16
00:01:01,345 --> 00:01:04,985
Speaker 2: speaking of I went to a Fragrance masterclass with Sephora

17
00:01:05,065 --> 00:01:05,905
Speaker 2: a couple of weeks ago.

18
00:01:06,065 --> 00:01:07,945
Speaker 1: God, I couldn't go to this because I had my

19
00:01:08,065 --> 00:01:11,985
Speaker 1: daughter and I was so jealous because it sounded so cool.

20
00:01:12,145 --> 00:01:14,545
Speaker 2: Yeah. So there was a perfumer who took us through

21
00:01:14,545 --> 00:01:17,545
Speaker 2: the different notes and like raw fragrance ingredients. I don't

22
00:01:17,545 --> 00:01:20,865
Speaker 2: know if ingredients is the right terminology, but we're gonna

23
00:01:20,945 --> 00:01:22,385
Speaker 2: roll with it. Yeah, I think it is. And I

24
00:01:22,425 --> 00:01:24,265
Speaker 2: was just so interested to find out, Like, I know

25
00:01:24,345 --> 00:01:26,545
Speaker 2: what kind of sense I like. I tend to like lighter,

26
00:01:26,625 --> 00:01:29,625
Speaker 2: fresher sense and stay away from anything to gormond or

27
00:01:29,665 --> 00:01:33,265
Speaker 2: heavy or woody. I think we both Yeah, okay, but

28
00:01:33,505 --> 00:01:35,745
Speaker 2: it was interesting to find out what notes make the

29
00:01:35,785 --> 00:01:38,465
Speaker 2: fragrances I like. So the fragrances I tend to like

30
00:01:38,465 --> 00:01:41,025
Speaker 2: like bubble Bath by Replica or like GLOSSIERU. But my

31
00:01:41,145 --> 00:01:43,185
Speaker 2: favorite fragrance brand at the moment, I'm wearing it today

32
00:01:43,185 --> 00:01:46,225
Speaker 2: and I producer Cassie complimented me so. And it's by

33
00:01:46,305 --> 00:01:48,225
Speaker 2: Rosy Jane, which is at Sephora. But there are a

34
00:01:48,225 --> 00:01:50,785
Speaker 2: couple of sense that I'm obsessed with. Rosy which is

35
00:01:50,825 --> 00:01:54,305
Speaker 2: like rose and musk but very light. It's really pretty. Yeah,

36
00:01:54,345 --> 00:01:57,345
Speaker 2: and you're wearing Missy, which is more like someone nostalgia.

37
00:01:57,425 --> 00:01:59,705
Speaker 2: I recommended it as my bougie a couple of weeks ago.

38
00:01:59,745 --> 00:02:03,185
Speaker 2: And I also like Lake, which is vanilla, sandwood and nearoli. Yeah.

39
00:02:03,265 --> 00:02:05,305
Speaker 1: I just love how they name their sense as well,

40
00:02:05,385 --> 00:02:06,625
Speaker 1: just like short sweet, to the.

41
00:02:06,545 --> 00:02:09,625
Speaker 2: Point the descriptions of them are like smells like falling in.

42
00:02:10,305 --> 00:02:12,265
Speaker 1: Yeah, really cute.

43
00:02:12,745 --> 00:02:15,825
Speaker 2: But anyway, let's answer some questions. First up, we've got

44
00:02:15,825 --> 00:02:18,945
Speaker 2: a question from Christina. Hey, ladies, I'm looking for some

45
00:02:19,025 --> 00:02:21,345
Speaker 2: cost of living friendly skincare and I want to keep

46
00:02:21,385 --> 00:02:24,585
Speaker 2: it super simple. Can you please recommend a cleanser, moisturize,

47
00:02:24,585 --> 00:02:28,025
Speaker 2: a sunscreen, and an active please keeping it under a hundred? Thanks?

48
00:02:28,305 --> 00:02:31,745
Speaker 1: We can. Indeed, I had to stop myself from just

49
00:02:31,745 --> 00:02:35,065
Speaker 1: being like qv face. I know, because that is obviously

50
00:02:35,145 --> 00:02:37,945
Speaker 1: my answer here. If you want something that is from

51
00:02:37,945 --> 00:02:43,265
Speaker 1: a drugstore, affordable, demologically tested, effective, I just love that

52
00:02:43,465 --> 00:02:46,865
Speaker 1: so much, that whole collection. But I dug deep, I know.

53
00:02:47,305 --> 00:02:49,185
Speaker 2: I tried to switch up the brands because again like

54
00:02:49,545 --> 00:02:54,185
Speaker 2: the cedar Phils, the Seraves, the qvs, those brands are amazing, amazing,

55
00:02:54,225 --> 00:02:55,865
Speaker 2: and we know so much about them. But we both

56
00:02:55,865 --> 00:02:58,105
Speaker 2: decided to try pick some things that maybe you haven't

57
00:02:58,105 --> 00:02:58,545
Speaker 2: heard about.

