Omg can’t stop looking at your eyes please do a tutorial ❤❤❤

[@lynnleeuwenburg2908]

When she gets to the essence eyeshadow palettes, she tells exactly how she did it.

[@bolddecember9557]

Love your eye makeup ❤ awesome video!

[@isabelletremper5644]

I really like the fact that you mix foundations. I'm 60 years old and realized mixing my foundations gives me the perfect look. Ladies mix your makeup,shampoo and conditioner together

[@michellespaeth7608]

I just love your sense of humor. I love all the recommendations but I stay for the outtakes.😂Priceless. I’m florn! 👍🏻

[@lexifmakeup]

Also the eye look in the video is stunning!!!!! It’s so something I would love to wear! Do you have a tutorial?

[@zidselvirkargerbok-ochfilm4205]

I ❤ to see a tutorial too 🙏

[@jlkitz1775]

No apologies needed: it's the holiday season ☺️✌🏾🥂. So many great products, thanks for sharing!

[@lorenward3733]

We have the same skin type I will be trying the flower beauty foundation

[@WendyMHammer]

You’re eye makeup is FIRE in this video! Please do a video on it and maybe an updated hair video. My curls feel so drab!

[@kalena7126]

"Florn" is the new "gruel." I love it.

[@ginnyburley9552]

I have several foundations that work really well for me. I get tempted to explore others that are being hyped, and I can’t say how many times I’ve gone back to my favorites and find that I love them more than the new ones.

[@allih8021]

I will be forever grateful to you for introducing me to the Flower Beauty Heatwave Bronzer! I'm in my mid-40's with dry skin and like you, I'm pretty fair with a cool undertone and have found most bronzers to look muddy or orange on me. Not good. This? Looks like a DREAM. Whether I use it as contour/bronzer or alone as my "blush" it always looks stunning. And every time I do someone will inevitably say "your skin looks so beautiful - what are you wearing?" It's this. It's always this. I have no other bronzers in my collection and am totally happy about that. It's my holy grail, ride or die fave. Hope you and your family had a wonderful Christmas - and wishing you a very happy 2023!

[@dianeparks9475]

I hear your videos through my hearing aids and sound is perfect! (Lost my hearing this summer from pneumococcal meningitis.😢. Hospital for a month.). I love all your videos and your humor is always a breath of fresh air! Happy New Year!🎉

[@sherylmerville3971]

Believe it or not Wet and Wild concealer is wonderful!! I'm old so dry skin and it's perfect medium coverage.

[@theIaurenshow]

I feel like you’d love the Pistachio shade in the Tower 28 lip gloss. It’s a little darker than oat and instead of a peach undertone it has a pinker nude shade to it! I love Coconut as well, it’s a medium toned neutral pink.

[@sgullion7753]

Love my Uoma One & Done and the color matches my Benefit! I love the brow gel product on the other end rather than another spoolie that I don't need!

[@tassiecorbett7480]

Great suggestions on products. I hope you do a glam New Years Eve look video. Love the ideas you have.

[@elainev670]

Hello Mandy, this is the first time I am stumbling on your chanel. Immediately love your vibes when you said it made you anxious to sharpen away the high end lip liners 🤣. It's a pity that some of the products you recommended are only available in the USA 😓. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to your next video!

[@MissChicas1]

Thank you for sharing all these great finds! I'd love to know where your sweater is from, please! It's so cute!!

[@melissam7379]

Just bought the Flower Beauty bronzer and I’m obsessed!!!! The tone is so beautiful

[@marybeth23]

I not only love watching you, but I look forward to the end clips for a giggle! You are the funniest, you florn me away!! 😂

[@lorenward3733]

Hi Mandy love the loreal serum I am dry skin 41 great foundation love it

[@sandybowers5085]

I love that one as well. I use it as a mixer for my less moisturizing foundations❤

[@npolfus1]

Your my fave beauty blogger bcuz u explain ur reasons for liking or not liking things, in a way that makes sense! Plus you’re beautiful!!🌺

[@amysmithssportsandmakeup1397]

Great favorites Mandy- I'll be curious to see how you compare the new milani mascara to the thrive one. I heard the powder is nice too

[@gravincas3916]

I love the wet and wild dewy foundation. It's so skin like and pretty. My oil doesn't break through it, and dry crusty parts don't show with it. It just goes on so beautifully. I've also found the makeup forever cream bronzer and really like that as well!

