YOUR FAVORITE CREATORS ARE LYING TO YOU AND HERE ARE MY (UNFILTERED) THOUGHTS ON THAT …

[@kbotelho8976]

Sam, I just wanted to give you a big hug when you were talking about your robbery and sweet Aries.😔 I’m so glad you have your mom and such special friends in your life to help make this more bearable. ❤️

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

Thank you so much, that means a lot 💖

[@jennifertriesthat]

It's so special seeing your friendships with Katie & Ashley. I'm so happy you all have each other. Ashely does have great style. Her house is so nice.

[@tonyasullivan1164]

I love how real you always been

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

thank you so much 💓

[@TheStipplingWarrior]

Grief and trauma experienced, coupled with trying to keep things 'normal' is soooo real. Long story not as long- after my own experiences- I felt like I was a completely different person, and still am. I used to be a go getter, climb the ladder, keep up the home duties and raise my babies all at once, kind of gal. Then, all the grief and trauma caught up with me. And I sit with that, more now than I ever allowed myself to, because I felt I had to be 'strong' I ended up having this crisis, if you will- that changed me completely. I cherish life so much more, but at the same time- my drive went by the way side- and I had so much of my identity toed to that. Now, although I value and appreciate the gratitude I have gained, I don't feel like... myself? It is a struggle. And the grief and pain is still there, which sucks, lol. I don't k ow- does any of that make sense? That is the first time I have actually articulated that. Ever. Probably because it is so complicated to try and explain.

[@christeennone8361]

I can relate to this!!

[@katia_gabriella]

I've been going through similar feelings and reactions, you could say. I think we're just trying to figure out what makes us happy as we get older. We're entering new eras. It's okay to feel off for a while when figuring out new life paths and questioning our feelings. All of this is healthy. It's just when you feel stuck or worse that it's time for a psychiatrist or therapist. I hope you're not having to deal that, but if you are, I wish you the best ❤❤

[@makeupdatewithjacki8959]

​@@christeennone8361Me too!!

[@makeupdatewithjacki8959]

I resonate soooo much with what you said, and you seriously put words to how I feel that I've never been able to explain! Thank you for your honesty and for sharing that!

[@teresacapozzoli1822]

I absolutely loved the short with you and Ashley doing the faces and noises. I laughed so hard. I suffer from PTSD from a traumatic event 15 years ago. So from someone who knows I’m sending you lots of love and hugs❤

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

aw thank you!

[@nadiazanchetta1388]

My heart breaks hearing all your pain 💔 Ashley is an amazing angel 😇 sister being there for you! Its great that you are talking to someone that can be there for you 😊 Appreciate you! Dont appreciate when content creators are not truthful when filming with products more they trick you in the outcomes 😮

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

Thank you so much!

[@tonyasullivan1164]

It's not just a dog that was yours unconditionally loved every minute

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

❤️

[@jenadams2576]

I am so glad you have such good friends and you let them be a part of your life. It's good to be people in to share the good and the bad. I am sure Katie and Ashley are so thankful you trust them to be there for the good and the bad/difficult times. you are doing great and I love seeing and hearing about your friendships. ❤

[@lisaorr3977]

It's been 10 years since my fur baby passed away and I still miss her with all my heart and will reach for her occasionally. Her picture is still my wallpaper on my phone. She loved me unconditionally.

[@lisaorr3977]

Your loved ones get to share their love and love on you when you ask them for help. My mom feels useful and that she has a purpose when I let her help me because she could love on me. Acts of love is a love language.

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

aw i totally understand ❤️

[@Sera-R]

You are such a sweet genuine person. Thank you for always being so sincere and authentic. Love your videos!

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it 💖

[@cyntheknitter9927]

You are so blessed to have a circle of friends to support you and who you support as well. Please embrace this time in your life. Also, there is no "getting back" to who you used to be, as that's not working anymore. There is only becoming more of who you're meant to be. Sending love❤❤❤

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

thats such a good point, thank you ❤️

[@jessieb93855]

Also incredible quality on this video! It was so clear and you can actually see your skin and makeup!! Love being able to see how beautiful those eyeshadows are! Loved the whole thing!

