I love the Hourglass foundation personally. For me the trick is using *very* little at first and building it up in thin layers. I also found that it doesn’t really work with a primer when I actually use one (which is once every 4 years or so). I just make sure to really take my time to buff it in and I actually love the end result
I'm not one for spending too much on a skin cream but I decided to splurge and buy the dewy skin cream from Tatcha. I love it so so much. I also only use it in the morning because it just makes my skin look so moisturized for the day. This will be a constant repurchase for me.
The Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer is amazing. I have rosacea and dry skin. It’s light coverage , for me it’s enough to tone down the redness. It’s a great alternative to foundation.
Oooh! I'm gonna have to definitely give it a go. I have a lot of redness, though mine has gotten a smidge better from sticking to my skincare routine. But that's basically all I want in a base product. To cover up the bit of redness I have.
Yes I pay $42 for my esteelauder doubleware and an extra $10 for a pump. And it's a super crappy, cheap plastic pump. Doesnt even have a full cap. It comes with a tiny cheap cap that clips on the tip of the pump; small as a freaking dime.
I love your strawberry earrings and fresh/glowy makeup look in this video Jessica!! So spring-y and gorgeous :) Of course I'm excited to see what your recommendations are as well but I had to comment about those other things right of the bat lol; you're stunning!
Have you tried the CLEAN Reserve perfumes from Sephora?? They’re sooooo good and non offensive. I have allergies and lots of perfumes bother me (even tho I love perfumes). So my two favorite from the CLEAN Reserves are the acqua neroli and clean skin. Anyone reading this, please smell them and get some samples. There’s other smells also... you will not regret it! Chanel coco mademoiselle is so strong for me!
Word to the wise about the IT Cosmetics fair shade, it is REALLY yellow undertoned. I bought it and looked a human lemon. Please go swatch it before you buy it and get a sample. I didn't and I regretted it so much. Especially because it oxidizes and darkens the longer you wear it. It is NOT for pale people.
The Laura Mercier Tinted balm is THE best thing in the world! I am 40 with fine lines and wrinkles and it can give you some coverage but you can also build it up. It's Dewy and WONDERFUL.
I am 30 weeks with an extremely active baby girl. When I say she moves and kicks NONSTOP I mean NONSTOP, nothing calms her down, until I started realizing when I watch your videos she always settles. I rest my phone against my belly so it makes sense. At first I thought I was a coincidence but I truly think it is your voice! So thank you, for giving a very tired mom some relief from the constant jabs to the ribs:) She’s going to come out of the womb with extensive makeup knowledge thanks to you!
Dr bronners soap bar cleans brushes and sponges WEIRDLY well and SO fast- I’ve used it for years! The blue one! Not to be dramatic butttt- it’s life changing!
In regards to the CT eyes to mesmerize, I have oily eyelids and love them so much! I just make sure to use a clear eye primer and don’t set it. Even though it does wear off some, it doesn’t crease much at all and wears all day. So pretty and my new favorite everyday eyeshadow. Would highly recommend.
I’ve used the Hourglass Vanish Liquid Foundation and I’m someone with Combo skin. I’m oily in my T-Zone but more dry in my complexion. I tend to apply either the Milk Hydro Grip, Bobbi Brown Face Base or even MAC Comfort Crème (something moisturizing) as a Primer/Base. I take one pump on the back of my hand and dot small amount of foundation on each section of face and buff it into the skin in light layers. I think what really helps this foundation blend better is warming it up with your fingers, using a brush when applying it and finishing it off with a sponge.
a tip for the fenty beauty match sticks, I usually warm up the product on the back of my hand before I draw onto my face and blend out with a sponge, or run a brush onto the tube, before applying to my face.
Hi Jess! I love these recommendation and what to avoid videos, they are very helpful. I love Ebates too, free money and they really don’t want your personal info.
Yass so glad you mentioned soft glam! LOVE the colors of that palette! I’d have to disagree on how well it blends though. Morphe has a great range of eyeshadows and I feel like they blend way better, I own the 350 palette and it’s amazing! But the colors in soft glam are so worth it and if you have the extra time to blend it together, they are beautiful:)
You would love Sephora’s Pro Collection brushes #47 (foundation) and #71 (concealer). They are both tapered on one side to mimic fingers for a natural and medium finish. They’re amazing!
