how are you only at 245K subs ... i thought you would have a couple million at least because of the immense knowledge and high quality content. i love your videos because i always learn so much and they cover so many questions that come up in my head. everyone should sub to you imo
I actually don‘t think you take „favourites“ too seriously! I can‘t take youtubers who show me a new favourite moisturizer every month seriously 😋 so your opinion is so much more believable ♥️
Less than 250k subbies is a travesty Karima, you are without a doubt one of THE best beauty influencers on YT. If I ever find myself in need of a recommendation for anything skincare or makeup related I will trawl through your YT feed for an answer and will always get one. You are also the Queen of my olive based foundation needs. You rock xx
I have been watching your videos non stop in quarantine! I love how you’re soooo detail oriented when it comes to the products, you’re so entertaining to watch! I love your videos!
I would just like to clap for the effort made. It bugs me when someone declares something a favourite then says they've only used it for a couple days :))))
I really like the way you did this video, trying on every product so we can see it in action. Your content is always so thought out and careful, and I really, really enjoy it. Thank you for your hard work! 💕
I've been absolutely loving the new Tom Ford double ended blush and highlight wand! The blush is so creamy and such a gorgeous colour and the highlight catches the light beautifully and UGH OBSESSED!
I know this sounds mean but I kinda like hearing that something isn't available in the US. It's just I can't count the amount of times I've wanted to buy something that isn't available in the EU. And whats with brands like Maybelline that have a multitude of products in the US and then slim pickins over here in Ireland? I've wanted to get that Maybelline rose gold highlighter so badly but it's not sold here. Physicians formula and flower beauty are other brands I'd love over here! And if we are talking high end that Laneige lipbalm is so tempting!!
I've watched all of your videos and I never get tired of them. When I want technique, natural beauty and effortless I always choose you :) thanks for keeping up the good work!
It's so fun to watch you because you get so genuinely excited about makeup. Love it. I have dry skin and recently bought the new Wet n Wild cushion foundation and I LOVE IT. It makes me glow without making me at all oily. Also, it doesn't crease into my intense smile lines THANK HEAVEN. And it's so cheap! PS I like the Tom Ford mascara just a tiny bit better than Paradise, but both look lovely.
Wonderful tutorial as usual, nice to have it combined with favourites! Rediscovered an old favourite in Benefit Rockateur blush -- think it might be up your alley as well, it has a really lovely subtle sheen to it and a color that doesn't make my already red cheeks look overly flushed!
Maybe her video about foundations (something with 22+ foundations in the title) will help you. She shows many foundations and talks about the coverage and texture. It's a very, very good video.
I've been loving the etude house brow pencil in grey brown. So good! It's one of those wedge shapes which I usually don't like but this one is thinner than most and the color is gorgeous. It's good for a really quick application but it always looks so natural
I am so excited I found your channel!! I have been totally binging!! You are so well spoken! And very clear discriminatory what you like and why!! 💕💜❤️ Thanks for sharing!!
I love those lip options!! I now need the Wanted palette, MAC blush, and Fawn over me liquid lip!! I wish they carried the gold balm here in the US!! My most recent love is the Glossier Boy Brow! I flipping love it! I’ve also fallen in love with the new Becca hydra mist powder. It’s the only one that doesn’t change the color of my under eye concealer! I’m pale by the way!! I’m so glad i found your channel! I’ve been watching your videos all morning!💜💜💜
Karima you do the best content here on youtube! fav product of the last months is def the dr jart+ cicapair color correcting cream - it's great as a base or on its own to cancel out redness and give a light coverage (feels like a moisturizer too!)
I’ve been a subscriber for a while but never commented before, but today I just wanted to say that I really appreciate your calm yet enthusiastic manner, your reviews that aren’t just saying you’re “obsessed” with something and the high quality of your videos. You seem far more mature than your young years, but in an awesome way. One product that I’ve been recently loving is the Arcona Plus eye serum. It’s very thick but totally melts into your skin and makes the concealer glide on flawlessly. Have a wonderful day!
