MAC Training Secrets Revealed | EYELINER Techniques to Alter the Eye Shape

[@ambrelicious04]

Can you do a video on water based vs silicone based primers, foundations, which ones are best for large pores

[@lindataylor4393]

So very happy you are doing these series Lisa! I could use all the help I can get! I’ll be watching all of them! I’m from the 55 plus crowd, and just started doing makeup around a year ago.. and tips for our age group would be greatly appreciated! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

[@lisajmakeup]

Thank you so much Linda! So happy it was helpful!

[@vashtiramsaroop5410]

Lisa, could you also do a tutorial on how to choose blush color. Additionally, I find choosing lipstick from the drugstore to be a big challenge, because there aren't testers to swipe on the hand (unless something is awful, I feel too guilty returning an item). Supposedly there are some nice lip products at the drugstore, any recommendations on how to choose color without testing? I'd love to hear what are you 12 favorite makeup products. Lastly, your skin is STUNNING, I'd love to hear your skin care routine, and what products you use.

[@bonniepierce5164]

OUTSTANDING. You are a born teacher and make it so easy to understand. Can;t wait for more Training Secrets. I love that you recommend products also. That is a huge help because I can buy the right product immediately instead of wandering around and buying products that don't work (and wasting money). Thank you.

[@lisajmakeup]

Awww thank you Bonnie! Xoxo

[@b.walker5955]

I claim the front seat of your class room! Lisa, You are such a natural at teaching technique. We all recognize the opportunity to learn from a master ~ I think you are on to something YUGE!! Prepare for the play button to arrive much faster than you expected! : ) XO

[@lisajmakeup]

Aww, this comment made my day! Thank you so much!

[@mishmash3968]

B. Walker wish she would shove more info in each video. Alot of this people already know, so it would be helpful if it was not just for beginners.

[@sabrinalevasseur2991]

I'm definitely in front row too!!!

[@chrissyjoy9810]

Yay!! I’m so happy you are making this a series!!! Consider me enrolled ✋🏻 😂😂. Thank you for your time in doing this. Much appreciated!

[@lisajmakeup]

:) Thanks Chrissy! xoxo

[@ernestangel2809]

I dont mean to be offtopic but does any of you know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account..? I stupidly forgot the login password. I appreciate any help you can give me.

[@kimberlygiagnacovo8984]

I'm so happy you're doing this series! Blush placement, tight lining, and anything that helps not to accentuate texture on the face would be videos that I'd love to see. Thank you!

[@lisajmakeup]

Great! Thank you Kimberly!

[@jeannestarks832]

I don't think there are ever too many videos on disguising a hooded eyelid...on creating a new crease. I think that would be a wonderful video idea. I love this series, Lisa. Everyone can learn something, to help make their technique(s) more suitable and flattering for their unique set of circumstances. We all want to look our best, and this info is so helpful. Thank you, Lisa!

[@lisajmakeup]

Thank you Jeanne! xoxo Hooded eye is definitely on the list :)

[@2cmrinhfx]

Excellent info- so nice that you are teaching techniques!! So many youtubers just push products when it really is technique and then the right product that creates a great look. Please keep teaching!

[@lisajmakeup]

So glad to hear it! Thanks Caroline! :)

[@delgadoyv]

Thank you. I am grateful you are making MAC Training Secrets a series. Also, I appreciate your effort and time in these quality videos and for sharing your wealth of knowledge.

[@lisajmakeup]

Thank you so much Yvonne!

[@YT247Now]

Excellent video! I am so thrilled that you’re making this a series! I will be watching every video that you post! I’d love a video on proper eyeshadow blending. Make up artists’ shadow always looks air brushed and mine looks heavy handed.

[@lisajmakeup]

So glad to hear! Thank you Beth!

[@aps2985]

Not following the natural lash line and filling in the space was a very helpful tip for lash lines going down .. overall a very informative and detailed video...waiting for your brushes video Can you do a detailed eye tips for hooded eyes?

[@lisajmakeup]

Thank you! Yes, lots of requests for that one. :)

[@giaagha4640]

Thanks Lisa! I really enjoy how you’ve gone to the basics with so much detail. Like after watching your video I’m like “I can do this! No drama mama!”

