The Glow Recipe Strawberry serum, smells exactly like my aunt who passed away from Leukemia in 2011. So now I always atleast have a bottle to smell, even if it's empty, I just like smelling it because it reminds me of her so much. It's crazy how scents can do that
i have a product that for some reason gives me a feeling of nostalgia whenever i smell it, but i can't put my finger on what moment exactly it reminds me of. it's so weird how my brain somehow remembers that smell yet i've completely forgotten the moment itself!
I wonder if the perfume brand do the memory trick by using scents that have gone out of fashion. By using scents that were really popular 20-30 years ago but have gone out of fashion, they might be able to trigger memories from when us millennials were children. Haley remembered her aunt hugging her, she probably remembers her aunt's perfume.
omg that would make so much sense! I was thinking “ what if they put the smell of the 90s in a bottle, but how would they do that?! “ and I feel like you just gave the answer lol
I bought this perfume and it totally smells like cheap drugstore perfume from the late 90's to me. I do not like it at all, so this theory makes sense.
As a fragrance enthusiast, Missing Person is OK. I’ve smelled better musky scents that last and perform better. MP has the average “skin” note which is what most people are probably reacting to, but just like the name - this perfume goes MISSING after 30 mins! If y’all like these kinds of fragrances, check out: Skin by Clean Reserve: very similar to MP, literally smells like fresh out of the shower clean skin without smelling soapy, better performance and lasting power Musk 12 by Kayali: MP’s more interesting, successful cousin. Slightly sweeter, touch floral and powdery, really smells like a warm, comforting hug. Instead of getting compliments on your perfume, folx will compliment YOU bc this makes you smell put together and classy. Also better performance and lasting power than MP

I had the same reaction to Jo Malone’s Blackberry and Bay perfume. I tried it in the shop, and when I smelt it, I instantly thought of my dad - so much so that I turned around, because I thought he was standing behind me. My dad died in 2011. Can’t to this day know why I had this reaction.
the neutrogena hydro boost moisturizer was great for me in the beginning. last winter, the corners of my lips were so dry, they were red and itchy. it was also hard for me to open up my mouth bc it would cause more irritation. the hydro boost moisturizer helped me so much. but later on it started making me oilier and wasn’t locking in hydration like it used to.
The Neutrogena Hydro Boost moisturizer was a life-saver when I had major rosacea flare-ups. My nose could be a broken-skinned flaky, bloody leaky mess and I would just glob that stuff onto it - basically slugging. It made it feel so soothed and really helped with the dryness. I've got my medication now but I always keep a container of it around for bad skin days. I get dry patches on my scalp sometimes too and I'll just work some of it into the scalp at the roots, instant relief.
My problem with the Neutrogena moisturizer is that it feels nice going and it seems like it should work really well, but then I'm always dry again a short time later
Everyone wants the dewy glazed donut look and here’s me with my oily skin just wanting to be as matte as possible 😂 although to be fair there’s a difference between healthy glow and greasy mess 😅 and I always end up being the greasy mess 😫

I don’t think body wash frags last either. It’s great during the bath, most rinses off & hangs out for a bit. Maybe if my nose is pressed into my skin. But once my clothes are on, it’s pretty much gone.👍❤️
The only bodywashes I've ever used that left a lasting fragrance were LUSH bodywashes, and that was a. only if I used a fair amount and b. not surprising given you can smell a LUSH store for a kilometer away, hahahah.
There used to be the concept of "fragrance layering". I think it died at some point in the 1990s though. Brands would have multiple scented products. I was a YSL Paris girl back in the day and I had soap, perfume and body powder. I turn back into a teen every time I smell it!
really? I use Bath and Body Works Japanese Cherry Blossom body wash and I smell great for up to 12 hrs. And I do not use too much of it as a single bottle lasts me upwards of two months.
