    Such a beautiful bag and love that you pre-recorded so much, I don't know many other RUclipsrs that take the time to do that, and your subscribers love you for it!

    I am so impressed with you that you pre filmed videos before you went on vacation! So many other RUclipsrs would just not bother posting for two weeks. I loved you before, but I have so much respect for you now. Seriously!
    Also, on a beauty related note, I need those little bite beauty lipsticks.. they are PERFECT for travel!! & I love that chrome makeup geek travel palette!
    Great video from you :)

    the sonia kashuk beauty organizer bag is an almost exact dupe for this and comes in alot of beautiful prints

    I love how you admit that velour is expensive!! I have heard some youtubers say that they're not expensive... Smh

    • @kelseybrown4217
      @kelseybrown4217 10 лет назад +3

      Agreed I splurged and bought three pairs after hearing all the you tubers constantly talking about them. Idk what it is but they are super intense (I don't wear lashes too often) and I just felt like a circus act wearing them lol. Plus they come pretty long so I have to cut them and I feel like that makes them look a lot different on your eyes. They were just disappointing :/

    • @KathleenLights
      @KathleenLights  10 лет назад +42

      They are! I have used this pair twice and I already wanted to get rid of them and I spent like over 30 bucks!!! NOT WORTH IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @elizabethtonsich1234

    • @litlprayer
      @litlprayer 10 лет назад +5

    @keating_4_ever 9 лет назад

    You're the second person I've seen on youtube talk about this makeup bag and I actually really like the concept behind it. I like the sturdiness and how it zips shut with the added security that I know I can pack all my makeup in one place!

  • @IzChi
    @IzChi 9 лет назад +77

    if you guys want this bag but find it too expensive, get the NYX large double zipper makeup bag! its very similar and only $15.

    • @CarterSams

    • @IzChi

      Jessica Sinn no its not a hard shell, but i find that its still really protective, ive brought mine on a few trips and never had any issues with broken makeup or anything like that!

    I really love that you actually value money - if something is expensive you want to use it as much as you can, not just throw it in your drawer...

  • @mango_T463
    @mango_T463 10 лет назад +1

    The fact that Danny encouraged her to buy an expensive makeup bag (and with good logic to back it up) is so wonderful! Usually guys wouldn't want to spend so much money (much less on makeup related stuff) so it's so refreshing to see that, indeed, this stereotype has been proven wrong at least once.

    @allanastevenson1753 10 лет назад +8

    Just FYI, I find that when I travel with my Makeup Forever HD foundation, or the HD primer, the lid always pops off and then the product squirts all over the place. I always use regular scotch tape to tape the lid on and it is a life saver. :)

    • @KathleenLights
      @KathleenLights  10 лет назад +12

      That's a good idea! I usually always tape my lids shut too!

  • @cassidyflatness97
    @cassidyflatness97 8 лет назад +1

    As soon as you said you were only going to take one foundation I said in my head, "She's going to take the makeup forever, it is her favorite." AND THEN YOU SAID YOU HAD NEVER TRIED IT. Oh my I just saw the beginning of a lovely relationship right before my very eyes.

    I really love that you put up so many videos weekly, even when you're out of town. Most youtubers just don't bother with uploading videos when they're gone, and they don't tell you until they've returned! Almost like an excuse.
    You're the best! I've been a fan since before you had 100k subscribers :)

  • @gel5037
    @gel5037 9 лет назад

    I love your videos, KathleenLights !!! Your makeup looks so natural, you are so pretty and you speak very nicely and you seem like a genuinely nice person.
    My favorites are when you do makeup looks using drugstore makeup, very useful for people like me who are in a budget! You are one of the very few vloggers where I actually consider buying the products being reviewed/used. I have a small notebook now where I list down the products I would like to try, and I started doing so when I discovered your channel.
    Btw I am from the Philippines and Im thankful most of the makeup you mention are available here (like E.l.f & Nyx)
    This is sounding like a very fanatic comment but yeah, I like you so much! :)

      @midlifemakeupcrisis4690 10 лет назад

      Omg yes! I bought it recently and couldn't believe I hadn't seen anyone talk about it. It's perfect! I've repotted my fav shadows, blush, contour, highlighter, lipstick pans, bronzer, fixing powder into small pans.I often go away for a weekend and this practically fits everything I need for my face in it even some of my pencils and brushes fit in it. It's AWESOME!!

    The gun metal to go palette isnt available anymore. does anyone know where i can get something similar?

    • @tlizspear
      @tlizspear 9 лет назад +7

      You could always DIY it and just purchase a metal tin, I have a few pencil tins that I like to use. Plenty sturdy and takes up no more space than a naked palette. I cut magnetic sheets to size and glued them to the insides of the tins so that I can use any makeup with a metal back, without the hassle of putting magnets on each one. Your comment is a few months old, but hopefully I wasn't too late to help :)

    Hey Kathleen! I have been thinking about this ever since your video came out. I couldn't find it online when your video first came out but I went back to your video today to watch it yet again. I googled it again and found one! Thank you so much for this video :)

    I love your videos, especially your tips. I have been looking for this portfolio for a while now. I know it was a limited addition, 4 years ago, but I am wondering if you know where I can find it. I was able to find the medium size, but it is not big enough and I would like the large one. There isn't anything like it out there.

    I do a lot of traveling! I stumbled over your video and saw your review on the laura mercier Custom Artist Portfolio...well I could not get it out of my mind. I ordered it and I'm so excited. I can't wait for it to get in!

    Put some hair ties around your z palette so that you know it won't open up and then you always have some hair ties with you :)
