i was going to say, im pretty sure the top coat is only meant to be used with the gel colours in the same line so its weird that they only sent out the top coat in the ipsy bag! hope it works better for you! love you!
My sister used both the gel color plus the gel top coat and loved it. It lasted her a week and usually polish doesn't last her that long. So yea maybe try both together.
Dear person reading this, Maybe you are going through a hard time right now, but don’t give up. Someday your hard work will pay off and you will inspire others to do great things, just believe in yourself. You are a beautiful human being inside and out. You can make your dreams come true. So, start being the inspiring and brave perosn you were suppose to be. Sincerly, Me
Lori Fischer As if that's going happen ! Why would a murderer would be doing on RUclips or better yet on the Internet? If they were going to kill someone, might as well do in their local community. I'm not saying I'm encouraging Murders or anyone something like to fulfill their goals, dreams and etc. When I was typing this out, I was doing to for myself and other people who needs some wisdom of words. You probably just exaggerating and don't think of it as a negative way. In any way if this makes you upset or angry, I'm so sorry.
I actually used to hate shimmery eyeshadows, but oh my god, your eye makeup is GORGEOUS. I just went out and bought some frosted ones to mimic your look. So pretty. Love your videos.
Oooooh girl I'm in my kitchen watching this as I make my lunch for tomorrow, my back turned to the computer and when you said your bit about Velour lashes I froze in time and my head spun like "RIGHT!?!" Ps. You're purdy ok byeeeee xx
Seriously, nobody cares about your videos being long! You know we'll all watch you for 40 minutes straight, and then go back and watch an old one for another 40 minutes. Haha
Same here, since I discovered her channel I'm on a marathon whenever I have the time, she makes fun videos that are informative and she has a sweet personality, it's all nice and pleasant to watch ^^
I totally agree too. You're definitely not to rough because I had the same issues and I was very very careful taking them off. They are definitely not worth the money!
Me too! I do not like them at all. I'm so sad I bought two pairs cause they're so hard to work with and make my eyes look so small =( really disappointed.
I feel like we found eachother (really i found you ) in such a good season in my life. I went from making 17-25$ an hr working at a restaurant to 0$ an hr and about to pay a butt load of money to go back to school. So when i say my makeup shopping days are over its a touchy subject. I cant even window shop because its that depressing. Im SO glad you enjoy drug store products as much as you do and i am SO glad you arent as high maintenance as the other vloggers i am subscribed to dont get me wrong i love my nicole guerriero ad jaclyn hill videos but you i truly connect with because girl das expensive forreal and you dont let me think irrationally of makeup and that how i DONT really need those 35$ lashes. Im rambling but point is ive been kind of depressed and moping since my job change and not even putting on makeup and just been sad about not having money (yes i know money doesnt buy happiness and is just money but it sucks when you dont have it anymore) but i woke up to this video and you put a smile on my face and it just really means alot. So with that sad i shall go shower actually DO my hair for the first time in over a week maybe film me doing my makeup (now that i have all this time in my hands and its been months) and for that i thank you . Last couple days have been hard to get out of bed. K im done love you and thank you for being you. Some might not appreciate it but i really do!
Hey Sasha! Thank you for your sweet comment. We all have those days. We all have really low lows and really high highs and everything will be fine. You'll get back into the swing of things! Just believe
Hi Sasha! I read ur comment and I felt it to my core. My husband was making 1800$ a week and then fell off to where I'm lucky if I could put 5$ in gas for the week. Makeup is my addiction! So it does suck seeing our RUclipsrs beautiful highlights and foundations and I just feel like left out of it all. But I been busting out my collection lately and making things work. I will find a shadow that well look as awesome as Becca opal is described. Or I'll mix my foundations with setting spray to find s lumi finish. So don't give up girl. God never gives us what we can't handle and I know that saying maybe over said but we are all stronger than we think.
Totally understand this.. It does get ridiculously old watching RUclipsrs do only high end and even say "oh that's not me" ect but it's all they do lol. Kathleen is the most real down to earth...
I read this and just wanted to say I'm so sorry you are going through this! I've been there on both sides, being broke, being comfortable, and being broke again. Someone in another comment said God won't give you what you can't candle and I fully believe that. I don't know if you're religious but I'll think of you when I pray. I love Kathleen, also, because she is so true, honest, and just beautiful! And I love her love for drug store in addition to high end.
