[@ginnyburley9552]

I don't care about the background unless it is so fussy and complicated that it distracts me from the person in the video. I find this one very calming and nice. So, for my taste, I wouldn't change a thing.

[@dianachick7887]

Ginny Burley Agree! Agree! Agree!

[@Ohkeh640]

Ginny Burley agreed. Honestly whatever makes her happy and if it’s not too distracting.

[@mariamahon387]

Completely agree!

[@dkalbryte5715]

*agree*

[@Cloonanne]

Ruth, you can stand in front of any background you like. We just love your great personality and helpful knowledge on beauty and makeup. You are the best! Anne, from Michigan❤️

[@Ohkeh640]

Cloonanne very true, well said 👍🏼

[@Marie-lm3bc]

Laroche posay anthelios spf 50 ! 🙌🏼 My fav! The only sunscreen that doesn’t feel heavy on my skin and doesn’t make me shine. Love it.

[@kristinharris3339]

The one thing -only thing- that could make it better....mr. Bear sitting in the chair on the white fur as you film.

[@SelmaAganagicGabelaMB]

Invisibly Crowned YES 🤩

[@SuperBonnie1969]

Some flowers on the windowsill maybe. I do like the background though. It's minimalistic and easy to view.

[@alisonallen8658]

maybe do subtle changes to the background so we can play what's changed now? Actually is is calm and not distracting so a rather good.

[@SolElarien]

the background doesn't have to be distracting, yours isn't and it's also simple and nice, I personally like it very much. Love, Sol

[@sarah_hedges_creates]

The background doesn’t bother me at all, if anything I agree with the other comments of it being nice and calm. We just all like coming and listening to what you have to say 😊 x

[@natalieb3475]

It is a beautifully simple and classy background. Just like you Ruth 😘

[@megs_holland]

I have to be honest, I haven't really noticed your background; in this video especially, I was too busy staring at how lovely your skin looked!

[@jumanington7350]

I agree, it’s calm and tranquil..

[@rachelweinstein9008]

I love the background. All that’s missing is Mr. Bear! The window is great, we can see the seasons change(I’m picturing the snow).💄❤️🐈

[@lynseymcgrath2475]

I have followed you for years and honest to god you are seriously the best out there!!! 💕💕 that glow too!!! Yaaaas queen!!! 💁‍♀️

[@Scarrowscant]

I think the background adds an element of 70’s Emmanuel vibes that I for one enjoy - it makes videos such as these both informative and vaguely illicit!

[@dr.julienarbor6367]

A vase of pretty flowers in the windowsill would be a nice touch. 🌸🌼🌷

[@LigeiaPrice]

I like your background, its down to earth. Also. I just bought the charlote tilburry flawless filter! I cant wait to use it!

[@MaryMarisen]

I can never grow tired of that chair in the background! x

[@sarahbrooks7630]

I love the background Ruth, I don’t think you need to change it constantly 💕

[@mairead5891]

I like the background! I watch to see you, hear about the products and your opinions. And I adore that chair.

[@jerseygirlnv]

You’re always so lovely I don’t even notice the background😊 just keep doing your thang!😍

[@susanmcf1]

I love this background, especially the charming window.

[@happybrasato]

We are looking at you Ruth

[@CharlotteTilbury]

Love this darling! Xx

[@Syrenprinsesse]

The night cream from This Works in the same range is lovely as well. One of my HG.

[@kimberlee3243]

I love a natural background... it’s like sitting to have a chat.

[@rose2fame1]

Eye cream is a must for me while living in hot and dry SoCal. If I put my face moisturizer with spf near my eyes it would sting them for hours! Been there done that don’t want to do that again. Currently using Chanel eye cream and Lancôme moisturizer before Mac concealer and bare minerals foundation.

[@lizc1331]

Hi Ruth, in my opinion I’m not fussed about the background (unless there is something really distracting going on). I love the peacock chair and it looks a really calming space. I would have no issue if this background stayed. Lovely video btw x

[@the_greenhouse_gardener]

I think you need a plant on the window sill. Ooh I've got 2 of the products you mentioned this works & lrp, anthelios xl , and will be repurchasing both

[@onviekade1023]

Retinol, pah! You look all of about 25 with your gorgeous baby face.... I absolutely love La Roche Posay, way and above those of twice and thrice the price! I wish that CeraVe did a factor 50 because their SPF 25 is lovely.

