That eye look turned out beautifully! It's been fun to watch to watch your makeup routine evolve over the years and it makes me feel more comfortable with my own changes as I age. I didn't grow up near a shore but the sounds of a field - birds singing, cicadas, crickets and night peepers at night - all take me to a very happy place. I don't comment often but I'm still an avid fan. Thanks for sharing yourself with all of us.
Awe...thank you Maxine! I still use the palettes you so graciously sent me! And yes to the Cicadas! Lol! So gross, that I used to actually play with them when I was little...their legs were so sticky. Ewe! 😄 Thank you for sticking around! 🤗🌺
I agree with you about children. They're the future and just so much fun. I think it's beautiful when someone wears their heart on their sleeve the way you do. The final look was perfect!
so enjoy your chats. my favorite sound is the waves hitting the shore.. I summered at the beach throughout my youth and it brings me peace and great memories.
I could watch your videos all day!! My favorite sound is the sound of the rain coming down slowly at night! It puts me to sleep! My husband says I’m also a crybaby because I cry all the time about our kids! Also, my son is 10 and he has a condition called Dandy Walker Variant which affects his brain. He still goes to regular classes though. I’m amazed by how resilient kids are because my son is so determined despite his condition 😊Now I’m crying 😟
Me too, with my kids! My daughter was singing a song to me the other day and I just had tears rolling down my face. Lol! Oh my goodness, I totally get where you're coming from. Like you, I'm so proud of my son for his determination, but he definitely struggles sometimes. And when I ever decide to speak about any of his struggles with ANYONE, I'm always choking back the tears! You're so sweet Sarah! 💖
Hi Jenifer. I loved your look!! Just gorgeous as always! I just went to the dark side myself. I started wearing the Ardell Natural lashes!! You are right! Only wore them for 4 days but I’m addicted!!! You will love them!! Please go there! Your natural beautifulness will be even more beautiful!!💝💝💝
Thank you girl! I think I might venture over to the dark side too! Lol! My step mom just started recently wearing them, and it's just amazing how nicely it enhances her looks! 🌺
I also grew up in a beach city and I miss it so much! The sound of moving water and seagulls makes me feel like it’s summer and there are no problems in the world. :D For some reason it is very calming.
I'm 26, don't really use much of any of the retin-a or peels and yet i'm obsessed with just watching your videos because you just engage me. Keep up the great videos :)
If you cut the lashes in half, they are cake to put on and the trick to removing is to put oil (I like baby oil) on a make off pad and hold it on each eye for 15 to 30 seconds to soften the glue and then they slide right off. Don't blame me if you get addicted! :-) xoxo
You look so pretty! Stop berating your abilities, you are awesome and sweet , loving and kind. It’s clear you are very compassionate and caring which is what we need more of. That eye cream you recommended is amazing! I’ve only used it for one week and I’ve seen a difference. Didn’t think that was even possible! Thanks so much. ❤️
Thank you Bonnie! 💖 I'm so glad you like the eye cream! I love it!! Like I said, I use it all over my face and neck since a little goes a long way and it spreads so easily. Hope you're having a fantastic weekend! 🤗💜
Jenifer, you are beautiful! The eyeshadow colors look great with your eye color. I love chatty grwm videos, it helps me so much to see how others put makeup on. Thanks, lovely! ❤❤
I found your channel a while ago when I was looking for ladies over 40. I am 43 and have loved makeup my whole life. New as you may be to eye shadow, I am far from it ,and you gave a wonderful tip that I have been doing ever since. Pat that eye shadow on these aging, and in my case hooded, eye lids. I have not swept shadow on in forever. Thank you so much as I would have never thought of it.:D
Jenifer, I think I've watched almost all of her videos, her technique is perfect, so different to the rest of youtubers, she worths it and you are followings her steps. Congratulations.😊
Hi Jennifer!! Laurie from Pride i. Photos did an excellent job on her eye color video.I love the sound of Seagulls and Children!! I had 5!!! (Lost one) I would have had more if I could. Nothing makes me happier then when my kids have friends over and I can hear them laughing and having fun. I also worked in the cafeteria as a supervise when my kids were in elementary school. Now my youngest is in 6th grade, so I miss the littles!! Even my 20 year old daughter and her friends seem like children to me. I can relate to everything you said about being around kids😄. I’m so glad my daughters didn’t pluck too. I love their thick brows!!! Beautiful makeup look!! Have a happy Sunday!!! XO, Dawn💕💗
I'm so sorry to hear that you lost a child. 😟 I wonder if you enjoyed pregnancy like I did, I LOVED it!!! Had I started having children earlier, I would have definitely had more! Isn't that crazy that 20 yr olds seem like children to us? Lol! I think it's so neat that we both have 6th graders. 🤗💙
I know this is an old video BUT I had to stop to comment....of course children love you...you are an empath...look it up...I an an INFJ, HSP, empath myself and I knew after watching your first video that you are an angel on earth! I can feel your kind soul! I also can feel that you are very hard on yourself...I do not know enough to know why BUT I can tell that you never want to hurt anyone and something causes you not to give yourself that same kindness and grace! I hope you understand that this isn't meant to put you down its meant so that you will realize how beautiful you are, how perfectly you live your life and that others especially your family will always get your undivided attention...which makes you an angel on earth! Living where you live sounds like heaven on earth...the beach and seagulls! Keep being blessed and keep trusting yourself that you are wonderfully made by your parents and God! 🌺🙏😘
Oh my gosh, you are so sweet! I have been told before that I was an empath, and when I researched it, I really do believe that I am! I’ve always had a sensitive heart, but once I had kids, they really pushed it into overdrive. ❤️ I appreciate you taking the time to leave this message, it means so much to me! 🌺🌸🌺
Whenever I'm a lil stressed and need to wind down , I put waves crashing on for music and take a lil nap . I am a counselor with grade school children , I love them too ! I agree with the movies , it's awful I can't watch them . I fall to pieces when a child is crying in the grocery school 😉
Oh my goodness me too!!! My heart always goes out to both the child and the mommy! I just remember how panicked I'd get when my babies would start crying in a public place. Lol! 💖
Jenifer, I wanted to share with you this product I don't know if you have heard of it but it's great for cold sores it's called HL 30 it's a lip balm you can find it at Walmart in the chap stick area. Also you can use Mylanta & Benadryl mix equal parts together and apply to the cold sore it helps dry it up the Benadryl helps numb it also. If those don't work ask your dentist to prescribe you something for them. My daughter & husband suffers from them also. This works great for them. Have a Blessed Weekend!
You look beautiful and did a great job on this look. I will have to try this color combo, since I have hazel green eyes. Listening to you talk about the ocean and music was awesome. I love both so much also. I was such a beach girl growing up and have always lived close to the ocean, regardless of where I was (I've lived in Hawaii, San Diego and now in Houston Tx where I was born and raised. I've been to South Padre Island so many times, so I know your area well, where you spent your beach time. My favorite sound is listening to the ocean and waves break also. The ocean does something to me that I can't describe. One of my favorite memories is when I lived on the North Shore across from pipeline. I would just lay on the hammock and listen/watch the waves break. I miss it there. You have a beautiful daughter. They grow up so quickly, don't they? I love this style of chat video and hope you do more. ❤
Thank you! And yes, they do grow up fast...too fast! 💙 Do you have children? Oh my gosh, the thought of laying in a hammock and just listening to waves crash sounds incredible! But let's not forget the pina colada...even better! 😄🌺
You are so refreshing and real! Sounds that I like, rain. Distant thunder. I can hear music, but not what is playing. Your daughter is beautiful, like her mom! Your final look is really pretty. Just use some bronzer to warm up the perimeter of your face and under your cheekbones and you don't have to buy another foundation color, until you have time to get to the store. :)
I was a daddy’s girl until about 13 and then my mother and I bonded. We were very close until the day she passed away at 62. Not enough time with her. Cherish every milestone. ❤️
Hello there! I found you through Anne-Marie. Subscribed b/c I found you so relate-able! So many times throughout this video, I kept thinking, 'Wow, that reminds me of me.' Looking forward to more of your videos.
