    My red flags are the "run, dont walk" short form videos to get such and such product and product reveals woth filters. This always has me suspicious like "what are you trying to hide." The last two years I've been buying less and getting out of this mindset, and it feels good. Because I realised that often times we talk ourselves into new products without having the full scope on it. Another red flag area are "innovative new formulas" kind of products. When it comes to formulas, at this point, we've almost hit the roof. Theres just so much that can be innovative. Why try to make it better if it works.

    24h claims are a green flag for me because I’m in theatre and I need my glam stage makeup to last through all my sweating and costume changes. I don’t expect them to actually last that long, but if they have moveability, there’s a high chance I’ll ruin something when I wipe my sweat or I’ll get stuff on my costumes.

    I think it could be a good idea if a brand released one of those puff products with interchangeable puffs that you clean. You would be able to replace the dirty one with a spare, and clean it. This way you can still use the product and dont have to worry about leaving the product open while the tip is being cleaned.

  • @danicee

    The only reason I look for the 12-hour claim is because I have very oily skin and those foundations tend to last a solid 8 hours for me, which is ideal for events and parties, but not work. I don’t have the patience to touch up my face while I’m working. Also, I think minis are a scam, just get travel size containers and repackage skincare and makeup like that.

    You are SO RIGHT about extra longwear claims. I'd rather be able to blend a product in if it's moved, than have it stuck looking patchy or dry.
    Really the only thing that I need to last is my eyeshadow and there are so many good eyeshadow primers that make my eye makeup last for 14 hours or more.
    I don't need 24 hours. I'm not awake that long and I cannot stand to wear makeup that long.

    Regarding that summer fantasy with product ads, I am realistically sweating my ovaries off! What I want is a pencil style gel liner that locks down. Kaleidos and NYX do some of the most colourful examples. Once they are on and dried down, I can walk into the fires of Hell itself and they are with me all the way. That's all want 😆 My face is seeing sunblock and reapplying sunblock, so I don't need bronzers or blush or highlighters and god forbid I try anything foundation related, it melts on contact. So I can cheerfully ignore all that summer fantasy.
    Regarding thick eye shadows, the older you go, the less viable they are. Even the most genetically perfect specimen succumbs to gravity. So thinner formulas are less likely to roll up in your crease 👍🏻

    Lauren, I’m actually thrilled to see your beautiful hair. It’s healthy and I see significant progress in both fullness and growth. Such a darling shade, as well. Perfect baby blonde Bob. ❤

    Always love to see a new video! I agree on the gritty lip gloss-- I SWEAR we fixed that years ago. I remember picking up a lip gloss at Walmart before 2020 that had glitter but wasn't gritty. I couldn't tell you what it was now, but I don't understand how they're back to feeling like sand.
    P.S.: You look incredible in this video! There's something about the eye-catching 'V' shape created by the barrettes, your eyes, and the red lip that I can't look away from! So well-proportioned. I hope you are well and have a good valentine's day 🥰❤

    Fully agree with you abt the short form content thing. I personally love shorts for stuff like "Here's all the shades of x lip gloss!" "This product got reformulated and isn't the same anymore!" "Here's all the cool brown lip glosses that I've tried!" because these are all things you can say in a minute. I don't need ten minutes to see all the swatches of the new elf lip oil. I don't need ten minutes to see if a brown lip gloss pulls orange. Full reviews? Heck nah, but for a first look into something, they're amazing.

    I’m using the Byroe $80 kiwi cleanser and it’s great! I got it from Ipsy for $12. I’ll 💯 rebuy it for $12- there’s no way I’m spending full price.
    I hate anything that says it has 24hr wear because I find all of those formulas really drying and they don’t look good-like those old ABH liquid lipsticks-great it lasts forever, but my lips look and feel like the Sahara!
