Best Beauty Brands and Buys Of 2017 - Nadine Baggott

It's been a great year for beauty, so many new brands, new products and even new categories that it was hard to narrow this down to just a few buys. But here they are my favourite products and brand launches of 2017.
Let me know if you think I have missed out on any and I will make a second part to this - why shouldn't I include your favourites too?
This is mainly skincare but some makeup too - maybe I should include haircare in the next one? Let me know what you think.

Thank you. I love vitamin A range from Superdrug it's very cheap especially hot cloth cleanser is my favourite, I have sensitive n dry skin. I quite all the other brands just becoz of this cleanser x

[@laraphoenix9434]

Hi Nadine, love your reviews. If you ever meet the founder of IT cosmetics again, please ask her why her brand doesn’t even contemplate the existence of women of colour (even slightly olive-toned for that matter) despite it being repeatedly brought to their attention through the years. Thanks x

[@NadineBaggott]

Lara Phoenix I promise I will as it’s such a good and timely question x I mean Fenty killed it this year in the UK with queues around the block

[@laraphoenix9434]

Nadine Baggott Thank you 😘😘😘

[@1ndawkins]

The Ordinary Buffet and Niacinamide, Pixie Glow Tonic, Philosophy Vitamin C powder, Dr. Gross eye serum and Belif Aqua Bomb are my new faves for 2017. I also increased my use of essences/mists, oils, and masks of all types. I learned so much from you, Hirons, Uppies Beads, Gothamista, Trinny, and Stephanie Nicole. Thank you!

[@gailjacobson9736]

FYI, IT is owned by loreal as well. Thanks for your wonderful work! I found you through Caroline Hirons and I'm so happy I Did!!!!happy Christmas and new year ❤️

[@jeanmoore7638]

Nadine will you be covering Aldi's Lacura range

[@abrecknell7933]

Are Hyaluronic acid tablets worth taking? Thanks

[@jillymet]

The Ordinary It's the way forward. Fabulous Nadine thankyou 😚

[@mnicolaidou]

Loved the red mask from The Ordinary indeed. It was a gift from a friend which although seemed frightening at first it was absolutely amazing!!!

[@micapetey]

Drunk Elephant and Sunday Riley have some awesome products, especially DE vitamin C serum, baby skin mask, and maruka oil, and Sunday Riley Good Genes and Luna oil. Favorite mascara for my nonexistent lashes is Lancôme Monsieur Big. Kapow L’OrealLash Paradise is awfully good as well.

[@redglass22]

I absolutely love your channel, have totally been addicted to watching your videos since last night, sooooo much to learn. Thank you.

[@vickytime3855]

Wow, I never thought to use the peel down to my chest. I'm going to have to do that this week!! You were definitely my most favourite find this year Nadine!! xxx

[@michellewatkins1485]

Hi nadine thanks this year for all your brilliant info. Have a fab Christmas and new year 😚

[@patriciabell-berry4689]

Michelle Watkin

[@sallyprocter5498]

Great run down Nadine! I think you touched on everything and I had no idea IT cosmetics launched in the UK. Just another brand to add to the shopping list 😀

[@kmchale1313]

I am so mad for you!!!!! You are making me younger looking every day and you are a joy to watch. Thank you for making these videos.

[@eileennagarkar7240]

Just love your videos and I have learned soo much. I am 67 now and since using a lot of The Ordinary serums my skin is much better and lines beginning to fade. Thank you Nadine xx

[@GinAmber]

Paula's Choice retinol is my favorite :)

[@Ottska]

Thanks for all of the stellar vids this year, Nadine. I've lapped them up and look forward to more! Have a blast over the Xmas break (with plenty of cause to use the caffeine solution) x

[@laurenceapitz1678]

my favorite of 2017 is hands down, Niod's Copper Amino Isolate Serum (5%). the price is outrageous, but it has litterally transformed my skin.