You are such a sweet person & I love how you keep it real when making your videos. You look beautiful with or without makeup, but I do love the "dramatic" look on you. Not that it really mattered, because you are beautiful inside & out, but your makeup application is really coming along & I'm happy to see you enjoy stepping "out of the box" every now & then! What I enjoy most is feeling like we're two friends just doing our makeup together! LOL! I know it sounds silly, but @ my age of 43, I'm looking for more than just tutorials or straight reviews. Anyway, keep the great vids coming. Uh-oh, I used the word "anyway." LOL! Thanks Jen!
So beautiful! I feel exactly like you about my babies! (16 & 18) I used to volunteer once a week also. I will always treasure those times! God bless 🌸🌸🌸 As a side note; I can’t separate myself from news stories or movies when children are physically or emotionally hurt. I always picture my kids and it will eat at me. It’s a spiritual battle for me!
Oh my goodness, me too!! I get so freaked out when news stories involve kid! 😟 It's funny because there are some days when I don't feel like volunteering because there are so many things I may have to get done at home, but once I walk through the door and all the kids come to hug me, my heart practically explodes! 😍💞❣
Love the look, Jenifer! You did a marvelous job! I'm very makeup challenged myself and I was able to pick up a few pointers from you so thanks loads! I also love, love the sounds of crashing waves and seagulls as they remind me of our family vacations on lake Huron in Canada. How wonderful that you're so passionate about kids! I'm sure you're a blessing to them as they are to you. Have a great weekend. Lots of love to you! ♡♡♡
Very pretty look! I've never used false lashes either but have been thinking a lot about lately. Beauty really runs in your family, mom and daughter are gorgeous also! I would have to say my favorite sound is the ocean as well.
You’re daughter is gorgeous and you’re the best mom ever taking her to get her 💅🏻 nails done Mother daughter bonding is the best! You’re makeup always looks beautiful and thanks for reminding me that I need to start using your tip of using niaminicde on my eyelids.
Awe...thank you! 🌺 I love mommy/daughter bonding...it's so special! I'm just trying to really appreciate every moment since I know she's not going to stay young forever. 💖
gorgeous look ...I'm newly diagnosed with thyroid disease a week ago after having health issues for years ..I suffered major allergies when in fact I barely have allergies and the last 5 years I've gained weight and skin rashes ..My TSH was 3.79 T2 was eh but T3 and T4 were playing nasty .. Would you consider doing a video on symptoms of thyroid disease ? I know you talk some about it .
As a 48YO woman, I thank you for all your informative and fun videos! Have you considered growing/drawing your brows a bit thicker? I think it makes us look younger. I over-plucked in the 90s and started Microblading 2 years ago.
You're absolutely right. 😊 I think I'm going to try to tattoo them in a bit thicker. Anytime I try to draw or powder them thicker, it never fails, I end up accidentally rubbing some off and then I have wonky looking, uneven brows. Lol! 😄
I love the darker makeup on you. I bet browns would look amazing on your green eyes. Your daughter is so beautiful, just like her mama. I’m from Texas also. How are you liking this cold in the morning, hot in the afternoon weather? Have a great week...God Bless! xoxo Jeannie
I thought the look was really pretty. I use careprost for eyelash growth, and it works so good that I look like I am wearing false eyelashes...I know there can be side effects, but I have not had any problems and I have used it for a year. Thanks for,showing us a picture of your daughter. Oh my gosh, she is stunning . Thanks for the tutorial...xoxo
Thank you so much for the complement about my daughter! 💜 I've heard about Careprost, I may have to try it out. I would love to have eyelashes that looked like falsies! 😊
+Jenifer Jenkins you would love careprost. One of the side effects is it actually makes them curl. I have not used an eyelash curler since my lashes have grown...
💋Jenifer, Love u and loved this! Daughter is beautiful! Seriously your moms pic, there is some brilliant beautiful genes running in the fam! I just adore u too. Sending you and your family lots of love and blessings. Love and Light 💖Carli. btw: your hair looks so full and healthy and I just picked this eyeshadow palette up. I have light green eyes too.
Thank you so much Carli for all the sweet things you say! 💜🌺 And I think you'll love that little quad...it's so easy to work with! I bought a couple more in different shades since they were so cheap. 😊
Hi Jeni. I just found your channel. I live in the uk. I simply had to subscribe to you. I have similar problems with crepey hooded eyes. I was beginning to think i was the only person who does'nt do the swiping method. lol. I agree it makes my eyelids look worse. I had stopped wearing shadow, but think after watching you i'll give it another try. My daughter was born with an underactive thyroid glad, so totally understand how it affects you both. Your daughter is beautiful as is her mum. I also prefer music to tv. And love the memories it brings back. You are an absolute pleasure to watch, so lovely. Sending love from a very cold uk. Would love to live near a beach. Wearing flipflops is something i can only dream about. Boots and scarf are essentials in the uk. Mandy. Sorry about long comment. Xx💖🇬🇧
Awe...I loved reading your comment! I've wanted to give up on eye shadows a few times too because I didn't want to do all the sweeping and tugging on my already weak and sagging eye lids. AND because I couldn't find a primer that didn't make my eyelids look 10 yrs older. But little by little I'm trying to come up with things that work for me and my particular eye shape and issues. Because at the end of the day, I like to be able to camouflage my aging eyes with makeup. 😉 I hope you're able to wear flip flops on a beach sometime soon! 🌺🤗
Jennifer, such a pretty look! By the way you are young young young in comparison to me in my late 60’s!!!!!😮not sure how that happened. I loved this chatty GRWM💕. Thankyou for sharing your ❤️
Isn't that something? The other day I was looking in the mirror and literally thought to myself..."You are about to be 45. 45!" I'm like you, how did this happen? But it's okay, I plan to live till at least 120. Lol! Thank you so much for your sweet words! 💙🌺
Hi Jenifer, being emotional shows you have a big heart also the kids are attracted to the great energy you give out. Great job your makeup looks fab. Enjoyed the chit chat. Thanx. Boy your mum is beautiful. Thanx again. 💕💕
I can tell when my thyroid is off because I start to lose eyebrow hair. My MD thought I was nuts at first but every time (every few years) I would call and say “things are off, I am losing brows” she would test and my labs were off. I have never had a problem with weight and being hypothyroid, I always have stayed pretty thin.
I feel like I can always tell too, so I'll hurry up and set an apt to get my blood work checked and then it's always fine and I'm left feeling so confused. Lol! But it drives me crazy when I lose eyebrow hairs because I don't really have many to spare. Lol! 😄
You are just so lovely! I am going to find that blush, because this girl needs all the "natural glow" I can get! :) FYI: I don't watch sad movies either, and I haven't watched a horror film since 1995. Honestly, if it doesn't make me laugh I'm not interested. Life is too short to spend it crying or scared! Great video, loved it!
