💖 ABOUT ME:
Hi, my name is Jen I am 44 and live in Connecticut with my husband and 8 year old son. I am a stay-at-home Mom and full-time KZbinr with a degree in business with a focus in marketing. Before leaving work when my son was born, I was a commercial lender at a bank. I also worked at Sephora and Macy's doing visual merchandising.
I have dry skin with some hyperpigmentation and fine lines. I love natural makeup looks but occasionally go outside my comfort zone a little bit. On my channel you'll find lots of videos about drugstore makeup and drugstore dupes (those are my favorites to film!) but I also review high-end makeup as well. I hope you enjoy my channel and if you do, please don't forget to SUBSCRIBE & leave me a comment!

The braid in my hair is actually a headband! I got in on Amazon in the Caramel Blonde shade...so much easier than trying to do it myself. :) amzn.to/3Y9bAgR

[@mallorydurrick]

I was just going to ask that question. Looks great on you Jen!!!

[@annastrand5144]

I was going to ask for a tutorial. The braid is a great color match.

[@bethallen7723]

It's so cute... I was going to ask! Matches your hair perfectly!

[@ginamatthews-pr3kr]

I love it Jen! Looks great on you.

It’s so cute. Wondering if they have a dark brunette one with grey in it 🤪

Hair is gorgeous!

Okay the hair is hairing today.❤

[@sandram.d.6164]

Lol. I've never heard that saying before. That's funny! And, I agree.

[@midlifemom5829]

So grateful that you haven't posted an Amazon Prime day video!!! Milani cream blushes truly rival higher end. I hope they add more shades. I also wish they had a darker shade of silky matte bronzer

[@JenPhelps]

I'm tired of seeing them in my feed so I can't imagine how you guys feel!

[@midlifemom5829]

Seems like you are the only beauty influencer who has not done an Amazon video, and I subscribe to most of the ones considered your YT "peers". Its been a quiet viewing week for me😂

[@tamizilla]

Yes, so over them. I can find items I need myself. Bought tirtir milky toner, d'Alba spray (rebuy , each prime day and my 2 stansout sponges ( 4 years now). That's it so exciting lol

[@Randilynn66]

I saw a video that Amazon was paying extra commissions for prime days, so I’m assuming that’s why there’s been a glut of these videos so over it

[@sherryelle225]

​​@@Randilynn66The 2 videos I saw where sponsored, so I didn't watch the whole thing. I don't support Amazon anyway. Any company who treats their employees that way should be ignored completely. Imo. Not to mention all of the Union busting laws that they break. I don't judge those who do shop there but I don't choose to support them.

[@amandawhitlock8607]

I just wanted to thank you for not posting an Amazon Prime video. It is truly sickening how badly the influencers are pushing it and I read someplace that Amazon was giving big bonuses to influencers based on sales goals. That explains why they're all so rabidly pushing their links. I appreciate you and I want you to know that I went to your Amazon store and bought a few things in support of you!

[@emptiesdiary6063]

You look like a princess with this hairstyle

Aw thank you! :)

If Milani could add some cool-toned blushes to their lineup, that'd be great!

[@kaburzynski]

Did you mean to say Tarte Amazonian Clay Blushes? You called them the Maracuja blushes :) Side note, it’s so awesome to see how many different video ideas you can make without buying new makeup! I love it. I really get trapped into the buying buying buying of beauty KZbin so I appreciate your no buy!

[@JenPhelps]

Yes! Sorry about that, haha!

[@EnvyBlu]

🙄 unnecessary correction 🙄

[@tanyad7073]

@@EnvyBlu- I disagree. I was wondering if there was a newer blush from Tarte that I wasn't aware of. I'm glad she clarified.

What about Milani eyeshadow primer! Better than UD. I know eyeshadows are falling off the globe this fall but I just wanted to give homage to an old favorite! Jen, you look so summery cool, comfortable and most of all gorgeous! Thank God, the heat wave has let up a bit in upstate NY! Hope it’s cooling off for you and everyone! Have a wonderful summer to all, it’s half over already!🥰😎☀️👙🍉👗⛱️🩱🧴

[@DLF1122]

Do you remember, maybe 20 years ago, when Milani had single shadows that duped MAC single shadows? They were beautiful and had a great formula, but sadly, were discontinued.

[@JenPhelps]

Yes!! Those were great!

