Hi All! Just a quick note about the lipsticks. I got a few questions about the lipsticks bleeding...the reason they look that way in the lip swatches is because I had to try on so many, as I was wiping each one off, they stained the area around my mouth. So that's why some of them look messy. I actually started with the Sigma lipsticks so those look neater and cleaner, but by the time I swatched the L'oreal and Revlon lippies, my lips were also very irritated and you can see that redness around the border in addition to a little bit of staining. I do typically use lip liner but I wanted to just show the lipsticks on their own for this video. Thanks!
@The gamer it doesn't necessarily. Faces are usually much more tanned than the inner part of one's arms, I.e. wrists. It all depends from person to person.
I just don’t understand why you don’t have a million followers, Jen. The BEST beauty channel with honest reviews and so organized and well prepared. I was at least one of the followers who suggested you try the Gucci mascara. I’m so glad you liked it. I was nervous there for a second. It is lux but makes my lashes look almost as long as my Thrive but adds slightly more volume. I was very impressed with it. I’m normally a drug store mascara girl but I have made an effort to try higher end to see if I’m missing out on anything. Chanel was just ok. Dior was just ok. The Gucci really impressed me. Doesn’t wash off as easily as the Thrive, tho, but… I saw those L’Oreal lipstick at my store and the POWDERY MATTE on the advertisement made me walk right past those. My instinct was right, so I’m glad I gave it a miss. Thanks for trying them out. It is SUCH a good idea to use lipsticks that don’t work out as blushes instead. Genius! I actually think the split pan super shock would be amazing if it was half matte half shine. I love a two-for-one.
I’m guessing, sadly, Jenn doesn’t have millions of followers is because she is approachable, dependable, warm, without affectation, honest, best friend/girl next store kind of feeling. Unfortunately, the current culture prefers the razzle dazzle, hard sell, quick fix superficial and fantastical promises of transformation into perfection. Jenn is authentic, one of us, and that’s a true gem.
Jen I was looking at those Loreal lipsticks on the Ulta site and they had good reviews. Until I noticed that all of the reviews were from people who got it for free. I hate how companies are doing that nowadays. Only a couple of people said they made their lips look dry.
You look sooo beautiful without makeup! Great skin and features! You look amazing with makeup as well, you do what makes you happy, I just wanted to point out how beautiful you are either way 🥰
Your super pretty and your voice is so soft and comforting,we have the same taste in make up and I always watch your videos and I have even went back to watch the older ones even if I just have the phone playing while I do things around the house thanks for the amazing and a little different in the best way than every other creator
I was just telling my husband that the drugstore makeup selection is terrible, all the stores in my area are bare.. I was shocked when you showed us everything you got. Thanks for sharing Jen. I am with you on the lipstick, I couldn't even tell you the last time I purchased one. I prefer a gloss so much better.
I hear people complain about the scent of Loreal lipsticks but I love it. It is one of my favorite things about the ones I have. I don't like mattes so I doubt I will try the ones you showed but I love the scent.
This is why ur my fav UA-camr! Ur different videos lately have been great & a more affordable brow formula/twist up pencil was my #1 wish & my number #2 was the bite beauty mask!!!
Thanks so much for your honest reviews, Jen! I think I speak for all of us when I say we appreciate all the hard work you put into your videos ❤️ I was wondering if you used sunscreen under the L'oreal primers and if they applied well over it?
As always I'm loving your channel ! I just found you about a week ago when I was looking up Moira cosmetics on UA-cam. So I've been bing watching you ever since lol I have DRY DRY DRY skin and lips and haven't found a lot of people to watch that have my skin type . Even though I'm a total full glam gal I've found you to be SUPER helpful!!!!! Thankyou
I loved this video. So many things that I would be interested in but now I no what to expect and the beginning of the video was awesome. I loved seeing ur decorations.
"I forgot a product, shoot! where do I rank it?" lol 🤣😂... that Rare Beauty highlighter tho 😍 I go for something more subtle but it looks stunning!... great video, as always... hugzzz 💜🤗
Hi Jen, an awesome video, thanks for the reviews, the best matte lipstick I have ever tried is the NYX Suede Matte Lipsticks, they are smooth,long lasting and affordable 🤗
We so so appreciate the swatches you do for us! They are the most true to color out of so many other swatch videos I see. Also thank you for trying all those lip colors on as well. We appreciate you Jen!!! Loved this video! Definitely picking up the fenty lip mask during this Sephora sale 😊
Hi Jen..I so agree about luxury products that are expensive and that prove to be duds. I'm a big drugstore gal but..if a bougie product is really good..