[@belterbeauty3191]

Thx alot mandy lv the products u shared I have some of them like the jumper too 😀

[@catherinekelley60]

Thank you for this. I saved it to make a shopping list. I want to be floorn as well😁

[@kristinemarsh7124]

thank you for the content you make 😊 so enjoy watching your videos

[@ameliah8685]

I love the Almay Healthy Hue blushes. It's not a new release but one I've loved all year.

[@lisaannehill]

At 58, I'm finding a drop of face oil in my foundation helps keep my face from feeling tight due to dryness. I love doing this with the L'Oreal Infallible foundation ❤

[@lisahersey6851]

The essence eyeshadow palettes are my favourite I bought every single one the of them. Only eyeshadow I use now. Even better then high end! ❤️

[@margaretohoro9066]

I use the elf brow wax stick around the perimeter of my mouth to stop lipstick from bleeding works great on mature lips. Thank for a great video. Love your recommendations💕😊

[@lexifmakeup]

I’m going to try out that wet n wild gloss, so pretty❤

[@carriemeadows3518]

I love this current look and am definitely going to recreate it. Thanks for the inspiration, and also I appreciate that there are tons of releases all the time, so you don't really get to know them unless you use them quite a bit. That you've used these enough to really love and recommend them is key!

[@UnpurrfectRobyn]

I bought that elf shape & stay brow wax stick at your recommendation and I love it! My brows aren't terribly unruly so I use that first, brush through, then fill in with my brow pencil, and that's it. I no longer need to use a brow gel which is good because I don't really like the feel of most brow gels. I have the NYX control freak brow gel and it's not bad, but the elf is still cheaper so yay for saving money! My first Alter Ego order should be arriving today! I ordered the Harmony and Shadow Kiss palettes as well as their eyeshadow primer. I'm so excited because ND is way outside of my budget, but I'm always drawn to her palettes.

[@bethallen7723]

Love your channel! I agree with the lip liners... That's what I do. Apply lip liner and blend it in, then apply gloss. It looks better on me than lipstick. I don't like the feel of lipstick but pencils feel like nothing and gloss feels pleasant

[@celestepiccolo6586]

Your husband did a great job picking out that sweater for you. ❤

[@julieligon8177]

Beautiful looks! Thank you for sharing. Not sure about my favorite palette for the year... Will give it some serious thought. May love, peace & joy come back to you each & every day!

[@sandybowers5085]

Have you heard about the new tubing mascara from Milani? It’s a total dupe for the Thrive!! Even the packaging looks similar. Would love to see you review it!!! Thrive has been my holy grail mascara FOREVER!!! Love that there is FINALLY a great dupe for it❣️❣️❣️

[@karensonnentag1882]

Bought some Sydney Grace shadows for myself after watching one of your videos, wow they are so smooth! I cannot wait to try them all. Got a great deal with the advent calendar and 2 palettes on clearance!

[@marysteimer8222]

Love you!!! Your videos always are so informative and I love that you’re not into drama, and REALLY into makeup. hope you had a lovely holiday with your family

[@lorenward3733]

L'Oreal infallible bronzer some great powder blushes

[@amberwright3373]

I didn't realize till seeing this video how many of your recommendations I've picked up this year! Alot have become staples for me as well so keep them coming !

[@nancybarrett6266]

Happy Holidays everyone Mandy loving your new setup especially with the holiday decorations it looks amazing

[@ashleys7413]

As someone else mentioned, please try the Makeup Revolution cream bronzer! It’s amazing and performs just as well as any high end product for a fraction of the cost!!

[@ScentsibleHomeWithJamie]

Maybelline’s Sky High Primer makes the Sky High Mascara look even better!

