    Samantha March posted a video yesterday and she mentioned a story about a person who said she only continues to watch you on RUclips. I appreciate your videos ❤ you’re just sharing your love of makeup without compromising or trying to take a lot of sponsorships

      Emily is definitely one of the few I have been watching for years. Been watching since way before she had kids.

      I saw that too, I was like “yay, I love watching Emily!”.

  • @Mia444
    @Mia444 10 месяцев назад +2

    My theory is that Bub recognized YOU when he was trying out the perfumes and got it without realizing it was the second time. Very sweet. Happy Birthday, Emily. Been watching you since before the kids came along, so 10 years now.

    I was born in Rockford and lived there until I was 13 years old😮 You have so much appreciation for everything you receive from your family and friends ❤That makes gifting to you so much more special. Your parents raised you with love, obviously, and you love yourself and the ones you surround yourself with. This is the reason I follow you. Have a wonderful Saturday Emily❤

    Happy Birthday! All the delightful little extras that you include in the video description add so much! Love this one: "Disclaimer: These products were gifts - from a human, not a brand." 😄 Thanks for your integrity and honesty. You are still the GOAT for RUclips makeup and beauty related videos!

  • @Allyson6C
    @Allyson6C 10 месяцев назад +1

    I have the shade “dusk“ in that Refy brand. But I apply the liner first then put a little bit of that clear stuff after (lesses more) then apply lipstick or gloss last. I get super longevity when applied in that order.

  • @GenDoyon_2023
    @GenDoyon_2023 10 месяцев назад +1

    I have been wearing the Chanel Eau Tendre for years now and still ❤ that smell, it’s floral and feminine and a go to for me. 😊 Happy belated birthday Emily, glad you’re enjoying your gifts! 😊👌🏻

    I bought the Lancôme gift for myself and it's fantastic. I love the Lancôme rose toner. Great for when I'm dry - which seems to be all the time now. I pour it in my hand and pat it on. Repurchased many times. Happy New Year!

  • @kellysmith5105
    @kellysmith5105 10 месяцев назад +8

    I love to see what people get as gifts or “to me from me”! This was such a fun video, you could tell how excited you were to try it all! I’m from a northern Illinois suburb, named Kelly too! Your sister Pup- Kelly of course is awesome too ( we are near the same age😂)! Happy New Year! Love you! ❤❤❤ ps. I hunt for the coconut jelly belly’s- love those! 😋

    You are always SO fun to watch! I've been following your videos for so many years, almost from the beginning! I'm here recovering from an angiogram in which they found a 7mm brain aneurysm. I will be going into the hospital next week to get this repaired. It's making me a bit nervous, but I know that God will guide the surgeon's hands and all will be well. Your videos are helping me to keep my mind focused on FUN things. Thank you! I love you and your little family. xo

  • @UnpurrfectRobyn
    @UnpurrfectRobyn 10 месяцев назад +2

    I've been using the Tower 28 Mascara recently for the first time as well. I really enjoy it, but I feel like I get about the same effect from the e.l.f. Lash N Roll and I obviously enjoy $6 vs $20. Neither of them flake, smudge or transfer on me.
    Beautiful look as always, Em! I love how excited you are to put on makeup and especially to try new makeup! I relate so much. Makeup is my de-stress, happy, me time.

    So sweet of your loved ones to get you things you love! My friends and family always say “what do you want BESIDES MAKEUP?” because I have enough. 😢 and I’m thinking “but that’s what brings ME joy!” Also…I have a tiny sample of that Chanel perfume and I love it! I want to finish a couple before buying but I think it would be a very pretty spring/summer scent.

    Happy belated birthday! I have been watching you for years. One of my daughters was with us over the holidays and she wanted to watch your videos. She says you are the only one she watches anymore! What I love about watching your videos is that I feel as though I am listening to a friend talk to me about makeup and day to day happenings. There is nothing put on or artificial about you, Emily, and I think that is why so many of us love you and connect with you. Thank you for continuing to stay so genuine!

My birthday is in mid-January, closer to Pup's. I follow both of you on Instagram and have been a long-time RUclips viewer of yours, Em (over 10 years).

    I bought myself the Lancôme set as a present to myself a year ago and I fell in love with the Genefique serum - it lasted me a year!! I asked for it for Christmas this year (she's a pricey gal) and got it, so I was super thankful for that. I think the Lancôme set is good if you're a first-time to the brand like I was. Fun video!! I got a Sephora Gift Card, which I plan to use to restock my Glow Recipe Watermelon Toner but I recently went on a shopping spree at Kohl's Sephora and bought myself a Tower 28 blush in Office Hours, a Valentino perfume in Donna Born in Roma Coral Fantasy Eau de Parfum, a TooFaced Cloud Crush Blush in Velvet Crush, and a mini Sephora 56 brush! I kinda went HAM!! LOL. Have a great weekend!!

    Such a great look! I too have been curious about the glossier foundation. Made me giggle to think your “everyday eye” is only something I would dare to do for a special night out. My everyday is a single shadow look and MAYBE eyeliner. Or no shadow at all, just bronzer in the crease and mascara.
