Zabrena, Burt's Bees has a new line of makeup. Review please!!

[@Zabrena]

Thank you, Cheri! Definitely keeping my eye out for them!

[@rachelporter6077]

Cheri Coffman Burt's bees is 100% cruelty free 😊 👍👍

[@Zabrena]

I upload three videos a week, Hun :)

[@aracelideleon1877]

Zabrena seems less...lol

[@cherylmoore9438]

I loved the look in your eyes when you saw the ball on the liner-- priceless

[@Zabrena]

LOL ;)

[@tonithorson3399]

I want more green eye shadows for fall

[@erinescence2095]

There's a green version of the Maybelline City Mini palette. I think it's called Urban Jungle.

[@skinnypigs1]

Oh goodness, when you were holding that eye cream up and not looking, I was panicking watching it slowly start to slide out of the container haha. I love these videos, always fun to see what is new.

[@jeepcat16]

The Rimmel eyeliner is meant to be pulled along the eyeline and the ball reduces skin pulling. It's not meant to be used in short or dabbing strokes. With my carpal tunnel I greatly appreciate it and how easy it is to quickly line my eyes.

[@ShannonCoral]

I need to get my hands on those eye shadows!

[@Zabrena]

so good!

[@12345Daphne54321]

I would love to see what you think of ColourPop Cosmetics!

[@clodie8297]

MikkoRenee Great idea. Would also Love to see Zabrena doing combos with the Colourpop eyeshadows

[@konohaninja1238]

Colourpop would be a good choice! Both the super shock and the pressed powder versions.

[@weebo45]

yassss

[@pinklishdot]

Can you try the elf mad for matte 2? Maybe even compare it to the modern renaissance and the tarteist pro palette? Or maybe include it in a testing dupes video

[@jnl3564]

pinklishdot I think they just came out with a 3rd mad for matte, a smoky one!

[@mackenzierobertson4826]

I haven't even finished the video yet and I've already liked it because I know I can trust the opinions you're giving! Much love!♥️😊

[@Zabrena]

Aw, thank you so much Mackenzie! Happy to serve! :)

[@mackenzierobertson4826]

Zabrena I just squealed a little bit seeing you replied lol. And thank YOU for all of the hard work you put in for you content😊

[@SJL07]

That one eyebrow... 😳😆 Great frugal Friday as always, Zabrena!

[@Zabrena]

LOL! ;) Thanks for watching, Sharon!

[@lauramuse910]

I miss Rimmel's eyeshadow quads that they used to sell at Walgreens. Their purple was DELIGHTFUL!!!

[@IamMissPronounced]

I love love LOVE the super-soft, daytime eye look! So feminine 😍

[@MrsYasha1984]

I just love watching you! You have such a great charisma, fun but classy, almost soothing and without drama.

[@mrsauntnana]

I 100% totally agree we need more purple eyeshadow palettes!!

[@yuriannee]

You tested so many products I've been thinking of purchasing! Read my mind woot woot

[@Samantha-ws7xr]

Anyone else have massive anxiety when that eye cream started coming out of the container? 😂😂

[@alannahmcgrath1692]

I only use cruelty free makeup, most drugstore brands you use are not cruelty free! Can you please please do a video during only cruelty free products 🤞🏻🙏🏻! Some cruelty free brands are: Pixie, Wet n wild, E.l.f, Physicians Formula, and Essence! Your videos are so helpful and fun though❤️

[@rachelporter6077]

Alannah McGrath NYX, Milani, and Tarte are also cruelty free

[@Zabrena]

Next week's video is ALL cruelty free! :)

[@alannahmcgrath1692]

Zabrena thank you so so so much!!!!! I'm so excited!!!!!!

[@stephaniecastro4292]

+Alannah McGrath yay!!!!! me too! I buy cruelty free products too♥

[@makeupboss9812]

Believe me it’s not that I don’t care, I do - just can’t afford some of these higher end cruelty free makeups . Some of the lower end , sure . I use Wet n Wild , and physicians formula. I hear Flower is cruelty free, is it ?

