OMGGGG YOUR MAKEUP IN THE BEGENNING OF THE VIDEO IS SOOOOO BEAUTIFUL

[@frederiegar]

hi lydia, i think with balm cleansers you want to use them on dry skin first to dissolve all the oil/makeup/dirt of the day, and then use water to emulsify and wash off! But if wet face works for you - keep doing it. love your vids xxxx

[@kayceelee.7180]

I literally just said to myself "I wonder when is Lydia going to upload a new video" and you just did and now my life is complete. Thank you Lydia 😊♥️

[@elsahosk6396]

Kaycee Lee Strydom it happened just the same to me not joking

[@kayceelee.7180]

Elsa Hosk 😂 Great minds think a like x

40 min video from Lydia! I need some tea to watch this 😇

[@serenitynow9980]

2 bits of advice. 1. MINT works great to keep away spiders. Candles, mint oil spray whatever minty scents you like. Put it everywhere in your home concentrating on the windows and door areas. 2. Watch youtube videos while cooking. I put my laptop on the kitchen counter and watch people cook the chicken (or whatever) and follow them exactly. Its like hands on cooking at home. Yes I have to pause the video and go back sometimes when they go too fast but it works great for me and I have been cooking confidently and enjoy it now after years of doing this. ~ Lots of Love from California!

[@TheAllysonB]

I gotta try out some of the products from your night time routine! My tip for taking off false eyelashes: dip a Q-tip in some eye makeup remover, then gently run the Q-tip back and forth along your lash-line to dissolve the lash glue. Then your lashes will come off easily! :)

[@jaspreetdhanda97]

These long vlogs are actually the perfect thing to make me want to wake up in the morning

[@patriciateague8677]

I just love how you are so surprised at how popular you and your channel are. There are so many reasons why I follow you but most of all it is because of how truly genuine you are and that you are willing to share your life with us. Looking forward to your next video.

[@pepiccpepicc7071]

Your hair up is soo pretty 😍😍😍 love long videos of you ...❤

[@Calooee]

i think it ages her!

[@peaceatlast2684]

Lydia it was great to hear that you have come a long way with the flying, and it proves that the more we do things that we are uncomfortable with it will take the fear level way down, You are a great girl, you do so much in your week. Your parents must be so proud of you.x Have a lovely week.x

[@majabergstrom7996]

Best vlog to watch in bed before going to sleep happy! Thanks Lydia❤️ Love you

[@madeleinewhite9403]

Moisturizer will definitely dilute retinols/retinoids (vitamin A) if used immediately after applying them. However, you still want to use moisturizer. Not applying moisturizer will definitely hurt you in the long term. If your skin is not properly lubricated, wrinkles will start form a lot quicker. What dermatologists recommend that you do when it comes to Vitamin A (and antioxidants in general) is wait about thirty minutes before you apply any other serums and moisturizers on top. Hopefully this was somewhat helpful. I wish you luck in your future skincare endeavors.

[@rachell3998]

I love that By Terry is a cruelty free brand. Nice job working with a truly ethical company, Lydia!

[@nurdanjotham896]

Rachel L I love her and totally agree with you but I find that's wrong praise considering that she also works with L'Oréal.....

[@helenann2935]

Lydia, it is so refreshing to see how grateful you are to all of your supporters. Hope the jump suit is OK and hope you managed to salvage the rip xx

[@lisalatelycom]

I know you don't do many beauty videos as of late, but I'd love to see a tutorial of your look from the meet up! It is SO beautiful! And glowy

[@SusanSaysSomething]

Fool proof way to cook meat: a meat thermometer. Download a meat chart, put it up om your fridge, and when cooking, meat once it comes to the correct temp you know it's done (and safe). No more guessing.

[@donna25871]

I am loving the Omorovicza balm cleanser - best product I’ve ever used for removing makeup as a first cleanse.

[@Jmg52787]

Lydia, I would love if you could show your tanning routine! How you prep your skin, application, products and upkeep?

[@katetinney5270]

Lydia, I used to think that buying face creams and products were a waste of money BUT after seeing your face (which was already gorgeous😊) I can totally see a transformation. You look so refreshed and naturally glowing and just AMAZING

[@Julia69016]

Hi, Lydia! The stronger version of the Ordinary retinoic acid is the Retinol 1%. Retinol is retinoic acid in an alcohol base, which is stronger than the retinoid that you're using, even though the percentage is higher. The Retinoid 2% is recommended for beginners on retinoic acid, actually.