[@cheesecake230]

I love you Nadine! I appreciate your honesty so much. I’m 32 and I’ve got crepey undereyes. Could you recommend an eye serum that would be good for fine lines and preventing wrinkles?

[@olliesaldana8267]

amberk12 - Thanks for asking! I’m a new subscriber from California, USA and have the same concerns! I’m 36 years old and have really bad “mobile” lines! The under eye lines appear after I smile. (I use mainly Lancôme skincare and makeup products but look forward to Nadine’s answer to your question!)

[@joselaynemacdonald852]

Me too

[@donnaortega2054]

Joselayne Macdonald i

[@sparksflewpastme]

Great video! Totally agree with so much of what you said - love the IT cosmetics CC cream & the Vichy mineral 89. Best beauty find for me this year has got to be a tie between Paula's Choice & the ordinary, and your channel of course!

[@melissam490]

I’m loving the It cosmetics CC cream. I’m wanting to get my hands on the stretch concealer and some the Ordinary products.

[@TheLillstrumpa]

First of all thank you Nadine for all your wonderful videos! My best find for 2017 is not a new thing, just new to me. It’s John Masters Organic Scalp Treatment. I have very fine thin hair which is prone to falling out when I am stressed etc and this product has given my hair a new lease on life. It stimulates the scalp, has a fresh herby smell and makes the hair a little “gritty” allowing for a boost of body. Can really recommend it!

[@claudiagambino4077]

For me, it was Mist! I started with a Pixi hydrating mist and now I use a Bulgarian rose mist from Omorovicza

[@suetomfordlaw6673]

My favorites are anything by Jordan Samuel. I have been a skincare junky since I was 16. I am 57 now and nothing, high end or drug store, has made such a positive change as his products. Simple, effective and nourishing skincare. And very reasonably priced.

[@daynaram381]

Sue TomFordLaw So true! Jordan Samuel products are perfection and so reasonably priced!👌🏼

[@juliebarnes7425]

I LOVE IT tightline. Learn to use it and youll LOVE it!!! I'm from the US. And lol I have wrinkly AND puffy eyes. Yesssss! Love the AHA BHA peel. It's my favorite product this year.

[@lillyflynn1483]

Oi Baggott! (My sincerest apologies for the salutation, couldn't resist 12:03). Is the Dermalogica Superfoliant scented? I absolutely detest lavender, it sends me into a rage. Hence I couldn't get on with their mist toner. Thanks so much for making these videos, from one science nerd to another :-)

[@fiammag84]

0.2 retinol in squalane by the ordinary: while you put your emollient on (and what-an-emollient!) you also get a wee bit of retinol. Buffet by the ordinary; it is an astonishing cocktail of actives.

[@jessicabrissette4531]

Holy Flame I love the squalane with retinol! It's so nice!

[@lindaalden2867]

i got the 0.2 retinol in squalane, but when i used it on my chest [for sundamage], it made my chest very sore and ichy i had to stop useing it,

[@susanjo6071]

Yay...Glossier is cruelty free! I really want to try the undereye concealer. So many great sounding products are not CF and I've made a decision to not support them. It's ONLY makeup and skin care and there are many alternatives. Thank you for your informative and fun videos.

[@karenthomas4575]

Like you, I do not believe we should be carrying out tests on animals for our vanity. I only use cruelty free products. I'm still waiting on response from Nadine on her views on this matter!

[@marleneszyszka2515]

Hi Nadine, I love the Dr. Sebagh Serum Repair but when I ran out last time I bought The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% which I also like. Being truthful, as a consumer I didn't notice any difference between them, so apart from the huge price difference, is one better for 50+ skin then the other....I'm about to run out and don't mind buying the Dr Sebagh again if i know it will benefit my skin. Ever thought of having a 40+ Day when you and other beauty industry professionals give talks and people get advice on skin care regimes, hair and make up etc.? I use lots of the products you talk about but with ranges by companies like The Ordinary and Paula's Choice although the customer service people are great at giving online advice, it's not the same as having someone look at your skin and recommend products appropriate for your skin. Thanks for the brilliant Vlogs......love them!

