I have been a housewife for 3 years. Every morning I do my makeup. Its my play time and often stuff came up and I had to go out. My husband once asked, why I do my makeup to mop the floor and I told him because you never know what will happen that day, you know and it makes me feel beautifull.
Similar here. I became disabled (vision issues) and had to retire. I use makeup ad therapy to remind myself that I'm not less of a human being just b/c I can't see so good anymore.
I totally agree with you on this. And my luck would have it that on the only day when I did not do my makeup and went out to walk my dog would bump into someone I hadn’t seen for a while. It’s not worth taking the risk. 😁
I hope you see this: I’m divorcing my husband, a man I love more than anything, because I found out he’s been lying to me. I am crushed. But I’ve been watching your videos for the past week as a way to start to see beyond what this man and his criticism and ideas of what sexy is and what I should be, and start feeling like myself again. You are helping people more than you know. Please keep doing what you do.
I think you will really love one of the videos I am filing today. It’s called “if you let yourself go...here’s how you get YOU back” keep your beautiful eyes peeled for it to go up xoxoxox
Yes!! I will be waiting for it. I’m just exhausted by all of this. But it’s been a week since I found what I found and told him it’s over, and I’ve survived this week. I just want to come out of this me again. Thank you for helping.
@@sandradominguez4750 God be with you. Personally, my faith and getting out for a walk TOTALLY is like medicine! ABSOLUTELY like "mind medicine".. Even just doing my own nails, makes such a difference. I commented because I have been in your shoes
Can’t explain the psychological reason behind it, but for the past couple of weeks i have been getting ready properly, shower, makeup, hair etc, before work (i work from home) and i am so much more productive!
That's great! I've been doing it too. Sometimes it's hard with kids running around and so many things to get done in the mornings. But I do find that if I just get it done my day is soo much more productive and definitely in a more positive mood about all the shit i have to get done lol
I'll be honest, I feel like I started letting myself go before covid. Not horribly so, but just giving in to the weight gain and fatigue that comes with age. Well, I'm sick of it. I'm ready to come back roaring. I've already lost five pounds, quit coffee, whitened my teeth, cut three inches of crappy ends off my hair, started using lotion on my whole body and drinking more water. I'm at that point where I WANT to do the work to feel younger, healthier and more beautiful. I love how unapologetic you are about the value of self-care and beautifying yourself. I'm a new-ish subscriber and I have been thinking of you when I feel determined to do this for the reason of feeling like a whole person, not just vanity.
Thank you so much for watching! Sounds like you are embarking on an awesome self care journey. And definitely not apologizing for this anymore...I did for a long time and it did not feel good, I wasn’t myself, and I didn’t like who I became. This feels way better! Xo
I completely agree with “staying ready” so you don’t have to get ready...As a mom of two kids, I noticed that I would get them and my husband ready and I always ran out of time for myself. Now I get ready first at the beginning of the day and touch up later and I call it “ ready all day.” It makes me more excited about the day And there’s no stress. I never really achieved the look that I wanted when I was racing to get ready anyway.
I'm proud of you Wendy! I don't know you but that's okay just know that what you said came across very clearly to me and other people. I always put myself on the back burner and I have to stop doing that. I need to put myself first and get ready then get my son ready as well. But I will try this. Only positive things can come from this because we are not only putting ourselves first but we're also loving ourselves in our own bodies if that make sense. I just want to say thank you again for writing this it means a lot to me.
drink a tall glass of water every morning once you wake up! put on hand cream on your hands and feet (it really works to soften your feet too) before going to bed
Yesterday for the first time in a while I made up my hair and make up and outfit the way I used to do in my early 20s going out. Wow, did I feel better about myself? Yesss!!! No feeling can compare to that. Maybe that's why people try to stop us from doing it all the time
whitney hedrick Yay! I’m working on my March planner today and am thinking adding a 60 day beauty plan to the planner spread is just what it needs! Looking forward to the video 💜
I’ve always hated my fingers/fingernails. I feel like they are short and stubby and my nails never grow in an “elegant” way. Lately I’ve been simply painting them a few times a week with clear nail polish and my self confidence has drastically improved!