[@jennifermolina4396]

I hope that you get PR so you don’t have to purchase all of this makeup. You are always on top of your videos and give great explanations of each product. Love your eyes. They always look beautiful. I hope you had a great Christmas. I also heard that Milani has a new mascara that is supposed to be an exact dupe for the Thrive (which is my all time favorite). I ordered it and am excited for it to come in.

[@bethallen7723]

I saw that too. Jen Phelps reviewed it.. I love her as well as Mandy!

[@patsysnell1496]

Love your channel . First started watching it to see how to apply the Elf bite size carnival candy eyeshadow palette & have watched ever since. Can't wait to buy some of the products you mentioned especially the flower bronzer. Thanks so much. Have a bright and sparkling New Year ✨️ 😍💄

[@agnesvarhelyi1123]

I have combo skin and I LOVE that Essence foundation, it lasts so well on my skin!

[@tinagarry7230]

Thanks for all the recommendations. Do you have a link for the Alter Ego pallet you showed us in your video. I didn’t see it in your descriptions. Thanks so much!

[@deborahelliott9082]

I discovered Jason Wu eyebrow powder... Wow! So nice. Paired with Elf BrowWow, perfection!

[@sereed1976]

Hi Mandy! You have got to try the Flower Beauty Shimmer & Strobe highlight palette. It is SO good! I know you are a Flower Beauty fan & I absolutely get it! Happy New Year ❤

[@noneofurbusiness5223]

Oily-combo. I like essence base makeup. It stays on pretty good

[@denisewoodward3486]

The Flower bronzer is the only item in my small collection that I have a backup of!

[@evakearns2992]

Isn’t it just fantastic!! It rivals any of my high end bronzers and reminds me of my Hourglass Diffused Bronze Light. I also have a backup 😊

[@1liberaldem]

Based on your recommendation, I bought the Flower Beauty gel cheek/lip in peach crush, and I love it. It's my favorite cream blush. Oh, and I agree with you on the Flower Beauty bronzer. It's the perfect shade. I don't remember if you've tried the Makeup revolution cream bronzer? It's fantastic.

[@cattandneil1504]

Loved this video! Especially loving your eyeshadow!

[@dionline88]

I'm in complete agreement with the Flower Beauty bronzer - in love with that thing... every single day. But the Maybelline Sky High mascara - it's a tubing mascara, it is NOT hard to remove! Warm water is the only thing needed!! Ok, now that I'm done watching, the Hard Candy liquid liners in the metallic shades (I don't have them here...) but there are gorgeous teal, a purple and green that are stunning! I failed to pick up the charcoal - darn it - and a yellow that I can't imagine anyone looking good in. But they last all day long and they have a lash growth serum in them! My Walmart has already marked them down on clearance - I so hope Hard Candy doesn't stop making them - they are that good!!

[@liftingdietitian]

I love your eye look! What did you used to create that look?

[@christineb6841]

Great video, Mandy! I love a lot of these, too! I purchased many of these products based on your recommendations and I look forward to seeing what you recommend in 2023!

[@jomyers9523]

I was at Walgreens today and they had clearances out the Revlon Candid Foundation, and the No7 translucent powder, I hope they are not discontinuing them

[@mayamagdy6540]

The no 7 powder unfortunately has been reformulated to a new crappy formula. I would stock up before they sell out

[@annfairfax1]

I would love to know the exact make you’re wearing in this video. It’s gorgeous. As a newbie to your channel, I had a very hard time following along. Some products don’t seem to be listed and are not in the order you presented. Just a thought.

[@karennicholson4167]

Try the Tarte Tartlette tubing mascara before you repurchase the Thrive. I find it to be so much better, less spiky, fuller and lasts!

[@roxyvomteich]

I am so sad that there's no way to get my hands on Flower Beauty products here in Germany. They look so awesome and everytime I see you and Jen Phelps rave about their stuff I'm getting jealous. 🥴 I also need to look into the L'Oréal Age perfect serum foundation, heard so much good stuff about it. Or every other L'Oréal foundation as well, I only have the true match and that's definitely one of my top 2 foundations.

[@moniquetibble2309]

If you like the maybelline sky high, you need to try the Milani highly rated tubing mascara, for me that’s the closest I have found to thrive.

