Michelle is a great artist. She’s working on the Michael Kors makeup for fashion week. The videos where she’s using those little wands were there to help basic people who had basic tools. Hence, Basic smoney eye video. Using fingers? Makeup artists uses fingers all the time, it warms up the foundation. She has come a long way, and not she’s finally getting creditials. I disagree, her videos are getting more and more popular. She’s the only guru on youtube that puts out more effort in editing. They’re like mini movies.

Not totally related but …

Michelle’s cool but I don’t think she’s that great of a make up artist. She’s only up there because she’s been online for so long and a lot of people knows her. if she just started, her videos won’t be as popular as they are now.

It’s great to see her grow though… I remember when she first started her make up videos and she was still using her fingers or those little wands that comes in packaging to apply all her shadows.

Michelle Phan is annoying and I watch her videos to find out what exactly not to buy.

i didn’t buy the clarisonic because of oprah, it was people like michelle who recommended it. oh and michelle came up with the electric toothbrush cleansing method way before clarisonic became a household staple. i dont think people like michelle is a band wagon opportunist. she is beyond a beauty guru.

oprah is 100% responsible and their marketing team,
anyone else mentioned just jump on a band wagon as an opportunist

The marketing budget was already done, anyone who adopted it is simply impressionable and actually wrong as the better product has already been identified
