Hey guys! I’m back with more tips on how to shop smart for makeup! You guys really loved the first video I did on this and I’m so happy these tips have been so helpful! ❤️ enjoy the video! What other tips do you find helpful while shopping smart for makeup? xox
I go through my Sephora app Loves list regularly, and delete things I won't get at all. I try to delete duplicates of the same product from different brands too.
I read this the other day: If I see an item I like, I think of a price I would be willing to pay for it. If the actual price turns out to be more, I won't get it.
Ok I know that I am 2 years late watching this video and I must say that I wish I had. I could have used all this advice this past year. I kinda went crazy purchasing makeup. Also I had been getting all the boxycharm subscriptions and ipsy for over a year. I have boxes of makeup and skincare that is going to take me years to use up. I canceled all my subscription boxes. That way I'm not accumulating products I'm never going to use
Tip: do not buy and hoard 20 foundations, highlighters, bronzer, concealers, setting powder. Use up what u have and buy when your holy grail when you have empties. No one needs 20 foundations, etc. You have one face.
Marghie Payumo I agree I do that too. I won’t let myself by certain new products til I use up the same kind of product I already have like for instance if it’s a new setting powder.
FWIW: former Ulta employee. Many shoppers redeem their points as soon as they have any. However, if you do routinely by there, save your points and redeem at the 2,000 ot mark. If you redeem 1950 pts, you get 85$ worth if credit. If you redeem 2,000, you get $125 worth of credit. Combine with a 20% coupon that includes your entire purchase and prestige brands, and you'll save a good deal.
I have one small tip myself: to stop using the word 'collection' when referring to our (well, mine for sure....) already huge stack of products. I've started saying to myself 'This is one more item that would most likely go unutilized' instead of 'I'll add it to my collection' - and this has stopped me from many error buys.
@@cherylcarlysle1629 a lot of people do, I for myself learned it here on youtube and thinking of 'my make up' as 'my collection of makeup' did make me constantly add more things just for the sake of it.
I always have to remind myself that if I am not willing to or can’t afford to buy the product at full price, I should not buy it just because it’s on sale!
when I first started watching youtube I was overwhelmed... I feel like I just bought everything that they used...I bought it all, I ended up with almost every new release. I found that some brands just did not do it for me and some worked better. I will always be a MAC lipstick girl, so I stick to what I know in that category. I am currently enjoying USING UP many of my products and keeping an edited collection of products that I love.
I just buy what I need and replace as I go. Aside from freebies from GWP, I basically have 1-3 of each product per function. I love having a small, well used and loved makeup collection.
Unfollow RUclipsrs who's main purpose is to make money off of us. That made a bug difference in my life. And also ones who are bullies/have sharp tongues. Humility is a must.
Really love this series! We need a sensible leader to re-direct us in this crazy world of consumerism that bombards us all! Thanks so much for the reinforcements! Have a wonderful day! ;-)
A good bench mark for a beauty budget is 5% of what you make. Read that this is a healthy amount for clothes and the like. So, the 5% is inclusive of clothes, shoes, makeup. If one has spent that 5% on a palette, then no new shoes. 😘
Thank you Jena love this series, I came across a video in which the girl was doing a no buy, she suggested to try and replicate new releases with palettes you already own, if you can get a similar look using several of your existing palettes then you don't need the new one. I'm going to try depotting eyeshadows and placing them in Z palettes and just move them around depending on the palettes I want to dupe, this way I can get the most use of each individual color.
One hard lesson I’ve learned is not to buy color products from a digital image if at all possible. Blush shades online seem often to bear little relationship to the color that shows up in the mail. I won’t even get into foundations. I’ve wasted SO much money this way (and I’m not a good returner either, no credit to me).
the most thing will make people realize that purchase is not worth it when they needed that money for something so much more important . this video is amazing thank you!
Angela Pennington I was doing so well - unsubscribed from everything and made it 2.5 months without buying anything. Sounds lame, but the first couple weeks were very hard. I still browse and daydream, but I’m trying to only get things I need or will use. I didn’t need another eyeshadow palette but got sucked into the Lorac palette - not the best palette I’ve ever seen but it seems very versatile for every day (realistic for me over the Too Faced Chocolate Gold). The videos I watched from people I trust gave it good reviews, but with formulas changing how do I know what they think now?
I am decluttering my makeup today and Oh My it is overwhelming. I so appreciate this series. I if it is on sale, I am buying it....the madness needs to stop and with your help, I think I can do it. Love ya'. 😘😘😘😘😘
Good luck! Lol I find I feel so amazing after decluttering but it is a lot of work! 😬 thank you for watching and I’m so happy these videos are so helpful for you! ❤️
Jena, this was so very helpful. I usually keep myself on a strict budget but ...it’s tax time, and I most recently went on a “you’ve been so responsible with makeup purchases” shopping excursion. All of these ideas are practical and ones I will try to take into practice. It’s refreshing to see someone who loves luxury brands be so conscious of spending and money saving techniques. Thank you so much!!!
Thanks for watching Joey! Ahh I love that you used your tax return on some gifts for yourself though! (If I’m understanding you correctly, lol). Rewarding yourself here and there gives you a good balance. If I was strict ALL the time, I’d be depressed! ❤️
Also I really can't wait to start vision boards and monthly budgets. I do Evernote lists of makeup purchase planning per month but vision boards sound much more effective as a visual especially if I add the pricing
Having a 30 day waiting period before I buy a makeup or clothing item really helps me. It helps me know what items I get really excited about but then the excitement fades... and what items keep my interest for months and will be worth the purchase.
I had one blush last me 5 years. Imagine if I had 5 in my collection. Makeup is addictive. Only buy what you need or or running out of. Your makeup will go stale if you go crazy. Save your money and be smart.
Great ideas and video! One tip - it's very good for your time management and mental health - stop checking Instagram and unsubscribe from YT make-up channels. Who needs Instagram anyway??? Unsubscribe from newsletters sent by make-up brands. As Whitney Hedrick said, on her channel, learn new make-up techniques, so that You can use the make-up You already have in the best possible way.
When shopping sales, to assess how good of a deal you are getting, instead of looking at how much you are being discounted (i.e. 20%), look at how much you are paying (i.e. 80%). 20% off sounds a lot better than 80% on!
I agree with everything you said! Thank you so much for making me feel like its it's okay to let my rouge status expire this year by being a smarter shopper!
