@@georgiabh13 it can come from a good intention, people who are really happy with their sprouts and think it’s the same recipe for everyone else’s happiness. Still wrong, probably sexist, and potentially hurtful 😂
@@thefreevolous I get your point but in this day and age I don’t think even the most caring “curiosity” should overpass this boundary. Example what if one doesn’t like kids or can’t have them for whatever reason. It’s too sensitive of a subject.
I asked my bf not to long ago. And he said yes, he wants 2 and honestly it makes me so happy someone wants my genes too. I was like bro you want a baby.
Love you Angie ❤ Jen Luv actually revealed the bankruptcy filings showed Morphe and Forma ALWAYS owned Jaclyn Cosmetics from the very start (including ordering and still owing $$$ for the lipsticks from Oxygen Development which they continued to work with afterwards 😭)
I'm glad you answered the child question, I am also child free and struggle with telling people I don't want kids and justifying it. It's nice to hear other women being open about it too x
Agree! I eventually found that using humor and then a quick deflection to a new topic tended to shut reasonable people down, but ugh on the unreasonable people lol
I’m also confidently child free. It’s one of the first serious discussions my husband had with me when we were dating because he is also confidently child fee.
I loved this one! When we’re younger, it’s always about having ‘more’. I’m happy to say that I’m content with having ‘enough’. I was able to buy a modest sized house (on my own!) 11 years ago. Every morning I wake up, and walk through the house and think ‘I love my house’. Is it perfect? No….but it’s so nice….and it’s enough..😊
This video confirms why I’m still subscribed after all these years. The refreshing honesty. Contentment is exactly what I want too. I don’t need high end things or amazing adventures. I want “just enough”. I’ve raised my two boys to be like this too. They are likely not going to have kids, and I’m ok with that. I love them regardless.
I really loved and related to your TED talk. I think sometimes we get so caught up in the whole "be better, do more, go big" mentality that we not only forget to appreciate what we already have but also don't realise that we don't need more than a certain level to be happy
My old therapist asked me what do you want from life and I said to be happy, she said happiness is temporary strive to be content it lasts!!! Loved your answer to that question ❤

The lipstick is so pretty on you. My favorite word in my native language is 'verschlimmbessern' - it means you make something worse but meant to make it better. I love it. Thats what I always am doing and I thought of sharing this XD
Angie, would you ever consider doing a video about Sweden? I love learning the cultures, and customs of other countries and after you spoke about you and the Oden's eye creator both being Swedish, it popped in my head that I would love a video all about where you are from! I know you have mentioned things here and there about what you celebrate but I think it would be fascinating to learn more about Sweden...maybe as a chatty GRWM. Love you and your videos XOXO
I think that yellow blush would be good for other liquid blushes that are orangey but lean too coral or pink. You always say you love a yellow leaning orange, and I agree! You actually made me realize I have similar undertone to you and shade. I’m curious how it would work, almost like the LA girl fixing pigments
I love that both of your favorite words are around the same concept - I think it says a lot about you that you just want to be content with enough, rather than always wanting more. (Obligatory “I love my Singe brushes” comment - they’re really fantastic and I can’t wait to see what more you come up with in the future!)
Good morning Angie! I just used my Singe brushes for the first time this morning and they were PHENOMENAL! I already have a good mind to buy another set (or 2!). Hope you have a wonderful day! ❤❤
I love the last part of your video with your message about being content. It really is truly about being content with life and not wanting too much or expecting too much and just being happy with being alive and living your life.
I agree as a bisexual men we don’t always need kids I mean I definitely want a boyfriend and no kids and asking women about kids all the time is overdone and needs to stop and let’s be real the world is so overpopulated anyway like we already are 8 billion humans on this planet which is insane to me sometimes 😅
angie: i have your brushes. i didn’t think i’d be impressed, and was a little disappointed when i saw them next to other brushes in my collection. and then i used them. omg. they are the only brushes i use now. that E01 is everything for my deep set eyes. what a cohesive and wonderful set. you did amazing. i’ll def leave you a similar review on your site!
I appreciate your candid answers with everything from the companies you choose to work with, children, and the importance of healthcare for all. I lived overseas for 6 years, married to a man from NZ (at one point in time), and experienced socialized healthcare, as well as the lack of pressure to own a house or have my worth defined by what I do for work. The comment you mentioned about kids resonated with me, but not as far as "if" I am going to have kids, I do have one...but that is just it, I get the "are you JUST having the one kid, won't they be lonely?" Really? One never knows if there were fertility problems, divorce, and thus no one to continue with procreation at the time, and maybe, JUST maybe, one is enough. There is something about living in the EU I found relaxing, unpretentious, and more about the person and their character than the $$ they earned, the type of house they lived in, and the degrees one held. Thank you for your Ted Talk; it brought me back to a time when I was more at ease and relaxed and enjoyed "just being." You are always a joy to watch and listen to while I put my makeup on for the day. Thank you for creating thoughtful, funny, and colorful content! I appreciate you.
I love learning cool words in other languages that express such a specific emotion/description that we don’t have a direct translation for in English. Thanking you for sharing another one!