[@fabulous50s]

Thanks for a great video Nadine! IT super hero is my all time favourite mascara too!

[@renadempsey842]

A few 2018 to watch...La Mer cushion, La Mer skin exfoliate, La Mer adding new shades to foundation (yes!!!) Bobbi Brown glow cushion and new glow creams (Japan only I think 🤔) Guerlain illum powder 😍

[@jgoldfarb3]

I adore you😍you are so funny your videos are my fav. I live in Florida USA🇺🇸🌸🌎

[@najmehalyasin4194]

Hi Nadine, Najmeh here in Australia. I am 35 years old and have started using the Loreal age perfect foundation after your initial video on it. It is the best foundation I have ever used. Sadly, we do not get the full range in Australia. So no blush! :)

[@FiftyPlusBeauty]

Nadine, Another awesome video! Love all your honest reporting. I’m going to try that L’Oreal Age Perfect foundation. It sounds wonderful!! I also love the It Cosmetics Mascara. I hope you have a wonderful Holiday!! 🎁🎁🎁🌲🌲🌲🎁🎁🎁

[@BM-nq2qx]

Fab selection! To a new year of awesome TBKIA videos!

[@user-wb3bj8yk8v]

Hi Nadine,so grateful for the information you share with us,I've been suffering from acne (mild) for many years now,and I've been to many dermatologists,nothing really helped permenantly. My hormonal acne is bad,and my scars won't fade i have very fair skin and i've started using SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic,but wondering if you could spare your time and suggest me other products i could use?

[@lisarussell2170]

Thanks to you my bathroom is now stocked with Niod, The Ordinary & Indeed Labs (love Q10 Booster Serum). Looking forward to La Roche Posays Hyalu B5 Serum in 2018. You are costing me a small fortune but my skin is looking great - Many thanks I just love your videos. Merry Christmas 🙂

[@ericaalvarez905]

The best product I have used, by far, is Rodan and Fields' Lash Boost! Made my lashes uber long and full

[@karinvandongen]

LOV the It cosmetics cc BUT HATE THE PACKAGING! The silver peels off after a while🙃

[@gailjacobson9736]

karinvandongen agree, it gets all over my hands. And it doesn't work for my super dry, aging skin. I used it in my 40's, butt when I hit 50 I had to stop using it

[@lynwilhelm2997]

karinvandongen me too... and my last few tubes of CC cream,the pump stops working when there is still quite a bit of product left !! 😤😤

[@debbiehopkins2315]

Same here. I love It CC cream enough to take the time to put in an airless pump and use it that way.

[@lynwilhelm2997]

Oh Wow !! Debbie Hopkins. That's an awesome idea. Where do you get the airless pumps from ??

[@princesscharlott1983]

Does anyone here have any the ordinary suggestions for eye lines/crows feet? I love their products so any suggestions would be great x

[@brazaq1]

Hi Nadine, it would be great if you could please highlight the fact that the IT Cosmetics BB cream, which is not cheap, has irritating fragrance in it and therefore not suitable for acne-prone skin. It saves people money and is a more accurate reflection; please take it as constructive advice rather than anything negative. Ditto ordinary - would be great to find out the PH level of the Peel in order to determine its effectiveness. I LOVE the Super Hero mascara though - bought it on your recommendation and couldn't agree more!

