Best-of-the-Week: YouTube Makeup Videos

This week had a theme of ‘new products.’ Whether it was testing the wear of an (insane) $120 concealer, trying out a face full of new-to-retail products to an oldie-but-goodie-making-a-comeback setting powder, there’s definitely something for everyone in this roundup of my top three favorite YouTube makeup videos!

This has probably been the funniest ‘WTF’ video I’ve watched from Tati yet. Basically, in this series, Tati tests out super-high-end makeup to see if it’s worth the price. I can’t tell you why it was so funny, but you just need to see what happens to her makeup in this video. Just wow…

So many rave about the Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder (including me), but this makeup artist staple by RCMA is hitting the YouTube world in a big way. It’s essentially the same product but for a fraction of the price. Wayne Goss is a pro makeup artist and his tips/product recommendations are always spot-on. When I finish my LM powder, I’ll be trying this instead (and probably putting it in my LM powder container).

Casey tries out a ton of new products (11 to be exact) – high-end to drugstore – in this video. I like these because it sort of gives you a quick idea of how everything applies. Did anything catch your eye that you want to try? Let me know.
