Hello everybody and welcome back to another video.
Today, we're going to be doing a few things
Basically, I was looking for a gif? gif? the other day
And I was looking through the ones that were made for me and this one popped up.
I don't know who made this.
Actually, I probably do but uh yeah
this exists in the gifs world on Twitter
here the person is trying
to outline the differences between me and real life
because this was taken from a live video and screenshotted to my photos
It's just angles and lighting.
I'm just kidding. I need to admit something now
I had a secret weapon.
I was going through my junk drawer here the other day
And I found this old camera that I used to use and I thought this must be fate like
My old photos coming back.
This old camera I used to use. I need to make a video where I
I need to make a video where I expose my old photos
on this particular camera
and explain to you how I would make them and produce them and produce this whole image
so the camera that I used was actually this one.
This is the casio
EXTR 15
Honestly I feel like this camera was made for me because it has my initials TR in it.
And I love anything with a good TR.
My first email was actually TR_waytoocool@hotmail.com
After the wrestler but I saw girls using this here in Hong Kong.
This is from when was this like
I think five or six years ago when I was living here,
so this is pre-Japan.
I have a few phases, this is really old like Taylor 1.0.
And then I got the new version of this camera
it was a pink one and I don't know where that is right now
But that was like a year after I was in Japan
which things got a little bit more escalated,
so that's Taylor 2.0.
This is Taylor 1.0, so this is just like the Dolly style.
The makeup and but not like to the full
So the reason I got this camera was
because it let me live my best kawaii dolly wip life
It enhances, I say that very lightly
it photoshop's your features basically for you
It instantly makes your eyes a bit larger
and makes your jaw line a bit slimmer
and gives you this like
Alien look that I saw after so much during those years
I would get called over it all the time back then,
people would be like oh, that's really photoshopped.
And I would be like, No it's not, I didn't Photoshop it at all.
Which technically was true, I didn't it was a camera.
I haven't looked at this
ince 2013 when I stopped using it
So I have no idea what's inside
and I'm kind of terrified to look at it.
It's been dead ever since
I just found in my drawer
I started charging it this morning so that we could view the contents,
so I'm just gonna go ahead and
Whoo
Honestly, I still kind of like this
It makes my makeup look amazing
you can see what it does, it makes your forehead super long
makes your chin and jaw line smaller
and makes your eyes bigger
Which was exactly the look I was going for before
And it makes your skin look smooth
and younger and brighter
and your blushes more pink.
Everything's a bit more pink tone maybe.
Alright, let's expose TayTay 1.0
This is a great picture to start off with
you can see in the back here, there's this light box
So I would even use not only is like this perfects your skin and the lighting and like
manipulates your face,
but I would even further set up light boxes
to look even more perfect
There's one up in the ceiling cause I would set it up there to make this
to make this shine on my hair so that my hair looked extra shiny.
A lot of you guys were like oh I loved your hair before
it looked so soft and shiny and now you kind of like don't do anything with it,
but like it honestly never looked like that in real life.
This is fake. I was so fake. Okay
Moving on
This seems like I was doing a
light testing or something cause I had to do that before I actually took the picture and did makeup okay
So then we have a couple full-body ones, which you kind of can't see really clearly the effects of the camera
I'm pretty sure I posted these anyways look so blurry
So here's me
posing in a blitz doll shop kind of like look at me
Look at these dolls, please tell me I look like these dolls
What was it doing here?
Oh some job, Oh Christmas?
I was doing, I was modeling for an event
I literally would never show any emotion in my face
It would just be like
Woo I like my hair here
Oh my god, look at Rosie.
Oh my god. My old bed and Rosie.
She had a 1.0 kawaii version too.
I'm gonna save this story for another time, but I have a story about this event but here
I am wearing Liz Lisa to some big high fashion event in Hong Kong
Which I don't regret it at all.
I think I look amazing.
I don't have many. This was a trip to Japan
So the main difference between how I took my photos then versus now
was I wouldn't use this camera, which would Photoshop my face automatically
and I would look into the camera,
I would make my eyes as big as I possibly could
to the point where blood vessels were basically popping out
because I wouldn't blink
My eyes as big as possible both with Photoshop, makeup
and like holding it like this
I would smile as least as I possibly could
so that there wouldn't be any lines or wrinkles
or any sign that I'm human at all
basically just a little
or I'm show teeth slightly like a
Now I just take my Instagram photos with my phone
the iPhone takes really good quality photos
And I try to take them in good light
make them as sharp and clear as possible
And I honestly like to go in with facetune
Here I was working on this photo right now that I want to post later
And I like to sharpen everything
so it's kind of the opposite of what I used to do before
I like to have everything washed out and blurry and bright
But now I like to really sharpen the eyes and sharpen my features
and make everything pop more
so I sharpen the eyes with the sharpen tool
in facetune and a little bit on the mouth
and the highlight on my nose
And then I will put a filter on it. Usually I like the ones in after light
And then sometimes I'll like adjust the coloring when I upload it to Instagram
depending on how it will look like the brightness, the highlight,
the warmth and saturation
but that's basically all I do.
