[@lynettefinnigan9540]

Do you sell the application mitt for the tanning foam???

[@alphabookworm]

Absolutely loved this Shan. You are just so relatable and real, and I just adore that about you. Just you being you, cracked me up. Like when you showed off the face hair and dead skin that we all love to see come off of our faces, and then said , “gross”. I love hanging with you my friend, and I am truly so happy to learn you are finally feeling better. No kissing that baby when he gets back from daycare haha 😂 just kidding. Fingers crossed he comes home bug free. Can’t wait to see how you finished up your beauty and pamper day. ❤

[@em.ii.ly99]

i really appreciate these kinds of videos, I’m 9 months postpartum and still struggling! watching this motivated me to get up and also do some self care that i’ve been neglecting whilst my baby naps, so thank you! and thank you for being so vulnerable and honest. being a mama is fkn hard work! lots of love 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🫶🏼

[@MsSuperTrue]

been following u since that one clubbing GRWM back in the days LOL absolutely so proud of how far you've come without changing for YT.

[@shaaanxo]

sooo long omg

[@vic_cresss]

ME TOO! and that classic black and white wallpaper with the pattern 😂

[@kaylademezieres9562]

I LOVE videos like this. I’m currently sick and not working today because I feel utter rubbish and watching someone feeling the same made me feel not so poopy! And I have now gained the motivation to go have a long pamper shower and face mask and tint my brows and blade my face haha so I can feel better. Cause those things always make me feel more human when I’m not 100%. You are the only creator I watch on KZbin cause I just never find myself the time to sit and watch or I can’t concentrate haha (adhd tings) but you always give me dopamine 🥹 and I never miss a video. I have been watching you since I was 15 (I want to say younger but I could be wrong and my memory is shocking!) and I’m turning 28 this year. Love love love you gal 💕 you deserve the pamper & to feel amazing & hype yourself up. Sometimes we need this when we are run down and we shouldn’t have to explain ourselves when we do it. And also! We all need a good vent. If anything, these are my favourites haha🤣 it’s like two friends catching up and getting ready together haha. Love it. 🥰

[@Kayhxo]

Take care Shan! Was so happy to see this video come up in my subscriptions. I missed your videos but i just hope you are all feeling better now. Sending love and hugs to you and your family ❤

[@oliviagilbertsen6598]

I appreciate your honesty around motherhood so much!!! I have a 15 month old son and we also just had a very similar rough patch (still going through it tbh). No sleep for what feels like months, sickness after sickness, it's been so difficult. Hearing you are going through the same thing is actually so comforting. I hope you read this and know you aren't going through it alone either

[@becomingsophiesceliaclife]

One of my favorite things about your channel is how real and relatable you are, so many channels are all about being "perfect" and "happy" 24/7 which is not realistic or relatable to me at all. I hope you feel better soon! Self care is so important, especially for us moms. I'm a chronically ill, single mom, self care helps my mental state so much. I'm going to rewatch this tomorrow and do some self care alongside you (even going to trim my hair lol). Thank you for always being relatable 💛

[@halfgoddess_halfhell]

Self care is part of mental and physical health care. You do for you, momma!! 💜💜

[@kjrowald]

I’ve been watching you for years, and it’s been so cool to grow up with you. Real talk, the kid germs will be like this for a while. I was sick every other week for the first couple years my son was in daycare. It’ll suck for a while, but it’ll pass, I promise. It helps a lot when they stop coughing directly into your face. My son’s 4 now, and toilet training aside, I think covering his mouth is one of the most important things he’s learned. Don’t forget to take some time for yourself every now and then. You deserve it!