[@CarynsChaos]

I absolutely appreciate your GRWM vids where you aren’t already mostly ready. I want the start to finish. It’s a you can’t win thing, though, with showing your apartment/home in the background, it’s either too messy or staged (I’ve seen the comments and there’s always comments about either way. I LOVE the realness. But I’m also older and have been a part of the marketing world so it’s easier not to get sucked in by the exaggeration so many influencers do.

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

thank you so much, I really appreciate it 💗

[@tonyarst2922]

Please never change Samantha!!!! We love you the way that you are. You have a huge heart and you are real.

[@gloriacalloway6908]

Love how you are real. I believe alot of creators are misrepresenting their lives. I feel your pain in losing your dog. It really hurts. You will get thru this, too. ❤

[@melissakirk8001]

I feel like the last few years have been really hard on all of us. I appreciate you being real. Makes me not feel so alone. Keep being you. Love you!

[@tdsollog]

I agree with you… your home should be safe. Everyone needs a safe space. I think it’s wonderful that you have friends who are there for you.

[@KCallia]

I regularly went and stayed at my friend's condo she bought with her boyfriend (and doggo!) after -gtfo- moving out for the first time in 2020. Being on my own at 26 was a difficult experience. My roommates worked remotely, so the apartment I moved in felt tense as I respectfully tried to unwind (my work was in clinic). They were understanding and sympathetic, but we weren't friends. I felt more "at home" at my friend Samantha's (goes by Mei, Samantha is her English name). Being able to see her and spend time with my fur-niece as Auntie Kelly was the support I clung to admist the covidi, facing the chaos as an essential worker and feeling like such a failure at "adulting." I felt like I "had to do it on my own" and quickly realized I couldn't; I, too, struggle to ask for help. You, your channel was, and continues to be, a support in my journey of life 💗💜

[@OkieMomma]

I watch you because I like you, your personality, your honesty, your vulnerability, & authenticity! Thank you for just being you! 💜 In my opinion, once a creator/person is dishonest...I'm done. I'm not wasting my time supporting someone that doesn't respect me/us enough to just be honest. Aries wasn't just a dog, she was your best friend, your companion...she was unconditional love! You grieve her loss however you want, and as long as it takes... nobody gets to tell you how to do it, when to do it, what is right or wrong, or how long! I just lost my sweet girl to cancer 3 mts ago. My heart is absolutely broken, and right now it feels like it'll never end... I understand your pain! 💜🙏

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

Thank you so much, that means a lot! 💖 and im so sorry sorry to hear that. the loss is so painful 💔

[@krissigray4738]

I feel like I’m certainly guilty of watching videos that show an “unrealistic” type of life and sometimes it motivates me to do better and get my life that way but at the same time I LOVE the real creators like you that show what they’re really doing and the struggles. We may not be on the same path but I agree that I can pick up things here and there from anywhere that might help make my life easier/better. I think the overall takeaway is “take everything on the internet with a grain of salt” not everything is what it seems but you may still find a little gem that could help

[@jackivacha]

I’ve worked for the post office for 30 years. Recently I was offered an early retirement buy out. I’m pretty much thinking that I am going to accept it. There is a nice money bundle attached to it. And, I’m going to be 53 on March 7th. I’m scared to death but I definitely need the change! I will be able to do something I want to do. Definitely want to work at Ulta or Sephora. And, it’s time for me to start my own channel! When will I get this opportunity again? Probably never.

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

oh that's so exciting to think about a fun change!

[@katia_gabriella]

Yes! Go be free and happy!

[@Makeupry]

Do it! Create your channel! While I'm a bit younger than you, (I'll be 36 in a few weeks) I've been finding myself watching more creators who are older than me because I enjoy hearing about life lessons and different perspectives. I'm sure you have some wonderful stories and experiences to share!

[@ErinBarry]

I think it's wonderful you have such close friendships that they are like family to you. Everyone's support system looks different. I don't understand why people would have a problem with it. That says more about them than anything else. I hope you are having a great week so far!

[@awilson9256]

Love your eye look! I also love that you are open and real, it makes you so relatable. Which is a big reason why I enjoy watching your videos.

