Sali Hughes’ No Nonsense Beauty Guide: Looking Less Tired

[@michellejansen1374]

Hi Sali. Great video. Please please please do a video giving advice on how to effectively conceal spots, acne scarring & hyper-pigmentation. I'm 43 and have otherwise good skin but really struggle to make my skin appear flawless because of these issues. Here's hoping!

[@PrettyUpfront]

+Michelle Jansen Thanks for the questions Michelle x

[@plasmadlite8661]

I love Sali's approach to beauty and I would really appreciate some advice on how to wear... less make-up! I have dry skin and my foundation always turns cakey, regardless of the brand or formula. Any tips on that would be a lifesaver for me. Thank you!

[@PrettyUpfront]

+Plasma D'Lite great question x

[@jakuho4984]

Thanks for the new channel! Could you do a video on the proper use of sunblocks, particularly the differences between physical sun blocks (titanium dioxide and zinc oxide), and chemical ones, and where to slot them in our skincare routine.

[@PrettyUpfront]

+Andrea H Great suggestion! x

[@erjolaable]

Hi Sali my problem is with flaky skin, I have dry skin with hormonal breakouts and use a lot of bha aha etc, and get flaky around mouth and nose area. Thanks a lot for this great tips 💋❤️💋

[@PrettyUpfront]

+erjolaable Great question, thanks lovely x

[@erjolaable]

+Pretty Upfront would be very pleased to hear as I appreciate and follow always your opinion (like a million other people) 😍😍💖

[@zoecarter5631]

Love this new channel Sali. Great to have more videos on KZbin for the over 30s. I would like some advice on sun protection products for oily skin please. Perhaps this could be incorporated into the video Dominika is requesting below. Thanks.

[@PrettyUpfront]

+Zoe Carter Thanks Zoe, great suggestion, you're right it does tie in with alot of common problems! We'll see what we can do x

[@Curiouscrazy]

HI Sali ! I 've been following your channel for ages, LOVE this new channel ! I loved when you talked about products for dehydrated skin because it seems not many people do. Could you please do a new video on your new favourites for dehydrated skin , and the best makeup tips for this kind of skin! Thanks xo

[@PrettyUpfront]

+redlipstick678 Lovely question, thanks x

[@shukriaden5856]

Hi sali could you do a 5 min makeup on someone with dark afro caribe an skin tone thanks xx

[@cheldonning]

I absolutely hate my problem skin when wearing make up but don't feel confident enough to go out without anything on. I would love to see advice on suitable foundations for combination skin (my nose is v oily but flaky at same time!), under eye concealing which doesn't exaggerate fine lines and how to conceal adult acne and large pores without flakiness or the make up looking caked on. And all within a reasonable price range if at all possible!

[@Lisa-ms6bd]

Another informative video. I would love to hear some tips for making large pores appear less prominent.

[@PrettyUpfront]

+Lisa S Thanks Lisa, also great question x

[@elliecromarty]

Hi sali would you be able to advise on eyeshadow basics? It would be so helpful as its really hard to see where you should be applying without help. I went to a makeup artist and I now know my eye shape and how to apply but a lot of my friends and family struggle on where the eyeshadow and colours should be ! Xxx

[@PrettyUpfront]

+Ellie Cromarty Lovely idea, thanks x

[@jadewrenn4584]

I love the affordable and practical advice you give in these hire size formats. Could you help me or do a piece that covers my issues. I am a42 year old woman who has only started wearing make up I my late 30's and I feel like I don't know what I am doing. I have moisturised and tried to look after my skin from an early age. I just need some guidance as I have been to various make up counters and never really received what you seem to give to people which is something that is tailor made for them rather than a full face of make up which is scary when you have never really used foundation. I don't mind splashing out on key pieces. I just want a natural look. As I look down a microscope all day it can't be too heavy as it transfers on to my eye pieces. But I would love to learn a day look and an evening look. If I can get the basics right it will give me the confidence in how to use make up.

[@lucytownsend210]

Excellent! Suggestion for next video- how to do really fair eye brows for redheads and blondes. I cannot find a KZbin video or anything which does this well and would really appreciate some tips.

[@PrettyUpfront]

+Lucy Townsend Love that idea! We'll see what we can do x

[@lucytownsend210]

Do! I can share photos or anything if you have a moment x

[@helenashleigh1873]

Brilliant :) I couldn't definitely use some of these tips! The biggest problem I have is trying to find a moisturiser for my combination skin that will hydrate without going greasy :/ x

[@PrettyUpfront]

+Helen Ashleigh Thanks Helen! Great suggestion, we'll see what we can do, it seems its s very common problem! x

[@helenashleigh1873]

+Pretty Upfront Okie dokie, thank you :) x

[@missdoniinod]

Hi Sali, could you advise on how to reduce oiliness on the face? I do wear matt foundations plus powder a few times throughout the day but is there any skincare routine that could help to minimise the oil production?

[@PrettyUpfront]

+Dominika Konopka Fab question.

[@Ingrid0410]

Hi Dominika! I have oily skin as well! always have! I l think use a good astringent after cleansing, then just a serum (skip the am moisturizer) and use a matte foundation. I think Maybelline has a great one....super matte or something like that......I use it and love it! It comes in a little pot. I happen to love Chanel skincare for oily skin. Hope that helps you. I am an Esthetician and believe me have tried every skincare brand under the sun!

