EMPTIES - SPRING 2021

[@cathyridley3005]

I cut into all of my tubes . You wouldn't believe how much is left in them. I can get another 3 or 4 uses.

[@user-ii4rq5ko3x]

Me too. I was actually shoving a cotton bud into the bottom of my cut up LRP lip balm while watching this video 😅. Got to get our money’s worth ☺️.

Hi Nadine just want to thank you for all your hard work I am fifty three new to KZbin only stated during the crazy pandemic I have been catching up on all your videos and decided to try some products that you have suggested you have completely changed my skin care and my teenage daughters thank you thank after watching you I don’t feel guilty any more looking after my self for a change great budget products too you have been my angel in lock down thank you 🙏

[@redolentkate]

[@maryalonzo3834]

I purchased the Nexxus keraphix shampoo and conditioner and I absolutely love them! My hair looks, smells, and feels great! Tangle free and the length is the longest it's ever been. Thank you Nadine for introducing all these wonderful products and thank you Nexxus!

[@simbagabrielle5891]

I was about to say “wow; you’re hair looks so healthy! Love the blunter ends” ... and then you started talking about your hair! I think it looks great! 💕

[@melindamaplewood8676]

I'm in the US and have been using the Nexxus Keraphix for years. My hair isn't really damaged but thin and sheds but I love it. Especially the scent. Divine.

[@thebritishbookworm]

Thank you soooo much for this. Going to buy the Inglot!

[@redolentkate]

I jumped on the Olaplex 0, 3, 4, 5, 6 & 7 train last fall/winter (the Sephora fall sale & holiday sales helped out a bit) for a bit of damage control after realizing I gave my fringe a peroxide "cut" over the summer, don't ask, but I did enjoy the brassy, sassy bright orangey "sun kissed" glow while it lasted, thank goodness it was just the fringe, mostly. Totally agree on hair loss ~~ you don't realize till you have "bangs" that you don't recall cutting or your already small pony or bun is "all of a sudden" super tiny. I have just to the nips length hair ~~ and now some below the eyes fringe. I feel Olaplex saved the rest of my hair, used No 0, one bottle , 4 treatments with No 3, still pop the 6 & 7 on occasion, still have some 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 left and stopped the straight up peroxide dip ~~ I know, I know, like I said, don't ask. Not a heat style gal ~ can't be bothered, but have hair similar to your type Nadine~~ 53 year old hair, a bit of temple greys, dyed various reds at random times over the last 35 years, thin and fly away, dry ends, a little frizzy, and a wavy curl, as I just air dry. Your and Michelle's (lab muffin) Olaplex reviews helped me take the plunge and then I stumbled on the Beauty Hags video when you mentioned Keraphix ~~~ thank you, thank you! Way more realistic purchase for a shampoo/conditioner duo than the Olaplex $$$$ to use on the daily, I alt with WEN (does anyone else still use WEN? If they did? I still love it -- and a smattering other other randoms) For US folks you can usually get the 33 oz keraphix at your local Target or Ulta ~~ and both usually have frequent sales, buy one get one etc. Patience and persistence are key. ~~ Keraphix so freaking good and the smell? OMFG ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥! Freaking heady & divine, so thank you for the excellent recommendation Nadine!!! It is heaven. Oud, tobacco, leather, my favorite scents. Ladies if you have fine, compromised ~~ be it heat or dye and hair of a certain age like ours, dip your toes in the so, so affordable Nexus Keraphix deliciously divine waters. And Nadine, your hair is looking, has been looking, silky, smooth, divinely, fabulously honey colored! Will be eagerly awaiting your review on the newly released Olaplex No 8 ~~ the new moisturizing treatment mask. Hint. Hint. I just ordered via the Sephora spring sale, why not sag that discount?

[@S-R-H]

I go through one Japanfusion cleanser a month. It's been that way for years. I tried to quit BeautyPie, but I couldn't live without OnePowder Wonder, the FutureShing lip balm things and Japanfusion.

[@melbygrace]

I love your empties! Olaplex is terrific. Let us know what you find with the Bobbi Brown dupes and I will look here in the USA for you also. I found: - KKW Fade from Classic one (magnetic pan, not glued) - Spyder from Mel Thompson Tiny Marvels - Makeup Geek Americano (Cherry Cola has more red)

Thank you for mentioning the hair breakage you get from chemicals. I stopped coloring my hair three years ago. It's very healthy now.