[@shellteresa778]

First beauty video I’ve watched in a while. My mom passed away. It’s been very hard. I was helping my dad care for her. It was so hard at the end. Your video did give me a moment of peace from crying. I do love so many milani products. The blushes are my favorite from them. I wish they would go back to the old eyeshadow formula. It was so good.

[@JenPhelps]

Oh I'm so sorry to hear about your Mom! I wish I could give you a hug through the screen.💗

[@Lisa-hl5ch]

Milani used to have the best baked eyeshadow singles. I was really sad when they were discontinued.

[@carolmcduffie1990]

Hey Jen your total look (hair, makeup and dress) in this video is absolutely gorgeous.

[@jtidema]

I agree, I was just thinking whatever she is doing it's working!

[@sandybowers5085]

Jen!!! You are literally aging backwards right before our eyes❣️💯Thanks so much for reminding me of all the Milani products I have in my collection that I have set aside for others that don’t perform as well. Time for me to really go through my makeup and bring back my favorites to the forefront of my rotation! Loving your hair today!

[@jenniferbailey2169]

I rarely have additions to your recommendations but their eyeshadow primer is awesome as well!

[@jtidema]

I really love the Color Fetish Matte Lipsticks. I feel like they are not too dry - more Satin-y. And I usually put a gloss on top if I'm going out. But I NEVER thought of using them for cheeks. What a great idea for vacation when I'm trying to pack less makeup!

[@mimzyc9949]

I just bought a Milani cream blush on vacation because I forgot to pack one and thought I’d try it. Loved it so much I bought another one. Also like their lipstick. Really enjoying this series.

[@cindymarble1270]

Milani is a favorite! Their baked blushes are great!

[@rhondacrane7277]

The stay put eyeliner is THE BEST! I had the YSL & the Milani blew it away.

[@StellaEast17]

The concealer is my one and only favorite concealer all time! I bought 20 for sure, and will never stop!

[@BlingyBea]

Awe you look like a Fairy Princess, going back to watch the 2 other videos I missed. My only grandson turned 21 and we just got back from Vegas, yup grandma took him😂

[@JenPhelps]

Aww so fun! Hope you had a great time! 🥰

[@BlingyBea]

@@JenPhelps yes we had fun, my daughter and son-n-law and 2 of my grandson’s college buddies flew in to celebrate. I can’t believe he’s a college senior this coming fall, where did the time go. I only had one child, my daughter and she only had one child, my grandson. I know you only have your son, time goes by so fast, treasure all those little boy memories cause before you know it they’re all grown.🥰❤️

[@pamelaanderson9884]

I love these type of videos! Also, your hair looks gorgeous! Love your channel

[@JenPhelps]

Thank you so much! :)

[@Darbsi]

I still have the old milani single shadows, their face palettes are great, and I use their liquid liner and it lasts all day and their blushes are just the best. I still use the red vino blush which isn’t around anymore and their glosses are good too. A lot to be said for Milani. Thanks for sharing. ❤

[@Lisa-hl5ch]

They were great! I bought back ups of my 2 fav colors on ebay when they were discontinued.

[@mariesikk]

The make it last spray and silky matte bronzer are some of my favorite products in my entire collection.

[@SandiTink]

I have all of them and wondered how they compare to high-end products. This is good info. Thanks.

[@cj5056]

💋Love the mat lipsticks! My personal favorite. They magically blur my lips. 💋

[@eyesofblue21]

Omg you look so darling in this video! I think it’s the headband! So cute!

[@anatodakonzie3376]

Agree with milani blushes love them and so affordable

[@s.jensen1492]

I love a few Milani products with my dry skin and agree the original setting spay is great along with the blushes. Thank you Jen ❤ Love the hair !

Wow, looks amazing! I'd love to try it out 🥰🤩

[@dawnzumbrum8940]

I was going to ask what your blush was, so I'll have to try out that matte lipstick. And I just wanted to let you know that your brows look great on this video. 😊

[@JenPhelps]

Thank you so much! :)

[@carolcaruso6641]

The color statement lipsticks and bold mattes are wonderful, and yes the stay put liners are great too-- there are lots of shades of the color statement lipstick available on Amazon, unusual shades you don't always see.

[@DecolonialRhetoric]

I agree w your top 3 drugstore mascaras! Lots of people are sleeping on Milani’s HR Antigravity mascara. Thx for the awesome video, Jen! ❤

Love the Milani blushes. New love is the luminoso blush stick.