58
00:02:58,785 --> 00:03:00,825
Speaker 1: Yeah, and look, I did put something in there from

59
00:03:00,865 --> 00:03:02,785
Speaker 1: the iconic. I kind of did break our mold a

60
00:03:02,785 --> 00:03:05,105
Speaker 1: little bit. That's okay, But I know that you love

61
00:03:05,145 --> 00:03:09,865
Speaker 1: this cleanser. It's a Hooba company, Jhoba Bead COLENSA one

62
00:03:09,905 --> 00:03:11,865
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty five meals thirty one ninety five from

63
00:03:11,945 --> 00:03:15,625
Speaker 1: the Iconic. It's just really beautiful and effective. And I think,

64
00:03:15,625 --> 00:03:17,665
Speaker 1: if we're only going to buy one cleanser, we need

65
00:03:17,705 --> 00:03:21,185
Speaker 1: an element of exfoliation in it, because obviously we didn't

66
00:03:21,185 --> 00:03:22,705
Speaker 1: have enough budget to do both. So I was like,

67
00:03:22,785 --> 00:03:25,465
Speaker 1: we need something that does both of them, and Jojoba

68
00:03:25,665 --> 00:03:28,505
Speaker 1: is obviously perfect for that for all skin types. Deeply

69
00:03:28,545 --> 00:03:32,705
Speaker 1: cleanses it's non drying, softens and exfoliates. It's really creamy.

70
00:03:33,305 --> 00:03:35,745
Speaker 1: For those of you who are having a slush like

71
00:03:36,225 --> 00:03:39,985
Speaker 1: panic when I said beads, they're not the synthetic beads,

72
00:03:39,985 --> 00:03:43,625
Speaker 1: they're actually hober beads are a natural plant enzymes that

73
00:03:43,665 --> 00:03:47,025
Speaker 1: have been formulated to create that exfoliation for you. So

74
00:03:47,145 --> 00:03:49,545
Speaker 1: it's not bad beads, it's good beads, if that makes sense.

75
00:03:49,585 --> 00:03:52,705
Speaker 2: It's not Sinai's scrub, No, we're not doing that.

76
00:03:52,825 --> 00:03:53,585
Speaker 1: No, it's soft.

77
00:03:54,065 --> 00:03:56,265
Speaker 2: So my cleanso is seven dollars seventy four.

78
00:03:56,265 --> 00:03:59,465
Speaker 1: Which is annoying because you just won the cost of

79
00:03:59,545 --> 00:04:01,545
Speaker 1: lobbing competition of cleanser.

80
00:04:01,665 --> 00:04:04,745
Speaker 2: Yeah. So this is the glow Lab hyaluronic acid hydrating

81
00:04:04,745 --> 00:04:07,145
Speaker 2: cleans It's one hundred mils seven dollars seventy four. So

82
00:04:07,545 --> 00:04:09,465
Speaker 2: I worked with Glow Lab to create some content for

83
00:04:09,465 --> 00:04:12,465
Speaker 2: this range, and I just fell in love with this cleanser,

84
00:04:12,785 --> 00:04:15,785
Speaker 2: especially for winter. It's a cream formula. It almost feels

85
00:04:15,985 --> 00:04:18,545
Speaker 2: like you're rubbing lotion onto your skin, like that kind

86
00:04:18,545 --> 00:04:21,705
Speaker 2: of cream. It doesn't foam up or feel stripping at all.

87
00:04:21,745 --> 00:04:24,865
Speaker 2: It's fragrance free. It has hyaluronic acid, seramid's pro vitamin

88
00:04:24,905 --> 00:04:27,545
Speaker 2: B five. I cannot understand how they have managed to

89
00:04:27,545 --> 00:04:30,265
Speaker 2: make this cleanser so good and so affordable, because it

90
00:04:30,305 --> 00:04:32,745
Speaker 2: really is. It's vegan, cruelty free, and under ten dollars,

91
00:04:32,745 --> 00:04:33,705
Speaker 2: which is a straight up bug.

92
00:04:33,865 --> 00:04:35,145
Speaker 1: Oh. I really need to try that.

93
00:04:35,305 --> 00:04:36,945
Speaker 2: Talk to me about your moisturizer.

94
00:04:37,145 --> 00:04:39,705
Speaker 1: Oh whoop. See I did put this in here qv

95
00:04:39,825 --> 00:04:43,625
Speaker 1: Face Nurturing night Cream because it's my favorite product of

96
00:04:43,665 --> 00:04:45,385
Speaker 1: that collection. So I was like, okay, I'm going to

97
00:04:45,425 --> 00:04:49,265
Speaker 1: recommend it. I am obsessed with this. It's like day

98
00:04:49,345 --> 00:04:50,785
Speaker 1: or night really that you can use it as a

99
00:04:50,905 --> 00:04:52,865
Speaker 1: night cream, but I don't think it matters, especially as

100
00:04:52,865 --> 00:04:55,225
Speaker 1: we're heading into winter, or very much in winter. My

101
00:04:55,265 --> 00:04:58,185
Speaker 1: skin is already feeling so tight and taut. It's just

102
00:04:58,265 --> 00:05:04,185
Speaker 1: so beautiful. So non offensive, really effective and it's twenty bucks.

