Shelly. Are you aware you are a gifted wordsmith? You have an amazing and impressive (apparently innate) ability to intelligently explain pictures with words (describing brow products and their effects, etc.). I think in pictures and I have had to practice for years to be able to do what you seem to do naturally. Kudos to you! You are both gorgeous and brilliant!
@@goow I still find that baffling. Also, people who can't see images in the clouds. I can't imagine. And I dream in full blown technicolor with real life sensations. Some only dream in black and white or not at all. 🤔
@@goow I agree. My "mind pictures" rival anything Spielberg can create! I'm sad for those who can't experience that. I can also see in 3D, which I thought everyone could do until I became a nurse and realized that most patients I met thought I was kidding. Fascinating how we all have our gifts!
When you said, “It’s doing it without silicones,” I thought of the Grinch, “It came without ribbons! It came without tags! It came without packages, boxes, or bags!” I’m a dork. Seriously. 🤓
The wet n wild impossible primer along with their tinted hydrator = best $10 you could put on your face. Both are soooo pretty. Repackage either in a higher end looking component and people would pay 5 times more for them.
I adore the new L’Oréal foundation, have to mix the two lightest shades as well. Definitely the best foundation I have found for my mature skin. Love it with the ELF Beautifully Bare powder. 🥰
I love the phytoceramides.. I have always had chronic dry dry dry skin.. summer/winter it never changed. Now that I’ve been taking them for a long time I’m closer to “normal”
Thomas Delauer 😃 I follow his channel too 😃 I did keto for a year for heart health, I didn’t stick with it after that 😔 but it worked great to get rid of my fluid retention. Sourdough though girl I love that stuff! I grew up on delicious bread (in Belgium) and I have a hard time not eating a good baguette…. I should go back to keto though, I felt good on it, it’s just time consuming…. I’ll have to try those flower beauty lip products! They look great!!! You hooked me to the phytoceramides 😂 great stuff! You’re such a breath of fresh air Shelly! Thank you for bringing your upbeat personality to our lives 💓😻
I recently stumbled across your channel, and now I'm obsessed! You're a natural in front of the camera and provide such detailed yet concise reviews of products. Love your work!
I’m going to hit Target for that primer! I am liking the True Match Nude (wearing it today and will definitely wear it the renfest on Saturday). I also grabbed one of the Flower lip masks, but I got the color “Smooch”. It’s definitely way more of a tint, and not a lot of color, but I like it. Have you tried their Color Wash eye tints? I grabbed Sienna just because I had $15 of CVS bucks I could spend, so why not? Talk about out-the-door easy! I need to play with it more, but it seems to be really pretty. Another Ulta find that I repurchased (to get to free shipping when I bought my Paint Pots) was my Flora & Curl Rose and Honey detangling leave-in conditioner. (You’ve seen my curls.). Anyway, I use it on my mids to ends and it helps with the dryness and keeps them from knotting up. I don’t know how many friends of the fishbowl are curly girls like me, but that stuff is so worth it. I bought my first bottle of it last November and I’m just replenishing it now. You don’t need a lot, but it does the job and gets me through when I’m not able to get in to see Donna for a while to get trimmed up. Even she has said that she can feel the difference in my hair.
I was scrolling Ulta one day and ordered some of The Ordinary products…I really like the Vitamin C, the Moisturizer, and their Silicone Primer ( reminds me of the Hourglass), and the Fluid Primer…best of all fragrance free..I want to try the L’Oreal Foundation. Looks so pretty on you…I like the Flower Beauty Scribble Sticks, the dark colors really go well with your dark hair and makeup….Great Review, as always!
Silicone free! I had discounted the W'nW figured fragrance and silicone. Getting it. Loving the Elf salicylic acid primer. My skin is sensitive and I can't believe it doesn't bother me. Never used a primer this consistently. I don't think it fills pores as well as the white one but keeps me from breaking out and my makeup looks nicer. Ooo nice job Slim fast. Will try. I can't drink their shakes but noticed the bars have whey powder. In my opinion, taste so much better than the soy things. Thanks!
Ziva is such a pretty baby! On vacation, I was using Mamode Rose Water Toner, Rose Water Gel Cream, and Petal Spa Oil to Foam. It does have a rose scent so if you don't like roses skip these but OMG they were so delightful to use! I have dry skin and this was like mother's milk for my skin. 😂 I think you can tell I like it! I got the small travel sizes in a kit at Marshall's. I have been wanting to try them for a while but didn't want to invest in full sizes. FYI, AmorePacific makes them so you know it is good!
Thank you so much for the definition of Dry v Dehydrated. I’ve never really understood until this video and now I’m like “of course “ now to properly find out if I’m one the other or both!
First of all, your nails are just gorgeous! Love the color. I had to share my favorite lip treatment. It's the Klavuu Lip Treatment from YesStyle. I use this morning, mid day and at night, and the product lasts forever. I buy four at a time (when it's on sale) and this lasts me a year. I can usually find it for around $9. Check out the amount of product you are getting in your lip products! I have been waiting for someone with dry skin to review the Wet n Wild primer. So NOW I will be purchasing it❤️❤️
Awesome list I need to try No7 stuff out. I'm doing keto and low carb also and have heard good things about that bar too. I just tried the Perfect Keto Nola bars and oh my SO GOOD.