There are certain commercials with parents and children that get me crying every time. I figure I may as well embrace my sentimental heart! TAKE CARE!!! : )
Perfect try some Blink Monika is using it right now. Or any enhancing eyelash serum. I'm using one in the UK so far so good. You are adorable Jen. Same sounds as you born in Dartmouth UK. right by the Royal Naval college. So crashing waves seagulls. ..yes. And music. Just listened to Goyte from 6 years ago feat Kimba you didn't have to cut me out. Just love any type of music. But some a lot moves me to my soul. And I must have listened to this about 8btimes, on looping. I just love it the video is pretty good. That might be what got me first lol. You did an amazing job. Ms Jenkins. Been there I volunteered same school for both my boys for a long time. I'd go in and I had pictures and paintings waiting for me. UK rainy days so kids could do what they wanted lol xxx 💖💗💝 xxx Don't let her cut her hair. On my instagram I have a pic of me younger. When I went to my next school I cut my hair. Mistake. X
Lol! I will totally do that too...listen to the same songs on loop until I'm sick of it. Ha! And then I'll come back to it later and time travel with it. 😊 My daughter is always wanting me to cut her hair. She says she wants it to be my length and I'm like, "Um...NOOOOO!" Lol! She has no idea how lucky she is to have such thick long hair! I think I've convinced her for now, but I may not be so convincing once she gets a little older. 💖
Jenifer Jenkins Yeah no one tried to talk me out of it, it never grew back as strong as it was. It did grow back blummin curly. Now I'd love it like that lol. It's long now. With your knowledge though, I'm sure if your daughter regrets it you can sort that. That's quite the compliment though, same as yours. Good luck, problem with school you see people and think I'd ,love to look like that. Bet you any money people would love to have her hair. xxx I would my Grandaughter is six She's trying like crazy to grow her hair like mine. But she has mum's thin hair. So I'm 54 & she envy's my hair !!! I've told her things she needs to eat to thicken it. But she's so picky about food. I'll keep trying. xxx
Hi Jenifer!! Omg I can relate to so much of what you said in this video!! I was a first grade teacher for ten years before I had my children. I taught students that came from very diverse and difficult backgrounds. I wanted to take some home with me , it broke my heart knowing how awful their home lives were. When I had my own kids I volunteered all the time , so yes I totally hear you. It’s funny now because my oldest is a senior in college and the youngest two are in high school. Now I volunteer with the marching band and lots of those little kids I used to help in elementary school are taller than me!!! Weird, for sure. And I also adore the beach and my husband watches that zombie show too lol. You look beautiful in those colors, and I hope you are enjoying your weekend!❤️🌺😊
Oh my gosh, we're so much alike! It breaks my heart when I find out that some of the kids in my son's classes have terrible home-lives. I try to give them extra attention and affection when I'm around them. I remember one little girl was in his class and then she was no longer there. His teacher told me that her dad, whom she lived with, put her in foster care. I cried right then and there. Every child deserves to be loved and paid attention to. Hope you're having a wonderful weekend! 💙🌺
Jenifer Jenkins I definitely agree, every child most definitely deserves a good start in life. After experiencing these things as a teacher that is what made up my mind about staying home with my own children. I was so frustrated trying to help other people’s children, I knew the biggest impact I could truly make was on my own children. So that is what I personally had to do. Love you, the world needs more moms like you🌈
Hi Jenifer, do you use something on your lips to make them look so plump? I'm finding the older I'm getting the thinner my lips are becoming. I really do not want injections in my lips though. Thanks for any advice pretty lady!
Hey girl! No, I don't, and mine are getting thinner too. 😟 I was just looking at a picture of me when I was about 17 and my lips seemed to be fuller. The only thing I do for my lips is LIVE in chapstick. Like, I have about 5 tubes in my purse and just as many in my night-stand. I've been addicted to chapstick since my early 20's. It's usually what I use instead of lipstick even, so that may have saved my lips a tad, but not as much I'd like. 💖
Jenifer Jenkins That's so funny because I'm the same way when it comes to Chapstick! They are in my purse, in the cars, in my coat pockets and on my nightstand..lol. Thanks for the feedback! I greatly appreciate it😊
Hi Jenifer, I like you because you're so authentic, "a free soul", I am alternating tretinoin 0,05% with 5% glycolic acid, I peel enough, and my skin doesn't irritate or turns red, I'm satisfied with the results, of course sometimes I have to makeup and my flakes don't look good, but I accept it, I use a mask made with oat flour and milk, very soft, from time to time and it helps me with the peeling, your makeup technique is similar to Lisa Eldridge's, so subtle not to damaging your skin, the result of your eyelids makeup...beautiful. My favorite sound is children laughing and the beach waves too, make me feel so happy.Thank you for sharing your life and thoughts😘
I love that blush! Definitely going to pick some up. Blush actually is my favorite makeup product. I feel like it just gives such a beautiful glow and emphasis to my cheek bones, I feel naked without it 😂
Fantastic video Jenifer👏🏻 Like you, I have the same hooded downturned lids😭😂 So some of the UA-camrs eye looks just do not work for me🙄 Your dramatic eye look turned out fabby😍 A bit off topic but why the change in your RetinA application? Hope you don't mind me asking? Xx
Thank you so much Nicola! Us, downturned hoodies have to stick together. Lol! 😄 I just wanted to try something new with my skincare. Although, I love the way my skin looks after it sheds every week, I don't care for the flaking and shedding process, so I thought I'd see how quickly I could work my way up using a lower strength, and if I would like the way my skin looked better. I've only been using this strength for about 3 weeks and already I'm up to every other day, however there is still a little bit of shedding, but it's so minimal. So we'll see. I'm just trying something new....paying real close attention to my forehead lines, to see if I see improvement. 💖
Jenifer Jenkins I've suffered dry, eczema, sensitive skin my whole life, however, watching the fabby MaryEllen encouraged me to try new skincare! Started Timeless products slowly last April an amazingly no dry, lizard, scaley skin for the first time in 47yrs🎉😂 Any products I had ever tried before would just irritate an dry me up so in the end I just used Olay sensitive beauty fluid for around 20 years, til the amazing Timeless🙌🏻 In November started the Spanish RetinA Reterides 0.025% once a week with little or no peelies👏🏻 I'm now every other night still no peelies😬 but its about to run out! I also bought the 0.005% last year in Spain but tbh I am actually scared to start using it as I've had such an easy time wi the 0.025😳 Im just gonna do exactly the same thing an hope fir the best🤞🏻🙏🏻🤞🏻🙏🏻🤞🏻😂😂 Your skin looks absolutely amazing an your forehead lines are practically invisible😍 Have a great day☺️ xx
Your hair color is perfect 👌🏼. Don’t feel bad I have silver hair toward the front too 🙄. There is a lot of people on youtube especially if there in their early 40’s that are going grey and look fabulous. The sound of the ocean 🌊 is always relaxing. I don’t watch a lot of television either. I have not tried the CoverGirl mascara. Watch out she may need her own UA-cam channel one day. Your daughter is so fortunate to have such beautiful eyebrows and long lashes. I don’t wear false lashes either. I dint follow the make up trends either. I do what works for me too. I like the NYX lip liners too. But the Maybelline vivid hot lacquer in tease is perfect on you. What a stunning look Melissa. Stay fabulous and enjoy your weekend. Aloha 🌺...Ranalynn
Thank you so much Ranalynn! Yes, the ocean!! The funny thing is, I love the beach so much, but I rarely get in the water because I'm so afraid of sharks. Lol! 😄
Ello Jennifer 😊 I really enjoyed this chatty video, actually I've started to put my make up on ,while watching /listening to you🤗 ( and a SEAGULLS 😛) I also live by the sea, so I know what you mean by : not wearing a heavy makeup is the best way to be🤗 Exept that if you live in small SEASIDE town or in my case village, your appearance and fashion style always goes with your lifestyle 🤗 I wonder what is your view on Sunscreens with a hint of tint😂 or BB/CC /DD creams😂 with hight SPF....instead of foundation for the Hot Summery months? It's so much stuff like that on the market these days, and the more there is , the more confused I am🤔 I struggle with the same skin problems as you, and hyperpigmentation is one of them I also use Retin-A and my skin is flaking a little bit, pretty much all the time , therefore I thought... More Creamy texture of some kind of Tinted Base with hydrating and correcting properties plus SPF would be The best thing I could put on my face🤔🤗🤔🤗 I found you very competent and knowledgeable... with a real passion for staying youthful and healthy. I do trust your opinion and recommendations 🤗 Ps 1 I did try to find out if you have done any videos about it, but had no luck. . Thank you Hun 😍😍😍
