Anyone else relying on RUclips as a distraction during this whole social isolation period? Thank goodness for our fav youtubers like estee keeping us entertained! ❤️❤️ stay safe everyone!

I'm watching more RUclips than I have ever watched!
I'm watching more youtube but finding it's not really a distraction as all vlogs are talking about corona. Obviousley completely understand why as it's affecting everyones lives so much, but currently prefer TV shows >youtube for distraction! But it is nice to see that we're all in this together, and not seeing other people have loads of fun
I'm on day 8 of the coronavirus and I feel much better, my fever has gone down. It's been tough being isolated and I'm grateful for some video content to make me think about other stuff :) ! I'd love to have some book content, or recent favorites (book series etc )
Daphné so consoling reading someone has it and is conquering it !! Of course we hear worst case scenarios often but it’s nice to read about a case that’s being beaten ! Good luck !!
It is 10 days I am locked up in my apartment ( Tuscany - Italy ), working from home, going out just for grocery and by the end of the day I am always quite exhausted and my mental health is not so "easy breezy" at the moment .... anyway thanks a lot for your videos, always so soothing and reassuring. Btw I am having the same exact brand of tea ☕️. Cheers to all of us!
I'm on day 7 and only go out around the block to walk my dog and every other day to the corner shop and I am incredibly exhausted. Much more so than if I were to go to work, the gym, and out with friends. Being isolated is so taxing on the body and mind!
Neeeeeeded this video this morning. Having an escape is really important - I live, work and now spend all my free time alone, so it's taking a toll on my mental health big time. Trying to do the same...create some vlogs when I can, try and stay productive, and keep my mental health up!!

I agree. This was filmed a few days ago now and I'm also starting to get very stir crazy!
Ok, several things - 1. Netflix recommendations: Brooklyn 99! iZombie. 2. Yes please continue general at home vlogs, I feel like 99% of your subscribers (including me) love those, because they’re kinda the most relatable. 3. Because we’re all stuck at home, how about sharing a highlight of the day to lift the general mood? Or something similar that we can all join in with? Lots of love 😍
Thanks for the video Estee. Seeing Effie playing in that daffodil patch put a smile on my face! Here are some videos I'd love to see from you: -Plant tour -Favourite books -Walks with Effie or a day in the life of Effie -More stay at home vlogs Take care! 💗
Hi Estée, thanks for keeping making content! :) It's day 4 of quarantine here in France, and it's really weird and scary. Still, I've chosen to feel grateful. I'm super lucky that during the next 2 weeks I get to stay home and still being paid. So I'm not going to complain, not even once. I have friends who work in shops and hospitals and they would love to stay home, safe, and not having to put themselves and their family in danger but they don't have a choice. It's important to remember that. Those of us who get to stay home and still being paid, we are very very lucky and priviliged. And yes, it's gonna be hard and boring, but at least, we're not at work risking to be infected by this virus. Stay safe Estée :)
Hello Estée, just wanted to say thank you for this distraction. The doctor just told us this morning that we can assume that our 4 year old who’s been sick the past three days has the (he who must not be named) virus. He’s doing ok, doesn’t have any severe symptoms but you can imagine how anxious I’ve been. So thank you for keeping me somewhat sane.

Really? I was under the impression that children couldn't get the virus? Am I wrong? So sorry you're going through that x
Estée Lalonde we’ve heard cases of children getting it, but they do recover quickly in general. Let’s hope that’s the case for us too. And anyway, he can’t get tested because it’s not serious enough 🙄 So it could actually be something else and that the doctor has unnecessarily tortured my mental health. Keeping fingers crossed! Thanks for the love Xx
Estée Lalonde children can absolutely get the virus, they’re often just asymptomatic or they have very mild symptoms. That’s the danger: because they don’t often show obvious symptoms, they become perfect carriers of the virus and can spread it everywhere. I’m sorry your four year old is unwell and you’re going through that. I hope they feel better soon!
I appreciate everyone who is posting videos. It really is an escape and in a weird way, it makes me feel better about the future! I have been trying to stay busy and luckily I worked from home already, so it wasn't that much of a change. When I have downtime, I have been doing more deep cleaning in my home that I have wanted to do. I think trying to stay away from the news as much as possible is helpful. Thanks for another great video.
I usually work in an office environment but I've been working from home since Tuesday and I'm feeling so lonely and isolated! I love vlogs like this, maybe I am nosy but I like seeing what others get up to when they're at home too. Getting out for some fresh air on a little walk is all that's keeping me sane right now.