I love the recent Wayne Goss holiday brush! It is so soft, and I like the sheer application it provides! Especially for powders. I wan't want to have every single pore of my face blocked with powder, I just want a "mesh" of powder. Just enough to do the job but allow my skin to breath. Loved this video Karima!
The new Bite Beauty Amuse Bouche Liquified Lipsticks from the Unearthed Collection have really blown me away. I picked up an orange and a lavender that I would normally never wear but they just work. It's nice to see a more natural brand come out with some less conventional shades.
Awesome video Karrima. Recent great buys Natasha Denona Lila eyeshadow pallet and the Wayne Goss brush set ..,, so happy with these purchases can’t live without
I enjoyed this video a lot. one of the products that I love is the MAC stick highlighter thingy that has two edges. I cannot get around its name but I enjoy using it. It can be used as a highlight and a blusher at the same time and it has a light creamy texture. what I like the most is that a little goes a long way, and it blends away beautifully. it is not flashy but rather subtle and shiny.
Ahhhh I love you so much.. I’ve missed your videos. One product that is making me drool is the new Tatcha primer.. it’s just soooo beautiful on my very dry skin/ oily skin I’m normal to dry.. and that stuff does everything, blur, prime, keep ur pigment true to color, keeps oil at bay.. gives you a nice glow! Omg like I said drool.
I’ve recently been re-loving the L’Oreal Infallible shadows, especially Golden Sage & Amber Rush. Such a beautiful finish! And always the RBR Diaphanous. I will never be without that powder; it’s the only one I’ve found that doesn’t make the skin under my 43YO eyes look dry and crepe-y!
You are seriously one of my top 5 favorite youtubers Karima, seeing you upload always gets me so excited and watching your videos really destresses me! I was wondering if you have tried the new ABH soft glam palette and the Huda beauty smokey obsessions palette? And also which one you would recommend between those two and the Charlotte Tilbury instant eye palette and this Nars wanted palette :)
I haven't tried the ABH Soft Glam or Huda Beauty but between the Charlotte Tilbury and the NARS, I'd say if you like cooler tones go with the CT. The NARS is for the warm lovers 😊 xx
Karima, when I first started watching your channel I loved, and STILL love your application techniques, but aside from that, I related to you because we had the same skin type. I too have always had sensitive skin and I even suffered from a psoriasis looking allergy with the skin under my eyes. The one thing that has balanced my dry skin is Thayer’s witch hazel. I actually produce oil now and it has been a lifesaver. I highly recommend you add it to your skincare routine. Xoxo ❤️
Love love love your channel!!! I love the nars eye shadow palette and use it EVERY day, tempted to buy a back up ........ I love the charlotte tilbury highlight wand too but have recently purchased the flawless filter and it does the same it's such a nice golden sheen, under makeup, with moisturiser, or on top 😍
I love Lash Paradise! It’s one of the best drugstore mascaras, imo. I think both eyes look pretty much the same; the Tom Ford lashes just look a teeny bit longer. Thanks for the video!
I can listen to you talk about beauty any day 😍 I love Essence Lash Princess False Lash Effect mascara! I actually have lashes whenever I use that! And it stays on all day without smudging 👌🏻
So in depth, so objective, watching your videos is such an informative experience and you pull it off with such warmth and charm. Love love love whenever you upload 👸🏻👸🏻👸🏻👸🏻
I would agree with your word choice of "nuance" when referring to the shades in the Narssist pallet. I wasn't completely sold on the pallet with how they look in the pans, but once they're on the lids, they play with the light so beautifully, and utterly uniquely! They are such interesting hues, and they have such... nuance. The glitter shades are just so much fun! "Mendoza" has those baby purple and salmon reflects which are beyond heavenly and unexpected. I've been loving dabbing on all three glitters to bring about a magical shade that enhances like a jeweled crown for my eyes. LOL -- I didn't mean to write a dissertation -- you could day this pallette grew on me too! Damn. It purdy.
Agree. I had been waiting and waiting for it to arrive and when I looked at it I was a bit underwhelmed but got it anyway (mainly because I had annoyed the sales people so much about when it was arriving! lol) But on the eyes - very sophisticated! Like it a lot.
