HI! My name is Kristi! Welcome to my channel!
First off, I am not your average UA-cam Beauty Vlogger. I do the typical Product Reviews, Makeup Tutorials, Lifestyle Vlogs and SO much more, all with a sense of humor and a bit of a potty mouth. You can ALWAYS be assured that i am giving my full and HONEST opinion. SUBSCRIBE & Join in on the fun!

I know you started off as a makeup channel. But I love your homestead videos, your life updates, putting health first, etc.
💚💚💚
Me too, way more than makeup tutorials
Yes! I got caught up in the makeup. I ended up staying for the person. ❤
We love an evolving Kristi ❤
She's growing up with us, we were all young gals who loved getting dolled up, but we are all reaching other phases of our lives and discovering different needs, I feel like Kristi mirrors that.
Lifting weights changed my body image. I don't care what I look like. I'm now excited and proud to lift heavier. For me it was finding pride in my goals... and for me there was no pride in being skinny. But being a bad ass bitch who lifts, very proud
I love this!
@@SamanthaMiss85same girl!!!
Lifting weights did the EXACT same thing for me!
Yes I'm all about the strength that I've gained!
SAME! Weight training and focusing solely on getting stronger has changed my life. Sydney Cummings on UA-cam has great videos. I started with her years ago and have never stopped. She focuses on getting stronger mentally and physically. Truly a game changer.
just wanna say really that since you made the video about making changes to come into a more positive attitude, it seems as if there’s more relaxation and joy in your content, especially less stress/overthinking about whether the quality of what you’re posting is good (and it is good!!) that’s been encouraging you to post more often. Just wanna say it’s really appreciated and I love seeing all the new content!
I appreciate that! Thank you for being here! And for the sweet comment 💚💚💚
Whew, a 7 minute ad in a 17 minute video is a lot 😅🫠But I'm glad if it's working for you and I'm glad to hear about your wellness journey! Keep it up! Your middle aged and elderly selves will especially thank you for it!
Yeah I thought it was a genuine video and then I realized she just needed a reason to do an ad lol
I love your honesty, and your reviews, but I was not mentally prepared for an almost 20 minute ad - I am glad it’s working for you though!
I like Kristy but this video is one big ad like… I know she’s getting that bag but she couldn’t have been more transparent or have been doing makeup while she talked or something????
This is something that is important to Kristy and she wants to share, thats all. ❤❤❤
This is amazing. Just keep in mind that this isn't a sprint, it is a marathon & give yourself space to succeed! Good luck.
First off we have the identical body shape. Gain in our tummy no butt lol, skinny legs etc. In February I found out I was a type 2 diabetic and my cholesterol and triglycerides were super high. My dad died from a heart attack at only 49 which is only 3yrs older than what I am rn so I inherited bad cardiac genes. So I immediately stopped eating sugar, went low carb, no red meat and low cholesterol diet. I have a chronic pain condition so I can’t exercise. I’ve lost 22 lbs since then and my 3 month follow up labs all came back a lot lower. I am so happy. Sending weight loss love. You can do it❤
Do you mind me asking how low your carbs are? I'm in the same boat but Keto isn't an option. I'm struggling to find what level if carbs is good. Do you eat fruit and sweet potatoes or do you stick to just protein and veg?
I was prediabetic with very high cholesterol, fibromyalgia, osteoarthritis, osteopenia & decided to cut out all sugar, red meat & dairy. Figured out real quick that it was all too much & added red meat & dairy back but eat both sparingly. I also forced myself, despite the pain, the exercise every day. I started with stretching, tai chi, & then forcing myself to walk five minutes a day. I eventually worked up to walking for about an hour a day. I've lost 45 lbs in 9 mos & all my levels have gone way down. I'm no longer at risk! 😭🥲
@@daradarabobaraif you read my reply, I have done similar & lost 45 lbs in 9 mos by cutting out all sugar (including fruit), & only eating red meat & dairy sparingly. I also avoid pasta & if I eat bread I eat whole grain. I eat mostly veg, chicken, some fish, & cutting sugar completely was one of the single hardest things I've ever done. I also forced myself to start drinking more water, which has always been hard for me!
