[@ryuisuki]

I don't think you should be embarrassed about the make up situation. It's very real and relatable. I don't remember the last time I cleaned my make up brushes or renewed my makeup. Although I should probably start doing that too 😂

[@sarahwright8338]

Have been absolutely bingeing your content. Not only is it entertaining and motivational, I come away feels better than when I started watching! Which for the internet in general is a very very rare thing. Thank you for making such wonderful uplifting motivational content!

[@makariespe]

hey thanks for this Sarah, I really appreciate it!:)

[@emthelibrarian]

this video is so relatable, you are not gross, I also don't change my pillowcases regularly (but will start doing that now!) you look absolutely radiant!

[@verynotunique]

did anyone notice that her skin was literally glowing more and more as the video went on? ❤ love the vid makari!! this will encourage me to change my pillow cases tonight 😅

[@RileyCoad]

That’s how you incorporate an ad read!! Usually these types of videos would be sponsored by one of the products and it can just be a little suspicious. Love the way you incorporated it!

[@ChehovsYe]

YAAAAASS THE QUEEN HAS UPLOADED

[@makariespe]

hahah this is lovely

[@silka7020]

I watched this video 2 days ago and had to come back to it because I thought about what you said repeatedly. You are not disgusting because of your old make up, the brushes or your pillow sheets. The unwashed brush might be dirty and bad for your skin but that does not make YOU disgusting. You have a wonderful, *glowing* (hehe) personality and show so many people on the internet amazing new things! You are lovely. And there's no way old make up, an unwashed brush or rarely changed bet sheets could change that fact about you. So repeat after me: I am not disgusting. Love you and your content! Have a lovely week!

[@Angela-wi7sq]

As someone who has slept on a bloodstained pillow case for the last 2 days since blowing my nose too hard while managing a heavy cold, I salute you! You know what the best beauty tip is? A radiant smile :) And you have it in spades! Thanks for another cheery video :) Also, having previously lived in Canada, it's good to hear of a service that helps people avoid being screwed over by cell phone companies! Yay Saily!

[@jackssmirk]

Thank you for your videos! As a former streamer, I understand how frightening it is to put yourself out there in a vulnerable way. But thank you so much for doing what you do, because it's so relatable. We get to see the whole process of whatever you are going through for the video, not just the good stuff. That's what reaches people. It reaches me, and I've really enjoyed watching you discover yourself and discover good habits; and it inspires me to do the same: if something isn't working for me in life, try something different!

[@Bemo09]

Another one is having the towek you dry your face with not be in the bathroom, but perhaps on a hook on the outside of the door. Towels kept in your bathroom picks up on the bacteria that spreads when you use the toilet.. same with bath towels. Keeping your toothbrush in the cupboard and maybe a pile of face towels that you wash after every use could also help. ❤

[@alexjarvis6589]

Makari, you crack me up 😂😂 you’re officially my new favorite KZbinr! Thank you for bringing me joy

[@makariespe]

Woooo!! I'm glad you enjoyed it 😆❤

[@bonk51]

I found your channel around a month ago? And I watch your videos almost DAILY as inspiration! You're amazing and i love your positivity, and i feel way more positive and smiley since i found your channel. Your smile is contagious!

[@Joceeeboo]

This is so relatable! I almost never had acne in my teens, then in early 20s the deep long lasting under skin ones came into my life!! Excited to see how this journey went for you

[@OisheeSJT]

You’re not gross, you’re amazing! You have always motivated me to be my best❤ We all have some tiny habits here and there. I’m just gonna say, you don’t need makeup! You are so beautiful even without it maashaAllah

[@MarteThu]

I rarely like skincare videoes, but this was so positive and real. Thanks for the budget friendly advice at the end. Sometimes I watch these kinds of videos and feel like I have to spend houndereds of dollars to get nice skin. That's not accessible for most people.

[@Thetinyfit]

You are NOT gross! Your skin looks absolutely radiant! I hear that FAB ultra repair cream of whatever is like magic. Also, you have the sweetest, most kind smile. Happy holidays!

[@rileyh121]

Well, consider me inspired to throw away my old (old enough that I do not want to disclose lol) makeup products!! I want to borrow Holly now haha!