103
00:05:04,585 --> 00:05:07,985
Speaker 2: Mine is a Sarah V facial moisturizing lotion. So this

104
00:05:08,105 --> 00:05:11,305
Speaker 2: is twenty seventy nine and tested. Simple but a goodie.

105
00:05:11,585 --> 00:05:14,265
Speaker 2: So it has the famous three essential seramides that serabi

106
00:05:14,305 --> 00:05:17,105
Speaker 2: are known for, as well as hyaluronic acid and nicinamide,

107
00:05:17,105 --> 00:05:19,905
Speaker 2: which is really soothing. It just feels very nourishing on

108
00:05:19,945 --> 00:05:23,945
Speaker 2: the skin. Sometimes I think we have these moisturizers that

109
00:05:23,985 --> 00:05:27,505
Speaker 2: do so much. This is a simple, effective moisturizer. Yeah.

110
00:05:27,505 --> 00:05:29,865
Speaker 2: So it just feels hydrating. It feels like it locks

111
00:05:29,905 --> 00:05:32,225
Speaker 2: in that hydration too, like I don't find myself getting

112
00:05:32,265 --> 00:05:34,265
Speaker 2: dried throughout the day. It's good for all seasons.

113
00:05:34,345 --> 00:05:35,105
Speaker 1: Okay, that's great.

114
00:05:35,185 --> 00:05:36,145
Speaker 2: Tell me about your serum.

115
00:05:36,305 --> 00:05:39,465
Speaker 1: Oh well, I went with the stock standard always delivers,

116
00:05:39,625 --> 00:05:43,265
Speaker 1: and that is my boot Lab two D Hyaluronic hydro

117
00:05:43,305 --> 00:05:43,905
Speaker 1: Boost serum.

118
00:05:44,025 --> 00:05:44,705
Speaker 2: I love this too.

119
00:05:44,985 --> 00:05:47,665
Speaker 1: I originally had like a hectic active in here, but

120
00:05:47,705 --> 00:05:49,345
Speaker 1: I was like, no, no, because we can't use that

121
00:05:49,345 --> 00:05:52,225
Speaker 1: every day. So I changed it to this, and I

122
00:05:52,225 --> 00:05:53,865
Speaker 1: think it's just perfect when you need a little bit

123
00:05:53,905 --> 00:05:55,905
Speaker 1: of hydration and a little bit of plump. I reckon

124
00:05:55,945 --> 00:05:58,585
Speaker 1: you see it pretty much instantly, like your skin just

125
00:05:58,665 --> 00:06:01,145
Speaker 1: drinks it up. So it has hyaluronic acid in it

126
00:06:01,185 --> 00:06:02,225
Speaker 1: obviously by the name.

127
00:06:02,505 --> 00:06:04,705
Speaker 2: Oh does it lay well under maker, Yeah?

128
00:06:04,705 --> 00:06:07,305
Speaker 1: It does. All of the boost Lab serums I find do.

129
00:06:07,465 --> 00:06:10,665
Speaker 1: They're just really kind of light formulations, really heavy hitting

130
00:06:10,665 --> 00:06:13,705
Speaker 1: in the way of hydration or whatever active is in them.

131
00:06:13,865 --> 00:06:17,825
Speaker 2: Okay, mine is the ordinary soothing and barrier support serum.

132
00:06:17,865 --> 00:06:20,105
Speaker 2: It's thirty MILS for twenty nine dollars. It was my

133
00:06:20,225 --> 00:06:23,225
Speaker 2: favorite launch of twenty twenty three. Like hands down, I

134
00:06:23,265 --> 00:06:25,345
Speaker 2: don't know to think about it. So I cannot see

135
00:06:25,385 --> 00:06:26,865
Speaker 2: a day where I do not have this serum in

136
00:06:26,905 --> 00:06:27,505
Speaker 2: my routine.

137
00:06:27,625 --> 00:06:27,865
Speaker 1: Yeah.

138
00:06:27,865 --> 00:06:30,105
Speaker 2: Wow, it is so good. It's a calming serum, so

139
00:06:30,145 --> 00:06:33,025
Speaker 2: it's got nice cinamide, vitamin B twelve and seramides. It

140
00:06:33,105 --> 00:06:35,545
Speaker 2: helps to support the skin barrier, hydrate and reduce a

141
00:06:35,585 --> 00:06:38,265
Speaker 2: look of redness and any kind of feelings of discomfort.

142
00:06:38,345 --> 00:06:42,425
Speaker 2: So I first trialed this overseas. I was going overseas

143
00:06:42,465 --> 00:06:45,105
Speaker 2: and I took it as pretty much my only serum

144
00:06:45,505 --> 00:06:49,785
Speaker 2: sun Send SPF salt water. My barrier was getting it right. Yeah,

145
00:06:49,825 --> 00:06:54,305
Speaker 2: and this was so soothing. I found that my skin barrier,

146
00:06:54,505 --> 00:06:57,425
Speaker 2: I can tell when it's a little bit sensitive, bit touchy.

