I Bought the First 9 VIRAL Beauty Products the INTERNET RECOMMENDED *save your $$$*

[@nhendphotog]

I love the old-school beauty videos. Product reviews, wear tests, full face of a brand, etc

[@jenniewp169]

Agree! I don't even click on those testing viral products videos anymore...

[@BhappyD]

I LOVE the wavy hair on you, and I’m not just saying that! It compliments you really well, in every way you tried styling it, including it just being completely left down without tying it back. So pretty and gives such summery vibes! And it looks like you got better at it as you went along, so I’m sure next time it will look even better. It really suits you. Gorgeous! 🤩

[@aidanreed6748]

The wavy hair looks amazing! I feel like you’re so used to straight that it looks off to you, but it suits you a ton!

[@OhanaMeansPhamily]

Gives me Blake Lively vibes!

[@CynthiaPrice79]

Back in the 80s, we had crimping irons. We even had crimping irons with interchangeable irons for different effects. That’s all that pink thing is.

[@aquariusblu]

I had a variation of that from conair in the early 2000s too, and sure it worked.. but still ultimately, like so many others at the time, wound up IRONING my hair with a towel/clothing iron, and barely caring to wave or crimp cuz it “wasn’t the fad” 😂🙈 .. good ol braids overnight work easier for waves anyway lmao

[@christywoods9180]

Yep!!I remember mine weol!I USED IT EVERYDAY!THEY ARE BRINGING BACK OUR OLD TRENDS LIKE THEY ARE NEW.LOL😂😂😂

[@lovepinkbuttons9111]

I think your hair looks adorable like that!❤ I love these types of videos, and this is your reminder to buy perfume paper 😊

[@ShuklaAayushi]

Rach here rocks all the hairstyles so casually! Straight, curly, wavy, you name it. Grateful that you make you fine hair(totally empathize here) greasy for us ❤

[@kaykovo1]

I feel like when your doing the waver your pulling on the hair while it's still hot at the top so it's pulling the wave out as you go down the rest of the hair. Also, look at the wave. If you want volume, make the wave that goes highest up at the top. So you may have to hold the iron upside-down. Minky McKnight from cute girls hairstyles has a waver tutorial (it's with her product but can be universal knowledge across wavers) and I stg it helped me so much. She explains how to hold it when using it well.

[@emmaroyle719]

Yes I love the old style beauty content 🙌

[@meglet5535]

for the curling wand, try sectioning vertically instead of horizontally.

[@sherryr1222]

I feel the hair pain. As a wavy girl, straightening takes forever, never looks right and lasts about 3 seconds after I leave the house (BC…aka the wet coast…girl). And there’s always one weird spot somewhere where I wasn’t close enough to my scalp, or was too close! I love watching your channel.

[@sharpm0102]

I feel you on that one! When I straighten my hair it looks awful, so I just let it air dry cause I'm lazy lol!

[@taylorg2320]

As a wavy girl who has literally three different curl patterns and textures in my hair (some ringlet sections, some loose wave sections, and some actual straight sections) a life changing tip for me was getting my hair partially permed at a Korean or Japanese salon. They know how to do perm patterns that are much more loose and smooth than the tight ringlet western perms! And I don't perm my whole head, I just get the tricky sections of my hair to match the sections that I like, plus a few strands at the front to sit exactly how I want them to. It lasts forever and you only need to touch it up when the roots get too long after like half a year! I haven't had to worry about head styling it since, I just make sure to keep it healthy with different conditioning treatments. I highly recommend looking for a local Korean or Japanese hair salon in your city even if you have to drive for a bit to get to it, since it'll be like a twice a year investment!

[@Sendthemout]

I've got wavy hair, also on the wet coast. I've been using "color wow - dream coat" lately when I blow dry my hair straight. I bought the small size thinking there's no way this works. Complete game changer, my hair lasts wayyyyy longer, no weird wave etc.

[@MaryEllington-q6m]

The wavy hair is flattering. Reminds me of Cheryl Ladd in Charlie's Angels.

[@teenaburnley2925]

I was thinking the exact same thing , surprised someone else saw the Cheryl Ladd thing😅

[@AskMiko]

Agree

[@aoyhan5757]

I love this type of video! Can't wait for your next one! I am interested in the double hair waver.❤

[@selfawarepotato]

Omg it’s a crimper. Without interchangeable plates. Gah! I’m old!

[@tonyaweaver483]

That’s exactly what I was thinking my mom had one in the 80s

[@melissaw.6380]

I am so happy I found your channel a few weeks ago! I love how honest you are. And I adore your personality!