[@a12i9]

Can confirm, you're glowing ✨ And you might have really good video shooting and editing skills, because I never realised you had skin issues. Or this old makeup was actually doing a great job😂 Anyway, congrats🎉 That's some big confidence boost. I hope it stays like that. ❤

[@naveena4879]

Thank you for this, this was so relatable and informative. I'm a little intimidated by all the other skincare videos and after watching this one, I actually want to do stuff😅 yaay

[@amandazoglio]

It took me more years than i like to admit to learn that it doesn't necessarily matter what you use (cheap, expensive) but that you use it consistently. It's nice to have your standards and then pop in a new thing every once in a while to try out cause it always does give you a little pop of freshness!

[@amandazoglio]

my current go to: Cerave face wash & sunscreen, Tula toner, Sunday Riley sleep oil (great combo for my dry skin grls)

[@jessiemadsen5095]

Omg she’s back! Found your channel and have gone thru your ENTIRE back catalogue after seeing a few vids and really enjoying your content!! Love the relatability of this vid and keen to see what’s next!! ❤️😍🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@jacobgomez_]

Hi makari!! As a dude trying to figure out the world of skincare while taking your approach into consideration, i have a few q's: 1. what is your acne histo like (as in, why did you choose now to do a skincare vid and what led up to this point)? 2. what is you skin type? I think some of the products you mentioned may be more or less effective for people with a certain skin type! 3. why did you choose the products you did? 4. what was the overall goal here (outside of clear skin, did you seek to remove scars, current acne, etc.)? I don't wear face products, e.g., makeup or even spf (i know, i probably should), but loved the approach! Thanks for the guidance! :)

[@jdp486]

Honestly, the least expensive thing I did for my skin was go to a dermatologist. They gave me free samples, tips about my diet, and a cheap, mild prescription for hormonal acne. Instead of buying a bunch of expensive products, I can now use a cheap Target cleanser.

[@RottenlyMoodyChild]

"Will I be super beautiful, hot and sexy tomorrow morning?" Mission accomplished 👍🏻 Ps. I will never get tired of your unending enthusiasm, positivity and facial expressions 😂

[@noelleromberger2582]

The not washing your brushes and pillow cases is SO relatable. 🤣

[@karlyknippen3124]

My old makeup is exactly what caused most of my acne in my 20s! I feel the pain, but knowing that that’s what cause it makes things easier ◡̈

[@lovebelieveachieve]

Look at you beautyyyyy guru!!!! PS don’t worry about the hate comments, send those bullies my way and I’ll flash my 25 year old MAC eye shadows and blushes at them ! 😂

[@emiliavaloskova571]

I am so glad I found your channel! You're always so positive, I love your energy! 💕💕

[@alveskrish]

the transition for the ad was BRILLIANT. you're BRILLIANT

[@gypsy3709]

Thank you ! I always laugh watching your videos and I enjoy it ! I also like the fact that you just say things naturally, and you are a normal person. Talking about me, I just don't wear any make-up at all now. Tried it a few months sometimes, but I find it itchy, and I don't like the fact that I have to pay attention to not touching my face or eyes when I wear make-up. Bonus of not wearing make up : no need to take it off at night ! And I don't believe any more anything the cosmetics industry says. For about 15 years now I think, I only wash my face with "savon de marseille" (a good one) and put on it only things I could it : some oil (changing types of oils, now it is avocado oil, that I find in an organic store, in the food section), and sometimes pure aloe vera. And no change in my face, looks the same (except for the wrinkles of course) !

[@FeralFeminine]

Goodness this was fun! Congrats on your little glow up and taking care of your skin! So proud of you!

[@kirthanakavassery]

You’re way too adorable, Makari. ♥️ I’m not into makeup at all but I still knew there was something for me in this. I laughed and realized my makeup needs to be cleaned too 😂 But remember you’re ADORABLE !! Not disgusting or gross in any way whatsoever. You’re perfect!! 🤩

[@pauleenfrances5684]

I’m watching queer eye right now because of you because I remembered your old video and now I am obsessed. I love the show, it brings me the same joyful and sentimental feeling when I watch your videos

[@withabbyjoy]

I love first aid beauty!!!!! The only moisturizer I’ve actually repurchased and I can use it from my head to my toes. It’s amazing

[@makariespe]

Sooooooo good!!