147
00:06:58,065 --> 00:07:00,345
Speaker 2: I just found my skin was in such good nick

148
00:07:00,665 --> 00:07:03,505
Speaker 2: in an everyday basic routine. It is just supportive of

149
00:07:03,505 --> 00:07:06,865
Speaker 2: your barrier. It's nourishing. If you've got any discomfort or redness,

150
00:07:06,905 --> 00:07:08,545
Speaker 2: it's going to help with that. And it's also hot pink,

151
00:07:08,545 --> 00:07:09,185
Speaker 2: which is really fun.

152
00:07:09,305 --> 00:07:11,945
Speaker 1: Love that sunscreen. I was so annoyed when I saw

153
00:07:11,945 --> 00:07:14,625
Speaker 1: that you had already put my choice in very I

154
00:07:14,705 --> 00:07:18,305
Speaker 1: had to go a bit weird. Mine is Banana Boat

155
00:07:18,465 --> 00:07:22,185
Speaker 1: SPF fifty plus kids, seventy five mil. It's a roll on.

156
00:07:22,305 --> 00:07:26,105
Speaker 1: It's eleven ninety nine from Chemist Warehouse. Look. I obviously

157
00:07:26,145 --> 00:07:28,745
Speaker 1: bought this for my daughter rue because a roll on

158
00:07:28,825 --> 00:07:31,985
Speaker 1: is so much easier to apply for kids, but it's

159
00:07:32,105 --> 00:07:35,345
Speaker 1: also really good to just apply on the run. It

160
00:07:35,425 --> 00:07:39,545
Speaker 1: isn't like greasy, it's like thin. It rubs in really easily.

161
00:07:39,825 --> 00:07:42,785
Speaker 1: It settled into the skin fragrance free. It has to

162
00:07:42,825 --> 00:07:45,345
Speaker 1: be super mild and gentle because it's made for kids,

163
00:07:45,545 --> 00:07:48,225
Speaker 1: which means that for me having really sensitive skin, it's

164
00:07:48,265 --> 00:07:52,785
Speaker 1: one of a handful of suncreams that I really feel

165
00:07:53,065 --> 00:07:56,745
Speaker 1: suits my sensitive skin. Love that, Yeah, what's yours already know?

166
00:07:57,105 --> 00:08:00,545
Speaker 2: It's the laroshe Pase and Thlios Invisible Fluid SPF fifty.

167
00:08:00,705 --> 00:08:02,985
Speaker 2: At the time of preparing this episode, it was twenty

168
00:08:03,025 --> 00:08:06,025
Speaker 2: six to fifty six of Priceline. Yeah, so key, you've

169
00:08:06,025 --> 00:08:08,865
Speaker 2: recommended it before and you liked the texture of it.

170
00:08:08,985 --> 00:08:11,465
Speaker 1: Yeah, the text which is beautiful. It doesn't feel like

171
00:08:11,505 --> 00:08:14,345
Speaker 1: a sunscreen, if that makes sense. It feels more like

172
00:08:14,385 --> 00:08:14,985
Speaker 1: skin care.

173
00:08:15,345 --> 00:08:16,585
Speaker 2: Okay, Key, what's your total?

174
00:08:17,305 --> 00:08:22,105
Speaker 1: Ninety three eighty nine boom five six seven dollars to spare.

175
00:08:22,305 --> 00:08:25,265
Speaker 2: We're good at beauty, not at math, not at quick math.

176
00:08:26,065 --> 00:08:28,425
Speaker 2: My total was eighty four dollars and nine cents.

177
00:08:29,465 --> 00:08:30,345
Speaker 1: Sleigh over there.

178
00:08:30,425 --> 00:08:32,105
Speaker 2: I might even have more room for a little active

179
00:08:32,105 --> 00:08:33,945
Speaker 2: in there. Yeah, probably maybe a lip bum.

180
00:08:34,265 --> 00:08:36,265
Speaker 1: Can you spread some of that budget over here so

181
00:08:36,305 --> 00:08:46,625
Speaker 1: we can both get another product? Next up a question

182
00:08:46,665 --> 00:08:50,545
Speaker 1: from Kerry Hey beauty besties. I know Kelly and Lee

184
00:08:53,785 --> 00:08:55,905
Speaker 1: for you girls too. You have to buy a full

185
00:08:55,945 --> 00:08:58,345
Speaker 1: face of makeup from Sephora and Mecha are the catches

186
00:08:58,545 --> 00:09:01,465
Speaker 1: you can only choose from their own brands Sephora Collection

187
00:09:01,545 --> 00:09:05,185
Speaker 1: and machamacs. Well, I love this, Which products do you get?

188
00:09:05,705 --> 00:09:07,785
Speaker 2: This episode is fun we just get to go pretend shopping.

189
00:09:07,825 --> 00:09:11,025
Speaker 2: I'm so happy. Yeah, I do love that. Okay, talk

190
00:09:11,065 --> 00:09:11,785
Speaker 2: to me about your base.