@blendofdays wow congratulations! That's awesome! Thanks for the info!
There is no connection of red meat and heart disease. Just wanted to put it out there, it was a myth that’s been debunked. So don’t deprive yourself if you like red meat, because 100% grass fed meat can actually be really nourishing!
Your 2013 hair was absolutely incredible
So much work to keep the colors from fading!! Eventually it just gets to be too much 😂
@@RawBeautyKristiYou looked like such a youngin! ❤😂
Overnight oats for life!! They’re my fave breakfast, I go to bed looking forward to my oats the next morning. Don’t add too much liquid so they still retain a cookie-dough like consistency which is so pleasant to eat (instead of sad watery oats, ain’t nobody got time for that). You can customize them with protein powder, Greek yogurt, fruits, dark chocolate chips, nuts, etc! My current obsession is adding a vegan lemon curd and strawberries for strawberry lemonade oats. Tastes like summer!!
Is there a specific recipe you recommend?? I’ve been wanting to make overnight oats!!
I was gonna say overnight oats and also chia pudding are really nice breakfasts! Totally GF :)
Oats can be very problematic for people with gluten sensitivities because it's so easily contaminated with . An option that might work well and even better if you have an instant pot is congee it's a rice porridge. Basically take a handful of rice and about 2+ cups water eyeballed because exacts don't matter. It works better savory and is a great way to use up leftovers.
I basically get it set tually p to cook and let it run while I shower on medium pressure for 15 minutes. Homemade chicken soup is actually a great base for congee, but really anything goes.
I’ve made pumpkin pie overnight oats 🤤 no eggs, no sugar in the oats, just the puréed pumpkin but with a lot less than actual pie filling of course, I didn’t use any cream, just oat milk, and then all the spices give it a sweeter taste so you don’t need to add much to it. I had a tsp of maple syrup in a serving. It’s super filling so I find that I actually eat a lot less calories with it than standard overnight oats. Bonus points if you toss them in ramekins and brown them in the oven in the morning.
As a fellow hypochondriac - do not concern yourself with the Banza pasta!! I saw the same video, but I’ve also seen so many debunking those claims. I hate the fear mongering that happens on tik tok around food.
This!! Food fear used to cripple me!
“Live on vibes, eat pizza sometimes.” New merch? 😂
💯 I'd buy it!!!
@@lvlysticgirlsame! 😊
I'm a 35 year old single mum of 2, I spent years torturing myself and wanting to be thin. Now I truly don't care!!! I have arthritis and degenerative spine injury so I'm in pain 24/7. Now I simply want to walk my kids to school. Be able to play with them. It's funny how we change what we consider good health when we get older.
Yes health is everything especially as we age! I am right there with you, my priorities have shifted completely, from looks to health and family!! You’re doing amazing 💕💕💕💕💕💕
I agree I'm 48 and my arthritis is so bad I just want a day pain free,dgaf what I look like 🤦
I am 58 going on 10. 😂 and I have Psoriatic Arthritis from untreated Psoriasis. Nothing worked until we found out you can get shots for it to control my plaque psoriasis. It all cleared up. Then I got sick due to a bad sinus from hell. I wish you a great weekend.
Eating only meat will cure every health problem out there in 30 to 90 days! Look up carnivore on UA-cam! I’m PROOF and so are 1,000 of others.
I have lupus and it’s caused so many issues. Pain is such a bitch. Hydration is super important.
Just popping in to say that banza pasta study was not peer reviewed and was conducted by moms across America, who are famously anti-science and not at all reliable or trustworthy. Lots of science based creators have come out and said this study was garbage.
Congrats! Taking care of yourself is one of the best things to do for our children.
Health is wealth. Something happened to me during the pandemic where i stop focusing so much on outward appearance and became more greatful about my health. Excercise has helped so much for my anxiety
I use to be 242 at my highest 2 years ago. I’ve lost over 40lbs. So proud of you! 💕
WOW congrats to you!!
