The wayyyy you apply makeup, your soothing voice and calm essence makes you so unique in the world of beauty KZbin! Not to mention your freaking skillzzzzz ⚡️💫💥💥💥 keep the tutorials coming please!!

[@emz_xo]

Spencer I miss watching You do makeup looks on Yourself 🥰 Your voice is soooo ASMR and soothing & Your skin is Flawless 😍😍😍

[@caseywoodbury3412]

Spencer, you’re beautiful and I continue to learn so much from you. Thank you.

[@mindymerriman9052]

I just love you and enjoy all your videos …

[@Olovoll]

Gorgeous with or without makeup and incredible tips. As a full coverage girl myself, I really appreciate this ❤

[@missk13.]

Not only you give the best makeup tips out there, your videos are literally therapeutic. You explain everything so clearly & your voice is soothing. Thanks for sharing with us! 🩷

[@jadeandlevi-funnyclips]

I agree!!! ❤❤

[@Clarytee217]

Unintentional ASMR

[@janb9668]

Love listening to,you explaining everything but also watching how gently apply your makeup Mesmerizing. Happy holidays 😀🇨🇦

[@MDeLorien]

​@@jadeandlevi-funnyclipssame 😊

[@moniqueb3917]

I totally agree

[@anasha_]

i truly love how you explain things and your voice is so soothing i always look forward to watch your videos

[@KingOfAllAnthonys]

How many fans of Spencer’s blink with him at the beginning every time without fail??❤ like me lol

[@elizabethruggiero9950]

I always thoroughly enjoy all your tutorials. I love that even as an older woman, I can take so much from your videos. I’m now an Elemis cleansing balm lover, and boy, you hit it on the head. Prep with that, and take years off my face. You’re a gem, Spencer!

[@Smittenhamster]

Did you use balm before as well or gel? Reason I'm asking is that I'm currently using cleansing oil and don't think switching to a specific balm would make any difference

[@elizabethruggiero9950]

I had used a gel/oil cleanser and felt like it didn’t remove everything.This Elemis balm takes Everything off without stripping my skin.

[@rebeccasmith7104]

So sorry if you’ve already touched on this, but as someone that also has a skin situation that requires makeup to even out my neck, chest, and face, I would love to hear your tips/tricks for keeping makeup from transferring to/ruining your clothes. You’re lovely to listen to and watch-thank you for your content!

[@natv6294]

The music is a great choice, it makes the video very calming and fun to watch. Thank you for sharing with us these techniques ❤️

[@katshanpatelfam]

Spencer I live for your videos. I watch them twice. You are so poised, your voice is so calm and relaxing. ❤

[@lexispassion718]

God, i adore this look !! You're amazing !

[@mariibarra1273]

I can watch this over & over hundreds of times. Thanks Spencer for the detailed tips & tricks explanations.😍 In awe.

[@Nikkinoodles324]

I always watch your videos with my mouth wide open 😮 as I’m just in awe of how gorgeous you are. Thankyou for the tips and Merry Christmas everyone 🎄❤️

[@sianbaldwin2579]

You are so amazing and yet so humble. I wish I lived in the States to have you do my make up. I’m 63 years old and hardly ever wear make up and when I have , it’s aged me so much. I really didn’t have a clue when it came to makeup. Your tutorials are so inspiring and very very gradually I am starting to improve. Thank you. X

[@PetraLilith675]

Your full coverage video is as magnificent as your mic. You have such a soothing voice and your audio and videography is fantastic. Makes for a perfect video. Merry Christmas to you and everyone watching!🎄🎅🏻

[@denorakuschel]

And a gorgeous face it is! Love your tips and videos. Your voice is mesmerizing. Do you like Elemis better than D'Alba to prep?

[@PAINTEDBYSPENCER]

Thank you! 🥹 Well Elemis has my favorite cleansing balm of all time! I use it every day. And I don't think d'alba has a cleansing balm, but I do love their products too - just for different steps. I like to use Elemis to cleanse the skin, and I like using the d'alba serum and spray to further prep & hydrate the skin ❤️

[@Елена-и1н3д]

Мир сошёл с ума ! Сидит мужик и кривляется как баба . Господи , почему ты допускаешь это ?!🤦‍♀️🙈

[@TheSumz13]

I love everything about this video and your skin is amazing with or without makeup❤️ I’d love for you to do a tutorial on someone with acne!!

[@faeriewhispers2031]

This was unintentional ASMR. Intentionally educational. Inspiring beauty.

[@yesssanibelle]

I just love to watch your videos, and love seeing the kindness and appreciation in the comments! Your positive ripple effect is so awesome.

