In the world of beauty, some women own a plethora of products, from eyeshadow and mascara to under-eye concealer (thanks to those adorable little monsters we call children). One clever woman decided to share a humorous twist on her makeup routine by letting her husband narrate the process.
The comedic charm kicks off when he amusingly refers to her concealer applicator as a “sponge butt plug.” Meet Emma Carter, the voice behind the beauty page “Glam by Emma,” who invited her husband, Jake, to provide commentary for her latest makeup tutorial. Right from the start, Jake earns bonus points for inventing words like “smoush” while attempting to describe Emma’s makeup application technique. Then he dives into his thoughts: “Here’s another liquid bottle of nonsense that likely does the same thing as the last one.” Spoiler alert, Jake—it doesn’t!
As the tutorial progresses, Jake humorously renames the “butt plug” to an “orange Nerf ball,” while Emma diligently blends in her concealer. Soon, the eyeshadow makes an entrance, which Jake lightheartedly dubs “more pricey nonsense we can’t afford.” Of course, this is just before Emma takes a moment to sip on her wine. “I’ll bet I’ll hear ‘I’m too tired for that tonight,’” Jake quips, clearly enjoying the show.
With each layer of eyeshadow, Jake’s commentary becomes more animated. He jokingly refers to one application as a “natural case of pink eye” before Emma moves on to highlighter, all while her glass of wine seems to refill itself—a delightful twist reminiscent of a bottomless chips and salsa situation. After multiple eyeshadow applications, Jake seems to reach his limit, exclaiming, “Holy moly, babe, put that thing down!” while Emma casually continues to enjoy her drink.
In a hilarious moment, he says, “Did I mention we’re trying for another child? Nope, not tonight!” as Emma proceeds to perfect her eyebrows, which he notes are one of her best features, allowing her to “scowl at him across the dinner table” more effectively. Finally, after applying lashes and lipstick, Emma is ready for what exactly?
Jake humorously wraps up the video by stating, “After all this, she’s going to wash her face and hit the hay because we have kids, and we don’t have a life.” A relatable sentiment for many parents!
While Emma and Jake’s sense of humor shines through, Emma reassures viewers that their banter is all in good fun. “He showers me with compliments daily, and our relationship is filled with humor and love!” she notes in a follow-up post.
So, here’s to wishing we all looked as fabulous as Emma when we don our makeup.
