INDIE BRANDS THAT BLEW MY MIND

[@krystalkalikala]

I love and appreciate independent brands. Back when I blogged, they were the ones that showed me the most support and I still purchase from them to this day because they work hard to improve their products (packaging, formula, pricing, ingredients). They care so much that it makes me care just as much too!

[@chastitycatt]

Thursday: Holy cats, I have so much blush. It’s going to take me 400 years to use all this. Friday: Thank you for your order with Phytosurgence.

[@missvinnet5507]

"Let's blend it out and pretend everything is fine" My personal life strategy in 2021 lol

[@sophiesmyth9809]

That lip colour rocks, no joke loving it

[@dredrecrevoisier]

PHYTOSURGENCE IS LIFE. The blushes are a top formula to me.

[@ambcage]

I love how when you’re loving your blush game, you smile to yourself while applying it. Lol

[@samanthaimrie2918]

Yes to indie beauty! It’s fun to hear about makeup that I don’t hear about all the time.

[@nicolleglover4470]

I’m such a big fan of Phytosurgence. I’m so happy to see a review of their products!

[@veronicaguadalupe9684]

The Vesca bronzer went on so smoothly!!!

[@jamiebrennan671]

I love that you are rockin’ the robe, gold necklace & the Easter nails!!! Perfection! 💕😽🤌🏻💕

[@Izzy-ln8jc]

I just need to let you know that I accidentally got Quite Stoned™ this afternoon and binge watched like 6 of your videos and it was very soothing, 10/10, would highly recommend.

[@ellesmelly]

im probably the last person on earth who has been hunting for the inc.redible blushes forever for the specific shades but i think theyre going defunct and the phytosurgence blushes look SO similar with a better formula and even bigger shade range bless edit: and theyre from my hometown omfg!!! it just keeps getting better

[@alexissmith4575]

Your mani is bringing me joy 💕

[@autumnhamm9381]

I love the lip color! Honestly it looks peachy to me? It’s like a slightly lighter version of all the colors on your cheeks! I think it’s totally awesome! 😍

[@valeriefreeman6766]

I like it too. Looks gorgeous on and it's definitely not lavender.

[@delilahc.3554]

Already thumbs up before a minute in the video because...duh, it’s Kackie, of course it’s going to be good! 🙌🏼

[@millyk222]

True that!!!

Appreciating the daily uploads. It's inspiring me to put on my makeup everyday. And makes lockdown a little less boring.

[@StateofKait]

The lip color was perfect!

[@csdsa]

Been sooo obsessed with Phytosurgence! I have an order out for delivery right now and have been meaning to get amber aura and potent petal in my next order -- but saw potent petal is out of stock probably because of your video lol!! Their blushes give me life

[@megancrothers]

completely unrelated to this video but if you are like me and plucked all your eyebrows off in high school trying to look like Avril Lavigne... put the Thrive mascara on the few eyebrow hairs you have left. It is AWESOME. Tubing brow gels need to be a thing!!

[@gianninal5455]

As someone who picks at her brows and at times goes shamefully too hard (currently recovering from a recent slip of carelessness) this tip just left me shook!

[@annikaognjana4224]

The daily uploads are my favorite thing to look forward too these days :) they just make me so happy like watching claire saffitz level happy please keep going

[@BeccaSunshineGirl]

I'm here for the indie brands! 💞 I love Root and Thrive! I need to try some more of these. I love indie brands with my whole heart because they put so much intention into their products and they usually represent their customers more than their bottom line. A lot of them were born out of such passion for a cause.

[@hannahlapham4638]

I've been keeping an eye on phytosurgence! now I need to try their eyeshadows! I would love to see your review of alima pure, and a revisit to elate.

[@ambarr365]

Looked up phytosurgence after this video. Would love to see a video from you testing more of their products!

[@rebekkakhigson]

The lip crayon in Enduring by axiology is great! But the Bliss is really good on you!

[@orlenisguevara4947]

Thanks to you I discovered pyt cosmétics and I can't wait to try them, keep the good work! You are like a clean beauty tati 😬

[@ryliedejong7190]

The nails are FABULOUS!

[@TheNarcoticMonkey]

You have to try Give me Glow, Touch of Glam, Glamshop Poland, Lethal Cosmetics, Kaleidos, Adept Cosmetics and so many more. They are indie brands.

[@karihendrix6491]

First, I have to say the nail polish is so fun today! I've recently started seeing ads for Toups and Co Organics. They have skin care and makeup. They look super interesting, has anyone tried anything.

[@oliviaalmada1817]

Immediately bought the eye shadows after watching!

[@ellenabrams1002]

Love this video! So many favs and so many new items on my wishlist 🤩 Are there any obvious shade dupes in your collection for the Phytosurgence blushes? Particularly Fervor vs Glossier Storm - are they similar or do my eyes deceive me? Thanks!!

[@lisaha5565]

Thrive is totally still indie! It’s independently owned and I think being indie is more about not having a parent company than it is about not being big.

[@mimirooney5034]

Phytosurgence just came out with highlighters! I would love to see ur opinion on it

[@trendytotesmackenzie3200]

In regards to your lips: yes, it’s working! I love the blush and eyes too.

