Trying Clickbait Beauty Hacks From Facebook

Nope I'm not sure Hello friends and welcome to another video Today I'm gonna be testing out Questionable beauty hacks from Facebook videos. So recently I was scrolling on my Facebook feed and I came across This video, it was a DIY makeup hack video in which the hacker cut up fake Eyelashes and dumped them into clear eyebrow gel And that was it. That was the hack. Much to the ire of the commenters below.

This led me down a rabbit hole of more of these Facebook Beauty hack videos, of which Many seem to share the theme of why, and is that even a hack? It seems like they often just do random things Just to have a sensational thumbnail or title. So it's not really the kind of clickbait where they lie to you because they usually Show you what's in the thumbnail within the video, with some exceptions But often times they seem to just invent something Ridiculous just to get a reaction. And they almost never talk in the videos So they don't really have to explain themselves. To be fair it can be kind of entertaining, like hey You've got a fork on your face.

How about that? But I wouldn't really call them hacks. That said maybe I've got it all wrong Maybe these hacks aren't ridiculous, and they're actually very helpful, so we're gonna put them to the test today and find out. Okay! So first up is this pretty mysterious hack. So this particular video was posted by a Facebook page called Brush, and the caption says "I need to try these" A little bit below that they do credit this girl Luisa Simona's Instagram But it doesn't seem like they tried these before they shared them with the world.

So basically they put some toothpaste and then some baking Soda in a cup and they mix it together oh And then straight away there was no before picture of the chin, Luisa is just brushing the toothpaste on her chin. I don't know what her motivation is, I mean we can watch it with the sound on just to be sure that Louisa's not speaking to us No, it's just just sort of jazzy, love making music. But she does make sure to put up some fish emojis just you know she's making a fish face. Then she wipes it off and We see her chin, and then after that it just goes straight into a different hack, so that's about all the context We have.

So I say let's test this thing. Okay, So she starts off by just pouring the toothpaste in there's no quantities that she gives. She just sort of puts it in It's a pretty artful swirl if I do say so myself, and then after that she puts in what looks like one Teaspoon of baking soda. Oh I spilled it I spilt it this smells really good though Maybe it's for bad breath.

On your face. So how she applies it is She just sort of takes some on her toothbrush and then puts it straight on the chin. Oh, it's cold It just missed completely, oh wow that is Pungent and powerful on the chin, she does sort of brush, it around. Oh that hurts.

I feel hacked Lemme see if Louisa herself has anything to say about this. Ah this must be it. It is supposed to remove blackheads It's supposed to remove blackheads! It's supposed to remove blackheads! Don't leave it on! Well, I've left it on. It's too late now We can't go back.

Alright So I think I should probably take it off now because I've left it on for at least five minutes. Oh boy. Oh oh, ow ow! As it's coming off it hurts more. I don't know that my chin looks like there's less blackheads on it But it does look a little bit red and raw.

So Louisa did have a little bit more instructions But Brush just chose to like completely not include those, though The comments do say a couple of helpful things, do not do the first one with whitening toothpaste. It will burn. Are these whitening? Yes, damn it Louisa! Alright. Well.

That's our first hack. Based on the pain and the lack of instructions I wouldn't recommend this one. Shall we continue? So this next hack was the sort of og hack that started off this whole process This is the clear eye brow gel. This video was posted by a page called "eyeliner addict" And yeah people in the comments are just really not having it.

Like Trishia for example says "so if I shave my legs Or vag I can just glue it on my face?" To which I say Trishia Do you. The thing is as the girl applies the gel to her eyebrows, her eyebrows Don't look bad at the end, but I'm just really Unconvinced that it has anything to do with the little hairs that are in the gel But who knows. So let me wipe my eyebrows off and put some Eyelashes on them. All right, so it looks like her first step is just Chopping off bits of these fake eyelashes.

Does she chop them all up? She must right? This is just not enough hair There's just this is too slow. Okay. This is making your life easier I kind of feel like I don't have as many as they did. They only really showed like one tray of these little eyelashes But I feel like theirs was much hairier.

It looks like a really bad Sneeze. Is that how many nose hairs come out when you sneeze? So we have the exact same eyebrow gel that they showed in their video They have some type of extra dropper though to get it out of there so I'm gonna pop open the top and I'm gonna stick this syringe in. None of these steps were included in the hack by the way. All right, and then I'm gonna syringe the clear gel into our little pot.

Oh, yeah, that looks good. All right well
I think it's time to mix our gel up and Put it on my eyebrows. The thing is like maybe if you have sparse eyebrows you want to fill them in with things that look Legitimately like hair, but I just don't think that these really look like eyebrow hairs They're curly and wiry and... Pubie I know that there's hairs on my brush, but I don't think that they're coming off onto my eyebrow I will admit that my eyebrows are not like the most sparse but at least they match the color of the Eyelashes.

Because I feel like if you had lighter eyebrows this might look ridiculous. Ll right, so I think I've done both brows I don't think that they look like particularly bad You can't even really see the little hairs at all, and if you can they're just kind of like sticking out awkwardly It's possible that they may have thought this was a good hack But I also Think that they may have just thought it looked kind of gross and thought that they could get a bunch of Facebook comments about it And they were right. Kay, so this next hack is for eyeshadow, and I'm gonna be honest I feel like it might work But when I saw this I was just like Why?O this is a video Posted by this page called five minute crafts, its caption is op secret beauty hacks for the perfect image winky face You know what I'm talking about the perfect image. Lright so right in the beginning this person has Covered her face in pads.

Hat is uh not part of any of the hacks I don't think, that she's just sort of done that too artistically show you that pads are gonna Be involved in this video. So basically this woman is putting on eye shadow. She's getting fallout. It's terrible It's almost like a setup like an old-school infomercial It's like do you have a really hard time opening milk? And then now they're gonna show you the solution Which is to just put a straw in the side like joey tribianni my favorite is that she looks to the side sneakily before she pulls the pad out and then she cuts it up into pieces and sticks the pieces under her eyes.

I. Understand the idea of like putting something underneath your eyes to catch fallout, But does it have to be a pad? He people in the comments Don't seem to be loving It. Is no one gonna mention that pads are way too expensive to be using on your face everyday? The sticky adhesive That's supposed to adhere to panties should never go on your face. Listen Angie You seem like a sensible person that has no place in Facebook hack videos.

So um let's try this shall we? Alright so I'm gonna cut my pad as she does. I think my pads a little bit thicker than hers. Then I'm gonna take the Adhesive off and then stick this on the face. It's a good look I'm not sure about her pads, but my pads on my face right now only has adhesive like right in the middle of it, So I actually feel like fallout could still get underneath there.

All right. I'm going into some more vibrant colors Just to make sure we could really test the fallout caching capabilities. I don't really know what type of eye shadow look I'm going for right here. I'm just - putting colors on my face.

All right ready. I'm gonna take them off Oh, I do think that they caught some of the fallout. Cuz you can see that There's a little eye shadow specks sort of right there, so it did catch some of it - this little spot right here But as people in the comments said the expense of using pads under your eyes and also the fact that you have a pad Adhesive on your under eye skin every day makes us a pretty like not feasible hack all right So this next hack is a foundation application Hack, of which I feel like there were a lot in the last year and a half or so alright So this video is from a page called beauty hacks, and their caption is items at home that will save your   makeup routine. And the item they propose will save your Foundation is a balloon.

