LEFT ALONE FOR 24HRS LOL

[@bekkalea2465]

I’m really digging the “all-over-the-place” vlogging, were you just share what goes on in your mind, it doesn’t need to be an event or so for me. Also, I feel the same when I’m alone for a couple of days, thinking about a less consumerist lifestyle and actually reducing all that I have that is material in any way.. I’ve been moving a round a lot lately due to my studies and really felt that the essentials were always the same, whereas all the other stuff is just so unnecessary and only clogging my life. Trying to figure that out as well 🤍Thanks for sharing!!

[@MarggiePisacano]

I really love how you discussed how you got caught up in the influence too.

[@ginja1109]

Meryl is my favorite! She makes me miss my fur baby, I love that she is so talkative

[@kealeywindle2684]

I have bod so I have had to stop watching the vlogs that are just product based my youngest went through my makeup last week and as painful as it was I am in a better make up situation

[@norab3836]

I love Meryl so muchhhh she’s so talkative

[@almasmjecanin1349]

this is giving me old school vlogs from you! like you're back in vancouver!

[@Tish_Ann77]

A good friend of mine helps out with an organization called "Got Skills" where every week they take young men who don't have father's in their lives and teach them different skills. Sometimes it's how to dress for a job interview, sometimes it's how to tie a tie properly, some weeks it is how to operate a lawnmower, other weeks it's how to prepare basic meals, their last get together was giving back. They helped out a food pantry. I think something like that is priceless because those life skills are so important and it's something young people don't learn in school. You have talents to share, maybe sharing those with young people? something along those lines?

[@carterumhau5961]

Allana--so love hearing your thoughts about your "quarter-life crisis." Even though I'm in such a different industry, still so relatable. Would love to hear more in the future. I haven't tried minimalism, per say, but I'm always trying to live minimally in terms of my exposure to technology/social media. Trying to keep my brain/heart/creativity fresh! Also, as a video idea re: your question about where the beauty world is headed...would so love to see you do a video where you try to use the same 10 products or so for a week, doing different makeup looks with that limitation. As someone with a TINY collection, this would be a super fun way to learn how to be creative with makeup while also coming from a more minimalistic place! xo

[@emiliaistead9921]

Actually love the little talk while you got ready! I feel like you should do more of those getting ready and give you personal opinion. I get that it must be scary because of the negativity you tubers get when they but their opinions but I would really like to hear more about what you think 💕 it can be deep or just unpopular opinions 😋

[@cassandrag8433]

I love the very end of your description box : "I edited this video & we need Dejan back LOL" That's hilarious, its still great editing regardless!!!!! I really liked this vlog, I feel like it hit ALL the Lan spots - meryl, fitnessythings, make up rant, vlogy-doing-ish things

[@jacintasalt8731]

The pre-made outfits are genius! Yes, to video outfit prepping.

[@fris.eecurly]

This video has some nostalgic old school lan qualities, love ❤️❤️❤️

[@mnikmarie]

yeessss LOVE the vlog!!! also living for the mid-video monologue on consumer culture and the beauty industry- it's so overwhelming and I personally admire your content so much because you don't show endless streams of new products and new launches, but rather stick to what you know and love and I am so here for that. i love the honest discussion about it all, it's so great to know other people are thinking of these issues and starting to figure out ways to be more conscious and sustainable. you're starting from a great place in lessening PR and consuming less fast fashion i think!! being educated is key, and it's so cool that you opened up about this stuff, absolutely LOVED this video and you in general. you rock. 😘❤️🌿

[@courtneyallen5636]

I'm loving the self-discovery journey you're on and I would love to see more vlogs like this as you explore that further. Volunteer work can seem scary and big to tackle but find something you're passionate about and start small, just an hour of your time here and there. You are such a radiant personality, wherever the KZbin beauty space ends up, your videos will be watched because you bring so many qualities to your work. It's not just beauty

[@sablealexis8077]

Everyday ‘boring’ vlogs are my favorite! I love the talk about being more minimalistic. I’ve been trying to go low waste for about two years but clothing was always hard for me and I started doing a capsule wardrobe after watching your clothing videos and it’s so cool! I’m loving it so far. It makes it so much easier to not want to buy everything!