[@lipstickkonniption7527]

brazaq1 - hi. Yes, agree. The IT cc cream makes my face swell. Plus it is very thick & occlusive. Not for me! 💋

[@melindar3872]

The Ordinary Peel PH is 3.5-3.7 (as noted on the site) theordinary.com/product/rdn-aha-30pct-bha-2pct-peeling-solution-30ml?redir=1

[@MissMijaut]

I would disagree on one point you made , I think the western market boomed in mask production due to the popularity of Korean sheet masks . All of a sudden everyone was stocking them , everyone started making them ,etc. My favorite products of 2017 were : dermaroller , Mad Hippie range (only discovered them this year ) , Votary superseed oil (better deal than the I-have-to-get-a-bank-loan-to-buy-you Vintner's Daughter serum oil .... ) , Lyonsleaf cleansing balm and The Rose Tree carrot and mango cleansing balm . Haven't tried Glossier this year ,maybe will have a go at them next year (via a forwarding service since they don't ship to Croatia .... ) .

[@Rebecca-pr3fn]

Korean's are very much into skin care, I have never seen anything like it. Ive heard they have skin care shops all over the place, Id love to visit there one day.

[@jenn.7033]

Mia, I agree with you regarding the mask boom. Thank you for the tip about the Votary oil. I love Vintner's Daughter oil but I can't afford to use it year around.

[@MissMijaut]

The level of production is insane ! I watched a documentary about the beauty industry in Asia (mostly talked about Korea) and I was left speechless . I have been using Korean skincare for around 3 years now ,and they do have some really good stuff . Also, just to add , if you want really good quality sheet masks & affordable too check out Taiwanese sheet masks , they are the BEST ones out there and a really good deal too . I buy mine off eBay and am super content so far .

[@MissMijaut]

@Jen N. You are more than welcome . Glad to help out xxx

[@Rebecca-pr3fn]

Thank you we have quite a few Korean stores in Toronto, but I will check out your masks thank you...

[@hayleysmith5077]

Thanks Nadine, thanks for sharing, Such a classy lady 💛

[@happytrails699]

I am going to have to try that concealer.

[@lizawild8235]

I love the ordinary's serum foundation. Looks just as good if not better than MAC face and body

[@parismorning]

I’ve been waiting for this! Excited!

[@hippo947]

My fave product of 2017 is Hydration Vaccine fron NIOD. This stuff is amazing! You should definitely try it!

[@miraabuaita]

I soooo enjoyed this video :) My top foundation that i made like 10 of my friends buy and I repurchased for the 8th time was Maybellin Cushion Foundation!! Simply perfect (the only downside is that it finishes fast... I wish they had refill bottles). I do want to check out the IT mascara after always going back to "Le Volume de Chanel" for years :) no visits to Australia?

[@maryfarsi2840]

Excellent video as usual. Thank you so much.

[@mdsilva6321]

A bit off topic but I really like the new music in this video, Nadine!

[@deHaas2011]

I thought I was weird. I keep the aha/bha from the ordinary on for 25-30 minutes....

[@NadineBaggott]

deHaas2011 I think you can slowly build up too x especially if you don’t have sensitive skin x

[@Claire-qp8ye]

I'm really confused. There seems to be so many serums and moisturisers I don't know which way to turn. In using a vit c serum under my mosturiser (decleor) and then a spf30 and sometimes a primer. For evening I've been using liquid gold 3 times a week before I put on night cream but I think This is too harsh for me. Can you please suggest something that exfoliates gently and if I should be using another day serum. Thanks in advance. Ps I love your videos.

[@angeladavies898]

My favourites of the year which were new (to me!) were Glossier, in particular Boybrow and Cloud paint and Sukin skincare range which is fab, available at Boots and really reasonably priced. Am looking out for the Loreal age perfect makeup, haven't seen it in a store near me yet.

[@terrance7220]

I think my favorite skincare product of 2017 would be Estee Lauder revitalizing supreme cream, totally unnecessary but it's the only moisturizer whose texture I enjoy putting on my face. Other favorites are probably Differin gel, DCL C30, Neostrata Hydroquinone+PHA 10, Lauder micro essence, Kate Somerville retinol firming eye cream and Murad city skin age defense SPF.