Thank you so much Ania! 🤗 I'm on the lookout for a good CC cream myself. I hear so many ladies rave about the IT Cosmetics CC Cream SPF 50. I've been meaning to give it a try. I think I'll go ahead and purchase it since the summer months are quickly approaching. From day to day, if I'm just running errands, I'll use my Colorescience Sunforgettable SPF 50. It's a mineral powder with sunscreen and I just love it! But it's a little pricey. However if I know I'm going to be outdoors for any extended period of time I ALWAYS wear a cream based sunscreen, but I'm not crazy them, so I'm definitely looking for a tinted one that can double as a foundation. And some women that have reviewed the IT Cosmetics one, say they do just that. 💖💜💙
What color do you use on your roots? I also have a lot of silver on top and on the sides, but I have a very hard time covering the silver and my hair is the same color as yours. Thanks
I use the Revlon Dark Ash Blonde. I made a video about how I color my base, so I'll attach it here. But just so you know, I've tried SEVERAL brands of hair color, and this one just seems to turn out the best. At first it seems a little dark at my roots, but after a few washes, it comes out to be a nice light ash blonde rather than dark ash blonde. Especially where my hair is the most silver. Here's the video 💜: ua-cam.com/video/FT1IC3TvvfE/v-deo.html
also check vitamin d level. I too have thyroid disease but my vitamin d was way to low. and also causes hair loss. Tiredness also. A lot of people have low d levels because we are all wearing a lot of sunscreen which keeps the natural D rays from us. just some fyi
My first injections were in March of 2016 and I got 1.5 syringe in total. I did get a touch up in March of 2017, but that time I only got 1/2 syringe to touch up the inside corners. It's been a year since then and I honestly don't think any of it has dissolved. In case you're wondering about price...the first time I paid $1000 for 1.5 syringe. I was charged $700 for a full syringe and $300 for 1/2 syringe (she discounted the 1/2 syringe because I had bruised so bad).. When I got the touch up a year later, I went to a different plastic surgeon who charges $375 for a 1/2 syringe and $525 for a full syringe. 😊
LOL I'm sorta ready...I'm hiding under ballcaps, bandanas and wigs while I see what color is actually under all this...if it's just gray nope I'm not ready but if it's white like my momma then I might be...don't know yet ;) That sound for me is rain on a trailer tin roof ;) Gosh I think that look came out really pretty Jenifer. My hubby prefers no makeup too...yea that's not happening ALL THE TIME..I give him plenty of days of no makeup but when I wear it...I wear it LOL Love ya GF! xoxo Mary
I laughed out loud when you said, "If it's just gray, nope I'm not ready". 😄 I think it's sweet that our hubbies are cool with less makeup. I guess the alternative would be that they express their preference for MORE makeup. Now that would be a little disheartening. Lol! Thank you Mary! 💙🌺
Yes! I know this too! I can't look at films, in which children are hurt! Do you know the film "Pet Sematary"! I can't look it, since i have children on my one! It's horrible, what happens to the little boy. I can't look it. I like your GRWM and TALK very much! And i love it, listen to your voice and to the content you're telling us! Again a wonderful video. Thank you so much for it!😍😍💜💜
No, I don't. When I've done that in the past it seems to really accentuate any discoloration I have on my face. But because of that, I'm definitely going to have to purchase a darker foundation. 😉💙
That eye look turned out beautifully! It's been fun to watch to watch your makeup routine evolve over the years and it makes me feel more comfortable with my own changes as I age. I didn't grow up near a shore but the sounds of a field - birds singing, cicadas, crickets and night peepers at night - all take me to a very happy place. I don't comment often but I'm still an avid fan. Thanks for sharing yourself with all of us.
Awe...thank you Maxine! I still use the palettes you so graciously sent me! And yes to the Cicadas! Lol! So gross, that I used to actually play with them when I was little...their legs were so sticky. Ewe! 😄 Thank you for sticking around! 🤗🌺
Jennifer, You are one of a handful you tubers I give a thumbs up before I watch. I always love you and your content. Thank you. xo
Oh how sweet, thank you so much Debra! 🤗🌺💙
I love the sound of thunder. An intense tropical thunderstorm gives me life!
That's so interesting! I actually quite like the sound of thunder too! 🌺
I love this videos. I'm 42 and i need more realistic videos like this.
I agree with you about children. They're the future and just so much fun. I think it's beautiful when someone wears their heart on their sleeve the way you do. The final look was perfect!
Thank you so much Trish! 💖💜💙
so enjoy your chats. my favorite sound is the waves hitting the shore.. I summered at the beach throughout my youth and it brings me peace and great memories.
Hi Marie 🌺 Ahhh...the good ole days...when we had no idea about the dangers of Sun exposure. Lol! 😄
I could watch your videos all day!! My favorite sound is the sound of the rain coming down slowly at night! It puts me to sleep! My husband says I’m also a crybaby because I cry all the time about our kids! Also, my son is 10 and he has a condition called Dandy Walker Variant which affects his brain. He still goes to regular classes though. I’m amazed by how resilient kids are because my son is so determined despite his condition 😊Now I’m crying 😟
Me too, with my kids! My daughter was singing a song to me the other day and I just had tears rolling down my face. Lol! Oh my goodness, I totally get where you're coming from. Like you, I'm so proud of my son for his determination, but he definitely struggles sometimes. And when I ever decide to speak about any of his struggles with ANYONE, I'm always choking back the tears! You're so sweet Sarah! 💖
Hi Jenifer. I loved your look!! Just gorgeous as always! I just went to the dark side myself. I started wearing the Ardell Natural lashes!! You are right! Only wore them for 4 days but I’m addicted!!! You will love them!! Please go there! Your natural beautifulness will be even more beautiful!!💝💝💝
Thank you girl! I think I might venture over to the dark side too! Lol! My step mom just started recently wearing them, and it's just amazing how nicely it enhances her looks! 🌺
I also grew up in a beach city and I miss it so much! The sound of moving water and seagulls makes me feel like it’s summer and there are no problems in the world. :D For some reason it is very calming.
Yes...calming! I also love the smell of Coppertone. Lol! 💖
I'm 26, don't really use much of any of the retin-a or peels and yet i'm obsessed with just watching your videos because you just engage me. Keep up the great videos :)
Yasmin Traini Oh my goodness, how sweet! Thank you so much!! ❤💜💙
If you cut the lashes in half, they are cake to put on and the trick to removing is to put oil (I like baby oil) on a make off pad and hold it on each eye for 15 to 30 seconds to soften the glue and then they slide right off. Don't blame me if you get addicted! :-) xoxo
Thanks for the tip Elle! I think I'm going to take the plunge! 😄
You look so pretty! Stop berating your abilities, you are awesome and sweet , loving and kind. It’s clear you are very compassionate and caring which is what we need more of. That eye cream you recommended is amazing! I’ve only used it for one week and I’ve seen a difference. Didn’t think that was even possible! Thanks so much. ❤️
Thank you Bonnie! 💖 I'm so glad you like the eye cream! I love it!! Like I said, I use it all over my face and neck since a little goes a long way and it spreads so easily. Hope you're having a fantastic weekend! 🤗💜
You always look so pretty! I like that shade of blush on you, I'll have to check it out at the store! xoxo
Thank you Anne! Hope you're having a fabulous weekend girl! 🌺🤗
Jenifer, you are beautiful! The eyeshadow colors look great with your eye color. I love chatty grwm videos, it helps me so much to see how others put makeup on. Thanks, lovely! ❤❤
Thank you so much Connie! I appreciate you watching! 💜🤗
I found your channel a while ago when I was looking for ladies over 40. I am 43 and have loved makeup my whole life. New as you may be to eye shadow, I am far from it ,and you gave a wonderful tip that I have been doing ever since. Pat that eye shadow on these aging, and in my case hooded, eye lids. I have not swept shadow on in forever. Thank you so much as I would have never thought of it.:D
Oh that's great!! I'm just trying to preserve my already aging eyes. No sense in speeding up the process. 😉💜🌺
Jenifer, I think I've watched almost all of her videos, her technique is perfect, so different to the rest of youtubers, she worths it and you are followings her steps. Congratulations.😊
I'm so glad you told me about her! I have no idea why I've never stumbled upon her myself, but thank you! 💖
I love your videos!!! You are so "real" and it's refreshing to have a relatable person doing makeup videos❤.
