Thank you for being you!

[@mollee_llama]

Your review of the Morphe palettes is what prompted me to buy the platinum and the gold. I keep thinking about the rose gold, but haven’t pulled the trigger yet. I also purchased the warm and cool Too faced palettes. You and I have completely different skin type, but I adore your style and the colors you choose. You look beautiful today (as always).

[@teresahartford7625]

I adore The Performer from about face. So so good.

[@angelamiller7164]

Oh Lisa! Makeup is fun and everyone has an opinion we are all so different. Please dont take negative comments so personally and feel as though you have to defend yourself over blush etc. You put yourself in the public eye and your gonna get the debbie downers...... ignore them and be the best version of yourself! You bring light, fun and beauty to our lives a nice escape from hard things in our lives. I know its easier said than done, but you dont have to defend yourself❤ You are Amazing

[@LolaD88]

Risa, haters are gonna hate! I think you are a fabulous resource. I truly believe that some people don't have a voice in their real life, YT becomes an outlet for those that live in a tiny bubble and are desperate to be heard and poke at those that live their best lives. You are a ROCKSTAR!

[@joanjaffe4216]

Risa, I am a lipstick junkie (I am 77). I just bought and love the Westman Atelier suede matte lipstick in Je Reve. Before this purchase I had only one matte lipstick (MAC's Velvet Teddy in the original formula). A sephora sales associate was raving about how creamy the Westman Atelier lipstick is and she was right. They are very pigmented so depending on the application, you can tone down the color. They don't have many colors but the shade I bought is perfect for me. I sometimes add a touch of gloss.

[@RisaDoesMakeup]

Hi! Yes, I purchased one during the Sephora sale back in April and I agree, it’s a great formula.

[@carolclarke5839]

I love watching your reviews so independent and thorough ❤❤❤

[@ninimimi2906]

People need to get a grip and also realize the very simple fact that if you have oily skin or dry or combo, a product may very well not sit as well on your skin as theirs.Not only do skin type and climate play a huge role in the way your makeup will look, but light will too! I live in France and when I go to visit my mom in Texas the foundation which looks great on me in France (color wise) looks too yellow in Texas because the sun hits differently there. It is really astonishing! Take care and thanks again for another great video ❤❤❤

[@rosiemartinez6399]

Love your hair today Risa.. & make-up !! .. you are ALWAYS so professional & honest with your personal reviews.. I admire you so much …❤

[@dorikell5179]

Thank you for the support. I know it bothers some people when content creators express any frustration or disappointment about their jobs, but I’ll never understand that either. We are real people with real feelings. Maybe it’s wrong, but a lot of us do consider our viewers as online friends, so we feel it’s “safe” to express ourselves fully once in a while.

Hi Risa. When I have that issue with the glasses nose pad, I get the pads replaced and have it adjusted. If your glasses do not have pads, consider having the nose pad metal arms installed to your glasses. I get everything done at Lense Crafters ❤
