Hi sisters James Charles here and welcome back to my youtube channel
Okay
I was trying to think of a really fun and good and cute and fresh way to intro last week's video into this week's video
But I literally cannot think of one. So, you know what? We're just gonna roll right into it
That's just how it be sometimes, um. In school, I was really really bad at history
I was in all AP classes. I worked really really hard of them
I got super good grades in every single class except for history. For some reason. I was so bad at it
I cannot remember anything
I always did horrible on the test and I literally fell asleep almost every single day. My AP history teacher probably hated me the absolute
Most shoutout Mr Owens, love you the most
Even though U.S and global history wasn't exactly my chick in high school
I do love learning a lot and in today's video
I thought it would be so much fun to kind of ditch all the current trends of YouTube the make up community and really go
back to our roots
But everything got started and my producer texted me late last night and told me that he found the link to the first-ever
makeup tutorial uploaded to YouTube back in 2006
In 2006. We were living in much simpler times
We didn't have a oopma loopma running our country
Which was lovely, and were listening to bops, and bops only; such as sexy back, hips don't lie,
Promiscuous
And bad day
Hannah Montana debuted on TV for the first time ever and a new emerging social media site where you could share videos called
YouTube was bought out by Google in only it's second year for 1.65 billion dollars. YouTube started to grow exponentially fast
with people broadcasting themselves with new videos every single day from things such as
iMovie projects, school presentations, different lip sync videos to huge songs at the time
And of course makeup tutorials as well
So I went on a sister search to find the first-ever makeup tutorial and it was uploaded by Adrianne K. Nelson on March 29th 2006
Literally that is
12 years ago. Oh my god in 2006 I was
7 years old
I was like literally playing baseball. Ooh
scared of that. A few months ago here on YouTube
There was a huge trend of people following different peoples makeup tutorials. And for today's YouTube video
I am going to be following her tutorial and seeing how I finish- Why did I just hit myself?
-seeing how my finished glam looks. Hello. What is this video? I have the video pulled up right here on my phone
It is called makeup lessons look hot in five minutes or less.
Oh my god, this video was three minutes and 50 seconds long
(Isn't that crazy?)
I'm- what is she gonna do in only 3 minutes and 50 seconds?
Okay, so I clearly have not seen this video yet
And I also don't know what products are gonna be used either because my editor
Requested that I don't see them until she pulls them out which makes me very very nervous
I really want to go into this with an open mind because the makeup industry of course is always changing the products and the styles
That we use today. We're definitely not used a very very long time ago
And of course I am able to teach and inspire people every day now
But I had to learn from the people before me so without further ado
Let's go ahead and watch how to look hot in 5 minutes or less and see if I look hot
By the end of the video, let's get started
All right, here we go I think I'm ready I'm gonna press play
Make up vlog number one
Love that iMovie title already
Love this countdown. Oh
Hey Camille, okay
Ooh love that shot
Adrienne. Love that freeze frame. What is this? Oh, we're already right into it, prep with moisturizer
Okay. All right. So it looks like Adrienne is going to be clamming Camille today. Love this collab
So she's first starting out by prepping with moisturizer
Which is the same thing that I start off with as well so, so far so good
She didn't list what moisturizer she's using either. Really rude
So I'm gonna use the Tatcha water cream. You guys know, this is my all-time favorite
Tatcha was definitely not around in 2006, but it is here now. So we're gonna use that because it's good and fresh
Let's go to step two
No, did she just apply it? Oh
My god apply a foundation to t-zone
Only the t-zone really on me "Miss can't match foundation to save my life". She's also using her hands. Oh
She's using the Bobbi Brown oil-free foundation so I apparently have that, it's still a thing. So I guess I'm going to squirt this. Oh
God, I'd probably need to take that first Oh, shake it for a real one. It's literally water
I'm scared. What is this?
This is so wrong No, okay applying this only to my t-zone
I can't do this
This is like the lightest coverage foundation I've ever seen, that just disappeared. Wait, Beauty Blenders literally didn't exist yet
That's why she's using her hands
This is back when like people - makeup artists - used those triangle sponges that you get from like CVS
I used to use those every single morning when I would try to cover up a pimple using my mom's like dermablend concealer
Whoa, let's see if this will cover my five o'clock shadow
No, I mean it looks like I'm wearing nothing, like if we're being
...honest. Like, is that it? Am I done with my foundation now?
What! I guess that is our foundation like all applied
I am praying that the next step is like a Tarte shape tape before Tarte shape tape even existed because I need some full coverage
And I need it now
No!
