Missed you guys! Japan was AMAZING 😭 I was sad to leave. I filmed this right before I left and didn't have time to edit it so I wanted to update you a little: Those sneakers saved my LIFE. We walked so much and they kept my feet feeling so comfy 😩 I legit bought a third pair 🥲 Also, the jacket was the only one I brought and it crushed. It fit with every outfit and kept me warm enough without being too heavy. I will be filming a Japan haul soon AND a makeup tutorial using everything I picked up while there, so stay tuned 😘❤
Yay! So happy you’re back, missed you last week. Glad you had a great time in Japan! Wanted to let you know, First Aid Beauty just came out with a new mineral sunscreen…. Thought you might want to check it out :)
I watched a long ad about killing mosquitoes because it was actually interesting...hope you get paid good for the ad cause it's longer 😂(no idea how that works )
@Alexandra Anele seriously ! This guy created something to kill more mosquitos in the area because he gets bad reactions from them. We need more of that. They're absolutely useless and spread disease.
I love how you explain why you like all those things. It actually helps me decide which things to keep and which to declutter. Because your way of thinking inspires me to look at things from a different perspective. I kinda can't find the right words to describe what I mean, hope it comes across correctly. Also: Your explainations might help others decide if they would wanna buy some of those for themselves. Honestly, aren't most people looking for random stuff they really like? Like a perfect bag to carry certain things that still matches your style and is comfortable to "wear". Or a jacket that covers all your needs etc. If I could find the perfect fit right away, I would honestly buy less. I feel like for most things, something's always missing.
This was fun, thanks. I checked out the perfume description because I LOVE fragrance ad copy, and I thought this was fantastic: "Valentino Donna Born in Roma Intense Eau de Parfum women's fragrance is a magnetic floral ambery, pushing vanilla and jasmine into a captivating embrace to glorify magnificent personalities." It sounds like your magnificent personality was genuinely glorified!
I would love a video on how you got “more” dehydrated and then found a solution…..I am oily/dehydrated and at 53 its tough! Thank you! You look sooooo good with that red lip….and the make is on point!!
make sure that you're getting in a good amount of exfoliation in to your weekly routine! if you're surface level dehydrated, your moisturizer won't be able to penetrate properly, which causes excessive oil production. since you're in your 50s you could include exfoliation 2-3 nights a week! for surface level dehydration using a physical exfoliant can be great (acure facial brightening scrub is really nice, mix with cleansing oil and do small gentle circular motions) or a chemical exfoliant (paula's choice BHA toner or biossance squalane & lactic acid). adding these will help your moisturizer absorb MUCH better and in turn your skin won't produce as much oil
I live in Texas and the hard water here is ridiculous 😭 I purchased a filter for my shower head and I really think its been helping! My hair used to get so dry and flakey. I recommend looking into it!
Filters don't remove most minerals tho. If you test the tds even with a filter it's still crazy high. (I also live in Texas) I bought a softener specifically for my shower that actually makes a difference for hard water. I use both the softener and a filter.
You might want to try k-beauty essence mists. I use them for the same purpose you mentioned the avene mist but they add more calming and hydrating ingredients. I’d look into missha for example.
Girl I live on a ranch in the middle of Colorado and we are on well water. We have a ton of rust in our water. Have you tried a shower head filter? You just screw it on your shower head and it helps pull the heavy minerals out of your water.
I don’t know why, but the fact that you thought everything was called “cloud” something was hilarious. And what’s funny, is that the items totally gave cloud vibes!
I’ve had my blissfeel lululemon sneakers for about a year now and I’m obsessed. I wear them at least 5 days a week, I also wore them all over Europe on my honeymoon and they feel the same as the day I got them. 10/10 recommend. I’ve never spent over $100 on running shoes and it’s so worth the splurge.
the Burt's Bees overnight intensive lip balm/cream is FANTASTIC. Ive gone through like 6 jars now. it's the only lip balm that actually fucking works. I feel the difference within a few hours and my lips feel moisturized AND hydrated. I can't live without it. I literally have one by my laptop right now and then 2 backups in my bathroom because I CANNOT run out
Hi ! Do you think you could make a video about powders ? Pressed, setting, translucent they’re all so confusing and I have no idea how it works, when to use what and if I even need to? I trust your input
My FAVORITE lip product is Palmer's cocoa butter swivel stick. I live in the desert so I need major moisturizing products. This is the only "chapstick" that really works in my opinion. Plus you can use it for you cuticles or really anything else that's a little dry.