I can't explain how cute it is to see you having a crazy weird makeup day, I don't feel so alone and I have all the respect in the world watching you power through it like a true boss😂😂, and I love my brushes Angie they are perfect❤❤
Love talking about unused products and older products! I find it interesting... I would love a whole video similar to.. "What do you love, but do not use?" There are many makeup and clothing items i absolutely love, and can't help but buy. But, then I dont end up wearing them. Not because they are not amazing! My makeup weaknesses include vampy red-black lipsticks, bright bold blush, metallic liquid eyeshadow. Yet, I barely wear them.. VERY rarely. 🤣
I've been decluttering my life, and it's been absolutely amazing. There are things we can all do to be better, but as long as we never stop learning!!🖤💚
In Dutch, we would say tevreden. Sometimes translating words literally to another language goes really well, but the nuance is different. The feeling of the word is different from what you mean in the other language.
Thats so nice to hear, you are right, we should learn to be content, I am always so pressured about the future, about a better job, a better house EVERYTHING, I feel that I am not enjoying the moment because of my constant pressuring myself 😢
Angelica i love your answer on the last question...CONTENT ❤ I think the constant..competition for more or better,makes people missing or forgets about important things in the life ! Not materialistic!
40:02 WOW Ange, your words seriously brought tears to my eyes!! I have been trying to tell my husband this for SO long and I couldn't figure out how to say it. Thank you so much just for being you! You are truly an amazing human being and I'm glad you let us along for the ride
I'm SO glad you loved Dungeons and Dragons! My best friend, who is not into any nerd stuff, also loved it. I'm so sad they didn't do a real makeup collab (and a bundle with NYX does not count) for the film! I would have bought it all.
I love how upfront, honest, and candid you are. Your channel is definitely one of my top favs. I’m so excited to watch your brand sore and see the success you have. You definitely deserve it. With that being said, I LOVE my Singe brushes. So much so that I need to purchase another set or two because I get so disappointed when they’re dirty 😂
I gotta say thank you so much for addressing not using enough spf to reach the target of the product I see so many Creators applying their SPF and saying how important it is , but they’re not applying enough or they mix it with something else and when you mix it you dilute it. There’s more ppl than not that do not know how much needs to be applied in order for it to be any type of affective at all , I think a video on sunscreen would be great and informative to many people because nobody wants the bas effects of the sun showing up in a few yrs on their face . Had to edit in how you saved that yellow blush so freaking beautifully I got eyes and I think it turned out STUNNING!
Always love a chatty GRWM - also love the concept of using items we forgot we bought - we've all been there! I also love the earrings - every time you wear them I always think how pretty they are - whoever bought you them send them my compliments! 🧡 I loved the thoughts you had on being content, this is something I am striving towards in my 30s as well.
I love the last section with the discussion on words and differences between languages. I totally relate on the new business side... working on creating a retreat business for women at 40+ to assist them in identifying what brings them joy and creates contentment.
Such a sunny and outspoken personality, you really lift me up 😊 ☀️ and yes, I am so proud when somebody or a brand I like gets bigger! Good luck with Singe, you totally deserve it!
I love how open you are about not wanting kids. So many women I think are scared to say that because it’s just ingrained into so many people that they need to reproduce and I don’t think that’s the case. My twin sister doesn’t want to have any kids and I don’t blame her. She should enjoy her life as much as possible without them and she’s honestly not missing out on something that she herself never experienced anyways (yes, I’m sure people are going to judge me for that sentence and I really don’t care. She never knew what it was like to have kids and so she’s legit not missing out on something that she never was aware of. These are facts.) I have one kid and I love him to death. Hes 16… But I knew right after I had him that I didn’t want to have anymore and…originally I didn’t want to have any kids to begin with. With that being said… I don’t regret having a kid… I just am not a super maternal person and there are some people that are meant to have kids and love it and enjoy it and want more and then there’s people that just don’t want kids and you shouldn’t make people feel bad for not wanting to have children. I admire the fact that you don’t want to have kids. Kudos to you.
Sharing your words of wisdom is what made me subscribe and keep watching after the first video I watched of yours! I love the makeup and life advice all in one. You're very inspirational, i love thinking of different perspective... thank you!
You’re such a go getter. I think your life seems super full and that you do such a good job working for and toward making your aspirations happen. Lots to be proud of! I’m a mom, but I get not needing to be one. In fact I see you as super nurturing with your lovely fur babies, so you ARE fulfilling that side of you. ❤
I recently heard something that really switched up my perspective of how I judge this particular age of a human's quality of life (hope that made sense lol) So apparently, in our current era, even people living below the poverty line live more comfortably than royalty did 100-150yrs ago and that really opened my eyes to how much stuff is just excess. I've never been one to need or even want the best, most expensive or newest things on the market, but that fact still makes me want to appreciate even the most basic stuff more than I have in the past. A lot of things in the world might really suck right now, but I still want to acknowledge how lucky I am to have been born in this era, as opposed to how my grandmother (who was born in 1919) grew up in rural PuertoRico. I mean, the first house my mom lived in was built by my grandfather and didn't have running water or electricity. They didn't move to the mainland (NYC) until the late 60's and I can remember my grandmother talking about how much of a culture shock it was being here.
