Welcome to the official CZcams channel of Nikol Johnson!💄
My Channel empowers women to show up, be BOLD, FIERCE, and Unapologetic. I talk a lot about this in my book Beauty Reinvented, available through Amazon! It's not just about going gray young it's about a powerful movement for women breaking out and having NO BEAUTY RULES.
➡️ None of what I show on this channel is what “mainstream” CZcams makeup tutorials will show you. Instead of telling you to put loads of makeup on (that makes you look like a different person), I want to show you how to “reveal” the beauty that you already have and teach you how to look GREAT- while still looking like YOURSELF.
As the years go by, many women feel that their beauty and radiance go by too. I don’t believe this. I believe you can stay beautiful, confident, and feel fabulous even if you’re past 40, 70, 80, or 100 years of age.
➡️ No matter your background or your age, my goal is to help you on your journey. Whether through make-up/skin-care tutorials, product reviews, or health/wellness advice. I want to empower (and teach) women to show up, be BOLD, FIERCE, and unapologetic.
Are you ready to embrace your authentic self- and start making YOUR OWN BEAUTY RULES? Subscribe to my channel NOW! 🔔
📆 I am so happy to see you each week on Mondays and Thursdays at 10 AM EST.

#NikolJohnson #MatureBeauty #NikolCosmetics - Jak na to + styl
Let's just stop the noise and celebrate one another. We're all mostly doing the best we can. Let that be enough!
Agree! xoxo
Well said !👏👏👏👏👏💖
Amen!!!! I believe that women that feel the need to insult another, it's out of insecurity and jealousy. We should build each other up, not tear each other down. 😊
Yes Well said!❤
Amen!
Nikol, you are so gracious and authentic! I’m retired from the Corporate Jungle and I can tell you women can be VICIOUS! Let a women get a nice promotion and the vipers come out! The Mean Girls thing doesn’t disappear after middle school… it’s disheartening and needs to stop. I believe that when you lift up others, you too are blessed.
Amen to that! I left the corporate world 6 months ago after a 20+ year career because I could not take the toxicity anymore, and yes, the most toxic people were women playing games and politics. I decided to take the time to rebuild myself and rethink what I really want to do for the next half of my life. I want it to be good and uplifting :)
True !
21 years in corporate I retired at 62, and it never got better or easier women are horrible. Nikol you are a very special gal
Same. Left cororate medical America and never looked back. I worked for only 15 months for a group of women who treated me horribly and in the end they told me I wasn't working and I was essentially "fired." Best thing that ever happened! I have since published a romance novel, with another one being published this May! So, there you mean girls lol. Nikol, we adore you.
I worked in various jobs and industries, and the two worst (out of many) people I worked for were women. Then, there were the female cliques who spent most of their time gossiping. Most toxic environment I have ever worked in. Horrible experience!
As a retired therapist - now 81, I have been working on empowering women since my mid thirties. You do a fantastic job! You are an inspiration and make everything ‘real’. Blessings to you - please keep doing you ❤
Annie, What a rewarding career snd life’s work you have had over the years of working with and FOR the betterment of Women! I found your post inspirational. 💕🌹
Good for you!
Strange how the womens liberation movement, back in the 70's has not blossomed to the point where women can stop being bullies and bitches towards one another. 🤔
😂Hey Nikol, FYI - Not just "ladies" watching you. Men also appreciate your fabulousness!
I love what you said, "I don't come from a place of scarcity." What a gracious way to live🙏🏽
Well of course not. What wealthy person does? 🙄
Indeed
I’ve been living that way for a very long time. We are provided for
when we live this way.
Im not a mean girl. I’m proud of it. Be good on that.
1. You're dope
2. You're hair is DOOOOPPPEEE
3. Your style is fire and inspires me all the time.
4. Eff the haters, you're bringing light and beaity and style back into our lives.
Keep on keeping on!
I couldn’t agree more.
I agree! She is everything! ❤
You're right, Nicole, this online behavior from people isn't normal!! They would never say the things they do online to someone's face. Shameful. I so love your creativity...i would never dare to bring a blue back into my eye shadow choices but you've shown me I can, and it's beautiful!❤
Agree. It really reflects on their own feelings of inadequacy , not the “shortcomings” of others.
