Bringing awareness to mental health is so, so important. My daughter is 16 and struggles with a severe mental health disorder. The fact that so much of our society wants us to sweep it under the rug and not bring it to light disgusts me. I support you talking about the issue. You may really help someone with your platform. If anyone doesn’t want to listen, they don’t leave to watch.
@@Gabbypinkflamez bold question to ask. With mental health, you can’t always assume that “something led” to the disease. Just like you can’t always pinpoint what “leads” you to cancer, etc. This is part of the education and advocacy needed.
@@laura10777i think she meant to ask what caused her disorder. As a neuroscience, psych major, mental disorders dont appear out of the blue, they follow a biological diathesis model. Cancer may or may not occur suddenly. Like long term exposure to direct sunlight "leads" to cancer How was this offensive?
Blueberry Sugar Pancakes and Blueberry Bundt Cake are very similar, but Blueberry Bundt Cake has that cakey note. Blueberry Sugar Pancakes reminds me of Blueberry Muffin Batter, while Blueberry Bundt cake reminds me of an actual blueberry cake. Kind of like those blueberry poundcake slices that you see in the bakery section of the grocery store. Would definitely like to hear your story if you’re comfortable sharing it.
I also struggle with thyroid issues (Hashimoto’s & general thyroid damage) and I think a video about the psychological warfare of having an autoimmune disease or a thyroid disease would be really great. The thyroid affects so much more than people realize. Because of this, once you’re diagnosed with a thyroid condition doctors will blame every single thing you ever worry about on your thyroid without even ruling out other possibilities. I’m glad everything is sorted out now Ksenja.
Hi Ksenja. I love your videos. I have Graves’ disease (hyperthyroidism) and I can completely relate to mental health issues due to physical health issues and issues with doctors and meds etc . The thyroid controls so much people have no idea. I lost my mom to thyroid storm 2 years ago last month. I was diagnosed soon after. I know I would love to hear your story time.. and I’m so glad you’re doing better 💕 you’re literally one of my favorite RUclipsrs
I adore strawberry pound cake. The candle was burning when I was in labor with my son, and I remember commenting multiple times in between contractions about how good it smelled! 😅 So that scent is very near and dear to my heart.
I randomly wore strawberry pound cake to the grocery store today and this lady asked what I was wearing because I smelled so good 😂 I’m so used to the scent I forgot I was even wearing it
A NEW SIGNATURE COLLECTION CALLED VANILLA ROMANCE COMES OUT JULY 23ND!! (AT BBW)SCENT NOTES OF FRESH CARDAMOM, VANILLA ABSOLUTE, CAPTIVAITING WOODS!!! SO EXCITED FOR THIS ONE SINCE IM A VANILLA LOVER!!! ITS GONNA HAVE A PERFUME AND EVERYTHING ELSE IN IT!!🤩👏🏻🔥🏃🏼♀️😍🙌🏻🤯🤗
Hey, sweet Ksenja! I just wanted to jump in and let you know that ur not alone in ur physical/mental journey. I came into 2024 so excited for the new year and ready to live my best life. Well, not even 2 weeks into it, I got bronchitis, and I was sick for a month and a half. I had not even been over that before I began my struggle with Shingles. That lasted exactly 2 months, and I got one day feeling somewhat better before I had a kidney stone attack and have passed 5 kidney stones so far. Phew! 😮 Just talking about it makes me 😫. As you can imagine, I went from being so happy to being scared of my own shadow. Even on my good days, I am constantly wondering what is coming next. 🙃 I can just hope and pray that the rest of the year evens out and I can feel better. But, I just wanted to let you know that lots of us out here can relate, and if you feel like you want to share or if u decide not to, we will all be here to listen and send love and prayers either way. 😊
My mom & I both have thyroid issues.. she has Graves’ disease, I’m Hashimoto’s. Sometimes I think it was my unknown thyroid issue that caused 2 miscarriages many years ago 😢. Life is much better now. Always look forward to watching your videos. God bless ♥️
I feel that uf you"re willing to share your story with us, we are glad to listen to what you have to say and to learn. Your story may help someone going through the same thing 🎉🎉💜
My daughter has hashimotos. She had breast implants and kept getting sick. Many different symptoms that were so scary. Was diagnosed with hashimotos. Then she started losing her hair. She took her implants out and started feeling better. That was over a year ago. She ended up completely bold. They say sometimes autoimmune disorders come acompanied by others. Right now she is doing great. Still bold but she is beautiful! Really! Doesn't even wear wigs bc its so hot! You are not alone. She belongs to a facebook group with those issues. So many women suffer like this. You can share. It always helps other people to understand and to not feel alone! ❤
Your poor daughter! That’s a lot to go through. 🥺 I was recently diagnosed with Hashimoto’s and my hair loss hasn’t gotten better with thyroid medication at all. It’s terrible to one’s self-esteem. I’ll remember your comment and try to embrace my likely eventual baldness. ❤
I went through tremendous health issues last year and trust me it messed me up mentally sooo bad 😢just want to say it gets better and if you’re open to share it to help others do it !
