I really appreciate that you've kept your natural peach fuzz! A lot of KZbinrs get rid of it, and it's difficult to tell what base products will look like on a more typical person.

[@laurenzieger9617]

I really appreciate how you highlight the pros and cons of every product so as a consumer I can truly evaluate how a product will fit my wants and needs. Great content, as always!

Hey Amanda, latsly there has been some more tinted moisturizer-type products that has been released: wet&wild, Milani, urban decay, loreal, catrice. Will you be reviewing those?

[@ariannefowler455]

I'd like to see a review of the new Urban Decay one.

[@naomihalperin4083]

Tinted moisturizer show down!

[@DanielleNicoleMakeup]

I must say, I've tried hundreds (feels like it) and the new WnW tinted hydrator is absolutely incredible. Not like "It's good for 5 bucks good" It's great I can't believe it's not high end. But yes would love her to also do a video!

[@ariannefowler455]

I’d like to thank you for all of the work you put into your videos. You put each product on your face which is *so* much better than just hand swatches. Your close-ups are actually close-up and are so helpful!

Oily skin gal here and I LOVE the NYX tinted skin veil. It’s literally my holy grail and I wear it every single day. And I’m pretty oily! I think that’s how great and versatile the product is, that it works on both dry and oily skin types!

[@theblondeflower1471]

I love it too! I find it doesn’t make me oily and it doesn’t fade,like so many other tinted moisturisers do 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’ve seen so many similar products being released lately,but I always remember I have the nyx one and I think it’s the best one I’ve tried so far, so why change a winning team? 😂

[@DanielleNicoleMakeup]

I've been really curious about this product being oily. TFS! I LOVE WnW's new tinted hydrator. It's beautiful and definitely my go to. NYX contour stick is another fav of mine from them!

I also couldn't agree more that the Essence Melted Chromes fit in with the Roen palettes. I used the MCs looong before I found Roen, and I noticed the similarities instantly.

How does Amanda not have millions of subscribers!

Those are incredible products and the prices are just a bonus. Unbelievable how many great products are coming out at affordable prices. Great job this was super helpful!

The Essence mascara is awesome! It made me think that it would be cool for you to do a video where you try long-time favorite/cult status beauty products that for whatever reason you’ve just never tried before and give your thoughts.

We are all guilty of shopping to relieve stress, sadness or boredom. We don't need more influencers who help brands exploit this weakness by creating parasocial relationships with their subscribers then screaming I LOVE THIS PRODUCT on camera and making people feel left out if they don't try viral o(r sponsored) products. We need more people like you. Your detailed descriptions actually help conscious consumers make wiser decisions instead of just mindlessly buying into the hype.

Every time I hear your music I feel like I should be in an art gallery or at a hip new restaurant in NoHo or SoHo. I love it. I also love the essence melted chrome shadows.

Hi Amanda! The Maybelline Fit Me concealer used to be my favorite drugstore concealer but it has been replaced by the Flower Beauty Light Illusion concealer. It's my new HG and I think you'd love it. It's super hydrating.

[@clairedaniels3292]

I also love the NYX Bare With Me! The lightest shade is quite light, so it’s good for people who find that a lot of shade aren’t light enough for them. I also can use it to lighten up a product that’s a little too dark. I love mixing it with a little moisturizer or an illuminating primer, and I agree, it looks very skin like!

[@nataliegomez5946]

You got me hooked on that Maybelline Concealer a while ago😊, I wear the same shade!!! Sending love from Australia💜

I really don’t see dark circles on you at all! I have to have Elf camo concealer level coverage and wear a color corrector because my circles are so dark. It’s genetic in my case and has only gotten worse with years of chronic illness.

[@coolnicegirl8]

There’s actually 15 shades of the Maybelline Lifter Gloss! I found out that CVS has 5 additional exclusive shades.

[@maheephoenix4398]

I agree with you on Maybelline fit me concealers. It’s hydrating, quick to use feels good and looks good under eyes. It was my natural go to daily concealer but it doesn’t cover much ( I have terrible dark circles). So, I have recently started to use E.l.f hydrating camo concealer but I am still not sure if like it.

[@quintecence]

I have combo skin and I love mixing the nyx skin vale and ud stay naked foundation because it's dewy and sets down without the need for powder (because the ud is self setting and satin/natural finish)

[@TheSim1derful]

That AOA Wonderskin Illuminating Primer is my FAVOURITE glossy liquid highlighter ever. I don't use it as an illuminating primer, just a highlighter, so you also get a shitload of product for your buck. But even as a primer it's still great value because it's like $1.35 Canadian!!

[@AmandaZ]

yassss😍

[@Gorditavont33se]

You have the most incredible, detailed and well thought out reviews that are always so incredibly helpful!! PS- you gotta try the new Maybelline Sky High! It checks off all the boxes you love in mascaras. My preferences are similar to yours and the Sky High blew me away!

Amanda, I always come back to your videos and just want to say the Mocha shade in the PF sculpted bronzer is incredible. I was initially bummed that I could only find 1 in my local stores in mocha and surprisingly I love it. I think it might be less orange than the lighter shade and definitely isn't too dark since they blend so well. Anyway my point is thank you for recommending this product! It's the only cream bronzer I have found besides Fentys that aren't orange

Loved the ULTA Bouncy Cream eyeshadow but I tried it with 3 different primers, as well as no primer, and within 30 mins crease crease crease. Within 2 hours I had no shadow left because I was rubbing to remove the crease at work embarrassed. What gives? I need one that dries! The sales girl said it dries. I then tried it without any makeup on my face in case my foundation/concealer was somehow getting in the way and same issue. Sigh, I really loved the Italian ice color but I cannot handle that constant crease! Grrrr lol

The CP lux gloss in tied up was a little bit thick for me and the smell was too much like butterscotch, which I don't like. I do really enjoy CP lux lip oils, the ones from Garden Variety collection, because they have a bit of a shimmer and smell amazing (still not sure of what).Maybelline gloss in moon should be here any day now.
