VLOG | Cleaning Out My Closet, Getting Fun Nails + Hanging w Brook

[@shelbyrios3631]

I honestly really love the more "zoomed in" camera for vlogs, it feels like we're on facetime, and makes watching the video more personal... also, seeing Michel get so so excited about her nails was absolutely heartwarming!!

[@evaowens1400]

Agree to all of it!

[@plushieangela]

agree too! her appearance is a part of her job and her presentation, is nice seeing her smile about it

[@MichelJanse]

Y’all are the sweetest, my heart 🥺🤍

[@janaebooth9711]

I definitely think that the steady cam makes a difference for sure :) Also maybe that tree is an apricot tree?

[@liramalea7041]

I agree to both :)

[@MichelJanse]

Oh I think you might be right!!😍😍

[@gzk88]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@gzk88]

I wanted to jump through the screen and give you a hug when you were talking about your nails and worrying about making someone else uncomfortable. Girl, you need to feel comfortable too and if getting your nails done once in a while makes you feel better, then you shouldn't feel guilty. Just be sure to have them professionally removed too. 💚🌿

[@AutumnRichter]

I LOVE your cheat for making a nice flower arrangement by taping off sections. Genius idea...I'm totally stealing that.

[@hlspang]

Awww Michel! You are one of the sweetest humans. Sooo happy you got your nails done! You deserve it! 💕

[@LifeWithElyse]

I completely understand feeling embarrassed about the nail salon making assumptions about your nails. I have a similar issue, feeling like I have to explain myself... I like the color and design. I think is good to pamper ourselves once in a while. Great vlog :)

[@DaniGreyHare]

Michel, I am so glad you got your nails done! Sometimes we have to do the little things that bring warmth into our hearts!

[@nanda.cmartins]

I always watch youtube videos on 1.75x or 2x speed, so I enjoyed the camera setting that was more stable. The other one felt very shaky, and I had to reduce the speed to normal, which makes me feel like I'm watching it in slow motion. 🙁🙁

[@MichelJanse]

Oh good to know! I didn’t know so many people watched at increased speeds, I’ve never done that before because I don’t want a vlog to be over!😂😂😂😂 maybe I’m the weird one hahahahah!

[@nanda.cmartins]

@@MichelJanse That's the reason your vlogs are the only videos I watch on 1.75x speed. 😂 I don't want them to be over. Every other video is automatically on 2x. 😂😂

[@MichelJanse]

@@nanda.cmartins HAHAHA! I’m HONORED!🥰🥰🥰

[@bethj465]

This camera quality is amazing! Love it!! To someone watching at normal speed I liked it without stable not as close up

[@meagancrowson2959]

The more stable setting is a lot easier to watch!

[@elecops9825]

It might be a niche subject but I love hearing about jewellery, especially earrings. I love learning about new brands, seeing how different people style them and stack them 😊 Jewellery is one of those things that I get so excited about too! There's nothing wrong with being excited about the little things 😊

[@jessicapienaar4170]

So excited for this video😍😍😍, I actually prefer the stabilized option for the camera BTW ❤ I also loved the background in your bedroom when you mentioned Jessica🥰

[@MichelJanse]

You are SO SWEET! Thank you for the feedback!🥰

[@joannbaca153]

Don't feel guilty, Michel. You work hard and it's been a heckuva year for you! And It's not like you do it on a regular basis. Your nails look so pretty! Have a great week! 🌹

[@isabelbeaver2906]

the sound Max made while yall were tasting the coffee made my whole day :)

[@kirstykin8260]

It's so fun to watch and do clean outs and your nails looked super cute dont feel guilty it's your job we need to see and appreciate things xx

[@dixiekildoo3549]

Peach green tea is MY FAVORITE summer drink

[@marinelaroman5672]

You deserve to pamper yourself. Don’t feel guilty, thanks for sharing.

[@SavvyQuirkTarotandAstrology]

I love that you treated yourself to the nails and got over being self conscious abt them. It's Taurus Season, nothing wrong with indulging and enjoying yourself a bit!✨💜😉

[@herizkarahmadinni4984]

Hi Michel! Indonesian subs here, this is totally unrelated, but right now I'm taking a vacation staying at my parent's house. And my favorite entertainment while staying in is watching your contents! I found your videos so soothing and fun at the same time, I love the way you share your daily productivity and somehow it just makes me happy to watch it 😅 thank you for consistently posting videos and putting all the effort and hardwork! Stay safe and healthy 💕

[@victoriaamira5390]

Holy moly, that focussing is a game changer when showing things close up to the camera!!!