I wouldn't be so sure about people not saying nasty things in person, rebecca. I was the deciding voice for a woman my group hired at my last job, and I helped her get signed up for the classes she needed, coached her, and was always cordial and helpful. One day, she saw me checking my automatic deposit and the savings allocations much of it went to online, and she commented, "you're sitting on all that money - one of these days you're going to die alone and leave all your money to your dog." It took me a while to get my breath back and remind myself that only a very limited person would say such a thing. Late in the day, I wheeled my chair over near hers, and said, "I want you to know, that comment you made was unnecessary and out of line. Please don't expect any more help from me."
People are hateful because they are hidden by a keyboard. You’ve been such an inspiration for so many women-you kept my spirit up during and after my grow out!
Nikol, when will women learn: When you have nothing good to say, say nothing at all. Geez… I just don’t understand these so called “mature” women. You are an amazing and gracious lady. I admire you. I’m 72 and have always been a makeup junky. I love your line and especially your tutorials. They’ve helped me so much. Thank you for being so humble. You remind me of the woman in a book I read. “She can laugh at the years ahead”. A Godly woman.
Where do we shop for Nikols products..?
On her website. Just look up Nikol Cosmetics. 🙂
@FaithZaccari-sl5bs Dittos! I love the quite! So true! 💖
I'm 73 and started my CZcams channel a year ago. People are occasionally hurtful. What I feel now is that it helps me learn what younger people experience every day, which helps me do a better job of helping them. Everything can be a lesson.
What a phenomenal message! We should always be supporting one another, and celebrating each other accomplishments! 😊
Good morning! Nikol you are amazing ❤I am 70 years young and just found you. Love you videos and bought your makeup……Love It!! Thank you.
Thank you for being here!
You are fantastically gorgeous, thank you for giving all of us the confidence to try 😉🤗
You are so right ! I find myself doing exactly the same thing on my feed i refuse to get caught anymore. I think more of us are coming out of the fog. No more nasty nonsense. Elevate everyone.
“I don’t come from a place of scarcity” says it all for me! Nor do I, there really is enough for us all. It IS hard sometimes to keep our vibration high and ignore the negativity, jealousy, and hate that some women/people thrive on. That is one of the reasons I love watching you. You are an inspiration for so many of us that follow you. Please take comfort in knowing your beauty, style, honesty, and advice inspire us. We all have some self doubt, and under normal circumstances we can move past it…but I can’t imagine being bombarded with these low vibrations. You’re right, we can do better and we should. Just remember all of us who are in your corner. Stay strong for us! Thanks, sweetie!
YES! There is enough.
Nikol, being gracious and realizing that there is enough business for all the different women in the business is so amazing. Good for you!
You come to a point in your life that you just have to accept what has or is happening with hair body and skin. You have to find the best products that suits you and that you can afford. I use to use every so often years ago navy blue eyeliner and mascara. I loved it!! I am 74 now with a muscle illness that has also effected my skin. I had stopped using makeup for years. I then found products that have helped my skin and that I can afford. When I found your tutorials I felt confident again and I started to use make up even the navy blue eyeliner & mascara. It is light & not heavy on the eyes. I also use plum, browns and blacks. I don't use make up every day because there are days I don't have the strength but Thank You for making me feel alive again. You are a beautiful, intellegent,sucessful, woman. By the way, I love your hair!! Bless you!!
Thank you so much for sharing 🥰
I love your honesty!! That is very rare today!! 💜💜
Nikol, you are so right, we should not be compared to others! We are beautiful, and unique,in our own way. It would be so boring if we all looked alike. I was so thrilled when I ran across your videos, Yay another woman who has white hair, and dark thick eye brows like me!! Its the way God made us. I think he did good. Lol.
I’ve been thinking about this topic quite a bit lately too. I’m always shocked by the lack of kindness in comments across all platforms. It’s primarily why I don’t use social media. I thought FB was bad until I went on Nextdoor, lol! These are my neighbors? 😂 We all need to focus on doing better in our interactions with fellow humans! I truly believe that loving kindness is the key to solving all of the problems that exist in the world. You must know that you’re perfect just as you are, no matter what. Sending love your way. 💗💗💗
I don’t use NextDoor anymore. The insults (not me cuz I don’t get into it with anyone) are heartbreaking. Women can be vicious. Such a giveaway cuz when I see that behavior I will never hang out with that uncouth person.