Thank you so much Jodie! 🤗💖
Hi Jennifer!! Laurie from Pride i. Photos did an excellent job on her eye color video.I love the sound of Seagulls and Children!! I had 5!!! (Lost one) I would have had more if I could. Nothing makes me happier then when my kids have friends over and I can hear them laughing and having fun. I also worked in the cafeteria as a supervise when my kids were in elementary school. Now my youngest is in 6th grade, so I miss the littles!! Even my 20 year old daughter and her friends seem like children to me. I can relate to everything you said about being around kids😄. I’m so glad my daughters didn’t pluck too. I love their thick brows!!! Beautiful makeup look!!
Have a happy Sunday!!!
XO,
Dawn💕💗
I'm so sorry to hear that you lost a child. 😟 I wonder if you enjoyed pregnancy like I did, I LOVED it!!! Had I started having children earlier, I would have definitely had more! Isn't that crazy that 20 yr olds seem like children to us? Lol! I think it's so neat that we both have 6th graders. 🤗💙
Looks really pretty! I don't think it's overly dramatic at all. Very natural and colors look great 👍
Thank you Lisa! 💖
your makeup looks great...🌻...I love the sound of beach waves or a waterfall its relaxing...🌊🌊
Omg your mom looks amazing!!! I wonder if you two can make a video about your favorite products?
I know this is an old video BUT I had to stop to comment....of course children love you...you are an empath...look it up...I an an INFJ, HSP, empath myself and I knew after watching your first video that you are an angel on earth! I can feel your kind soul! I also can feel that you are very hard on yourself...I do not know enough to know why BUT I can tell that you never want to hurt anyone and something causes you not to give yourself that same kindness and grace! I hope you understand that this isn't meant to put you down its meant so that you will realize how beautiful you are, how perfectly you live your life and that others especially your family will always get your undivided attention...which makes you an angel on earth! Living where you live sounds like heaven on earth...the beach and seagulls! Keep being blessed and keep trusting yourself that you are wonderfully made by your parents and God! 🌺🙏😘
Oh my gosh, you are so sweet! I have been told before that I was an empath, and when I researched it, I really do believe that I am! I’ve always had a sensitive heart, but once I had kids, they really pushed it into overdrive. ❤️ I appreciate you taking the time to leave this message, it means so much to me! 🌺🌸🌺
Whenever I'm a lil stressed and need to wind down , I put waves crashing on for music and take a lil nap . I am a counselor with grade school children , I love them too ! I agree with the movies , it's awful I can't watch them . I fall to pieces when a child is crying in the grocery school 😉
Oh my goodness me too!!! My heart always goes out to both the child and the mommy! I just remember how panicked I'd get when my babies would start crying in a public place. Lol! 💖
Jenifer,
I wanted to share with you this product I don't know if you have heard of it but it's great for cold sores it's called HL 30 it's a lip balm you can find it at Walmart in the chap stick area. Also you can use Mylanta & Benadryl mix equal parts together and apply to the cold sore it helps dry it up the Benadryl helps numb it also. If those don't work ask your dentist to prescribe you something for them.
My daughter & husband suffers from them also.
This works great for them.
Have a Blessed Weekend!
You look beautiful and did a great job on this look. I will have to try this color combo, since I have hazel green eyes. Listening to you talk about the ocean and music was awesome. I love both so much also. I was such a beach girl growing up and have always lived close to the ocean, regardless of where I was (I've lived in Hawaii, San Diego and now in Houston Tx where I was born and raised. I've been to South Padre Island so many times, so I know your area well, where you spent your beach time. My favorite sound is listening to the ocean and waves break also. The ocean does something to me that I can't describe. One of my favorite memories is when I lived on the North Shore across from pipeline. I would just lay on the hammock and listen/watch the waves break. I miss it there.
You have a beautiful daughter. They grow up so quickly, don't they? I love this style of chat video and hope you do more. ❤
Thank you! And yes, they do grow up fast...too fast! 💙 Do you have children? Oh my gosh, the thought of laying in a hammock and just listening to waves crash sounds incredible! But let's not forget the pina colada...even better! 😄🌺
Jenifer Jenkins Yes, I have a son. He just turned 25. ☺
I agree Sea gulls and crashing waves!!!! I don’t wear under eye eye shadow as it always droops my eyes
I'm glad I'm not alone with the eye shadow under my eye thing. I never hear anyone else talk about it. Maybe it's just the way our eyes are shaped. 🤗🌺
You are so refreshing and real! Sounds that I like, rain. Distant thunder. I can hear music, but not what is playing. Your daughter is beautiful, like her mom! Your final look is really pretty. Just use some bronzer to warm up the perimeter of your face and under your cheekbones and you don't have to buy another foundation color, until you have time to get to the store. :)
Thank you so much! 🌺💜 I agree, I should've reached for some bronzer. Love the sound of rain and thunder too! 😊
I was a daddy’s girl until about 13 and then my mother and I bonded. We were very close until the day she passed away at 62. Not enough time with her. Cherish every milestone. ❤️
Your comment gave me goosebumps! 🤗💜
Hello there! I found you through Anne-Marie. Subscribed b/c I found you so relate-able! So many times throughout this video, I kept thinking, 'Wow, that reminds me of me.' Looking forward to more of your videos.
You are such a sweet person & I love how you keep it real when making your videos. You look beautiful with or without makeup, but I do love the "dramatic" look on you. Not that it really mattered, because you are beautiful inside & out, but your makeup application is really coming along & I'm happy to see you enjoy stepping "out of the box" every now & then! What I enjoy most is feeling like we're two friends just doing our makeup together! LOL! I know it sounds silly, but @ my age of 43, I'm looking for more than just tutorials or straight reviews. Anyway, keep the great vids coming. Uh-oh, I used the word "anyway." LOL! Thanks Jen!
Awe...thank you so much Jen! Hope you have a fantastic weekend!! 🤗💙🌺
So beautiful! I feel exactly like you about my babies! (16 & 18) I used to volunteer once a week also. I will always treasure those times!
God bless 🌸🌸🌸
As a side note; I can’t separate myself from news stories or movies when children are physically or emotionally hurt. I always picture my kids and it will eat at me. It’s a spiritual battle for me!
Oh my goodness, me too!! I get so freaked out when news stories involve kid! 😟 It's funny because there are some days when I don't feel like volunteering because there are so many things I may have to get done at home, but once I walk through the door and all the kids come to hug me, my heart practically explodes! 😍💞❣
Love the look, Jenifer! You did a marvelous job! I'm very makeup challenged myself and I was able to pick up a few pointers from you so thanks loads! I also love, love the sounds of crashing waves and seagulls as they remind me of our family vacations on lake Huron in Canada. How wonderful that you're so passionate about kids! I'm sure you're a blessing to them as they are to you. Have a great weekend. Lots of love to you! ♡♡♡
Thank you so much! I just love how certain sounds...and smells can evoke such sweet memories! 💙🌼
Jen, try some warm tone blondes in your hair and it will help with the discoloration with gray and warms it up a bit and will hold your color more
Thank you so much for that tip! 💜🌺
Very pretty look! I've never used false lashes either but have been thinking a lot about lately. Beauty really runs in your family, mom and daughter are gorgeous also! I would have to say my favorite sound is the ocean as well.
