I"m so glad you are doing this, I feel like youtube makes people hoard and I really like that you actually go through your stuff and toss it or donate it to people who could really use them. And the fact that you are helping other women is really great.
Oh coconut oil is awesome, it's like an all purpose product for me. I use it on my hair to infuse moisture, conditioning my nails, removing my eye makeup which also helps condition lashes. You can cook with it as well.
Hi Christine, i love watching your cleaning out videoz and travel videos, i was very inspired and started out SHopout 2014 this year where i will buy only 10 shopping items like cloths shoes and makeup. Shopout for you! Way to go!
if my husband had a problem with the color of my nail polish.... He'd just have to continue having a problem. I mean who needs approval from a husband about nail polish color.
Thanks girl! I hear you, any gesture of kindness and care really means a lot to them. If I can inject a spark of happiness or a smile into their day I'm thrilled!!
This is so sweet of you to donate all these products to women who don't have access to them normally. I'm sure they will be really happy. It's so important to take care of yourself and feel like a woman and I'm convinced you will make a lot of women happy. I'm really touched by your generosity. The world needs more people like you
I absolutely LOVE that you use as many natural and organic products as you do. In the last 4 years I have become more aware of chemicals in products and have gone the same route as you. I have a 4 year old son and all his products are healthy, and he was the reason I decided to look more into ingredients than I previously had. There are many products I haven't switched to simply because I cannot afford to but I am anti-paraben, sulphate, phosphate, etc.
That truly touches my heart to hear that... I've spent most of my life taking care of my mom who has a mental illness. People just forget about them, as if they no longer matter or maybe they do care but don't know how to handle it. Thank goodness for people like you who do what they can to help.
Thanks! My skin seems to be sensitive to it, the BeautyPedia website states mineral oil and petrolatum don't clog pores and are not considered irritants. But for some reason it does seem to irritate my skin.
i think that someone like you who is lucky to be able to give this stuff to less fortunate, is truely blessed. I wish i could do this. Thank you for sharing this gift giving. I understand those write offs as well.
No worries, there are no dumb questions sweets! It's just a personal goal I set for myself, I've been slowly switching to more natural skincare and body care products. I've found that petroleum based ingredients such as mineral oil appear to clog my pores and make me breakout. Although I've read on the Beauty Pedia website they say it doesn't, but I have to go with my instinct and my bodies reaction. :)
Thank you! Yep I asked them about it when I delivered my clothes and shoes. But I know each location has different rules, so it's always good to get the details beforehand.
To continue on. Not all of them are like that just the majority. I remember when the volunteers brought in boxes of beauty supplies some used a little or not at all, and we all sat on the floor going through them laughing, telling jokes, smelling perfumes,painting nails.. It was really fun, and the highlight of our night. So I cant tell you how much I love how sweet, and giving you are. And I really hope its going straight to those women/children because I remember how much it meant to me.
I'm really glad you did this. I have two children from the foster care system, they are little people, but I remember they came with literally the clothes on their backs. I'm sure it's often the same with older children/women who don't have a permanent home yet. I think this should be a tag video amongst the makeup/beauty product gurus. That would be really cool and a lot of people could benefit.
Thank you for this video. This and your other Spring Cleaning video motivated me to get rid of things in my home I had be holding on for years. These videos have had a huge positive effect on my life. Please keep doing these organization videos. :)
You're in Paia? Right On!! Mana foods is my favorite place to shop for most of my natural skincare. Check with them often, sometimes they just sell out, I know they carry a couple Queen Helene products, they should have the Mint Julep Mask. I believe I saw them on the bottom shelf of the skincare wall. Otherwise Down to Earth in Kahului usually has it in stock.
Thanks! I did make a couple videos quite awhile back where I take you all to work with me. If you go to my channel, search for "Day In The Life: At Work" that's our typical work day. Also on my channel I have my Etsy store link although we've been swamped with work, so I haven't been able to post any new items on Etsy lately. Hopefully soon though! :)
I shop online at Vitacost and also at my local health food stores. I have a few videos planned, updated skin care, sun care, hair care video coming soon! :)
So sweet of you to do this and great that you shared it on YT because it can serve as a reminder for us. Last time I did spring cleaning, I donated to Good Will, but this time I'll follow in your foot steps and donate to a local women's shelter. :-)
This was inspiring I am proud of you for letting go of things that were very expensive to help and make the girls at the shelter feel good. I work in the Mental Health field and to know that there are really caring and sharing people like you out there makes me feel good!
Hi! It's an Essential Home Glass 3 Shelf Vanity Organizer, Nickel Finish. I purchased two at Kmart. They're awesome! I think they have them online as well. Boscia is my favorite skincare brand at Sephora I've used their products for a couple years now. Only recently have I put them on hold to explore other less expensive natural skincare options. I talk a lot about them in my Holy Grail Skin Care Products video. :)
They did! I made sure to ask last time I was there delivering clothes and shoes. Definitely check with your shelters first regarding their donation policy.
I actually thought it felt great, but people kept telling me to stop using it because apparently it contains rough or jagged exfoliants that can damage your skin. I honestly can't confirm if that's fact or not, but it scared me away from it, so now I'm testing a few new scrubs.
I do, the link is on my channel homepage. Although I've been swamped with work just here on Maui and haven't been able to post any items lately but hopefully soon. :)
you are a great example to women of all ages...as you show, there is ALWAYS something that can be done to volunteer your time and give a helping hand...
