- [Together] Hi sisters!
- James Charles here, and welcome back
to my YouTube channel!
As you guys can see, I'm joined today
with a very iconic sister special guest.
- I'm a famous beauty guru.
- Jenna Marbles!
You guys, today we are
here for an episode of
James' Ratchet Beauty Salon, and I am
so beyond excited, because
I have wanted to do
this video together for so long now.
You're one of my favorite
YouTubers literally
of all time, and I have so many,
come on!
I literally have been
watching you since I was
a little kid.
And this means so much,
and I'm already so excited
for you to be here today.
- [Jenna] I love you.
- I love you more!
We have so much that I want
to talk to you about today,
and you also,
I'm serious here.
On your channel, with Jenna's
Ratchet Beauty Salon ...
- Yes.
- With some pretty good makeup tips.
- Thank you.
- Questionable sometimes.
- Thank you.
- But pretty good.
- Thank you.
- Yeah.
- Yup.
- So I figured ...
- I'm a professional.
- You are definitely a professional.
We just had our Valentine's
Day video-versary.
- Happy video-versary, James.
- Because last year, you
did a video following
my Valentine's Day makeup
tutorial, which I was so shook by
because I think the first
time we met was at Playlist.
- You were ...
- It was.
- So tall, so gorgeous, legs for days,
and I was like, oh my
god, that's James Charles.
- What? You walked by and you
were like, hey James Charles.
And I was like, oh my god
that was Jenna Marbles.
I was like walking in
and you were walking out,
and it was literally just that,
a quick three-second moment,
and I was like ...
Oh my god.
And then you did the video
following my Valentine's Day
makeup tutorial, and I
think I was only at like
2 million subscribers at
that point, so I was shook.
- I love you.
- But I was so excited and so happy,
because, like I said, I've
been watching you forever,
you've inspired me and
so many other people,
and I figured for today's video--
- I'm gonna cry.
- We should get together,
and open James' Ratchet Beauty Salon.
- Yes.
- Talk about all things
YouTube, the beauty community,
love, I feel like we should
definitely talk about
finding me a boyfriend today.
- James! James!
- Because it's been quite
the trending topic for you.
- You literally just posted
a video that was like
I'm gonna be sad and alone forever.
- Yeah.
- James.
- Well it's true. I didn't lie.
- Boy, I swear to god.
- I feel like we have so
many things to talk about,
should we just jump right in?
- Yeah, let's just jump into it.
- Okay great.
(upbeat music)
We're gonna start off with
two different foundations,
and I'm not even sure
which one we're gonna do,
I think we're gonna try mixing together
Fenty and Too Faced.
We know that it's a trend
for me to not be able
to do this very well so,
we're not really expecting much here.
But everything else will be good.
- It's okay James.
I never match anything because
I'm always different shades
of fake tan, so.
- Same!
I actually just got tanned
again for the first time
in a while a few days ago, so I am feeling
my bronze fantasy.
My foundation actually
matches pretty good today.
- You look beautiful.
Ten million times even
more beautiful in person.
- Oh thanks angel.
- You're welcome.
- Okay, so I am so
excited for today's video
because I have wanted
to do this forever now.
- Because you just want
to do a nice lovely look
on mature skin?
- Yes.
You've been on YouTube for
a very, very long time now.
- Yeah.
- Like one of the OGs. Day one.
How many years has it been?
- I've been making videos on
Jenna Marbles for nine years.
Almost ten.
- Oh my god.
- Yeah.
- That's so cool.
And you still love it as
much as you did before?
- Yeah, I mean it has its ups and downs,
some days it's the best
thing in the world,
and some days it's really
stressful but yeah I love it.
- How have you been able to stay motivated
and inspired to keep making
content after ten years?
Because I've only been at
this for two and I'm like ...
I constantly am like, oh
god what am I gonna do next?
- Yeah well.
I feel like that never goes away.
- Yeah.
- I just have a schedule,
and it forces you to create
on a regular basis,
whether you like it or not.
It's your job, go do it.