I am in my early forties. Next year i will have 20 years of marriage and we do not have children. We do not miss children. We have furr children which we love and we are pretty content like this. And still after all this time i still have questions from persons around me and even strangers if i have children. When i tell them no, it is almost always “you are still young, you can still have them”. Like i do not know my own mind. It drives me bonkers 😮
My 'rule of thumb' is .....if I have not used/worn something in the last year it goes. I am considerably older than you and have had.more time to collect 'stuff'. I keep sentimental things however, I have also streamlined those too. You look gorgeous, iffy blush and all.
Gosh I just love you Angie, you have such a genuinely wonderful soul. Honestly I have no idea why the saying about Swedes and Danes can’t be friends even exist, because I know if we met in real life, I could definitely see us being real friends! You are so honest and true to who you are, which is an amazing person, I hope you are having an awesome day with your loved ones🫶☺️.
I have a goal to read 50 books for a reading challenge my library organizes. I did the challenge last year at for the first time in years it pushed me to read a lot! And many books that I typically wouldn't read :)
I got married in September. After that EVERY TIME I was feeling tired or sick everybody was like ARE YOU PREGNANT? WHEN ARE YOU HAVING KIDS? I MEAN, YOU ARE NOW 33... and honestly it was so annoying, such a bad taste, you don't know the person, you don't know if they are struggling or if the question will cause trauma or if it's just annoying because HEY IT'S 2023 I THINK I CAN CONSIDER MYSELF AS A FULLY FUNCTIONAL AND FULFILLED WOMAN EVEN IF I'M NOT A MOTHER....
I love that both of your words are sort of related. One to having just the right amount of something and one being the feeling of life being just the right way right for you!
I've said this time and again, not only are we similar in tones but also in preferences and your understanding of the colour wheel is just chef kiss. But you also know how to use tools, like in your demos you give notes on technique... even in my No-Buy I'll watch you test something new because your videos aren't just First Impressions. I think you could really do something unique and special with Singe, and idgaf if your next item doesn't come out until next year or two years... I trust your process.
it’s so invigorating hearing you speak, it makes me feel like maybe I’m not that crazy and I’m not alone in the world when it comes to taking a big breath and just enjoying what I (fortunately) already have. Yes, being content is super important! And it’s not a signal of failure, as modern society would have you believe. Striving for stability and peace of mind feels much more healthy than this incurable disease of wanting more just for the sake of it. (Even for companies, what’s wrong with having a steady profit, having your employees protected and well payed and not feeling the need to burn everything in your path just to get “more”, which is never enough?). Anyway, I feel like if we ever crossed paths we’d have some really nice conversations 😅
I love watching your channel everyday and getting inspiration on new eye looks. I just ordered your brush set today, did Priority Mail, can't wait to get them , you and Heather are my two favorite creators on UA-cam, I sit down everyday and do my makeup watching your channel. Love the get ready with me videos.
I am so grateful to have found you and your channel, and now your new brand. You represent true beauty. Your heart seems to be as pure and radiant as your sweet face. You are down-to-earth and very real and relatable. I enjoy your content more than any other influencer I’ve ever watched. Thank you for being such a standout. ❤️❤️❤️
I am so glad I picked up your brushes ❤ they are seriously amazing like you said and fit my hooded eyes perfectly!! I gotta pick up another set and I can’t wait for the time you so release more ❤❤❤
I am excited and awaiting my delivery. I am an hour away from you so I know it will be here quickly. TBH, I am grateful you took your time to curate your brush collection. If you did not, I would be disappointed in you. I don't like frequent releases. It's overwhelming and most are not well done. Congrats again on your inaugural brand release! Also, I commend you on trying for work/life balance. I am struggling with that- ALWAYS!😂
All this video is so much yes to absolutely everything Angie. I am 40, also a workaholic, struggling with dont lose myself on work 24/7 hahaha and yes, I need more balance. Also, hell yes to be content. Nobody need a mansion and a ferrari. You arent taking that to your grave or to the next life.
You answered these questions so very well I personally think that you have a very good strong knowledge on how to speak on certain topics being as honest and upfront as you can without over sharing or stepping on toes , I find it very very important to know that you will not allow yourself to be silenced for a paycheque your morals and integrity are very important to you and should be for everyone. Sadly we know that many people are willing to do many things for that all mighty dollar yes we all need money to survive in this World to eat, pay our bills have a roof over heads be able to clothe ourselves, but for so many it needs to be all done in the most lavish lifestyle possible and that means lots of the time not being as honest as they should of course this is not everyone but in this space it happens to be the very very big names that seem to have allergies to honesty some are so honest and truthful in their reviews they’ve never not once taken a Sponsorship or done an Ad because they do not to deal with any of that side of the business yet they’ve hit well over a million subscribers. You can do Ads and take Sponsorships and still be honest it is very possible and I see it with you Angie as well many others that can give an honest review and still earn money , we see you talk very highly of a Brand/ product for yrs sometimes before if ever making a cent from said Brand I think there’s many Creators that can learn things from smaller Creators not the other way around. I have a handful of Creators that I literally watch every single video or short they do because I know I can trust them and I find them likeable, I don’t need to relate to the person to really enjoy them you’re not relatable in any way to me but your values and honesty are something I respect and unfortunately earning my respect can be difficult especially in the space. I hope you have a fantastic day enjoy your beautiful weather I am currently getting blasted with a Winter Blizzard at the moment 30 cm of snow can’t see out any of my windows there covered in snow, I bet you’re just loving the Texas weather much more than the weather back in Sweden this time of yr our Counties have very similar weather conditions albeit very very very far away from each other.
