What was really bad in 2020 was 2020 lol
Zabrena, I know you love nude lipsticks but WOW the color you are wearing today is your color. Your whole makeup look today is just gorgeous and enhances your natural beauty so well.
Agree she is stunning today(well, every day of course) - hair and makeup are not just on point they are show stopping today.
She’s the only person that I’ve seen actually show us why she’s rated the “worst” products as such in these type of videos!! Thank you for all your hard work Zabrena!!! I love your videos and always watch when you post.
I appreciate your kind words and support!! Hugs!
I just want to say that it makes me so happy to see a beauty RUclipsr whose content seems so positive and wholesome and can critique things without being overly negative. I love your videos!
Zabrena, I just wanted to say thank you for all these videos during the holidays, they really brighten my spirits!💕
yay!! thank you for being here! hugs! ❤️
Can’t wait to kick out 2020 outside my door and slam it.. Thank you Zabrena amazing effort xx.
Milli G: AMEN!!! I was a post the other day that read: "The year 2020 has been brought to you by the letters W-T-F"! 😅
Believe it or not, the best cream blushes I've ever used are from Believe (Dollar General brand) and they're about $3!! They knocked my Fenty cream blushes completely out of the game!
Ooh, thanks, I'll have to check them out!!
Believe foundation is great, too. Love the cream blush also.
Thank you. I need to try that brand:
Yes, sometimes the price really doesn’t matter. Some of the cheapest products are sometimes really really great.
They have a peachy color corrector that I was hoping would be as good as the Benefit....it is so much better!!! $4 too!!! I've loved every Believe Beauty product I've tried!!!
The wet n wild breakup proof liquid liner is actual wonderful, but the pencil version was awful. Not sure why they even bothered releasing the pencil! I've used up and repurchased the liquid liner 3 times now and actually bought backups just in case they cancel it. For only $4 it's almost bulletproof on me! ♡
I have the pencil liner and on my waterline it stays black all day. I love mine.
@@trishcraft omg duhhh.....I literally never even thought to try it out on my waterline! Dangit, now I kinda want to buy it again just to try that out. Thanks for the tip!
I love the liquid Wet n Wild eyeliner&I went back to the store to buy 3 more!
@@trishcraft I have the same result too! Never budges on my "watery" waterline!
You have the prettiest hair color, seriously stunning. Your makeup in this video is also very beautiful.
I was literally going to say this!!!!
She is a beautiful lady with a beautiful spirit! (And you look like a lovely lady, yourself!) 😊
I loved the Maybelline Nudes of NY palette way more then their previous offerings but then again, I have really dry eyelids so it didn't crease on me or anything. 🥰 I agree with a lot of the other products you mentioned though!
Jen!!! I was just saying this to Zabrena in someone’s comment. I also mentioned to her that I’d love to see a collab happen between the two of you in the new year. How ‘bout it? My two favorite makeup gurus!!!
Awesome, Jen! ❤️ Thanks for sharing! so nice to see you!
Ditto! Love the mustardy tan color surprisingly! I really like that palette, dry skin here too.
I had to laugh at your disgust at the Covergirl Foundation. I’ve walked past it a million times like ohh I’ll.. oh wait I remember Zabrena hated this stuff. It’s a no. 😂😂. Your recommendations are usually spot on for me
I’m 66 and I love it!! Doesn’t settle into my fine lines wrinkles, or pores. I don’t use a primer and just put it on with my fingers. I have never gotten so many compliments!
If you have dry skin, drier than the desert that skin milk is everything! I also like to mix it with my thicker foundations to make it more absorbable for my skin type. LOVe your videos girl! Been watching for a while 💙
Dry skin here too and the Skin milk has been everything for my skin! Actually, for me the longer it’s on and the more it sinks into my skin the better it looks. I especially love their powder from that line. Typically, I hate covergirl though. It does something for dry or sensitive skin that’s really great foundation wise.
I love it!
I also really like it for my dry skin!
Can you believe that maybelline eyeshadow won the allure best of beauty award 🤯 this is why I trust you. And yes! Magnetic lashes were a complete fail for me too.
Agree with you 100% on the disappointment of the KISS magnetic lashes! Thanks for another great video!
I tried essence lash princess because so many people raved but it was awful for me. Maybe its having hooded lids but it smudged like crazy. Same for lash paradise. Everyone raves but I thought it dried up and started clumping after the first month
I have similar issues. The other thing that prevents smudging for me is using a clear brow mascara on top of mascara but even that is hit and miss. What mascaras work for you?
