June Favorites 2018: Skincare, Makeup, TV + More | Ingrid Nilsen

[@blogistuff4383]

please never stop doing favourite vids ...they are so chill...relaxing and fun to watch ....

[@meipandafan]

Hey Ingrid hope you’re doing well! I know it’s really conflicting when you want to do what you’re passionate about yet the numbers just don’t add up. Sometimes your viewers want you to be someone you’re not. Don’t let anyone change you! Don’t let anyone judge you for who you’ve become. You’re a strong, beautiful, talented woman. Stay true to who you are and make videos on what you’re passionate about.

[@lianaz906]

I like that you speak very clearly and slowly, which is non-native speaker friendly.

[@CleoLau0318]

Oh favourites video! Older KZbin vibes back omg I'm touched

[@therstev]

Hey Ingrid! I've noticed that your views are down on your videos (and I apologize for occasionally being a part of that problem). I think the videos where you talk about personal issues or politics, similar to your LWL podcast, are my favorite! I would love to see more of those types of videos because I think that's true to your own personal evolution that I have seen over the past 8 or so years I've been watching. I hope that you show videos when you move to NY as well (which is a selfish request because I'm from there, but moved away recently 😩) because I think seeing your authentic self and your thoughts on life is the reason I subscribed in the first place! Anyway, from one queer woman to another, keep on being your best self 💚

[@ingridnilsen]

Thank you so much for this feedback. I have some things planned in the personal /political/mental health/self care realm and you'll be seeing more videos focusing on those subjects once I get through the bulk of some big changes that are happening. (I have a life update going up on Saturday talking about everything!) I love beauty still, so I've tried to find a balance between that and other topics I care about but I completely hear you on wanting more things like you'd hear on the podcast. I want that too and it makes me excited to think of new ideas around meaningful issues. Last thing: you don't have to apologize for my views being down. Yes, it's really hard sometimes and I cry, feel anxious and overwhelmed. It can be difficult not to take it too personally, but I've been doing this for almost 10 years. This is really the first time I've ever seen a noticeable dip and overall, I see that kind of sustainability and trust from you guys over the years as a huge success. Work and life has its ups and downs and this was bound to happen at some point. The exciting part is looking at all of this through the lens of curiosity and potential. At the end of the day, my gratitude for this community is boundless. We've made something truly magical together, so thank you. I'm looking forward to what's next. ❤️

[@vivawaratah1101]

Ingrid Nilsen I’ve been watching your video since I was 18 and now I’m 28! I admire your growth and how brave you are. Keep growing Ingrid. Stay true to yourself and those who truly love you will stay with you (like me)!

[@coffeeinthepm]

I’ve also been watching since I was 18!!! I’m sure you think about this all the time. I’m personally on YT less now that I’m 28 because I’m going through my own life changes. I’m married, extremely busy with work, and going through my own transitions. I agree that I come mostly for the more personal videos. I do watch your beauty videos too, just not as much since I’m budgeting for different things in my life. Regardless, I still love your channel and want to support you even more. Keep up your great work, Ingrid. Please don’t take it personally (I know that’s hard. My therapist tells me this every session 😅). Just know that some of us are evolving and growing right along with you. Thank you for educating me more deeply about the LGBTQ+ community, experience, and so much more. Can’t wait for your life update!

[@AChagoyen]

I noticed that her views have gone down and sometimes I think it's because I haven't been watching her lately. I hope she makes more videos to show her authentic self, more vlog, or maybe call Shane Dawson ;) Love you Ingrid.. good luck moving to NYC. I also did a big move, but from NYC to SF.

[@therstev]

Ingrid Nilsen I just watched your Instagram stories and realized “wait that’s my comment!” You’ve always been one of my favorite KZbinrs and when you came out it made me feel a deeper connection to you and your videos. I think that as a viewer I can tell that you are going through huge changes and you’ve mentioned some of those on various platforms. Like I said, I like the videos where you get more personal and introspective, even the recent book favorites was a video I super enjoyed as a librarian and because you talked about the ways these books affected you and you related to them. Obviously I also love beauty related things and look forward to that content as well, but I am also looking forward to your next chapter in life. I hope it rejuvenates you even through all the anxiety over the changes. Thanks for replying to my comment and opening up! You got this 💚

