so my nose looked a LITTLE better at the end of the day with the primer, but nothing super noticeable in regards to the wear time of my foundation. my nose did look slightly nicer throughout the day though
the blush stayed ALL DAY! I definitely noticed that the shimmer could be a little much in sunlight - might go with a lighter hand next time!
the mascara did not flake, looked the same at end of day.
the eyeshadow did not crease - looked PERFECT at end of day!!!

Please do another video like this!! Make this a series!!

[@tufornumberone]

I have quite a few high-end foundations but when I am having a day of mostly Zoom calls, I prefer to use cheaper stuff. I discovered that using L’Oreal Lumi under Sephora Best Skin Ever literally rivals any of my higher-end stuff. It is now my every day go-to. I use the one you showed and I have a tinted pinkish one. Both work great.

[@tonyamcguire4807]

Covergirl soft mink is my all time fav! It was a fav of my mothers and she’s been gone almost 9 years. I still use it several times a week because of her. ❤️🥰❤️

[@mediocrebankai3114]

Same, I’ve tried so so many blushes but that one always stays it’s gorgeous everytime I use it!

[@amandapurdy8915]

[@rachelgarcia7902]

I use it as eyeshadow as well and I love it!!

[@simisimisimi]

that’s a sweet way to remember your mom 😊❤

[@michellerjackson5776]

Moms.I miss mine dearly and have fond memories of mama beauty products/ makeup..😊

[@brandikennedy3405]

I add the Lumi Glotion to my lotion in the summer and it makes my legs and arms look healthy and glowy!

[@montieverett4983]

What a great idea!

[@brandikennedy3405]

All the body glow products were expensive or too glittery!

[@tammyroy9042]

What a FABULOUS idea! Thank you 😊❤

[@CristiSomething]

Such a good idea!!

[@Justaregularoldplumbus]

Good idea! Also if you ever see it, snag B.Tan Sun Safe AF body sunscreen, it’s in a big hot pink tube $7.99 and that stuff be GLOWY!! When I wear it I wanna prance down a beach in slow motion

[@ginginami]

For the longest time my son called yesterday "the day back behind". It was so cute and my husband and I still call it that sometimes just because it's adorable lol.

[@reencampbell4481]

That really is so adorable ❤🥹

Full and Soft is def my lifetime most-purchased mascara. It’s so fluffy and separated, and you can usually find it in brown. My OG since the 90s!

[@NatalieM.23]

Yes, Maybelline Nude Glow! I’m a high-end eyeshadow girl, but I wear Nude Glow a ton. It’s so beautiful.

[@rebekahferguson3449]

Thank you everyone who suggested these products to Jess, I’m grateful 😊👏👏💪

[@amyr4944]

What’s crazy is the Maybelline brow stuff immediately made your brows match your hair color. It looks perfect on this side of the lens🙌🏼

[@glamisbabeatv]

Also, I think it might look a bit better if she started applying towards the end of the brow and got some of the product off there first and then did the front so the end her brows were darker

[@lenashumski1368]

Yes the Maybelline instant eraser in the brightener shade!!! Shade #160. Amazing pink brightening for under eyes. Sooo underrated! 💕

[@shelbybell6207]

Miss ma'am...THAT TOP!!! GORGEOUS that color is stunning on you

[@whitneybrown4215]

I use my brow gel on my lower lashes. It looks more natural that mascara and it’s easy because of the tiny wand.

[@lisafeldmann9863]

What a brilliant idea!

[@lisafalanga8457]

SO GOOD! Top secret make-up artist tip here..Apply any mascara to bottom lashes vertically w/the tip of the wand..BEFORE it dries..Take a Travel Toothbrush or any disposable fluffy wand (Univeralsal Pro Beauty Supply for cosmetoligists)..And, use THAT vertically AND back & forth motion to distribute the product..

[@jackivacha]

I love that L’Oréal primer! That’s the OG to Tarte’s timeless smoothing primer and way less expensive!

