I’ll also share thoughts on my 2024 content direction and how I plan to continue connecting with women over 40 and beyond who love beauty, skincare, and lifestyle content.
I’m starting with my skincare routine today, testing new makeup, and chatting about real-life experiences many of us face.

YES!!! Let's open up on the topic of menopause in an open forum! It's needs to be discussed!!!
@@kristinesanta6971 I agree! And being healthy is part of being beautiful so I think that topic fits.
Totally! It is a natural progression of life that is not discussed nearly enough. I love the honest discussion!
52yr old here! Like this real life type of content; a blend of pseudo vlog/lifestyle/skincare/lifestyle. Sometimes a one-type channel if watched consistently leans boring after months. This was so refreshing and thank you for sharing what we’ve been experiencing as well. Vertigo and ferritin insufficiency sufferer here.
Same! I’m 53😊
Vertigo sufferer here too. And…..I’m much older than you. 😊
@@jenniferkleidon9349 completely agree
I’m also 52 years old and love making beauty content but have a hard time finding an audience for it - I’m thinking of quitting UA-cam altogether
50 years old. Diagnosed with covid days before Christmas. I was also not done shopping or decorating or ANYTHING! Luckily my in-laws are next door, so even though I was technically home alone on Christmas (I felt too crappy to care), I was not really alone for more than two hours and very well cared for.
I love this type of video and am more inclined to watch these rather than product reviews. It’s a lovely, warm style of video and shows your authentic self (not that I think you’re anything but authentic), it shows you’re a real person just like the rest of us! I’d love to see a Smokey eye look chatty video as now that I’m 50 I shy away from that type of eye look as I think it makes me look older so a way of doing that and not adding 10yrs to my face would be great!
It’s weird because I told another creator the same thing and then she did the video but she kept saying that she’s just not into that /I didn’t know how to take that .. but then I realize that’s OK. We’re not all into the same thing at the same time so I’ll just watch other things .I’m not a big Amazon fan . I’m not against anyone else being into Amazon and I understand the ease of getting things. Yeah I like learning the skills.
I would love to hear about how everyone else is coping through perimenopause. Makes it feel like we're not going through it alone!
@@ussncc1701d oh I’m with you! I don’t think I’m really “dealing “ with perimenopause but I’m having crazy hot flashes that make me turn on the air conditioner at night and during the day!!
HRT is a lifesaver! Sleeping, no more joint pain, brain fog, ringing ears.
Since I'm 75 I'm post menopausal. But I am one of the lucky ones who has no issues during that perimenopausal time. No hot flashes or any other adverse side effects. (Sorry)
Agree with @Dkb522, I’m 55 and HRT was a game changer. Hot flashes went away; able to sleep through the night again. Had 2-3 crazy periods after I started hrt, but then normal and I think I’m pretty close to going into full menopause now.
Just started hot flashes… they’re pretty fun… 🙄
59-year old here and I love your videos. You maintain authenticity by admitting about your struggles - hearing, back, perimenopause. I for one really enjoy that because it makes your makeup application and tips even more real. You have struggles like we all do but there you are bringing out your incredible beauty with your makeup tips and making it seem like we can do it, too. Thank you, Stephanie!
I enjoy chats about topics for older women 45+
I love a chatty GRWM video and as a 45 year old that literally heard nothing about perimenopause until a year or two ago I would love women’s health as a topic. Basically I just love authentic conversation and fun makeup, thanks for keeping that up!
I’m in perimenopause. I’m having hot flashes like crazy!!!
The best way to honor the beloved pet you lost is to adopt another fur baby to love! Lots of young adult dogs in shelters who need homes.
Stephanie, my nephew loves dogs. He is well versed in all breeds. We had a long discussion on adopting versus buying. He shed light on the topic with factual information. If you would like information, do not hesitate to contact me. (He has 2 beloved dogs that passed)
I love a diversified content. Peri menopause and menopause still in 2024 are not discussed. Not as they should. Women need to support each other. !