*Dear Karima, can you pleeeaassee review the new L'OREAL TRUE MATCH LUMI GLOW COLLECTION including the Pro-glow foundation??* *Can you also please make a video on subtle glow from within natural looking powder highlights??* *I'd really appreciate it! Much love xx*
So sad that I liked the Tom ford one best! I'd love to see a whole video of mascara comparisons!! I need to try that Mac blush! Warm soul and luminoso are my holy grails as well bc I have rosacea. My favorite lip product right now is the YSL glossy lip stains! I have the shade 203 but want more!!
I’ve been falling in love with the Mecca cosmetica setting spray, for me it just sets everything in place and makes my makeup last hours longer than without it. Also rediscovered my love of the Too Faced semi sweet chocolate bar palette, about to hit pan on two shades!
Hi Karima! Ever since I saw you rave about the coconut milky mist in a video a while back, I've been on a mission to find it, but I just couldn't find it anywhere out here in Shanghai. Well, I visited Dubai just last week and I saw it in a Sephora there and let me tell you, I bought one bottle and used it that night. Went back the next day to stock up on more because it really was that good! You also talked me into getting the YSL cushion and Givenchy balm. Btw, if you love the glittery lippie, I would recommend the Dior lip glow in holo pink as well as YSL rouge volupte shine #42.
how did you know I was in desperate need of a study break AND a favorites video?? ;) those Marc Jacobs lip products look great on you! my current favs are the Marc Jacobs coconut bronzer that I feel safe to use again now that its going to be restocked and the Jouer blush duo in Adore. i'm not huge blush wearer either but it has warm soul/ luminoso vibes and I think you would really love it :)
I appreciate that you don't do monthly favourite and only share the crème de la crème with us; it increases the value of the products you use. Love the in-depth reviews you givr
I also have very allergic/sensitive skin prone to eczema and dermatitis. Another foundation I found that is very forgiving on that texture is the new Lancome Skin Feels Good Foundation :)
I've been really getting into tinted lip balms recently (not that exciting I know!), but I've been really enjoying the Burt's Bees Lip Shimmers, in particular the Caramel shade. They feel plumping and just add a hint of colour and shimmer! Also, you've sold that Nars palette to me 💖
Loved the video as always Karima! Not that you need another brow gel but the L'Oréal Brow Stylist Plumper Brow Mascara in clear is amazing. It is texture city for brows and gives me brows where I don't have (seriously changed my brow game). 2 cons though; it can get flakey in the brows (I'm not sure if it's because I get brow dandruff or it's the product) and the hold could be better. But the brows it gives are perfection and so worth the cons.
Try my favourite mascara choice: Guerlain, maxilash volumizing and curling, the one in the gold tube. I had a sample once and it was amazing. Too many reasons why, just put it on your lashes and you will see. I even switched from Lancome. And surprisingly not many people are talking about it.
I prefer the look of the L’Oreal Lash Paradise because there is more thickness at the base of the lashes. The other mascara had a bit more length but almost little balls of mascara at the tip of your lashes.
Those lipsticks. Omg .love. Also, I love your approach to make up , its almost scientific ( which as a scientist,I appreciate!). Everything is so well thought out and beautiful. Please do not worry about followers, to me you are much more Lisa Eldridge status than those who take free trips to Vietnam...
I love your videos. And lucky me, you and Sharon FArrell upload on the same day! My latest discovery is a six dollar drug store purchase, it’s the wet and wild precious petals highlighter. Very creamy very peachy pink, it’s the best one I’ve tried yet and I’m hooked
I cannot get enough of Nars liquid blush in orgasm and Chantecaille lip chic in Camellia. Best blush and lipstick for dry skin / dry lips! Stay strong even in Canberra’s uber dry and cold winter too.
I was on the hunt for a brightening powder for the under eyes that would brighten my tan skin but not give a terrible flashback I tried everything from Mac to drugstore but the wet n wild contouring duo with the banana shade blew my socks away.I was surprised at how silky and creamy it was given the price point so I quickly got a few back ups.