Clicked so fast! I love your Bath and Body Works content!! I just purchased Gingham Glow and I have been pairing it with Mugler Alien Goddess. It's definitely a high end perfume dupe.
Hey Ksenja, if you feel comfortable telling the story. I feel you should because remember you’re never alone whenever you’re going through because I m somebody someone maybe going through the same and we can help each other. Either way I hope and pray that whatever you’re going through I pray for complete healing🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I honestly like blueberry Bundt cake it smells like strawberry pound cake but instead of the strawberry it’s blueberry. I personally think Brazilian crush 71 smells way more sweet than the blueberry Bundt cake to me 71 is sickly sweet and kinda smells like popcorn compared to blueberry Bundt cake, but I do like 62 from Brazilian crush, so no hate to that brand. Blueberry does layer great with the blueberry lotion. I know these two fragrances have nothing in common but I’m just giving an example of the sweetness level in blueberry Bundt cake incase anyone is interested in it.
You were talking about your mental health in previous video and I started following you I really think it's important to talk about my mom has thyroid cancer and I've been having issues with my thyroid they found three lumps and they went in and did biopsies on them I'm waiting on the results for it now😢
Love your videos especially the bbw ones!! But please share if u want to about ur health my mom suffers with her thyroid issues and I’d love to know more so I can help her she has Graves’ disease and had to have the entire thyroid removed plus three nodules
I’ve struggled with mental and physical health problems all my life. It’s so important to spread awareness ❤️ Thank you so much for being you, and I would love to hear more about your experiences
As long as you’re comfortable sharing I’d say go for it! Cause you’re not alone and you could help someone else who maybe going through the same thing! Glad you’re doing better!!! ❤
Hello! I am a combined internal medicine-psychiatry physician. Any opportunity I get to learn from patients is worth it to me. I think physical and mental health are not mutually exclusive, and that’s why I practice both medicine and psychiatry. Would love to hear your story and can hopefully gain insight on how to better care for my patients! But of course, only share if you’re comfortable! If it would worsen your mental health, it might not be worth it. Love your videos! ❤😊
If talking about it helps do it ;) we all have something going on i was diagnosed with stage 3 cancer last year went through chemo and radiation i almost died last year also i have kidney failure
I battled with drs for over 5 years to get a diagnosis of lupus and they kept blaming depression and anxiety even though I would tell them I was only depressed because I was sick..also lupus can affect the thyroid system which can cause mental symptoms but I would love to hear your story and I also think it’s important in case it can help someone going through the same issues.💛
@ksenja! GIRL!!! We are here for YOU, not just the perfumes. If its something you want to share, you will find the right time. And if you dont, you are 100% allowed to keep it just for yourself. You are loved here! You are our scent sister! Real women support other women in all topics and aspects of life, not just perfume. This is YOUR channel and alot of us watch you because we can relate to you. Mental health topics are very important in today's times. There are too many people who feel alone only to find out they truly arent. Sending good vibes your way 💜
I also have Hashimotos and would love to hear about your experience because I’ve never heard anyone else talk about it! Only if you are comfortable tho. Also check out Very Vanilla at Pink it’s a new fall drop and it smells like a cinnamon sugar donut!
So glad you got your health sorted, well being in so important 😊. I’m sure there would be value in you sharing but only do so if you feel comfortable ❤️. Great haul as usual. I have some of the same mists coming in the mail tomorrow so I’m extra excited now 😍! Take care, lots of love 🩷🩷.