I hear ya! It's so confusing because on the Beauty Pedia website they say mineral oil and petrolatum doesn't clog pores and is a non-irritant. But I gotta listen to my body and I swear those ingredients clog my pores, petroleum based ingredients do not get along with my skin.
hi!! do u have a nail tutorial. my nails grow but they tend to peel or break at the sides and it is so frustrating. i would love to know what u use on ur nails to keep them healthy strong and growing. :) love ur vids!
I love that you give them to the shelter instead of doing a blog sale or something along those lines. The girls and women at the shelter are definitley going to benefit from it, and maybe it will bring a little beautiful sunshine to their day ;)
This was so inspiring, not only for me to clean up and clean out, but to give someone else some Fun! Thank you for your videos; I enjoy them so much. Susan
Thank you for donating to the shelters. I work with mentally ill teenage girls, and this is what I do also. You would be so surprised on how many parents do not bring their kids toiletries. They just dump of the kid and keep on going. Kids feel so good about themselves when they put on makeup or wash their hair with expensive shampoos and conditioners. It raises their self esteem also.
Good question! Hmm... well I paid $39 for the set but now it's on sale for $23 so that's a much better price. While I like a couple of the face brushes, the eye brushes I do not. I think the company is cool and I've heard they've come out with some great brushes, But these aren't them. My fault for choosing the set I did... but I was determined to have pink brushes lol, Thank goodness for Sedona Lace!!
You are very generous to donate these things! I'm sure these women will be thrilled to get some fun makeup and skin care they might not otherwise have the chance to purchase! You have inspired me. Im going to purge my makeup as well! My husband will be so happy. Lol
It does kind of look like a lot, so I was super happy to downsize. I also save all my skincare boxes to refer back to the ingredients and product info, which makes it look like double the amount lol.
hey there great job-i do that also once a year and pass stuff to my friends or family! did you pre-check at your women helping women shelter?as far as i know they do NOT take pre-used/opend productes at all! hygiene reasons! just wanna let you know maybe at your place that is different. take care!
Oh yeah I hear ya, the length wasn't a problem, these were the "double-up" lashes so they were outrageously thick, lol. Even for me and I love big lashes haha. :)
That means so much to me!! Thank you Michelle! You are a sweetheart! I'm so lucky to have met such wonderful friends on here like you!! Love you girl!!
Hi - 2 questions - what is the tiered item you have your nail polish stored on? I've been looking for a way to store mine and I like the look of that. Also, can you do a product review of Boscia? I see you have a lot of it and you mentioned you like it - I really don't know anything about the line other than the blotting papers (which I really like). Love your videos!
Aww, yep got a receipt. Got to get those write offs whenever possible lol! I have another Spring Cleaning video coming soon...wait I guess this will actually be End Of Summer Cleaning. ;)
your stuff, all the cupboards are so neat, i appreciate and actually envy that! how do you clean your make up brushes by the way? and which essie's are you giving?
Hey Christine :) was just wondering what you thought of the bare minerals eyeshadows... they just came out here in Australia and are double the price compared to America but im willig to pay if they are good !! Let me know xoxoxoxoxo
6:10 you said the clean and clear scrub was nice, why are you getting rid of it? I just want to know because I used to use it but I never repurchased because I forgot and I've been thinking about getting it again
OMG...I just bought seche vite tday for the first time! It's amazing! I want to start using more natural products...do you have videos dedicated to that? Or a blog? I was also wondering...what's a good natural deodorant?
what store do you get all your organic products from? can you do a video on the products u use on your face and body? including shampoos lotions creams etc :)
This was such a great idea! I will definitely keep this in mind when it comes time for me to spring clean all my makeup/skincare. Also, would it be possible to make a tutorial of how you style your hair? I love your side swept bangs, at the moment mine are driving me crazy!
that's such a great idea. i think even better than just having a blog sale or doing giveaways here on youtube or blogs. giving away to a women helping woman shelter is such a great idea.
What are the pink and black brushes called that you are keeping and where can I get some? I know you keep mentioning the name in the video but I can't catch the first part of the name. Something lace....
Same with my husband, he is sooo loving to me and I like to wear stuff he likes for the most part, then there are a few things, he's like "green toe polish?? Or what do you need hair extensions for, you look great!
Have you tried the Clean & Clear deep action exfoliating scrub? It's not as rough but I only use it once a week. I really like it and it makes your face cool and tingly. :)
I am just asking, how do you get to dust in all this? Me I did a lot of cleaning and now I almost have nothing on any of my bureaus, kitchen, living room. Do you have a made?
Please let us know how the coconut desert essence lotions/shampoos/conditioners smell :) I was thinking about purchasing the line but i didnt want to get a lotion with a really fake smell
Can you do a review of Ole Henriksen and Kate Somerville? I love the OH products I have but there are not many reviews of their products on youtube. Thanks!
I love how organized you are! Watching your videos has given me some motivation to get off my butt and go through my things. I started this weekend with jewelry....... Ouch, it hurt me to watch you put brushes in your give away pile! ha ha ~ Natalie
awe man i was lookig forward so much to the drugstore skincare video. but tks for sharing your stuff anyways. i use basis and st ives scrub 4 years. i can't believe you are giving that revlon pink away it looked so pretty on your nails. i love your videos. i look forward to each and every one. i know its selfish but i wish you did more i love them so much!!! lol
I love you declutter/spring clean videos. They've inspired me to go through my things and I feel less stress and happier after declutching.
i believe the talking just helps her get through it you know like therapeutic to talk to us
I thought it might be similar to my favorite Seche Vite top coat but it wasn't, it didn't dry nearly as fast as I 'd hoped.
I"m so glad you are doing this, I feel like youtube makes people hoard and I really like that you actually go through your stuff and toss it or donate it to people who could really use them. And the fact that you are helping other women is really great.