- Yeah.
- And have fun.
Do the best you can.
Some days you're gonna kill
it, and some days you're not,
so, just be with yourself
through the good days
and bad days, you know?
- Right.
How would you say the platform has changed
over the past ten years of being on it?
- Oh so much.
When I started it was weird.
It was just a weird place
for people to post whatever.
- Yeah.
- Like on my first channel,
I had a bunch of videos
like from college that
were school projects.
Now you hear kids being
like, I wanna grow up
and be a YouTuber.
- Which is so cool.
- Yeah.
- But also scary.
- Totally.
- But it's been really
cool to watch the evolution
of Jenna Marbles and see you
here still making content
today, and just like ...
- Awe, thanks.
- Killing it.
It's really cool.
- I have always thought, like
this will probably end someday
and that'll be okay, but
I still have a job, so.
- Right.
- So it's really amazing.
Ten years ago when I started,
it was kind of difficult
for anybody to write something
nice about YouTubers.
- Oh yeah.
- Because it was a joke.
- Well even still, I
just got back from London
a few weeks ago when I was traveling there
and I got mauled.
- I saw that.
- By the British media.
- Although I've heard like
from some of the UK YouTubers
they get treated a lot worse over there.
- Yeah.
- But here it's getting better, you know,
if you work with a traditional celebrity
in the past sometimes
it might have been like
oh a producer has brought
you on to be the social media
person but the talent doesn't really know
who you are--
- Right.
- Or care.
- Or care.
- But they're still nice.
- Right.
- But now it's different.
People know who you are and they value
what you bring to the table.
- Which is exciting.
You kind of started on YouTube
because a lot of your
videos all went viral.
Like, really, really insane crazy views
which is super cool to look back at like
all the old drunk makeup tutorials, and
literally when you were
sitting in your bathroom
and filming on ...
- My laptop.
- I don't even know what, yeah the laptop.
- It was a laptop.
And I would film and
edit at the same time.
- What?
- Yeah.
I would open up my laptop,
and shoot on iMovie,
and edit it as I was filming it.
Yeah.
- Why?
- I don't know, that's what I did.
I didn't have a camera.
- Yeah.
- So I was just filming
it with what I had.
Yeah, all of my raw files
are me just like ...
Click ...
And then another thing!
Like half the time my arm's
coming in and out of frame,
because I'm stopping it.
Yeah. I didn't have a camera.
- That's like everything to me, though.
That's so cool to see the evolution.
So what would you say is
what the differences is
between going viral then versus now.
- I feel like ten years ago,
when something went viral
it means that everybody saw it.
- Right.
- Whereas now you could
go viral on Facebook,
you could go viral on Instagram,
or the word is sort of lost a little bit
of what that means, because
so many people's attention
is in a million different places.
- Is in a million places, yeah.
- So, I feel like things
go viral less often,
but more often at the same time.
- Yeah. That's a good way to put it.
There's so many more
people that have access
to everything now.
I've had a few videos
now pass like 20 million,
which has been so crazy.
And they're always ones
that I least expect, too.
- That's how the internet works.
- That's how the internet works!
But even then, I'm like,
oh well okay 20 million.
But it's like 20 million
people watched that.
That is insane.
- I especially relate to the
videos that you feel like
are whatever are the ones
that people really like
and respond to, and the ones
that you put all your energy
into and you really
enjoy, people are like,
hmm, I didn't like this one.
Like shit, sorry.
I don't know what you guys want.
- My second most viewed video
on my channel is literally
my FAKE Palette video where
I bought the fake palette
from Santee Alley and reviewed it,
I hated how the video
turned out, I was like
this is gonna be a horrible
video, I don't even know
if I want to post this, and
it's at like 25 million views
now.
- Yeah.
That's how it always works.
- I was like, what?
- The green screen video that I filmed
literally after I was done
filming it, I laid on the couch
like in full green-face and I was like
Julien, I'm not gonna
upload it, it's terrible,
I'm just gonna tell people
that I ruined my videos.