Great video ty :) Hey I would so love to see your makeup organisation/storage situation like how do you keep your stuff tidy but accessible? My stuff is just in baskets all over the place and in various makeup bags and it feels so disorganised lol
Just so happy to see you♡ and hear everything you have to say♡ We missed you, and also mom says hi♡ &sends love♡ Have a wonderful week and i hope you had a great vacation time ♡
Glad you're back! Love Avene too - the face mist is one of the few things I've subscribed to on Amazon for years. Hope they reach out they are so low key.
The Oribe purple shampoo is amazing... Give it a try if you already haven't! It's pricey but it's so concentrated that you don't need much.. With your short hair it would probably last you a year! lol
Hey pretty lady! I knew a woman who wanted keep her hair a similar color to you, she would but filtered, super pure water in jugs! And only wash her hair with that water! It was always a beautiful tone! Maybe try that for while see if there's any difference!!! ❤ Ur videos
The non-beauty things that I love are boots with zipper on the side and tofu cat litter. The zipper boot is so easy and convenient, and the tofu cat litter is both environmentally friendly and absorb liquid better than those crystal/clay/bentonite litter, plus I could flush it down the toilet.
Feel the same way about mists, but Caudalie's Grape Water has polyphenols from their vinyard and a wee bit of jojoba and I awesome. Their whole vino line is lovely but the Grape Water is really refreshing and cool. I sometimes mist it over my setting powder to get the bare skin finish I get from setting spray.
Hi Alex!!! Welcome back. ❤ I ordered the Plush Ritual bundle with the two newish colors because I was so intrigued by how much you love it. I’m also loving Karla Cosmetics shadow potion. It’s such a gorgeous multichrome paint.
@@AlexandraAnele Thank you! I hope you love it as well! I bought Snooze and ordered Lullaby last night from Camera Ready Cosmetics. Karla also has beautiful little loose pigments in her Opal line. I got Bubble Bath and ordered Birdsong last night because I also love shopping 🛍️🥲.
I looked at 2 of your jewelry videos and I didn’t see where these earrings are from. Love them and can’t seem to find this exact shape anywhere 😭 Would love to know where you got them!
Sonofa….friggin A, Alexandra, I did NOT need another perfume but I just so happened to be in Sephora directly after watching this video and scoped out the new Valentino. Smelled it once, wasn’t sure. Went to another store then headed home, all the while smelling the paper it was on. Ended up caving and bought the rollerball. I didn’t think I needed it until I did.
I soo love your aesthetic ! Most tubers 3 to 5 minutes in I'm bored and I'm like nope next channel 😅. But you are interesting engaging and informed. Luv Love LoooooVe it ! Right now I'm going down a rabbit hole trying to find out why the 'Biossance Sunscreen' was discontinued 😢 so bummed but im about to order & try some others. Thnx for your honesty & insightful reviews. ❤
❤❤ your videos are always so relaxing and pleasant to watch. It's your voice! Love it!! So I didn't read all the comments so apologies if anyone else mentioned this, but there are filters you can put on your shower head that remove the bad stuff from the water. I have no idea about pricing, but just thought I'd mention it ❤
I know it's not fancy, but have you tried Lipton Immune Support Diet Green Tea (Pineapple/Mango). They come already made in 16 oz bottles packs. They have vitamin C and zinc. They have all kinds of flavors. I'm just really stuck on the Pineapple Mango flavor! It's really refreshing and very light colored so no staining to my teeth!!!
I really like Pravana as a dupe for olaplex at least price wise. It’s maybe half the price. I used it on my hair to keep it up white and didn’t feel drying like other cheap products. I would love to hear ur experience with it if u ever try it.
Hey hey! I’m in LOVE with your nails all the time. Are those press-on ones? It would be cool to hear about it more ;) in a video or just to be mentioned of if these “stuff I love” videos ❤
Hi Love love your videos! I learn a lot from your videos They are Great! Could you please share which lipstick you are wearing in this video Beautiful red Thank you looking forward to next video 🙏🏻❤️
Waaaaait! They have the shoes in black & white? Black tops with white soles??! Where? I clicked the link and see the gray ones but not black. Help!? I need a pair like yesterday.
Hi! I love that you share all the products you use and great tips but sometimes I am in a rush and just want the great information without all the other talk. I would love it if you can do some videos with just great information and then on other videos share stories so when I have time I can listen to them and enjoy learning about you too!!! I hope you take this as a suggestions, I just want to get all your info and sometimes you talk so much in between I can’t stay … can you do some …that’s say “just great products and tips”…. Stories to follow( and I can listen to those when I can!! That would be so great, I hope you can do that…that way if I want to know something like “how to put on a glow, story on next video “before work I can watch the info and when I get home at nite while I am relaxing I can watch your story ! Thank you so much, you are beautiful!! Xo

