I pre-filmed this video last week to go live on Sunday but we were actually in Chicago this past weekend because my grandmother passed away. I’m so thankful we had the chance to remember and celebrate her with our family. I will be back to my regular schedule next week week but for now I’m just spending time with my family. Also, I haven’t been on social media so I just wanted to take a second to say thank you so much to all of you who offered to look for baby formula for us after I posted my last video. I’m just blown away by your kindness and generosity and it means so much that you would even offer to something like that for me! I was actually able to find our formula online a few days ago which was such a relief but if you sent me a message or a comment and I wasn’t able to respond yet, please know that I just appreciate you even offering and thinking of us. ❤️
Before I continue with the vid, I had to say : "Go and squeeze every last bit of fun, tears and love out of the time you're spending with your family. Family is everything and just come before anything else". 👨👩👦💜💜💜
Sincere condolences on the loss of your Grandma, Andrea, may you and your family find peace in the happy memories you all share of this special lady. I just received the Elf cream blush in "Maui" and am loving it, you said it Andrea, they're sooo easy to work with, so creamy and the slight shimmer is quite flattering, nice and subtle. I'm of a fair cool complexion, and I experimented mixing the Elf Maui blush with the Elf cream bronzer in "Tan Lines", OMG, talk about a stunning "blonzer" that costs way less than Bare Minerals' blonzer!
I hope you have an amazing time with your families. Yes enjoy your time with them. I love this for sure. I’m so sorry about your grandma. Hugs and all my love
I’m so sorry for your loss 🥺🙏❤️ My mom passed away in February. So I really appreciate my family so much more. I hope you had a great time with your family at the beach. My little sister is moving to Pennsylvania. We lived by each other for one year. I’m excited for her but sad at the same time. I’m glad you were able to find formula. Hopefully this crazy shortage will end soon. Take care! 😊❤️💄
Your short featuring the ELF luminous blushes got me to buy Maui with my Ulta points! And I love it! I’m obsessed with cream blush and was so excited to add a luminous one to my collection
Aww I’m so sorry bout your grandma Andrea! May she Rest In Peace. Love grandmas mines 87 and she’s kicking butt still butt Alzheimer’s kicking in. Many prayers to you and your family. My sister lives in Pennsylvania and I’m in Georgia cause of my husband,s job, it’s hard but we try to get together for Christmas and thanksgiving. TFS your favorites
Oh Andréa, my deepest condolences to you and your family. Having lost both my father and mother, I know the tsunami of pain you are suffering. Remember, the pain is evidence of the love you shared with your grandma and all the wonderful memories - those memories will bring you all such comfort in the weeks/months/years ahead. 😢💔🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💔😢 Love you so very much 💗💗💗
When you posted the elf blushes on Instagram I immediately placed an order! Got Maui and Bermuda and the formula is a bit different from the original one but I LOVE the glow it gives. I tend to mix them and the shades compliment my skin tone very well. Absolute recommendation for those who haven't tried them yet. Also, both shades together kind of look like Pinkgasm vom CT but way more affordable! In terms of Rare Beauty, I got the shade Encourage and it's sooo pretty. It's a neutral pink (tiny bit darker than Hope) and gives that sunburned/sunkissed look which is so popular right now! -------------------- I didn't know where to put this but I guess there is never a 'good' way to condolence someone... My sincere condolences, Andrea. I hope you and your family can heal and please do take your time to do so..Taking care of yourself now is the most important thing. Sending so much love and healing energy 💗
I got one of the ELF blushes in the bright orange colour and really like them, they are such good quality for drug store. I also like the Rare beauty blushes, i got the shade joy as part of the mini kit with a mini mascara and highlighter and love it. I usually never go for liquid blushes but really like this
I kept pausing and adding to carts. I don’t know what it is but I’m very into blush lately. I can’t wait to try the ELF luminous putty blushes and the NYX sticks. I added everything to carts so I don’t forget to order them as soon as I can. Enjoy the time with your family
I love the dual ended sticks from NYX! I have the universal light and the fair version. I like the bronzer in the universal and the highlighter in fair
Nyx had the wonder Styx contour for years! Just not meant people used it until this cream thing happened. They re packaged changing the coloring and added a highlighter instead of just a light concealer color. A few more colors to. The formula is the same!
I definitely gotta get the NYX WONDER HIGHLIGHTER/CONTOUR stick.. I like the NYX cream blush too… your makeup look today is absolutely beautiful (Andrea).💜
Blush is the makeup product that gets me most excited and the Rare Beauty liquid blushes are my FAVORITE and have been for months! I have four minis and one full size--I have Hope in a mini and I think it's my most used (I think you & I have similar taste in blush tones). It's perfect all the time. I also love Peace (peachy) and if you're into brighter peaches, Joy is beautiful for summer! I tried to grab Encourage and Believe with my 15% off coupon earlier this week but they're sold out (all but one of the radiant finishes are sold out right now!!!). I hope you have so much fun with your family & I'll miss your videos during your break! I love getting ready in the morning and feeling like I'm chatting with you, haha. My sister lives a few blocks from me & it would be so hard for me if she moved, so I'm thinking about you!
Those Milani lip oils are fantastic-but I *hate* the doe foot. It’s too big & hard (insert ‘that’s what she said’ joke). I bought it based on your recommendation a few months ago. I’ve gone through 2 of them and I wear it all the time.
