Splurge Worthy Beauty Products (and some budget faves!)

[@SabrinaPardoe]

The working girl salary just seems so much more relatable and realistic! At least for me it is. It’s hard to justify so many high end products that everyone else pushes out so often. Love this video!!!

[@torrentraisin]

I grew up watching you, I would even credit you for my English skills. I’m sooooo happy to see you are doing SO WELL. It’s also refreshing to see a youtuber who knows what the real world is like! I wish the best for you!

[@jaquelineleocadio2565]

That is true, my English improved so much after I found out about beauty videos on KZbin. Blair was the first one I've watched. I'm brazilian.

[@wermik89]

The year I took my CAE test, the listening part was actually about make-up brushes, even the kabuki one :D

[@manuelatedesco8183]

Same !!!

[@tk7519]

Lol! I used to follow Elle fowler to improve my English pronunciation 😅

[@illmindofanaivegirl]

Same! I am dyslexic and it was so hard for myself to motivate to learn English and i learned from blair 💕

[@LifeAsTeeInThisWeirdWorld]

Love the openness and realness with the budget talk. Really appreciate the perspective of you discussing how you don't have an influencer budget anymore and prioritizing what's important to you and where you save money. Great video!

[@ewyore2709]

You talking about make up with a candle burning in the background takes me back in time and it’s a nice nostalgic feeling.

[@Pinay010.]

I must say i felt like you used to be out of reality with the "real" world and i think its so vulnerable and humble to be transparent over where you were and where you are ❤

[@mylifeontheElist]

I love how you didn’t just list your splurges vs budget products but actually talked about HOW you budget for those splurges. Never even thought to plan for how long a product lasts so I don’t end up buying them all at once, such a good tip!

[@weshasawi]

There’s a reason why you were so big back in the day, you’re good at this! So happy that you’re back

[@ItsKourtneylove]

Makeup brands and products have changed so much since you posted beauty videos regularly, so this was so interesting to see what you love now!

[@albaca0799]

I’ve got a working girl budget and this is SO HELPFUL. You and your sister are the two KZbinrs who I trust with recommendations!

[@andzelikastepniewska7003]

Blair I would love to see you doing your updated everyday makeup. Maybe like a morning get ready with me or something?

[@mel.1110]

i'm always distracted by your beautiful room!! would love details on your space or even just the wallpaper!

[@juicystar07]

that's a great idea! I want to do a whole video on it soon!

[@kaileydeluca6531]

@@juicystar07 an updated room tour would be absolutely iconic!

[@Ana-xq3yr]

Blair, I’m so happy to see you doing these kinds of sit down videos again. I remember when you got tons of flack back in the day for doing sponsor videos, yet everyone now is doing them and no one bats an eye. Everything you been through has lead to the amazing life you have now with your handsome soulmate. PS I never believed in soulmates until I saw the way he looked at you ❤

[@lailakhan6007]

Okay but I am so happy to see you back again talking about beauty - but so relatable. Today I was stressed about my budget and was feeling bad about it but nice to hear an influencer speaking openly about those kind of things. Love that I followed you as a teen and now we're both working girls :)

[@tokkiheartsyou]

I was 10 years old obsessed with your videos back in the Glitzy Glam days and I wanted to buy everything but I was just a kid 😂 I’m 25 and we’re both engaged now!! 🥰❤️ So proud of everything you’ve accomplished, you’re like an online big sis to me 🥹

[@MorganP96]

I'm 28 - and I remember in middle/high school my friends and I would spent our sleepovers gathered around our parent's computer watching your videos! It's so cool seeing how you've developed as a person, and discovered your interests and passions. I have a BFA in Studio Art; I'd be SO interested to see content from you pertaining to decor and design! .. As well as wedding planning content, since I'm also recently engaged! If anything, I hope that you can feel and know that KZbin is a safe space and outlet for your thoughts and creativity - as your fans, we will accept as much or as little as you choose to share!

[@KG__222]

Yes to the wedding content! ❤

[@Blazysammie]

Why am I almost crying listening to you talk again, I watched you all through middle school and some of high school until you went back to school, definitely rooting for you and so happy to see you thriving and enjoying making content again❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@BelleDakota]

Yay! Pls tell your Mama Happy Mother’s Day & that we are grateful she raised such wonderful women 💐💝

[@katabukor7055]

My God, this was so wholesome, balm to my tired soul! I’m 33, followed you for years and years and years from 2009/2010. I cherish your return now, it’s the best kind of nostalgia and warms my heart ❤️

[@pbthefirst630]

Blair, I’ve followed you since around 2007, and I’m so happy for you and all your accomplishments since then. You seem so fulfilled, happy, and even more like-able than you were in your “prime” influencer years. I think conquering your fear and going to college as an older student is the best thing you could’ve done for yourself. You seem genuinely content and confident, and I love that you exude both beauty & brains & a sensibility that can only be earned thru education and real life experience :) best wishes to you ~

[@Princessnugget1782]

You’re so much more relatable now/compared to other influencers online! I appreciate you talking about the budget and how you choose which items to spend extra on and what to just get the cheaper option

[@marchpane100]

Hearing you talk about budgeting was so refreshing and I think that your approach is really smart! 😊 thank you for the video, I love watching favorites.

[@TheSunnyD01]

Omg a beauty blabber right after a juicy jabber!!!! Let me go grab my Mac Studio fix concealer and coastal shadow 100 color palette and nars orgasm blush. Oh jk they expired 10+ years ago. Good thing this video came just in time to introduce me to new products! ❤

[@shae-lynnstamp3348]

honestly it feels great to watch someone discussing beauty knowing they live an ordinary, working life like myself. very refreshing to see this amongst a sea of influencers with seven and eight figure salaries.