[@aneesahall6151]

It is hard being a mom especially a new mom, you become exhausted, tired, feeling needed constantly. I completely understand feeling bleh and it does feel so good to take care of yourself once you get that energy ❤️

[@Surixo]

Pampering is not superficial!! It’s self care 💖 you look gorgeous as always Shan. Thank you for the update 🥰 you take care

[@Surixo]

I’m naturally brown, I also use your fake tan and it’s AMAZING. I haven’t used other tans before but as soon as you put it on, you see the difference

[@Surixo]

And it doesn’t give you the “fake tan” vibe. It looks natural if that makes sense. It’s not orange

[@Julzableful]

These videos are kind of my fav because I also use my makeup and hair straightening time to get myself together mentally. I also just love that you genuinely enjoy making your videos 💖

[@giuliacamardella2186]

In the nicest way possible, the cut to 15:45 with the ponytail in the front made me giggle! I’ve been watching you throughout high school and I’m now 23 and married with a house. You are so inspiring Shannon!! 🥹

[@ashleyc2525]

I feel you Shan, I’m in a funk too and definitely put myself on the back burner. The mound of laundry in the corner of my room is shocking but I’ll get to it one day soon once I’m feeling better! Hang in there and so will I!!

[@HayleyinOz]

Real life hun! some days we have our shit together and other days we feel like we are dropping the ball in every section of our lives. One day at a time , prioritise what’s important and self love / care is super important. Do what ever gets ya through and don’t compare yourself to anyone else. We all do it differently x x

[@shaaanxo]

so true

[@samanthameyer8419]

It breaks my heart to see how down you are! But I think I can speak for most everyone that we adore how authentic and real you are ❤ sending all of the love, positivity, and immunity your way!

[@shaaanxo]

thank you

[@amandafoster1478]

Absolutely enjoyed this video and so relatable. Be kind to yourself. You're a mum with a toddler and with that life becomes more hectic. Good on you for recognising your self needs it's so important. Hope you feel heaps better 😊

[@CherryAdeCherry]

I've not even started watching this yet but I already know that I AM GOING TO LOVE IT!! You are literally my comfort watch, I love watching you and have been watching you for as long as I can remember honestly! You are doing so amazing and I always get super super excited when you upload a new video! I love you so much

[@claireculham985]

Hi Shan. I have a 6 month old and I'm so thankful I saw this. You inspired me to do self care today. I'm currently watching while doing my nails ❤

[@AnnieLynn]

I love you so much because you are so authentic and relatable and all these videos where you show the real you with all the bad moods aswell just make me feel like you are a true friend and true human and I hope you never stop posting no matter what happens ❤

[@susielee5634]

So happy you're feeling better! Being a mom is hard work especially when you're sick!!! You're doing a great job! ❤❤

[@tropicalladyj8033]

Don’t worry Shan, everyone needs a TLC makeover now and then I love makeovers / pamper sessions!! I do spa sundays because that day works for my schedule. It’s a nice start for the week. If you fall off, get back on 🌺💜

[@touchofclass6415]

I sure hope you feel better soon! That look turned out gorgeous and for not feeling well you look like a million bucks...Love the eyeshadow, earrings and top too. xoxo 😘😘

[@prettynsleepy1073]

I hope you get back to feeling yourself soon. Hard times make us appreciate the good times. It gives us a reference point. Life is a journey. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@raecat90]

I can relate to this so much. When everyone is sick, us Mums usually let our self care come last. So glad you were able to pamper yourself!

[@HOLLYBEAR32]

you are human its ok to not be okay Im here for the ups&downs love you girl

[@abbiearkell4766]

I'm only halfway through this video and need to comment because just watching has made me feel SO uplifted! I struggle so much with self-care when my mind's in turmoil and it's incredible just hearing that other people go through it too and I'm not just a failure at living LOL. Thank you so much for this❤

[@SoGladFor]

Yes, (hello from the States), our pediatrician told us the amount and severity of the sicknesses for kids this year is the worst in years and especially toughest on the kids who don't have immunity built up yet. I feel your pain and hope all in your fam and you - are well again soon ❤

[@jobutler-mills5142]

I watched your vlog and I wanted to give you a big hug. I am on the same boat. I have been sick for so long that I don’t even know what it feels like to be normal. You are doing a great job. Keep up the great work. ❤

[@shaaanxo]

hugs

[@amandavlam9656]

I think sometimes we spend so much of the infancy stage being exhausted, that it all tends to catch up when they are toddlers. Even with post partum hair loss, mine didn't start until closer to 18 month pp. And there's nothing better than a big pampering session and just getting dressed up to sit around the house and take a few selfies to really lift the spirits. Life is rough enough without throwing those toddlers with the claws into the mix, you gotta do what you can when you can

[@ceciwolfcat7]

You have a right to complain, everybody does. I love the way you took how you're feeling into your own hands! To me you always look lovely, but I adore this makeover, good on ya!!!🥰 P.S. Your hair is amazing!!!

