Empties, New Products & some decluttering | ttsandra

[@stormy_pidgeon]

That Lisa Eldridge gloss looks stunning on you! 🤩

[@gemmaross6794]

Honestly the only person I enjoy watching these days on KZbin Sandra. You’re always so honest about the products you love (or don’t love). That’s what I love be to watch, I’m so tired of seeing people unboxing their next designer bag! Thank you for your fabulous videos ❤️

[@ttsandra]

Thank you so much!!

[@chrissstttiiine]

When you shave with a shower oil, does it gunk up your razor? You know what I mean?

[@ttsandra]

it doesn't! but I do make sure to rinse it out after each couple of swipes (which I do with regular shaving gels/foams too)

[@msmintygreen]

Love your empties video. You include a good variety of products. So helpful! I buy the L’occitane shower oil refills in those bags/pouches. xx

[@ttsandra]

Great idea!! i love that they have the pouch refills. i used them too :)

[@rxsaradawood]

Love love your videos Sandra! They put me in such a state of serenity and joy 💓

[@ttsandra]

I'm so glad! thanks for watching

[@Retexey]

Thanks for doing those lipstick swatches at the end. That was really helpful!

[@ttsandra]

I don’t have the most comprehensive library but sometimes it helps to get more context of a shade haha

[@elisitac]

Of course the Affair Gloss is stunning 😍. That formula is just fantastic.

[@ritaromney584]

Loved the lipgloss swatches at the end of the video. I ordered some of the Bioderma Shower Oil, while in the midst of watching your video! Can't wait to try it! Thanks for the great reviews. 🌺

[@ttsandra]

thanks so much for watching!

[@cousteaugirl6829]

Hard agree! The casual chat and swatching at the end was great!

[@sharonhansen2935]

I get so excited when I finish something. I love watching your empties videos too, very satisfying! I recently got a Terracycle box for toiletry and cosmetic packaging recycling which I highly recommend.

[@ttsandra]

That is awesome! I have been looking into those. apparently some Nordstrom locations partner with them too and you can bring in your beauty empties there

[@elizabethl4241]

Really enjoyed that loved the info on musk scents musk and amber are life scent can never get enough if them thanks for the tips

[@ttsandra]

You are so welcome!

[@pamelanunez-zaremba6781]

That Bioderma shower oil is one that just keeps on giving! One of my favorite shower products is the Korres Guava body cleanser, definitely on the sweeter side but really nice in the summer!

[@rundalina]

Ooh thanks for reminding me of the Korres Guava. It is really nice and I haven’t bought it for ages.

[@ttsandra]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@roxananastor8729]

I also bought Kitten Mischief and I love pairing atm with NYX Lip pencil in Nude Beige, it gives me such 90's supermodel vibes. I also got Dance Card and I didn't expect to love it that much and I was just thinking as I was applying it that you would just love it too. :D

[@ttsandra]

Dance Card is so pretty!!!

[@andreaparker2069]

NIOD MMHC2 is my favorite hydrating serum for under makeup. It really plumps up the skin. After sticking to the Chanel Duo Tenue Ultra non-transfer formula during the pandemic, I couldn't wait to switch to a semi-sheer for the first time in ages. I just bought the newish Chanel Coco Bloom formula in Dream. The formula is a nice transition to sheer for someone who has been wearing demi-mattes for quite awhile. I also use the Bioderma shower oil but this is one area, I like to keep things cheap, so the others in my rotation are the Alaffia Everyday Shea Vanilla Mint body wash and Dove's Irritation Care body wash.

[@ttsandra]

thanks for sharing!! i am a big fan of the Dove body washes too -- also that hydrating serum has been on my list to check out for SO LONG, i hear nothing but great things about it

[@pinkabuki]

That too faced pillow balm comes in more colours too, I have the mango one and it's very nice.

[@ttsandra]

YUM i have to try that next

[@shabinapatel8237]

I’m currently using the Rituals Sakura shower gel and loving it, will have to try the bioderma one next✨ thanks for the great video! X

[@ttsandra]

It's so good! thanks for watching

[@deborahrosen3324]

A few other shower oils that are wonderful are the Kiehls foaming shower oil and Eucerin shower oil! Eucerin can be purchased on Amazon. It’s quite inexpensive but is miraculous for dry, itchy winter skin! I also love that it is unscented, perfect for sensitive skin 😃. Kiehls is fantastic too, just more of a treat product 👍. Xoxo 😘 Deb

[@atutyy]

+1 for the eucerin one! I’ve recently switched from the bioderma shower oil to the eucerin shower oil and I like the eucerin better! + it has a nicer smell 😅

[@ttsandra]

Yay thanks for the suggestions Deb!! Will be checking them out

[@antoinettelindo]

The Bioderma shower oil is AMAZING for cleansing my beauty sponges. It’s great at getting all the product build up deep out of the sponge. And because the bottle is so large for such a low price I don’t feel bad using my shower oil as a sponge cleanser also.