Me too! So many people complain about it, I don't know why they leave it in. To me, it's a very outdated thing...maybe back in the day people felt like that was "luxurious"?
Thank you for reviewing all these products. I am in need of some new lipsticks, so you are making my search a bit easier! I know to look at other ones than what you tested! I also like a moisturizing one… Those L’Oréal primers look promising. I need one for pores and one for redness around the nose area as well. Great news that they work. Love your look in today’s video🥰
I purchased the new Rare Beauty highlighter (20% off) the min they were available because I knew they’d sell out fast. FOMO is a problem I’m working on. 😆
Good Moning Jen!!😊 Glad to know I'm not the only one that's not a fan of the putty primers!! But I'm definitely gonna check out the Loreal primers, BEAUTIFUL!!♥️♥️♥️ Im a lip balm gal & wow, those are very drying... your makeup application is so gorgeous, my vibe!!🩷🩵💙👑💙🩵🩷🙏🏻
Thanks for the honest ranking. I was about to purchase the elf grip primer and watched this video there's like one other video on the primer I think yours was more honest. I have both other jelly grip primers already and was going to get this new one thinking it is a different kind but it's just the same different color is seems. Thanks!!!
Thanks, Jen! I saw your review of the new Elf mascara and when I went to pick it up, I saw there were other new Elf products I hadn't heard about. I thought, "Let's pump the brakes on this purchase to see what Jen has to saw about these other things!" Sure enough, I did not have to wait long! I'm going to get that mascara, but pass on the bronzer and primer for now. :)
Gonna have to try the new loreal primers. Sounds promising. Love colourpop super shock shadows. They are amazing. Love the look today. 😍 hope you have a good week even though it will be busy for you.
I decluttered most of mine. I usually use a lip brush when putting on the ones I have but there’s setting spray on the brush when I pick up the lip product. It helps a lot
I'll have to try this. I'm with you in liquid lipsticks often drying out the lips. I remember lipgloss being the only thing people used for a long time now I never hear much about it other than the Fenty gloss
I actually quite like them, so there are some of us out there. Key for me is an excellently moisturiser lip, a good for your lips ‘gloss’ several times a day & good lift mask at night. ✌🏼
I was so hoping that you were going to say what highlighter you are wearing here. It's beautiful! I do love a "glowy" highlighter. Not for everyday but for special date nights. A little steep for me so thank you for mentioning the Pixi by Petra. I will be picking one of those up! Also I will be buying the pore blurring primer. That looked really nice on your skin!
The Revolution cream bronzer has been my fave lately as well..perfect color! i go back and forth between that one and the Charlotte Tilbury contour wand. Would love to try those new Rare Beauty highlighters...they look GORGEOUS🎀💛🎀 Thank you for the great video as always😊
The mascara really works well and the Colourpop shadows got my attention too. I did not know that ELF had a new power grip primer but I had the other one already so maybe when I run out I will try it. The Fenty lip balm caught my attention also. This was a very helpful video Jen and thank you so much for the Christmas Spirit of your home too.🎅💐🌹❤
I have never bought matte lipsticks because i feel they age my face and i dont like how they feel. Can u recommend a lipstick that has shine/hydration but has good pigmentation? Most shine/lipsticks are too balmy and little longevity. Love your channel! I need a primer that minimizes pores AND mattifies, but cant find one product that addresses both.
This one mattified my skin pretty well but my favorite is the L'oreal Studio Secrets primer. It's a whipped texture/mousse primer that smooths pores better than all of my other primers and it mattifies too. My favorite lipstick that has good pigmentation and isn't drying are the Flower Beauty Petal Pout ones, but they aren't super long lasting- I'd say they're about average. Unfortunately the ingredients that make lipsticks long lasting are the ones that make your lips dry. :(
Agree with Jen about the primer. Malley cosmetics did her own version at triple the cost! Avon fmg glimmer satin lipstick might also be what you’re looking for. I have several shades and one of my favorite lipsticks in the more moisture, light feel but good pigmentation and decent longevity. They fade slowly and evenly leaving a good stain behind depending on the shade. Deeper and brighter being the shades that do this best.