Thank you for your honest, upbeat, and sincere video. I am disappointed by most of youtubers I watch, as they refuse to create content that they will not be paid for while many companies shut down most business during this time. Unlike them, I can tell you truly have a bond with us viewers that extends beyond the routine pay check. You are so true, candid, and calm to watch. Keep it up ❤️
My office has moved to working from home for about a week now. Very thankful we have this option as it’s scary to see so many people losing their jobs right now. I’ve always admired how you seem to always get dressed for the day even though you’re working for home. So I’m doing the same to try to create some positive routines as well as taking a walk around the neighborhood each day. Be safe everyone!
Your vlogs always calm me down, especially the ones where you're just at home chilling, so I definitely wouldn't mind more casual home vlogs ❤️ Cuddling with Effie, showing us your favorite makeup products (I especially find eyeshadow swatching really calming?), eating food, random rambles, all of that goodness!
Found myself saying out loud ‘oh man I love my tea bag squeezed hard’ 😂 thank you so much for continuing to make content, your presence voice is so soothing during this time 💕
This was actually very nostalgic for me, I used to watch your vlogs back in the day that were mostly you staying at home and it was very relaxing. Thanks for the content Estée!
Loved the vlog! Honestly, not looking for any groundbreaking content atm - it’s nice just to have some light viewing as we’re in the same boat. There’s enough heavy stuff on the news and feed, so I really try to put my phone down as much as I can to keep anxiety at low levels
Honestly, it's been so nice to see what people are getting up to in their own homes! I'm already starting to feel a little stir crazy, but watching RUclips videos like this has really helped! Thank you so much Estée
I appreciate you both making content during this time and also acknowledging that things are not normal and that you are in this with us doing your part to reduce the spread.
These are some of my favorite videos of you. I like to see you when you’re just being yourself at home. Thank you for posting this and keeping us entertained. Hope you’re staying safe and healthy.
I have never felt as lonely as I feel right now. I didn't get that many messages from my friends asking how am I, everyone is taking care of themselves and it made me feel even more lonely. My mental health is just in a crazy state right now. I am afraid of the future like I never was before, I am afraid of my life, my job, my studies, my friends and family. I know I am not in the worst situation I could be - I have a place to live, food and water, electricity and Internet, but in my mind everything is so bad and I can't deal with this anymore. I am trying to keep myself busy but all I wanna do is cry and it drives me mad. Sorry, for getting too personal here.. However, I wanted to say a huge thank you Estée for staying positive, for spreading love and positivity among us, your audience. I am thankful for the whole RUclips community right now, cause you guys keep this world from falling apart. Will be looking forward to your videos! x
Estee, I hope you're well and taking care of your mental and emotional health! I can't help but worry for those of you who live alone during this time. I live with my boyfriend, and while he is driving me a bit crazy at times since we have no escape from each other in our tiny apartment, I am grateful to have him here and can't imagine what going through this alone would be like. I hope you have people you can reach out to every day, even if only for a few minutes. Take care girl!
Hubby and I are snowbirds from your home town (Waterloo) and currently wintering in our motorhome in Nanaimo, B.C. in a beautiful RV park in the forest along the water. I admire you social distancing at home all by yourself, so nice to have Effie. We are happy to have each other to bounce the news off of daily and our lovely handicapped dog, Kelly to take care of. What strange strange times. Stay safe and positive and I'm sure we will all get through this. 💝
Your at home vlogs are going to keep me going through this! Please continue to post, I don't care if you're not doing anything particularly exciting, it's just so lovely to follow your day x
I’m naturally a very anxious person, this pandemic is not helping lol, I know we are all in this together though. I’ve had a lot of time to sit down with my thoughts, and with my dad being a heart and lung patient, currently in the hospital, I’m telling myself, think more about this as not just helping yourself, but helping very vulnerable people like your dad, that maybe not always staying in but going for walks away from people and a large sum of people, is also helping you, and still helping others at the same time. This is unlike something we’ve ever seen before, I never thought, our parents never thought we’d have to practise something like “social distancing” because as humans, we naturally need interaction, and it is very scary, but we must remember, we are coming out of this, right now it’s just one day at a time. Thank you Estée, and every RUclipsr on here, whatever your interests may include, for keeping us happy and giving us a sense of normalcy! ❤️
I havent watched many youtube videos over the past several months (really no reason other than doing other things) and this is the first one Ive watched since being self isolated indoors. As much as this might be a weird video for you to make, Estee, Im getting a lot of comfort in knowing other people are tirelessly bored with the same, mundane tasks at home as me. Going on a walk, yoga with adriene, finding books in boxes on the street...Its routine now! Keep pushing out content. Been a fan since the early days, and still a fan today
Omg so happy to see this.... love watching day in a life videos. So nice you have sweet Effie to keep you company. She’s such a cutie Don’t you think when it’s mandatory to stay home then you don’t want to! Your apartment looks so nice. Love all the plants Stay well ❤️🙏🏼
I was just sent home from my study abroad in Geneva back to Melbourne, it was a super stressful time and not knowing what is going on at home and whether I would be able to get a flight back to let back into Australia but watching your current and re-watching your old videos was a calming escape for me so please please please keep going with your chill content
I just feel like a big blob. I have been taking two brisk walks a day, but just being cooped up is starting to grate on me. I can work from home a little, but most of my work is done at the elementary school I work at, so I feel kind of useless. And I am sick of my cooking, and I am sure my family is too! We are not doing even take out right now, as we are just concerned about the safety of it. We are under a shelter in place/lockdown order in the Bay Area California. I am just happy for any content at all at this point! A mixed bag of talking about it, and talking about other things is great.