I wish you all the luck on your fitness journey. As a chronically ill person I can relate to not feeling well every single day. However I’m glad you have this service to help you. I cannot afford it.
But for those that can. All the more power to you.
Hey Kristi!! I've watched you for a long time! My daughter and your son are a month apart so I've gone through a lot of the same things as you! I'm so glad that you didn't become a family vlogger after having him. I love how relatable you are now and I'm so glad you've been posting more often. I love your videos!
Thank you so much!! I’m glad you are enjoying the recent content, I think a lot of people expected family vlogs and were disappointed when I didn’t post any. I appreciate this comment so much!!🙏🏻🙏🏻
No torturing just one step at a time towards a healthy life, healthy body, healthy mind, healthy spirit. One step at a time, always work on continually growing and improving to make yourself the healthiest version of you you WANT be.
Laying in bed recovering from surgery and Dad posts! Damn near ripped a stitch going for the remote.
I hope your surgery was successful 🙏🏻🙏🏻and I wish you well in your recovery!!💚
@RawBeautyKristi Thanks love! It was! PCOS keeps trying to destroy my ovaries but I won't let her!
My mantra is “consistency is key” you got this!!!
Get that bag but 10 mins of spon 😭
Yeah why isnt this tagged/titled as AD???
@@ema2031the video has the paid partnership label, is listed in the top of the description, is verbally stated, and is listed at the very bottom of the description as well. I have 4 disclosures :)
@@ema2031she stated like the second sentence that it was sponsored. Still a long ad, feels like an infomercial a couple times. Mobility is medicine tho, happy for Kristi!
@@RawBeautyKristiI dont see any label (maybe because im in Europe?) and I can only see the sponsor word once I open the longer description. No #AD in the video title.
@@ema2031I believe that if you’re in the US, you’re not required to put #Ad in the title.
Thanks for the upload, Kristi!
Kristi, just 10 minutes on a mini trampoline is more effective than 30 minutes of running. This is NASA research-backed. It helps drain the lymphatic system, improves cardiovascular health, tones, promotes weight loss and increases energy levels. There are SO many benefits and it's FUN! There are lots of videos on UA-cam, even beginner workouts. You want to make sure you're getting enough protein. For easy, protein-packed breakfasts, make smoothies. My favorite creation is a peanut butter and jelly smoothie. I use vanilla whey protein powder, peanut butter powder, unsweetened vanilla almond milk or coconut milk and frozen blueberries. It is even better than a milkshake to me.There are so many combinations you can create. 😘
LOVE my rebounder. I had a torn ACL that desperately needed surgery and I was scheduled for one and then the Covid lockdowns happened. No more going to the gym. Long walks were out of the question and so was running (it would just make my leg throb from hip to ankle). I was crawling in my skin looking for some way to burn off that extra energy and keep my fitness up, not wanting to go into surgery weaker. I was very skeptical when a rebounder was recommended to me. It seemed like the exact opposite of anything I should be doing but it was explained to me that even just gentle bouncing without my feet leaving the mat would be beneficial and it would be good for stability and would get my heart going. I got one and was shook just how much it got my heart rate up and how little I could even do at first (it’s just bouncing on a small trampoline, right?!) but also, how GREAT it felt. It made me grin like an idiot and I felt great for the rest of the day. Even with a bum knee I was able to work up to doing an hour long session nearly every day and the time just zipped by. That and resistance bands kept my fitness up during the never ending lockdowns, kept my leg strong and got me through that surgery and recovery with flying colours and I still use them both religiously all these years later. Also, the kids love it, the hubby loves it …. I just hop on it for 5 or 10 min at a time all through the day. By the end of the day, I’ve gotten a lot of good quality exercise in. And it’s so FUN !! I’ll never be without one. I kinda can’t believe fitness influencers are sleeping on them. I know a lot of athletes use them but no one ever seems to talk about them. They’re fantastic tools in the kit.