[@emmadawson1158]

The elf wow brow has fibers in it too to help build it up a little. That’s why I like it.

[@lonnyking375]

Love the brows on you. Matches your hair with the deeper brows.

[@TheLacyPeas]

My Walmart beauty section is always so picked over and unorganized. I’m so jealous you found all of these gems! 💎

[@BlingyBea]

[@zoeberry33]

It would be nice if Walmarts and CVS could keep up!

[@88kayleigh]

Same! I don’t go to Walmart often but whenever I do it’s literally like 3/4 empty, it’s insane!

[@lauraelainedesilets1189]

I agree on Walmart... I go when they open and sometimes not too bad 😔

[@amymichellestein3863]

the Almay Healthy Hue Blush-amazing, the most ethereal amount of glow, no highlighter needed and never looks sparkly. The L’oreal magic perfecting base primer is amazing. Jen Phelps got me on that one. Emily Noel always raves about the Maybelline Brow Fast Sculpt and Lumi Glotion.

[@zoeberry33]

Which color do you use?

[@amymichellestein3863]

@@zoeberry33 So Peachy!

[@rebecam2]

Hi Jess, I just wanted to say that in every video you are uploading recently, you are glowing with happiness and beauty more and more. Your tops are also killers recently. ALWAYS link those for us pleeeaaasseee. I'm following you on Disneyville YT too and had loads of laughs with your first podcast. XOXO

[@nikiichan]

Jen Phelps has mentioned several times that she loves that loreal base perfecting product. Its on my wishlist now.

[@JNMJ1978]

I found it to be a dupe for the Bobbie Brown face base

[@sarah.sarah.sarah.sarah.]

full & soft waterproof holds my curl FOREVER, highly recommend

[@nathaliehofsink5020]

Pink in the Afternoon was a favourite of Audrey Hepburn’s- her signature colour. 😘

[@MoonInMyEye]

That's been proven false

[@catanawithc]

​@@MoonInMyEye it is true. I dont know if her favorite but she promoted that color for revlon. There are a bunch of pictures of her wearing it in campaigns. You can look them up.

[@paulahillier1390]

My best drug store items: *Neutrogena hydro boost foundation. *Wet & Wild individual eye shadows in "Brule" and "Nutty" *Nyx "lift and snatch" brow marker and the "thick it stick it" gel.

[@kwit7377]

I’m new to this channel and Jessica is a doll…what a great energy! And I only regularly watch one beauty channel:))

[@danijohns4000]

She is the absolute best! You will love their vlogs on her husbands channel, TylerTravelstv. They just started a Disney podcast too. Even if you’re not a Disney fan it’s so fun to listen to them anyway. They have the best energy together! 💛

[@sherrihowe5631]

I do love Jessica ! I have been watching her for about 5-6 years now . Excellent channel ❤

[@carmendemiguel7056]

ok, Jessica, now you HAVE to find a dupe for that Covergirl blush for all of us who do not live in the US! 🙃😁🥰

[@Scampergirl]

Cover Girl Soft Mink blush is one of the most underated blushes! I love it!

[@ScrubNSqueeze]

I love these kinds of videos! I feel like the classic drugstore items aren’t usually as pricey as the newer finds but they’re just as good, if not better than the new releases!

[@betsybabf748]

I'm shocked how underrated Revlon Candid Photoready foundation is. It is so natural looking and lasts all day, just looking like skin.

[@ellaella5537]

I think Revlon as a whole is underrated. Their Fierce mascara is really good, I don’t know why barely anybody mentions it

[@AJ_AJ.]

It really is. That’s my second favorite drugstore foundation! It lasts so well! Even in the summer on my oily skin. It gets dewy, but doesn’t break down at all. I love it!

[@Snoopy0728]

I love it!