Imo social media such as yt and ig has been great during isolation, it kinda keeps me from going insane so I very much appreciate content creators who are still releasing new stuff right now ❤️
I definitely appreciate these normal videos, being inside for the I can't remember which day (France here). I'm a language teacher so I work from home and it's been an interesting experience to stay in touch with the kids. They are being amazing and asking questions and sending work in :)
i struggled so much with loneliness before all this happened, to see this problem kind of mirrored back to me on a worldwide scale is so strange and also comforting in a sense because now i really am not alone in this anymore. (of course i realise that this is a very privileged standpoint and not everyones primary problem is loneliness!! basically my whole family is in the risk group and my mother is a nurse. i'm worried for all of the people who's health is at risk!)
Pleas keep on making videos, I have been a silent subscriber for years of yours. I enjoy your content, watching you transform and grow is nice and we enjoy you XX.
I think it's important for content creators to address what's going on, but their content doesn't need to be about it unless they really want to. Everyone is handling it differently, ya know. Some people wanna know more than others and want the details, but others want to escape. I think in times like these it's important to acknowledge the state of the world, but keep doing the wonderful stuff you've been doing for the past few years 😊 You're doing great, Estee!
Hello from Newfoundland, Canada. Don’t stress about filming things super interesting! This was just perfect. Just to see someone else’s day and your beautiful puppy ❤️ hoping Netflix releases some new series/movies... for our sanity’s sake! I am re reading your book though 😘
Nooo!! I am looking for an escape. I truly appreciate that you are all continuing to make content that we love, that we follow, and that we are looking to help us escape from all of the news on TV and the web. So thank you carrying on and keep posting those videos.
Im from Poland and currently we are on day 9 of our quarantine. I’m very much a of a homebody but this corona life is a whole new thing for me. I cant seem to focus on my usual work, i feel like i could just constantly sleep and i really just miss the normal, usual life. Hope this goes away soon. Take care of yourself guys!
It is Saturday today and it is day 6 of home quaratine here in Manila, Philippines. I am on WFH with my husband in a condo. It’s nice to see my fave youtubers going thru the same process.. it gives the feeling that we are not alone and that we are in this healing period together ❤️ stay safe and healthy, Estee! 💪🏼😍❤️
It’s not insensitive at all. I went to Wholefood’s this morning here in nyc for food that I actually need. People were shoving their way into the line (to the front of it even tho they belonged in the end of the line), I stood up for myself as I was in line for one hour...and got called a bitch. So yea watching this is really helping with this coronavirus situation
Estée Lalonde I’m currently reading The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle which is like a psychological thriller meets Agatha Christie which I’m loving. I also read these recently: Idiot Wind which is a memoir about someone who hitchhiked across the US, The Year Of Living Danishly, Melmoth (horror) & The Hate U Give
Thanks for the content Estee, RUclips has never felt like such a welcome connection to outside world, I feel much less alone. I've only been at home since tuesday and I'm a person who loves being at home, but under these conditions it feels very different and obv isolating. Grateful for the internet, social media and pets
Honestly anything you make would be greatly appreciated. Side note: I think you may like Esther and Abraham Hicks. It’s a law of attraction concept. Take a look into it,if you’re interested. Wishing you well being and abundance from Houston Tx
Recommendations: Thomas Crowne Affair and Fleabag on Amazon Prime, Parks and Rec and Somebody Feed Phil on Netflix, Superstore and Last Man on Earth on Hulu
Thank you for the vlog, Estee! I live in Toronto and the number of confirmed people with virus is just getting bigger recently. My husband is not going to work as he is a chef and the restaurant he is working for has been shutting down temporarily but I have to go work by this week. It is pretty scary whenever I’m outside and at work, but trying to stay positive and make sure clean&sanitize everything I touch lol yeah I hope you stay safe in London and your family in Canada🇨🇦 as well! We will get through this💪🏻
If you’re into French dramas (or not just give them a go) then I recommend The Forest and The Black Spot on Netflix. Both a bit supernatural but mostly just gripping on the edge of your seat stuff