[@sandram.d.6164]

[@bevyoung2009]

I have bought a few things from Milani and I have like everything.

[@dhayden1981]

I have not tried a lot of products from Milani, but I feel like they run kinda high in price for being drugstore. What I have tried and use all the time, I enjoy alot. I'd love to try their blush and bronzer. I don't think their eyeshadows are bad. I've never found any reason to complain about them except their prices. By the way, you look gorgeous, my Disney Princess!

[@jackiestone5808]

You look great as usual, Jen! Thanks for this video😊❤️‍🩹

[@judiwhiteaker5893]

Love the affordable Make it Last Setting Spray

[@katiebrunner4376]

Yessss the baked blush is so good!!

[@gretchenhejazi9463]

This is a great video. You did such a good job of explaining this marvelous brand. I’ve been using it for many years and believe this company is the best drugstore makeup. Yeh, they have slacked on their eyeshadows. I wish they would bring out a stick shadow. Maybe they will read this and think about it??????

[@JenPhelps]

They did launch a shadow stick pretty recently. They're OK but not my favorite shadow sticks. :)

[@connie6410]

I love their baked blush and rose powder blush! The shades are beautiful and they work well on my dry skin

[@traceyflater]

The Milani lip liners were some of the first lip liners I used. And they remain the best I've tried. Both the Understatement lip liners and the traditional wooden ones.

[@JenPhelps]

I haven't tried their lip liners yet but I definitely need to! :)

[@sherryelle225]

I bought that emerald palette that Milani came out with a few years ago and it is the beat palette ive ever tried. High end or drugstore. The shadiws stay on forever. Love it.

[@helpfulnatural]

I'm a big fan of Milani's baked blush, silky matte bronzer as well as their new cream bronzer. In fact, I decided to try the new bronzer after watching your video review! It's so nice on the skin! 😊

[@MyCleverHandle]

Milani's skinny brow pencil is great, and they have an eyeliner pencil/crayon in Moss green that is perfection! Also the rose flower powder blush in Romantic Rose is, for me, like the Covergirl Soft Mink is for you - it goes with anything, has the barest shimmer, and makes a good eyeshadow too! You're looking lovely as ever - and I'm really surprised at some of the Amazon Prime and Nordstrom Anniversary Sale videos I've bounced off of from some of my favorite YTers. Blatant hucksterism (is that still a word?) at its worst. Thanks for keeping it real, and hey - No Buy July is still a winner!🤩👍🥰

[@KChrisWatching]

Love Milani too! Bought the blackberry and honey lip oil, sun kissed bronzing powder (Target), and the concealer. Great video!

[@anasalazar6164]

[@stephaniepugh4963]

I love the highly rated anti gravity mascara! It's great from the first use on, you don't have to wait for it to dry out! 😅

[@Amy-mr2wz]

What an excellent well researched video. Thank you for mentioning the lack of scent in the shinier lipsticks. Every time I buy a Milani matte lipstick, I end up throwing it out because I can't get past the scent. I am going to try the shiny one. Also, I liked the way you swatched and put up the names on the screen. Thank you!

[@Seoulsearch616]

Love the sift, ethereal look you're rocking here Jen! You look so so pretty!! 😍🌹❤️

[@erin8205]

Excellent! I remember using the Milani single shadows back in 04. They sold them at CVS as single pans! I had the lilac shimmer and a brown shade, maybe an olive too? Great quality. I appreciate this video Jen. I’ve gone through a few pans of the Sun Light bronzer and I always go back to it despite always trying high ends. I used up a pan of Romantic Rose too & it’s similar to Tarte Exposed blush. I’m currently obsessed with Cacao lip gloss/balm. I alternate that & Tower 28 Ube Vanilla.

[@BrendaBostonGirl]

Great video, I realized how many of these I have. Those fetish balm lipsticks were way ahead of the tinted balm trend that is everywhere now. Great formula and colors. I have found all of these at cvs and target.

[@JenPhelps]

I agree...definitely ahead of their time!

Great video about Milani. I love their products. Thanks for the recs, Jen!! The bronzer looks very similar to the Laura Geller one I love, "baked imPRESSions bronzer" in Light, which I keep using, even though the compact is broken. lol I'm not a big matte lip gal, but those Fetish matte lipsticks are very wearable with a thin layer of lip balm underneath.