This girl took two squirts of foundation into her fingers
Rubbed it in for a real one into only the t-zone and is now already setting it in place with a sheer finish powder
And no concealer. This video is how to look hot in five minutes or less. You literally already need to be perfect
to use these steps
I'm scared. Does she put this all over?
Okay, at least she's putting the powder all over
Jesus. Gonna dip into my Bobbi Brown sheer finish powder in the shade pale yellow. Wow
My editor was really trying to turn me into flashback mary here. Hello. Okay and just apply this all
Over is there an even anything? Okay, at least there's powder on the brush
My face looks exactly the same as it did before
Conspiracy theory. Hey guys, makeup tutorials are all a scam. Are we done?
Okay. All right. Moving on to the next step I guess
Okay. Ooh okay brows, let's go
Okay wait, so we have a tip and it says combing down brows
First makes it easier to find the natural shape of your brow. True. Okay, great. So shoot the beauty guru
Okay, so she's using an angled brush and a brow powder. I
I love this background music
That's it?
In this video the artist is using a Stila brow duo which apparently does not exist anymore r.i.p
So i'm just gonna be using a regular Anastasia Beverly Hills brow powder. ABH brow powders are really bomb
But I personally hate doing my brows with powder and an angled brush
I'm much prefer pencil, but I'm gonna try to make this work today
so I guess I'm just gonna start off by brushing my brow hairs downwards to find my natural shape and then
Literally just filling them and she gave no other instruction
so
That's good. I literally only know how to do my brows properly from trial and error and making them look the absolute worst
so if I was watching this tutorial back in
2006 before I knew how to do makeup at all when I was literally 7 years old
I probably would have made my eyebrows look the absolute worst. So Adrienne sister, I'm gonna need you to get on it
The eyebrow looks gross. That's so ugly. Okay. Let's do it again. Gonna brush the hairs downwards.
Oh this looks gross!
Okay, let's pray she's going to clean them up
Of course not. Great! I guess that is our brows all done. Looking in the mirror
I don't hate the way the brow powder looks solely for the texture
I feel like they look really really fluffy and nice and almost kind of natural which is definitely a nice break from my like pretty intense
Brows, but I will say regardless of the texture. I do like a much more clean look and not concealing underneath them is ummmm
Sister scary. Concealing underneath them is very much a step that I'm used to and kind of rely on in my makeup routine
Being that I can kind of be a little bit messier with my brows and then fix them and  make them absolutely perfect
Later on, which is not an option. So that is um
Great. Okay, so
Now we're gonna use a cream blush and this is NARS in the shade Riviera and this still exists, love that. I already powdered my face
Excuse me that's like against the laws of makeup, okay
guess I'm just gonna like take my fingers and rub it on for a real one and then
That did nothing this is literally doing nothing because my face is already red from not using foundation all over it like Hello?
I mean it kind of looks pretty I guess.. I'm gonna.. maybe put some on my nose too. Okay so, what's next?
Whoa
Okay we're on eyeshadow and it says... Looks like we're doing a brown smokey eye that took a turn
Whoa, literally foundation in the t-zone a cream blush and a powder brow and now she wants to throw on a brown smokey eye
girl
Hello - are we-?
What? Um, it says use the Mary Kay eyeshadow in the shade fig
I do not have any Mary Kay because I
Don't have any middle aged mothers in my life that are gonna sell it to me
So I need to find a taupey brown shade
I'm just gonna apply a light brown shade right to my lid and I'm gonna use my morphe M433
morphe was not around back then, but it is now so use code "James" for 10% off
She didn't put on any eyeshadow primer
this is just going right on like the oily sweaty lid unless I was supposed to put foundation there
Adrienne didn't tell me so I'll guess we're just gonna do it
It looks like she kept this brown shade focused right underneath the crease on at the actual lid
So that's what we were going to do
Wow
She wants me to put a shimmer shade in my crease
*Sigh*
Adrienne. It looks like she blended out her brown smoky eye using a bronze shimmer shade in the crease, which I am
A little bit scared to do but you know what? We're just gonna trust it
I know that typically in regular glam makeup a satin and metallic shades are never used in the crease
But it is a very popular trend in runway and of course there are no rules to makeup. So let's just try it out
Maybe it'll look good
hmmmmmmmmmmm
No, I was right it doesn't look good
I mean, it's like there I guess. Maybe if I apply a little more brown to the lid
EW. Every other step I've been okay with, this is where I draw the line
This is why you do not put shimmers in your crease. That looks so bad. What's next?