I have to say Im with you 100%. Im waiting the arrival of our 1st baby girl & working at a great job but its only min wage which is not much to live on. But i love my makeup & now with not being able to buy makeup it gets hard watching some videos where it would cost me my annual salary to complete. I only use d/s products & love em. I have way more makeup than 1 needs anyway but i love her-this channel. She is amaxing, down to Earth & beautiful. But i wanted to just say you are fortunate being able to go to school & i bet it will all pay off. Im sure its going to be hard & tough but you can do it. We all need a perk me up every once & awhile. I hope you get ursrlf gorgeous w/out all the fancy things bc its possible. ♥♡ give urself a reward though. We all deserve a makeup goodie every once & awhile. :-)
Am I the only one scared to try new products? Like I love shopping & I could spend my money every day BUT I'm always scared to be disappointed, because I care so much about money that I don't wanna spend it in something that doesn't work. Makes sense? ^^
I love trying new products but I get nervous on how it will react on my skin. I understand about not wanting to waste money on something that would not work. I would suggest that you check out the return policy online or in store before buying and if you don't like it then you can return it and get your money back.
I hate Rimmel mascaras. All of them are too wet and mess up my eye makeup. However, I love the Rimmel Stay Matte foundation and their lip pencils are awesome!!
I have the lash accelerator mascara, and it started out too wet, but I've been using it for like 3 weeks now and it's really good. It's kind of like the Jordana BLE where you have to let it dry out a bit.
girl the rimmel stay matte primer is the worst. it made me straight up CAKEY if I wore it under liquid foundation. no matter what. I have never seen a primer that makes your skin WORSE except that one
Honestly, I do not trust beauty gurus well certain beauty gurus on certain products because they'll rave about something, talk about the discount code, then I read the comments and people are talking about all the problems they're having and it just its a turn off. I have no problem with youtubers having sponsors I get it, but it does bother me when I don't feel they're truly being honest about something or when they don't investigate a product before promoting it. Because of course that company is going to be great and wonderful to them and what they're sending but what about the rest of us. On the final note of this extremely long comment. I really do trust your opinions and reviews on products I always feel like you're being honest and sincere and that is all we ask for. :) great video it'd be cool if you did more of these
Thank you!!! I got some esqido lashes for free once and thy aren't very good either. I mean I'll use them, but once I'm done with them mmm mmmm. No more.
Thanks for letting us know about the Velour lashes!! Everyone else raves about them but $35 for fake eyelashes?! I'd rather stick to my ardell ones too now! :)
I haven't used any of these, so I can't say I agree, but I love videos like these. RUclipsrs rave so much about products they love, I find these a fun change. Looking up "products I regret buying" is how I found you in the first place, months ago!
kathleen i just found your channel last night and all i can think is...WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN HIDING? i can't believe you don't have more subscribers. i can already tell you're gonna be one of my favorite beauty girls on youtube. you're gorgeous, crack me up, and love that you rep the drugstore so much. stay you girl!! so glad i subscribed
Bring on the long videos! I loved this one 😊 These and empties are probably my favorites... oh what am I saying.. ALL your videos are my favorites. I just love you!
KathleenLights im still waiting for them to evaluate 2 pairs i sent back to VelourLashes because after only one wear the mink hair was shedding so badly i was like what 35$ and sent them an email they were super nice they told me to send it back so ill wait and see!
I freaking adore you. You are so cute and funny. I love your little accent that you talk with once in a while lol. You are great to watch. You go girl!
I had the same issues with any of the Benefit tints...what I ended up doing was "painting" them on to my ELF small stipple brush and then blending them into my cheeks. That is the ONLY way I can do it without having a patchy mess on my face. Either way, just give me a dang powder blush...I'd rather not deal with the hassle!
I apply them to my fingers first and then blend into my cheeks. This gives you an immediate blend(even faster than the stipple brush) so it's impossible to get steaks.
I was just watching your older Products I Regret videos and hoping you'd post a new one.. Love these types of videos so I know what NOT to buy. Lol what was the website you said about the reviews? I seriously am the same way about reviews and all that.. Great video again, as always! And can we just talk about the subscriber numbers that keep going up and up!! Xoxox
The way I apply the benefit tints is by dotting about 4-5 on my cheek (one cheek at a time) then rubbing it in and finally blend it out to get rid of harsh lines with the RT stippling brush!! Works great for me!! :D hope it helps you!
I am a recent subscriber and girrrrlll, let me tell you how many of your videos I have watched of yours in the last couple days... Ask me what I've accomplished on my to-do list...Nothing bc I've been too busy watching your videos! lol btw, you're sups adorbs.
I COMPLETELY agree with you about the velour lashes! I've gotten MAYBE 6-7 uses before they completely fall apart and I AM gentle. I don't put mascara on them and I don't use a lot of glue. I'm very disappointed =( they're beautiful on they just don't last!
I thought I was the only one in the world to have issues with these lashes! The only time I didn't have issue with removing glue from the band was after the first use. After that, every time I remove the glue, at least 3 pieces of hair would fall off...there goes $3 worth of hair every time. By the time I get to my 15th use, probably half of the hair will be gone.