Outstanding video, Jena, thanks so much! I can't speak for others but for me I've found I'm much more controlled shopping online than in the store. In store the girls all tell you how wonderful this or that product is and how it would look good with your eyes, etc. and you cave to the pressure. Online, even though I put things I like in the *basket* so I can check out RUclips reviews, etc. I have no problem taking them right out of the basket! The struggle is real....!!
Thank you so much for discussing the importance of shopping smart. I only buy makeup if I enjoy the products or if I am low of my favorite makeup or skincare. I started this 8 months ago. I also shop the travel section to try out a product before I buy. Free samples are always sweet. I really enjoy and 😍 makeup but skincare is my favorite.
i really like this series & the timing you’re posting them. i feel like i’ve seen a lot of videos where people are trying to justify or figure out if something on sale is worth trying/getting by having people convince them to do it, and i wish they’d just follow their gut and say no or think about why they need it critically. i mean i love when the sales come up, but so far i’ve gotten two items from the ulta sale - abh brow wiz because i fly through those, and the mac painterly pot because i do use concealer on my eyelids & really wanted to try it out for a long time. all i have left is eyeliners which i literally have one left & a favorite is on sale so i’m definitely picking those up, and then a primer i’ve wanted to try for well over a year. but everything else is not needed, there’s even products i love on sale, but i already have some of them & they’ll take forever to get through. i don’t need more just because i like that product.
also thank you for mentioning the sephora samples. i always forget to ask because in all the years i’ve shopped at sephora i’ve never been offered a sample of anything i’m looking at.
I know!! They need to be more vocal about the fact that they can give you samples. I think overall it would help, even though making a sale might be the goal, but if the product gets returned it doesn’t help their store goals for sales anyway! I’m so glad you like this series Hannah! 💕 I love having a good balance of items I’m using up, and items I’m introducing into my collection. The industry now is SO crazy with releases it could bankrupt us all! 😬
Jena Froese it definitely would! i’ve worked retail most of my life so far, and one of them was for a cosmetics business. we gave samples all the time & it worked! i would only feel irked if someone had more than 3 & we noticed particular customers who over took advantage of it, but they were seriously so rare! we only had maybe a handful of these customers & we were an extremely busy store, so giving a couple samples is not detrimental at all & it most definitely helps with returns. you have less of them & you lose/waste less product because you can’t resell cosmetics. especially items like concealer & foundation i think they should be very open about samples because stuff gets returned for being the wrong shade a lot. oh my goodness, so many releases, i’m so glad i’m a more casual makeup user because when i watch all the release news it’s so overwhelming & when i think about all the money enthusiasts must spend i hurt for them a little, lol.
I have an issue where I keep buying things because I think I’ll like them but then don’t. I cannot seem to find a foundation I like and when I finally do, it gets discontinued. So I keep buying and buying and buying hoping to find that one elusive foundation/powder/eyeshadow palette/mascara that I like so I can get rid of all the crap I already have. That is one of the most frustrating parts of makeup for me. Plus the constant bombardment of new things they make you feel you need when you don’t. Also, sales used to actually be sales, 20% off isn’t really a sale, it’s a slight discount. A sale is 50% off or more. You have ONE face people, it’s hard to forget that with all the pretty colors and packaging, etc. I used to buy based on pretty colors but then I realized, I don’t use those colors. Now I know what colors and finishes work for my face and that is very helpful in itself.
Samples, samples, samples... that has helped me soo much. Every time I go to Sephora now I get a bunch of samples and not just for foundation though that's what I get the most, you can get sample of anything they can get in the container, foundations, concealers, moisturizer, eye cream, primers AND perfume! I was really wanting those Jo Malone weed perfumes and I got samples of them and I am so glad I did because while the packaging is gorgeous- I didn't end up liking any of the scents. Don't be afraid to ask for a sample.
I almost got sidetracked by Sephora this morning, I noticed they have the new Tatcha dewy moisturizer in a free trial size with $35 purchase. Firstly, Tatcha is one of my loyalty brands, LOVE their stuff and I use it every day. Secondly, I didn't need a thing. Nothing. Went through my loves list and tried to put together a staples order just for the lousy sample until I asked myself "what am I doing?" I have so much Tatcha moisturizer in action (and in backup... I'm not buying backups anymore, I put a stop to that, even when on sale) that by the time I get through it all and I'm ready for a new moisturizer Tatcha will offer travel sized tubs of the dewy (which they currently don't have) on their site--or have something even newer and better. Crisis narrowly avoided!
I made a sephora order just to get a free cleanser from drunk elephant, im not as upset about my order since half of it got canceled for being out of stock. The universe didn't want me to spend my money
That exact thing happened to me today. I almost bought $63 of stuff from Sephora just so I could get free shipping on one of their 500 points reward items. Then I thought, "what am I doing?" and removed everything from my cart. Yeesh, this no-buy thing I'm on can be hard, even when I already know all of the stuff I have and have back-ups of...
Yay! I'm so excited for this! I posted my strategies for a no buy earlier this week. They're a bit different since I'm not buying anything, but I think it's a similar mindset. I purchased so much last year just because it was on sale! I definitely had to turn that around. Thanks for being such a good influence, Jena! It's very refreshing!
Lol! We can all relate Tara! Don’t you worry :) I’m so glad you’re staying strong with your no buy! I really think that takes so much discipline. 💕 you’re a rockstar girl!!
I use sales to buy almost all of my high-end palettes. I never pay full price for high-end makeup unless I have gotten Sephora gift cards. Then there's TJ Maxx. Which you have to be careful with because you will over spend seeing so many high end items for discounted prices. There are so many RUclips videos with people scavenging numerous TJ Maxx and Marshall's stores spending unnecessarily.
I rarely find anything at TJMaxx! Some stores must be better than others. Either that or the things I do see that I’m slightly interested in have been opened and messed around with 😬 but using sales for high end makeup is great!
Girl I have realized I have a make up addiction. It’s like I almost can’t help myself I just impulsively buy beautiful things I’m attracted to even if I have other options at home in the same category. Even worse I have way to much makeup and it’s just to hard for me to declutter it because what if I fall in like with it again? And I’m terrible about buying of the word sale is involved. I think I need to find a way to stop buying for a moment. Thanks for you’re tips. If you think of anything that might help me please let me know thanks girl. 💕💕
This is a great series! It's all too easy to buy makeup that we will never use. I try to stick to my holy grails and try something new every other month. Definitely plan to buy the Urban Decay Game of Thrones collab! So saving up for that. Thanks Jena.... Juliet and I love you! 💕💕💕
For Ulta 21 days of beauty I stocked up on the Anastasia Brow Wiz, I plan on purchasing the Primerizer this Wednesday, and the Lorac pro 3 on the final day because I love neutral palettes and will get a lot of use out of it. But the brow wiz I know I will repurchase and the Primerizer I only buy the travel size because it’s cheaper to buy two for 15 than the full size for 42 which makes no sense to me that two travel sizes are cheaper for the same amount in a full size. 21 dollars is much more reasonable. I also have over 700 points saved at Sephora ❤️
I use the app beauty keeper to inventory all my makeup. It isn’t the best. But it does the job. it shows you what is expiring soon so it helps me use up my old makeup. And this could be your inventory tool while shopping.