[@melissajohnson6501]

I would love a video on just perfumes. I am struggling to find one that I want as my "signature scent"

[@emmastucke8949]

I have a triple barrel waver, but I always find that going in afterwards with a wand and just grabbing random pieces makes it look 100xs better!!

[@skelly2874]

I have the hot tools waver, I've had it quite a few years now and love it, I always get compliments when I wave my hair. You usually just have to play around with it and see what works for you, I use it straight across and also on a diagonal it looks a lot like a loose curl that way. I find it better not to get right up to my root but that's just me. When I'm done I usually scrunch in some gel and use sea salt spray, the style lasts a good 3 to 4 days for me. Love your channels!

[@melissaluvsplease1664]

YES.....to the beauty. I still use the Lancome setting spray that you used a few years ago. Among others, but she is still very nice. ❤💄

[@goodemily]

I also restrict heat on my hair now that I’m older and have had issues with hair loss. First, use the lowest temperature on the iron. I’ve seen lots of professional stylists say this. I go as low as 250. Still works and you can hold it on the hair for longer times. Second, please use heat protectors before using an iron. There are many that are good. I add some before I dry my hair and again when I use a curling iron.

[@BullDurham12321]

Your hair looks so good wavy! I have played with the 3 barrel and I turn it so the “bottom” is up and I think it works better. I also play with where I start the sections. Then for the top layer, I pull my hair straight up and face the barrel backward and go up. Does that make sense? 🙈 It makes it lay better.

[@karenfreedman9180]

I love the beauty-centric videos. You let me know if there’s something I might try. Thanks!

[@alicianicoletti3051]

I have hair similar to yours, and when I use a waver like that I always do it at an angle instead of straight across. That way it’s more of a wave vs a crimp, there’s some variety in the size of the wavy depending on the angle and it somehow ends up having way more movement. Looks sort of like the day after you curled your hair, which is always the best hair day.

[@Meech2611]

Which Fenty Demi Glow color did you use in the video? Crinkle hair looks good!!!

[@Lenzid82]

I have the bed head crimping iron that you can adjust the size of the waviness (it’s purple). I love it! You should try it. The big sexy hair powder can help with lifting your roots. The feel isn’t my favorite but my hair is like yours and I use it from time to time when I want more volume or I go old school with mousse, a blow out with a roll brush and then style.

[@heelrunner]

I have very long hair and because its heavy, the only thing that could put a wave on it is the triple barrel crimper that revlon or conair had. It went so fast too since i covered a lot of surface area.

[@jamiejazz8194]

Where did you get the hoops you're wearing? They're the perfect size for me and I'd love to try them!

[@teenaburnley2925]

Maybe try your beach waves off center, ala Veronica Lake. When you flipped your hair to one side to massage the dry shampoo. I thought wow, how pretty, I get it though. I'm a center part myself.

[@marciwhitman3513]

You could try some more heatless styles to give a little bit of natural wave to your hair. There's all kinds of different things on the market now. It also helps if you don't dampen the hair before you use the heatless curlers because that way you get softer curls and they don't get really tight and they're easier to comb through. I like to use the Conair spiral curls curling rods. I use the larger ones and I curl it on dry hair and leave it in for about 2 hours and I get some nice body and a little bit of curl and it really looks pretty. I also have fine hair that is difficult to curl

[@laineechapman2343]

When using the waver, leave a little, like an inch out and then use a small flatiron for the root! You can get some volume using a small flatiron at the root and bend it so it flows into the waves. I have similar hair to you and that works best for me!

[@samarie04]

I’ve been watching this channel literally since just before Connor was born. I remember the birth story video, the hand surgery and all that drama. It is WILD that he’s starting kindergarten!! Where did the time go?!?!

[@barbiesorensen4376]

Rachel, I think you look so good with the crimp waves! ❤️This is your first time so it’s not going to be perfect but the more practice the better you will get. You were already making progress on the one side. 😉 You should definitely do the wave/crimp style. In regards to Dry Shampoo, the best one I’ve found is one you can make at home. It’s just Cocoa Powder and Corn Starch. You have control to make it as dark as you need to make it less white on your hair. It can be messy but it’s super cheap and best of all, it doesn’t have alcohol or other harsh ingredients. 🙂

[@victoriaconway1]

What bronzer brush are you using? It's so fluffy and large

[@graysonsjourney5420]

I think you need to try to increase the heat on the tool and some texturing layers in your hair could be really cool. I have very thin hair and add some extensions to the front of my hair to add volume and that also helps pull off the look I want. I do the extensions myself.

