BACK OF THE DRAWER Makeup… Let’s Use the Under-Used Stuff

[@jennifermorin3229]

Prayers for your Dad and family. It is so hard when our folks get older, something everyone at some point goes through unfortunately.

[@emilynoel83]

chemo was hard on him & the recovery from that alone isn't a quick process, we've learned!

[@terrilabeth]

How about a “No Buy July” and just use all of the things we haven’t seen in a long time on your channel? You are about to start “The Season of Holiday Makeup” and you will be bombarded! A bit of rest from purchasing during the summer might be a welcome break and a boost to get you going when the holiday makeup hits? My brain can take off in what I call the spinnies and it always includes me worrying about things that will most likely never happen. Hang in there and sending good vibes your way! 💕

[@vickiweber4718]

I need a no-buy July for myself. I did just get a Sephora order because I'm running low on my vitamin c serum. I don't see myself needing anything else for a good while.

[@terrilabeth]

@@vickiweber4718 Me too! I just reorganized my makeup and discovered so many things that I totally forgot about? 😱 I am on a no buy for July and August. It is too hot right now for me to even be interested in anything new. 👍🏻

[@amyhadley6021]

Sometimes a cry is what a girl needs. Stress is real! Praying your dad feels better soon.❤

[@jenniferzurawski6761]

Prayers for your Dad 🙏

[@emilynoel83]

thank you so much

[@rickiebee6011]

In the spirit of shopping your stash, could we see your holiday palettes again? Christmas in July sounds fun! ❤🌞🌡❄⛄

[@stephaniebailey8740]

Prayers for your dad! Always love seeing the kiddos coming in the room

[@shannon85226]

Hey Em. I would love to see a video about your 60 hard- what you’re eating, what exercises your doing, what resources you used, and how you’re doing it, lessons you learned, etc.Beauty is not just about makeup. I mean caring for our skin from the inside out is perfect for having healthy skin to begin with before you use make up. Perhaps in a day in the life vlog. Just a thought. Would also like to hear the books you are reading or suggestions for the reading portion of it.

[@karekausnicolli4890]

Some days you just need a good cry to release all of the stress tension, some that you didn't even realize was building up inside. I had one of those days last week. Prayers for your dad's health, for Tyler's new venture, and for you and your whole family, Em. I know when there's clutter, it makes me feel claustrophobic and anxious. I love your look, Emily. 🥰

[@ruth4489]

Glad you are doing video on makeup.we have forgotten about. I love those, especially since the economy is getting worse and I'm using a little more drugstore makeup but only after I have hit pan. I think EVERYONE is stressed right now. My mom has end stage cancer and as her caretaker it is a lot, I even stopped wearing makeup for a few weeks. My husband noticed and told me, "just wear cheap makeup, you have a lot, might as well use it, it makes you feel better". I laughed and thought it was funny because he has never been one to talk about my makeup but I think after 18 yrs of marriage, men know what it is that makes you feel better. After slapping on makeup and putting hair up in a ponytail, you do feel like you can conquer the world. Especially with a great lip gloss, I use Josie Maran and the glosses from Lancome, the juicy tube. Oh and I will pray for your dad, God be with him.

[@emilynoel83]

I'll pray for you also - that must be so difficult. It's amazing what a little makeup time can do for a person!

[@lynnewright31]

Sorry about your mom illness.

[@andreasantoro6292]

I’m so very sorry for what you’re going through. I went through the exact same thing with my mom, and there are just no words for it. I’m glad you’re finding some joy in makeup again; I stopped wearing it too for a bit after my mom passed, but when I eventually got back into it, it truly was (and is) like a form of therapy (especially since my mom was a makeup artist, and I got my love of it from her!) ❤ That was around the time I discovered Milani Teddy Bare lipstick-still one of my favorites. A great lip color really can turn your day around. ☺️ Sending you big hugs. 🙏🏼

[@Bethnesjourney]

Healing Prayers for your Dad! And prayers for Tyler’s new journey with his practice 💜💜💜💜💜

[@shaveazapatajuan3994]

I'm obsessed with your eyeshadow look 😍 I hope your dad feels better soon. Don't forget you are amazing! Love you!