[@yensid4294]

I agree, it's been difficult to find purple or green. And when you do find purple or plum, it looks grey or brown on your eyes : ( I ended up buying a little Viseart palette in Amethyst which was very pretty but nowhere near as vibrant as what you're wearing. Or cheap lol. It's a gorgeous palette & the shadows are wonderful to work with, just wish we'd see more shades of purple & green in many finishes & depth of hues (not just shimmer)

[@Msrussianbeauty20]

Lol the anxiety i had seeing the gel eye moisturizer dripping !!!)))

[@airhornoises]

Yes, so excited for the liquid lipstick video in the future, I'm always looking for a good drugstore liquid lipstick

[@EmillyMadelon]

Loooooveeee your first impressions!!! you're the best!

[@kkelle9151]

OMG so pleasantly surprised when you gave us a wear test update at the end! First impressions really aren't that helpful without knowing how they last. Thank you.

[@han5234]

That purple shadow is beautiful!

[@mickih2872]

That blush is such a gorgeous color

[@LisaTaylorBeauty]

Love this boo! You look gorgeous!! 😍 Thanks for sharing babe and look forward to seeing more!! ♡

[@dajuice3999]

Love your frugal Fridays reviews

[@Keri8198]

My favorite purple palette is the old Covergirl quad one.

[@trishpage8750]

when you're watching another video and leave it to watch Z! 😉

[@Zabrena]

AW! MUAH!! Hugs to you!

[@ashleybeauty5901]

YES!

[@momo0433]

Stop being cringey and no ones gives a fugg.

[@robertamccullum9616]

Thank you that demo, very informative . Very helpful . 😊

[@yinxavier8451]

I love your skin, it's so beautiful!

[@lavernreid2436]

Thanks for sharing and theses type of videos are very helpful...

[@cottoneyedjoe7952]

We LOVE your videos, never miss one. Keep being so awesome and sweet. We would be really interested in seeing a full face of Rimmell. Their eye-shadow palettes are super intriguing.

[@terinolan9963]

love the eye look you created! love your videos & u r gorgeous!

[@Slumberingbenches]

There's something so soothing about your voice. I love it so much!

[@Genie1677]

Girl, you crack me up! Love your personality!

[@99bitsy]

I love your videos and I absolutely love when they're longer like this one!! 💕🙌🏻

[@xvanilladropzxful]

Love your videos!!!!!

[@kygunner7579]

Awesome video. Thanks for focusing on affordable makeup that is worth buying. Recently picked up some Fit Me setting powder, it worked and wore well for me. Gotta have the peach blush now to compliment it!

[@iWasMadeInTheUsa]

The way that one eyebrow came out is how i feel whenever i try to do my brows. I envy your talent !! Lol

[@MsMOLLYKINS]

Seriously , you could roll around in the mud and still look incredible. Goodness you really are a natural beauty . My sisters got your colouring and hair I got Mousey brown and so pale you can see through it . Anyway love your channel xoxoxo.

[@adejanelson3870]

I absolutely love your eye color.

[@normanharris930]

Please do a Tarte Shape Tape drugstore dupe. Been waiting for one! Thank you!

[@Anonymous-qz2dl]

Genuinely shocked by the pigmentation of the first Maybelline eyeshadow 😂

[@fnafgalaxy9984]

I've been wanting to try the new Maybelline eyeshadow palettes and the new loreal eyeshadows! I can always count on you to give me the okay or stay away!

[@sfeliciano1984]

Im waiting for a dupe of the viseart amethyst palette. I love purples and I want that amethyst palette but don't want to pay so much

[@ladyflimflam]

Stephanie Feliciano The amethyst palette is so beautiful though, and drugstore purples are generally so disappointing. If you would wear a purple palette lots it may be worth saving up for.

[@dreamof_me]

ladyflimflam purple's in general are hard to formulate because of the pressing of the manganese pigments

[@freakofnature9580]

try the city color figtastic and the Kara Eyeshadow Palette ES10, and the morphe 35f. each have similar tones and aren't half bad pigment wise

[@freakofnature9580]

neve cosmetics also has some great purple tones for less money

[@lindseybailes2706]

Stephanie Feliciano its only $45 and not $80. I know it's still expensive, but not as bad. I feel like a purple palette might be worth a splurge. Purples are hard to come by and if you go through and buy a few drugstore palettes,you might be right there w price. Same thing as if you went with Makeup Geek. I was thinking of making my own palette, but its as expensive as buying a palette.