I'm gonna try and take photos in the old style
I was taking them
and maybe I can post one to Instagram
and see if you guys notice it.
Notice any Photoshop or like if it's like the old me or not
I even kept the old mirror I used.
Okay, so Taytay 1.0.
We draw her eyeliner
from the center of her eye
Straight out past the eyeline
This camera is too bright, the sun keeps changing,
then you go in with your eyeliner to
color in between
the fake waterline that you created and your real one
and I used to use white
but I don't have a white one anymore because I never use it
But I'm gonna use this beige color one
and then go over top of it with white eye shadow
to mimic the look I went for
But basically I would
Would even get a little bit on my eyelashes
because I didn't want the start of my eyelashes point to look like
it started where it really did then we're gonna go in with eyeliner
then we're gonna go in with eyeliner and I actually have the old one that I used
This is Sailor Moon
Basically the eyeliner should get thicker from the center of your eye
towards the end and you want to connect it to this
liner at the bottom
Right and then the next step is to put lots of white in the corner of your eyes
Which I still always do because it makes your eyes look brighter and more awake.
I'm using this etude house
sparkle pot thing which I actually really like I need to bring this back into my life. Now. It's time for fake lashes
Now it's time for fake lashes
I would cut them in half
and place them just on the second half but off of my eye
on the eyeliner that is extended.
I would also put lashes on the bottom lid on the outer corners too
But I don't have any right now that are like thin and smaller and natural-looking
as bottom lashes like what I used to use
So I'm not gonna this time
I'm just gonna put an extra coat of mascara on the outer ones that I have here.
And then sometimes I would put in circle lenses at this point,
but then they were a bit smaller
And I didn't always wear them,
and I don't have any smaller ones like that now
So I'm just gonna go with and not wearing them look
and then for lips I basically
erase them and made them non-existent, and now I'm the opposite
and now I'm the opposite I like to over draw them,
and then probably gonna cringe at that later too
This looks like year 2000 Taylor.
I used to do this look all the time
just like concealer no lips at all.
This was the trend in 2000.
Then I would take lipstick
and I would put it on focused on the center of my lips
So just making my lips as small and round as possible I guess
then I would add a bit of lip tint to the center only.
Blotted out
There we go this was me in
2012-2013 this is my finished look
My boyfriend just got home, so let's go show him
Princess Tay is back
Do you like it?
Sure
This is how you first met me, this look.
This was like before Japan look
before contact lenses
I didn't put in contact lenses, but I didn't always wear them.
Look babe, look at you
I found this photo on there
I was so skinny,
but this that camera at the casio camera makes you looks slimmer
and smaller, but
It's funny how you haven't changed over such a long period of time,
but I've changed so many times
Six faces on my iphone
So you like this look but you don't like my strong makeup look
That one was too much
This is not too much?
Do you remember these?
Looks good.
Tay Tay.
You guys are loving it
No, it's so cool because most of you know exactly what's going on
And that's how long you've been with me for and that's so cool.
We've kind of grown up together
I've transformed to look like every celebrity I liked so like Spice Girls Britney Spears
Whatever I liked at the time, but then I also had warty face
I had my gangster phase where I would dress like Nellie or jay-z and only where
Rocawear or Nietzsche or baby fat stuff like that, and then I also had my
slightly punk face
Not too hardcore, I didn't get into emo.
I had my dolly Lolita phase
I had a lot of phases.
I am a master of transformation
I can shape-shift into everything
even into a different race according to my dad
He actually thought Lena Fuji was me on the cover of this magazine
and he posted this on Facebook like so proud of you.
I confused him, I confused myself
But I had a lot of fun along the way.
I have to say I I don't regret it at all
I'm so happy that I got to experience different looks
and try different fashion
and just like reinvent myself and find myself.
I'm always, I'm still changing
I'm gonna look back on the stuff
I do now and cringe too, but this is a little part of life
And I wouldn't change it
and this is no I hate to people who like Japanese dolly style makeup
or a Lolita fashion
or a girly cutesy fashion
I so like it too.
This is more against my thought process behind it
and the lengths I would go to
portray a certain image
I hope you had some fun on watching this too.
Let me know in the comments below what your clingiest phase was to date.
And I will see you very soon in my next video
Thank you so much for watching which is going to be tomorrow?
Or should I go?
