I think the idea of this is great and would be very helpful to ladies over 50 but I wonder if the model is over 50 and it’s very difficult to see how the makeup is applied to the eyes because the eye furthest from the camera is used. I think the camera focuses too much on the make up artist and not the actual application of the techniques.

Can’t argue with that, Cathy. But we were piggybacking on a private tutorial, so we had to do the best we could. Hope it was of some use, anyway. TW

I love this concept. But because I live out in deepest Cornwall our connection won’t let me play this tutorial or any of the others :( Could you list the products recommended in each one so at least I know what Mary recommends. Hopefully thanks. Liz

We’ll ask the IT dept what they can do to connect you. Failing that, we’ll try to oblige with the product list in the new year.. TW