Your subject is very important thank you for sharing . You are not alone hun. I battled depression weight gain and heavy menstrual painful cycles. When I had a test done it was found I had a malignant tumor in my thyroid. Had a full Thyroidectomy 20 years ago now I’m better feeling more great and healthier. I’m on SYNTHROID 100 taking supplements vitamin D3 Vtamin c & Iron together full post menopausal now due to an ablation. But in living hope to god this helps you and anyone here. God bless ❤
I’ve been subbed for well over a year and you’re a bright light in my weekly routine! I’m sorry you’ve been struggling this summer but I’m so proud of all you’ve done with your channel and appreciate all the hard work you’ve put into it even though you haven’t been feeling well. Share if you want to- either way I’m staying subbed ❤
Loving Gingham Glow, too. Very expensive smelling. It is in the same scent family as Michael Kors perfume, J'adore L'or & Giorgio perfume from way back when. It's sensual & warm. Long lasting & beautiful on my skin. You have to give it about 10 minutes...🌻☺to settle. Not for everyone...but I love it🌻
I love bath and body works perfume and candles and shower gels and lotions but here is a good tip for all of the ladies on here and for everyday I love to get the summer beach fresh and clean scents and then when it's fall and winter I use and get the gormont scents for the holiday warm cozy scents
Your health journey is your own...and I understand your reluctance. Thyroid issues can be super complex and change over time. I have Graves Disease and am always flip flopping between being normal, being hyper (cue the anxiety )and being hypo (cue the depression). It's exhausting. Love your videos - good-smelling things help!!❤
Not a gourmand girl at all but I have a few that I do like. What I did pick up was from the current weekend $5.95 sale. I picked up was Ghoul Friend, Vanilla Romance,, Pink Paradise ( backup worthy for me), Vacation Vibe and Gingham Glow. Because I’m such a floral girl, the summer scents just started getting used a few weeks ago when actual summer started haha. My sniffer likes Ghoul Friend this year. Pink Paradise is perfect for layering with other hibiscus scents and I like that it’s not that strong.
Yes, please share ur story if u r comfortable. I have had a very similar experience with health, Dr's who were not great and the fallout of losing my physical health just b4 and during the pandemic and as a result struggled with my mental health. It's taken a few yrs to walk through hell and find some light again. Still on a long, permanent journey but finding the light. Hang in there❤
Hi Ksenja thankyou for sharing, and I think if you want to explain more, there will be a lot of people who will relate to your experience, and others that will benefit from what you have learned. ❤ When you find a good doctor stay with that doctor. Wishing you all the best in your health journey. ❤
Good Evening Beauty!❤❤❤ Pink Champagne is available right now on the EOS site. I was able to get that, Strawberry and Jasmine Peach. The Jasmine Peach surprised me! It's juicy and really sensual!
Hi! If you want to talk about your health, etc. that's fine. But if you do not want to discuss it, that's fine too. Do what is best for you!...Enjoyed your haul! Tfs!
I might have a thyroid issue. I mean an hour ago. I'm going to need blood work to determine if the level is higher. Thank you. You did help someone. ❤😘❣️
Mental health issues is not a joke i have struggled with mental health issues for years everything happened right after i lost my mom when i was 15 years old a month before i hit my 16 y.o it wasn’t easy i had issues with my school grades n i also battled with a family member who is not worth talking about lets just say he’s in jail for things that went down it’s so triggering for me each and every time i talk bout it not only i lost my mom at such a young age i also battled with depression because of what had happened to me im glad i have a wonderful husband who always is here to hear me out & tells me if i ever feel like i need to talk to someone he’s here to listen and help me as much as he can i found the right one usually when us women go through such rough childhood trauma we don’t trust just every one out there with our personal life i know exactly how you feel i still have my struggles here and there but i stand and stare at my family and there the reason why im still pushing through & trying to better my self mentaly im always going to fall but i do my very best to lift my spirits up i hug and kiss my lil angels and i tell them how much i love them❤
I’m loving the Pumpkin Swirl Cake collection. I was pleasantly surprised when the pumpkin was very soft and not overwhelming. It’s a really good pumpkin, like a pumpkin cake with a hint of spice and cream cheese frosting. I bought three bottles and two bottles of the body wash. The body wash is so yummy. I also got two of the body creams, again so yummy. The body cream is like sweet vanilla cream cheese frosting. I’m addicted to it. I also bought the new Strawberry Poundcake and the Blueberry Bundt Cake mists but just so I could add them to my collection. I don’t think Blueberry Bundt Cake is a repackage of Blueberry Pancakes, it’s not nearly as sweet. Blueberry Pancakes is way too strong. Blueberry Bundt Cake has more of an actual cake feel. I love Pink Paradise. I bought a ton of back ups to the collection. It’s a great dupe of Cheirosa 68. I think it’s actually pretty strong, especially when you use the wash and the body butter. The body butter is my favorite, it’s so sparkly. I know that’s a con for some but I love it. I bought se of the butters, they’re fantastic.
