Long video today! I hope you all have an amazing NYE and be safe... I am so thankful for all of your support this year & if you are new please subscribe!
I LOOVVE this video! All these recommendations are gonna completely destroy my wallet!!!! Thanks for an amazing year of videos! Love yah!! BTW are you still planning on doing a "what I got for Christmas" video?
MsYea98 her lash tech needs to put different lashes on her. But the people she goes to don't get trained properly so they don't know what curls look good with different eye shapes.
I don't mean to say this in a bad way at all. But I haven't watched in a while and she looks different. Did she get fillers in her face? If yes does she have a vlog on it?! xx
Alexandrea Garza lol I def did that as well 😊 and I only even asked because I think your under eye area looks awesome so it must be the new concealer - it makes it look great ! Happy new year !
I love how you stay true to your signature look! Totally learning that I don't have to have every palette to love makeup and appreciate it. 🤔🤔🤔 need to see what my signature look and go to is... thanks Alex! I always learn something from you!
I loved this video! I have money to spend from Christmas and it's so nice to get ideas of the better products instead of spending money on things only to hate them. Thanks for all the great ideas!
So many of my favorite products from 2016 I purchased because of you! I love the Loving Tan self tanner and the Tarte shape tape of course. I discovered your channel in 2016 and I can't wait to see what you have coming up for the new year.
Happy New year Alex and happy birthday tomorrow! I have been a subscriber for almost 2 years and I love your content! You don't do drag queen makeup and are super relatable! Can't wait to see your 2017 videos! Love the vlog channel too!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALEX!! wishing you a year filled with continued success, health & happiness!! I have loved to watch your channel grow and wish you guys nothing but the best 💘
Alex I noticed on your makeup forever highlighter that you had that pesky little oil film (like most powders get over time) & working at Sephora I've learned a tip to fix it without scraping the product or damaging it. All you do is take a piece of double sided sticky tape and push it on and peel it right back off and it takes the oil away but leaves the product. Kind of the same way blotting papers work on the skin! If you try it let me know how it works!!
Laila Torabi ......exactly what I asked! LOL. I love her, but I am definitely a combination of high end and drugstore products. I'd love to see her do a best of drugstore video! There are some amazing products at the drugstore! Happy New Year!
I have now tried soooo many self tanners and I have to say, I too, LOVE. Loving tan! It was the closest if not even better color than when I tanned. I used to be addicted to tanning but being in my late 40's I now stay away from real tanning.
I got the new Tarte Pro Palette and Pro Highlight/Contour Palette and have been loving both. As always, Tarte has come through. Love you guys and Colby!!!!
Happy New Year and Happy Birthday Alex! I've been watching you since you first started UA-cam and you are still my favorite! Hope you have a wonderful 2017!
Happy New year Alex...love watching you and Michael.. my favorite eye paletter of 2016 is Violet Voss holy grail palette is beautiful and good price...
This is my fav best-of 2016! The color choices and brands - love! Especially the CT lipliners & matte lipsticks. Bond girl & Very Victoria are my 2 favs. Her nude lip liner is my all time favorite!!! 💖 Here's wishing you lovely, healthy and prosperous 2017!
Love you Alex! Watch everyone of your videos and have so many items on my wishlist. Just a little trick for your RCMA powder, use one of you old:empty Laura Mercier loose powder containers, or something similar like that it works so good and keeps the mess to a minimum! Happy New Year to you and your Family! 🎉
It's nice to see you use juice beauty. I haven't used typical makeup in so long--it would be really cool to see someone who uses it compare it to natural brands (honest beauty, juice beauty, 100% pure, vapor, lily Lolo, tata Harper). xxxx