@@HikaruRain yea it doesn’t for me!😓 Just for a bit, but def not all day. Thank goodness I lack BO glands. Maybe sunscreen over powers it? Idk. I only wash my hair 1-2 times a week & shampoo fragrance lasts the entire time.🤯👍❤️
As an InnBeauty user- I love face glaze . It’s beautiful. But I like moisture . It’s thicker than Saie Dewy Gel and A more skincare based formula than Elf and CT . So it’s incredibly useful - I love it and been using all kinds of ways for about a year.
Yes!!! Please make a video on your favorite sunscreen compacts! I live in Florida and I’m constantly trying to find a sunscreen I can feel comfortable in with my oily skin
I'm curious how much of the nostalgic experience of the fragrance is due to the actual fragrance and how much is from the power of suggestion. Regardless, it sounds Iike it would smell nice. 😆
I thought the same thing but I feel not everyone can be influenced that way. I for one would immediately not have that reaction to it because I wouldn't want to be influenced😂 I also feel like James is pretty skeptical so his reaction surprised me an made me think it was legit.
I’m not an expert, but I worked in food museum for a few years.memory is greatly linked to taste/smell. Not sure if this is a fact, but apparently part of ur taste/smell is form memory. That’s also triggered by things like sight, which further complicates it. Also sounds like it’s a mix of rly popular scents, that could also be a factor.
@@lovesplus3879 that's a good point, it may use a mix of enough really common scents that almost everyone will have a memory associated with one of them
@@denaemichele I think that’s it. A lot of classic scents in it combined so it reminds everyone of someone. Genius! I want it now lol … also they use skin musk not human musk.
James! Would you be able to make a video about your filler and cosmetic procedures? 😊Your filler looks really natural which I feel isn’t usually the case with other people! any tips you might have about the whole process too would be great to hear
“Now what?” 🤣 that’s me every time I get in a bathtub to have that “amazing and relaxing soaking time” but to me… it just means soaking in my own filth haha
This summer I’ve discovered Clarins spf 30 compact, it’s tinted and I haven’t used my regular foundation even one single time:) First was applying TYF spf 50 and topping it with Clarins. Love. Silicone cushion is discussing though, changed it to a regular cushion for liquid formulas. Used it the whole spring and summer till finally trying Colorescience Flex + spf in loose powder😄
I'm an LMT (in America) and the face "yoga" and massage is definitely a thing. Not only does it relieve jaw tension and headaches but it can really help with lymphatic drainage. I even do intraoral massage where I put on gloves and massage the jaw muscles from both sides. Everyone thinks it's so weird until they try it and it relieves so much pain and tension. Also you're not the only one who doesn't like back massages. I myself jump off the table when a therapist touches my low back, I'm so ticklish 😂
I've been using the Neutrogena Hydroboost gel cream and the Hydroboost sunscreen, and for my skin and my climate, they are really doing the job. I've also found that good moisturizer helps plump up pores and minimize them.
omg yes. I've been using both the day and night moisturisers and I have really oily skin. Even though they're made for dry skin they make my skin feel like a glazed doughnut without making it feel heavy. I love them sooooo much
So you’re telling me that your hair looks this amazing product free and supposedly greasy? You have been definitely blessed by the gods 😂 good for you 👍😎
The Neutrogena Hydro Boost range RUINED my skin. My face started burning and feeling so sensitive to touch. It was great initially but long term it just didn't work out for me. Shame because it did look nice and it has a lovely texture.
Oh my ... I use the water gel moisturizer sometimes.. I've heard so many people have bad reactions after a while I think I'll stick with my snail 92 cream .. here's wishing your skin is healed quickly 😊
My Dad had the same reaction! It's a bit heavy for me but it's definitely something I can tolerate. I was really surprised that my Dad had such a bad reaction. I use Ren's cream for when I've overdone it. Also plain cortisone cream will help with redness and itching. I went to a dermatologist at one point and that was the active ingredient in one of her products. If you can handle the cream it usually comes in, try it! You probably have it in your first aid kit anyway, might as well give it a shot! Hope you're doing better now! ❤️
I use the Neutrogena moisturiser on oily skin and it is the best one I have found! I don't get as oily throughout the day, and it is very often on offer in Boots or Superdrug. I personally really like the smell of it is as it is so neutral and not overpowering at all.
