It's so refreshing to see a beautiful woman who embraces her age and at the same time inspires all of us to feel beautiful and comfortable in our own skin! You go, Nikol!

[@Cinnamongun1]

Seems to me she’s not just doing tutorials, she’s hawking her products simultaneously. Which is time consuming, get to the point! I have one word for “aging, droopy eyes.” BLEPHAROPLASTY!!

[@9767milk]

There’s always that one viewer!

[@carolan3269]

​@Cinnamongun1 Not hawking, suggesting, simply because Nikol has put a lot of work into developing products that will help our particular concerns.. she is also aware of texture of same, how this may affect sensitive, older skin, such things that other product lines may not be considering. The design of her brushes too help older women achieve the look she is teaching, better. Not everyone can afford eye surgery or particularly wants to go "under the knife"..

[@pecklej18]

I am 33 and have hooded eyes, always have, even as a teen. I've been doing my eyeliner like this for a while now and it really suits us hooded eyelid folks much better than a liquid liner cat eye. I think hooded eyes can be quite sexy actually! All my makeup tips come from older women these days, they really understand how to use makeup properly rather than just caking on some shape tape.

[@lollidolli]

Yes! Same! Have had hooded eyes for as long as I can remember. My husband says he loves my eyes because they're, "sultry," and very Marilyn Monroe-ish. I'll definitely take it!!

[@bigdogsrescue]

Great video. You are a wonderful canvas. So so striking.

[@staywildsasquatch5144]

I have the Asian eye type and I love my hooded eyes. Makes a person unique, but we can play them up. Be proud of your gorgeous cat eyes!

[@Lisamalmgren]

I’d like to order the lid product but you have the wrong link for lids by design. I’d like to give you the credit so maybe you can see what’s happening?

[@PaullyMiller]

I love also seeing natural-looking makeup, especially because so many tutorials are drag-inspired and way over the top. I love that, too, but showing people how to do a natural look without all the exaggerated contouring and layers on layers is a real service.

[@EssentialTruth_]

Love that you are allowing yourself, and encouraging other women, to age gracefully and not try to look like 20-year-olds long after it’s realistic. Aging is not the end of beauty - it’s just a transition in how you present your beauty. I love this eyeliner trick! I’ve dabbled with lining in the lash line, but I’ve never tried the little lift at the end of the lashes. Definitely trying that out! Thank you!

[@gg33]

Aging can be beautiful. I feel better at 65 than 45.

[@SuzD0n]

I love how you say it's a transition of beauty. I will adopt that mindset from now on.

[@ThundermansThunder]

You make a good point. There is a beauty that comes with age that can sometimes rival that of younger women. Some of the most beautiful women that I have ever seen really seemed to peak in their physical beauty in their 40's and 50's despite the minor "imperfections," such as wrinkles, grey hair, etc. that may be present. Of course, physical beauty is temporal. The old saying "Pretty is, as pretty does" plays the biggest, most important factor in anyone's overall beauty, because inner beauty endures forever, the precious beauty that is not affected by time!

[@CC12398]

Yeah but seriously this woman has beautiful tight , skin no lines, if she colored her hair she would look early thirties or younger. I think that beautiful gray color is so nice on 60 and above.. it's like I know she's not old but I can't tell how old she is I would put her anywhere from 40 to 60 by the hair... This is coming from a 50-year-old woman . This woman is just beautiful

[@EssentialTruth_]

@@CC12398 She really is beautiful. I think a lot of older women sell themselves short when it comes to beauty. Women in general do, though. Not that this woman in particular sells herself short, just reflecting on women’s beauty expectations in general. And we forget how outer beauty only takes a person so far. Inner beauty, in women AND in men, goes so much further. Anyone who doesn’t value you because you don’t meet their expectations of outer beauty, especially when your inner beauty (kindness, loving nature, intelligence, helpfulness, protectiveness, etc) shines so bright, is not worth your time. No one gets to the end of their lives and wishes they’d been around prettier people. They wish they’d surrounded themselves with inner beauty. It’s so much more fulfilling and brings so much more beauty to life than looks ever could even dream of doing. Anyway, that’s my monologue for the day. lol

[@melissabrown8878]

It's good to see a woman in my age group showing how to put on makeup. Our skin changes so much as we get older and the techniques we used on our much younger skin, just highlights our flaws. Thank you for doing this video.