I 100% agree with you that mindset is totally different after 30. I've just turned 36 and the things that used to be important just aren't anymore. I focus more on skincare, taking care of my hair and nails. Moisturising lol. Taking the time to do a big shower or bath and facial makes me feel just as good as doing a full face of makeup and putting on a dress.
I’m 25 and I am currently a stay at home mother to 4 kids. I just found your channel recently and your content has really helped me push myself to be what I want to be again. I’m going back to work, I’m drinking more water, I’m playing with my kids more, I’m caring for myself again and I really lost sight of that over the past few years. I’m falling back in love with myself and I can’t thank you enough for creating content that helps people level up. I watch you every day now, to remind myself that I’m worth it, and that I’m capable of anything I want. T
Tried ashawanda to help improve my mood .. and I noticed how much it really made my eyebrows grow . I think perfume is also a must .. if you smell good, you feel good ( the power of smell ) I sometimes even wear it to bed . It relaxes me♥️ Great tips !!!
Subscribed. Thank you so much for sharing your target demographic. I’m in my 30’s and I felt so deeply what you mentioned in your previous video about losing “a lot of time.” This is the content we need more of in this digital era. Continue to slay and show the way, Queen!
All about the glow baby✌️ On days when I let myself stay in Pj's, and don't put effort in my look I stay in a funk. The days when I get dressed and put myself together, I instantly feel better and want to be productive. It absolutely effects us physiologically.
I saw a youtube video about crepey skin and how microneedling really helps. So I decided to give it a try and follow exactly what she did on her video. I microneedled my entire body once a month, followed by a glycolic acid moisturizer (for firming). I used to have really wrinkly knees, I stopped wearing shorts for years and dresses that showed my knees, but after 4 sessions (one each month), I have much tighter and less wrinkley skin on my knee area as well as my stomach. It really works!! Taking care of your skin on your body is SO important, we can't neglect that. You're right, our faces get so much attention, but we really show our age on the rest of the skin area, (knees, chest, forearms, stomachs) and if we want to continue to wear dresses and shorts, this is a must!!!
If I have realized anything (and maybe its from the pandemic and staying home and laying low), I completely see no need to do full coverage makeup. Do we really need a full face of spackle, contour, highlight, etc. everyday when some simple tinted moisturizer, a single sweep of eyeshadow, mascara, and a lip balm feels pretty good!
Here's an advice: I have a ton of friends who only improved their beauty routine until they got married....Now they are crying. Ladies start your self love , self care journey now .
Oh, I started my beauty journey like 6 months ago and I ‘ve been exactly doing same things as you mentioned: 1. Be ready first before my baby wakes up- I also bought an apron to protect my clothes when I am cooking or just doing breakfast or baby food so 2. Skincare( professional deep ultrasonic cleaning 👍) 3. Grow my lashes and brows ( I actually tried some serums before but now I am testing castor oil) 4. Manicure, pedicure 5. Workout 🏋️♀️ specifically weight lifting- great for stress relief and control of emotions 6. Drinking celery juice every morning makes my skin cleaner Thank you for your video ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I just started using my jade roller under my eyes after putting on the ordinary caffeine serum. The jade roller is super cold, I don’t really believe there are other benefits. All the puffiness goes away with this combo! So good.
I feel like 2020 has made me forget how to dress....I feel like I don’t know how to wear anything but sweats and activewear 😭 can you do a video on outfit inspiration?
I know it's been a minute since this comment was posted, but I fell down a rabbit hole recently that you might find helpful! Look up the style essences, there are videos on TH-cam that break down how to find your own. It's sort of a "break down what lines best flatter you and learn how to best use those lines to define your own style." You might find it worthwhile, especially if you're open to embracing a distinct style going forward!