[@sisiwx6154]

I don't want to bypass the news about your dad. I'm sending virtual hugs to you. It's been a minute since we had a bub update. Congratulations to him on the news of his own law firm! That's a huge accomplishment! ❤

[@rachelkramer156]

Also! One of your old Beauty Broadcast vids popped up (like 13 years ago) and it was Best Berry Lipsticks and I showed my husband. He lit up and said “Omg that’s Em! It’s amazing how much she hasn’t aged!”

[@deann3621]

Oh, I ❤ grow with Jo videos!! Good for you for keeping your commitment. So easy to start to feel that you deserve to take a break, when like you said you feel so much better afterwards AND you did something great for yourself. You are very inspirational!!

[@MyCleverHandle]

A good cry is sometimes the best thing for us. You said it let you sleep really well. And we viewers get to see how you work around the aftereffects with your fabulous makeup skills! Plus, you seem to have super energy! So it's a win-win! Prayers for you all - but especially for you. Hope you stay the course and stay in touch with your inner self. Thanks for the video!

[@crystalmaechandler]

100% felt similar this week- the overwhelming feelings of the unknowns just rose up inside of me, and I felt like I needed a good cry.

[@kweenbee3]

Sending you all the positive vibes ❤ you’re so real which makes it so relaxing to watch you. Thank you Em!

[@julieduran5769]

I think it would be fun to do a color series. Red eyeshadow look and what makeup could support that, orange, rose gold, green, blue, purple, silver, gold. Today is our pink day, etc. Not necessarily monochromatic, but colors that support the main color. You could talk through different aspects of the color. If I'm hoping to wear an orange blush, it would go well with....Orange lipstick? I would map the rest of the face like this. Purple blush? yes that's tricky, but if you just....

[@hollythornell5262]

Yes I love monochromatic looks

[@jbbb7418]

Love to you and your family Emily. Prayers sent up for your dad for health and many more happy years ❤❤❤

[@liliabenavides4052]

Not glad you have things going on (not for a minute) but it makes me realize I'm not the only one. We will get through this. I will have my cry. Thank you for reminding me to take care of myself. Been letting myself go lately. I send you a virtual hug and you are in my prayers. You are such a doll. Thank you for putting on a "good face" for us all. Blessings.

[@sherrihowe5631]

Final look is beautiful! That cheek and highlight looks fabulous ❤

[@juliahester1945]

Complexion is beautiful!! That eye look... gorgeous 🥰😍

[@dannhorne9782]

For our viewing pleasure. Everything you post is a pleasure to view. Praying for your Dad and for you.

[@ChilleeMac]

Prayers and love to you and your family. Caring for our parents can be heartbreaking at times. I'm dealing with the recent loss of my mother and trying to slow down and appreciate all the memories. Your Dad sounds like a fighter. God bless!

[@GhosstRyder]

I understand how you feel. My Beautiful mom is 82 and I always get very upset when she isn’t feeling well. I am sending healing prayers your way for your Dear Dad!❤️❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 I Love these videos so much! They always remind me of all the great products I forgot I had. Thank you.❤️❤️😘😘😘

[@GeminiGlitters]

Crying is completely needed it’s your emotions being released and they’re totally valid . Appreciate you getting on here even when you have things going on 💖.