[@ttsandra]

Thanks for the tip!

[@lorrainebertetto2279]

I love shower oil. L’occitan is great, but i always have to place it into a plastic bottle, I’m always afraid I’m gonna drop it in the shower, I’m gonna try the bioderma oil! Can’t wait.

[@chrissyshea4977]

Hi Sandra! What do you typically apply your shower oils and gels with? I haven’t found anything as satisfying as a loofah but feel so scuzzy using them. Curious to know if you’ve found a good option!

[@ttsandra]

i just use my hands!

[@queens6583]

I used the IT cosmetics product for years until I found that my skin did not like it anymore and I hated the illuminating one. I was sooo tempted to get a Lisa Eldridge lipstick or gloss and resisted because I have so many lip products. Your tempting me Sandra!

[@ttsandra]

they will still be around when you decide you need a new lippie, no worries :) use and enjoy what you already have!

[@emilyclaire995]

I didn’t notice a difference with the Tatcha primer either! I also got the small size and glad I did!

[@ttsandra]

it's so disappointing lol

[@anasangalli_derm]

You look so beautiful! Love this type of videos! Could you do a new skincare routine for summer? I have been struggling with so much acne and clogged pores…it’s certainly making me sad. I think it’s from all the mask wearing. I really need some inspirations from you. Hope you’re well! ❤️

[@ttsandra]

i recently got a dermalinfusion diamond glow facial and it was SO refreshing and decongesting - it gave my pores the perfect reset. similar to a hydrafacial but a bit more intense.

[@ilmybarajas6351]

Hi Sandra, I love the oils for showering too, I use the Diptyque Do Son Shower Oil, and I love it. Love the lipstick and gloss look good on you. I am cream blush fanatic so I got Island Glow and it's lovely, you don't need much!! great video, love Ilmy

[@ttsandra]

omg i love the Do Son scent - had no idea they make shower oils too!

[@danicatoscano7739]

Always love your empties videos so much! Out of curiosity, between the NARS and Laurier Mercier tinted moisturizers, which one do you prefer for your skin type?

[@ttsandra]

NARS! although i haven't tried the recently reformulated oil free Laura Mercier one

[@CheekSoup]

Your nails! That length & color combo is just so good. I finished up my mini of the hourglass loose setting powder last week. Literally the first time I’ve finished a loose setting powder so I’m feeling pretty proud of myself. The Laura Mercier loose powder is a point perk at Sephora right now so I picked that up to tide me over while I figure out what to get next. I fell in love with a Wet n Wild concealer this past year, and I ordered a backup of it before it ran out because I thought I’d found my holy grail and it was like 7 bucks which was extremely exciting. But apparently they’ve reformulated or something, because the new tube of “fair neutral” is a completely different shade and undertone that I can’t even use. Sooooo I’ve ordered approximately 4 different concealers from Sephora and Ulta in an effort to find my new standby. Fingers crossed.

[@ttsandra]

Omg how frustrating that they reformulated your go to concealer. I hate when that happens. I hope you have good luck with one of the Sephora ones 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@ND-ss1qp]

I love these videos! Thank you 😊 🇨🇦

[@MakeupBeliever]

May I ask what your favorite Vitamin C Serums have been of the ones you've tried? By the way, your skin looks absolutely beautiful, so luminous and silky. :-)

[@ttsandra]

skinceuticals phloretin CF and amorepacific youth revolution vitamin c concentrator!

[@YuliaRamos]

I hated the regular it cosmetics pressed powder at first it when I used it with a fluffy duo fiber brush it looked amazing!

[@ttsandra]

i have a feeling the regular is a lot nicer than this illuminating one - the shimmer gets stuck in my pores and makes me look... anything but poreless 😆

[@rashasarandah1695]

Fir an HA serum, have you tried the Vichey mineral 89? Also the Purito Unscented Centella Serum is a beautiful hydrating and calming serum with HA and wonderful ingredients. Check that one out! Pairs perfectly with Tretinoin at night.

[@ttsandra]

I have tried mineral 89 and it was good but i liked the vichy wrinkle filler HA better, i found it more plumping!