I love the budget idea. And I am super guilty with a sale (Infact now with 21 days of beauty) of just wanting to buy all kinds!! But once again these tips are really helpful! Loved this video!
Another thing that's tempting is color story. We look at something new and think WOW that's unique! Come to find, we have that color story in a much cheaper palette! I bought a pricey sunset palette. Come to find I had the same story in my BH neutrals! Look at the Maybelline bar palette. It's the same story as wnw rose in the air! Wnw is cheaper! 😍
And it's good? Sorry, because in my country we only have maybelline, Rimmel and other brand( and it's not really cheap) And if i want something. I need yo buy it online...and it's really expensive
Same here. I get major mean girls vibes from certain social media people. Talent/beauty isn't everything, being a good person is. Fame and money goes to their heads especially the "younger" ones.
I LOVE that you did this video!!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 My “no-buy” still going strong in the 1st quarter. 😊 And I agree that the 20% is not that great or enough to cause you to go nuts with shopping excessively.. Thank you for this wonderful public service announcement for all us beauty junkies. 💋❤️💄
I love to get 100 pts. mascaras, I got hourglass caution, stila huge lashes, Marc Jacobs velvet noir, YSL shock and all these turned out to be my repurchases. And I rarely purchase them because I keep an eye out for rewards because chances are one of those will there very few months and if not there might be a mascara that I was interested in buying but now I can try it without spending money.
That’s awesome! I’ve found that sometimes they can give you a sample of mascaras that they have in store for free (so without having to spend your points) so I just mentioned it in this video so people know ☺️
Do tell. 💄🎨 I have a list on the Sephora app, I need a serum and want an essence. My list is long, but I definitely have to pick and choose what I will buy. 😉😊
Hi Jena ! I have found the rouge reward on the Canadian app. It’s just available at certain time usually on a Thursday but you have to be on line when it appears it sells out really fast within 5 mins. But you tip on the US to get more then 100 Canadians is an awesome TIP !! I will do that next time
Great tips once again, Jena. I just passed 2500 points for my Rouge rewards, so it was especially helpful to hear you talk about how to use the gift card. I had thought about getting an eyeshadow palette from a brand I've never tried as a splurge, but I'm going to stick with a brand I already know I love since I won't be able to return it.
I liked a lot of your tips. Especially, the one about utilizing samples! I never think to get samples when I'm shopping but really it is the best way to test foundations, concealers,and SPF. I have sensitive skin and have to be careful with base products. I do have one thing I want to say about VIP Rouge. Saving your points to get cash is great! However, I have never spent enough money per calendar year to make it past the insider status nor do I want to increase my spending to make it to the next tier. I think a lot of people get sucked into the trap of trying to obtain these top tier statuses.In reality the amount of money you are required to spend to get these perks is substantial and the perks are not worth it! Spending $1300 to get $100 is crazy to me. Especially when my average spending is between $200-400 per year.The points system is set up to trick you into buying more... "oh if you spend this you get to participate in the 20% off sale or get early access". So people buy more than they would have to get those perks. The amount of money they would have saved at the sales is minimal to what they were required to spend just to get the perk. Perhaps the goal should be to maintain our insider status in a calendar year?
Thanks for the great video! I’m a Sephora Rouge member and I’ve been saving my points for a few years now and have never used them yet. I just haven’t seen anything that caught my eye and didn’t want to waste them. You are also right about new packaging for products. I love the Nars blush orgasm and was so tempted to buy it in the different package, but ended up not doing so because at the end of the day, I still haven’t used the one I currently have. Yay me! 😊
another tip i have is wjat i call the swatch sheets so all of my lipsticks and liquid lipsticks and glosses and colored liners abd such i write the vrand and nane and do a small swatch of color and take photos so i have them on my person but also on a sheet so if i need a certain color i go to the nude section and see if i have it or before i buy new i can compare. and for liner makes building looks so easy because i can see whT liners i have and their color payoff without having to swatch each one before picking!!
I love trying new things but I only have one face. 😂 My husband doesn’t even care if I wear makeup or not so not like I’ll be getting any compliments anyways! Haha. I’ve been trying new stuff through Influenster for free so that helps satisfy my itch!
I really hope this no buy years / how to declutter etc trend will not just be a fad but that it will make people more aware about how and how much they spend their money for - and teach them that most of the times 'less is more'.
The rouge rewards tip is amazing thanks Jena I will switch over to the US website as I have NEVER seen $100 reward on the Canadian website and was starting to think I would never get the reward!
Hey Jena. I started to work out what the price of the product is per gram for eyeshadows. I think it would be good to have this as part of reviews. I worked out the ABH Riveria is between $8 to $6.50 per gram ($AUS) depending if you purchase it for $82 or $69.50. You hardly get any product in the new ABH palette. Natasha Denona is around $5 per gram but she put in 2.5grams per pan. However, can you use that much before the shelf life of product expires? if not wasting money. ABH is only 0.74 grams per pan that is way above price per gram of Tarte and Urban decay. Just an idea for future videos.
I have recently stopped watching channels that only discuss drugstore makeup. . I just have had no luck with drugstore cosmetics. I have found I will buy drugstore products because they are recommended “dupes” but then I have decluttered all of it. I realize I have been wasting money trying to find cheaper makeup. I guess I felt I needed to find something in that drugstore so I would not be a snob. So, I will buy the high end or luxury product and will enjoy it and will no longer search for that “dupe”. I wasted hundreds of dollars last year in the drugstore. Thanks for sharing your tips!
I like to order dupes online but there are certain brands just like with high end makeup, that speak to me. I never try to buy drugstore makeup from like for example Maybelline if you buy 2 lipsticks you can buy 1 MAC it’s not spending smart for me. Why am I still thinking this way? It’s easy to pile in $40 or $50 from the drugstore in ur cart when you can buy one or maybe 2, good things from high end that will serve you better unless they are from your regular dupe brands you trust. I’m glad Jena shared this info.
