I Buried My Makeup Routine In A Time Capsule

hello you guys James Charles here and

welcome back to my YouTube channel I

hope you're having a great day because I

am not no no no I am not there's been an

emergency here at the Charles household

this morning a big emergency actually

okay I recently hired some new gardeners

to come in and redo some of my

Landscaping now that it is summertime

they're so lovely they came here bright

and early this morning to get started

and they knocked on my door and said

James we need you to come outside

there's an emergency and I said did one

of my ferns pass away is the lavender

overtaking the garden are my hydrangeas

not blooming at the time that they

should they said no just just come take

a look they had dug a hole to put in a

new plant only to discover an 8T deep

sink hole underneath my driveway let

that sink in no pun intended an 8T deep

sinkhole underneath my driveway you

shove your little head down there it is

literally just a pit into the ground at

any point if a car parks in the wrong

spot or if somebody even walks over the

wrong driveway tile my entire home could

collapse and fall into the ground so

obviously I'm scared for both my safety

my friends safety my team's safety and

I'm also scared for my bank account

because this is going to cost me

thousands and thousands of dollars and I

have no idea if an insurance claim will

actually cover it so I got to thinking

holes met on grinder on a weekly basis

do I climb into this hole do I dig this

hole even bigger into a fun little

addition to my basement and then then it

finally hit me a time capsule a time

capsule is a really really great way to

preserve and memorialize a moment in

time and I figured obviously I love

doing makeup it is my biggest passion it

is my job that I'm so grateful for but

it's also an industry that is constantly

changing so if I do a makeup routine

bury it and then in you know 5 10 50

years from now somebody could dig it up

and we could look back and see what were

the makeup trends of the time whether

it's my kids my grandkids well honestly

that's not happening I'm not having any

whether it's somebody else's kids

somebody else's grandkids aliens that

are inhabiting the Earth 50 years from

now but I thought I should do my updated

current 2024 makeup routine and we can

put it inside a time capsule bury it in

my fun little driveway sinkhole and then

in the future we can look back and see

what everyone was getting Glam like

let's get into

it honestly if you think about it this

video Ed of itself like is a time

capsule Louis when we bury this box we

should put a QR code in it so whoever

discovers it's in 50 years can scan the

QR code and find this

video I literally a genius like hello

regardless okay if you're watching in

2024 or if you're watching in

2070 hello go ahead and give this video

a big thumbs up down below your love and

support really helps out the channel

quite a lot and if you have not already

of course click that subscribe button

down below as well as the bell icon next

to it so you guys never miss an upload

from me let's start off with some primer

now as I kind of go through each step of

my routine I feel like I'll do a little

trip down memory lane of like what the

product has actually meant to the makeup

Community I've been doing makeup for 8

years now but so many Trends and

products and product types have come and

gone people's opinions of different

steps have changed if it's changing that

much in only 8 years what will makeup

routines actually look like like 50

years from now it's crazy to think about

primer especially is one step where I

feel like people are constantly changing

their minds and types of primers that

they like to use when I first got into

makeup honestly I didn't even believe in

primer sometimes to this day I'm still

like what is this really doing if if

we're being honest I really didn't use

primer for a very long time until Miss

Nikki tutorials started talking about

the Nivea men's After Shave balm and

that's what got me into using primer cuz

I was like oh that's fun then we kind of

got into the trend of like using

moisturizer which I still do all the

time currently using the Bobby Brown

face base then we kind of got into that

trend of like the poor filling primers

we had benefit professional we had the

tatcha silk canvas that was like my Holy

Grail for years and years and years and

years then we were like the sticky

primers we had like milk hydr grip still

sitting right here on the makeup counter

we had the elf jellypop primer and now I

feel like everyone's using different

I hope that in 50 years from now

somebody has figured out an actual face

primer okay and when I say actual face

primer I mean I want that to turn

you into a porcelain doll on

your face okay if I am 90 years old and

I'm able to find a primer that I can put

on and make my face look 24 you better

bet I am paying every doar bank account

to have that let's get on that

scientists in the future let's move on

to Foundation now for foundation I'm

going to use the this cream foundation

from William Tuttle this has been my

go-to favorite for a bit now look at the

coverage on that like unreal so good

this has been like my go-to foundation

for the last couple of months just

because it wears nicely and it

photographs really beautifully as well

and I am filming a video with my friend

today we're going to a ghost ship hello

you guys know me okay I love all things

horror I love all things spooky so