[@dny1994]

You are absolutely allowed to complain/vent. Everyone has rough seasons of life and days/weeks where we don’t feel confident in how we look and all that. I’m so sorry that people have made you feel unable/uncomfortable to be sharing about things that are honestly real and a crappy part of life. Everyone needs a safe place to share and vent and I am all for you sharing what you’re experiencing-good and bad. We’re here to listen (and we can all relate to parts of what you’re going through at least. It’s human.) Love you! Hope you’re feeling better!

[@vh9641]

This is so open and honest - I’m sure many of us can relate to how you’re feeling right now and I thank you so much for sharing it with us. I definitely enjoyed this video and your authenticity is one of the main reasons I have been subscribed to you and have watched your videos for so long. Be proud that you managed to put together some awesome content and invested in yourself. Queen ❤

[@kanjoncallaghan5008]

Loved this vlog! Raw and relatable. Self care is so important. Would love to see a makeup video on small business products! Great for us to buy from them and try new products 💖

[@MadelineMarlin]

Loved this video! It always feels like I'm in the room hanging out with you in your videos ❤️ happy you got to pamper yourself a bit!

[@chiplum]

Loved this video! Honestly been feeling the same lately and today my “makeover” was a quick eye mask after work. Can’t wait for part 2 💕 also you’re doing amazing! Just keep taking things a day at a time and you’ll get through it. Sending lots of love! ☺️

[@katesherwood7900]

Hi Shan love the vid! I like when people are real. Nobody's life is perfect all the time and I think it's important we reflect that on the internet too where often we pretend everything is perfect. Thanks for sharing what's going on with you and I love how you did something to make yourself feel better, it was nice to watch your mood brighten as the vid went on. Thanks for always sharing with us, and I'm glad you feel a bit better! 😊😊😊

[@maggie717]

I love these kinds of self care videos, gives me ideas for when I’m feeling crappy and need to spruce myself up!!

[@LoveFromAndreaaa]

I totally get what you mean Shan 🙂 Sometimes when life gets tough we put ourself in the background. But a little self-care is so needed 😊

[@duokapili3569]

We all have one of those periods when we don't feel good about ourselves. Part of it, right? How nice to hear that you are there for your son and family. That is much more important than looking beautiful. You are doing well. Don't doubt that. Even without makeup you are all glam!!!

[@annamurrell7871]

My little one is almost 1.5 years and I feel like I still lose more hair than I used to pre-baby. I definitely went through the hair loss stage post partum, and I’m not losing anywhere near that amount but more than I used to. Thank goodness I have super thick hair and my baby hairs are working their way back but 🤷🏼‍♀️😂

[@stephaniequerel8402]

My youngest just turned 2. I lose more hair then i care to. Been taking vitamins

[@cassierandall1075]

I love these videos!! You always motivate me to take care of myself on the days I’m not feeling myself. You are only human and have bad days too. Sending you lots of love and hugs xxxx ❤️❤️

[@mirandahummel4016]

We transform many times in life friend. I’m still trying to redefine myself too as I age, and change into this mommy stuff. One step at a time.

[@vaishaliwilliams7679]

What you're feeling is normal I also went through it after both my kids. I only focused so much on them I forgot about myself. It will pass and get better. Sending hugs.❤❤

[@shima.girloffgrid]

Love love love this style of video! Very real and raw so thank you ❤

[@swk1919]

These are the BEST videos!! My favorite!! 🤍🤍🤍

[@danahbanana]

Your self tan is the BEST I have ever tried and I’ve tried a lot. It really helps me in those down moments when I just need a self care day of getting myself together. The mask too. Plug away, Shan. You can tell you put your heart and soul into your products. They are top notch.

