Chatty GRWM using NOTHING NEW! 💜 Random Makeup Tips, Thoughts on Social Media & More

[@slashedbeauty]

What do you think- do you feel like a lot of beauty content is so focused on ✨new new new✨ that we don’t enjoy the stuff we actually buy because it’s just “on to the next one”?? Or if a video doesn’t feature something new, is it boring/repetitive to you?

[@mariabarbaramarquez4698]

You nailed it! I personally don’t try something new often because I enjoy what I’ve purchased after recommendations here on KZbin. I’ve recently bought some new eyeshadow pallets and don’t foresee buying anything new because again, I enjoy what I’ve purchased from recommendations here.

[@hbarlaam]

I agree. And it's become sad for me because beauty videos have been one of my special interests for years. But I found out last year that I have allergies to some common ingredients. So much of the time when I see a beauty video, I can't use 95% of the products. I know that's specifically a "me" issue, but it's made it very obvious to me that much of the content is focused on new, new, new rather than "use whatever you have handy to create this type of look".

[@slashedbeauty]

​@@hbarlaam that's exactly the type of content I want to sprinkle in more. And it's crazy too because sometimes I'll do a video where I don't mention the product-- because it's more about the application or tip-- and people get angry that I didn't tell them what I used! like that wasn't the point!! haha

[@jo4vt]

Love this video, definitely make more like this!

[@mfrawg]

Honestly, you're the only beauty influencer I follow anymore so anything you show is new to me unless you've used it a bunch of times before 😂 I'm the type to follow just because I liked a person's vibe and then I'm there for whatever content they want to put out! So, follow your inspiration and we'll be here to watch :)

[@lynettewalsh4918]

I do agree that once a new product is out, everyone is talking about it on social media. It can get to the point that it gets boring. That's why I enjoyed this video. You talk about products used in the past that are still loved and it can remind us about it "oh yah I have/use that product".

[@cath3rine9]

I like watching a mix of new products and tried-and-true. Shop my stash type videos are fun because they inspire me to love what I’ve got! I love that contour hack on your jaw- I need to try that! It looked so good!! That covergirl lip balm is amazing, it’s one of my go to faves

[@katiebrunner4376]

I love a mix of new products and using what’s In your stash/inspo

[@bobbieg3220]

Your makeup look is gorgeous!! I like seeing influencers using the makeup they have to create new looks with them. I know I can't afford to go out and buy new things all the time but also get "stuck" doing new looks with the things I have. Thank you Miranda for all your hard work helping us with makeup.

[@shelbyfisher3734]

I love inspo and product reviews, but I also love "updated" reviews or "ride or die, I have used this for the past two years" videos. When I'm struggling to find the right product, it is so encouraging to hear a beauty content creator love a product so much that they cannot be swayed by new releases. That longevity is so persuasive to me. Honestly that's part of the reason why you're my favorite beauty channel after watching sooo many other channels. You keep it fun and new but relatable and honest at the same time 😄

[@monicapatton1405]

Yes! Love when they come back for an update on the products they have reviewed. Even just popping on a short with an end of day after a review. Because sometimes it just doesn’t hold up but some of us run out and buy it.

[@slashedbeauty]

So true, Monica!

[@slashedbeauty]

Thanks so much Shelby!

[@LinzSee]

I personally do not get sick of creators reusing the same products over and over. That to me is a much better review than just a monthly favorite or “try on”. I’m not personally buying much makeup right now but if I was going to buy something, it would be something that is a long time love of someone I watch regularly.

[@samantha312314]

A nice mix of what is new and “oldies” but goodies is my favorite

[@katiebrunner4376]

Love that highlight so much

[@slashedbeauty]

it's a go to because it matches everything!!

