@azeitona Yes I got a new camera! It's super HD. :D Thanks, I'm glad you like the upgrade!

[@christinaa0612]

I love your necklace, Jen! Thanks for taking time out and putting in effort to make this. I love watching your videos.

[@AugustTien]

Jen! I just wanted to thank you for bringing up your covergirl mascaras! I have super super short lashes and it wasn't until you recommended them that I tried them and I seem to have finally found something that works!!! Thanks again for your videos!

[@justinechoiiii]

[@crazy4kayz]

[@VyILY]

I literally jumped when i saw a new video from u ! Loving the new quality :)

[@lovepoohet]

[@raaachaeel]

obsessedddd with your nail polish!

[@frmheadtotoe]

@missjudy717 It depends on where you purchase it from. CVS has a really great return policy and you can return even if you opened the product.

[@frmheadtotoe]

@leadingxlady I'm wearing Fairydrops BB Cream in Ochre. I really love it and the color is a lot more yellow/tan than Korean bb creams!

[@danilynn13th]

yayyyyy i waiting for a non boring vid in my sub box cause all of my other gurus i subbed too r just all tags and boring things soooo thanks for the vid girl!♥

[@idontknowkarate]

while you're incredibly beautiful and have great make up skill, i think the most appealing thing about you as a makeup guru is that you're so KNOWLEDGEABLE, DOWN TO EARTH, and WELL RESEARCHED. You are so unique and you're a great make up guru! keep it coming!

[@sangxayasouk]

I absolutely LOVE your makeup.

[@Tammy-123]

I friggen love your videos you're so real

[@errrrbear]

girllll your makeup looks AWESOME in this video!

[@blondegirl1221]

Wow I love your hair, it's gorgeous. And so are you!

[@an0malistic]

The Milani Liquifeye has been the absolute best liner for my waterline. I tried a ton, and they would all slip off in less than an hour, but this one lasts all day. I highly recommend it!

[@PinkCookie62]

Great vid! Hope u do more like this. I like my higher end makeup but have been sampling drugstore & am now obsessed w/ those L'oreal HIP shadows. I have a bunch & my fav is the 1 u r wearing, electrified I think yeah? The comfort zone palette is also surprisingly great. Enjoyed watching. : )

[@1MayTiZZle]

I'm in love with your necklace. what a great statement piece

[@liz110]

i love the look with the natural makeup with the pop of color in the necklace!!

[@Denny3190]

new video! Huzzah! i love your hits and misses! always great advice :)

[@mvaske]

that eyeshadow is soooo pretty especially on you jen! I am going to have to get it tomorrow!

[@frmheadtotoe]

@TheCappucine Lately I've been loving Fairydrops BB Cream in Ochre (I got mine from Pretty and Cute), Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua foundation in B30, and Makeup Forever Mat Velvet in 40. They are all yellow-toned and match my currently MAC NC30 skin.

[@dluciano08]

I love your look in this video... I especially love the green necklace!

[@cheeriocandee]

i am LOVING your eyeshadow today! sometimes i actually wish i had a monolid because the way you can apply your shadow is SO pretty.

[@mei885522]

I love drugstore products review!

[@luvmyjjj]

Hi, Jen! Just wanted to give you a tip on how to "refresh" the wet n wild gel liner. Fill a mug 1/3 full of very hot water. Make sure the cap of the gel liner is screwed on tightly and place the whole container into the mug of hot water for 30-45 seconds. Voila! The gel will no longer be dry. I've tried that with mine, and it worked. Hope it works for you too! BTW, you are one of my favorite gurus to watch! Thanks!

[@Ponceization]

..your make up here looks beautiful, dewy, and flawless. i have to say better than when you wear your other make up. And the blush you have on looks better than the other blushes you've worn! Great vid!!!

[@Quinceejackson]

Wow your makeup looks soo good!

[@Pinklipglossed]

Love your videos! Your Hits and Misses are my favorite... especially when you incorporate asian cosmetics

[@rtongcn]

I have the same nail polish. Love it!

[@vannessamlt1]

Make up always look so well done on you. I wish I could make my make up look good.

[@dbskdramaluver]

CG lash blast is my all time fave mascara! in waterproof of course

[@frmheadtotoe]

@BarelyPeach I am recycling it! No worries. I didn't throw it out. :)

[@KamAngel123]

lashblast fushion The Dark purple one, same chape as the lashblast but its dark putrple ! it does EVERYTHING !!

[@frmheadtotoe]

@kelsodragonlady You can always get color matched at their counter for free! I'm actually not a huge MAC obsessed person and I don't like their foundations but people just use MAC shades so others can easily reference it and know what skin color you are. Their shades are wide-ranged and logically set up. [ie. NW = pinker undertones, NC = yellower undertones, and colors go from lower numbers being lighter (15) to higher numbers being darker (45 is darker than 40)]

[@precious69cool]

Love the necklace!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@gdluv6654]

I love ur makeup in the video!! Ur soo pretty! Love seeing ur videos!! -3

[@yaelypower]

I wasn't listening to what you were actually talkign about, but I love the sound of your voice!!!

[@uhhspork]

I totally agree about that covergirl foundation... I'm white and i prefer more yellow-y foundations because i'm pretty pink to begin with and they just look better on me!

[@strawberry2233]

I totally agree, invest in great skin and base products and go to the drugstore for a lot of eye makeup. You are soo pretty btw!

[@singingmonster07640]

oooh i LOVE milani's liquif'eye! i usually use it for eyeshadows cuz its so creamy..

[@Evieee96]

[@jeraldine111]

[@irenethanasi123]

you are not only one of the most beautiful asian woman I have ever seen, but seriously one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen from any ethnicity. Your face structure is just so perfect! mesmerizing looks!