[@Patti-1962]

I'm 61, and I want a super easy, quick makeup routine. I have purchased one cream blush, tried it, and said, "No way." I knew I would never take the time to use it. I have my HG bronzer and blush products, and I use a dewy setting spray after I apply my foundation and after powder, One thing I have learned from you is to use a powder puff to apply under eye powder!

[@PhillipsHaus]

I am like obsessed with this look. Every time I watch you do makeup..including your own…it’s flawless and magic! ❤❤❤

[@cyclerun11]

You are truly the best! Incredibly talented, kind and helpful! ❤

[@iamblackexcellence3287]

I started watching all the original “gurus” way back in the early days of KZbin when it really was enjoyable to watch and learn. You are one of the Elite artists that still bring that magic and energy to KZbin. Your vids make me fall in love with makeup again.

[@bethanyfja]

Oh yes, Im here for a body makeup look!!🫶🏽

[@glimpsingbeauty]

I recently discovered your videos and it is so nice to see all the different ages of models you work on. Thank you for the great videos!

[@danielasevilla7079]

Single-handedly saving the makeup community on KZbin! 💞☺️

[@raniakarpokoulou3111]

nice to see you back with your beautifull voice , sliding the powders down with the flow of your smoothing voice, thank you

[@maryelizabeth2581]

Spencer, you have the perfect videos. Educational, inclusive, and even ASMR!

[@arhym]

congrats new dad, you are such a gentlemen and so loving and caring Spencer, keep it up

[@ChristinePacinda]

As much as I've enjoyed re-watching your older videos, it's really nice to see that you're uploading new content. You've been missed here! And you're looking really healthy and as handsome as ever. My question for you is, is baking under the eyes for mature women (meaning looser skin, more creases, wrinkles, etc.) ever a good idea, or will it simply accentuate the 'signs of aging'? I have oily skin, so I use a lot of powder, but I don't want it to age me even more than life itself is doing.

[@doodles197]

I appreciate the jazz piano music you chose for the background. Very soothing and sultry

[@leftoverdeluxe]

That side eye smile!!

[@musicandmania]

You are my favorite makeup channel, i love watching your videos while I prepare for a night out...and sometimes i watch your videos when im feeling blue because you're so comforting. You are kind of like the Bob Ross of makeup. And i love you

[@bri_Ilona]

I have been looking for this exact simple explanation of base makeup, and for me, you nailed it. ❤ Thank you, sweetie 😊

[@auntiem71]

Spencer: the best. ❤

[@carriepickett2687]

I just like the vibe of this video it felt relaxing, genuine, and after 3 decades of makeup I still learned about something I want to try (the balm!!!) 😊

[@lizaron6890]

Such a talented, beautiful, and generous Soul you are Spencer! Thank you for posting these wonderful, informative videos. You are a pleasure to watch, and to learn from!🥰

[@debbiefitzpatrick3872]

Love❤ your makeup tutorials Spencer! Your videos are very informative! Thanks so much and hope 2024 is a blessed one for you and your loved ones! Also your face is beautiful without cosmetics! And your voice is soooo soothing! I could listen to you all day!👍❣😊

[@juliana_imholz]

I discovered your channel a year ago and I bought the Elemis cleansing balm based on your recommendation to prep my skin for the wedding makeup. And I loved it! Now, I really want to try it as a mask (as you suggested) and I'm very exited to see the result!!! Thanks a lot!💓💓💓🤩🤩🤩

[@kathleencoomans8210]

Thankyou so much for the clue about using the Elemis directly prior to makeup for a moisturised and well treated skin….

[@casperxo99]

your voice is so calming, and I love how sophisticated your videos are.

[@deniseduncan487]

😂Spencer I've been watching your beautiful makeup looks for so long and find them so therapeutic. Just your voice and gentle ways soothe my soul. You are a stunner in full makeup but seeing this video, I was taken aback by how truly beautiful you are! Inside and out ❤

[@theniklovely510]

I always learn so much from your tutorials, and I’m always sharing them with my friends. You’re the best

[@_Ag-]

Thank you for your channel and for sharing yourself and your talents in this way, Spencer; I feel like you transmit the very best energy out there - pure radiance!✨ - and I feel genuinely lucky to get to spend my time witnessing what you create. Plus I learn a ton. A zillion thanks!

[@theepoppi12345]

Lord have mercy, this man is gorgeous! 😩 Talented, gifted, blessed 🙏🏾 ☺️ 🖌 ❤

[@banda_yo3342]

ياجميل لم اتوقع في حياتي ان هنالك فيديوهات ستشعرني بالأسترخاء عند مشاهدتها حتى فيديوهات الموسيقى الهادئة والتأمل لكن عندما وجدتك في كل مرة اشاهد الفيديوهات التي تصنعها اشعر بسعادة واسترخاء انت حقا جميل في شكلك وعملك ولدينا مثل بالعربية نقوله لأمثالك (الشخص الصح في المكان الصح) نعم انه انت❤

[@thisproagestyle]

I love your videos and instrumental inspiration! At 68 years old, I never stop learning about makeup Nd you’re the best teacher!