Yeah you definitely have that deeper hazel-green color! My son has them too and no one realizes it unless they’re close to his face or he’s in the sunlight. That green/gray shadow you were wanting is a must! I feel like it will compliment your eye color really well.
Hi Jessie, I have the contour stick from Fenty in Amber. I have found that if you use the Real Techniques contour brush (the pink one) to blend it out, it blends beautifully. Other brushes don't work as well, but try it and hopefully that helps.
Coco Mademoiselle is my favorite, too. Try it in the travel dispenser. It's super cool, keeps the perfume in the dark, and you get two extra refills. It's a good deal.
Love the Nars liquid blush. A little goes a long way. I pump a SMALL amount on the back of my hand, dot a small amount on my cheek and use a stippling brush to blend. Thanks for the video.
Loving your vanity! I was so over the Alex drawer super cluttered makeup collection before it even started. I am so in love with Sam Ravandahl and all her friends’ aesthetic. I like how most makeup youtubers are moving in that direction also.
Jessica, I love your enthusiasm and thank you for mentioning the use of Ebates and their birthday in May when they award high cash back! I am showing my age with its level of cynicism, but I 😆 when people get so excited over 15-20% off. Makeup brands have us conditioned to spend $ without thinking and to believe 15-20%off is a HUGE DEAL, which it really isn’t. I realize it is better than nothing. Stacking the savings up with Ebates, makes the Sephora sale more worthwhile IMHO.
The fenty stix are not the creamiest things but I found that it works best by taking a brush ( I use a small contour brush) directly to the product and then straight to face. I also didn't enjoy the look of that cooler contour color so I went up to the shade mocha instead. I apply just the smallest amount to the brush because it's for deep skin and it gives me a warmer bronzier look.
I’m not sure if you’ve ever tried this but as an alternative to the tatcha dewy skin cream you might loveeee the Kiehls ultra facial moisturizer , not the one in the tub, the one in the bottle. It’s soooo moisturising and leaves an instant dewy look like you’re describing with the tatcha one , I’ve never tried the tatcha one but the description of it sounds exactly like the effect the kiehls one gives me
i loooove the fenty match stick for contouring it’s really good for pale skin, i use a really dense brush to blend it out so if youre having trouble blending maybe try that
you’re looking like actual perfection in this video. side note: pretty much any product that is a gloss, if you’re using it on the eyelid, it’s going to crease. that’s just the nature of the formula. some people can vibe with that worn in, messy eye - but ultimately the perfect glossy eye is only achievable in photos and for very short periods of time.
I have one matchstix from fenty, but it's a blush. That's how I use it anyway, but it's a shimmer and it blends out well for me. I would say all of the contour and bronze ones seemed to be a dryer formula to me. I think the one I have is called sinnamon. I keep looking at the rest though and have never been drawn to the others.
I swear the Milk Makeup bronzer is probably my most used makeup product ever. I have tons of makeup but I use that almost every day, either alone or under a powder bronzer to help the longevity. Such an amazing product. I'm actually going to invest in skin care for my sephora purchase this weekend :)
Where I work you can get the Take the Day Off Cleansing Balm for about $14! Idk where you live but our stores are usually at Premium Outlets and Tanger Outlets.
I really wanna try that CT cream shadow. I have a revlons version of it. It’s more glittery than pigmented. I thought I loved those but the CT ones look so much better.
Well now I need to place second order ❤️😂 I also didn't like the Hourglass foundation at all and my skin is combination. It sat on my skin too and made it look really dehydrated!
@@itsjessicabraun We really have similar taste because I love so many of the products you mentioned and you convinced me to get the ABH dip brow gel! I had heard mixed reviews and was going to skip it... back it goes in my basket 😂
I love the Fenty stick in Amber. It is the only way I contour, I am maybe a tish lighter then you. I literally do like Kevin Aucoin/Mario type contour and just use a beauty blender to blend out. It is definitely too grey for bronzer. I haven’t tried the other colors though. I love the Sephora blushes and need to try the milk makeup bronzer! Great video
Jessica, my husband just walked up the stairs and said "Is that Jessica? OMG she is always in our house, I'm going to have to start having her pay rent." LOL! I watch your channel so much now that he recognizes your voice. Also, after watching your videos I picked up the Charlotte Tillbury Eyes to Mesmerize in Marie Antoinette and in Jean. I love them both!!