Here’s the thing Angie, I was gonna give you the compliment that “you have a good head on your shoulders”… then I thought about how strange of an English phrase that is. Why would you tell someone heyy I like your head? I dunno LOL! We’ll go with a different phrasing and I’ll say that I always admire your intelligence and awareness of self and others, Angie! You’re a good role model if younger girls are watching. Never stop being you xo ❤
It sounds like what you are talking about is decluttering your fantasy self. You dream all these things with certain items but they're just a person that you wish you were but really aren't. Also, I love a yellow blush
I am now sing,e at 64, bought a mobile home that needs updated so I could move out of my sons house after moving with him after a break up, but let me say I wake up and go to sleep feeling content. I paid for it on my own, I have a job and I work from home, and I am just happy. If you saw it you might think oh it’s out of the 90’s but it’s clean and it’s all. Ine. And it makes me happy
Wonderful video and very informative. You are absolutely right about saving for a home. The more you put down, the less your mortgage will be. I saved and bought my 1st home at 25 year’s old. I put a nice amount down so my mortgage was low and my interest rate. I got a 15 year mortgage. I was grateful enough to pay it off early. 🙏🏽 Me and my brother got into buying homes, fixing them up really good and then selling them. That actually brought the neighborhood property up.
Decluttering my life is my goal this year too. I'm going into it with the mindset that if I passed tomorrow, I don’t want to burden my family with having to clean my place of knick knacks and things with no meaning. So far its been going okay, I literally found a full on desktop computer that I haven't even taken out of the box. 😮💨
Watch out Riccardo, Angi's Garbage Bag is coming out 🤣 Hide the things you want to keep. Love the tinted base, might have to purchase it for myself even though we are coming into our Autumn/Winter time here in Australia we still need some form of SPF protection. ❤
I haven't been able to get your brush set yet. But as soon as possible I will be getting a set or two. Your channel was the second channel I started watching when I first found the makeup world on UA-cam. Most days you were the first video I watched. I'm so so happy for you. You have always been so devoted to your channels uploads and honestly your viewers. You can tell that you really love makeup and talking about it and giving us real and honest reviews. Watching your videos is like just sitting down with a best friend and talking. I really hope you have continued success in whatever it is you choose for your future. OK now I'm sounding like your mother or guidance counselor from highschool. Lol
Thank you for the TED Talk. Most enjoyable. I wonder if "enough" might be a comparable word for your Swedish word meaning not too little and not too much? Just a thought. You really are a ray of light.❤
I FINALLY got back from a trip and got to open my new brushes!!! Love the color of the handle, love how soft the bristles are and that they’re a dark brown in color (helps do I don’t stress about staining!) and they applied my shadows last night (I too used the warrior 2 lol) perfectly! They were small and precise and I really think I might need to buy another two sets!
Work life balance is very important. That is great that you have been able to do other fun things recently and to hopefully rest a bit. I know this would be work related, but if you are interested in doing a jewelry collection and de clutter on your Chanell I would totally watch that. You’ve got an interesting style.
Expat life and international calls 🙃 that’s such throwback for me and now I really appreciate EU lol Childfree lifestyle is not for everyone and I have to say I have it easy my parents/family are fine with it and I don’t live in a country that is culturally obsessed with natalism (people understand not everyone can have kids). Last time I had conversation about kids it was like 4-5 years ago and they couldn’t grasp that if my partner wanted kids I would just set them free - if their goals in life are different than mine we are clearly not made for eachother. One of us will be unhappy so what is the point of staying together. That’s catastrophy in progress IMO. Thanks for the video ❤ byee
I wonder how that yellow blush would preform as a mixer when you feel another cream or liquid blush you have is too cool toned? Especially bc we all know your preferences are warm blushes! I would love to see that tested
Angie i would love to see your wardrobe declutter like in a vlog or something 😅 ! I have stopped buying things that don't fit me or i am sure will not wear , i try to be more thoughtful about this part of my life and not throw with money everywhere! Also as a side note , me and my husband have decided to have one child, my son is 1 and 1/2 years old and some people started to be really adamant about our second child, even though we specifically said that we don't want to have more than one! Everybody should mind their own business!
Hi Angelica. This is the first time that I comment your video and I just want to say I really enjoy watching them ❤❤ hope you do more collection videos like top 10 blushes exc just a small suggestion 😜
If you are Swedish and you want to comment that 'nöjd' and 'content' are the same word. They are not. Yes google will suggest it as a direct explaination but the words do not mean the exact same thing and are not used interchangeably. I know Swedish, I know about the word 'nöjd'. ;) (and if you translate it the other way around, 'nöjd' to English, Google will suggest 'satisfied', which is what 'nöjd' really means)
Haha, was rushing to the comments to suggest "nöjd", but yes you're right of course 😅❤
What about the word fulfilled?
