I love Sam, she is best OG make up artist. I love that she is focusing on us older ladies, her make up is so wearable & I just love her realness. She offers a wealth of information and I'm a complete fan girl.

[@madlibpoet]

Up at 5am in Michigan and so happy I landed here! Great way to start my day for this 49 year old!!!

[@Shellarella74]

Same here, Hi 👋🏼 from Michigan!!!

[@janfromseattle]

A little after 3:30 am in Seattle. Hi and good morning! 👋

[@Nikachu0906]

I’m from MI too! But watching this as I’m getting ready for bed, lol.

[@biancaredd2902]

Perfect timing for some upcoming work travel! And now when I get ready for work I'm going to hear "London Professional Lady" in Sam's voice and it's going to make me giggle every time!

[@samchapmanmakeup]

😂

[@annwilliams8483]

Perfect look for us “over 40” kids! Thank you!

[@eileen5428]

I believe the actual saying is brows should be sisters, not twins, but I understand what you mean. Our faces are not symmetrical to begin with and, as we age, the asymmetry becomes more noticeable. It’s great to get tips that address the issue of embracing and working with asymmetry without looking fake/contrieved.

[@Si0412]

I appreciate your focus on 40 plus, as I am 41. I am following you since the ‚Sophia Loren‘ video. It has always been a pleasure and inspiration. You get the best out of every decade. We will be rocking with you even in our 90s 😊🍀🙏🏻🎉💋

[@anuszkap24]

Sam, I have realised tonight that I have been watching you / Pixiwoo for 15 years now, the thought of it is crazy 😊 you are as beautiful as ever and I still love the videos ❤

[@theprousteffect9717]

I've been watching you and Nic since 2009, but I'll never forget our Canadian friend Samantha Ravndahl mentioning both of you in a video. She said you ladies did the most amazing makeup tutorials, always looked so elegant, and like you had the "right" amount of makeup on (I think she's met you at a few events). She was so right, and that's something that has always distinguished you ladies. Nothing wrong at all with being or looking heavily made up, but it's just not everyone's preference.

[@samchapmanmakeup]

Oh that’s so lovely of Sam. Yes, I’ve met her many times at events over the years. She’s an absolute sweetheart x

[@kmathur609]

Come home from a hectic chaotic day at work and watching her videos…brings back life into the body…..!❤❤

[@dianav5309]

So true! It's so beautiful and well explained. So classy

[@chantalconard836]

Oh my gosh, yes, now that I'm well into my 40s my foundation gets very dry. Thank you for this video!❤️

[@franceskelly534]

I was doing my makeup this morning whilst watching this video. Moments before you applied the Rare Beauty eyeshadow stick, I’d started applying my Rare Beauty eyeshadow stick. When you said the shade name, I looked at mine & nearly fell off my chair when it was the same shade. You’ve clearly had an influence on me, over the years.

[@CocoJ]

At 48, I have learned so much from you over the years! I so appreciate this video. I’m at a point in my life where I still absolutely LOVE makeup, but less is so much more for me. And I have definitely changed the way I apply it. I’ve been going for a more subtle look for a few years now. Thank you for still sharing your phenomenal techniques and knowledge.❤

[@PaolaRL]

you're such an artist and a fantastic teacher at the same time!

[@samchapmanmakeup]

Thank you x

[@Punksimmons]

Chicago elegant professional lady! 🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@samchapmanmakeup]

You know it!

[@Alfakkin]

This is the epitome of classy and naturally enhanced beauty makeup. I had no doubt it was a brilliant tutorial, even before starting the video. ❤

[@samchapmanmakeup]

Thank you so much!!

[@shannaanderson486]

love this! from a 49 year old with no brows ( because I was stupid and wanted to look like Kate Moss) Your brow application has saved me! thanks for showing me how!

[@samchapmanmakeup]

Oh me too, Shanna. What stupid idiotic boobs we were!

[@anab.6948]

This is the type of makeup I would wear to do my groceries 🙂. Always full face, especially for work when everything has to stay in place. Thank you for this lovely look

[@Rue994]

That Nars night brightener is gorgeous. What a perfect product for women older than 20 some😂 and I love how you brushed all the shadows together. Gorgeous!

[@PetraLilith675]

I’m looking at that and the Elf luminous bronzer in the Vacay Mood she used. The luminous sheen without being shimmery is gorgeous on the skin, both under the eyes and as a sunkissed look while seeing the sheen just when the light hits it. Elf is really duping these high end brands like they said, turning their whole brand into prestigious products while still being really fairly/affordably priced. These high end n luxury brands better watch out. When these low end drugstore brands are able to make the same if not better products for a fraction of the price, it shows what a rip off these high end brands are.

[@GMW.artist]

I'm going to try my own version: Understated, Elegant, Truro, Professional Lady... (shout out to the small cities!!) 😎✌🏼💜

[@alyssajones2549]

I'm 30 and i love watching your videos.