Karima you are so freaking beautiful and talented beauty guru. U definitely deserve millions of subscribers. Idk why youtube unsubscribed I was shocked when I searched for u
💋 Favorite products you may like, Bobbi Brown Brow Stylist in Blonde (grey tone) and YSL All Hours Foundation~ Lancome Ideal lip liner, Bobbi Brown Cocoa Lip Liner, Bare Minerals Vibe Lip Liner--Physician's Formula Butter Blushes! ❤️ 💋 Lisa
CT Beauty Light Wand is unlike any other highlight. It is not the shiniest (Becca beats it on that aspect), but it is also my new favorite. It is unlike any other because it gives u that expensive, airbrushed, natural glowy look and it sets!
Hey Karima ! Knowing your love for great eyebrow pens, i strongly advise you the one from Zoeva : it's a retractable pen, with a fine tip and the greatest part is that one of their color is this brown-grey shade that is absolutely not orange or red based. It's super affordable and we all know that Zoeva products have such great quality ! Once again, great video, thanks for sharing your passion and knowledge with us 😘
You are amazing. I love you!!! Your videos really helped me to find my perfect foundations' shade because I'm olive too and trying to find which is my shade online is a nightmare. Thanksssss Cheers from Spain.
The becca bronzer in Bali sands 💖 it's not the kind of bronzer that I m attracted to normally with it's apricot-y hue but it looks so healthy on the skin, with a bit of "brightness" you know? 😍 such a pick-me up shade. I've been using again my little pot of kryolan creme in 1D 1/2, so similar to laura mercier sc in texture and it's the perfect green corrector shade, in fact I'm so sickly looking these days that it matches my neck rather well lol, I use it as corrector still tho... And my last recommendation : Kosas lipsticks, because bomb colours and hella pigmented so BEAUT' s when blotted 👌👌
My latest must have is a lip balm! But it’s amazing for fixing chapped, rough, abused lips and can also be used for any other dry bits of skin- Sukin PawPaw Ointment (c.f/vegan too💚) also Lush Chocolate Scrub😋
Love your videos!!!! I love the hello fab beauty coconut smoothie priming moisturizer it's amazing it's so lightweight, moisturiser well the skin and makes my make up look wonderful, another thing that has changed by beauty game is damping or wetting or whatever hahaha my beauty blender with rose water it makes the makeup look even better gives a smoother application and hidtates the skin!!! Btw I would loveee for you to make a video of drugstore cruelty free make up!! Love your channel
I had a tube of glossier boy brow sitting in my vanity for eons because I tried it once and decided it wasn’t for me - but I pulled it out again recently and oh my god......I have never been so wrong. It’s the brow gel of my dreams 👼🏻
Definitely look at the Sturm calming serum if you’ve been quite sensitive. I’m rarely super impressed with skincare because I use a lot it’s hard to see a difference sometimes. That stuff is a freakin miracle for redness and dry patches from dermatitis
I have just been discovering the Nars Wanted eyeshadow palette through these utube videos..believe it or not! guess i'm late to this party! I've been a fan of some of Nars products but never loved the texture of their singles in eyeshadows as they were never buttery enough- but from what I'm seeing in this palette-these are a different formula-maybe improved? I think I'm going to have to try it..before it's not available anymore! BTW, I love the look you created with it- so many use the redder shades in it, which are okay, but not my favorites for eyes...which is probably why I haven't purchased it yet. Reds are not colors that look universally flattering on every eye.
Hi Karima! I've been watching your videos for a few years but am one of those 'silent followers', I don't really comment at all but ever since my skin type changed (from oily to a more dry skin) I have newfound love for your recommendations and I can't tell you how happy I am about it! I can finally try the foundations you recommend yayy! I've been backtracking and rewatching your videos with a different sort of curiosity, ha. I did want to put in a small request if you may be so kind as to consider - can you please try the perricone md no makeup makeup? I'd love to hear your thoughts!