[@lorrainecampbell374]

How about the Tatcha brand. I f you find a dupe, I'll hunt you down to personally thank you. They are Amazing. Love you Nadine. Happy Xmas and have a fabulous New Year

[@yrocha88]

Hi Nadine, have you heard of Cosmetic Skin Solution? They have all of the latest “hyped” products (HA, vit-C, peptides, etc) and some online articles and videos have said their vitamin C serum is a dupe for the Skinceuticals vitamin C with identical ingredients and an *almost* identical formulation. What do you think about their products?

[@Stardust96x]

Nadine, I think you've mentioned before that you don't use essential oils, etc. The It cosmetics cc contains orange peel oil, and other essentials oils. what is your thought on this?

[@melaniestewart5843]

Robert I took Nadine to mean she doesn't use an oil specifically. not that they weren't included in some of the products she uses.

[@elizabethannferrario7113]

Hi Nadine I have just bought Charlotte Tilbury mask and you can use it upto three times looking forward to its arrival and I will report back on a mature skin ! Thank you nadine ! When I can afford it I will buy an Estée Lauder foil mask but the affects only last for a short time but it’s loverly for a spa night ! I recommend it throughly! Regards to everyone Liz x

[@katesibson3812]

Great video, I've learned so much from you this year. My favourite new product has to be Armani Power Fabric. When you and Sali Hughes raved about it, I invested and it was so worth it!

[@dhoopsunheri]

i am new here and your channel is amazing. I have seen you talk a lot about niacinemide and i have been using this eye cream by the brand STRIVECTIN that i think has niacinemide in it. The eye cream has helped me so much. i was wondering if you could talk about this brand and there are any face products that might be niacinemide based that you would recommend. got to know about you from lily pebbles and i am so glad she talked about your channel.

[@lindapassos]

Love my Stretch Concealer, best discover I did in the last few months =D Didn't try "YGS" yet nor that L'Oreal foundation but after what you said dfo tomorrow have a Boots haul. Love ITCosmetics CC cream and using medium too. Using the hyaluronic acid from The Ordinary also the Caffeine solution (thanks fot telling me why was I peeling in the outside corners of my eyes, thought it was cause of the retinol) using also the AHA+BHA but never did more than 10min. Thought my "Christmas Gifts" were done but now I see they weren't. xx

[@elizabethannferrario7113]

Gosh nadine the glossier concealer is £48 !

[@joselaynemacdonald852]

Can you do videos in your morning cream routine and evening also how you pamper your skin.... there are so many products I get lost on when to wear.

[@tevysmith8962]

Any suggestions , I have oily skin and I’m looking for a moisturiser that won’t clog my pores

[@Kapow1995]

Can you recommend a good vegan lipbalm and an eye moisturiser for a person in their 20’s??

[@barbrajacobs7850]

[@anetabondyra2068]

[@debblake1286]

I love the way highlighters look on the skin. I have heard however that if you are over 35 to forget anything with shine including shimmer eyeshadow. What do you think? I have been looking at the Bobby Brown glimmer brick. Thanks

[@ocandro]

Deb Blake Well it's been a while since you've commented, but in case you still want to know: 1. shimmery and glittery eyeshadow can accentuate wrinkles, hence this very old rule. But the formulas have changed so much for the good that you can absolutely wear it if you want to, most of the top make up artists use (especially finely milled) shimmery eyeshadow on 40+ women with gorgeous effect. you can always put shiny stuff on the mobile lid (or just in the middle of it, it creates beautiful dimension and bigger, rounder eyelid) and always in the inner corner and you can put mattes in/above the crease for better contours if your eyes are hooded/deep set by age or by nature. Rules are meant to be broken though . 2. there are h ighlighters with pearly or metallic shine and ones with wet/slightly oily skin effect. you can use the latter to great effect anywhere you want and can and with the metallic ones you might want to avoid wrinkly areas (crow's feet etc) and large pores or scars.

[@MarieClaireMonterey]

I will be starting with tretinoin soon once a week. Will I better stop with my 10% AHA which I use twice a week? or can I use it?