[@susanrombak7959]

lol, burned twigs. That is a real reference to over mascara’d lashes. Sam, your beauty is captivating. A beautiful look for a lady 🥰 Regards from Florida 🌴

[@wm5113]

Hello Sam, thank you for sharing this video with us, fantastic!! 59 in March so this is so good for us older glam ladies, thank you!! Regards M

[@caseyhill636]

Giving me Princess Catherine of Wales makeup - loves it ❤

[@aliciaf1055]

I had no idea Canmake was Shiseido - I've got one of their SPFs and it's really good.

[@MsBubble76]

Here we are! I’ve been with you through Pixiwoo and About Face? I can’t remember exactly the name……..🤯 Raising kids. Career changes. Up times and down times. Now I’m navigating the changing terrain of my ageing face. And you’re there to guide me through. Thank fuck because I’m not coping so well with it all!!!

[@erikagauffin7887]

This is lovely 🤩 Could you please do one for us with no eyelid space at all 😂 Very hooded eyes. For me it feels pointless to use eyeshadow because it doesn’t show any way. 🥴

[@idalarsson4729]

Your videos are the best! 💕

[@janfranklin2114]

My favorite look 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@anniewhitmore7627]

I have a Canmake cream blush which is lovely and also sometimes use the SPF 50 but have to order online. Would you share the name of the Japanese shop in London? Might be worth a trip sometime and would love to know. Always enjoy your content Sam! Make up on an over 50 face would be amazing too if you ever have thew time 😊❤

[@samchapmanmakeup]

Hope you have a wonderful day. X

[@mariekelly2445]

Absolutely Elegant! Its Beautiful!

[@MilaAzukiSonoIo]

Classy and elegant as expected 😊

[@Zeonacc]

Your eyebrow commentary was hilarious! I agree with you 💯 ❤

[@_missreverie_]

you look stunning sam. i can watch you apply makeup for days. such a big inspo! sorry to hear about the running around. hope to see you soon in another vid!

[@thefoxyscentury]

Always glad to see you, Sam.

[@Punksimmons]

Love your content so much! You’re so real and your looks are so understated but stunning. The content we need more of! ❤

[@helenluvs2laugh]

I love the way that you do your eyeshadow and often think of you while I'm doing my own. I've got to get that brush. I didn't even think about using a brush that big and I have a lot of real estate between the crease and my brows. thank you so much as always!

[@deetee4325]

A lovely simple and classy look❤❤❤xx

[@NeeCJae]

Loving this look!! 🥰

[@aprilrain2011]

I really enjoyed this video. You are aways flawless. I absolutely love your hair!

[@areebakay]

Another beautiful everyday look ☺️ love these videos Sam!! Please keep them coming!! Your tips always help ❤️

[@dianav5309]

It is so so so so BEAUTIFUL! I must rewatch and try it on me. Absolutely classy and warm, which is rare in a business lady type make up. It looks luke a Burberry perfume: the Burberry Blush. ❤ thank you ! Thank you ❤ Hi from Versailles!

[@katmoore1909]

Beautiful look, fresh, ageless and thoughtful. As always Sam has also the Gift of communicating incredibly well every step ❤🌟 👍 Thanks so much once again.

[@taniaelgaard]

[@miracas1206]

Oh God I love this lipstick on you🥰🥰

[@angiesizzlepants]

New to your content, immediate fan! Moving toward more age appropriate makeup styles. Look forward to exploring your videos!

[@user-rq5gi1dx6w]

Beautiful lipstick and overall makeup! Great look. From this 43 year old, thank you!

[@kamillaszoppa4561]

Hi Sam, I watched your videos years ago and here I am again. Just wanted to say that you age in a beautiful way and it’s nice to see you still rocking KZbin. Best wishes x

[@UESGrl21]

I’m so happy you’re back. I learned to do mu well w/you back in the Aughts. I remember loving nothing better than coming home after work and relaxing to a Pixiwoo video. I am as stunned by your beauty and talent now as I was then. Thank you for not fading into obscurity just because you hit middle age. We possess our own, confident beauty. 😉

[@user-br8rp3vy6i]

Yes, we watch you here in Sydney Sam ❤

[@acheryl3377]

Loved it! Learn so much about making up more mature face x

[@samchapmanmakeup]

Glad you liked it!!

[@mollymonroe6768]

Wow, you are so good with make up I could watch you all day!!!!! Naturally Beautiful❤

[@nicolaoffert4006]

I agree with other comments that your communication with your audience is brilliant. Helpful and informative, you always keep it real and I love that. You look fab btw 💕

[@samchapmanmakeup]

I appreciate that! Thank you x

[@antonioromeromakeup]

Which brush are you using for your foundation? I love it!

[@dobbyimmaculate]

Why am I cracking myself up at the cities part??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Sam u r so random yet so hilarious!! I Luv u 💋

[@BethaneyLilly]

You always manage to look so elegant and refined ❤ Yes, this is base perfection for 40/dry skin! My ideal base products are reminiscent of Mac F&B ….just sheer/light perfecting that wears well and doesn’t look makeup(y) or drier as the day goes on.

[@susank683]

I love watching you and learning You are very beautiful!

[@iViaggiatoriDelGatto]

❤we love understated make up and I live in a little town close to France but it still Italy!!❤️

[@jensngerj]

Just gorgeous.