@@Donna-cc1kt Right? It seems like a place where all the Karens go to regulate the neighborhood. This includes the men! I wish I could go back to thinking most of my neighbors were nice!
Let's not use Karen think of all the women out there named Karen Not all of them are bad and you are slamming and shining their name let's It quit using someone's name To be mean@@bellaflora.
That was supposed to be shaming
@@daymonwilson What do you mean?
I love you and your videos. I am in my 60's. I have become so comfortable with me. I love you, your products, and your videos. Everything you do is so relatable and customizable. Your videos have been a tremendous help to me. Thank you.
I am so happy to hear this! xoxo
Good for you. I’m so happy to see a successful woman who is kind and supportive. ❤
I found your channel last year when I was trying to find myself again after my husband became disabled and I went through three major illnesses/health crises of my own-and I had to keep working because I was suddenly the sole financial support for my household. I never gave up makeup, but I literally wore the same colors/shades/everything for over five years-and it didn’t look good, and I knew it, but I was too sick to care. When I finally started recovering my health and financial stability, I had to find a makeup mentor because I had totally lost my finesse with color theory and my application skills were sooo…forgotten. Additionally, a long illness left me with a dark vein showing through the skin under one eye, and it’s really hard to conceal (but thanks to you, I’ve got that figured out now). So I went looking, and you’re the person I found. I remember seeing you in 90s magazines and on HSN and your authenticity is so relatable. You are so much more than a makeup mentor. Some of the things you’ve addressed in your videos helped me reconnect to myself, organize my thinking, and pull myself out of survival mode. Thank you for doing what you do! ❤
That dark vein under my eye? I teach high school and last year I was told that I deserved my black eye because anybody who makes a career out of tormenting children deserves to be punched in the face. I’m blown away by the things people complain about and the rude things they say. I get where you’re coming from. I just don’t understand people who can’t stop projecting cruelty.
Keep being you. ❤
Thank you for sharing. Bring a teacher is one of the most special things in this world. Thank you for teaching and giving your knowledge. Sending prayers to you and your husband.
🙏
Sending love
Miss Nikol, I am so happy I had time today to watch your video. Life gets busy. At 57, I have zero time for petty stuff. It's ugly and leaves me feeling ugly. Thank you for not pretending. You leave me feeling beautiful, always.
Your channel is a must for the Mature woman who is still looking ahead instead of living in the past
You are real. That's why we can identify with you. If at 78 I had flawless skin, I wouldn't need to watch your video! LOL BUT it's rare for a woman as she ages to keep that flawless skin, so we try to look our best, not perfect. I've worn makeup everyday since I was 20 yrs. old, whether I'm going to build a patio or go shopping. I put on my war paint to face the world!!!
I hear you about the social media nonsense. I have to make ample use of the “not interested” option lately even with actual news! Stay positive and beautiful as always ❤
I never thought about using that Not Interested tool but I USE IT ALL THE TIME now lol
I guess I didn't notice that it was available....so much for awareness 😊
Also the "don't recommend channel" option on CZcams is so useful 😂
Thank you for keeping it real.! ❤
This is why I love you!! Supporting women...period!! I love your message and your coloring outside the lines! ❤
Thank you so much!!
Nikol, You are stunning and your look is very particular to you. The fact that you have thick hair, heavy dark brows, is your look. You’re not Scandinavian, you’re not Irish, and your look is what it is. It’s what makes you you, but it goes along with that pigmentation. I have skimpy brows, not dark under the eyes, but spotting from too much sun on very fair skin, some waves in my hair, but it’s thin,, has no body.. I do the best I can with what I have, not to mention that I’m 81. My skin is good for my age. We do our best. You’ll never look like me and I never looked like you. Go with your gorgeousness. I used to be a photographic model as a teen. You do a fabulous job showing clothes.
I worked in healthcare and my position was outsourced in 2003. My friend was the business manager for Shiseido for Bloomies in NYC. She offered me a job at a new Bloomies in NJ. I reluctantly took the job. It was the hardest job I ever had. Retail in general is hard on the body, but the sales quotas are really difficult to reach (there was no foot traffic in the store). Store managers ostracize sales people when they don't hit their quotas and fall all over them when they do. It's cut throat on the floor. Kudos to anyone working high-end cosmetic sales.
Beautiful! Oh I just love blues. Thanks for the inspiration.