I think this is an important message when you love makeup and can get caught up in the consumerism of the industry. I have yet to see the 100 dollar rouge reward though I have checked the US site before. At least I know it exists!
I just saw a ghost! They just had the 100 dollar Sephora reward on both the US AND Canadian site. I ordered the one off the US site as it’s worth more and I live near the border. Yeah!
Great suggestions! I was in Marshall's and saw abh modern renaissance for 20usd but I restrained because I just bought 2 from the ulta sale ! I was very proud of myself but the temptation is real! Lol! Can u list some of your trusted youtubers?TIA
During the sale Ipick up one foundation because i buy 2 a year, eye makeup remover and 1 lip balm/lipstick, and bday gifts for my sister that loves sephora;, i only buy my skin care during sales. I couldnt find a palette in sephora that called my name so i am passing. I also lilke the sephora favorites on sale because i get to try nee stuff in an already bundle price + discount
Guess my saying " the limit does not exist in makeup " for me should be Re evaluated 😂😂 I did try some of your first tips from part 1 on my splurge shopping this month. Most of the stuff I bought was from brands I know n love so it counts right??🤣
Great video! Thanks so much💖 And I love you're Canadian so your suggestions are easy for me to follow. Not that they are generally Nation-specific, but it does help😊😊
Hey Jena, I’m Canadian like yourself and was wondering about the Rouge Reward. I followed your tip about redeeming on the US site. I was able to snag one, but I’m just wondering if I can order off the American site to my Canadian address? I really want the Mothership V palette but not for $170 CAD!
Hey Nicky! You can use the reward for either site, but unfortunately you need a US shipping address for the US site. You can order the rouge reward from the US site because it doesn’t require a shipping address, but any products you order unfortunately you need one 😢
These are really good tips and reminders especially with the Sephora sale coming up soon! Even though I just splurged on the ND biba palette recently! Lol! It’s easy for me to follow you b/c we have the same skin type and makeup style! I love your makeup today, so pretty! Love your channel! ❤️
Jena Froese ...I haven’t had a chance to try it yet, I just got it in the mail. The day it released I was like, ok no I’m not buying it haha! Then a few days passed and I caved. I’ll let you know what I think of it. Hopefully it’s as pretty on the eyes as it is in the palette! 👍
Hey guys! I’m back with more tips on how to shop smart for makeup! You guys really loved the first video I did on this and I’m so happy these tips have been so helpful! ❤️ enjoy the video!
What other tips do you find helpful while shopping smart for makeup? xox

I read this the other day: If I see an item I like, I think of a price I would be willing to pay for it. If the actual price turns out to be more, I won't get it.
I love this! Will you be doing anything else like this for the holidays? I think that’d be great because of all the new releases! ♥️
Ok I know that I am 2 years late watching this video and I must say that I wish I had. I could have used all this advice this past year. I kinda went crazy purchasing makeup. Also I had been getting all the boxycharm subscriptions and ipsy for over a year. I have boxes of makeup and skincare that is going to take me years to use up. I canceled all my subscription boxes.

Marghie Payumo I agree I do that too. I won’t let myself by certain new products til I use up the same kind of product I already have like for instance if it’s a new setting powder.
FWIW: former Ulta employee. Many shoppers redeem their points as soon as they have any. However, if you do routinely by there, save your points and redeem at the 2,000 ot mark. If you redeem 1950 pts, you get 85$ worth if credit. If you redeem 2,000, you get $125 worth of credit. Combine with a 20% coupon that includes your entire purchase and prestige brands, and you'll save a good deal.
Janice Crosby that’s like what I alwayssss do. Customers never got it. (Former ulta employee as well) :)
Not a former Ulta employee but that's what I do. That's how I get my fave high-end primer and setting powder.
Janice Crosby ty baby
Tip: if you are in debt or have zero savings, do not buy more make up.
Marghie Payumo COULDNT AGREE MORE ^^^^^
Lol very true
Delayed gratification is a priceless life skill❣️😊
It really is! ☺️
Makeuplover Texas I’ve been doing that lately too!
I have one small tip myself: to stop using the word 'collection' when referring to our (well, mine for sure....) already huge stack of products. I've started saying to myself 'This is one more item that would most likely go unutilized' instead of 'I'll add it to my collection' - and this has stopped me from many error buys.
Ginger Cat that’s a really good tip :)
I never call my products a collection. It’s called my makeup.
@@cherylcarlysle1629 a lot of people do, I for myself learned it here on youtube and thinking of 'my make up' as 'my collection of makeup' did make me constantly add more things just for the sake of it.
I always have to remind myself that if I am not willing to or can’t afford to buy the product at full price, I should not buy it just because it’s on sale!
Omg! Amazing tip Katie! I love it! ☺️
That's a good one - especially for skincare we need to repurchase over and over.
Katie Wadsworth that’s what I’ve been doing too :)
Yes! So good!
Oh gosh that’s a good one.
when I first started watching youtube I was overwhelmed... I feel like I just bought everything that they used...I bought it all, I ended up with almost every new release. I found that some brands just did not do it for me and some worked better. I will always be a MAC lipstick girl, so I stick to what I know in that category. I am currently enjoying USING UP many of my products and keeping an edited collection of products that I love.
That's amazing! :)
I just buy what I need and replace as I go. Aside from freebies from GWP, I basically have 1-3 of each product per function. I love having a small, well used and loved makeup collection.
Unfollow RUclipsrs who's main purpose is to make money off of us. That made a bug difference in my life. And also ones who are bullies/have sharp tongues. Humility is a must.
Really love this series! We need a sensible leader to re-direct us in this crazy world of consumerism that bombards us all! Thanks so much for the reinforcements!
Have a wonderful day! ;-)
Thank you Laura!! 💕 have a wonderful day too! 😘
Laura Libner I need this. Badly.
Wendy French yeah I’ve bought two smaller eye palettes in the past week that I’m sure I didn’t need.. I hope I like them.🤯
Laura Libner I really love this series too :)
Tip: wait for the makeup to be released at TJ maxx
Marghie Payumo yasss I have found so many awesome products I had on a wishlist for a year or two years and then I found them on sale for half off!! 😍
I agree!! That’s what I do 😊
Great idea!