[@sophielavoie9893]

I appreciate you so much A! You are one of the realest out there and so down to earth. I am a history teacher and a cheer coach and sometimes it’s hard to escape from work because I love so much what I do! I catch myself watching history vids at midnight thinking about what I could use for my class and when it’s not that, it’s cheer vids to inspire me to create better routines for my kids. KZbin is full of those two subjects, but sometimes I just need a break!!😅 This is where you come in handy! 😂 I truly feel like I’m just listening to a friend, since you talk about real everyday stuff!! (even when you’re in a funk, I often feel the same way 😂)! I never leave comments, but I just got done with my last internship to be a teacher and you really did help me go through it! Thank you so much A. I wish you Happy Holidays! Thanks again for your realness! 😌❤️ Love from Montréal!

[@hollytavi5576]

Your hair is sooo lovely, it looks really naturally wavy! I'd love love LOVE to see more hair videos from you

Come thruuuuu with the hot edits, Lan! We love Dejan, but you still got skillz! ♥️🤗

[@amandaaapereira]

Guuuurl, I feel you on the whole minimalism tip! I watched that documentary last year and began really decluttering my bedroom (where I spend the most time) of STUFF and clothes I’ve had since I was like 14. I declutter my room at least once every few months - even if it only means I’m getting rid of an old pair of socks or trash I’ve accumulated. Fast forward now to less than a year away from turning 30, and that whole minimalist attitude is being applied to my personal life - purging everything and everyone that doesn’t bring me joy or add value to my life!

[@melindamartin5644]

I also get random urges to declutter and honestly I feel soooooo good after and to know that someone else can use the items I purge brings me joy 😊❤

[@stephlewis2914]

this year i started fostering kittens and supporting my local spca. i've found so much joy from doing this! i know its such a small step and little thing but seeing new families adopt these kittens gives me so much hope and joy. i've also really tried to start shopping my closet, taking unused things to consignment and buying from thrift stores as much as possible. now i'm sticking to buying the basics if i have to and building a smaller more wearable closet. i'll have you know, you and sam have been key in making these decisions for myself so THANK YOU

[@bhmnn]

would love to see how you shop your closet/put outfits together/where you get your inspiration!! definitely feeling the same about over-consumption and i love that you talk about it on your channel - the first step is starting the conversation and where to go from there 💕

[@shifanakhan]

It’s awesome that the documentaries had a positive affect on you. You’ve always kept your make up collection to a decent size for a KZbinr. I love the vanity you had from your grandfather I hope you still have it. ☺️❣️

[@olivialofts8649]

I’ve watched both documentaries. Since watching minimalists a few years ago we decluttered massively and have been so much happier since. Everything is so much easier when you have less stuff. And game changers reinforces the idea that we should all eat more plant base. It’s great that you’re talking openly about this though, makes you really genuine ❤️

[@sarai1722]

Love how real you got in this vlog.. it really speaks volumes admitting that you got caught up in the whole 'influencer' buying unnecessary fashion products, but are now taking a step back and being true to who you are 💗

[@tinagreen529]

The minimalism doco really made me think about not just the crap I have lying around in my room but when they kept emphasising the idea of 'living a deliberate lifestyle' that really has stuck with me since. They have a podcast too and it's really interesting to listen to!! loved this vlog, u and meryl xx

[@carolinaladowski3396]

I could watch meowryl eat her entire breakfast and I’d still want more cat content

[@mariamhaideri237]

This was such a joy to watch. Reminded me of the everyday may vlogs in your Vancouver apartment. I love to watch these kinda chill videos when I’m eating or getting ready!

[@christyboyle2570]

Love the talk about minimalism, and putting together outfits to avoid shopping ❤️ great inspo

[@faithannalyn6584]

It’s so weird that so many people are beginning to feel this way. I agree with you. I’ve been feeling compelled to stop shopping and being an active consumer unless it’s a necessity. Something has been nagging me inside to be more helpful and more minimal and it’s so hard to decide and figure out what to do. Love your channel. Perfect little ramble video to watch while painting my nails. Love watching and having a video from you everyday.