[@kimhsiang8049]

Always lovely to see your beautiful self. Brad Mondo did a video a while ago that goes through different curling and waving things. One was the wavers and I tell you it made using it soooo much easier. I almost gave up with mine!! xxx

[@erinnrobertson]

I’m been using the Amika dry shampoo for years-one of my favorites for my hair type.

[@stephaniet5448]

Amika makes amazing products. I love their shampoos and conditioners. 👍🏼

[@sionvanlaren3167]

Hi there! Here are some tips for the styling iron: The sections of hair your taking should be thinner. If you want volume at the top make sure you put in the styling iron in a 90-degree angle. And for the aftercare make sure to put some hairspray with the hold of 4 in it. Also, spray at the root of your hair to make the volume at the top stay in place. Good Luck♥

[@LiveLaughLeaveBB]

The waver will work better when your hair is clean so you have more volume and then use a really good texture spray (amika Undone is my fav!) to give it more POW!

[@nicolesmigiel2014]

Love the wavy hair! And I’ve heard if you use that Vaseline stick before you put on perfume it lasts longer

[@DoraSometimes]

Gosh, Rach, I simply love you, your personality and your videos! You always make me happy and I really appreciate it❤

[@iamaraebarbie]

I LOOOOOOVE anything Amika…especially the dry shampoo…and it all smells sooo good

[@kaylahathaway4743]

For the mermade waver, at the top, take smaller sections, closer to the roots, and be sure to keep it super straight as you go. This hairstyle was my favorite in my 20s. Wore it almost every day

[@MakeupCleaningAndCats]

The only heat tool I have is a blow dryer, and have been researching wavers and curlers. I like the mermaid waves and pinup style hair. The waves looked really cute and I like your nail polish

[@CassyStart]

[@jenyoung6919]

Rachel, I need to ask you about your nodpod. Are you still using it? I got one and I love it but I’ve been noticing it flattens out my eyelashes!

[@elinapolicastro5148]

That beach wave looks mad cute on you!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@paigerobinson7013]

With doing any crimp/wave tools to the hair keep the strand of hair loose and not tight so it holds better shape as you do down the hair strand. That seems to work best for me.

[@jessicamontgomery8976]

i found you with sims content and love watching your videos and your personality

[@Truffoire]

My goodness girl you are so aesthetic i love your videos and your looking so pretty

[@karenharper4318]

The Amika (I guess original) dry shampoo is my ALL-TIME fav, I just can't do $25 every couple months.

[@JonEllis-o1q]

I really like the newer Dove dry shampoo

[@karenharper4318]

@@JonEllis-o1q I've never tried it. Currently using a Tigi product (addicted to all the Bed Head line) but Dove would definitely be more budget friendly. Thanks for the advice!

[@leighmolina1221]

Face framing layers and put the top up then do the underneath first to add volume

[@angelwings1979]

The prices on those dry shampoos are crazy! Especially, the K18. $48 for that small of a bottle is ridiculous. I’ll stick to my drugstore products. I’ve been loving the Batiste Overnight Dry Shampoo. I’ve used it before bed and day of, like a traditional dry shampoo. It makes my hair feel and look clean. I don’t have to avoid touching it since it doesn’t leave that weird residue behind. Plus, it’s under $10. I can’t afford those prices to start with but even if I could I wouldn’t. There’s so many great options for so much less.

[@roguec4172]

Fantastic video! Definitely need some more like this. Perfect to enjoy while unwinding in the bath 😊

[@salinaa.49]

When you use the crimper, alternate between using a regular curling iron and crimping sections so it has more texture and dimension

[@jilla8503]

Rachel you must try the new Quai hair and body spray called St. Barts. It’s amazing. It smells like the beach. It’s been going viral everywhere for good reason. Doesn’t last that long on the body but does on the hair. It’s my new summer fragrance ❤

[@anindita8721]

Not me getting distracted by Rachel's nails in the middle of the video🤭

[@juliawiggs746]

Yes @Rachel what are you wearing!?!

[@kbeautyandselfcare]

yeah me too :D Does anybody know her nail colour? It is so pretty, I would buy the nail polish :(

[@angelaconte5683]

Here for the response! I had the same thought as soon as the video started

[@droomprinsesje1234]

Can you try commodity fragrances? I'm tempted 😅

[@rebeccaplatt29]

The wave tool always worked best on clean hair for me. The dry shampoo may have messed with your results a tad(?) Also, don't pull on on the bottom of your hair while it's in the tool or right after you take it out. It needs the slack to make a full wave, and if you pull while it's hot the wave diminishes. Spray immediately with anti-humidity hair spray and sprunch upward. I live in Florida, those are my tips and I always have successful waves for about 2 days. :) Also, section the hair and keep the edge of the wave tool perpendicular to your scalp, starting at the bottom. this creates layered waves, much more volume and waves at the crown.