[@meleahg3382]

I'm guessing apricot tree, but I couldn't see the leaves well enough 😊

[@MichelJanse]

I’d be so excited to have apricots!!!!

[@amtulshafi99]

I just saw your comment after commenting my own (same) thoughts

[@shayl3018]

Starbucks - iced green tea with passion tea added - no liquid cane sugar - no added sugar at all but light and summery! It was my go to for my grad school years as a barista

[@kathya9522]

I like the steady cam! Your nails are so pretty! Worth it!

[@Lantie15]

So lucky! That’s an apricot tree 😍 also, loved the new cam! ✌🏻

[@erikastjarnfelt5455]

oh, that makes sense, i guessed plum :-)

[@shalayawilt9501]

Your vlogs are literally my favorite videos

[@jelenakuzmanov300]

That apricot tree is precious!

[@dksherin1]

Either peach or plum. Do a garden! It is so much fun and healing.

[@HowToHustleHappier]

I just started listening to your podcasts michel and they are so fun, but also informative! Brook talks so much more than in the videos, I had no idea!

[@MichelJanse]

He feels so much more comfortable in podcast settings!😂🤍 thank you for listening to them🥰

[@kathleenhetherington8829]

Steady cam! Love all your posts from your new home, so fun!❤️😊🌼

[@MegaNerdification]

Maybe you could do a sponsorship with the container store or ikea to do that custom closet stuff!!

[@jeanetteoxo]

I'm excited to really find out what your tree is growing lol. Great vlog as always michel. 🤍

[@anitalee3655]

I prefer the stable, close camera setting. Less distracting. Of course, I'll watch either.😊

[@plushieangela]

oo this camera makes your skin looks so smooth and blurred. I mean, your skin looked amazing before but it looks beyond flawless now

[@rnjedilaura]

I have found a trick to help thin out your wardrobe. Hang all the clothes on hangers backwards so hangers are harder to take off the rack and then if you wear something hang it back in the closet the correct way. Then set a time frame....6 months for example and any clothes that are still hanging the backwards way are clothes you should donate, sell. If you haven't worn it in 6 months with some exemptions like outerwear or formal dresses you are not likely to wear it anymoreq

[@laceegassman]

I literally feel the same way about getting my nails done and facials, but it’s always worth it! I’ve been debating getting my nails done for weeks, you make me feel like I should now😅

[@MichelJanse]

It’s like the weirdest combo of “I love that I did that” and “THAT COST WHAT?”😂

[@kimberlym746]

Steady is my fav

[@patmcmillan5061]

Love the shoes and I love steady focus.

[@racheldoxey8728]

Don’t feel guilty for beauty buys . Especially at the moment when these businesses really need us . Those are such pretty nails an do know how long you have been wanting nice nails ❤️

[@MichelJanse]

You’re so sweet, thank you!😭🤍

[@ashleighangela5004]

Your nails are beautiful! Aww don't feel bad about pampering yourself, you deserve it!! ❤

[@loriplate4241]

Michel, pulling off the nail stickers pulls the nails away from the skin below them. I realized this myself after continually pulling stick on nails off when they start to lift. When the edges loosen I can not leave it alone until I am yanking the rest of it off. Try always taking them off with remover and see if that helps.

[@beabopaloola9234]

It is an apricot tree

[@carap1533]

I think the camera is giving your face a bit of a blur, like a filter. Also, the stabilised makes quite a difference- use that one! :)

[@jennyreed3331]

Glad I'm not the only one who noticed that 😅 I was like "is there some sort of face tune filter on her face?" I also second using the stabilized mode!