[@ameria_eve]

I think it’s cool you actually use your products and are like very hands while making them because then you feel so proud with the outcome 😊❤

[@SaraThompson713]

Omg Shan I feel the same way about myself lately. Last night I tanned w your tanner (which just so happen to be my fav lol) and felt so much better in the morning. Did my make up while watching your video and I was like “oh hey I feel the same” lol I honestly like that you actually use your products, so many people launch stuff and then barely use what they make, it’s frustrating. I buy from xobeauty whenever I can because your products are always quality! The new lipsticks and pencils are awesome, such great formulas ❤

[@Surixo]

Honestly screw the people who get mad if you complain. It’s your KZbin and you’re only HUMAN. Also you look so gorgeous at the end, cannot wait for the video!! 😘🥰

[@Ashleyyyy_xx]

Loved this type of vid and super relatable. Lots of us are going through it too so it helps to not feel alone plus watch the makeover 😊 ❤

[@ashattack99]

I feel like I grew up with you so you can do anything and I’ll watch. It’s like we’re just hanging out. ❤

[@AngelsLieToKeepCtrl]

I appreciate you filming this even knowing that people will probably complain. It's reassuring to see people be raw. Thank you for not going out to businesses while you're sick too. :)

[@melissajames]

Just went on your website and bought some xoBeauty goodies to support :) 🥰

[@starwassellwaa]

I love watching these videos, especially now that I have a daughter. It’s so nice to be able to watch someone else who’s going through the same or similar especially someone who’s from New Zealand because there isn’t a lot of New Zealand KZbinrs who are also mums

[@Nys1108]

I love videos like this! So relatable. I get into a rut working and being a mama. It feels so good to reset and feel like yourself again

[@Nella_roxy14]

Hi Shannon I hope you get well soon and feeling better I always love seeing your videos ❤❤

[@ItsChrissieK]

Loved this Shan!💗 Thanks for always being so genuine and relatable. I think that’s why everyone here at this channel love you and always stayed watching you- I have literally grown up from a teenager to adult watching you!! You’ve helped me a lot❤️ also please know you always look great. Your skin and hair are always perfect!💗 I totally understand this feeling though. Please take time for you!!🌟❤️

[@lisamarshall4384]

So happy to see you and have a video and really appreciate your realness. Just went and purchased some stuff from the website as you were talking and I just love your products and how affordable they are. Hope you feel better soon ❤😊

[@sarahvic458]

This is such a good reminder that it's ok to feel crap ❤ sometimes a reset is all you need ❤

[@nadineveitch5837]

Honestly these are the best video's! What I love about you is you keep it real and honest. Man I don't know how you Mum's do it, wishing you guys lots of good health real soon!

[@annchristian8993]

Hi Shan, I watched the vlog the other day, I am sorry you have been sick ugh, hope Porter starts feeling better and cuts the last of his molars. You look so beautiful no matter if you have on make up or not. I can't speak for anybody other than me, but I like these types of videos. I believe you are always real with us, but it is nice to see you in relaxing clothes and things. You are a wonderful mother never forget that Porter is a beautiful lil boy he is gonna break hearts when he gets old enough..lol.. You and Hamish are doing great, and I hope you both know that, take care of each other and feel better, sending much love from Delaware U.S.A.

[@kelligilbert3597]

You should be so proud of all you do. You inspire me.

[@AnnieLynn]

I would love to see a new PR haul from you, i miss that kind of video, i know you havent done it in a while because of moving was hectic 😊 also, i love experimental videos from you where you just do a random makeup because you are genuinely so funny - maybe you do more of decades series where you recreate some looks and just try to see how they turn out!