thank u Estee! I love all ur content but especially these kind of videos as I find them to be most inspiring and reöatable- - I love ur sense of humour- stay healthy- best wishes xoxo
Thank you for continuing to upload 💕 I was able to watch this whilst doing my morning skincare routine and it was such a nice break from watching the news! Chill homely content is literally gonna save my mental health 😭 but hope you’re looking after yours too. These are weird times x
Working overtime as a nurse. Completely exhausted...mentally and physically. Would normally go for an acupuncture to deal with my aches and pains but the clinic has been shut down due to the current situation. I hope this resolves soon. Stay safe everyone. Take care of your elderly parents/ grandparents. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Please keep vlogging. I watch youtube videos as an escape from whats currently going on. Watching vlogs really helps my anxiety and calms me down. Love you 💕
Netflix recommendations: Love is Blind (of course!), Always a Witch (just starting season two), and Cheer iTunes (or elsewhere, wherever you can find them) two movies recommended to me but I haven't seen yet: Sweetheart, and Paranoid I would also recommend Killing Eve and Fleabag (both of which I've seen and loved, especially Killing Eve) I feel exhausted everyday because of low-level anxiety about the unknown. While I am grateful and feel that I am among those privileged enough to be able to work from home, I do worry that if this goes on too long, there may be some serious repercussions in terms of our economy and the many people who will have lost their jobs and/or whose industries are in complete shambles by the time they are able to get back to work. It's the uncertainty of everything that uses up a lot of space in my brain and hence causes me to feel absolutely knackered at the end of the day. That said, when I go to sleep, I seem to be having the most amazing uninterrupted sleep cycle given how exhausted I am at the time I hit the bed.
Thank you for this Estee! I live in Houston, Texas So far we are not on a mandatory lock down but most places besides grocery stores, pharmacies, and restaurants for take out only are closed. Mostly every other non service job is work from home. I am mostly staying home, I work as a barista for a local coffee shop and they have not given me hours because they are centered downtown and its practically a ghost town. I just ventured to pick up my check yesterday, which might be my last check for at least a month. Everyone stay strong y'all! Keep safe, stay home and keep each other safe
Hello dear! Thank you so much for your good vibes in these strange times. I will love to see a what I eat in the day at home. Lots of love from Colombia
Estee, you could do online collaboration with Susan Yara. She could review your skin care routine. That would be fun! (Susan mentioned your Daisy collection in her favourites). Thank you!
I love your vlogs, they’re a really good distraction for everything going on in the world. I ordered some daisy pieces yesterday and I’m so excited to finally get some of your jewelry!!
Please make distraction videos- Im asthmatic and was sent home from work to wait this out. Im currently unable to do my job from home though hopefully they'll be able to arrange this sooner rather than later. But Im sick of hearing about Corona ESPECIALLY when I can't work from home. So grateful for my doggo at this time!
Hi Esteé! I love these at home chill vlogs. Loved them when pre-covid and now during covid they are a much needed palate cleanser especially after watching the news.
I’m actually really enjoying my time away from stuff. Yes I’m watching a lot of RUclips buttt that’s business as usual lol...I love that I don’t need to feel/be productive and can just have some lazy time. Yes I understand that’s massively privileged.. but if I can be chill about the current situation and everyday find a thing I love about being home maybe it’ll help🤍🤍🤍🤍 just my experience with it all
Hello! I work for Niagara college in welland and am currently working from home with two toddlers. Not easy but I’m trying to stay positive and enjoy the extra time with them. Ps. After uni, I lived in south east London for 3 years (my 4 year old was born there), so I live vicariously through you when I’m missing London. Stay safe and healthy!
We totally need the distraction! I love watching your videos, I totally need youtube to cheer me up right now. We can't hang out with friends so watching your videos makes us feel like we can hang out with a friend.
Anyone else relying on RUclips as a distraction during this whole social isolation period? Thank goodness for our fav youtubers like estee keeping us entertained! ❤️❤️ stay safe everyone!