[@makeupdatewithjacki8959]

I just want to say that i love you, Sam, and I know so many of us do!! I'm so sorry for all that you have been through, especially these last few years. I truly believe that the strongest woman is one who can say, "Hey.... I'm not doing well, I need help!" Thank you for always being real and reminding us that we do not have to exist in this life alone!! We all have the ability to do so much more when we link arms with each other and walk through life together!!❤❤❤

[@AL-vo2uh]

Great discussion topic. Yes, influencers are lying. It's like when you tell dudes porn is lying to them. They don't fully realize what that means half the time. How you can have a fantasy that doesn't exactly work the same way in real life, at least not without so much more work than most people are willing/able to put in. Our desires can make us vulnerable. But I do agree that we share a bit of the responsibility since clicks and views perpetuate what we consume. (We created our own monster, lol.) I think part of growth is understanding what we have control over and what we don't. So, even though you are independent, you can't always control how your feelings will come out. You definitely can distract/put off feelings, but much to my dismay you cannot ignore them forever. They'll come out somehow... if you can't process them, you might end up with aches in your body or not treating yourself well in some other way. I think another thing the internet makes us vulnerable to is validation. You can find people to validate your feelings, but it is way way harder to find support to process those same feelings. Like you can explain how awful people online are until you're blue in the face, but it won't change quickly... only how you see/manage those comments will change (or not). IMO, of course. I think the validation problem can effect dating a lot too--- we get validation for all our bad experiences we've had, but very little advice on how to make the experience better regardless of other peoples bad habits/behavior. (I hope I am coming through clearly here, that I am talking about myself & my opinions and not trying to insult people who are stuck in very human pitfalls. I've watched aesthetic videos. I've had my feelings validated without changing my behavior/perspective, etc. Because other people are the problem!🤭😅) Also, I really like that eye/lip combo. The darker cool-toned brown has this sort of velvet depth. I think a light sky or turquoise blue would be nice on you.

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

I really appreciate your perspective on this, thank you for taking the time to share!!

[@katia_gabriella]

I love how you explained all of that. It's true!

[@kathleenangel8196]

So touched by the raw pain. So beautiful that your friends have rallied around you ❤

[@bonniehouston4885]

Love you so much! I am so grateful that you have Ashley and your other friends to help you. If the situation was reversed you would help them in a second. So don't feel bad or guilty. You met each other for a reason. You have such a huge heart. I love your realness and authenticity. Stay you. We are all here for it. 💜

[@brishae1839]

Just wanted to say that I thought this video was not only super entertaining ( I’m currently watching while I feed my newborn very early in the morning) but very thoughtful and well spoken. You are such an intelligent and strong woman. And even though I don’t know you in person I feel like you are super genuine. Someone I do trust in the online world.

[@Dragonflyathena]

Love you Sam. So thankful for this community. ❤

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

same here ❤️

[@kristygregory1483]

I don’t think I’ve ever related to you more. Wish I could give you massive hugs. I’m here crying with you hun. Sending so much love, strength, positive vibes your way. Xx

[@jennawar13]

I am so glad you have friends and loved ones who can support you! I hope over time you are able to find peace and security again ❤ I found the exposing yourself trend to be interesting. I think the silly ones are funny and maybe people overreacted, but the ones lying about their fitness/health I think could be career ending (as it would be in a non social media job too). I think they are giving the people what they want to see 🔥

[@m.c.8680]

Hi Sam, Im so sorry your going through this and can feel how thankful/greatful you are. IMO, one of the greatest gifts in life, is Unconditional Love and Epathy. ❤ =🗝 !! Im glad you have such loving friends, your truely blessed to have them. I wish you all the best in your healing journey. Much love, M.C. ❤🧚‍♀️🙏🏼 p.s. You are a STRONG WOMAN and always turn these things into a selfless, giving way to help Others !! I so love that about you !!🎉🏋‍♀️🎉💚🕊

[@jennifermarriott6581]

Sam, I totally understand why you are going through it don't listen to those nuckle-heads. I lost my soul dog a year ago without much warning. You are amazing! Having your house burglarized is so scary. You are supposed to lean on your friends its so hard. Just listen to your heart and forget the rest of it. People are so devoid of compassion. I think those people definitely are envious and don't do those things for themselves.I appreciate your honesty is best way to be!