[@saiswa987]

Oh girl yet again this video describes my lifeeee LOL...never got into a consistent skincare routine and never bothered to switch my makeup products since I stopped wearing as much post-pandemic, but coming up on my late 20s I'm like, shoot I guess just hoping I'll magically stay young forever is somehow not an effective strategy! And tell me why I never even thought of doing my pillowcases with the rest of my weekly laundry?? I'll take this video as a call-out and try to do better 🤣

[@kwanladasrijomkwan]

You know, I don’t wear makeup often so i never use up my old makeup despite having a very small collection. I’m also washing my brush ( I have only one) only a couple times a year. My makeup are 4-5 years old AND i don’t like wearing them cuz I always get a pimple afterwards and THIS MIGHT BE WHY. I can’t say enough how much I appreciate your honesty sharing your makeup situation. This is not common knowledge. I’ve never known this. Someone’s gotta talk about it and I appreciate that you are. Hope this helps balance out any negative comments that might come to you. In my opinion, if they’re not in the same arena, putting out personal videos too, they don’t get to judge. I’m gonna change up my makeup situation now thanks to your advice :)

[@ryan19899]

Few things. 1. I love your red top in the starting of the video! 2. I get Ryan Trahan vibes when I watch your videos. Please piggyback his video ideas to attract his audience as well. I mean his videos already show up on 'related videos' when I watch your videos. That being said, it is totally fine if you don't because you are your own unique niche. At minimum I expect a collab with Ryan Trehan in future. (A man can dream right!) 3. I look forward to the day your channel blows up to 1M plus subs

[@tayet6875]

Thank you for this ✨️glowing✨️ PSA, Makari😂 About 3 months ago I bought soft cotton napkins that I change everyday 2 days instead of changing the pillow cases and it has helped a lot. (I still change the pillow cases and bedsheets of course) But since I sleep ON my face this has really made a difference!

[@littleleafy]

Such a good reminder to get back on the skincare train… I’ve been so lazy lately haha.

[@andy4327]

Best feel good channel on KZbin. When I was breaking out in my late twenties those Clarisonic brushes were a game changer. I see they’re not super widely available anymore though. Thanks for the videos, peace!

[@keithwarwick3620]

You are so not gross . Your personality is awesome . You should know how awesome you are and look Happy new year 🎉

[@wichtin]

So fast a new video? Makari, you're great haha

[@makariespe]

😆❤

[@goldfever4570]

"Will I be su"- yes! Kudos for the vulnerability. I've improved my bloke skincare regime in the past few months and feel much better for it 👍

[@honeixstuff]

Love your face expressions, they are so fun! 😂

[@leenabowman9716]

girl good for you for making all of those changes because I too am gross in every way you were lol I don't wash my sheets nearly enough and I havent bought new makeup in YEARS but perhaps I will make these changes too (:

[@Fabien.O]

Your enthusiasm is motivating!

[@psh11m]

Cute video! And so real. You have great people in your life. Holly’s expressions lol. Also, when it’s time to restock you can find cheaper alternatives that are just as effective.

[@inMuro]

Yay! I've noticed that my skin doesn't really vibe well with sugar. I once went off sugar for a few months and I looked SO healthy.

[@velanidiz]

Thank you for reminding me to check that (old and dirty make up things). I think I've being doing that wrong too, considering that I cannot remember the last time I washed my brushes. You should not be embarassed, I would guess we are a far larger group than the ones that do it right!

[@mythicalmim]

Thank you for the reminder about my makeup!! I don’t wear makeup a lot any more but I noticed every time I did my skin would breakout. I always thought it was because my skin is sensitive, but maybe it’s because all my makeup is old 😅🤯 lol you’re definitely not gross, we all have busy lives and some things just don’t cross our minds. You’re skin is glowing though!

[@alexhawkhead]

Same here! I’m off to wash my makeup brushes now lol

[@NoelSlevin]

I wasn't going to watch this one because this is really not my thing 😂, but it was actually good fun! You looked good before, but the difference is noticeable. I'm off to wash my pillow case... Must do that more often 😳

[@jojoisontherun]

Thank you for sharing

[@hanna1801]

All people I know have makeup that is old as hell. But this made me motivated to buy new ones!