[@sally7299]

Love a neutral, unfussy background! I get distracted too easily 😄

[@karenbrain2459]

You are so funny, you really cheer up my day, wish you were on everyday 🙂x

[@alisonjackness5490]

I really enjoy your channels..especially with the children and 'Dexter, and Mr Bear. Very well written, honest, and funny. Seasonal flowers or things the kids made would be a nice addition to the background. It isn't necessary though, the focus is on you.

[@Megan.eco-Instinct]

The dewy glow from the Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Filter really IS amazing. You are right. I couldn't believe the result when you applied it. This could be a crazy question but what about using a bit of that OVER foundation? I love the coverage of my foundation but I would sure love that finish over my cheeks, some forehead area, chin, etc. Do you think that would work?

[@charlotterogers3318]

“Answers on a postcard “ 🤣 love it

[@wissiemd]

The background is fine but if you want to change it, I wonder if more of the window in the shot by changing the angle slightly, Keep the chair and put flowers (fake or real) on the sill. You could use flowers from your garden. Something small. I absolutely love your videos btw!

[@nancyfielden270]

Background is nice, don't worry about it. 😊

[@jinanh2712]

love the background, ruth!

[@melissastanton6616]

Add a bit of greenery...potted plant on the window sill or somewhere in the background and it will be great for a few years at least 👍

[@Chisesan89]

The Roche Posay SPF is lovely! Such a thin texture 😍 do you think the charlotte tilbury highlighter is comparable to the becca liquid one?

[@mariamahon387]

Hi Ruth. Personally I'm not fussed about the background and am more interested in the content (i.e. yourself 😊). Though I think the current choice of window, with a little greenery just showing and your stunning peacock chair, is rather aesthetically pleasing indeed! X

[@nerilen1862]

I love this background ❤️❤️👏🏻

[@MimiNwabuokuMD]

Ruth, your backdrop is fine; anybody complaining needs to stop tripping.😂

[@tanyawashburn8964]

Thank you for being real!

[@fashionlover1732]

Any products from Lancaster?This is the best sun screen cosmetics,with triple protection :)

[@ailsa4]

Just needs a plant or a candle or something on the window sill but otherwise nice and calming and doesn’t distract from the important part... you!

[@julespearson]

I don't think you have to change your background but I enjoy looking at different parts of your house, because I like it :)

[@mhpora]

I thought, like you, that the Laroche Posay Anthelios was the best SPF because it's 50 but also light and doesn't make your face look white etc but then I discovered the Dr Jart Every Sun Day Fluid and my mind was blown, it disappears like it never existed and I've been using it during this heat wave and my face has been very well protected. (my friend brought it from Korea but I'm sure we can find them on Amazon or something). Would love to hear your thoughts on it. Loving your videos btw xxx (love to see different backgrounds just bc I'm curious to see more of your house ahahah, but that chair is everything!!)

[@stefanie1189]

I also don't care a lot, though a plant would be nice to not only have beige and brown tones

[@origma99]

Love your outfit Ruth. Could you tell us where it is from.

[@HK4seven]

On videos like yours I find a bunch of stuff in the background distracting, or I just don't notice it. I pay attention to you and the products you're talking about- in my opinion I wouldn't worry about it!

[@fashionlover1732]

Can you review some anticellulite products? LOVE your channel

[@LabNYorkie]

I use serum under my eyes and that's all. Years ago I used Power K eye cream from Peter Thomas Roth. Of course to really deal with dark circles that are genetic rather than allergies or sleep deprivation, you must see a specialist. Anyway, it was nearly $100 for a very small container and the cream left me with milia. It frustrates me to no end that this happened. I'm using an acid applied in little amounts and it's helping. I can't afford at the moment to have a dermatologist remove the milia. So lesson learned - some problems can't be fixed with topical, over the counter products and rich creams on thin areas of skin can create a problem.