Would love more on menopause and other life issues/topics!
I’m 55 and enjoy content that includes different things, including skincare, lifestyle, makeup, personal vlogs. I enjoy your channel and that you aren’t afraid to be yourself. I love this type of video. Thank you for all you do!
We should talk about anything that affects our beauty, including all the weirdness of menopause!
I love movies, books, health, exercise, fashion and makeup videos. I love to learn about new things & it helps to know that others are experiencing similar issues.
39 and would triple click on perimenopause chats from you!
I always watch all of your videos, but the rawness and humor in this one was so relatable and extra nice.
I’m also requesting updated videos on your morning and evening skincare routines ❤
You're lucky to get your hearing back. My brother went deaf overnight in one ear. He actually woke up in the night and went straight into steroids. I think they related it back to the Vax. His hearing never came back. On another note, You'll never regret loving a new dog. They bring so much joy!
49 year old here, hit with the peri sledgehammer! Love hearing about the experience of others so I don't feel alone and crazy!
Hi Stephanie 😊👋🏻 57-year old here! 🙋🏻♀️ ❤ this mish-mash chatty GRWM video. It’s the relaxing type of video I need in this crazy life of mine. 🤪😂 I have fewer YT subscriptions now but the ones I kept, like yours, are important to me. I don’t rely on YT notifications to watch videos, I always go directly to the subscriptions section of YT.
I like a good old-fashioned GRWM chatty video. The chatting can be about anything -- lifestyle, travel, home, TV etc...
I enjoy chatty videos, self help, educational, often lighthearted subjects. I’m overwhelmed with consumerism
Oh hon, I'm so sorry you lost Luke. They are so precious. Our Maggie is 16. It's difficult to say goodbye. Consider a shelter dog. We have four we adopted them as mature dogs. They realize how lucky they are and return the love!
Consider using a natural progesterone cream. I breezed through menopause. Stopped hot flashes and restored sleep. Try Eve's Generational Formula from HM Enterprises You can speak directly to a consultant. I'm 66 and continue to use it.
Absolutely love you sharing research info - not only GRWM make-up, but also general women's health and mental health topics. I am 62 and have been post menopaulsal since a full hysterectomy at the age of 37. I needed information on HRT, but even my doctors were vague when it came to discussing these issues. I just started watching videos for mature make-up about 6 months ago, and I love your videos! Thanks Stephanie Marie.
I would definitely watch a GRWM where you talk about different topics while applying products and talking about these products and applications mixed with the topics. When I personally like a creator and their personality, I also enjoy hearing about their life, things they are going through… I think it’s a great balance with the other type of videos that you already make. And Stephanie, sometimes it takes a bite longer for the followers to understand and like different types of videos from a creator that they already follow, so it’s good to give a bit of time to see if they adapt. I like longer videos because I know you will give more information in those. But I also love “best of drugstore” or “products worth the splurge” type of videos.
And I hope you figure out what’s going on with your hearing and that it’s nothing serious 🙏
I LOVED the gradient colors tip!! Thank you!
Stephanie, so sorry about Luke. He brought lots of joy to your followers. Also, you are beautiful with just a freshly washed face. Always love your content ❤
I just went through a similar situation. We had to put our dog to sleep that we had for 18 years. I too have had dogs my whole life, but my last dog was just the love of my life, the thought of ever having another dog never crossed my mind. Fast forward fours months and slowly my son, then my husband and myself realized we wanted to get a new dog. So we rescued a little puppy, who is now 8 months, and we just love the little guy so much!!! We still miss our other dog terribly, but it’s definitely easier to deal with since we have our new little guy. If you do get a new dog, I’m sure you will be happy you did!
I'm so sorry for your loss and so glad you've found a precious little guy to love! Thank you for sharing that with me. 💖
52 years old here and YES, perimenopause/menopause needs to be a topic. I feel it fits right in with beauty content. Everything we are going through makes it hard to feel beautiful, and knowing others are going through that too makes us feel not so alone. My beauty routine has COMPLETELY changed since entering this phase of life.