[@shannonhooper7945]

Loved your eyeshadow! I've literally never given myself food poisoning, and I started cooking when I was 8 years old. I almost set the house on fire a few times, but I never made myself sick. As long as your meat is fresh and you wash your hands after handling it raw, you should be fine. Good luck! The salad looked yummy...

[@FALLON_1111]

When making your chicken or any meats if your nervous just pick up a meat thermometer they are super handy and they tell you on the back of the thermometer what the proper temp is that it must be for the meat to be properly cooked and voila you don't ever have to worry...hope that this helps! ps...love the long videos!!! Congrats I hope your as proud as yourself as we are of you, your accomplishments are truly that...and those that you should truly be so very proud of! xx all the way from Canada!

[@JordanLaurelle]

I love your videos Lydia! I don't tell you enough! And I love that you reply to messages on Instagram. You don't let your fame get to your head! One of the many things I love about you. Thanks for being an inspiration for us all

[@heltc9594]

Meat cooking makes me a bit nervous too so I use latex gloves to prepare it while it is raw, then I clean immediately the counter and put the dishes in the dishwasher. I have a special cutting surface I use for raw chicken and I don't use it for vegetables. Also, I cook meat in smaller pieces/ slices, so I can always be sure it is completely cooked. I hope I helped a little! Lots of love

[@juliemaggio1292]

Lydia!! I am SO happy you said that you are scared of cooking the meat! I am TERRIFIED of making myself or anyone else sick, or contaminating something else I'm using... etc. Which is why I don't even eat a lot of meat unless it's insanely cooked. Everything super well done. I'm emetophobic (scared of vomiting). My anxiety is better with therapy and medications, but it made me feel so happy that you were able to disclose this! Also, I am that crying person on the plane :( maybe someday I will get to the champagne stage!

[@kaylinmelia]

I also struggle with a fear of becoming ill. One thing to do for small things, like chicken bits for a salad, is to buy the kinds of frozen chicken which has already been partially or fully pre-cooked. All you do is put it in the oven, and then you have no fear of contracting food poisoning. It's so easy, and some brands actually taste great! Also, using a crock pot is a great solution; it is EASY but takes time. You put chicken in the pot at the beginning of the day and it slow-cooks until evening. That way, not only is it tender and marinating in its own juices, but you also know it's very well-cooked. Some of the more powerful crock pots are also faster, if you're impatient! Last tip: if you're willing to learn to cook tofu (it can be good, believe it or not), it's a great protein substitute that's so fast to make, and you can't undercook it. Hope it helps! -- From a fellow emetophobic. #It'sembarrasingbuttrue

[@carisilver5557]

Watching your videos is just so relaxing. Love how you make us all feel we're there with you! 😁 xx

[@maryalice915]

Lydia, you looked so stunning with your hair pulled back in the ponytail! I love you in lashes too, gorgeous! Thanks for opening up about your fear of being sick. I also suffer from the same fear so I totally understand. I get a lot of anxiety when the stomach flu starts to spread around as well as worrying about food poisoning. Ugh! Anyway, I also wanted to tell you that I love your videos so much! Because of your vlogs, and all of the beautiful locations you shoot at in London, I can't wait to take a trip there one day!

[@marinannaxo-7121]

Good job with the dinner Lydia! So proud of you for overcoming your nervousness and trying something new!

[@michellescarratt]

Hi Lydia, Love your videos! here is a tip for you, don't rub the retinol in your hands, apply the drops directly to your face, then massage in with you finger tips. Otherwise you are loosing a lot of the potent product on the palms of your hand. x

[@traceylynn7100]

Don't be afraid to cook meats. You just need a digital food thermometer. It's error proof, just poke until you hit the safe temperature. I believe in you Lydia!!!

[@maddiethomas7677]

Hey Lydia! Im a qualified skin specialist and the reason you're not seeing better results with your retinol is because you have another serum/aha (liquid gold) underneath. If you put on the retinol on first and then moisturise it will work a whole lot more!!! yay hope this helps :)

[@Mstiramisu22]

Lumie is such a lovely addition to your blogs, she is so gorgeous

[@pixelinch2729]

Great video Lydia. Yes to longer vlogs. Thanks for a great By Terry Masterclass and rt and like of the fur baby lol. x Heather

[@brownsugarbombshell5424]

ahhh sunday evening chills watching this gorgeous beauty...love ya doll xx

[@mann7298]

oh its so nice to see how well dressed and put together everyone at your meetup was! gives me the motivation to put effort into dressing up even on everyday occasion. i mean i love your style for example and the image of very clean an dput together look, but always find myself reaching for the comfortable and maybe not so flattering pieces. maybe when i get to the point of being happy with my body itll start to show in my clothing as well lol