[@wendywoobles]

Loved this vlog, I really enjoy seeing what other people do on a regular day in their life. Plus I love your place, drool. And your kitty is so adorable! Thanks for always providing a great escape even if for just 30 minutes. I really appreciate you taking the time to do these.

[@cambroslice]

Also love your idea of shopping your closet. I find that when I invest in quality pieces (either in material or make) they end up being timeless and I never get tired of styling them season after season

[@eggegg8181]

I love this vlog!! I love these types of vlogs - they feel like a throwback to the old KZbin and I’m loving it. I’ve been feeling run down today but this vlog cheered me up :)

[@JenAlguire]

I would love to see a style my closet/shop my closet vid! I’ve lost almost 40lbs since June of this year... a lot of my clothes are getting silly big on me but some I’m also able to work around so any ideas on how to pair tops/jeans with sweaters/blazers - yes please!!! 💗💗 Love seeing Meryl always. She’s such a sweet little darling

[@olliiivvviiiaaa1]

i think that’s why i love your videos bc you’re not materialistic like the general beauty gurus and like no one cares about their flashy lifestyle. i watch your vids for makeup tuts & your personality bc it’s fun and relatable. i don’t even think i’m subscribed to any “mainstream” beauty gurus

[@stefaniekirincic1741]

I am totally on board with your buy less feelings. I can’t afford to keep up with all new products and launches so I definitely find it more inspiring and relatable when influencers “shop their stash” or show you new ways to use products you already own!

[@emilie7331]

LOVE this real-style vlog! Sometimes it can feel like youtubers and influencers have perfect, glitsy lifes and it can really make me question my own life and what I’ve achivede so far, and it’s SO nice to see that your life also contains boring laundry, bills and insecurity about your own life! Looove you Allana

[@sablealexis8077]

The sorting your outfits pre hand is honestly genius! Would love to see videos like this in the future! Or even how to style one piece multiple ways!

[@nastya_ul]

Watching this while I'm alone at home doing my self care and weekend routine - perfection. I'm feeling lately exactly like you, having the need to declutter everything in my life and be more aware of my consumption. The last Black Friday I was so stressed about buying stuff, but in the end I managed to make smart purchases that I'm really proud of without anything unnecessary. I feel as I'm growing up I hold more meaning for experiences and memories rather than material stuff.

[@chaakashicon]

LMAO laughed at that two second clip of you stirring you HOT coffee in a glass WITH a STEEL straw! 🤣 (I know this courtesy of Jaime Paige)

[@keagangrotjohn5915]

[@madeleinehopwood8369]

Hey, I loved this style of video! Good job on the editing, too - you still got it! ;) I appreciate you sharing some of the things you're grappling with right now about our culture; I think these conversations are catalysts for big-picture change! And as for volunteering, I think it's one of the most generous things we can do. I have volunteered with a crisis line, and also as a counsellor at a community counselling program, and it inspired me to go to grad school to become an actual therapist! It feels so good to give back. So I really hope you're able to find something close to your heart that feels right for you - I know your zest for life and glorious sense of humour will be appreciated no matter where you are! :D

[@Jen-zk9se]

I find a good purge of things and stuff soooo satisfying 💛 It’s my go to activity when I’m feeling blech with life. Purge and organize! It’s very restorative 🧘‍♀️

[@megandene2806]

OH MANNNNNN I totally get you on the minimalism and feeling overwhelmed by stuff! I think especially for people our age there is a huge amount of pressure to present yourself in a way that showcases your status through brands and high ticket items. We’re so influenced by influencers that even personal instagrams are coming off like they’re advertising. It isn’t all negative, some days I’m so inspired by Instagram! I’m excited to see where social media is going, I think there is a movement coming where the “real” is embraced, which makes me hopeful for positivity, diversity, and acceptance to flood the internet world! Thanks for getting us thinking in this one ❤️ xo

[@jeansalin4937]

my fav video. love hearing you just chit chat, been feeling those feels too. xx

[@melanieruth6915]

Thank you for being so honest and open! I always focus on how much of an art makeup is, and art and beauty is always worthwhile for its own sake. So in terms of the beauty blogger space, you are adding your art to the conversation and sharing your insights with others. ❤️ I’m hoping social media content continues in this honest, inspired, artistic vein!