I appreciate you so, so much for being with us !
Thank you
Please don't stress about the talking heads! You are fabulous and an inspiration to many. Spin a few more times in your closet, in some stunning outfit😊
Thank you 😊
I just adore you. You have a million women who ADORE you. The sD truth is there are people who enjoy getting under someones skin. Lets not give them the pleasure of being there mentally deranged selves. You know fang well YOU ARE THEE IT GIRL. You are perfect in every way. 🎉❤ Because you are you!!
I got off both Facebook and Instagram today. It felt great. There’s so much shallow nonsense on social media. It’s such a waste of time.
I am so impressed with your integrity and your honesty. Especially in giving other women the hand up and the credit they are due. Too many women look at other women with the jealous or envious eye. I am proud that you are happy for others and encouraging.
Thank you so much!
Nikol, you are *such* a beautiful soul. Your inner beauty radiates. Blessings! Jackie in upstate NY
Thank you
Nikol,you ARE an influencer.Being an influencer is very tricky. Some influencers try to what I call faking it. They are showing their fake selves and ultimately can cause harm by installing untruths.Of course, those most influenced are your young girls, but so can older women fall into that trap because of societal influences on beauty You are so right when you say ,work with what you have,celebrate your individuality and learn what works for you and your look.As I said in a previous post, beauty is hard work but the real beauty comes from within and realizing who you are.KUDOS Nikol.Thank you for truth inspiration and realistic encouragement ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love your videos, you are lovely, really enjoy your honest conversation.😊
Quite honestly you are a true beauty form the inside out, heart and soul. Thank you for representing us aging women. 💕
Wow, thank you
“I don’t come from the place of scarcity!” I LOVE THIS!!! ❤ you’re awesome
Be Awesome ❤
Can't us women just age gracefully and not have anything wrong with us?
Some days we look better than other days, it's simple.🤷♀️
Nikol, you have taught me to accept myself as an aging woman to take care of my skin and Thursday I may look better than Friday, big deal, I'm still ME! Stress makes me look UGH! But that's life!
Thank you so much!😊❤️
I came here because this woman intrigues me so…I sat through the entire post obviously geared to women, but I just had to know more about this extraordinary woman. I am a middle aged man and a professional photographer for over 3 decades. I am grateful to understand more of this woman who is willing to appear unfiltered before the world. I can appreciate that immensely. God bless you, Ms. Nikol. You have a huge new fan.
Repeatedly, I have people, mostly women tell me that makeup is so not necessary and why do you wear it? Well, I have always loved makeup and if something makes me feel better, I’m doing it! Look at the before and after of the same person. It enhances what we already have going for us. People say I am pretty enough without it. Then I am obviously more pretty WITH it! Leave it alone. Live and let live. I love your look today!
I can’t stand people who,ask me why I wear makeup all the time…; my answer: Because I want to! They are jelly because you look too good.
I love when you said “women do better!”
I love watching you apply your beauty, you are so natural. I’ve only been following for a couple of weeks, so I have a lot of catching up to do. There were a few things I liked here.First, the outfit you styled, it was amazing. You look so good in everything and have impeccable taste. Next, the way you applied the blue eyeshadow, loved this.Third, your story about Bobbie Brown and how you genuinely are happy for others in your industry.I’m 76, but have a lot to learn from you, so thank you for all you do for women’s wellness and mentality.😊♥️
Thank you 😘
I just love your energy ! When you are showing the new dresses in your clips- and you dance - it's fantastic. You always looks nice and your channel is beautiful inside and out. We should be grateful to be older. I heard Michael J Fox say that "with gratefulness optimism is sustainable." I have never been an effusive personality , but this quote has filled my spirit. So rock on Nicole. Keep being you however you choose to express it. Beauty beauty beauty !
In our society women have been conditioned to view other women as competition. This prohibits women supporting and encouraging other women to succeed. In my personal opinion this as been encouraged to keep us in "our" place. If women banded together and supported each other we would be unstoppable. This is my observation in 60+ years of life.
I always say - if women come together - there will be peace and joy in the world! We definitely should support each other more.
You are beautiful ❤️🫶🌹
You are helping me so much at this time of my life. I’am 64 & have naturally dark blonde hair that is turning gray. I have decided to stop getting light blonde highlights & go natural gray. Your really helping me with this transformation with your makeup tips. I did not realize that going from blonde to gray that my makeup choices would need to be tweeted. I really appreciate you, Thank You!❤
🤣tweaked!