[@779lelo]

Don't wait, do it now! I once hoped that things would fall into place once I lost excess weight. Well, I lost the weight (over three years!) and I realized the mind will just invent new things to pick on. Beauty is certainly not skin deep. Looking put together/polished is very much a mindset and good habits. So, start training your mind to those good habits right away, because it takes time to find what really works for you and for your lifestyle! Lydia is a lovely role model and source of inspiration😊💗🌹

[@mann7298]

779lelo thanks babes x

[@TheImperfectOneLDN]

Gurrrrrl! I understand! I am scared of so many things and this year I've been overcoming so many fears too. It shows strength. So you are not alone!!!xxxx

[@mishaalmalik3857]

Your skin is extraordinarily beautiful at the moment!

[@VivianaTrujillo91]

My car is getting serviced and I purposely saved his video to watch whilst I was waiting and time flew by! Such a fun vlog x

[@HalieNoelM]

get a big pot and fill it with chicken broth or water and just boil your chicken. they'll stay moist (in case you over cook in fear of undercooked chicken- been there when I started cooking!) and it will be extremely flavorful. It is the easiest way to shred chicken over a salad. :) (or you can do a foil tent, completely sealed, around them and throw them in the oven with butter and herbs- they'll always stay moist that way as well!)

[@sarinasherman1717]

Lydia! Can you do an updated wet to dry hair video? Or a ponytail tutorial! Your hair is so gorgeous😍

[@LusineG]

I get so excited when a new video is posted!!! Have you tried the Eve Lom balm? It is amazing - removes all the make up in a second!

[@Elisanamdar]

I loved this video! All of your videos are so charming and it was so much fun to watch a "day in the life" style video! And I reaaaaalllyyy loved the make up look you did in your By Terry meet up! Could you please do a step by step tutorial, I want copy the entire thing.

[@elcaminodelzen]

Hi Lydia, I am a dietician and my advice is: don't be afraid to poison yourself with meat or fish, you just have to buy fresh stuff and cook it completely, till the core of the steak or the fish. You can also freeze it for 48 h before you cook if. You are beautiful, but I have seen you stressed in this vlog. Try to get relaxed 😌 Hugs from Spain

[@sophie-annc376]

I use the Zelens 3T complex after the ordinary retinol and it is an absolute game changer!! x

[@emilye1962]

Your so confident speaking in front of all them people Lydia! I could never do that! Well done x

[@RosangelaR]

You could spray your bathroom with an essential oil mix or vinegar solution to keep the spiders away, especially like in the dark nooks and crannies!

[@chelseabilger4701]

Lydia. Girl. You look gorgeous in that first clip!! Your make up and hair look flawless🙌🏻

[@cherri1187]

I just want you to know how much I find you inspiring. I absolutely love your humbling personality and live for your long videos. Keep being yourself, gal. ❤️

[@thetourstvibe]

Omg that guy at 3:20 looked sooooooo happy to see you haha! Living for these vlogs, literally grab a cuppa every time xxxx

[@rezvanugalde7332]

Lydia!!!! Get a meat thermometer!! My family has been in the big restaurant business all my life, so my father was crazy .. is strict with cooking the right way, temperature tells you when whatever meat fish or chicken is ready each has a certain temperature also when cooking watch out for "cross contamination ". For example you handle raw meat, fish, specially chicken and you don't wash your hands straight away and you touch other food with hands...=cross contamination. It's not as hard as it sounds you can google or you tuve how to avoid food poisoning or cross contamination. The thermometer are inexpensive at a restaurant each person that works on any food carries one. Love you!! You can cook!!! So much better for you!!

[@alexandramanole5088]

I've yawned along with you each time 😄 i'm glad that you're having lazy days as well, you deserve them to reconnect with yourself and that gorgeous feline you've got! 🍷❤️

[@Eleventwentytwo]

Those slippers look like fluffy clouds 😍 Yasss for Lydia Sundays 🙌

[@northernlassie4958]

Make sure you always wash your hands with soap after touching the raw meat and before touching your greens etc until the pink is cooked from the meat. The bacteria on your fingers will get onto your other food and could make you sick....doesn't take much.

[@luxuryFean]

Lydia, if you are scared of the chicken giving you poisoning, I have the perfect solution. Cut it into small pieces while it's raw, therefore when you cook it, it takes less time to cook but faster to reach temp internally. So you shouldn't be worried about it not being cooked all the way, which is what will get you ill. Simple! Cheers!

[@RachelPuccetti]

Perfect Sunday night video!💕

[@michelleduncan3911]

When working with multiple brands, do they ever impose a clause that would prevent you from working with future brands that are their competitors?