[@kdeleon5772]

I’ve always struggled with my skin but over the years you and estee lalonde have played a huge part in adopting a skincare routine that has improved my skin drastically (: although the products I use are not always as high end as yours, the overall change in my skin from cleansing my skin daily and trying different products that’ll suit my needs. Always love the homie and comfortable style of your videos🙌🏻✨

[@ellemorera]

You & Bethany were my monthly fav queens back in the day

[@majormalachi1901]

you prolly dont care but if you are bored like me atm you can watch pretty much all of the latest series on InstaFlixxer. Have been streaming with my gf for the last couple of weeks :)

[@jaysonlee4091]

@Major Malachi Yup, I have been watching on InstaFlixxer for since december myself :)

[@marvinnova1553]

@Major Malachi definitely, I've been using InstaFlixxer for months myself :)

[@annali712]

YES YOU ARE PUTTING YOUR MAKEUP DETAILS IN THE DESCRIPTION AGAIN!!!

[@christineberg1303]

Hi Ingrid, I just wanted to take a moment and say I feel you girl. I don’t know what your personal hardships are, but we here in your KZbin community support you. Your videos (regardless of the topic) are some of my favorite to watch. Your political and personal views really line up with mine, and I want nothing but the best for in your life. Stay positive and we will be here for you.

[@CupofTeaParty2]

I LOVE THE BOLD TYPE!!! I’m so excited that you’re watching it! And I’m excited that someone else watching this might be inspired to check it out. I think it’s such an important show.

[@marisacatena8419]

Hi Ingrid! I saw your IG story and read your response to the comment below. I love your idea of looking through your situation through a “lense of curiosity and potential.” In my 35 years on earth I’ve learned a thing or 2 about life as well. The waves are inevitable. We have to learn how to ride them. And when we are at our lows, it’s how we rise back up again that builds our character and strengthens our soul. And that takes courage but also creativity. Being creative in the way we turn our trials into triumphs. You will be ok, as you have in the past. You will figure it out. You’ve made it this far! I encourage you to think of yourself as an artist. Artists have the uncanny ability to take any life experience and turn it into an opportunity to create. Creativity is a superpower. Artists are superheroes. Can’t wait to see what you come up with next! Much love ❤️Marisa

[@AmyJayW]

Thanks for sharing one of your older style videos, I've always loved these! I can't help but to notice how your views have decreased over time and I I'm not sure why, but as a viewer, I would love to see vlogs and a little bit more of 'Ingrid'. I felt like your videos use to really allow us to get to know you and your life and i'd love to see more of this if you're comfortable to do so. X

[@autumnj8897]

I’m so happy to see you love the bold type! it’s one of my favs too 💖

[@meaganhopkins5818]

Hi Ingrid! Just wanted to say you were the first youtuber I ever started watching on a consistent basis (6-7 years ago). I'm not usually one to comment on videos, but growing up watching you (and watching you grow up too) has been really wonderful. You really have made an positive impact on many lives. I love seeing the things you are passionate about, and I hope that whatever your next steps are help you to show how passionate you are. You're doing great!! On a lighter note, add "Chronicle of a Last Summer" by Yasmine Al Rashidi to your reading list!

[@kellip8659]

You've got to try Lush dry shampoo, No Drought. It's a powder and a bottle lasts me over a year. My hair tends to build up a resistance to aerosol dry shampoo and but I've been using Lush's for probably 3 years now. It's amazing.

[@michellefontes6529]

Ingrid I always look forward to your monthly favorites! Your opinion means so much to me! Plus your goofy side showed a lot in this video which made me laugh out loud!

[@kaitlynnrose9294]

I was just going back in time and watching your 2013 favorites and oh my god. Tears. I can't believe I've been watching you for so long!!

[@movedtoaustria]

Shake well the Got2Be dry shampoo between each spraying. Less white layer will appear.

[@irdinasofia9995]

I'm so happy you're talking about The Bold Type! I loved that show - it deserves so much more love x

[@cscamp01]

I just started watching the Bold Type too and I can't wait for more episodes!

[@gml82]

I truly enjoy these videos. You incorporate makeup, tv shoes and even food. 👌🏻❤️

[@georgiarose2968]

make a video about the best and worst dry shampoos! us lazy girls would love it!

