BEST OF BEAUTY 2017 | ttsandra

[@emic138]

I love that we can tell that you two are genuine friends, and not overly giggly and silly like other YTers try to be to try to convince us that they like each other. You two are watchable and reliable. :)

[@ttsandra]

I really appreciate that! we’ve been friends for many years and it’s so much fun to chat about makeup and share the same passion for it. The extra shot of espresso certainly didn’t help my giddyness haha I was so excited.

[@emic138]

ttsandra you were excited but not obnoxious. :) and not shouting over or cutting each other off, like...ahem...others out there. ;)

[@jeanettesaldivar486]

You ladies never disappoint with your “Best of” videos!! Sandra, I love your style and skin care advice so keep that topic coming in the New Year. You have a way with words that really helps define the product. And I also vote for Dena to start her own channel! I love her makeup and outfit choices. She definitely brings something fresh and edgy to KZbin. Happy New Year ladies!

[@Ktealove]

I'm so glad Dena mentioned Native! I had the same issue with traditional deodorants and Native has given me peace of mind and confidence! It is awesome, ladies!

[@arashka100]

YESSSS DENA IS BACK

[@freckledklutz]

Yay for more videos with Dena you guys are so fun to watch!

[@suzifrancophone]

Twins of doom! Lol that made me laugh. As someone who LIVES in black, I appreciate your grey pop of colour

[@Tina_Anton]

Yay!!!! It's become a bit of a tradition watching you guys every year doing this video!!!! :) Off to hit play and keep notes! :) xxx

[@urszula2169]

I love love love you and Dena together. I hope I won't have to wait the whole year for the next video :)

[@asdabir]

[@ΑΣΗΜΙΝΑΚΑΡΑΜΠΑΣΗ]

Best video every year!!!❤❤❤💞💞💞💞😍😍😍😍😙😙😙😙

[@LittleMissGowk]

Really loved this, you and Dena have the best recommendations and love the way you bounce off each other. Thanks for linking to her blog and Instagram, I will be following those. Also appreciated the reference to Koren from EnKore makeup - one of the first KZbinrs I ever watched! Happy New Year!

[@TheSayaV]

Love this- every year! And also love that Radiohead touch at the end. Happy New Year in advance to you both! x

[@tamarabotha6584]

Couldn't agree more! Ladies you are so relatable! Love your approach and eloquent views and explanations. Just gives this beauty junkie a better view on what will suit xx

[@CNGOO]

[@selmizabeqa4406]

Your recommendations never disappoint! We have similar skin types and every recommendation from you has worked for me. Thank you Sandra x

[@MissEllolisoss]

Omg, Enkore makeup was my fav, blend blend blend 😌👌

[@RangerMommy]

Yes! Encore.....he was amazing. Blend....blend....blend!

[@moonykmi]

I wait for this video all year lol. Also great song at the end, radiohead is my jam

[@il_ms]

Loved this video Sandra! I miss your fashion and style videos since you have such a classic way of dressing. I would love to see a haul if it's something you would consider doing, or even a wardrobe tour! ❤️

[@ttsandra]

most of my fashion content is on Instagram since it’s easier for me to do photos - but other than a couple of sweaters I haven’t really hauled anything! trying to be good :) once it stops being -20 outside and I don’t look like a snowman leaving the house I would love to do more style content on here!

[@miriamdias]

Always my favourite video of the year! Thanks x

Happy New Year!! Love when you ladies are together! Sandra, I've been using Santal 33 on my bed linens forever too! Just love my fresh sheets when using this! Seems so luxurious! xoxo Michelle

[@ghc26]

Thanks for the video, happy to hear you’ll be doing more together! 💕

[@discopogo314]

It must be so nice to have a best friend who’s also into beauty. Love it when you and Dana do videos together. Bergamote 22 from Le Labo is a gorgeous citrus/orange blossom/musk scent. You have to try it!

[@ttsandra]

YUM

[@broadcastneo5289]

In the 70’s ysl eyeshadows was the thing ! Was famous for the metallics glittery shadows

[@ttsandra]

Oooh those glitters!! I think they tried to bring them back. I recently got an eyeshadow palette from them and was SO disappointed by it :(

[@lizalaska5084]

The two of you together are pure magic. I so very much enjoy your chemistry. I always buy something after watching. The CR blonde conditioner is now on my wishlist. And the Este Lauder mascara primer. Xx

[@RangerMommy]

I'm so glad someone else remembers the early YT beauty gurus like Korenne (sp?) Love when you both do videos.

[@ttsandra]

He was so sweet! He taught me how to depot my MAC eyeshadow haha

[@RangerMommy]

Oh yes he did!

[@victoria1936]

loved this as always!! so many great products to look in to. hope you've had a great holiday season!

[@ttsandra]

same to you ❤️❤️❤️

[@starbluewhitered]

Like the starts says YAY 😊 I love this videos and always fun to see you two together

[@LuckyNumb3r7]

Love this annual best of beauty!!

[@ttsandra]

Thanks for watching !