Yes!

[@iAMAMACHINE777]

I am a younger women and I would like to say how much I just LOVE this tutorial! All the other makeup tutorials that I've watched always use a ton of concealer and not only does it smell like clay, it makes your face feel like clay and it clogs your pores, dries out and breaks out your skin. I like how you kept things simple and highlighted your NATURAL beauty. This was full of nice tips and tricks and I also appreciate that you to the time to explain why you are choosing to use certain colors and explaining each step as you go. It made the video very easy to follow and the results turned out great! Thank you!

Nothing will age a woman more than wearing the same makeup they wore in high school. It's evolution and you were absolutely fantastic. It's not heavy contouring and it all looks natural.

That a bright lip looks best with a neutral eye is just classic.

Thank you Nikol for being SO VERY encouraging to all of your viewers; especially so, for us mature ladies. You are a tonic, yourself ! You do more than just lift and boost the eyes here but you lift and boost the soul, with your honesty and humour. Ive watched many other beauty channels, over the years, that just dont quite make that really vital, human connection. You are not just making videos but you actually connect with your audience, at that heart level. That is a game changer, imho. Instead of feeling that putting on eye makeup, especially for hooded eyes ( my upper lids sit right on my lash line ) is such a huge negative experience, you guide us through the whole process. The simple techniques you teach actually work! ..all the while encouraging us, as we come out the other, much sunnier side. I also love the way you, respectfully but cheerily, address us all as " ladies". Have a wonderful day. God bless you !

[@sonyahest]

Brow design is so important as well for a more youthful look. Just by thinning out a thick brow a bit and making sure the color isn't too dark you can take off years!!

[@calishabaker6087]

Wow. This sounds like a really targeted comment. I think her eyebrows are beautiful. Thin, over-plucked eyebrows instantly give away your age (everyone can tell you were a teen/young adult in the 90s). If I were you, I would ask myself why I felt compelled to leave a catty comment. Why do you feel threatened? What do you have to gain by putting another woman down? We women need to stand together, show one another compassion and support, and stop with the insecurity driven backhanded “compliments” and snarky comments intended to cut other women down but in reality cuts us ALL down. When we’re busy being catty and feeling threatened by other women, we fail to see the real threat.

Love the idea of doing the eyes first then finishing the face because there's less product layering (which makes us look older) going to try it today!! Thanks! I'm 56 and don't have much eyelid " real estate " so while I don't have a hooded eye from aging, everything is still a little saggy. And as we know a little sag anywhere adds years. I don't mind aging gracefully and surgery is a no for me, but tips and tricks are a win! 🤗

I’m a little lost when it comes to what I need to buy first and how to organize all these products on my new vanity 😃. To simplify, I want to keep my products separated as to morning routine, night routine, and an everyday makeup routine.

[@martigallagher7250]

One thing I decided to do was to put all products up to the point of makeup near my sink. Cleanser, facial spray, serums, moisturizer, sunscreen, etc. i had room fir a bamboo tray and put a plastic bin under the sink for the refills or things I may only use 1x/week. Then makeup goes elsewhere (vanity, top of a tall dresser, a wall mounted shelf…along with mirror with lighting appropriate for where I’m going). I went to the Container Store for clear lucite organizers to match what makeup items I use. A pretty piece of pottery or class for brushes, etc. It seems like the time spent flows much better now.

You're my new hero. I tell everyone I plan on living to be 125. That doesn't mean I have to look 125. We will never look like we did in our 20's. We will continue to evolve as we age and I choose to embrace the journey and be the best I can be. Getting older doesn't bother me, but that doesn't mean I should no longer care about appearance. I know it will constantly change, and I will need to adapt and adjust whatever makes me feel good. I will never have plastic surgery, so I will continue to take good care of my skin.🙃

New subscriber right here and can't wait to check out the rest of your videos! 🥰❤❤

After you let your hair down the lips worked! I love it!