Stephanie I enjoy your GRWM's. I hope your ear issues clear up. Luke was a doll baby! I hope you can open your heart to getting a new pup. I am a dog lover also and as heart wrenching it is to lose a beloved pet, eventually I always am ready to invite a new one into my heart. I also have struggled with depression most of my life, so pets have always offered comfort in this regard. Also, if don't already, try taking a vitamin D supplement in the MORNING to help with sleep. Yes, I would watch any of your videos. I am 58, so any type of aging, physical, mental, beauty, skincare I am interested in. Your videos don't always show up readily in my feed even though I am a longtime subscriber.
46 here in the full swing of perimenopause! To me beauty (make up/skin/hair) is all apart of wellness. I love hearing about fellow women facing similar challenges as myself! Keep it up! Building a community helps all!
Stephanie, I'd LOVE any type of content you choose to do so don't let anything stop your instincts toward filming new things. I'm not very technically savvy, so I've always thought I HAD to go to your site to pick videos to watch. Honestly, I can't watch often, but when I can, I always go catch up on any videos I've missed and have never relied on UA-cam for that. Lastly, I'm so sorry
you're still obviously grieving your prescious Luke's passing, though it's, of course, always completely understandable. 😢 I've lost so many pets that I STILL grieve for immensely, but it never ceases to amaze me how much love there is, time after time, to cont. adding yet even more fluffiness to our family!! 🐕🐈🐇 I then too end up realizing that my heart just expands for NEW love, never encroaching on the space I have for other loves of my life. Once a "new" love enters your life, you'll never know how you could've ever been without it -- it's awesome! So go get that new dog, cat, or even rabbit, of any age, and let your love grow and grow ❣️
I loved this video because it felt like friends talking honestly about anything and everything. I will always watch you as you’re in my top 5 favorite creators. However, since I’m 68 the topic of menopause would not interest me much so those I would probably pass on. I don’t feel that you need to do only makeup related videos to keep or grow your subscribers. I can tell that you’re a very interesting person and have a lot more to offer other than makeup applications (which you are extremely good at). Content expansion would be exciting! Fashion is definitely something I’d like to see more in-depth like how to style one pair of jeans/pants various ways, hobby ideas, hair styling, ways to organize all the makeup we’re accumulating, inspiration for decorating. Just to name a few ideas. You’re lovely and keep getting better!
Would love to hear more topics on perimenopause and menopause… it would be so helpful to many of us starting this new chapter in our lives. ❤
Yes Stephanie, please do a dedicated video on perimenopause!! I’m 43 and am pretty clueless about it because, you’re right; no one talks about it!!
Love your channel and love all your content, but would love to hear more about perimenopause/menopause and would also love to see more dramatic eye looks too, thanks so much and hope you had a happy and safe festive season.
Hi Stephanie Marie!
Happy New Year! I’ve been watching your videos for many years. Please continue what you are doing but it would be great if you added more vlogs - I never thought of myself as someone that would be interested in that type of content but have been loving it from Jessica Braun and Michelle Wang and I would enjoy this content from you too 😊
I would be so interested in content about perimenopause and menopause. I went through this myself the past year and it is definitely the most under-reported and underinformed content on social media in my opinion. So many women struggling with no information out there! Thank you for sharing your story. ❤
I so agree with you that this Christmas was so chaotic. I think it’s due to how close Thanksgiving and December 1st was from each other. I usually have everything decorated by Dec 1-5. This year I was still decorating the week before Christmas. It was crazy.
I do like chatty videos and you don’t need to do only beauty content. We will watch.
I’d love more chatty content that talks about perimenopause! I just turned 40, but had children later in life so picking apart perimenopause or postpartum has just been so fuzzy!