[@dominiqueabell3498]

Shannon I really love and appreciate your honesty. I had such a tough time after having my girls with ppd especially since Ive struggled with depression most of my life. I know what it feels like when nothing seems to be going right around you either. But just keep doing what you're doing and just do what you can to take care of yourself, and just know that hard times won't last forever. Sending you love and prayers from the states in Florida. Idk if you still go on Facebook messenger but if you ever need someone to talk too I'm here 😘🇺🇸

[@smurfette12121974]

Just continue being ur awesome authentic self 😊

[@malloryadams4749]

So relatable! I need a pamper myself like hair, nails the works! we are in the thick of daycare bugs aswell and it feels never ending 😅

[@lozm1070]

I enjoy pamper videos like these ❤ hope you’re feeling better

[@worthyyou923]

Oh girl you’re a mum…I can completely understand the feeling. I’ve got 4 kids- my youngest is Porters age and most pampering is left for the weekend but the week it’s pjs and messy bun…you got this girly!

[@BunnyRathbun]

I loved the video!! Im sorry to hear youve been having a hard time, i know lots of us are right there with you. ❤❤

[@kristagoodluck6748]

I hope you’re feeling a lot better ❤ I love your videos as always, I can definitely relate with having two boys. You are doing wonderful, keep it up!

[@lunaj4812]

I hope you’re feeling much better now & always 🤍 love u shan

[@sarahthedinochick]

Can relate so much, doing my makeup is the only thing that makes me feel happy when I’m sick. Especially during highschool when my mum would send me anyways 🤣 x

[@avi.poulsen]

Shaan, we missed you and I love hearing that you guys are little more better❤❤ Love you🌸

[@lovekimberleyday9232]

I’m currently feeling gross cause I’m super sick from Bub at daycare I’m continually sick like u it’s horrible hope u feel better soon watching this to inspire me to self care

[@Heidithune]

love these kind of videos here, it screams shannon videos. you are my favorite and im always so happy when I see you upload ❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

[@keelieinwonderland]

Shan, you gorgeous inside and out I hope you get better and please don’t be pressured to return fast

[@philipdeshanco]

I love that you have always used your own products, like you actually like them, I think it’s super weird when ppl don’t actually use their own lines ever… like is it not rlly good or???

[@TheLittleRainbowCo]

Been following since the OG days 😍🌈 My fav is your 4 pack of synthetic brushes ❤Love your point about supporting small local business too it's so true 💕 Hope Xo Beauty does well and gets through as im sure it will💕 Also I need that fake tan in my life 😍

[@HeyyItsShae_]

After having a child, you DESERVE this moment to sit back and relax with what makes you happy. If that’s makeup, hair and nails, that should be a-ok. You’re gorgeous as always and I hope you feel better soon ♥️

[@lorenyoung3625]

I feel this so much! My boy just turned one last week and I feel like crap most of the time cause I just get no time to myself between work and him getting sick all the time!! So thank you for always being honest about this stuff, makes me feel so much better for complaining all the time 😂❤

[@l_7376]

You deserve to take care of yourself, girl! Good for you ❤️

[@jehnnaanderson1172]

Please do a whole video on skincare! They’re my favourite ☺️

[@jasminemckinnon7194]

I love these kinds of videos! we all have our days of feeling shit, or weeks or months lol its nice to have relatable content and is now one of the reasons I continue to watch every video of yours after maybe 10 years or so! And btw that makeup look is one of my favourites of all time

[@EmilieRyw]

-You are also allowed to feel like crap sometimes, and you are allowed to use makeup and fake tan to make yourself feel a bit better. You can preach body positivity and still use more “superficial” things for self care! Love you Shan! ❤

[@RSSwimmer]

This is exactly what I needed. Feel like trash today and it feels like I'm with you getting ready

[@possumintheblossom]

Last week i was thinking about what i might want to do with my next annual holiday. Fly to NZ (from Syd) for Shaanxo to give me a complete makeover (including wigs, brows, makeup, fashion) was the top of my list. No expense spared of course.

[@possumintheblossom]

Or maybe pay for Shaan to come to Sydney for a pamper and big splurge (as well as my makeover).

[@makeitup2112]

Love your videos Shan

[@analuisacanha1491]

Loved it 💯 you're authentic 💗 Love you so much 🥰 sending lots of good energy 🙌