The neutrogena hydroboost sleeping cream has a jelly like consistency that's quite nice. I used it during the summer and now going into the winter I've been using it and then putting a heavier moisturiser over top for extra hydration in the cooler months 😊
Would love to see a video on sunscreen compacts. Also, please show us how you do your nails. I'm with you about body wash being a sensorial experience while in the shower.
If you want a "glazed donut" look...Versed Skin Soak will do it and Vanicream moisturizer. Also the Fleur perfume smells just like any another fragrance to me...idk what to say sorry guys lol Thanks for the video James 💚💜
That neutrogena hydro boost gel moisturiser gave me THE worst skin, what I would equate to fungal acne, especially on my forehead. I stopped using only that moisturiser and my skin completely cleared up. It’s the only product to ever have done that, so those who get fungal acne type pimples - be careful with it 😬
@@JL_Lux Not usually, no. I might get a couple pimples around my chin/mouth/cheek area at certain times of my monthly hormonal cycle, or because I’ve been touching those areas more often (usually when I’m doing lots of studying and leaning my face on my hands), but I basically never get pimples on my forehead like I was getting when I used the hydroboost moisturiser. I hadn’t changed anything in my routine except for that moisturiser, and then when I took only that away and went back to the Cerave moisturising cream, the bumps and pimples on my forehead completely cleared, and I don’t get nearly as many on my chin/mouth/cheek area either. I also only use either La Roche Posay Effaclar micro-peeling cleanser or Cerave hydrating cleanser.
@@banana-ng2gz then that’s all i need to know. Cuz i don’t but if it sparks it for some i usually stay away. Plus i prefer serums over a moisturizer that has it all.
I think on my pail face that cushion would be perfect. I got a go to winter birch cream which saved my red and irritated nose few times already. It works better than anything you can get in pharmacy. I always bring back a pack when I'm in Poland, it's our natural brand Sylveco. I also like their scrub lip balms.
I always love learning about skincare and products, I'm not very good at putting on facial makeup to cover blemishes, so I decided to splurge on effective skincare products instead of expensive makeup.
Here in the US nuetrogena hydro boost water gel moisturizer is like $30.. the mini is like $8... I forgot how great this stuff is for my oily skin... It makes my skin so soft and just looks so nice... The hydro boost cleanser is the absolute best on retinol nights (cosrx low pH is my reg) I've tried many cleansers but none are like hydro boost for my skin
I love the Neutrogena hydro boost gel cream! The water gel was horrible for my skin strangely enough but the gel cream is perfect. They have similar packaging so I've been fooled.
Ok well you absolutely just SOLD that fragrance. I've been kinda sorta interested in the Missing Person by Phlur....but YOU just sold it for me right there. lol
Face ball is very dangerous if you have TMJ. I used it, barely any pressure, and got lock jaw. Totally triggered my TMJ and I was in pain for weeks. Hydro boost moisturizer is amazing for my skin.
Facial massage has a lot of benefits for chronic pain and tension. With headaches, sinus pain and tmj/orthodontic pain. I have chronic migraines, and I use my skincare time for 10 minutes of face and scalp massage. It hasn't got rid of any of my issues, but it has given me a lot of pain relief, distraction, and it's had a positive mental health impact.
I’ve been using the neutrogena serum twice daily onto wet skin and immediately applying my dermeze moisturising cream, it’s been the missing piece of my skincare reoutine, without it my skin dries out within minutes of applying my moisturiser and I would wake up with horribly dry skin, now it feels moisturised all day and all night
Not sure which Neutrogena Hydroboost moisturizer you ended up with- but my preference is the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel-Cream with Hyaluronic Acid for Extra-Dry Skin- I find the experience to be way more luxe and satisfying for my skin (which is less oily) !