[@meagenb4968]

Make-up, yes!! Always good to stay in routine. I am sorry your Dad isn't feeling well. It's important to just remember that he is older and will ocassionally not feel well. Having been through and losing both parents to cancer, I know that it is also fear. Please remember to be here now and in the moment. If a cry makes you feel better, cry! Also, please consider reaching out to a support group. And finally give yourself grace. BIG hug. ❤

[@DrMomsFarmacy]

Emily you're just a joy to watch and thankful for the honesty in all spaces. You're not the only one who is getting emotional right now. There's so much going on. Us as women as mothers feel it the most as we try to fill many spots with many titles. Meditating in the quiet really does help. Grounding in nature. Journaling. Reading the Word. Just praying. We just have to find that secret place where we can release and be refreshed. I had a friend tell me if you don't break down at least once a week in this world you might not have a soul. It's heavy. But we have these spaces we can go to to get away. To be creative. To find some joy. Thank you for being a part of my space of sanity. Watching my mama get ready was such a special time growing up so KZbin really helps me to "escape" into something I am passionate and joyful over. It's more than just makeup. I'll be praying for your dad. For Bubs firm. For the girls. Mostly for you and all the hats you wear. May we be restful and peaceful spaces in a world that is going mad. 🙏🏼

[@cathyhanson5885]

Hi Emily, I hope your dad starts feeling better. Sometimes a good cry makes us feel better. 🌷

[@foxxyloxxyxo]

It’s so therapeutic to take some time to do things for yourself in times of stress that will be good for you. It would be very easy to just veg and Netflix and sometimes that’s what we need. On the other hand, going outside in nature, sitting in silence, a walk, a workout, meditation or a dance off.. all have an impact on our anxiety and stress levels.. I absolutely adore Gro with Jo.. I love love her dance party videos..

[@AmyRoots]

The lips are perfection! Love this look. Praying for your family and your Dad❤️

[@LadyB_20]

Always love these shop my stash videos and congrats on Bub’s new career journey!

[@lindsayperez3538]

Some CVS' has that Hydra Powder Loose powder. My heart and prayers go out to you and your Dad. I just lost my dad suddenly on June 18, and it has been the hardest thing I have ever had to go through. Your videos are definitely a bright spot in my long days recently. Thank you. 😼

[@vickiweddermann9181]

Emily, I think you should write down all your lip combinations and post them. You come up with the prettiest looks. You're always a pleasure to watch, and your stories are always fun. Many blessings

[@marypurpura4692]

Love Love Love this look. Yes a good cry is sometimes needed, it’s ok. The eye look is so fun on you, and I loved the lip.✨

[@Sue_WWeb24]

I’m sorry to hear that your dad isn’t feeling well, will add him (you) to my prayer list. Watching our parents age is one of the toughest things to go through, but sadly we all have to do it at some point. I also struggle with the stress of anticipation and what ifs, but I’m trying to give it God, take it day by day, and stop trying to steal the pen since it’s his story to tell. Sending love and light your way. 🙏🏻 (Beautiful look today too 😘)

[@christinac.2477]

Yum! I made a very similar meal prep for my lunches this week. Quinoa cooked with veggie broth, cumin and other seasonings. Added a can of black beans, corn, cilantro, and roasted bell pepper. Added lime zest and lime juice. Looking forward to lunch!

[@susanbrindisi8197]

Prayers for you and your Dad. Stress is hard. Hang in there.

[@jenn1eharr1s10]

Thanks Emily, love to use make up from the back of the drawer. There’s always a surprise or two ❤. If possible, a Lisa Eldridge products video would be amazing. I’ve a few of her products and they’re gorgeous. Sending best wishes to you and your family 🥰🥰🥰

[@Makeupstaples]

Staying in the routine no matter what helps me , a good cry too ❤ love you

[@wendyoldaker5177]

Yes to rediscovering Em Cosmetics and also would love to see a video of RMS beauty!

[@juliewells4282]

Good morning Emily! Sorry you’re feeling stressed-sending you a big, virtual hug! ❤😊 I just said a prayer for your dad.

