You are such a darling caring for your Nan.

[@cj92akl]

I love "Take 5", or, as we call it in New Zealand, "Lucky Break". "Woman's Day" has been my mother's jam for as long as I can remember.

[@lydiajimenez8540]

"I'll do the soup, you guys charge" 😂

[@aliyahhussain8368]

Beautiful. Inspirational. Gorgeous. Intelligent. Influential. ❤️🥰

[@homemakingwithmarissa]

The intro is #goals. I love the way you film! So classic and calming!

[@crixdctorres3626]

Hi Rachel, Im always watching your youtube videos and download them as well to watch whenever I feel down and less motivated. You've been my inspiration in life ❤️ More blessings to come 🤗🤗🤗 Regards from Philippines 😘😘😘

[@melon_ayo]

I got flowers for my birthday... it really did make me feel better in isolation!

[@charisamartin2152]

I leave my tea bags in too! Strong tea all the way! 💪🏽🍵

[@chelseaday2518]

I adore your hair!!!!!

[@ji7635]

I love the color of the nailpolish

[@rachelleea]

Thank you :)

[@srijani11]

You look so beautiful ..really shinning from within... Get better soon.. would like to know more about your person .... It feels so nice to see you so happy .. stay blessed ..

[@makeupunlimited]

Maybe once you move into your own place, your allergy will resolve. Your immune system may be overworked and stressed so it's overreacting because the cats are a constant trigger.

[@chynaejanique1401]

I absolutely love how much you care for your Nan. I’d love to see more videos like this, where you help meal prep for her. 🥰

[@rachelleea]

Oh thank you so much, I'm so lucky to see her during this time.

[@lydiajimenez8540]

I swear today I was just thinking of how much a needed a new video from you! THANKS A LOT! So inspiring as always💛

[@alicias8649]

I love your hair in this video!

[@laurendavey7274]

As another sudden adult allergy sufferer, if you have ducted heating or cooling in this new house I would definitely suggest you get it professionally cleaned out lol I was going nuts for months when I moved into an older rental when someone suggested I get the vents and ducts cleaned out and hazzaaa! Allergies miraculously gone 💁‍♀️ the hives drove me insane 🤦‍♀️ I had tried every med, changed washing powder, body wash, shampoo.. etc. but it turns out it was the house dust. Even if the system isn’t turned on, dusty allergen builds up inside them where you can’t get in to clean it yourself and they shift around the house, randomly coming out vents and settling on furniture etc you are touching, but as they are such small particles you don’t realise.

[@coreandarlionstarot]

These are the videos that get me motivated and relaxed all at once. To see such kindness, like you’re doing for your nan by giving her something so quick and easy to cook is lovely 💕 We can all learn from that and I think I’m going to do something very similar today for my nan, thank you for the inspiration! ☺️

[@rachelleea]

Thank you so much. I hope you're having a lovely weekend x

[@Sophia-sl2gs]

I love this video! It’s so important to show the quieter, self care days too😍 and I loooove that nail colour 🙌🏻

[@shivanigogar5914]

♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@natalilushitnoname8991]

I like this version of you so much. More real.. in a good way of course

[@wildfire9635]

Yay for B99! Great choice

[@margieanne9328]

Hi,I hope you feel better soon.I will keep you in my prayers.Have a good day and God Bless You all.

[@RaisingMe]

When the start to wilt splice the steam in half about an inch and put boiling water in the vase. It'll revive them and perk them right up

[@paulacarrillo7376]

Love all your content...so relaxing!!

[@sreejamohan4508]

Wow I love this video much needed ❤️

[@charisamartin2152]

I had a "record Scratch-wait-what?" moment when you said it was autumn. Lol I live in the US and was like "we are in spring heading into summer" but then remember that you're in the Southern hemisphere where it is autumn! 😂😂😂

[@plainwhiterhi]

Also your comment about toronto having real seasons 😂 so true Australia’s weather is not so defined

[@jessicamolley]

💗💗💗 my fiancé is australian and actually just got back to Brisbane from america this morning (2 week quarantine for him). The uncertainty of knowing when we will see each other really sucks, but we definitely aren’t the only ones having to deal with it right now. 💗 also love how you made pumpkin soup, before he left, he made me pumpkin soup! So delicious.

