    Your response to the angry comment about the cleansing balm value is exactly why I subscribe to your channel. You do your research, you are trustworthy, and most importantly you keep it classy! We so appreciate you Andrea! 💕

    It’s ridiculous that people were getting angry about the price of the elf balm. If you want an even better deal then you can wait until elf has a 50% off sale and pick it up for an even bigger steal.

I do not know what you did in a 'former life' career wise but I am very thankful you have chosen this arena. Your integrity shines through regardless of your makeup application! Thank you for being sensitive yet strong enough to follow through with your opinions - people are sometimes so ugly regardless of their 'makeup'.

    I want to thank you for your genius tip on using a face oil on your cuticles!! Brilliant! I have oily skin, and I used to subscribe to a lot of different beauty boxes so I have tons of mini face oils that I'll never use on my actual face. When you said that you used your oil on your cuticles, I swear i had a lightbulb appear over my head! Such a great idea! Love you ❤

    Another thing to keep in mind when looking at price per oz is the fact that some folks are not willing to pay $38 to try a product. I appreciate affordable options to try.

If you use the $3.50 off Ulta coupon with the sale, it's only $6.25 a piece. Ulta is running this sale again at the time of your video. Such a great deal!

    I am really enjoying empties videos lately and also similar products but not necessarily exact dupes. I have been really trying hard to finish up some products since I took a good look at my collection and saw a bit of repetition in color, like blushes, for example. Of course I love to try new things, too, but I remind myself everything isn't limited time only and I have lots to enjoy. Having said that, I'm super proud of finishing up a skin tint from Sephora, a squeeze tube lip balm from Colourpop, a face oil from OliviaCare, e.l.f. holy hydration FF cream, and I'm nearly there on my Bare minerals concealers (two shades).

    OMG, thank you so much actually for saying Garnier is cruelty free, I did not know, that is great. Also thanks for recommending the UD Lash Freak, I also bought the mini and like it very much. I usually buy the minis for high end mascaras to see if they work, but I really like the Essence ones, as well. The only one I did not like and did nothing for my lashes was the Elf one you mentioned, sadly, I wanted to like it. Today I've used the Huda Beauty one with the dual wands (Legit Lashes?) and my lashes never looked so long. I am also currently using the Elf make up remover balm and the first time my eyes didn't like it too much but I am giving it another shot.
    Thank you for your great videos, I always enjoy watching them. Have a great weekend, love from Ireland.