Not exactly a lipstick but the Maybelline super stay vinyl ink liquid lipstick is actually pretty comfortable. I am a lipgloss/balm addict so I am constantly rubbing my lips together so anything that dries out too much doesn’t work for me.
The Fenty balm packaging intrigues me so much. I love adding color to my lip balms (mix with eyeshadow shavings/loose). Would you happen to know if there is a way to pop off the top and if it can twist the other way to retract product back? Thanks for the video! 😊
Just purchased the brow pencil today ,and can’t wait to use it . Also ,I usually purchase makeup from Walgreens and Sephora and they both have good return polices 👍
I feel like you took 'one for the team' by buying those matte lippies .. lol. My fav Revlon lipstick is the shine lipstick. Not long-lasting, but really pretty on the lips.
Those Loreal lipsticks do look very drying, though I find that with many matte lipsticks, I don't really like the formula. Though I do really enjoy a number of Loreal lipsticks- like the Glow Paradise and the Colour Riche line - wonderful - but as you said in an earlier video Jen their products are getting rather pricey. Glad to hear about the Elf luminous bronzer, I love the blushes but haven't liked any Elf bronzer that I've tried, so will give the Makeup Revolution a try. Thank you for the reccomendations Jen.
That's a huge bummer on that L'Oreal skinny lipstick. But I'm glad that you tried it out for the rest of us because the packaging would have totally sucked me in. I too can't handle a super matte lipstick. Hopefully, they'll come out with a creamier version but in the same packaging because I love those skinny lipstick tubes and they're fairly hard to find they fell out of fashion a while ago. As always thanks Jen, enjoy your Sunday. 🎄
Gheez Loreal It might be just me but 'powdery' sounds like a bad description. Thank you for reminding us that we can use lipsticks as cream blushes. Lately I've been using just slightly tinted lipglosses as lipstick and focusing more on colorful eye looks. I might be interested in that new Elf primer. The Fenty lip mask sounds great especially the packaging. As always, thank you for your work!
Good morning! I have been using NYX Lift & Snatch brow marker as liquid liner and it is amazing! I didn’t love it as a brow product (I prefer a pencil or brow gel) but I’m thrilled to be getting good use out of it. As far as lipsticks go, I am not a fan of the floral scent (or any scent) in color cosmetics. I do have a few L’Oreal lippies, but since purchasing several Merit lipsticks I haven’t reached for anything else. They are expensive, but I have gotten them for 20% off, and they are all I want to wear (the lip oils are amazing too).
Thanks so much for the real reviews. With regard to the primers-what did you think about the pore blurring properties of the color correcting version. I have redness and texture on more mature skin and am looking for a product that will address both. Your thoughts?
Thank you. I love your eyeshadows today. May I ask what are the two pink ones you are wearing called? I would like to purchase them individually if possible.
Thank you so much for testing these new products. I'm so bummed for you that you are stuck with all these drying your lips out lipsticks. Maybe you could return some...or have a lot to use as cream blush!😊I love the new primers and I think I'll get the dullness one and definitely the eyebrow pencil, I'm forever looking for a good one. Have a great day!💚
I like the ranking system. It's a nice change. I must say, I tried the Revlon lipsticks and I love them. They are weightless on the lips, last for hours, are not drying on my lips, and mimic a high end formula. I haven't tried the L'Oreal because of the awful scent that gives me a headache. Revlon makes my favorite lipsticks, the Ink Stain and these new ones which are similar to ones from a high end brand that I can't recall at the moment. They don't remind me of the Milani ones, which I also love, but don't find them to be long wearing, they are just a regular lipstick formula that is matte. Love your video's Jen. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
I definitely like the Revlon better than the L'oreal ones but I think my lips are just so dry at the moment that I don't like anything that's not a balm or gloss. Maybe I'll try them again in the spring when my lips feel more hydrated.
Loved this video and honestly in your reviews! Thank you💕💕👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🎄🎄🎄 Ps do you mind sharing your gorgeous purple sweater? It’s so very flattering on you, lovely! 🧣
Thanks for the ranking of new products. I have one of the Loreal intense lipsticks, and it is awful, it's very dry and hard to apply on the lips. They need to fix the formula. I definitely need to try more from Rare Beauty, the few products I have tried I liked, so I want to explore more from the brand.
Hey lady! Have you seen all the new stuff Physicians Formula has released. Liquid bronzer and highlights, a butter concealer to go with the butter foundation, along with a few other things. Could u review them for us please? I agree with you on the lip colors....waaaaaY to drying!! Love ur videos!!