Today I wore jeans and normal clothes all day (and did my makeup) for the first time in a very long time and I hate to admit it (I do love my sweat pants) but you were right, it did make a big difference. I mean I knew it would make a difference but I was still shocked to notice how much lol. Even though I still had online classes I felt like my routine was kind of "normal" again and I felt more motivated in general, not only for work but also for keeping up with my diet/fitness routine etc. Because of Covid I don't really fit into my jeans anymore :( It's a lot easier to let yourself go when you're wearing sweat pants with an elastic band all day and don't really realise how you fit into your normal clothes. I'm ready for my glow up !!
I totally agree about your point about trying to look/feel beautiful naturally. Like in my teens/20s I was self dyeing my hair all the time, wearing colored contacts, always wearing face full of makeup, etc. And as I been getting older I noticed I prefer to try and let my hair be natural so it'll be healthier, appreciating my brown eyes, trying to have healthy clear skin so I *don't* have to wear face makeup I prefer to just wear pretty and simple eye makeup.
Thank you Whitney! Great tips. 🙏❤️🙏 like I said before I work in healthcare and under a mask everyday. However, I do full makeup and hair daily of course with my scrubs lol but about two months ago I started a complete new better way of eating . I’ve only lost ten pounds but I’m ten pounds lighter and that feels great! It’s a life change and not a diet. It’s the little things y’all. Thanks again Whitney!
I completely agree with your statement about wanting to look better naturally vs needing to use makeup. I changed my skincare routine and have completely focused on bettering what I have. You’re wonderful! Thank you for your video! 💜🧚♀️
Been binging a few of your videos, I love how practical your tips are and the insights you share. Especially the double cleaning tip specifically the days I dont wear makeup and to stop buying new products instead of just practicing!
Party lol 🌸 I am here for adult women content. I got to a point where i was like.... yeah so the multi coloured shadows are just too young for me now 🤣 like yes I could but at 39 that would look like I am just trying so hard to be 20 and I am cool with my age. I got a silk pillow case a month ago and omg my hair and skin are improving so much just from that one thing!
When I am doing my daily beauty routine, whatever I use on my face also goes on my neck, chest and hands. I have really noticed an improvement in the backs of my hands since I started including them.
I don't think you've ever put up a video that i 100% agree with, BUUUUT i keep coming back to watch every single one because i DO appreciate the different perspectives you present. You clearly think things through, you formulate your opinions, and you stand by them. Not everything in this video is right for me personally, but i love the message you are sending, which is to examine our personal habits and find small ways to improve our routines to achieve a happier and healthier life. I've started making some healthy life changes this year already, but i'm definitely going to work on some specific things for the next 90 days. Fingers crossed that i experience some positive changes!
I get ready (not glam )from hair to shoes every day for 1 year now, and on one several occasions it served me well. I could leave my house immediately to take my son to urgent care, help my mom with unexpected needs, etc,
I've been putting on making and actually changing sweatpants every morning, and it has made me feel so much better. I rarely leave the house, but I still like to have cute sweat outfits or jeans and a cute t-shirt on. It doesn't have to be all or nothing. Little things can make us feel so much better! I also get more studying and cleaning done if I do a little makeup and throw on a pair of shoes to start the day!
Sis i love that you are promoting working on ur natural beauty then pushing enhancements like extensions fake stuff. I believe everyone especially men now see from social media how we can fix ourselves up and look completely different without it and they hate that more than anything. AND it will be a huge things in the near future to look good without these things and many will have no edges no lashes so on and will have tons of work to do to just get back to the beauty they had b4 damage so starting now to work with what God gave you and take good care of yourself to build on your natural beauty may seem to take longer but in the long run you will be winning. The real thing is always better than the fake. Dont believe the hype. Keep building UP the woman your on to the right path sis. Love u
I'd love to see your current every day, get ready with my hair and makeup routine. This covid era has me feeling drab and I'm a hairstylist. Beauty is my thing but outside my clients, i currently dont have the energy for it. I am new to your channel and I am loving your content.