I've learned your makeup tastes are similar to mine so I love hearing your recommendations! I got the Sultry palette recently after remembering how much you raved about it and I'm so in love.
omg THANK YOU for talking about the Sephora pro brushes so much. I finally got some yesterday and they are absolutely amazing. I am so happy- I don't feel like I got duped to buy some morphe brushes that I just use because I have so many. you're one of my favs :) thanks girl! literally cannot wait to get more already haha
Please do a dedicated video on all of your fav Sephora brushes. Plz include any good enough dupes for these brushes, if available, as well in that video
Im obviously not Jessica, but i love, love, love the Sephora Collection brushes. I think I have them all, but the stippling ones. The 56 that she uses for concealer I use to set my undereye area with powder. Works great. My favorite eyeshadow brushes are 14, 15, and 18. I have multiple of each. I can't recommend them more.
If you love the Charlotte Tilbury contour wand, you should try out Beauty Pie. I use their contour wand every day. They have a warmer one and a cooler one. I'm pretty cool and the cooler one is perfect for my skin tone for both warming up my skin and giving some definition. It is super cheap and almost identical to Charlotte Tilbury. Also, if you do look it up, do not pass by their One Powder Wonder. I literally have two backups as I've panned two already. For dry skin, it is a must have. Also, their lip products, minus the satin finish ones, are to die for. They smell like MAC lipsticks and are just as good, if not better. I have a ton of makeup, like we all probably do, and I use those Beauty Pie products on a daily basis, as well as their cleansing products.
Milk bronzer is sold out. I'm so bummed because I have been SEARCHING for a good cream bronzer/contour and cream blush. I actually ordered the Milk blush yesterday, so was glad to hear you like it...but now am double bummed about the contour/bronzer. 😢
I love the Hourglass Vanish Liquid Foundation, the first time I Used it I didn’t though. I have to use a very Moisturizing moisturizer before I use the foundation and using anymore than half a pump looks cakey. You also have to blend it out in sections instead of applying it to your whole face at once because it stays where you put it. It definitely has a learning curve but with how glassy and beautiful it makes my skin look, and how little product you have to use, it’s worth it.
I have desert dry skin and have been using the tatcha dewy skin cream and what a difference! It's pricy I KNOW, BUT I have tried so many different creams and they didn't work, I just got more texture...The Dewey skin cream is worth it and lasts awhile because you don't need much🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
The last i bought the mini nars tinted mosturizer...it actually comes out cheaper than the full size....if u were to buy the full size, buy 2 smaller ones instead.
Jessica I loved this video so so much. You are so passionate about what you love, I LOVE THAT! I know you mean it when you say it's good because i know you wouldn't waste your money on it. Keep making those faces I was smiling the entire video! I hope to meet you run into you somewhere! You are the best!
I love that you had some unique products/brands to recommend! I also liked that you included what you were going to buy as well as what to avoid. Very informative!
If you don’t want your concealer to crease or look kind of dry, try to use the tiniest, tiniest drop of any oil under your eyes before you put on your concealer, I got this tip from Wayne Goss and I was like awe! When I tried it. It works and I’m in my 50’s I’m so happy I no longer have dry under eye or creases 👍🏻
I just bought 4 of their brushes OH my gosh! AMAZING. My foundation blended today and is flawless. I use the 56 for my foundation just love them. I am slowly investing in them too!
Thanks for the recommendation as always. It cosmetics has a few new shades in the cc cream. I wear the fair light now because light was too dark for me except if I had fake Tanner on.
