Yup. I learned that from the wonderful orc, Nikki Raven. Now, whenever I see the bright blue color corrector, I think of her and all the awesome olive-toned people who hopefully had more products open up for them.
i'm usually meh on Lunar New Year releases as an Asian American woman, it always feels like a cash grab because there's almost little representation of asian models in their campaigns and the tones for the Lunar New Year releases never match the skin tones they try and sell to.
suchhhh a cash grab, it's almost always just products from the permanent line repackaged vs taking the opportunity to cater to asian customers. even asian brands seem to have shade ranges that cater more to white skin and cut off darker asian skin tones, it really is a shame that so few brands lean in to the nuances of colour that suit asian skin tones the best. the brand i can think of that does this the best is Suqqu
Yeah, even the pmg collection for 2023--the quad is voyeuristic vixen so it's just repackaged. The beautylish brush drop is kinda cute but still a cash grab
Mostly I am disappointed in this years releases because NONE of them incorporate rabbit imagery (which is my zodiac animal!!!!) so sad because brands could have easily won me over if they bothered.... I was really looking forward to cute bunny themed releases
My solution for Tom Ford cherry smoke is to promise myself to gorge myself with warm, amazing fresh cherries next to a campfire next summer. That’s what I really want 😂❤
Holy Yess!!! The actual thing is giving yourself the actual fantasy the perfume is utilizing to sell. Absolutely. What a great take!! Me too. Buckets of cherries by the fire. Yum.
I used to manage a Tom Ford counter and have a bunch of bottles/lab samples that sit unused in my closet trove. Let me know if you have a P.O. box or something and have sentimental and/or intellectual interest in trying a few more of the TF scents, I would be thrilled to send them to someone who would use them!
My makeup collection is mostly made up of minis because (1) it’s cheaper and (2) I actually use up the products and feel better about my small makeup splurges 😊 If I REALLY love something, then I splurge on the full size product, but, that’s just me!
Yes! I adore your hot takes! Happy 2023! ✨ The blue color corrector can be useful to transform yellow leaning foundations to make them more olive depending on the skin tone since blue + yellow makes green. Here in Brazil there is a makeup artist that is a specialist in color theory in makeup, she really opened my mind to this kind of tool to work with different undertones to achieve a great base and look.
I just wanna add to the convo and say that while ELF has just released some color correctors, the drugstore brand LA Girl has some wonderful color correcting concealer AND some foundation mixing pigments, too (and there is a blue is both formulas!)
I would love to see Hannah play around with these color correcting pigments with her foundation so she can finally get a foundation shade to properly match her skin!
One of my proudest moments and deepest shames is the time I cleared a Chicago city bus because I was wearing a sample of Oud Wood. I can't imagine the havoc one could stir up with Cherry Smoke, what an absolute legend.
As a light olive, I’m so interested in that blue CC - I feel like a dot of that in my deeper/too orangey foundations will immediately neutralise them to a more more muted tone 👀
@@leo0986 I’m in the UK too ☺️ I think I found it on Beauty Base it’s called a mixing pigment. Their green colour corrector is also my favourite and you can get that on Amazon if you’re on the hunt for one.
The Pat McGrath quad is a reissue. I have the original and it’s one of my fave quads from her. I bought one of the Tilbury highlighters for science on my channel. Kosas is a brand I have come to love as well.
"Nothing could be better than what I already have." What a wonderful place to be! And if you feel that way, knowing your makeup taste as well as you do, it's probably true. If a new, shiny thing IS better, it would likely be so marginally better as to not make any real difference in your enjoyment. Take it from someone who's spent days looking for the "perfect" makeup item, just to realize I already owned the exact thing I wanted, in all it's luxurious glory. In all likelihood, the new thing wouldn't be quite as good and I'd feel silly for buying it.