I agree about the opening on the Nars palette!! I’m hopeless at opening it! My other problem with the packaging is that the mirror doesn’t open 180 degrees (or close to) like the loaded palette does. Makes a difference when you’re blind as a bat like me because I do all my makeup in the mirror from whatever eyeshadow palette I’m using
how are you only at 245K subs ... i thought you would have a couple million at least because of the immense knowledge and high quality content. i love your videos because i always learn so much and they cover so many questions that come up in my head. everyone should sub to you imo
Very kind of you to say ❤️
I actually don‘t think you take „favourites“ too seriously! I can‘t take youtubers who show me a new favourite moisturizer every month seriously 😋 so your opinion is so much more believable ♥️
Less than 250k subbies is a travesty Karima, you are without a doubt one of THE best beauty influencers on YT. If I ever find myself in need of a recommendation for anything skincare or makeup related I will trawl through your YT feed for an answer and will always get one. You are also the Queen of my olive based foundation needs. You rock xx

Yes yes yes!!
I've been absolutely loving the new Tom Ford double ended blush and highlight wand! The blush is so creamy and such a gorgeous colour and the highlight catches the light beautifully and UGH OBSESSED!
I know this sounds mean but I kinda like hearing that something isn't available in the US. It's just I can't count the amount of times I've wanted to buy something that isn't available in the EU.

Karima no joke I have been binge watching your videos for the past two days your techniques are incredible!!!
Oh thanks girlfriend! ❤️
Waaauitt Waaahht what?
If you find any other foundations that glide over dry patches could you do a dedicated video? Or a video on how to not emphasize texture
Maybe her video about foundations (something with 22+ foundations in the title) will help you. She shows many foundations and talks about the coverage and texture. It's a very, very good video.
Yes, I would love to see a video on full face of products to use in order to NOT emphasise texture!
I've been loving the etude house brow pencil in grey brown. So good! It's one of those wedge shapes which I usually don't like but this one is thinner than most and the color is gorgeous. It's good for a really quick application but it always looks so natural
You can tell you really love make up, which is the sweetest thing and makes me trust your opinions. Loved this vid x
Love your videos! Your personality is really shining through on this one , I’m liking to see the humorous and playful side
I am so excited I found your channel!! I have been totally binging!! You are so well spoken! And very clear discriminatory what you like and why!! 💕💜❤️ Thanks for sharing!!

The Erin’s faces fairy dust highlighter! It’s all natural and it’s gorgeous!!!
everything you put on your face in this video looks STUNNING 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽
The new Fenty Mattemoiselle lipsticks have become my all time fav just because they're such a comfortable matte!
Paradise makes your lashes look like a fan brush 👌, TF looks piecy and thick. For this softer look, Paradise for the win.
I love Lash Paradise! It’s one of the best drugstore mascaras, imo. I think both eyes look pretty much the same; the Tom Ford lashes just look a teeny bit longer. Thanks for the video!

*Dear Karima, can you pleeeaassee review the new L'OREAL TRUE MATCH LUMI GLOW COLLECTION including the Pro-glow foundation??*
*Can you also please make a video on subtle glow from within natural looking powder highlights??*
*I'd really appreciate it! Much love xx*

The EX1 foundation has been my fave for the last few weeks. It’s EXCELLENT for people with olive skin tones ❤️
What shade do you have? A lot of the swatches appear kinda orange tbh
Karima McKimmie I got the shade 3 which is very green xx definitely worth a try 💕
how did you know I was in desperate need of a study break AND a favorites video?? ;) those Marc Jacobs lip products look great on you! my current favs are the Marc Jacobs coconut bronzer that I feel safe to use again now that its going to be restocked and the Jouer blush duo in Adore. i'm not huge blush wearer either but it has warm soul/ luminoso vibes and I think you would really love it :)
The australis mesmerise eyeshadow palette is a dupe for the nars eye palette you used there :)
Chanel’s soleil de tan bronzer is just effortless and so beautiful
Ooh that's a nice one too 👌🏻 Need to crack that out again! x
Your makeup always looks so chic and effortless! Loved the look 😍
I appreciate that you don't do monthly favourite and only share the crème de la crème with us; it increases the value of the products you use. Love the in-depth reviews you givr
Really like your style of narration.. informative plus entertaining 🥰🥰👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love the tom ford shutter lash side!
I also have very allergic/sensitive skin prone to eczema and dermatitis. Another foundation I found that is very forgiving on that texture is the new Lancome Skin Feels Good Foundation :)
My sister loves her Givenchy lip balm! The Stila Water blushes are so amazing but no one talks about them. Their colorful lip balms are soo good too.
