BEST OF BEAUTY PART 2: SKINCARE + FRAGRANCE I loved in 2021

[@gigixlibra]

Steph is the only influencer that I trust with skincare recommendations. I have bought sooooo many products (Paula’s choice, Summer Fridays, Farmacy, modere, biosil etc) and all have been 100% worth it. Modere made my hair grow like crazy! & I get so many compliments on my skin when I’ve put on Paula’s choice BHA & Summer Fridays AHA.

[@SMLx0]

I’m so happy to hear this!!!

[@OneDimpleDoll]

Does it taste like anything?

[@gigixlibra]

@@OneDimpleDoll modere tastes like a tomato/ fruit juice if that makes any sense

[@morethanhair388]

What exactly did you use from modere that made your hair grow??🥺

[@mermaidsexist4339]

Esthetician here - you use/suggested fantastic products. Professional/Medical grade skincare is the only way 🙏🏼💕 love ya steph

[@user-mg6xh6pg8h]

Please do a GRWM with this makeup! Even if you think it’s the same as all your others 😂 it’s so pretty and these natural looks are the besttt!!

[@SMLx0]

Haha I’ll do one soon!

[@carr881]

Girl if you come out with a fragrance I’m going to be the F I R S T one to buy it! I have bought almost all your recommendations!

[@kellya8267]

Fragrances should hire you to write descriptions, they are hilarious and on point! 🤣 I always know exactly how something is going to smell if you describe it. It's like, Stephanie take me away! (instead of Calgon take me away lol probably only funny to me 😅)

[@SMLx0]

HAhah I would love that job

[@Realzproductreviews]

😊

[@beckygus]

The original clean skin in the purple bottle is seriously amazing. It’s a bit more potent than the reserve version. I think you would love it. I pair it with Glossier You and everyone asks what it is. Super skin like and feminine!

[@roseronay115]

Your description of scents is hysterical. I love it

[@baconbritts]

Story time....so I had covid before Christmas and lost my sense of smell and taste. After I was better I still legitimately could not smell anything for a few weeks. I was at target with my mom and the mix bar vanilla bourbon was finally in stock and the sample was out to try. I just bought it because steph recommended it alot even though I couldn't smell it. I finally was able to smell it a few days ago and omgggg so happy I got it. Long story short I trust stephs recommendations lol

[@Jme112488]

Brittany, I had lost my sense of smell for MONTHS. I was so self-conscious that I couldn't smell myself. One day I spritzed myself with my Juicy Couture (my fav) perfume and I caught a whiff I almost cried!

[@baconbritts]

@@Jme112488 ommmgggg I literally did cry. I had been sniffing my favorite candle everyday to check if it was coming back and one day I got mild mild hints of vanilla and got so excited. You truly don't know how much you'll miss smelling and taste until you have no choice but to deal with it.

[@sandracruz6540]

Glad ur feeling better

[@ashleymoody2441]

Your frangrance videos are my favorite! It would be cool if you did more fragrance hauls throughout the year as well

[@khanhfident]

Girl, the sweater brings out your eyes SO much!!!

[@brandycaltrider5518]

Yay!!! I am always waiting on your recommendations. You are always spot on. I truly value your opinion above everyone else’s. Big fan. Keep doing you girl! Happy New Year! Much love from West Virginia

[@SMLx0]

Aw thank you!!!! I’m honored! Have an amazing year!

[@Jadesofiaxx]

So excited for this because your skin has been looking flawless!! 🙌🏽

[@Realzproductreviews]

Gorgeous skin ❤

[@heathmoge]

I was nodding my head the entire time when you were talking about the peace out acne dots - 100% same and 100% agree. Totally worth the price

[@indysabby]

So excited to try your fragrance! I owe you for turning me on to CK Reveal years back. It's not a fragrance I ever would've considered until I heard your description. I still love it and it made me realize how much I love all "salty air" scents. Thank you and best wishes to you!