Color correcting was super popular like 10 years ago on CZcams and faded away in popularity for the most part. It’s interesting to see the products come back on CZcams lol. Almost every company had/has correctors in palettes, packaged like concealer, or sticks, but I’m interested to see how much better these newer products are. I think elf used to or still has a palette, but it wasn’t super great…maybe the blue can help offset some of my foundations so I don’t have a giant bottle of blue sitting on my vanity. 😂
Oooo I'm very excited to see you review the Elf color correctors! The green obviously, but I think the other fair colors would be interesting and helpful, too. 😸💜🌻
As others have mentioned, the blue elf colour corrector is something I'm super interested in because I use blue to counteract orange / peach tones and also desaturate foundation to make them more olive. It's a super useful tool if I like a foundation's finish, blue instantly makes it more olive and neutral. I too have the la girl one but it's a bit faffy to use because of the pump. I like the idea of swiping this one directly on the face to mix with any base product 😊
ELF already has a green color correcting face primer in a sort of a gel-cream formula that works pretty well on me - although it's a product that looks WILDLY different in the container vs out of the container. It comes out of the tube almost olive green and I did a complete double-take when I used it. I agree with you that color correctors suddenly seem to be everywhere, and my memory of them from the 80s was as these strange, sticky, one-off products, languishing at the bottom of a "FINAL SALE" bin at Drug Emporium. Formulas and technology have come a long way baby!😄
That Natasha Denona highlighter unfortunately isn't even color shifting, though the marketing does it's best to make it almost appear as if it is! Theresa's reaction live swatch reaction was my fave I think, I think she felt that she got duped 😂 It does look super gorgeous though!!
Multichrome highlighters are the next big thing mainstream brands should be touching on True holo never caught on for some reason, blush is losing steam as a "main trend" so I think it'll swing into either more soft glow powders or duochromatic shifts Kaleidos' prophecy & Blackmoon's moonlighters are the only ones that have interested me so far, and I love em
@@ashleycox5316 not yet but since there aren't many on the market I figured I'd get it if it's available when I order again. My favourite color is lime so I'm quite content for now anyway haha I just really like kaleidos' formulas so it would be fun to try more 👀
You summed it up perfectly with soft clothes and hard clothes. It’s too January for hard clothes. I also want to slip ‘What’re you talking about, Natasha?’ into my daily vocab
I love your rationality about whether to buy or not. Your point about appreciating a product but not needing to buy it stuck in my head. Its a much appreciated reminder to consume with my eyes and not my wallet!
I feel like so many more colour correctors need to enter the market, so many of the green ones are too milky or mint leaning. I’ve used a blue colour corrector from LA girl in my foundations that are too yellow leaning, they do help pull it to neutral.
On a no-buy too for certain makeup products. Not even tempted by what has come out so far. I bought Natasha Denona Glam and Retro Glam Black Friday and have so many other eyes (depotted, singles and in palettes) that I really have everything I need. I wouldn't put it past me to buy another Natasha Denona palette in the future if the color story is something I really like because I do like her formulas in both palettes I have. I had mini Love, but I gave that away. It's just not my color story and I wasn't using it much, so there's a lesson.
TF Cherry smoke is a temptress. Osmanthus smells a bit of apricot to me, love it. I have a cherry by the fire smell I adore. Dreams of getting ahold of a sample.
I picked up the green and blue ELF color correctors with the idea of using the blue to mix in with a foundation that is too yellow! Also, I’m excited to try the green corrector. I’ve noticed I have only felt the need to apply a foundation to cover up redness. My redness feels way more prominent as my skin has become its most translucent shade with the winter season. It’s my first time trying a corrector but figured for $4, it is a good place to start.
The release that got me most excited recently is the Colourpop x Winx Club collection. I was a HUGE Winx Club fan as a kid and for literally years at this point I've been saying I want a good makeup collab, and Colourpop did it! The pastel, glittery Winx collection of my dreams! I bought a good chunk of the collection (though not all of it!) and I can't wait to treasure each and every piece! I think another way your philosophy of "only the best in my collection" helps is when that best comes along, I can buy the products excitedly absolutely guilt free and know I'm going to give them the love they deserve!
I have a pale olive skintone, but I’m very muted (desaturated) and a little bit cool, which makes blue perfect for me. Combined with the yellow that exists in all foundations, it creates some green, which I need, but the blue also desaturates the final tone, which I also need. So long as a foundation isn’t too yellow, blue can make anything match me-I use the LA girl blue mixer every day, because every foundation, apart from certain Korean products, is too saturated for me.
Hannah! The Sephora favourites perfect pout lip has the FULL size rare beauty liner along with the CT Pillow talk. It’s an incredible deal considering you pay less for the full size products and get to try minis as well. ❤❤❤
I bought the Sephora lip favorite. It’s great. Great products, great value. The minis are not the usual pill sized minis, which I also find annoying, but rather a super deluxe mini size. The Nars and Clinique are almost like a normal sized lipstick. Almost. The packaging is cheap plastic but the size is good and feels like I’m using a regular lipstick bullet. The only real mini is the Laneige. It’s a deluxe size blister pack of balm :/ I actually found the sizes perfect because I can never go thru an entire lipstick so the sizes are perfect.