I was SO sorry to hear about your allergic reaction to the Mario Badescu spray! I got a free sample of Mario Badescu products from Ulta this month and fell in love with his line - I talked about this spray in my October favorites blog! I recommend this to anyone who is not allergic to any of the ingredients - it really refreshes my face and I like that I can put it on top of my other creams without interfering with them. I like the rosy smell also. I totally understand why you wouldn't like it though after that allergic reaction. Just wanted to let your other viewers know that even with very sensitive skin I did not have any allergic reaction to the product, I use it every night, and I recommend it!
I would LOVE if you did a video on holiday recommendations or stuff to put on Christmas lists. I trust your judgement with all my makeup etc and so many youtubers are saying different things! It would be amazing :)
I hate how touchy people get you can say ugh I hate the cracks in the sidewalk and someone will come at you saying there's people that love them blah blah. Anyways love this video & you!
I totally agree with you on the scandaleyes mascara. I hate how sloppy it is. However, I have recently tried the Miss Manga mascara (the black and pink tube) and it is now my go to "holy grail" mascara. I used to use the line stiletto mascara but this blows it out of the water. Also, what do you think of N.Y.X products? I really like their single shadows, lip products and under eye concealers.
who would spend $35 on eyelashes anyway? good gracious. if you're marketing eyelashes for $35, they'd better last for months and be able to put themselves ON my lashes.
I know :( I'm ashamed of myself. If you think about it, it's a good deal of you can honestly get 25 uses out of them BUT YOU CANT. Ugh. I fell into the hype.
KathleenLights A lot of things on RUclips seem to be hyped up by popular gurus that aren't even that good, or at least worth the hefty price tag. IAmJustAMakeupLover made a vlog explaining how awful Gerard cosmetics are and they're always raved about by so many RUclipsrs. Haven't tried them myself so I can't really give my opinion, but it just goes to show that sometimes hype is just that - hype.
Ah totally with you on the Milani liner! I thought it was just me! If I put it on my waterline it basically just melts off like INTO my eye instantly it's so annoying!
You're a breath of fresh air girl! You're so humble and down to earth. Please promise that when you reach 5,000,000 subscribers you won't lose your sparkle
I feel you on the bizarre allergies! I'm horribly allergic to ALOE and break out and feel like my skin is on fire! Such a bummer because pretty much 80% of beauty type products (lotion, face cleansers and such) have aloe. So sad!
i totally agree on the smash box thing! I have the full exposure palette and the shimmery formula is so bad because it feels scratchy and glittery, along with having a lot of fallout.
you're so nice and so cute and your videos are so enjoyable I'm always watching them even if I'm from Italy and I can't find any of the products you're talking about and I'm using no punctuation because I want you to understand I'm like a child opening their christmas presents when I watch them!
I had the same issue with tints at first and I managed to make it work putting the tint onto the brush directly, that way you apply and blend instantly. Maybe you can try and see if it helps you use it more ^^
What I do with the benefit tints on my cheeks is put a little on the back of my hand and use my stippling brush to apply/ blend it in, it distributes it evenly and works soo much better than putting it on straight from the brush!
Lol every time you say "girl that's expensive" I just laugh so much! Stay humble, and don't ever change! And kind of random but one of the reasons I love your videos is because you don't smack your lips! I've noticed that a lot of youtubers do this weird lip smacking or tongue smacking sound lol did that even make sense
Omg!!! I have been using the Scandal Eyes Rimmer mascara for years and I use it nonstop. No other mascara compares to it!! I feel like at the beginning it's not perfect, but then once you wear it a little, it gets perfect
You just have one of those personalities that makes me think "dang, this girl would be so cool to just chill with." Love you're channel. Love your reviews.
Hi kath, rose water is actually too strong if you just spray it straight from the bottle. I think you might need to add water to it in a different container, ratio rose water 1:3. the water should be 2:3 more from the rose water. Sorry, I'm sucks at explaining but i hope you can comprehend what I'm trying to say. I hope this helps! Xx
**video request** Kathleen, can u please do a video on your favorite/most recommended contour products for fair-light skin tones (or all skin tones if u would like)? I would be forever grateful ❤ (btw, sorry I'm posting this on an older video). I love your videos & channel you give the best recommendations &seem so down to earth&honest. I hope your move this past week went smoothly & that you& danny r settled in soon.
I hope this doesn't offend you or your fans, but has anyone told you that you look like an "upgraded" version of Ariana Grande? Like, Ariana is pretty (face-wise), and you sort of look like her, but you're prettier. So, like Ariana yet not Ariana.