[@MichelJanse]

Omg I just discovered that IS a setting that is auto set to “on” when you get the camera HAHAHHA! I figure out how to turn it off half way through next weekends vlog 🤪

[@macaroni459]

It's an apricot tree! :D

[@KelseyGibson]

I think the steady cam setting looks best ☺️

[@marthaivester7348]

Loved your nails really enjoyed

[@RG-yf3uj]

Looks like an apricot tree. Yummy for jam too 😋

[@missyj3728]

Always looking for a good coffee ☕ And happy to support your friend as well. I ordered the donut shop blend based on Brook's recommeddie

[@dominiquehorn5204]

I love this so much!!!!! I really need to go through my clothes because I still have some I've been holding onto since high school! lol I loved the new camera!! Also, you deserve to spoil yourself with nails every so often. I am the same way when it comes to spending money on myself. I usually take a week to decide or if I'm in the store I'll put the item back, but I have slowly been learning to treat myself every now and then.

[@numbertwochannel5011]

Now I remember I still need to do my laundry later haha! Gonna put me on some Foo Fighters and Delta Parole and then I will try my best. Thanks for the inspiring video!

[@brooklynclement6360]

I get too excited when I learn that I have something in common or can relate to Brook lol. I'm literally drinking donut shop coffee while watching this and it's my absolute favorite 💓

[@moniquehernandez6653]

Yay! Vlog💙💛🤍😊

[@craftlovingmommy8574]

I am the same way about spending money on pampering. I am glad you did it and it made you feel so good. They look beautiful.

[@maggieb3385]

I'm pretty sure the tree is an apricot tree, and the first looking bush tree could be a pear or quince tree so good if they are!😊

[@andreamclaughlin2052]

I HATE too much sweet in my drinks. Sometimes I just go unsweetened, but if you want a little sweet I also go for a Venti iced green tea with half of the sweetener (liquid cane-what comes in it).

[@cloecarbonneau6974]

The Adidas shoes are the dreaaaam 😍

[@elecops9825]

I don't really notice a difference between camera settings, to be honest. Both work perfectly fine 😊

[@pennyl4875]

Never feel guilty about taking care of yourself re: nail love! ❤️

[@stone.durfey5862]

Your the 3rd youtuber I've added to the top of my prayer list...and your all darlings. Love ya girl! You see I miss my nieces. They have all grown up and away...and we are no longer in touch...your one of my girls now...have sunshine day...your nails are lovely...and I love the second top.😊💙🌸🌸🌸🌞

[@loytoco]

I like the normal setting of the camera more than the zoomed in, but they both work. I also feel guilty when spending, but since last year I started spending more just for things I like, mostly make up. I have had a really overwhelming year (well, who hasn't?),and at the end of the day if things make us happy they are well worth the money.

[@sepps61]

thanks for sharing your life!

[@callagiallombardo]

I don't think.you really need to stabilize it. it looks great! and I love seeing the full picture

[@amazingvictory5224]

I loved more zoomed in camera. Omg i loved your nails looks so beautiful sis. God bless you both with happiness, always smile on your face and fulfill your dreams sis. Take care and be safe. Love you sis. 💖❤💖❤💖❤💖❤💖❤💖

[@laila.c.austin]

I like the stabilized zoomed in camera more.

[@lanyebarnick8410]

Michel on one of your vlogs I would love to see you buy an outfit for Brook and let him buy you an outfit then go have a date night out. I think that would be a cute video girlfriend! :) Have a fantastic weekend!

[@elecops9825]

That's a great idea! Or have Brook pick a theme for an outfit, and she has to thrift an outfit that matches, like beach day, watching baseball, elegant date night etc.

[@MichelJanse]

SUCH A CUTE IDEA!!!!

[@kacee_is_bored]

it is wayyyyyy more stable with the "super steady" on

[@2harmonica]

Steady is way better 😌

[@jennyreed3331]

I'm fairly certain it's an apricot tree! The branches look very similar to a peach tree but the main difference is the leaves.

[@alisasprain3571]

My brother gets the peach green tea refresher with out sweetener. He loves it. He says when the sweeter is added it is too sweet.

[@shelbyrose5407]

You should get the app Seek! You can scan plants (animals too) and it will tell you what species it is!

[@valeriejkelly]

Is the new camera the one you have listed in the description? Would love to check it out

[@umanayyar8646]

I think it might be an apricot tree!!