The Natasha denona mini nude palette is my perfect everyday palette, the bronze in that palette is so exceptional at being a dirty warm bronze, and it can be a one and done.
I would love to see a review of the Nars Powder. They used to make a mega pale shade called Snow. A weird teenage part of my heart still misses that powder lol
I actively like mini baby lip products 😂 they are easier to empty, and I don’t feel as guilty buying a few because I’m going to use them up. Plus, they’re cuter because they’re tiny!
I so love how you decluttered and love what you have! It’s fun too see the new stuff and talk about why we don’t need it. I especially love the perfume sample idea. I want to declutter and give away two perfumes that I never wear. I feel so guilty about it. Therefore, next time I’ll just get a sample :)
Happy 2023 Hannah. Don't dream about the ND highlighter. There is not a hint of green or pink once you apply it to your face. It's just a pale gold highlighter. Nice but nothing special :-)
I have been chiming in and binging your content every few months since you started this channel. I absolutely adore your literary, artsy, urban-bohemian, be-who-you-are, enhance-your-own-beauty approach to beautiful things and life in general. You are extremely well spoken and you teach me new words every time I indulge a binge! It is just so exhillerating to see that you are nearing a hundered thousand subs. I don't even know you, but I feel so proud of you. Keep being yourself forever! You inspire me a lot and I wanna thank you for that. (Sorry for any grammar or vocabulary mistakes. English is my second language. Okay, love your hair, hope you win! Byee!)
+1 for a review of the NARS powder! I feel like powders sometimes don't get enough coverage on CZcams. I get that on the face of it they're less exciting than coloured cosmetics, but ON MY face they offer some exciting possibilities so I'm always interested.
NARS needs a Schiap collection where they team up with the Shiaperarelli fashion brand and they do a Shocking Pink collection. They are sitting on a historic gold mine and I want to see it
i'm guilty of watching your content without subscribing but i am addicted. your approach towards makeup and how sure you are of your likes and dislikes is so unbelievably helpful for indecisive people like me. i'm so in awe of how you view things and i've been keeping the concept of "my precious" when i want new makeup and also towards my existing collection. and yes i have subbed obviously. you're quickly becoming my favorite beauty youtuber!💗Also, Happy New Year Hannah😄
I saw that Tom Ford bottle and ended my focaccia bread video to see what its about. I love Tom Ford perfume!! I only own one sample of Oud Wood because Im oud broke.😢😅
I’d be really interested in your review of the nars powder. I’m also trying to understand powders better, especially as someone with a lot of the same skin factors as you (pale, dry, redness). Do it! 😊
hi hannah! fairly new subscriber, but i bought the salt NY sneaky balm specifically because of your rec - it's coming tomorrow and i'm super excited to try it! i took advantage of their buy 3 get 3 that they had recently. can't wait!
I ordered the ELF peach and the green color correctors. I use a peach color corrector under my eyes EVERY day before concealer. Otherwise nothing covers the darkness. I haven’t noticed the redness in my face creeping through most foundations, but I want to try the green in a few spots to see if it helps (like around my nostrils and on the balls of my cheeks!
I was almost out of my NYX green color corrector and the news of the elf one came at the best time in this video! I’m intrigued and excited to see if the green is slightly warmer than the NYX version when mine arrives.
They say blue is a neutralizer for foundation that might be too warm. I have to say I went in store and that Nars cheek is BOMB! The formula is the difference very vibrant and smooth w/ out the glitter 🥰
I also love Bitter Peach. Got it for half price at the Cosmetics Company Store. I also bought a couple of TF quads 70% off! Dossier fragrances makes their own affordable versions of many good fragrances. They have one for Lost Cherry for under $50. They refund your money if you don’t like the fragrance. 😊
I use blue mixing pigment to reduce the saturation of my foundations if they lean too pink or orange on me. I’m also a grey girl. I basically don’t need a green colour corrector now because I own this blue mixer. And reduces the amount of layers of base even further. I highly suggest you try.
mac studio fix powder is the absolute gold standard of powder foundations to mask the texture of a blemish, i really really recommend it and have used it for that exact purpose for over 5 years!! i would say maybe go to a mac counter and get them to test a couple of different shades on you since the shade is so important for this kind of product!