[@Lw77596]

Love this look ❤ Please do an 80s glam punk look Sam 🙏 I've an 80s party to go to next month and need some inspiration 😊x

[@GMW.artist]

Sam. Please can you do a video showing your favourite setting powders for us 45+ ? 😎✌🏼💜💜💜

[@patricebennett1100]

You crack me up Sam. 😂. Looks great.

[@celineokeeffe6733]

Hey Sam u can get non sting spf. La Roche Posay do one and also Ambre Solaire range for the face. I had same issue xx

[@Khaleesi_Of_Kittens]

Sam, have you tried Bodyography Glitter Pigments?? They're GORGEOUS.

[@funkychild2294]

GIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRRLLLLLLLL you looking so beautiful! You always were 😍 girl crushing hard

[@m.f.p.infinity545]

Thank you.❤

[@matildaragnarsson7655]

Love your videos! ❤ I wonder, where is the eyelash curler from?

[@saratwrenful]

You remain my favorite. Gorgeous. Hilarious.

[@samchapmanmakeup]

Wow, thank you!

[@taniapannellini5209]

You got such perfect skin....if I was to use only the CT Hollywood filter as a base i would see my pores from space 😂

[@MoonLightt57]

You look like angelina jolie!❤

[@MissEMc2]

I have basically no brows… just a couple very short thin ones here & there… after more then 10 years of chemo so I always appreciate any brow tips, tricks!! It’s so easy for my brows to look like too much & I think that’s because I’m used to not having brows any more. I’m like Sam I like a very light base… I don’t want it to look like makeup but the brows can so easily through the whole thing off!! Thank goodness for brow pens!!!! Thanks for all the help you’ve given us over the years Sam!!!! Question: Do anyone have a preference in the eye brighteners? Nars vs Beauty Pie? Any thoughts would be really helpful!!!!

[@katm5903]

Amen! Less is more as I age too!

[@patibarrera2874]

I just found your page!!! I find applying an eye primer or concealer on my lids give me a truer eyeshadow color, also I like to dry my waterline with a q-tip before add pencil to my waterline. It goes on better and stays on longer.

[@samchapmanmakeup]

Yay! Thank you!

[@Rue994]

I can’t understand why people go bonkers for those putty bronzers. The putty primer was not great either imo, but that Vacay color is absolutely stunning on the skin. I’ve never seen that before- where it gives you a natural sun kissed look on the cheeks and bridge of nose but with the most beautiful sheen to the skin just as the light hits it in the right place. What a unique product. I must get that now.😂

[@denisemc607]

Wow gorgeous nails and eyes. ❤ Mine are also grey blue and fair med - I love your tips x is CT foundation worth it and light serum coverage?

[@MariaMartinsson]

Looks great! 😍 What do you think about bare Minerals original foundation? It's the only one I've loved simce 2011 and it looks flawless on my dry skin 🥰 I'm 43 now.

[@tzoe875]

What a lovely sophisticated look! I purchased the Korean lash curler and I think I need a tutorial because I found it to be difficult to use. I know it should be self-explanatory but somehow it wasn’t for me.

[@user-rf2gx9hu6w]

Great video, random but what is the colour of your nail polish/gel please?

[@eveichim606]

Where is your coat from? It's beautiful :)

[@tennilledebysingh5819]

Makeup looks amazing! I also do a natural look for work, but I skip the SPF as I work indoors. There is no need, and if you do find yourself going outside at times for work, SPF inactivates after about 2 hours. So it's really quite pointless unless you're exposed and can reapply throughout the day.

[@tinashort9098]

The real estate between my lid and brow is quite sad😂. I do love that big brush though!!! I’m 58 and have ZERO lid space now! Well, maybe not zero but they’re definitely more hooded than they used to be and the sad thing is that with amount of money I’ve wasted on bullshit eye creams and wrinkle creams, I could have a face full of Botox!!!😂

[@Khaleesi_Of_Kittens]

What brand is that brow pen?? I love it.

[@MissLorenaWood]

I’m thinking model off duty❤

[@BeeKay4444]

Haha. I am with you about that eyebrow saying! Like how ridiculous truly. I’m lucky if my brows are both from the same planet. 😂😂😂😂

[@izaj]

A great look! I've heard I shouldn't curl the eyelashes after using mascara. Was it a bad piece of advice or maybe it depends on mascara?

[@stephmmcbride9197]

Perfect for 44 year old x

[@lauratice8490]

Love this look,Sam! My eyes are sensitive as well i like the Tower 28 spf no stinging at all👍

[@mcht9565]

Hello from Asian city!

Gosh you're beautiful

We actually hear you better without the mic on, voice is clearer. Gorgeus work !

[@Khaleesi_Of_Kittens]

Hi Sam! Laroche Posay Triple Moisturizing Cream is an EXCELLENT moisturizer for dry skin (face especially!)

[@kali369]

LOVE! 🤩 Curious if by any chance you’ve ever tried La Roche-Posay Hyalu B5 Aquagel SPF30? Katie Jane Hughes recommends it. Thanks! ❤️🙏