Hi Jessica I luv ur videos and ur recommendations, I wish you also give recommendations on the brand Bobbi Brown, for this Sephora sale I saw u didn’t recommend the shiseido cotton, are u still using them? If yes can you pls also recommend how do u storage them in ur bathroom, I like them but I lived in Canada I am having a hard time to find a nice container usually are round not square. Thanks keep the good videos 🥰🥰
The CoverFX dewy primer is a dry skin girl‘s dream 😍 i decluttered all my other primers, it’s the only one I kept! No more dry patches or cakey-ness cause of the desert my skin is! On me the dewy primer is just a nice moisturizing primer that also smoothes my skin 😍😍😍 when I put the Hourglass Vanish Stick foundation over it (this one is quite dry), I don’t even have to powder 😅 so if your are dry af consider getting the dewy primer from CoverFX 😍😍😍
I really like milk products! I have the highlighter stick I love how it melts into the skin giving a natural looking glow ( I’m 42 lol ) I’ll have to try that bronzer out 💞
From high end mascaras my recent favorite has been Lancome Monsieur Big Waterproof version. I tried it before I met my friend casually in a coffee place during day time, and I felt almost embarrased about my huge doll lashes😳😄 They looked so amazing as if I would be having falsies. The lashes were curled before applying the mascara and the result was well worth for a hot date. Too bad that it wasn't the nature of my appointment that day😬 I have also used the Lancome Hypnose waterproof one, but I think the MonBig was cheaper and bigger tube, but both are good. MonBig has maybe thinner consistency but the wand is quite big as the name suggests. It was perfect for my invisible colored and straight lashes.
Hey Jess I live your videos. My experience with the Fenty match Stix was different. I got the shade Cinnamon (spelled weird) in a mini with the powder bronzer. And it looks red swatched, but it's actually a nice bronzer and blends well with a sponge after detached in my hand. I then drag my sponge through the swatch and dab it on my cheek.
Hey! Do you have a cheaper dupe for the Charlotte Tilbury cream shadow in the color that you have? I love the way it looks on you, but I just can’t spend that money in a single shadow!😿
Well... cream products is not my thing, I guess! What I want to try is the Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Finishing Powder Medium (all over face) and Dark (bronzer) tone.
Jess you are a mindreader! I was also thinking today that I'd buy IT CC in Fair, we have very close skin tones but my skin is ruddier than yours. I went on the Cult Beauty site and found shades Fair and Fair-Light. Let me know which shades you try and if they are neutral enough for you (Everything looks too pink or too yellow on me).
Such cute fun earrings for Summer! I'll look for them on my next Target run~ I have to look through some of your past videos because I'm looking for a good BB cream.
I love the Hourglass foundation!!! I’m on my second bottle! But I have super oily skin and it only loves the hourglass veil primer. I used it with the Tatcha primer and it didn’t wear well.
Love these kind of videos, but especially from you! I love how you had the recommendations and your shopping list. And it’s always helpful to know what to avoid. I just went shopping this morning but I feel like I need to do some more know long your recommendations.
I have IT cosmetics cc creams in shades fair and light and mix the two. You definitely need to get fair because your skin tone is same or lighter than mine.
I love Sephora brushes too, and received the #41 Drawing Shadow brush as a gift two years ago. I use it every single day. I hope you love it as much as I do. It's extremely versatile:)
If you have brown-green hazel eyes I recommend Veruschka! I too have brown-green hazel eyes and love the way it brings out the green in my eyes. Also thanks for the recommendation I just put Marie Antoinette in my cart, LOL.
Yes get the shade fair in the IT CC cream! I am the EXACT shade as you in literally every foundation (i buy most of my makeup off your recs and i get my shades off yours haha) and light was too dark for me and fair is perfect! 😍
Hi Jess would love if you could find a dupe for the milk makeup bronzer, we can’t get milk in Australia unfortunately.. love your videos and vlogs with Tyler and Gigi! :)
Omg i love sephora pro brushes 2 you so need to pick up there feather weight line powder brush its 40 and the best and the baby size of that one is my favorite as well
3:05 what i recommend
17:58 what I’m buying
24:16 what I wouldn’t buy
Nelly T thank you!! I hate when there aren’t time stamps

try it cosmetics its great for rosacea and they have all kinds of formulas you might like for dry skin
Am I the only one that thinks it’s unfair for expensive brands to charge for a pump?
Nars does it, Mac does it, I’m sure other companies do it too.
Yes I pay $42 for my esteelauder doubleware and an extra $10 for a pump. And it's a super crappy, cheap plastic pump. Doesnt even have a full cap. It comes with a tiny cheap cap that clips on the tip of the pump; small as a freaking dime.