Thanks love! Great question! I only own Pippa but I've looked at Creamy multiple times wondering if they're the same lol.
if my husband had a problem with the color of my nail polish.... He'd just have to continue having a problem. I mean who needs approval from a husband about nail polish color.

Love the clean & clear line & am obsessed with the St Ives apricot scrub stuff.
Hey! I love your spring cleaning and declutter videos! they inspire me to do the same with my own collection! love you and your channel!

This is great. I have been uncluttering a lot too. It is so refreshing! It's so generous of you to share these things with others who are in need.

i really liked your idea of donating these things to a ladies shelter/organization. That is really thoughtful and will come in handy for them.
thanks so much for replying pinksofoxy. guess what i found those glass cupcake holders that you keep your glosses in on amazon.
I do, the link is on my channel homepage. Although I've been swamped with work just here on Maui and haven't been able to post any items lately but hopefully soon. :)
Just haircare, skincare, crystal cupcakes and brush holders went in a box. The majority of my makeup fits into my two sterilite drawers.

This was so inspiring, not only for me to clean up and clean out, but to give someone else some Fun! Thank you for your videos; I enjoy them so much. Susan
Hey sweets! The dark gray was Zoya Kelly. I'll have to show my vanity chair soon in an upcoming video :)

I have a question about coconut oil. Where do you buy it. What brands would you suggest and how do you use it?
I agree! Yeah I'm just trying to avoid petroleum based ingredients in general. :)
Thank you!! I'm wearing Wet n Wild Megalast in Tropicalia
the people who get your items are going to be lucky and thankful!!
you are really nice, to give away your unused items!!!
Hey Christine :) was just wondering what you thought of the bare minerals eyeshadows... they just came out here in Australia and are double the price compared to America but im willig to pay if they are good !! Let me know
xoxoxoxoxo

This was such a great idea! I will definitely keep this in mind when it comes time for me to spring clean all my makeup/skincare. Also, would it be possible to make a tutorial of how you style your hair? I love your side swept bangs, at the moment mine are driving me crazy!
Its a great thing you are doing... do you think you will be doing a makeup brush cleaning video, all your brushes look brand new.
How do you keep your makeup brushes so clean ? would like to know :)
Great video. Your so kind and generous. Love all your videos Christine. Xoxo
that's such a great idea. i think even better than just having a blog sale or doing giveaways here on youtube or blogs. giving away to a women helping woman shelter is such a great idea.
what web sites do you use to learn about ingredients in hair/makeup products? i would love to learn what exactly goes into most products
What are the pink and black brushes called that you are keeping and where can I get some? I know you keep mentioning the name in the video but I can't catch the first part of the name. Something lace....
Same with my husband, he is sooo loving to me and I like to wear stuff he likes for the most part, then there are a few things, he's like "green toe polish?? Or what do you need hair extensions for, you look great!
also I have a lot of acne scars, did you think the clean and clear fight and fade toner worked at all?
I absolutely love these videos :) You have inspired me to do some spring cleaning for a good cause as well!
That is so sweet you are helping women.... makes me smile xoxo
That 2nd blue zoya nailpolish you got rid of, what was the color?!
what health foods store do you use in Maui to purchase the Mint Julep Masque? I live in Paia and I don't think that Mana foods sells it...
Have you tried the Clean & Clear deep action exfoliating scrub? It's not as rough but I only use it once a week. I really like it and it makes your face cool and tingly. :)
I am just asking, how do you get to dust in all this? Me I did a lot of cleaning and now I almost have nothing on any of my bureaus, kitchen, living room. Do you have a made?

I hope it works out. I like the st ives, but it's way too rough for me.
