These are the BEST videos!! Hands down! I also love coffee all the time! I’ve started drinking hot water in the afternoons instead. Not the same of course, but still warm and hydrating!

[@PitucaThings]

Love this literally added all the dupes to my cart. Also I’d love to see a like long wearing event like makeup products video. I went to a wedding and realized all my makeup was mostly for whatever days lol and didnt have any long lasting and I trust your opinion.

[@jasper3042]

Expensive sunscreen is a total non-starter for me. I need to be able to smear that stuff on, not doling it out by the drop because it costs a fortune.

[@Sophia-un1ue]

yep. this is why i stick to drugstore or korean/japanese/european sunscreens. suncare with good and inclusive formulas should not be a luxury

[@whostolethepenguins9549]

I agree! good sun protection is such a luxury it's ridiculous. the prices are just not accessible to so many people

[@MsJuliedlp]

Exactly!! When putting on sunscreen, you want to go off with that stuff and not be worrying about having to spend a fortune on the next bottle.

[@shannonhchase]

And more good mineral sunscreens for the face.

[@Mama_Bear2017]

@@Sophia-un1ue where do you get them? I need a good glowy inexpensive one

[@MDNELLEY]

I just want to thank you for your consistent content & uploads. I have been INCREDIBLY stressed out lately. I subscribe mostly to political and informational KZbin channels, so a lot of the time that can add to my stress. When I just want to wind down and have something chill on, you seem to have always uploaded a video that exact day! Your content is still valuable to me, but it’s not the “serious” stuff that adds to my emotional plate. I just thought you should know that what you do isn’t JUST about makeup. To some of us, it’s a very needed emotional vacation.

[@melissakessler77]

Maybelline Lifter Gloss is the best dupe ever for the Fenty Gloss Bombs. I know that’s not news to anyone, but they are soooo good and the same as the high end. I also love the No7 pressed powder and the Maybelline Fit Me loose powder.

[@NatashaDawn82]

You really can't beat the Maybelline Fit Me powders! I haven't tried the loose but the pressed are so nice! Especially the translucent. It's just as nice as my Too Faced and other high end brands I've tried!

[@jazwhoaskedforthis]

What's so special about the lifter or fenty glosses? I'm curious about the hype

[@FanofHarper]

I felt so proud of myself when I found the Ecotools blending and bronzing brush before Jessica mentioned it in a dupes video. That's the only dupe I've ever found that I didn't hear from her... Side note, I appreciate the fact that she acknowledges the benefits of the higher end brand instead of saying the drugstore version is a perfect dupe. I'm looking forward to the next round followed by a classic DECLUTTER! #selfbless

[@triciag7040]

I don't care if I won the lottery, I'd still want a good deal! Love the dupes, which typically ends up with an Ulta/Target run! I do NOT was my face in the am...like you, I have a whole thing @ night. In the am, I use a micellar water & then start the day!

[@brittanywillhoit]

Two of my favorite things: Jessie and drugstore dupes!

[@kerriekrafts]

Same!!!

[@raeana_mari]

As much as I “know” of high end products, these videos are my favorite because I never actually buy high end makeup. It’s just not worth it to me. ~Very~ occasionally I’ll buy something, but even if I really enjoy it, I don’t justify consistently repurchasing it 😂 there’s no need when drugstore is just as good!

[@wenharas1]

Pacifica also makes a hydrating SPF 50 lotion and vitamin C. It’s about $15 at Target or Ulta. If you can’t find the Milani, it’s another good one to try.

[@ayemeebee]

I may need to check that out. I don’t like to go below spf 50 ever if I’m using it as my main sun protection on my face

[@subboxjunkie8298]

Is it a mineral sunscreen ?

Hi Jessica! If you get time can you film the makeup placement tips you learned in theatre school? It sounds so interesting!

[@_meganphillips]

i can normally see a difference between the dupes and high-end sides but i totally can’t tell this time!! that’s how i know these are going to be some gooooood dupes 🙌

[@jemsopp7125]

My 4 year old walked into the room just a minute ago while I was watching you on our big TV, she stopped and watched for a moment with her mouth open and then said in complete awe, “Woah, she’s a real life Princess!”. I thought, of all people, you would actually appreciate that for the compliment it was meant to be. Lol! Move over Cinderella! 🤩👸🏻

[@kiraboo_]

I thought the same and immediately went to the comments to see if others agreed! I thought she looked more like Esmerelda when she had her hair up in the beginning :)

[@krista436]

I’d seen a lot of mixed reviews on the elf bronzer, I was going to pass. Then I saw your video! I ordered 2 colors, the more contour one and lightest. Like you, I stippled them on and I’ve loved them! I don’t think they go on well other ways, but the stipple is perfection 😊

[@k.hebert]

I was wrong! 😂 I always love when I’m wrong about which side is high end with these types of videos… because it means the affordable side looks better (in my opinion) and that makes my wallet happy! 😅 You’re such a gem, Jess! 💖

[@iamlisa63]

I’ve never heard anyone mention Hard Candys brow pencil , it has the exact same brush as the Fenty brow pencil and is my favorite, the pencil end has the teardrop shape I prefer also because I have very sparse brows ! It’s a pink brow pencil with the Marilyn Monroe collection so it’s pretty too !

I love the L'Oreal lip stains! In fact I was wearing the shade Be Cheerful, which is a sparkly kind of deepish pink/magenta and is beautiful! I also own the one you have and Be Captivating which is a gorgeous pinky nude shade for we pale skinned girls/boys! I do know it'd be way too pale for you, Jess. Thanks for the dupes, love ya girl!

[@BeautyReviewsShortandSimple]

L'Oreal owns Lancome, so it's only a matter of time when product from Lancome will make it's way do the drugstore in a L'Oreal version.

Love the recommendations! Really couldn't see a difference between the sides at all! Just to throw it out there, the e.l.f. and the Saie bronzers... Looking at the size you get for the money, I think gram for gram the price is very similar. However, I will say for people that like me don't wear makeup every day, with them being cream products maybe the e.l.f. is better value as you wouldn't need to worry about product going bad and being wasted. Just thought it might be an added point to think about.