[@sandybowers5085]

This video florned me away❣️🥰👍🏼Thanks so much for all your awesome videos this year!! I love your channel!!!

[@janicemanville7630]

What lashes are you wearing? Love❤

[@lorenward3733]

Mandy do still use elf bite size palette

[@mistichristensen7088]

The newest milani mascara is suppose to dupe the Thrive cosmetics tubing mascara.

[@michellecaudill7936]

You did good Mandy!

[@lorenward3733]

Milian has a new mascara that is a dupe for thrive

[@debrapavlica6772]

I think that’s fluffernutter! Like the sandwich.

[@MyCleverHandle]

The Flower Beauty foundation sounds good, but one of the KZbinrs said that Flower's website had totally shut down awhile back and wasn't slated to reopen until January. I wonder if this means they're reformulating or discontinuing some products-? Guess I'll have to go poke around...Thanks for the video Mandy! Edit: PS: The Wet N Wild Cloud Pout Lip Mousse in Marshmallow Madness makes a great, smoothing color corrector for the inner corners of the bridge of my nose. I use other colors of this product on my lips all the time, but that particular color was all wrong for my lips but works great near my eyes. Gives you another idea of how to describe the texture besides smoothing: matte and lasting.

[@kellywolfe5930]

Great video 💙💛❤💚💜

[@sdevarenne28]

Would the Flower Beauty priming whip be good under a powder foundation as well? Or just liquid?

[@sandrakirksey6378]

I love the NYX serum concealer, I'm 75 so heavy concealer does not do good on my skin I'm dry and it does not settle in my lines, over a color corrector.

[@debrapavlica6772]

This may blow your mind! Milano just came out with a tubing mascara in pretty much the same color as the thrive tube! And it’s already been reviewed as just as good as the thrive mascara!

[@debrapavlica6772]

Milani autocorrect, dang it!

[@lorenward3733]

Never tried anything from essence but this year I will so many you tuber rave about essence

[@brookeashton6169]

I had written off essence for eyeshadow , but all my favorite KZbinrs rave about the $4 palettes, so I tried a few of them and……… they were awful for me😂. I wish I thought they were amazing because that price point is great. 😊

[@amytatum6858]

Are you using a eye primer ?

[@billyboblove8784]

Your eyes look beautiful

[@gingergirl8797]

"...and florn was born...". LMBO! I make up words all the time, not deliberately, we should 'colab' on a dictionary...... LOL!

[@LasCoquettes]

Take the sponge off the primer, Indo it with the concealar

[@notimportant123]

The sound is really rough. You know that sound when someone yells into a microphone, it kinda sounds like that but then sometimes also very echoey.

[@lynnleeuwenburg2908]

Unfortunately, the BH spotlight and highlight is sold out.

[@Songbird8302]

How "subtle" is subtle, Mandy??

[@nancybarrett6266]

The Essence links doesn't work 😒 I tried both multiple times 🙃

[@deborah972]

Amazing make up

[@michellecaudill7936]

My algebra wax I started using that pan and mine’s always very soft so I’ve never had that rip here is out and I only have a hairs in the front of my brows I have to draw the back half on but then again I mid 60s

[@annepapillon]

If you are ever looking to make your video's even better, you might look into sound? To me the sound on your videos is a bit screetching. I looked it up and the word is apparently shrill (i'm not a native speaker). Compared to other creators that I watch anyway. I dont think it's your voice:) Maybe I'm the only one that hears this though?

[@annewood8626]

I have tried to watch your videos several times but I give up. You talk waaay too fast for me! I am from the deep south. We talk slow down here, lol.

[@BilalDemiroglu]

Hello mandy my love I love you. My love flower. Your name is my love flower, my dear.

[@jessabeauty917]

Eeeek. Look at the camera and show the products to the CAMERA not to the side screen! It’s so hard to watch even with good recs!

[@trinityweinaug3466]

eeeek. maybe you should let her do what she wants with HER yt channel

[@lizzytreehouse]

Wow you speak so fast. You don’t say the name of products clearly. I want to hear each word you say of great suggestions.