What a shame about your fringe - your hair looks lovely however. When you pulled it back and joked about Carrie Bradshaw it really suited you! x

[@teresaosborne8483]

Give Trish McEvoy shadow in I believe it's called aubergine to replace the BB black plum. It can go on wet or dry,terrific for tight lining

[@MsSamchester]

I'm sure it's very annoying for you but I have to say, your fringe at that length looks really great! I think it's lovely shape! Thanks so much for making these videos, I know it's your job to test and show us new products but I really value seeing what has actually made the cut to be used by you long term as I don't like buying loads of products just to waste them! xx

Thank you Nadine, I’ve been feeling really (genuinely) down and depressed, and stopped caring for my skin. This is a world first for me, and I’ve just realised how much this indicates my mood. But, after watching your video, with your gorgeous self, in your normal no nonsense approach, I feel that some of these products may possibly kick start my reset goals. Fingers crossed, and thank you again 🤗

I feel your pain on the Bobbi Brown. They discontinued my favorite shadow/liner Rich Navy. *sigh*

[@jordanxfile]

Hey Nadine, I think you can look into Inglot eyeshadows for a dupe of that Bobbi Brown one; they really have a lot of shades and a lot of finishes. Underrated brand in my opinion.

[@redolentkate]

Inglot is totally underrated!

[@Kat333ify]

Nadine, happy you showed Tigi Bed Head, the line is a bit forgotten, but there are true gems, you should try Small Talk (on damp hair after wash before BD, its even better- conditions, gives serious volume and protects from heat). Your hair is like mine, and I bet you'll love it despite of blueberry bubble gum smell ;).

[@allaboutdaniel]

Omg that PINK stuff in the bag looked like something else lol

[@mostcreative3680]

Nexxus does make styling products for sale in the US. Theres a prep/prime spray leave in, a styling balm, a blowout cream, and a mousse and hairspray. Its not got any revolutionary ingredients but it does work great on medium to fine hair types. They all have petrolatum and mineral oil in them which usually scares me off just due to the heaviness of those ingredients but the styling balm and leave in are very lightweight.

[@jessigreer]

I always blew my curly hair out with a dryer with literally no effort. All of a sudden around 40 yrs old I just couldn’t make it happen anymore and so think it had to do with more grays and a lesser quality of hair...I took two years to completely go curly (that long because I avoided the big chop) and I really think giving up that blow dry/heavy heat routine saved my hair. I still use a diffuser...

[@mariacancello8696]

Nadine - there was BB black plum eyeshadow in the Cosmetics Company Store at Bicester today. If you contact them they may send you one 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

[@louisebourne7653]

I went to Mac to see if they could match it up, but the Mac one is so wishy washy with not much guts to it. I’ll be waiting for your updates x

[@Costanza_G]

Hello Nadine, a suggestion for the eyeshadow: KIKO Long Lasting Eyeshadow Stick in 50 Deep Violet, I know its not a powder but could work! 😉

[@annepennistongray5133]

Dance in the Dark by Mac is a dupe for Black Plum.

[@mckee309]

I have thick, frizzy grey hair and the Keraphix shampoo works great for me too.

I was thinking how much I respect you and trust your recommendations. Just wanted to share.

[@lilt1317]

You are much more pleasing to watch when you are not messing with your fringe, it seems to have become a habit that you couldn't break.

[@mayatasa]

Sadly, i havent used any of those products as they dont sell them where i live, but, i have started tight-lining the eyes like you showed in your previous video, and i love the outcome 😊 thanks for that ..

[@jennybolter1102]

[@michaelafischer6177]

I'd like to add that folks who are prone to congestion should definitely not feel the pressure to add up so many empties (not referring to Nadine's video but most beauty influencers). Most brands will have a recommended quantity that you should apply, which is usually worth following, e.g. 1 pump or 1 pump per half of face, etc, but with acne-prone or easily congested skin, not overloading the skin with moisture is a standard rule among dermatologists. That's not to say don't moisturise or don't hydrate--far from it, repair that oil-water balance--but figure out your threshold, try paring back on layers, or try using less product per application. As someone who has worked with acne skin for a long time, minimising the amount of product, and choosing potent treatments (such as retinoids), often produces much better results than the sort of insane layering, 12-step routines so common on KZbin and unrealistic Vogue videos. Recognise your skin type and work with it. Someone with extremely dry skin will be able to use a lot more product than someone who is combination or oily. That said, I just love an empties vid, and Nadine's are some of the best. I love seeing really brilliant products return in her routines. Consistency is so important, and so many influencers encourages us to switch up and buy something new every other week. People ditch products if they don't see a radical change in a fortnight, not realising that skin cycles (let alone collagen production) are much longer processes, and only things like acids or strong retinoids reveal added overnight effects. What I love about Nadine is that her approach to skincare is so REAL.