I love your eye look today Shelly! You always have amazing recommendations! I just got the Loreal Tinted Hyaluronic Serum and can't wait to review and try it myself. That Elf Quad is really good too!
Your skin looks so so good, and you've not been mentioning flaking or being dehydrated in quite awhile: whatever you've been using is working, and that's fandamntastic. I keep pestering you about BB creams in a compact format via Yesstyle: there's options. Thanks for sharing your faves, Shelly 💜
I ordered something new from YesStyle (maybe I just hadn't seen it before) - compacts for putting your regular foundation in to use as a cushion! I have to go through my YesStyle stuff. I made 3 orders in quick succession and am now backlogged lol!
@@goow I saw those, although the consistency of what I have may not translate well into a "cushion" format 🤷🏼♀️ Most RU-vid videos feature oily/combo skin using cushion compacts, 'tis not me. I'll just order one and hopefully it'll be good. 💜
Oh Shelly, gorgeous, such a fun, pretty, articulate video; and your line up of goodies was fabulous. Thank you 😊 !! Elf & Flower just getting ever more entrenched as my best friend budget make up buddies 100%!!! Aww hello cute fuzzy friend 🐱. Hey, would you ever do a tattoo back story reveal video? Just If you feel like it 💕🌺💕🌺!!!
Mr Thomas DeLauer ! Yes, watched a bunch of this IF vids and a Costco good / bad vid! Thank you for all your reviews, I have watched many and they are so helpful!! Ty!
I know Grocery Outlet isn't everywhere and some have different things, but our store has that Slim fast fat bomb and a couple other items. They're cheaper there.
Hi!! Shelly... 😃😃 hope you're doing well.. I watch this video last night and don't like primers because they don't work for me but I just want to try the impossible primer from Wet and Wild I went to Walgreens near me and it was the last one in stock lucky me 😃 and I bought a Color Icon eyeshadow Palette and I love bouth products I'm so impressed with the eyeshadow OMG!! Shelly I'm so so amazed how beautiful they're I got the Sundaze one love it!!! Perfect colors for fall🍁🍁🍁🍁🍂🍂 The first primer that works for me I highly recommend thank you so much Shelly you're the best.💯💯💪💪
I have moved across the country so, I am not on opposite end of the country now. I bought the elf eye cream and the fragrance free moisturizer. They work wonderful at night. I do like the L’Oréal foundation as well, although the skin tone is a bit warm on me.
Shelly - I was placing a Target order for some random items (for store-pick up) and checked to see if they had the lightest shade of the L’Oréal foundation… and they DID!! I added it to my cart and fully expected it would not get fulfilled (I think it said “only 2 left”). Low and behold I got it! Used it today and I’m really liking it! Thanks for video! 💗
Lol I've got that Impossible primer too and love it. There is a primer from Touch N Sol that is like that also. It's called the Icy Sherbet Primer and it has the same texture, color, everything and it's also silicone free. I think the WNW is a dupe for that one. I always love your favorites videos! Love the thumbnail with Ziva and the cameo too, of course!
Let us know later in the dead of winter if the vitamins still help keep your skin hydrated please! I too have loved everything I’ve tried from No 7. I think they have some great products!
@@goow if it continues to work when our skin type is normally at its worst I’m definitely buying some of those!!! Mine has overall been pretty good the last few months but my skin behaves in the summer lol
I met with a dietician recently and I tried to explain why I cannot be in the “every single meal from scratch” camp and she just wasn’t having it, like, “I don’t really understand that but I’m just going to continue talking to you like you can do that.” 😳
I've recently tried Built Bars for an afternoon snack as a way to increase my protein intake and I've been blown away with how good they are! My favorites have been the coconut almond (legit tastes like an almond joy) and rocky road. I don't do low carb or keto but it looks like most run between 4 to 5 net carbs.
Amen! I'm oily dehydrated.🖐 Sadly, I've learned that all good supplements seem to anger my kidneys or my cholesterol. So, everyone check with your doctors first if you have chronic health issues like myself.
Thank you so much for your content! I’m 57 and after seeing this review and how beautiful your skin looks I bought the L’Oréal foundation…love love it!
Every time someone in a video puts a really good primer on their hand like that, I think "I should put primer on my hands so they can look smooth like that all the time." (Then I remember that i wash my hands a lot so that would be a waste, but dang those hands look nice!)