[@JameelahYasmin]

This video was so needed for me. Very relaxing, it's been raining in London too so felt the cozy vibes even more. In your last video, you said how your content and your life were on opposite ends but I feel like this video tied that up and gave an insight into where you are now which was so calming 🎆🌙

[@almahaal-humaidi4273]

Your videos motivate me a lot during self isolation, and i keep up with every video you post and watch the old ones the same times🥰 i love your taste in everything and your aesthetic. I hope you get better and well soon. P.S Brooklyn nine nine is one of those shows that keep you going and feeling good.

[@JessicaBiilor]

Love this! I had an allergic reaction last year and got steroids, it cleared everything up! I still take antihistamines every day though, but it really works. Hope yours does too! Also, Brooklyn 99 is one of the best comedic shows ever, love it so much!

[@katelynball3718]

Yay just what I needed!☺️💗love these types of videos

[@liraz1605]

Love your videos❤ you have a very calming energy, good vibes, thank you💋💋

[@chelsearolph2736]

Just a heads up, it is snowing in Toronto. Haha. I hope you enjoy the warmth in Australia!

[@Linda-wn9ul]

Try an oatmeal bath or oatmeal politesse. For the bath one to two cups of oatmeal in a bath and just relax and make sure to get the oatmeal moist oatmeal on the worst areas for about 15 to 20 minutes. For the politesse, make some oatmeal and put in cheesecloth: squeeze out excess water and apply to affected area for about 15 minutes. You can some baking soda and tea tree oil to either of these for a little extra kick. This is what I used for poison sumac, ivy and oak; also for any allergic rashes. It was recommend by grandma and it does help. You can use the politesse three to four times a day.

[@hachigo12054]

Hi Rachel. Thanks for the video!

[@natachaguyot]

Love this video! So calming and relaxing! Coloring can be so much fun! I hope the treatment helps with your allergic reactions and hives!

[@rachelleea]

Thank you 🌼

[@natachaguyot]

Love this so much! I have so many projects and I've been trying to stay organized (which for a perfectionist in recovery means feeling you're behind all the time). Since I got my iPhone I've been using the free version of the "Habit" app and I love it! I currently track 5 different habits, including daily tarot card, workout, and skin care (as I fell off the bandwagon on that last one so badly a few months ago). It's been helping so much! I love that you mentioned that physical clutter means mental clutter! That's how I am too. I hope the new diary helps!

[@rachelleea]

That's so great that you're finding a habit app helpful!

[@lallalove235]

Got up and made my coffee and sat down to watch your channel. Loved it. I really love your nails. I'm definitely going to purchase the kit. Looking forward to the next post. 😊

[@rachelleea]

Aw, thank you for taking the time to sit and watch me! 🥰

[@zahraonokevbagbe2725]

Loving the purple nail colour! I’ve always enjoyed doing my nails but definitely during this quarantine there’s something extra nice about. I was excited on your behalf for all the new colours to arrive! Hope your allergic reaction calms down soon

[@rachelleea]

Thank you ☺️

[@autumn8177]

Those are definitely Autumn colors! I'm so sorry about your itching i hope it gets better soon!

[@selfcarecorner5364]

A little reminder: don’t underestimate yourself, you are amazing in your own way!

[@keepupwithliv]

You are such a sweet human!

[@margieanne9328]

I agree.

[@JMWard1111]

Playing Game Cube is a great way to relax! I usually play animal crossing on my Ipad or doing yoga/meditations for my downtime during the day when I am not screenwriting for clients or working on film projects. I hope you feel better soon!! :) Sorry you are going through that and hope you have a good weekend!