I laughed way too hard at the extreme distaste for mini bullet lipsticks. I realized I hate their existence and wish it would stop, while trying to fish it out of my drawer to declutter it. This went on for several minutes.
Welcome back! Osmanthus is tea olive. One of my favorite fragrances; have them planted in strategic places around the patio. But $300+ is WAY outside my budget. Especially since I tend to go “nose blind” with fragrance after I wear it for a while. Hmmmm.
I own a rabbit and I love her to pieces. 2023 is the year of the rabbit, and all these rabbit releases are coming for my wallet! 😅 I don’t need any of them though.
Osmanthus smells similar to peach. And I too love bitter peach. I have a sample I am savouring and eventually I want a bottle but not anytime soon. And good tip on concealing blemishes I definitely need that right about now.
OMG the bit about TF Cherry Smoke, because SAME. I own Santal Blush, Soleil Brulant, and Ebene Fume because they are within that smoky incense wood family where Ebene Fume actually has Palo Santo in it---Be still my heart. So when I got the email for the new Cherry line with a smoky one, I gasped.
Fun to have you back! I second that I love your eye look today and would love to see how you created it. I have hooded/protruding eyes and this looks really doable for me…
I read a few reviews about cherry smoke and many say that you only get cherry in the first 5 mins. Tom Ford fragrances are overpriced for how they perform
I love Lost Cherry… have been into it for a long time. Charlotte Tilbury, albeit a very expensive brand, I support as she has great tones for olive skin. Both foundation and concealer which is amazing. Only her, Lisa Eldridge and partially Nars (concealer) cater to my light olive skin tone so well. ❤
I like MAC tbh the products ALWAYS perform like you expect them too. They have some flops but they have so man products that are ESSENTIAL Girl you better open your horizons 😭😭
Every year at the end of December, I take a hard look at my makeup collection and I see how great it is and that I don’t know how much I’ll actually buy the next year. And I buy that load of hot garbage that I just told myself every year. Every year. Because by January, my boots are already shaking, and by February, I’m already starting to set up what I’m going to buy during the Sephora VIB sale. I haven’t bought anything yet but we’re not even in the double digits of January yet. I really like these videos though
No, ELF did have several color correctors, years ago (8,9?). A similar form to the new one, color-correcting setting powders in cool & warm (I had both), several correcting primers in pump bottles, and a color-correcting cream compact with four shades, which I also had-- the compact came in two sets of 4 shades each, like the powders. I've long since tossed it, but still have the Cool correcting powder compact, which I just crushed to dust to use loose for my under-eyes; this had four shades you'd swirl together or use separately. So I guess they're getting back to this, but they did not just jump on the trend. As for the rest of this stuff, I feel more or less the same way as you, except that there's one Mac lipstick I'd love, but I have 1 so similar, I'm not buying their twin.
That Kosas baked blush looks like a bronzer in the picture. I am intrigued by the e.l.f. color correctors, especially the pink and yellow. (Incidentally, the pink and the green were giving me Exa corrector vibes.)
Really great video. Would love to know if you color your hair? It’s gorgeous and if so what brand and color. Beautiful look and hope you do a get ready with me on it!! Gorgeous
When I think of a cherry scent I basically want something along the lines of the smell of the Jergens cherry almond lotion. That’s what I want. That smell in a bottle. 😂
New subscriber -- I need Hannah to talk me out of buying more beauty releases in 2023...and you started out strong! It made me sad that I've accumulated too many impulse buy beauty products over the past year.
Only reason I’m pro mini lip products is my mom got me the Bobby brown mini crushed lip trio for Christmas with the buff lipstick, beautiful. And I’m glad I got to try them!
On the listing, it says it’s meant to be mixed with foundation (not placed in isolation on the face) to change it to a cooler tone, if the foundation in question is too warm. Very similar to what you did with the Salt New York crème tints. In short, more of a mixing medium than an actual color corrector.
I have never bought anything from Nars and the blush quad is very appealing to me, BUT, I have a quad of blushes from Ofra in a Makeup Geek 9 pan palette and it looks exactly like it. So, I love it, but I basically already own it.
Happy new year! The colour of that hoodie is giving me life! Also I would love a perfume video from you. Maybe try a bunch of samples or smell a bunch and give us a perfume review of sorts? That’s the video I didn’t know I needed until you talked about Cherry Smoke. Also the only mini lipsticks I like are the Mac ones and the Tom Ford ones! Very good packaging and I can never fully finish lipsticks. But other than that I generally also hate mini lip products!