[@ini1107]

I watched all your videos back. I just love your energy, your style of videos and the inspiration I get out of it. 🫶 and I love that we are the same age ☺️ you’ve got a new big fan from Germany ❤

[@LadyKatiie]

Honestly, who washes their make up brushes regularly?! If you’re gross, I’m gross too! 🤝🏼 Loved the video, as always! ✨

[@evetrickett4525]

you look so good! thanks for such a wholesome video 🥰 i’m off to throw away all my gross old makeup 🫣

[@nickgomez28]

It takes some courage to expose your flaws in a video for the world to see. I'm gonna praise your courage. I would have lied lied lied........😊

[@athenaparks8325]

Girl you're not alone... I just finally threw away a 5 year old mascara that I was still using because I think it finally gave me an eye infection.....

[@anna.draussen]

I just love your sense of humor! 😍😀

[@ninafischer3844]

To make you feel a little better - my make up is AT LEAST as old as yours was! On my wedding day I used a foundation that was 11 years old (and it looked great if I may say so!). I only just realised that might be gross. Whoopsie!

[@spenceh20]

@Makari Espe Please make more bikes videos there awsome your next one should be getting your dream bike!

[@kritikd.6248]

man I so want to be like you... my personality is the same... high energy all time... but that caused problem whenever I used to be in public places... thank you for showing that people like us need not hide ourself... can you give me tips on how to hide camera when visiting shops?

[@jennyjenkins877]

I've hung on to old makeup for frugal and eco-conscious reasons so don't feel bad... I bet there's a lot of grossness going on in most makeup stashes. The only makeup I own now is an eyebrow pencil because I went to the trouble of replacing an old eyeliner with e.l.f. (which is supposed to be a clean/quality brand) and my eyes had a terrible reaction to it.

[@Rosalynn78]

I had really old foundation I was still using. It would burn my face when I put it on but I would still use it. So don’t feel bad! I think it’s common for us non-makeup girlies.

[@niuniu_sun]

"dare I say glowing?" 😭💖

[@EllenMommaPunkin]

Did I pause and go get a glass of water at the hydration comment? Yes. Yes I did. Did I also throw away my old makeup? Also yes.

[@Rebecca-yo3id]

You ARE glowing!

[@mrsgbookb]

Loved this. Soooooo relatable. It is so hard to be a woman 😅

[@WhaChuUpTo]

If you are (were) a digusting person, then I am right there with you. My brushes have not seen soap or water for so long they've grown probably a whole Whoville colony in there.

[@LynnDot]

I know it’s so hard not to pick - I used to scar so much as a young adult because I’d mess with my spots when I was stressed out. I’m not sure if this will help you, but I found painting my nails made me “notice” them more, so I’d catch myself touching my face more often.

[@PinkJG619]

I have so many products but I’m unsure of how to use them lol. I love your videos though you’re so funny and charismatic! You also remind me a little bit of Julia styles.

[@simsoundschannel]

That week 3 shot 🎥 film school did you good girl 😂❤ (I will change my pillowcases more too now! I use silk, apparently there’s a lot of skin benefits but I too am not a dermatologist)

[@hellohellohello229]

you can also use facial tissues instead of a towel to wipe your face, made a huge difference for me :)

[@wanderingoff13]

Honestly it's so refreshing to have some Disgusting Person representation, I am an absolute dirtbag in actuality but not in aesthetic, and it's something I'm genuinely super self-conscious about because it's something people genuinely don't know/expect about me and when/if they find out it's like, a Thing. And I also have more pimples than I know I would if I kept my face cleaner and washed my pillowcases more and stuff so. Nothing but respect for starting where you started and for saying at the end that the skincare stuff is fun and effective but probably not necessary.