- That's one of my
favorite videos from you.
- But I was so defeated
by the end of that,
I was like, this was a horrible video.
I hated it.
- Really?
- Yeah.
- I'm just applying a light
coat of powder all over.
- Oh I feel so powdered, I'm baking.
- I wanna use a little
bit of a lighter bell
because we definitely put
on some foundation, duh
and concealer, and I don't
want anything to look
really cakey.
- Cake me.
- What are some of your
favorite channels to watch
on YouTube?
- I watch a lot of beauty videos.
- Do you actually?
- I really like them.
- Okay.
- I always have.
That's the channels that I first got into,
Juicy Star, oh my god.
- Yes.
- I loved the old school beauty gurus,
and I'd never seen so many
people with on-suite bathrooms
in their videos in my life,
I couldn't believe it.
I was like, oh my god,
these people are so rich
they have their own bathrooms.
I feel like they've just
gotten so much cooler
and better with time
- Yeah.
- People are just so talented.
Like when I was a little
girl I wanted to do makeup.
- Really?
- Yeah.
I had all the books, I had Kevin Au-coin
and like the Bobby Brown.
- Who?
- Au-coin? Whatever his name is?
- Kevin Aucoin?
- Whatever. How do I say it?
- Kevin Aucoin.
- I loved his book. I loved his book.
- Yeah, he's iconic.
You grew up in New York.
I, for some reason thought you grew up in
I knew you lived in
Rochester, but I thought
you grew up in New
Jersey, but you grew up in
New York.
- Rochester New York.
- And I grew up in Albany
New York, which is literally
like three-ish hours away from each other?
- Yeah.
But that's why I knew that I liked you.
Because you're normal.
Because people from upstate are normal.
- Are normal, yeah.
- Really normal.
- What made you want to move to LA?
- Well I lived in Boston
for about 8 years.
- Okay.
- I went to school there.
I started doing YouTube after I graduated
from graduate school,
and it sort of took off,
and I was like, I guess
I'll just go down this path
and see where it goes for
a little while, and ...
- Yeah.
- Here we are ten years later.
- What has been one of
your favorite lessons
that you've learned over
the course of the internet?
- I guess just to be nice to everybody.
You know, because you never
know what someone else
is going through.
- Yeah.
- I've never watched a video
and left a mean comment.
- Ever! Ever!
- Yeah.
And so I just try to remind
myself that even if someone
writes something like that,
that's not a representation
of who they are either.
Because I don't know
maybe they're just having
a really bad day and they
just want to take it out
on your lash tutorial.
- Right.
- You know?
Oh my god I look so beautiful already.
I feel like the amount of
hate that I've gotten too,
if this is any hope
for you, does die down.
- Over time?
- Yeah, like I've been on
the internet for a long time,
so all the people that really
wanted to be mean to me
were that a long time
ago, and then they gave up
and they moved on.
- Yeah.
- I would also say one
of the biggest lessons
that I learned is being
okay with having me time.
I mean it, and not like
a, I'm gonna cover myself
in paraffin wax kind of way, like ...
You know, have your
weekends, and time off,
because it's really good.
It's nothing, but it
doesn't serve for nothing.
Because you're so busy,
you're gonna get tired.
You're gonna need some me time.
- This brings us into my
next point that I wanted
to talk to you about.
You have been such a cool,
like indirect role model
to me I feel like, because in
so many videos that you have
mentioned me in, I feel like you're always
giving me some sort of advice.
- It is officially February,
which means this month
is Valentine's Day.
I'm not excited, it is
my least favorite holiday
because I've been single
for it for 17 years now,
and ...
(laughs)
Let's be real, it's gonna
be 18 in just a few days.
- Oh my god!
It's gonna be okay, alright?
You're gonna find your person.
- It's so funny that
it's worked out that way,
either whether it be
mentioning it in a video
or on Twitter, I feel like
it has been really cool
hearing from you as someone
who's been in it for a while,
giving your perspective
and helping me out,
because that is something
that I struggle with a lot,
is taking time for
myself, and forcing myself
to take a break, and that is definitely
one of my biggest things
that I'm forcing myself to do
in 2019, just because 2018
was such an amazing year
for me, and I'm so proud of
everything that I achieved,
but I was really burnt out.