I've been in the market for a good pair of walking shoes, I'll have to check these out! Glad you enjoyed your trip!!
Welcome home! Can't wait!💋💚
I was literally about to comment asking how Japan was! Glad you had a good time. A lot of people are traveling there lately.
Yay! So happy you’re back, missed you last week. Glad you had a great time in Japan!
Wanted to let you know, First Aid Beauty just came out with a new mineral sunscreen…. Thought you might want to check it out :)
Welcome back from 🇯🇵!
Would love to hear about the trip; I could go on endlessly about the times I’ve been - it’s just that interesting a place.
I love you and your style - so straight to the point. I would absolutely love to see a “things i use everyday but don’t talk about” video
“The dermatologist not the producer” lmaooooo thanks for the clarification 😂
lol totally looking for this comment :P
I've been drinking tea for many years! Jasmine is wonderful. I highly recommend a Dragon Pearl Jasmine. Harney has a good one.
I watched a long ad about killing mosquitoes because it was actually interesting...hope you get paid good for the ad cause it's longer 😂(no idea how that works )
😂😂😂😂 Dude honestly....fuq mosquitoes for real tho
@Alexandra Anele seriously ! This guy created something to kill more mosquitos in the area because he gets bad reactions from them. We need more of that. They're absolutely useless and spread disease.
I expected the mosquito ad in the actual video and at the end I was like … oh ok nvmd 😂
@Hearts Love right ? I thought very neat but they didn't advertise their name well enough where as most ads only focus on their name 😂
@lula hahah whoops😂 nope just a random ad on her video.