Good afternoon Nikol! I agree with you while heartedly! Thank you for your great content! I enjoy it so much and learning quite a bit as well! I’ve also purchased a couple of your products and will continue to do so! Enjoy your day and remember haters will be haters. They are just miserable within themselves. I’m sure it’s hard not to have some of that negativity get under your skin. Let it roll. You’re rolling at a higher vibe which is why we all enjoy your realness and authenticity! It’s so stinking refreshing! So, keep on keeping on! I for one will be watching in full support. Have a wonderful week!❤
I love your openness and your support of mental health! I feel like I am checking in on a friend every time I check you out.
I love makeup but had stopped using much until I discovered your videos. Now I am experimenting with new products and loving it. I’m 75 years old but I still want to feel beautiful!
I’ve recently discovered you and this video was so refreshing. I’m starting a little candle business in my small town and I’m in my testing stage. It’s far from simple and there is a lot more too it than people think. Especially if you actually care and want to make a quality product that’s safe and lovely. I’ve had some comments that were discouraging as if what I’m doing should be “easy”. To hear you be so supportive of women and peoples accomplishments was beyond motivating! Thank you! You are absolutely stunning and I appreciate your authenticity!
I adore your video’s. I really think the addition of the blue to the eye is fabulous for spring.. What negativity people put out into the universe will come back to them 10 fold. You’re such an amazing phenomenal woman. Always remember that. You are entitled to your feelings. ❤
EXCELLENT tutorial and inspirational chat - thank you again, Nikol. I sort of do my eyes that way, but you add the professional level explaining the brushes, the double layer of shadow and eyeliner over the top.
ALWAYS love your positive vibes and messages Nikol, you are spot on, very refreshing! Also, beautiful tutorial. Thank you.
You are inspirational! I have learned so much and at 58 feel I can still play with makeup. LOVE your videos and your tips and tricks are priceless. Please don't change and continue to be your true beautiful self. Thank you so so much! ❤
Nikol, bless you for this video. I have always been a encourager of people. YOU encouraged me today. You said out loud what I have been feeling and thinking. We are all unique and should remember that. We should not compare ourselves to others and I have been quilts of that myself. I love the fact that you encourage women to enhance what we are born with and that is empowering. I am now 73 and embrace my age and mature flaws, but you have taught me to still look good at my age. Thank you.
I admire your strength and courage, can't be easy being in your industry and constantly being reminded you are getting older, but jeez we all are. Your beautiful inspiring support to woman should always be commended. I for one thank you for being real and inspiring us to be our best selves 🙏
I especially love me the way you illustrated how to apply the blush and bronzer! I always have trouble not showing that streak across & under my cheeks - now I can see just how to apply & blend it to show good contour! Thanks!!🙏🏻
You are a beautiful soul, inside and out!! What a class act and I love that you so genuinely support other women. Thanks for all that you do❤️
I always feel so much better after watching your videos! Love❤that blue on you! Thanks for sharing your talents and wisdom❣️
Thank you!
Hi Nikola, you are genuine and beautiful. As a woman of a certain age I really like your content. We need more people like you
Amen! Thanks for being yourself; lovely spirit, authentic, generous and creative. You inspire all of us. Don’t let the turkeys get you down.
Nikol I sincerely appreciate what I’ve learned from you!! Most of all you’re real with us. For me when you share with us your experiences with unkind, judgmental comments it makes me feel ok with myself bc I’m not the only person who deals with this. So I hold my chin up and do me❤
Thank you so much for your encouragement and being real! Uplifting each other is the way to go, there is so much for everyone! Love!
I appreciate your authenticity. I am a presence in my own field and know very well what it's like to be a target. You go girl!
I'm so sorry that people can be so hurtful. I'm glad you shared this. You are so right, we need to raise our vibration and support and encourage each other. I appreciate all of your beauty tips. You are a professional and very beautiful. ❤
Sending back a little encouragement: you always make me feel better about my aging self--and I love your confidence. You are so right about the negativity: we need to forgive ourselves and each other in order to be free to fully love life. Blessings back!