[@ltsings2]

Yes, definitely need to do shop your closet vids! When I’m going through my closet I put outfits together of clothes I haven’t worn for a while. If I wear and don’t feel great it needs to go! I feel like you are moving more towards the sustainability route which I’m here for!

[@shaylabutton13]

I love your honesty. You don’t need flashy things to have people watch your videos. I watch your videos because you seem very down to earth and you’re hilarious. Also, love this makeup look!

[@ssali59]

I've watched that documentary and I've been so interested in minimalism over the last year. I recently read digital minimalism and I would definitely recommend it, it's very enlightening and helps you look as minimalism in other ways not just items you own, it's more than that

[@laurencemantha1382]

yes I totally agree with you, I feel overwhelmed and annoyed at ALL the new makeup and launch. It's so much and all the time! I love when you do more "real" talk like that and vlogs

[@groverae]

I wish I had the dedication to working out that you do😭 you should do a workout video talking about motivation!

[@rhondalozon2546]

Love your vlogs I've never missed one!!! You rock girl! And watched the minimalism documentary last year and its life changing. When you stop associating happiest and joy with items and stop trying to fill a void with material items you literally change completely. Its amazing!

[@kaitlinniemiec7744]

Yes I was very inspired by the minimalist documentary! I’ve also been inspired by Sam and haven’t bought any new makeup in months. I love that you guys are doing the Project Pan and using what you already have.

[@susannam3733]

Been feeling the same recently about consumerism and influencer culture, and could not agree more with your sentiments. I will say that the beauty videos I love best are the ones that give tips/tutorials with the beauty products not emphasized or not even mentioned. I like your video that shows how to stay warm in Canada with puffy coats and stuff - like, you showed the clothing brands you got those clothes from, but they were only suggestions to the tips you provided. 10/10 content 🙌

[@parkedawn]

I've noticed in the last year a bigger focus on reducing, reusing, repairing, recycling! And I am here for it! I usually do a quarterly editing/purging of "stuff". I give it to family, friends and charity. My 2020 goals are low-buy. We have upcoming home repairs in the spring, so saving for that instead of buying stuff. I also try to give more "experiences" as gifts - dinner dates, concerts, theatre events, cooking classes, sporting activities. This was a terrific video, Lan! I also love the idea of creating outfits on a monthly basis, please do a video on this. You ROCK, 💯.

[@marikranz9423]

Ooh!! yes please!! a closet video/how to plan outfits sounds awesome!!

[@chelseasullivan169]

I feel like you still nail it with every video. I watch everything you put out there and am always entertained. There are soooo many other youtubers that I have stopped watching lately as I've found they have just got so over the top and unrelatable. Keep doing you because you are fab.

[@jessicadeline9949]

I think it’s awesome that some influencers are wanting to consume less and really influence others to do the same but at the same time it’s nice seeing people talk about products they are passionate about. I think a good mix is nice, it’s easy to tell when you really love a product and it helps the consumer make a more conscious choice. I love how honest and relatable you are!

[@merelmetterademaker2624]

so. relatable. and very cool that you shared your thoughts! I watched the minimalism documentary last year and it changed the way I look at consuming so much!! I gradually over this year got rid of every clothing item that I just kept for keeping sake, and now only have things that I really wear. I didn't buy any clothing for over 6 months and I now make lists now of items that are really missing in my wardrobe. The items I do buy are a well thought out purchase and of good quality. It gave me so much more peace of mind not have to ' scratch that itch' of buying. I did notice I bought more 'other stuff' (cookbooks/makeup/skin and haircare, so I'm trying to this year only buy something if I need to replace it. Not to add to my collection.

