Hi Sisters! James Charles here and welcome back to my Youtube channel.
For today's video: I have a very, very special guest, my beautiful mother, sister Christie B. I am so excited to have her here for today's video.
If you guys missed the last video, my entire family is currently out here visiting me in LA right now and it is so amazing and so much fun.
In our last video we filmed together, my mom and my dad actually competed against each other in a episode of Beauty Battles.
It was so crazy and so much fun. If you guys missed that video, you have to go click right up here, right above my mom's face and go watch it!
Thank you guys for all the love and support on the video.
And so many of the comments were asking me to put my mother in full glam and I am so excited because I have only done her makeup a few times.
And every single time she has complained because it is too much, too full coverage,
but she's going to suck it up and for today's video we are going to give sister Christie B. a sister full glam make-over.
(Christie speaking) I watch James glam himself or his friends all the time and
I'm very excited to watch him glam me, his mom, with more mature skin.
(Christie speaking) Let's get started.
(Intro music playing)
I'm gonna start off with my mom's face today by moisturizing her skin using the Tatcha water cream
If you guys saw my makeup tips and trick video from a few weeks ago,
I talked about the importances of using a moisturizer before your makeup routine
My mom does have more mature skin but we are obviously going to be putting on a whole lot of makeup today,
so we really want to make sure that all the makeup goes on nice and smoothly
And doesn't look like cakey and textured because that's never the goal
For foundation today, I'm gonna go in with the Too Faced Born this Way Foundation.
You guys know this is my all time favorite and my mom does have oily skin like me as well so this
will work really, really well with her skin type
And, like we were saying, she does have more mature skin so this is going to be a more full coverage foundation
which I would normally not do,
but, sister Christie does love a really good full coverage base, right?
Yes.
And that is because she has- oh, sorry.
Vitiligo.
Yeah, well- (laughing)
Do you want to tell the sisters a little bit more about what Vitiligo is and how it has, kind of, like, affected you?
Vitiligo is an autoimmune disease and there isn't any cure;
it doesn't hurt and it's not contagious,
But it is white spots that continue to increase as the years go on.
But I've learned to embrace my spots and love my skin no matter what.
(Laughing) As we're putting on a full coverage foundation over top of it today.
But I- right- I also feel more confident when it's covered up.
Uh huh.
Do you know that I just started using a Beauty Blender, like, two weeks ago?
What?!
I used to, until two weeks ago, just use my finger to put on my foundation.
(James gasping) I'm scared of that. "Ugh".
I'm proud of you for making the transition.
Yes. I actually do like it.
Yeah, isn't it great?
It took me a while to get used to it.
You're so brave.
Oh, thank you very much. (Laughing)
So I asked you sisters to send in questions while me and my mom are doing our makeup today so we can, like,
talk about stories and me as a child and all sorts of fun and embarrassing things.
So, let's do that, I guess.
Sister June asked, "Do you think James is more like his mom or his dad,
and in what ways do you think he is like you?"
James has a very strong personality, he always has.
His dad has a strong personality.
Okay, so how am I like you?
You're... Kind. Sometimes.
(James gasps) Excuse me!
I remember when you were younger, you'd
go to school and the teachers thought you were the best thing since sliced bread
and I'm like, "We're talking about the same James?"
Because you always gave us a run for our money when you were younger.
Yup.
You were very sassy.
Uh huh, nothing has changed.
... but never to teachers.
Uh huh.
And you're brilliant, like your father.
Daddy is very very
smart, just like you are. Dad
definitely did not get the (Hey!)
(Heeeey) the *chuckles* the smart
genes from sister Christie. Take out all the good
personality genes that matter.
And you get your looks from me too ..... right ....... good answer
Ok so you were just talking about how i was a
very very "spirited child",  as you always like to say
so speaking of, sister Alyssa asks
"Can you tell one story of James from when he was
younger that you just knew he was gonna be....... me"
Just one story? Cause I have lots of stories
Oh okay....
You did not sleep through the night until you were two and a half years old
Your pediatrician recommended the Ferber method
which was let then cry for a few minutes and go in and continue to increase the time
so they realise they're not gonna get anything  from crying
and they'll eventually soothe themselves back to sleep on their own
you were so determined that you continued to scream and I would leave the house
in my car because I couldn't stand listening to you cry
I would come back an hour or two later and you were still crying and, it didn't work for you.
So daddy and I took you to the pediatrician and asked what was going on and she said most kids would've given up.
She said "James is not going to be an easy kid to parent, but he is going to do great things in life"
Ohh,
She said that
Really?
She did
Wow
Angie asks, "What is your favorite memory together with you and James?"
Spending time on Cape Cod. Every summer, we would rent a house on the cape and hang out on the beach.
Well, that's not true. I didn't sit on the beach, I had to chase after you.
'Cause you literately would go to the different people and start chatting with them.
And you were like 2.
Now, you're contouring my nose, meaning to make it look more snatched, thinner?
mhmm
we love a good snatched nose here on the James Charles youtube channel.
You have like a good and skinny nose, and you definitely gave Ian your nose. So rude.
'Cause I did not get that.
Whose nose do you think you have?
I don't know.
What's the matter with your nose?
I don't know, nothing really.
It's just not as nice as mine.
Yeah!
While my mom's face is baking in place, I am so excited 'cause now it's finally time for the eyebrows
and as much as I love my beautiful mother, her eyebrows need help. Badly.
She has like three eyebrow hairs, the ones that are there are like, 70 miles apart.
I just- I'm very, very excited about this today. We're gonna give her some nice and slayed and snatched sister brows.
I can't wait.
Yeah, me either.
Although, I think I put them on nicely, when I do.
I'm not used to -
You literally take a brow pencil and draw one line.
I know! I'm not used to having a full brows.
So
Clearly.
I never had a lot of eyebrow hairs.
And I never even penciled them in until
probably a few years ago.
Ever. Really?
Yeah, and what a difference eyebrows make.
Yeah, they change your face.
They really do.
Definitely learned that from you.
Well yeah my eyebrows have definitely underwent
intense transformation for the better on this
on this YouTube makeup journey.
So, my mom doesn't really have a lot of
eyebrow hairs, so that actually helps us a lot,
because we have a lot to work with, and we
kinda put them where ever we want.
Which, is great. So, I'm starting off this eyebrow
by kind of mapping it out. So, I'm
really extending it the front of her brow like
a good, probably, half an inch in.
Your basic eyebrow should start like right outside
of the bridge of your nose.
We're gonna extend it a little bit in and make it a little bit
longer. Then I'm just following her natural brow shape
and thickness to fill in the rest of the brow. And I'm
just drawing really really light strokes because
she does have blonde hair and we obviously don't want
them to look like really really dark brown.
That would just look wonky.
When I get to the end of the brow I'm just extending that brow
outwards, continuing with that arch
and drawing in a tail
at the end to really finish up her brow shape
and to make it a complete and full brow
Yesterday when I did your brows I had like a gel
Would you recommend me using a gel on them James or not
The point of brow gel is really to set the brow hairs in place
and kind of push them in the direction that you want them to go
Once you already have your brows filled in.
So brow gel is really gonna be more for people like me
who have a lot of brow hairs
and if you do fill them in you wan't them to all lie
in like the right direction
but for someone like you who doesn't really have as many brow hairs
brow gel is definetly not nescessary.
Ok, good to know.
The trick is to make the other one look... similar.