@@northwoodfalls1403 I love this! 👍😊
Rebounder for life!!🎉🎉
Yes! So here for this! ❤
I've gone gluten free this year as well and am on my fitness journey -- I've been having greek yogurt pretty much every morning for breakfast, as well as kiwi or fruit of that sort. The greek yogurt has as lot of protien which will help you feel a bit fuller and help with the workouts as well. Thanks for sharing your journey with us ... there are a lot of parallels going on in my life alongside you (fitness, gluten free, pmdd ... it's wild)
Lots of love from Canada! X
Yay! Early and I’m watching this at the gym. 🔥👏🏻 love you!!!
I absolutely LOVE LMNT, so good!
just got home from work perfect timing!!! loving all the new RBK content!!!!
Good luck on your journey. I love your outlook on health and the program! Trying to do it at your time, pace, ect.
You GOT This Kristie!!! ❤
I have been following you so long and our lives have taken parallel paths, down to cluster head aches, pmdd, pcos and keto.
Recently I've done a elimination diet starting with JUST beef (and electrolytes). I've realized my migraines/ice pick head aches are caused by tyramine containing foods. I had a constant low grade headache for years. I could never narrow it down. Turns out so many foods contain tyramine and it can take 24-48 hours to trigger after I eat it. No wonder I never knew.
I know the pain of trying to figure it out for years and wanting to give up. You are such an inspiration for me and that you kept going. Kept living your life.
Just stopping to say you look spectacular in this video. Your haircut is perfect and you have glowy skin and sparkly eyes. ❤
Oh thank you! You’re too sweet !! 💚💚
I love Trainwell. I used it as co-pilot and it keeps improving. It is so helpful for me.
Totally agree! It helps me stay much more consistent with my workouts! 💚💚
Love your honesty!!!
Thank you for being so open about your health struggles and not being apologetic about sharing. So often I feel like people think I’m making up excuses when I talk about mine, but like having multiple co-morbidities is sooooo much more common than is talked about in public. ❤❤❤
Proud of you Mumma, you got this!!!
I love any content y'all share! 🤠
I love you so much, you’re the friend I wish I had irl.
I had PMDD, ovarian cysts and Endo. I finally got to the point I had one good week a month. I finally had a complete hysterectomy at 34. Hands down the best thing that I ever did. I had no idea how debilitating it was until post surgery. It was a whole new life. It has been 17 years since my surgery and I have never regretted it.
Thank you for being so open with us Kristi! Cheering you on!! ❤️👏🏼
So happy to hear that you are taking such good care of yourself. We all want a happy, healthy Kristi!!!
I’m really excited to watch this and hear your mindset. I’ve always loved hearing your opinions, especially lately with how “real” your content is! (It’s always been real, but I guess relatable as a mom just trying to be happy 😂) I’ve been struggling so much with body image and I just wanna work towards my goals without self loathing. But I KNOW I need to step it up.
Love your videos ❤
💜 u Kristi! Keep on keeping on! ( I’m right there with ya)
your haircut is just made for you! you look retro cool and i love it!
I just have to thank you so much, Kristi. You have helped me more than you will ever know when it comes to body image. I must take steroids daily (to stay alive), and struggle with chronic pain like you do. My body has changed dramatically, especially weight in my tummy area. I literally stopped allowing anyone to take pictures of me (so hard to admit this), and I have five beautiful grandchildren, who deserve to have pictures of me! Your videos matter, and they have been so important to my life!