My biggest gripe with this hack is how they've cut it together, It seems like it doesn't work very well to begin with and then it cuts to her foundation being completely blended, So it makes me feel like she blended out her makeup with something else in between. Okay. I mean let's try it I'm gonna inflate this now Yes This is a tough balloon! Let me stretch this out a little bit Alright there we go hahah! A Beauty Blender! Alright ready? It makes a fun sound when it hits my face:) Alright clear first problem, besides the fact that the foundation isn't really soaking in, which is pretty much exactly What happened in the video, is that this balloon tip is round, And I can't really get in any crevice of my face, but this is fun. I could just do this for a while Oh, that's a good idea.

The balloon is more malleable than I had expected Alright, there seems to be a couple crevices that we just can't reach, So I don't think that her foundation was completely blended out by a balloon, But I would recommend putting a balloon on her face, because it's fun. I wouldn't call it a beauty hack, But it would be what I would call a fun evening. So this next hack is an example of what I'd call the hack gone too far. This video is called 9 hacks for perfect cat eyes, and this girl basically just takes any Item she can find with a straight edge, and puts it next to her eye.

Which seems to be okay when it's like tape are like a playing card. She then goes on to paint scissors with eyeliner and put them next to her EYE. The interesting things about these comments are that a lot of people are criticizing her eyeliner Which I actually don't find to be the problem, There are not enough people in these comments being like please don't put next to your eye. Anyway with that, Let's try it.

Which end does it look like she's using I think it's this end Yeah, it's a long pointy one so I think in spirit this hack is pretty- that just freaked me out Yeah, it just freaked me out. To me this hack is similar to like an eyeliner stamp where she actually Paints the eyeliner on the little edge, and then stamps it Stamps it on her eye to which I would say use anything else, but this. This is probably one of the Dumber things We've done on this channel. Alright Ready, I'm not ready.

I'm nervous mom .  Whoa That wasn't even good. It didn't come out very well. Which is a shame because I put my eyeball on the line I think I'm gonna have to try it again And maybe try and paint more of the scissor blade, thing is my scissor has a flat end right here, and so does hers It's not even like a point.

Yeah. I don't think that looks very good I'm just gonna do the other side just for good measure. Well. I mean that's better, but it's still terrible! Yeah, I wouldn't recommend this hack I don't think either eye is ideal and also putting a scissor next to your eye is not ideal So I would say in general don't do this one Okay, so this next hack is also from the Facebook page Brush And it is called four emergency makeup hacks Everyone needs to know.

So this one is like a few hacks in in this video And it's basically supposed to be Emergency lipstick. They put Elmer's glue and food coloring into a bowl, mix it together Then apply it to their lips, and let it sit for 10 minutes, and then peel it off. So I think basically the idea is that I would be staining my lips, which may work But I think my biggest issue with it is just like why would I have these things with me in a makeup Emergency? I feel like if you're you're in a pinch and you've got 10 minutes to spare try and see where the nearest CBS is I think that's number one on the list. Alright, and now let's put it on my lips all right Let me try and get a good coat of this on there.

I'm trying to get some butthole coverage as well I know I feel like a Barbie doll. So yeah, I'm gonna hang around for 10 minutes And then we're gonna peel it off .Alright, so it's been 10 minutes I can't really talk, but it's really solidified, and I think I hopefully I'm ready to peel it off Oh, yeah, that's a pretty good peel very snake skinny And I do think my lips look pretty pink actually. I do have a little bit of like extra Glue kind of like in the inner rim, butthole area but besides that I think that the stain did work, I just don't think that this is what one would or should do when presented with a makeup emergency. It doesn't seem like a good use of time or glue.

All right, so we've made it this far This is our very last hack This is a video from eyeliner addict And the caption is take your makeup off with shaving cream. Basically this girl rubs shaving cream all over her face And you know it sort of tries to show us that it's taking her makeup off Then she says but be careful around your eyes And then it cuts ahead to the eye makeup already being removed. So I suspect that this hack doesn't really work And they're just living off the cachet that like shaving creams a weird quirky thing to put on your face. So with that Let's try and take our makeup off.

Nope. I'm not sure. I put too much on I need help. All right.

Just give me one second I'm just gonna run to the bathroom and get rid of this extra stuff. So she basically just takes the cotton round and just swipes it down like this. I mean it looks like there's some makeup that came of.Mostly, I feel like I just took off the shaving cream You know? I'm gonna need a lot of cotton rounds for this. See I just don't see how this is helping anyone I think that the shaving cream is a little bit, itchy and it's also like weirdly drying? All right So it seems like we've reached the eyes She completely skipped this portion so um I guess just straight to the eye.

Is that working at all? I actually do think it's taking some of my eyeshadow off, but I'm not convinced It's doing anything for the eyeliner I think it's just sort of smudging it around. I would be at this for like a good 30 minutes before I was actually Makeup free. So I don't think I would call this a hack, and the fact that this is the only hack in this video is Worse, I think, it's not like a filler hack It's not like oh, we need fives like throwing in there there like this deserves a video Do you think we could cut ahead and then it would work? Ya just turn all the cameras off, I'll take my makeup off with the makeup wipe and then we'll re-roll. Okay So those were my facebook beauty hacks.

Out of all of these hacks There were definitely a couple that worked to a certain extent, But I would also say that none of them prioritized ease, convenience or common-sense over getting views shares and comments on their videos To be fair there are weird beauty hacks all over the internet But on other platforms like blog posts and YouTube videos the Creator has to at least try to explain Why they think the hack is helpful, but in these videos they're more like this is a ridiculous seeming method We're not going to explain to you Why this is happening and we're gonna bet on the fact that you're probably not gonna try it and call us out on it. Now I. Understand the plight of posting videos to Facebook They're basically trying to get people to stop scrolling on their feed and watch a video They didn't ask, for so these videos basically need to be as crazy as Possible to stand out. Which explains why these videos are pretty fun to watch and sort of out of the box But good beauty hacks they are not thank you guys so much for watching if you liked that video make sure to Shmash that like button and if you want to see more videos like this make sure to shmash that subscribe button a big shout out To Melinda mayhem for watching, thanks for watching, Melinda, and I will see you guys a next time.

TOP BEAUTY ESSENTIALS I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUTDESI PERKINS

Hey guys welcome back to my channel so today's video is going to be ten beauty products that I. Cannot live without. This is actually inspired by Chloe Morello tweet She put out a tweet that another youtuber had made a video not related to beauty But just ten things they couldn't live without I kind of got the idea from her so you guys haven't checked out Chloe Morello She's a babe check her out. I will link her in the description box down below Let me tell you this is not really an easy decision making process I will say that I went through every category and thought hmmm.

Do I love this product yes, could I live without it? Yeah If somebody gave me another product to work with I could so really this is more of like I need them in my life All the time don't give me something else to use Thank you so much. So the first item. I'm gonna count as one because they go together This is my shampoo and conditioner, and it is the Ouai a shampoo and conditioner I love the repair version and also the smoothing version of these and let me tell you guys I. Have somewhat of a frizzy texture.

I have a frizzy texture not somewhat There's a frizzy texture going on my hair could either dry really frizzy and separated or together if you have curly hair you may understand that a little bit more it's like your curls can be frizzy or they could have like a nice bouncy together Texture and that's what this does for me it also makes my hair just really really soft. It smells phenomenal I remember one time I had washed my hair with these and my mom came to visit and she was walking by me and she was like What is that? I wasn't wearing perfume okay, and I had no idea and then later I caught her low key sniffing my hair. She liked it that much and I was like you're weird get outta here I
had to give her a bottle even though I didn't want to cuz I'm stingy like that this stuff is just really really good I. Feel like it works for every hair type my hair is so soft feels like baby hair super silky, and I just don't want to use any other shampoo and conditioner I.