spending the night on a ghost ship sign

me the up I cannot wait if I'm

going to die or get possessed at least

I'll look pretty while doing it you know

no similar to primer Foundation is

another step that has really gone

through a large roller coaster since

even I got started in the makeup

industry now if you guys all remember my

original YouTube videos okay I was using

that makeup forever HD

foundation stick in every single video

it was so full coverage and so the wrong

color I was really dumb enough to think

as long as I blended it far enough down

my neck that nobody would notice and

Trust and Believe okay people notice

over and over and over again by the way

I'm just layering on my Maybelline

superstay with my painted sponge right

over top to get the most amount of

coverage little crazy I used to use

cream foundations then I switched to

liquid forever I was using the Born This

Way Foundation still one of my go-tos

we've had aerosol foundations we've had

gel foundations we've had cream

foundations it is like one of the most

saturated markets on planet Earth at

this point but still in 2024 we can't

create inclusive shade ranges this is

the darkest shade of the Euphoria

Foundation this is black face paint

H hopefully by 2050 we'll have solved

this problem Lord knows that I hope so

that is the base all done okay we have

our little box primer

see in 50 years Foundation adios and

Foundation painted sponge let's move on

to the next step now for Contour I'm

going to use my Patrick T cream Contour

this is in the shade she's sculpted I

love this product it's been a ride or

die for a long time now and honestly

contouring has really not changed much

throughout my makeup routine or like the

makeup community in general Kevin aquan

the OG makeup Legend is kind of known as

like the adventure of Contour then we

had Scott Barnes and JLo and then I feel

like makeup by Mario and Kim really

really really popularize it and honestly

ever since then it's kind of been the

same I feel like every year somebody

goes viral being like you're contouring

all wrong this is how you should really

be contouring and people pay attention

for like maybe 5 Seconds cuz it's going

to get Tik Tok virality but then we

always go back to the same okay

it's a classic 3 where it's on the

forehead into the temple down the

cheekbone and then onto the jaw same

looks flattering on every single

person so it's going to be my go-to from

now until 2070 the only thing that

really has changed for me has been my

nose Contour because when I first

started doing makeup I could not figure

out how to do it for the life of me and

now it's like my favorite step you know

oh you know what even though Contour

techniques haven't changed you know what

has the amount of Contour people are

using when I first got started the

makeup industry girlies were literally

contouring out their cheekbones using a

dark brown powder it was all about

literally reshaping your entire face

whereas now I feel like it's a bit more

about enhancing your natural features

Contour right into the memory box Time

Capsule it's all the same now for

blush I'm going to go into little my

painted blushes I'm so excited for you

guys to have these in your collection

they're coming soon I talked a lot about

these over on our painted Tik Tok and

about the production delays and all the

different stories behind this so go

check it out if you're not following us

over there at painted I'm just going to

go in with our j15 brush also coming

soon this is like this beautiful peachy

color now blush has really been

something that has changed a lot when I

first started doing makeup I did not

believe in blush I just thought that it

was stupid I just did not think that it

looked very good on me and I also

thought that I didn't have room for it

on my face I swear to God that is quoted

in some of the OG James Charles YouTube

videos I don't know why my cheekbones

are very high up so I don't really have

enough room in my face for Contour blush

and highlighter but now I'm obsessed

with it you guys know it's like one of

my favorite steps and I honestly feel

like as the years progress we get more

and more and more obsessed with blush

like we just keep adding more and more

on top I'm curious to see what blush

tens will even look like a couple of

years from now let alone 50 in the

future because our entire faces might be

red which is crazy to think about then

on top I'm going to grab this super pale

pink one okay and I'm going to go in

with a smaller little cream blush and

I'm going to use this as like my kind of

like in between color it's called mid

blushing and I love doing this to blend

together a concealer shade and a blush

and I am not realizing I haven't put on

concealer yet so this step is virtually

useless okay James what a genius

concealer for me honestly has not

changed at all I still go back to my

tarte shape tape all the time sue me

it's great it really is good although

I've tried a ton of other ones and do

enjoy other ones let me be clear if it

ain't broke don't fix it I have changed

a couple things about it though I

definitely use a lot less than I used to

it was crazy how much concealer I used

to use and now I've kind of learned that

less is more although sometimes I do end

up layering a lot on so I don't really

know I also used to do it right after

foundation and now I always wait until

after contouring and blush because I do

feel like it helps melt everything

