There is a really good episode from the podcast The Imperfects called Dr Emily - When are you triggered? And they discuss the definition of being triggered, similar to your understanding of feeling an emotion vs visceral reaction. Super interesting!
Lauren! I feel the same way about wedding and everything that you do. We eloped and then had a small party with close friends and family months later. But I wanted to comment on you calling your ring a fake diamond. Kelsey Kotzur also has a moissanite and had a whole story about a moissanite not being a fake diamond. It’s a moissanite, it’s a gemstone in its own right. You don’t have to down play that it’s not a diamond or it’s a fake diamond. Dont give in to the haters calling it “fake”. ❤
I originally got a real diamond engagement ring, 1/2 carat. It’s nice and it’s aged beautifully. It cost a LOT back in the day, I think I got engaged 30+ years ago. My rings stopped fitting me after the birth of our kids and the price of gold restricted us from resizing them so we went to a lab manufactured diamond ring. It’s magnificent. If I could have had that originally, I would have but it wasn’t around when we got engaged. Real diamonds are not worth it. I got a 1.5 carat ring for half the price of the real1/2 carat diamond. And it’s honestly way better. Keep your own name, it’s not really the done thing to be a Mrs anymore. I’ve actually changed back to my maiden name even though we’re still happily married. I did feel like I lost my identity so I corrected that. My MIL refuses to use my maiden name lol.
Looooved this video! I always watch your IG stories (literally stories) and I’m even more happy when you post long videos so I’m not staring at my phone and rather my tv 😂 always love how real you are no matter the topic, I’ve just reccently swapped from Schwarzkopf shampoo/conditioner to Sunsilk based on your past review! Can’t wait to purchase the new mascara packaging too, love the colour!
Is the ‘mole’ you’re referring to Milia? It’s common for us to get it around our eye area as the skin is thin and the protein can build up which results in Milia. I’ve just had a couple removed from the nurses at my dermatologists office. They take two minutes and don’t leave a mark x
Re: saying “triggered” - people are using pop psychology terms far too much and out of context. The frequent use of such terms downplays the severity of people who are actually triggered by something.
I love long form content, so much more relaxing to watch. Have been really enjoying your uploads. Completely agree re products, you do you, people’s tastes change all the time, plus you can love more then one brands certain product! I change up my routines and items all the time, I can’t believe people take offence when you do it. x
I have been blonde for more than 10 years and my hair dresser has never mentioned or even asked what shampoo i use and my highlights always turn out good.
The lipliner does indeed look beautiful! Totally agree re: haircare and small talk issues. I would much rather sit in silence! Thank you for posting, it was lovely to see a Lauren video upload!
Would you talk more about yours and Reece’s choice to not have kids.. kinda going through a faze but would love to hear more how the choice came about with you both, if comfortable to discussing ❤
I love the long videos ❤ you're so down to earth and honest and I love that! My partner and I are getting married next year and it will be at our farm in our backyard and will be very casual. It's just a day in the end 😂
I started doing your trick with the pencil at the ends, and the builder on the front and it has just been a game changer for me. Thanks Loz! Loving your makeup line <3 we need MORE xx
So happy to see you transitioning back to some RU-vid content. I love to sit and do my press on nails while watching you on the Tele :) your honesty is so authentic and appreciated! (I do follow you on TikTok and the gram also!!) ❤😊
I could genuinely listen to your voice all day 🥹 Thank you for doing these long videos on RU-vid still, I love your content on Instagram but also LOVE these longer videos 🥰 I also have a moissanite ring and LOVEEEEE it, affordable, stunning and exactly what I wanted. 🫶🏻
Also, I used a very expensive Shampoo & Conditioner brand for years and I actually hated my hair but thought I had to keep using because everyone raved about it. It was sticky, oily, dry through the ends, just overall awfulllllll. I switched to the pink Sunsilk when you first started talking about it and that’s what I’ve been using since. My hair is the healthiest it’s ever been 🥹🩷
You were the 1 who got me onto my favourite lipstick Mac pure zen in like 2016 and they have since discontinued it have you any ideas of anything similar? Xxx
@@laurencurtis yes me to I also loved the nyx natural lip liner shade to fill my lips in and they’ve totally changed the colours and formula sadly 😘 thank you Lauren for replying xxxx