I love your personality :) You're just so sweet but at the same time beautiful. And, your eyeshadow is always blended to perfection! Ahhh, love your channel!
Hi Kathleen, You are probably correct. A lot of people are allergic to floral hydrosols, e.g. Rose water, and don't realize it. If you have seasonal allergies to pollen, grasses, flowering trees, I'd stay away from true florals in your products.😊
I love it when beauty gurus also show products that they're not so fond of. I think it really shows that you actually care about your videos and your viewers and you're not just doing it for the money. But anyways great video Kathleen and thx for sharing your honest opinion on these products :)
Benefit tints are terrible!!!! Korean brand tints are amazing, i regret spending money on the benefit ones whereas the korean brand tints are like 50x better and 50x cheaper 😒😒😒
Oh girl I thought I was alone in disliking the posie tint from benefit on my cheeks! I had tried it on in sephora because the color is gorgeous but I guess I waited too long on blending it out and the initial stain did not budge! It looked like a line on my cheek and it looked stupid. I love the honesty in your video and not trying to favor the higher end cosmetics because they are more popular. Keep up the videos because I will continue to watch!!
any word heard of the brand e.l.f? (eyes lips and face) its super inexpensive and works great i wear it looks fine and the brushes are really good the products are below $7.00 which is like $5.00 $6.00 $4.00 $3.00 $2.00 $1.00
I really wish you and others didn't have to give disclaimers! I know you do because some people go off the deep end if you don't like a product that they like. I just don't understand it! :)
Kathleen! Love your videos! :-) a couple tips I've tried for some of the products you talked about... The gel topcoat has to go with one of the GEL polishes, you can't use it with just the regular nail polish. Also the cheek stain I had the same problem with till just a couple months ago I figured out it worked a MILLION times better if you brush some on a pallet and use a beauty blender or stippling brush to then apply to your cheeks! :-*
Thanks for the heads-up on the Benefit Benetints. I've been saying this same thing for ages, about how quickly they stain and that I don't care for them for that reason (really hard to blend fast enough to avoid streaking/odd staining). When I saw other people raving about them, I always thought it was just me doing something wrong...I feel so validated now, LOL! Great video, Kathleen!
girl, dont apologise for your videos being long. we absolutely love hearing you rave on about the things you love and hate - thats why we watch your videos and subscribe to you in the first place :-) great video, very informative xxx
totally agree with you about the Milani eyeliner, which is why I switched to Rimmel Scandaleyes, which I currently love. My sister tried that maybelline master drama and it didn't last for her, and smudged on her upper eyelids. Wondering what you're doing differently that makes it work so well for you???
you are not alone on the sally nail gel thing!! I bought it too with high hopes and it didn't work at all, and it took forever to dry even under light :/ thank you for being so honest with your reviews! If i would of watched this before buying the sally gel thing I wouldn't have bought it. Sometimes its so hard to get "disappointing" reviews on youtube haha but this could really help prevent someone from bad buys so thank you!
Hot damn, you're gorgeous. Hot damn.
Your as pretty as Nina Dobrev...
@rociel enriquez right???? i told her she looked like nina dobrev when i first started watching her. its why i watched her first time.
HOW DID I MISS THIS COMMENT. NOO O O O. YOU ARE HOT. DAMN.
nikkkkiiiiieeeee!!!!!!
Yes
Thanks guys! I'll use the Sally Hansen top coat with the other gel polishes in that line!! Im sure it will work for me now! :)
You should look into it more before you go out and buy them. That way you won't waste your money if they are gonna end up not working well.
It still won't work honey. I used only polish that came in the kit. Not only did it chip it peeled and made the nail polish look dull!
Tutorial???
i was going to say, im pretty sure the top coat is only meant to be used with the gel colours in the same line so its weird that they only sent out the top coat in the ipsy bag! hope it works better for you! love you!
My sister used both the gel color plus the gel top coat and loved it. It lasted her a week and usually polish doesn't last her that long. So yea maybe try both together.

Thanks so much you have made my day😊😊
I hate comments like this. What if a murderer was reading this comment? Are they beautiful inside and out? Do you want their dreams to come true?

Damsel x Exactly!
"I buy everything Jaclyn tells me to buy" ahah ♥
Lolololol
we all buy everything she wants us to buy ... if its in stock lol :)
Don't we all lol
I actually used to hate shimmery eyeshadows, but oh my god, your eye makeup is GORGEOUS. I just went out and bought some frosted ones to mimic your look. So pretty. Love your videos.

I LOVE your channel! :(
Hahahah right?!!!!!!!????!?!?
I didn't mean the sad face lol sorry!