191
00:09:12,225 --> 00:09:16,145
Speaker 1: Mine is the Mechamax Bring On Bright Illuminating Primer thirty

192
00:09:16,145 --> 00:09:18,625
Speaker 1: mils twenty two dollars. I love on the MECA website.

193
00:09:18,625 --> 00:09:20,505
Speaker 1: How it just has like a little description. It's like

194
00:09:20,545 --> 00:09:25,025
Speaker 1: three words, usually a glow boosting illuminating primer, and that

195
00:09:25,625 --> 00:09:29,825
Speaker 1: it is. I really enjoyed the texture of this. It

196
00:09:29,865 --> 00:09:32,505
Speaker 1: gives kind of like a really gorgeous glow under makeup.

197
00:09:32,705 --> 00:09:35,785
Speaker 1: But this could be your base. This is actually beautiful.

198
00:09:35,785 --> 00:09:37,945
Speaker 1: Like often I'll just put this on just to give

199
00:09:38,025 --> 00:09:40,425
Speaker 1: like a little bit of a glow underneath. It does

200
00:09:40,465 --> 00:09:43,665
Speaker 1: the most while not making the biggest stent in my

201
00:09:43,745 --> 00:09:45,105
Speaker 1: little wallet here in my pocket.

202
00:09:45,145 --> 00:09:46,665
Speaker 2: Tell me about what you'd put on top of that.

203
00:09:46,785 --> 00:09:49,465
Speaker 1: The one that I'm most keen to try is the

204
00:09:49,505 --> 00:09:54,385
Speaker 1: best skin glow ever, twelve hour moisturizing liquid foundation from Sephora.

205
00:09:54,585 --> 00:09:57,665
Speaker 1: So it comes in twenty five shades or immediately ticks

206
00:09:57,705 --> 00:10:01,785
Speaker 1: my like one rule or makeup at being like a

207
00:10:01,905 --> 00:10:05,105
Speaker 1: dark skinned person. But it's also for all skin types,

208
00:10:05,145 --> 00:10:08,305
Speaker 1: so combination dry, normal oily. It has a really natural

209
00:10:08,425 --> 00:10:12,025
Speaker 1: radiant finish and it's like medium to share buildabill and

210
00:10:12,105 --> 00:10:13,825
Speaker 1: also the reviews look really good, Like I watched a

211
00:10:13,865 --> 00:10:17,305
Speaker 1: few YouTube tutorials on reviews on it, and it just

212
00:10:17,305 --> 00:10:20,585
Speaker 1: seemed like a really beautiful foundation that would be similar

213
00:10:20,625 --> 00:10:23,105
Speaker 1: to the nas one that I'm currently using. Yeah, but

214
00:10:23,145 --> 00:10:25,665
Speaker 1: for a fraction of the price. Thirty six dollars. Talk

215
00:10:25,705 --> 00:10:27,785
Speaker 1: me through your primer and your biss.

216
00:10:28,145 --> 00:10:30,385
Speaker 2: So I don't have a primer, but I have an

217
00:10:30,425 --> 00:10:33,665
Speaker 2: SPF and it's not Mechamax, but it's Mecacosmetica.

218
00:10:33,425 --> 00:10:36,065
Speaker 1: So that is gating, it's not, it's not really I.

219
00:10:35,985 --> 00:10:38,945
Speaker 2: Can make my own rules, so to save face. SPF

220
00:10:38,985 --> 00:10:42,465
Speaker 2: fifty superscreen twenty two dollars per thirty grams. It feels

221
00:10:42,465 --> 00:10:46,185
Speaker 2: like a lux facial sunscreen with broad spectrum fifty plus

222
00:10:46,225 --> 00:10:50,225
Speaker 2: UVA and UVB protection. It is a natural matte finish.

223
00:10:50,265 --> 00:10:53,025
Speaker 2: It's not greasy, and it doesn't leave the skin with

224
00:10:53,025 --> 00:10:55,945
Speaker 2: a white cast. And it was basically designed for makeup

225
00:10:55,985 --> 00:10:59,905
Speaker 2: wearers to slip in between moisturizer and foundation while remaining

226
00:10:59,945 --> 00:11:03,705
Speaker 2: almost undetectable in the skin. Yeah, it really is excellent.

227
00:11:04,065 --> 00:11:06,385
Speaker 2: I have heard an unbelievable amount of rave reviews for

228
00:11:06,425 --> 00:11:09,305
Speaker 2: the Mechamax Off Duty Serum skin tint, which is thirty

229
00:11:09,305 --> 00:11:11,385
Speaker 2: two dollars, comes in twenty shades. I think I'm gonna

230
00:11:11,425 --> 00:11:13,905
Speaker 2: go buy this because this question convinced me, Like when

231
00:11:13,905 --> 00:11:15,545
Speaker 2: I was doing the research, I was like, why haven't

232
00:11:15,585 --> 00:11:17,905
Speaker 2: I bought this? So it's a foundation serum hybrid, which

233
00:11:17,945 --> 00:11:19,945
Speaker 2: we know is very popular at the moment. It's a

234
00:11:19,945 --> 00:11:22,065
Speaker 2: sheer coverage, which is very mean, and it has nice

235
00:11:22,105 --> 00:11:25,025
Speaker 2: Cinna white and squalene. Looks like skin, no makeup, makeup vibe.