I’m 54 and love this style of content! I think conversations about menopause need to happen more often and I value your opinion and knowledge because I think whatever we can do to help each other out through these phases of life is a wonderful thing! ❤
Hi I’m 48 and also going through perimenopause. I would love to hear more as I’ve been struggling for 3 years now. I’m on HRT but think I need to be tested again as my symptoms are back with a vengeance. I really would enjoy life topics like books movies exercise and diet that has worked for you etc. I don’t think you need another channel at all. I also don’t get notified all the time just sometimes but I always click on my subscription button to see the channels I follow and if yours or anyone’s has a red dot it means there’s a new video waiting for me. I always am up to date on your videos thank you for all your efforts.
Loved this GRWM video. It was fun hearing an update on your off camera life. For me, getting another pet (in my case a cat) after losing our 16 yr old Sasha helped me with the loss. Of course, it didn't replace her but the new kitty gave me something to focus on beside my grief. I would love to see various looks with the eyeshadow pallet in a dedicated video.
I really enjoy your GRWM videos, but I enjoy most of your videos. I'd love to hear videos talking about perimenopause and aging.
45 yr old with no female circle really or family, incredibly grateful for these videos and love the make up included, keep them coming SM
thank you so much for getting personal here! i am not subscriber. i'm a CHATTY GRWM long form beauty video person, primarily. i always find something i didn't know i was looking for when i click videos about that. i want to watch people talk and put makeup on their face, enjoy it, get excited about it, but NOT be a salesperson. i'm 35...wait, no, 34🙃going forward, i want to watch content where WOMEN DO WHAT THEY WANT TO DO. women's health has been neglected in the states and talking about that is IMPORTANT. i hope you find a feeling of peace and JOY in whatever you create💓
I am so sorry to hear about Luke. I lost my 15 year Maltese last year, and at 65 we did not plan to get another dog. But then a long hair chihuachua showed up on our property. We took her to the shelter but no one claimed her so we adopted her. She was one year old at the time. The easiest dog I have ever had (and I have had many dogs). We named her Gracie because she showed up during Holy week. What a blessing she has been to me and my husband. Sending you hugs 🤗
I'm so sorry for your loss! What a blessing for you though! Thank you for sharing that and for your kind words 💖
Like get ready with me style, more casual, and i learned something, (eye tips ,mascara),🙃💖
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! 💖
I love watching get ready with me videos! I always learn something. 💖
I actually prefer this style of video of your others! This is probably my favorite video that I’ve seen from you! Keep it up and happy new year!
I like your videos as a rule, but this one is MY FAVORITE EVER! Although makeup can help us feel better about what is going on in our lives, our lives are not just about makeup!
Now I feel like you are my neighbor or a friend somehow, not just a face on YT.
I can't even say how sorry I am about the loss of your puppers! They are family indeed, and it breaks my heart that their lifespans are so short! Hugs and tears... and the only advice I can give: Don't let grief get in the way of loving another pet!
Definitely a GRWM! I love watching your selection of products & application!🩷🫶🏼🎀🫶🏼🩷
I would love love to hear about perimenopause/menopause and beauty channel. It changes things up, it’s not out there really for consumption, and it really applies to my life. Love your videos Stephanie!
I completely agree!
I think it is nice to see videos that help us use what we currently have, rather than always the newest items. There is a channel that does a "tournament bracket" with foundations, blushes, etc. that I love because it doesn't always focus on the new. With this economy, money is tighter and I don't always want to see items I can't currently afford. Also, as a newly menopausal woman, I like to see videos concerning new issues like hair loss, hot flashes, etc.