[@adlinasyafiqah8639]

Hello! How do you get to play animal crossing on your ipad? From Rachel’s video, it seems like she’s using emulator but from what I searched it’s for jailbroken devices! Any recommendations on how I can play on my MacBook or something? Heheh

[@RaisingMe]

I just absolutely love your longer videos! When can we meet your new beau? 😁. Healthy wishes for you and all of yours xoxo

[@belzasuprflychick]

Awe iv been watching Brooklyn nine nine as well 😊😊

[@jordanswartz7012]

I love this video sooo much!!! Thankyou so much for inspiring me to do this video as well!!!

[@lotown92]

Relaxing video, love the new nail colour!

[@nmehlu005]

Just started watching Brooklyn Nine Nine for the first time - such a funny show!!

[@lavenderxbrunette]

My boyfriend started getting hives all over his body a few years ago too! He got an allergy prick test done and there were a few things that came up but still didn’t explain the whole body hives. The doctor told him to try probiotics and they have gone away about 95%! He still sometimes will get a fat lip from say green beans but he hasn’t had that bad of a reaction since! Also, they sell dander reducer wipes for cats on amazon that work really well for allergies if you are interested 😊

[@NoraTKD]

Great video Rachel! I have found my old Nintendo too and started playing again :)

[@rachelleea]

Oh yay! What games do you like?

[@NoraTKD]

@@rachelleea I am playing Tekken and Tomb Raider :)

[@michellephillips9245]

Could you link the gallery art coloring book and pens-- that looks really relaxing.

[@C_Beaty]

I have cat allergies too - they suck! Do yourself a favor and get a good air filter with HEPA. Also for antihistamines take one that is rated for "indoor allergies" like Zyrtec (not Claritin or Allegra) or general allergies like Benadryl.

[@ritacymbalista6643]

Love your videos. Hope the hives are gone by your next video. Be well!

[@nataliemyvalt8820]

Hi, is there any chance you could do a video on how you vlog, edit and prepare your videos? It’d be interesting to see what’s involved in this part of a KZbinrs life and how much work is involved in making each of your videos.

[@MissCharlene1986]

Get yourself some Phenergan (green box) will stop the itching so you can sleep!

[@MartaZeng]

Really 💗💗 your colouring, Rachael...it is beautiful 👍🏼😍

[@rachelleea]

Thank you so much!

[@dgoz97]

Your hair looks super cute in this video!

[@diannad4278]

Love your shirt, where can I purchase?? ☺

[@samaralee1232]

Good morning! Really appreciated your last video, you’ve been through a lot 😔 Thank you for sharing some of your life with us, hope you’re allergies start to calm & resolve itself. I was also just wondering what you use to style your hair as it looks so cute with the wavy curls in this vid!

[@theretiredlife7185]

I love my tea incredibly strong too. Given the amount of stress youve been since the beginning of the year, perhaps your immune system isnt as strong as it could be.

[@plainwhiterhi]

This sounds weird but I feel compelled to say it.. I had a baby last year and seeing everyone colouring etc during social distancing has me wishing this pandemic happened earlier or I had waited so I could enjoy it to it’s full extent 😂 now watch me one day get the opportunity to colour in and pass it up ha

[@Seolhwaneul]

Heck yeah gotta luv Brooklyn 99 at a time like this right? Nine! Nine!

[@rachelleea]

Haha, yessss!

[@luccianalewis9473]

The worst part of being allergic is that your skin get itchy and watery eyes .my eyes can't tolerate too much concealer on them or my skin doesn't let me enough fast food to eat. Sometimes, I rely on antihistamine to eat certain foods specially spicy.

[@isabellawilson9261]

YES BROOKLYN NINE-NINE!!!

[@rachelleea]

Nine nine !

[@19meghank]

I don’t know if this is something you’ve thought of but maybe change your laundry soap.

[@rachelleea]

I’m re-washing everything today. It’s getting worse 😭

[@19meghank]

Hope that helps! I’m sorry 😔 hope you feel better soon!