[@lisajmakeup]

Lol! Thank you Gia! :)

[@kikixoxo2127]

Loving the tutorials on one subject! Keep them coming!!!!

[@lisajmakeup]

Thanks Kiki! xoxo

[@elizabeths1282]

Eyeshadow for very hooded droopy mature eyes, please.

[@lisajmakeup]

Thank you Elizabeth!

[@susanebailey]

So happy you’re making this a series! I would like to see a video on how to match blush and lips to compliment your eye looks.

[@lisajmakeup]

Thanks Susan!

[@mandyincolo]

Thrilled you are doing these! Can't wait for the next one!

[@lisajmakeup]

Thank you Mandy! :)

[@kshook82]

You are a wonderful teacher. The liner information on how you continue your liner was great! Thank you.

[@lisajmakeup]

Aww thanks Kristina!

[@acmaeve8269]

The tip to go from the top of the eye and out and then connect the lines from the corner of your eye and up is amazing! You always see everyone following their eye with the liner all the way to the outter corner of the eye, then "flicking" the liner up. And then connecting to the highest point of the eye at the middle. I love the way you said to do it instead! Your way seems so much easier!! Thanks for that tip!! :-)

[@sairalee8916]

Really enjoyed this video, Lisa! It was so helpful learning about the different styles of eyeliner and how you can apply eyeliner to different eyeshapes. I didn't know about the technique for making your eyes look rounder. Looking forward to trying out some of your tips!

[@lisajmakeup]

Thank you so much Saira!

[@knitterchic]

Love these videos Lisa and looking forward to the information on makeup brushes. I have a vast selection of brushes but find that I only use a few of them. Would also like your opinion on purchasing sets of brushes that may be less expensive in the long run as opposed to purchasing single brushes that are sometimes more expensive. Brushes can definitely be a major investment to a makeup collection.

[@lisajmakeup]

They really can be! That is such a great video suggestion, thank you so much!

[@yelortiz]

I’m really enjoying this series. Thank you Lisa!

[@lisajmakeup]

Thanks Yel :)

[@78summerbreeze]

Lisa, thank you for the instruction on eyeliners. I appreciate you sharing the knowledge you received from your years at MAC. I would like to see tutorial on eye brows. What is your recommendation on the best eye brow product? How to achieve a pretty natural looking brow? What is the capatible color for a specific hair color like a dark brunette? I enjoy your series very much. Looking forward to the next one.

[@jackiewatsonfitness3695]

Another great video, Lisa! I tend to be "stuck in a rut" and use the same things over and over. I had forgotten how much I liked my eyeliner that was in the pot! I need to get some, again, and use it! Thank you!

[@lisajmakeup]

Great! Thank you Jackie!

[@vashtiramsaroop5410]

This is the 2nd video of yours that I've seen, and you blow me away! Your videos are accessible due to your calm presence, they way you break a process down step-by-step, and you anticipate questions that most viewers would ask. I look forward to watching more of your work. I'm excited for your brush video! Here's a question, when buying brushes online, what should we look out for? For ex: if I want to get a brush for loose powder, with several to choose from even just from one site, beyond the consideration of price, how do you know which to choose? I've heard Morphie, Sigma, and Real Techniques have good brushes, do you have any favorite stores or brands other then MAC? :-) Any advice you have to offer, would be a blessing! I'm grateful for the time, energy, and enthusiasm that you share with us. Thank you!! :-)

[@hollid175]

I'm so glad I found your channel. I've been binge watching your videos. Please let me know if you have a basic eyeshadow tutorial so I can share with a friend. Thx

[@amandaevelyn8370]

[@christinemack8929]

Love your teachings. I would love to learn how to shape a brow for your face shape. I didn't realize I could use a chubby brush for gel liner, will try it today. Have a great week and than you!

[@lisajmakeup]

Thanks Christine! Brows is a great topic!

[@louisesharpy]

I love when you share these!! I actually LOVE this whole series. It’s awesome. And different. Love you too!! Always. I get so excited to wait for the next topic

[@lisajmakeup]

[@joeykingman5103]

So glad you decided to do this series! Looking forward to seeing more!

[@crystalb650]

I truely love videos like these.Thank you for sharing lisa j.Looking foward to watching more videos like these.Much love!😊😘

[@Eden_Rivers]

Choosing lip color that compliments the rest of the look. Blush placement for sure too. Fun series!!