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

aw im so sorry 😞 thank you for your understanding 💗

[@klinzer1]

People need people…period. No matter what anyone says people need people. I’m glad you’re learning not to be as hard on yourself. You’re an amazing go getter and a savvy businesswoman. You’re an inspiration to all and you should be proud of yourself. You’re amazing Samantha. Truly.

[@26laf]

I'm so sorry you were burglarized, I have been through that too and know how traumatic it is to have your personal space invaded. I didn't feel safe again until I adopted a German shepherd from the local shelter, and I have had German shepherds ever since then. Take care, and maybe a new dog to love would help heal both of your recent traumas.

[@annanderson2047]

In the words of P.T. Barnum, "You can fool all of the people some of the time and some of the people all of the time and that's enough to make a good living." This is, in my opinion, one of the best get ready with me's I have seen. You are authentic and sincere. Also, I love the eyes. You look amazing and make me think (in a good way.) Keep up the good work.

[@kristenreehil3196]

When my dog passed which this February will be five years without him, I completely lost it. I ended up coming home from the gym and got blurred vision and kept seeing his face thinking he was there. I was completely blank and broken hearted. My dog was my best friend even though he was the same exact dog as Marley and Me. He waited for me to get home from middle/high school -college. He was the neighborhood dog.

[@WildlyAmysBeautifulThings]

I am so guilty of the hyper independence as well. I really love that you have community that takes care of you that you feel safe to lean on. We should all have that in our lives.

[@Stefistat]

Makes me sad all the lying with social media. I appreciate your honesty all these years. I appreciate your authenticity. ❤ I have my small curated beautyKZbinrs I watch but I watch more DIY and home design because it’s calming and motivates me to create. I’ve been on TikTok of course but I’m not one for the nonstop selling of products and they love every product. Life is short I rather be outside with family and friends then scrolling TikTok. I too lost my dog to cancer weekend after a Thanksgiving. I continue to feel the sadness every day bc I work from home and I go to call her and she’s not here. I loved Aries as we all did here. Sending you wishes for a wonderful 2025. ❤

[@theredderthebetter1]

I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Your approach has always been based in honesty and I’ve watched your videos since the early years of your channel. Keep doing what makes you happy and in the way you feel good about. ❤

[@lesaseigler5365]

Gorgeous eyes💚💚💚. I appreciate your candor. Thank you for sharing❤

[@freckledklutz]

I like that you are you and don't have everything all perfectly curated your authenticity shines through :) Big hugs to you and as someone who doesn't do well asking for help I get it but we need people and its okay! You are right the way we view content means that creators want the engagement so your tiktok musings were interesting for me to hear.

[@tgknits]

Samantha, your true realness is why I watch!

[@jenbcrueltyfree]

12:41 omg I missed that TikTok influencer with the foundation but I definitely needed that today given recent events not gonna lie

[@pecopicante4167]

It's very violating to have someone break into your space and PTSD from grief and loss takes time to heal. It's okay for needing help and time and love to heal. You do whatever you need to do to help yourself as long as you're not hurting yourself. Sending you love ❤️

[@jenbcrueltyfree]

14:17 Okay, Okay TT refugee here 😂 so I’ve always been transparent in my content however I feel like this personally has made me feel the need to be more transparent and more thoughtful about the choices of brands that I’m using in my content because I feel this need now to make sure that their ethics are on point and their political views and contributions align more with what I’m trying to represent. I was raised on KZbin though and I was created by influencers like you and Some of the older generation where transparency and ethics were so much more important so I supposed that’s why TT has always made me feel somewhat out of place.

[@jenfarina1892]

I think that's nuts if people are saying you're leaning too heavily on your friends. They're your family. No one is complaining that someone is leaning too heavily on their husband or their mom. Like, who cares if you work from your friends home?