[@ChristinaLovesSushi]

I love your annual best of beauty vids!! Sandra, can you please do a makeup collection& storage video??:)

[@ttsandra]

I actually really dislike my current setup. It’s a mess 😐 I am working on downsizing in the new year since I have to move, and once I move I am planning on doing a video on it ❤️

[@weekendermb8436]

Loved this! I always trust your recommendations (and Dena's!) :) Hope you had a great Christmas!

[@ttsandra]

❤️❤️❤️

[@julyjenny]

I need to def work on using up my foundations. The YSL all hours is the last one I purchased. I used it the other day and it lasted so well on me.

[@markjoefer]

Amazing one! Thanks for sharing this valuable info! It's so great to see this video and I can't wait to create mine one day! Hope you have a wonderful day and keep it up!

[@christinasurgent2817]

Loved this! You guys work together so well! I just found out about the Le Labo detergent yesterday and now I’m so tempted. Haha!

[@ttsandra]

It’s the most indulgent thing ever but every time I use it on my bed linens, it feels like I’m staying at a fancy hotel or something haha

[@christinasurgent2817]

ttsandra ugh it’s the small things in life that make the biggest difference!! ❤️ merry Christmas and happy new year, draga!

[@ttsandra]

and same to you, la multi ani!!

[@janelidzekate]

you were both very nice girls!!! happy holidays

[@dorotap794]

Loved the video, it was very nice and entertaining to watch. It's funny how exactly differently I use the Nars concealer, I love it under the eyes, hate it on blemishes:D Best to you guys in the upcoming year!:)

[@ttsandra]

I will have to experiment more with it under the eyes! perhaps if I prime with more moisturizer it will go on better. Do you use eye cream underneath / do you apply it with fingers? TEACH ME YOUR WAYS!! xx

[@dorotap794]

ttsandra Haha, the way I do it is apply it on top of eye cream (I use Bio2you one, not too thin, not too thick), then apply the tiniest amount with my finger and pat it on gently:) I don't really set it a lot with powder, maybe a little bit of powder gets there while swiping over the entire face, but I find it kind of sets on its own:)

[@happywithcs]

I was looking forward to this before I finish shopping for new products! I trust your recommendations. Oh I was meaning to throw away the mascara primer which I didn't even open. Now I'm glad I can try it:)

[@ttsandra]

Yes yes yes please try it. I hope you like it

[@BeatriceTalamona]

Yay! My favorite part of a year end is your video together!!! I love how you both focused on finishing products and pairing down your collection this year, I've been doing the same with the help of project pan (who is still missing lollipop26 on YT?) Anyways loved this video so much! Happy holidays!!

[@ttsandra]

Project pan is so good. I want to do it in the new year

[@missyabsurd]

Love your annual videos 🙂

[@Veecollette]

Please please please give stila huge lash extreme mascara a try in 2018!!! (If you haven't, yet) 👌👌👌

[@pinkabuki]

I tried the YSL all hours but had no match really for nc-15, so I returned it.

[@ttsandra]

Yeah the color selection is NO BUENO on both the fair and deep skin tone spectrum 😐 I’m sticking to it for summer time.

[@MsPeasandhoney13]

Yes!!!! Love you two together! Xx annie

[@ttsandra]

Thanks for watching Annie!!

[@KhaNguyen-qs2dq]

FYI YSL foundation has the CLEANEST cosdna rating. It won't break you out. It's the only foundation that hasn't broken me out yet. It does contain alcohol so make sure to moisturize well before using

[@ttsandra]

Yay I’m glad it works for you too! I haven’t had any issues with it either but some have reported concerns with the fragrance and I know it can trigger some people’s acne ⛔️

[@annaozola5689]

Ok, I'm not ingredient specialist, but this maybe encourage me to use it anyway.. I bought it, used some two times, liked it (not my favourite but on top list) and then i saw Brianas Stanko video, where she made all video only about this foundation. Since then i stopped to use it. To make it short - alcohol and fragnance yes, but not only. As i understand the quality of ingredients was less than drugstore staff. At the end i was angry at ysl as a brand, because its not cheap and i always say that i prefer high end make up basically because it hopefully have better ingredients inside.

[@KhaNguyen-qs2dq]

anna ozola yea. I mean if you have oily skin alcohol isnt as “bad”. I just put a lot of moisturizer before applying to “tone” alcohol down. If you check other brands, theyd have tocopherol (vitamin e). That shit breaks me out. Best example is tarte shape tape. I use it on my forehead and nose and it break me out. I never get acne in those areas. Lol I use ysl concealer instead and it hasnt done anything. Sometime I put it on go to the gym then go to work (without washing my face cause of laziness) and it stays all day and dont break me out. So it all comes down to your preference. If you have dry skin, stay away from alcohol. Normal and combo or oily, make sure to moisturize well to “protect” ur skin. I have extremely oily acne probe skin so I choose not to have break out lol

[@paranoiadance]

Faves!!!

[@Claire.Sophie]

Great video! So cute :) going to get on the naked heat bandwagon soon 🤗

[@ag6234]

Dena, please please start a KZbin channel! I think you have Imelda impecable taste.