Don't well the next thing I'm gonna talk about is skincare And I feel like skincare is a little tricky because I love to try out new stuff all the time I feel like if somebody were to give me another moisturizer to work with right now another eye cream I'd be like yeah, okay. There is one product that stands out that really really changed my skin dramatically and because of the category It's in I kind of feel like I probably won't switch this out or try a new one I mean I'll try a new one But like don't take this from me. This is the Ole Henriksen toner. I've been talking about this forever I've already mentioned it in favorites and in videos here before this toner is just amazing incredible I mean, I'm sure you guys are sick of hearing me talk about it, but as far as skincare goes This is the one thing that I would want to keep using forever It just always gets rid of any redness or irritation in my skin any breakouts I haven't had crazy breakouts recently, so I'm really happy about it.

I felt like in general I didn't realize how much makeup and gunk was left over on my skin after makeup. Wipe and washing my face I thought like yeah, I'm good. I'm clean, but then after using the toner with a silk pad I realized that I still had makeup left over I'd look at the pad, and I would see makeup there, so if you don't use a toner now I feel like that might help keep your skin really really clean especially at night before you go to bed that way you're not sleeping with leftover makeup because you might not know that you are I. Had no idea for all this time, so I love this product ooh, so good so good Since we're in skincare.

Let's move right on to Nivea another product. I've been using for quite some time now makeup Shayla is the one who introduced me to this and nothing compares to Nivea - You guys know that song. This is the Essentially Enriched. It's very important Essentially enriched because they have a few different ones But this one is the best I swear any time anybody asks me.

What moisturizer. What body glow. This is just an Affordable, but also the best way to keep my skin hydrated get it at Target It's like so easy to get and accessible, and it's just never runs out I have them always with me a lot of the products in this video actually I always have a bag of must-haves when I'm traveling going on photo shoots anything that I'm doing these are the That always have to be with me no matter what and this is like don't leave your Nivea at home Do not I don't care if somebody else has lotion on the set It's not always the same because this works, so well with flash if somebody takes a flash photo of you It's like boom beam. What highlight? Are you wearing on your shoulders? It's Nivea ok the best.

I can't live without it I don't want to use another lotion as far as foundation. I'm sorry to disappoint you but You see I wanted to pick a foundation for you guys just to have something in that category, but to be honest with you I. Don't feel like there's a foundation I can't live without right now I feel like there's a few foundations that I love and so I could always rotate those You know what I mean like there's not one that I'm like oh my god. Yes I love this foundation like for example if I were to think of something right now.

It would be the new NARS foundation That I'm currently loving, but if someone took it from me I could still use some of the other foundations that I'm loving as well So we're just gonna skip right over that I'm gonna move on to another hair product this hair product I also have in my bag that goes with me everywhere. And this is Color Wow is a hair powder that you put in your hair line to fill in any sparseness Just anything honestly. I have so Many sparse areas like closer to my baby hairs that when I put my hair back It looks like I'm like losing some hair there. I don't know I'm a little concerned I'm not sure, but this stuff is such an easy on the go.

You're in the car You're like whoa what's going on here. Let me fix this really quick make it look fuller Let's straighten out the part here with a little powder give you a perfect hair, and it's just a lifesaver It just makes everything look more clean more sharp. I love this powder. I have to have it at all times I mean even my brother.

He'll be like oh do you have your color wow? So shady This next item. I'm sure so many people will say and agree that they cannot live without okay a beauty I know there's a lot of beauty sponges out there, and I said I do like other Beauty sponges But I know how to work with it. I know it's never gonna let me down. Beauty blenders are the best for me I love them.

I can't imagine going somewhere and not having my Beauty Blender. It's one of those things that I'm like Did I ever get my Beauty Blender? Oh my god like panic okay panic? This is just perfect and I love the black one and I like the nude one I know the colors some of the colors mean they do different things But for some reason the pink one is like kind of my least favorite I don't know why it's like not as squishy as these two in my opinion I may be making that out, but that's how I feel, okay. I open the drawer I see a pink one and I kind of like move it to the side and go for these two I. Don't know I don't know why but a Beauty Blender gotta have it another thing that I have to have okay Is this morphe brush randomly one day picked it up, and I just love it it's the G40 and I don't have any other brushes in my Can't live without I almost feel like there's so many dupes for so many different brushes But this one it's actually been through so much.

Do you hear that? It's tired? It needs to retire. So this one is just so great because it's the perfect size perfect density I use it on my no makeup days just to blend in my concealer. I could use it to blend in a little highlight I could literally just do like my fresh makeup look just with this one brush usually I'll use this one I spot conceal, and I don't wear foundation. I just wear concealer over in his spots and what I love about it Is that it's fluffy enough to not take off the concealer You know remove the product and it's like light enough to just blend it in while keeping the full coverage that I need Doesn't take off any product.

I just Love this so much Alright so moving on let me tell you guys I have temperamental under eyes I do they do what they want to do. They are dry as hell one day, and then the next day They'll be perfectly fine, and it drives me nuts. Certain days I can't wear Tarte shape tape. I just can't like it'll be too drying for me and in certain days I can wear it.

Like if I'm feeling good about myself I'm like let me put on some shape tape and to be honest I just put it like in the hollows I won't put it close to my under-eye, but the concealer that will never let me down the Becca aqua luminous concealer mmm I remember the name you see that this is in the shade beige And this is just a great everyday concealer if that's what you want It's not super full coverage, so if that's what you want, then maybe it's not for you But for like an everyday a lighter coverage this works for all occasions for me. I can make it work I can build it if I want a little bit more coverage It doesn't make my under eyes look dry and I love this to spot conceal - I feel like it gives the most natural skin like texture Opposed to something that as much as I love the tarte shape tape it's a very thick texture So if you want it to have like a no foundation look and just a lot of tarte shaped tape for me personally That's a little too full coverage to look as natural as Like a spot conceal of this, and I just go through this all the time. I go through so much of it Telling you Moving on we're gonna go ahead and move on to lashes you guys know I need a lash love a lash have to have a lash cannot live without an eyelash This is also a tough category for me because you know part of me was thinking Well, I could work with other lashes, but another part of me It was like what is your go-to like you bring this on every trip? No matter what you have to have it, and it was a tie between two same brand House of Lashes And it was between the Iconics or the Iconic Lites. I'm wearing the Iconic Lites right now you guys know I love me the Iconic That is like I want my eyes to stand out I'm gonna wear that but if I had to choose between the two I think I would go with Lconic Lite which is a little bit thinner of a band more fluffy.

Not as heavy Not as thick and so to me I was like well this is something I can wear with a light glam or a full glam and still feel really confident and comfortable and Just for a fact I always bring these on my trips no matter what I don't even know what look I'm gonna do but I bring the Iconic Lites and I bring the Iconics because you just don't know what kind of what kind of Trip it's about to be. Definitely picking between the two I'm gonna go with Iconic Lites must have when you want to have like a really pretty lit color where it's sparkly, and if you put a lock that's too heavy. It's almost like when you open your eyes Where did it go, but this one you can see the sparkles through the lash, which I like this next item I was gonna just feel like you guys are gonna be mad at me because It's sold out, but there's one thing that I go to always have on my lips. It is definitely the Dose of Colors Collaboration that Katy and I did Over the Top gloss okay, this is the best gloss in my opinion not because Katy and I made it but Kind of cos Katy and I made it We just obviously made something that we both loved so much and we wear it all the time So it's just my favorite, and if you got it I'm so happy that you got it, but if you didn't pick it up Then my second gloss that I always wear, which is actually what I'm wearing now And is so beautiful and that is the Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb.