together a little bit more oh I guess I

need to grab my painted sponge back out

of the Time Capsule she's not done just

yet you can blend this right in now see

how when we go right over top of that

blush with the concealer it just looks

like I'm blushing from within ooh it's

so pretty and Smo smooth all blend it

together perfect do one last little Pat

of the cream blush over top just to help

blend it all together ooh it's so pretty

I think you're going to open it up and

you're going to be shocked on how much

you used in a similar way you'll be

shocked about Contour in the past

Foundation I wouldn't put it past me

okay let's go ahead and put the painted

blushes straight into the Time Capsule

that's a little a little Easter EG

towards what's to come with these oh

okay can't say anymore can't say anymore

now for powder I've been using a mixture

of two recently starting off with my

Maybelline Fit Me pressed powder in the

shade fair I love this one because it's

really brightening so I always use this

right underneath my eyes to get that

nice bright under eye and then I go in

with my Huda Beauty powder all over the

rest of my face now powder I feel like

is definitely one of those things that

has changed a lot over the years people

have started using it less and less and

less this is one step where I really

have not followed the trend because I'm

never going to be a dewy skin Foundation

still wet natural clean makeup type of

girl it's just just not my vibe okay

what has changed for me is I don't bake

anymore um that was a big Trend in 2016

and it really does help to like brighten

your face and obviously okay we have

quite a lot of powder underneath here

so maybe I am

baking I want it to be matte I want it

to be set I want it to be powdery but I

don't want it to be cakey and when I

used to bake all the time that is how my

skin would sometimes look more textur

than it actually was now we're going to

basically go in and reinforce all of the

cream and liquid work we just did with

powders and these steps honestly have

not changed for me at all in fact okay

I'm still using the same Anastasia Bly

Hills Contour kit that I had in 2016

once again if ooh if it ain't broke

don't fix it and this has never done me

wrong okay love her just going to

basically go in and reinforce some of

those Contours because the powder can

sometimes take it away I'm going to use

a little bit of my benefit hoola bronzer

once again same I've been using for

the last 8 years now it's just so

beautiful works every single time that

forehead is a little dark don't worry

we're going to fix it up with some under

eye powder going to use my Mac suit

Studio fix once again I've been using

this for years ride or die then lastly

we'll just go in with a little bit more

of that painted blush right on top using

the other end of our j15 and we'll just

layer that right over the cheek now all

of these right into the Time

Capsule okay too much blush I see what

you

mean I'm looking back even right now and

thinking that it's too much I can't even

imagine what I'll be thinking in 50

years I'm going to give my face a nice

Spritz of some setting spray so far this

is the Charlotte tobery one this is my

absolute favorite setting spray right

now it does such a beautiful job of

setting everything in place but also

melting the skin kind of together and

this has been my favorite for quite a

while now I can't even fit this one in

there oh no I can't give that away I

can't I have to put the f one in there I

love my jumbo size way too much

Charlotte really did something with this

one let me tell you let's zoom in and

move on to the brows and the eyes now

for brows I'm going to keep this one

short and sweet okay we've all seen my

brow transformation it's no secret that

I used to have brows and now

they're much better still to some

people I'm sure okay but to me there's

been a massive Improvement started off

with the dip brow we loved a good old

thick gigantic brow then we switched to

pencils for a while and now still love a

good little pencil but now I do a

combination of both pencil and brow

marker just to add in those hairlike

Strokes that's my favorite way to get

the perfect shaped and sculpted but not

thick Sharpie

brow into the box now for shadow today

of course we're going to be using the

basic cvus literally my number one

favorite and honestly your guys' number

one favorite too if the whole point of a

time capsule is to preserve a momento in

time she is the it girl she is the

moment you guys know over the years

palettes have quickly become the most

popular item in the makeup Community

every week there is a new pallet

launching with a new brand there are

literally millions on the market so it

is very hard especially these days for a

palette to launch and get people's

attention but it's even harder for it to

stay relevant over time I was so

grateful to be able to do with my morphe

palette years ago and now the fact that

the basic canvas is actually staying

relevant after launching a couple of

months ago means literally the entire

world to us here at painted so so thank

you guys so much for your support in

today's makeup look I'm just doing a

super simple little glittery pink cut

crease nothing crazy but on that note I

do want to bring back colorful Shadow

soon because as much as I feel beautiful

and gorgeous in this makeup look okay

I'm over it I want to go back to colors

I want to go back to fun and I'm well

aware okay if this sinkhole in my

