You're beautiful and have infinitely more personality than some jerk who puts people down for cheap laughs, so try not to let him live in your head rent-free! Sending love 💕

[@StateofKait]

Thank youuuuuuu

[@MakeupandMentalHealth]

Yes we come for the cream blush, but we definitely stay for the sassy commentary. It’s just such a feel good space.

[@StateofKait]

Oh thank you! That means a lot to me

[@TaraBrooke]

MAC glow plays really are phenomenal.

[@sharonavraham290]

I have brown hair I didn’t color it for a few years and am loving it- I think your hair is soooo pretty

[@StateofKait]

Awww, thanks. I hate my hair. It's just so thin and blahhh looking.

[@jacquiwinter6282]

This was really fun. I agree with you re: good drug store staples; find products that work and spend money on fun stuff for variety! I’ve only recently (past year) gotten into blush. I went from one (what?!) that I used day in and day out, to adding 6 (!) more. 💕

[@StateofKait]

Thanks! I personally need to dial back my blushes, I'm trying to use up what I have before buying anything new. I just love how different blush colors can change the way your face looks.

[@jessicareynolds3326]

That was so fun! I just added so many of your faves to my wish list. The MAC amorous alloy looks INSANE.

[@StateofKait]

It's SO SEXY

[@Gracedoesglitter]

You’re not boring and you don’t look like every blonde girl. I loved this! You da best, Kait!

[@StateofKait]

Thanks, Grace. That guy has got to goooooooo

[@rebeccahegewald9170]

I absolutely love this kind of content! Thank you so much. I have loved everything I’ve bought because of your recommendations. When I run out of my current foundations I think I go for the Makeup Forever Ultra HD. Anxiously awaiting the one and done, and dupes videos!

[@StateofKait]

Thanks! Let me know if there are any other fun tag videos I can film. The one and done and dupes videos are coming up, I'm just learning how to use my new Canon camera so I can make the quality better for everyone :)

[@makingitup_byisa]

Ok, I might have to steal this video idea because it's freaking awesome!! I love that you applied everything on your face too!

[@StateofKait]

Do iiiiit

[@SarahJaneFitness13]

You always have the best one shade and done shadows

[@StateofKait]

awwww thanks

[@marianasoares6697]

I knew you wouldn’t be able to pick a favorite blush 😂

[@StateofKait]

Oh yeah, we knew it wouldn’t be possible

[@allarab2612]

Omg I’m so sorry that guy was such a d**k to you!! People don’t understand how much their words can stick with a person when they say something carelessly/in an effort to be funny. I think you’re awesome. There is a quote that I think is really powerful and it goes something like “ don’t take criticism from people you wouldn’t ever go to advice for”. Keep your chin up xx

[@StateofKait]

I LOVE that. I will burn that quote into my memory, it's perfect. Thanks for sharing that with me!

[@TaraBrooke]

I looooove that Kaja trio!!

[@jenniferlee9029]

Love these types of favourites videos. How about a one product category video for skincare? I love your channel 🥰🥰🥰

[@StateofKait]

I'd love to do that! No one watches my skincare videos but that would be so fun to film. I'm super passionate about my favorite skincare products because my routine doesn't change much.

[@marissawolf610]

Thank you for sharing that you try to find hero products ☺️ That's what I need to.. meanwhile I love 💕 these videos 🤗

[@StateofKait]

Thank you!!

[@s_alien]

I have mixed feelings about the Saie blush...the ingredient Symphytum officinale is not deemed safe even for topical use by web md and other sources.

[@TS-hp8cm]

I wanted to comment on how beautiful all of your recommendations looked but HAD to stop and say that IDIOT at the party was dead wrong... I follow your channel because I find you so beautiful and unique looking...you are literally stunning. Nothing short of stunning. ALSO intelligent and well-spoken but undeniably beautiful...Bye boy.

[@StateofKait]

Thank you for making me feel all the warm and fuzzies this morning. I appreciate you!!

[@debifier]

Loved this video! Great tips throughout. I especially appreciated the FitGlow concealer tips because I’ve been really perplexed by it. Do you use the beauty sponge wet or dry? Also, F that insecure guy. He probably wants everyone else to feel as sh*tty as he feels. Don’t let him achieve his goal. You’re awesome and beautiful and brilliant and fully unique.

[@StateofKait]

Thanks! I use my sponge dry but it specifically works for this sponge. The Wander Beauty cushion is so soft and squishy on its own, it doesn't need water. And thanks...that guy SUCKS. I'm mostly thinking of ways to get back at him if I run into him again.

[@allarab2612]

Also I agree with the tubing mascara being wet at the start. I don’t use the thrive one but the one I use is also wet at the start and then become perfect after about a month

[@StateofKait]

Which tubing mascara do you use? My boyfriend's mom said Thrive is flaking on her and I'm trying to find her a new one.

[@allarab2612]

@@StateofKait I’m from Australia so the only one I was able to find at drugstore pricing was by MCoBeauty and it’s called XtendLash in the white tube and silver lid. I’m not sure how easily you could find it in America :(

[@leelie28]

This was such a fun video to watch! You've inspired me to do a face of my favorites as well. I'd love to see a video of your favorite monochromatic look/ a color story that speaks to you and how you achieve it? That might be super niche but I did it recently and really enjoyed myself.