[@mariesprowl2348]

Beautiful technique and application. I’ve been heading in that same direction with the liner going up or even not wearing eye makeup at all that often but still doing concealer, Blush, contour and lipstick. I don’t seem to look that great eyeliner anymore so I actually bought a couple of old school colored mascaras (green and blue) to bring a hint of color near my lash line as a liner substitute. I actually get a lot of compliments.

[@gloria-kn8wo]

Your technique for the eyeliner looks great! Can't wait to try it.

[@diannehusted1199]

She's a beautiful lady, gorgeous hair and so very inspiring to watch. Great video!

[@shihtzumom7209]

BRAVA!!! So fabulous to see makeup and SKIN CARE products reviewed by someone over the age of 22! sigh lol. I have seen a few beauty videos for the over 40+ on YT, but your channel is by far THE best I have found. Thank you for your clear, direct, very instructional, no BS tutoroal videos!

[@hazelatwood2292]

Wow! I feel like I just found my very own, personalized instructor. My hair, eyes and skin coloring is so similar to yours. And I am LOVING your nail and lip color! I just love your look and style - and feel inspired by you. So I’ve subscribed and look forward to watching more of your videos. Take care. And thanks again for making these videos. 🤗

[@reneemeyer9107]

Great summer lip colour with the blush. I'm experimenting with more corals and finding that my gray hair let's me wear brighter colour than I could before my hair colour lightened. So much fun.

[@MoniqueBoulangerMSG]

*stumbles upon this* YES! Someone around my age doing makeup tutorials Thank you!!!

[@8fternoon]

I have hooded eyes and THIS WAS SO HELPFUL!!!!❤❤❤

[@abigailkester1692]

That was so helpful!!! I stopped wearing makeup because my eyes changed and started drooping on top of being hooded and none of my makeup techniques were working for me anymore and I didn't know what to do! I'm also grateful that you developed a mascara for aging lashes. I have thin, sparse, greasy eyelashes that nothing ever seemed to work for. I'm going to be trying your out!

[@Janellabelle]

Have you tried Latisse yet for your eyelashes? Its RX, but it was worth it for me my lashes touch my eyebrows.

[@kellytimmer7356]

Love the fact that you are so comfortable with ageing. I would also love to be able to do the wing eyeliner, but every time it looks so ridiculous! so thank you for the tips I will definitely try this tomorrow. Also, I just want to say "Bravo" for going 'a la natural' with your hair colour. It looks stunning! This is also something I have been working on this year. Nearly there!

[@sparkleme1237]

You are beautiful and Amazing. Such simple little things and no cake. I love the bright coral on you. It looks great. Thank you hun for doing this for us older gals. It makes us feel like we're still HERE regardless of how much we're told to go away.

[@busygaljax2011]

Eyeliner application! Game changer!!! Trying this asap.

[@tortugapoet]

This is so great! I have hooded eyes and this video came up in my recommended! My eyes also angle down and the line of my lid extends out further, so this is perfect. I actually do something pretty close (I use bronze eyeliner and I do the trick with macara) but I'm excited to try the drag up from the last lash!!

[@yvonneagosto7310]

Thank you soooo much for this awesome tip for our hooded eyes….!!

[@blankblank5524]

Thanks so much!!!Finally, an easy to follow technique for mature eyes!!💚🧡💜

[@krissykri]

This has got to be the most helpful make-up tutorial I have ever seen! Thanks so much!

[@r-ratedreviewswithheather601]

This tutorial fell in my lap and I unexpectedly enjoyed it. Most make-up videos show layer over layer, over layer of cake and it looks terrible. Technically, I can still pull off a good wing tip, but at my current age, I reserve it for occasions I'm going for a more dramatic look. As I get older, I appreciate a more natural look. Being overdone on a regular basis just makes some women look even older. There's nothing wrong with ageing, but I have no interest in speeding up the process! Lol, I simply love that when she applies her eyeliner, she naturally runs the liner across the lid, and doesn't grab and pull on her eye like so many women do! At any age, but especially as we age, one technique or habit all women should follow is to not yank and pull on the eyelid to apply liner. I cringe when I see it done, The skin around the eye is so thin and delicate, with so little elasticity. Kudos for showing how it should be done.