[@Nina-md3tm]

Love sali

[@Ingrid0410]

Hi Sali and greetings from LA! Your vlogs are absolutely super! I look forward to them! Can you PLEASE recommend a good anti-ageing serum for oily skin, or one that's not greasy? I currently am loving Genefique by Lancome! Are there any dupes? Does this serum by Lancome actually do anything for the skin? I love the texture and feel, don't know if it's doing anything though. And it's 175.00 US dollars! Yikes! I'd appreciate hearing from you! I am an Esthetician here in LA, ))hug))

[@mngmojo2]

Hi Sali Can you please recommend skincare especially sunblock for babies and kids

[@Jhawkins27]

Would love more ideas on makeup for older faces. Now I'm 55 I find I need lighter coverage so the fine lines don't show. My skin is in good condition thanks to a strict skincare routine but just want my makeup to look radiant and youthful.

[@Bensmummy10]

What a great video. I have dry dehydrated skin. I use a cleanser acid then face oil and moisturiser but still need to moisturise throughly the day as my face feels tight. I look for glycerin etc in my products but I wonder is there is an order to getting the best out of your products and the correct hydration? X

[@jenniferbrunek1684]

+stacey Simpson Maybe it's the cleanser you're using. I've noticed that myself, if you use a cleanser that's too stripping for your skin it takes all the moisture out. You could try a cleansing balm, it turns into an oil when you warm it up with your hands and it cleanses your face and at the same time it doesn't strip it.

[@Bensmummy10]

+Jennifer daar hey thanks for the reply. I predicate when others get involved as the gurus don't always have time to reply. I usually use Emma Hardie Balm after seeing Caroline Hirons use it but changes to the Pixi balm. I wonder if that is the reason? I read all of these pages and watch the videos but can't help think I must be missing something as my face is getting dryer especially my under eye. Makeup looks cakey all the time now 😫 x

[@jenniferbrunek1684]

stacey Simpson Hmm, I'm not familiar with the Pixi balm but I heard it was good. My skin is pretty oily but also dehydrated and I'm looking into a hydrating serum. Maybe something like that will work for you? Hydrating (gel or overnight) masks are amazing too! It's pretty funny because I'm almost 20 and because of KZbin and blogs I know quite a bit about skin care:)

[@kimberleysaint1501]

So many people praise the Bobbi Brown corrector Sali, however, I find it collects in little fine lines under my eyes. I use very little & apply with care, but still struggle with this. Are there any alternatives to help correct the grey area under my eyes on my pale & freckly skin please? I see Bobbi do a serum version - perhaps a way forward for me? So more generally, I'd love a video that covers correcting and concealing please. It could cover other areas, not just under eye. Thanks

[@williamrlandry]

+Kimberley Saint I love the new Intensive Skin Serum correctors and concealers for not creasing on dryer skin and then remember an eye cream is so important. The Bobbi Brown hydrating eye cream actually has a built in makeup primer and is a classic definitely worth trying. Also a great product to set under eye concealers from creasing is the Laura Mercier secret brightening powder (has crushed pearl in it to keep lightness but is so finely milled it doesn't sit into the skin). Hope that helps!

[@PrettyUpfront]

+Kimberley Saint Try a primer first? We'll try and get these questions to Sali! x

[@kimberleysaint1501]

+Pretty Upfront Thanks. I do use a primer.... and +William Landry I do moisturise - however I'm clearly doing something wrong. I'll keep playing & hope to crack it one day. Thanks again

[@emmahunter5848]

Hi Sali. Would be great to get some advice on covering redness without makeup ending up looking heavy or cakey. Thanks!

[@s_shaleh]

+Emma Hunter You might want to look into the anti-rougeur range from Avene. They are pre-makeup moisturizers which will help to bring down the redness and calm the skin. They come in the light version for oilier skin as well as the richer version for drier skin. For foundation, Clinique has a redness solutions foundation which also has green pigments in it that help neutralize the redness. If you still have any redness peeking through after you've taken these steps, then you can use a heavier duty concealer like Vichy Dermablend or Kevyn Aucoin's sensual skin enhancer or Estee Lauder's double wear maximum cover to conceal only where needed with a small buffing brush or a damp beauty blender. These are very highly-pigmented concealers so a little goes a long way.

[@emmahunter5848]

Thanks Sue!

[@s_shaleh]

Emma Hunter No problem. Glad I could help! Don't forget to be very gentle when applying the moisturizer and foundation so as not to aggravate the skin further. xxx

[@maxinemartin5490]

Hi Sali Can you do a makeover for Black skin And recommend cleansers for men/boys

[@PrettyUpfront]

[@FLORABUNDA42]

Hi sali. Please could you do a video on how to remove stubborn mascara. Thank you💋

[@PrettyUpfront]

+bilkiss40 Great idea!

[@racheledwards1663]

Hi Sally what colour corrector do you use? Xx

[@mekeidan]

Hi Sali, I have tried any moisturiser/primer/foundation combos and no matter what I do the foundation always cakes around my eyebrows, nose and chin. How do I solve this?

[@bezlei]

Hi I'm 48 and I am not so bothered by wrinkles, but it's the slackening of my skin I dislike, I can see the jowls appearing. How do I slow this down and hide them?

[@Ingrid0410]

Drink lots of water, get lots of sleep, smile more, and use a good serum!

[@htj194]

Where to find foundation for very Pale skin

[@afic10]

Velvet mat from Nars for dry skin is the worst!!! Full of drying alcohol.

[@sharroon7574]

Oiliness? blotting tissue!

[@stevieg6418]