[@alexmiles40]

I think this is one of your very best videos ever, and I've been watching you for years. Keep up the good work! Your biggest asset is your honest, bubbly personality

[@slashedbeauty]

That means so much!!! I definitely want to do more laid back loosey goosey videos like this. So glad you liked it ❤️

[@Apayned1]

I feel like if you are sharing your actual favorite items instead of only all new things just makes me more happy about your channel and authentic content ❤

[@kathleenmoortel5449]

I have been thinking about this with regards to the indie eyeshadow palette boom. There’s no way we as beauty lovers can keep up with the amount of palettes coming out. It’s not financially feasible. I appreciate watching older products show up in videos. I have no problem with you using products over and over.

[@slashedbeauty]

Totally-- and even if we're gifted the product, it's not like our viewers will keep up either. That's part of the reason I had avoided ColourPop for SO many years because it was all limited edition releases nearly every week. Once they started focusing more on permanent every day products, I got so much more into the brand.

[@jossaylen248]

Def prefer a mix! All your tips are amazing too

[@slashedbeauty]

Yay! Thank you!

[@carolsullivan2599]

Love your bangs - I have bangs, and I’ll never not have them because my hairline is low and forehead space needs the illusion that bangs allow. I will always follow you. Even if I won’t wear every look, I love how you give great tips (marinating concealer!) and you teach technique. I’m 77 and I love the way makeup still works and is still fun.

[@slashedbeauty]

I love that, Carol!! Thank you so much ❤️❤️🫶🏼

[@chericoffman6321]

Dang I need to check that pillow out! I love a good shop my stash video because it does give me great ideas for what I already have. Of course y’all have to balance between new and old.

[@michellediaz9]

I enjoy a mix of both! ❤

[@deena681]

I love watching your videos and I get so much inspiration from them. This was great video. I do like a mix because every time I see something new I always wonder “what does Miranda think of this.” Definitely agree with you on the contour. Even the high end ones seem like bronzers and are difficult to work with.

[@slashedbeauty]

Great to hear!! Yeah sometimes I see what other KZbinrs are doing and so many people do “trying new makeup” as nearly every video and I’m like but do yall still like what you tried last time or last week or…?? 🤪

[@jackiestone5808]

I love inspirational videos and new reviews. I think it’s less overwhelming with new reviews if a creator uses the new products for a while and then does a roundup of their thoughts on multiple products, even ranking them and comparing them to their OGs, (like different foundations). I love your content!❤.

[@slashedbeauty]

I absolutely love that idea, thanks for the recommendation!

[@missivonne]

OMG! I didn't think I could love a mascara more than the It mascara, but Panorama is even better!

[@BarbItalia]

LOVE LOVE LOVE your hair!! My DIL just got the same cut. And thank you for the chin trick!

[@slashedbeauty]

Thank you!!! I’m loving it as well (especially when my bangs cooperate lol)

[@sandhyafrancis3242]

I love your naturally curly hair!

[@slashedbeauty]

Thank you! 🫶🏼

[@4bratkab565]

Old and new is Fun and maybe some makup hacks 😅❤❤Love the affordable version since not everyone can or want the high end! Colourpop in the sticks i love it ! You new hairstyle with bangs is very youthful and cute Miranda 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤

[@slashedbeauty]

Thank you! I've been really liking this style!

[@pamelaanderson9884]

I love a mix of inspiration videos and review videos…

[@Genevieve-ni5el]

I like a mixture of new products and old but love seeing reviews of the new affordable drugstore products. I can’t watch people using the same products over and over no matter what the brand

[@neovalkyrie0]

I need to use my Moira products more. They’re such a good brand. Love how this came out. You’re so pretty 😍 ❤

[@slashedbeauty]

I've really been loving their products and working them into my routine more!

[@miaweeks522]

Hi, new subscriber here! I'm on a very limited budget and only purchase new makeup when I run out so i prefer empties, tutorials, shop my stash, and project pan style videos.

[@kimberlyfigueroa5079]

Your look is amazing 👏 always look forward to ur videos! Maybe a combo of your old makeup and new ? I now u already did a curly hair reuteen but can you do another one on your hair that you have today it look amazing! As I curly girl myself I'm very interested 😌?