I would agree with the Loreal lipstick, because when I bought the old version of loreal matte lipstick, it was also very dry and very unfriendly to my dry lips, although the color was pretty. It gave me the vision of all matte lipsticks were dry until I tried the Bourjois rouge velvet which is a matte but not dry at all.
That mascara does look very nice...did it hold up? I'd like to buy something like that but It is so expensive :( I do have 2 gucci lipsticks in a satin and a shine finish and they are wonderful...they do have the gucci scent though if that is offputting. I might like to buy Gucci bronzer as I love that packaging and it is a much longer lasting product. Your shadows look fab too.. I love super shocks...I have probably way too many of them.
You look so beautiful today, the brows are on point!! You're always beautiful but today you look extra 🥰 Love every single video you make and trust every single recommendation you give. You're just awesome. Hope you guys have a very blessed holiday season XOXOXO ❤️
Sadly I haven't been able to link any of them because I get them all from Stitch Fix and you have to be a member to see their site. If you're interested in trying them out, I have a link to get $25 off your first purchase. I'm signed up to get the monthly box, but I get most of my sweaters from their shop. www.stitchfix.com/invite/tqmqgh7vm7?sod=w&som=c&g=w
Hi Jen, you sold me on that Fenty lip balm, I love that it comes up out of that hole, no more dipping into a pot. Do you like that new L’Oréal primer better than the Magic Perfecting Base Face Primer? Ok, so how did you like that Gucci mascara, I see on their website you have linked that it’s on sale, even the blush and bronzer, I’ve been wanting them but have been waiting to see if they ever went on sale. Thank you❤
The mascara was awesome...it didn't smudge on me, I love it! As far as the primer I think I still like the Magic Perfecting base slightly better. This one is good but maybe not quite as smoothing...it's close though!
@@JenPhelpshank you, I’m ordering the mascara, dang it, it sold out already, I should know better, I should have gone ahead and ordered it, won’t do that next time.😢
I am going to look for the L’Oréal pore minimizing primer, I am always looking for a good affordable product to hide my large pores. Your videos are always helpful, thanks so much 🥰
Hi Jen! I have the same advent calendar for my boys (6,4) and I realized that we were doing it incorrectly after I saw Emily Noel last year. She started at 24 and worked up to the star! That made so much more sense. Then you can count down how many ‘sleeps’ til Jesus’ birthday, when you place the ⭐️
I love 95% of the loreal lippies and don't mind the floral scent as I don't notice it after a moment or two. These are some of the best 💄 at the drugstore. These particular ones are beautiful and rather drying. I so agree with you.
The best drugstore lipstick is the Maybelline Vinyl Ink! Have you tried these? The feel super comfortable, lasts forever & looks shiny! I have five shades & find myself reaching for it more than my higher-end lip products, especially when I know I’m going to be out all night❤
Hi All! Just a quick note about the lipsticks. I got a few questions about the lipsticks bleeding...the reason they look that way in the lip swatches is because I had to try on so many, as I was wiping each one off, they stained the area around my mouth.

I do typically use lip liner but I wanted to just show the lipsticks on their own for this video. Thanks!
You p ok o
Should have swatched them on your wrist. That’s one area that actually shows what the color would look like on the lips 😳
@The gamer it doesn't necessarily. Faces are usually much more tanned than the inner part of one's arms, I.e. wrists. It all depends from person to person.
Thanks for swatching for us. Hope your lips feel better soon.
See now, I would never think of this as user error. It's much easier to blame the product!
I just don’t understand why you don’t have a million followers, Jen. The BEST beauty channel with honest reviews and so organized and well prepared.

Aw thank you Kari! Thanks for the suggestion on the Gucci mascara, it's amazing!! I really love it.

Seriously that's crazy !! Everyone just lies now a days it's hard to find true authentic people these days . Thank you for sharing
Thank you for uploading so much great content this month!
Jen, I loved the ranking format! Would love to see more in the future.
Ah Jen you look so radiant today, I love this colour on you and the eyeshadow is lovely! Have a great Sunday 🥰 x
Thank you so much Milli!
You look sooo beautiful without makeup! Great skin and features! You look amazing with makeup as well, you do what makes you happy, I just wanted to point out how beautiful you are either way 🥰
That Gucci mascara transformed your lashes!😍
That Fenty lip mask is tempting.