Every. Single. Time she says "Das expensive" I crack up I don't know why ahhahh am i the only one? :')
Honestly, I'm dying. Just before 7 minutes, was the best "das espensive" you've ever said LMAO
yessss and her facial expression when she said it
my favourite part! love her so funny xx
lmao i love how at first she's like i wouldn't really say this is a regret and then a second later she's like fuck it, yes, i regret it. loool
I really love that you're a beauty guru that leans more towards drugstore brands!
Seriously, nobody cares about your videos being long! You know we'll all watch you for 40 minutes straight, and then go back and watch an old one for another 40 minutes. Haha
True lol
Preach! I wish I could like your comment fifty times!🙌
Lol thank you!!!!!!!!
Seriously! I LOVE your long videos, KathleenLights and wish they were longer. :)
I thought this was gonna be a hate comment lol but I couldnt agree more.
"I buy everything Jaclyn Hill tells me to buy".... STORY OF MY LIFE! LOL.
Obsessed with your videos!! Watched like 5 vids back to back, looooove!!!!
Ohh, hi Joyce! 💕
Omg ME TOO! She's so pretty
Same here, since I discovered her channel I'm on a marathon whenever I have the time, she makes fun videos that are informative and she has a sweet personality, it's all nice and pleasant to watch ^^
Awww thank you!!!
Same with me ♡
Are you hispanic? BTW I love the accent you did in the beginning haha I kept replaying the part! LOves it!!
Also your hair is perff!!
her family is from cuba
oh thank you!!
and I have the exact same feelings about the velour lashes. Literally thought I was the only one!! I'm very 'mehhhhh' about them
I completely agree!
Idk if I'm just a rough psycho but they are way tooooo fragil. Mine won't last "25 times"
I totally agree too. You're definitely not to rough because I had the same issues and I was very very careful taking them off. They are definitely not worth the money!
Me too! I do not like them at all. I'm so sad I bought two pairs cause they're so hard to work with and make my eyes look so small =( really disappointed.
KathleenLights You're not a rough psycho lmao, i've had a pair literally fall apart in my hands i was like 'oh.'
"Touchy here on the internet." Hahahahahah, I love you!

If Emma Watson and J.Lo somehow had a baby, it would be you. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G.
So true haha I can see that
Cristina Ricci tho!
The Sally Hansen gel top coat only works with the new gel polishes Hun. Just thought I'd let you know 😘
Lol I was wondering if anyone else mentioned this. Ya it only works with the gel polishes on display with it.
Oh. Yeah that makes sense lmao
Haha I was thinking about it but I wanted to go through the comments and see if someone mentioned it already.
Do you also need to set it with the uv light?
Haha. I came down and said that because I didn't see it mentioned. Should have scrolled farther. :)
I like that you aren't super serious in makeup video.. You give some amazing comic relief. Your'e so adorable! Teach me your ways!
Honestly, I do not trust beauty gurus well certain beauty gurus on certain products because they'll rave about something, talk about the discount code, then I read the comments and people are talking about all the problems they're having and it just its a turn off. I have no problem with youtubers having sponsors I get it, but it does bother me when I don't feel they're truly being honest about something or when they don't investigate a product before promoting it. Because of course that company is going to be great and wonderful to them and what they're sending but what about the rest of us. On the final note of this extremely long comment. I really do trust your opinions and reviews on products I always feel like you're being honest and sincere and that is all we ask for. :) great video it'd be cool if you did more of these
Go watch Emily Noel. She has 2 channels, and she refuses to take money for products. She is the only you tuber I know of who doesn't take sponsorship.
***** Well hey no wonder they like them if they are getting them for free haha. I'd say they are probably worth that price!
Thank you!!! I got some esqido lashes for free once and thy aren't very good either. I mean I'll use them, but once I'm done with them mmm mmmm. No more.
KathleenLights Have you tried Koko lashes? I seen them on Lady Moss, but I barley hear anything on them.
"and girl, I buy everything Jaclyn Hill tells me to buy" hahahaha YES both of y'all are my favs on youtube
Thanks for letting us know about the Velour lashes!! Everyone else raves about them but $35 for fake eyelashes?! I'd rather stick to my ardell ones too now! :)
Me too now babe lol xxx
And they're not cruelty free!
I haven't used any of these, so I can't say I agree, but I love videos like these. RUclipsrs rave so much about products they love, I find these a fun change. Looking up "products I regret buying" is how I found you in the first place, months ago!
I am alwaaays looking at high-end makeup and changing my mind because "das espensive."
bruh same. #datbrokecollegestudentlyfe. good thing there's dupes for like everything nowadays :)
Very true!
kathleen i just found your channel last night and all i can think is...WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN HIDING? i can't believe you don't have more subscribers. i can already tell you're gonna be one of my favorite beauty girls on youtube. you're gorgeous, crack me up, and love that you rep the drugstore so much. stay you girl!! so glad i subscribed
Bring on the long videos! I loved this one 😊 These and empties are probably my favorites... oh what am I saying.. ALL your videos are my favorites. I just love you!