236
00:11:25,065 --> 00:11:27,465
Speaker 1: Okay, let's breeze through these because we're taking up so

237
00:11:27,545 --> 00:11:32,665
Speaker 1: much time. Browse so brow Guru Micromatic pencil. It's super

238
00:11:32,745 --> 00:11:34,985
Speaker 1: super super precise. It's got like the tip of it

239
00:11:35,025 --> 00:11:35,865
Speaker 1: is just like so skinny.

240
00:11:35,905 --> 00:11:37,665
Speaker 2: So it's perfect from Mecca from Mecha.

241
00:11:37,825 --> 00:11:40,305
Speaker 1: Got it twenty dollars. It's so precise that you can

242
00:11:40,385 --> 00:11:42,945
Speaker 1: just draw on those individual hairs so it looks like

243
00:11:42,985 --> 00:11:45,425
Speaker 1: it's been feathered or laminated. It's really good for that.

244
00:11:45,465 --> 00:11:48,705
Speaker 1: And there's six shades total. I use the shade Duck.

245
00:11:48,905 --> 00:11:51,065
Speaker 2: Oh okay, So for brows, I've got the Mecha Max

246
00:11:51,065 --> 00:11:54,465
Speaker 2: brow Guru Power brow Stronghold gel. It's twenty six dollars

247
00:11:54,425 --> 00:11:57,065
Speaker 2: a year. I use this. Yeah, it went really viral.

248
00:11:56,945 --> 00:11:58,305
Speaker 1: Sold out. I could never get my hands on it,

249
00:11:58,345 --> 00:11:58,585
Speaker 1: and I know.

250
00:11:58,625 --> 00:12:01,065
Speaker 2: I found it in store, so lucky. Wow. But it

251
00:12:01,105 --> 00:12:03,905
Speaker 2: really does hold the eyebrows solid, like they won't move babes.

252
00:12:04,105 --> 00:12:05,785
Speaker 2: But with this product, less is more. It can get

253
00:12:05,785 --> 00:12:07,505
Speaker 2: a bit flaky if you go too hard, so like

254
00:12:07,585 --> 00:12:09,585
Speaker 2: don't like keep dipping in, and I almost like dip

255
00:12:09,705 --> 00:12:12,305
Speaker 2: it in, scrape the product around like the applicator and

256
00:12:12,345 --> 00:12:15,105
Speaker 2: then put it on so strongholding. It's a gel. It's

257
00:12:15,145 --> 00:12:24,505
Speaker 2: really good. Okay, let's do cheeks now. I think we

258
00:12:24,585 --> 00:12:26,545
Speaker 2: both picked the same blush, did we? Let's say it

259
00:12:26,545 --> 00:12:29,345
Speaker 2: on count of three one two three, make a max

260
00:12:29,345 --> 00:12:30,505
Speaker 2: off Judy blushtick.

261
00:12:33,665 --> 00:12:35,025
Speaker 1: But what shade? Well?

262
00:12:35,345 --> 00:12:39,185
Speaker 2: I think you would go sorbe yeah you know yeah, yeah, yeah,

263
00:12:39,225 --> 00:12:41,425
Speaker 2: it's so good, tell us what it's good? So good.

264
00:12:41,825 --> 00:12:46,505
Speaker 1: It's just a yunkie kind of like beautiful product. It's

265
00:12:46,505 --> 00:12:48,985
Speaker 1: easy to put on. I have like going out makeup

266
00:12:49,265 --> 00:12:51,505
Speaker 1: and makeup that stays at home. So typically my really

267
00:12:51,545 --> 00:12:54,745
Speaker 1: expensive makeup will stay with me at home and I'll

268
00:12:54,825 --> 00:12:56,625
Speaker 1: use it to do the face. But then I take

269
00:12:56,665 --> 00:12:59,945
Speaker 1: out like more affordable like my touch up kit with me,

270
00:13:00,065 --> 00:13:02,385
Speaker 1: and this is always in there because it's only twenty dollars.

271
00:13:02,505 --> 00:13:04,505
Speaker 1: It's pigmented. You can build it, you can tone it

272
00:13:04,545 --> 00:13:06,465
Speaker 1: back if you go to ham with it. Not like

273
00:13:06,545 --> 00:13:09,185
Speaker 1: those bloody rare blushes when you put too much on

274
00:13:09,225 --> 00:13:12,665
Speaker 1: and you've got to wash your face such a travesy. Great,

275
00:13:12,745 --> 00:13:14,025
Speaker 1: but you know you're in a rush and you put

276
00:13:14,025 --> 00:13:16,305
Speaker 1: too much on. These are very forgiving.

277
00:13:16,665 --> 00:13:19,105
Speaker 2: Yeah. I also like the contour stick version, and then

278
00:13:19,145 --> 00:13:21,145
Speaker 2: if I was going to choose a highlight, I like

279
00:13:21,185 --> 00:13:23,545
Speaker 2: the Mechamax off duty glass highlighting stick.