I am rooting for you girly!! And jumpin on board with ya !! Im gonna start tomorrow movin my body more! I never stop moving but need to do specific exercise and stretching amd watching ypur video was just thay extra little boost of motivation i needed to start tomorrow ! Its bed time right now is why I saw tomorrow for anyone wondering lol Thanks so much for sharing and I'm rooting for you!!🙏💕
Oh RBK! When Zak came in and hugged you, when you flashed your tummy and rubbed it all over.....those little things make me feel like you're my real sister 😁. I'm just a long time follower, seen many changes in lots of different ways, watched you struggle (and that's the lite term) with severe mental health issues and listen to you be so incredibly honest about treatment and progress. Today's video? IMO you have a peace about you. Goals to met, things to start, promises to make, yes, certainly. BUT, there is this peace about you and it's fucking wonderful. ♥️ I've balled my eyes out over the past few years whilst watching and listening to you. Your vulnerability has helped me. But today? Hip hip hooray🎉🎉 You gave a beautiful presence about you. And really nice bangs! Can't wait till your next post and the next make-up sesh. Love you to bits! 😊
You go girl!!!
Dude, I love this energy, love this message. I think sometimes we get caught up in change having no to be hard and come with immediate “results”.
I’ve been doing my own thing this year, cruising along making gentle changes and seeing positive outcomes, slow and steady baby! It’s the most consistent I’ve been in my whole life, I hope more of us can really just find the time to vibe and build kind habits for ourselves 🙌🏼
Keep it up! The more you stick with it, the more consistent you’ll become!
Train sounds cool! Thank you
Putting your face in the O of LOL in the beginning was priceless thank you
🤣🤣
You always come back around when I need you! I’m also on a fitness journey and I love how you’re going about it!
The thing that helped me get into exercise was my VR headset. I started doing boxing games every day, and I enjoyed it so much. It eventually led me to start lifting weights and doing other activities.
I started watching you during the pandemic for something “fun,” and I am now fully invested in your journey! We are all at different points of the same road! Perimenopause has made me rageful, immediately followed by bursting into tears. Thanks for sharing with the rest of us! One baby step at a time! ✌🏼😊
Love that you work out barefoot in the grass! Not only are you getting a workout in but grounding yourself in nature at the same time-even better! Proud of you for showing up for yourself ❣️ Also, breakfast is just when you “break fast” you can eat whatever you want! Doesn’t have to be the “typical” breakfast foods ☺️
Huge fan you are so inspiring ❤
My favorite breakfast is gouda cheese and pistachios. Incredible flavor combo, good nutrition. Highly recommend.
That does sound yummy!! 💚💚
Any food can be breakfast food if you eat it for breakfast 😉
YAY!! She's my trainer too for over a year. I love her!
GIRL SAAAAAAME! I started using trainwell/copilot 9 months ago and have never been so consistent before EVER.
I think there's a difference between not caring what you look like and not taking care of yourself.
I am so proud of you 👏🏼. I started with the same goal to just feel better and not for the physic but that just comes as a bonus and I feel like it's so much healthier mentally.
Oh my god. Seeing you in 2013 was crazy, so much change. And all for the better in the end i hope ❤
I love that you are finding time to workout. My son is 13 and I only recently started working out consistenly and I've loved it so, so much. It works wonders for my energy and overall well being (looks were not my priority either)... While kids are young it's hard, but it sure does get easier!! Keep it up!
I have NEVER been this early 🙏🏾💕
I have been here since your beauty focused days and watching your channel evolve into lifestyle and still some beauty has been beautiful. I loved this because I also just started with trainwell and I am so happy with it! I’ve struggled with my weight and consistent exercising for years - this app has given me that motivation back ❤ proud of you too!
Your hair looks so good!! I love it!! The shape and texture looks amazing and is so flattering with your already lovely features.
I have never identified with an intro more. I became a first time mom a little ahead of you and during the pandemic - away from people. I finally addressed my outward body issue concerns; it’s the healthiest relationship I’ve even had with my body, but likewise - it made me stop making the best decisions for my body. Love this series. Thank you!
Yes girl! I love this journey for you! Remember sustainable change happens slowly so keep going and one day you’ll wake up and realize that you did your outdoor chores way easier than before! You got this!
You and Zac are THE cutest ❤❤
I absolutely love your raw and honest videos!! I know so many of us moms/humans have the same struggles and I really appreciate this video. Thank you!