[@Anonom2012]

I love the background. It's calm and not distracting. If you want to do anything, why not bring in fresh flowers every week?

[@nyrhtak03]

Couldn’t care less about the background! Thanks for another great video Ruth 😊

[@pheart2381]

Deja-vu!

[@michellegordon456]

Love the background imagine sitting in the chair with a book reading and gazing out of the window. Could i move in please lol

[@MsGoldgirl]

You can stand on your head and read the phone book-doesn't matter to me!

[@12yeonjoolee]

beautiful

[@DoctorAnne]

I don’t care about the background as long as it is pleasant to look at, which yours is.

[@marlification]

You need a lovely lush plant next to that chair.

[@debrarozich2456]

Love your background. It's about your great content. :). xo

[@SaucerJess]

💜💜💜

[@francesgreenhow8104]

Ruth a young lady like you "saying "Bollocks" I am over 60 going on next 70. I loved your vids xxxx

[@alexandrafingleton7407]

I never look at the background but it is up to you.

[@Ishouldntbehere6]

I've honestly never cared about backgrounds in YT videos, you're fine! :)

[@mariaadriana7051]

Can you do a Chanel AW look? Thks

[@christabel6937]

I love your background, but will admit that I clicked away from the video because I thought it was the same one as the previous and that I had double clicked accidentally!

[@chcemisiespac]

i never notice background changes on beauty channels :P

[@dkalbryte5715]

How is the DCL line? Input anyone? Ruth, always sweet and beautiful!

[@arainapeterson]

I don’t care about the background. I come for the information and product recommendations.

[@emilyscottbanks7638]

Postcard answer: I watched back in the "old days" of the same wallpaper. My take: it's you; not wallpaper. Stress not.

[@IssyKew]

Love the chair but you need a plant to go with it.

[@staceypleasants]

Your background is lovely but yes, you really must redecorate your home to keep us riveted 😏 (read with cheeky, sarcastic tone)

[@EEN63]

For those that think all skin is the same and it's fine to use the same product for everything, that's certainly their prerogative. However, I suggest using a foot cream on your face and see what results you get. Skin actually isn't all the same and reacts differently to what you put on it. But hey, do whatever you think best. I will forever use specific products for specific areas and specific reasons. Just like I wouldn't use my winter night cream as my summer day cream... I wouldn't be happy with the results, and it's not because the products aren't fabulous. I treat all my different skin for all its different needs, and as those needs change. Decades of research, billions of dollars and all sorts of new technology are involved in creating skin care for specific skin care needs. There is actual science behind all that marketing. As for your background, it's absolutely lovely, fresh and calming! The only time I'm put off is when there is so much mess, it becomes distracting. I would pick up before I have people in my home and it's nice if the content creator "picks up" (aka sets up the camera away from the mess) when they invite hundreds of thousands of people into their home. Of course, if you're doing a cleaning or organizing video, it makes sense to show the messy before. I think you get my drift... I just don't like seeing piles of distracting stuff while trying to concentrate on the message/be entertained.

[@fletcher4]

Bored of the CHAIR?! Never. =)

[@victoriahunt1282]

I feel like there's been a lot of repetition of products in recent videos/ blog posts. Could we get a bit more variety? Thanks :)

[@TwoOnlyChildrenxoxox]

God bless America. You are my darn fave. You’ve come such a long way from your bathroom videos. :) And you are simply gorgeous. And hilarious.

[@katiesmith3242]

Backgrounds don’t bother me x

[@katiesmith3242]

I feel this is a bit of a repeat of another recent video I might be wrong though

[@rachelp5924]

Not looking at the background!!

[@cathylea9980]

I am more interested in your recommendations etc rather than the background 😊

[@cjing0701]

Don’t care about background, do whatever you like😘😘😘

[@MIOLAZARUS]

Never care about background. Only content :)

[@JannetjeW]

Don""t care about the background,but a nice plant in the window would be nice:) NOT A CANDLE

[@tafunasamoa4454]

Not bothered about the background.

[@wjs5773]

Background is pretty irrelevant unless it is fussy and annoying which it isn’t.