I think that's so crazy. My $10 revlon foundation has a pump so I'm shocked expensive brands don't as well
I love your strawberry earrings and fresh/glowy makeup look in this video Jessica!! So spring-y and gorgeous :) Of course I'm excited to see what your recommendations are as well but I had to comment about those other things right of the bat lol; you're stunning!
Thanks girl!!! ❤️😍❤️💕
Two of my favorite RUclipsrs💕💕💕
I'm so glad you enjoy both of our videos, thank you!! ^_^
I just got my first ebates check! It was only like $5, but that basically means I saved $5 on whatever I purchased!
Have you tried the CLEAN Reserve perfumes from Sephora?? They’re sooooo good and non offensive. I have allergies and lots of perfumes bother me (even tho I love perfumes). So my two favorite from the CLEAN Reserves are the acqua neroli and clean skin. Anyone reading this, please smell them and get some samples. There’s other smells also... you will not regret it! Chanel coco mademoiselle is so strong for me!
Just discovered aqua neroli and loving it!
clean skin is my HOLY GRAIL! it’s incredible and doesn’t give me migraines like almost every other perfume!
I love them. Favorites are the aqua neroli, warm cotton , and blossom, and you can create your own by mixing them.
Get the fair-light in the it cosmetics CC! We wear the same shades in most foundations and it’s a perfect match for me.
Word to the wise about the IT Cosmetics fair shade, it is REALLY yellow undertoned. I bought it and looked a human lemon. Please go swatch it before you buy it and get a sample. I didn't and I regretted it so much. Especially because it oxidizes and darkens the longer you wear it. It is NOT for pale people.
I did the same :( even the light one is yellow in my opinion
@@IDEK-e7c yeah i was PISSED. Because my local stores didn't have it so I had to order online and pay shipping.
The Laura Mercier Tinted balm is THE best thing in the world! I am 40 with fine lines and wrinkles and it can give you some coverage but you can also build it up. It's Dewy and WONDERFUL.
Girl, this lighting is amazing.
My hubby walked into the room and said the exact same thing!!
I am 30 weeks with an extremely active baby girl. When I say she moves and kicks NONSTOP I mean NONSTOP, nothing calms her down, until I started realizing when I watch your videos she always settles.

The sultry palette is so underrated it's the BEST ABH palette, glad you mentioned it
Thank you for putting the prices in the comments! That is so helpful and most youtubers don’t and I have to click the link if I miss it in the video’
The happy wiggle for the Kosås blush/highlight combo was the best!
I’ve used the Hourglass Vanish Liquid Foundation and I’m someone with Combo skin. I’m oily in my T-Zone but more dry in my complexion. I tend to apply either the Milk Hydro Grip, Bobbi Brown Face Base or even MAC Comfort Crème (something moisturizing) as a Primer/Base. I take one pump on the back of my hand and dot small amount of foundation on each section of face and buff it into the skin in light layers. I think what really helps this foundation blend better is warming it up with your fingers, using a brush when applying it and finishing it off with a sponge.
I have Varushka. It’s a stunning eye ream. You can build it up too. I find that once it’s set, nothing moves it off.
The clarity and lighting in this video is your best yet ❤️❤️❤️
a tip for the fenty beauty match sticks, I usually warm up the product on the back of my hand before I draw onto my face and blend out with a sponge, or run a brush onto the tube, before applying to my face.

You and Samantha March have talked me into the Milk makeup bronzer.
I use the fenty matchstick in amber as contour - I think its great, but I have oily to normal skin. So the natural oils create a nice texture.
if you have AMEX use ebates! you can get points instead of cash back and its a better return!
Coco Mademoiselle is my favorite, too. Try it in the travel dispenser. It's super cool, keeps the perfume in the dark, and you get two extra refills. It's a good deal.
Love the Nars liquid blush. A little goes a long way. I pump a SMALL amount on the back of my hand, dot a small amount on my cheek and use a stippling brush to blend. Thanks for the video.
Those earrings are so cute! They're not radishes, but they remind me of Luna Lovegood all the same. Great video as always Jess!

I prefer the farmacy green clean over the Clinique take the day off hands down. Works so much better for me and feels so much better on the skin.
I’ve had the Sephora powder brush for many years. It is my favorite brush, it is super soft and has held up so well.