Its your channel, so its your choice to share what you want. However you may want to consider a few things. 1. If you are struggling mentally, a therapist may be helpful for you before you make your private life public. It lets you vent privately in a non judgemental place. 2. You have built your channel on beauty, fragrance, lifestyle content. I can only speak for myself but that is why I subscribed. If the content changes, I will probably move on. 3. Consider starting a second channel for personal or topics off context to this one. 4. If you are struggling with health, and you can afford to financially, take a break from YT to take care of yourself. We all have struggles and the urge to share in a community you built is understandable, but it may have unintended consequences. You will ultimately make the best decision for yourself, but since you asked and I appreciate your content I fugured I would chime in.
You needed to share the amount of information that you shared during this video, and if and when you want to share more you will. Only you know your story, no one can live it or convey it like you can. Brava on all of your reviews 👍🏾🥰!!
2:55 oh my god it’s always the bad doctors that make me reconsider seeking medical help when I feel like I should 💀 hope you can get the help that you need girl
The BBW mists were $5.95. I bought Blueberry Bundt Cake and Gingham Glow. I love GG but only like BBC. Too early for me for pumpkin scents but I did like that too. Just $6 is too much for me for it this early. I have to wear my last years Gingham Gorgeous- it’s good- just need to pull it out. I don’t love regular Gingham. I think it’s too unisex for me. I do like the green Fresh one. Thyroid issues are SO hard!!! I have them as well. A good Dr is worth their weight in gold! Thyroid issues will cause mental health issues as well- but once you get regulated you’ll feel so much better. Wishing you well!!! 💜
@@Arginne thatj's interesting because I don't have to use as much of GG as I do others including BBC. Sometimes our own noses go blind to scents. I was shocked once when I thought my White Jasmine mist had dissolved hours after I sprayed it and a store clerk started raving about how great I smelled. She actually wrote down the name & said she was going to go get it when she got off work. I had to explain it wasn't currently available. But that just shows us that sometimes when we can't smell something, it's still leaving a trail.
It is really important to raise awareness for mental health issues, but it’s also about you being comfortable as well. You should do what you feel is right. On a side note, I don’t think that Blueberry Bundt Cake and Blueberry Sugar Pancakes smell the same at all. I really don’t think it’s a repackage.
Hmmm, I’m glad that you’ve found good doctors. I suggest, though, that you keep your …problems vague and quiet. It’s not that we your subs don’t care. We do. Some things are meant to be private.
To my nose the re-release of strawberry poundcake is watered down and it doesn't last. They definitely tweaked it. It has less strawberry n more cake n cream. The juice is also lighter. I'm so sad because it's one of my favs😢
I'm pregnant and did not know I had thyroyd issues. Now it came up in my bloodwork and I have to take medication every morning.. I have a feeling these pills make me sick but I have to..
Do you have a video recommendation for people with sensitive nose? I get nauseous with strong scents. But I've been addicted to BBW Warm vanilla sugar lately. Its smells so cozy and addicting.
I feel like I am the only person who hates Strawberry Poundcake! I got the spray, the body wash, and the handsoap, and they were not good I'm planning on donating them! Does anyone else agree with me?
Medical trauma is real! It can truly give you ptsd. I hope you’re doing okay. You’re not alone and if you’re up to it, I think it would be helpful to others for you to share your story to let them know they’re not alone either ✌️🌺
Hi ksenja, im your subscriber from the Philippines. Hoping for your good health as well as your family. I really like the way of reviewing the scent esp love your voice.. I just want to know if you still have a bbw merry berry christmas scent in your collection? Could you review your top berry scent. Thank you. God Bless.
2:45 My Husband has Hashimoto’s and he is one of the fairly rare males that has it, it’s not super common for men to get it. He was 36 when he was finally diagnosed with it. It’s been ten years this December. Thyroid issues are usually inherited conditions, I’d be curious how a doctor gave you Hashimoto thyroiditis? I’m not sure how that would even happen, so a proper story time would be best to explain what you meant? Hope you’re getting treatment and on a replacement therapy. Take care sweetie!