[@jaelynrae8836]

Georgia Rose yes please!!! Drugstore included!

[@ashleybeauty5901]

OMG YES!!!! What a fab idea !!!!!!!!!

[@TheScubaBuddha]

YAAASSS - I've been missing these favorites videos, Ingrid! Thank you!! Oh and you are absolutely glowing!

[@meaganthesinger]

You have such a down to earth vibe. I love watching your videos, keep doing you ❤️

[@vanessajackson9459]

It depends what you’re into...sci fi? Doctor Who. Netflix: Lost in Space and The Travelers. Fantasy: Supernatural: 13 seasons so you won’t be running out of episodes soon. 😊. Action: The Flash and Arrow. Also, Grace & Frankie and I’ve started The Staircase. Drama: Victoria, Sherlock, Scott & Bailey, Vera, D.C.I. Banks...

[@bluebananaberrypi]

Love your favorites videos, but also have an idea! I for one would love to see which items are favorites month after month, so would love to see a video of like seasonal favorites, see what really sticks.

[@kelseynuthals9823]

Love hearing your opinions, not only on your podcast about real life topics but also these products you love! Very excited to see your recommendation for a pasta that is gluten free. My fiancé has celiacs so we are always looking for new brands to try.

[@gwenfraser5433]

Sad to to hear you’re having a rough day ❤️ I never look at views on KZbin, I just keep watching my favs and to be honest I think the quality and care you put into making your videos hasn’t changed a bit. Only knew something was up after your insta story. Sending love! I will always watch.

[@luvinlife305]

IM SO GLAD YOU WATCH THE BOLD TYPE!! I was literally about to recommend it in the comments before I watched that part of the video hehe :) It's amazing!!!

[@Coolb33nz]

Love that mascara too!! It definitely does hold the curl, it looks great on!!

[@mels5235]

Ingrid, would you consider doing a best budget makeup & skincare video? I'm in college currently and I'm always looking for the best makeup for the lowest price, because I can't afford higher end makeup. Love your videos, can't wait to see what you come up with next!

[@ChanellMeUp]

Who is just here for the Skin Care?? #SkinCareJunkie 😩😩

[@ChanellMeUp]

💕💕

[@lira9275]

omg who would have know you watch her as well, and yass now I see what you skin is always flawless. Love your videos!!!

[@katelynnebaluyot3485]

Me!!!

[@adizorfie4059]

Meee

[@mtiempo]

The Blithe crystal ice plant pressed serum is one of my favorite skincare items!

[@liliangarciaballesteros6183]

I love you!! Thanks for your great content and honesty always!! Sending hugs from Mexico!! ❣🤘🏼

[@lp4ju]

I've been loving the bold type as well...

[@tarawx]

I love the bold type!! yes to everything you said about it. loved the video!

[@The_nostalgic_witch]

I love the sense of self videos any chance you’ll be doing more of those? 😊

[@Gigglypeach]

The Simple Water Boost cream thingy is almost an exact dupe for the Clinique moisture surge if you ask me! I use it in the morning too, it's perfect for lightly oily/combination skin! :D

[@keyboardbunny]

A lot of people have issue with using the flawless filter by Charlotte Tilbury. I find 1:2 ratio mix in with foundation is great. I don't use it under or on top. I just mix a bit into foundation and it's great. Otherwise yeah it's a thick paste

[@skylarcorby5482]

love island uk on hulu!! idk how you are about reality tv but it’s my guilty pleasure and it’s my favorite one i’ve ever found!!

[@EKOlife37]

Your review of Safe reminds me a lot of Broadchurch, very suspenseful and you never know what way it's going to go until the last episode of each season. 3 seasons. David Tennant is in it and is amazing.

[@jellow242]

yes! i love the bold type and i want more people to know about it!

[@Krohini12]

I love ur favorites videos. U have now made me want to watch the show “Safe”.