The 56 that she uses for concealer I use to set my undereye area with powder. Works great. My favorite eyeshadow brushes are 14, 15, and 18. I have multiple of each. I can't recommend them more.
If you love the Charlotte Tilbury contour wand, you should try out Beauty Pie. I use their contour wand every day. They have a warmer one and a cooler one. I'm pretty cool and the cooler one is perfect for my skin tone for both warming up my skin and giving some definition. It is super cheap and almost identical to Charlotte Tilbury. Also, if you do look it up, do not pass by their One Powder Wonder. I literally have two backups as I've panned two already. For dry skin, it is a must have. Also, their lip products, minus the satin finish ones, are to die for. They smell like MAC lipsticks and are just as good, if not better. I have a ton of makeup, like we all probably do, and I use those Beauty Pie products on a daily basis, as well as their cleansing products.
Milk bronzer is sold out. I'm so bummed because I have been SEARCHING for a good cream bronzer/contour and cream blush. I actually ordered the Milk blush yesterday, so was glad to hear you like it...but now am double bummed about the contour/bronzer. 😢
I love the Hourglass Vanish Liquid Foundation, the first time I Used it I didn’t though. I have to use a very Moisturizing moisturizer before I use the foundation and using anymore than half a pump looks cakey. You also have to blend it out in sections instead of applying it to your whole face at once because it stays where you put it.
It definitely has a learning curve but with how glassy and beautiful it makes my skin look, and how little product you have to use, it’s worth it.
I have desert dry skin and have been using the tatcha dewy skin cream and what a difference! It's pricy I KNOW, BUT I have tried so many different creams and they didn't work, I just got more texture...The Dewey skin cream is worth it and lasts awhile because you don't need much🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
The last i bought the mini nars tinted mosturizer...it actually comes out cheaper than the full size....if u were to buy the full size, buy 2 smaller ones instead.
Jessica I loved this video so so much. You are so passionate about what you love, I LOVE THAT! I know you mean it when you say it's good because i know you wouldn't waste your money on it. Keep making those faces I was smiling the entire video! I hope to meet you run into you somewhere! You are the best!
I love that you had some unique products/brands to recommend! I also liked that you included what you were going to buy as well as what to avoid. Very informative!
If you don’t want your concealer to crease or look kind of dry, try to use the tiniest, tiniest drop of any oil under your eyes before you put on your concealer, I got this tip from Wayne Goss and I was like awe! When I tried it. It works and I’m in my 50’s I’m so happy I no longer have dry under eye or creases 👍🏻
neysa rodriguez great tip!
I just bought 4 of their brushes OH my gosh! AMAZING. My foundation blended today and is flawless. I use the 56 for my foundation just love them. I am slowly investing in them too!
Thanks for the recommendation as always. It cosmetics has a few new shades in the cc cream. I wear the fair light now because light was too dark for me except if I had fake Tanner on.
Hi Jessica I luv ur videos and ur recommendations, I wish you also give recommendations on the brand Bobbi Brown, for this Sephora sale I saw u didn’t recommend the shiseido cotton, are u still using them? If yes can you pls also recommend how do u storage them in ur bathroom, I like them but I lived in Canada I am having a hard time to find a nice container usually are round not square. Thanks keep the good videos 🥰🥰
The CoverFX dewy primer is a dry skin girl‘s dream 😍 i decluttered all my other primers, it’s the only one I kept! No more dry patches or cakey-ness cause of the desert my skin is! On me the dewy primer is just a nice moisturizing primer that also smoothes my skin 😍😍😍 when I put the Hourglass Vanish Stick foundation over it (this one is quite dry), I don’t even have to powder 😅 so if your are dry af consider getting the dewy primer from CoverFX 😍😍😍
Ok 👌🏼 u totally talked me into the Laneiege lip balm ☺️ I use the sleeping mask every night and I love it
I really like milk products!