[@viviennedejvongsa6658]

I love watching skincare recommendations! I work a normal job and it gets expensive so I always go on KZbin for recommendations for almost everything. It’s nice to know someone has tried it and it’s up to us to decide if we want to buy the product. So don’t feel bad. For the most part my experience buying because an influencer “influenced” me has been 9/10, I’m rarely disappointed. So please keep sharing 💓

[@kaleyberry6771]

Please do an updated skincare routine am and pm. You seriously have saved my skin over the years! Love you!

[@talkingtoalison]

Omg i hope your fragrance launches this year!! I love all of your fragrance recommendations!!

[@sarahpena4107]

This is the best way to spend my Monday! Love hearing all the recommendations ❤️

[@Realzproductreviews]

😍

[@SameeMandzukic]

Yesss! Love hearing your perfume recommendations. Cannot WAIT to get yours! I’m wearing Replica Beach Walk & Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue Intense layered together on my wedding day on April 8th this year. 🤍

[@SMLx0]

Ooo maybe I’ll try d&g with my Eden Roc!

[@lisaann3108]

I love all you perfume recommendations. You are always my go to for fragrances. One of my favorites is Kilian Angels share...love it so much! This Christmas I received Kilian Apple Brandy, and yes it’s a winner!! I think you’ll really like it so I hope you give it a try. I’ve gotten tons of compliments and now I’m switching between the two perfumes. I’m waiting on Mix bar since I had to order it and I’m excited to see how that is, and I definitely can’t wait until your fragrance launches. Thank you as always Steph. Much love 💕

[@pristittt]

We need more fragrance videos! 😍

[@nataliebrown2214]

I got excited when you mentioned the Dr. Dennis Gross spf! I just bought it for the first time 3 weeks ago and it’s definitely my favorite spf for the face ever! Chemical sunscreens always break me out and most mineral ones are so thick. But this one is awesome! Love you’re favorite videos! You always have great recommendations. 😀

[@Clippedfeather]

I love the Mix Bar Vanilla Bourbon. Got it because you recommended it and its the best smelling scent. So happy you shared your opinions. Always dead on for me.

[@christinemays4356]

I love following your channel and your fragrance recommendations. I also love the vanilla bourbon and the clean skin fragrances. They are my go to ones for sure and like you I love putting some on after a bath or shower at night. Whenever I want a new scent because I am a perfume junkie I look back through your videos because I know if it’s something you like and by your descriptions I will probably like it. Thank you for doing fragrance videos!!

[@mayragarcia6064]

I love Clean Skin ! It’s the perfect perfume and it’s cruelty free 💙

[@Kasiabobasia]

So excited to try the Lash serum! I’ve been looking for something without prostaglandins 💕

[@ericaondash5352]

I’m just waiting for the day you come out with a fragrance with the most hysterical and unique description 😜

[@dragana1074]

Omg clean skin, you finally tried it!! I don’t use the reserve version tho. I use the regular clean skin version!!! The classic. Smell it! My favvvvv💜

[@christinecorsale4324]

Thank you so much Steph for these recommendations, I always try things you recommend and end up loving them myself! Quick question bc I have the same undereye milia problem you did, how long did it take for you to notice the milia you had disappear when using the Alpha H Liquid Gold eye cream??

[@anelaperez8552]

🤣 Haha! ‘Billionaires on yachts. White linen vacation people. Not a SINGLE wrinkle in the linen!’ Not quite my vibe, but I can get down with Tarzan & Jane up in the jungle until your perfume comes out! CANNOT WAIT. Idk how long I’ve been watching your videos, but it’s been at least since the days when you used to rock a sock bun and Rosie ate all your beauty blenders. You’ve been cracking me up since then; thank you! ♥️♥️

[@559mile]

I finally bought the covergirl clean fresh powder in medium to use as a bronzer like you've recommended and it applies so much better than my more expensive bronzers. Going to de-clutter my make up and slowly replace stuff with your recommendations since they are all great!

