    You look like the classical man at the back of the library who read Oscar Wilde while smiling charmingly at those you catch staring at you.
    Long story short, you are my make-up role model.

    Thank you, sir! Thank you thank you thank you thank you!!! I'm a middle-aged, drag-ignorant, woman, who doesn't get out much. I've been invited to a DIY ("drag it yourself") engagement party. The drag part is optional, but I want to participate and show full support for the gender bending couple. I've spent the last few weeks trying to come up with a drag king persona. I was like "how does one figure out what style of facial hair suits one's face??" My 14 year old daughter was like "mom. filters. Duh." So I found a few of those online. I thought a full beard would be fun, but rather horrifyingly discovered I looked like my uncle Al. I figured out the clothing side and how to flatten my chest but was rather flummoxed over what to do with my face. This tutorial is PERFECT!!! I found the right way to contour my round face and used your techniques for creating facial hair that doesn't make me look like my uncle. Now I can't wait to go to the party as a gorgeous, middle-aged, gentleman - a silver fox. Thank you again!!!

    As a budding FTM I really appreciated this!! Most of the other makeup tutorials are either low-key hostile or just like... they kind of do it without explaining what's up?

    I've been binging Ru Paul's drag race for the past week and I was wishing I could be a drag queen as a woman, because honestly most of the time when I wear feminine clothes I feel like I AM in drag lol obviously I then realized I could be a drag king so today I've been collecting inspiration and this is the first makeup tutorial I've watched literally ever. I always hated makeup but now seeing this it gets me so excited to get started!! Thanks for making this

    This is so informative and precise, and might I add that your voice is sooo soothing. Love how you don't make things complicated. The final result is ever so gorgeous. I'm subscribing. Thank you so much 😍😍😍

    As a person who does a LOT of male characters, I thank you a thousand times for this!! I have a "baby face" so that plus more feminine features makes it hard to do my makeup to look masculine. I'm definitely trying some of this out when I can get back into my cosplays (very soon)

    One of my first jobs was a living museum as well, in the 1800's. I was so jealous of the men in their suits while I wore dresses that did not flatter me. But I remember loving learning about flower language and a girl from another house and I would bring each other bouquets to decode.
