BLACK EYES

hi guys !! so happy to share this video. this is a look that is kind of a classic in France. smudge black in your eyes and call it a day. I love it because it teaches us to accept imperfection ! its so charming ! I am not a fan of super sharp liners, super blended shadows. it looks so full of effort. I like a smudge eye like that.
hope you like it !

A smart, well spoken, beautiful woman who isn’t following any beauty trends, Except her own. Bravo Violette

[@arabianlayla1564]

Nicole Giron she is Paris

Arabian Layla this video is in LA but most of her videos are in NYC

[@arabianlayla1564]

Barb Robbins I know sweet , I meant violette represent Paris beauty philosophy 😇☺️ .

[@aprilspencer4836]

So well said

[@luchianecaterina3913]

The vibes of her videos are so ... french

[@manelmanel9635]

Makes sense she's french

[@AyakaSano]

honestly that's the biggest compliment

[@ilariailu6780]

I do this and always thought I must be the only one to find it more flattering than the full on make up instagram beat blah. Thank you for reinforcing the idea that messy is cool

[@blueheart1331]

Am I the only one who's hearing random loud beeps during the video?

[@nrahman3439]

it makes me jump every time...like a smoke alarm that needs battery change

[@Alayne89]

@@nrahman3439 Are you by any chance Australian?

[@christinahernandez352]

It’s not beeping, it’s the mic giving feedback every time she says a word that starts with a hard S

[@adelinewurzer4533]

bitch thank god i thought my hallucinations were back hahahahaha

[@fullofhope6978]

yes i heard them too!

[@hiya9697]

I find that the natural lighting / setting really showed me the difference when you placed the concealer. Once one eye was done and not the other it really stood out. I thought to myself, WHOA I NEED that concealer. Tres gentil mon cher! XO Bonjour du Vancouver Canada >'.'

[@Saadysalma]

I always get the urge to recreate your looks right after Im done watching xD

[@Christinamychas]

Salma Theurgist me too! 🥰

[@sophiewijsheid4411]

[@Christinamychas]

Always adore your videos and I love this truly effortless Smokey eye ❤️ if you haven’t made one yet, I would love to see a video on how to enhance hooded eyes - I feel like any shadow gets buried in my hooded eyes - merci from Toronto!

[@laflaks]

style apotheca yes to this!

[@krystalmurphy617]

I really appreciate that you did the second eye and didn’t speed through it

[@amandateoh1164]

i've followed her for so long but havent had time to catch up, and now im hearing her say baby!?!? SHE'S A MOTHER NOW!!! AAAAAA IM SO HAPPY FOR HER 😍

[@ogch5816]

Yes!, her name is Inés😍

[@versatilecore7075]

A black smoky eye on the go, using your fingers only. You only see that on Violette's channel. As a French girl myself, I really appreciate that she does many different looks and infuse them with that "French touch" that foreigners seem to love so much. Yes, we do more than this natural face + bright red lip that you see everywhere on youtube.

[@ananyasubramani4596]

I like her but she seems like the kind of MUA who can only do makeup for those with perfect skin.

[@musingsofajay387]

Then why not just watch those that do, and then apply Violette's techniques over that. Not every MUA is going to cater to every type of skin

[@garbagek7283]

MusingsofaJay♡ are you dumb, perhaps? A professional MUA should be able to cater to all skin types and tones. What’s the point of being an artist then??

[@GDInspirations]

It depends, as she states at the start of every video her philosophy is to embrace you imperfections.

[@riaso5157]

She's more on skin care and her products are expensive I became.a fan.of.her tho

[@Nadia-ls6qx]

This makeup is meant to be imperfect and a bit f***ed up..... you caught the essential ness of it!!! Love it

[@chelsealauren1258]

I just want to say because of you, Violette, I have changed my outlook on my own beauty and makeup. I find less is more and i look and feel like a different person because of your videos. Thank you! I wear the confidence in my face and not just my makeup. ❤

[@sarrahfadul]

This was my look for all 5 years of uni and I loved it! Instant sexiness with zero effort

[@anam.delcampo8634]

You look incredible!!! You were glowing even before the makeup. Could you please share your post-baby routine with us? Lash treatment, diet, exercise, skincare? Thanks! ❤️

[@alikat8221]

Haha, “a bit f****d up” is not something I ever expected to come out of your mouth in a video, Violette 😂 Sleep deprivation is so real. Love this video, as usual xx

[@hbun4328]

Please cut down the intro Violette!