Just out of curiosity: Could the confusion perhaps be partly coming from something similar to the word "zufrieden" in German? It can mean both "satisfied" and "content."
I was going to suggest "tillfreds", but I also like Google's suggestion "belåten".
Jag tänkte också föreslå tillfreds
"Why aren't we asking men if they want to have kids??" 👏👏👏 amen to that!

“life is what happens while you’re making plans” is a useful idiom when we are wrapped up in future tripping or not paying attention to balance.

angie: i have your brushes. i didn’t think i’d be impressed, and was a little disappointed when i saw them next to other brushes in my collection. and then i used them. omg. they are the only brushes i use now. that E01 is everything for my deep set eyes. what a cohesive and wonderful set. you did amazing. i’ll def leave you a similar review on your site!
I appreciate your candid answers with everything from the companies you choose to work with, children, and the importance of healthcare for all. I lived overseas for 6 years, married to a man from NZ (at one point in time), and experienced socialized healthcare, as well as the lack of pressure to own a house or have my worth defined by what I do for work. The comment you mentioned about kids resonated with me, but not as far as "if" I am going to have kids, I do have one...but that is just it, I get the "are you JUST having the one kid, won't they be lonely?" Really? One never knows if there were fertility problems, divorce, and thus no one to continue with procreation at the time, and maybe, JUST maybe, one is enough. There is something about living in the EU I found relaxing, unpretentious, and more about the person and their character than the $$ they earned, the type of house they lived in, and the degrees one held. Thank you for your Ted Talk; it brought me back to a time when I was more at ease and relaxed and enjoyed "just being." You are always a joy to watch and listen to while I put my makeup on for the day. Thank you for creating thoughtful, funny, and colorful content! I appreciate you.
I love learning cool words in other languages that express such a specific emotion/description that we don’t have a direct translation for in English. Thanking you for sharing another one!
I can't explain how cute it is to see you having a crazy weird makeup day, I don't feel so alone and I have all the respect in the world watching you power through it like a true boss😂😂, and I love my brushes Angie they are perfect❤❤
Thank you so much!
Love talking about unused products and older products! I find it interesting... I would love a whole video similar to.. "What do you love, but do not use?" There are many makeup and clothing items i absolutely love, and can't help but buy. But, then I dont end up wearing them. Not because they are not amazing!
My makeup weaknesses include vampy red-black lipsticks, bright bold blush, metallic liquid eyeshadow. Yet, I barely wear them.. VERY rarely. 🤣
Yes! That’s how Nomad picked me. I’m a huge fan and they asked me to join their pr because I genuinely enjoy their products!
I've been decluttering my life, and it's been absolutely amazing. There are things we can all do to be better, but as long as we never stop learning!!🖤💚
In Dutch, we would say tevreden. Sometimes translating words literally to another language goes really well, but the nuance is different. The feeling of the word is different from what you mean in the other language.
Thats so nice to hear, you are right, we should learn to be content, I am always so pressured about the future, about a better job, a better house EVERYTHING, I feel that I am not enjoying the moment because of my constant pressuring myself 😢
I would love to see you film a wardrobe declutter Angie!
Angelica i love your answer on the last question...CONTENT ❤ I think the constant..competition for more or better,makes people missing or forgets about important things in the life ! Not materialistic!
I want to see the wardrobe declutter!
40:02 WOW Ange, your words seriously brought tears to my eyes!! I have been trying to tell my husband this for SO long and I couldn't figure out how to say it. Thank you so much just for being you! You are truly an amazing human being and I'm glad you let us along for the ride
I'm SO glad you loved Dungeons and Dragons! My best friend, who is not into any nerd stuff, also loved it. I'm so sad they didn't do a real makeup collab (and a bundle with NYX does not count) for the film! I would have bought it all.
I love how upfront, honest, and candid you are. Your channel is definitely one of my top favs. I’m so excited to watch your brand sore and see the success you have. You definitely deserve it. With that being said, I LOVE my Singe brushes. So much so that I need to purchase another set or two because I get so disappointed when they’re dirty 😂
I gotta say thank you so much for addressing not using enough spf to reach the target of the product I see so many Creators applying their SPF and saying how important it is , but they’re not applying enough or they mix it with something else and when you mix it you dilute it. There’s more ppl than not that do not know how much needs to be applied in order for it to be any type of affective at all , I think a video on sunscreen would be great and informative to many people because nobody wants the bas effects of the sun showing up in a few yrs on their face . Had to edit in how you saved that yellow blush so freaking beautifully I got eyes and I think it turned out STUNNING!
Always love a chatty GRWM - also love the concept of using items we forgot we bought - we've all been there! I also love the earrings - every time you wear them I always think how pretty they are - whoever bought you them send them my compliments! 🧡 I loved the thoughts you had on being content, this is something I am striving towards in my 30s as well.