A good bench mark for a beauty budget is 5% of what you make. Read that this is a healthy amount for clothes and the like. So, the 5% is inclusive of clothes, shoes, makeup. If one has spent that 5% on a palette, then no new shoes. 😘
That’s a great tip!! ❤️
Personally I’m way too obsessed to stop buying but these tips are actually amazing. This is great information!
I'm the same. When people keep saying 'see what you've got' or what you need. It never stops me. I think I need professional help!
Thank you Jena love this series, I came across a video in which the girl was doing a no buy, she suggested to try and replicate new releases with palettes you already own, if you can get a similar look using several of your existing palettes then you don't need the new one. I'm going to try depotting eyeshadows and placing them in Z palettes and just move them around depending on the palettes I want to dupe, this way I can get the most use of each individual color.
That’s a great tip Norma!! 💕
One hard lesson I’ve learned is not to buy color products from a digital image if at all possible. Blush shades online seem often to bear little relationship to the color that shows up in the mail. I won’t even get into foundations. I’ve wasted SO much money this way (and I’m not a good returner either, no credit to me).
I so needed to hear this! Thank you.
Thanks for watching Liz! 💕
the most thing will make people realize that purchase is not worth it when they needed that money for something so much more important . this video is amazing thank you!
Aww thank you!! ❤️
So true. Bills and food come first. Makeup later lol.
I don’t have a budget but I have a list, so when I have some extra I get strictly what I know I’ve been really wanting/needing ☺️
That’s great Nathalia!
I enjoy watching these type of videos! Any help on saving my money is highly appreciated😀
Yay thank you Kelly! 💕
I go crazy during the 21 days of beauty. I needed this video and part 1!
Lol! Don’t worry we’ve all been there! You’re not alone 💕
I hear you. I much prefer Sephora so I usually end up ignoring most of the Ulta sales. 😂💄🎨😉 But this video is so good.
Angela Pennington I was doing so well - unsubscribed from everything and made it 2.5 months without buying anything. Sounds lame, but the first couple weeks were very hard. I still browse and daydream, but I’m trying to only get things I need or will use. I didn’t need another eyeshadow palette but got sucked into the Lorac palette - not the best palette I’ve ever seen but it seems very versatile for every day (realistic for me over the Too Faced Chocolate Gold). The videos I watched from people I trust gave it good reviews, but with formulas changing how do I know what they think now?
I am decluttering my makeup today and Oh My it is overwhelming. I so appreciate this series. I if it is on sale, I am buying it....the madness needs to stop and with your help, I think I can do it. Love ya'. 😘😘😘😘😘
Good luck! Lol I find I feel so amazing after decluttering but it is a lot of work! 😬 thank you for watching and I’m so happy these videos are so helpful for you! ❤️
I love the vision board idea!
Another Tip: Don’t buy so much liquids like foundation and Mascara, they expire quicker than you can use them up 😅
That’s a good one! ☺️
Yes, mascara is 3 months. Foundations are 12 months from the day you open it. Having 4 opened foundations is not a good idea.
Jena, this was so very helpful. I usually keep myself on a strict budget but ...it’s tax time, and I most recently went on a “you’ve been so responsible with makeup purchases” shopping excursion. All of these ideas are practical and ones I will try to take into practice. It’s refreshing to see someone who loves luxury brands be so conscious of spending and money saving techniques. Thank you so much!!!
Thanks for watching Joey! Ahh I love that you used your tax return on some gifts for yourself though! (If I’m understanding you correctly, lol). Rewarding yourself here and there gives you a good balance. If I was strict ALL the time, I’d be depressed! ❤️
Also I really can't wait to start vision boards and monthly budgets. I do Evernote lists of makeup purchase planning per month but vision boards sound much more effective as a visual especially if I add the pricing
Yes!!! That’s amazing! I love it Vanessa! 💕
Vanessa Lamontagne I love the idea of vision boards!
Having a 30 day waiting period before I buy a makeup or clothing item really helps me. It helps me know what items I get really excited about but then the excitement fades... and what items keep my interest for months and will be worth the purchase.
Great tip!! ❤️
I had one blush last me 5 years. Imagine if I had 5 in my collection. Makeup is addictive. Only buy what you need or or running out of. Your makeup will go stale if you go crazy. Save your money and be smart.
Great ideas and video! One tip - it's very good for your time management and mental health - stop checking Instagram and unsubscribe from YT make-up channels. Who needs Instagram anyway??? Unsubscribe from newsletters sent by make-up brands. As Whitney Hedrick said, on her channel, learn new make-up techniques, so that You can use the make-up You already have in the best possible way.
Great tips!! 💕💕
@@JenaFroese Thank You so much!
When shopping sales, to assess how good of a deal you are getting, instead of looking at how much you are being discounted (i.e. 20%), look at how much you are paying (i.e. 80%). 20% off sounds a lot better than 80% on!
Oh my! Yes! That’s a great tip Amy!! I love it 💕
I bought 5 Anastasia brow wiz and ulta body wash during the sale. Only hoarding the must needs. 👍🏻
Awesome!! ☺️
Love love love this Jena !
Thanks babe!! ❤️
I agree with everything you said! Thank you so much for making me feel like its it's okay to let my rouge status expire this year by being a smarter shopper!
Thanks Karen! 💕
Outstanding video, Jena, thanks so much! I can't speak for others but for me I've found I'm much more controlled shopping online than in the store. In store the girls all tell you how wonderful this or that product is and how it would look good with your eyes, etc. and you cave to the pressure. Online, even though I put things I like in the *basket* so I can check out RUclips reviews, etc. I have no problem taking them right out of the basket! The struggle is real....!!
Thanks Barbara! 💕
Wish I watched this BEFORE Ulta’s 21 days of beauty lol!!!
Hahaha! 😂
Canadian here! The tip for the rouge reward cash is fantastic!!! Thank you for explaining how to find it on the American site.
😘😘😘 yay! Canadians are the best ❤️
Thank you so much for discussing the importance of shopping smart. I only buy makeup if I enjoy the products or if I am low of my favorite makeup or skincare. I started this 8 months ago. I also shop the travel section to try out a product before I buy. Free samples are always sweet. I really enjoy and 😍 makeup but skincare is my favorite.