Love how Jen’s been doing more colorful eye looks lately. Also her makeup in general lately has been on point. Thanks for your videos❤
Your super pretty and your voice is so soft and comforting,we have the same taste in make up and I always watch your videos and I have even went back to watch the older ones even if I just have the phone playing while I do things around the house thanks for the amazing and a little different in the best way than every other creator
Aw thank you Tonya! I appreciate it SO much! 🤗🥰
LOVE your vlogmas opening. So homey and happy. It really puts me in the holiday mood. Nicely done! ❤️

Me too! Gloss or tinted balm all the way!
Ahhh love your Christmas decor, so pretty
I LOVE to hear your reviews on products 👍🏼 I’m hoping you will do your best and worst drugstore products of the year. 🎉
Yes! As we get closer to the end of the year!
I hear people complain about the scent of Loreal lipsticks but I love it. It is one of my favorite things about the ones I have. I don't like mattes so I doubt I will try the ones you showed but I love the scent.

As always I'm loving your channel ! I just found you about a week ago when I was looking up Moira cosmetics on UA-cam. So I've been bing watching you ever since lol I have DRY DRY DRY skin and lips and haven't found a lot of people to watch that have my skin type . Even though I'm a total full glam gal I've found you to be SUPER helpful!!!!! Thankyou

That was so much fun! I love your videos. I haven’t seen any of these at retail yet but I’ll be on the lookout for the brow pencil.
I love ranking videos! Thank you!!
Loreal has great lip products but that floral scent turned me away from them.
Same. I wanted to like the infallible foundation too but same problem, the sickly sweet scent was so strong
Me too! So many people complain about it, I don't know why they leave it in. To me, it's a very outdated thing...maybe back in the day people felt like that was "luxurious"?
I hate it too, but I endure it because I really like their various formulas. With they'd remove the fragrance.
I agree. Who wants to smell like Grandma's dead garden?
Their liquid lip products don't have as strong of a fragrance. I really enjoy their lip stain. My favorite color is Be Determined.
Thank you for reviewing all these products. I am in need of some new lipsticks, so you are making my search a bit easier! I know to look at other ones than what you tested! I also like a moisturizing one…
Those L’Oréal primers look promising. I need one for pores and one for redness around the nose area as well. Great news that they work.
Love your look in today’s video🥰
Love this format for the Sunday video. Would love to see more 😊
omg, i want the super shock vault soooo badly!!! the new sigma lipsticks look very beautiful as well.
Really enjoy this ranking video Jen! Always a pleasure to view your cosmetic shares, always chock full of good stuff including your intro.😊
I purchased the new Rare Beauty highlighter (20% off) the min they were available because I knew they’d sell out fast. FOMO is a problem I’m working on. 😆

Good morning Jen!❤️☕️ 10:50 that L’Oréal green primer looks perfect for my needs.
I was having trouble deciding which is better between the best bud and the Fenty lip mask - SOLD on the Fenty!!!!!

Gonna have to try the new loreal primers. Sounds promising. Love colourpop super shock shadows. They are amazing. Love the look today. 😍 hope you have a good week even though it will be busy for you.
Aw thank you Najette! I'm going to try not to get stressed out and just go with the flow. I hope you have a good week ahead!
When will cosmetics companies quit trying to push matte lipsticks on us!!! The liquid mattes are the worst. There is nothing good about these.
I decluttered most of mine. I usually use a lip brush when putting on the ones I have but there’s setting spray on the brush when I pick up the lip product. It helps a lot
I'll have to try this. I'm with you in liquid lipsticks often drying out the lips.

Glad to hear about the Elf luminous bronzer, I love the blushes but haven't liked any Elf bronzer that I've tried, so will give the Makeup Revolution a try. Thank you for the reccomendations Jen.
Oh wow! The Rare beauty highlight looks so stunning on you! 😍
That's a huge bummer on that L'Oreal skinny lipstick. But I'm glad that you tried it out for the rest of us because the packaging would have totally sucked me in. I too can't handle a super matte lipstick. Hopefully, they'll come out with a creamier version but in the same packaging because I love those skinny lipstick tubes and they're fairly hard to find they fell out of fashion a while ago. As always thanks Jen, enjoy your Sunday. 🎄

It might be just me but 'powdery' sounds like a bad description.
Thank you for reminding us that we can use lipsticks as cream blushes. Lately I've been using just slightly tinted lipglosses as lipstick and focusing more on colorful eye looks.