I am also greatly interested in color correctors after doing a number on my skin over the holidays, mainly in anxiety-filled skin picking. RIP the relatively clear skin I had a month ago
I picked up the blue color correct or because about a week before this was released. I saw a CZcams short about how you can fix concealers or foundation base products of any kind that are for example to Orange leaning or to warm leaning and I have Colton skin so some brands I can’t even find a foundation that works for me but anyway, the blue Offsets the worms so that’s personally what I picked it up for
Blue color corrector is an olive-undertone person’s dream. It can be used to make all the too warm/orange foundations usable for many olives. 💚
Came here to say exactly this!
I did not know this! Super interesting and helpful! Thanks for sharing 😃👍🏼
Yes!! LA Girl has a blue foundation mixer that is my savior
Yup. I learned that from the wonderful orc, Nikki Raven. Now, whenever I see the bright blue color corrector, I think of her and all the awesome olive-toned people who hopefully had more products open up for them.

Hannah! The Sephora favourites perfect pout lip has the FULL size rare beauty liner along with the CT Pillow talk. It’s an incredible deal considering you pay less for the full size products and get to try minis as well. ❤❤❤
I bought the Sephora lip favorite. It’s great. Great products, great value. The minis are not the usual pill sized minis, which I also find annoying, but rather a super deluxe mini size. The Nars and Clinique are almost like a normal sized lipstick. Almost. The packaging is cheap plastic but the size is good and feels like I’m using a regular lipstick bullet. The only real mini is the Laneige. It’s a deluxe size blister pack of balm :/ I actually found the sizes perfect because I can never go thru an entire lipstick so the sizes are perfect.
The Natasha denona mini nude palette is my perfect everyday palette, the bronze in that palette is so exceptional at being a dirty warm bronze, and it can be a one and done.
I would love to see a review of the Nars Powder. They used to make a mega pale shade called Snow. A weird teenage part of my heart still misses that powder lol
Your thumbnails are looking particularly lux lately and I’m a fan 💖
I actively like mini baby lip products 😂 they are easier to empty, and I don’t feel as guilty buying a few because I’m going to use them up. Plus, they’re cuter because they’re tiny!
I so love how you decluttered and love what you have! It’s fun too see the new stuff and talk about why we don’t need it. I especially love the perfume sample idea. I want to declutter and give away two perfumes that I never wear. I feel so guilty about it. Therefore, next time I’ll just get a sample :)
I only lobe minis for my work bag. I put all the minis there and use them up totally
Happy 2023 Hannah. Don't dream about the ND highlighter. There is not a hint of green or pink once you apply it to your face. It's just a pale gold highlighter. Nice but nothing special :-)
“I’d rather smell like a bonfire.” You are my people.
My favorite single shadow look is the nars orgasm blush
I have been chiming in and binging your content every few months since you started this channel. I absolutely adore your literary, artsy, urban-bohemian, be-who-you-are, enhance-your-own-beauty approach to beautiful things and life in general. You are extremely well spoken and you teach me new words every time I indulge a binge! It is just so exhillerating to see that you are nearing a hundered thousand subs. I don't even know you, but I feel so proud of you. Keep being yourself forever! You inspire me a lot and I wanna thank you for that. (Sorry for any grammar or vocabulary mistakes. English is my second language. Okay, love your hair, hope you win! Byee!)
+1 for a review of the NARS powder! I feel like powders sometimes don't get enough coverage on CZcams. I get that on the face of it they're less exciting than coloured cosmetics, but ON MY face they offer some exciting possibilities so I'm always interested.
NARS needs a Schiap collection where they team up with the Shiaperarelli fashion brand and they do a Shocking Pink collection. They are sitting on a historic gold mine and I want to see it
Oh I love the differentiation between soft and hard clothes. I’ve never thought about it that way
Neutrogena has had sunscreen lipglosses for years! They’re really cute and in nice colors
i'm guilty of watching your content without subscribing but i am addicted. your approach towards makeup and how sure you are of your likes and dislikes is so unbelievably helpful for indecisive people like me. i'm so in awe of how you view things and i've been keeping the concept of "my precious" when i want new makeup and also towards my existing collection. and yes i have subbed obviously. you're quickly becoming my favorite beauty youtuber!💗Also, Happy New Year Hannah😄
I saw that Tom Ford bottle and ended my focaccia bread video to see what its about. I love Tom Ford perfume!! I only own one sample of Oud Wood because Im oud broke.😢😅
😂 You too as I just heard you say. 😂
Need a tutorial on how you did your eyes! Such a pretty everyday look 😍
I’d be really interested in your review of the nars powder. I’m also trying to understand powders better, especially as someone with a lot of the same skin factors as you (pale, dry, redness). Do it! 😊
hi hannah! fairly new subscriber, but i bought the salt NY sneaky balm specifically because of your rec - it's coming tomorrow and i'm super excited to try it! i took advantage of their buy 3 get 3 that they had recently. can't wait!