[@Anna-rn1tc]

I was wondering about that as well 🤔

[@icdb_a823]

Me as well does the brands have restrictions with endorsement other brands...

[@mann7298]

im sure there are some restrictions in some occasions, but it would be nice to know if and how they exist within the 'influencer community' (versus withing celebrities, like kendall jenner being the face of la perla (?) and not attending the vs show bc both are lingerie brands)

[@nadhirahothman]

Hi Lydia, your skin is so smooth. Other than skincare, do you do facials? If yes, PLEASE share them! I want to start doing facials but don't know where to start. Thank you!!

[@BeautyCraviiing]

You are truly my inspiration to become more self confident & to focus on my personal growth. You are gorgeous, intelligent and the perfect working girl! When I watch your videos I really want to pursue my "dream" of starting a beauty channel. Watching you make me think that everything is possible when you put your mind to it. Love from France.

[@TheTutuTailor]

Don't be afraid! Get a thermometer so that you can test the temperature of the meat when it's cooking so that you know it's cooked to the proper temperature.

[@arshiaverma427]

Definetely seeing a difference in your skin 😍 It looks so radiant, glowy, hydrated and well kept 😍 Thanks for sharing your skincare routine 😙 Definetely will be trying them cause I desperately need something that will sort out my face 😂

[@minooverdi5459]

An easy tip that will change your life. Cut up the chicken (thighs have the most flavour). Heat up some water in your frying pan and slide in the chicken. It quickly turns opaque. take it off the heat and leave to cool. Add to salad. This leaves the chicken silky soft. Frying tends to make it go hard, especially if you overcook it. Thighs (as opposed to the breast) also can very rarely overcook, so always a safer bet. The Chinese have a method to keep meat silky soft also called "velveting/een. I use both depending on how much time I have. x

[@msaicha5165]

ohhh lydia i looooooove your make-up, the eyeshadow suits you so much❤️I have only watched the video for 45 sec and wanted to get that out before i continue😘

[@bethhagler7914]

Your skin is looking terrific! The chicken and salad look good. Think of the "burned bits" as additional flavoring.

[@aande5348]

Thanks to you I've found out about byTERRY foundation and cosmetics, I have NEVER been so amazed and obsessed with product like this! Thank you

[@ashleymoriahh]

LOL I know the feeling. Are there bulbs you can change in the bathroom? That'd be an easy/cheap option to try for better lighting. Or maybe installing a vanity mirror with a dimmer switch if it's worth the trouble.

[@becuteforme]

Dear Lydia: Fill a spray water with warm water, a few drops of dish soap and some peppermint essential oil. Shake it up and spray the hell out of those walls and cupboards. You will defeat the battle with those spiders.

[@ramanahluwalia3491]

Lydia!!!! I love how your making your vlogs, 40 minutes!!! Omg yesssss I love you so much❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@racheldavid457]

Lydia with 40 minutes wow💫💕 I have to make some tea and something to eat as well, everything was gorgeous and the jumpsuit was so fabulous and you were glowing and I love you😘

[@SharahHanna]

Omg i love you lydia!! Been watching for you for about more than a year now and you are just so adorable! You are so funny when doing your night time routine

[@robespierrey]

Oh my God, speaking in front of all that people! Wow. I would never be able to do that, Lydia, congratulations!!

[@IshanAli]

You look so classy!

[@Rebecca-pr3fn]

Your skin is radiant... keep doing what you are doing, try using a richer cream though out the winter time. Always wear SPF sun cream everyday.... all year long..xo

[@raquel_cb_]

Is the first time I saw to use a cleansing balm with water at the start. Has no sense to me. I always use them without water, the texture is what helps to clean. And then water... to remove it.

[@Kim-rc8ym]

Still wets her face with water before using cleansing balms & oils

[@bigeyedfish09]

Actually, balm cleansers are meant to be used on dry skin so that the oils have a chance to dissolve the makeup first. Give it a try and I think you'll like the results :)

[@katiecheated]

Heyaaa, just wanted to comment to say I use the Alpha-H Liquid Gold every other night, without following with moisturizer or anything else after, you are supposed to do that as far as I know. The morning after, I do my usual cleanse and moisturizer and ALWAYS SPF after you ve used AHA/BHA the night before, it s super important. The nights I don t use Liq Gold, I just pile on the moisture, but that s just what I enjoy for my skin :D Kisses, loooooved the video!!!

[@Dandoony]

You're getting popular but I still feel at home w you! Also, thank you for including Lumie in the videos!