Absolutely loved your TedTalk ❤️
🙈❤
I love the last section with the discussion on words and differences between languages.
I totally relate on the new business side... working on creating a retreat business for women at 40+ to assist them in identifying what brings them joy and creates contentment.
I love your outlook on life,very inspiring and reminds me I’m doing okay!! 😌
Such a sunny and outspoken personality, you really lift me up 😊 ☀️ and yes, I am so proud when somebody or a brand I like gets bigger! Good luck with Singe, you totally deserve it!
I love how open you are about not wanting kids. So many women I think are scared to say that because it’s just ingrained into so many people that they need to reproduce and I don’t think that’s the case. My twin sister doesn’t want to have any kids and I don’t blame her. She should enjoy her life as much as possible without them and she’s honestly not missing out on something that she herself never experienced anyways (yes, I’m sure people are going to judge me for that sentence and I really don’t care. She never knew what it was like to have kids and so she’s legit not missing out on something that she never was aware of. These are facts.) I have one kid and I love him to death. Hes 16… But I knew right after I had him that I didn’t want to have anymore and…originally I didn’t want to have any kids to begin with. With that being said… I don’t regret having a kid… I just am not a super maternal person and there are some people that are meant to have kids and love it and enjoy it and want more and then there’s people that just don’t want kids and you shouldn’t make people feel bad for not wanting to have children. I admire the fact that you don’t want to have kids. Kudos to you.
You undid your video on a perfect topic! Thank you for encouraging me to reflect on how content I am in my own life!
I would absolutely die for you to make a pink brush set!!!!
I was a foster kid and trust me it's a lot of help needed special for a good foster home 🏡💕
Sharing your words of wisdom is what made me subscribe and keep watching after the first video I watched of yours! I love the makeup and life advice all in one. You're very inspirational, i love thinking of different perspective... thank you!
You’re such a go getter. I think your life seems super full and that you do such a good job working for and toward making your aspirations happen. Lots to be proud of! I’m a mom, but I get not needing to be one. In fact I see you as super nurturing with your lovely fur babies, so you ARE fulfilling that side of you. ❤
I recently heard something that really switched up my perspective of how I judge this particular age of a human's quality of life (hope that made sense lol) So apparently, in our current era, even people living below the poverty line live more comfortably than royalty did 100-150yrs ago and that really opened my eyes to how much stuff is just excess. I've never been one to need or even want the best, most expensive or newest things on the market, but that fact still makes me want to appreciate even the most basic stuff more than I have in the past. A lot of things in the world might really suck right now, but I still want to acknowledge how lucky I am to have been born in this era, as opposed to how my grandmother (who was born in 1919) grew up in rural PuertoRico. I mean, the first house my mom lived in was built by my grandfather and didn't have running water or electricity. They didn't move to the mainland (NYC) until the late 60's and I can remember my grandmother talking about how much of a culture shock it was being here.
I am in my early forties. Next year i will have 20 years of marriage and we do not have children. We do not miss children. We have furr children which we love and we are pretty content like this. And still after all this time i still have questions from persons around me and even strangers if i have children. When i tell them no, it is almost always “you are still young, you can still have them”. Like i do not know my own mind. It drives me bonkers 😮
Content. What a peaceful word, what an important feeling to strive for. Lovely video, as always! 😊
My 'rule of thumb' is .....if I have not used/worn something in the last year it goes. I am considerably older than you and have had.more time to collect 'stuff'. I keep sentimental things however, I have also streamlined those too. You look gorgeous, iffy blush and all.
Gosh I just love you Angie, you have such a genuinely wonderful soul.
Honestly I have no idea why the saying about Swedes and Danes can’t be friends even exist, because I know if we met in real life, I could definitely see us being real friends!
You are so honest and true to who you are, which is an amazing person, I hope you are having an awesome day with your loved ones🫶☺️.
I have a goal to read 50 books for a reading challenge my library organizes. I did the challenge last year at for the first time in years it pushed me to read a lot! And many books that I typically wouldn't read :)
Oh I had that challenge one year, 1 book a week for a year. It was so fun! :D
hands down you’re my favorite creator!! i look forward to these kinds of videos. i love your opinion and that you aren’t afraid to express it!
I got married in September. After that EVERY TIME I was feeling tired or sick everybody was like ARE YOU PREGNANT? WHEN ARE YOU HAVING KIDS? I MEAN, YOU ARE NOW 33... and honestly it was so annoying, such a bad taste, you don't know the person, you don't know if they are struggling or if the question will cause trauma or if it's just annoying because HEY IT'S 2023 I THINK I CAN CONSIDER MYSELF AS A FULLY FUNCTIONAL AND FULFILLED WOMAN EVEN IF I'M NOT A MOTHER....
I love that both of your words are sort of related. One to having just the right amount of something and one being the feeling of life being just the right way right for you!