I LOVE this style of video so much. I just feel like I’m chatting with my bestie and just hanging out. I am SUPER proud of you for putting in the work for not only yourself but your family. The better you are the better they are because they get your BEST version. I’m on a journey myself! We are the same age and I’m starting to feel creaky too lol. Keep being amazing, lovely! Can’t wait for your next update ❤
I'm with you, Kristi! I've been here for over 8 years and I adore you! I accepted my weight gain and was happy about feeling okay for once, however I don't love how i have trouble doing things. I started 5 days ago and have lost 4lbs eating healthier! I'm so excited you've been able to make more videos and I'm excited for your journey ❤
i do 2 times a week bodyweight and 1 time a week going to the gym for cardio and heavier lifts. and i rlly love it. it makes me stronger
I started walking an hour every day and try to get 10,000 steps a day. I've lost 20 lbs since March. It's hard to set aside an hour. I am active in the gardens too. I dont like to be strict with diet but I'm eating way better.
Amazing! What an accomplishment! 💚💚
I love these videos. They’re real. I don’t really wear much makeup these days and though I go to the gym I am not a bodybuilder. Need that real balance now that I’m in my mid thirties! So thank you.
Love LMNT!!!
I love you so much 💕
What a down to earth, honestly update. This was the breath of fresh air that I needed today...and now, I feel like going outside and moving my body. ❤️
My boyfriend introduced me to cornmeal pancakes for breakfast…soooo good! I think you put a small amount of flour in but it would be easy to sub a gluten free flour!
Great idea!! I’ll see if I can find a recipe for a gluten free version
Thanks for sharing about finding glyphosate in food- I didn't know about this and will change my diet a little to avoid it
Progression over perfection!
I so hope I get to that point of not caring what other people think. It’s absolutely crushing.
Plllllssss keep making this kind of content. It makes me feel not so crazy about the things I’ve been going through as a 37 yo lady. You’re the best! ❤❤
Watching this while working out 100% for my mental health! Getting back into it after a hiatus so I am right with you.
And speaking of gluten free, etc, when I did Whole 30 I had the HARDEST time with breakfast too! All other meals and snacks were absolutely fine, but breakfast was so hard and I was eating eggs so I feel for you!
You could also have the same kinds of foods that you eat for lunch and dinner, but have that for breakfast. Just because it’s breakfast, it doesn’t mean you have to eat specific “breakfast foods.” Food is food - energy is energy.
Kristi, dunno if you’ll see this but I can’t express my appreciation for your openness and honesty about your mental health. I have BPD which also comes with explosive, violent rage (among many other horrible symptoms). I’ve been on an antidepressant for several years now and it has been an absolute life saver. Thank you
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 for making me feel less alone. I am so sorry you’re going through that but I’m very grateful you have something that helps!
I am up here in Norway cheering you on woman !!!🌸🩷✨
Do you need to eat breakfast for breakfast? I don't love breakfast food, so just eat what I would eat for dinner or lunch.
thank you for sharing your pmdd experiences cause its helped me feel less crazy dealing with mine. people that dont have it do not understand the daily struggles
You look Happy and Healthy. Those are achievements! I’m proud that you figured that out at your young age. Congratulations Kristi❤️
I’m struggling with my weight tooo
Your honestly really helps me out !
💚💚💚
I don’t care there was an ad, I love seeing you thrive ❤ (seeing many people being bothered by it)
Proud of you Kristi!!! Take each day as it comes. If you miss a day, that is fine. It is what it is. Get back on track and keep moving forward. Not only does your family need you - but we need you! You are a light to so many of us. Keep up the amazing work and keep us updated on your journey. We are all cheering for you!
I loveee a tuna sandwich for a good protein snack and morning smoothies with collagen added in! you cant taste it and you can easily hit the 40 grams of protein in the AM which helps regulate your blood sugar throughout the entire day (:
Love this. Have you tried those somatic exercises? I’m going to and will let you know if it helps. I’m like the same mental space as you. I really enjoy all your videos. You seem happy and that is good. I’m stoked for you!! Keep going!
First comment!!!!!!! I don't know what to say. Too much pressure