I'm watching more RUclips than I have ever watched!
Yes! It’s a great distraction 👍🏻
I'm watching more youtube but finding it's not really a distraction as all vlogs are talking about corona. Obviousley completely understand why as it's affecting everyones lives so much, but currently prefer TV shows >youtube for distraction! But it is nice to see that we're all in this together, and not seeing other people have loads of fun
Yes, majorly depending on RUclips for some normalcy! There’s a comfort about it. We will pull through this together!
During quarantine time, watching youtube and netflix is the best to distract! Don’t forget to do a home training at home! Stay healthy 🔥
I always prefer simple at home vlogs centered around people's normal lives over the vlogs about traveling and fancy events and all that extra stuff.
I'm on day 8 of the coronavirus and I feel much better, my fever has gone down. It's been tough being isolated and I'm grateful for some video content to make me think about other stuff :) ! I'd love to have some book content, or recent favorites (book series etc )
So glad you are getting over it ...
😘🙏😍💜 xx
Hope you'll be healthy again soon!
glad you're feeling better!!
Omg how sad you got the virus..were you tested and what are the symptoms ...
Daphné so consoling reading someone has it and is conquering it !! Of course we hear worst case scenarios often but it’s nice to read about a case that’s being beaten ! Good luck !!
It is 10 days I am locked up in my apartment ( Tuscany - Italy ), working from home, going out just for grocery and by the end of the day I am always quite exhausted and my mental health is not so "easy breezy" at the moment .... anyway thanks a lot for your videos, always so soothing and reassuring. Btw I am having the same exact brand of tea ☕️. Cheers to all of us!
Cheers Daniel from Merseyside U.K 👍🌏🙏🌅
Italy has had the worst.
We are all thinking and hoping for a return to health for all of you there.
I'm on day 7 and only go out around the block to walk my dog and every other day to the corner shop and I am incredibly exhausted. Much more so than if I were to go to work, the gym, and out with friends. Being isolated is so taxing on the body and mind!
Big love from Ireland 🇮🇪
Daniel_81 un uomo italiano che segue Estée? Sono piacevolmente sconvolta! Spero tu stia bene! 😊

Effie is so sweet and I can see that she is loving your being at home.
Thanks for the video Estee. Seeing Effie playing in that daffodil patch put a smile on my face!
Here are some videos I'd love to see from you:
-Plant tour
-Favourite books
-Walks with Effie or a day in the life of Effie
-More stay at home vlogs
Take care!
💗
YES to the plant tour
Hi Estée, thanks for keeping making content! :)
It's day 4 of quarantine here in France, and it's really weird and scary. Still, I've chosen to feel grateful. I'm super lucky that during the next 2 weeks I get to stay home and still being paid. So I'm not going to complain, not even once.

And yes, it's gonna be hard and boring, but at least, we're not at work risking to be infected by this virus.
Stay safe Estée :)
it's a hard situation, and thank goodness we have internet and social media so we can conect to each other
It's helping me too :)
I'm so grateful for this Estee. I'm stuck inside in Australia and your content is very soothing right now. Thank you.
Hello Estée, just wanted to say thank you for this distraction. The doctor just told us this morning that we can assume that our 4 year old who’s been sick the past three days has the (he who must not be named) virus.

I’m sorry your four year old is unwell and you’re going through that. I hope they feel better soon!
I actually really love these basic, simple videos and I really appreciate that you’re keeping it real. ♥️
I appreciate everyone who is posting videos. It really is an escape and in a weird way, it makes me feel better about the future! I have been trying to stay busy and luckily I worked from home already, so it wasn't that much of a change. When I have downtime, I have been doing more deep cleaning in my home that I have wanted to do. I think trying to stay away from the news as much as possible is helpful.

Your stay at home vlogs are literally my favorite kind of vlogs! also a nice break from negative news
Really glad you like watching them! :)
My office has moved to working from home for about a week now. Very thankful we have this option as it’s scary to see so many people losing their jobs right now.
I’ve always admired how you seem to always get dressed for the day even though you’re working for home. So I’m doing the same to try to create some positive routines as well as taking a walk around the neighborhood each day. Be safe everyone!
Would love videos about relaxing routines at home, working from home tips, etc. ❤️❤️
Your vlogs always calm me down, especially the ones where you're just at home chilling, so I definitely wouldn't mind more casual home vlogs ❤️ Cuddling with Effie, showing us your favorite makeup products (I especially find eyeshadow swatching really calming?), eating food, random rambles, all of that goodness!