Please just keep being “real”! You are a blessing to a lot of us as we try to age gracefully. Years ago I learned to stay away from people who exude negative energy. At 76 I still follow that plan & I am happier with myself than ever. Ignore the “toads”! 😁
Bless you for being vulnerable and real, women need to lift each other up , not pull down ,words hurt , as my mom always said if you can’t say anything nice don’t say anything at all. You are a beautiful woman , 💖🇨🇦🫶🏻
You are so "radiant and relevant" Nikol!! It's so sad how brave and disgusting people, especially women, are on these platforms! They feel they can say things they would never have the courage to say to their faces. UGH!! You are so refreshing to watch and look forward to all of your videos!! \o/
Thank-you for not letting your success go to your head as many on social media have. You're an absolutely beautiful person, inside and out. ❤
I love you, Nikol! I struggle at my tea house dealing with negative comments. I really admire what you do snd appreciate you. You always brighten my day and give me hope. Thank you for being such a blessing.
Nikol, it’s refreshing that you want to support other women. I love it! My motto has been that we must elevate others if we want to elevate ourselves.
I love the eye shadow primer. I am glad that you mentioned how sometimes we just don’t feel that we are at our best. I gained weight that I have not been able to lose. So for now I keep taking care of myself and exercising while I manage my weight. I also started to buy clothes that make me feel better as I am today. Thank you for your honesty and transparency.
Nikol, you are so beautiful with or without! Love your wonderful tutorials, especially with your gorgeous makeup! I'm 70, and my granddaughter and I both use these principles! Thank you!
Thank you so much. I found your channel while I was on medical stress leave and found a new restored desire to pamper myself. I got back to a skin care routine and used your tutorials to learn how to apply makeup for a mature woman. I love how I have been able to experiment and try colors I would have never tried before. I have a new found self love. I am not only mature but plus size. I decided to dress how I have always wanted in a classy boho chic, and finally feel good in my body and myself. Thank you thank you!
I enjoyed watching this video - first one I have watched! I love how real you are and that you can demonstrate that makeup just adds to your beauty. Truth: I like you both ways. You are so enjoyable to listen to.
I love what you said about the scarcity mindset... we HAVE to get in our heads that there is ENOUGH for everyone. Let's stop putting others down. It's not healthy. Let's cheers and lift each other up!!!
Hello Nikol, this is Cate. I have been watching you for a few years now I think you are just awesome and so honest and such a beautiful human being. You are so right when we are happy for others and wish them well. We also get more goodies for ourselves. I love this video of not pretending, because it really shows the true essence of who you are the soul essence it’s not just about the physical because the physical attributes are so fleeting. Anyway, thank you Nikol for being so courageous to be yourself make up or no make up❣️
Hi Nikol, I have been watching you for the last 6 months and have been wearing makeup since I was 14 years old, which was over 60 years ago. I thought I knew everything their was about makeup but realized I didn't. You have taught me so many little tricks I can't believe what a difference it makes in the finished look. I will continue to watch your videos everyday sometimes twice a day snd always learn something new everytime. Thank you for your time and knowledge.❤❤ You are absolutely stunning and classy.
Thank you for your support
@Virginia Here's a confession I've never made before- when I was in 6th grade Mrs. Dalrimple😟 sent me home(embarrassed me)because I wore makeup to school(my mom didn't know). I've worn a full face of makeup for 50 years. I love makeup🤷 and it has had a big place in my life. I have worn minimal makeup for the last 2 years d/t income(I've never worn drug store makeup). I found that people interact with me completely different when I'm not wearing makeup. It's been nice. But it's still not appropriate for professional situations🤷🙂
SO refreshing that you walk to the beat of your own drum! Knowing yourself and projecting confidence is so attractive! Yes, you are a beautiful woman and I'm here for the great tutorials for mature beauty, but wanted to let you know that your beauty goes beyond the physical. Rock on, my friend!
Thanks for this. I love watching your videos even though I do very little makeup and dress very casually since I live in rural New Mexico. It’s great to keep things simple but I enjoy how you glam things up and I take pointers from you frequently. Your style is incredible.
I absolutely love your message and keeping it real in a fake world! You are a rare gem! ❤
You are my hero. You deal with the problems ALL women must deal with and you do it so honestly! Thank you! I love your “you do you” attitude. You deal with real life and real faces. Thank you. I choose to spend my money frugally but am grateful that you show me makeup that will work for whatever issues I may have so I am not wasting money if I buy something you have shown me. As a 75 year old woman I do so appreciate you and your honesty. Thank you again!
