I LOVE that you embrace your lip shape. I really don't vibe with the rounded top lip uncanny valleyness of the current trends

[@kellya8267]

It just hit me that the Nyx Buttermelt Bronzer packaging looks like those old Nokia flip phones! It's been driving me crazy trying to figure out why it looked so familiar 🤣

[@maryeckel9682]

Omg you're right

[@AC-qo8oq]

Hoa finally!!! That’s what it is. Thank you!!! Now I can rest easy 😂😂

[@jenniferturin2414]

I absolutely loved hearing you say you love your lip shape, and accentuate it rather than change it's shape. Natural beauties such as you, need absolutely zero enhancing to begin with. Add any micro enhancement, and it's just jaw dropping.

[@carolsullivan2599]

Kelly, it’s so good to see a content creator actually use their natural upper lip line.

[@donotresuscitatetrampstamp]

can you not be thin lipped and be happy about it and leave other people alone LMAO

[@hollym7878]

So many other people have already said something similar, but it was so refreshing to hear to talking about embracing your natural lip shape! The pressure to conform to beauty standards seems to be getting MORE extreme, so it's lovely to hear a reminder to celebrate our own unique beauty!

[@maryeckel9682]

I can barely even afford drugstore cosmetics (not even because of rising prices), so I appreciate you doing this so I can make a list for later. And you Cupid's bow is adorable.

[@4booky831]

Always love drugstore videos in the midst of SEPHORA SEPHORA SEPHORA everywhere it seems these days 😂 Also gotta stay your whole look today is stunninggg. Love the gold hoops and the red satin shirt contrast!

As a redhead, I recently discovered this essence mascara at Ulta and it has changed my life. Other “brown” mascaras I’ve tried have always looked like a faded black.

Thank you!

[@aprilrich807]

I’ve always loved how you define the Cupid’s bow, Kelly! Not everyone has a nice one. While my physical blessings are few, I have nice lips with a nice Cupid’s bow. I just wish I had a nice widow’s peak too! I guess it’s the little things, right?

[@pinkbubblesnake]

Same, as someone big into vintage beauty, when I heard about the bow shape being the ideal back then I really liked mine. It's a shame it's not trendy right now but things will change again

[@Msleonoraful]

lol we always want what we don’t have. I have a widows peak and always wished I didn’t

[@beemary488]

Yes for defined cupids bows! I see some influencers going right over their cupid’s bow with lipstick and it looks like they need to have their eyes checked.

[@lena.yazhenskikh]

Kelly I love your style of makeup! It always look so different in a good way from everyone else’s, like with a touch of retro which I loooove! And I love how you draw your cupids bow, I started to embrace my natural lips shape because of you! ❤

[@AlethrialTheElvenEmpress]

Hey Kelly! Really random, but thank you so so so much for recommending the Peach slices azelaic acid serum! My immunoglobin numbers are low, and as a result, I developed rosacea/sensitive skin all of a sudden. But I did some research for ingredients good for rosacea (azelaic acid) and remembered what you said about your sensitive skin. It has helped soooo much! It doesn’t burn and sting anymore! I also started using their cleanser and calming skin moisturizer. Never would have known about them if you hadn’t had shared your thoughts. I am forever grateful to you!! Also you look enchanting here in this video 😊

[@Jawilly1]

I love your pistachio nails and your whole look says "summer's coming!" - healthy and beautiful ❤

[@kellye.5678]

Mixing in halo glow with blush is genius. I love rare beauty blushes but they’re crazy pigmented. That would help sheer it out and make it easier to blend

[@kathrynpaciorek1652]

So glad to see more drugstore videos, great job. I too recently got the NYX Buttermelt Bronzer and after using it a couple of times, I finally figured out what it kept reminding me of - the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Bronzer. I have the lightest shade of NYX so I can't speak of the other colors. But it is such a great bronzer.

[@aliasunknown9654]

I just recently found your KZbin channel and I love it! I've been binge watching all your old videos even like 4-5 years ago. I love your philosophy on product consumption. Love your make-up musings, declutters, the rise and fall series. I've purchased a few products based off your reviews and they have all been fantastic. Keep doing you!!

[@TheRedDivaTv]

I define the cupids bow too! I've loved that Believe foundation for years! I just picked up a new one this week! It literally performs better than most foundations out there! ❤

I've also seen Believe Beauty at pOpshelf stores too! I was thrilled because Dollar General was previously not in my area, and now that I've moved cross country I still don't have one within immediate distance but pOpshelf is just a 10 min walk away.

[@emmaaa1434]

One day you need to try out the Heimish dailism smudge stop mascara. They’ve come out with a brown shade and immediately thought of you and your brown mascara journey. Disclaimer that I’ve only tried black curling not the brown but I am a black mascara girlie. JUDY kept recommending it and it truly is amazing. It’s a true tubing mascara, cheap as it’s asian beauty (£7.83 on yesstyle), no flaking or smudging, can survive a cry and super easy removal. JUDY was so right, it is my holy grail. It also cruelty free, I haven’t looked into it but I do trust JUDY about it.

[@mediocrebankai]

Yes! The essence and milani are my favorites in terms of powder blush. If you can find it the believe beauty cream blush in dollface is the perfect pink but not too pink creme blush with a little dew to it. So pretty.

[@catherinevaz6139]

Essence is one of my favorite drugstore brands, since in my small town we don't have access to Milani, ELF and more. That's why I feel like gatekeeping can be good sometimes. I'm going to get hate, I expect it, but please, hear me out. Some of us really have no other options, can't order online, and when I see all the brands you have in the US... I wish 😭 Don't get me wrong, however, it should definitely be the exception, but many of us can't even find our favorites at the drugstore anymore, since influencers have been talking about it. I'm so tired... If you have other options, or you didn't find this brand by yourself, leave it to us, who love, buy & use Essence beauty for real ( since 2014 ). No offense fr.