I might be interested in that new Elf primer. The Fenty lip mask sounds great especially the packaging.
As always, thank you for your work!
Wonderful review! Ranking was great way to organize them 🍂♥️🥰, that lip mask looks so nice, thanks so much!
Good morning! I have been using NYX Lift & Snatch brow marker as liquid liner and it is amazing! I didn’t love it as a brow product (I prefer a pencil or brow gel) but I’m thrilled to be getting good use out of it. As far as lipsticks go, I am not a fan of the floral scent (or any scent) in color cosmetics. I do have a few L’Oreal lippies, but since purchasing several Merit lipsticks I haven’t reached for anything else. They are expensive, but I have gotten them for 20% off, and they are all I want to wear (the lip oils are amazing too).
Thanks so much for the real reviews. With regard to the primers-what did you think about the pore blurring properties of the color correcting version. I have redness and texture on more mature skin and am looking for a product that will address both. Your thoughts?
The green one didn't do anything for my pores. I had to use the pore smoother first and then went over it with the redness reducer.
Def interested in those Loreal primers. Hope they release in Canada.
Thank you. I love your eyeshadows today. May I ask what are the two pink ones you are wearing called? I would like to purchase them individually if possible.
That mascara looks just up my alley and the redness primer too 😍
Thank you so much for testing these new products. I'm so bummed for you that you are stuck with all these drying your lips out lipsticks. Maybe you could return some...or have a lot to use as cream blush!😊I love the new primers and I think I'll get the dullness one and definitely the eyebrow pencil, I'm forever looking for a good one. Have a great day!💚
Yes! I actually mentioned that when I was talking about the Revlon ones...I used one of them as a cream blush in today's video. :)
Absolutely return those items they can you use them as testers anyways
I like the ranking system. It's a nice change. I must say, I tried the Revlon lipsticks and I love them. They are weightless on the lips, last for hours, are not drying on my lips, and mimic a high end formula. I haven't tried the L'Oreal because of the awful scent that gives me a headache. Revlon makes my favorite lipsticks, the Ink Stain and these new ones which are similar to ones from a high end brand that I can't recall at the moment. They don't remind me of the Milani ones, which I also love, but don't find them to be long wearing, they are just a regular lipstick formula that is matte. Love your video's Jen. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
I definitely like the Revlon better than the L'oreal ones but I think my lips are just so dry at the moment that I don't like anything that's not a balm or gloss. Maybe I'll try them again in the spring when my lips feel more hydrated.
Loved this video and honestly in your reviews! Thank you💕💕👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🎄🎄🎄
Ps do you mind sharing your gorgeous purple sweater? It’s so very flattering on you, lovely! 🧣
Love this video! I love the ranking system! 😀
Interested in the Revlon Micro brow pencil. I buy the original Colorstay one to darken my mole above my lip and I only buy it every few years, lol
Hi Jen, Happy Sunday! 💖 I hope you’re having a nice day. Can you please tell me what eyeshadow say that you are wearing? It is very pretty! Thanks
I was wondering which super shock shadows those were called that you were wearing? Thank you so much
Will definitely try the Loreal pore primer! What didn't you like about the Elf pore putty primer? ♥️
It was just ok...I didn't feel like it really minimized my pores and was a little bit drying.
Thanks for the ranking of new products. I have one of the Loreal intense lipsticks, and it is awful, it's very dry and hard to apply on the lips. They need to fix the formula. I definitely need to try more from Rare Beauty, the few products I have tried I liked, so I want to explore more from the brand.
Thanks for all the information! You teach us so much!
I missed a couple of your Christmas posts. Have you ever used laneige lip sleeping mask? Wondering if that Fenty is as emollient?
Hey lady! Have you seen all the new stuff Physicians Formula has released. Liquid bronzer and highlights, a butter concealer to go with the butter foundation, along with a few other things. Could u review them for us please? I agree with you on the lip colors....waaaaaY to drying!! Love ur videos!!
Yes I definitely will!
I would agree with the Loreal lipstick, because when I bought the old version of loreal matte lipstick, it was also very dry and very unfriendly to my dry lips, although the color was pretty. It gave me the vision of all matte lipsticks were dry until I tried the Bourjois rouge velvet which is a matte but not dry at all.
Hi, Jen! What do you think of the new Colourpop Aurora pallette? It is very tempting to me.