[@beckyc.5743]

Nadine, I found a pretty good dupe for BB Black Plum. It’s by Tarte and called Leader. I have it in the Tartlette in Bloom palette (bottom right hand corner) but don’t know if it’s available as a single.

[@ladyesther]

Yeah, the front top and sides of my hair have new growth, but just not what it use to be. :(. I feel your frustration.

[@abbeydawes5786]

Same 🥲

[@gilllondon8617]

Agree that the Nexus products are brill. Love the Toleriane serum too for when my skin gets rebellious - particularly useful around sensitive eyes needing a bit of extra moisture.

[@user-ii4rq5ko3x]

Would you suggest using the Toleriane serum daily or only when the skin is rebellious? It’s been on my wishlist for a while but I’m so fussy about using up products before they become ineffective that if I don’t think I’ll use something up within 9months or so, I won’t buy it 😅. So unless I can use it daily, I’m not sure about it, but I keep seeing people rave about it.

[@margod9464]

Please ask the shampoo/conditioner makers to put the words 'shampoo and 'conditioner ' in a larger font. When in the shower with no glasses on it is so hard to see which is which. Thank you!

[@kmreed295]

Live this video ❤️ I’d love a Beauty Pie update I’m using the Uber Youth super serum with peptides and it’s so good!

[@karincope3019]

I love Olaplex products, they work with our extremely hard water, my thick fine ( oxymoron to me ) hair which is bra band length and the fact that I have to use so little of the product. One of your great recommendations that I used , Cerave I am so thankful and my skin loves it - that is your number one recommendation that I will use until I die .

[@annfarr4605]

I'm now on my second bottle of LRP Toleriane Dermallergo serum and have bought a third in case it gets discontinued (something that happens to me fairly frequently it seems!!). Got my 80-year old face through all sorts of horrors last year. So thank you for the information 😀

[@user-ii4rq5ko3x]

Being nosey - what do you put on top of it? A nice moisturiser, or? It’s been on my wish-list for a while.

[@annfarr4605]

@@user-ii4rq5ko3x Yes, I put on a moisturiser from Look Fabulous Forever (makeup for the over 60s) plus the Absolute Sleep Cream from M&S which I love to bits! The moisturiser changes all the time as there's so much to choose from and Nadine mentioned a new one last week which sounded really modern and incorporates some of the serums. That'll be the next one!!

Love Nexxus range, especially their mask, but much cheaper to order from Iherb, than Boots. Thinking of joining BeautyPie too.

[@EscWithVicki]

I’ve used Nexxus shampoo and conditioner since your recommendation, as you say it’s sold out many times on the high st, so buy it when you see it. I believe my hair is stronger along with less heat, stopped daily straightening a year ago when 1st lockdown came in, just use my dyson hair wrap now. Every little helps, just need a hair cut now !

Love your hair.. is it cut straight across blunt in back or is it a slight curve?

[@angelauk4]

I also love the Beauty Pie Japan Fusion range. But your comment sums it up “waiting for restock”. Time and again with Beauty Pie you really like a product and then it’s not available and you have to check back in. Why don’t they have “back in stock” notifications? They are so inconsistent. Every few months I just think all I get is a whole load of frustration for my subscription. I don’t think I have ever been able to get everything I wanted on an order. Something is always out of stock. It’s a shame but the business model breaks down in this one.

Most eye products seem to be marketed for the under eye wrinkles. At the moment I'm using NIOD. Is there anything you recommend?

[@carmengail61]

Great question!!!! I want to know as well. Age has caused my eyelids to droop, so bad on one eye that it actually bothers my eye a little. Seems I heard one time that Botox could help lift the eyelid up but I really don’t know. Something to investigate I guess.....

[@kckc4955]
