@HelenAvery Күн бұрын
Hi, it doesn't really help that much, it smooths it out a bit but it's not a miracle cure or anything. You might have better luck with K18 hair mask, I made a video with that one as well.

I wonder if it’s a change in materials they are using lately or if the bags being made in different countries have anything to do with that. I’ve noticed that they are coming from Tunisia, Romania, and china. I’m not even sure if it’s made in France still anymore. I do notice the difference between the leather feel and nylon between all of them made from different places.

Oh that's an interesting theory. Though I must say I can't tell the difference with my three, but they are also all old so who knows anymore. Crappy quality for apparel and bags though seems to be the new normal, even at the luxury level!

Works best with a dampened Beauty Blender sponge to apply. And apply sparingly. I'm careful to apply really sparingly on areas that are lined or have wrinkles. I love using the Smoother primer first.

I found the heel counter doesn’t offer much support as I find my heel slips inwards also they don’t hold the colour well once you clean them especially in the navy. Also agree with the angled logo on the back also think the design is linked to the issues I have with heel support shame with a better counter in them they could be so much better.

Hi! Finally after watching your videos about double wear I went to Sephora to make sure I would find the right shade for me and I was able to get a sample of the foundation. I’ve been loving it!! I using it with the cicaplast cream under and OMG! I wish I had use this cream on the past winter, is like water on my desert 🌵 skin. The double wear foundation, I try to use as little I need, mostly on the areas I really want to cover, (that’s why also I wanted to find a good match color), I do apply with finger and the finish is beautiful, not totally matte, more like radiant. For now I’m still going through the sample but definitely I will buy the full size. Thanks for your recommendations!!

Hi! Oooh, this size or a different size? If I had to go back in time I might have picked a larger one even though they aren’t as popular…as much as I love this one it’s a tight squeeze for my phone. My storage is pretty boring, I just keep it in its dust bag because my climate is pretty dry. I think you have to let more air circulate in damp and humid places. Thanks for the idea though, if I think of something insightful to add I will consider making a video on this! I appreciate you

I used to love your videos, so helpful and I learned so much. Especially when you spoke about hair loss and treatment as well as face creams and make up But ever since you started showing what bags you have I can no longer say your videos are of any use to me personally. Although I have expensive bags myself, I am not interested to see which ones you have and what you put in yours. Sorry but please do not drift in the ‘now I have expensive bags and I need to show them to you trend. For that there are other people who are knowledgeable in the luxury world.

Next week is a Differin skincare video, so this isn’t my new “niche” by any means, I’ve just been having a bit of fun (which after 6 years of YouTubing I think I can do) with this handbag series. Totally ok if it’s not for you, obviously. I’m just trying to have fun and stay with the platform rather than quit, and that means I make pivots here and there but there is a constant which is I am showing up as my genuine self and following my interest each week. I can’t please everyone and that’s ok! However you are very much entitled to your opinion and as long as it’s not offensive, you are welcome to share your thoughts here. Also my bags are pretty much all old…I’ve had all except this one for decades, so I’m not trying to be someone I am not. I also studied fashion history (I never studied dermatology) which definitely makes me more knowledgeable than most in this realm at least from a fabrication and design perspective even if I’m not a super-buyer.