Nikol I can't tell you how much I admire you. I've watched so many of your videos, they're upbeat, they're informational, and you offer wonderful guidance. I love your style and your hair is fabulous. It looks so lovely on you and convinced me to let my grey come out during Covid times. I've coloured my hair since I was 18, streaks, highlights, roots, you name it. I am now a natural salt-and-pepper gray and I love it. I've had people stop me and ask if I have it done in a salon and one lady tapped my shoulder in the grocery store just to let me know how much she loved my hair. You made me brave enough to give it a go and I will never go back!
I love your honesty and transparency. I really appreciate that you support other women. Gosh I love that blue eyeshadow. I wish it came in a single color.
I feel you, it can be wild out there online!
I love that you come from a place of abundance and showing support for other women. Respect ❤
Nikol, One of the things I find so refreshing about you and your channel is how uplifting you are. Those that cut down and criticize others are the people with low self-esteem. Please continue to "take the high road" I appreciate it. I wish mean people would realize that what they say about others says more about them than it says about those they are talking about.
Once again, you astound me with your advanced evolution! You are so kind and evolved; we would all do well to follow your sage advise. Keep doing what you’re doing…..1 million followers can’t be wrong!
You are a breath of fresh air, and so inspiring! I was a cosmetics buyer, for a large well known store based in Dallas Tx and I have to tell you, the business was vicious to women. Even firing the Chanel rep when she turned 45! It was cruel and an eye opener. So cutthroat.
I love you Nikol! You are SUCH A GOOD EXAMPLE OF A MIGHTY STRONG WOMAN!!! Thank you for being a positive energy for us and a beacon for all women. 🌹
You always have such positive things to say to your subscribers about women. I enjoy this part of your videos as well as the make-up applications. Thanks!
You really know how to lift people up. I really needed it today. Thank you. You are special never doubt it!
I am 74, live in Canada and watching and listening to you passing on to us your joy of make up and fashion just makes my day. Stay true to who you are and don’t ever feel alone you have all of us. 💕hugs.
Beautiful blue!!!! Not quite the blue I tried to pull off in the 70's, thank goodness!! I want to say, you are real, you are kind and I smile all the way through your videos!!! Wish I lived in Florida to have you teach me how to wear makeup!! Thanks for the joy you give!!!❤
Nikol, you are so lovely....both inside and out. Your videos are empowering for women of all ages. You have a loyal following of viewers who appreciate your honesty and courage. Keep being your wonderful, fabulous, gorgeous self!
Ms. Nikol, i really enjoy hanging out with you💖🌼. A very swell person. I was a mgr for Macy's for ten years and i learned so much i feel like everything i needed to know about life i learned at Macy's! Not fashion alone. How to dress, how to behave, how to listen, i fell in love with so many beautiful and smart women, who were generous with information 🐞. Now, since my first day working at the Stanford Shopping Center Macys i wanted a St John LBD. I still want my St John LBD, what am i waiting for! Stay Swell💖
I so enjoy your blog. I am 74 and get so much out of them. I have always had oily skin which in my youth was bothersome but has saved my skin fro wrinkling so I still enjoy playing with makeup. I too have skin discoloration and I love your eye primer for that alone even though I don’t do shadow very often. Also love your bb cream and color correcting pencils. Keep encouraging women of all ages to feel beautiful. You are beautiful inside as well as outside.
Low vibrational energy is to be ignored! Agreed! Carry on with your talent where you direct your thoughts your energy flows! You are a positive person with so much to offer, I don’t even where make up on a daily basis! But when I do I watch some of my favorite reels you shared in the past for direction! Thank you!
Thank you for all you do for women! You have inspired me with your fabulous makeup tutorials and makeup line. I’m obsessed with how your makeup looks on me. I’m 59, have lost 100# and feel like a wrinkled up old woman, but your makeup looks amazing on! I am going to stop criticizing myself and enjoy my life just as I am. Again, thank you for all you do!
Love what you said about there is enough to go around for everyone and how you support, celebrate, and wish everyone the best.
Gorgeous look and I’m with you, flush all that negative BS, we don’t need it!!! Keep doing what you’re doing, love your videos and tutorials, always so helpful and inspiring xoxo