Never heard of the color changing blush oil! Interesting! I’ll have to try it. I’ll be checking out the 7 skin video. Sounds like a great way to keep your skin hydrated consistently! What fun it is to watch you!!❤️❤️
Silicone FREE! And it reminds me of the bare minerals original Prime Time primer... it's like a watery silken magical potion!!! Love love love! If your liver does not like Keto, perhaps you want to support it ( after all it works itself to death for you over a lifetime)... try Rejuvica's VitaLiver It really is wonderful... and will give your liver the happiness it deserves! I get it on Amazon... it is a liquid and it has a pleasant flavor, although if you like you can put it in juice as well... or tea... I just do it straight. The slim fast fat bombs are pretty good .... try making three ingredient peanut butter cookies ... egg- peanut butter & powdered sweetener of your choice - bake and Viola! Peanutbutter cookies with something like 2.5 net carbs per nice sized cookie... I add sugar free /keto chocolate or white chocolate chips to them... a nice treat with all the goodness of the fat in the peanut butter! Have a great week! 💚
@@goow Shelley! There is a supplement for just about every part of the human body! I've worked within the natural health industry for over 37 years... it is mind boggling what is out there if we know what to look for!
Holy Tealedo🥰 So happy to have a teal glitter! Thanks for this... can't wait to try some of your recs. I have combo skin but definitely relate to the dry patches and you always have great stuff💞
Hi! I was wondering if you completed your Makeup artist classes? Would you consider doing a review now that you are all done (if you are)? Do you still recommend QC Career school? Thanks so much!!
Hi Kathy! I have one module left that requires doing makeup on someone else, and with the pandemic I haven't been comfortable seeking out someone to work with. I need to get in touch with my mentor and find out if there is an alternate way to complete the module (though I understand if there isn't, since after all they're certifying artists to work on others). That's the one downside of doing the program for personal development rather than intending to work in the field. I highly recommend the actual content and instruction and mentorship, as I've gotten a lot out of it in terms of gained knowledge and techniques.
I don't have any sponsors. The vitamins were a recommendation from a few subscribers in the comments, so I tried them and I like them. I prefer that brand because I like their flip-top packaging.
Would you try out the new ABH concealer for us? I’ve been curious about that and from what I’ve watched so far it seems like that shades might run kind of light. I always use you as a shade reference for most things so unless I’m in store I’ll probably wait to buy it. Thanks!
I’ve always wondered if it was okay to lick what’s left of my lip mask after I wipe it. Now I don’t feel so weird. I’m still crushing on that Elf face palette and now I just gotta have that primer lol
You used the primer over your usual moisturizers and sunscreen? I may need that. I've been low carb since 2016. Keep talking about it, please. Totally off topic but your sleeve looks amazing. Is it complete or in progress?Love the colors.
Thanks!! My lower arm is complete. I'll probably still add some more to my upper arm :) and the other arm eventually of course! =D I just recently started trying the Mad Rabbit tattoo balm and I really like it. (I saw them on Shark Tank lol). I do put my primer over everything - so my last two steps in my skin care are moisturizer, then sunscreen. Then I wait at least 15 minutes before I do my makeup, starting with primer.
I'm doing keto vegetarian so it's really whacked compared to regular keto (I have to eat some gluten in the form of veg meats, and there's a lot of dairy involved). But my favorite thing that isn't so weird and fits in great with my work schedule is wraps! I get the carb balance spinach wraps (3 net carbs per), and add a couple slices of cheese (sharp cheddar works well) and the spinach artichoke dip that comes in the tub at Costco, then put some greens on there (arugula is awesome if you want the whole thing tangy, but anything works really - I've done romaine, baby spinach, or just a leaf lettuce blend). Roll it all up! I keep it in a sandwich bag until lunch. It's super fast to make, very portable, and tasty. I've tried it with spinach dip and it's fine but not as good as that awesome spinach artichoke dip. Also good warmed up. I also like love making mini deep dish pizzas with Fathead dough. I recently tried a keto bread mix from Keto & Co that I got on Thrive Market. On its own it doesn't taste like much, but I made it into English muffin size rounds so I could use it in my breakfast sandwich maker, and that's another fast go-to - scramble up some eggs and pop it in the sandwich maker, add cheese and a veg meat. Otherwise I'm usually doing a protein with a side of roasted vegetables. Birds Eye has a skillet brussels sprouts that I really like. It's a balsamic glaze but carbs are still low. I bend a lot of the "clean" keto rules to make it work for me but it's the easiest way to lose weight for my body. I wish it wasn't because it's a pain not to be able to eat out (no place has keto-friendly vegetarian protein, basically so all I can get are vegetables and salads). But aside from that I love it.
I would love to try the phytocerimides but their formed from wheat/gluten and I can't go anywhere near that so I was really disappointed because I wanted to see if it would help my scalp dermatitis. Do you know if there is a similar vitamin that is gluten-free?
I placed an order with NO hesitation 😂! My skin is extremely dry all year round plus I live in a dry climate so anything that can help maintaining the moisture in my skin, I’m down!! 😹
@@goow I've been using a topical all natural cream that has worked wonders but I can only apply to the areas of my head where I've shaved down to my scalp (same with other products I've tried). I'm honestly not fully commented to shaving completely because I've not tested to see if the dryness will come back if I stop using the cream that's why I was excited to hear about phytocerimides but alas it isn't an option for me. I've heard unrefined cod liver oil can help so I guess that's my next route.