That lipstick is pure fire 🔥
When I don't know what to watch, I turn here. You're always such a vibe and keep my spirits right
That red lip is everything! Gorgeous.

hello Alexandra, I'm miss tea, so I love jasmine tea, excellent. Thanks for sharing and have a great day.🫖🫖🫖

I started drinking Jasmine tea years ago. The first time I drank it was in China town (San Francisco). I just love it.😊
SO delicious 😩
I live in Texas and the hard water here is ridiculous 😭 I purchased a filter for my shower head and I really think its been helping! My hair used to get so dry and flakey. I recommend looking into it!
she has one! she talked about it in one of her other product favs video!!
Filters don't remove most minerals tho. If you test the tds even with a filter it's still crazy high. (I also live in Texas) I bought a softener specifically for my shower that actually makes a difference for hard water. I use both the softener and a filter.
You might want to try k-beauty essence mists. I use them for the same purpose you mentioned the avene mist but they add more calming and hydrating ingredients. I’d look into missha for example.
Jasmine tea is the bomb. Thanks for the tea recommendation.
What is the lip colour (and brand!) please. It's so beautiful
Same question here, that red is stunning 🤩
Same question 🙋🏻♀️ here? Must have that lip color ❤please!?
Girl I live on a ranch in the middle of Colorado and we are on well water. We have a ton of rust in our water. Have you tried a shower head filter? You just screw it on your shower head and it helps pull the heavy minerals out of your water.
Omg you just made me realize why I like the tazo green tea so much, it’s the jasmine! I knew it had a mint like taste!
Thank you for continuing to be hilarious! 👍🏽
Would you consider doing a video review on *all* of your Skims purchases?
Alex, if you're ever around an 85 Degrees bakery PLEASE try the iced sea salt jasmine green tea. It is to die for!
I don’t know why, but the fact that you thought everything was called “cloud” something was hilarious. And what’s funny, is that the items totally gave cloud vibes!
I’ve had my blissfeel lululemon sneakers for about a year now and I’m obsessed.

I’ve never spent over $100 on running shoes and it’s so worth the splurge.
Why am I now very conscious of my neck not being moisturised! 🙃😂
lol
The neck is super important tho! 🙏🙏
Pleeez more. I wanna know your Amazon orders, your grocery purchases, and anything else you could possibly share- not even related to makeup. 😅
So late to this video and the comments, but that jacket and tiny tote are legit. What great finds! I adore my Madewell oversized trucker denim jacket
the Burt's Bees overnight intensive lip balm/cream is FANTASTIC. Ive gone through like 6 jars now. it's the only lip balm that actually fucking works.

Hi ! Do you think you could make a video about powders ? Pressed, setting, translucent they’re all so confusing and I have no idea how it works, when to use what and if I even need to? I trust your input
The Kerastase Blond Absolu Ultra Violet mask is also life changing. And makes my hair sooooo soft.
You should get a filtered shower head! I've changed the shower head at all of my apartments. The one they provide is never up to my standard lol
Natasha Oh-Say-Ann
That’s how you say it.
Also, your pronunciation of Eau de Parfum was perfect!
I agree Alex, about the strap on the bag, its like a car seatbelt 😂, but the bag IS cute. Love your 'stuff' videos X
XMONDO Supernova is so good for blonde hair. It can literally turn yellow hair white instantly!
Love the way you aggressively say things are cute 🖤
Jasmine tea ice cream... It's a must try if you can get it. 👀
Hold on. Jasmine tea ice cream exists?! Where can I get it? 😍
👀 ❤
My FAVORITE lip product is Palmer's cocoa butter swivel stick. I live in the desert so I need major moisturizing products. This is the only "chapstick" that really works in my opinion. Plus you can use it for you cuticles or really anything else that's a little dry.
IGK Mixed Feelings Purple Toning Drops is what I've been using for years. You can use wet or dry with the products you already use. Perfection.
That perfume that you have. I bought the men's version for myself. Lordy!!! 👌👌👌
Great video ty :)
Hey I would so love to see your makeup organisation/storage situation like how do you keep your stuff tidy but accessible? My stuff is just in baskets all over the place and in various makeup bags and it feels so disorganised lol
Just so happy to see you♡ and hear everything you have to say♡
We missed you, and also mom says hi♡ &sends love♡
Have a wonderful week and i hope you had a great vacation time ♡
Your lipstick colour is AMAZING❤ What is the brand name and "number"? Thank you, Alex😊
Thank you Alex! Could you please link or name the tumbler you used for the jasmine tea in this video 🌸
I was today years old when I realised your logo in the bottom right corner was Alex&dra. Perfect!! ❤❤
Glad you're back! Love Avene too - the face mist is one of the few things I've subscribed to on Amazon for years. Hope they reach out they are so low key.
The Oribe purple shampoo is amazing... Give it a try if you already haven't! It's pricey but it's so concentrated that you don't need much.. With your short hair it would probably last you a year! lol
I have the Big Sigma switch. It can also be used for wet washing your makeup brushes and that cleans the pad at the same time!!! Love it!
For your perfume while travelling, just get one of those decanting spray bottles or whatever it's called...Travalo I think 🤔
Loved this so much please make it a series 🥰
Very serious question: How do you keep your clothes so white? Dry Cleaner? Thanks :)
Hey pretty lady! I knew a woman who wanted keep her hair a similar color to you, she would but filtered, super pure water in jugs! And only wash her hair with that water! It was always a beautiful tone! Maybe try that for while see if there's any difference!!!
❤ Ur videos