[@Question8619]

hbun not to be rude but loved the way it was before no intro she does not need it.

[@VivBeyer1111]

The intro is perfect as it is, for me at least...I hum to the song every time I hear it.

[@gailspear2173]

I have just watched a makeup u tuber where she used five different eye shadows in one go argh! Much prefer these looks from violette

[@DearHumanity]

Minus the lipstick, this is my everyday make-up and general effortless style. Love simple yet intense smokey eyes :)

[@kirstymacfarlane1620]

This is how I like to do makeup, you're absolutely gorgeous! School girls and women wear far too much makeup, I mean who goes and gets their makeup done for a night out?! Your tutorials are great, I feel like you've taken a lot of pressure off when it comes to makeup, for me personally. I now know I can do my makeup like this instead of taking an hour jyst to blend eyeshadow for going out to dinner, this look you can do when you're out shopping for the afternoon! Thanks beautiful lady 💋💄💕😘

[@TheJazzy1980]

why I love French style so much. you guys have such effortless, perfectly imperfect, natural style. American style is so cookie cutter, perfect, blah 😴

[@ashl3ymich3ll3]

Love everything except the filming was too shaky, it made me feel sick.

[@kateriiiiiiiiiiiiina]

Great look, as always! What eyelash treatment have you been getting? Help a girl out, mine are falling off too 🙁

[@kimthai4639]

Love this video as always. Absolute perfection. Can't wait to spend my year abroad in Paris! Sending love to you &your family (Inès is the cutest baby ever!!)

[@luckyDancer100]

Violette uploaded a video... guess it’s time for a Sephora run 💅

[@petitsjoujoux5011]

I love this! Would also love to see a video on your jewelry collection because the ones you've worn on your videos are all very gorgeous!

[@noelledunn9796]

Just perfect. French beauty. Love the minimal makeup.

[@anazouhir1136]

Le style de Jane Birkin

[@lapislazuliblues5728]

This is my go-to look minus the liner on the waterline. I just love the hazy mysterious look it gives😍

[@NymfyASMR]

I'm in love with your videos. Could you do one for red eyeliner? 🖤

[@irenedisevo1500]

This is one of the most beautiful look you ever done!! I love it!! 😍 So effortless and simple! Amazing!!

[@HRHKG19]

"Unperfect and a bit fucked up." My new mantra! ;-)

[@ideaizzy8837]

This look has been my go to everyday look for years! ❤️

[@Khvost_]

Ivy X everyday? Wow. I can't imagine wearing such a dark look every day

[@kerryfox7706]

Merci again for another super beautiful look to add to our ‘makeup wardrobes’ I love eye makeup to look a bit fucked ... I feel my sexiest when it’s like this... I love love love your videos and your work truly inspires me everyday to take 5 mins for myself 👑🙏🏽😍💋 xxx

[@tanachke]

What is the lash treatment you are using??❤

[@wanderer410]

What's with most French women never wearing bras?

[@quirkyjerseygirl9584]

Will definitely be trying this look very soon! So simple!!

[@elinormarciano9870]

J'adore !! comme d'habitude :) toujours aussi belle et créative ! j'adore cette approche simple et sophistiquée du maquillage

[@ingrid9194]

She makes me feel that I just need good skin and healthy hair, blush and I'm done 😍

[@sophiavillegas3318]

I love your beauty aproach and how you emphasise on the imperfect effortless 👌🏻💜

[@DoodleWrite]

So I have to know -- what's the name of the song in the intro?!

[@lenaverlooy6231]

I wonder as well!!