Aw hahah love you back!
Love how genuine you are! Just found your channel and I am obsessed. Thank you for your honesty and looking out for us! You're awesome.
$35 lashes?!!! Girllll das espensive! 😔
WHO YA TELLIN?
KathleenLights im still waiting for them to evaluate 2 pairs i sent back to VelourLashes because after only one wear the mink hair was shedding so badly i was like what 35$ and sent them an email they were super nice they told me to send it back so ill wait and see!
I just found your videos and I love them! I love your personality!
Automatically liked this video because I know I'm going to looove it!
SAME haha
I always do that as well! Haha x
Awwwww
I freaking adore you. You are so cute and funny. I love your little accent that you talk with once in a while lol. You are great to watch. You go girl!
I had the same issues with any of the Benefit tints...what I ended up doing was "painting" them on to my ELF small stipple brush and then blending them into my cheeks. That is the ONLY way I can do it without having a patchy mess on my face. Either way, just give me a dang powder blush...I'd rather not deal with the hassle!
Omg good idea I'll have to try that!
That's a great idea!!!
I apply them to my fingers first and then blend into my cheeks. This gives you an immediate blend(even faster than the stipple brush) so it's impossible to get steaks.
the reason why is because benefit tints stain quickly so dont leave it on your face for a long time and it won't be patchy! hope this helped :D
Everytime you say:'Girllll, that's expensive' it cracks me up. Recently subscribed to you and I'm loving your videos so far!
I was just watching your older Products I Regret videos and hoping you'd post a new one.. Love these types of videos so I know what NOT to buy. Lol what was the website you said about the reviews? I seriously am the same way about reviews and all that.. Great video again, as always! And can we just talk about the subscriber numbers that keep going up and up!! Xoxox
Lol!! I'm all about reviews too! Makeupalley.com!
The way I apply the benefit tints is by dotting about 4-5 on my cheek (one cheek at a time) then rubbing it in and finally blend it out to get rid of harsh lines with the RT stippling brush!! Works great for me!! :D hope it helps you!
I am a recent subscriber and girrrrlll, let me tell you how many of your videos I have watched of yours in the last couple days... Ask me what I've accomplished on my to-do list...Nothing bc I've been too busy watching your videos! lol
btw, you're sups adorbs.
Hahahah awwwwww thank you!
Same here! I've watched so many of her vids in the past week or two lolol
Bahaha me too!!! So fun!#
You're literally my favorite. Love how honest you are.
girl you had me cracking up the entire video 😂
YES I feel like more people on RUclips need to do these videos! These are just as valuable to the viewers as "favorites" videos!
I COMPLETELY agree with you about the velour lashes! I've gotten MAYBE 6-7 uses before they completely fall apart and I AM gentle. I don't put mascara on them and I don't use a lot of glue. I'm very disappointed =( they're beautiful on they just don't last!
25 TIMES MY ARSE
Haha EXACTLY!!!
I thought I was the only one in the world to have issues with these lashes! The only time I didn't have issue with removing glue from the band was after the first use. After that, every time I remove the glue, at least 3 pieces of hair would fall off...there goes $3 worth of hair every time. By the time I get to my 15th use, probably half of the hair will be gone.
I was SO sorry to hear about your allergic reaction to the Mario Badescu spray! I got a free sample of Mario Badescu products from Ulta this month and fell in love with his line - I talked about this spray in my October favorites blog! I recommend this to anyone who is not allergic to any of the ingredients - it really refreshes my face and I like that I can put it on top of my other creams without interfering with them. I like the rosy smell also. I totally understand why you wouldn't like it though after that allergic reaction. Just wanted to let your other viewers know that even with very sensitive skin I did not have any allergic reaction to the product, I use it every night, and I recommend it!
I'm in love with this video , super funny . Good job girl
Thank you!
I'm so glad I found you and started watching your videos! You're slowly becoming one of my favorites!
There's no reason to apologize. Not everything can work for everyone so it's silly (imo) for someone to get offended.
I would LOVE if you did a video on holiday recommendations or stuff to put on Christmas lists. I trust your judgement with all my makeup etc and so many youtubers are saying different things! It would be amazing :)
I'm so happy I'm not the only person who doesn't like the Benefit tints!
It's so cool to see how much makeup has changed, even in just two years!