Try layering Strawberry Poundcake with Lemon Poundcake 🤤Is it just me or are all the new 10 dupe fragrances out of stock in their stores? I never had a chance to smell them. I didn’t like the yellow one that’s duping SDJ #?? People who get how hard mental health is when it’s a “bad spell” GET IT. And I get it.
Hallo beautiful Lady, thank you for sharing with us 🙏. Health is the most important thing🙏❤️...we should Focus on it. Take good care of you 🙏. And thank you for this Video ❤. Greetings from Germany 😘
I did not get baccarat from the 68. I sprayed the 68 the first time a couple of weeks ago and hated it. Gave it away. May be just on my skin, but didn’t like. However I love my baccarat rouge. 🤷♀️
1:03 just here to let you know that blueberry Bundt cake is definitely not the same as blueberry sugar pancakes because I absolutely hate that one. It’s far too sweet. It makes me sick to smell it and I love blueberry Bundt cake. I can wear that one! the blueberries 🫐 are much more fresh. It’s much better and you need to go back and get that on another sale!! 🎉
I have a condition called optic nerve hypoplasia and it affects my thyroid levels and cortisol levels. I have to take thyroid pills and stuff just know your not alone. I’m sorry about that doctor you had. God bless you. Jesus loves you and wants to heal you of your mental health. He died for you and wants to know you. Your a beautiful women and you deserve to be happy!❤
Depends on how much you spray lol. They're 2.5 oz which is about almost a third of the size of a full size mist. You always want to overspray body mists because the oil concentration is weaker, so it's probably not going to last too long (you could get through a spray within a few weeks this way)
I bought the Solar shine mist I think it is the name, but it smells very soft, almost nothing, not sure if it smells softer than the body mist ? But I still like it 😊 and I didn't find it smells similar to Río radiance sdj 🤔
I *ONCE AGAIN* clicked on this video so fast; wanna try *ANYTHING* gourmand/vanilla. but YES please make a medical video; I'm chronically ill myself and have some mental health issues myself. sending love always
Do you think Pink Paradise is closer to 540 than any other BBW mist? I bought In The Stars thinking that was a 540 dupe but I've also seen The Only One is said to be a dupe.

Run an ERMI mold test on your home and work ...commonly causes thyroid issues. Yup order it at mycometrics or envirobionomics
My Husband has Hashimoto’s and he is one of the fairly rare males that has it, it’s not super common for men to get it.
I smelled the new Victoria Secret pink Fall scents today and I just know you’d love love loove the scent “very Vanilla” it’s gourmand and so delicious

Mental health topics are very important in today's times. There are too many people who feel alone only to find out they truly arent. Sending good vibes your way 💜
I also have Hashimotos and would love to hear about your experience because I’ve never heard anyone else talk about it! Only if you are comfortable tho. Also check out Very Vanilla at Pink it’s a new fall drop and it smells like a cinnamon sugar donut!
So glad you got your health sorted, well being in so important 😊. I’m sure there would be value in you sharing but only do so if you feel comfortable ❤️. Great haul as usual. I have some of the same mists coming in the mail tomorrow so I’m extra excited now 😍! Take care, lots of love 🩷🩷.
Your subject is very important thank you for sharing . You are not alone hun. I battled depression weight gain and heavy menstrual painful cycles. When I had a test done it was found I had a malignant tumor in my thyroid. Had a full Thyroidectomy 20 years ago now I’m better feeling more great and healthier. I’m on SYNTHROID 100 taking supplements vitamin D3 Vtamin c & Iron together full post menopausal now due to an ablation. But in living hope to god this helps you and anyone here. God bless ❤
I really like the gingham glow
I’ve been subbed for well over a year and you’re a bright light in my weekly routine! I’m sorry you’ve been struggling this summer but I’m so proud of all you’ve done with your channel and appreciate all the hard work you’ve put into it even though you haven’t been feeling well. Share if you want to- either way I’m staying subbed ❤
I have Hashimotos, so im definitely interested in hearing anything you have to say in regard to that and anything that came about in relation to it.
Me too. Recently diagnosed. Major hair loss and now feeling sad, naturally. The medication isn’t improving it at all. 😢
Sending good vibes your way. I really enjoy watching your videos!
Loving Gingham Glow, too. Very expensive smelling. It is in the same scent family as Michael Kors perfume, J'adore L'or & Giorgio perfume from way back when. It's sensual & warm. Long lasting & beautiful on my skin. You have to give it about 10 minutes...🌻☺to settle.