I ordered the ELF peach and the green color correctors. I use a peach color corrector under my eyes EVERY day before concealer. Otherwise nothing covers the darkness. I haven’t noticed the redness in my face creeping through most foundations, but I want to try the green in a few spots to see if it helps (like around my nostrils and on the balls of my cheeks!
I was almost out of my NYX green color corrector and the news of the elf one came at the best time in this video! I’m intrigued and excited to see if the green is slightly warmer than the NYX version when mine arrives.
I kind of really love your look today. The glam and jewelry with the very casual hoodie, it’s working for me. ✨
Despise mini’s? I remember during your no buy year you were so happy to get some mini samples. So interesting to see how things have changed now.
They say blue is a neutralizer for foundation that might be too warm. I have to say I went in store and that Nars cheek is BOMB! The formula is the difference very vibrant and smooth w/ out the glitter 🥰
I also love Bitter Peach. Got it for half price at the Cosmetics Company Store. I also bought a couple of TF quads 70% off! Dossier fragrances makes their own affordable versions of many good fragrances. They have one for Lost Cherry for under $50. They refund your money if you don’t like the fragrance. 😊
Can you please film an updated makeup collection video? I would love to see the result of your viscous decluttering!
I use blue mixing pigment to reduce the saturation of my foundations if they lean too pink or orange on me. I’m also a grey girl. I basically don’t need a green colour corrector now because I own this blue mixer. And reduces the amount of layers of base even further. I highly suggest you try.
Happy new year, Hannah! I've been waiting for the opportunity to comment that I'd love a perfume video from you. Things you've worn/tested lately etc☺
Hope you and Joe enjoyed your break! Merry belated Christmas!
One of my favorite series to watch
mac studio fix powder is the absolute gold standard of powder foundations to mask the texture of a blemish, i really really recommend it and have used it for that exact purpose for over 5 years!! i would say maybe go to a mac counter and get them to test a couple of different shades on you since the shade is so important for this kind of product!
I laughed way too hard at the extreme distaste for mini bullet lipsticks. I realized I hate their existence and wish it would stop, while trying to fish it out of my drawer to declutter it. This went on for several minutes.
we definitely need a video with your favourite perfumes
Welcome back! Osmanthus is tea olive. One of my favorite fragrances; have them planted in strategic places around the patio. But $300+ is WAY outside my budget. Especially since I tend to go “nose blind” with fragrance after I wear it for a while. Hmmmm.
I own a rabbit and I love her to pieces. 2023 is the year of the rabbit, and all these rabbit releases are coming for my wallet! 😅 I don’t need any of them though.
Osmanthus smells similar to peach. And I too love bitter peach. I have a sample I am savouring and eventually I want a bottle but not anytime soon. And good tip on concealing blemishes I definitely need that right about now.
The colour of your sweater looks really good on you 😊
OMG the bit about TF Cherry Smoke, because SAME. I own Santal Blush, Soleil Brulant, and Ebene Fume because they are within that smoky incense wood family where Ebene Fume actually has Palo Santo in it---Be still my heart. So when I got the email for the new Cherry line with a smoky one, I gasped.
Fun to have you back! I second that I love your eye look today and would love to see how you created it. I have hooded/protruding eyes and this looks really doable for me…
I love a mini when the product is hard to finish like blush or lipstick. Ama check it out 🙈
Ooh yes! Would love a review of the nars powder
I read a few reviews about cherry smoke and many say that you only get cherry in the first 5 mins. Tom Ford fragrances are overpriced for how they perform
I love Lost Cherry… have been into it for a long time. Charlotte Tilbury, albeit a very expensive brand, I support as she has great tones for olive skin. Both foundation and concealer which is amazing. Only her, Lisa Eldridge and partially Nars (concealer) cater to my light olive skin tone so well. ❤
Lost Cherry is so good
Love your hot takes! Love your insight! Here’s to 2023 and more of your witty content!🥰👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😍🤩💕
I’d love to see you test the Nara power! Does that help your decision 😂❤
I like MAC tbh the products ALWAYS perform like you expect them too.