I REALLY like the way you did this video, and I love the idea of having chatty GRWM discussing different topics while you do makeup and evaluate products. It's like hanging out with a girlfriend while also getting makeup & skincare input while I do my own makeup and just my day feel....better. As for the joys of your menopause adventure... yeah, it kind of sucks. I'm 54 and my menopause journey lasted over eight years, and even being post-menopausal has it's challenges. Ear issues are, in fact, a menopause symptom for many of us, whether it's itching, chronic ringing/tone in the ears (that's me), and even "plugged" ear hearing loss, which two members of my extended family experience. (I hope your hearing loss is just a menopausal symptom and nothing something more serious.) Personally, I've experience the greatest relief of symptoms by going on a strict keto/carnivore diet. I tried bioidentical hormones but haven't been able to tolerate the side effects. Everyone's different, so find what works for you, and know that we hormonal heroines are out here cheering you on with love.
I love the idea of talking about other things. I LOVE skincare and makeup, but we are all so much more dynamic than that. I’m 45 and perimenopause has been kicking my butt but I started HRT and I’m fighting back so I’d love to hear more on that topic.
Dogs are the best - puppies are hard lol but worth it. I always see senior dogs at our local shelters for adoption so that may be something to think about if you’re not up to puppy life. ❤❤❤❤
I REALLY enjoyed this. You hit on so many good topics all while applying and talking about the makeup!
Wonderful eye tutorial, looks like quiet glam and so flattering. Thank you Stephanie for being you and sharing with us.
Girl power 😊 no matter what our age.
The first video that I had ever watched on your channel was not makeup related, but it 2 years ago about losing 20lbs. You were very candid, open, and raw. And I’ve continued to watch your videos since. Being 45 myself, I think it’s important for women to discuss peri/menopause. It’s not discussed enough. And all women struggle with various symptoms. A lot of people rely on social media and YT to connect with others. I think you discussing these topics during a GRWM will allow women to openly discuss these issues and feel like they aren’t the only one.
Loved this video, and I would definitely watch more of these. And the menopause talk is very helpful!!! It’s so good to hear that I’m not alone in the “lovely” symptoms that keep showing up!! Thank you for continuing to share with us!!
If it weren’t for beauty creators, I would not have ever known about symptoms of Menopause and all the amazing benefits of HRT. It got me to do my own research and it changed my life. I believe beauty and menopause are intertwined, for example estrogen cream. I love seeing more and more women educating women. Maybe my daughters won’t have to struggle into their 40’s and 50’s. Thank you
Hi Stephanie, New Zealand subscriber here!
Loved the chat, the peri meno subject, I can totally relate-the eye roll moment when you said you’re hardly sleeping 🙄I’m the same, the same exact age as you, even the same dry undereyes. I’ve was struggling for about 2years testing out and trying all sorts of makeup for my skin and undereyes…then I found you! I love your content and especially all the “mature” skin chat and beauty reviews.
Yes please to all the talk of Perimenopause, hacks and tips that could help, aging, mature skin etc. I can’t believe I am in this era of my life really. I’m not adjusting that well to the aging process- it is knocking my confidence. I’m glad to tune in and find I’m not the only one going through some of this (helps me to read other people’s comments)
Also,yes please to the MbyM Moonlight tutorial!
I’m thinking of getting it 😊
Please open the flood gates of the peri conversation. Like you, so many of us never knew peri even existed until it showed up at our door. The conversation is so important for all women who are entering /are in this phase of life and have no idea wth is wrong. Super important conversation. Thank you for bringing it up and no, no need for a separate channel. Love these chats about real life.
I would love open talks on different subjects. I'm 61 and post menopause. Hormone replacement was hard for me to get, providers didn't want to prescribe them due to lack of their education. They have made a WORLD of difference for me.
My husband and I got a small dog who was a puppy. I was 65 at the time. I put his soft bed crate on an ottoman and put it next to me in bed. He didn’t cry because he was able to see me during the night. Within a few weeks, I slowly moved him to where I wanted him to stay, and he’s been fine ever since. It took me about a week and a half to housebreak him, but I was very diligent. So worth it. They bring you so much joy.
