Nikkie from Nikkie Tutorials started this “The Power of Makeup” challenge on YouTube in which she transformed half of her face as super glam and left the other half; bare with absolutely no makeup on.
As Nikkie described, the power of makeup is simply a message for people who think makeup is a “bad” thing.
I think every girl can relate to this. I mean, I like my natural look (I love it actually) but I also love trying on different looks and styles. Makeup is not something I put on as a mask because I hate my natural self.
I’ve seen a lot of posts like these on Facebook where people tell that girls don’t need a lot of makeup, no need to feel insecure or they use makeup to impress boys. Well, let me just say this on behalf of many makeup artists and makeup lovers, that we DON’T put makeup to impress boys.
We definitely don’t hate our natural self. Personally speaking, I love myself bare faced but being an artist it’s sooo fun to play with colors and trying out different looks is my passion.
Applying makeup is just my way of expressing my personality. It’s a way to enhance my natural features than to hide them.
I wanna request to EVERYONE that If you see girls on Instagram with or in real life with ton of makeup, please don’t label as “insecure” or “over dramatic” or “idiots” 😛 We just love Makeup 😀
I like playing with colors be that on my face or a canvas 😀
‘Some people collect stamps, I collect lipsticks‘ is what Vivian would say to people when they furrow their brow and struggle to understand the love for all things cosmetics.
Without further ado, I’m gonna list 7 of my favorite Makeup transformations on YouTube that will blow your mind and change the whole concept of thinking makeup as a ‘crime’.

So cool I like these Makeup transformations, especially the video n.2 🙂 Great!
Me too!
I think it’s great that we have the option to use make-up to transform ourselves when we want to.
Couldn’t agree more!!
Makeup can be a powerful tool and confidence booster. I totally agree with you as it being a form of expressing yourself. Great post!
Thank you so much! I agree with you it is a confidence booster regardless of what someone thinks.
It is interesting to see the “power of makeup” especially when it can help with the way you feel about yourself. There is nothing wrong with a bare face, but there is also nothing wrong with a little makeup to enhance our beauty or just for fun.
Totally agree with you!
So cool! lovely makeup transformations!

Love love this post. I love wearing makeup , having acne scars I really feel upset if I don’t wear makeup. Wearing make up really uplifts my mood and gives me confidence.
Got acne scars myself and am so glad for all these makeup brands! I’m so glad you liked my post.
Makeup is a powerful tool! These transformations are amazing!
I know right!
I’m not big into makeup, but I so respect the talent and artistry of people who are!
Me neither! I can only apply makeup on myself.
Damn I need to work on my makeup skills . These people are talented!
hahaha Writing this post was quite distracting for me as well 😀
I love make-up. It’s like my armour, particularly if I am having a rough day. If I put on the make-up then my mood immediately lifts. Thanks for sharing 🙂
I know right??? even a lipstick brightens up my mood 😛
So Interesting. Love the transformations.