[@emilynoel83]

thank you so much, Julie

[@PWatts-ff2fd]

I love those small Matte Putty Poreless Primer jars! They help my makeup go on do much more smoothly, especially on areas where my pores tend to "poke out" from beneath my foundation. They are also sized perfectly for travel. ❤❤❤

[@shiny_olenka]

Love the concept of the video, please keep doing them!! We need to use the makeup we already have 😅

[@champagenroses]

Nice to hear more love for the Vanicream products 💕 I use the Moisturizing Lotion and SPF 30 - very gentle on sensitive skin all their products are fragrance free 🥰 Take care everyone 🌹

[@carrielassiter8455]

Love that pencil all over the lip, then the lipstick on top. Gorgeous! No gloss for me. 😊

[@boise.beauty7797]

Such a beautiful look! I’m pretty sure those too faced lipsticks are the yummiest smelling lipsticks I’ve ever tried! 😍🙌🏼

[@Megatronsters]

Hey Emily. I wanted to take a moment to tell you how much I appreciate you. I fall asleep to your voice every night. I’m 32 and lost my mom a year ago, my dad is February and my sister in April. Your energy is so comforting to me, and your videos have helped me through the most difficult period of my life. You have such a kind soul and I wanted to thank you for being you. Sending your dad prayers and healing energy. Have a wonderful day 💚

[@lesliemcculloch1590]

I’m so sorry for your losses. I can’t imagine how difficult it must be. Sending prayers and a virtual hug 🤗

[@jayneyp8683]

Sorry you had a moment. We all have them but appreciate you sharing. Glad you find makeup tutorials therapeutic because "we" find them therapeutic. Love you, love your kids. Thanks for being you. We're all here to support you :)

[@LydiaTarine12]

Just as a thought, I’d love to see you pull out older but loved eyeshadow palettes and do a look with them. Early on your in channel, you came up with some lovely looks (I repeatedly return to one in particular) and since palette launches seem to be slowing at the moment, now would be a great time to give established palettes some love, even if it just as a part of other vids you’re doing. 😊

[@katzn2]

The sunrise in your window was spectacular as was your video Good thoughts for your Dad and Bub

[@sarahrisk83]

Currently panning my way through my older lip collection, right now I'm using the Too Faced heart core lipstick in Sweet tea, an Emily recommendation from back in the day. ❤

[@m.c.8680]

Love the lighter blush color on you.. Wow Such A pretty look❤

[@julsz528]

As someone loosing my mother my last parent I dunno how I will deal with it .. I am a PSW and take care of others however,when it comes to our own it’s totally different. I have been crying so much .. 3 days before my birthday in may my mother broke her femur .. we had her at the hospital 2 days prior and they sent her home with arthritis in her leg.. now we found out she has stage 4 bone cancer😢then she has cancer in her eye that has a detached retina .. she has now done radiation on her leg and this week we start with her eye😢.. parents are precious it’s so hard to loose them 😢😢 make memories all with your family , put anything in the past of issues and know nothing matters but family ❤❤ prayers for everyone and your dad ❤

[@Pperkins83]

Love grow with Joe. Was doing it faithfully during the school year. Now I’m out of routine! Loved this shop your stash! Interesting to see products we tend to forget about because they’re not the newest thing anymore. ❤

[@TheAnxietyAdvocate]

What you’re feeling is so common - amazing job getting outside and listening to nature, that’s inherently calming to the brain! And movement is the other best recommendation as a habit!!

[@kimberlyl3177]

I have been using the Vani Cream. Thank you for the recommendation. I use it every night! ❤❤❤❤

[@UnpurrfectRobyn]

Cumulative stress stemming from anxiety is something that I deal with on a regular basis. If I let it get too out of control without taking the time to decompress, I will burn out, feel extra tired, get headaches, nausea, etc. You mentioned that there's no crisis situation on-hand, but all the little things add up! Take care of yourself, Em!