They have some flops but they have so man products that are ESSENTIAL
Girl you better open your horizons 😭😭
I loved this video! Love your sentiments! Love your outstanding English. So much appreciated!!
Every year at the end of December, I take a hard look at my makeup collection and I see how great it is and that I don’t know how much I’ll actually buy the next year. And I buy that load of hot garbage that I just told myself every year. Every year. Because by January, my boots are already shaking, and by February, I’m already starting to set up what I’m going to buy during the Sephora VIB sale. I haven’t bought anything yet but we’re not even in the double digits of January yet. I really like these videos though
The kosas blush is giving old school milani baked blushes a la luminoso
As someone who likes Bitter Peach a lot but found Lost Cherry too sweet, I prefer Electric Cherry to Cherry Smoke. I think you'll like both, though!
No, ELF did have several color correctors, years ago (8,9?). A similar form to the new one, color-correcting setting powders in cool & warm (I had both), several correcting primers in pump bottles, and a color-correcting cream compact with four shades, which I also had-- the compact came in two sets of 4 shades each, like the powders. I've long since tossed it, but still have the Cool correcting powder compact, which I just crushed to dust to use loose for my under-eyes; this had four shades you'd swirl together or use separately. So I guess they're getting back to this, but they did not just jump on the trend. As for the rest of this stuff, I feel more or less the same way as you, except that there's one Mac lipstick I'd love, but I have 1 so similar, I'm not buying their twin.
That Kosas baked blush looks like a bronzer in the picture.
I am intrigued by the e.l.f. color correctors, especially the pink and yellow. (Incidentally, the pink and the green were giving me Exa corrector vibes.)
this slightly pink shifting eyeshadow and a rosy cheek look so good on you, i can't stop staring omg
I am enjoying you take on powders! The Nars one is interesting but also I would love to hear your views on the hourglass finishing powders.
Really great video. Would love to know if you color your hair? It’s gorgeous and if so what brand and color. Beautiful look and hope you do a get ready with me on it!! Gorgeous
When I think of a cherry scent I basically want something along the lines of the smell of the Jergens cherry almond lotion. That’s what I want. That smell in a bottle. 😂
I love Black Girl Sunscreen sunscreen bc it doesn’t pill under makeup. Hannah - now I need to smell Tom Ford perfumes! Thanks for some hot takes!
New subscriber -- I need Hannah to talk me out of buying more beauty releases in 2023...and you started out strong!
It made me sad that I've accumulated too many impulse buy beauty products over the past year.
Only reason I’m pro mini lip products is my mom got me the Bobby brown mini crushed lip trio for Christmas with the buff lipstick, beautiful. And I’m glad I got to try them!
On the listing, it says it’s meant to be mixed with foundation (not placed in isolation on the face) to change it to a cooler tone, if the foundation in question is too warm. Very similar to what you did with the Salt New York crème tints. In short, more of a mixing medium than an actual color corrector.
I have never bought anything from Nars and the blush quad is very appealing to me, BUT, I have a quad of blushes from Ofra in a Makeup Geek 9 pan palette and it looks exactly like it. So, I love it, but I basically already own it.
Sephora should make a Sephora Favourites lip liners only. Full size products of course.
Happy new year! The colour of that hoodie is giving me life! Also I would love a perfume video from you. Maybe try a bunch of samples or smell a bunch and give us a perfume review of sorts? That’s the video I didn’t know I needed until you talked about Cherry Smoke. Also the only mini lipsticks I like are the Mac ones and the Tom Ford ones! Very good packaging and I can never fully finish lipsticks. But other than that I generally also hate mini lip products!
I am also greatly interested in color correctors after doing a number on my skin over the holidays, mainly in anxiety-filled skin picking. RIP the relatively clear skin I had a month ago
I picked up the blue color correct or because about a week before this was released. I saw a CZcams short about how you can fix concealers or foundation base products of any kind that are for example to Orange leaning or to warm leaning and I have Colton skin so some brands I can’t even find a foundation that works for me but anyway, the blue Offsets the worms so that’s personally what I picked it up for
Osmanthus is also known as sweet olive. It has a floral, fruity scent.