I tried to deal with it publicly
too, because I feel like
it's important for everybody
else to know that like
this isn't easy all the time,
it is really challenging
to come up with new
concepts and new ideas.
- That is something that I
appreciate about what you've done
and YouTubers from I guess
your generation of YouTubers
have done, is that you've
sort of normalized,
I've seen you tweet out
like, which thumbnail
would you like, or what do you want?
- Yeah.
- Which is something that
just wasn't a thing for it,
no one cares.
No one cares about the meta
of brands, or you know.
It was just ridiculous for
me to ever think about that,
and I also come from a time
on the internet where people
would be mad at you for
taking a brand deal.
- Yeah.
- You were a sellout, how could you?
- Well that happens still a lot
in the beauty community today ...
- Does it really?
- But it's better
- At this point, your
generation of YouTubers
have normalized that, and
your audience celebrates it
for you, like when you're
doing well, which is rad.
- Exciting, yeah.
- I'm so excited to see what
you're gonna do with my brows
because I get roasted everyday.
If you can't tell, sometimes
I shave off the ends
because I get bored with the tails.
- I love that. Mine are shaved off too.
- Really?
- The ends of them
- It's fun, right?
- Yeah, it is.
- Everyone thought I
was crazy when I did it.
- Okay, so.
Speaking of you giving me advice too.
The one thing that you've harped on me for
for a very long time now is my love life.
- James.
You're 19, you're gonna find somebody.
- No.
First of all, how did you
guys meet. Tell me the story.
- Julien worked at a bar
at the end of my street,
and I went in and relentlessly hit on him.
- So was this when you were in Boston?
Or were you in LA at the time?
- I was in LA.
- Okay.
For me, finding a boyfriend
has been challenging.
- James! You're gonna find somebody!
- From watching my channel,
and from hearing me talk about
boy stories and stuff, do
you have any advice for me
when it comes to finding love?
- Well, so right now I
feel like your energy
is a little chaotic.
- A little bit, yeah.
- So I brought you a plant.
- You did?
- I realize you have a couple plants.
- Got me a cute little housewarming gift.
- Yeah.
But I feel like when
you're looking for love,
the more love you put
out into the universe,
like if you care for a
plant, or like someday
you get a doggy or a kitty,
I don't know if you like animals.
- I cannot wait, I'm getting a dog soon.
We're adopting.
- So if you put love
out into the universe,
and you focus on yourself,
you'll find a love.
You'll get that love back.
Focus on putting some love
out there, and less of the
I'm alone forever energy, and
maybe you'll find somebody.
- I feel like whenever
I do get the busiest
and I'm not thinking about
boys, is when I find like
three all at once, and then I'm like ...
It's just not fitting well.
- But you're also 19.
Like that would be the
same as someone finding
the love of their life in high school.
Which happens, but you know, not always.
For most people that's not
really a thing that happens,
so give yourself some time, be patient.
You don't want to be
with somebody right now
that's not right for you, your
person's gonna come to you
when they're gonna come to you.
- True.
Brows are my favorite part
because they can really
make or break a makeup
routine, but it's so ...
- If you don't like them
you can just shave them off.
- Okay great.
- I'm dead serious.
(clapping)
I'm so excited!
- Alright you guys, we are back
and both eyebrows are
now complete and looking
pretty good and fresh and
beautiful and snatched.
How do you feel?
- Feels so fresh and beautiful.
- Okay good. So famous.
- So famous.
- So famous!
- That's so funny.
- You know what else is really famous?
- What?
- Like ...
Really famous?
- There she is. I've
never seen her in person.
- What? Really?
- Tried to order 'em, couldn't
order it, you sold out.
- I didn't send you one?
- No.
- [Julien] Tea.
- Tea!
- Nobody sends me anything.