[@libbymorehouse4466]

I have the exact same french press! Well, technically two. One that I bought for my apartment in college that I'm moving with me to LA and one that lives at my parent's house

[@reutlevy8834]

AAaaannddd good for you ! love the nail art:)

[@elecops9825]

Here in the UK, there was a national shortage of oat products due to the blockage at Suez canal 😅 Maybe that's affecting the US too? Funnily enough, there was also a shortage of patio furniture for the same reason 😂

[@sarahwenger4479]

I know that Starbucks in the us implemented oat milk and then they quickly ran out so I think it also had an impact

[@krysten-paige9167]

Did my nails today as well . Yay!

[@plushieangela]

I've heard of handheld gimble's that can improve stabilization (not that the current movement is a bother). I'm not hugely techy but I know vloggers I've watched have mentioned them

[@erikastjarnfelt5455]

the fruits looks like plums, have the tree blossomed before they got leaves ?

[@haileyclare2781]

Apricot tree!!!!

[@lisagvojich3139]

I dont know if this is an apricot tree, but I'm sure it's not a peach. I have a peach tree and the leaves look nothing like mine

[@haileyclare2781]

@@lisagvojich3139 it is defiantly an apricot tree my friend has one and they look identical! My grandma also had one that’s why apricots are my favorite :)

[@fei7245]

It looks like an almond tree to me!

[@amtulshafi99]

I think that's apricot. The tree. And its so cute

[@CiTalMe]

Apricot

[@rosalygarcia4131]

Love the earrings

[@missabeth7986]

your fruit tree reminds me of my Fig Bush I used to have in my backyard

[@elecops9825]

Max looks so cute and fluffy! Is he enjoying having a garden and (baby) grass to play in? 🐶 I'm curious, does he still only understand Spanish or has he learnt English commands in the time you've had him?

[@MichelJanse]

I think we have him fluent in English now!😂👏🏻

[@yarabecerra2969]

I like the steady video, but of course whatever works fo you :)

[@HowToHustleHappier]

you could use either stabilization setting, I'd watch no matter what:)

[@Ashleey18]

When ever I feel demotivated I watch your videos..Love from India..😍😍❤

[@marlenewalker9515]

I love your nails sweetie!! Once in a while we have to treat ourselves, so don't feel guilty. I like both veiws when you film, so it don't bother me one way or the other.

[@rebeccarichmond1443]

I ordered from your friend. I was going for the donut shop coffee because Brook made it sound so good...but then I saw they have one with extra caffeine and I literally started talking out loud to myself about how excited that made me. So that's what I ordered. I'll let you know how it's good. Hopefully by typing a comment 25x faster than this one.

[@KELLSEY444]

Apricot tree!

[@unapologeticallyromel7096]

Best vlogger ❤

[@mandygee7207]

1/2 passion fruit tea and 1/2 green tea is my favorite Starbucks drink and it's not sweet at all

[@Rain_n.n_]

Yay vlog yay nails 👏👏

[@tarynyaki]

Maybe a plum or an apricot?

[@melissataylor1926]

Apricot tree! :)

[@Travelbyailsa]

I don’t understand why in America people don’t have electric kettles as often! They are so much easier and quicker!! And stove top kettles are just not really a thing in the uk!

[@LifeinLithuania]

i think people in america just don't drink tea often enough to have electric kettles and instant coffee is also not popular 😊

[@Travelbyailsa]

@@LifeinLithuania I mean I don’t even use it for that personally but mostly for pre boiling water for pasta/veg etc. Because it’s so much faster, hot chocolate and also other types of teas like green tea, camomile tea. And I’m sure an electric kettle isn’t more expensive than a stove top kettle? I got mine for about £5

[@swhistler7648]

Rumor has it that Starbucks is going to start using Oatly Oatmilk and so local coffee shops have been buying it from the store since wholesale is on back order and it’s been creating a shortage in the stores.

[@kathryndunne4504]

I got my first pair of Ana Luisa earrings about a month ago and I now have a new favourite pair of earrings! Now I’m debating if piercing every inch of each ear is overkill 😂

[@isawthesign4421]

What camera did you get? I have the Canon g7x iii and the auto focus SUCKS! I'm looking for something better to use.

[@lochnessmonster5539]

The camera is fine but I feel like it’s blurring your skin a lot, like there is a filter on it.

[@ashleighangela5004]

I noticed that too!

[@MichelJanse]

I just discovered it’s a setting that is automatically on when you buy the camera HOW WEIRD HAHAHAH! I figured out how to turn it off half way through next week’s vlog 😂