I like this video and I’m also in perimenopause as well (age 49). I would welcome chatty grwm content. 👍🏻I still watch tutorials and am interested in streamlining my beauty routine and looking more natural but better with makeup. I still love makeup so much but want to see “shop your stash” content, and tips and tricks to make my makeup better but simpler. I’m embracing more minimal looking makeup. I still love learning about makeup trends and new techniques, etc. I hope this helps! I’m also very much into eyeshadows though but enjoying more natural looking shadows. I still love a nice baby winged liner (brown pencil or liquid or shadow liner), bronzer or neutral shadow in the crease and a topper shadow on the lid with a lengthening mascara or brown mascara. ❤ That is my favorite everyday look and super easy. ❤Thank you for teaching some great techniques for hooded eyes. Mine are deep set / hooded but it’s very similar in the way makeup helps open and lift my eyes. I’m glad the younger generation is learning about and embracing a more natural makeup look as well. Some makeup looks are just classic and stand the test of time. P.S. I love eyeshadow palette specific tutorials as well! I save and go back and watch them whenever I’m looking for inspo with a certain palette. Love smoky eyes these days too. Especially with the palette you used here.
Grwm are so fun.
I go to search & type in the names of who I'm subscribed to, every time.
Thank you for being here !
Thank you so much! 🥰
Hey Stephanie , I just turned 63 and my menopause symptoms are pretty bad. Long hard menopause runs in my family so I guess I drew the short straw. I loved this video it was natural informative and fun. I still need tutorials because as we age our faces are changing and I need to be able to change my application to keep my makeup looking flattering. I did like you chatting about what's going on in your life it made you more relatable. All the topics you used as examples I'm here for. I hope your ear gets better quickly. Your eye look was sophisticated. I hope you had a good Christmas. God bless you and yours. Lynne from Tx.✝️
Almost 54 and would love to hear more about the menopause subject! I have not been seeing any of your videos for the last 6 months and assumed you had slowed down with the amount of videos you were making. I heard another creator say that we have to click on our subscriptions to see your latest videos and this is the reason I am watching this video today.
47yr old here! I love this content. I love content about menopause and things that would apply to this stage in my life. I’m really trying to find products that apply to how my face is changing.
I've been a subscriber for about 2 years, and I've noticed that you have an incredible talent for spotting trends about 3 months before they explode, whether it's jewelry, fragrance, media, or Amazon finds. So many book/tv/film recommendations are spot on for my 56 year old self. Clothing as well. Also, regarding inflation, I think prestige beauty has hit a tipping point with what people will tolerate in pricing. We are less interested in the reviews because it is all less affordable; however, we're not really interested in heading to Walmart. Perhaps videos on "shop your stash", or 2025 looks with 2023 products, would catch more clicks.
Hi 👋🏼
I would definitely watch if you talk about menopause. I’m 42 and have no problems what I know so far. But I live watching bother makeup and health related videos ❤
Really loved this video, mainly because I’ve experienced so much of what you’ve been through. I enjoyed hearing the how and why about your skincare choices. Ditto for the makeup tutorial, but, the eye makeup lesson blew me away! Truly inspirational Stephanie. Thank you! ❤
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!
I would love to watch videos about perimenopause! I am pushing 50, so I am open to branching out on topics other than makeup. Go for it! I am interested in your thoughts on other topics.🎉❤
I enjoyed this. Real life talk is more helpful than tons of new makeup even though I watch all those too. You are always so thorough
I think chatting like this about perimenopause while you apply makeup is great! I'm 50 and I know nothing about it. 😊 I really don't know where to look.
I would LOVE to see more content on lifestyle, home decor, perimenopause and health, fashion etc. All beauty (for me) is getting a little bit boring for me at this stage of my life. I am actually trying to get my beauty routine kind of nailed down and buy less this year. Would love to see more of a dive into in office procedures, injectables etc.