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

lol totally agree ❤️

[@dreamingmusicgal]

Sam, I truly believe with all the different types of things out there we have to pick wisely anymore and choose what we chose to believe and leave all the rest outside of it. Not to get political but it is all just like it is... you pick and choose what you want and you can fall for a gimmick or choose something that is truthful and educational maybe with a little humor thrown in. It's taken me many years watching YT to finally figure out the ones like you I know have a heart and cares about truth and dignity and not all about the dollar. I've stopped watching so many of the ones I watched faithfully because I slowly started to see truth and life leave the channel. I've watched alot of them give up their channels because others were seeing this shift and started leaving. I still have a few I watch but not like I used to. I would get so excited for that day and time X was going to post for it to not be shorter and more boring every week with so many cuts out you never would see a whole eye done and how it applied. I say all this to you... I stay here because from that first video of you... YES the red room and all your days of blushing about names of products you still are Samantha March just more mature and lots of sad but life lessons you my friend have taught so damn many of us. You might not have thought you were doing anything much but you were. As for all the noise behind the keyboard crazies we had you and tried to over power them. Never let any damn thing on here stop you from being the best Samantha you were and are today!!! #SamSquad Loads of Love💞

[@InternetUser7321]

I'm so sorry about Aries 😭 I used to watch ur videos years ago and I just got back into beauty KZbin recently and came back to ur channel, and that is such sad news :( I hope things get easier for u and it sounds like u have such a great support system of friends here for u

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

[@vernaholladay9829]

I found you when you first moved to Vegas. I've always loved how you've always been honest about your life. I can relate to you. Tik tok not I to it,it's just not me but I will never knock anyone downfor it. Firm believer if you e got nothing nice to say shut up. I laughed about the girl with all the foundation, every time I watched my thought was nooo all that foundation all that money going down the drain 😅, but I never once commented about it. Please keep being you and being real. ❤❤

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

Aw thank you so much, I really appreciate that! 💓

[@abhimac27]

At this point in my life, with the way things are, I will absolutely not tolerate that lying/gaslightly stuff anymore. I always thought it didn't matter, but now I've seen the effects it's made on our society. That's not what I meant/just kidding/it's just content...like nah. Not doing it. Take care, Sam! 💜 I'm glad you have such great friends, that's truly special. 💜

[@christinaalligood-thornton]

Samantha, hugs and love to you. I teared up; no, I cried with you. I lost my cat of 12 years last January. He was named Puppy, but unbeknownst to us, he was like a dog. He was brilliant and a beloved companion to me. He was healthy his whole life until his last days, and we discovered he had cancer. I miss him so much. I cherish our memories, though. He died on the Wolf Moon, and think of our memories on each full moon. I pray for your healing to continue.🤗🥰💋 Oh yeah, huge Mahomes and KC Chiefs fan here. 🏈❤️💛🩶🖤🏆🏆

[@MegAileen]

Girl, get some blue!! It's such a beautiful color to wear! I've been on the lookout for a soft fuzzy blue sweater 💙 I haven't been able to wear that color to work the last few years due to their dress code. I've recently changed jobs, so I'm excited that I can wear it again!

Hi Sam, hope you're having a great day. Let me just say I'm 68, love makeup and trust me Nobody wants to see me get ready. I brush my teeth take a shower wash my hair, it's a pixie so need to wash all the product out, then I sit down and do my makeup, naked that is, then my hair and then I get dressed, don't even know if I could put my makeup on fully dressed😂😂😂 just enjoy your friends and just do you, we are here for you❤❤😊

[@lalacarroll431]