[@andresfamily3560]

The Believe beauty crème blush is very easy to blend out! I keep it my purse because it’s perfect for touch ups. I can use my fingers and don’t need a brush.

[@mediocrebankai]

@@catherinevaz6139 Are you telling me not to buy essence products because Im not a die hard fan or something? Your comment is confusing. I’ll buy whatever I want with my own money? Where you live isn’t my fault.

[@pamcamcris]

I love the idea of using the lip stain as lip liner! I'm now facing my mature season of life and love my lip liners but they've been fading and feathering much sooner than I'd like. Picking one up from the store today!

[@sceratt5313]

Obsessed with that brown essence mascara!!! I’ve had it for about a month it’s so good

[@amandawhitlock8607]

Jen Phelps turned me on to the Believe Beauty foundation and I like it more than any of the high-end formulas I own. I'm so glad you tried it even though it can be harder to find. Do they even have Dollar General in NYC? I've never been there.

[@samanthaizundu]

So I felt the same about pistachio by DS & Durga but have since fell in love with it by layering it with other warm and cosy frangrances like vanilla/creamy perfumes. ❤

[@KellyGooch]

Oooh I’ll try that! Do you have a layering recommendation??

[@tina_smt]

@@KellyGoochtry it with the Dedcool Milk that you got from Scentbird 😊

[@samanthaizundu]

I saw you have commodity Milk. That would be lovely because it’s warm but still soft xx

[@Fiercely_Nic]

...and if you want to cut the price of the Unseen Sunscreen even more, try Trader Joe's Daily Facial sunscreen. It has the exact same silky silicone-y texture, and it's $9 😊. Awesome suggestions! I'm so curious about the Nyx Bronzer. My Ulta seems to have it in store now. I didn't want to order because Ulta shipping...ya know.

[@cambowsher0613]

I loveeee the believe foundation!! It’s amazing ! They other amazing products too!

[@Brego100]

Cupid’s bow forever! I find it so distracting when people draw over it-light reflects on the natural cupid curve and it’s just so obvious they drew outside the lines.

[@annapadalko4294]

I couldn’t agree more! and like Kelly says, there’s something so lovely about enhancing your natural features ✨

[@abbyduke7103]

YES! I’m so glad you tried the Believe Beauty foundation!!!

[@arduino172]

Okay, hear me out, for the essence blush that broke (happens to so many compacts from the drugstore), turn it into a loose blush! You can buy an empty loose powder container and crush the blush into a fine powder!

[@maryeckel9682]

Great idea

[@foxxyloxxyxo]

Kelly! You look super 🔥🔥🔥🔥! I love the whole look.. the hoops , the eyes, the lips, and the halter top..

[@nataliek3717]

On our skin the NYX Bronzer is better in shade because on a fair skin tone we need something with a soft pink in the shade!!

[@kerriwright4593]

I struggle with essence mascaras drying out so fast, and crumbling all over my face throughout the day. I loved lash princess in a brand new tube, but it's wear time is awful for me. I've bought new and had it dried out immediately too. I want a good brown but i fear I'll have similar issues.

[@bananeneiscraeme]

i can recommend the burgundy brown one from maybelline...it lasts sooo long on me without crumbling..it like a wet formula...but dries nicely..it isnt as cheap as essence though..it is like 11 bucks i think

[@nickimontie]

The SunBum lip balm with SPF is what I wear in the summer, with LA Girl Lip Oils on top. Summer grapfruit is my favorite! Neither product has any color, but will test with lip tints this spring.

YES. I wanted one of the new Rare blushes, but didn’t want to pay $20 more than Essence. I bought the light rose color and have been loving it. Although the other day in sunlight was the first time I had direct light on my cheeks, and I realized there are some large glitter particles in it. So if you are wanting a pure sheen, the Essence product is not that.

[@mariky]

[@Sabrina-Mepham23]

The Rare Beauty powder blushes look nice but I was definitely not that excited when I saw them first come out because they're the same size as the highlighter (I love the highlighter) but they're only 2.8g so small for £24 and the blushes are £26 😮 No !! The Milani ones are just as good if not better and for the price definitely. I already had Dolce Pink (my favourite) and recently bought Luminoso (ready for Summer) Not buying the Rare ones. Interested in trying the new NYX butter Bronzer (I don't need anymore makeup though) 😅😅

[@GymBunnyQuinn]

Suggestion for the "almost sunburnt" look; benefit blushes California and bronzer Hoola. For context I am english, fair with freckled skin so natural looks are best to showcase my features. I have been using this combo for years. I bought a 5 pack of benefit mini's gift set in the after holiday sales and they're no where near finished, which should tell you how much you need.

[@maryeckel9682]

They're a bit more expensive, though. I do agree that they're forgotten gems.

[@GymBunnyQuinn]

@@maryeckel9682 some things are worth paying for. I’ve spent more money on high street dupes over the years than just buying the real thing. I spent £40 on this blush and bronzer set in 2019 and they’re not even halfway through. I’d argue that’s value for money.

the believe foundation is so, so good. and the bottle finds surprisingly lux - i might sound over the top, but for $5 I was not expecting such an amazing product. unfortunately, the shade range is quite bad. at my dollar general, I saw the deepest shade at like a dark medium - they need to create more foundation colors for people with dark skin.