I'd love any off topic videos! I'm a long time viewer and am also in your same age bracket. I've been currently educating myself about the natural transaction of perimenopause and knowing that you're not alone and openly hearing other’s experiences has been very helpful for me. Finding ways to explore and manage symptoms together can be eye opening. It can also help guide and learn when to talk with your healthcare provider about perimenopause/menopause so that you can get the most from your conversations with them. Love ya Stephanie!
At 50 years old, I am so sad for my younger self. She did not understand what was going on and didn't have any resources to help her understand how to take care of herself during the changes that were happening. I think a mix of chatting during reviews is great.
For a lot of us, UA-cam has replaced fashion & beauty magazines. So including subjects that aren't exclusively makeup makes sense to me. What I learned in the magazines helped me get through perimenopause, if only because I knew I wasn't the only one!
I love this kind of video. Definitely would like other topics. I’m 52 and it’s always great to hear other women going through the same things. Love to know how you’re doing as an empty nester. I know that was a big change in my life a couple years ago.
You can chat about what you like, i love beauty content but i listen to youtubers i like and dont really care the subjet. I’m almost 44 and i get it so much ❤
thanks for all you do! when i watch beauty UA-cam, i want to see the creator putting makeup on. i like to hear tips, tricks, and reviews and discussing topics like perimenopause, life updates, experiences, hair, fashion, decor, amazon, movies, books... adds interest. i don't have many ppl to talk to about makeup/skin care so channels like yours remind me of being younger (i'm 50) when my girlfriends & i would get ready together and have these types of conversations ❤ i don't watch videos that are exclusively about lips or fragrance, but i'm relatively sure i watch all of your content since I do access it through my subscription feed. happy new year! 🎉
Yes to whatever topic you want. Feeling something more real is so much preferred to feeling like you are being sold a product. I love your take on products and how thorough you are. But I also like this style of video. As a 50 yr old perimenopause is a real issue 😂😂 so I am always interested in how other people deal with the symptoms. I had to start going to my subscriptions page to see my favorites. And watching you scroll through yours we watch a lot of the same people. 😂
Adopt a dog who is already a few years old! Or a senior! There a so many lovely souls out there needing a home 🥲
Thank you so much for your variety of content. For me, it’s a happy, relaxing break. However, you and most all other yo tubers I love that do makeup tempt me to use and buy too much makeup. The result is spending more than I want, crowding bathroom drawers to the point where I need to declutter. I prefer the hacks you show and explain to help me better use what I already have. I also don’t mind at all when you and others share health struggles. I’m much older and have had many of my own, so it helps me feel a part of a community who can exchange experiences. Thanks you for all the time you devote to your channel for our benefit. Happy, healthy and prosperous 2025!
Personally i follow UA-camrs because I like the personality and i watch all of their content. ❤
Hope you’ll find out what’s happening with your hearing. Thank you for doing this video. So appreciate all you do😍❤️🥰😘
The same thing happened to my right ear at 50 and I was diagnosed with Meniere's Disease. My first episode (vertigo, hearing loss, tinnitus) happened during the pandemic and it since it took weeks to get into an ENT it was too late to get any hearing back with steroids. I hope it's not what you have as it's been quite debilitating. I've seen a few ENTs and none seem to know what causes it. I mentioned it to my Gyn and she is the only one to suggest that it could be menopause related and put me on HRT. I haven't had a vertigo episode since, though I am also taking betahistine which may be helping. Very curious to hear about your journey and wish you well.
I started using One Skin eye cream a little over a year ago. It's pricey! After the first bottle I swore I wouldn't buy it again but I could see such a difference without it that I caved and bought it again. Long story short, I just bought my 3rd bottle. It's not a magical wrinkle remover but it is so hydrating, smoothing and plumping.
I enjoy all of your videos and would be delighted to watch more GRWW like this one where you chat about a movie, music, daily topic, etc. I’m 53, so just staring menopause. I had my kids late (39-44) and missed some aspects of perimenopause or the symptoms were masked by pregnancy/post-pregnancy issues
I really appreciated your eye tutorial! Trying it. I like chatty videos. Talking about things other than just makeup interests me. Happy Holidays!