Gosh Sam, I have so much to say about everything you spoke about in this video! I’ve been with you for years and this is one of the best videos I’ve watched and really relate to! I watch and love most of the content creators that have become your friends and some have become your best friends. You are and will always be my favorite content creator BUT person on KZbin and all social media platforms! You have always been a safe space and a place that I love ❤ also 99% of the #SamSquad has always been so supportive and kind when I’ve shared personal experiences and when you share personal experiences. There are those keyboard warriors that have left unnecessary and mean comments but before I say anything back I take a moment and remember that they most likely aren’t part of this really SPECIAL community ❤️ We have lived such similar lives and experienced so many things at the same time or a few months apart and you have always been so real, so honest, kind, mindful, genuine, and you have the biggest heart! You also have integrity and that’s what matters to me. I haven’t ever been a person who likes using the word “dog” they are family, they are as much as a human as us and when Aries was first diagnosed with cancer I lost it. I had just lost my boxer and the pain you were going through broke my heart. When you were going through your divorce, driving across the country to a new place to live, the robbery, moving apartments are all things that I’ve experienced and it made me feel so horrible for you because you are such an AMAZING PERSON! I have so much to say but I know my comments are long and not everyone loves that. I’m happy that you never changed your content to make it more of a “over the top unrealistic lifestyle” because that’s not you, Sam! I have watched some content creators that I loved for years but they made this switch over to be more of a “fantasy or this what will get me more views” and it was sad to see but I also understand that creators have to make a living just like myself. You have grown organically and a lot of creators can’t say that! Be proud of that! It’s an amazing quality that you have and always have had! I saw the TT trend of telling secrets some didn’t shock me at all but some really did and I felt like wow I’m an idiot I didn’t see that one coming! I’m so incredibly happy that you have Ashley!!! She’s an amazing person and wow does she love you!!! It’s so great that you have found a routine in life that works for you and it’s amazing that Ashely has opened her beautiful home to you so you feel SAFE, you feel productive and happy 😊 that’s what really matters at the end of the day! I’ve had so much trauma and hit after hit the last year in a half I’ve not found my footing yet but watching you and how you moved forward after the loss of Aries, your divorce, your brand making you so happy, your Creator & Friends business, traveling, your honesty when things aren’t just sunshine ☀️ and rainbows 🌈 makes me feel and makes me know that I will get there. I remember your old get ready videos of you with your hair up and in a tee shirt just like a normal person gets ready and I would see the nasty comments. It’s like sometimes you’re dammed if you do and dammed if you don’t. Everyone says they want “Real Authentic Content” but I don’t think that’s necessarily true for some people and that makes me feel sad and angry but also it’s given our youth and teens such a unrealistic view of real life. It’s definitely had an impact on my almost 18 year old niece. We’ve had to real her in at points like calm down sister no one’s skin is that perfect and no one on IG and TT really have all these things that are clearly a lie or are so manufactured. It’s just not true or even attainable at 17 to 21! Maybe less than 1% have those materialistic things….maybe? Most are borrowed from Clothing and makeup designers and stylists. It really makes me sad all the people that lie online. I don’t know why long time KZbin viewers hate shorts so much? It’s part of your job. I will never forget one short you created. You were cleaning your friend’s makeup sponges and the hateful comments were insane to me! I was like this is almost comical but some took it sooo seriously! Did they lose their personality or that you’re also extremely funny and have a great sense of humor?! Truly, I could continue talking about these topics but I’ll end it with your amazing Sam! Never change who you are ☺️💜 you are a true gem! Also love the entire look you created!

[@lalacarroll431]

And yes I’ve been with you since the red wall days lol when everyone else had the white background with one candle burning in the background another reason I adore you and you’ve always been yourself! You know I don’t have any pink 🩷 clothes! I have pink sneakers but I never wear pink. I remember when you didn’t do jewelry and I never thought you were weird! That’s the awesome part about growing and being able to change your mind! I loved the non aesthetic Sam and I love the aesthetic Sam ☺️ I’ve always been an open book and someone who overshares. I think because if I can help just one person by sharing my experiences that I’ve gone through and came out on the other side in a positive way then I did something good. But it also will open you up for criticism and say things that aren’t true! I’m happy that you haven’t let the negative comments or messages change your from sharing your real life and life experiences! I’ve always been so independent and I never wanted to ask for any help. It’s been really hard to ask for help. I really loved this video so much!! Just keep being YOU

Hugs Sam! Having an experience with a robbery it took me a while to feel comfortable at home by myself. Clothing wise I do not wear is orange or yellow. It's not my color because I think it washes me out and not colors I gravitate to.

its so hard and im so sorry you experienced that!! but ooh yellow is one of my faves actually lol!