[@JenDoe1]

MarieClaire Monterey You should stop the AHA when you begin the Retin-A.

[@patriciadonovan7839]

[@renataboyle3489]

Have you heard about the IT cosmetics 'anti-ageing Armour' (super smart skin perfecting beauty fluid)? Looks fantastic but not available in the UK apparently, tried to order it from 'Sephora' - put it in shopping basket and a message came up saying it was a 'restricted' item! Have written three times to IT cosmetics in the UK, no response, tried to ring them - couldn't get through - why on earth would a cosmetic be restricted?? Slightly annoyed that I can't get an answer because it looks like a lighter version of the CC cream and works with your natural skin colour but provides coverage where needed. Would love to hear if you have heard of it and if so, is it available anywhere in the UK.

[@Sonicman415]

Hairline to nipples.. best quote yet.. brilliant

[@JenDoe1]

Giulietta Ciambotti Caroline Hirons used to say (and still will) “take it to the tits” especially when talking about Retinol/Retin-A. I think Nadine might’ve made her own version of that brilliant statement!

[@TC-gc5rt]

Great video, thank you! I may have to give the Clinique Moisture Boost a try!! My favorites of the year are: Clinique Take The Day Off Balm, DHC Cleansing Oil, Vanicream Gentle Face Wash, Neutrogena Ultra Gentle Wash, DHC Q10 Toner, Paula’s Choice Skin Recovery Toner, The Ordinary Buffet Serum, Timeless Q10 Serum, Refissa (trentinoin), The Ordinary MAP, The Ordinary Azelaic Acid, Eurcerin Q10 Cream, Cerave PM, Rosehip Seed Oil (various venders), Niod NEC, Paula’s Choice Clinical Retinol (use on neck and chest), NIOD VC (haven’t used this one long), The Ordinary Marula Oil, Timeless Squalene (50% sales for refillable container), SkinCeuticals Physical Fusion UV Defense SPF 50, Elta MD Physical Sunscreen (Body), Australian Gold Botanical Face SPF 50 (don’t get SPF 30 in this brand, not the same and it’s highly fragranced).

[@gerirosman4983]

Hi Nadine. Love this video. Don't think you've mentioned this brand but I just love it -- the products as well as the founder. Jordan Samuel Skin, created by Jordan Pacitti, here in the U.S. I use almost everything in the range. Best part is the products work and are affordable. Hope you'll check it out and consider giving Jordan some of your "Beauty Know It All" love! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

[@alexr.7747]

My fav product is the mineral sunscreen from clinique spf 30. (not the 50 one because in this one the ingredients gets strange...) and timeless Q10 and b5 Serum. Love your videos and I wish you calm and great holidays! Greetings from Austria, Alex

[@MsSharon2011]

This was the year i tried LaMer skincare. I really rate the tonic it lasts forever and really gives your skin that hit of moisture . Rodial has been another shocker for me. The 8-1 hydrator is amazing . And the Stemcell range my sensitive skin loves it. For eyes Algenist was another win for under eye. Lips would be ByTerry Baume de rose . Mask I’m torn between the Sisley black rose and the Zelens instant renewel. Both amazing !. Love the dermalogica superfoliant !. But Rodial 5% scrub rocked my socks too. :)

[@gemmashiell8423]

Hi Nadine, I’m a newbie - slowly trying to work my way through your channel and learn the basics! I have so far bought a HA and Retinoic acid from The Ordinary. Hearing you in this vid say to be careful with acids if using RA... does that mean I shouldn’t be using RA all the time? Would like to try out AHA /BHA so would appreciate any advice on how to cycle these products if necessary? (Love the vids, and have my mum watching now too!) xx

[@veronikajuric2521]

Hi.. first of all thank you for having a youtube chanell 🤗👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼 Q: Im using the ordinary retinol 2%, I usually go with glycolic pixi and then clarins iris hydra toner and after tht retinol. I was wondering woul it be ok to put lactic acid 5% or 10% and thn retinol or would my skin just scream 😱 I do use acids for a few years now so I am used to it.. if you find the time thank you in advance for the feedback 😊🙋🏻

[@carolkhoo4129]

You're such an interesting and informative watch I've become a new subscriber. Would love to hear your take on some hair and body care products. So far, I've been loving squalene and Estee Lauder's Advanced Night Repair.

