+10 for laser eyes animation

I'll make that suggestion for the next iteration of google glasses! Loving your anatomy vids! I see a collab in the works!

[@claudialaroja1225]

Hahaha laser eyes!!! There are oh just so many ingredients I want to know more about! Thanks! Luved this vid! 😊

[@Msbeautyphile]

😆😅😅 Yeah. I use them for reading cosmetic labels and decimating enemies 😜I certainly wouldn't mind them as a mutant power. Hey -- would you mind lending your feedback? Should I do one on cosmetic packaging or is that to snore-ing?

Goes super well with last video! One thing I learned and am super glad to know now is just how many unnamed ingredients and chemicals can be in "fragrance". We see paraben and preservative free everywhere recently, could we talk about why we should or shouldn't avoid those things and like what substitutions are used?

[@Msbeautyphile]

You're so right. I do need to do a video on parabens and preservative free. I just hope the people that encounter my channel for the first time are as good as my subs, and can have a real conversation about these topics without it getting hate-y like the internet sometimes gets. Here is an old video where I touch upon a case where preservative-free actually works (dry products with shorter expiration dates): kzbin.info/www/bejne/pInMqqGjmb-Xm7M I'll definitely get on these topics in the next few months. It would be a valuable discussion to have.

i never buy anything without reading the incis! i am obsessed with ingredient lists because i am super sensitive to any kind of fragrance, butylene glycol, niacinamide etc... my skin hates a lot of stuff basically lol. gotta love the ASS SYSTEM!

[@Msbeautyphile]

Haha. Yeah. Me and my bad jokes 😉 I just thought it was funny to have a standardized system that pulls from all sorts of different names! I mean, Latin?!? Really? If you have a fav go-to tip that you use when you're read the list of ingredients, I'd love to hear! I'm always iinterested in hearing how other people do things.

I usually look for sulfates. Good if my hair is super oily, bad if it needs extra moisture!

That was interesting and helpful!

[@Msbeautyphile]

Thank you Karen! I hope you have some new recipes -- cause I've been working all week and I am tired of spaghetti 🍝 and take out food. Making me some dinner tonight!

[@CookingLessonsforDad]

If I was there I would! I just ate toast with avocado with a sprinkle of Kosher salt! That is easy. You could make it!
