Q&A: Relationship, Friendship, Quitting YT? & More

[@melthompson2856]

Hey, beauties! Thank you so much for all your love!!!! I just wanted to let you guys know that I will be spending the day with my mom so I won’t be able to get back to as many comments as usual. But I love you and thank you for watching!

[@sorpy6972]

Mel Thompson PLEASE PLEASE!! Help. How did you do to overcome your anger 😔. I’m in the middle of a separation and it’s due to my behavior 😢. Im such an angry person. I just started therapy yesterday. I hope this is read by you. Thx

[@PinCushionQueen]

Sorpy 69 I know you didn’t ask me but because I empathize with you I wanted to share that Therapy is key for me . Takes courage & makes all of the difference, in my experience . Good for you . Learn about yourself , forgive yourself , love yourself & the rest will eventually follow . Holding good thoughts for you !

[@sorpy6972]

Noir Alibi thx 🙏 u!!!! That meant a lot

[@nadiadncr]

Hugs to your mom 💕 😘 Wayne Goss and Lisa Eltridge are my two picks too! I’ll always believe in you much love to you 💕

[@PinCushionQueen]

Sorpy 69 I’m so happy I can . Anger is usually the underlying symptom of sadness that we haven’t dealt with yet . It’s perfectly normal as a human being, & the fact that you are doing the work speaks volumes about you . Keep your head up , it’ll get better ,but give it time , do the work . It pays off I promise you .

I'm watching so many of your videos again. You will be missed by many people.

Same here 💔

[@amylovespilates]

RIP Beauty ! You will be missed by many.

[@QueenofMarine]

Like so many others, I've been rewatching your videos, and they are so heartbreaking now that you're gone. I wish you could see the outpouring of love & admiration for you, and all of the wonderful things people have said about you over the last month. You had a very special charisma and a light that is far from ordinary. You were sweet, kind, loving, and empathetic. You set a great example of how one can be successful without trampling on other people, without talking badly about others, and without getting involved in petty drama. You were an amazingly talented artist, a great teacher, and your excitement for your craft was contagious. And if course, you were incredibly, stunningly gorgeous. You had the head turning kind of beauty, the kind of beauty that draws you in and is hard to look away from, that rare and radiant beauty that can only come from the inside out. You are absolutely, without question, an icon in our community and we will never forget you. I hope that one day your Momma, your sweet kids, and your beloved Puffin will be able to read all these messages and know how loved you are what a big impact you made on so many people. Rest in peace, Mel. We love you. 💖

My daughter wanted an iPad when she was 6. She worked & saved, walked dogs, did chores, saved every penny she made or got as gifts (we did pay the sales tax). Not a scratch on it after 2 year’s! I totally agree... kid’s especially... take better care of thing’s they work hard for 🤗

I think sometimes going through a rough time as a married couple, it shows the true love in both of you! It is so much harder to stay in love, than to fall in love. So glad that you and Puffin were able to get past it!!! ❤❤❤

I have a couple auto immunes and it has ravaged my life this past decade. Chronic pain eats at your soul. It can impact relationships while it limits everything you want to do. So happy that you are finding your way through it! Congrats to your mom's progress and wishing her continued recovery 💛

[@fitfatbrittrny]

From someone who deals with chronic pain among other issues I totally get what it’s like to snap at the ones you love and hate yourself for it. Thank god for therapy. Thanks for being so open with us ❤️

[@pandorah1801]

I am so thankful you live on for us in your videos.Mel. Much love ❤️

[@christinapage4748]

I just wanted to say it’s refreshing seeing you talk about your relationship struggles. I’ve been with my husband 21 years married for 11 of those and we definitely have gone through a major hard time and came out stronger. I think now a days people seem to think o just throw the relationship away but it’s ok to not be perfect in a relationship and to have struggles and then to come out stronger

[@S-R-H]

When we're in pain, it's hard to see past our own noses. It makes most people self-absorbed, without meaning to be, concentrating on the pain. I went through years of chronic pain (and still do although better). When I was hurting, it was difficult to step outside of myself and see how it affected other people because I hurt so bad. We all do the best we can. I'm glad things are going better for you.

[@rachelcrawford1977]

Shelby Hall for me it’s the fatigue that’s the hardest your in all this pain and then all you want is sleep which you can not get so you feel like your going crazy

[@savanah1407]

[@laceylynncrafts]

Miss you so much sweet girl! I’m going to watch at least one of your videos everyday.

[@GiNgErSnAp-bh7eq]

My husband dropped the D bomb on me about a year ago. It was devastating. Since then we really have come around and we are still together and working on being more positive with eachother, communicating better and being more affectionate. After being together 15 years, you really do have to put in the effort, it's so easy to become complacent and take eachother for granted. I'm so glad you and puffin made it too!

[@CraftySheryl]

Thank you for answering everyone's questions even when the answers bring up difficult areas. It takes a strong person to show their vulnerability to the world.

WOW..I wonder if this suggestion is what got Mel to do Tiny Marvels, which, BTW..I ordered the day it was released and luv so much. Reminds me of Mel everytime I look at it on my vanity.

[@kalm911chick9]

Bless your heart for being so honest about your life...be assured that there is someone out there who will be blessed and encouraged because of it. I'm so sorry for the health problems you've had and continue to live with. I have severe RA and OA and had both knees replaced at 48 before I was even diagnosed, so I feel your pain. I enjoy watching your videos and your beautiful personality. Stay positive and loving.