- Do you want one?
- I want to buy one with my own money.
- No.
- I want to support you, I don't like, no.
- You're the cutest.
Jenna just told me when
we walked in that you guys
ordered Sisters apparel,
why didn't we just--
- I was trying to get Sisters apparel
for when we filmed together,
so we could show up
in our Sisters clothes.
- That is so cute, you guys are the best.
She sold out too.
- Trying to support people, you know?
I don't want you to give
me one, I want to buy one.
I'm gonna go to an Ulta and buy it.
- Okay, I'll text you
when it restocks then.
- Thank you.
- I'll also give you one,
too. For the meantime.
- No, no, no no, no, no!
- We have the James Charles
X Morphe palette here today,
and we're gonna do a fun
and fresh eye look on Jenna.
- Unleash your inner artist!
- Yes!
So I wanna do something like, kind of fun,
because I feel like when
you do do beauty videos,
they're not bad.
And I think you make fun
of yourself all the time
for sucking at makeup, but you don't,
is the truth tea, sister
- Awe!
- So I feel like we should
do something like ...
- Whatever you want.
- Something fun, right!
- I'm down for whatever.
- Okay. I think I know what
look I want to do on you.
- What? Tell us!
- I think I wanna do a
purpley-blue on the lid.
- Fun.
- With a good sunset ...
- Love a sunset.
- Moment.
- Love it.
- Yeah.
- I'm ready.
It'll match my aura.
- Yeah.
Like, you have the orange on,
and I have the blue and pink,
so like, sunset.
- Perfect.
Oh I know what I wanted to say to you.
I think it's so cool that you're sober.
- Oh!
- And you don't drink or do any drugs.
- Yeah. A sober sister.
- I think that's really wonderful, James.
- I think it's also
because I have a major fear
of getting in trouble.
- Me!
- I always like, going
to the principal's office
was my worst nightmare.
- I'm scared of authority.
- Yeah, don't like getting
yelled at, don't like
being in trouble, don't like
breaking the rules ever.
And obviously when I was in
high school, I was very much
underage, and I would hear
all the time about people
getting arrested, and people
getting stopped by the police
because the police in my
town were pretty intense.
I would go to school
and people would be like
so mad about it, like oh
I got busted last night,
and like, hey you're breaking the law.
- Yeah.
- Like, duh, of course you're
gonna get in trouble for it.
I don't know I just never
wanted to do that, and I think
also because even before
I was doing makeup
I was doing hair for girls in my school,
I was trying to do social media.
I was just never interested in doing that,
but I think it's because
I had so many other things
going on.
- I think it's really
admirable, and really cool.
- Thank you.
- Yeah.
- I really appreciate that.
- Yeah.
Did you ever play any sports, James?
- I did actually.
- What did you play?
- I played baseball.
- Ooh, me too!
- And basketball, and soccer.
- Ooh, can't relate to basketball.
- And hockey.
- Whoa. A jock.
- I was so convinced
that I was so straight.
I'm not athletic, but I am competitive.
- You're athletic.
- Not really.
- Yuh-huh.
I've seen those legs.
- I've always been very, very competitive,
so even through sports I
didn't really like playing them
but I did like winning.
What did you play?
- I played softball all
the way through college.
- Okay.
I can totally picture that.
- Yeah.
- Oh my god, how are your dogs?
- They're so good.
- Are they?
- I was gonna ask you if you
wanted me to bring any of them
so you could hang.
- Yeah, you should have!
- Damn, I really blew this, didn't I?
- [Julien] They would've been crying.
- Oh.
I want to adopt a dog so badly.
- What kind of dog do you want?
Big, little?
- I want a medium sized
dog, like not as big
as a lab, just a little
bit smaller for sure.
I grew up with a border
collie black lab mix,
and he was literally ...
- Smart.
- The best, and I miss him so much.
- He was a smart boy.
- Yes, he was super, super smart.
I've been really wanting to
adopt one, I've just been
traveling so much recently that I'm like,
I'm not gonna put a dog
through that until I know
that I'm home for a little bit.