[@lisajmakeup]

Thank you so much Eden!

[@kimforeman5409]

Thank you for this fantastic series! I would love to hear about hooded eye makeup (mature eyes) and brows! I keep trying recommendations for hooded eyes from different videos, but it turns out kind of raccoon-ish and not natural. Your help would be appreciated!

[@lisajmakeup]

Good to know! Thank you Kim. There has been a lot of requests, so maybe something more in-depth.

[@Anoushig21-j6x]

Please keep them coming. You’re a good teacher

[@lisajmakeup]

Awww thanks Tamara!

[@hummingbirdlvr5189]

Hi Lisa! So glad you made this a series! What are your thoughts on very heavy hooded small almond eyes? Very limited and sometimes non-viewable eyelids? My goal is to make my eyes look bigger and not so downturned. Thank you so much! Looking forward to brushes! ♥

[@njmomof1128]

Hi Lisa, great video as usual. Love your makeup in this video. Tutorial? If not, what is your lip color? Looking forward to more of this series. Blush placement, maybe?

[@1334cass]

I was Soooo happy to see this first thing this morning! Thank you for making this a series. I am over the moon excited!!! Thank you!!

[@lisajmakeup]

Aww, thank you!!

[@carol_makeup_nails8826]

I'm so happy you are making this into a series. I hope there will be a section on hooded eyes.

[@lisajmakeup]

Yes! Thank you Carol!

[@alimalongchar3234]

hi, thanks a lot. I am from the North Eastern Part of India with Mongolian features.. we dont get the Kat Von D Eyeliner here. I felt the Loreal Paris Flash Cat Eyeliner-Black did the trick for me and it is long lasting, has the kind of felt tip that you recommended so that I always manage to draw the lines in whateve thickness I'd love to have....I learn a lot from your channel.. Thank you so much!!!

[@sarahnicholson1543]

Great info!!! And I see lots of hooded eye ladies too!!! 🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️

[@Mushy713]

I absolutely LOVE this series!!! This video was so helpful and informative!! I love the next video idea all about brushes! I get so confused when looking at brushes online. And I have no idea the differences between all of the different blending brushes, for example - tapered vs not tapered, natural hair vs synthetic, etc. It can be so overwhelming to know what to get and they don’t really explain it well in the online shops. But brushes make such a difference to makeup application!!! I would also love to learn about cut creases. How to do them. The different types. And which ones suit which eye shape. Thank you so much for this amazing content, Lisa!!! 😘💖💕

[@kathleenswenning9915]

That was very informative, thank you so much! I think makeup is an art too, and you are an amazing artist, I want to also be able to do amazing, artistic, flawless makeup on myself and maybe others if the occasion arises! These tips and techniques are wonderful!! Thank you very much!!

[@lisajmakeup]

Yay! Thank you so much Kathleen!

[@lindapassos]

Loving that you decided to make it a series

[@lisajmakeup]

Thank you Linda!

[@mitzicochran8455]

Yay! You are making a series!!! I always get excited when you post a new video!!

[@lisajmakeup]

Aww, thank you!

[@Ces2205]

The most important things about make up I learned them from a Mac trainer a long time ago, here in Madrid. I bought an amazing foundation brush that I still use. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us! 😊

[@lisajmakeup]

So glad to hear! Thank you so much!

[@reneklein6049]

Fabulous tutorial. So informative. I'd like secrets on the correct way to apply blush for a more mature woman. Thanks Lisa❣😘

[@MrJborn2008]

Yes - brushes - high end and affordable. I prefer individual to sets because I have quite a few but some I would like to upgrade and some I just use because I want to get my money's worth. I don't care for brushes on both ends - where do I put them?? Love this series !

[@belrubi]

Loving the series so far!💕 I just started doing my make up again after neglecting myself for 10 yrs (marriage, kids, family, etc). So much has changed in the make up world I feel but you explain everything so nicely and detailed that I feel confident I’ll find the best way to enhance my natural beauty! Thank you! ❤️

[@lisajmakeup]

Awwww I am so happy to hear that! Thank you so much! Xoxo

[@Vivienvixen]

Yes...BRUSHES!!! I’m so interested in all the hype around natural hair brushes vs synthetic ones. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts. TIA😊

[@lisajmakeup]

Thank you so much Virlene!