[@Cozyrosy1]

you're too cute, you two! btw it's Lah-leek, and very famous for their glass work (-;

[@ttsandra]

thank you!!

[@TheLoveWithYing]

What do you do when your Burberry eye color cream became dry?

[@ttsandra]

hmmm to me they’ve always been dry, I just apply them with a fluffy brush and I get a good colour deposit. if I try to use a flat brush or my finger it doesn’t work as well

[@broadcastneo5289]

From how you describe the glossier cleanser,I’m thinking it’s like the cetaphil one

[@ttsandra]

Yeah! I also find it similar to the CeraVe hydrating cleanser but there’s just something about it that makes me prefer it. Maybe it’s the stickers 😂

[@Suzette255]

Amazing video!!! Thanks girls! :)

[@ttsandra]

thank YOU for watching!

[@suzysnowflake33]

Thumb up for dena! She is so French

[@ttsandra]

she’s the best

[@Beauty_bydeborah]

The native deodorant is the best natural deodorant I tried! However, it turned my under arms BLACK! Like really dark :( then I had to stop using it. They said I have to use vinegar for a few days and see if it gets better, but I gave up on it and my armpits went back to normal.

[@ttsandra]

Oh no!! Were you allergic to the baking soda in it?? I read that lots of these natural deodorants cause reactions due to the baking soda. That’s scary. I’m glad it went away after you stopped using it!!

[@Beauty_bydeborah]

Yes!! I think it was the baking soda. However I found that "natural" deodorants without baking soda dont work well at all! It's like putting body lotion under your arms, it's really terrible lol

[@ttsandra]

Lol that’s how I felt with the Lavanilla!! it was like it melted into an oil and felt so so uncomfortable ☠️☠️

[@Beauty_bydeborah]

omg I HATED Lavanilla!!!!!! It was the worst. Have you tried the meow meow tweet? I tried it and it gave me painful nodules, I couldnt move my arms for 10 days. On the other hand, my aunt tried it and has been using it with no problem. I feel like I'm very sensitive to deodorants, but I dont have any sensitive skin, it's only deodorants.

[@jordansamuelskin3550]

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU 🖤✨🖤

[@ttsandra]

I ❤️ U

[@melissa63881]

❤️❤️❤️

[@jenGeeJushawshee]

YEAH!! Always great to see this episode with you and Dena!! Sandra, I bet if you stopped using so many fragranced products you would see a total eradication of your acne. You look fantastic, btw! 💕❤️💕 xx, Jennifer

[@ttsandra]

Thanks so much Jennifer!! ❤️ I have gone through phases where I haven’t used fragranced products for many months but sadly my acne is hormonal so fragrance doesn’t make much of a difference. I wish it was that easy! My nose is pickier than my skin haha

[@jenGeeJushawshee]

ttsandra Yeah, I thought about your age after posting that....but fragrance is still a common offender in many skin skin conditions, I went from being SUPER oily (tolerating *anything*) to now being dry with contact dermatitis and sensitive skin 20 years later. Something I thought would never happen! Thankfully my husband is a dermatologist.

[@ttsandra]

haha oh man I bet!! even now when I get the occasional dry skin day I am totally thrown for a loop, after being used to oiliness for so many years.

[@Amy-oc2ui]

I am glad that deodorant works for you guys. I've tried Native and it honest to goodness makes me smell like a Native, discovered on an island not yet discovered by modern society. I am some kind of freak. I think my pits are determined to smell like dank pits. I so wish I could find something that would really work for me. Every time I give it a good long shot, I give up within 2 weeks and decide I am just going to use Dove and not stink for the rest of my possibly very short life due to wearing Aluminum filled deodorant.

[@ttsandra]

😂😂😂 I feel you, I switch back and forth depending on the level of knitwear I am wearing and the season. Sometimes I can get by with the Native, other times I have to bust out the chemicals ☠️ I heard the Agent Nateur deodorant is decent, will probably give that one a try soon too.

[@Amy-oc2ui]

Thank you for the suggestion! I might look that one up too. I am kind of glad I'm not the only one who breaks through that deodorant. Haha! I guess misery does love some company, and so does B. O. Maybe someday we will find a consistently good one. Until then...I'll keeping a stick of Dove on hand. I absolutely love your videos. Thank you for your honest reviews. I love that your channel always feels relaxed and fun. I am recovering from a lumbar fusion at the moment and it makes me appreciate great video's to enjoy. So thank you so much! Huge hugs!

[@Diva2themax]

Wash your pits with Hibiclens. It kills the odor causing bacteria so you can use whatever you want.

[@Amy-oc2ui]

Diva2themax That's a good idea also. I've used that before surgery. I might give that a shot. Thanks for the idea!

[@ivychickering4473]

did u stick yur finger in a electrical socket😂😂 im kidding im kidding ily

[@ttsandra]

yes! I decided to plug myself in like a Christmas tree ☠️🌝

[@asdabir]

lol tbh i kind of like that look