Thanks for your reviews. I really like the new elf blushes I got. I’d love to pick up some new nyx products. I love blush too. And I’m sorry about your grandmother. Hopefully your family is doing well ❤️❤️
I stand by every Briogeo product I have tried. I stand by their Don't despair hair mask and their hair milk. I never tried the Avacodo one but I will have to now. Another hair GEM that I have repurchased again and again is the EvaNYC hair mask and Mane Magic Spray. That is the best affordable hair mask I have tried. Its perfection. The spray is amazing. If I dont have it I panic. It is the best for putting the moisture back into your hair. It is also the best detangler.
I’ve been on a huge blush kick too! I’m having fun experimenting with different colors, and I love shimmer blushes. I think part of it is also that it’s so quick to put on, and I don’t have much time/focus die to having a toddler.
Hey beautiful! Watching now! Sorry that your sister’s are moving far away! I hope you all do get to see each other more often Than you think. Enjoy your week!
Hello! I hope you have a good time away with the fam. I am currently trying the Tarte man-eater mascara and I am not sure how I feel about it. I have heard so ma y good things. The brush is something to get use to but I am hoping I end up liking it because I need a new mascara to like! Lol. Love blushes. Milani is a great brand. I love their baked blushes. I have elf putty blush but cannot figure it out. 😩
I have been so into blush to I remember when I wouldn't touch it now I'm in love with it. I really want to retry the rare beauty blushes in the hope color I tried a sample packet awhile ago and was like wth is the hype this is crazy now I know u only use like a little dot of it . 😂 So it's a formal I want to retry. I been loving the Almay healthy hue blush is nearly nude if u don't have it u need to try it so pretty don't get it at Walgreens or CVS get it on Amazon or Walmart cause it's like 7$ their but like 14$ at the drugstore it almost reminds me of the BM gen nude blushes in a way but oviously a different color but they have like 4 colors but definitely pick up nearly nude I want to try the peach color and the pink one I think they have a berry too so maybe 4 colors in the line but I love the formula. I haven't tried the elf cream blushes I think the only elf product I have besides the concealer sponge is the primer infused blush. I really have been liking the Huda stick blushes too and their glowish bronzer for a drugstore always will be PF butter bronzer in dark bronzer and I have been enjoying the loreal new bronzer too it's really nice for a drugstore bronzer, I have been loving the CT wands contour and the spotlight hate the packaging but love the product and I really want to try the PM blushes. I also been loving the Dior highlight pallet in the universal shade YSL tinted moisturizer the laneige glowy makeup serum primer and the ND mini pallets and the Huda quartz pallets have been favs. Kloraine is my favorite dry shampoo the one with oat milk it's so good but feel like I go threw it fast , leave in Bumble and bumble hairdressers oil leave in conditioner shampoo and the mask also keratase hair masks I feel in love with. Skincare favs sk11 first essence , Dr Cereacul kombucha essence soo good feel so calm toner pads, Dermtlgy needless serum , dear klairs oil drop serum and the PC omgea serum love the 2% BHA liquid too they are having 20% off sale right now. SPF fav Canmake mermaid essence sunscreen in the clear version they have 3 so if ur gonna get it make sure it's the clear it's so good no white cast feels great no irritation pilling sent or essential oils can double as a moisturizer and it's 12$ best part u can get it on Amazon if u want it fast or yesstyle and Korean sites
My sister gave me the Ilia mascara this month, I found that the brush was super big, so application was uncomfortable. Weirdly, I didn’t get flaking or transfer, but a few hours into wear, it seems that the mascara was gone from my lashes.
I love the eye look. I definitely want some fetish oil. I love fruity. I wish they would do a plumper like that. I loveeeee milani MAXXX. We did receive the tarte big ego in boxy and it did absolutely nothing for me however I would try it again once air got to it. I will always do that with every mascara because I had tried the better than sex and I absolutely hated I absolutely hated it but then I needed a mascara at my mother's house and that's all she had and she had used hers a bunch of times and I absolutely loved it but I did not like it when it was fresh. Also I think I'm a genius and I think that all mascara wands should be interchangeable. I mean they all are the same size basically like the stick and they should just pop out because there are so many wands that I love but I don't like the mascara and then there are so many mascaras that I love but I don't like the wand I think you should be able to use whatever wand you want like the beauty for real is my daughter's favorite and I understand why because it really truly is great if you know how to apply mascara if you're not good at it then it can make a big mess. I cannot believe you just tried the NYX concealer its my favorite. Im seriously obsessed. Literally the 1st concealer I have ever loved of I am not a fan of concealer. I think they should come out with a foundation. I mean also they could come out with a serum blush and probably kill it. 90% of my drugstore is NYX. You just want to wait a little while before blending it out because it will be a more sheer coverage if you do not. The avocado kiwi mask.. Does smell great but it does literally absolutely nothing for my hair. I have thick, curly, long hair. The best I've found is the Moroccan gold series Hair mask. & Coco&Eve. Someone had said that the avocado Kiwi mask was really thick oh it was the girl that literally knows everything about hair, I forget her name but I did not find it thick and my hair was still snarly. The thicker the better for me. I use a hair mask almost every single time I shower which is every other day.
Im sorry, i love you to death, i absolutely do enjoy watching you in all seriousness... But i just had a massive mind explosion and started cracking up when you said "cream cheek products" because i definitely thought you said "cream CHEESE products" 🤦
you look absolutely beautiful. i reallllly want to get the elf luminous blushes in maui and bermuda. i also want to pick up a couple of their new no budge matte shadow sticks in some fun colors. i also want to grab the nyx cream blush sticks as well. the nyx concealer has been my HG concealer since i tried it right after it released. it’s perfection. i hope you have an amazing vacation with the family. xoxo. 🫶🏼
