[@jennifermajor5013]

The reasons we love Gemma are limitless; however, A) saying “kicked ass” multiple times and B) feeling “hot”, busting out a fan & NOT editing that out…perfection ❤ Merry Christmas

I found that if you don't remove the sticky film over the and only poke a few hole 3 or 4 at most. And also keep a puff in the jar over the holes keeps ti from spilling out.

[@juliagriffiths8550]

Great vid Gemma. I'm pleased to say I have several of these products already (down to previous videos of yours). Enjoy your break, and see you next year. x

[@janiehowington7622]

Always enjoy your videos. I hope the holidays are blessed & beautiful for you and your family!

[@rhondagoodman9993]

Merry Christmas and happy new year to you and your family.

[@karlaharvey2623]

I love, love No7 lift Foundation, I will be going to Walgreens and pick up a few of these amazing makeup products. Thank you Gemma. Are you going to be doing any skincare videos?

[@jennyladen]

Fab video Gemma love to see affordable products, I know some people live high end makeup/skincare, but I over the years have actually preferred many budget priced brands, and I’ve tried them all, I just think that nowadays budget products have really upped their game, and can give some of the high end brands a definite run for their money!

[@MartinaMcDonagh]

Totally agree, great video. You always give great detail on the pros & cons of products you try! Love ELF products, haven't tried one yet that I didn't like.. Looking forward to the rest of the series... 😄😄😄

[@hbarlaam]

Love the Maybelline lifter liner!

[@ladyb3860]

[@cupofsugar]

Happy Christmas to you Gemma, your lovely mum and to your family. Wishing that all your dreams come true in 2025. That you for all your hard work & lovely videos.

[@bbmVir416]

"Let's go crazy and live life on the edge" love it 😂 I love how entertaining your videos are. Hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas!

[@rowanmcnay]

Great recommendations as always. I bought the Elf eyebrow laminator when you first recommended it. Onto my second one and I rarely go for the same thing twice - amazing. Great recommendation! Please include more Vieve next year. Would love to hear your views on the complexion balm.

[@keepfitgirl8191]

Thanks for all your best of '24 videos. Hope you have a lovely Christmas and New Year. Emma x

[@pamcollins1651]

I adore the ELF soft glam foundation ❤ It’s blown the Fenty blurring one and the Merit stick foundations out of the water (in my opinion). However Gemma I bought no. 13 neutral but I’ve noticed you have 21 neutral and as I always appear to be your complexion twin I’m wondering if I should try it? The 13 neutral does appear to be slightly yellowish for me (but I can make it work).

[@julieedwards6937]

Love the affordable videos

[@SarahElder-tk6ht]

Happy Christmas 🎄 ❤

[@janeclarke5275]

Great Gemma as always I used to watch a lot of people now only you and Emily I like real skin especially your mum as I'm 66 she's filler Botox and surgical free so rare to age well help with gadgets you review with is great some of us ladies on a budget can't afford a lot love u do affordable happy Christmas to your lovely family xx

I have just bought the elf liquid blush in pinky promise and I love it x

[@JanetDAVIS-kx4zu]

Happy christmas Gemma look forward to seeing next years video s ❤❤🎉🎉

[@karenbyrne7597]

Elf foundation great. I’m finding elf lipstick good dupe for nars audacious. Elf blush brill. Don’t feel bad for using these everyday where as I felt indulgent using Nars products just for going to supermarket in.

[@julielepage1315]

The pro artist no 7 soft glam bronzer is beautiful.

[@evamuhlhause]

Happy Holidays and a very Prosperous New Year to you and yours.

[@PamperedWolf]

@@evamuhlhause same to you Eva xx

[@deborahholden2825]

Lovely video again Gemma I purchased the elf soft glow after both you and your mum raved about it and it’s lovely. As an older person (61) I’m always looking for something that sits nicely on my skin and I was wondering if either you or your mum has tried the baked foundations from Laura Geller? X

[@lynndupree1205]

I know sunscreen isnt technically makeup BUT Supergoop sunscreen is really identical to a fine gripping primer! It slips on the skin like glycerin and has the loveliest feel. A little bit covers my whole face, and it performs beautifully as a primer under liquid foundation. Not goopy at all so why did Gwyneth Paltrow name it Supergoop? LOL😂 You just have try it. Prepare to fall in love.

[@claredyj2015]

Great video Gem, going to check out a few of the goodies included!! Have a great Christmas and new year! I have just got the Mac Glow Pay lip balm and Laura Mercier colour blush infusion and loving them!!! 🎉🎉

[@karenferrer1461]

Fantastic video Gemma ... Im definitely going to try alot of your recommendations ... Have a wonderful Christmas & thanks for all your hard work 🎄🎄🎄🌟🌟🌟❤️

[@elacampusano7341]

Thank you Gemma for your recommendations as always, I really like how you describe the products you are passionate about. I have a recommendation for next year, the Juicy Pang blushes from A'PIEU by k-beuty are beautiful. Have a lovely Christmas with your family and a happy new year 🥳🥰😘

[@christamulligan9816]

Yes

[@Artasun]

Love this video, one of my favourites, why? Because you pronounced arse correctly 🎉🎉😅 hurrah! Also why haven't you tried MUA eyeshadows? They are truly stupendous. Give any natasha denona a run for their money 😍🥰🥰

[@ScenesFromANightsDream]

Gemma has tested the MUA eyeshadows and was impressed and raved about them few months ago. They’re fab and so cheap too

[@PamperedWolf]

@@Artasun they were in my favourites video last year xxx

[@Artasun]

Oh gemma, thank you for replying and oops my bad! I remember now, didn't realise they were last year! Age thing? 😅

[@Artasun]

@@ScenesFromANightsDream you are quite right, my bad 🤭

[@salliefabulous1923]

No.7 fab

[@jilla8503]

Right why isn’t anyone talking about that Morphe foundation? It’s so good. I bought it right after it came out bc someone was raving abt it and I love it. I’m 47 so maybe it’s just more mature skin friendly?? Happy holidays ❤️🎄

[@jessabeauty917]

Morphe is basically cancelled for a massive misstep with their employees. People don’t want to support that company.

[@karenpage5674]

So my fails this year L’Oréal serum and true match , elf glow, morphe skin hint nuetrogena tm, and that cover girl bead one. I’m back to glossier and it’s $14 for skin tint 12/24/24 63 years old normal lines wrinkles skin.