[@cllover9371]

Been a subscriber for the last 15 years. Now I hope Blair talks more about interior design as I’m at the age where I get more excited about chairs than makeup 😂.

[@Whitsr]

You are a testament of success in so many ways and irs so inspiring to see. You went from your parents bedroom filming.. moving to LA. Doing the entire LA thing (used to live there, it can definitely be challenging) then you said nope its best for me if i go back to school.. its inspiring because like you said you went from influencer budget to normal. This would be SO difficult for the majority of people. Kudos to you for sticking to yourself. I hope you give yourself all the credit you deserve... And congrats on your engagement!

[@amye2745]

Genuinely so happy to see you on my screen again Blair! You were always such a comfort watch for me back when I was a teenager and is so lovely to see you now. Grown and engaged and being a 8-5 corporate girlie like me 😂 Lots of love ❤❤❤

[@thisgirllovestoshopx]

Seeing this video in my feed felt like such a treat! Influencer videos these days are terrible for my adhd & give me anxiety. They talk too quickly, the thumbnails are too chaotic & the theme of the video always feels click baity for the views. But I never feel like that with the OG influencers like you, elle, fleur, lindsey etc. It’s always calm. It always feels like a warm hug. I leave the video feeling joyous and happy. I’m so happy you made this video/ are back making videos. Even if it is as little as once a year! Or not even! There’s no pressure Blair. I can confidently say I will always feel happy after watching a video of yours regardless of how frequently or non-frequently you upload! I often rewatch you & elle & just put your videos on in the background while i’m doing chores. But then sometimes I feel a little isolated cause i’m watching a video from 8 years ago & don’t know what’s going on in the world 😅 so it’s a tough balance.. but you will always have our love and support! Thank you for the joy you brought me as a teenager & also the joy you bring me now as someone in my mid 20’s. Your videos with your dad during vlogmas were some of my favourite. Wishing you, Elle, Jellybean, your Mum & Dad well always! 🩷

[@thechoice301]

I used to watch you almost religiously back in your beauty influencer days but I have to say your content now with your admirable transparency and honesty is just so refreshing. Seeing you talk about budgeting, botox, scars, etc so openly was so impressive. So much love and respect for you from Pakistan

[@aleesaywhat]

Gotta love when an OG posts a new video 🥲 just like most of your followers, I’ve grown up watching you as well and love seeing where you are now. I also loved hearing how you are budgeting self-care items as it helps me figure out my budget strategy as a stay at home mom now. Can’t wait to see more content from you 😍

[@allisonclements4476]

I watched your videos for years and this video reminded me what I have been missing from youtubers lately. You've always been relatable and I feel like that is even more true now. You seem so happy and fulfilled in this new phase of your life and I'm excited to see more from you!

[@cv7958]

We’re around the same age and I grew up watching you and Michelle Phan. There’s a nostalgic feeling seeing you post content here and there… like an old friend from HS or college popping in to say how things are going. You just pick up right where you left off and it really does take you back to that period of your life. There’s also something so calming and authentic to post for fun - the original purpose of social media. I don’t comment very much but just wanted to say hi. I don’t even think I ever commented back then but I did watch your videos consistently.

[@TheBeautyJournals]

What a throwback. I rewatch your old videos every few years as you were one of the first beauty guru’s I started watching. X

[@NicolesPlans1]

I would love to see a get ready with me! Maybe like a chatty one talking about how wedding planning is going? Or a story time one? I would also love to see a video talking through how you figured out your budget, a morning and night routine, skincare routine (could be in those videos) or even decor tips on a budget or budget friendly ways to change the look of a space!

[@adrimonterroza_]

From watching you while taking breaks from studying to watching you while taking breaks from working... Time flies! So, so glad to see you around again! Super proud of the woman you've become. You were and still are my favorite KZbin girl!

[@HaileyWilliamson-f6b]

This is the first time I am leaving a comment on a KZbin video, ever, but I just had to. I like so many others in the comments here practically grew up watching Blair and Elle's videos (and me and Blaire are the same age!) I learned so much from this beauty guru duo from how to do my hair, makeup, how to organize and decorate my bedroom / apartment and handbags...and had so much fun the whole time. Today I'm a successful investment executive in Mayfair and am also about to be engaged, and a lot of my makeup and fashion taste (and handbag organization skills!) today, aged 31, still go back to what I learned from Elle and Blair. I was so excited to find Blair has been making videos again and I am living for it. Nostalgia overload. SO excited for more content..!

[@christiancosentino9066]

I grew up watching you and you are the reason I love makeup. You taught me everything, thank you for being there for me even though you had no idea how much of an impact you were to me. I’m so excited for your future! I absolutely love these new videos thank you!! Hailee

[@lindsaybevan7748]

I grew up watching you too!!! I've watched all the life phases and it's so cool to see where you have landed now. You are so grounded and mature and just awesome.

I also use Cle de Peau concealer. There is no better. With the brush they made for it and dig all the way down to the base. I buy one once a year so I feel it's justified ❤

[@alexhines713]

So happy to see you back here! Dare I say I prefer this content over your influencer days??? It’s so refreshing to see someone who’s done the whole influencer thing and come out of it and back around to the real world. You were so ahead of your time with the influencer game and where it is now. It’s refreshing to see how you rebuilt your life and have entered the working world. I think so many of us that watched you for years and years grew up to be corporate girlies and it’s so relatable to see someone that’s within your same budget sharing their thoughts, opinions, and likes with you. Keep these videos coming! I love it all! 🖤🖤🖤

Blair, seeing you film these kinds of videos again is so lovely. You're the first beauty youtuber I started watching back when you were filming in your green bedroom and I was 12. Your videos helped me a lot while I was learning English back then. I'm so impressed with how you've grown. You're smart and accomplished and mature. And beautiful as always, of course!