[@rotemalfandari]

Merci violette 💕 l tried the “Bardo look” ( which was amazing) but this look is much better for work. It is definitely LBD makeup 💕

[@AA-ts2wi]

I love the way this makes brown eyes pop

[@Joanweer]

That's not a fucked up makeup, this is a *normal* makeup! Something everyone can do in the morning before going to school, uni, work etc something to improve your face and not to cover it completely. Loved it! ❤️

[@MIOLAZARUS]

is this post baby?! Your body is SOOO beautiful.

[@ncdmusicinspires]

I'm really living the concealer trick for the under eyes! I'm back at college and my dark circles are back! 😩

[@kkokkosae]

컨실러만 발랐을때 진짜 이뻐요! Look like a girl of 18 years old

[@theresag1969]

That Haus black liquid eyeshadow is the most interesting shadow I've seen in years. Besides yours, Violette_fr, of course.

[@MS-kn4tt]

I like to use Laura Mercier's caviar stick in Smoke for this. It's like a dark gunmetal color that works better with my blue eyes and pale skin and it stays on really well. :)

[@brianlee2039]

Is the laura mercier caviar stick creamy enough to do this though? The pencil must be flexible and creamy enough for blending out... pls let me know as I’m keen to try out this look with my caviar sticks... thanks!

[@anettekvam]

Love this look, and I how how you take your time to explain and show us the steps properly! 🥰 We all love to learn more about how to do the French effortless🤗😘

[@BreakCards]

I love the natural, care fere and Bohemian vibes I absorb from this video

[@aiai-j7i]

Violette, could you just post a 12" version of the song? I love it, it is so cool and it is great to listen while getting ready to go out...it just makes one feel sexy, haha!

[@coffeetime3293]

I enjoyed watching but I prefer brushes over fingers. I cannot touch the skin on my face, because if i touch with fingers I will have bright pink spots on my skin, only sponges and brushes I may use.

[@makeupboss9812]

You must have good skin. Mine is not so good, I use a medium coverage foundation, with a light weight feel . But I need it as a result of bad sunburns , so for me, learning to love my skin without it, nope . But I love lightweight concealer, and a lot of times I find myself up late , and I have eye circles by morning. Those smoky black eyes are beautiful, nicely done. Nice and smooth. Makes your eyes sparkle.

[@Leonor851]

She is my favorite, that's it.

[@RommyFallas]

I wish you had used a tripod on the demonstration parts. The camera movement is extremely distracting.

[@MsRoseHoliday]

I see a red line on her nose. Am I the only one?

[@aijak2970]

It's simply perfection

[@yazminemazon]

I absolutely love Violette’s videos, but the camera work on this one is sooo shaky and difficult to watch 😫

[@vasilikichatzoglou1412]

My favorite look by my favorite make up artist

[@Sara_G94]

I always do this look when I'm tired of a precise winged liner, it just looks cooler and more mysterious! By the way, what is the eyelash treatment you're using? I'm losing so many lashes and I don't know what to do :(

[@michellerjackson5776]

Sar_Gar Me too!! Ugh..I read that applying organic cold pressed Castor oil with a clean mascara spoolie works..I apply every night after I have removed my makeup. I got it at my Health food store!

[@aprilspencer4836]

Violette love you You're the first youtuber I've come across to say accept imperfections Luv that 😍😍😍

[@rqlsb4]

😍😍😍😍😍😍❤❤❤ I love it!!! I'm not going out soon but I'm gonna do it anyway to watch movies!! Thank you Violette

[@EmelyTurish]

I was getting ready to screenshot the list of products at the end and realized they are in the description box 🤣

[@LolliPopCowGirl]

Violette I love your videos but what is Estee Lauder doing to reduce the waste, plastic, chemical and otherwise, from entering the environment? Would love to hear your thoughts on this issue.

[@MonicaBU]

What treatment are you using to make your lashes grow back?

[@aliciaf7746]

I’m early!!! 👋

[@milkglitter]

Violette, would you ever get a chance to use Lisa Eldridges lipsticks?