[@michellecook6738]

Prayers for your dad.. hope he gets better soon. 🩵🩵

[@jennifertrump4863]

I love how consistent you have always been with your videos and you take your job seriously! Respect ✊ love the nude lip 🫦

[@andreasantoro6292]

Sending you so much love and prayers to your dad and family. 🙏🏼❤️ I lost both of my parents young; I’m 36 and have already been through it twice, and it’s something I wish no one ever had to experience, ever. But I’ve also found throughout my mom’s illness that prayer, positive thoughts, and lots of love really DO go a long way, and can bring about miracles. I bet your dad’s angels have his back in this. 💕😘🙏🏼

[@pippaloves]

I’ve watched you for so many years. I love and trust your realness. It sounds so strange but I’m so comforted by the fact that you cry too. I’m not happy you’re sad at all! And don’t want that for you. But at the same time it’s so comforting and I feel so much for you and hope your pain passes. It always does ❤ thank you for being a friend you don’t even know to me.i know i sound crazy but it’s comforting right now.

[@Lilacs644]

Sorry your dad isn’t well😢hope he gets better soon ❤I got the Elf putty primer years ago when it came out and it WAS soooo dry and it went in the trash! But I bought it again a few months ago and I love it! It’s creamy unlike the first batch.

[@donnafabulous6126]

Praying for your dad and for you. Your look is gorgeous!! What’s cool about this video is seeing the daylight come up in the window. Keep shining friend!!!

[@mistytells]

Emily has the life alot of us wish we had. I’ve never seen a more authentically nice person on social media, ever. You can tell how her kids interact with her that this is who she is. No drama, nothing like that. She really is one of the number 1-5 best beauty influencers. I’ve been her for so long, she didn’t even have children and wasn’t even thinking about it yet, probably. I feel like I know her.

[@barbpage8235]

You influenced me to use vanicream for my eye cream & it’s made a huge difference and so cost effective!

[@Darbsi]

Prayers for your dad and your whole family as your husband ventures out on his own. Love shop our own stash as I am sure we all have a lot to use up. I will for as long as I live. 😂 I am not a big brow pomade and tinted brow gel person. I tried and get that stuff all over my face. 😂 will stick with the pencils and clear brow gel. Thanks for sharing and btw love bitty’s cameo appearances. Take good care. ❤

[@tedoymisojos]

The EM palette looked scary at first, but the look is interesting in a painterly way. It really does give sunset vibes.

[@lilywhite3762]

Love the look today!! Mom, you are overstimulated, and it's ok to have a good cry when you need it! That seems to be where I live these days. WNW eye primer used to be my favorite. It rivaled NARS, but the last tube I bought was nothing like the older formula. It made a hot mess.

[@lynnewright31]

Hey Emily, what a beautiful sunset eye look and I didn't realize how much I missed colorful eye shadow. I hope your dad turns another corner and feels better soon. God bless you and yours

[@marybonome9279]

Hope the dream stays a dream! No migraine!❤❤❤ Sending your dad strength, energy as he continues his journey toward good health! Stay strong Emily- lots of love and support! Ty for the video!!🎉🎉🎉🎉Have a great weekend!🎉🎉🎉

[@rachelkramer156]

Yes, Em, do a video on Em! 🤣

[@EmilyRose970]

That blush looks really beautiful on you! And the mac mineral skin finish gives such a natural sheen to the skin.

[@LYNNSTER1971]

I remember when I started really getting into my walking workout some years ago that I would have little emotional breakdowns now and then. I think it had to do with leveling up my intensity. It was almost like crashing from my endorphin high.

[@lindajdob6157]

Prayers for your Dad ❤

[@MichelleAdler-wf4lg]

Your makeup came out really pretty

[@robinnieto2703]

Prayers for your dad. After going through 3 months of testing after a random test showed my CEA level was elevated (I was found to be very healthy), having no history of any kind and stressing over what I was eating and putting on my skin, it was suggested that I use the YUKA app as well as the EWG app to check ingredients. It was very disappointing to see the chemicals that are in makeup products that are hazardous for us and are cancer causing, endocrine disrupters, allergy causing and cause so many other issues. Sadly went through my makeup and set aside all that was rated bad. I’m doing more research, trying to figure out if I need to throw it all away. I’ve got a good size collection….. I enjoy sitting down in the morning and following along with you, Emily, as we do our makeup together. After going through this, my makeup is very my makeup routine is pretty much gone and I’m missing it. Can you do a clean makeup tutorial?