[@SMLx0]

So glad you like it!!!

[@michelmcgregor1684]

I could watch you review and describe fragrances all day!!! 😂😂

[@Soraya0722]

Your makeup looks amazing! Can we get a video on this look? Also, what camera are you using?? It’s super clear! Thanks Steph! Xoxoxo

[@AwkwardlyDbeauty]

I think I need that mask 🤩🤩🤩 and I also need to step up on my skincare game cuz I have been slacking so bad 😭 your skin is amazing Steph 😍😍😍

[@michellem-e7p]

Dermalogica literally JUST came out with a caffeine eye gel. It’s called the Awaken Peptide Eye Gel & I love everything from their brand.

[@lisagomes6305]

I love when you describe the way fragrances smell!!!

[@brittainadams3215]

The Summer Fridays Soft Reset toner is the best! I 100% agree! I have every woman in my family using it now as well! ❤️ you, Steph!

[@SMLx0]

So glad you love it too!!

[@tgalv23]

Such a joy to come home to this on a Monday night! 🥰 you’ve saved my skin over the years, I’m still rockin with the Farmacy Honeymoon Glow and Paula’s Choice cus of you, but I’ll have to pick up some of your new faves 💕

[@tgalv23]

Oh and how could I forget Jazz Club, which changed my life in 2021 😅

[@marqueen9462]

omg, you're coming out with a fragrance??? MANIFESTING THIS YEAR! will buy on the spot!

[@nancyclymer98]

Don’t ever stop being you. If you ever stop making videos, give us like 10 years to prepare 😜 can’t wait for your fragrance to come out. 💕

[@nicolelaeha2292]

I’m so glad you linked your LED mask! I’m lookin around for one!!

[@mckennachoke]

Sometimes I feel like we are long lost sisters LOL I have psoriasis on my scalp, hella sensitive eyes, Milia, all of it!!! Thank god for you 🙏🏼 been watching you since I was 15 and I’m 25 now ❤️‍🔥

[@lrsa03]

Love the Tarzan and Jane reference 🤣🤣🤣 I live on an island so that is SCREAMING at me to buy!

[@AudreyVascik]

GIRLLLLL!!! You’re just gonna quickly throw that you’re making a whole ass fragrance like that 😍 MY WALLET IS READY!!

[@Stephanie-ku7hz]

Bought the Alastin moisturizer and youth watery oil per your recommendation because you never let me down girl! :)

[@dawnnash5301]

Hi Stephanie, Happy New Year ! When would you say is the best to use the Vit C, is it better to use at night or better in the day?

[@Kate-J]

Ugh Steph I want to buy all your faves! My boyfriend tried Jazz Club this year and he loves it! I might have to steal it from him to try

[@laurenangelo9345]

Wait how did I miss this?? You’re coming out with a fragrance?? Instant buy for me 😍

[@lyrapeach1827]

Prescription retinol is a game changer its pretty much all I need to have glowy skin. Did you try the lowest percentage (0.025%)? And only once a week? Also you have to stop all other actives while you get used to it (vitamin c, acids, etc.) just use face wash, moisturizer and sunscreen.

[@jenniferleingang4335]

I love that you mixed up your recommendations. I own a lot of the things you've recommended (love: Angel Share, Summer Friday AHA, Watery Youth Oil - will be trying some of your other recs) and it's great that you also mentioned medical-grade products. I need a little more at this point in life :( If you know of a great medical grade eye treatment that doesn't cause milia, would love to hear about it. I agree about the liquid collagen. I had hair loss from COVID & this is helping me! ❤

[@dragana1074]

Yes girl, can’t wait for your perfume launch. Make sure it’s available to Canada 🥰🥰🥰

[@becm963]

I use medical grade skincare for certain products for my Melasma. My tretinoin gel is prescribed by dermatologist, too. The rest of my skincare is fairly reasonable in price. I use products that are for sensitive skin. I change my routine based on the weather and on my how my skin is feeling.