First, you're GORGEOUS!! Ok 2, body washes are meant to be the first step in a layering of scents. Sooooo, lingering is good if it vibes with your other fragrances. 3rd, that blue serum was wrong. It absolutely should be more blue. I've never seen it that color before. Oh yes I almost forgot.. in my opinion. ☺
Ahh I’m so bummed you didn’t like the Neutrogena serum, because it’s my favorite moisturizing serum I’m using at the moment. You definitely have the wrong one though. The one with the blue label has more, better ingredients in it. The ingredients that sets the blue label serum apart from the rest is Xylitylglucoside/Xylitol/Anhydroxylitol. This is an amazing moisturizer, that regulates oil production, and helps the skin retain moisture. It’s soooo good. When I’m shopping for moisturizers I always make sure it has these ingredients in everything I buy. These ingredients are also in the Plum Plump cream from Glow Recipe. This is why I also buy, and love that cream so much. These ingredients are what makes the Plum Plump soooo good, so plumping, and so moisturizing. I’m so bummed you got the wrong serum dammit 😢
The face ball did nothing for the way my face looks, but, boy, did it relieve my sinus pressure! My 13 year old twins use it for migraines and jaw pain.
I was a little disappointed in the roundlab sun cushion as well. Their sunscreen is my absolute favourite but I was very underwhelmed by the cushion. Would love to hear which chemical sun cushions you recommend!
I don’t think face yoga really does anything significant for appearance or anti aging etc, but it will be great for people who feel tight in their facial muscles. Many people suffer with headaches and pain due to facial muscles being tight or strained!! So face yoga and massage is great, but more for a functional purpose than aesthetic!
I'm so curious about that scent now! I'm not a fragrance wearer, it usually gives me a headache, but you got me super curious. Something that would evoke emotions like that seems so intriguing.
James, that sunscreen actually looks good on you. I'm a zinc oxide sunscreen fan but some white casts are too dramatic (cue in Axis-Y and Frudia) even for my pale skin. This is actually a rather good finish and looks good on you.
I believe she's using the extra dry Hydro boost gel cream moisturizer, it's pretty common/popular in dry skin moisturizer lists but might be a US exclusive cause I can't find it in Australia or on the AU/UK websites, seems the range is much larger in the US. apparently they also have a US Hydro boost + range I'm curious about.
The pressure for facial massage shouldn't be harsh because of the delicate structures underneath, but firm is debatable among my massage colleagues. Also a lot of people don't like being touched/massaged in certain areas, its all good.
i used the neutrogena gel cream the one with trehalose in the name. really liked it. my bf likes it too. i went now on incidecoder because i was curious what the ingredients are and i realised there are so many similar ones, had to go back to the bottle and check the actual name. i suppose all do the same stuff, they have similar ingredients. the mattiness u see might be from the ton of dimethicone in it which i liked, i felt like i had satin on my skin
I went through a period of always repurchasing the Neutrogena Hydro Boost moisturiser but it really doesn’t doing anything! Feels more like a serum and leaves skin feeling dry after about an hour, they should maybe market it to oily skin not dry!?
I don't know about wanting my face to look like a glazed doughnut, I'd rather eat one...especially if it's got jam in it 😋 mmm! The fragrance sounds intriguing 🤔.
Ok...fragrances are tricky for me. But I'm taking your word and just used your link and bought a travel size ($26) missing person. Fingers crossed 🤞 it sound incredibly intriguing.
I wasn't a fan of the Hydroboost Serum. My skin never felt like it had that "drink of water" which I typically like from a hydrating serum. I have seen major benefits from facial massage and "Face yoga" in my treatments. My clients love it and those who incorporate it into their home routine have noticed a difference! Cheek bones and jawline more noticeable and forehead lines less visible do to the reduced tension, fluid retention and muscle toning!
The facegym ball is incredible! The key is not getting tense in the neck while using it. Go get a facegym facial-they have one in London….Omg. Best facial EVER.