It just looks so nice as well and what I love about this is it's very universal as so is ours because it doesn't have this one isn't meant to have a crazy undertone You could wear it with anything or just bare, which is really how I like to wear it I'm wearing the Fenty one bare right now, and this goes with everyone's skin tone. It smells really good Mmm So these are just my go-to everyday glosses like you just want to be out the door boom boom boom Put it on really quick. You don't have to wear anything underneath I don't have to worry about a lipstick a lip liner all that stuff is just like I want to look fresh And I want my lips to look slutty So these are the two I go for the next item I'm going to talk about is a face powder This is a setting powder, and this is the Charlotte Tilbury airbrush flawless finish powder. I've been using this forever now I have not once really changed it up of course I always test product because that's my job, and I try things all the time But it's the things that I go back to you everyday that are always in my purse that I'm putting in this video right so this is the best powder because it's so finely milled you can continuously put this on our nose or anywhere you get oily throughout the day, and it doesn't cake up or look like you've been just constantly putting on your makeup all day like it somehow finds a way to still look fresh and just lightly powdered and not crazy This is such a good powder for the under eyes too if you're not into baking because I that's not for everybody you don't want To bake every day.

I mean you might III feel like sometimes I just want to really quickly this works really well under the eyes and also around the face It's just you can put it all over. There's no flashback. It's excellent. I use the shade 2 medium Just melts in the skin.

I'm just bouncing around here because I want to keep you entertained I want to keep you here . Next thing we're going to talk about is a hair tie your tie say like what how boring? No, this is the best hair device that I have ever used in my life. So this is what they call a bungee it is to put your hair up And it is the best so what you do with this is you hold your hair up And then you take one side of the hook you hook it into the base of your pony and you wrap it around tight if you want your hair snatched back, or if you have thick hair and you find that wrapping a pony around your hair It's like the fourth wrap around is too small, but the third isn't tight enough you know what I'm saying This will solve all your problems, so you wrap it around and then when you get back to the base You just hook it into your hair. It never comes out it never comes loose It is the best thing ever actually I had a hair stylist use one of these on me and my face was lifted, okay I was like I.

Couldn't blink but in the best way. If you try to do my hair in a ponytail without this I can't really trust you anymore. You know like this is just the best device ever you can order them on Amazon They have them at certain hair supply stores they're Life-changing and it's also something that I have in my bag Because just in case I want to do a snatched pony have to have this obviously you guys know I'm not gonna do a video like this without including a brow product, okay? There is one product that I feel like doesn't do the same thing that any other product does for me And that is the benefit Ka-Brow number 4 and I could definitely use just a brow pencil But I'm never gonna get the feathery hair like strokes Like I do with this Ka-Brow this one is just the one that works the best for me And I don't want to use another brow product This is the best I could live with this and what's cool about it Is that it also cuts down on one of my must-have brushes because it has a built in brow brush also It's very very water resistant I can jump in a pool I can jump in the ocean I can get rained on I mean don't wipe Obviously it stays on if you just give it a little pat. Don't ever wipe.

I just love this stuff. It's so good I mean, I can't live without it There's so many things that I could put in this video But I'm keeping it too what like really you can't live without so the next thing. I'm gonna talk about is highlight I have 2 highlight category options the first one is of course you guys already know Fuego This is a highlight that Katy and I created with Dose of Colors. And it's just the best like I love it so so much.

I also love Mirame. Which is the other highlight, but I'm a little bit less tan right now You know cuz it's colder, so this just works better for my skin tone now But they're both the same formula and just so amazing. I love the way it looks like a wet sheen Oh, it's just everything about it. This is my go-to everyday highlight.

I use it all the damn time. Another product that I love to use for glow and I picked this one even though I do use a lot of liquid highlighters you Guys already know what liquid highlighters I'm obsessed with this is something that's very unique and that I haven't really really seen anywhere else and I feel like I can't get the effect with a lot of other products so Sephora perfect mist Nude Glow this is a Sephora product you give it a little spritz on your cheekbone. Which is a little difficult to spray. I'm not gonna lie It's like you have to get the right angle Do you see did something happen or did it just take it there let me tell you guys something about this glow It is a spray glow not super pigmented or anything But just has just enough of a sheen that oh my god If you're taking pictures if you're on a red carpet the is just gonna be like BAM if you're under lights It's gonna look amazing.

Honestly if you're getting married This is so beautiful even if you're not a huge highlight person you could just do this a light spray of this in the high points and in your Photos you're just gonna look so healthy without looking sparkly flash photography you're taking your senior portrait You're at your quinceanera game over. I don't know why more people don't talk about it. I'm telling you guys It's it's amazing the next item. I cannot live without is this mascara.

It's the Mack Extended Play mascara. This is another one of those items that I'm just kind of like don't give me any other type of mascara. I will use other mascaras the reason I mostly love this one is for my bottom lashes I don't really I could use any mascara on the top lashes, but as far as my bottom lashes I feel like I need a tiny tiny wand and I need a formula that's gonna build up my lashes so that it looks like I have more than I do and so far I found that this is the one that does out the best for me it just fakes people into thinking I have a lot more lashes, and I just feel comfortable using it I can't really speak for upper lashes with this mascara Because I don't use it for that. If I had to say upper mascara I would say like waterproof for sure But this this for my lower lashes is it for me.

So next up we have the Mac Cosmetics strobe cream, and this is in the shade Gold Lite. There's a lot of like glowy moisturizers out there a lot of things that give you a radiance There's something about this particular color that I haven't seen in another glowy radiant lotion, and this doesn't have a tint which I like It's just a strobe cream. I love it so much. I put it on the high points of my face especially on no makeup days it gives you a little life Without making you look like you are wearing makeup because you're not.

If you want to look good at the gym because you're single and you're looking to like you know meet somebody that's not me, but I'm saying if that's you and you don't want to wear makeup But you still want to look like "hey" this stuff looks so good like imagine. You're under the gym lighting which isn't that good but you just have a little strobe cream. It's like sets you apart from the rest. You know you're just mmm mmm mmm I don't even know what it's like to be single anymore I can't even like remember the days maybe I don't want to remember.

You know trainwreck Mac Fix Plus, this is tried and true. This is a staple. This is just like never fails me. It's not something that's gonna make your makeup last all night It's not like meant to be an all-night setting spray But it makes your powders melt into the skin it makes it everything look not powdery.

It makes your highlight look way more intense if that's what you want. I use this to like, amplify my eyeshadows. I use it to amplify my highlight sometimes I even use it to just like cool myself down if I'm stressed like and then I just feel like calm again. If I went somewhere I finished my makeup and I didn't have this I would be kind of like what do I do and the last item that I cannot live without is hair Extensions.

Okay hair extensions are a must for me I feel like I love to add more fullness to my hair sometimes. I want to wear my hair short, but sometimes I want long hair, and it's just so fun to change up your look, and it's an easy way to do that I've been wearing extensions since I was like 18 okay 18, so if they've been in my life that long it tells me two things. One, I love extensions. Two, stop cutting your hair.

I keep cutting my hair. Even if you have long hair say you have like long hair, but it's not as full as you want I know a lot of people who wear extension just for fullness But it is fun to play up your look change it up. You know one day, you're short one day you're long you can have a long ponytail. It's just so much fun and and so easy to do and these are the best they're from the Hair Shop.

The Hair Shop I swear just has the color that was made for me. All their extensions are like great blends There's different types of extensions These are clip ins and I like them because they're just easy you don't have to sleep in em At the end of the night you just take it all off and you can sleep comfortably These are a Skin Weft they're the thinnest thinnest thinnest material here You could see scalp through where the hair comes out of it You can lay them as flat to the top of your hairline as you need to like right there And I could still manage to hide them because they are so thin I can't even imagine a time where I would go on a trip and not bring my hair extensions I can't fathom it. No I cannot. All right so that's it.