[@slashedbeauty]

This is my most recent one and what I’m still doing! kzbin.info/www/bejne/kF6koWmJm7hjn6csi=_jw-zjTgNuyiZaqc

[@lisamarie5918]

Your eyes look so great with these peachy tones! My favorite videos are the Application of the Makeup itself...the starting of a blank canvas, and incorporating colors, to make the pretty end result, is so relaxing and interesting. Therefore it doesn't matter to me if the makeup is New or a Shop my Stash type of video. I do like to see what's new, just to keep up with my love of makeup, but I will only purchase something I feel excited about, and that I think will work on me - not just because it's new. And also, if I feel I'm connecting with a content creator (such as yourself!) I will watch all of the videos, whatever they're about! 😍💝

[@EnvyBlu]

I feel exactly the same 😊

[@danielsibbel8343]

Miranda i love hair care and giving scalp massages

[@Scarletrose031]

I am really enjoying videos where youtubers are simply pulling out what they already have, and using their current go-to products. I like seeing content creators encouraging us to reach into our own collections to re-explore old favorites in new ways, with tips and tricks thrown in for application as well. Alot of the time, we already have products that are similar or work in similar ways to super new or viral products, and we get overwhelmed with so much new stuff that we forget about what we already have and have enjoyed. If you haven't heard of Julie Dawn Olsen then I encourage you to check her out, she does videos exactly along those lines, has a pretty good following and people are really enjoying her content. Loved your video, and just seeing you have fun applying makeup while chatting.

[@cynthiacampbell5011]

Lol Miranda when the blush fell out, happened to me too with my colorpop blush, cheap packaging yes for more videos of makeup we already have and new releases keep up the good work 😊😊

[@slashedbeauty]

Thank you!!! lol I’m glad it didn’t break at least!!

[@use_ur_brain4good]

I go back to your older videos to see what you were talking about a year or more ago. I find most influencers speak about the same content, whether drugstore or high-end, and it gets so monotonous. There is such a saturation of (new) products debuting on a weekly basis these days that I find it difficult to keep up. This is the reason I enjoy watching your older videos. Some of the products you discuss in your older videos are still new to me. A mix, however, is fine with me. Keep up the incredible work.

[@slashedbeauty]

Yes, and partially also brands feeding into it by releasing so many new products/discontinuing old ones... the other day I was trying to link to a product I LOVED that literally just came out over summer and it was already discontinued!

[@brittnieparker9606]

I am so happy I clicked on this video because I've had neck surgery and I have tried over 50 pillows sense then and can never find a good one and I am definitely trying that one. Thanks. Love both new products and other ones of older fav ones because I can only afford maybe one product a month I still really want that skin tint so bad so next month hopefully I'll be able too. I have been watching makeup videos for like 10 years but I have anxiety which is dumb because I get too scared to even play with makeup. It is very strange cus I know I can wash it off but my brain doesn't care. I have to push myself to use makeup this year. Also love your bangs. I can't cus I have a cow lick right in the front middle if my head lol.

[@slashedbeauty]

I am still loving the pillow!!! I tried SOOO many and this is the first one that can support me in most positions. Have you ever heard of pre-shower makeup? A lot of people like to play with makeup RIGHT before they know they're about to take a shower so there's really no pressure, it can be super kooky and messy because you're already planning on washing it away 😋

[@PodieM18]

The Covergirl Fresh lip balm in Bliss You Berry is next level, it looks better on me than my Clinique Black Honey, it feels better too 😊 / Miranda how would you compare the Panaroma in comparison to the OG Voluminous? I've recently gotten more into a wow mascara look, wondering if I should go with the Panaroma or the Maybelline Sky High?

[@slashedbeauty]

Honestly I was never a fan of the OG Voluminous because it flaked SO much for me! This one doesn't at all. This one is slightly lighter than Sky High as well so a bit less of a learning curve in terms of clumpiness.