I've said this time and again, not only are we similar in tones but also in preferences and your understanding of the colour wheel is just chef kiss. But you also know how to use tools, like in your demos you give notes on technique... even in my No-Buy I'll watch you test something new because your videos aren't just First Impressions. I think you could really do something unique and special with Singe, and idgaf if your next item doesn't come out until next year or two years... I trust your process.
it’s so invigorating hearing you speak, it makes me feel like maybe I’m not that crazy and I’m not alone in the world when it comes to taking a big breath and just enjoying what I (fortunately) already have. Yes, being content is super important! And it’s not a signal of failure, as modern society would have you believe. Striving for stability and peace of mind feels much more healthy than this incurable disease of wanting more just for the sake of it. (Even for companies, what’s wrong with having a steady profit, having your employees protected and well payed and not feeling the need to burn everything in your path just to get “more”, which is never enough?).
Anyway, I feel like if we ever crossed paths we’d have some really nice conversations 😅
I love watching your channel everyday and getting inspiration on new eye looks. I just ordered your brush set today, did Priority Mail, can't wait to get them , you and Heather are my two favorite creators on UA-cam, I sit down everyday and do my makeup watching your channel. Love the get ready with me videos.
I am so grateful to have found you and your channel, and now your new brand. You represent true beauty. Your heart seems to be as pure and radiant as your sweet face. You are down-to-earth and very real and relatable. I enjoy your content more than any other influencer I’ve ever watched. Thank you for being such a standout. ❤️❤️❤️
I am so glad I picked up your brushes ❤ they are seriously amazing like you said and fit my hooded eyes perfectly!! I gotta pick up another set and I can’t wait for the time you so release more ❤❤❤
Yay! Thank you!
girl, “i don’t feel like it” is the BEST answer to “why aren’t you having kids?” 😂 stealing this.
What a GORGEOUS eye look!!! 😍😍😍
I am excited and awaiting my delivery. I am an hour away from you so I know it will be here quickly. TBH, I am grateful you took your time to curate your brush collection. If you did not, I would be disappointed in you. I don't like frequent releases. It's overwhelming and most are not well done. Congrats again on your inaugural brand release! Also, I commend you on trying for work/life balance. I am struggling with that- ALWAYS!😂
Thank you! :D
LOVE your answer to the last question
All this video is so much yes to absolutely everything Angie. I am 40, also a workaholic, struggling with dont lose myself on work 24/7 hahaha and yes, I need more balance. Also, hell yes to be content. Nobody need a mansion and a ferrari. You arent taking that to your grave or to the next life.
You answered these questions so very well I personally think that you have a very good strong knowledge on how to speak on certain topics being as honest and upfront as you can without over sharing or stepping on toes , I find it very very important to know that you will not allow yourself to be silenced for a paycheque your morals and integrity are very important to you and should be for everyone. Sadly we know that many people are willing to do many things for that all mighty dollar yes we all need money to survive in this World to eat, pay our bills have a roof over heads be able to clothe ourselves, but for so many it needs to be all done in the most lavish lifestyle possible and that means lots of the time not being as honest as they should of course this is not everyone but in this space it happens to be the very very big names that seem to have allergies to honesty some are so honest and truthful in their reviews they’ve never not once taken a Sponsorship or done an Ad because they do not to deal with any of that side of the business yet they’ve hit well over a million subscribers. You can do Ads and take Sponsorships and still be honest it is very possible and I see it with you Angie as well many others that can give an honest review and still earn money , we see you talk very highly of a Brand/ product for yrs sometimes before if ever making a cent from said Brand I think there’s many Creators that can learn things from smaller Creators not the other way around. I have a handful of Creators that I literally watch every single video or short they do because I know I can trust them and I find them likeable, I don’t need to relate to the person to really enjoy them you’re not relatable in any way to me but your values and honesty are something I respect and unfortunately earning my respect can be difficult especially in the space. I hope you have a fantastic day enjoy your beautiful weather I am currently getting blasted with a Winter Blizzard at the moment 30 cm of snow can’t see out any of my windows there covered in snow, I bet you’re just loving the Texas weather much more than the weather back in Sweden this time of yr our Counties have very similar weather conditions albeit very very very far away from each other.
Here’s the thing Angie, I was gonna give you the compliment that “you have a good head on your shoulders”… then I thought about how strange of an English phrase that is. Why would you tell someone heyy I like your head? I dunno LOL! We’ll go with a different phrasing and I’ll say that I always admire your intelligence and awareness of self and others, Angie! You’re a good role model if younger girls are watching. Never stop being you xo ❤
It sounds like what you are talking about is decluttering your fantasy self. You dream all these things with certain items but they're just a person that you wish you were but really aren't.
Also, I love a yellow blush
I am now sing,e at 64, bought a mobile home that needs updated so I could move out of my sons house after moving with him after a break up, but let me say I wake up and go to sleep feeling content. I paid for it on my own, I have a job and I work from home, and I am just happy. If you saw it you might think oh it’s out of the 90’s but it’s clean and it’s all. Ine. And it makes me happy
This was fun... the look turned out beautifully. I hope ur enjoying ur vacation.... love ya 💕💕
I love how you elaborated on contentment ❤ such a good reminder !
Yassss content with your life for you not for others 💅🏻💅🏻💅🏻
I love how you so much about Business! You'll go so far than you ever think you would! I ❤ you and your intellectual discussions.