Okay lower lashline
Okay, same thing, fine. Shes using a pencil brush I'm gonna grab the morphe E36 and just the same brown
eyeshadow from before and sweep that below
This look literally is like not even bad aside from this. Like what is this? Okay, that actually looks a little better
I'm kind of fixed it. Oh, I just- I forgot to do my other eye
Whoopsies. Guess I should probably do that now. Okay, not even gonna lie. I'm really liking how this is turning out so far
it's kind of like coming out very like a runway editorial-esk which I don't think was supposed to happen, but
Kind of down for it. Not even gonna lie. Let's see what's next
Okay
Clinique high-impact mascara. Down, let's see. Oh my god. This looks familiar
I feel like my mom used to use this like a million years ago. Sorry mom
And then
Tip; add volume to bottom lashes by using a square brush to apply mascara
A square br- like a concealer brush? Okay. Let's see what we got. How do I even do that, do I like...
Does she literally just rub it on there?
Yeah
Okay. Wait I don't like this at all, using a brush makes it really hard to actually like coat the lashes
I usually have very very very long bottom lashes and this is not doing them justice. I'm gonna do the regular mascara wand on the other eye just you guys can see the difference because
I don't like this tip.
Oh my god, yeah look yeah don't apply your mascara using a square brush. Sorry, Adrianne. Okay. What is next?
Oh my god, she's literally on a flip phone she answered a flip phone in the middle of her makeup session
Haha me! So she's using the Laura Mercier pink quartz lip glaze and I have the same one right here
Once again, this is one of the products that they're still making
So we're just gonna go ahead and apply that to my lips.
Oh this tastes so bad
Okay, kind of a pretty color not even gonna lie, okay, what's next
I can't get over music
*dab*
She's done
She's done wait, whoa, we have no highlighter. No setting spray. We did not use concealer
Okay, I guess we're literally done. That was the fastest I've ever done my makeup in my entire life okay low-key though
Kind of looks pretty like hello. I will say miss Adrienne and Camille kind of snapped because I feel
Really pretty not even gonna lie. As soon as I saw this video being only three minutes and 50 seconds
I knew something was up and I pretty much lost hope completely when I saw "apply foundation to only the t-zone" using your fingers
Whoo child you guys know, I love a good a full coverage glam. I love my beauty blenders
I love packing it on with concealer and powder and this is definitely a very very light coverage look today
I will say that for sure my under eye bags are
There and my forehead and cheeks are definitely a little bit red
But but I do feel like I could walk out with this base routine as like a your face, but better type of face
It's kind of funny though because this like foundation base is what a lot of people strive for when getting ready quickly in the morning
Including myself you guys know I talk about this quite often
I really struggle with doing light coverage makeup looks because I'm so used to packing on the foundation and the contour and the highlighter but
Contour literally did not become a trend until Kim Kardashian and highlighter didn't really become a huge craze until JLo both being a few years later
So this base was very very typical for the time and it does look very very beautiful
But I will say it kind of definitely relies on
Somebody's face that already has a lot of structure to it and pretty good skin because on some faces especially for you guys
Who are makeup lovers it might look way too light of coverage as for the brow and eye region
I will admit I was a little bit skeptical of the brow powder at first
Mostly because I used to use it a long time ago back when I was used to like the James Charles brick eyebrows
Which are scary thoughts and I have not used them in a hot minute
And for the eyeshadow, I feel like the eyeshadow came out
Okay in the end it is definitely much more of like an editorial type look which is clearly not the look we were going for
I still stand behind the kind of makeup law that exists in the current day
Which is do not put a shimmer in the crease because it does not look good
I'm scared of the lack of powder that we used in today's look
I know everybody kind of lives for that like dewy skin moment
But I'm literally gonna sweat this off in three minutes flat this foundation was basically water and I literally tapped this on like three times and called it a day
Scared overall, even though I would definitely not use the majority of these products in steps in my everyday makeup routine today
It was really really fun to kind of take a trip down memory lane and kind of see what really started the makeup industry online
And see how everything has changed. It's really cool to see the growth of the makeup industry over the past 12 years on YouTube
I mean
I literally just watched a video of two people sitting in front of a black backdrop
with lights that looked like it was it'll be a table lamp a
Crappy quality camera, iMovie editing and just luxury piano music in the background
fast-forwarding 12 years later to
Now a lot of beauty youtubers including myself have full-on studios in their houses with very very expensive lights that people use on real movie
Sets and expensive cameras and lenses and monitors and it's truly been so cool to be part of this journey
Even if it's just for a little bit, I'm super excited to see it where everything goes even 12 years from now
Alright you guys I think that is all I have for this video today
I did not realize it was going to be this short
I really really hope you enjoyed this little trip down memory lane and got to kind of see where the makeup community has come