[@leannejacob4397]

Amazing information once again. Really love your teaching style! With the brush lesson I would prefer it to be broken into separate chunks like face or base then eye's in another session. Lately I've seen a few brush tutorials and by the end I've feel like I've forgotten about the face brushes in the beginning plus it's information overload as it might be 20-30 brushes mentioned. Thanks for taking the time to much such great content 💖

[@lisajmakeup]

Thank you Leanne! Good feedback for sure.. I'll make sure its not too much or overwhelming :)

[@Beautybybeth]

Your eyes are beautiful. I am so excited you are doing this series

Thanks Beth!

Thank you Pat! xoxo

[@sandigomez6773]

Thank you for sharing your expertise! I love makeup and I love doing makeup on myself and others when I’m asked. I’ve never thought winged liner looked right on me, but I’ve tried the baby wing a few times. It’s still a challenge. I love the PF Eye Booster Liner Pen. I have it in both black and brown. Love the video! Keep them coming!

[@julieo4580]

Anything about large pores, cheeks stuff and why we should do brows. I’m so confused on all of these lol. I am going to try the eye tips you gave in both videos. I have very large round protruding eyes and hate them so maybe a baby wing is going to help. Thank you so much!! Loving this series!!

[@lisajmakeup]

Thank you so much Julie and thank you for the video suggestions!

[@lisavalentiminichilli9367]

I can’t tell you how much I am loving these videos Lisa!! 💓 As a self taught makeup lover...I feel like I’ve gotten pretty skilled at some aspects of makeup application, but there’s still so much I don’t know. Your teaching style is perfect and I can’t wait to check out your next video 😍 PS. I would love love love if you did a mini tutorial maybe on IG doing your baby wing! I am absolutely terrible at doing it on myself 😭

[@lisajmakeup]

I am so happy to hear that! Thank you so much Lisa! :)

[@naomilasby7744]

I love shadow over a pencil!...I'm a nurse and my go to simple daily eye look is just a burgundy pencil with with a burgundy shadow over, the love the smoky diffuse look and super easy. I used to use the inglot burgundy cream liner but switched over to this.

[@lizmiller7681]

This will be my favorite of ALL series, across KZbin. So very needed, & so very helpful, & you’re a good teacher. Of course, one of my main requests would be anything targeting issues of those of us “of the certain age” group, especially eye makeup. Also, foundations, undereye coverage/fine lines, powders, blush, & highlighter. Every year I find these to have become a bit more difficult to get just right. Example: Too matte really accentuates lines (& pores), but some setting powder seems necessary. And, I have very little real estate safe to highlight, but I need a bit of highlight, or I really look bleak. Oh, the woes of aging, lol. Again, Thank you so very much for this series! I loved this video, & look forward to the brush video! 💖✨💖✨🤠

[@lisajmakeup]

Thank you Liz! i am so so happy this is helpful to so many. These are my favorite videos to share.

[@brigittegagnon8092]

Thank you Lisa for this series. I discovered them when I was searching for information on my M.A.C. brushes. Could you please tell me what colour is the brown pencil. I believe it is a Urban Decay pencil, if it is not, please include what brand it is. Thank you! Bonne journée du Québec, Canada!

[@suecone2198]

Thank you so much for sharing this great knowledge! You can’t look this info up somewhere. My eyes are my one good feature as I am aging so I love that you are sharing! I am looking forward to seeing what brushes to use. I have purchased a lot but it will be nice to know if I purchased the right ones. Thanks again for doing this series!😍

How to choose the correct foundation for your skin tone/undertone. Also how to tell your undertone if you can't see your veins! Loved the video, and thank you for the tips!

[@lisajmakeup]

Thanks Karen! Oh yes, that is definitely on my list!

[@jolene1117]

Great video, very informative. I wish you had accompanied the last tip with a graphic of it actually being done, like some of the other tips. But I'm not complaining! Thanks for the video, looking forward to more. ☺

[@lisajmakeup]

Thank you Jolene and thanks for the suggestion!

[@DB-hz6vr]

So helpful. Thank you. I find it’s easier to try the mini wing in pencil first as it’s easier and more forgiving than liquid. Easier to correct to. I have given up with gel as they dry out so quickly and I’ve thrown away so many. X
