One room at a time is right sis Benji looks so cute in your arms….thank you for sharing and yes I agree with you about the doctors appointment she didn’t seem concerned that’s a must so no you wasn’t tripping sis 🥰🥰🥰 love your long vlogs
Hi Crystal, my favorite part of the vlog today is seeing Benji getting excited, seeing you putting things together in your apartment, listening to you tell us what’s going on with you, watching you do your skin care and your beautiful braids done. I really love watching your videos to be honest. 😍❤️😍❤️😍
Hi Crystal. For glass cabinet doors try using plate/bowl display stands. Amazon sells them. You can put one plate on the stand and have the rest lying flat. I also saw someone place very small artificial plants in pots in the cabinet and it was gorgeous! She has one in each cabinet. It was different and aesthetically pleasing to the eye.
Hi Crystal 😊been following you for a minute. Love your videos, you’re a beautiful young lady. Love seeing young black women thrive Benj is so cute. I love Alexa,highly recommend . Keep humble and true to yourself 😊
Honestly, one thing it took a minute for me to realize when I moved into my new home was that I could adjust the shelf height to make it fit what I had on each shelf 😊so don't forget that option sis cuz I like the flow of what you have in the cabinet space and you actually made the change i was gonna suggest by moving the plates around. Just a thought
New viewer and Dallas resident… welcome to Dallas. I’m enjoying your content. I just went to a dermatologist appt with a black doctor and she didn’t see me long, but she answered all of my questions and provided follow up instructions so no complaints from me, but it was definitely less than a 5min conversation. I used to be a fan of dermalogica, but they do have fragrance in their products. I learned the more money spent on products doesn’t mean the products are good. Glass cabinets show drinking/water glasses and tea/coffee mugs. Different glasses always make things interesting. Your bar area where you would put the cocktail & wine glasses.
I'm in love with the cabinets and flooring in your apartment. The color is so gorgeous!!! I have an alexa. It does everything you said you want. However, the sound for music isn't that great. I think it's a little echo-y!!!! But I'm a bit sensitive to sound, so maybe you wont hear it? Only thing that makes music sound great to me at are my Sony headphones (M series). Anyways, Good thing about alexa is you can try it and return if you don't like it.
Hi Crystal, I went to a dermatologist appointment as well and she barely looked at my skin, but what she recommend really worked for me and my acne at the age of 52 I had hormonal acne and it worked for me. The Doxycycline which is an antibiotic that she gave you it definitely will clean Your skin from the inside to the outside, so please take those pills as recommended because since last February, my skin has been doing very very well as of now I have not had any acne or breakouts so it really works.. I was also given Clindamycin lotion which is a topical antibiotic, and tretinoin. I hope this help.
Thanks for sharing the good and the bad 💕 I know you are very healthy..reducing dairy and meat can drastically reduce skin issues..also because you are traveling more often maybe try using a face mask while flying to make sure your skin is hydrated and not drying out. Your skin is still pretty but I totally understand wanting it clear and glowing. Something that has helped me is I never wear foundation and I only use vegan bronzer or blush and that has kept my skin very healthy. I also shave my face to remove dead skin cells.. it’s worked pretty well 😊
Invest in some Lazy Susans for your spices in the cabinets. I got mine from Amazon at a good price and now all I do is open the cabinets and spin those things until I find the right spices. I even have a vitamin supplement cabinet that also has my first aid things in it, i.e. bandaids, hand sanitizer, etc. and those are also on Lazy Susans. They make the cabinets look so much more organized.
Sis I absolutely love your new penthouse ❤🎉, so now I have a silly question, while you were unpacking your spices, with kind of hot sauce do you use, I want a hot sauce that also tastes great.
You’re so Beautiful Crystal and I love the relationship you have with your father. Dandruff shampoo like Head & Shoulders is safe to use and may help clear up acne for specific skin types including those with fungal acne. I have seen others try it and worked. I hope this helps if you decide to try.❤
Sis, I guess maybe because I'm a fellow crawfish lover with family and friends also from NOLA, but this was my inner monologue while you were putting up your crab boil and other spices in the cabinet: "Tell me you were born and raised in NOLA without telling me."😄
I have Alexa in 3 separate rooms, and I have them synced and named. Can play music on either one, a couple, or all of them with a simple voice command. You just have to configure everything in the app. You can also create a series of events to happen at the same time or in sequence using routines in the app. I also use it to control all my smart devices around the house. Bottom line, my experience using Alexa has been great and you won't regret it. No experience with Google home tho so cannot compare
My doctor prescribed the same medication for my acne, and it worked. She also recommended that I use adapalene at night and wash my face with PanOxyl. Acne gone🔥
I had the same experience and received the same medication…. And I thought it was fungal acne… they gave be the same bag of over the counter stuff…. Then next visit told me to take accutane…. They are all the same…. More or less you had a hormonal breakout and just need to de stress and eat clean… continue skin routine
NY pollution and the black soot up your nose is unforgiving.❤❤❤ Then when you shower and wipe yourself with a wash cloth it’s real dirty… I enjoyed the entire Vlog…❤
The google homes connect to each other. I have 3 of them and I would pretty much have music playing all over my place. You can also get light bulbs that connect to them and it will turn them on and off and adjust the brightness and color.
I would share that Alexa (Amazon Echo Devices) are the way to go. Not only can you play music on one or all of them, the routines you set, can help make life easier too! I even have my largest one (10) in my main living area, and when I'm gone, should something (like my cameras, etc) start my dog barking for too long , there's a routine to play music to calm him back down. I also have them turning on/off my lights thru the Alexa App, which also is handy. GREAT Vlog!
Be aware when Bengi in daycare not getting sick from other dogs! Not everyone takes good care of their fur babies like you do! Like flees and ticks, etc! 🐾🐾✝️❤️ What does the braiding cost??
Crystal, I discovered your page about eight months ago and I'm so glad I did. I'm older and real picky when is comes to my circle of people I connect with on UA-cam or find interesting. I work at a large university in the South with young adults/students and many of them are from all over the United States. I'm not sure what it is about me that connects well with the young, maybe it's the communication, so I'm told. Long story short. You are an exciting and enthusiastic person, that will accomplish many goals. I see a lot of me in you and that's why I follow your page. I also, see you as a little sister, I would love to have. I would love to be your "UA-cam Auntie or Big Sister" If you see me fit.
Just stuff that cutting board on top of those pots you put in the bottom cabinet. I feel cutting boards serve a useful purpose but are not decorative. Just store it away and bring it out when cooking.
Metallic,or Aerosol rash my dear from hair products that's how it looks to me,because anytime trying something new to you leads to a change is the cause,I think you need yogurt,cheeses to get that poison out to prevent dark spots is what,I think
See, this is why I can't be healthy. I'm allergic to kale, spinach, tree nuts, peanuts, and some raw fruits. That whole cleanse would have me in the ER.
I admire your tenacity and your success. But I would suggest in the future you spend that hard earned money and become a homeowner. The money spent on a high rent is just not worth it. I did that for over 20 years and now my mortgage along with my taxes included IS LESS THAN MY RENT WAS FOR LESS SQUARE FOOTAGE. Becoming a homeowner for women is bomb. I know many want to accomplish that with the help of a partner but these days none of that is guaranteed. You need to INVEST INVEST INVEST. You are truly an IT GIRLIE so I wish that for you. There is nothing more satisfying than homeownership and if you decide you no longer want the live in YOUR HOUSE, selling is still a financial asset. Enjoy your penthouse but aspire for a higher financial goal. Overall I'm happy you're happy!
If you go,go you really need to think whether,or not you're a good mother,because you can't go everywhere you're not being paid to go when you're a mother;Sometimes rest is needed only when you're financially able to without it causing a negative effect with your career,you are to do what you're told;If a window opens you should just stay home with your child if it is possible without financial troubles,and if not you need to question your motherhood ,and a new home for , Benji,He is your family, family comes first ,I say this out of love,for your rest,Him,and me too!,because it's been lonely waiting to see your vlogs.
I enjoy your videos. However all the screaming to express yourself is really annoying, it’s just too excessive. The normal volume of your voice is already high, which is great but the screaming takes away from the whole video. Constantly having to adjust the volume on my end makes watching less enjoyable
She's being herself. Mind you, I believe your complaints are exaggerated. But her expressiveness is what makes her relatable and real. I certainly hope she does not change up or "turn down" for the likes of you. Maybe this space isn't for you, and that's okay.