Thank you so much Donna! 💜 I bought some false eyelashes yesterday. Now we'll just have to see if I'm capable of applying them. Lol!
I had to back to see the finished Jen! Love it! Anne Marie that blush would look lovely on you.
Thank you Barbara! 💜💖💙
New subscriber -- I love the sound of rain on a tin roof! Your make-up is very pretty--
Thank you so much Melissa! 💙
Gorgeous!!!!!! Love this look!!!!
Awe...thank you! 💜
Such a pretty look. I swear half false lashes every day and have never lost a lash! :-) xoxo Elle
Really? You wear false eye lashes everyday? Okay, I'm going to have to give them a try! I just love the way they make women's eyes look! 😊💖
I applied the darkest purple over some medium brown in my crease to tone the brightness of the purple down
That's a good idea! 🌺
Great look Jenifer! You look so pretty with those eyeshadow colors.
Thank you so much Vera! 💖
I love the lip lacquer Tease too!!! So beautiful!!!
LOve the sound of crashing waves. I grew next to the ocean. It is a sound that puts me to sleep. XOXO
Jenifer, those colors look lovely with your green eyes, and your daughter is so pretty, just like her mommy! ~ Janis from Florida
Thank you so much Janis! 🌺💙🤗
You’re daughter is gorgeous and you’re the best mom ever taking her to get her 💅🏻 nails done Mother daughter bonding is the best! You’re makeup always looks beautiful and thanks for reminding me that I need to start using your tip of using niaminicde on my eyelids.
Awe...thank you! 🌺 I love mommy/daughter bonding...it's so special! I'm just trying to really appreciate every moment since I know she's not going to stay young forever. 💖
Wow your mom is BEAUTIFUL. IM NOT READY YET FOR ALL SILVER. GREAT VID. THX.
Thank you, she would be so flattered! 🌺
gorgeous look ...I'm newly diagnosed with thyroid disease a week ago after having health issues for years ..I suffered major allergies when in fact I barely have allergies and the last 5 years I've gained weight and skin rashes ..My TSH was 3.79 T2 was eh but T3 and T4 were playing nasty .. Would you consider doing a video on symptoms of thyroid disease ? I know you talk some about it .
As a 48YO woman, I thank you for all your informative and fun videos! Have you considered growing/drawing your brows a bit thicker? I think it makes us look younger. I over-plucked in the 90s and started Microblading 2 years ago.
You're absolutely right. 😊 I think I'm going to try to tattoo them in a bit thicker. Anytime I try to draw or powder them thicker, it never fails, I end up accidentally rubbing some off and then I have wonky looking, uneven brows. Lol! 😄
I love the darker makeup on you. I bet browns would look amazing on your green eyes.
Your daughter is so beautiful, just like her mama.
I’m from Texas also. How are you liking this cold in the morning, hot in the afternoon weather?
Have a great week...God Bless!
xoxo Jeannie
Oh my gosh, I'm loving the weather right now! Thank you Jeannie! 💜🌺
I thought the look was really pretty. I use careprost for eyelash growth, and it works so good that I look like I am wearing false eyelashes...I know there can be side effects, but I have not had any problems and I have used it for a year. Thanks for,showing us a picture of your daughter. Oh my gosh, she is stunning . Thanks for the tutorial...xoxo
Thank you so much for the complement about my daughter! 💜 I've heard about Careprost, I may have to try it out. I would love to have eyelashes that looked like falsies! 😊
+Jenifer Jenkins you would love careprost. One of the side effects is it actually makes them curl. I have not used an eyelash curler since my lashes have grown...
I love the look!!! Always looking beautiful!!!
Thank you so much Brigette! 🤗🌺
💋Jenifer, Love u and loved this! Daughter is beautiful! Seriously your moms pic, there is some brilliant beautiful genes running in the fam! I just adore u too. Sending you and your family lots of love and blessings. Love and Light 💖Carli. btw: your hair looks so full and healthy and I just picked this eyeshadow palette up. I have light green eyes too.
Thank you so much Carli for all the sweet things you say! 💜🌺 And I think you'll love that little quad...it's so easy to work with! I bought a couple more in different shades since they were so cheap. 😊
Your daughter is adorable and your mom is stunning, like you of course!😉
Castor oil will help with hair growth! My eyelashes & brows are so thick now. I get mine on amazon ♥️💋
Thank you! I need to try that! 💙
Another great video .... the chatter made it especially enjoyable. Wonderful to know more about you.
Oh how sweet! Thank you! 🌺🤗
Hi Jeni. I just found your channel. I live in the uk. I simply had to subscribe to you. I have similar problems with crepey hooded eyes. I was beginning to think i was the only person who does'nt do the swiping method. lol. I agree it makes my eyelids look worse. I had stopped wearing shadow, but think after watching you i'll give it another try. My daughter was born with an underactive thyroid glad, so totally understand how it affects you both. Your daughter is beautiful as is her mum. I also prefer music to tv. And love the memories it brings back. You are an absolute pleasure to watch, so lovely. Sending love from a very cold uk. Would love to live near a beach. Wearing flipflops is something i can only dream about. Boots and scarf are essentials in the uk. Mandy. Sorry about long comment. Xx💖🇬🇧
Awe...I loved reading your comment! I've wanted to give up on eye shadows a few times too because I didn't want to do all the sweeping and tugging on my already weak and sagging eye lids. AND because I couldn't find a primer that didn't make my eyelids look 10 yrs older. But little by little I'm trying to come up with things that work for me and my particular eye shape and issues. Because at the end of the day, I like to be able to camouflage my aging eyes with makeup. 😉 I hope you're able to wear flip flops on a beach sometime soon! 🌺🤗
Love this look. Can you tell me what self tanner you use? It looks natural.
Your daughter is a doll!!!!
Great video!!! Enjoy your weekend!
Do you still use the Donnel glycolic lotion when you use a self tanner? Does it affect the tan at all? Positively or negatively?
No, I do not use it when I'm self tanning because when I do it makes my skin looks splotchy. 💖
Jennifer, such a pretty look! By the way you are young young young in comparison to me in my late 60’s!!!!!😮not sure how that happened. I loved this chatty GRWM💕. Thankyou for sharing your ❤️
Isn't that something? The other day I was looking in the mirror and literally thought to myself..."You are about to be 45. 45!" I'm like you, how did this happen? But it's okay, I plan to live till at least 120. Lol! Thank you so much for your sweet words! 💙🌺
I live in Corpus Christi too! I just came back from the beach from paddle boarding.
You do?! Awesome! Sounds like you had a great day! 🤗🌺
So happy I found your channel. Loved this video.
Thank you so much! I appreciate you being here! 🤗🌺
Hi Jenifer, being emotional shows you have a big heart also the kids are attracted to the great energy you give out. Great job your makeup looks fab. Enjoyed the chit chat. Thanx. Boy your mum is beautiful. Thanx again. 💕💕
Thank you so much! And my mom is going to be so flattered with all the complements! 💙🤗
I can tell when my thyroid is off because I start to lose eyebrow hair. My MD thought I was nuts at first but every time (every few years) I would call and say “things are off, I am losing brows” she would test and my labs were off. I have never had a problem with weight and being hypothyroid, I always have stayed pretty thin.
I feel like I can always tell too, so I'll hurry up and set an apt to get my blood work checked and then it's always fine and I'm left feeling so confused. Lol! But it drives me crazy when I lose eyebrow hairs because I don't really have many to spare. Lol! 😄
Very nice Jenifer, love the look, and your daughter is beautiful just like her mom!