Yay! That’s awesome Sharon ☺️
i really like this series & the timing you’re posting them. i feel like i’ve seen a lot of videos where people are trying to justify or figure out if something on sale is worth trying/getting by having people convince them to do it, and i wish they’d just follow their gut and say no or think about why they need it critically. i mean i love when the sales come up, but so far i’ve gotten two items from the ulta sale - abh brow wiz because i fly through those, and the mac painterly pot because i do use concealer on my eyelids & really wanted to try it out for a long time. all i have left is eyeliners which i literally have one left & a favorite is on sale so i’m definitely picking those up, and then a primer i’ve wanted to try for well over a year. but everything else is not needed, there’s even products i love on sale, but i already have some of them & they’ll take forever to get through. i don’t need more just because i like that product.
also thank you for mentioning the sephora samples. i always forget to ask because in all the years i’ve shopped at sephora i’ve never been offered a sample of anything i’m looking at.
I know!! They need to be more vocal about the fact that they can give you samples. I think overall it would help, even though making a sale might be the goal, but if the product gets returned it doesn’t help their store goals for sales anyway!
I’m so glad you like this series Hannah! 💕 I love having a good balance of items I’m using up, and items I’m introducing into my collection. The industry now is SO crazy with releases it could bankrupt us all! 😬
Jena Froese it definitely would! i’ve worked retail most of my life so far, and one of them was for a cosmetics business. we gave samples all the time & it worked! i would only feel irked if someone had more than 3 & we noticed particular customers who over took advantage of it, but they were seriously so rare! we only had maybe a handful of these customers & we were an extremely busy store, so giving a couple samples is not detrimental at all & it most definitely helps with returns. you have less of them & you lose/waste less product because you can’t resell cosmetics. especially items like concealer & foundation i think they should be very open about samples because stuff gets returned for being the wrong shade a lot.
oh my goodness, so many releases, i’m so glad i’m a more casual makeup user because when i watch all the release news it’s so overwhelming & when i think about all the money enthusiasts must spend i hurt for them a little, lol.
Love this series!
Thank you! 💕
I have an issue where I keep buying things because I think I’ll like them but then don’t. I cannot seem to find a foundation I like and when I finally do, it gets discontinued. So I keep buying and buying and buying hoping to find that one elusive foundation/powder/eyeshadow palette/mascara that I like so I can get rid of all the crap I already have. That is one of the most frustrating parts of makeup for me. Plus the constant bombardment of new things they make you feel you need when you don’t.
Also, sales used to actually be sales, 20% off isn’t really a sale, it’s a slight discount. A sale is 50% off or more. You have ONE face people, it’s hard to forget that with all the pretty colors and packaging, etc. I used to buy based on pretty colors but then I realized, I don’t use those colors. Now I know what colors and finishes work for my face and that is very helpful in itself.
You are fab! I have only just found you and I hope your channel grows and grows xx
Thank you ❤️
Samples, samples, samples... that has helped me soo much. Every time I go to Sephora now I get a bunch of samples and not just for foundation though that's what I get the most, you can get sample of anything they can get in the container, foundations, concealers, moisturizer, eye cream, primers AND perfume! I was really wanting those Jo Malone weed perfumes and I got samples of them and I am so glad I did because while the packaging is gorgeous- I didn't end up liking any of the scents. Don't be afraid to ask for a sample.
Absolutely!! That’s amazing! I love this tip because nobody seems to know this! 💕
Lol. Me too!!!
Thank you so much for these great tips. Having a beauty budget makes complete sense but is something I struggle with big time!!
Oh we all do girl don’t even worry! Lol thanks for watching 💕
Great tips & great timing right before Sephora sale. 😄
Hahaha! Yess! ☺️
Bring on Episode 3! 🙌🙌🙌
😘😘😘
I almost got sidetracked by Sephora this morning, I noticed they have the new Tatcha dewy moisturizer in a free trial size with $35 purchase. Firstly, Tatcha is one of my loyalty brands, LOVE their stuff and I use it every day. Secondly, I didn't need a thing. Nothing. Went through my loves list and tried to put together a staples order just for the lousy sample until I asked myself "what am I doing?" I have so much Tatcha moisturizer in action (and in backup... I'm not buying backups anymore, I put a stop to that, even when on sale) that by the time I get through it all and I'm ready for a new moisturizer Tatcha will offer travel sized tubs of the dewy (which they currently don't have) on their site--or have something even newer and better. Crisis narrowly avoided!
Great job!! 💕
I made a sephora order just to get a free cleanser from drunk elephant, im not as upset about my order since half of it got canceled for being out of stock. The universe didn't want me to spend my money
That exact thing happened to me today. I almost bought $63 of stuff from Sephora just so I could get free shipping on one of their 500 points reward items. Then I thought, "what am I doing?" and removed everything from my cart. Yeesh, this no-buy thing I'm on can be hard, even when I already know all of the stuff I have and have back-ups of...
I have a problem...... I am addicted to makeup 😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫
Yay! I'm so excited for this! I posted my strategies for a no buy earlier this week. They're a bit different since I'm not buying anything, but I think it's a similar mindset. I purchased so much last year just because it was on sale! I definitely had to turn that around. Thanks for being such a good influence, Jena! It's very refreshing!
"Simplying not impressed with how much makeup I purchase." (Me- hangs head, slowly raises hand). Lol!
Lol! We can all relate Tara! Don’t you worry :) I’m so glad you’re staying strong with your no buy! I really think that takes so much discipline. 💕 you’re a rockstar girl!!
@@JenaFroese Thanks, Jena! ❤
I use sales to buy almost all of my high-end palettes. I never pay full price for high-end makeup unless I have gotten Sephora gift cards. Then there's TJ Maxx. Which you have to be careful with because you will over spend seeing so many high end items for discounted prices. There are so many RUclips videos with people scavenging numerous TJ Maxx and Marshall's stores spending unnecessarily.
I rarely find anything at TJMaxx! Some stores must be better than others. Either that or the things I do see that I’m slightly interested in have been opened and messed around with 😬 but using sales for high end makeup is great!
Best video ever! 👏👏 you sound very honest and that is sooo appreciated... that is why I like to watch your videos
Thank you!! 💕
Girl I have realized I have a make up addiction. It’s like I almost can’t help myself I just impulsively buy beautiful things I’m attracted to even if I have other options at home in the same category. Even worse I have way to much makeup and it’s just to hard for me to declutter it because what if I fall in like with it again? And I’m terrible about buying of the word sale is involved. I think I need to find a way to stop buying for a moment. Thanks for you’re tips. If you think of anything that might help me please let me know thanks girl. 💕💕
I love this! I have my white Volvo XC90 posted on my home screen, great video!
Yay!! That’s great Ashley 💕
Thank you for this part 2! I loved the first video, but this one is so great too! ❤
Yay! Thanks Kim ❤️
I’m a little behind in watching your videos. I think you have many valid points and interesting ideas! Great advice!