I've been really getting into tinted lip balms recently (not that exciting I know!), but I've been really enjoying the Burt's Bees Lip Shimmers, in particular the Caramel shade. They feel plumping and just add a hint of colour and shimmer! Also, you've sold that Nars palette to me 💖

Try my favourite mascara choice: Guerlain, maxilash volumizing and curling, the one in the gold tube. I had a sample once and it was amazing. Too many reasons why, just put it on your lashes and you will see. I even switched from Lancome. And surprisingly not many people are talking about it.
These recommendations are perfection!!!❤️✨
Sadly, I think the Tom Ford mascara looks just a bit better....but does it look $10,000,000,000,000,000 better? Maybe not.
I prefer the look of the L’Oreal Lash Paradise because there is more thickness at the base of the lashes. The other mascara had a bit more length but almost little balls of mascara at the tip of your lashes.
I'm pretty obsessed with Ilia True Skin Serum foundation, Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Filter #2, Hourglass Illume Sheer Trio & their Scattered Light Glitter eyeshadow in Aura :)
Those lipsticks. Omg .love. Also, I love your approach to make up , its almost scientific ( which as a scientist,I appreciate!). Everything is so well thought out and beautiful. Please do not worry about followers, to me you are much more Lisa Eldridge status than those who take free trips to Vietnam...
I love your videos. And lucky me, you and Sharon FArrell upload on the same day!
My latest discovery is a six dollar drug store purchase, it’s the wet and wild precious petals highlighter. Very creamy very peachy pink, it’s the best one I’ve tried yet and I’m hooked
I cannot get enough of Nars liquid blush in orgasm and Chantecaille lip chic in Camellia. Best blush and lipstick for dry skin / dry lips! Stay strong even in Canberra’s uber dry and cold winter too.
Hey Karima. So glad you posted. I feel like we have the same skin type and style of makeup application. So love your info vids
The ysl cushion isn't available in the States but that didnt stop me from getting it from the UK. Im so excited, its being delivered today!
Report back! 😘
I was on the hunt for a brightening powder for the under eyes that would brighten my tan skin but not give a terrible flashback I tried everything from Mac to drugstore but the wet n wild contouring duo with the banana shade blew my socks away.I was surprised at how silky and creamy it was given the price point so I quickly got a few back ups.
Dammit I wish Wet n Wild was more accessible in Australia 😭
Karima McKimmie I could send you some wet n wild products if you’d want.They just recently launched in India.
That duo literally has the same texture as the marc Jacobs duo
le tissue really? Never tried Marc jacobs.Yes it’s so smooth and creamy and ridiculously cheap
Omg the wanted palette is back! So not sure if I should but it
And now I desperately want the nars palette. 😱😍
Karima you are so freaking beautiful and talented beauty guru. U definitely deserve millions of subscribers. Idk why youtube unsubscribed I was shocked when I searched for u

I have the same problem opening the nars eyeshadows!! Thought it was just mine.
CT Beauty Light Wand is unlike any other highlight. It is not the shiniest (Becca beats it on that aspect), but it is also my new favorite. It is unlike any other because it gives u that expensive, airbrushed, natural glowy look and it sets!
I was wearing the exact same eye look yesterday for a job interview, along with the dewy base that Sharon posted.
bobbi browns gel liner is a hero and a half!
I've been loving the ABH x Amrezy highlighter!
The Givenchy lip balm ... my favorite I’m
About to run out and always carry it on my purse. And the packaging ... omg ! Loveeee it !
So lovely right?! 👌🏻
You have such a beautiful voice! I could listen to you for hours ❤️
Your skin looks flawless ♥️
Bobbi brown vitamine rich primer AWESOME ... foundation looks so good 😍 i was surprise.
I love, love, love your videos! This one was so funny! 🤓 you seem so down to earth which makes your videos so much more interesting. 🤗😘🤓
Thank you, Virginia! ❤️
I looooove love love how delicate you put your makeup on. Just watching it feels so soothing 😂👍👍👍
Hey Karima !