Hi James. Have you ever tired anything from La Roche Posay? My dermatologist recommended it to me but I’ve also seen it sold in Target and Amazon. Wanted to know your thoughts about it
I might need to try that Round Lab reapply compact I need some no tone ones cause the compacts that are available literally are too dark for my pale ass
Phlurs Missing Person is sooo good.. I can barely smell it on myself so sometimes I’d go overboard spraying it and from my family’s comments lol… “you smell SO strong, too much perfume” though I can’t smell it on myself. So now I’m sparing with it and trust that others can smell it on me 😂😂 I don’t think this scent really smells like anything nostalgic but it’s a great unique scent (I will say- to spray it on your clothes instead of your skin, I had an allergic reaction to it but still got the full size after finishing the travel size LOL)
Please do a video on spf compacts. I bought the IWLT one on yes style, thinking it would be a good idea and the packaging was cute. But It made my skin look purple and smelt like roses
I hate massages too!! Im not a touchy feeling person . I don't like a stranger touching me much less with no clothes on I'll pass. I still love the spa though. I love that serum from Neutrogena! Hands down the best to get hydration without it being greasy.As a person with combination skin. I highly recommend

Also you're not the only one who doesn't like back massages. I myself jump off the table when a therapist touches my low back, I'm so ticklish 😂
I've been using the Neutrogena Hydroboost gel cream and the Hydroboost sunscreen, and for my skin and my climate, they are really doing the job. I've also found that good moisturizer helps plump up pores and minimize them.
omg yes. I've been using both the day and night moisturisers and I have really oily skin. Even though they're made for dry skin they make my skin feel like a glazed doughnut without making it feel heavy. I love them sooooo much
So you’re telling me that your hair looks this amazing product free and supposedly greasy? You have been definitely blessed by the gods 😂 good for you 👍😎
The Neutrogena Hydro Boost range RUINED my skin. My face started burning and feeling so sensitive to touch. It was great initially but long term it just didn't work out for me. Shame because it did look nice and it has a lovely texture.
I had the same reaction! I was so disappointed.
Oh my ... I use the water gel moisturizer sometimes.. I've heard so many people have bad reactions after a while I think I'll stick with my snail 92 cream .. here's wishing your skin is healed quickly 😊
I’ve never had so many breakouts as when I was using that. I threw away everything and never again
It did the same thing to me! It made my skin so sensitive for days after. Thankfully I’d only got a small sample and not a whole jar.
My Dad had the same reaction! It's a bit heavy for me but it's definitely something I can tolerate. I was really surprised that my Dad had such a bad reaction. I use Ren's cream for when I've overdone it. Also plain cortisone cream will help with redness and itching. I went to a dermatologist at one point and that was the active ingredient in one of her products. If you can handle the cream it usually comes in, try it! You probably have it in your first aid kit anyway, might as well give it a shot! Hope you're doing better now! ❤️
Finally a product you can share with Brie and Bishop
I was going to say that!! HA
I use the Neutrogena moisturiser on oily skin and it is the best one I have found! I don't get as oily throughout the day, and it is very often on offer in Boots or Superdrug. I personally really like the smell of it is as it is so neutral and not overpowering at all.
The neutrogena hydroboost sleeping cream has a jelly like consistency that's quite nice. I used it during the summer and now going into the winter I've been using it and then putting a heavier moisturiser over top for extra hydration in the cooler months 😊
Would love to see a video on sunscreen compacts. Also, please show us how you do your nails.
I'm with you about body wash being a sensorial experience while in the shower.
You need to tell us more about sun cushions - I had never heard of them until this video!!
Me neither, i got so curious!
Me too
glazed donut look is just the same as "korean glass skin" trend. just americanified.
I like the Neutrogena moisturizer, it's a keeper.
tip: always use HA serums on damp skin! it binds to the water molecules so if you use it on dry skin it can actually make your skin dehydrated 😊
No it doesn't. There is zero evidence of that. Stop rehashing things you hear influencers say.