These tips are amazing and sensible. Thank you for this series. Keep them coming please!!!
Yay! Glad you like them! 💕
This was really helpful. I need to set a goal I went a little overboard on the 21 days of beauty at Ulta.
Thank you Maria! 💕
This is a great series! It's all too easy to buy makeup that we will never use. I try to stick to my holy grails and try something new every other month. Definitely plan to buy the Urban Decay Game of Thrones collab! So saving up for that. Thanks Jena.... Juliet and I love you! 💕💕💕
Aww yay!! Thanks so much ladies! Sending you love right back! Have a great week ❤️
For Ulta 21 days of beauty I stocked up on the Anastasia Brow Wiz, I plan on purchasing the Primerizer this Wednesday, and the Lorac pro 3 on the final day because I love neutral palettes and will get a lot of use out of it. But the brow wiz I know I will repurchase and the Primerizer I only buy the travel size because it’s cheaper to buy two for 15 than the full size for 42 which makes no sense to me that two travel sizes are cheaper for the same amount in a full size. 21 dollars is much more reasonable. I also have over 700 points saved at Sephora ❤️
Yay!! That’s great Jessica! 💕
I so needed to hear that you so much ! Excellent series Jen !!!
Thanks so much girl!! 💕
So true, I always on those dilemma...
That’s okay! We’ve all been there ☺️
I use the app beauty keeper to inventory all my makeup. It isn’t the best. But it does the job. it shows you what is expiring soon so it helps me use up my old makeup. And this could be your inventory tool while shopping.
Amazing!! Love this! Thanks Mary :)
I love the budget idea. And I am super guilty with a sale (Infact now with 21 days of beauty) of just wanting to buy all kinds!! But once again these tips are really helpful! Loved this video!
Thanks Candice! ❤️
What an awesome video Jena! Thank you so much. Love all the examples you gave. Your content is just getting better and better!
Aw thank you!! ❤️
Thank you so much. That was so great to listen to all your advice and hacks. Thumbs up!
Thank you Claudia! ❤️
Another thing that's tempting is color story. We look at something new and think WOW that's unique! Come to find, we have that color story in a much cheaper palette! I bought a pricey sunset palette. Come to find I had the same story in my BH neutrals! Look at the Maybelline bar palette. It's the same story as wnw rose in the air! Wnw is cheaper! 😍
Color stories get me every time!
I immediately unsubscribe when the influencers talk about how great morphe anything is. Not a morphe fan.
Anything Morphe makes me cringe. Depressing cheap looking pakaging, endless codes yada yada. No thanks.
And it's good? Sorry, because in my country we only have maybelline, Rimmel and other brand( and it's not really cheap) And if i want something. I need yo buy it online...and it's really expensive
Same here. I get major mean girls vibes from certain social media people. Talent/beauty isn't everything, being a good person is. Fame and money goes to their heads especially the "younger" ones.
Loving that lip color on you!!!
Thank you girl!! ❤️
I LOVE that you did this video!!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 My “no-buy” still going strong in the 1st quarter. 😊 And I agree that the 20% is not that great or enough to cause you to go nuts with shopping excessively.. Thank you for this wonderful public service announcement for all us beauty junkies. 💋❤️💄
Yay!! I’m so glad you enjoyed it!! Thank you 💕
YES GIRL YES I was hoping for a part 2! 🤗🤗😁😁
😘😘😘
I love to get 100 pts. mascaras, I got hourglass caution, stila huge lashes, Marc Jacobs velvet noir, YSL shock and all these turned out to be my repurchases. And I rarely purchase them because I keep an eye out for rewards because chances are one of those will there very few months and if not there might be a mascara that I was interested in buying but now I can try it without spending money.
That’s awesome! I’ve found that sometimes they can give you a sample of mascaras that they have in store for free (so without having to spend your points) so I just mentioned it in this video so people know ☺️
I didn't know about that Rouge Reward info. Thanks!
You’re welcome 💕
Thanks for sharing! 😘😘
Great tips (again). Thanks!!
Thanks Gayle!! 💕
Do tell. 💄🎨 I have a list on the Sephora app, I need a serum and want an essence. My list is long, but I definitely have to pick and choose what I will buy. 😉😊
Ain Lerato Michele that’s what I do too! Sometimes I let it sit in my cart for a few days to see how much I really wanted it. :)
Hi Jena ! I have found the rouge reward on the Canadian app. It’s just available at certain time usually on a Thursday but you have to be on line when it appears it sells out really fast within 5 mins. But you tip on the US to get more then 100 Canadians is an awesome TIP !! I will do that next time
Hahaha I think nobody seems to know that! And maybe it’s not allowed but until they realize it, I’m gonna take advantage hehe
Great tips once again, Jena. I just passed 2500 points for my Rouge rewards, so it was especially helpful to hear you talk about how to use the gift card. I had thought about getting an eyeshadow palette from a brand I've never tried as a splurge, but I'm going to stick with a brand I already know I love since I won't be able to return it.
Thank you Karen!! 💕
I liked a lot of your tips. Especially, the one about utilizing samples! I never think to get samples when I'm shopping but really it is the best way to test foundations, concealers,and SPF. I have sensitive skin and have to be careful with base products. I do have one thing I want to say about VIP Rouge. Saving your points to get cash is great! However, I have never spent enough money per calendar year to make it past the insider status nor do I want to increase my spending to make it to the next tier. I think a lot of people get sucked into the trap of trying to obtain these top tier statuses.In reality the amount of money you are required to spend to get these perks is substantial and the perks are not worth it! Spending $1300 to get $100 is crazy to me. Especially when my average spending is between $200-400 per year.The points system is set up to trick you into buying more... "oh if you spend this you get to participate in the 20% off sale or get early access". So people buy more than they would have to get those perks. The amount of money they would have saved at the sales is minimal to what they were required to spend just to get the perk. Perhaps the goal should be to maintain our insider status in a calendar year?
Wow, this makes a lot of sense! So true!
Thanks for the great video! I’m a Sephora Rouge member and I’ve been saving my points for a few years now and have never used them yet. I just haven’t seen anything that caught my eye and didn’t want to waste them.
You are also right about new packaging for products. I love the Nars blush orgasm and was so tempted to buy it in the different package, but ended up not doing so because at the end of the day, I still haven’t used the one I currently have. Yay me! 😊
Yay!! Great job Stephanie! 💕 I’m so happy you enjoyed the video!