Your beauty comes from within, therefore, you’re beautiful, regardless! 🤍

Welcome to Dallas
I love your content. Can you link the juice cleanse please?

You’re so Beautiful Crystal and I love the relationship you have with your father.

God, grant me the SERENITY to accept the things I can not change, COURAGE to change the things that I can and the WISDOM to know the difference.
Welcome to Dallas Crystal!! Love the braids!! Where did you go?! I'm in Dallas and am always looking for quality braids!!
i was stressed out for you while the travel storytime. i once missed my flight out of JFK because i was heading to LGA smh lol

Benji is so adorable is he a Golden Doodle that is the kind of dog I want I think they are such a good breed
If it's the hair that is not good for you take care of yourself ❤

Hey luv , it could be the color you are spraying in your hair.

No sister you’re not tripping. Some doctors are so non-personal…
Ben!!!!! Lol 🐕
Be aware when Bengi in daycare not getting sick from other dogs! Not everyone takes good care of their fur babies like you do! Like flees and ticks, etc! 🐾🐾✝️❤️
What does the braiding cost??
Try Apple home pods. There’s 2 sizes
$100 from jfk to lga is highway robbery!!! My mama lives 5mins from JFK…could’ve had her drop you off for free 😂🤣

NEW VLOG!! Who dis? 😝
200$ and 6 hours for medium BOHO?! That's a steal. They are
Hey Siri, play Yolanda Adams Be Blessed... because WHAT!?
It could be the colored braid hair because I noticed soon as you started wearing it your breakouts became aggressive
Just move the cabinet down girlie
Crystal… sorry to be the “mommy” but please make sure to wear your seatbelt every time
Would you be open to going on the UA-cam show financial audit? you should look it up. I bet you would be good on their.
NY pollution and the black soot up your nose is unforgiving.❤❤❤
Then when you shower and wipe yourself with a wash cloth it’s real dirty…
This is why I didn't understand the $1k braids.
Boho knotless $700??? Max is $350!!
See, this is why I can't be healthy. I'm allergic to kale, spinach, tree nuts, peanuts, and some raw fruits. That whole cleanse would have me in the ER.