[@juliegass9746]

​@SamanthaMarchxo i have seen you rock yellow and it looks fantastic on you!!!

[@tonyarst2922]

Losing Brene'e was the absolute worst and I am still alone. I don't have friends. I wish that I did. Samantha your journey with Aries and your home getting broken into is A LOT! I hope that at some point you will find that perfect peace. It's going to take time. But it's OK. It's going g to be OK. I hate when you cry😢. ✝️❤🙏🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾

[@tracyc1121]

This was a fun chat and they eye look is gorgeous on you! Ironically green is the color I don’t wear 😅

[@Jabburns67]

There are somany take aways i got from this video. Lots of compassion, Just stay encouraged ❤

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

thank you im so happy to hear that 💗

[@kasia-l]

I'm not at home right now, but thinking about my clothes I can only remember ONE item I have in brown😂 No wonder I don't have neutral eyeshadow palettes, only with an addition of brown to other colours😅😂

[@jessieb93855]

Hey Sam! These are my favorite videos from you, chit chat and makeup? Say less! Love hearing your take on these topics, we really need more transparency and realness…I really think all of this fraudulent content makes people so unhappy ☹️ Also awhile ago you spoke about how self sacrificing can become a form of self sabotage…I’ve been trying to find that video so I can listen again, do you know which one it was by any chance?? ❤

[@paris201125]

Great job, be your authentic self

[@katia_gabriella]

💖💖😞 Take your time with your feelings and processing. I'm dealing with stuff from forever ago, and it's impacted my everyday life enough that it's extremely rough. Stay healthy! I did the opposite. No idea if I'll be fully intact body wise in ten years.

[@debwhite5281]

No we need to see you!!

I am not a local friend but if I was, I would 100% be a Samantha's Squad Girlie. I also love football, have a dog love of my life that I lost and have not been able to get another dog since, and have so much I feel in common with you. I also never let myself have a KZbin channel because of my serious overshare. Know that you are brave, seen, and loved!! 💕🥰

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

aw thank you!

[@faithpierce5774]

Just my opinion but i dont think u shouldn't change ur content its the foundation of your channel is how you are so personable.It makes it great!

[@mama.kelley]

The problem is that what people watch or hear on social media is not always real or realistic, and with the rise of AI I think it's only going to get worse. This is not true for every platform but certainly some. I think some creators have a lot of their younger audience believing what they see is true and authentic when it is just a facade and this is problematic. I like the content of creators like Sam who tells it like it is. It's not all sunshine and rainbows all the time and that's the reality I know!

[@katia_gabriella]

Seriously. The older crowd and the younger crowd think everything on TikTok is the God given truth 😂😂😂 '88 baby here.

[@jessicalevy2415]

Not to get too deep, but I feel like so much of this idea that you (or anyone) is “leaning too much on your friends” shows how we just do not have a model for deep friendships that look more like a partnership than just friends who see each other occasionally. Those same people would not criticize people leaning on their spouses in the same way after a tough year. I’m so glad you have Ashley, Sam, and I bet she’d say the same about you 💜

[@susaaanmarie]

Also PS “hello biceps” 😂 Taylor lautner , jacob, in that movie after he cut his hair is so hot 😍 also Robert Pattinson’s character is named Edward in twilight

[@patrickplummer1027]

Happy weekend, Samantha

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

happy weekend!

[@FashionPassion777]

It's - 35 degrees Fahrenheit in Canada... yes MINUS 35 😂

[@reneegrace7965]

You know, not often do I comment on my age, yet at 63 I have to say I'm grateful to not have any clue about all of this online craziness! I see my granddaughter glued to her phone on TikTok and I'm sorry, I just don't get it AT ALL. I just started watching beauty videos about 6 yrs ago and I love long form and really could care less about what a person's space looks like, if her hair and nails are done and if she has her jewelry on. I feel bad that you are put into this position...... just my 2 cents worth good luck Sam!

omg hiiii!!

[@JoysBeautyJawns]

I just love you so much 🥰💕💕💕💕💕🩷🫶💜💞

[@Lilblue515]

When people say they want to see "real" people is the same thing as guys who say they prefer girls who dont ware "makeup" People dont know what they want.