I like how many beauty channels are now adding lifestyle content as well. I like the variety.
56!🙋🏻♀️ I enjoy hearing that I'm not alone in the "Menopause Madness-verse"... Its truly heartfelt knowing I'm not alone. 😉🩷🎀 And so many products you've recommended have worked out fabulously for me!😊 I can no longer wear powdered eyeshadows due to allergies, allergy shots, etc.. so the Bobbi Brown & Laura Mercier eyeshadow have saved me from going bald on my eyes & I really appreciate you recommending them... they're so lovely! Definitely ordering more!🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼 If you ever have a chance, can you do a video on cream eyeshadow sticks? Now to find a cream bronzer & skin tint that won't bother my eyes as I'm so used to using powder bronzer in my crease!😒 Thanks Stephanie!❤️🥰💄💋👑
I’m a 60y Spanish women, and love your channel.
Hi Stephanie, This chatty GRWM was refreshing! To be honest, lately, I have felt like you tube etc is a big advertisement. Especially with the electronic devices. Am I the only one who is feeling overwhelmed with new this and new that..that's not why I watch you tube. A good mix of everything is fine. I hope you find out what's going on. 🤍
You're not alone. I (and many of my friends) have had this feeling of overwhelm lately. And we want to slow down a bit because of that. But we have to keep up too, so it's a hard balance! Just know that we feel you and are doing our best to work things out to create content you enjoy :)
@@StephanieMarie I know you will. You have introduced me to a lot of new make up and skin care I might not have tried. I appreciate your dedication, and I know I'm hearing the truth. Good, bad or indifferent. Your in-depth reviews along with your personality make your videos one of my go to's.I hope you're feeling better
You can talk about anything, I'll watch and comment.
Hi Stephanie. Love makeup tutorials, declutter videos, and GRWW with miscellaneous topics. 🩵😄
I am not fussy on what you talk about, I just like visiting with you for every video you share. I get notifications for all of my beauty gals. You can always count on me to be watching and liking even if I don't comment. I am 64 and went through menopause at 35. Sorry to hear about Luke, he was a real love. Happy Holidays to you and your family. Loves you❤
I would love the differ type chatty topic videos. I have recently gone through menopause. I had so many symptoms that I was going through and I had no idea what was happening to me. I wish some of the videos I was watching were talking about these things. It would have been so helpful to me. I really enjoy all of your videos.
The same hearing loss happened to me. Turns out I have Ménière’s disease. I truly hope that is NOT what you have. 🤞🏻
Sending good vibes to you. 🙏🏻
Came here to say the same. Cutting as much sodium as possible, no processed foods and exercise to keep circulation going. But basically cuttting out all sodium and asking for no salt on foods at restaurant. Severe vertigo went with my hearing loss. No attacks anymore since cutting sodium.
Hi Stephanie, I definitely would watch perimenopause/menopause content on your channel. Specifically interested in HRT, nutrition, and female best-aging strategies. Thanks!
Hi Stephanie. Yes, would love to see more videos about perimenopause. I feel like this subject is still rather new for the “official” medical providers and I can get more tips from other fellow ladies and get their honest testimonials and tips on how to deal with all the havoc that menopause brings in. And on this note, I’d love to share with you and anybody who is dealing with sleep problems. Please give Magnesium Glycinate a try. I started taking it before bed 2 years ago and never looked back. Even on the nights when I forget to take it I still get a restful sleep. I take around 350 mg a night. And one more thing: a weighted blanket. Have you tried it? It’s such a relief when you feel stressed and your body temperature fluctuates. Cheers!
I really enjoyed this chatty GRWM ❤
Love this style of video, Stephanie!! Please do more this year. Maybe twice a month. Nice to get to know you moreMerry Christmas!!❤️🎄
I was thinking of doing these regularly! It's something I haven't been doing and would like to start 💖