[@anasta-n2j]

Good genes is my all time holy grail skincare product. My skin reacts to it SO well. I don't get normal pimples, I usually get like little bumps/weird texture and good genes totally gets rid of them. I use it every other day and am on my 4th bottle. I just wish it wasn't SO expensive

[@loaf.doodles]

This video was so relatable to me, and, honestly, you aren't that gross. I washed my brushes for the first time since middle school the other day, and I'm 21... 😬I ALWAYS pick at my breakouts; they're so bad. This gave me some inspo to actually try changing my skincare.😌

[@misia2483]

As a fellow gross person I appreciate your transparency 😬

[@jemmonfoe]

I don't find you disgusting for the old make-up situation, you are normal!

[@jessicab6305]

As your first step in your nighttime routine recommend ditching micellar water. It doesn't do a good job of removing make up. Highly recommend "clean it zero" by Banil. It's a cleansing balm that breaks down makeup and sunscreen. Rinse and then use your normal foaming cleanser after. With how little acne you truly have I think this and light retinol or salicylic acid every other night will probably stop all your problems.

[@gypsy3709]

You're not gross, you are just a normal person, and that's what I like about you and your videos : everybody does the same ! I don't change my bed sheets (hence the pillow cases) every week ! Please, keep being normal 🙂 !!!!!!!!!

[@QuietlyCraftingLife]

Ok, thanks for reminding me to clean my make brushes 😅. It's been half an year. On my way!

[@silvijokosta]

i just came here to watch you smile 🥰😍💖

[@eminesenmisin3547]

This is my brush and i wash it once a year.LALALALA😂😂😂 You are hilarious

[@B_watches_tings]

you n are precious dude love the video

[@BlueMoon-mj5sr]

I LOVE THIS VIDEO!!

[@akirebara]

tretinoin changed my life, i wish i got it sooner. my skin in my late 30s is sooo much bettrer than when i was in my 20s. and im even just at 0.025%!!!! not upping it anytime soon since my skin is really happy about my current, super simple, super minimalist skincare routine

[@Jojo-k8b]

My makeup would be in the same state as yours if i didn't go through it so fast so no worries! 😂 I do probably keep it for longer than i should still/don't wash my brushes enough.

[@ennemuk]

I can really recommend Michelle's Lab Muffin Beauty science videos! She has really in depth videos and what works and doesnt and why 😊

[@jennyyyyjohnson]

My eyeliner pencil used to be my moms and I think it’s from the ‘90’s😂😂 something to be proud of? No. But just another comment letting you know you’re not at all alone in the old-makeup-club!💕

[@KasiaZalucka]

OMG SAME! My mom had the best eyeliner, and I still have it 😂

[@jennyyyyjohnson]

@ Lol, love it! If it ain’t broke-don’t fix it! Right? Haha😂

[@liss.11]

You're not gross...you are normal! Also, I found SuperGoop made my skin breakout. Love Paula's Choice sunscreen.

[@ingafalkenstein4221]

Ah... I mostly online do my brows. Sometimes I get a pimple in my brow... I'll wash my brush now.

[@miyounova]

But also, in terms of cost, you bought some of the most expensive popular skin care brands (paula's choice and riley whatever good genes thing). When you run out, you could try the ordinary, a lot cheaper.

[@GMatsetes]

😮I never thought the morning routine of a girl could be so traumatic, thanks for making me know how much care is necessary for all this!

[@jordanlind1944]

Omg you should listen to the Retinoid episode of “This Podcast Will Kill You”. It is FASCINATING and so informative of all the things we should and shouldn’t be putting on our skin! The purging is real thoughhhh. Girl in her 30s here who still gets acne, so you’re not alone :)

[@motivatedmindful1976]

I am old enough to be your mother and Cereve cleanser causes me to break out. My daughter loves it, but I was getting zits

[@cristinariveratorres6077]

This was my reminder to throw away my old makeup and wash my brushes!

[@somefishhere]

Makeup brushes and old makeup haha. Glad I don’t use those! Makes skincare a lot more simple. great video!

[@gdkarma]

Just going to go wash my makeup brushes now before throwing them away and buying new ones 😂 I don’t wash them ever soooooo yeah. You are not alone. You are not gross. Life gets lifey and adulting is hard.

[@lkkubono]

Dear heavens so much natural cute to begin with. BTW you're not gross, you were not informed. Now you are! I've been there. I'll be there again too : 0