Which sucks, but I know is
obviously for the better.
But my traveling is coming
to a half very soon,
so I'm starting to look.
- That's good. You need
to look out for yourself.
- Yeah.
I love dogs, and I'm the
type of person that likes
to be with people at all times,
like I love having friends
and family over.
- It's cause you're a Gemini.
- I am.
Why do you say that? Is that
a quality that Geminis have?
- I don't know.
- So I like being around
people kind of at all times,
and I feel like when I'm not
with people, it'd be good
for me to have a dog around.
Would you get another dog?
- Yeah, we talk about it all the time.
- Really?
- We're gonna rescue a big greyhound.
- So you do want to get another one?
- Yeah.
- Okay. And would you want
to get a girl or a boy?
- Well, I think we'd get another girl.
And so we'd have two boys and two girls.
- Okay.
- And if you ever need a
dog-sitter, I'm not kidding,
just drop your dog off at my house.
- Really?
- [Julien] Yes.
- I love watching other people's dogs.
- Okay. Definitely will do.
Okay I'm gonna grab a
little bit of Artistry
from the palette, and I'm
gonna put this on your lid,
I think.
Let's see how this looks.
Oh wow, look at that!
That color is so famous!
- Oh my god! It's gonna be a whole femur!
- I'm gonna add a wing liner.
- Ooh!
- I feel like we have to
do a wing, it's like staple
Jenna Marbles.
Right?
- [Jenna] I'm ready.
Pretty much.
- [James] Okay.
- [Jenna] I like it.
- [James] Okay, I'm
gonna take a deep breath.
- [Jenna] It's hard.
- [James] I know.
- [Jenna] Okay.
(inhales)
Based on my personality
and what you've seen of me
on YouTube so far, what
type of dog do you think
would be good for me?
- Something that is playful.
Honestly, if you were
looking for a little dog
I'd say a Jack Russell terrier.
Something that you can just
throw a ball with all day,
because you're high energy.
You have a lot of energy,
a lot of love to give.
- Yes. This is true.
- You could handle a very high energy dog.
Except for the fact that you travel.
But just your personality.
- You think?
- Yeah, something really fun.
- Look forward.
- Any dog would be lucky
to have you as a dad.
- Thanks sister.
- Yeah.
- That wing looks awful.
- No it doesn't! What
are you talking about?
- It looks really good
when you close, but.
- My face is hard. It's a challenge.
- Where do you usually put your wings?
- Everywhere.
Like this one I have to do
differently, because it's
I got wonky eye.
- [James] Uh-huh. I'm seeing that.
Uh-oh. What do I do?
- [Jenna] See I get roasted all
the time, I'm like, you guys
don't understand.
This is a hard face.
- Oh my god, it worked.
Oh my god I've never done that before.
For people that have hooded
eyes, sometimes people
will draw a wing, I don't know that's like
it goes in and then ...
- It's like a hook.
- Yeah, kind of.
And I did that shape and it worked
because of that eye flap.
- Flappy.
- But I still need to clean
it up, because it still
looks horrendous, but give
me a second, and it'll look
better.
- There's hope for us
people with flappy eyes.
- Yeah.
- I never have this many colors on my eye,
I'm very excited.
- Do you like it?
- Yes. I can only do one color at a time.
- Really?
- Yeah, because I'll start blending
and then before I know it,
it's just in my eyebrow.
- Oh that's good.
- And all your brushes are really soft,
and mine are all sharp and owie,
and this is just really nice.
- Are they really?
Why?
- I don't know. Probably just washing them
and pressing on them too hard.
- Do you need new ones? I can hook you up.
- No stop trying to give me stuff!
- Why?
- Because I pay stuff with my own money,
I like to support you.
- You need the James
Charles X Morphe brush set.
- Hell yeah.
- If you think you're leaving
here without it today,
you're wrong.
- I'm leaving here without it.
- No you're not.
- Mm-hmm.
- You brought me a plant,
I can bring you a palette.