Yes girl the lash paradise is horrible stuff on me too! Don't get the hype!
I don't have hooded eyes, and it was also horrible on me): I really wanted to love it but I found the formula too wet and it just made my lashes kinda stick together/: I tried their Extreme mascara in the pink tube and I love it! Since they're so cheap it gives room to play around and maybe find one of their many mascaras that will work for you!
Hate all essence mascaras that I’ve tried. Didn’t see the big whoop.
I have hooded oily eyelids, Lash paradise smudged under my eyes terrible, Lash Princess tho i love, i recently bought the waterproof version too. I think using the essence eyeshadow primer helped to stop my oils smudging it. So it can be our prep that causes smudging sometimes.
That Maybelline New York palette!!! Everyone raves about it, and I had the same experience you did! So happy to know it wasn’t just me!
I’m glad I haven’t caved into buying it, LOL!
I bought it and like it, but then again I just smash it on my face and hope for the best!
The new Milani Cheek Kiss cream blushes (the flat ones, not the ones in the tubes), and the ELF Putty Blushes, are both really fantastic drugstore cream blushes. The Milani ones are a bit more dewy than the ELF ones. The ELF blushes are almost like a cream-to-powder formula.
I don't think I've seen any other RUclipsr be so kind and respectful while doing a "Worst of....." video. Instead of bashing the product, you merely explain why it didn't work for you. Love your content Z! Merry Christmas; stay safe and healthy.
I've been admiring your turquoise ornaments.
Zabrena, thank you so very much for your well-researched, thoughtful, humorous, and realistic reviews. You’re fabulous and oh so real and relatable. You’re a JOY!
I totally agree on quite a few of these! Had to toss the Covergirl Clean Fresh Skin Milk, Maybelline Cheek Heat Cream Blush, and several Almay eyeshadow quads.
I have never found a Pacifica product that I've liked. I want to SO MUCH because of what the brand represents, but omg.. the shadows, the lippies.. it's all dreadful quality in my experience.
Thanks for your amazing reviews, Zabrena! 💕
Thank you SO much for tellin’ it like it is, for trying all of these products and brands and reporting that back to us. This is invaluable, money-saving information. I learn a lot from you with every new video. And thanks for so many new videos this holiday season. I appreciate that.
It’s so funny how things work differently for different people. The Nudes of NY palette is the only eyeshadows I have liked from
Maybelline in years. Can’t wait for the drugstore favs! I always enjoy Drugstore December and your channel as a whole. I see lots of products on your channel that I haven’t seen often.
I don’t know if it was just my area, but I felt like a substantial percentage of the drugstore makeup I bought this year was already expired, or somewhat “off.” I can see why drugstores had something better to do than pull old lipsticks and put new ones in, but it was still a waste of money.
Great reviews! Glad I found this channel
This makeup and hair is my favorite style on you. You just look stunning!
Awww, hubby bringing you an all natural energy drink, how adorable!!!👍
The nyx concealer I was so excited about but such a major fail.
Absolutely love your videos Zabrena! I so appreciate how you do looks with the drug store brands! It definitely gives me hope and helps me when choosing my products. Not all of us can afford the high end products, so thank you so very much! I hope you have a very Merry Christmas!
So many influencers are hyping up the Nudes of New York so I'm glad someone with oily skin actually did a wear test warned us about it. The amount of effort you put in makes you a true professional rather than just another bubbly pretty girl influencing us to buy and buy and buy.
Ugh! Zabrena is so dang gorgeous. 😍 Loved that moment you showed us of your hubby bringing that to you 😁
Thank you for all the wonderful videos you do!
I love you videos! You and Emily noel are my all time favourites!
Thank you for the video, Zabrena - I always look forward to seeing you here. As far as the lip plumper goes, maybe you should try Nabla's new one, you might be surprised.
Merry Christmas to you and yours. Much Love from Italy. ❤️
Girl - your fans would love a longer video to wrap up the year! Go for it. Merry Christmas and all the best to your family in 2020 and beyond!
It’s been wonderful to see all your December videos , wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year
I love your whole look today!!!
Eeeek omg how did I miss this video!!! Love ya!
"That was....WOW."
My 2020 mood, honestly xD
Nooooo, the Kiss magnetic lashes are some of my favorite!! There is a learning curve, you have to shake it and apply 3-4 coats to get it to stay on, but I've loved mine. 😁 Isn't it crazy how different things work so differently for people?
