Oh, when you said 'avocado oil', that reminded me of a man who used to come into the store I worked at, and he would just buy avocado oil, so one day I asked him why. He said he made and repaired saddles, and it was hands down the best oil he had come across for restoring and protecting the leather and his hands. I just love you, your channel, and your content - thank you for making such a nurturing and informative place to hang out for a few minutes on the days you post!
I love your garden scenes ..such a great setting! I'm moving back to the island in 42 days (and counting). It's -5 where I am today. I cannot wait to get back to the ocean, lush flowers, trees and greenery.
I love the nature, by your home, what a beautiful and peaceful neighborhood. Thanks for sharing. This video is a winner. I love it all. Thanks again. 🥰👍🙏✨🌷☘️❤️🌟✝️💫🌿
My Grandmother used to be very into making the petit point pieces in the 1960's i was given one way back then, i think i still have it, treasures! love the friendly squirrel ! so cute !
That is so good to hear an Era. I thrifted a petition point photo container pendant in the 1990s and wore it as "something old" for my wedding day. I always wondered about the history, so now you have given me some perspective. Thank you
We love to stop at little shops and thrift. That is a special date day for us. Somedays we find little treasures others we just look. Thank you for a great video.
This is another beautiful video from you. They are such a treat, and leave me feeling warm and cozy!! One question I have is about using oils on the face. When I use an oil, it tends to end up going into my hairline, causing small bumps. I have never had acne, so this has really surprised me. After watching your video, I'm going to try mixing some oil into my moisturizer! I've been using the lowest strength Tretinoin, and adding an oil would be so helpful!!
Yes, you can certainly mix it with your moisturizer, Patti...the small bumps are most likely milia where the oil might be too heavy or where the oils from the scalp are interacting with it creating a bit of a clog...so mixing it may be a good solution for you...skincare is a bit of experimentation to find the right personal mix :)
I love all your videos. I will try avocado oil. I’m going through menopause and I’ve noticed so many skin changes lately. I can’t use anything harsh like hyluaronic (spelling?) or retinol. It burns and hurts my skin for days. I’m always looking for something that will be effective yet natural and simple. Thank you for the great tip!
Hi Lisa. Am a recently joined subscriber. Eggplants are my husband's favourite and we do different versions of it as it is widely used in day to day life. Also, the first lip shade is my favourite. Thanks for the upload. From India.
So enjoy your happy, positive and informative videos.... am now a new subscriber. I did try the rise hip (skin) oil you mentioned in another video. Love using it!
Hi Lisa, your videos always brighten my day! I am an animal lover also. Sometimes, there are very special connections between humans and the lovely critters that show up in our lives. I'm definitely going to try the Elf product because I need a change in my face makeup. I'm 61, and my current makeup is making me look sallow lately. Thank you for another beautiful video. Have a blessed day 🙏
hi i am looking for a cream that will lift your skin under your chin where your neck is or tighten it up. also i am looking for a cream that will take sun spots away
the neck area can be difficult to tackle since much of the aging in this area is due to excessive sun damage ...topical products can make a small difference though ...What will help is exfoliation once a week and then applying your regular anti aging products (looking for ingredients like peptides and/or retinol) and carry them down to your neck as well as your face...the neck area can also require more moisture than the face sometimes so this is where oils can come in handy ...hope that helps :)
Oh Peppina! Sooooo cute! (We named one of our kittens Peppina a few years ago lol!) You have the most amazing skin! Always smooth and glowing. Thank you for the tips on the facial oils! Maybe available on Amazon? The eggplants looked amazing! Mouthwatering! I love your cameo ring! Reminds me of my mother's paese Torre del Greco, Napoli. Coral and cameo carving center of the world! Mai ci sei stata? Thank you for another wonderful video. You always teach this old gal new tricks! Saluti da New York! Mrs. D.
So sweet to see your little friends who come to visit. Thanks for the skincare/makeup tips. I never thought to use a rolling pin to help flatten out the eggplant. I’ll have to try that. Thanks for the nice video.
Thank you for another wonderful video, Lisa! Your tips are great and as we Calabrese say, I love your “Mullingiani” recipe. Thank you for blending the traditional with the current. Wish we could meet in person, Little Paison! Greetings from Minneapolis Minnesota 🥰👏👏
I think you channeled the spirit of Bob Ross with the squirrel 😂. I wish i had thrift stores in my town. Everyone just throws away or puts in those big charity bins 😢
The squirrel is so cute and the recipe looks so delicious! You are beautiful and I look forward to trying these oils for what I hope will be beautiful results for me!
Hello dear, you are so pretty and your skin is lovely. Thank you for sharing your little friends and also your tips on face oils. enjoy your weekend. God bless you.🥰😇
Thank you so much, Tracey! I will figure out another recipe to share that may be similar to this without using eggplant...here is sthe blush I used in this video amzn.to/4b24uOD the color is called Rose you slay :)
The recipe looks so good. I’m definitely trying it. Enjoyed the new lip colors too. But I have to ask the question: do you do your own nails? Or get them done. The nail polish looks so neat and tidy.. peace be with you! Keep the video’s coming.
Topical solutions for dark spots can help reduce the darkness of the spots by about 30-50% and they work by suppressing the production of melanin in the skin and they also usually have some type of exfoliant as well. You can get a good result if the spots aren't super dark. They will return, however, if you stop using the product and if you go out in the sun without sunscreen. You can use any dark spot corrector you like since they all work pretty much in the same way...if the spots are very dark and/or you want a longer term solution, laser treatment is another option ...That being said I am doing some research into some more natural solutions as well and I'll post some info if I find anything good...hope that helps
Thank you for the skin care recommendations! I use frankincense on my face too.🥰 Do you have a foundation you recommend? I have some melasma and scarring that is hard to conceal.
Yummy eggplant dish. My favorite eggplant dish is eggplant parmigiana, but the work it entails keeps me from making it. Do you cook eggplant parmigiana? If u do can you show it one of your videos?
So you can use just avocado oil?? Like the kind I keep in my kitchen? 😮 That would be so much healthier than the stuff at the store. That Gold pearl plum is so pretty!! I’ll need to find that one. What foundation do use? The brand? No wonder you always look so pretty and put together. Thanks for sharing! BTW… we have a “pet” squirrel in our greenhouse. 😊
I purchased the the Revlon Goldpearl Plum lipstick after watching this video, and unfortunately, it does NOT look good on everyone. It turned very orange on me. Ugh, it was terrible - definitely not a good look for me. (I'm cool/fair with blue eyes and light hair).
Oh, so sorry to hear that! I'm thinking perhaps, the natural pigment of your lips is picking up the orange tones in the lip color...A possible solution could be to try mixing it with another color you have or pairing it with a complimentary lip liner that you like to make it more blue toned...hope that helps