Those are the top ten beauty products that I cannot -I cannot- live without. I'm curious to know if there's one product that you guys can't live without like just the top of your head leave it in the comments down below, and yeah, thank you guys so much for watching. I'll see you guys in the next video. Bye I've had it since I was Shh Nothing wrong with a little beverage it's past noon.

It's all good Sounds like there's What was that? Tired skiiiiin. Skiiiiiiiin. Skiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin. Skin..

Things of Beauty Super Smash Bros. as Spectator Sport

It all started with a piece on Kotaku ranking the best moments in the history of competitive gaming It did floated by me on Twitter And I guess I had something I felt like Procrastinating that day because I clicked the link and it's perhaps a sign of my age that I still expected thresh versus immortal to show Up anyway topping the list was a very famous clip of a street fighter match between Daigo and Justin Wong that I had never seen before which culminated in this moment I was amazed when I saw this actually I was confused I had to google what I was even looking at but then I was amazed basically everything else on the list was either incomprehensible Or uninteresting to me as a person who didn't play any of the games mentioned but even without having played street fighter since grade school This struck me as a thing of beauty. A couple years later some podcast or other I was listening to mentioned that Evo Which is kind of the Super Bowl of fighting games was about to begin and I was "free" that week So I streamed some of the competition and it was the same deal as with the Kotaku piece Street Fighter was endlessly fascinating to me, but the other games on the roster just Weren't. They weren't accessible to me. The commentators would describe what was happening in ways that were really interesting in an abstract Game theory sense, and it seemed probably quite exciting for the people who played these games But as my relationship began and ended with watching.

I just couldn't get into it. Which is the same relationship I have with sports actually I often find sports interesting to read about or to think about because I like games and systems But.. As entertainment? I don't give a fuck about sports, but the exception at Evo, besides Street Fighter, was Smash Specifically Melee which of all the games that Evo was the least like Street Fighter And I ended up watching a crap ton of it It was so fast, so dynamic, so unpredictable and that may have been true of the other games at Evo I'm not ruling it out. I just couldn't tap into it.

They didn't work for me as a spectator Maybe the Linchpin here is that street fighter and Melee were the only games present that I had played even a little bit But, then again, I've never found competitive Soul Calibur interesting, and I've played a lot of Soul Calibur But the seed was planted. Later when I heard about the Smash Brothers Documentary I thought "Yeah, I'd watch that." And I liked it. I mean I had problems with it of course I did, they treated their only female Smasher as no more interesting than somebody's girlfriend. Awesome Well done guys, but overall I liked it then a bit later I bought my house mates old Gamecube, borrowed my girlfriend's copy of Melee and picked up Captain Falcon Because..

Why not? Then I started watching Youtube videos of captain Falcon players to, you know, learn through osmosis... And I found myself watching games by the other players I'd seen in the Falcon matches and picking up all the terminology from the commentators and before I knew what was happening I was ranting to anyone who would listen about the time Ax 4 stocks Silent Wolf on FOD in under a minute with a mid-tier character by identically executing the same absolutely amazing offstage Edge-guard and shh... It. I'm a sports fan.

How did this happen? Listen to me I sound like Robin Williams in "Good Will Hunting": "...That's not because he's, he's waving at the Bowl like a madman, he's gonna "Right" Tell me if this sounds familiar since Captain Falcon was the first character I picked up I have this total and Irrational loyalty to him and will almost always root for Falcon in any matchup even as I know No one's won a major tournament with him in years and I'm picking up the entire history of Falcon players: the old master who retired in his prime when he lost the love of the game; the former king of Falcon who's now a traitor for switching to Fox; the new King who's relentlessly fast, but can't guard the edge; and the elegant, graceful west coast Up-and-comer. I've got players I think are punks for possibly no good reason other than it feels good to root against a villain; there are the [quote-unquote] "Five Gods" who win basically every tournament so I, as a rule, root against them in any matchup Until they start playing each other and then I have favorites. I get to this level of investment And Smash ceases to be just a game It's drama - a collection of stories with comebacks and tragedies, monsters and savants and most of these stories Probably aren't true, but they feel true now maybe you already love smash and this isn't news to you or maybe you love sports and are wondering why I should get so Invested in a video game or maybe you don't care about either, and you just love me and don't worry I love you too. All I can do today is try to explain why I.

Personally love competitive Smash, so that's what I'm gonna try to do, okay? Okay. First, some context: Chris DeLeon has a series of articles and a degree talk about the idea that Sports and Board games have RULES - but video games have LAWS - that in soccer you don't touch the ball with your hands because you've agreed not to, but in Fifa you don't touch the ball with your hand because it's impossible - there's no button for it So in a sport, you can do anything that is not expressly forbidden by the rules. In a videogame You can't do anything except what is expressly allowed by the system So in the case of something like Daigo versus Justin Wong, what happened? Is that Justin Executed a super art combo at a time when Daigo couldn't take even a single hit and his only option was to parry every single hit of the combo which means knowing the exact timing of every hit down to a few Sixtieth of a second. The technical proficiency required to do this is off the charts But it's something the developers knew would be possible from the moment they allowed super moves to be parried.

However incredible this is, and it is incredible, it's something the system was designed to do but the thing about systems is there's what the system was meant to do and then there's what the system can't stop you from doing. In Smash an advanced technique like say, a shield drop, is put there by the designers But things like Pivoting, Wavedashing and D-sinking are not. These things were not designed They were discovered as accidents of the system And they often take phenomenal skill to execute reliably because it's something the game doesn't actively want you to do, but they are just as integral to competitive play as the things designers put in there on purpose, so Watching a high level smash game is sort of like watching High-level Street Fighter But it's also like watching someone rocket-jump their way through Quake or like watching Humans learn to fly in Half-Life 2 or watching Siglemic parkour his way through Mario 64 - none of these things are done by hacking the code But they're all done by people interested not just in what the game wants to do but in everything the game is capable of. It's akin to taking a game's rules and making a new game out of them.

This makes Smash creative in a way that a more controlled fighting game generally isn't. There's a reason we say Isaiah invented Falkon; that Axe invented Pikachu; a reason why "hax stashing" is named after Hax; why "wobbling" is named after Wobbles; why this is called the "Ken combo" - these people quite literally changed the game Every so often the Melee community does tier rankings of all the playable characters listing each in order of their supposed tournament viability and sectioning the list into chunks: Which chunk can win tournaments; which chunk can place in tournaments; which chunk has basically been abandoned by serious players and Forest Smith has made a few handy charts showing just how much the tier lists have changed since release. Some characters rose after years in the mid-tiers, some tanked after being considered dominant, some went down, then up, then down again but once in a great while someone starts fiddling with a forgotten character from the lower tiers and unlocks their potential. This has already happened with Jigglypuff and Pikachu and something exciting about Smash today is it may be just starting to happen again So, let's talk about a specific match that I think can illustrate a few points.

If you follow competitive Smash you likely already know it aMSa [Vs] mew2king at Kings of Cali 4, consider the matchup: mew2king Is a central figure in the Documentary - one of the Five Gods. He's one of the best players in the history of the game. To take a set off one of the gods is considered a towering achievement - hell, taking a single game, sometimes even a single stock, is impressive. Meanwhile, aMSa is a Yoshi player from Japan, one of the few Japanese players to attend American tournaments, and Yoshi is not considered tournament viable - he's solidly low tier and what work was being done with him was largely abandoned several years ago aMSa had impressed over the previous years with Yoshi at EVO and APEX, but many still wrote him off as a gimmick player and it surprised no one when mew2king took the first game of the set with two stocks remaining.

The commentator is understandably skeptical of aSAm's chances - "Man. I love aMSa but can you see him taking a match? Ehh-mm." - But them, unexpectedly, aMSa of the Red Yoshi took game two. "Oh, that's what Mew2king wanted... That's what Mew2king wanted...