280
00:13:23,585 --> 00:13:25,585
Speaker 1: Well, I haven't tried the highlight.

281
00:13:25,265 --> 00:13:27,985
Speaker 2: So this isn't like a cream shim I kind of highlight.

282
00:13:28,065 --> 00:13:31,825
Speaker 2: It looks clear, it looks like a lip gloss almost.

283
00:13:32,105 --> 00:13:34,345
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it's really cool. It's very similar to the

284
00:13:34,385 --> 00:13:37,625
Speaker 2: CRT Dewy sticks or the Chanell Balm Essential and obviously

285
00:13:37,625 --> 00:13:40,065
Speaker 2: way wave cheap parts twenty dollars, so this is more

286
00:13:40,065 --> 00:13:41,905
Speaker 2: of a due to the skin rather than a sham

287
00:13:42,025 --> 00:13:43,505
Speaker 2: or a glow, which is what I really like in

288
00:13:43,505 --> 00:13:46,465
Speaker 2: a highlight. Love it all right, we're finishing up with lips.

289
00:13:46,505 --> 00:13:47,825
Speaker 2: We've got too many products that we like.

290
00:13:48,025 --> 00:13:50,585
Speaker 1: No, it's not our fault. They just make really good products,

291
00:13:50,585 --> 00:13:51,185
Speaker 1: both of them.

292
00:13:51,545 --> 00:13:54,105
Speaker 2: For lips, I'm choosing the Mechamax Power Pencil. It's sixteen

293
00:13:54,145 --> 00:13:56,665
Speaker 2: dollars fifteen shades. One of my favorite lip liners ever,

294
00:13:56,905 --> 00:13:58,505
Speaker 2: Key's wedding lipliner.

295
00:13:58,585 --> 00:14:01,865
Speaker 1: Shut up, it was mylipliner. When we had lips as

296
00:14:01,905 --> 00:14:04,265
Speaker 1: a thing, I didn't even think of liners. I just

297
00:14:04,305 --> 00:14:06,225
Speaker 1: went straight to, like my gloss.

298
00:14:05,865 --> 00:14:07,625
Speaker 2: Records, what's that? What's gloss?

299
00:14:07,625 --> 00:14:11,065
Speaker 1: Recos also make a max Sorry Sppora gloss Boss lip gloss.

300
00:14:11,105 --> 00:14:13,745
Speaker 1: These glosses are what made me get back into glosses

301
00:14:13,785 --> 00:14:15,945
Speaker 1: about a year or so ago. It was like literally

302
00:14:15,945 --> 00:14:18,785
Speaker 1: the first time post two thousands that I had gone

303
00:14:18,945 --> 00:14:22,385
Speaker 1: in to get a gloss and I was thinking, oh, sticky, gooey, flavored,

304
00:14:22,825 --> 00:14:25,545
Speaker 1: a bit like rough, you know that weird texture. Some

305
00:14:25,585 --> 00:14:28,345
Speaker 1: of them had no. No, this is thick but soft

306
00:14:28,385 --> 00:14:31,665
Speaker 1: and nourishing. Fifteen shades total. It's like a mix of opaque,

307
00:14:31,705 --> 00:14:34,985
Speaker 1: sheer and shimmer shades, which is really nice. And the

308
00:14:35,385 --> 00:14:38,945
Speaker 1: favorite shades I have shine Time, which is clear so good.

309
00:14:39,025 --> 00:14:41,665
Speaker 1: It's just like your basic over the top baseline and

310
00:14:41,785 --> 00:14:45,505
Speaker 1: call it love it Yeager twenty bucks each were the

311
00:14:45,505 --> 00:14:47,865
Speaker 1: best product wins I should have saved my money.

312
00:14:50,025 --> 00:14:53,145
Speaker 2: Budget Bugi and budget time time to share our favorite

313
00:14:53,225 --> 00:14:55,665
Speaker 2: chief and cheerful products of the week in our recent splurges.

314
00:14:55,705 --> 00:14:58,665
Speaker 2: I'm gonna start with my budget. Go girl. My budget

315
00:14:58,705 --> 00:15:01,745
Speaker 2: is the se gelcture in the shade Fairy Tailor. This

316
00:15:01,905 --> 00:15:04,625
Speaker 2: is a nail polish and at seventeen ninety nine. I

317
00:15:04,625 --> 00:15:06,665
Speaker 2: got it at Priceline Ages Ago, but I know they

318
00:15:06,705 --> 00:15:09,785
Speaker 2: also have si at Mecca and Adore Beauty. So the

319
00:15:09,785 --> 00:15:11,825
Speaker 2: reason I love this is because I get biab on

320
00:15:11,825 --> 00:15:14,945
Speaker 2: my nails. But I kind of hate getting my nails done,

321
00:15:14,985 --> 00:15:17,465
Speaker 2: like just like the actual how long does it take? Yeah,

322
00:15:17,505 --> 00:15:19,105
Speaker 2: like an hour and a half. It's long, but they

323
00:15:19,145 --> 00:15:21,385
Speaker 2: look beautiful Like I do. I love where I get

324
00:15:21,385 --> 00:15:23,705
Speaker 2: my nails done. It's more just like that. I try

325
00:15:23,705 --> 00:15:25,585
Speaker 2: and stretch it out now by an extra week, and

326
00:15:25,705 --> 00:15:28,065
Speaker 2: this has really helped with that. I lie. So I

327
00:15:28,185 --> 00:15:30,585
Speaker 2: paint over the top of my biab and because this

328
00:15:30,665 --> 00:15:32,825
Speaker 2: is like a gel formula, it's a little bit thicker

329
00:15:32,825 --> 00:15:33,465
Speaker 2: and it kind.