@@itsgonnabeanaurfrommeyou’re right it does not. People always copy shit
Can u pls do a video on best sunscreen reapplying products when u wear makeup please !!!!
Neutrogena HydroBoost is perfect for my combo skin. 💞
If you want a "glazed donut" look...Versed Skin Soak will do it and Vanicream moisturizer. Also the Fleur perfume smells just like any another fragrance to me...idk what to say sorry guys lol Thanks for the video James 💚💜
Can you do a fragrance collection video?? Because your collection looks so pretty from what I saw in one of your podcast vlogs
I’d love to see a video on cushion sunscreens!
16:20 your whole reaction hun!! 🤣 I loved it
That neutrogena hydro boost gel moisturiser gave me THE worst skin, what I would equate to fungal acne, especially on my forehead. I stopped using only that moisturiser and my skin completely cleared up. It’s the only product to ever have done that, so those who get fungal acne type pimples - be careful with it 😬
Do you have acne prone skin?
@@JL_Lux Not usually, no. I might get a couple pimples around my chin/mouth/cheek area at certain times of my monthly hormonal cycle, or because I’ve been touching those areas more often (usually when I’m doing lots of studying and leaning my face on my hands), but I basically never get pimples on my forehead like I was getting when I used the hydroboost moisturiser. I hadn’t changed anything in my routine except for that moisturiser, and then when I took only that away and went back to the Cerave moisturising cream, the bumps and pimples on my forehead completely cleared, and I don’t get nearly as many on my chin/mouth/cheek area either. I also only use either La Roche Posay Effaclar micro-peeling cleanser or Cerave hydrating cleanser.
@@banana-ng2gz then that’s all i need to know. Cuz i don’t but if it sparks it for some i usually stay away. Plus i prefer serums over a moisturizer that has it all.
It’s amazing what messes up the skin! I got “fungal acne” from Cetaphil! Thankfully was able to get it figured out from my dermatologist.
Same happened to me
I think on my pail face that cushion would be perfect. I got a go to winter birch cream which saved my red and irritated nose few times already. It works better than anything you can get in pharmacy. I always bring back a pack when I'm in Poland, it's our natural brand Sylveco. I also like their scrub lip balms.
I love the Neutrogena Hydro Boost body gel cream on my body in the summer. It's the same as the face, but there's more and it's cheaper.
I always love learning about skincare and products, I'm not very good at putting on facial makeup to cover blemishes, so I decided to splurge on effective skincare products instead of expensive makeup.
I really like Innbeauty. I have their Down To Tone toner that has niacinamide, salycilic acid, malic acid, lactic acid,and it’s so good.
I received a sample of the Missing Person and fell in love! Yes, as you said so bizarre the scent reminds you of someone...and it's lovely
I’m obsessed with face glaze and lost cause 😍😍
I love you and all your content but would love to see you review or talk about products that are easier for your UK subscribers to get ❤️
Here in the US nuetrogena hydro boost water gel moisturizer is like $30.. the mini is like $8... I forgot how great this stuff is for my oily skin... It makes my skin so soft and just looks so nice... The hydro boost cleanser is the absolute best on retinol nights (cosrx low pH is my reg) I've tried many cleansers but none are like hydro boost for my skin
I love the Neutrogena hydro boost gel cream! The water gel was horrible for my skin strangely enough but the gel cream is perfect. They have similar packaging so I've been fooled.
Ok well you absolutely just SOLD that fragrance. I've been kinda sorta interested in the Missing Person by Phlur....but YOU just sold it for me right there. lol
I really like the Neutrogena Hydro Boost range. They also have great body lotion from the same line!
I was just watching ur old tiktok skincare videos and now saw this in my inbox!! great timing, have a great sunday James!
Face ball is very dangerous if you have TMJ. I used it, barely any pressure, and got lock jaw. Totally triggered my TMJ and I was in pain for weeks.
Hydro boost moisturizer is amazing for my skin.