OOOHH!! And then aMSa, the Red Yoshi, took game three. OH!! These eggs... Don't make sense... That's it..

OOOOHHHH!!! OH MY GOD!!! Gabriel, please, show the whole crowd!! Try to understand what's happening here: To use a baseball metaphor - Playing Yoshi at the tournament level is kind of like pitching a knuckleball - which, I guess, makes aMSa R. A. Dickey Thrown poorly, a knuckleball is just a slow somewhat unpredictable pitch but quoting a real-life baseball fan on Metafilter because, once again, I don't give a fuck about sports - Little in Baseball is as much fun as watching a knuckleballer on a good night You can almost see the batter's having nervous breakdowns at the plate.The rub is that to throw a knuckleball well, you have to abandon practicing any other kind of pitch. That's how hard it is.

Consequently almost no Major League pitchers throw them, but, consequently, almost no Major League batters have practice hitting them It's the beautiful push-pull of the metagame: the more everyone does one thing, the more valuable it becomes to do Anything else. In this set mew2king has been playing Sheik and if you're aMSa in this scenario playing at the tournament level you've played hundreds of Sheiks, hundreds of Foxes, hundreds of Marths . Hundreds of Falcons. But if you're Mew2king, how many competitive level Yoshi's do you think you've played? The answer is: None.

There are no competitive level Yoshi's, not since Leffen switched to Fox and even then Leffen  never did this: Winning it smash is not just about knowing your character But knowing the matchup, knowing what your opponent is likely to do and what you can do in response and not so much what aMSa is doing but the WAY he's doing it has largely never been seen before. So ok it's game for aMSa is up [2] to [1] and the set goes to the first player to get three wins This is game point for aMSa and between games [3] and [4] Mew2king switches to Fox and that might just mean something. See there's this veiling theory [slash] joke [slash] "superstition" that sooner or later everyone will switch to Fox Fox and his near clone Falco have been ranked as the best characters in the game for years. You look at the rankings of the top 100 smash players and Fox's all over it.

Four of the Five Gods have Fox or Falco in their arsenal. Fox is extremely hard to play well but go up against a well played Fox and just what are you even supposed to do? And I've always read that with this undercurrent that to play anyone other than Fox is an affectation that you play Captain Falcon either because you're not good enough with Fox or because you're so good that you can even win without Fox so it's easy to read Mew2king character switch as saying: "Okay, We've had fun but good luck with this." And it's easy to reframe this match as being between two aspects of the meta game on the one side that in an unbalanced system and Smash was never balanced for this kind of play, there is often one dominant strategy that trumps all others and on the other side that knuckleball, the weirdness and variety that can trump a dominant strategy just by being different. And for me being a person who fell in love with the weirdness and variety of Smash Someone whose heart would be broken if Smash became an endless stream of Fox dittos, this match starts to mean something and this This right here. This is so incredibly sweet.

"That's it!" "AMSa takes it! He does a Shuryuken in celebration!" Wow! Now I will be the first to say it: I'm reaching. Of course I'm reaching. I've taken a mixture of true skills, statistical probability and blind luck in who the fuck knows what proportions and made it into a story and by necessity that means I'm leaving things out, for instance that mew2king isn't of "Foxes The Future" type - he switches to Marth at least as often as he switches to Fox. In fact many would argue that the top Of the top tier is rock-Paper-scissors between Fox, Falco, Sheik and Marth is it this way or that way? I don't remember.

And mew2king often plays worse when the crowd is against him or at least that's how the stories go and the stories feel true. The truth is there are no sabermetrics in Smash, a few stats are tracked But no one's calculated the vegas odds on aMSa VS. Mew2king Did aMSa win at two-to-one against or 50-to-one - we don't know. Does Mew2king actually lose more often when the crowd is against him or is that confirmation bias? We don't know.

Does aMSa have any staying power or will he slide back down the power rankings once other players figure out his bag of tricks? How much will he adapt to the competitive scene and how much will the competitive scene adapt to him? We don't know. The power rankings, the tier lists? They're all calculated by casting votes - opinions. Competitive smash is built entirely out of stories. It's not just a game, It's theater.

And just because something's a story doesn't mean it isn't also true, at least partially, I do see aMSa as a sign that a sea of Foxes would leave everyone ill-equipped to fight anything other than Fox. And as a beacon of hope that Smash will stay weird, at least for a little while. I'm reminded of Chuck Klosterman writing about football describing the time when suddenly every team was relying heavily on the read option and how in a few years they would almost certainly all be doing something else and being that that essay is a few years old by now they presumably are. And it makes me think of how different the Smash of today already looks from the Smash of the Documentary and wonder how different from today Smash may look in a few years.

It's hard to believe that Smash will ever bore me, and that's a story I hope is true. And I've gathered that this kind of mythologizing is what Sports fans do. Do you remember that cynical line from "High Fidelity" that insists we make connections not based on who we are but whether we like the same things? "What really matters is what you like. Not what you are like." I've always felt that making connections is less about what you like than why you like it.

So I can still honestly say that I don't give a fuck about sports But smash makes me feel like for the first time I think I get why people do Which is an interesting feeling for a former high school nerd because holy hell I love this game! And I love telling people why I love it I love how different all the characters are even as I hate Fox I love the racial diversity of the players even as I don't so much love their monolithic maleness. I love the commentators I hate the trash talk. I love spending the morning watching Captain Falcon matches and then practicing short hops with my girlfriend. I..

LOVE.. THIS.. GAME. And if you don't give a fuck about Smash That's fair you do you I'm not trying to pressure you into liking what I like I just hope you see how it's even possible For something so weird and seemingly innocuous to inspire so much passion.

How a party game that's basically the video game equivalent of a twelve-Year-old smashing their toys together can be fun, hilarious, freakishly complex and, from the right vantage point, even.. Beautiful. Oh... Oh..

Oh.. WHAT?? OOHHHHHH!! What the crap?! Are you kidding me?! Did that just happen?! What.. What.. I just kicked my bike over, bro?.

The Beauty Trend Glass Skin and How to Get It

- Everyone out there, put
away the contour sticks, because the latest beauty trend
is all about natural skin. A beauty blogger's photo of
her perfect skin is taking over the internet, and set
a new standard in beauty as commenters are calling it glass skin. One of the most important
steps in achieving glass skin is washing your face before
bed, but the days of soap and water, some say are long gone. So today, we're going to tell
you which cleansing trends are worth the buzz, and which
ones are a complete bust.

- So first up is powder cleanser. So powders have been around. They've been in makeup
regimens for a very long time. But this is kind of new twist,
where sometimes, like taken from some Japanese skincare regimens.

They have rice enzymes
to brighten your skin. But the idea is you take
the powder, and you actually will very gradually mix
drops of water into it, and you use it as an exfoliant. And you can kind of
tailor it to how foaming or how thick you want to
the degree of exfoliation, and they're also getting a
lot more pickup and interest because they don't often have
preservatives, or alcohol, or other ingredients
that people don't want. - So this would be on my face
theoretically, and you use a little spritzer.

- Exactly. So you can make it as diluted
or as course as you want. So it's just a natural
cleanser and exfoliant. So this one is definitely
getting much more buzz.

(Audience clapping) - Buzz! Bruski, what d'ya got going on? - Micellar water. Do you know what micellar
water is, young man? - Well, I know what micelles
are, but I do not know what micellar water is. - Okay, micelles, that's right. It's micelles.

It's balls of oil molecules
that are suspended in soft water. How did this concept start? Well, back in the day
when plumbing wasn't quite as good as it is now, the
water came out very harsh. It was not good on your face. They discovered this in
France, then they came up with this idea, micellar water.