[@xxcnd83xx]

That Clinique serum has definitely been one of my favourite products of the year. I liked the Ordinary hyalaronic acid as well, but I prefer the texture of the Clinique one. Also, good old Advanced Night Repair, that I repurchase every wear. As for brands, my most used have been Ren, Avène and Clinique. I'm 34 and I've found the older I get the more sensitive my skin becomes, so I appreciate unscented products. I can't wait for Glossier to deliver in France so I can finally try that concealer.

[@lisalou1384]

Thanks so much for all your advice! I have followed you for ages & really enjoy your videos! I am currently using Dermalogica for a lot of my skin care products, however, use the Paula's choice retinol and have been using the Tetra Medik8 vitamin C which is amazing, I love it! It has helped give me clear, glowing skin for the holiday season! Have a super Christmas! x

[@kitty6720]

Regarding mascaras: I couldn't agree with you more, Nadine! I want one mascara to have it all: length, volume, thickness. I don't want to have several different mascaras for different purposes, that's costly and time-consuming.

[@deanahendrickson5342]

If the ordinary eye serum with caffeine is drying do u put something Emoliant over it for concealer to not be drying and lines show?

[@NadineBaggott]

Yes absolutely , layer over a light milky looking serum like Indeed Hydration Booster XX

[@georgiagreer8346]

Hey would really appreciate some help! I have just turned 23 and really want to get into skincare and looking after my skin more but I don’t really know where to start! I use liz Earle products cleanse and polish mainly but I’ve not noticed much of a difference... are there any products/brands you would recommend? I have combination oily skin and very large pours! Ps love your videos xx

[@modavisa123]

Thank you, Nadine, for this great video!! I too love a good mascara, I received a sample of Chanel Le Volume De Chanel. Oh my goodness , it is hands down the best mascara that I've ever used! I hope you have a very Merry Christmas!!

[@hibi6224]

I'm in my 20s and youtubers around my age post videos and don't explain much about how the ingredients work. But you are so experienced and you teach me so much! Thank you for always posting these videos

[@reneerunyan3583]

Can you recommend a peptide light cream. I see all these moisturizers and hunt for the peptides. I'm seeing massive results from indeed Vitamin C and building to their Retinol Reface. Bought,but haven't tried,after seeing such results from the Vitamin C the indeed Collagen and Q10 and see they have a peptide..tide cream so where does that go? I also looked you up on your pentapeptide Olay video.. I can't help it I like to be informed. I'm not tingling within the Vitamin C 24% but seeing great clairity and even skin tone but tantalizing over the new DCL 30 night scape I use vitamin c most nights and build up to the Retinol Reface.. the Indeed line is so cheap I gotta try it geesh. Hope your enjoying a wonderful stress free holiday!. Renee

Can i ask you Nadine if you have any concerns over animal testing in L'oreal products you love so much?. The company claim they no longer do this on animals but they still sell in China, who require you DO test on our furry wee creatures. I certainly think you should be looking into that and NOT whether they will bring out a transclucent powder!

You know, I already walk around, do housework, watch TV, etc., while wearing a sheet mask. You just buy one of those $3 silicone cover masks off of Amazon that fit over the top of your sheet mask and your mask won't move and as a bonus, they stay moist a looooooong time.

My newest skin care obsession is organic , cold pressed Rose Hip Oil. Amazing change in my skin! It's natures 'natural retinoid'. Then I use an 8% alpha hydroxy cream and my skin looks glowing and new.