Oh how interesting about the saddles...makes perfect sense though! Thanks so much for sharing and for your visit :)
Your a model for makeup I think. Your so beautiful. Thanks for all the tips. Very nice find on the necklace & bracelet, lovely!
One of your best videos! Thank you
Love the video-especially the little squirrel!
She is such a little darling :)
If you feed a squirrel, you will have a friend for life!
I love your videos - thank you for sharing.
So glad you enjoy, Leslie...hope you have a great Saturday :)
I would love to watch a skincare routine video with you applying your oils. Thank you in advance ❤️
I watch your videos all the time. I love your little squirrel friend as well as any others and the ducks. Thanks for sharing.
How I want a lifestyle such as yours. Beautiful. 🌻 Oh and I love the squirrel 🐿️
Your stuffed eggplant looks delicious! I can’t wait to try it! ❤
That darling squirrel!
Lovely eggplant recipe
I have found that tallow balm at night with castor oil around my eyes has made an amazing difference in my skin!
I love your garden scenes ..such a great setting! I'm moving back to the island in 42 days (and counting). It's -5 where I am today. I cannot wait to get back to the ocean, lush flowers, trees and greenery.
-5 in spring is tough to handle I imagine! How nice you're coming back to the Island :)
Love this video! I have used olive oil for face and body for years. Thank you for sharing your beauty secrets!
Thank you. I love your videos. They are comforting as well as informative

L9ve elf halo. It makes your skin glow.
Oh Lisa! How you touched my heart with that squirrel. I always look forward to all your videos. Tfs
How nice of you to say, Yvonne and thank you for spending a few minutes with me :)
I tried the stuffed eggplant. It was delicious. My husband loved it too. We will be having it again. Thanks so much..
Yay! So happy you enjoyed it, Karen :)
My moms name is josephine and my dad used to call her pepina!!!
That's so sweet :)
Nice video Lisa ❤️
Great job!
I would love to see something on hand care. I garden a lot, and even with gloves my hands get rough and dry.

Once you leave the Island, you miss it everyday. Even on a Great Lakes beach. Lol
I know what you mean...although there are some some truly beautiful areas around the great lakes :)
Delightful
Thank you for the skin care recommendations! I use frankincense on my face too.🥰 Do you have a foundation you recommend? I have some melasma and scarring that is hard to conceal.
Thanks so much, Brooke...yes, I put the foundation I use in the description and it's buildable :)
Thank you so much! 🥰
Yummy eggplant dish. My favorite eggplant dish is eggplant parmigiana, but the work it entails keeps me from making it. Do you cook eggplant parmigiana? If u do can you show it one of your videos?