Thank you so much Sharon! 🤗🌺
The Boscia exfoliating peel gel is great for the retin-a peelys!!!
Thank you for that recommendation! Googling it now. 🤗💖
My
moms family is from Brownsville and she used to visit South Padre Island all the time.
You are just so lovely! I am going to find that blush, because this girl needs all the "natural glow" I can get! :) FYI: I don't watch sad movies either, and I haven't watched a horror film since 1995. Honestly, if it doesn't make me laugh I'm not interested. Life is too short to spend it crying or scared! Great video, loved it!
Exactly! I'll watch ANYTHING funny! But if a show or movie doesn't serve me in a positive way, I just don't enjoy it. Thank you! 💜🌺
There are certain commercials with parents and children that get me crying every time. I figure I may as well embrace my sentimental heart! TAKE CARE!!! : )
Me too!! There's this Subaru Father/Daughter commercial that gets me every time! It's making me emotional just thinking about it. Ha! 😄💜
I like the one when the daughter is going off to college but gets back out of the car to hug her dad and say thanks....for everything. super sweeeet
I just bought that w and w quad and I love it!
Perfect try some Blink Monika is using it right now. Or any enhancing eyelash serum. I'm using one in the UK so far so good. You are adorable Jen. Same sounds as you born in Dartmouth UK. right by the Royal Naval college. So crashing waves seagulls. ..yes. And music. Just listened to Goyte from 6 years ago feat Kimba you didn't have to cut me out. Just love any type of music. But some a lot moves me to my soul. And I must have listened to this about 8btimes, on looping. I just love it the video is pretty good. That might be what got me first lol. You did an amazing job. Ms Jenkins. Been there I volunteered same school for both my boys for a long time. I'd go in and I had pictures and paintings waiting for me. UK rainy days so kids could do what they wanted lol xxx 💖💗💝 xxx Don't let her cut her hair. On my instagram I have a pic of me younger. When I went to my next school I cut my hair. Mistake. X
Lol! I will totally do that too...listen to the same songs on loop until I'm sick of it. Ha! And then I'll come back to it later and time travel with it. 😊 My daughter is always wanting me to cut her hair. She says she wants it to be my length and I'm like, "Um...NOOOOO!" Lol! She has no idea how lucky she is to have such thick long hair! I think I've convinced her for now, but I may not be so convincing once she gets a little older. 💖
Jenifer Jenkins Yeah no one tried to talk me out of it, it never grew back as strong as it was. It did grow back blummin curly. Now I'd love it like that lol. It's long now. With your knowledge though, I'm sure if your daughter regrets it you can sort that. That's quite the compliment though, same as yours. Good luck, problem with school you see people and think I'd ,love to look like that. Bet you any money people would love to have her hair. xxx I would my Grandaughter is six She's trying like crazy to grow her hair like mine. But she has mum's thin hair. So I'm 54 & she envy's my hair !!! I've told her things she needs to eat to thicken it. But she's so picky about food. I'll keep trying. xxx
You have such gorgeous skin!
Awe...thank you so much Lisa! 🤗🌺
Hi Jenifer!! Omg I can relate to so much of what you said in this video!! I was a first grade teacher for ten years before I had my children. I taught students that came from very diverse and difficult backgrounds. I wanted to take some home with me , it broke my heart knowing how awful their home lives were. When I had my own kids I volunteered all the time , so yes I totally hear you. It’s funny now because my oldest is a senior in college and the youngest two are in high school. Now I volunteer with the marching band and lots of those little kids I used to help in elementary school are taller than me!!! Weird, for sure. And I also adore the beach and my husband watches that zombie show too lol. You look beautiful in those colors, and I hope you are enjoying your weekend!❤️🌺😊
Oh my gosh, we're so much alike! It breaks my heart when I find out that some of the kids in my son's classes have terrible home-lives. I try to give them extra attention and affection when I'm around them. I remember one little girl was in his class and then she was no longer there. His teacher told me that her dad, whom she lived with, put her in foster care. I cried right then and there. Every child deserves to be loved and paid attention to. Hope you're having a wonderful weekend! 💙🌺
Jenifer Jenkins I definitely agree, every child most definitely deserves a good start in life. After experiencing these things as a teacher that is what made up my mind about staying home with my own children. I was so frustrated trying to help other people’s children, I knew the biggest impact I could truly make was on my own children. So that is what I personally had to do. Love you, the world needs more moms like you🌈
I love this! BTW I have a child with autism and live in Texas too! I love your channel and videos. Keep up the great work!💕
Another Autism Mommy! 💙🌺 Thank you so much! 🤗
Very pretty look for you!! Your daughter is beautiful like her mommy! Great video~again!
Thank you so much Samantha! 🤗🌺
Very beautiful look!! I like it 😊 thanks for this beautiful video.
Thank you so much! 💖🤗
hi jenifer do you use the donelle lotion even after you self tan?
Your so adorable! I always look forward to your new videos.
Thank you so much Kathy! 🤗💙
Wow, your mum is such a beauty!
Thank you so much! 💕💕
Hi Jenifer, do you use something on your lips to make them look so plump? I'm finding the older I'm getting the thinner my lips are becoming. I really do not want injections in my lips though. Thanks for any advice pretty lady!
Hey girl! No, I don't, and mine are getting thinner too. 😟 I was just looking at a picture of me when I was about 17 and my lips seemed to be fuller. The only thing I do for my lips is LIVE in chapstick. Like, I have about 5 tubes in my purse and just as many in my night-stand. I've been addicted to chapstick since my early 20's. It's usually what I use instead of lipstick even, so that may have saved my lips a tad, but not as much I'd like. 💖
Jenifer Jenkins That's so funny because I'm the same way when it comes to Chapstick! They are in my purse, in the cars, in my coat pockets and on my nightstand..lol. Thanks for the feedback! I greatly appreciate it😊
Hi Jenifer, I like you because you're so authentic, "a free soul", I am alternating tretinoin 0,05% with 5% glycolic acid, I peel enough, and my skin doesn't irritate or turns red, I'm satisfied with the results, of course sometimes I have to makeup and my flakes don't look good, but I accept it, I use a mask made with oat flour and milk, very soft, from time to time and it helps me with the peeling, your makeup technique is similar to Lisa Eldridge's, so subtle not to damaging your skin, the result of your eyelids makeup...beautiful. My favorite sound is children laughing and the beach waves too, make me feel so happy.Thank you for sharing your life and thoughts😘
Thank you so much for saying such sweet things Maria! 💙 And thank you for telling me about Lisa Eldridge, I just looked her up and subbed! 🌺
I love that blush! Definitely going to pick some up. Blush actually is my favorite makeup product. I feel like it just gives such a beautiful glow and emphasis to my cheek bones, I feel naked without it 😂
I love it too! Wish I would have started wearing it years ago. I'm SO late to the makeup party! But, better late than never! 😉💙
Seagulls and Beach - Same!!
The eyes look really nice.
My son has autism too, so I always relate to your stories about your little dood!
A fellow Autism Mommy! 💜💖💙
Looks beautiful. Love the colors on you.
Thank you Lana! 💙
Your Mom is stunning!