I have the highlighter stick
I love how it melts into the skin giving a natural looking glow ( I’m 42 lol )
I’ll have to try that bronzer out 💞
That ABH palette looks so pretty 😫😫😫
I wish I needed it 🤣
From high end mascaras my recent favorite has been Lancome Monsieur Big Waterproof version. I tried it before I met my friend casually in a coffee place during day time, and I felt almost embarrased about my huge doll lashes😳😄 They looked so amazing as if I would be having falsies. The lashes were curled before applying the mascara and the result was well worth for a hot date. Too bad that it wasn't the nature of my appointment that day😬 I have also used the Lancome Hypnose waterproof one, but I think the MonBig was cheaper and bigger tube, but both are good. MonBig has maybe thinner consistency but the wand is quite big as the name suggests. It was perfect for my invisible colored and straight lashes.
I love the Laneige balms! I picked up the peach and the original pink when they first launched because I was too excited to wait for this sale 🙈
Al-anoude Almghrabi I definitely want to try that!
Hey Jess I live your videos. My experience with the Fenty match Stix was different. I got the shade Cinnamon (spelled weird) in a mini with the powder bronzer. And it looks red swatched, but it's actually a nice bronzer and blends well with a sponge after detached in my hand. I then drag my sponge through the swatch and dab it on my cheek.
I wear the It Cosmetics CC Cream in fair in the winter and mix it with the light shade in the summer.
Hey! Do you have a cheaper dupe for the Charlotte Tilbury cream shadow in the color that you have? I love the way it looks on you, but I just can’t spend that money in a single shadow!😿
Well... cream products is not my thing, I guess! What I want to try is the Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Finishing Powder Medium (all over face) and Dark (bronzer) tone.
Jess you are a mindreader! I was also thinking today that I'd buy IT CC in Fair, we have very close skin tones but my skin is ruddier than yours. I went on the Cult Beauty site and found shades Fair and Fair-Light. Let me know which shades you try and if they are neutral enough for you (Everything looks too pink or too yellow on me).
Such cute fun earrings for Summer! I'll look for them on my next Target run~ I have to look through some of your past videos because I'm looking for a good BB cream.
I love the Hourglass foundation!!! I’m on my second bottle! But I have super oily skin and it only loves the hourglass veil primer. I used it with the Tatcha primer and it didn’t wear well.
Try fair light in the cc cream. I did that because the light was too dark for me.
I ordered Marie Antoinette because of you this morning 😊
I use the mini size of the laura mercier tinted moisturizer and it will last you for a while, honestly thinks its better to get the mini vs full size!
Love these kind of videos, but especially from you! I love how you had the recommendations and your shopping list. And it’s always helpful to know what to avoid. I just went shopping this morning but I feel like I need to do some more know long your recommendations.
You should try the No7cleansing balm. Less than $10 at target and it’s a complete dupe for the Clinique take the day off cleansing balm.
Deb Leigh thanks for the tip will have to check that out!
So happy about the new lighting, you looked so greyish before 😬
I have IT cosmetics cc creams in shades fair and light and mix the two. You definitely need to get fair because your skin tone is same or lighter than mine.
I really love your earrings please tell me were you got them! They are so cute
Ummm your face is extra GORGEOUS in this video! Idk if it's different make up or the lighting but wow!! 😍
I love Sephora brushes too, and received the #41 Drawing Shadow brush as a gift two years ago. I use it every single day. I hope you love it as much as I do. It's extremely versatile:)
I like the clinique cleansing balm too, but i won't repurchase since i found out cleansing balms have microplastics in.
We do have plenty of makeup but is just so pretty!!!💕 For some reason all cream makeup slides off my face.
If you have brown-green hazel eyes I recommend Veruschka! I too have brown-green hazel eyes and love the way it brings out the green in my eyes. Also thanks for the recommendation I just put Marie Antoinette in my cart, LOL.
Yes get the shade fair in the IT CC cream! I am the EXACT shade as you in literally every foundation (i buy most of my makeup off your recs and i get my shades off yours haha) and light was too dark for me and fair is perfect! 😍
I think (hope) that you’re really going to love the liquid NARS blush. Just the tiniest drop will do the job!
You are such a lovely, lovely lady. I live in uk so don't have Sephora but will still watch your recommendations xx
Hi Jess would love if you could find a dupe for the milk makeup bronzer, we can’t get milk in Australia unfortunately.. love your videos and vlogs with Tyler and Gigi! :)
Omg i love sephora pro brushes 2 you so need to pick up there feather weight line powder brush its 40 and the best and the baby size of that one is my favorite as well