It's popular here now, but we
don't really have the issue of harsh water like we did years ago, so is this really necessary? - I'm not gonna drink that water. I'll tell you that. - It is the bust! (Audience groaning) - Make sense. You can save some money if
you're gonna spend more money.

- [Dr. Stork] It sounds
really fancy, though. - It sounds fancy. Like, oil suspended in water.

That's kind of an interesting idea. - It is going to moisturize
your skin at the same time, and I guess they get the pH
right, and it is soft water. - So it's not gonna hurt ya. - No, no.

It just may not be worth the cost. - [Dr. Ordon] If she's taking that home, I'm taking this home. - So last, but not least, is
something called face polish.

And so one thing,
especially if you're going for this poreless, really
clear look is exfoliation and dermatologists are sort
of obsessed with this idea that you're trying to slough
those dry, dead skins. You're trying to clean out the pores. The only difference between
a polish is that it's just much finer grains than
the old scrubs that tend to be a little bit harsher. - Some of them can feel
almost abrasive when you're putting them on.
- [Dr.

Batra] Exactly. - So that would eliminate that. - So this would be a much more gentle way. Maybe two or three times
a week, just to really kind of help turn over the skin.

Another route if you don't want
something physical like this would be a chemical exfoliant. Those are things like alpha
hydroxy acids, like glycolic, lactic. Beta hydroxies or salicylic acid. Those are all the chemical
exfoliants that help turn over your skin.

But we're finding that if you
do that a couple times a week, that really help expedite
your cell turnover, gives you a little bit more glow. This one is definitely a buzz as well. (Buzzing).

That's like Key component of these things The metal on these do get super hot so do be careful so I can definitely see how it could curl your hair And they give you a lot because I still have a lot left over but if you have super long hair You'll probably have to do half your head take them out and do the other half and something I didn't realize that small ones and big ones so while these are pulling off I'm going to test out the Iris by  and this is the illuminating eye massager Younger and refreshed looking eyes.  Helps reduce puffiness, bags and dark circles. Smoothes the appearance of crows feet, fine lines, and wrinkles. Rejuvenates.

So it looks like this. It looks like a little...It looks like a sex toy. DO you hear that? Do you see that? Oh, my. You strange little creature and turned it down and you can turn it back up if you want to this one's pink.

I think they Have in different colors so sephora says eight speeds waterproof. This is really starting to sound like a sex toy. Maybe it goes on your eye like this. Does it? I'm confused all right for once I'm going to read the directions peeps all right party people I did my extensive research It's really hard to turn on it hurts my hand And you're supposed to first adjust how strong you want it, and then you just work it from inner to Outer eye.

Just like this and I read the reviews on sephora.Com And they are mixed. Some people say it did absolutely nothing and they returned it and some people say that this For you are Iris. Tool right here reduce the puffiness and it was noticeable.  It is a hundred and Forty doll hairs One hundred and forty Dollars people kind of considering using this but my god lake I pulled out all these gadgets at night and use used them.

Ain't nobody got time for that.  It doesn't hurt my eye is comfortable to do to use expensive. It seems a little bit, Gimmicky Take a drink.  My hair is done.

I'm going to take it on these I wanted to say lightly You know remove it out of these, but there we go. My hair is a little bit wavy before oh, no that came from the curler. Wow look at that ow Yeah, but like it's weird because I oh my curls are at the bottom. Can't wait to take this one out up front, its Super annoying oh Ouch ouch ouch.

That is fabulous,seriously though. He hasn't touched bottom of that one They're pretty uncomfortable, but you know that's just a part of life ow. Oh, oh There goes there goes my hair definitely has like that lift oh Yeah, I mean Yeah That worked like a lot of hair happening right now I mean look at that overall that I'm not I don't hate that I mean You know I would have to style this a little more but and I would have to get better round brushing my hair It gave you the volume it said it would give you so I say it works I just say it's a little difficult to work with now. Now let's jump into a few of the makeup products I'm actually I'm going to clip this hair out of my face.

The first odd product we have is the CoverFX. Custom blot drops.  These are blotting sheets in liquid form so their supposed to be an oil controling product. I just said oil does that make you guys happy instead of saying ole So basically says online that you can use it alone, you use it in your moisturizer You can use [it] in your foundation on top of your foundation.

It says you can use [it] however you want to use it almost like a thick whipped Consistency. Feels thicker than just an average serum I really want to do is mix this in one of my liquidy foundation.  Like see there? Mm-hmm. I'm just going to mix it together The foundation's texture is changing a little bit you see that how it's like Separating and kinda strange.

Skins like what are you doing to me today? I'm going to take my morphe Y6 brush and blend out the foundation. Oh, this is strange the foundation feels a Little weird, it almost feels a little more tacky, and this is the makeup forever And I will say just right off the bat the foundation is 100% matte. Can you tell like it almost looks like I have a powder on That's super matte. I just applied this foundation.

It's normally still wet and not only does Makeup Forever foundation doesn't have just like a flat ah Solid matte finish like this.  That is cool. It's like my foundation kind of dried way quicker and It made the foundation like super matte.  Blot some of this maybe even on a beauty blender, and it just like mattifies everything Very interesting product.

Um, I don't hate it It's on personal preference of course. I'm not mad about it alright and for my fifth its product I'm gonna be testing out this quite strange is So glossy eyes have kind of came into a bit of a trend lately and I actually Love the look.  What I have is eye vinyl these are like eye markers from Milk Makeup, and they're called eye vinyl. I have two shades.

What you're supposed to do is like color across your eyes with eyes of these and have this cool Look it has a sponge applicator, and you just crank it up and there it is. I'm a little nervous Okay, not every day I put like a black and goo substance on my eye I'm just pushing around the product oh my God There's the only time I. Dead serious I see this being like a practical thing to wear is in an editorial photo, shoot It's very even in color Its not creasing. It's not running down my face yet.

It feels just as disgusting as it looks. Next I'm going to go ahead Just because we're here. We're having a great time. We're having fun today I'm going to try the peachy one.

You see you're poking through is clear clear across the eyes party people. This is how you? Can even take your finger? I mean really and just Wow, look at that One steps glossy eye look I mean seriously Just like boom, wet eye. That's pretty if you're into the wet eye trend I mean, this is it.  This is it in a stick.

I will say my eyes little heavy, but they don't feel like they're not sticking with you touches very like. The wet eye look in general. Would you try it? Would you wear it out? Comment your thoughts on that Thank you guys for being here Watching that's it And I love you guys so much be sure to subscribe to my channel before you leave and ill see you in my next video!