[@peiwee108]

please could you do perfumes such as juliette has a gun, michael guerlain, commodity (niche types) it would be interesting to see!

[@asass5436]

Have you ever sprayed your dry shampoo in sections then used a silicone scalp shampoo brush to massage it in instead of your fingers? I use living proof (original gray bottle) then this hack and find it massages in better with better results.

[@kelliemasiero6358]

Love this kind of video! so helpful!

[@janikarikkola]

You should try that waver again with clean hair. Because of these dryshampoos your hair doesn't act like it should with that waver 😊 i like the curly look on you! 🤩

[@tonyaboggs5367]

You look amazing with the wavy hair. Don't give up on it because you look better with wavy hair than do you do with straight. Try taking in smaller tiny pieces. I get compliments all the time because I did mine or do mine like you literally did your hair but I just take smaller pieces to make it have more body and to look thicker

[@amandafigueroa6654]

You should try the Layali Rouge Swiss Arabian oil perfume. It smells so good. 😌

[@karmakauffman7445]

Fun video! I think the mermaid waves looked cute on you!

[@statisticallybl]

Have you ever tried one of those at-home lash lift products? I keep seeing them on IG. One girl I follow does this often but I'm not sure which specific product she uses. It looks kind of difficult but it seems like it's worth it for the results.

[@TheFlip_Side]

If you use the Amika Dry Shampoo and then use your blow dryer you will have great results. I watch Abby Yung on YT who talks all about Hair and getting it healthy mentioned using the Amika Dry Shampoo and her blow dryer and lows the results.

[@TheWitchofWhiteTailHollow]

Even though I have normal/dry skin, I’m glad to know about the stick. I don’t like something that doesn’t dry down

With the tool hold it longer than two counts maybe three to four counts, It could be that part of the hair is harder to wave.

Maybe the waver would look better if you started with a root lifter. It seems a little flat. I do love your hair straight or when you curl it. ETA Tonka bean is described as a vanilla scent.

Please consider reviewing the new magnetic lashes. Not the ones that work with a magnetic eyeliner liquid, but rather are two sets of lashes that stick to each other over your real lashes with an applicator. There are several different brands, and I can’t seem to find a video of anyone who isn’t sponsored by the product. I’d love to get your take because I know you are honest, even if you are sponsored by the product.

[@alleyhope9817]

I tried the K18 dry shampoo while I'm on a massive hunt for a replacement for my holy Grail pulp riot Berlin dry shampoo that got discontinued 😭. I hate the K18. It is NOT weightless it's so starchy and gritty and if I brush my hair, my hair is actually breaking off bc it's so dry and stuck together with hold. I compare the formula of the K18 to a worse version of the IGK charcoal dry shampoo. The residue, hold, gritty dirty heavy feeling I can't stand. And the K18 broke me out so bad anywhere my hair touched my skin. So I can only use it on hair wash day. Ireally like the Amika formula but I can't do any Amika products bc of their fragrance. It makes me physically sick and migraines. I have tried SO many dry shampoos in the last few months and I'm sad I can't find anything that fits what I'm looking for. Low fragrance that's not migraine inducing, zero grit or feeling to it. I know if they claim " volume" it's going to have hold and grit. And works on really oily hair. Pulp riot was perfection. Mind you I'm a hairstylist so I can get most things at cost, even then I think K18 brand is vastly overpriced. I have and use other things from K18 and the performance vs price compared to similar products from other brands is just not matching up. So, if anyone knows of a dry shampoo that is pretty much exactly like the pulp riot one and good for extreme fragrance sensitivity PLEASE let me know. I'm currently switching between Klorane oat dry shampoo, Maria Nila one and Biologe one. The biologe so far is almost there except it's way too strong fragrance. Klorane is just too expensive for how often I go thru dry shampoo and I can't get that brand at salon stores.

As a perfume lover... the notes are not special, she just wrote them with flowery language. Eg. MAGIC! Joyful, uplifting, radiant, intoxicating, enchanting. It's a big marketing ploy. Not one of those notes are unique, (maybe Elemi I see the least), nor do I feel the blends are. Personally I think she could have killed it with 2 really well done Pillow Talk (maybe like Naughty/Nice releases like KVD did Saint and Sinner back in the day)..? The bottles don't match her makeup. But that's just me and my two cents 😂