Not for everyone...but I love it🌻
Layering combos for these scents 🙏
strawberry poundcake with burberry her is so cute together
The body wash of strawberry pound cake is soooo nice when you need that vibe.
I love bath and body works perfume and candles and shower gels and lotions but here is a good tip for all of the ladies on here and for everyday I love to get the summer beach fresh and clean scents and then when it's fall and winter I use and get the gormont scents for the holiday warm cozy scents
Your health journey is your own...and I understand your reluctance. Thyroid issues can be super complex and change over time. I have Graves Disease and am always flip flopping between being normal, being hyper (cue the anxiety )and being hypo (cue the depression). It's exhausting.
Love your videos - good-smelling things help!!❤
Not a gourmand girl at all but I have a few that I do like. What I did pick up was from the current weekend $5.95 sale. I picked up was Ghoul Friend, Vanilla Romance,, Pink Paradise ( backup worthy for me), Vacation Vibe and Gingham Glow. Because I’m such a floral girl, the summer scents just started getting used a few weeks ago when actual summer started haha. My sniffer likes Ghoul Friend this year. Pink Paradise is perfect for layering with other hibiscus scents and I like that it’s not that strong.
Yes, please share ur story if u r comfortable. I have had a very similar experience with health, Dr's who were not great and the fallout of losing my physical health just b4 and during the pandemic and as a result struggled with my mental health. It's taken a few yrs to walk through hell and find some light again. Still on a long, permanent journey but finding the light.
Hang in there❤
I’m wondering if fragrance affects the thyroid. Now I’m interested because i have had thyroid issues as well
Mthfr gene can which a lot of people have if you haven’t been tested. and Perfumes with phthalates can disrupt hormones
Hi Ksenja thankyou for sharing, and I think if you want to explain more, there will be a lot of people who will relate to your experience, and others that will benefit from what you have learned. ❤
When you find a good doctor stay with that doctor.
Wishing you all the best in your health journey. ❤
Good Evening Beauty!❤❤❤
Pink Champagne is available right now on the EOS site. I was able to get that, Strawberry and Jasmine Peach. The Jasmine Peach surprised me! It's juicy and really sensual!
Glad to hear you’re doing well 🙏 enjoyed this video must purchase and thanks so much you’re the BEST!!!
Praying for you. ❤
Hi! If you want to talk about your health, etc. that's fine. But if you do not want to discuss it, that's fine too. Do what is best for you!...Enjoyed your haul! Tfs!
I might have a thyroid issue. I mean an hour ago. I'm going to need blood work to determine if the level is higher. Thank you. You did help someone. ❤😘❣️
Mental health issues is not a joke i have struggled with mental health issues for years everything happened right after i lost my mom when i was 15 years old a month before i hit my 16 y.o it wasn’t easy i had issues with my school grades n i also battled with a family member who is not worth talking about lets just say he’s in jail for things that went down it’s so triggering for me each and every time i talk bout it not only i lost my mom at such a young age i also battled with depression because of what had happened to me im glad i have a wonderful husband who always is here to hear me out & tells me if i ever feel like i need to talk to someone he’s here to listen and help me as much as he can i found the right one usually when us women go through such rough childhood trauma we don’t trust just every one out there with our personal life i know exactly how you feel i still have my struggles here and there but i stand and stare at my family and there the reason why im still pushing through & trying to better my self mentaly im always going to fall but i do my very best to lift my spirits up i hug and kiss my lil angels and i tell them how much i love them❤
I’m loving the Pumpkin Swirl Cake collection. I was pleasantly surprised when the pumpkin was very soft and not overwhelming. It’s a really good pumpkin, like a pumpkin cake with a hint of spice and cream cheese frosting. I bought three bottles and two bottles of the body wash. The body wash is so yummy. I also got two of the body creams, again so yummy. The body cream is like sweet vanilla cream cheese frosting. I’m addicted to it. I also bought the new Strawberry Poundcake and the Blueberry Bundt Cake mists but just so I could add them to my collection. I don’t think Blueberry Bundt Cake is a repackage of Blueberry Pancakes, it’s not nearly as sweet. Blueberry Pancakes is way too strong. Blueberry Bundt Cake has more of an actual cake feel.
I love Pink Paradise. I bought a ton of back ups to the collection. It’s a great dupe of Cheirosa 68. I think it’s actually pretty strong, especially when you use the wash and the body butter. The body butter is my favorite, it’s so sparkly. I know that’s a con for some but I love it. I bought se of the butters, they’re fantastic.