[@JenniferPost]

Love grow with jo! Sorry to hear about your Dad. Prayers going up!

[@erikabarnett9509]

I’m sorry to hear about your dad. I think we are about the same age (child of the 90s) and watching parents age is hard! Also congrats on your hubby new law firm. I am sure it will be a success. I love watching your videos! You are just so down to earth and you are like a friend sitting and having a coffee chat with in the morning! Best wishes.

[@rachelkramer156]

Thanks for the upload, Em! ❤️

[@Alice-fr1ef]

I love shop my stash videos Emily. You always find such great products that have been forgotten. Look at the great face you created with those products. It's so beautiful and it makes me want to do the same thing Emily. I have enjoyed this video and the fun. You and your family are in our prayers and we love you too. Thanks for a wonderful evening visit.🥰❤💖💗💙❤🌹🥀🌼💐

[@Amyntj]

That lip is super pretty.

[@AislinSidhe]

Thank you so much for all the hard work you do, Emily. I recall that a few years ago, you did a Christmas in July video where for five days you used a palette that was marketed as a holiday release from the previous year, and went through mini tutorials on how you did each look. I believe your friend David, the makeup artist extreme from Estee Lauder, recommended it as an idea. It would be so wonderful for you to do this again! I still remember and laugh at the "dirty, dusty peaches" advice! Prayers and good vibes sent for your dad, too, Emily!

[@leahwhite115]

I'm praying for your Daddy and your Mom. So thrilled for Tyler and your family. Very excited for y'all! Praying much success for him! Thank you for sharing with us!

[@ashleymegonnell7589]

Sending love to you and your family 💜

[@VirgElena]

Hi Emily…I can relate with feeling like the stresses are catching up and needing a good cry to work through it, this has been me lately too. Seeing your video is literally emotional support for me lol. Sending you hugs. Hope your Dad starts to feel better soon. Thanks for this video..xx 💕

[@emilynoel83]

glad to provide support to someone!! Thanks for always watching & supporting me as well. Hugs to you!

The hydro powder from loreal is sold at shoprite, rite aid and Acme. Here in Jersey but funny thing I've never seen it at a Walmart near me. My mom uses that powder so I've looked lots of places for it.

Yes crying is a natural medication to stress but please know youve got a wonderful family and we all have issues that make us cry too❤

[@sharonm.t.2492]

I love my Rimmel bronzer, too! I have the lightest one (Sun Light) but want one shade darker as summer moves on. I think you mentioned it, Sun Bronze.

[@mariave1775]

Thank you for doing all you do. Im a 3x cancer survivor and it takes a toll especially emotionally. Prayers always got me through and your Dad will be in mine. Unfortunately we are still going through it in our family but I believe it's in God's hands. Sending positive vibes to you❤🌈💜👍😉

[@janreding9384]

Yes definitely prayers for Dad he's going to be okay. What a great video how beautiful you look even though you thought you had puffy eyes I thought you looked absolutely beautiful God bless you and your family Emily

[@rachelkramer156]

Thank you for your vulnerability and suggestions about how you regulated your emotions after a breakdown- so helpful!

[@holliekk82]

Em I’m so sorry your Dad isn’t doing well I pray he gets better and thinking of you. And stress is stress! It does get overwhelming and a good cry is sometimes exactly what we need. Side note I just picked up the rimmel foundation after not using it since like 2012ish and that scent brought me back! I forgot how good it was thank you for reintroducing it to me! Anyways we love you and hope everything gets better 💛

[@rachelkramer156]

Those shades look so smooth and effortless!! Beautiful eye look!

[@rachelkramer156]

These are, hands down, my favorite style/content of videos. (That and date night/full glam videos.)