[@rachelbecker6933]

This is actually one of my favorite lanmas videos. Thank you for honesty in this crazy world. It doesn't go unnoticed

[@hopekelland2446]

[@beamarie8041]

Most genuine KZbinr ever! My soul felt better after watching this

[@heatherevans6605]

Loved that video and how genuine you were. I think everyone’s getting burnt out from social media turning into constant ads and sales. I worked at a wilderness therapy program in a National Forest in Arizona that really opened my eyes to how little we actually need and how light and free we actually feel living with less. I volunteered and worked for Big Brothers Big Sisters and actually got a message last night from a “little” I had in college about how much the year we were paired up meant to her and that was like 10 years ago. Like one hour of your time per week (or 4 a month) doing basic things can mean so much to a kid! There’s animal shelters, or you could even reach out to a youth or homeless program to help get outfits at thrift stores/learn interview tips for job interviews.

[@katharynchernicky5607]

Meryl is so stinking cute!! I can’t get over the little marking on her nose❤️

[@1Anycoloryoulike1]

I agree that the beauty community feels like a shift is happening where brands responded to the customer’s consumption and now as consumers are taking a step back and saying it’s just too much. I had a moment where I was buying a lot of beauty products and realized that a lot of it I didn’t end up using or just didn’t like and would just go back to my old favorite products or just bring overwhelmed with the amount I have. I have two small draws on my vanity desk full of stuff and I got overwhelmed I can’t imaging what it’s like getting stuff all the time and constantly being surrounded by things and clutter and then go have the guilt to waste on top of it. I’m glad that a lot of creators have spoke about their struggles with consumption because it makes you take a step back and realize that it is becoming just way too much! 🧡

[@whitneyhuskins3677]

I've been with my bf for 4 years and I absolutely LOVE my alone time. When monday rolls around it's a breath of fresh air. I'm a SAHM for the moment and mondays to me are what the end of Friday's are to everyone else. Lol. TOTAL COMPLETE SILENCE from 715 am to 3pm. 😍🙌🏼❤

[@laurenincolor]

Loved the Minimalism documentary. And I have been feeling such a similar way! The more I buy, the less happy or content I feel. I’ve been focusing on creating space in my life for the small important things and have already noticed SUCH A CHANGE! It’s freeing to not let the mental and physical clutter that all these companies are inundating us with get the best of your well being!

[@JaneMichelleTv]

LOVE this vlog Allana!! So good. I love that you don’t just check in to say what you did all day but totally hung out and chatted us up 😊 Also, 100% humidifier obsessed. Lifesaver.

[@jonnieauld]

Honestly I love watching make up tutorials. Doesn’t have to be new things. Old products are good. And occasional new things. Like only things you truly love.

[@teresamccomish6018]

I get so upset like that too sometimes!! The thing I feel makes the most sense to me and helps me not feel overwhelmed is thinking “you can’t change the whole world but you can change your world”. So I am focusing on going low waste, plant based eating and not participating in fast fashion. Buying ethically and sustainably. Thinking how much does each thing I buy affect people, animals and the earth. So I know that my actions are kind to all I am affecting. Living consciously and kindly!

[@reneedbaldwin]

This is probably my favourite video from #lanmas and I totally feel you about the need to declutter. I don’t know what the solution is but I definitely think there is a way to still produce great KZbin content while not living that over the top lifestyle. The reason I continue to watch your videos is because you have a fun sense of humour and your looks are “everyday” friendly. Looking forward to watching you continue to grow and evolve! ♥️♥️

[@tankr3]

YESSSS, Meryl captions are back!! They’re my fav!

[@sarahtatham3304]

Love that you’re having a environmental and social awakening! It’s so painful to watch how wasteful some people can be, a lot of people purchase things without thinking about what went into producing it and where it will go when you’re done with it! I hope there will be a shift towards more ethical shopping and less is more 🙏

[@bryanatan252]

I watched the Minimalism documentary too and I am going to start the new year off doing the project 333 with my wardrobe and go on a "no buy" for makeup and do project pans and use what I have instead of buying more stuff. I appreciate the shift with the KZbin "beauty" community of more influencers not pushing so much stuff! Loving Lanmas 😘

[@kathyreed9747]

I also used to feel a lot of pressure to buy more beauty products because of how wonderful my fave beauty gurus claimed they were. HOWEVER! since people like you and Sam have been talking about being more mindful when purchasing, I feel like the pressure has been taken off. I’ve been trying to declutter my stuff and it’s really helped decrease my stress levels and I more appreciate the things that I love :) Thanks for the video ❤️ loved it and love you!

