finally an actual minimalist makeup routine! so many others on youtube use heaps of products and brushes and stuff but as someone whos just starting out wearing makeup, i dont wanna have to buy heaps of things. i just wanna know the basics, so thankyou!

Just discovered your channel and I absolutely adore your tips! Sending love from the Bay Area ✨

A lot of videos why you should quit social media and totally agree. Especially the narcissistic and toxic Facebook. CZcams it’s also social media but in a decent different way and more informative

Where are you going after?? I’m in malaysia auf you need tips / help!!

Immediately loved ur vibe happy to be subscriber number 600 🎉❤

Hi Amanda! Do you think spraying an alcohol based perfume into a nonscented lotion will give the same affect as an oil perfume? Since you’re mixing it with a lotion to tone it down? Thank you so much for this video, it makes so much sense! I could never do spray perfumes, however, I’ve always loved oils.

Just started yesterday wish me luck

This is such a nice video! Also, don’t feel alone in not being able to use social media in a healthy way. I’d say you’re one of the few who are being self-aware and honest with themselves!

Good video

Thanks Amanda! You know I have not been using Instagram for 2y. Because of time wasting. Now could better focus on my goals and hobbies. :)

I rejoined instagram a year ago to be part of the bookstagram community because I am such a bookworm and love being able to talk about books. But…. I’m too sensitive for social media. It bothers me how comfortable people are being so disrespectful online. I take it personal even when it’s not directed at me lol I stay with CZcams because I like videos, but I don’t miss instagram or any of those other social media platforms.

That’s very powerful! Congrats

You look so much like Bridget mendler

Hi can I have your email or social media platform for contact? For a business Purpose.

That sounds like me 😮

my screen time used to be almost 12 hours a day too. about t6-8 hours was on TikTok, and the rest was on instagram and reddit. I have since deleted TikTok, but instagram reels have become a massive problem for me now and my screen time is creeping back up. today I deleted Facebook and reddit from my phone and I can only use the website versions on my computer or iPad. instagram is going to be the biggest one for me now. I have set a 1 hour time limit per day, so I can still use it but if I want it to last throughout the day, I have to be more mindful about how I use it. I read the book Digital Minimalism last year which encouraged me to delete TikTok, but I think I may read it again to remind myself of why I'm doing this.

Its me a 24 years old spending 13-15 hours online And im starting to get over it But the point is now im 24 years old spending 13 hours watching videos about life without social media 🙂

So excited because I'm one month in after deactivating my accounts and plan on not using it rest of the summer and then after 7 months is up I'm going go back and delete them.😊

Love the idea, not a fan of giving bf the reigns over your phone setting tho.. Partners aren’t always forever:/

I love this video ! I realized from "digital detox" that I have done recently that what you consume is really the "reality" that you live in !and it is toxic to live life that you have seen on social media if that is not making you feel present. I mean I am talking to myself really on this haha, but I think this is like an ongoing battle that you could have with yourself. Thank you so much for such a beautiful reminder to live your healthy life xx

I deleted social media because im constantly comparing myself to others for every little thing! Im proud of myself and I plan on deleting CZcams and Pinterest!

I just cannot wait to meet a girl who does NOT live on social media. I will marry her right away 😂

i’m stunned, you manage to speak to every worry and emotion i’ve and still have during college (i’m a junior now)!!! You rock!!!

You're so so pretty

Congrats ! I deleted my instagram 2 months ago. Am strongly considering doing the same w Facebook now. Thankfully, I never joined tik tok. I’d rather hear about my friends’ lives directly from them , instead of via a post. Joined FB in …. 2007 ! WHAT ? 17 yrs of my life on FB ? Several hours a day ? The books I could have read ! The time I could have spent w people… The work outs I could have done. The music I could have played & listened to. The volunteer eirk I could have done. The meals I couid have made. On & on !! I don’t watch or read mainstream news, & news is important to me & I get it from groups on FB. But itz also overstimulating. I used to be more creative. Thank you for this. Liz

You're doing great! Keep going 💪

we were given a drug called short form content and now everyone is addicted, though no one will admit they are

Personally I can’t see myself quitting because I just can’t. I can’t cope with the boredom and I have no idea what I can be doing for 8-16 hours a day. And how do I even make friends if I can’t follow them on insta?

I feel so seen, thank you ❤

hey! i’m watching this after watching the social media addiction video you made (i also really have struggled with this and i’m considering deleting everything) but really enjoyed this video too! i’m also trying out the digital nomad life and was in guatemala and argentina over the winter! i’m 24 y/o female and planning to travel for the rest of 2024 and a little into 2025, always looking for fellow female digital nomads to connect with!! :)

Content casino is a great name for it

I am trying to do this as well, first week. Really helpful to get your prospective 🤗

What shaving cream is your fav?

Hey Amanda, really nice video ! I was wondering if I could help you with Best Quality Editing in your videos better than your Editor with good pricing and also make a highly engaging Thumbnail which will help your videos to reach to a wider audience ? Pls let me know what do you think ?

!! This is what ive been looking for. I could NEVER stand the smell of perfume but so badly have been looking for my signature scent. The only 2 scents i ever loved were oil based. Thanks for the info :)

I've deleted all my instagram accounts today. Hoping to never get back to that crappy feeling. Wish me Luck!

Thanks for this video. Subbed. Keep making content Amanda! ❤

I really relate to that feeling of not being able to use social media in a healthy way, my screen time was absurdly high when I was using it as well which was destroying my ability to be present and productive. Massive congrats for getting off it! I am currently a couple of weeks off it and already feeling calmer, more present and less stimulated. I know it'll be hard when I travel as the urge to brag/seek validation is so real! Thanks for sharing :)

, 😗😗💕

I need help! I’m addicted to CZcams, can you make a video on hobbies you developed after quitting social media? Thank you!😢

Boiling frog effect.

I was definitely addicted to Facebook for a while. I've been off that for about a year now, but my new addiction is definitely youtube. I'm gonna have to work on that.

I’ve come to this realization as well. Any type of alcohol based perfume gives me a headache almost instantly (my Chanel Madmoiselle is the worst!) I ordered a scent discovery set from Riddle and didn’t realize they were oil based. I applied them and didn’t get a headache! That’s when I figured it out! So I’ve been on the hunt for other oil based/solid perfumes. Riddle has some great ones (Ex is my personal favorite) I hear Nest is oil based. Also, Etsy perfumers have tons of oil based ones too! I’ve also come to realize that certain scents trigger it as well. Pure florals especially rose I cannot stand, or anything with a dense scent profile. More than three scent notes and I’m dizzy. So I stick to simple perfumes with a less heavy profile.

Clear informations, thanks a lot <3

I really want to quit social media so bad, I have an addiction with TikTok but not sure where to even start. What do you do when you’re bored??

thank you for this video ... as a person with 11+ hours of social media usage I felt represented with this video and I got hope that I can change my situation too .. this video was also so relaxing ... keep posting <3

I love itt

Baccarat rouge 450 gives me headache. All perfumes give headache only blue perfumes works for me

If you'd like a counterpoint, look into Ray Peat

I quit social media to post video on social media about quitting social media.
