I'll get this started I guess...

Camera:
I use a Canon Powershot S2 IS. It has a great video function that has unlimited recording capacity (just until you fill up your memory card).

Settings:
This camera has no real additional settings for video, but I choose the appropriate light balance. Usually I have the white balance set on "artificial light" because the makeup can look wonky on camera with strong daylight glaring. I record at 15 frames per second.

Lighting:
This is probably one of the most important aspects of a good video. You need good lighting to show off your makeup. I do my videos at my vanity table, if it's during daytime I close the curtains on the side so that I still have daylight but not a direct glare of sunlight. At evening I use my halogen lamps, although the best is to probably have some trulite bulbs in a lamp. You should set up 2 lamps so that you your face is illuminated from both the front, and right & left side so that you don't get strong shadows.

Editing:
I use Windows Movie Maker which I don't really like, but my old computer can't handle any of the more technical, professional programs like Adobe Premier. I don't have enough RAM for it.