[@laurenpickle-smith]

I love the blazer. I’ve really been considering purchasing a staple blazer but also I feel like I have too broad of shoulders 😂. But to speak on the minimalist thing. I like to think there’s nothing wrong with enjoying quality items but I’m also a purger. So for every few new items I get I donate some of my clothes to a women’s shelter or different things. The older I’ve gotten (28 now) the more I’m into experiences instead of materialistic things but I still like to find a balance. I think the fact that you’re even having that struggle shoes you’re a good person and that’s why I’m a loyal follower of your channel.

[@emilys3471]

I know you said that people complain when you do decluttering videos but i actually love it. It gives me motivation to do it and it's so satisfying to watch!

I watched minimalism right before I left for England for a year and let me tell you girl: being able to fit everything I'd need for a year in a suitcase and a carry on was one of the most enlightening things that has happened to me. And my year was so incredible because I wasn't focused on all of my stuff but rather on enjoying my time there ♥️

[@melanielambert5818]

Oh wow I watched the same documentary a couple of months ago! I feel like my takeaway was to be more mindful into what I’m putting most of my time and energy into and to put the most value in experiences and relationships instead of materialistic things. Not that I don’t like nice things too, just not letting *things* rule my life. Also I just want to say I love the direction your channel is going. You’re so mindful and honest it’s refreshing. I’m really inspired by how your family isn’t doing presents this year, I want to do the same next year and spend that money towards experiences!

[@glor001]

I really love the conversation in this video, it’s honest, thought provoking, and almost like friends speaking. I think what’s missing is “friendship-like” conversation videos (if that makes sense). I love a good product review and tutorial, etc. it is very refreshing to hear thoughts on what’s going on with people. On another note please do a video on the outfit pairs/style you mentioned. You’re beautiful and so funny! Thank you for doing what you do

Precious paws rescue in simcoe county ON. They don’t have an actual rescue facility but rescue dogs and set them up with volunteer fosters while they take care of any medical issues before putting them up for adoption. I got my dog from them and everyone from the person who interviewed me to the person who came to tour my home and the people who run the website/social media/answer emails were volunteers. With the skills you have with social media, video editing, etc. You could do a lot of good with an organization like this! Also our local hospice. What a god send. When my mom was there it made such a difference from being at the hospital. Volunteers would bring different crock pot foods, baked goods, or even just fill the fridge with necessities. I was really thankful to have home cooked meals instead of cafeteria food in this time. Another volunteer came with his guitar and sang to the patients. People would bring flowers, knit blankets, lots of little things they could do with the talents they had. They put on lots of volunteer-run events that the patients and families could get some joy from in the most terrible time of their lives.

[@stephanieburns502]

Happy quarter life crisis! We'll get through this

[@LouiseVad]

Hey Lan! Loved this style of video. Recently I’ve divided my 74 sqm apartment into sections and then just started Marie Kondo’ing it (yes it’s a verb now😝) the whole thing from start to finish clockwise. (Over several weekends) So; bedroom first (including wardrobe), then living room pt 1, living room pt. 2, kitchen and so on. Asking myself if the item brings me joy/is useful or if it’s just clutter now. It’s been SOOOO satisfying and you WOULD NOT BELIEVE the amount of crap I have taken to the second hand stores and thrown out - even for such a relatively small apartment. I feel so much lighter now! So much more at peace. And I have promised myself that I will not buy crap anymore, only high quality items that I know I will love and use for years. Actually it feels wrong now buying something just for ‘the lols’ or the novelty factor. Who would have known that the answer was LESS STUFF and not piling on more stuff to make us feel better!? Bet the big corporations don’t like this shift in consumer awareness. It’s so necessary though. For sweet mama earth. I’m doing the same when I look at ingredients lists in food and in makeup/skincare. Less is more, we confuse the body less and everything is simpler! For example there is only 1 ingredient in my moisturizer now - rose hip seed oil. Skin has never been better. Not with Kiehl’s, not with Oskia, not with friggin La Mer. It feels so good to be free. PLUS! Don’t get me started on all the money I’m saving. OK, enough from me! LOVING LANMAS, love Meryl, thank you for the awesome content!