Jessica Campbell "natural" doesn't equate better and all are chemicals once put in cosmetic form. A lot of natural products that are bad for you and cause irritation. No such thing as safe makeup even if it claims natural and organic bc anyone can break out or have an allergic reaction from anything at any time. Most natural products simply have natural fragrance and that is just as damaging to your skin. So if this stuff has menthol, peppermint, citrus, lavender, willow vark, camphor, rose etc it is NOT good for your skin and it is irritating and damaging it. Js
TheKillerQueenfan essential oil's sometimes can cause contact dermatitis with certain individuals that are very sensitive however with most people it's not going to cause a reaction. When you have things in your make up such as xenoestrogens, parabens, synthetic fragrances, and other chemical carcinogens, it is not just your skin that you have to worry about. Your skin is literally absorbing all of those chemicals into the bloodstream. Carcinogens and hormone disruptors are both extremely common in health and beauty products so it's actually very important to look for all natural ingredients in products if you're going to use them.
TheKillerQueenfan if you are interested, there is actually an app called think dirty where you can scan your own health and beauty products see the ingredients and how they are rated on a clean scale and see why they are bad for you and what they can do to the body.
I've been watching your channel since you and Michael got engaged and I love all of your videos! You're my favorite youtuber. Happy new year and happy early birthday! 💕
You NEED to try the Chanel le volume mascara if you love volume lift and separation! the absolute best eye product I've ever discovered. Happy New Year and Happy Birthday!!
Loved this video!! I've been watching your channel for a while now and also love you and Michael's vlog channel ☺ Wishing you both a very happy New Year 🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊
The only eyeshadow I was in love with this year is the Makeup by Mario palette by ABH! Oher than that I've been obsessed with lots of lashes and a dewy glow!
Thank you for all your videos this year!!!! You and Michael are my absolute favorite!!! Your tips beauty/lifestyle are always so helpful ! Wishing nothing but a great 2017 for you guys! Xo
Was anyone else really excited to see this video was 20 min long? 😀😂 Love your videos, Alex! I'll have to try some Charlotte Tilbury products this year☺️
Just FYI Hello Hello flawless powder by Benefit has a natural finish not matte. It is my absolute favorite! The finish just makes your skin look so nice!
it is so rare that makeup gurus actually use their make up everytime when they say they love a product it looks almost untouched that always makes me wonder. you really use it and i like it a lot ! probs for you 😁
I bought the loving tan shimmer cream. Put it on my legs waited for it to dry. It dried nicely !! but found the shimmer was all over my clothes later in the night! Do you find this to happen? How can I prevent this!
Happy new year Alex!! Been enjoying all your videos!! Where's your sweater from, looks soo soft! And what's your favorite crease eye color, brand....??? 😉
I totally love this- can you tell me which of your videos has great drug store products? I'm trying to step up my makeup game, but on a budget. Thank you for so many fabulous videos I watch the vlogs every day!!
Thanks for sharing your favorites for the year! Your house is decorated so beautifully, but a little constructive criticism as a loyal subscriber since the beginning - you should make your background set up a little more pretty. I love the candles and the A, but the UA-cam picture and the other picture are kind of hard to see, so it kind of throws off the prettiness! Just an innocent suggestion. Happy New Year!
Can you do a video about your espresso maker? I want to buy one and want to know how you like yours, what model it is, what's all involved in making it, etc. Thanks
My favorites: abh modern and master pallete covet fix illuminating primer dose of colors truffle loreal infallible matte foundation wnw new concealer released a month ago ..its so good Kat Von D countour and abh in that gleam
Happy New Year Alex! I am obsessed with your sweater where is it from???!! also I love how detailed your videos are, i always watch your videos before i buy a product!
Hey Alex! I am trying to figure out which foundation to try as I currently do not have one I love. After watching this and a few more of your videos I am considering any of the Nars and MUFE ones (some of the others you like are a bit out of my budget). I have dry skin like you so thought you might be able to recommend one. I am paler than you, though not porcelain, and have dry flaky skin but also suffer from some blackheads and blemishes that leave red marks for quite a while. I would like a more dewy look than totally matte and prefer medium coverage (or full, I have no problems buying 2 so I have the options). If there is a primer you would recommend too that would be great. Thanks :)
Thank you for this video :) You should try naked 3 eye shadow palett because the colors are gorgeous and when you use fix plus the eye shadow is more pigmented Sorry about my english i'm from France 😊
Hi Alex! Soo Soo Excited to be a new subscriber, I'm so glad I found your channel! If I was a women, I would definitely aspire to be just like you! You're so gorgeous and inspirational! I'm in the process of a transgender procedure, and will definitely be watching your channel for some much needed inspiration! Much love!!!
Love this video , I now am a huge fan of charlotte tilbury products ❤ Can't wait for blogs and videos in 2017 . Happy New Years to you , Michael and Colby 🎉💙

I LOOVVE this video! All these recommendations are gonna completely destroy my wallet!!!! Thanks for an amazing year of videos! Love yah!! BTW are you still planning on doing a "what I got for Christmas" video?
Alexandrea, happy new year pretty girl! Great favs.
I wish you would stop with the lash extensions, it looks like the lashes are heavy and they do not open your eyes!
MsYea98 her lash tech needs to put different lashes on her. But the people she goes to don't get trained properly so they don't know what curls look good with different eye shapes.
Alexandrea Garza where is your top from in this video? I love it!
Yay! Will you be doing a 2016 lifestyle favorites as well? Love you!!!
You always make me feel like you're just talking to me like a friend. That's why I love watching you!
I think Anastasia killed it with eyeshadow palettes. The Modern Renaissance and the Master Palette is what I have been using nonstop!
The Tarte concealer is in my cart! Can't wait to try it.
+Amanda John you'll love it!
love you Alex! I can't wait to see what great things are to come for you and Michael during 2017! Have a great NYE!
Aw thank you so much!
Love the longer video! Can't wait for all your new videos coming up!
You loved the peach Palette when it came out.
Anastasia Modern Renaissance is my favorite!!!
I love Charlotte's liners too! Especially those shades!
I don't mean to say this in a bad way at all. But I haven't watched in a while and she looks different. Did she get fillers in her face? If yes does she have a vlog on it?! xx
+Diana Malak no way! Just gained a little "holiday" weight!
Alexandrea Garza lol I def did that as well 😊 and I only even asked because I think your under eye area looks awesome so it must be the new concealer - it makes it look great ! Happy new year !
Alexandrea Garza you are still gorgeous girlie!!i feel you on the weight gain!!!i gained some myself!!😃😃😃
I love how you stay true to your signature look! Totally learning that I don't have to have every palette to love makeup and appreciate it. 🤔🤔🤔 need to see what my signature look and go to is... thanks Alex! I always learn something from you!

Stumbled upon you and Michael while planning my wedding and i'm happy I did. You're both amazing!! Happy New Year! ❤
I'm going to need to try that primer

I've done this to all my mac blushes and it worked wonders!
Lorac 3 palette was my favorite! So many pretty, rosey colors
Your makeup always looks so nice!
I hope you mix the drugstore and high end make up
Laila Torabi ......exactly what I asked! LOL. I love her, but I am definitely a combination of high end and drugstore products. I'd love to see her do a best of drugstore video! There are some amazing products at the drugstore! Happy New Year!