[@katia_gabriella]

Or know how to articulate what exactly they're trying to say. I watch Pop The Balloon or Find Love on here, and most people backtrack on what they've asked or said because the other person is taking in what they're literally saying, and it's not favored toward them. So what happens is that the person who even said anything to begin with has to confront and explain what they meant. Just don't say it if you don't mean it! 😂😂 So lots of people without dates.

[@katia_gabriella]

😂😂 I missed watching all of the lies coming out. I was desperately trying to download as many as possible of my favorite videos that cheer me up or are just so me. I found my favorite video of all time doing that, so if TikTok was actually gone gone, I'd be sad, but I don't care about all these fake people.

[@karensonnentag1882]

I know you probably feel weak when you lean on your friends, but it's just the opposite. It takes a strong person to accept help. You are a strong woman!

[@oxfordstyle5807]

As a milenial I thought we all already knew everything on the internet was fake 🤷‍♀️

[@heidifoss532]

I remember that terrifying feeling! And I went through the home invasion as a 18 year old back in 1989!

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

@heidifoss532 oh my gosh!! that's so so awful😞

[@heidifoss532]

@ I get that unsafe feeling you have.☹️

[@michellej5616]

Someone on the internet.... Told you that you are leaning on your friends "too much." ... I watched Angie's video on how toxic the internet is these days. Sam, you are a beautiful person inside and out. That ashhole's comment is not worth dignifying. But if sht like that is hurting you, maybe you do need a break from this place. I don't think you are weak for living alone and having had your home broken into. That's horrifying. I would be terrified, all the time. And anybody who says there is a time limit on grief has no idea. Fuck them. Love to you, boo.

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

thank you so much 💓

[@Pinkorchid251985]

I'm trying to start doing social media for chronic health and Disability advocating. There are a lot of people in that space already, but I just don't know where to start

[@marianekalis1533]

His name was Edward. I actually have my menopause brain working today, so I had to google it. The TRUTH! 😮lol great content today. ❤hugs to you from Ohio where we had single digits on Monday Tuesday and Wednesday.

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

Omg yes!! LOL 😂

[@tonyarst2922]

I dont wear green 😂😂 but i do wear khaki green😅

[@diannepalshook4845]

Hi Sam. I enjoyed today’s video. I also live in las Vegas. I know how you feel about Aries passing my dog died in 2021 kidney and heart failure. Have you considered adopting from a shelter. I’m trying to convince my husband to get another dog but so far no luck. I miss our Roxy every day.

[@queenskid187]

What bothers me about some creators is the plasticity that's occurring. Many no longer have forehead lines and suddenly their lips are subtly plump. It's nice to see creators that are more natural. It gives older viewers the impression that wrinkles are not a part of life when they are. Rant over 😂😂😂 I don't wear pink 😊

[@paulinecrawford139]

Edward from Twilight

[@ingriddryden1607]

I love hot topics like this😀

[@glitter5031]

I absolutely understand not feeling safe in your home where you should feel the safest. I was raped by a serial rapist 33 years ago. It takes all your security away. I completely understand. People need to just take a step back. Take the time for you. No one should judge another person.

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

thats so so horrible, I'm so sorry 😞

[@glitter5031]

@SamanthaMarchxo I wish I could tell you that you will get that feeling back. Like I said, it's been 33 years and I don't. It's better but I have good and bad days. I have triggers.

[@daragladwell3106]

[@MaryJoHeadrick]

I don’t own a lot of pink or purple (hilarious bc purple is my favorite color but I don’t think it looks very good on me). I do have a lot of mauve tho lmao

[@erikasiebring4965]

It such a multi-faceted concept and argument! It makes sense that creators would want to give the audience what they want (for money, popularity, views, what have you) but then there's the personal responsibility side of viewers not just taking everything at face value and realizing that real life is not perfect. People inspiring other people is great! There should be more of that positive inspiration. But like...as a viewer you have to understand real life isn't necessarily TikTok. Lots of room for good discussion there. Wishing the best for you! P.S. loved the videos you did just with you sitting in your office with sweats on!