[@felicitys8673]

Not sure if your reaction is to your cats but it might help to know my hubby was allergic to my cats when we met (I told him the days stay he goes 🤣), two years later he is no longer allergic. However I know my go mentioned they have something now that helps you build a resistance to pet allergies. All the best lady x

[@ElleXY]

The soup looks very good! I'm wondering if maybe your hives/allergic reaction are a response to the cats in your mom's house. Sometimes allergies do change and sometimes appear later in life!

[@joanneholmes1621]

Hopefully you're feeling better soon. I really like your new nail colour. Also what lip are you wearing? It looks like a beautiful nude xxxx

[@lynnarciaga5839]

So pretty ♥️🥰

[@VermontConnection]

Washing with oats was the only way i was able to calm my hives, try it if you haven't yet

[@alexpoe666]

❤️

[@carmens543]

Could you do a video on how to do that hairstyle? 💓

[@redstar1052]

On your vlog you had allergies , Can I recommend an Aussie product “glow” by beauty chef great for sorting out gut health which helps with any health issues. I have been using it years. If you need more info check tvsn they tutorials. Hope this helps

[@LISANE69]

❤️ stay safe 🌈 xxx

[@bysarahalexander4426]

My husband also had random hives pop up during this social-distancing. His were just stress-related...so the allergist said. Now he is just taking lots of Allegra.

[@Novemberbabyyy_]

I need to know desperately what emulator you’re using on your Mac 😂 I loved the N64. Did you link the controller in the description box?

[@rachelleea]

I got open emu and just search n64 controller with USB on eBay or amazon

[@pinkhappens]

Why do you go it? I don’t understand

[@melon_ayo]

something I've noticed -- americans say "unload the dishwasher," not unpack. I think it's interesting!

[@Styledandorganized]

Omg where did you download the n64 simulator from?? 😍

[@rachelleea]

Open emu :)

[@Styledandorganized]

Rachelleea ahh thank youu!! 💜

[@charleyfarley7840]

I'm so triggered by the flying unicorn thingies. Unicorns don't have wings and the mythical winged horse (pegasus) didn't have a horn. So what are they?!?!😊❤️️

[@fruzsy93]

Pegacorns! 😛

[@mkirk1313]

You are under lots of stress, that is one big reason for the allergies to come stronger. It would be good if you rest more and than do more of what you really love and enjoy and try boosting ur immune system with vitamins and some good supplements. And antihistamines usually weaken ur immune system. I would hate if I'm allergic to cats, cuz I too have many. But I have skin allergies on other things that come very strong in stress periods, and it's really hard to find a good doctor that wouldn't simply give you antihistamines and corticosteroid creams that r disastrous for the skin rather than some natural things that would just take the toxins out of your body that actually are the reason for the inflammation. But meanwhile you should stay away from the things that you know cause u problem, at least as much as possible. Still good luck. And thank you very much for your always motivational videos.😘

[@RaisingMe]

I might have to stop watching your videos . My husband said your making me a Amazon addict 😂. Just kidding. I won't stop watching but I am ordering all those color options for my nails.

[@beautysis1554]

How do you keep your blonde hair toned and healthy ? (Especially during this quarantine)

[@rachelleea]

I use the fudge purple shampoo and just make sure not to put too much heat in it :)

[@victoriamather2267]

I swore off real flowers since I have a cat. Be careful, they are very dangerous to cats. Also Coolcoolcoolcool.

[@LoquepiensaMich]

Those gel Polish (I'm not sure the actual name in English. Here they're called "semi-permanente") should last about 15 to 21 days ! You are going to damage your nails if you do it every week. Be careful !

[@rachelleea]

Yah I know but I’m gentle and it’s better than the sns And acrylic I was doing every second week for 4 years :)

[@TH-pf7xe]

I hope you never have to take steroids again or for long periods of time. Its bad in the long term. Or at least that’s what I keep hearing from my friends.