[@Hippidippimahm]

@@ellaella5537 revlon lipsticks are still the best too❤

[@Justaregularoldplumbus]

@@Hippidippimahmthey truly are the best lipsticks so much more moisturizing than loreal. I’m scared they’re going out of business and the lipsticks won’t be around anymore :(

[@insidelaurassuitcase]

I love the lip shade on you. It adds so much brightness to your face!

[@originalcaligirl7466]

The lower lash mascara looked so pretty on you.

[@Tazzyfluf]

I have really gotten back into makeup lately!!! Thanks Jess for always being here❤❤❤

[@yoamomakeup2191]

This was perfect! I've been on an OG "Classic" Makeup Kick....scrounging around Amazon and Walmart re-trying Revlon lustrous lipsticks, the covergirl cheekers blush, maybellline eyeliners, SO MUCH FUN!!!

[@tinashort9098]

I’d love to see you do a big bright full on colored eye look!! You always look so beautiful and so put together with your single shadow looks but I’d just love to see you with a pile of color!!!❤❤

[@scrapbook36]

Oh Jessie girl you need to try the revolution eye primer you tried a couple of videos back on your nose , game changer baby !

[@shaynaleann1054]

Yes the Loreal perfecting base is my HG! It is just like the Tarte one. I have massive pores and have went through so many of em! The Maybelline brow product is a fave of Emily Noel 😊💕 Maybelline falsies push up angel mascara is a must!

[@mokachick]

I honestly love love love when you wear lower lash mascara!! You look STUNNING! Period! 😍💖✨

[@dasheast1]

Love when you do drugstore makeup vids. It’s makeup that’s accessible to most everyone at a good price 😊 thanks!!

[@musicpassionalways]

I still have that Nude Glow eyeshadow from your recommendation years ago! Its definitely one of my everyday staples

[@jaynalocricchio4464]

Loved this video!! I second the Emily Noel and Jess videos to start my Saturday excitement. Great video. I would imagine the soft mink blush would be absolutely beautiful as a single eyeshadow look. Happy Saturday!

[@christinamauro494]

You definitely had that Maybelline eyeshadow because you influenced me to buy it and it’s one of my absolute favorites! 😀

[@heatherspencer4495]

I was gonna say the same thing!

[@rachelwinberry1271]

Yes!! Same! And I still use it regularly ❤😂

[@julianab.734]

I love the full n soft mascara it’s my go to every day mascara!❤

[@reenaveen]

Jess, you have been glowing recently in all your videos!!! Loving the look!

[@betholson2199]

Maybeline Sterling griege is my favorite, then nude glow and the glow down. I have extra just in case. Also the cover girl blush in true plum is great if you want that purple mauve color that was trendy awhile back, but it’s very wearable.

[@lynnseydoane6504]

This is one of my favorite looks you have done!! That lip color is perfect for spring!

[@VelvetCelieste]

The Loreal Magic primer makes a great under eye primer under concealer if you have fines lines. I use this one every day that I wear makeup

[@carok6914]

Again, such a beautiful look (makeup, hairstyle, top etc) 💕

[@BelleStreetBoyz]

I love the Lumi Glotion! I pulled it back out a couple weeks ago and I've been loving it to give my skin a little extra life in the dry winter 👌🏻

[@melissaw6446]

I wear the Loreal Glowtion every day under my makeup as a primer. LOVE it!

[@ArwenNMyrtlesMom]

My son had a whole bunch of those cute vocabulary words that I didn't have the heart to correct. One of the kids I used to babysit for called their elbow an Elmo. Probably one of my top kidisms ever.

[@AJ_AJ.]

When my oldest was like 2.5-3, she would call Funyuns funny onions. We always call them that now. She gets a kick out of it even at 8, although she would never call them that anymore 🥺

[@planningkitten]

Love that you got pink in the afternoon again because I bought that colour because of you back in the day 😊 the look turned out so great and I’m definitely thinking about getting that eyeshadow it’s just so pretty 😍

[@cherisenunez2530]

Oh, and that shirt!!!!! That color and style looks so gorgeous on you!!!!