I think you should. But do what you feel comfortable doing of course thats important too. Thanks so much 🙏 for all your information and review
Love you so much. I hope your doing better now. Would love to hear your story time, We are here for you
Yes make a video about mental health pleeaseeeee. Its hard to find people in person that aren’t so judgy.
Its your channel, so its your choice to share what you want. However you may want to consider a few things.
1. If you are struggling mentally, a therapist may be helpful for you before you make your private life public. It lets you vent privately in a non judgemental place.
2. You have built your channel on beauty, fragrance, lifestyle content. I can only speak for myself but that is why I subscribed. If the content changes, I will probably move on.
3. Consider starting a second channel for personal or topics off context to this one.
4. If you are struggling with health, and you can afford to financially, take a break from YT to take care of yourself.
We all have struggles and the urge to share in a community you built is understandable, but it may have unintended consequences. You will ultimately make the best decision for yourself, but since you asked and I appreciate your content I fugured I would chime in.
i never thought sol de janeiro 68 smelled like baccarat. Smells more like Burberry her imo
You needed to share the amount of information that you shared during this video, and if and when you want to share more you will. Only you know your story, no one can live it or convey it like you can. Brava on all of your reviews 👍🏾🥰!!
I got gingham gorgeous and sweet pea
Yes the gingham glow is good good
2:55 oh my god it’s always the bad doctors that make me reconsider seeking medical help when I feel like I should 💀 hope you can get the help that you need girl
The BBW mists were $5.95. I bought Blueberry Bundt Cake and Gingham Glow. I love GG but only like BBC. Too early for me for pumpkin scents but I did like that too. Just $6 is too much for me for it this early. I have to wear my last years Gingham Gorgeous- it’s good- just need to pull it out. I don’t love regular Gingham. I think it’s too unisex for me. I do like the green Fresh one. Thyroid issues are SO hard!!! I have them as well. A good Dr is worth their weight in gold! Thyroid issues will cause mental health issues as well- but once you get regulated you’ll feel so much better. Wishing you well!!! 💜
I bought glow and BBC and love both. I bought gorgeous and it’s nice but has no projection for me so may return it
@@Arginne thatj's interesting because I don't have to use as much of GG as I do others including BBC. Sometimes our own noses go blind to scents. I was shocked once when I thought my White Jasmine mist had dissolved hours after I sprayed it and a store clerk started raving about how great I smelled. She actually wrote down the name & said she was going to go get it when she got off work. I had to explain it wasn't currently available. But that just shows us that sometimes when we can't smell something, it's still leaving a trail.
It is really important to raise awareness for mental health issues, but it’s also about you being comfortable as well. You should do what you feel is right.
On a side note, I don’t think that Blueberry Bundt Cake and Blueberry Sugar Pancakes smell the same at all. I really don’t think it’s a repackage.
Awww babe the thyroid stuff is never fun 🙏🏻🥺❤️ biggest love xx
Have you looked into fragrance and the endocrine system? Maybe you already have but I just wanted to put that out there in case it helps xx ❤❤❤
Hmmm, I’m glad that you’ve found good doctors. I suggest, though, that you keep your …problems vague and quiet. It’s not that we your subs don’t care. We do. Some things are meant to be private.
Yes. Be cautious. Agree 100%.
To my nose the re-release of strawberry poundcake is watered down and it doesn't last. They definitely tweaked it. It has less strawberry n more cake n cream. The juice is also lighter. I'm so sad because it's one of my favs😢
I'm pregnant and did not know I had thyroyd issues. Now it came up in my bloodwork and I have to take medication every morning.. I have a feeling these pills make me sick but I have to..
The Lord will take care of you❤️. I pray that whoever see’s this will surrender all their worries and suffering to God🙏🏻. May he be with you!
Do you have a video recommendation for people with sensitive nose? I get nauseous with strong scents. But I've been addicted to BBW Warm vanilla sugar lately. Its smells so cozy and addicting.
I feel like I am the only person who hates Strawberry Poundcake! I got the spray, the body wash, and the handsoap, and they were not good I'm planning on donating them! Does anyone else agree with me?
Yes!!! Mine smells like yogurt. I am so mad
Medical trauma is real! It can truly give you ptsd. I hope you’re doing okay. You’re not alone and if you’re up to it, I think it would be helpful to others for you to share your story to let them know they’re not alone either ✌️🌺
Ahhh, just take it is , walking helps me alot
Please share, we all can learn from each other ❤ I’ve decided to go full time Vegan for a better longer life.