[@nutella871]

Bobbi Brown Gel liner FTW. I've had mine for almost two years. It's still creamy, it still lasts. Yeah, it was $24...but I bought two years ago. And I still have so much product left. Love love it.

[@Tyangeluv]

you look gorg! love your makeup here

[@icekream8]

You convinced me to buy over half the products that you mentioned lol thanks for the great reviews!

[@AgeOfZombies]

gorgeous necklace!

[@xfonnt]

Yay new video :D Thank you Jen~

[@sweetpuppy120489]

I don't know if you know this tip or not, but to bring the WnW gel liner back to life, just put some warm water into a bowl, then put the gel liner in a ziploc bag to block the water, and soak the gel liner for about 5 min. When you open the gel liner, it will soften and you can definitely mix the gel up to get a unified texture. I do hate how it dry out so fast, but I loveee it sooo much.

[@sophistication021]

I bought the Physicians Formula Mineral Powder and blush and I love it! I tried a lot of their products and I think those two products are actually worth the money.

[@chelsealm100]

I really like that you're a little bit closer to the camera than usual in this video. I feel like I can see the products and your facial expressions much better! And your nail color is AMAZING!

[@TaraE83]

I love your eye makeup. Tutorial please!!!

[@thestylistprincess]

you look so beautiful today !! love your vid.

[@fibreartist]

I love Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Face Powder as well and totally agree with you on the packaging and the crappy brush that comes with it.

[@MsSlim96]

i love that way your necklace looks on you :) the colour really pops

[@amrox7x]

i liked your video as soon as it started.

[@aaandieee]

I just got back from 4 months in Africa and WOW, did I ever miss our voice Jenn! Seeing this vid was like reuniting with one of my friends, ahaha! Keep up the great work : )

[@Chuchuqq]

i love your lipstick in this vid!

[@Lima_Bunny]

i LOVE LOVE LOVE your necklace

[@littomika]

You look so fresh in this video! beautiful as beautiful :D thank you so much for sharing!!! and your hair is getting so long! love it :D

[@TheCappucine]

@frmheadtotoe thank you! ive been searching

[@elmozakuro]

I like your vids because they're intelligent, down-to-earth, and your makeup never looks overdone (as opposed to some makeup gurus'}. You'd make an eloquent news anchor.

[@MySweetWhispers]

OMG! Please do a makeup Tutorial on this look! AWESOME!

[@weendybaby]

I was very happy that you liked the pencil sharpener! all my pencil sharpeners break my milani eyeliner :c thanks!

[@lastxodus]

love your necklace!

[@Teacupgirly]

this was very helpful, thanks!

[@KouzukeRan]

jen, you can revive the cream gel liner using glycerin and sterile water. I saw it by Enkore, and tested the method out on some of my liners which dried out within a month, despite not opening them. it does work!

[@Caimille]

Jen, your skin is looking fabulous!I love the comfort zone palette! I also love the Wet n Wild single eyeshadow called Nutty. It is very soft as well though,mine fell and is 1/3 broken...but I don't care!

[@jayceetsab]

LOVE you nail polish color! :)

[@loverelapsing]

Lash Blast Fusion in the purple tube. Volume and length.

[@xMissfizzlerx]

Jen! I'm like you too.. i strongly dislike drugstore foundation/face stuff... but I tried Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse Foundation! It gives a flawless coverage, I suggest you try it out!

[@ameeracho]

you look so pretty !

[@deliciousexylips]

I love the covergirl mascara! If you want length and volume, get the purple colored tube by cg lash blast. The orange is just for volume and there's a yellow one that's just for length.

[@010murmur]

wow you look so pretty, your makeup looks so natural

[@SagesMa]

Make uP tutorial pls!! You look stunning in this video! So soft and natural!

[@ullipant]

I don't know why but your voice is very relaxing to me lol Nice video btw :)

[@heartinjapan]

thx for the review Jen on your products from the drugstore haul. I feel like people do hauls but never then tell us if they ended up liking the product or not. teehee. I appreciate the follow-up ♡!

[@swtalot]

i really like listening to you. your voice is beautiful :)

[@mirukutoh88]

Tutorial! your Look today! Looks fab xoxoxo

[@ilahking]

i love the necklace you are wearing！

[@vannie589]

make up tutorial of this please. looks really nice!

[@frmheadtotoe]

@piggiesmalls4 This is true to an extent. In my experience, extraneous packaging in high-end makeup usually represents the brand and quality makeup inside such as with YSL lipsticks or Rock & Republic blushes. When you use it, you appreciate the packaging even though it's bulky. With drugstore products though, it feels like they are "faking" it to seem nicer when the product should speak for itself. Plus, this is a hits & misses. It's my job to be picky!

[@frmheadtotoe]

@DecayChaser I honestly have to disagree! When I tried out NARS Orgasm it was definitely not as pigmented as Pearlescent Pink, plus I also feel like PP is more of a true pink tone while Orgasm is much more peachy-pink. It's much closer to NARS Deep Throat in my opinion. ;)

[@JessicahLikes]

love how quick your cam focuses! woo woo!

[@cdramakid]

PLEASE DO A MAKEUP TUTORIAL! again..you're amazing!

[@francesell]

finally, a new camera!

[@chelzhi]

Ohh I love your make up here.. PLS. DO A TUTORIAL for this one

[@katchimo]

I just bought the Milani eyeliner and I looooooooooooooove it. It's super super soft, I dunno if it lasts very long but there's no tugging when I use it. And CVS has a buy one get one half off deal atm. I dunno how I feel about the brow pencil I got but the eye pencil is love!

[@superchic2020]

i love ur hair

[@KateBagabaldo]

my Wet & Wild Mega Eyes Cream Eyeliner is dry sad because that was my fave. eyeliner so bought a new one :)