[@TheMusicfreekceo]

Thank you for the review. I'll be picking up the Olay Hydrating gel and I'll also give Maybeline a shot.❤️

[@Jokah113]

Waiting on Makeup Revolution to dupe the Naked Heat Palette hahahaha!!!

[@MyNijahDarling]

They're also not enough GREEN eyeshadow palettes. I love love LOVE wearing green shadows and looks. Green brings out my eyes and skin. I love green. 💚

[@leahvosburg6095]

Love your nail color

[@normanharris930]

I would like to request an updated best of the drugstore concealers. Also, trying out makeup from Wish would be cool for your Frugal Friday upload.

[@lovelavenderlily]

You're so right about purple! It's my favorite color and I can never find a purple eyeshadow that is pigmented enough! I'm excited to try the maybelline palette!

[@erinescence2095]

The weird thing is that purple shadows were everywhere in the drugstore in the late 70s and early 80s. You couldn't get away from them! Wonder what changed.

[@pattiz1592]

I'm enjoying those Maybelline city mini pallets 🙌

[@makeupboss9812]

Wow , those purple shades are awesome. I love purple, might wear some today, since we might be going out a little later.

[@whiterosebabie]

I love the Graffiti colors! The blush is a beautiful color. I have to say that I don't like that color lipstick on you, but that's just a personal opinion. Thank you so much for making videos like this. You have saved me so much money over the time I've been watching them!

[@bookwrm4evr]

Speaking of drugstore makeup, per your recommendation, i picked up L'Oréal's lash paradise mascara (reg) & i LOOOOVE it so much! I can't wear too much of that brand because it makes me itchy/dry, but im so happy that mascara doesn't. It has to be, hands down, the best mascara I've ever used. Im 34, so I've used a lot lol.

[@TexasBeliever57]

I love frugal Fridays!

[@JessicaRabbit324]

Frugal Friday is my favorite day! Love your videos 💖💖💖

[@livin4jc3]

Is it bad that I literally laughed out loud when you put that brow product on? Lolol!! Love you!

[@Zabrena]

Hey, if it made you laugh then my job is DONE! LOL ;) Hugs!

[@theeluannesantos]

I'm loving your eye look! I need to grab a few of the metallic shadows and the City Minis. I love you Zabrena! Your videos are always very helpful. Snap Fam

[@ladyflimflam]

There are never enough purple shadow palettes. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 I bought the taupe in that new loreal single. Really love it. Didn't get the purple just because drugstore purples so rarely work and the disappointment is heartbreaking. Glad this one is nice.

[@ashleydawn8423]

Frugal Fri-Yay!

[@FallonZoey]

i wish you would of showed us a clip of how you looked hours later! i love when you do that. Think im gonna pick up the eyeshadows from Maybelline & Loreal.... ive been eyeing them. Especially the Loreal metallics. I cant believe your not on the PR list for all these drugstore cosmetic companies! You do alot of reviews of their products! 💜💛💚💙💗🌸🦄🎀

[@michaelacevedo4822]

You are the only one make up guru I trust🙏❤️

[@nickilubra3981]

YES! I AGREE! NOT ENOUGH PURPLE PALLETTES!!

[@jenniferkopenga4383]

The look was beautiful on you!! HOWEVER those brows giiiirrrrrllll oh nooooo 😝👎🏻 that product was HORRIBLE that was CLEAR to see....what are these companies thinking when they release things like that?? Obviously it had to have been tested on a human beforehand like WHAAAAT 🤔🤔that lipstick was really nice and the color looked fabulous on your skin tone!!! As always thank you for sharing your thoughts and review and SAVING us MONEY!!! Wink...great video Zabrena 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@letyreyna8473]

Thanks for vid

[@marygaray9174]

my mom and I love watching your videos you have seriously helped us so much in finding amazing making that won't break our bank! Lol you are awesome and I always look forward to watching your videos every week....can you try the new maybelline super stay matte ink lipsticks?? I tried one and loved it but would love your opinion on them :)

[@meritaholmes9582]

I love the purple zabrena

[@allieg6401]

Great video once again thanks! did the liner stay glossy?