I love them too! It sounds like she just had bad luck. I noticed that I have to put on a thicker line of eye liner than normal but I have better luck with these than the glue on kind.
I just LOVE your natural hair! So beautiful!
Excited to see if any of these match my list! Merry Christmas to you and your family!!
The Maybelline Nudes pallet is the absolute bomb!! So beautiful. I did not like the cover girl foundation.
Hopefully your energy levels soar with the coming year. Thanks for saving our bucks ma'am and being aa sweet as possible.😀
Love your hair like that!
As soon as I saw the title I immediately thought I think I probably have all of them!🤣
Zabrena, you are such a great person and I really appreciate my fellow oily gal. Thanks for all your hard work and Merry Christmas! 🎄🥰
Thank you, Zabrina. Your hair looks fabulous today. BTW, a couple of those products you mentioned as failures were rated highly by a few other Style Influencers. The KISS magnetic eye lash kit and the Maybelline Cheek Heat liquid blush are the two products others have mentioned. Thank God, I watched this video because I nearly bought the Cheek Heat today at CVS.
Love the vid. Thanks for sharing and blessings to you. Merry Christmas to your family.
I received 2 popular pallets in March as a gift. I have not stopped using the james charles pallet since. I have tried picking up others but always go back to JC. Its just perfect. All the colors, pigment, wear time, blending. I cant stop using it- its not just a favorite -its a staple now. BTW-todays look on you is GORGEOUS - you look amazing!
I tried the kiss magnetic lashes. I found them so much easier to apply than normal lashes but the magnet also came off on mine too. I’ve just ordered some from Ardell to try.
Great video. Thanks for including a list. Beats having to replay a video multiple times to get product names.
I wish we’d seen the wear test videos that showed the breakdown of these products. That would’ve been interesting.
Merry Christmas to you and your beautiful family! Sending love from the great white North. 🇨🇦❤🇺🇲
Zabrena, just found your channel. Used to watch Tati 😭 so quit thinking about makeup (getting old, lol) Just wanted to say you are a lovely breath of fresh air! Really happy to sub🤗
Do you have a video on the makeup you’re wearing today? It and your hair are lovely!
Hi Zabrena! I love December videos everyday!! Every TARTE mascara I have tried this year has been horrible! I will be sticking with L'Oreal Lash Paradise!
I just got Maneater. I like that one. And I am horrible at applying mascara. I like Loreal Voluminous- except for the carbon black. It seems really different from the others . Hope you all have a happy, safe holiday!⛄🎄
Merry Christmas 🎄Your hair is soooooo gorgeous in today’s video.
Oh yeah...Almay's eyeshadow quad....lol same experience. 🤣
On the plumping lip gloss not working, I have some colourpop ones in squeezy tubes and they definitely do! They don’t terrorize your lips, they feel pleasant, but they still noticeably plump them. The only thing is you need to apply some more on top every few hours if you want the effect to stay because they absorb into the skin
Great video! Thanks for sharing. I was thinking in some of them, like cover girl and Nyx concealer. It's a shame 💕
Wet n wild has been lack luster this year. You should try the shopmissa paw paw liquid concealer it’s so good!
Ooooh we’re early! Happy holidays everyone I hope you all receive lots of makeup🥳🥳
I love the CG fresh powder!!
Awesome video as always Zabrena.
City lips lip plumper is fabulous!! I don't know of it's really plumping but my lips look so much better using it and in the area where I've lost pigment it has brought it back and I think that makes a big difference. Honestly though you have fabulous lips already!
Ok I'm so happy for this video since everyone's been doing best of 2020 this is taking the opposite route and I'm excited! I need to know what not to bother getting 😁
The Maybelline eyeshadow is a perfect example of why it is really nice to get an all day wear test. A lot of shadows fade significantly. Thank you!
I have been so enjoying drugstore December💕😊 I love Pacifica's products especially their skin care since they use more natural non-toxic ingredients. I also love their Stellar Gaze mascara and their liquid cover concealer. I'm sorry that their eye liner smudged so badly like that but would love to see you try some more of their products😊 I hope you have a blessed Christmas, Zabrena!🎄❤
Elf camo concealer would be my pick. Everyone was going on and on about how great it was and I found it extremely disappointing. Casey and horrible to blend, just awful waste of money.
I would also agree about the Kiss eyelash kit. I didn’t lose any magnets lol, but they kept lifting on the inner corner 😔
Your hair is so beautiful!
Oh no, I almost picked up The Nudes of New York the other day! Merry Christmas Z! I hope you have a very Blessed holiday with your family!!
