VEDA 2014: I Am A Makeup Artist

[@Vardagaladhiel]

I can't fully express how much better this video has made me feel after a long, boring and annoying day at work! Tbh it looks like it could've gone a whole lot worse than it did and she definitely didn't make it easy on you with liquid liner and false eyelashes. I loved her unimpressed face when you used the shimmer!

[@KaWulfe]

Just to ask, are you supposed to do that with a shimmer? I know about as much of this as Michael.

[@Vardagaladhiel]

Josephine-Charlotte Leyman From personal experience messing around with makeup when I was a kid- not really unless you want to be all glittery which tends to look a bit odd (unless you're cosplaying someone from Twilight XD).

[@KaWulfe]

Vardagaladhiel Haha, okay, thanks.

[@TeresaMcD]

That was actually kind of adorable and very sweet. You were so careful and gentle!

[@boredwillow]

I really hope the "Michael Aranada is so good at everything ever without even trying" series becomes an actual thing because that is the best name for a series ever.

[@brittneeweiland]

hahah love this. Sam is so hilarious. You introduced me to her a channel a while ago and I'm so glad you did! She's seriously talented.

[@Elinious]

Well if there's anything I've learned it's that you have really nice hands and I'm not the only one who sucks at winging out eyeliner.

[@marianniezayas1531]

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that about his hands!

[@samanthab438]

Michael you have very pretty hands and an extremely brave friend in Samantha

[@michaelaranda]

Why thanks, Sam the Velociraptor!

[@finnaaalllyyygoddamnn]

yeh

[@melschroeds]

I could not stop laughing during the eyeliner part. Just the way Michael was holding her face to keep her from moving and the awkward hand positions to get the eyeliner on. Made my day!

[@DanThePropMan]

"That is *really* pink. Jesus Christ." - Michael Aranda, makeup artist

[@finnaaalllyyygoddamnn]

just watched that bit. lil

[@Dithyrambos-h5e]

"It's like painting a painting." - Michael Aranda, professional voice guy.

[@Fainora]

you can just hear her thoughts, "oh god my brushes my poor brushes"

[@acm997]

I love Samantha's videos, I didn't know you guys were friends!

[@kiddooo10]

I had to pause while he was putting on her eyeliner and my roommate asked me why I was watching some guy choke a girl out.

[@voiceofgosh]

i love the vice-like grip ***** had on her jaw while applying the liquid liner

[@juststeveschannel]

Couldn't stop thinking how many women would be dying for the chance to have you working on their faces like this...except for the one who actually had it happen, when it came to the time for it to actually happen. Once again, reality fails utterly to live up to the fantasy. Sigh...real life. "If nothing else, you've been very gentle." --> Cue sound of fantasies regenerating all over the interweb.

[@malgram8524]

Michael was so close to actually doing a video every day! Haha, love the content pal. Keep it up!

[@strange2684]

Happy trees and happy clouds! Love Bob Ross!

[@AcornRiot]

lets do a part 2 where you do Stefan's makeup

[@steakuccino]

I used to do make-up as a job and I have to say, for an amateur, you seem surprisingly comfortable with those false lashes. I was terrified of gluing eyes shut for a long time.

[@MeowingFool]

I mean, I've seen a lot of guys do worse at this challenge, where they've made people look like miss piggy basically. So, not a horrible job after all.

[@Ybag12345]

this might be weird but I really love your hands

[@vadermolt1]

Yup, definitely weird.

[@nicetsukki]

I didn't think it was that bad for a first time :D

[@wingedshoes7]

I can't even do eyeliner, man. It's okay. I just wear as little makeup as possible.

[@PaulaJaey]

She's wearing a Van City sweater, her nails are gorgeous, and she has red hair; therefore, I LOVE HER. Also, congrats on doing a woman's makeup for the first time, Michael! I think you did better than most other guys out there on KZbin.

[@Fl0ep]

That is one brave lady, I expected her to tell you to stop when you started poking her eye. She seemed very uncomfortable during this entire video and she never gave up on you, I think Samantha is the real winner in this video.

[@Simplebadger27]

honestly that was the best i've seen this challenge been done.

[@cfloster]

Wow I love her videos! So cool when two of my fave youtubers do videos together when I had no idea they knew each other!

[@Sophysoph]

Cannot believe this was only 3 years ago, Samantha is so different now

[@OliviaMingus]

As a fan of Samantha's work......this is fucking hilarious.