Knowing your love for great eyebrow pens, i strongly advise you the one from Zoeva : it's a retractable pen, with a fine tip and the greatest part is that one of their color is this brown-grey shade that is absolutely not orange or red based. It's super affordable and we all know that Zoeva products have such great quality !
Once again, great video, thanks for sharing your passion and knowledge with us 😘
Is it a felt tip or a brush tip? x
You are amazing. I love you!!!
Your videos really helped me to find my perfect foundations' shade because I'm olive too and trying to find which is my shade online is a nightmare. Thanksssss
Cheers from Spain.
I love your videos and your makeup always looks perfect!
The becca bronzer in Bali sands 💖 it's not the kind of bronzer that I m attracted to normally with it's apricot-y hue but it looks so healthy on the skin, with a bit of "brightness" you know? 😍 such a pick-me up shade. I've been using again my little pot of kryolan creme in 1D 1/2, so similar to laura mercier sc in texture and it's the perfect green corrector shade, in fact I'm so sickly looking these days that it matches my neck rather well lol, I use it as corrector still tho... And my last recommendation : Kosas lipsticks, because bomb colours and hella pigmented so BEAUT' s when blotted 👌👌
My latest must have is a lip balm! But it’s amazing for fixing chapped, rough, abused lips and can also be used for any other dry bits of skin- Sukin PawPaw Ointment (c.f/vegan too💚) also Lush Chocolate Scrub😋
I prefer the paradise mascara on you 🤗 amazing video!!!
Love your videos!!!! I love the hello fab beauty coconut smoothie priming moisturizer it's amazing it's so lightweight, moisturiser well the skin and makes my make up look wonderful, another thing that has changed by beauty game is damping or wetting or whatever hahaha my beauty blender with rose water it makes the makeup look even better gives a smoother application and hidtates the skin!!! Btw I would loveee for you to make a video of drugstore cruelty free make up!! Love your channel
I had a tube of glossier boy brow sitting in my vanity for eons because I tried it once and decided it wasn’t for me - but I pulled it out again recently and oh my god......I have never been so wrong. It’s the brow gel of my dreams 👼🏻
Definitely look at the Sturm calming serum if you’ve been quite sensitive. I’m rarely super impressed with skincare because I use a lot it’s hard to see a difference sometimes. That stuff is a freakin miracle for redness and dry patches from dermatitis
Ohhh I've been looking at that too... Bye moneys 😭
Karima McKimmie the first time I used it the thumbprint sized patch of flaky dermatitis I’d been struggling with for months just flaked off overnight
*applies highlight blush* Yes! catch that light!
I have just been discovering the Nars Wanted eyeshadow palette through these utube videos..believe it or not! guess i'm late to this party! I've been a fan of some of Nars products but never loved the texture of their singles in eyeshadows as they were never buttery enough- but from what I'm seeing in this palette-these are a different formula-maybe improved? I think I'm going to have to try it..before it's not available anymore! BTW, I love the look you created with it- so many use the redder shades in it, which are okay, but not my favorites for eyes...which is probably why I haven't purchased it yet. Reds are not colors that look universally flattering on every eye.
Hi Karima! I've been watching your videos for a few years but am one of those 'silent followers', I don't really comment at all but ever since my skin type changed (from oily to a more dry skin) I have newfound love for your recommendations and I can't tell you how happy I am about it! I can finally try the foundations you recommend yayy! I've been backtracking and rewatching your videos with a different sort of curiosity, ha. I did want to put in a small request if you may be so kind as to consider - can you please try the perricone md no makeup makeup? I'd love to hear your thoughts!
The paradise mascara, definitely
Hi Karima!do you prefer the benefit brow setter over the Anastasia one? 😘
Definitely going to buy that CT highlight now!
very natural! It is the look what we would wear everyday.
I agree about the opening on the Nars palette!! I’m hopeless at opening it! My other problem with the packaging is that the mirror doesn’t open 180 degrees (or close to) like the loaded palette does. Makes a difference when you’re blind as a bat like me because I do all my makeup in the mirror from whatever eyeshadow palette I’m using
Yeah, I can see how that would be irritating! 😒
One of those little bugbears but what can you do.. sometimes a girl just needs some glitter!