Love your videos! For me, the larger Profusion eye shadow palette. Ugh. Was a mess. The glitter shadows swatched like glitter glue on my arm and was even worse to apply.
I love the Maybelline New York and also the cheek heat blushes. Wow, that’s really sad that they didn’t work for you.
I’m usually in the minority 😂 but I’m glad they worked for you! yay!
Merry Christmas! Brooklyn... L'oreal soft matte lipstick, I agree about the Maybelline pallette, Thanks.
The Too Faced Lip Injection works amazing for me.
No -not just your experience with the kiss lashes and liner! Mine also lost a magnet and kept popping up at the corners and peeling up the magnetic mascara. I switched to the other drugstore magnetic one (Ardell?? I'm not at home to check) and love it to pieces - will never fight strip lashes and glue again.
I loved your video! Have you seen Maybelline Color Strike eye shadow tubes? They SO need to be added to your list!! The idea is fantastic, something easy to travel with but wow! No pigment to the colors!! I bought two, one had an applicator broken so no way to reach the eye shadow!! What a waste of money!!
Thank You Zabrena for all your December videos :-)) Christmas Eve :-))) You like my daughter are going to be busy for Santa lol. oxoxo
Hi there Gorgeous! Merry Christmas to you and your family 🙏🏼😘💕
I hope you and your family are doing well. You’re all always in my prayers.
I’m glad I didn’t try any of these products. 😂 I’ve been buying mostly Indy brands. I haven’t bought much this year. I haven’t been wearing much makeup lately. Plus most of my makeup is packed. I’m still looking for a place to live. There have been a lot of set backs. God’s just waiting for the right place for me.
First off, I think you're an absolutely freaking amazing human!😊 I completely agree with your reviews of these products!! I haven't tried a couple of them, but the majority of them I have and it's a big thumbs down from me!👎 Thank you for your awesome videos... I appreciate you and your hard work!!
My sister used the kiss magnetic liner and eyelashes and she loved and it worked for her.
Oh...AND...the Believe foundation that some tubers rave about. Made my skin itch like crazy
Merry Christmas to you and yours❤️🎁🎄❤️
That's interesting, I really love the Almay quads, but I only use the white. I like the variety for my brow highlight.
That CG has been a constant dislike by everyone I have seen review it, plus IRL.
Thanks for the video- you have helped me save some money! Happy holidays to all.⛄🎄
Hi Zabrena 🤍
May I ask what palette you have on your eyes in this video while you're speaking? It's absolutely stunning!!
I love the magnetic lashes from Arishine ordered thru Amazon. I have been able to not just use but reuse the lashes and they stay in place. The liner looked good and stayed in place too.
I personally didn't like the Maybelline waterproof mascara the one that is silver and purple, I heard that it worked on others but it didn't work out for me because it was so smudgey, I actually agree with you about the lip plumpers because I never see any difference, I enjoyed your videos today as always, I can't wait for tomorrow's video❤
Wow, I love my Break up proof liner. I have the pencil and liquid liner. I use them both all the time
Thank you very informative.
Oh my goodness yes! I'm glad I'm not the only one that hates that cover girl skinmilk foundation...worst ever!!!!!
Merry Christmas Zabrena!
Thank you Doll..💗
Everyone is so different. It's funny. I love the covergirl skinmilk and the nyx radiant concealer!
I'm shocked about your review of maybelline nudes of NY! It's basically the only neutral pallet I have used this year. I'm also a greasy skin girl. I've had many other maybelline palletes and they were basically unusable. Guess it just goes to show that everyone has different experience with makeup and you cant judge a product my someone else experience. Anyway you're awesome and always enjoy watching!
The worst thing i tried was the cover girl exhibitionist mascara. The slightest hint of my eye watering would send that thing melting everywhere. I never buy waterproof mascaras and have never had that problem before.
Yes!! I took this to Disney and everyday was a raccoon day.
The waterproof version also runs on me horribly after 6 or 7 hours of wear.
Yeah.. The only Almay eyeshadow brick I actually like was the stark white one.. I use it as a highlighter. Lol
I had the same issue with the Cover Girl Clean Fresh Skin Milk Foundation and I typically have dry skin in the winter and normal during the summer.
The regular liner is terrible but the Wet N Wild Breakup proof liquid liner pen is amazing. It's my holy grail black liner, really black and goes on smooth. It lasts a long time too.
I agree with the maybelline cheek and the NYX concealer..I have not tried the other products mentioned.