- Mm-mm.
- Yes.
- Mm-mm.
- Yes!
- No.
I suddenly don't know how to use my hands.
I can't leave with it.
- Julien can carry it, it's okay.
- [Julien] Okay.
- No, no, no, no, no.
Don't sabotage me like this, Julien.
- Hide the inner corner
for a nice little pop.
- Oh my god, pop.
- Okay so I'm gonna apply a lily lash
in the style Yass Queen.
- Wow.
- Wow.
- Who's been some of your favorite people
that little James can't believe
that you got to work with
so far?
- So many.
It's honestly most of the
people that I've been able
to work with.
You and Shane I grew up
watching, so like this is
super cool, my video with
Shane has been amazing.
- Shane's pretty wonderful.
- He really is.
Demi.
- Ooh.
- We haven't filmed together yet, but like
she's just my favorite
person in the entire world.
And I have had so many
dark times, like her music
has helped me get through.
And now her and I
literally text every day.
And it's so cool just to
have that with somebody
you've looked up to
forever, because she's just
literally the nicest.
Kylie and Kim, super, super dope.
They're like two of my favorites ever.
Pretty much everybody, like,
my subscribers are super supportive of me
so I don't really do a lot of collabs.
And if I do do them, it's
people that I've really
looked up to and respected for a while.
Like I refuse to do a collab
just to gain subscribers,
I would never, because I don't need it.
My followers will still
watch my content regardless
which is amazing.
So pretty much everybody
that I've collabed with
has been somebody that I've loved.
- That's so cool.
- Which is really cool.
It's like my favorite part of the job.
Okay, we're gonna pop this on here,
and hope that looks good and fresh.
We're off to a good start
now, do you like it?
- I love it, it's so pretty.
- Okay, it's looking good now!
Wow we love a good eyelash.
Okay great!
- That's something I
learned many years ago,
like if you mess up on
your eyeliner a little bit
just throw a thick lash
on there, and it's like
it never happened!
- And it's gone!
That's such a good makeup
tip, we're professionals!
Okay.
Alright you guys, so that
is pretty much one eye
on sister Jenna all complete.
We're gonna go ahead
and do the other one now
pretty quickly, but we'll be right back
to finish off the rest of the look.
Alright sisters we are back
with both eyes all complete,
how are you feeling?
- Amazing, beautiful.
- I like how it's turning out.
I feel like it looks really
stunning and good and fresh!
- I've done so much work here today.
- Alright you guys, we're
gonna move on to the next step
which is of course going to be the glow.
Just a little bit of highlighter moment.
So we're gonna still stay
within the James Charles palette
I'm just gonna grab of course Face.
- Ooh.
- Just grab an M501, I'm
gonna give you a quick ...
(clattering)
Oops.
A quick spritz of some
sister setting spray first,
just to kind of melt
some of the powders in
now that we're all done
with the eyeshadow.
Jenna if you were not
doing YouTube, do you have
any idea what you would
be doing right now?
- Well I mean I went to graduate school
for sports psychology, so ...
- Oh!
- I would probably honestly
be working with kids.
I worked as a camp counselor for years,
and in graduate school we did ...
Oh my ...
Oh! Oh my goodness! I'm gonna pass out!
It never looks like that when I do it.
What?
(gasps)
Oh, sorry. Goodness.
We did a program where we
taught social responsibility
through physical activity for kids that
lived in underserved areas, and I worked
for the Boys and Girls
Club for a lot of years.
- Oh my god!
- So I would probably work with kids.
- I could see you definitely being like
an elementary school teacher.
I could definitely see that.
- Oh my god, it's so beautiful!
- You look so smooth and buttery!
- I am so smooth and buttery!
- So famous!
Okay, I'm gonna grab a
little bit of Literally,
on a Anastasia A23 brush,
this is like my favorite
shade in the palette for
using a blush, highlight
mixer type of color,
and I'm gonna use this
to blend together.
Oh that was a little much.
I'm going, look to your
left, and then I have
one last question for you when we're done.