You, your skin, and your set up are all so stunning I actually had to restart the video because I was too distracted staring at everything 😅
Hi James, can you please try some of the Greek and Gorgeous products? I've been really curious about the retinal one ...
Facial massage has a lot of benefits for chronic pain and tension. With headaches, sinus pain and tmj/orthodontic pain. I have chronic migraines, and I use my skincare time for 10 minutes of face and scalp massage. It hasn't got rid of any of my issues, but it has given me a lot of pain relief, distraction, and it's had a positive mental health impact.
I’ve been using the neutrogena serum twice daily onto wet skin and immediately applying my dermeze moisturising cream, it’s been the missing piece of my skincare reoutine, without it my skin dries out within minutes of applying my moisturiser and I would wake up with horribly dry skin, now it feels moisturised all day and all night
Not sure which Neutrogena Hydroboost moisturizer you ended up with- but my preference is the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel-Cream with Hyaluronic Acid for Extra-Dry Skin- I find the experience to be way more luxe and satisfying for my skin (which is less oily) !
First, you're GORGEOUS!! Ok 2, body washes are meant to be the first step in a layering of scents. Sooooo, lingering is good if it vibes with your other fragrances. 3rd, that blue serum was wrong. It absolutely should be more blue. I've never seen it that color before. Oh yes I almost forgot.. in my opinion. ☺
Ahh I’m so bummed you didn’t like the Neutrogena serum, because it’s my favorite moisturizing serum I’m using at the moment. You definitely have the wrong one though. The one with the blue label has more, better ingredients in it. The ingredients that sets the blue label serum apart from the rest is Xylitylglucoside/Xylitol/Anhydroxylitol. This is an amazing moisturizer, that regulates oil production, and helps the skin retain moisture. It’s soooo good. When I’m shopping for moisturizers I always make sure it has these ingredients in everything I buy.
These ingredients are also in the Plum Plump cream from Glow Recipe. This is why I also buy, and love that cream so much. These ingredients are what makes the Plum Plump soooo good, so plumping, and so moisturizing. I’m so bummed you got the wrong serum dammit 😢
I love the idea of that roller ball for my face!!!
The face ball did nothing for the way my face looks, but, boy, did it relieve my sinus pressure! My 13 year old twins use it for migraines and jaw pain.
I just want to sing the praises of qasil as a physical exfoliation. Gentle yet thorough.
Thanks for the video, James!
I was a little disappointed in the roundlab sun cushion as well. Their sunscreen is my absolute favourite but I was very underwhelmed by the cushion. Would love to hear which chemical sun cushions you recommend!
The power of suggestion about that perfume being a nostalgia tonic is a great marketing tactic....but that's all.
Okay if James approves of the missing person perfume then now I need it. Rip. It’s 90$ but let’s give it a go bahaha
😂😂😂😂😅
Sending thoughts and prayers 😂. Lol
Start with the travel spray before you commit to the $90!
I ordered the travel size for $26 in case it's shit. Lol
@@mcoverstone6492 I might follow your lead, but if
I do really like it nobody’s catching me spending 90 bucks I’d just buy the lotion
I don’t think face yoga really does anything significant for appearance or anti aging etc, but it will be great for people who feel tight in their facial muscles. Many people suffer with headaches and pain due to facial muscles being tight or strained!! So face yoga and massage is great, but more for a functional purpose than aesthetic!
Happy Sunday, James! I’m loving the nail designs today! 💓💜💓💜💓💜
I'm so curious about that scent now! I'm not a fragrance wearer, it usually gives me a headache, but you got me super curious. Something that would evoke emotions like that seems so intriguing.
I think I'm gonna get that fragrance. It sounds like something I would like.
James, that sunscreen actually looks good on you. I'm a zinc oxide sunscreen fan but some white casts are too dramatic (cue in Axis-Y and Frudia) even for my pale skin. This is actually a rather good finish and looks good on you.
I believe she's using the extra dry Hydro boost gel cream moisturizer, it's pretty common/popular in dry skin moisturizer lists but might be a US exclusive cause I can't find it in Australia or on the AU/UK websites, seems the range is much larger in the US. apparently they also have a US Hydro boost + range I'm curious about.