[@mariannakuzmanova5387]

Omg I've used that dry shampoo but I like the tropical scent better! It's still strong but it's not annoying. X

[@DakotaSpencer2012]

LOVE The Bold Type! I secretly hope Jane gets back in with Scarlet lol

[@claudianeu97]

How do you get your hair to look so good? Please do a hair care routine and how you style it! Your lob is what I want mine to look like

[@sara-ql1xs]

I used to watch baaack in the day and wow your content hasnt changed at all xd

[@tatchabeauty]

That glowing skin though.....! 💜

[@SteveG1313]

Try Killing Eve! It’s a BBC show but you can find it on OnDemand. Short season, but VERY good!!!!

[@PolinsBridgerton]

REgarding dry shampoos - not sure if you've tried already I don't recall seeing it on your channel but try Amika products. They are excellent hair products. Strong scent but overall amazing products. :)

[@IuliaLup]

Great to see a favourites videos! My favourite section is always the books and tv one :D always looking for recommendations:)

[@marcipatd]

Omg I love that you ended this video with pasta! Im also a pasta lover and in search for a healthier option. Where can I find Banza?

[@lovely-voicesv4216]

Loved that show !!! Watched it in with my bestie!!!

[@corissaross1775]

*product falls “Bye👋🏻” 😂😂😂

[@anyabrych5260]

Loveeeee The Bold Type! Katie Stevens actually went to high school with me and it's crazy to see how popular it has gotten :)

[@thatweirdperson1814]

Sense8 is such a good show!!! It's on Netflix and has heaps of representation. Also, don't we all love The Bold Type (and Kadena)?

[@staceypleasants]

Have you tried Colab dry shampoo? It's amazing.... Great scents and no white crap...it was created by Ruth Crilly (aka a model recommends) I got mine in the UK, not sure if you can get it in the US. But seriously, if you can get your hands on it buy lots!

[@acrrazywriter]

I tried out the Banza pasta this week with friends!! It was... a strange cooking experience. The water turned very thick and opaque! It freaked me out a bit. The pasta was really not bad, though, as a gluten-free alternative! :)

[@KiminChina]

Ingrid has the best skin

[@rosecardamom]

I love chickpea pasta!!! Oh and can you do more vids about NY, or like NY vlogs etc? Love you 💖

[@hannahsloane9106]

You should watch Superstore! It's a really good comedy that addresses a lot of current social issues without being too serious. There have been three seasons so far and it's all on Hulu. Also, it would be awesome if you did some more makeup tutorials. You used to do them a lot more and I think they're great!

[@lacy6081]

Have you tried the Hask dry shampoo? There is a coconut scented one. It’s from the drugstore

[@christinat.7171]

Thanks so much for the chickpea pasta product. Didn't know about it and I am g.f. :).

[@ingridnilsen]

It's so great! The boxes are a little small (8oz.) so I always make sure to get multiple!

[@njesseable]

You have to watch Killing Eve. I think you would love it, it's so good

[@aditikatbamna]

Always excited about your favourites video!! 😍❤ love you! 💛

[@Baloo10100]

Hi Ingrid! Great video! Would you be able to do another best drugstore makeup and skincare?

[@christinaaseltine9282]

I LOVE the Bold Type!!!!!

[@kathleenklimek2965]

Christina Aseltine me too!

[@kkdoes]

Loving the new transitions!

[@trolearo22]

Love Banza & The Bold Type & you!

[@sundaisies23]

try the chia seed dry shampoo! it's one of the best i've ever used :)

[@lkus662]

The bold typeeeee!!!! Yaaassssss

[@nomytheone]

I love your favorites videos!

[@sadiepeddycord1623]

hi ingrid! you should try the love, beauty, and planet grapefruit dry shampoo.

[@alexandramelanie390]

you should try the Urban Decay Big Fatty mascara. My all-time fav but I don't believe they have a waterproof version :(

[@alexandramelanie390]

It has the same effect as the Monsieur Big, but for a little less because it's always on sale at Ulta.

[@lisafay1171]

sense8 on netflix. SO good!!

[@magickgirl786]

Omg Ingrid, The Bold Type is amazing and is one of my favourite shows too! I remember seeing an ad for it when it was playing on a TV at my gym and all I saw was the title and that one of the taglines was "Break the Patriarchy" and for sure, I thought that it was going to be one of those typical girl power shows with only white women like ALWAYS seems to happen these days lol and when I looked it up on Wikipedia, I as pleased to see that there are not one but two WoC in main starring roles. After watching it, I loved seeing important issues being brought up and having great rep for WoC and PoC as well as LGBT issues.