I hate how touchy people get you can say ugh I hate the cracks in the sidewalk and someone will come at you saying there's people that love them blah blah. Anyways love this video & you!
brenda V Hahaha that's so true. People get offended really easily lol
Lmfaooo omg this comment is giving me life right now
Whatcha talking about the cracks in the sidewalk?? Hahaha jk.. So true tho!*
I totally agree with you on the scandaleyes mascara. I hate how sloppy it is. However, I have recently tried the Miss Manga mascara (the black and pink tube) and it is now my go to "holy grail" mascara. I used to use the line stiletto mascara but this blows it out of the water. Also, what do you think of N.Y.X products? I really like their single shadows, lip products and under eye concealers.
who would spend $35 on eyelashes anyway? good gracious. if you're marketing eyelashes for $35, they'd better last for months and be able to put themselves ON my lashes.
I know :( I'm ashamed of myself. If you think about it, it's a good deal of you can honestly get 25 uses out of them BUT YOU CANT. Ugh. I fell into the hype.
KathleenLights A lot of things on RUclips seem to be hyped up by popular gurus that aren't even that good, or at least worth the hefty price tag. IAmJustAMakeupLover made a vlog explaining how awful Gerard cosmetics are and they're always raved about by so many RUclipsrs. Haven't tried them myself so I can't really give my opinion, but it just goes to show that sometimes hype is just that - hype.
Ah totally with you on the Milani liner! I thought it was just me! If I put it on my waterline it basically just melts off like INTO my eye instantly it's so annoying!
Am I the only one who has kathleenlights marathon
Uh obviously not
You're a breath of fresh air girl!
You're so humble and down to earth. Please promise that when you reach 5,000,000 subscribers you won't lose your sparkle
you REALLY remind me of Jade from Little Mix. the way you look, the way you talk, everything.
thanks for being SO honest. especially with the velour lashes. love your vids!
I feel you on the bizarre allergies! I'm horribly allergic to ALOE and break out and feel like my skin is on fire! Such a bummer because pretty much 80% of beauty type products (lotion, face cleansers and such) have aloe. So sad!
i totally agree on the smash box thing! I have the full exposure palette and the shimmery formula is so bad because it feels scratchy and glittery, along with having a lot of fallout.
you're so nice and so cute and your videos are so enjoyable I'm always watching them even if I'm from Italy and I can't find any of the products you're talking about and I'm using no punctuation because I want you to understand I'm like a child opening their christmas presents when I watch them!
What a sweet comment!
Omg!! Thank you!!! That was so nice :')
KathleenLights :)
I had the same issue with tints at first and I managed to make it work putting the tint onto the brush directly, that way you apply and blend instantly. Maybe you can try and see if it helps you use it more ^^
Those lashes better do my entire eye makeup!!! 30$$$ mmmm no bye..lol
What I do with the benefit tints on my cheeks is put a little on the back of my hand and use my stippling brush to apply/ blend it in, it distributes it evenly and works soo much better than putting it on straight from the brush!
Lol every time you say "girl that's expensive" I just laugh so much! Stay humble, and don't ever change! And kind of random but one of the reasons I love your videos is because you don't smack your lips! I've noticed that a lot of youtubers do this weird lip smacking or tongue smacking sound lol did that even make sense
Oh lord I know what your talking about lol...it makes me thirsty like I need to drink water for them lol
Omg!!! I have been using the Scandal Eyes Rimmer mascara for years and I use it nonstop. No other mascara compares to it!! I feel like at the beginning it's not perfect, but then once you wear it a little, it gets perfect
omgosh is there a tutorial for this look?!?!?!
You just have one of those personalities that makes me think "dang, this girl would be so cool to just chill with."
Love you're channel. Love your reviews.
Hi kath, rose water is actually too strong if you just spray it straight from the bottle. I think you might need to add water to it in a different container, ratio rose water 1:3. the water should be 2:3 more from the rose water. Sorry, I'm sucks at explaining but i hope you can comprehend what I'm trying to say. I hope this helps! Xx
Yeah, but it had aloe and stuff in it, and it should be concentrated enough for people to be able to buy... companies fault if it's too strong
The spray is made with rosewater, it's not actually rosewater.
**video request** Kathleen, can u please do a video on your favorite/most recommended contour products for fair-light skin tones (or all skin tones if u would like)? I would be forever grateful ❤ (btw, sorry I'm posting this on an older video). I love your videos & channel you give the best recommendations &seem so down to earth&honest. I hope your move this past week went smoothly & that you& danny r settled in soon.
I wanna try that rose water spray! 😭 you should sell your stuff you don't use on insta 😁😁
I feel bad selling stuff to my viewers/ subscribers. I rather do a giveaway BUT I also think giving away used products is weird lololol
+KathleenLights hello im from philippine youre so beautiful! My god.
girl your brows give me life i can't
I hope this doesn't offend you or your fans, but has anyone told you that you look like an "upgraded" version of Ariana Grande? Like, Ariana is pretty (face-wise), and you sort of look like her, but you're prettier. So, like Ariana yet not Ariana.