I love this ty! Love the eyeliner technique I will definitely try it..I’m 63 Tuesday & could never get that cat eye bc of the fold..thanks again💜

You are STUNNING!!!!! I love your hair and the way you embrace aging. Yes, I am finding out that the Techniques I used to do in my younger years are not the best for me anymore. Thank you for sharing

[@ave_rie]

I love that other women are finally discovering eyelid tape! I’ve used eyelid tapes from asian brands for years whenever I want to play with other looks 😊 Also appreciate the close-ups!

[@lindaf114]

I actually didn't know such a thing existed and now I must try. Are they single use only? I'm almost 44 and have always had super hooded eyes but as I age it's getting worse

[@Bunny11344]

[@ChrissyGrace2611]

Have you ever thought about using a cooler toned lipstick with your cool skin and hair? I think you could go nice and bright with a cooler tone! I do love the finished look!

[@peachroses5516]

I don't like that lipstick on her, makes her look much older. But she has good tips on eye makeup

[@amiyang2844]

I agree, different color would look better.

[@evamz9584]

I think I am cooler tone. What are some nice lip colors for me? I'm pale olive tone.

So glad I found you. You uplift my days. Love your nail color. Love the lipstick color.

[@PattiOrsburn]

I only wear makeup on the weekend, and I've had a difficult time with my eyes. I do skincare everyday, I have taken good care of my skin, but my eye lids, and undereye are really showing the ageing problems. I loved this video. Speaking right to my eye challenges! I m going to practice your techniques and experiment. Wish me luck because I've tried so many tips from other mature skin artists on KZbin without success. Thanks for giving me hope that I can fix my very visible aging eye makeup problems. Your videos are very helpful!

[@vickycorey8195]

Wishing you the best luck with these techniques! I'm going to try them, too!

[@notasandwich19]

I‘m very young, in my 20s. But this technique helped me SO unbelievably MUCH! I have almost a triple-fold in my upturned eyes, making eyeliner impossible. This finally gave me the look I‘ve always wanted, and it turns out so wonderfully elegant. I love your channel, thank you so much for this! 💗

[@ellecarro875]

Hi sweetestwhisper I looked for your videos. I want to encourage you to make one for people who have eyes like yours. Or your beauty finds. Have a blessed day!

[@just_Janet]

I am so happy to have found you! I've been sick for almost 4 years and need to start a new makeup regime to gain SOME control over my dang face!

[@laroma1653]

Your tutorials are amazing and this trick for the hooded eyes is one of my favorites. My one request is maybe doing one that focuses more on the close-up. It’s easier to grasp when I can visually see the process. Thank you!

[@lisagrainger6340]

I absolutely love your videos 💗 thank you so much for the eyeliner tip….I have been wearing eyeliner along my upper lashes with a little winged cat eye since the eighties but my eyes are so droopy now lol. I am 7 months in to growing out my grey hair too….you are such an inspiration ☺️

[@JaimeBlackBird]

I’m 44 & I have long, black hair…I’m starting to find a silver strand here & there…AND THEY’RE SPECTACULAR!! Like you, I cannot wait until I have sparkling silver locks 🏆

[@cindytodd9455]

I am so happy to have stumbled across this when I was looking at exercise videos. Where have you been my whole life I’m going to start watching your daily and trying to apply your techniques to my daily habits. Your make up is amazing. Such a beautiful lady. Thank you. I appreciate you.

[@lulu-ox5yr]

Ah just love you're confidence ,wish I had that

[@chrismahfouz7709]

Thank you as always Nikol for your wonderfully instructional and inspirational video(s)! ❤️ I’ve been doing this little upward eyeliner flick for maybe 2 years and it is subtle but together with the eyeshadow technique that you teach, it gives a noticeably more lifted look to me. I love the coral as a change in Summer (and the “orangie” nail polish!). You look beautiful in whatever you wear! Much love to you and the positive ladies here in the comments…❤️