[@magickgirl786]

For TV show recommendations, I would suggest the following: 1) Shadowhunters, 2) Jane The Virgin, 3) Brooklyn Nine Nine, 4) One Day at a Time and 5) Agents of SHIELD. I am pretty sure they are all on Netflix and they are all great because they have good rep either with PoC/Woc or LGBT characters or both. I really hope you read this comment and that you'll watch one or more of these shows because I am sure you'll love them!

[@ItsyouHanne]

If you loved Safe, you should watch The Five. It is made from the same producer, Harlan Coben which is a great crime author!!

[@leahpintol]

SAFE WAS SO GOOD!!!! I haven't heard anyone talk about it!

[@mariejohnnssonncrafting2513]

Night and morning routine please xxx

[@HippieRoads]

Is the ud a primer or setting spray or both?

[@vidr5797]

"Iam over here with my very STRAIGHT eyelashes" hahahah love it 🤣❤️

[@beautyfromwithin0173]

I love you sooo much , Ingrid!😍💕

[@yariiiglecias9093]

I live for your skincare faves 🙌🏼

[@ramireztiffanyc9982]

Michael c hall is amazing on six feet under too!!! Best show ever

[@meyriema.3672]

Hi beautiful i am living in France many products you present in your video are difficult to buy here i hope to have it in internet....

[@MidnightSunJJaz]

Ingrid! Hart of Dixie is amazing!!

[@gria2003]

Hi I have watched you from the start. I think youtube is making it harder for us to find your videos up loaded. I got though my Subscribed videos all the time and I’m like I saw everything. But then one day it’ll be like why didn’t this video ever show in my subscribed thing I went through all my videos I had nothing to watch but the sun is posted for days ago.think that is hard and other KZbintalk about this too. I started watching the bold type because of you and I watched five episodes yesterday. I try so many things you suggest and I love. Keep up the great work. I love your Instagram story’s too. Can’t wait for this Saturday video I will watch it first. Wish you were closer you seem like you make a great friend. 💗

[@jordaneby8291]

I'm so early! In the 7 years I've been watching I've never been this early!

[@ashleybeauty5901]

YAs girl !!!!!!

[@janicexarcalas]

Now I want to try the dry shampoo!

[@jessicawins7495]

Is your skin on the dry or oily side? I have dry skin and have had the hardest time finding products lately.

[@bliplee]

I can 1000% attest to the got2b dry shampoo being THEE best ever!! I'd also recommend DryBar Detox Dry Shampoo. I'd say it's on the same level as -got2b-, but it doesn't come out as white/powdery as got2b...the downside = the price point is higher. You can find it at ulta/sephora, it's worth a try! They both work wonderfully tho, got2b is about 7 bucks vs. DryBar's 23 bucks... for that price, I'll gladly take some extra powder I can brush outta my hair, lol! PS: I use got2b's Rockin' It Dry Shampoo and it smells amazing, not overpowering or anything!

[@maureenbrown8920]

Any advice for skin care around your period? My skin is clear until a few days before, but then I break out into this deep and painful acne :(

[@monicashweta9]

Please do a makeup tutorial!!

[@honeyspidersp]

Michael C Hall is such a talent! If you have not seen Six Feet Under you should check it out.

[@nmernst]

:). Cool stuff. I am watching C.B. Strike series on Cinemax and The Haindmaids Tale (also read) on Hulu. I love that pasta too!

[@Lacassyla]

Hey Ingrid! Have you tried the LivingProof dry shampoo? That one is really good at absorbing oil :D

[@AlixLeFay]

I watched the video this morning and it's now 1am, ever since this morning I've been meaning to come back to it to say I would love for you to make a video about internalized homophobia. I don't remember what part of the video it was related to, haha, but I know I had this thought. Been trying to figure myself out for years and only recently i've staryed hearing this definition... if it's something that you are comfortable doing, i would love to hear your experience 🖤

[@emmacauvin]

Yay, a new favorites video 😍

[@blogistuff4383]

"Bye" I laughed so had after that 😂😂

[@JustJay]

That lip color is so pretty on you!