[@Loralarify]

AMEN to people saying stuff like “I miss you looking like this, etc” I feel that - and it takes a lot of confidence /bravery sometimes, in a world where we are constantly bombarded with comparisons and the next ‘best thing’ to stand up and say, this is who I am, and I LIKE IT! I’m happy with who I am!” 😘 you inspire me and help me to be my best self, whenever I watch you , Mel. Never change!

[@TLynch-pf3ek]

You are so amazingly beautiful and authentic. Since I have been watching you, you have not changed, which is something I find so refreshing- Your fame here has not changed you. I hope that makes sense.

[@samanthaschneider9770]

Omg I relate so much to your pet peeve about comments! I keep my hair buzzed because I’m very sick and take meds that my hair gets really unhealthy, and I’m constantly asked why I won’t grow my hair out. I really don’t see what’s wrong with our buzzed heads! Honestly, that’s why I found you, I felt I was the only woman with a buzzed head and felt ugly. Seriously, you rock it!!!

[@Loralarify]

I’ve done that as well... Yelling and taking things out on the people I loved the most when I was going through the worst times in my life. When you can come through those times, with the person you love, and it gets better, and you learn from it, it’s the best and strongest love you will ever have.

[@manderobinson8875]

Wayne Goss and Lisa Eldridge are both phenomenal. Their aesthetic is perfection. Your knowledge regarding brushes is exactly what we need. I would purchase them. I still have my Wayne Goss set you sent me. I can’t live without them. I guess I’ll wait five more years for yours.

[@seekthetruth1485]

Mel...you are the queen of blending! Your camera work is GREAT, and the colors always are spot on. You have saved me so much money and grief from buying poor products. I do not think you know how much you mean to us! Love you so much, and appreciate your hard work. I can do my face so well from watching you, folks think I have a makeup artist do my face. Love you!

[@carolynmanners7838]

I wrote my previous comment/question before I watched this video so I wanted to say that I think you are the most incredible person and so honest and open. I did see “that” video, I just cried for you, I was so happy when you and your husband worked things out and am so pleased to know what a good place you are in now, you deserve so much 💕

[@melthompson2856]

Thank you. That warms my heart more than you know ❤️

[@rachelleigh4035]

Decluttering tip - If the product is lightly used, try selling to Glambot. Their payout isn't particularly high, but they do free shipping and instead of consignment, they buyout directly from you. Just make sure you send at least 15 qualifying items and stick to the list of brands they accept! I usually get around 50$ per 15 items sent.

[@lipstickrulesmylife]

I could definitely see you doing a set of brushes.

[@suecone2198]

I am so glad you gave an update on how your Mom is doing! You both have been in my thoughts & prayers. I must say when I started watching you I really wasn’t into tattoos but since you have shown some of them and also talked about what some of them mean to you I have an appreciation for them. You have a real talent for applying eyeshadow! You can blend and everything comes out looking great. I really do love you Mel and I always watch your videos, but I am 77 years old and there is no way I can wear some of the eye looks you do , but this doesn’t mean I don’t love to see you do them. I have learned a lot about the application of makeup in general from you. The bottom line is this: if it doesn’t work for Mel or Angie (hot & flashy) then I won’t be spending my money on a product. I bet if you really asked Wayne to do your makeup he would because I know he watches your videos. Thanks for all the answers! Thanks 😊

I can 100% relate to your growth through the wake up call with Puffin. And I thank you for your candor. I'm disabled and my poor husband bore the brunt. He came to me in tears, saying he couldn't take it anymore. I suppose I was angry at my body. Anyhoooo, becoming who we REALLY are takes many lessons (for some people). I have grown because of my disabilities. 20 years on ... we are doing great. I take the time to check in on him and ask how he is and tell him constantly how much I adore him. And I do. Thank you again Mel, you are, amongst other things, inspirational and beautiful inside AND out. 💗💗💗💗

[@lubazak636]

Thanks for sharing yourself. In general People are more alike than different. Judgement hurts the person that is doing the judging. It’s pretty toxic. Judgemental people are usually judging themself really harshly as well. Hitting bottom stimulates personal growth, like nothing else, but it can certainly be a tough one to go through. I have been there, and am climbing out and up now. You have a beautiful spirit and I love your tutorials. I am a big fan.😍❤️💕

I actually saw comments from people about Puffin and the comments in the video when you had him on camera with you it broke my heart. I understand people are just being protective of you, but what they don't realize, 2 people are in a marriage. It wasn't all him, yet, he was catching the blame. You clearly are in a much better place, dedicating a Lipstick to him in the collection was enough too say you both were doing great and in a wonderful place. I've been married 20 years, and 8 years in, we had a similar situation. And it made us stronger. Marriages have their ups and downs, without them, you don't grow. But, I hope now that you addressed it, people will see him differently, because he seems like such a cool guy, and ADORES you. He deserves LOVE from your followers because he's apart of your happiness we see everyday❤❤❤ #teampuffin #teammuffin 💋

It’s not the fairytale we’ve been sold, a marriage takes work on both parts. They’re messy and complicated, that’s how we grow as a couple. No one has a perfect marriage, we choose to love someone in spite of who they are not BECAUSE of who they are. Everyday we make the choice to love only “this”one.

My face was trashed, big brown "maps" all over my face, horrible... I tried Obagi and that worked at the price that my face was always red and irritated. I stopped it due to the doctor I got it from stopped selling it. Enter one day when I was at Nordstrom without makeup, brown spots in full, when a saleslady suggested I try Dr. Dennis Gross... OMG, this is the best skin I have ever had!!!!