[@JoelGalilee]

Bold effort :) Well done.

[@davidng8732]

I'm a theatre actor and I can *never* do my eyeliner. Of course, the only logical thing to do in this case is to have someone else (our make-up artist) poke a pencil directly under my eyeballs.

[@Katierrez]

nice strong hands you have Michael.

[@FilbieTron]

Katie Gutierrez glad that I wasn't the only one who thinks so! Like woah, maybe he should be a hand model

[@annabellebearoh]

The eyeliner face grab is hilarious

[@KeaJei]

that outro sounds was awesome.

[@magicaeart]

I feel like her thoughts must've been "my poor brushes" half the time. But honestly, makeup is hard enough to put on yourself, even more so on others so you did okay for someone without previous experience.

[@romantheflash]

I am pretty impressed Michael, for doing this for the first time. It's not as bad as it could be....

[@mycharliequinn]

Oh Michael. You're so good at everything ever.

[@WHATRadioNickSembrat]

You did a million times better than I would've done

[@DoctorChaggers]

Loved the Bob Ross reference!

[@cloverhighfive]

I can't believe VEDA is still going. Wow. I'm amazed. Plus, congrats on sucking medium on putting up make-up. :)

[@6impossiblethings]

I liked that you took this pretty seriously. I've watched a few of these videos and it's like come on you know where that goes at least try.

[@mywonderwall27]

You did not do as bad as I thought you were going to. A+ for effort and happy face trees.

[@notacidnoralkaline]

Aw I love Sam! You put blush all over her face haha, don't quit your day job :P

[@pingwingwi]

I love Samantha's videos but I didn't recognize her in this video :o Loved it though. It was surprisingly not-that-bad.

[@amyamyamy17]

This must have been a while ago, Sam's hair hasn't been that color recently. I could totally feel her pain throughout though!

[@reidwilson6151]

I'm sure you have the artistry to excel in putting on women's makeup. It's cute that you're too afraid to let yourself go.

[@jessherselfable]

Oh Michael, if your dream is to be a makeup artist, you can do it! It just takes practice! Don't let the haters drag you down!

[@ZoromeLV]

Haha, my goodness xD The way you were grabbing at her head/face while applying the eyeliner!! I couldn't stop laughing!!!

[@SarahBecks713]

this is one of the better "boyfriend does my makeup" type challenges, but Jim Chapman still has you beat i think.

[@majkalambert]

she so beautiful

[@epsilon127]

I've been doing liquid eyeliner for years and that's still how I feel when I put it on

[@DominiqueLempares]

Bob Ross is my spirit animal. Great job, Michael!

[@ohheycrystalhey]

ahhhaa i'm not even 1 minute into the video and i'm already laughing endlessly at "let's apply foundation with this KNIFE..."

[@eatmarth]

this is the only kind of this video that I can actually sit though

[@pinksimplemiley]

HOLYSHITBALLS. I just realized that your Samantha is the same Samantha whose blog im in love with. Ive just never put 2 and 2 together haha

[@MollyBlueDawn]

This looks better than when i apply makeup to my own face. I find that it is best to have one's makeup done by a Drag Queen.

[@CourageousCaleigh]

I wouldn't even know what to do with all those brushes and makeup. I just use powder, mascara and sometimes foundation and blush. AND I put the foundation on with my hands! Which I know disgusts some people. On special occasions I will use eye liner, blush and eye shadow.

[@KaWulfe]

I don't do anything, I don't even know what you just said. I probably would do some things on special occasions if I good but I don't know how.

[@ashleyjota4258]

He did really well, actually!

[@saltypond]

Well. You're better at makeup than I am !

[@lisve]

Really, doing makeup on someone else is way harder that what it is applying it on yourself, so nice for a first try! Good job :)

[@tayzo]

when you were putting on the eyeliner i could not stop giggling

[@Waterflame]

This didn't turn out nearly as bad as I thought it was going to!

[@iliveinmyhead]

This didn't look overly voluntary. I hope she isn't still locked in your basement. People frown on that kind of thing.

[@Ahoykatieee]

Have your skills improved over the years? An updated makeup video would be awesome :)

[@superdooperdragon]

that's pretty good

[@bongiornoana]

I like your hands

[@TheDeliciousTacos]

Better than I usually do with liquid eyeliner. We could train you up into a regular StahrMilan.