BLESS YOU ESTEE FOR ALWAYS KEEPING IT REAL
Honestly, it's been so nice to see what people are getting up to in their own homes! I'm already starting to feel a little stir crazy, but watching RUclips videos like this has really helped! Thank you so much Estée

Home videos yay!!! You should do a updated home tour! That would be lovely! Stay safe! 😍

I’ve had a lot of time to sit down with my thoughts, and with my dad being a heart and lung patient, currently in the hospital, I’m telling myself, think more about this as not just helping yourself, but helping very vulnerable people like your dad, that maybe not always staying in but going for walks away from people and a large sum of people, is also helping you, and still helping others at the same time. This is unlike something we’ve ever seen before, I never thought, our parents never thought we’d have to practise something like “social distancing” because as humans, we naturally need interaction, and it is very scary, but we must remember, we are coming out of this, right now it’s just one day at a time. Thank you Estée, and every RUclipsr on here, whatever your interests may include, for keeping us happy and giving us a sense of normalcy! ❤️
Thank you for staying in! I am using RUclips as a distraction from my four walls, so this helps! 💕
I havent watched many youtube videos over the past several months (really no reason other than doing other things) and this is the first one Ive watched since being self isolated indoors. As much as this might be a weird video for you to make, Estee, Im getting a lot of comfort in knowing other people are tirelessly bored with the same, mundane tasks at home as me. Going on a walk, yoga with adriene, finding books in boxes on the street...Its routine now! Keep pushing out content. Been a fan since the early days, and still a fan today
❤️❤️
Omg so happy to see this.... love watching day in a life videos. So nice you have sweet Effie to keep you company. She’s such a cutie
Don’t you think when it’s mandatory to stay home then you don’t want to! Your apartment looks so nice. Love all the plants Stay well ❤️🙏🏼
I was just sent home from my study abroad in Geneva back to Melbourne, it was a super stressful time and not knowing what is going on at home and whether I would be able to get a flight back to let back into Australia but watching your current and re-watching your old videos was a calming escape for me so please please please keep going with your chill content
I just feel like a big blob. I have been taking two brisk walks a day, but just being cooped up is starting to grate on me. I can work from home a little, but most of my work is done at the elementary school I work at, so I feel kind of useless. And I am sick of my cooking, and I am sure my family is too! We are not doing even take out right now, as we are just concerned about the safety of it. We are under a shelter in place/lockdown order in the Bay Area California. I am just happy for any content at all at this point! A mixed bag of talking about it, and talking about other things is great.
Thank you for making videos Estée ! We need them
Imo social media such as yt and ig has been great during isolation, it kinda keeps me from going insane so I very much appreciate content creators who are still releasing new stuff right now ❤️
This video is just what we need! Thank you for uploading! :) And stay safe and healthy, physically as well as mentally! ❤️
I definitely appreciate these normal videos, being inside for the I can't remember which day (France here). I'm a language teacher so I work from home and it's been an interesting experience to stay in touch with the kids. They are being amazing and asking questions and sending work in :)
Can you please do a "favourite books" video or like self care books recommendations? 🌹
I have a book section on my website!
thank you , I did not know that . Just Love when you talk about books in your videos! Take care x 😁
i struggled so much with loneliness before all this happened, to see this problem kind of mirrored back to me on a worldwide scale is so strange and also comforting in a sense because now i really am not alone in this anymore. (of course i realise that this is a very privileged standpoint and not everyones primary problem is loneliness!! basically my whole family is in the risk group and my mother is a nurse. i'm worried for all of the people who's health is at risk!)
I understand your point ^
Please make videos like this! We’re all in this together and I love seeing what others are doing to stay sane.
Pleas keep on making videos, I have been a silent subscriber for years of yours. I enjoy your content, watching you transform and grow is nice and we enjoy you XX.
"I'm at home and so are my nips". The most legendary quote I have ever heard.
❤️😂
I'm glad you're staying safe :) This kind of vlog is really "essiebutton" like I feel, and I've missed it! Thank you for the content :))
Every kind of content is well appreciated!
I loved this video, home self care kind of vlogs are my fave. Please keep em coming. Xx
I think it's important for content creators to address what's going on, but their content doesn't need to be about it unless they really want to. Everyone is handling it differently, ya know. Some people wanna know more than others and want the details, but others want to escape. I think in times like these it's important to acknowledge the state of the world, but keep doing the wonderful stuff you've been doing for the past few years 😊 You're doing great, Estee!