[@StateofKait]

Thanks! That sounds really fun. I do love a rosy terracotta all over the face.

[@cflex7914]

Have you tried the elf wow brown in neutral brown? I don’t find it warm at all. I have a similar hair colour to you although I have some blonde in it and I use both taupe sometimes and neutral brown sometimes. Loved this video! I love seeing people’s favourite products. The best of the best! Also don’t let that rude guy make you feel small in any way. You are absolutely stunning. I’ve thought that since the first time I saw you. You are anything but forgettable.

[@StateofKait]

No, I'll get neutral brown next! That sounds perfect! And thank you, that's really sweet of you to say.

[@Jessdinius]

Fantastic recommendations! I apparently need to try that laser treatment

[@StateofKait]

I'm really loving the results

[@KZ-qx2jd]

I have darker hair than you and also use the brow stylist in brunette. It's a go to for me also.

[@StateofKait]

It’s so good!

[@a49-n2o]

I have the carrot colour pot in healthy and i love the shade!! 😍😍

[@StateofKait]

oooo maybe I'll have to look into that! I just remember it being a very yellow brown but my color preferences have changed in the past year and I like more neutral/bronzey blushes now.

[@jackiec759]

I think we might just be makeup twins. I REALLY want that phytosurgence highlighter but they are always out of stock (I know, I know 1st world problems) I agree, sticking that with hero staples is the way to go, especially for complexion products. I have this thing about sticking to what you know. I really thought your were going to choose kosas 10 sec eyeshadow in globe. (love that shade + formula) So excited to see your dupes video. Oh at that man child that made that comment you mentioned, know he has to live with himself.

[@StateofKait]

I think Phytosurgence has restocked a few times so definitely sign up for the wait list! I love Kosas Globe in terms of the color but I actually hate the formula! L'Oreal Amber Rush is super close but not as glittery :/ But it's so affordable and sooooo pretty

[@jackiec759]

@@StateofKait thank you for the suggestions. Love me a good dupe, especially a more affordable option.

[@AshleyRebeccaa]

Ooh, this video reminded me that I’ve had that Mac shadow sitting in my cart

[@StateofKait]

It's sooooooo damn good. I'll film a video with it soon so you can see

[@kimforbes7942]

Wow you look beautiful!!! I am definitely going to try some of these products. Is the concealer OK if you have some creepiness under your eyes?

[@StateofKait]

I think so! I only have my own skin though. But the Fitglow concealer has some amazing skincare ingredients and I do find it to be my most smoothing concealer. Just remember to use a small amount - a little goes a long way

[@jonreed2611]

Can’t wait for the laser treatment series 🔫

[@StateofKait]

Pew pew!

[@kaetikae]

I so badly wanted to try the Makeup Forever foundation due to your awesome videos! Sadly, they still test on animals, and I just can't... ☹️

[@ArabellasTarot]

Oh I can’t believe people have negative things to say. I so enjoy and sometimes think I have to unsubscribe because I purchase so many because they look beautiful on you!

[@StateofKait]

i wish sooo much charlotte tilbury would make a mini of the fairest shade. i’m so pale but i just want it as a highlighter so can’t justify the full size. maybe i’ll try shade 2 ://

Yes! It's so unfair they only make minis in 4 shades, I don't get it.

You’re amazing and fuck that guy. I wanna try the brow pencil!! Tried the wow brow cause of you and love it. Keep being you because you and your content are the best❤️

💚👁💚 re: your search for the Hourglass Scattered Lights in Ray, have you tried the Tarteist™ PRO tT Go Palette shade BOSS? Not sure if they are dupes, not even sure you will even see this so many months later but it came to mind while your swatches were on screen... 💚👁💚

[@StateofKait]

No, I haven't BUT I think I just found a dupe! Colourpop a little quarky

You got me curious with the foundation- have you tried Nars Sheer Glow and how does it compare?🌹

[@StateofKait]

I haven't! I love the Make Up Forever so much I've never gone out of my way to try the Nars, but I'd love to. It looks fantastic. I do believe the Nars sheer glow is much more glowy looking than the MUFE invisible cover fyi.

Your make up always looks so pretty! Have you tried Prisma Palette shadows? I bet something there could replace Ray. Maybe rose gold or metallic blush going off online swatches? I think she makes custom colors too. Nevermind that stupid guy. He doesn't know what he is talking about.

[@StateofKait]

oooooo I'll look into that. I'll always try a potential Ray dupe!

[@shamsybamsy6915]

Wait what did nudestix do?

[@StateofKait]

I stopped supporting them I think around Fall 2020. They launched a concealer a few months after the BLM movement gained global momentum and they launched the concealer with about eight light shades, three medium shades, and TWO dark shades. Absolutely wild. And when consumers left comments/DMs and expressed disappointment and anger, instead of listening to doing better, they deleted the comments and moved on, yet they posted in support of black lives matter. It's all performative and fake. They don't deserve my money.
