Cool Stuff Twelve: Makeup Tutorials

AHHH LATE AGAIN so this will be a quick one.

There are some times, as I get angry over shoe shopping or had to ask other people to braid my hair for me every night of my high school’s spring musical… when I wonder if there is some universal class in girly ways that I missed out on somewhere. One of these categories of feminine failure for me is makeup, which for most of my life I struggled to figure out how to apply correctly (still a work in progress). Luckily there is the internet, and YouTube is full of tutorials on all sorts of things, including lots of women who do makeup tutorials. The most popular of which is definitely professional makeup artist Michelle Phan, who is one of the most subscribed YouTubers (and is the most subscribed in the “Gurus” category). She has a lot of videos on everything from buying beauty products, to everyday tips, to these elaborate costume-y tutorials for Halloween and special occasions.

Her videos are professional yet friendly, and she’s someone who has used her fame online to get job opportunities and such offline.