I absoulty LOVE your brushes and plan on purchasing another set. If anyone is thinking about purchasing these brushes DO IT.
I’m having a major allergy attack today and your comments about the yellow Made By Mitchell blush gave me a much needed laugh. ❤
Wonderful video and very informative.
You are absolutely right about saving for a home. The more you put down, the less your mortgage will be.
I saved and bought my 1st home at 25 year’s old. I put a nice amount down so my mortgage was low and my interest rate. I got a 15 year mortgage.
I was grateful enough to pay it off early. 🙏🏽
Me and my brother got into buying homes, fixing them up really good and then selling them. That actually brought the neighborhood property up.
Pleaseee vlog if you declutter your wardrobe ❤️
This was a great video. I haven't bought your brushes yet but they are definitely on my wishlist 😊
Decluttering my life is my goal this year too. I'm going into it with the mindset that if I passed tomorrow, I don’t want to burden my family with having to clean my place of knick knacks and things with no meaning. So far its been going okay, I literally found a full on desktop computer that I haven't even taken out of the box. 😮💨
Great message at the end ❤ love your videos & view point !
oh man, I totally have forgotten about that lunar beauty palette! thank you for the continuous creativity (:
Watch out Riccardo, Angi's Garbage Bag is coming out 🤣 Hide the things you want to keep.
Love the tinted base, might have to purchase it for myself even though we are coming into our Autumn/Winter time here in Australia we still need some form of SPF protection. ❤
haha yeah watch out, I'm coming for all visible loose items 😂
I haven't been able to get your brush set yet. But as soon as possible I will be getting a set or two. Your channel was the second channel I started watching when I first found the makeup world on UA-cam. Most days you were the first video I watched. I'm so so happy for you. You have always been so devoted to your channels uploads and honestly your viewers. You can tell that you really love makeup and talking about it and giving us real and honest reviews. Watching your videos is like just sitting down with a best friend and talking. I really hope you have continued success in whatever it is you choose for your future. OK now I'm sounding like your mother or guidance counselor from highschool. Lol
Awh thank you so much for your sweet comment! ❤
Thank you for the TED Talk. Most enjoyable. I wonder if "enough" might be a comparable word for your Swedish word meaning not too little and not too much? Just a thought. You really are a ray of light.❤
Good morning Angie! This sounds like fun! I hope you have a great day! 😊🧡💛💚🤎🩷💙💜
Good morning!
This red looks so fantastic on you 🥰🥰🥰
Omg so glad you reminded me of D&D movie!! Was thinking of what to take the kids this weekend. Love the bases I haven’t seen them in store
I FINALLY got back from a trip and got to open my new brushes!!! Love the color of the handle, love how soft the bristles are and that they’re a dark brown in color (helps do I don’t stress about staining!) and they applied my shadows last night (I too used the warrior 2 lol) perfectly! They were small and precise and I really think I might need to buy another two sets!
Yeaj I'm so happy you enjoy them :D
Love, will have to leave a review. Hope this is an incredibly successful venture for you
Yeahhhh, I love any and all make up tuts, especially from the color Queen
Beautiful insight. I loved your TED talk. 🌻💛🌻💛
Remembering to take time for fun here and there is challenging for me... this Wednesday, I am treating myself to a museum day in downtown Austin.
oh that sounds lovely! :D
@Angelica Nyqvist Going to Bob Bullock and Blanton, while wearing a cute outfit and of course makeup
Work life balance is very important. That is great that you have been able to do other fun things recently and to hopefully rest a bit.
I know this would be work related, but if you are interested in doing a jewelry collection and de clutter on your Chanell I would totally watch that. You’ve got an interesting style.
Expat life and international calls 🙃 that’s such throwback for me and now I really appreciate EU lol
Childfree lifestyle is not for everyone and I have to say I have it easy my parents/family are fine with it and I don’t live in a country that is culturally obsessed with natalism (people understand not everyone can have kids). Last time I had conversation about kids it was like 4-5 years ago and they couldn’t grasp that if my partner wanted kids I would just set them free - if their goals in life are different than mine we are clearly not made for eachother. One of us will be unhappy so what is the point of staying together. That’s catastrophy in progress IMO.
Thanks for the video ❤ byee
I wonder how that yellow blush would preform as a mixer when you feel another cream or liquid blush you have is too cool toned? Especially bc we all know your preferences are warm blushes! I would love to see that tested
Angie i would love to see your wardrobe declutter like in a vlog or something 😅 ! I have stopped buying things that don't fit me or i am sure will not wear , i try to be more thoughtful about this part of my life and not throw with money everywhere!
Also as a side note , me and my husband have decided to have one child, my son is 1 and 1/2 years old and some people started to be really adamant about our second child, even though we specifically said that we don't want to have more than one! Everybody should mind their own business!
Hi Angelica. This is the first time that I comment your video and I just want to say I really enjoy watching them ❤❤ hope you do more collection videos like top 10 blushes exc just a small suggestion 😜
Thank you so much!!
Love your eye look, i have to try red and silver, love your honest tallk and way of thinking.
