Hey Kandee...This comment doesn't really have anything to do with your post but...I am a fan of yours who loves to do makeup and have fun with that sort of thing...I
have been watching some of the videos on YouTube and just wanted to put my two cents in...I saw the
video where you were sad and had your feelings hurt....usually I will listen to a song or eat cookies when I feel sad hahah..... but after coming to your blog and reading everything on this website I have never felt so inspired to
be a better person....you remind me of myself...you are fun and silly, pretty inside and out....your words have Really touched me...not only can I learn how to do a cute pin up makeup look but you have also shown me to be a better person inside....I'm sure things for you are rather difficult right now from your leg to everday hustle and bustle of life.... but I know I speak for all of your fans when i say that I hope we can give back the same amount of encouragement and confidence that you share with us on a constant basis....stay strong and keep the videos/blogs coming....they do so much more for people than you know....you remind me of a song lyric haha "all smiles and sunshine, a perfect world on a perfect day, everything always works out, I have never felt so great." :)

IMATS was super fun and it was great meeting you and your mom. 40 years old and new career? I think I'll like this gig.

Sookie said...

Kandee, this is probably going to be ackward because I don't give or recieve compliments all that well. But, you have brought so much joy and hope in my life. I love your make-up tutorials, not because they are teaching me how to make myself more beautiful. But, they teach me how to make myself FEEL more beautiful.

I have dealt with crushing depression and awfully low self esteem during my twenties and I am just now coming out of that. I found your videos about a month or two ago and your blog not long after. You are such a positive person despite some things that you have been through and that brings me so much hope for my life.

Your blog, your videos, your pictures, they all give me hope that I can continue to overcome the depression and bipolar that have held be back from living my dreams and living the best life that I can live.

You have helped me see that it is possible.

I thank you Kandee, and if it were possible, I would give you the biggest hug I can muster.

coxynell said...

Peachy! You should do a tutorial someday on "how to look great on pictures" since you're always fabulous on them!! Enjoy your glaminar :D

The Woven Life said...

Congratulations! You are an inspiration to all of us out here trying to carve a place for ourselves in this crazy and amazing world. Keep weaving your life!

Unknown said...

Wow! Amazing :)

Unknown said...

Oh,Kandee... I wish I could be there and say hello and hug you! I wish I could visit IMATS and your Glaminar. But, actually, I live in Russia, so I have no opportunity for that. Love you, you're so amazing and kind, thank you for the inspiration!!! You are the best!! Love you!
Nataly.

Christine said...

Great pictures! You are so beautiful! I've been lurking around on You Tube for a couple of months because I've been in a funk with my career (health care related - totally burnt out!). I was looking for encouragement to start doing my makeup/hair again (messy bun/just masacara have been as far as I go since college - and I'm 31 now!). Well, I found it!!! You are amazing Kandee - thank you for ALL your videos & blogs. Keep up the great work & know that you are never alone in what you go through. You say that you are a bit of a "loner" (yeah, me too) and it can be hard for weirdos like us to open up and just share our frustrations. Don't ever hestitate to, because God will provide you with the strength you need through the most unlikely people sometimes!! Hugs & blessings, Kara :o) (KaraLovesScotty on You Tube)

Sara_Berry said...

I'm sure you've heard it a million times, but your mama is so gorgeous. It is obvious where you get your stunning looks from! Such a cute mama daughter team!
Good luck with the Glaminars Kandee, Lord know's I wish I could go!

Recently subscribed to your blog (about maybe a month ago) but I absolutely love it. You are such an inspiration! If you have your Glaminar every year, I'd love to attend next year. Keep doing the GLAM thing! That's one thing we have in common. -AcademyofGlam

Anonymous said...

P.S. Another thing I love about you is...you actually USE your products. You have no shame in showing us your broken/almost used stuff. It shows that you really value each product you buy and don't let them go to waste. A lot of other You Tuber's get all braggy because they have a "dent" in their stuff (which is fine!) but you are different! :o) Kara

Looked like a fun day http://caricollazo.blogspot.com

Kandee, you're smile is drop dead Gorgeous! You're simply too beautiful. Lots of Love!!! ~Christine from Maui

Lindsay said...

you were all over the place at IMATS lol i was so sad not to be able to join to glaminar this round it had been a crazy week my daddy had a heart attack last weekend (fathers day weekend) and spent fathers day in the ER and with all the craziness that followed i fell so behind this week so i couldn't even spend both days at IMATS like i had planned but at least I got to go sat and it was so great! I saw you briefly at urban decay booth then at the nyx booth (i think you were picking up goodies) and then at the naimies booth at the end of the day anyways it was awesome to see one of my biggest inspirations (next to my dad of course) in person hope glaminars went great! i hope to be at the next one in cali, whenever that may be

Daniela said...

It was so awesome meeting you at IMATS and the Glaminars! You were exactly the amazing person I thought you would be.
xoxo Daniela

Trishica said...

And thank u so so soooooo much for the gift bags. all the goodies u had were amazing, and as a scholarship winner I was not expecting anything so the nyx bags were a wonderful surprise.

To meet maxine.

Kandee you are such a great person. More people in this world need to be like you!! I love reading your posts. I read some to my mom and we always end of teary eyed! They inspire me everyday! You have taught me sooo much and I cherish you for that. I love you!!

Melly said...

You all are gorgeous, especially your mom! Hope you had a great time :)

Siegle and Company said...

Hi Kandee! Just wanna tell ya that I think you are AWWWEEEE...SOME! Thank you for your youtube videos, blogs, and all of your inspirational words. I have been dealing with cystic acne since college...I have suffered to say the least with how to put on make-up properly and just skin care in general. I only wish I would have found you earlier in life. I'm 31 now and skin is clear, but still deal with large pores, acne scars and poc marks. I love your videos, but how do I work with large "holes in my skin...(mostly on the cheek and around the mouth area?) I've become a more confident person since reading your blog and love myself so much more than caring about what other's think of me.(THAnK YOU....Reading God's word helps too hee hee) You should really get together with your sister and write a book together. Put both of your loving kindness into it, your artwork and all the love you both have pouring out of you.............just a thought...I'd buy it for sure, anyways any tips you may have for me would be awesome, I know you are super busy lady and really don't expect a respons, but I thought I'd give'r a whirl.....THank you soooooo much for all the inspiration and all the advice I wish I would have had growing up. I guess it's never too late! By the way, my 10 year old loves you and wants to be just like you! Thanks again, Shanna Siegle(see glee)

Props for continuing to inspire many hopeless and hopefuls.

Your such an inspriation to me! I found you on youtube and you helped me with all my make-up questions I loved it! And I want to be able to follow my dreams one day like you and accomplish everything that I want too. I just dont know how you did it and made a name for youself?!!? Once again thank you! =]

Urbangirl said...

I had a ball there too and I enjoyed meeting you and your mom :)

Thinking about your leg wound.

If you want to cover it up you could ask your nurse/doc about surgical tape. It costs slightly over a dollar. You can get it a medical supply stores - not drug stores. It's thinner than paper & semi-transparent. Makeup will sink through it though, so you couldn't put makeup on the tape directly over any open wound. I hope that idea helps! - Kirsten

Deborah said...

I love watching your youtube videos on hair and makeup, but I'm here now to tell you that you are so DARN CUTE! Really, the cutest girl.

So than you don't have to have a license in anything to go to shows if JulieG, and Judy from It's Judy Time was there.
