00:00You use this to put your eye shadow on?
00:03Hey guys, it's me Anne, and this is Beauty With Me.
00:06Mother's Day is just around the corner.
00:08In fact, it is just a week away,
00:10and I am lucky enough to have my mom here in studio.
00:14The last time we filmed an episode together,
00:16it was the DIY skin care challenge,
00:18and we did masks together.
00:19Do you remember that?
00:20Today, we are upping the ante.
00:22We are going to swap makeup routines for three days.
00:27But first, don't forget to subscribe.
00:29Hit the little red button down below.
00:31Beauty With Me comes out every single Monday at 11 a.m.
00:40So this is pretty much everything that I'd wear on any given day.
00:46I switch it up on the eyes and the lips,
00:47but it is this, usually, this my product.
00:52Well, my.
00:58There's like one, two, three, four, five, six, seven products there.
01:02How many do I have?
01:03One, two, three, four, five, six, seven products there.
01:04One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
01:0717.
01:08How long does your makeup routine usually take you in the morning?
01:11Less than five minutes.
01:15Well, it takes me around 15 to 20.
01:18So this is all of my makeup that I wear on a pretty daily basis.
01:26Do you feel like my makeup style has changed a lot since I was a kid?
01:29Oh, yes, yes, yes.
01:31Definitely.
01:32In what way?
01:33Well, you hardly put on makeup when you were in school.
01:36Like in middle school and high school, I wore like a little bit of like,
01:39remember I went through a phase where I only wore bottom eyeliner?
01:42Yeah.
01:42I went through a Bare Minerals foundation phase.
01:44Remember that?
01:45You bought me?
01:46You went for prom.
01:46It's Bare Minerals and Clinique.
01:48Yeah.
01:48For prom.
01:49So how about your makeup style?
01:51Did you ever wear foundation?
01:53No.
01:54Ever.
01:55All right.
01:55Well, this is a lot.
01:57I know.
01:58You probably don't remember everything.
02:00No, I don't.
02:01So I wrote you a little step-by-step routine, a quick 14 steps, and you're out the door.
02:11Did you make me a little recipe too?
02:14Yes, I did.
02:15Look.
02:16How many steps are there?
02:18It's five.
02:20So tomorrow is a brand new day, and you're going to have to do this look.
02:23Let me keep this then.
02:25Yeah, you can keep this.
02:26If you don't have it, you will forget.
02:28Let me take a picture.
02:29Oh, you can have a favor.
02:31Okay.
02:31All right, without further ado, we will see you guys tomorrow.
02:35Hi, guys.
02:37Day one of the Mom Swap Makeup Challenge.
02:42I'm just going to put some moisturizer on my face because nothing else goes on it.
02:47You have to put foundation on.
02:49Oh, okay.
02:50Let's see.
02:51Which one's first?
02:53This is overwhelming.
02:57My personal makeup artist.
02:59Next up is concealer.
03:00And I usually just put it under my eyes and around my nose.
03:02Where do you feel like you want to put it?
03:06Nowhere.
03:12So what I like to do is I like to just squeeze a little bit from the top, tap, and
03:16brush it
03:17onto my cheeks and blend it out like that.
03:22I'm going to start my routine.
03:23It starts with eyebrows, right?
03:26Right.
03:45So we just finished doing our makeup swap.
03:51I finished in like two minutes.
03:54This is the look.
03:56How long would you say yours took?
03:58I don't know.
03:5920?
04:00No, it was like 25 minutes.
04:02It was 25, but it was fun.
04:04I think for me, mostly, it's just like I feel really weird without mascara and without
04:09the cat eye.
04:10You're right.
04:11I wear mascara every single day.
04:13So I'm very curious to see if anyone at work will notice.
04:16Okay.
04:16Well, today I didn't do too much.
04:18I just walked, uh, walked along Fulton Street, but on the way there, I had two people said
04:25hi to me.
04:26So I'm wondering, hmm, is it just me?
04:30Or is it Mian's makeup?
04:32I don't know.
04:34Gotta say the day was pretty uneventful.
04:37I got a couple of comments about how I should blend my eyeshadow more.
04:42One thing that I did like was that I could touch my face and like nothing's gonna come
04:45off on it.
04:46Hey guys.
04:46So it is day two of the challenge and this is, uh, what I'm working with today.
04:52I stayed up really late last night.
04:56So I'm kind of puffy and this is the time that I would usually call upon a little bit
05:00of extra concealer, um, a little bit of highlighter, but my mom doesn't wear any of those things.
05:07So my face is completely exposed.
05:11This is the makeup done.
05:13Uh, it's Mian's makeup.
05:15It took a little bit, uh, longer than my usual thing, but it's way faster than the first day.
05:21Right?
05:23I think I can get used to this.
05:25Hi guys.
05:26It is the third and final day of the mom makeup swap.
05:30Yeah, and it's my last day here.
05:33I know.
05:34Sad.
05:35Today she's rocking a bit of a more intense look.
05:39I'll bring you closer.
05:40Let's close your eyes.
05:42So she's got some blue eyeshadow on top, some red on the bottom, and it's actually kind
05:48of inspired by a look that I did on my Instagram a few months ago.
05:52I'm really into the blue eyeshadow and the red lip look, which is kind of similar to what
05:57you might have worn in the 80s, huh?
05:58Mm-hmm.
05:59But how overall have you liked the experience switching makeup with me?
06:04It still takes a little bit more time than usual.
06:07Uh, I don't particularly like the foundation because I don't think it makes a difference.
06:13I like the, um, I like the different colored, um, uh, eyeshadow.
06:19That's like the most fun part.
06:20Right.
06:21And, uh, and she's taught me this new trick to, um, to bring out my cheekbones, which is...
06:27With the highlighter?
06:28Yeah, with the highlighter.
06:28You like the highlighter?
06:29I like the highlighter.
06:30I gave her, I gave her a new highlighter that she could use.
06:33Well, for me, I think I'm very excited to go back to wearing more like this and playing
06:38with more colors because I think it's a, it's definitely a way that I express myself.
06:42And I really just want to be able to, I have so much makeup, right?
06:48Yeah, you do.
06:49Yeah.
06:49I want to be able to use it.
06:51Yep.
06:51Well, that was the whole challenge.
06:53I hope you guys enjoyed it and we'll see you next time.
06:56Hopefully we can get her in another video soon.
06:58Okay.