[@klcarty]

I would love to see Samantha put make up on you

[@JasonArmond]

Practice makes perfect, you could probably get good at this. But I'd prefer you stick to videography purely for my own amusement.

[@thiefs_end]

I didn't realise it was Sam before I clicked the video haha. I didn't know that you guys were friends :)

[@Ohmz_i]

your performance was really underrated. And I don't mean that in a good way.

[@MollyBlueDawn]

There should be an eyeshadow colour called Holy Mother of Pink.

[@BelleZee1]

So much chemistry between you guys. You should date.

[@jawprince7720]

In the current day, we call this vlogging. No wonder people say quality degrades with time

[@hellosaera]

so is she doing your make-up next or...

[@MyDisturbingOctopus]

So... a couple weeks ago i had a dream michael and samantha got engaged, and for a while i didn't know whether or not it was real. there's no ring. it was definitely a dream.

[@Daisy-vv2yn]

I really think that's pretty good for a first attempt!

[@michaeladayvgs]

That's pretty much the extent of my own makeup and i've been doing it for years... Also possibly a weird thing to say, but you have really nice hands.

[@milkteamarwa]

you're as good as me

[@NylahK]

Hahahahaha oh Samantha, how I love thee!

[@MattieG95]

A valiant attempt Michael, but I don't think this is your true calling ;)

[@smallthetalk]

Michael, please fix the yellow thingy in the upper right corner in the end when the screen says Michael Aranda. Other than that you did pretty well. Reminded me a lot of when I was younger and used my mum's make up :D Not that I'm any better now, but finding stuff that matches my skin and is affordable is too damn difficult...

[@michaelaranda]

I put that yellow thing there on purpose, so it's already fixed!

[@smallthetalk]

***** so it was there the whole time and I just noticed it in the last videos? Because the reason I noticed was that I thought my screen is broken... But maybe I'm just getting slow, like my mum said...

[@michaelaranda]

smallthetalk I don't think it wast there for the first few times I used that logo, but it's been there a long time.

[@PuissantPike]

The sad thing is there are plenty of girls on campus whose makeup looks like this on a daily basis.

[@justtaylorr]

I have seen far worse outcomes with guys doing girl's make up, I was impressed! Also, hands. Dah. ahgah.

[@annienguyen2406]

from a makeup artist standard, i guess it's bad but i think he did pretty good

[@mandyallgood5480]

Hey its batalash!!!!

[@jaimie00]

So, this video proves that makeup artists are about as good at having someone do their makeup as a doctor is at being a patient. I think it went incredibly well considering you had no idea what you were doing. It would've been more fun if she had been more willing to enjoy herself and just have some silly fun.

[@RoseDust94]

I am impressed that wasn't that bad. Pretty sure my makeup looked worse in middle school.

[@JemLeavitt]

Michael Aranda you're out of control! Lol

[@janakhabouri8271]

Its my birthday tomorrow and it would totally make my year if you noticed me:$ Or make tomorrows video shitless, both are cool.

[@sadespair]

I wear eyeliner and lipstick..That's it. because I'm not much of a fan of stuff all over my face. I will say this, sometimes...I just wear lipstick. Eyeliner, takes too long. It depends on what I want. 95% I don't wear any make up. It's just easier to wear what is already on my face..like skin.

[@LittleWittleKitty]

Wow you’re friends with Sssssssssamanthaaaaaaaaa? 😭

[@izzleinatizzle]

the lashes weren't even that bad... go michael!

[@farihafaruk3062]

Innuendos are everywhere

[@justabvbgirl]

I'd let you do my makeup anyday

[@NylahK]

Low and behold, Michael isn't amazing at everything!

[@SpellboundSama]

Your attempts at applying eyeliner :')

[@ADXKAT]

Are you still dating?

[@soulxsisterx]

no,she has an about me video on her channel

[@calj27]

Alexandria Delikat-Hinze age gap was weird when they did though, hes 29 now shes 21

[@soulxsisterx]

Nah, that's pretty common

[@calj27]

alienmermaid would be now but didnt they date 4 or 5 years ago?

[@MyDisturbingOctopus]

wow. i like the way samantha does her makeup a lot better. but... you didn't make her look like satan, so that's a good sign.

[@tajunu]

you have really attractive hands. i hope that doesnt sound too creepy haha

[@Hannah6412]

a lot of dudes who do this challenge make it even shittier on purpose to either be funny or not appear effeminate. thanks for not doing that.