[@lizashley4209]

[@denisemcclain6816]

Nude Glow is one of my all time favorites! I love that you can use it year round, my second fav is one that you recommended Dusty Rose, I love it for spring/summer!

[@TheRbarron]

This is such a great video. Lately I've been asking myself why I'm still bothering with high end makeup at all. Drugstore has really stepped it up.

[@womanofacertainage5892]

Drugstore makeup I use EVERY single day: Pixi peach corrector (for that dark area in the inner corner of eyes), No 7 Lift & Luminate Concealer, No 7 Lift & Luminate powder in light, to set the under eye, Elf Wow Brow for brows, CoverGirl Super Sizer Waterproof mascara (it's the only one that holds the curl in my lashes!).

[@heathersargent289]

I love the number 7 lift and luminate pressed powder it's my favorite powder ever I'm super picky , it's getting harder to find now . I haven't tried the concealer or the protect and perfect foundation yet I heard that was really good to.

[@sydneyhamlin4351]

What a fun video! Would love to see another one with different products! Or a high end version!

[@tinashort9098]

I really love the L’Oréal perfecting base!!! I’ve used it for years and it’s so good on my mature wrinkly skin!!! Love this video!!!!

[@tabithak5943]

Would you say it’s similar to the tarte timeless smoothing primer or tatcha silk canvas protective primer?

The Full and Soft waterproof is my holy grail mascara! It just always looks so nice on my lashes. It gets better as it dries out.

[@AllTimeKira]

This has been my holy grail for my hard to curl lashes for YEARS! Since Ingrid Nilson shared it in a faves video probably like 7 years ago!!

[@jann3443]

Everything looked so pretty on you. Loved looking at the top of your head when you were searching for a brush! 🤣🤣🤣 I want to tell you that last night I watched an 8 or 9 year old video of you and Tyler at Disney. Your skipping and singing and acting so carefree brought such joy to my heart. Your videography is SO much better now, quality and sound. It's all so much more perfected & sophisticated today! 👍🏻💕

[@womanofacertainage5892]

I love watching their older videos from time to time. Go watch their engagement video sometime, if you haven't seen it. Jess is adorable, and she sounds about 12 years old, her voice was so much higher and thinner back then (not a bad thing, just a thing!) It's been a privilege and so fun to watch her (and Tyler) grow and mature before our eyes, get married, become parents, run successful businesses, and everything else! I just adore them -- it's a weird thing because they don't really know me, but we know them! (the parts they show online, of course). Jess has mentioned/mused about thinking about becoming a therapist someday, and she would be AMAZING at it (you would, Jessica!!!), but I'd miss the videos if they stopped them. :)

[@coreyplumley5268]

I recently watched their engagement vlog again and it’s crazy to see then vs now and how much their family has grown!!!

[@jann3443]

​@@womanofacertainage5892 I watched both the engagement and wedding vlogs/videos. Even though it was only 8/9 years ago, Jessica and Tyler looked like teenagers. Even their voices sounded young. They're truly a joy to watch! They bring back my own youth when watching and I'm sure I'm older than Benita. I want to be her sister. I could babysit Gigi and Felicity with Blue Nana! Simply put, they're just a fun, fun beautiful family! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@jr-pr9lw]

My trick for lower lash line is that I use a clean spoolie to separate my lashes after mascara, then I use the small amount that's on the spookie to apply the lightest amount of mascara on lower lashes- and only one coat. Always the perfect, subtle amount. I think the full amount straight out of the tube is just too much and gives that Twiggy look!

[@kiraschwartz563]

Agree on the easy everyday eyeshadow and makeup. Still love playing with color and new palettes, but eyes look amazing when I just use a bronzer for the crease and a highlighter (I have the ofra quad pan and use the shade similar to the Maybellien one you tried today).