[@sophieoconnell9148]

Lydia collect conkers and put them on your windowsills to stop spiders coming inside, they give off a smell that deters spiders!xxx

[@michellepetrillo4565]

Hi Lydia! I love these videos! With all of the over saturated ads/beauty vlogs on youtube, it's nice to see original content ! :)

[@strawberriesandcream4474]

Love love love your videos!!! Your style is my inspiration to look good and feel good!!! You rock Lydia! 😘😘😘

[@Claareenkaa]

40min vlog again! I'm loving this haha ! 🤗 Can't help it that jumpsuit is frikin' amazing!! If you're scared about poisoning yourself with meat or anything really just buy a probe, I'm sure you can even get it of amazon and that way you can always check if the meat is cooked (over 75C') 🙂 I never ever had a problem with it(especially now that I don't eat meat but still use it to check when reheating etc.) but since I live with a chef he made me paranoid so now I use it every time I cook 😂

[@sagesabiduria7120]

I love this video, congrats Lydia! ☺️☺️ Can you please tell us what lip product you're wearing? It's slightly pinkier than your regular nude lip. It's sooo lovely!

[@cemarci]

I feel the same way about cooking meat! I don't really like to and there are only like 2 dishes I know how to make with meat, otherwise I make vegetarian meals for myself. So thank you for sharing :) I totally understand!

[@polinasyr9594]

I have so many fears that stop me from doing many things in life! You mentioned that you have many fears and you try to overcome them I would like a video from you on this matter! I believe you would help me and many others that are in a similar position! I enjoy your video so much because you have class and you are honest and down to earth! Hope you the best in life!

[@TheBeautybound]

Loved your makeup for the meet & greet, would you please share what you used? Thanks!!!

[@AA-xc2zz]

Well my Sunday now is complete! Thanks Lydia! 💓🙌🏻

[@ArmitaAsgari]

Haha you are so cute. Loved this! Try rubbing some oil on your fake lashes to loosen them before you take them off...like coconut oil ☺️. I totally agree regarding not using a moisturiser after a retinoid product, I feel the same...it won't have the same effect. You have lovely skin 🙌🏻 xx

[@MrsValerie777]

This is my fav video so far! I love all your videos but this one is soooo funny especially the scene in the bathroom where you take your make up off. Soo goood 😂😂😂 love you ❤️❤️

[@tiffanimarkwood3569]

Lydia, I stuggle with the same fear of gettin sick from meat! so i got a meat thermometer and stick it in and it will tell you if its perfectly cooked. it's really seemed to help me. just thought i'd let you know. also, you're a beauty! you're actually my wallpaper on my phone. lol much love.

[@syrinemetzger79]

Lydia, I feel you. I hate, HATE, spiders. Last time, I went to the gym and take my shower there. Didn't check the cabin before and saw these two gigantic spiders when I turned on the water.... I freaked out ! People thought I fell down on the floor when they heard my stuff hitting the ground. Love your vlog !

[@emyeu6286]

Thank you for the skin care routine! Love your vlogs! Could you do a morning routine plz? 🙏🏼

[@gailsmith4095]

Hi Lydia, your vlogs are the best!! Can you do a video showing what items you bought from Sephora and also what you think of the Glossier products you bought recently in New York. Mwah xxx

[@camilahafez8486]

Lydia your honesty gorgeous It's unbelievable !

[@ghc26]

Such a beautiful group of supporters at your meet-up, and did I see Claire sitting in the back? Love seeing Carrie and Claire in your videos! You've turned me on to so many great brands, including the By Terry products, now I'll look for #30 lip too! 💕💄💋Happy Sunday!

[@carinamue839]

Hi Lydia, can you leave a comment about your Givenchy beauty case? Recently you said you love it so much. Can you explain what you would recommend to have an eye on when buying a good beauty case for travelling? I would really apprechiate a good recommendation 😊

[@RosangelaR]

Oh & about the eyelash removal, dab a q-tip into some coconut oil & run it gently across the lash line. It will loosen the adhesive. (:

[@mademoiseller5832]

I absolutely luv ur long videos they make me H A P P Y ❤️

[@tpink4651]

When are you going to do a New York City haul?

[@graciep112]

omg i used to have the same fear about giving myself food poisoning but lydia try getting a meat thermometer! it has been a lifesaver to making sure my food is cooked through every time!!

[@KrisKrisenKris]

If you're concerned about food poisoning especially whilst cooking meats invest in a meat thermometer and google what the cooking temps should be. It can put your mind at ease knowing that your meat is brought to the proper temperature (risk of food bourn illness dramatically decreases at that point) :)