The pumpkin one is much lighter than eclair to me. Eclair is so strong. They’re different to me at least.
Curious as you say Blueberry bundt cake is sickenly sweet, but Strawberry poubdcake is sooooo sweet?
Yay! SAS is over and they've got the new ones out. I didn't buy bc I bought so much at SAS. I'm eager to hear what you think. Let's go.
Hi ksenja, im your subscriber from the Philippines. Hoping for your good health as well as your family. I really like the way of reviewing the scent esp love your voice.. I just want to know if you still have a bbw merry berry christmas scent in your collection? Could you review your top berry scent. Thank you. God Bless.
2:45 My Husband has Hashimoto’s and he is one of the fairly rare males that has it, it’s not super common for men to get it. He was 36 when he was finally diagnosed with it. It’s been ten years this December. Thyroid issues are usually inherited conditions, I’d be curious how a doctor gave you Hashimoto thyroiditis? I’m not sure how that would even happen, so a proper story time would be best to explain what you meant? Hope you’re getting treatment and on a replacement therapy. Take care sweetie!
Try layering Strawberry Poundcake with Lemon Poundcake 🤤Is it just me or are all the new 10 dupe fragrances out of stock in their stores? I never had a chance to smell them. I didn’t like the yellow one that’s duping SDJ #??
People who get how hard mental health is when it’s a “bad spell” GET IT. And I get it.
Hallo beautiful Lady, thank you for sharing with us 🙏. Health is the most important thing🙏❤️...we should Focus on it. Take good care of you 🙏. And thank you for this Video ❤. Greetings from Germany 😘
Sending love girl ❤
Hi Ksenja hope you’re doing well! Can you please please make a review on dark kiss from bath and body . I think it’s only available online though
Hope you get better 💕
Hashimotos for 35 years and I am healthy as a horse but must work out at least 4 times a week with dumbells.
🙏🏽🙏🏽 I would love for you to share whatever you’re willing to share 💜💜🙏🏽🙏🏽
I did not get baccarat from the 68. I sprayed the 68 the first time a couple of weeks ago and hated it. Gave it away. May be just on my skin, but didn’t like. However I love my baccarat rouge. 🤷♀️
1:03 just here to let you know that blueberry Bundt cake is definitely not the same as blueberry sugar pancakes because I absolutely hate that one. It’s far too sweet. It makes me sick to smell it and I love blueberry Bundt cake. I can wear that one! the blueberries 🫐 are much more fresh. It’s much better and you need to go back and get that on another sale!! 🎉
I have a condition called optic nerve hypoplasia and it affects my thyroid levels and cortisol levels. I have to take thyroid pills and stuff just know your not alone. I’m sorry about that doctor you had. God bless you. Jesus loves you and wants to heal you of your mental health. He died for you and wants to know you. Your a beautiful women and you deserve to be happy!❤
Does anyone know how long a travel size body mist usually lasts? Like if I bring it to school everyday and use it?💖
Depends on how much you spray lol. They're 2.5 oz which is about almost a third of the size of a full size mist. You always want to overspray body mists because the oil concentration is weaker, so it's probably not going to last too long (you could get through a spray within a few weeks this way)
@@rarely.imanol Oh Ok Tysm for telling me
I bought the Solar shine mist I think it is the name, but it smells very soft, almost nothing, not sure if it smells softer than the body mist ? But I still like it 😊 and I didn't find it smells similar to Río radiance sdj 🤔
Prayers for my fellow young adults. Mental illness is running rampant.
I *ONCE AGAIN* clicked on this video so fast; wanna try *ANYTHING* gourmand/vanilla. but YES please make a medical video; I'm chronically ill myself and have some mental health issues myself. sending love always
Do you think Pink Paradise is closer to 540 than any other BBW mist? I bought In The Stars thinking that was a 540 dupe but I've also seen The Only One is said to be a dupe.
Some people think that First Sight is a dupe. I personally can't say since I haven't smelled Baccarat yet.
@monetmd8024 yes the lotion/cream forms I smelled them and thought the same before I even came up across the comments.
@@monetmd8024 No, me neither. I'm really happy with In The Stars. Thanks for the extra name. :)
@@mimi_x_mimi Thanks. :)
🙏🙏🙏❤️
