I’ve been so neglectful with makeup and skincare since all this quarantine stuff started. I really need to start using what I have and what more videos. I totally enjoyed hearing about your favorites. Some day you’ll have to tell us more about your time in Japan.

[@motildamulgrew]

If you miss the makeup and skincare, then start using it again, Catherine, but don’t feel any arbitrary pressure to. I’m glad you enjoyed hearing about the ones I liked best this month. Perhaps I will.

I need that Essence blush, highlighter. Glad to wake up and watch your video with my ice coffee!!!!

[@motildamulgrew]

I really like it, Andrea. I’m always glad to have you here, as you know, and I’m glad to accompany your iced coffee!

I LOVE the o'keeffe's lip repair! I love the cooling one the most.

[@motildamulgrew]

Okay, now I’ll need to seek out that one, Pamela. I didn’t realize there was more than one type. Thank you for letting me know!

[@pamcakemix]

motilda mulgrew if you don’t mind that minty tingling feeling then you will like it. I love it personally because it makes me feel like it’s working haha

[@weltschmertzz]

Binge watching your videos! KZbin and social media in general needs more intelligent, relatable and realistic reviews like yours. Love that you use natural lighting. ❤️

[@motildamulgrew]

Those are incredibly kind sentiments, burgerpatty. Thank you very much. I’m glad my reviews are helpful to you. I really am.

Hi Mo! I like to wear a lip balm with SPF every day too. It's nice when you find one that doesn't have that funky SPF taste. I'm trying to use some of my eyeshadow palettes that I've been neglecting before I buy more, but I still really want the ND Bronze palette. I have to get one of those sponge holders. My sponge is always rolling off my vanity, and it drives me crazy. You are so right...why aren't more companies making these? I just watched a video by Lisa J, and I was thinking that I really need to pick up a couple of her BK Beauty brushes. And then here you are talking about one of her brushes. I think it's time to place a BK Beauty order. There's lots of great info in this video, my friend. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us on all of your July goodies. I hope you're having a wonderful weekend! ❤️🦋

Hi Karen! I think of you when I’m talking about the Bronze palette. You’re very good about using the products you gave, which I really appreciate. When the time is right to get it, you’ll know. I hesitated on the BK Beauty brushes, mainly because I’n not a huge brush person, but this particular brush has really been a pleasure. I got sine eye brushes, too, but I haven’t had enough time with those yet. I hope you are doing well. Enjoy the rest of the weekend!

Hi, Mo! Ooh...I'm really liking the looks of that foundation brush. I was beginning to think that I was the only one who purchased the Sakura Blossom palette. (By the way, I really like it, too.) I always like your choices!

[@motildamulgrew]

Hi, Claire! Yes, it’s really nice. I was a little surprised that it wasn’t quite as dense as some kabuki brushes, but I think that may be why I enjoy it so much. I thought I was the only one who bought it. Now I feel I am in good company!

[@irmabeadles3739]

Hey Mo! 👋 First, idk when it’s your B-Day but Happy Birthday 🥳 and best wishes 🎂. So many nice products, I’m going to get the Blushlighter it looks great! When you said I’m not a hair person I felt that, my hair is very similar to yours so I just let it be 🤷🏻‍♀️. Happy August 🌻.

[@motildamulgrew]

Hey, Irma! You are always such a cheery presence. Thank you for the belated birthday wishes. Happy August to you, too!

[@YukinoMayazawa]

I've never used the BK brush, but elf has a similarly shaped one that's only $10! It's called the Beautifully Precise Airbrush Blender

[@motildamulgrew]

That’s interesting, jenmhn-I’m not familiar with that brush. Hmmm...I’m curious as to how the compare. Thank you!

[@carolynmareck5112]

The guys who use the lip product probably also use the O’Keeffe’s Working Hands, which is an excellent product too...enjoy your day, Mo!

[@motildamulgrew]

I haven’t tried that, Carolyn, but I’m always up for a great hand lotion-thanks for the tip. Enjoy your day, too!

[@carolynmareck5112]

motilda mulgrew ...It’s not remotely luxurious, but for someone whose hands take a beating, it’s great!

[@josiegrace6830]

Hi Mo! That color of top looks so pretty on you!

[@motildamulgrew]

Oh, thank you, Josie. Funny story: it has a logo on it so I turned it backwards for the video😁

[@josiegrace6830]

That’s too funny!

I've just subscribed, because I so enjoy your presentation style, and my skin and eye coloring are nearly identical. It's hard to find reviewers who navigate that tricky neutral palette that makes certain makeup colors look simply terrible and makes others sing. If I may make a gentle suggestion: I'd love for a long video like this to come with timeline stamps and product names in the description box. Not only to decide if I can spare 24 minutes on a particular day to hear about unknown assortments of products, but so that I can search the video from archives later. I understand that it's a lot of work for you, so perhaps not doable, but I think it could take your channel to another level. Regardless, thank you for your content!

[@motildamulgrew]

Hi Sanni-I’m very glad to have you here. I’ve thought about adding times/products, but I’ve always kept my description box short and sweet. The ‘archive’ aspect is something I haven’t considered before, that’s interesting. I will consider your suggestion and I appreciate you giving me specific reasons for the request-I find that helpful. Thank you for the compliment on my ‘presentation style’ that’s very thoughtful.