JRZY DY yes yes. you've just said it haha.
JRZY DY hehehe my name is Ariana
Girl you have absolutely gorgeous, glowing skin!!
Girl. Das espensive. I die when you say this!! 😂😂😂 you are so comical to watch. Ps- I buy everything Jaclyn Hill recommends too 😳
lol I loooove her
I love your personality :) You're just so sweet but at the same time beautiful. And, your eyeshadow is always blended to perfection! Ahhh, love your channel!
Hi Kathleen,
You are probably correct. A lot of people are allergic to floral hydrosols, e.g. Rose water, and don't realize it. If you have seasonal allergies to pollen, grasses, flowering trees, I'd stay away from true florals in your products.😊
I love it when beauty gurus also show products that they're not so fond of.
I think it really shows that you actually care about your videos and your viewers and you're not just doing it for the money.
But anyways great video Kathleen and thx for sharing your honest opinion on these products :)
Benefit tints are terrible!!!! Korean brand tints are amazing, i regret spending money on the benefit ones whereas the korean brand tints are like 50x better and 50x cheaper 😒😒😒
I love your videos!!! I could watch you for 24 hours straight!!! I totally agree with you on the velour lashes!
"Girl Das Expensive." lol!
Oh girl I thought I was alone in disliking the posie tint from benefit on my cheeks! I had tried it on in sephora because the color is gorgeous but I guess I waited too long on blending it out and the initial stain did not budge! It looked like a line on my cheek and it looked stupid.
I love the honesty in your video and not trying to favor the higher end cosmetics because they are more popular. Keep up the videos because I will continue to watch!!
Put it on your hand and then use a stipple brush, or I just read someone applies it to their finger and then to their cheek!
"Regwet? What?!" 😂
Hahahah
i love the eye primer from the fergie line!!! best primer i ever used from the drugstore! it doesnt crease at all and lasts all night
any word heard of the brand e.l.f? (eyes lips and face) its super inexpensive and works great i wear it looks fine and the brushes are really good the products are below $7.00 which is like $5.00 $6.00 $4.00 $3.00 $2.00 $1.00
girl. everyone knows
Amanda Zhang XD good i just never see youtubers use it :T
nikkigamming45 msp Some of their products are hit and miss.
Anna Parks :T true..
But they're good nonetheless! :D
Oh my gosh I love your videos! The quality is amazing and the topics are professional super easy to understand!! Defiantly my new go to for reviews :)
The mario badescu spray gave me little red bumps too :-(
Love love love your makeup in the video is there a tutorial for it?!
I really wish you and others didn't have to give disclaimers! I know you do because some people go off the deep end if you don't like a product that they like. I just don't understand it! :)
Kathleen! Love your videos! :-) a couple tips I've tried for some of the products you talked about... The gel topcoat has to go with one of the GEL polishes, you can't use it with just the regular nail polish. Also the cheek stain I had the same problem with till just a couple months ago I figured out it worked a MILLION times better if you brush some on a pallet and use a beauty blender or stippling brush to then apply to your cheeks! :-*
She looks just like a young Britney Spears
I've been thinking she looks like Jamie Lynn spears!
Thanks for the heads-up on the Benefit Benetints. I've been saying this same thing for ages, about how quickly they stain and that I don't care for them for that reason (really hard to blend fast enough to avoid streaking/odd staining). When I saw other people raving about them, I always thought it was just me doing something wrong...I feel so validated now, LOL! Great video, Kathleen!
girl, dont apologise for your videos being long. we absolutely love hearing you rave on about the things you love and hate - thats why we watch your videos and subscribe to you in the first place :-) great video, very informative xxx
totally agree with you about the Milani eyeliner, which is why I switched to Rimmel Scandaleyes, which I currently love. My sister tried that maybelline master drama and it didn't last for her, and smudged on her upper eyelids. Wondering what you're doing differently that makes it work so well for you???
you are not alone on the sally nail gel thing!! I bought it too with high hopes and it didn't work at all, and it took forever to dry even under light :/ thank you for being so honest with your reviews! If i would of watched this before buying the sally gel thing I wouldn't have bought it. Sometimes its so hard to get "disappointing" reviews on youtube haha but this could really help prevent someone from bad buys so thank you!
I found your videos lastnight, and i'm obsessed already haha
I just discovered you and it was instant love!! Loved when you do the accent bits xD.
Defintely subscribed!! ♥
subscribed to you about a week or 2 ago and i have to say i love your videos. they are very detailed and entertaining xo