Gonna do a good little nude moment.
- What would you be doing if
you weren't doing YouTube?
- I have no idea.
I think about that all the time.
I would be in college right now, for sure.
- What would you study?
- I don't know.
I think because the fact
that I did get into makeup
and hair right before I
was done with high school,
I don't know.
Because it did take up so
much of my time and interest.
I've always been very into
business and marketing,
that's always been my biggest passion
and that's always been what
I'm really, really good at,
and still am good at to this
day, that's what social media
is at the end of the day,
is marketing and knowing how
to do it right.
So I feel like if I wasn't
doing this, I'd be studying
marketing, but at the same
time too, because of the fact
that I already did have so
much experience, I definitely
feel like it is one of
those fields where you can
really learn a lot better
when you're experiencing
those type of things.
When I was already doing
social media I took
a business marketing
class at my high school
because we were offered
it, and I was bored
out of my mind.
- Well I think what's cool
about social media now
is that you are the expert.
- Yeah.
- Someone in the generation above you
probably wouldn't do as
good of a job teaching it
than you, because you're
sort of shaping the field
as you work in it.
- Right.
I think that is what is so
cool about the YouTube world
too, and I think that it is really cool
because I'll get emails
from professors all the time
or from different colleges that will ask
like influencers that come in and speak,
and that's dope, me
being a 19 year old kid
like gonna come in and
teach a class on that.
That's like so cool, but
it's really exciting for me,
and I love giving advice
to smaller influencers
and other creators, and
my friends about marketing
and how to do brand deals,
and who to work with
and what to post on Instagram.
I don't know I just
feel like I really have
a knack for it, which is why
I think I would definitely
want to work in beauty
consultation once I'm done
being a guru and stuff,
I don't know I just
really like thinking
and analyzing and seeing
what's next, and figuring
out how to stay relevant,
which actually brings me to
my last question for you.
As someone who's been around
for so long on the internet
and has inspired people
left and right, for the
younger sisters that have
been out there watching
who may have been subscribed to you or me
who want to do YouTube one day,
what is one piece of advice
you would give them in
order to stay inspired
and also stay relevant for a while.
- Just do what you are
excited about, you know?
Like for you that's makeup,
and when we talk about
what you'd be doing or what I'd be doing,
the world would be like, we would miss you
if you were doing that,
like you could do that
and you'd be really wonderful,
but what makes a bigger deal
or difference is when you
actually do what's in your heart.
- Right.
- Like what you want to do.
- What you're passionate about.
- Yeah, like a world without James Charles
not doing makeup would
just be really weird
and not my favorite world,
I like having you here.
- Thanks, angel.
- Yeah, so when you actually do the stuff
that is interesting to you,
it doesn't matter really
what platform you're doing it on,
or where you're doing
it, as long as you have
a passion for it, you will
find an audience for it
if you're coming from a place
of genuine fun and interest
and having a good time.
- I always say that.
It's really obvious who's
in it for the right reasons,
and who isn't, and at the end of the day
it's always the people
who were doing it because
they really love it that
stay around for a very, very
long time, which is why ...
- I just want to laugh.
- You're still here.
- I just want to laugh, so
I've just been able to do that
and if I don't have a
job anymore that's okay
because I'm probably
just gonna keep laughing.
I look so beautiful, James!
- I think we're about to be done, sister
I'm gonna give you one last spritz,
and we'll show the final look.
(upbeat music)
Alright sisters, so this is the final look
on sister Jenna Marbles!
- I love it, James.
- Do you like it?
- Yeah.
(squeals)
It's really sweet, thank
you so much for doing this.
- Thank you so much for
coming to my channel,
I feel like this has been in
the works for such a long time
now and you've been such
a huge role model to me
and so many other people as well,
and it was truly an honor to be able
to have glammed you up today
sister, I'm really glad you like the look.
- Thank you James, that's
really nice of you.
And I have a lot to
learn from you as well,
and it's been really nice
to spend time with you.
- You're my favorite thing
ever in the entire world.