Thank you so much!
another tip i have is wjat i call the swatch sheets so all of my lipsticks and liquid lipsticks and glosses and colored liners abd such i write the vrand and nane and do a small swatch of color and take photos so i have them on my person but also on a sheet so if i need a certain color i go to the nude section and see if i have it or before i buy new i can compare. and for liner makes building looks so easy because i can see whT liners i have and their color payoff without having to swatch each one before picking!!
Amazing!!
Great tips! Love these!
Thank you!! 💕
Great tips! I really needed this video 💖
Thanks girl!! 💕
I love trying new things but I only have one face. 😂 My husband doesn’t even care if I wear makeup or not so not like I’ll be getting any compliments anyways! Haha. I’ve been trying new stuff through Influenster for free so that helps satisfy my itch!
That’s a good tip too! 💕
I really hope this no buy years / how to declutter etc trend will not just be a fad but that it will make people more aware about how and how much they spend their money for - and teach them that most of the times 'less is more'.
Shopping smart should always be in style! I agree! 💕
The rouge rewards tip is amazing thanks Jena I will switch over to the US website as I have NEVER seen $100 reward on the Canadian website and was starting to think I would never get the reward!
Yess!! I haven’t seen it on the Canadian site too but apparently it exists! ☺️
I needed this video cos honestly my collection is so out of hand lol
Haha! Don’t worry you’re not alone ❤️
Hey Jena. I started to work out what the price of the product is per gram for eyeshadows. I think it would be good to have this as part of reviews. I worked out the ABH Riveria is between $8 to $6.50 per gram ($AUS) depending if you purchase it for $82 or $69.50. You hardly get any product in the new ABH palette. Natasha Denona is around $5 per gram but she put in 2.5grams per pan. However, can you use that much before the shelf life of product expires? if not wasting money. ABH is only 0.74 grams per pan that is way above price per gram of Tarte and Urban decay. Just an idea for future videos.
Great idea! I’ll try to remember that :) thank you! 💕
I have recently stopped watching channels that only discuss drugstore makeup. . I just have had no luck with drugstore cosmetics. I have found I will buy drugstore products because they are recommended “dupes” but then I have decluttered all of it. I realize I have been wasting money trying to find cheaper makeup. I guess I felt I needed to find something in that drugstore so I would not be a snob. So, I will buy the high end or luxury product and will enjoy it and will no longer search for that “dupe”. I wasted hundreds of dollars last year in the drugstore. Thanks for sharing your tips!
That’s awesome Lisa! I say, be proud of your high end makeup! I always am. If people call me a snob, they just don’t understand the love lol 💕
I like to order dupes online but there are certain brands just like with high end makeup, that speak to me. I never try to buy drugstore makeup from like for example Maybelline if you buy 2 lipsticks you can buy 1 MAC it’s not spending smart for me. Why am I still thinking this way? It’s easy to pile in $40 or $50 from the drugstore in ur cart when you can buy one or maybe 2, good things from high end that will serve you better unless they are from your regular dupe brands you trust. I’m glad Jena shared this info.
Thank you so much for your tips. In my country make up is very expensive i wait for offers or buy drugstore make up. Love you 😙😙😙
Thanks for watching as always!! You’re the best! ☺️
@@JenaFroese love you 😘😘
I think this is an important message when you love makeup and can get caught up in the consumerism of the industry. I have yet to see the 100 dollar rouge reward though I have checked the US site before. At least I know it exists!
Thanks Jen! Yes the infamous rouge reward supposedly exists on the Canada site.. but it’s a ghost or something because I never see it! 😂💕
I just saw a ghost! They just had the 100 dollar Sephora reward on both the US AND Canadian site. I ordered the one off the US site as it’s worth more and I live near the border. Yeah!
Hi Jena, love this series of videos! You look beautiful.
Thank you Gia ❤️
Great suggestions! I was in Marshall's and saw abh modern renaissance for 20usd but I restrained because I just bought 2 from the ulta sale ! I was very proud of myself but the temptation is real! Lol! Can u list some of your trusted youtubers?TIA
Yay! Thank you Ilena! 💕 great job! Hmm I think that’s a great idea for a video maybe! 💕
ilena roberts I stopped myself from buying the chocolate gold palette a few days ago cause I already have so many eyeshadows I love at home ❤️
During the sale Ipick up one foundation because i buy 2 a year, eye makeup remover and 1 lip balm/lipstick, and bday gifts for my sister that loves sephora;, i only buy my skin care during sales. I couldnt find a palette in sephora that called my name so i am passing. I also lilke the sephora favorites on sale because i get to try nee stuff in an already bundle price + discount
Guess my saying " the limit does not exist in makeup " for me should be Re evaluated 😂😂 I did try some of your first tips from part 1 on my splurge shopping this month. Most of the stuff I bought was from brands I know n love so it counts right??🤣
It counts!! Lol ❤️
Woohoo yay!! Lol thanks💖
Thank you for all the great tips❤️
Thanks for watching! ☺️
Great video! Thanks so much💖 And I love you're Canadian so your suggestions are easy for me to follow. Not that they are generally Nation-specific, but it does help😊😊
Yay!! Canadians are the best 💕 haha thank you Michelle ☺️
Hey Jena, I’m Canadian like yourself and was wondering about the Rouge Reward. I followed your tip about redeeming on the US site. I was able to snag one, but I’m just wondering if I can order off the American site to my Canadian address? I really want the Mothership V palette but not for $170 CAD!
Hey Nicky! You can use the reward for either site, but unfortunately you need a US shipping address for the US site. You can order the rouge reward from the US site because it doesn’t require a shipping address, but any products you order unfortunately you need one 😢
Ah ok thanks for letting me know!
Now a new subscriber
Yay!! Thank you ❤️
These are really good tips and reminders especially with the Sephora sale coming up soon! Even though I just splurged on the ND biba palette recently! Lol! It’s easy for me to follow you b/c we have the same skin type and makeup style! I love your makeup today, so pretty! Love your channel! ❤️
Yay!! I hope you’re loving the Biba palette! 💕 thank you so much Melissa! That is so sweet 💕
Jena Froese ...I haven’t had a chance to try it yet, I just got it in the mail. The day it released I was like, ok no I’m not buying it haha! Then a few days passed and I caved. I’ll let you know what I think of it. Hopefully it’s as pretty on the eyes as it is in the palette! 👍
Yes! I hope so too! I’ve been hearing great things so keep me posted :)
Great tips ☺☺
Thank you girl! ❤️
Love this advice! 💄🎨
Thank you! 💕