[@PodieM18]

@@slashedbeauty thanks so much for your reply and information on the products, much appreciated ☺️💖

[@missivonne]

When in Moira coming to Ulta -- or better yet, Target?

[@slashedbeauty]

I wish!! Apparently you can find them in some HEB grocery stores!

[@missivonne]

Sephora's high-end and luxury products are, of course way too expensive; however, do they have any budget-friendly products under their house-brand line? Their eyeshadow palettes aren't good, BUT I've really liked their foundation and their Size Up mascara, and I didn't think they were any more expensive than drugstore products.

[@katiebrunner4376]

I totally let my concealer marinate. A good 5 minutes

[@slashedbeauty]

it makes such a difference with coverage!

[@Samtara1984]

Love your videos regardless of what you use Oh did you get your account issues resolved

[@slashedbeauty]

I did!!! Thank you for asking. Tbh I still don’t really know what happened but I submitted my ID for like the 5th time and they finally accepted it as proof that I am me?? lol

[@katiebrunner4376]

Can you can tell me where your head band is from?? I feel like I need that

[@slashedbeauty]

It's from the brand Vintage Cosmetic CO! I don't know if they have this pattern anymore but they have similar headbands on amazon: (affiliate) amzlink.to/az0qAAZRwl4UR

[@rachelrae860]

Miranda I don't like that new mascara at all. I love your look it's gorgeous 🥰 just like you. I love the love the telescopic primer and the telescopic lift mascara and the one from wet and wild big poppa that one surprised me

[@slashedbeauty]

Big poppa is great!! I prefer this one over telescopic lift because it’s slightly less heavy and I like the wand better. They’re pretty similar in effect in my opinion!!

[@user-xh9jm4di6x]

I'd still watch you even if you never bought new makeup.. id like 2see old palettes new looks ..

[@theeellebee]

I enjoy a mix of both but I honestly prefer a full face nothing new or full-on makeup tutorials. I have honestly quit following several channels because all they do is new new new or Amazon hauls. I'm not trying to be rude, but I'm really not interested in what bra you wear. Love you Miranda PS. Thank you for being super sweet & always replying to me on your DMs on instagram. I love chatting with you "Are you ready for it"??❤❤❤

[@slashedbeauty]

I totally get that! Were you interested in what pillow I use 🤣🤣🤣 (jk) but it’s good to know because yeah I think looks and tutorials have really fallen to the wayside in the beauty community!!

[@theeellebee]

@@slashedbeauty yes, actually I'm interested in that pillow

[@monicapatton1405]

I think it’s good to blend your content.

[@CelinaPlaysTooMuch]

I appreciate new product videos to keep up with what’s good but not when it becomes the main focus of beauty content. I noticed we’re past the 2016 maximalist makeup looks but not the maximalist makeup collecting. I’m guilty of hoarding new products last year and not really using them more than once or twice. I stopped watching those types of videos recently and stuck to using the same products I started to love for the last 2 months. But I felt kind of alone about it as even more new product/test new makeup videos keep getting recommended to me anyway. On the other hand to avoid overdoing minimalism is a message that stuck with me that went “Minimalism should be about keeping only what you love to use” Basically, yes I’d love more videos like this lol. That’s the early 2010s beauty guru era I miss. They would make a couple videos of different looks using the same products albeit there was the occasional lip swatch video of a whole line you’d get sent in PR 😂 but they were chill

[@addiemarie809]

I would rather them use the same products frequently. I’m broke and need to know what is worth being in your frequent rotation

[@slashedbeauty]

yessss totally agree!

[@CG-mv8eg]

I enjoy new product reviews but lately it seems like there is too much of a focus on that. Mixing up a little themes is good.

[@ambergerhelper7852]

I miss GRWMs. Because of Covid and me being an introvert, I have no friends or social interaction. I feel like I have friends when y’all get chatty. 🥹

[@slashedbeauty]

Aww I love that 🫶🏼 I feel like it’s an opportunity to show more of my personality as well!