[@terezapechova5731]

I feel the same way about the it cosmetics Cc cream 🙈 I kind of didnt understand the hype and after you mentioned it here I finally realized the issues I had with it every time I was using it. So thank you, now I can declutter it with peace in my heart 😁

[@ttsandra]

onwards and upwards! haha

[@YourBeauty26]

I talked to my optician about blue light and he said its completely marketing at least when it comes to the eyes. Computer glasses with a glare are much better than blue light glasses.

[@ttsandra]

thank you for sharing!!

[@robinspencer9611]

I Always look forward to your videos and I love your necklace!🥰👍🌺🌺🌺

[@ttsandra]

thank you so much Robin!

[@nadienadie6246]

The Surratt Surreal Skin foundation is the most beautiful foundation for a natural skin like finish. You cannot use a lot of skin care under this idk why but just dont because it’s already ready as is and don’t powder it because it’s self setting. And you must get your exact shade. I pop the brush off as soon as I purchase it, no big deal. Foundation lasts all day, looks like you don’t have any foundation on but still gives light to medium coverage. And when nothing else comes out of the tube, pull the push bottom out and there’s still a ton there. tiente idol wears off fast and oxidizes. Surratt isn’t for just anyone, but it’s amazing. Maybe Dew drop is for you. Don’t powder that one either.

[@ttsandra]

i don't like dew drop on myself either when i wear it on its own, i mixed it with lancome teint idole and i enjoy it a lot more. lancome wears so well on me throughout the day. just another reminder for us that different products work in different ways for everyone - and it's awesome that we have so many options! 😊

[@anahitab6147]

How happy I am to hear someone having the same feeling for the tatcha primer! I am very beginner in the makeup work and I was not sure if its me who foes not know how to ise this primer or its the primer that does not do anything for me! Btw thank you for the Bioderma shower oil recommendation! I had tried the Uriage’s shower oil and it was drying for me in the Canadian winters. I am going to give the bioderma a try!

[@anahitab6147]

*makeup world

[@emanuelahysenllari467]

Have you ever tried Ameliorate products? They have great body products...

[@ttsandra]

i haven't yet but i hear great things!!

[@mariahpiper]

What nail polish are you wearing? It's gorgeous!

[@ttsandra]

YSL jungle orange

[@DB-66]

Hey! Which is the citrusy-smelling Rituals bath oil? Thanks for another awesome video ❤️

[@ttsandra]

the happy buddha one!

[@CherryLisa7]

Sandra I’m with you about the It Cc Cream and a funny thing all It cosmetics break me out 🤔

[@ttsandra]

oh no!!

[@freckledklutz]

Thank you for the recommendation for the bioderma shower oil that is a way better price and will last ages compared to the almond shower oil - I think the smell is what keeps people repurchasing. You are right about the affair gloss its gorgeous but can be dressed up or down :) I didn't need spirited away but damn is it beautiful. Kitten mischief looks great on you!

[@ttsandra]

spirited away is such a beautiful shade, i am sure you will be wearing it so often!! the almond shower oil scent is addictive for sure, they do have refill bags available for them which makes them slightly less expensive

[@karola5]

What is your colour in Nars TM? I am late to the party with this one and wonder if I should get it, I feel so uninspired and overwhelmed and I have a blanc space to fill in lightweight base dept :)

[@ttsandra]

Alaska!

[@daisy97229]

Lisa Eldridge makes the most interesting colors. Wish you could have duped it for me. Ha ha!

[@ttsandra]

There’s just something about the undertones!! It’s a very well balanced pink peach brown

[@carlarosa1980]

Ich muss probieren diese Foundation auch

[@murberdraws]

I’m with you, that ItCos powder is the worst. I get polka dot pores! WTH?!

[@ttsandra]

SO BAD lol

[@krisituuuu]

I bought a mini from the It comsetics CC cream. I didn't like it at all. It was cakey, didnt blend well and it was not a long wearing on my combination skin. Dont understand the hype at all.

[@ttsandra]

Thanks for sharing!! at least you only sacrificed a mini haha

[@KasiaLovesStyle]

you look beautiful, so fresh.

[@ttsandra]

Thank you so much

[@catnip4587]

I feel like blue light protection is a marketing ploy

[@Uberbl0nde]

The original Tatcha did nothing for me either. I think we have similar skin types

[@ttsandra]

such a disappointment lol

[@worthigirl2946]

I think yoy have su h a cool look!⭐💕

[@ttsandra]

thanks Ilana!

[@lisacarbone8167]

I never got along with the Original Silk Canvas either…total fail for me 👎🏼

[@ttsandra]

:( :(