driveway isn't what takes out my house

it might be a bomb for one of you guys

if I don't release the color palette

with painted sometime soon and Trust and

Believe okay it is coming so you can

hold fire it'll be out one day but until

then we're going to stick with the the

simple little cute boring basic glance

by 2050 when somebody unearths this

little time capsule they better be

wearing a rainbow cut crease let

me tell you okay maybe we need to add

like a technology little eye scanner if

they don't have some sort of sticking

makeup look on the box won't open we are

back both eyes are not complete I added

on mascara and lashes nothing has

changed with mascara curries are still

doing it exactly the same I honestly

feel like that is just going to be to

the end of time we all love a good

little lash and as for fake lashes not

much has really changed either I just

feel like before everyone's lashes were

gigantic and to be fair those girlies

still exist I just feel like now there's

a better balance of the gigantic lash

wearing girlies and the more natural

lash wearing girlies and I feel like I'm

kind of somewhere in between these are

the ones that I chose for today let's

move on to highlighter highlighter is

another step similar to like primer and

Foundation that has really gone through

a lot of trials and tribulations and

waves throughout its history of the

beauty Community okay it wasn't a thing

for a very long time then it really hit

the community like a storm

everybody was literally digging their

brushes into some glittery ass

highlighters okay spritzing them 50

times with setting spray until their

brushes were soaking wet and then

scrubbing it on their cheekbones and

somehow we were all delusional enough to

think that it looked good okay everybody

was trying to Blind the aliens in

space with the highlighters then we all

got over it everyone was kind of into

matte skin and now I don't know what is

going on but you are into

highlighter again what I'm excited to

use today are these brand new rare

Beauty like highlighter blushes look at

that you can literally see my makeup

light reflecting in it that is beautiful

and this is kind of more what I'm into

where it's like shiny blush as opposed

to like a glittery highlight so I've

never tried this before and I'm letting

you know now okay if I like this this is

not going in my time capsule I'm keeping

this for myself cuz I want to get some

good use out of this and it was sold out

at Sephora okay this is in the shade

happy yeah look at that oh I

love that wait that is so pretty it's

like the perfect amount of like

reflection so it looks healthy and glowy

but it doesn't look glittery it just

looks like a nice glow from within which

is very much what I'm into right now if

we are bringing back highlighters at all

okay you you're already y'all are

already pushing me a little bit too much

we're on the line right now okay and

we're going to stay there but

this I got to keep an eye on for selener

cuz she has some good ones I can't put

it in I can't put it in I need to use it

again

last but not least let's do the lips I'm

going to line my lips today using

Anastasia Beverly Hills cool Brown lip

liner for lips I feel like the trends

really haven't changed that much there's

just been new products that have come

out that have gotten better and better

making the lip experience more enjoyable

but for me I did get my lip filler

dissolved when I first started doing

makeup I had a tiny little white boy

lips I was overlining the absolute

out of them so I got filler so I didn't

have to do that but after like 6 years

of layering filler over top and over top

and over top of each it basically

started to get nasty so I got it all

dissolved and now we are back to our

tiny little white boy lips and

overlining them so I guess that's really

been the only thing that's

changed lips done let's set this in

place we're going to use two today

starting off with Charlotte Tilbury I

love this thing then I'm just going to

layer some one size on Till Dawn right

over top and we are done here is our

2024 makeup Time Capsule all complete

and here is the makeup look that we

created today I feel really really

beautiful I love how this makeup look

turned out it is definitely an accurate

depiction of like my goto Glam right now

and I feel like a reflection of kind of

what is trendy in the makeup space but

although this makeup look is done this

video is not it's time to pack up our

little time capsule and let's go bury it

in the ground let's get the sponge in

there I think that's everything we're

going to put our basic canvas let's put

the lid on top see you in 50 years we

have our time capsule all full of our

product you guys look at this are you

kidding me with this it's a literal hole

to nothing can you see how deep it is on

camera you can't even tell it's

literally gigantic my house is going to

collapse my 2024 makeup routine

all my favorite products inside I'll see

you in 50 years nice little gloss stain

on the front okay here we go look at how

deep it's going look at how deep it's

going look at how deep it's going okay

it's at the bottom and now we say

goodbye the team will be here tomorrow

morning to fill in the hole and I guess

that's it I have no idea when or who is

even going to discover this but

hopefully whenever they do they'll be

able to put together my favorite makeup

routine and see how we did makeup in

2024 who knows maybe if I'm still making

YouTube videos in 2070 I'll have to come