SUMMERTIME FAVORITESTRACY CAMPOLIFITNESS FASHION BEAUTY

Hey it's Tracy and welcome back to my
channel and today I'm gonna be doing some of my summertime favorites I
haven't on a favorites video of what feels like forever so I really hope
that you liked it and if you're new here hello, I'm Tracy I put up a brand new fitness wellness and lifestyle videos every
single week so if you're not already go down and click that subscribe button and
make sure to click on that little bell icon for everybody so that you get
notifications so you know every single time I have a brand new video that goes
live. So full transparency my camera is doing something weird right now and I
have no idea there's something showing up with a viewfinder that I've never
seen before so fingers crossed that this video turns out looking good and I think
we should just go into it anyway so let's start with some activeware um you
probably know this about me or maybe you don't but one of them my favorite brands
is Lululemon I'm just a die-hard you know when I was teaching Pilates those
things yeah they're expensive but they freakin last forever but you know let's face it, spending like a hundred bucks on a pair of leggings you know if you're
not like the fitness professional it's a lot of money so I went to good ol TJ
Maxx the other day and I found these I. Actually got two pairs of these this is
from a company called yoga licious the quality of these leggings is uh-ma-zing
I love them they have like a good high waist not quite as high as the Lululemon
high waist the material is great it's not see-through so you don't have to
worry about like bending over and giving a show, this particular pair has a cute little and I was gonna see it like just a little detail on the back
the cap I love them they're really comfortable they're great so I got this
awesome gray color that I love and then I also got
this pink color I would have gotten more if I found more colors but this is what
I found in TJ Maxx I went on their website yoga
licious I will leave it down below they're not sponsoring this video but
like really really great company and the quality is fantastic and these I think
retail for around like $30 which is like a third of the price of Lululemon so I
love this color really nice great for summer cute you know how many pairs of
black leggings does a girl need well like a million but we want to mix up our
options so get pink at the gray all good things so I hope that you check them out
so let's go into bags because I actually have two bags so the first one here is
one from Teddy Blake I love this company I just think that their quality of their
bags and the price point is fantastic I. Feature them actually in one of my other
favorites video sometime ago I can try to link that above but I just love how
classic this is so this is a crossbody but I like crossbodies where you can do
a crossbody or you could just you know let it hang out on one shoulder this is
called the Sarah Vitello it's the 7 inch one it's just a
single of a very simple bag here one little pocket but it's light it's
perfect for summer you know if you're wearing like a white out of it this is
just such a cute color you know denim shorts and Teddy Blake I just really
like their stuff so they did send this to me and I did hook you guys up
with a discount code so I will leave that code here on the screen and you'll
get $20 off any order that you make so I.

Really like I mean honestly the quality
is fantastic it's really really high at a great price point so yay for this one
next up is another bag and this is the bag it's like I literally
stopped on the street all the time when I use this bag can we discuss like hello
like this is like summer in a bag so this is actually I know this is totally
a knockoff of a brand which I can't remember the name off the top of my head
but I got this on Amazon and I got a flat $40 and I'm telling you men women
like people stop me on the street all the time and I'm like oh my god that bad
I love it so it is light it's light as can be it is perfect perfect perfect for
summertime I've been wearing a lot of white lately and it's just such a great
you know it's a statement piece but it's light it's comfortable you know the only
thing that I would say because obviously it's all made from this like bamboo
whatever it's made out of I usually I do this anyway but like you want to make
sure that you know all the things that you're putting in here about just loose
which you shouldn't be doing anyway so just make sure that you're carrying your
keys and anything that you're putting in your person like a little pooch here but
I love it I mean it is honestly like it is my bag of the summer so this is an
awesome awesome option I love it and if I want something that I'm not carrying
in my hand it's this one these are like my two summer bags that I'm freaking
obsessed with right now so yeah you definitely just check us out I will
leave it down below you'll love it you can thank me later
send me a little picture send me a DM on Instagram because it's just an awesome
let's go to sunglasses this is so funny so these are these took me a while to
get into but now I'm really into them when I first got them I was like I don't
know they're kind of very retro they're very you know but I was like I'm just
not sure but now like I felt like I look like a space character or something I
don't know why but I love these so I got these actually on the street
these are $10 there I just love the retro shape I love the red pop of color
I always like them I don't know why but I tend to like them more
pairs up just randomly but that's just how I feel but I love them these are
great great shades so I don't know the brand here I'll try to find something
similar for you online you know ten bucks like to spruce up your outfit so I
will tell you something interesting that's been going on I've been trying
not to actually buy a lot of clothes except for the Zara sale that just
happened and I just bought a ton of clothes but aside from that I really
haven't bought a lot of clothing items this summer you know I just don't want
to waste I realized that how much I. Ended up buying things that I just wear
them for one season or just like a couple times so one thing I've started
doing they're not sponsoring this video is I am playing with I'm not sure if I
love it but I like it is Rent the Runway there what is it called update so you
get four pieces each month and it's just I just feel a little bit better about
doing that because I'm not being such a consumer I'm not just being wasteful you
know it's like you get a new item either four items that the level that I'm on
it's like you get four items each month I think it's about 100 bucks a month and
you know that way you get some little updates to your wardrobe but you're not
you know just buying something wearing it once or twice and that I end up
donating it anyway I just feel like you know I'm
just creating a lot of waste so I'm trying that out for now I'll let you
know like how much I love it the fits are not for me perfect you know
because obviously every body is different so I find that a lot of times
I'll like have something on it might be like oh it looks good but like all the
waster might be some of my tail or something that you're just renting but
that is something that I've been playing with so just just a little side note
there all right next things that I have are all beauty because you know I love a
good beauty product so I'll go to the hair first The Ouai Memory Mist this is
the first Ouai product I've purchased and I love it,  it's amazing it deserves a song why do
I love it because I have frizzy Italian like crazy hair. If I let my hair air dry I
basically look like Sammy Hagar so this is great because I'll just spray it on
my hair when it's dry and then I'll use my flat iron to kind of organize the
wave is what I like to call it and it basically like the next day I never had
an experience like this where it's like the next day I don't have to wash my
hair and I can just brush my hair maybe put just a little bit of like some oil
or something and it just you know that parts that get frizzy for me it's like
right here this areas always left my frizz pile and the rest of it will look
fine and it's amazing so I'm able to now like you know just protect the health of
my hair because I'm not having to do my hair like every day I don't wash it
every day I probably wash it every third or fourth day but this is really helping
the style and I love it I got this before I'll link it down
it smells really good too my husband likes about class beauty beauty beauty
uh drunk elephant the love retro whipped cream oh my god I featured this in my
New York City spa day it was relatively speaking new to me and now it is like I
get it I totally get the drunk elephant hype this is amazing it's it's a fairly
rich cream but it doesn't feel heavy if that makes sense
I love the mechanism where you kind of squeeze it down so you don't put your
finger in it in the cream - you know which gives germs and dirt and all that
kind of stuff so I love that their quality of
ingredients is amazing I love this company they're becoming my new hashtag
bestie they actually I'm so honored they actually sent me the entire line so
this I actually purchased so FYI. But then they sent me like literally
every single product so I will definitely keep you posted on this and
everything I've been using a drunk elephant so far I'm like holy &*# it's really
really good like I get it I was late on this game and like there's a reason why
there's so much hype it.

Thank you drunk elephant but I did purchase
this and it's awesome and I know that you'll love it too. Two other things one
I'll start with more gangster one because I don't even know the color I
will try to find out the color this is a wet and wild pencil which is old it's
kind of a bronzy color and here's why I. Love it two reasons lining your
waterline with this it gives you this kind of this is what I did today it
gives you this sort of like glistening look in your eyes so it's like
glistening and smoky at the same time where I can't really describe it but I
love it and then I also have just been lining the top of my lid so instead of
using like a darker color you just it's like this nice bronze color you can get
right into the lashes I just think it's a perfect perfect color for summertime
and it's awesome and it's wet and wild so it's really inexpensive but it's
great you know just throw it in your makeup bag it's with just a really great
way to jazz up your look, why am I going this? I don't know what's going on here but and the last thing is
something I have actually featured before I went away from it that I went
back to it so we're like in a relationship we broke up we got back
together it's a glossier boy brow there's just
not one that's better you know I was using the benefit give me brow which is
good it's good but this is better like the glossy boy brow is just the bomb
I just feel like it it really does give me that boy brow look I'm able to get my
eyebrows like straight up I love the color for me I use blonde it's perfect
at last just I don't know this just it's the best so this is like honestly the
best ones that I found out there but I'd love to hear from you definitely leave
me a comment below and I will link everything that I can down here in the
description box just roll on down you will see the links girl so now that I've
got for you for my summertime favorites I'd love to hear from you please do