I would be very interested in a video about sunscreen compacts!
The pressure for facial massage shouldn't be harsh because of the delicate structures underneath, but firm is debatable among my massage colleagues. Also a lot of people don't like being touched/massaged in certain areas, its all good.
i used the neutrogena gel cream the one with trehalose in the name. really liked it. my bf likes it too. i went now on incidecoder because i was curious what the ingredients are and i realised there are so many similar ones, had to go back to the bottle and check the actual name. i suppose all do the same stuff, they have similar ingredients. the mattiness u see might be from the ton of dimethicone in it which i liked, i felt like i had satin on my skin
I went through a period of always repurchasing the Neutrogena Hydro Boost moisturiser but it really doesn’t doing anything! Feels more like a serum and leaves skin feeling dry after about an hour, they should maybe market it to oily skin not dry!?
jean-baptiste grenouille approves of the missing person fragrance
“It feels like it’s just moving my filler” 😂😂😂😂lol great video thx James!!
I don't know about wanting my face to look like a glazed doughnut, I'd rather eat one...especially if it's got jam in it 😋 mmm! The fragrance sounds intriguing 🤔.
Ok...fragrances are tricky for me. But I'm taking your word and just used your link and bought a travel size ($26) missing person. Fingers crossed 🤞 it sound incredibly intriguing.
I wasn't a fan of the Hydroboost Serum. My skin never felt like it had that "drink of water" which I typically like from a hydrating serum.
I have seen major benefits from facial massage and "Face yoga" in my treatments. My clients love it and those who incorporate it into their home routine have noticed a difference! Cheek bones and jawline more noticeable and forehead lines less visible do to the reduced tension, fluid retention and muscle toning!
that facial workout my migraines could never 😂
The facegym ball is incredible!
The key is not getting tense in the neck while using it.
Go get a facegym facial-they have one in London….Omg. Best facial EVER.
Hi James. Have you ever tired anything from La Roche Posay? My dermatologist recommended it to me but I’ve also seen it sold in Target and Amazon. Wanted to know your thoughts about it
I might need to try that Round Lab reapply compact I need some no tone ones cause the compacts that are available literally are too dark for my pale ass
We need more fragrance content!! :)
Phlurs Missing Person is sooo good.. I can barely smell it on myself so sometimes I’d go overboard spraying it and from my family’s comments lol… “you smell SO strong, too much perfume” though I can’t smell it on myself. So now I’m sparing with it and trust that others can smell it on me 😂😂 I don’t think this scent really smells like anything nostalgic but it’s a great unique scent (I will say- to spray it on your clothes instead of your skin, I had an allergic reaction to it but still got the full size after finishing the travel size LOL)
I use a perfume oil from riddle that I can’t smell on me half the time but I always get compliments on it!!
Please do a video on spf compacts. I bought the IWLT one on yes style, thinking it would be a good idea and the packaging was cute. But It made my skin look purple and smelt like roses
Wow that face glaze vale looks amazing!!!! I'm so bummed it's not sold anywhere in the UK :(
I've been so curious about the In Beauty products, especially the lip oil because I'm obsessed with lip balms and glosses🤣🤣
I love rainy days!!
The Immbeaty project oil face wash is great to take off make up an I love the serum by them in the green bottle it's so good
I hate massages too!! Im not a touchy feeling person . I don't like a stranger touching me much less with no clothes on I'll pass. I still love the spa though. I love that serum from Neutrogena! Hands down the best to get hydration without it being greasy.As a person with combination skin. I highly recommend
Your lucky it’s rainy! It’s so freaking hot here in Los Angeles! I’m jelly!
yayyy needed this!! 💕
James how do you feel about Glow recipe dew drops being used as a primer ? And it going *viral* ?
Oh my god that iNN beauty product on your skin! You look incredible!
Would love more fragrance reviews from you 🥰