[@stephanier6285]

Love your hair! Please do a GRWM/hair tutorial on this look!

[@jillfratis8004]

Thank you for the recommendation for the eyelash serum!! I had to give up my grande lash for the exact reason you mentioned 😩, I was so sad because my lashes were growing, but my eyes looked so dark and I even noticed the whites of my eyes seemed a little gray…

[@Vivian_85]

I have 4 out of those perfumes that you mentioned. Yes I got them the first time you mentioned them lol I got the MiX Bar perfume for Christmas and it does smell expensive for only being 20! Love all your recommendations!

[@sharonjones3827]

You are the only person I have heard describe Baccarat Rouge 540 like I do! It does smell metallic to me. I think it smells like the perfume a robot would wear. :)

[@patricia2674]

👋 👋 I really enjoyed both your vlogs… thx you. Angel’s share is the best!! I feel like I’m getting blessed every time I spray it, don’t judge me 😊 💕 Anyways… wanna share a scent with you, it’s called Sands and Sable. This smells like the beach, for real. I get compliments every time. 💕

[@coffeewithmysunshine2506]

Sooo excited for part 2!! I get so many products because of your recommendations 🥰💕😁 Thank you so much girl!!!

[@kristinjeter]

I didn’t know it was official that you are launching a fragrance! AHHHHH🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@emmjohnston5591]

I need you to show us your fragrance collection 😍 pleaseeee

[@marcianademenescu1723]

Yr makeup is amazing. Always on point but in this vid is wow 🌺🦄😍

[@muirghealclaire]

Bride to be here and would love to hear beauty treatments (nails makeup tan etc) you are doing and when in the run up to your wedding. Adore your videos! Only online recommendations I trust 💕

[@meredithroebuck]

I would love to try the vitamin c serum and the retinol. Every skincare item that I’ve tried from your recommendation is amazing!

[@ashleymoody2441]

Sometimes in the morning I am too lazy to wash my face so I use those Sephora glow pads instead, love them!

[@suzannetaylor6285]

Love your perfume recommendations…. I need to try Killians Angel Share.. I do love Skin, my everyday scent, I also wear this to the gym! Not offensive and much better than my BO! Happy New Year

[@arianaelizalde4082]

Can you do a GRWM but show all the products you use for prepping your face! XO

[@ooMarissaxx]

Girl, if you like daily microfoliant, do yourself a favor and try the amore pacific enzyme powder! 10x upgrade. And gentle enough to use on the daily

[@thekepple1]

Does anyone know or has Steph said where her ring (not engagement ring) is from? Its the ring on her right hand, its GORGEOUS!

[@PrincessCVmomma]

I cannot wait for your perfume to come out! It will be amazing!

[@DrWisteriaRose]

I like Kora Organics under eye oil, it contains caffeine and lots of other good stuff. It doesn’t say anything about milia in the description, and it’s not a serum but I love this product.

[@reginehunter]

I have that tinted Alastin sunscreen (and about half the products on this list lol) but that one shade seems to adjust to the skin tone. It looks really light but I’m Barcelona in the Nars foundation and it blends seamlessly on my skin. I let me friend use some on a trip, she’s Mexican with a deep copper skin tone and it blended right in on her too!

[@miraxostyles768]

I get styes very easily! The eye doctor told me to use Johnson and Johnson baby shampoo because there’s something in it that helps clean the oils on the eye lids and won’t burn!

[@kcrisppp]

Love your fragrance recommendations! I am getting married this July and am on the hunt for a wedding perfume so I will have to check our your green bottle Armani recommendation! Have you tried Aerin fragrances?

[@emmjohnston5591]

I LIVE for your fragrance reviews!