Thank you so much Lori, she would be so flattered! 💙
Fantastic video Jenifer👏🏻 Like you, I have the same hooded downturned lids😭😂 So some of the UA-camrs eye looks just do not work for me🙄 Your dramatic eye look turned out fabby😍 A bit off topic but why the change in your RetinA application? Hope you don't mind me asking? Xx
Thank you so much Nicola! Us, downturned hoodies have to stick together. Lol! 😄 I just wanted to try something new with my skincare. Although, I love the way my skin looks after it sheds every week, I don't care for the flaking and shedding process, so I thought I'd see how quickly I could work my way up using a lower strength, and if I would like the way my skin looked better. I've only been using this strength for about 3 weeks and already I'm up to every other day, however there is still a little bit of shedding, but it's so minimal. So we'll see. I'm just trying something new....paying real close attention to my forehead lines, to see if I see improvement. 💖
Jenifer Jenkins I've suffered dry, eczema, sensitive skin my whole life, however, watching the fabby MaryEllen encouraged me to try new skincare! Started Timeless products slowly last April an amazingly no dry, lizard, scaley skin for the first time in 47yrs🎉😂 Any products I had ever tried before would just irritate an dry me up so in the end I just used Olay sensitive beauty fluid for around 20 years, til the amazing Timeless🙌🏻 In November started the Spanish RetinA Reterides 0.025% once a week with little or no peelies👏🏻 I'm now every other night still no peelies😬 but its about to run out! I also bought the 0.005% last year in Spain but tbh I am actually scared to start using it as I've had such an easy time wi the 0.025😳 Im just gonna do exactly the same thing an hope fir the best🤞🏻🙏🏻🤞🏻🙏🏻🤞🏻😂😂 Your skin looks absolutely amazing an your forehead lines are practically invisible😍 Have a great day☺️ xx
Gorgeous! Great video, Jenifer and your daughter is so beautiful! xoxo Josette
Thank you so much Josette! 🤗💙
This looks fabulous. Your daughter is stunning.
Thank you so much Adele! 💜💖💙
Your hair color is perfect 👌🏼. Don’t feel bad I have silver hair toward the front too 🙄. There is a lot of people on youtube especially if there in their early 40’s that are going grey and look fabulous. The sound of the ocean 🌊 is always relaxing. I don’t watch a lot of television either. I have not tried the CoverGirl mascara. Watch out she may need her own UA-cam channel one day. Your daughter is so fortunate to have such beautiful eyebrows and long lashes. I don’t wear false lashes either. I dint follow the make up trends either. I do what works for me too. I like the NYX lip liners too. But the Maybelline vivid hot lacquer in tease is perfect on you. What a stunning look Melissa. Stay fabulous and enjoy your weekend. Aloha 🌺...Ranalynn
Thank you so much Ranalynn! Yes, the ocean!! The funny thing is, I love the beach so much, but I rarely get in the water because I'm so afraid of sharks. Lol! 😄
Ello Jennifer 😊
I really enjoyed this chatty video, actually I've started to put my make up on ,while watching /listening to you🤗 ( and a SEAGULLS 😛)
I also live by the sea, so I know what you mean by : not wearing a heavy makeup is the best way to be🤗 Exept that if you live in small SEASIDE town or in my case village, your appearance and fashion style always goes with your lifestyle 🤗
I wonder what is your view on Sunscreens with a hint of tint😂 or BB/CC /DD creams😂 with hight SPF....instead of foundation for the Hot Summery months?
It's so much stuff like that on the market these days, and the more there is , the more confused I am🤔
I struggle with the same skin problems as you, and hyperpigmentation is one of them
I also use Retin-A and my skin is flaking a little bit, pretty much all the time , therefore I thought... More Creamy texture of some kind of Tinted Base with hydrating and correcting properties plus SPF would be The best thing I could put on my face🤔🤗🤔🤗
I found you very competent and knowledgeable... with a real passion for staying youthful and healthy. I do trust your opinion and recommendations 🤗
Ps 1
I did try to find out if you have done any videos about it, but had no luck. .
Thank you Hun 😍😍😍
Thank you so much Ania! 🤗 I'm on the lookout for a good CC cream myself. I hear so many ladies rave about the IT Cosmetics CC Cream SPF 50. I've been meaning to give it a try. I think I'll go ahead and purchase it since the summer months are quickly approaching. From day to day, if I'm just running errands, I'll use my Colorescience Sunforgettable SPF 50. It's a mineral powder with sunscreen and I just love it! But it's a little pricey. However if I know I'm going to be outdoors for any extended period of time I ALWAYS wear a cream based sunscreen, but I'm not crazy them, so I'm definitely looking for a tinted one that can double as a foundation. And some women that have reviewed the IT Cosmetics one, say they do just that. 💖💜💙
Loved this video. Lots of fabulous fun memories of Padre Island spring break and bikini contest. Lol. I’m east of Dallas. Xoxo 😘
Lol! I used to love the bikini contests. My sister used to enter them, so of course I'd cheer her on. 🤗🌺
What color do you use on your roots? I also have a lot of silver on top and on the sides, but I have a very hard time covering the silver and my hair is the same color as yours. Thanks
I use the Revlon Dark Ash Blonde. I made a video about how I color my base, so I'll attach it here. But just so you know, I've tried SEVERAL brands of hair color, and this one just seems to turn out the best. At first it seems a little dark at my roots, but after a few washes, it comes out to be a nice light ash blonde rather than dark ash blonde. Especially where my hair is the most silver. Here's the video 💜: ua-cam.com/video/FT1IC3TvvfE/v-deo.html
Jenifer Jenkins Thank you so much! 😊
crashing waves on the beach .If I ever have problems sleeping I always put on utube with the sounds of crashing waves.
also check vitamin d level. I too have thyroid disease but my vitamin d was way to low. and also causes hair loss. Tiredness also. A lot of people have low d levels because we are all wearing a lot of sunscreen which keeps the natural D rays from us. just some fyi
You're absolutely right Sandra! My Vitamin D was also low. Thank you for your comment, it may just help someone else out! 💜💖💙
Forgot to mention, your Mum is a gorgeous lady! Of course your daughter is beautiful, it obviously runs in the family ...
Thank you so much Claudia! 🤗💙
Hi, I know you got under eye fillers. Not sure if you got them again but how long did it take for it to dissolve for you?
My first injections were in March of 2016 and I got 1.5 syringe in total. I did get a touch up in March of 2017, but that time I only got 1/2 syringe to touch up the inside corners. It's been a year since then and I honestly don't think any of it has dissolved. In case you're wondering about price...the first time I paid $1000 for 1.5 syringe. I was charged $700 for a full syringe and $300 for 1/2 syringe (she discounted the 1/2 syringe because I had bruised so bad).. When I got the touch up a year later, I went to a different plastic surgeon who charges $375 for a 1/2 syringe and $525 for a full syringe. 😊
LOL I'm sorta ready...I'm hiding under ballcaps, bandanas and wigs while I see what color is actually under all this...if it's just gray nope I'm not ready but if it's white like my momma then I might be...don't know yet ;) That sound for me is rain on a trailer tin roof ;) Gosh I think that look came out really pretty Jenifer. My hubby prefers no makeup too...yea that's not happening ALL THE TIME..I give him plenty of days of no makeup but when I wear it...I wear it LOL Love ya GF! xoxo Mary
PS...you aren't makeup challenged ;)
I laughed out loud when you said, "If it's just gray, nope I'm not ready". 😄 I think it's sweet that our hubbies are cool with less makeup. I guess the alternative would be that they express their preference for MORE makeup. Now that would be a little disheartening. Lol! Thank you Mary! 💙🌺
Yes! I know this too! I can't look at films, in which children are hurt! Do you know the film "Pet Sematary"! I can't look it, since i have children on my one! It's horrible, what happens to the little boy. I can't look it.
I like your GRWM and TALK very much! And i love it, listen to your voice and to the content you're telling us! Again a wonderful video. Thank you so much for it!😍😍💜💜
Thank you so much, you're very sweet! 🤗🌺
Jenifer Jenkins ❤❤❤❤❤
Hey jenifer, do you put self tanner on your face?
No, I don't. When I've done that in the past it seems to really accentuate any discoloration I have on my face. But because of that, I'm definitely going to have to purchase a darker foundation. 😉💙