PLEASE KEEP GIVING US AN ESCAPE - can't handle any more corona content
Hello from Newfoundland, Canada. Don’t stress about filming things super interesting! This was just perfect. Just to see someone else’s day and your beautiful puppy ❤️ hoping Netflix releases some new series/movies... for our sanity’s sake! I am re reading your book though 😘
Noted!
I'm working from home, stressing, worrying....i clicked on your video for an escape and a relaxing moment. Keep on doing what you do. :)
Nooo!! I am looking for an escape. I truly appreciate that you are all continuing to make content that we love, that we follow, and that we are looking to help us escape from all of the news on TV and the web. So thank you carrying on and keep posting those videos.
Im from Poland and currently we are on day 9 of our quarantine. I’m very much a of a homebody but this corona life is a whole new thing for me. I cant seem to focus on my usual work, i feel like i could just constantly sleep and i really just miss the normal, usual life. Hope this goes away soon. Take care of yourself guys!
Thank you for posting Estee. Stay safe! 💕💕
It is Saturday today and it is day 6 of home quaratine here in Manila, Philippines. I am on WFH with my husband in a condo. It’s nice to see my fave youtubers going thru the same process.. it gives the feeling that we are not alone and that we are in this healing period together ❤️ stay safe and healthy, Estee! 💪🏼😍❤️
Hang in there! Thanks for checking in. Good here just trying to chill.
One hundred percent carry on... it’s not insensitive as long as you’re aware and acknowledge that everything isn’t business as usual (which you have).
It’s not insensitive at all. I went to Wholefood’s this morning here in nyc for food that I actually need. People were shoving their way into the line (to the front of it even tho they belonged in the end of the line), I stood up for myself as I was in line for one hour...and got called a bitch. So yea watching this is really helping with this coronavirus situation
People's true colors really coming out in this day and age.
Stay safe! 😊
honestly loving the stress zit exposé!
RUclips (and books) have been my escape recently and it's lovely to have some slight normality on here x
Any book recommendations?
Estée Lalonde I’m currently reading The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle which is like a psychological thriller meets Agatha Christie which I’m loving. I also read these recently: Idiot Wind which is a memoir about someone who hitchhiked across the US, The Year Of Living Danishly, Melmoth (horror) & The Hate U Give
Thanks for the content Estee, RUclips has never felt like such a welcome connection to outside world, I feel much less alone. I've only been at home since tuesday and I'm a person who loves being at home, but under these conditions it feels very different and obv isolating. Grateful for the internet, social media and pets
What an amazing vlog🥰 it really helped me to escape my anxiety for a moment ✨
Honestly anything you make would be greatly appreciated.
Side note: I think you may like Esther and Abraham Hicks. It’s a law of attraction concept. Take a look into it,if you’re interested.
Wishing you well being and abundance from Houston Tx
Recommendations: Thomas Crowne Affair and Fleabag on Amazon Prime, Parks and Rec and Somebody Feed Phil on Netflix, Superstore and Last Man on Earth on Hulu
Treat Yo Self
Yes! Watch Superstore and remember what it was like to go shopping!
Please keep making videos. RUclips is one of my only escapes right now ❤️
Thank you for the vlog, Estee! I live in Toronto and the number of confirmed people with virus is just getting bigger recently. My husband is not going to work as he is a chef and the restaurant he is working for has been shutting down temporarily but I have to go work by this week. It is pretty scary whenever I’m outside and at work, but trying to stay positive and make sure clean&sanitize everything I touch lol yeah I hope you stay safe in London and your family in Canada🇨🇦 as well! We will get through this💪🏻
If you’re into French dramas (or not just give them a go) then I recommend The Forest and The Black Spot on Netflix. Both a bit supernatural but mostly just gripping on the edge of your seat stuff
thank u Estee! I love all ur content but especially these kind of videos as I find them to be most inspiring and reöatable- - I love ur sense of humour-
stay healthy- best wishes xoxo
Thanks for this. keep em comin! I’m basically just going out to the grocery store.. that’s it!
I lost my doggo a couple of days ago so your content is a welcome distraction. Stay safe and healthy ♥️
Thank you for continuing to upload 💕 I was able to watch this whilst doing my morning skincare routine and it was such a nice break from watching the news! Chill homely content is literally gonna save my mental health 😭 but hope you’re looking after yours too. These are weird times x
OMG LOVE YOU ESTEEEEEEE..... I will keep drinking tea with you and enjoy your vids xoxo
I'm so happy to hear that. Tea for life!