[@sunshineliz5297]

The lip looks good just maybe with different face products colors. Lovely

[@karataylor3434]

Did you have any primer on in this video before the arrive? Your skin looked lovely and glowing!

[@StateofKait]

Phytosurgence is SO GOOD

[@jessical4226]

Speaking of Thrive, love my Thrive mascara, I am a total convert. I honestly don't know how I used to be ok with having mascara smudges under my eyes all the time. Thanks Kackie for introducing me to that!

[@andiethegreenqueen]

That lipstick is perfect on you! I love it!

[@jerrijones09]

Oh yeah! I ordered the blush👌❤️ I got the fume color. Totally don’t need more cream blush 🙃 Im also pretty excited about my new pat mcgrath headed this way!

[@i_bleed_makeup1187]

"There are so many brands at Sephora that want to charge you an arm and a leg. And your first born. For a cream eyeshadow". Ahem *clears throat* Charlotte Tilbury 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I just placed a Phytosurgenc order (I'm in the US), and the shipped it within 2 days! It hasn't got here yet. But I'm SUPER excited 🥰

[@karolynanderson2033]

So here for Indie Love!

[@a49-n2o]

never thought I'd hear "im not crying you're crying" in another context 😭😭😭

[@gianninal5455]

Your makeup game is so strong that I find there's no sense in "judging" til the end. Admittedly, there was an angle where I felt the Vesca bronzer wasn't blended out well or just not what I felt was a good shade for you (as if my opinion on that matters)...then you asked if it was over the top and I was leaning yes (though wouldn't have necessarily come to the comments to say that) but by the end I was like yea, wow, it looks just right [for Kackie]. Especially the lip. I felt it looked really nice. It seems silly to ask bc at this stage I think expecting cream shadows not to crease is just a wasted hope but I feel you said all of the products you used truly dried down, despite the look of the finish, so it seems fair to ask if the phytosurgence ones do or not?

[@gracewilliams1999]

Obsessed with the lip

[@stephmgreen]

Hi 👋🏻 there.. peeking at an old video and I must know.. is that white gold highlighter actually white? Like Becca pearl? Or is it a little deeper and peachier? I want to pick it up but on the website it looks like it might be too dark for me.

[@courtneycullen6289]

Temper is SUPER pretty. (I have ego too), but after I used it, I reached into Divine Rose 1 and patted that gold on top. It's an unfair comparison. But still. I have both and that gold is satisfying. But I find myself using the Temper topper as a sort of scattered glitter on more complete looks. I like it. I just wish it was as satisfying as Ego,

Pleeeease review Haus Labs! I just got some eyeshadows from them that are sooo pretty and I would love to see what you would do with them! Also just sayin - they are having a site-wide sale right now...

[@rosanneabdulla5774]

Please teach me how to lip line! Is there a reason to line on your actual bottom lip instead of right underneath it? You’re the only person I’ve seen do that, so I have to assume that it’s a secret trick that I don’t know 😂😂

[@SilentGallina]

What she is doing is putting a barrier on her lips to keep lipstick from bleeding and to keep her traditional lip shape. Lining under the lip is a form of overlining that can look pretty in photos but irl it's very noticable.I don't overline and do it similar to her, does that help?

[@kackie]

Yep, what she said. I already have lip filler so I don’t overline!

[@rosanneabdulla5774]

@@SilentGallina Thank you! I guess I wasn’t thinking that drawing directly on the lip border would technically be a form of overlining, but the barrier thing makes sense!

[@SilentGallina]

@@rosanneabdulla5774 only time I *slightly* overline is for black lipsticks. However on norm i don't because my lips are full naturally and that asking for lipstick on the chin lol

I never buy anything from the States or Canada 'cause I don't want to deal with customs (really) but these small brands doing so much with so little...I'd really like to try something, but I don't know how environmentally conscious is to buy something from overseas. Those eyeshadows are majestic tho, really wanna try them

[@whostolethepenguins9549]

oh my gosh, that's something I think about constantly too! Like I see things I'd like to try but if it ships from so far away i feel bad

[@EvaLoVerde]

@@whostolethepenguins9549 it's something we underestimate but it's so crucial! Like, I almost never eat avocado, cause to reach Italy they're shipped from South America. How damaging is for the environment that avocado toast I crave so much?

[@carleysavage4384]

Had to google "ostensibly" today because after the 5th video of not knowing what it meant my Leo a** finally swallowed my pride and googled it Ostensibly - os·ten·si·bly /äˈstensiblē,əˈstensiblē/ adverb apparently or purportedly, but perhaps not actually. "portrayed as a blue-collar type, ostensibly a carpenter"

[@kackie]

Yeah it’s like saying “I’m assuming, maybe incorrectly”

[@maebandy]

Ostensibly clean beauty acts like a cosmetic catholic confessional and leaves you looking virginal or at least half a virgin. Then I realized that most luxury CB brands made their debut on the goop website next to the cooter candle offering, so I'm dubious of the claims and associations of such n'er do wells.