330
00:15:33,345 --> 00:15:35,225
Speaker 1: Of looks like it fills it in almost.

331
00:15:35,265 --> 00:15:37,545
Speaker 2: Yeah, it fills in like the space between the quticle

332
00:15:37,585 --> 00:15:39,505
Speaker 2: and the bottom of the byab. So I get literally

333
00:15:39,545 --> 00:15:41,705
Speaker 2: an extra week out of my nails. I love that,

334
00:15:41,785 --> 00:15:43,625
Speaker 2: which is amazing. All right, tell me a budget.

335
00:15:43,705 --> 00:15:45,985

Speaker 2: So so cool.

347
00:16:13,665 --> 00:16:15,945
Speaker 1: The cleans and conditioner are just really great, Like I

348
00:16:15,985 --> 00:16:19,145
Speaker 1: really enjoyed them. The shampoo wasn't stripping, the cleanser was

349
00:16:19,265 --> 00:16:21,545
Speaker 1: really great at hydrating and softening my curls. I could

350
00:16:21,545 --> 00:16:23,825
Speaker 1: get the comb through, but it was the stylers that

351
00:16:23,945 --> 00:16:26,985
Speaker 1: like really got me. Both the cream and the gel

352
00:16:27,065 --> 00:16:31,705
Speaker 1: are really thin, watery consistency, so so much of how

353
00:16:31,865 --> 00:16:34,265
Speaker 1: well your curls turn out and the styling process is

354
00:16:34,305 --> 00:16:37,145
Speaker 1: determined by the moisture that is in your hair after

355
00:16:37,305 --> 00:16:39,585
Speaker 1: washing it and off I get out, I need to

356
00:16:39,585 --> 00:16:42,185
Speaker 1: moisturize my body. So my hairs like drying because these

357
00:16:42,185 --> 00:16:44,825
Speaker 1: are so watery, they're really forgiving. And what I've noticed

358
00:16:44,825 --> 00:16:48,305
Speaker 1: is that my curls are just so defined and so long.

359
00:16:48,345 --> 00:16:50,545
Speaker 1: They've still got length in them, like the gel doesn't

360
00:16:50,545 --> 00:16:51,585
Speaker 1: make them spring up.

361
00:16:52,265 --> 00:16:55,305
Speaker 2: My boogie is the Medicaid Ultimate Recovery. It is thirty

362
00:16:55,305 --> 00:16:57,385
Speaker 2: meals and I found it for sixty seven to twenty

363
00:16:57,385 --> 00:17:00,425
Speaker 2: on Look. Fantastic retail price usually around eighty four. Okay,

364
00:17:00,505 --> 00:17:04,105
Speaker 2: So I worked with Medicaiate on a treatment that they're

365
00:17:04,145 --> 00:17:06,905
Speaker 2: doing and I got this peel so it was fantastic,

366
00:17:06,985 --> 00:17:09,425
Speaker 2: loved it. But I fell in love with this product

367
00:17:09,825 --> 00:17:12,905
Speaker 2: in my post treatment kit after appeal, you kind of

368
00:17:12,985 --> 00:17:16,065
Speaker 2: use a different skincare routine, like you're not using your actives. Yeah,

369
00:17:16,145 --> 00:17:18,665
Speaker 2: so this was in the kit as a moisturizer that

370
00:17:18,705 --> 00:17:21,705
Speaker 2: I'd be using, and it was so thick, so rich,

371
00:17:21,785 --> 00:17:26,825
Speaker 2: almost like a thick, creamy balm. My skin loved it.

372
00:17:26,825 --> 00:17:29,625
Speaker 2: It's intensely rich in astorty, but it was actually developed

373
00:17:29,625 --> 00:17:33,545
Speaker 2: to minimize downtime associated with aesthetic treatments. Oh wow, right,

374
00:17:33,825 --> 00:17:36,065
Speaker 2: but it's just great dry comprom my skin will love this.

375
00:17:36,185 --> 00:17:39,585
Speaker 2: It's very soothing, nourishing and calming and I am obsessed.

376
00:17:39,785 --> 00:17:42,065
Speaker 1: Okay, my bougie. Actually, you gave me these when I

377
00:17:42,065 --> 00:17:43,225
Speaker 1: was at your house the other day and I fell

378
00:17:43,225 --> 00:17:46,465
Speaker 1: in love the makeup by Mario Super Satin Lipsticks forty