I am literally having Yorkshire gold with oatly as I’m watching this now 😂😘
@ yasssssss girl.... boil that kettle
Working overtime as a nurse. Completely exhausted...mentally and physically. Would normally go for an acupuncture to deal with my aches and pains but the clinic has been shut down due to the current situation. I hope this resolves soon. Stay safe everyone. Take care of your elderly parents/ grandparents. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
tsering choezom Thank you for the courageous work you do🌷
Please keep vlogging. I watch youtube videos as an escape from whats currently going on. Watching vlogs really helps my anxiety and calms me down. Love you 💕
Netflix recommendations: Love is Blind (of course!), Always a Witch (just starting season two), and Cheer
iTunes (or elsewhere, wherever you can find them) two movies recommended to me but I haven't seen yet: Sweetheart, and Paranoid
I would also recommend Killing Eve and Fleabag (both of which I've seen and loved, especially Killing Eve)
I feel exhausted everyday because of low-level anxiety about the unknown. While I am grateful and feel that I am among those privileged enough to be able to work from home, I do worry that if this goes on too long, there may be some serious repercussions in terms of our economy and the many people who will have lost their jobs and/or whose industries are in complete shambles by the time they are able to get back to work. It's the uncertainty of everything that uses up a lot of space in my brain and hence causes me to feel absolutely knackered at the end of the day. That said, when I go to sleep, I seem to be having the most amazing uninterrupted sleep cycle given how exhausted I am at the time I hit the bed.
I love Amelia Freer!!! That book is awesome. Thanks for this vlog!
Thank you for this Estee! I live in Houston, Texas So far we are not on a mandatory lock down but most places besides grocery stores, pharmacies, and restaurants for take out only are closed. Mostly every other non service job is work from home. I am mostly staying home, I work as a barista for a local coffee shop and they have not given me hours because they are centered downtown and its practically a ghost town. I just ventured to pick up my check yesterday, which might be my last check for at least a month. Everyone stay strong y'all! Keep safe, stay home and keep each other safe
Thank you Estee! Please keep the videos coming!!
Hello dear! Thank you so much for your good vibes in these strange times. I will love to see a what I eat in the day at home. Lots of love from Colombia
i'm waiting for the apartment tour :)
Sending love and light to everyone!
I would love a grwm or recent makeup faves etc and book recs please!
Estee, you could do online collaboration with Susan Yara. She could review your skin care routine. That would be fun! (Susan mentioned your Daisy collection in her favourites). Thank you!
I love how you set your greenery
I love your vlogs, they’re a really good distraction for everything going on in the world. I ordered some daisy pieces yesterday and I’m so excited to finally get some of your jewelry!!
Ozark Season 3 is dropping on the 27th! I’ll be rewatching Seasons 1 & 2 between now and then.
YASSS
I could literally watch an endless amount of videos of you doing your skincare routine. 😂😅👋🏻❤️ IT'S SO SOOTHING.
Please make distraction videos- Im asthmatic and was sent home from work to wait this out. Im currently unable to do my job from home though hopefully they'll be able to arrange this sooner rather than later. But Im sick of hearing about Corona ESPECIALLY when I can't work from home.
So grateful for my doggo at this time!
doggos
Hi Esteé! I love these at home chill vlogs. Loved them when pre-covid and now during covid they are a much needed palate cleanser especially after watching the news.
I’m actually really enjoying my time away from stuff. Yes I’m watching a lot of RUclips buttt that’s business as usual lol...I love that I don’t need to feel/be productive and can just have some lazy time. Yes I understand that’s massively privileged.. but if I can be chill about the current situation and everyday find a thing I love about being home maybe it’ll help🤍🤍🤍🤍 just my experience with it all
Wonderlust! It's a great series. It's short but good. Hope you and Effie keep doing well 😊
I always love when you're trying to do some cooking/baking.
I will try to do some cooking!
Hello! I work for Niagara college in welland and am currently working from home with two toddlers. Not easy but I’m trying to stay positive and enjoy the extra time with them. Ps. After uni, I lived in south east London for 3 years (my 4 year old was born there), so I live vicariously through you when I’m missing London. Stay safe and healthy!
Hi Estee, thank you for continuing to create content during this difficult time in the world. Stay well and safe sending you ❤️from the United States.
Shout Out 👍💚to the person that left the books for someone else to use😍
Wow... this is a great idea ✌❣
Covid times are the only time I wouldn't take something like that!
Pippa D How about reading the books then setting them out for someone else to do the same.
We need your videos!I am at home and I love your videos este! Love from greece! Take care!
We totally need the distraction! I love watching your videos, I totally need youtube to cheer me up right now. We can't hang out with friends so watching your videos makes us feel like we can hang out with a friend.