Soy litter! Yes! Seems like it’s so much better for the kitties too because it’s not toxic if they ingest a little bit. Do they sell it in the US?
Feel the same way about mists, but Caudalie's Grape Water has polyphenols from their vinyard and a wee bit of jojoba and I awesome. Their whole vino line is lovely but the Grape Water is really refreshing and cool. I sometimes mist it over my setting powder to get the bare skin finish I get from setting spray.
Me too!
What lip color are you wearing in this video? It’s absolutely stunning on you!
Is the Sigma Switch ok to use with natural bristle brushes?
the mini puffer tote reminds me so much of a lunch bag 😂 it’s cute tho
Hey Alex!! Love this type of content. What is that your lip?? That’s such a beautiful red. 😍
Hi Alex!!! Welcome back. ❤ I ordered the Plush Ritual bundle with the two newish colors because I was so intrigued by how much you love it. I’m also loving Karla Cosmetics shadow potion. It’s such a gorgeous multichrome paint.
Hope you love them! Somehow I've never tried Karla Cosmetics, I'm adding this to my list!

You will not be disappointed with Plush Ritual!! It’s so good
@@spicychaigirl Thank you! I’m so excited!
Also love jasmine tea!
the sigma switch i love too!!
I looked at 2 of your jewelry videos and I didn’t see where these earrings are from. Love them and can’t seem to find this exact shape anywhere 😭 Would love to know where you got them!

Avene has some great face creams as well, and the best cold cream. They make you smell like a French old lady but why not
What lip colour are you wearing in this? Looks stunning! The perfect red 😍
I thought she said she gave a cologne to one of her BOYFRIENDS and couldn’t remember which one - as in which boyfriend 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂
That is the cutest bag in the whole world ever. 😍
I love that metal cup! Does anyone know where I can get one like it please??
Hey Alex have you tried Nuxe reve de miel lip balm? (French product) It gives me what the auric one gives you and it is less pricey
As a new viewer I am loving your videos and I think you are awesome.
Literally just went to Auric and bought the lip stuff right now. ❤🎉
Is the Plum Auric real dark? Thanks
You can get a shower filter, it does wonders for skin and hair
❤❤ your videos are always so relaxing and pleasant to watch. It's your voice! Love it!! So I didn't read all the comments so apologies if anyone else mentioned this, but there are filters you can put on your shower head that remove the bad stuff from the water.

Great video! One question…What is the super thick neck cream you use?
Sio Beauty Cyro Body Cream
I just got a chance to watch your latest video, love the fresh take you always bring. Thank you!
I know it's not fancy, but have you tried Lipton Immune Support Diet Green Tea (Pineapple/Mango). They come already made in 16 oz bottles packs. They have vitamin C and zinc. They have all kinds of flavors. I'm just really stuck on the Pineapple Mango flavor! It's really refreshing and very light colored so no staining to my teeth!!!
Alex you already influenced me to cut out most added sugar and now I want to try this Decaf coffee 😭 the life changes
Can you post what toner formula you use on your hair and what the salon does. Love it
What is the lipstick you have on? It’s beautiful!
Or is it your beauty that makes it so lovely 😉
Was the blue shampoo and conditioner called Davynes? I actually like the scent
I really like Pravana as a dupe for olaplex at least price wise. It’s maybe half the price. I used it on my hair to keep it up white and didn’t feel drying like other cheap products. I would love to hear ur experience with it if u ever try it.