[@serenadurden]

His voice, is so calming!!!

[@da2585]

Your makeup techniques and methods are outstanding. You are a breath of fresh air!!!

[@FelineFurKin]

Interesting to see the bronzer in place of contour. I haven’t got to grips with contouring but can put on a little bronzer more easily. The Elemis cleanser sounds amazing and it comes in various sizes, I love that to try a small pot more cheaply first.

[@alexandrabaltazar28]

Watching your videos is free therapy for me❤

[@jimb0brite]

A good little video that I haven't seen made is where to highlight on your individual face structure and why some people struggle with it not knowing to just shift your face back and forth in a natural light, and see where the highest and lowest shine points ARE that will let you know how much more and how much less to apply in those areas. BTW! YOU have such a...GODLY GODDESS complexion Spence. I'm REALLY impressed by how you take care of it. It's truly remarkable.

[@iyahnuh3101]

So calming omg 😩😩😩

[@kellybalen6333]

I adore you Spencer, for your technique and your kind spirit. It shows through ! I hope to have my next full face look more like you 🌹

[@kimkeever3692]

After watching one of your earlier makeup tutorials, I bought the Elemis Cleansing Balm and I'm loving how it makes my skin feel Thank you, Spencer!

[@katrinaryan1739]

This is beautiful but I would also like to see how you make up your eyes Spencer, you have the prettiest eyes I have ever seen and eyelashes to die for!🥰💜

[@agustinreyes5700]

Me encanta la paz que transmites Spencer

[@jadedspades]

I love your voice. Fantastic tutorial, you look beautiful. Have a lovely holiday and thank you for bringing light to so many of us.

[@pugtales]

[@JeanDunn-w1z]

This was unintentional ASMR. Intentionally educational. Inspiring beauty.. Spencer, me encanta como trabajas y tratas la piel con suavidad!!!.

[@jdhcgeucbdbdhch1338]

You did an excellent job. Always look forward to your videos. Happy Holidays

[@Canuckbelgo]

Hi Spencer, I hate to d-sound like a "fawning fan" but any time one of your videos pops up, your way of speaking and your voice just relaxes me. I feel that you must be a genuine and kind person - or a very good actor. lol Wishing you a lovely day from not-so-sunny southern Belgium. xx

[@amandagabby777]

Beautiful makeup, Spencer! I’ve learned so much from you over the years! Thank you! 🤍✨💋

[@makeup-stel5465]

Spencer, me encanta como trabajas y tratas la piel con suavidad!!!

[@CHERYLCAREY-df7sd]

You are so awesome! I learned a lot. Especially the part about NOT bringing the foundation up to the under eye area since you are putting concealer there.

[@kristinm.9204]

Love your work, Spencer. You’re so talented. True Artist!❤

[@MeliAlvarezc]

Watching you is the best part of my day

[@jessicamarsh9779]

Your base is so incredibly flawless! I love it… I have such a hard time with products on my nose. Right in the center of my nose products just don’t sit there right & will start lifting. I’ve tried so many things, using less products, I’ve tried using an eyeshadow base (like UD Eye Potion) as a primer to hold there (it’s helped a bit). The rest of my face can hold a beat, it’s just that part. I’ve tried using primers & not using primers, idk what else to try.

[@jolandacp]

I could watch these tutorial of yours all day...❤

[@jyemichael]

so calming.

[@Lifeas_Diana]

Texture Spencer your skin is a smooth as a baby bum. I’m obsessed with your face and skills ❤

[@kimhsiang8049]

Stunning before and after makeup! 😊 Can you give any tips for lines on the forehead and above the top lip? I dont know whether I should be using less or more product (foundation, concealer, powder) to disguise them.Also any tips to overline a top lip when you have lines. Any info appreciated! Thank you soo much x Have a fab holiday break ❤❤

[@helendidilis6035]

Love you Spencer my makeup looks Amazing because of YOU.❤

Not just you 🫶 your voice also relaxes me and had kept me away (a lot) from the fomo I feel to continue buying makeup I do not need. I DO really appreciate and thank your help reminding me I have to learn how to use all I already have 🙏🏼. I wouldn't have guessed your vitiligo I just thought you were pale, I see you guapísimo with no makeup, but with .... ready for the catwalk 🤩!!! Greetings and blessings always 💐!!!