[@samanthabissell22]

I'm hoping I'm not the only subscriber who thinks this I'm looking forward for more of the wedding series fabulous video

[@24carlam]

U make me wana buy all those perfumes with the way you describe the scents!!! Especially the new York lounge wearing a leather jacket one!!! Lol..

[@olivialivelovelaugh412]

The ordinary makes a caffeine serum. I don’t know if it causes milia. Also super inexpensive. I’m new to your channel, love your videos!!you should also try the niche perfume Pas se soir is great warm deep notes. Also Gris charnel great scents

[@deeb6501]

I’ve tried the Sephora pads. So budget friendly. Also Inky List makes a caffeine serum for under eye. 💕

[@SMLx0]

Need to try that serum!

[@careym8561]

I really really hope that alpha h eye cream works for me. Just ordered it and it’s pricey! But if it would get rid of it, be worth it.

[@teresamaria5804]

Thank you for the video I CAN NOT WAIT FOR YOUR FRAGRANCE!!❤️

[@LaladaBeauty]

Hi beautiful! I love Jazz Club! You brought out some amazing fragrances!

[@katiegoodrick9416]

Have you tried mixing Eden roc with the light blue? I feel like that would be a good combo💕

[@Thepowderroomlondon]

I have the Eden Roc Body Creme and it’s just a stunning, luxurious scent!

[@SMLx0]

Need to get the body crème!

[@mariestopa]

Love love products from Osmosis and Skinbeautifulrx!! Definitely recommend

[@andiidavis]

“…I don’t even know - it helps!” Seems good enough for me 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@missjoasia123]

I’m same with the oil around the eyes. Sensitive to it and it can clog pores.

[@melolivares2099]

Loved this video ! Do you mind letting us know who does your Botox ? I'm a newbie and I'm terrified of going to just any old place.

[@ChrissyVee5]

Every time I see a video of yours pop up, I look at the thumbnail and think “wow she is so gorgeous!”

[@jocelynsage7976]

omg yay! I’ve been patiently waiting for this ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@ANJALIPATEL-ok2ht]

Love the inkey list caffeine eye cream!

[@liliguerrero1113]

"Tarzan and Jane up in the jungle" I'm dead 🤣 thanks for doing the most on describing scents for us 🙌🏻😂

[@mattahwright8572]

How are you so good at explaining fragrances lmao! I have smelled the Replica Jazz Club perfume and all the descriptions you said is exactly how it smells lol! Leathery, boozy, loungey 🤣

[@SMLx0]

Haha I’m glad the descriptions make sense for you bc sometimes I’m not sure if they will 🤣

[@LP-xu2qx]

You have to try NIOD FECC as an eye serum. It is unbelievable!! I think it’s just what you are looking for under your eye cream.

[@SMLx0]

Need to look into that!

[@sagittariusoul23]

I love Clean Reserve - Skin! And Baccarat Rouge smells like stale juice spilled on me lol I was so disappointed because everyone LOVES it and I wanted to love it too.

[@2c2love2b]

have you tried "the harmonist" perfumes? specifically the metal flower scent? i'm super curious to hear your opinion, thank you!

[@brightangelz15]

A lot of the review comments on the Target Mix Bar scent say it’s good for layering so u might want to try with that other one u mentioned!

[@SMLx0]

Good idea!!

[@jeannacosme7372]

Jazz club smells sooo good and is mine and my boyfriends favorite !

[@misztori]

The Alastin tinted sunscreen is what I wear to work every day! I’m outside at work quite a bit & it’s perfect! I’m on my third tube! Alsoooo, now I need that damn Armani perfume! 😩😭

[@SMLx0]

So perfect! Glad you love!!

[@sweetsimpleslowlife2709]

Mix: bar Vanilla Bourbon 🥰❤️👌😍 Pleasant surprise, all around fantastic fragrance with excellent performance.

[@AyH25]

Oh man I need something for jawline lifting and mouth lines area too. not sure if i should do an in-office treatment or that radio frequency device, or something else hmmm