I actually did a whole video on it this week! It's gorgeous! ua-cam.com/video/rjAPXs-hVlg/v-deo.html
Jen I want your sweater! 😁
Aw thank you! I got it from Stitch Fix!
Thank you for doing this! I saw the fenty lip mask last night but I wanted to wait for some reviews. Now I definitely want it lol!
It's so good!!
Is the Fenty lip balm better than the buds? Lol you just mentioned it!! I think I'll have to pick you the Fenty if it's already that close the Tarte
It's really good! Haha!
I can't go back to matte lips! My lips are sooo dry all year long 😥
That mascara does look very nice...did it hold up? I'd like to buy something like that but It is so expensive :(
I do have 2 gucci lipsticks in a satin and a shine finish and they are wonderful...they do have the gucci scent though if that is offputting. I might like to buy Gucci bronzer as I love that packaging and it is a much longer lasting product.
Your shadows look fab too.. I love super shocks...I have probably way too many of them.
Your videos always put me in a good mood!
Very cute Xmas mantle & very pretty lavender 💜.
I think sigma lipsticks are my favorite on your lips. If I had to compare with the other lipsticks you spoke of.
Mine too!
You look so beautiful today, the brows are on point!! You're always beautiful but today you look extra 🥰 Love every single video you make and trust every single recommendation you give. You're just awesome. Hope you guys have a very blessed holiday season XOXOXO ❤️
Holy Cow that Gucci mascara looks amazing!!!
Right?! I loved the results!
@@JenPhelps Did it smudge? That’s my biggest problem with mascara. 😢
Your home and neighborhood are gorgeous.
Thank you so much!
I really like the way you did this video! I felt sorry for your lips though! All those swatches! Thank you for such great content all the time!
They were burning by the end, haha!
Jen- I continue to love your sweaters! Can you post a link to what you are wearing in this video? Love the purple❤
Sadly I haven't been able to link any of them because I get them all from Stitch Fix and you have to be a member to see their site. If you're interested in trying them out, I have a link to get $25 off your first purchase. I'm signed up to get the monthly box, but I get most of my sweaters from their shop. www.stitchfix.com/invite/tqmqgh7vm7?sod=w&som=c&g=w
Thx Jen- I forgot that you’d told me this b4! I will use your link- thank you❣️
Amazing reviews! These are SO helpful. ❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍
Thank you Jen! Your reviews are always so helpful!
Hi Jen, you sold me on that Fenty lip balm, I love that it comes up out of that hole, no more dipping into a pot. Do you like that new L’Oréal primer better than the Magic Perfecting Base Face Primer?
Ok, so how did you like that Gucci mascara, I see on their website you have linked that it’s on sale, even the blush and bronzer, I’ve been wanting them but have been waiting to see if they ever went on sale. Thank you❤
The mascara was awesome...it didn't smudge on me, I love it! As far as the primer I think I still like the Magic Perfecting base slightly better. This one is good but maybe not quite as smoothing...it's close though!
@@JenPhelpshank you, I’m ordering the mascara, dang it, it sold out already, I should know better, I should have gone ahead and ordered it, won’t do that next time.😢
I’m so glad you reviewed the L’Oréal lipsticks, I was going to get a couple. The Rare Beauty highlighter has been calling my name, lol💜
I am going to look for the L’Oréal pore minimizing primer, I am always looking for a good affordable product to hide my large pores. Your videos are always helpful, thanks so much 🥰
Lip mask ordered!! 🙌🏼
GREAT INFORMATION! Love you videos and the information is fantastic
Hi Jen! I have the same advent calendar for my boys (6,4) and I realized that we were doing it incorrectly after I saw Emily Noel last year. She started at 24 and worked up to the star! That made so much more sense. Then you can count down how many ‘sleeps’ til Jesus’ birthday, when you place the ⭐️
Oh that makes sense! 🤣
I love 95% of the loreal lippies and don't mind the floral scent as I don't notice it after a moment or two. These are some of the best 💄 at the drugstore. These particular ones are beautiful and rather drying. I so agree with you.
Hi great video
I love your pink eyeshadow what is that brand ?
Just found your channel. Love it
The best drugstore lipstick is the Maybelline Vinyl Ink! Have you tried these? The feel super comfortable, lasts forever & looks shiny! I have five shades & find myself reaching for it more than my higher-end lip products, especially when I know I’m going to be out all night❤
Hi i watched one of your videos and u recommended a product for redness. believe it was a foundation. would love too no the name. thank u