[@melanieflores5416]

I love all your videos Zabrena. 👋🏻 from Mexico ❤️

[@LinksShad0w]

Love your reviews! Where is the double ended fan brush from?!

[@kimberlytolliver3599]

Could you do a frugal Friday on the best liquid highlighters (tested both under and over foundation)?

[@ronnisteinwand9564]

I wore the lip color mat same color and I love it I loved the color and it lasted all day

[@ivechang6720]

The shadows interest me. My addiction to combo palettes mean I have too many blushes tho. 😂 Thanks for another great video. Be happy blessings! ♡♥

[@nadynemotherofcatz]

I made my own all pink and all purple palettes with Coastal Scent Hot Pots.

[@vendettapopetta]

I'm with you on that purple eyeshadow palette topic. Can't wait for the warm toned palette trend to be over 😒

[@susanschaefer325]

I need those metallic shadows.

[@nia8889]

I love you so much !!

[@TheBandmom4ever]

I can't recall who else didn't like the liquid liner, but she cut the ball tip. After she did that, it worked smoothly.

[@tracyfrederick5606]

Very pretty look! I like these little palettes ! I've got 3. One is green and I have not tried it yet. ( I feel it's a cool weather color... Weird ? I know!)

[@erinescence2095]

I have the City Mini palette in Sunrise but haven't tried it yet. Maybe today's the day! :)

[@kerrid.979]

Maybelline used to have a weird applicator for one of their liquid liners. I think it was supposed to do a thin or thicker line, depending on how you held it. I could never figure it out, and the formula was goopy, so I tossed it. Yes to more purples! GOOD, violet/blue toned purples, especially. (Plum ones make me look sickly.)

[@reverseeffect]

Kerri Doll can you believe they still sell that hot mess of an eyeliner? I see it everyday at work. -_-

[@beberivera7011]

It's gonna drip!!!!

[@kikilivanos7763]

I had to laugh with the eyebrows 😂😂😂

[@jessicanorthey2321]

Essence came out with quite a few new products, too!

[@christyb9364]

Super sassy today! Lol, I like it!

[@mcdonaldtrump3712]

Yayyyy I loveee your vids they make my day :)))

[@margaretocasio2840]

I love frugal Friday

[@anastasiac680]

Great video as always! Can always rely on some good reviews from Zabrena 🙃🤗

[@erinescence2095]

Wow, I'm surprised the Rimmel Stay Matte Liquid Lipstick was not-so-great because Rimmel has a lot of my favorite drugstore lip products!

[@jnl3564]

You're so right about needing more purple eyeshadow a! I have green eyes and am forever trying to find good shades. Have you seen the morphe 35P palette?

[@Carly-hd8vh]

Please please please try the new essence "Little Beauty Angels" line! 🙏🏻 btw love your videos and your personality 💕😘

[@lisaleone2296]

I agree with you on Maybelline. I have loved their lipsticks for a long time, but their eyeshadows were hit and miss. I like that new graffiti palette. And yes, not enough purple palettes :)

[@marcelasosa4954]

Love your videos God bless ❤️

[@lindseybailes2706]

You love purples!

[@marcelasosa4954]

Can you try Shea Moisture makeup in the future

[@lindam6358]

When the eye gel started to drip out I started to say something and realized I'm watching tv, you wouldn't hear me 😀

[@shastaphilip]

Hey Zabrena! What brush do you use to pack on eyeshadow? I love how short the bristles on that brush is and how dense it looks!

[@ivorypetalz]

Hey Zabrena, I'd love to hear what you think about the new lip line from nyx cosmetics called slip tease.

[@LdyJayde]

I wish you had swatched all the eyeshadow colors :( Really pretty purples though. Loved the look

[@thumbelina29]

I bought the rimmel liner, thought the ball was meant to be removed but no it's just weird. Think I may cut it off as otherwise I've wasted my money. Love your channel

[@Zabrena]

so glad it wasn't just me! So weird!

[@thumbelina29]

Zabrena thanks for replying x it's late here in the UK but I had to watch your video when notification came

[@JD-dq8zn]

thumbelina29 I thought it would be good for speckling and avant garde dotted looks. I am also intrigued by the idea of an irregular liner look but don't have any idea how that would look good yet!