[@babsyb5711]

I missed your videos , please upload more often videos with your presence 💐💕

[@marmar920]

Hope I can go without bra walking in the city like she is

[@HerEditionTv]

I love her videos

[@sherlockhooked1175]

This is totally up my alley. I can relate to French style of makeup. Also that I am lazy

[@thymesawastin]

I like it. Do you feel the woman who still enjoys simple beauty “beyond early womanhood“ could wear this well? Makeup and mature French women would be very interesting, should you often see or know any of these beautiful women?

[@catarina624]

Absolutely.You just have to make it work.

[@necladalmis4379]

Du bist eine hübsche Frau. Deine Schminktutorials sind sehr gut. LG aus Deutschland

[@EliHoney]

This was my high school make up until I realized it didn't really flatter my hooded lids 😆

[@aiai-j7i]

That is my problem too...I always end up looking like a tacky biker chick...not like gorgeous Violette! :)

[@kate03-]

Hooded eyes are beautiful!

[@britneydaniels6294]

Glad you’re back! Congrats on your baby!

[@assemmyrzhikova5862]

I love everything about this video 😍 but also what song is this ? 🥺

[@executiveby_m7790]

J'adore ton style ton maquillage tu es vraiment une inspiration 😍

[@lesleydodd1509]

I love this😍 what treatment did you get for your lashes? X

[@aiai-j7i]

Your eyes are like dark ambers...gorgeous!

[@riri5104]

I do my makeup like french women now. I love it!

[@Arlene001]

Years later and i still love your intro the best. So chic

[@divinelydiana8334]

I just love the fact she uses her fingers. I love using my hands and fingers to apply makeup. 👆🏽👋🏽👌🏽

[@milkglitter]

Irrelevant but: Does anyone know if her Poppy Savage 305 the same as Poppy Savage 300 liquid lipstick?

[@Shaily.kapadia]

I love the song even though I do not understand the lyrics. Also your techniques😘😘😘😘😘

[@TomClarkSouthLondon]

Super upload even better than ASMR! Big Thumb 👍🆙🙏❤️🌹🇬🇧

[@aditirandev3591]

This is what make up should be like, a quick light touch up to accentuate your features, but nowadays make-up means face painting.

[@zetsuai09]

I have the Kiko eyeshadow stick in a different colour, but ofc I had to get another one. Haha. I will try this makeup look. It looks simple but it has a lot of impact I would say!! Love it

[@gracelee1101]

Does this work for monolid eyes?

[@skulltaylor1616]

The most perfect, likeable woman 💜

[@rietrouvrois5134]

So Beautiful and effortless Violette! 👌🏼 I have light skin, blonde hair and blue eyes. I’m wondering if i can pull this of without looking like a ghost 😁 But definitely gonna try! 😘

[@hollyxr5p671]

what's the intro music??

[@chauminh]

But i still love my matte foundation et matte powder foubdtion. Helps me sweat less shown on blotting paper. I exerciised with no foundation on neck one time. Blotting paper showed sweat. Can we see you use purple mascara. If you dont like foundation try the body shop pink cc cream

[@micapetey]

My eyelashes are a mess. Thin, pale and sparse. They were a little better when I used Latisse last year for 9 months before my wedding but never like the “after” photos. What is the treatment you mentioned you are using? Merci ma chérie.

[@theresaa4620]

Please share with us your lash treatment - I have same issues after 2 pregnancies! LOVE YOU since the start of your videos XX

[@EmelyTurish]

Yessss!! A black Smokey eye from Violette!!! Also, can someone translate the intro song??? I took French for 6 years but have no clue. I just understand Je 🤣

[@φανουλααρβανιτελλη]

Great and helpful video l think you look absolutly beautiful without make up !!!!!

[@BuiQuynhNhu]

I can watch this vid million times

[@mariek6671]

What treatments helped your lashes grow after pregnancy Violette?

[@cheeseface8739]

Aren’t you creating wrinkles with the finger rubbing and pulling.

[@mariaradu8022]

Hey guys, I tried Shazam and nothing came up, what’s the name of the song in this video?