Whitney, thank you for being a good influence. Your channel continues to be a tremendous motivator and highly uplifting for me personally. I appreciate your content so much, and would love to hear more aimed at women over 30. I wanted to suggest that if you do begin making more content focussing on 'femmes d'un certain age' so to speak, that you do a segment addressing the very concept of "aging gracefully." I have tried to express to people in my life that the word 'graceful' means moving through life with ease, elegance and dignity--not the desperate, strained pursuit of youthful appearance, which often originates from a place of low self-worth or even self-loathing. In my view, the classic term "aging gracefully" has been co-opted and warped by the beauty and cosmetic alteration industry to promote a ceaseless striving for the impossible: to not age at all. Please reassure your beautiful viewers that it is permissible to age naturally, and it is also perfectly permissible to take measures to forestall the effects of aging; yet, for ads to promote the concept of "aging gracefully" (when what they really mean is to cease aging altogether), is to do a great disservice to the women in the world who do not and cannot hope to meet this unrealistic and unfair standard. How is desperately chasing a magic elixir of youth in any way shape or form a display of gracefulness? Is it not more graceful to maintain poise? I often admire french women for this ability to cultivate a stylish personal image conveying self-love and high-standards, irrespective of age. Would love to hear your perspective on this. I truly believe it is the woman cultivating kindness, elegance, and a peaceful inner contentment with the changing seasons of life who is the one displaying true grace. Please discuss the essential meaning of "aging gracefully" as an intentional act we choose to partake in, not a particular aesthetic achievement we attain. Taking pride in our appearance is a way to express to ourselves and others that we are feminine, dignified, loving women who not only accept but EMBRACE life through all changes with the passage of time. Thank you for all that you do-- J
I’m loving these videos as encouragement/reminder! Thank you! I’m 10 months postpartum I was STRUGGLING. the truth was I still had the extra 20 pounds but learning to do small things like have clean, non chipped nails, or meal prepping for ease really gets the ball rolling. Now I’m back at it, but occasionally need the encouragement.
I work full time 50+ hrs a week, have an active toddler, a 7 year old and a husband and literally wear exercise clothes everyday, no makeup and hair in a ponytail and am sick of it! I want to make time for self care but feel like there is no time! 😭 I'm up at 6am every morning but so are my kids so no time there either and when I have a "few minutes" to myself I'm just too damn tired to want to practice any self care
Just found your channel. Love your vibe. Also, I’m so sorry to hear about your mom. I lost my mom in 2020 so I relate to the pointlessness of putting makeup on in the wake of that loss - cried my eyes out every day up until very recently. I hope you’re moving through your grief okay - it seems you take very good care of yourself emotionally as well as physically. Thank you for sharing so honestly with us 💞
Gurlllll i needed this video! Today is Jan 4, 2021 n its the 1st time I've seen ur videos n I'm so glad cuz u seem so down 2 earth! Great beauty habits 2 have! TY
Oh man, Ashwaghanda gives me such vivid and terrifying nightmares I can’t even take it. I also have super low blood pressure, and it lowers my blood pressure even more, to the point where I have complete black out tunnel vision when simply standing up. 😭😭 Love that it works for you! The natural route before medication is the way to go!
Wanted to say thank you for inspiring me to take better care of myself. I have watched a few of your videos about high maintenance etc. and i implemented some and omg I feel so much better! When I was younger I had the best beauty routine and I spend alot more money on clothes etc. I really started to miss that! I bought a few new outfits, get ready every day, put on some perfume For my birthday I made a wishlist with some shower products etc. I would like to see the glow up here on your channel!!
I always have my nails done all the time.I do everything with them.I have begun to drink more water.I havetoo go for my daily walk .I love it.Thanks for these videos .Educational.
I love the idea of a community glow up! I have actually already started. I've stepped up my skincare (retinol) and got my hair cut for the first time in two years. I'm also trying to tackle all the admin I procrastinate on and am planning on using Revitalash, going to the dentist and investing in nice dressed and underwear. I was in a slump and I've decided to take care of myself more (while saving hard and panning all my make up - often I would just buy more make-up rather than do wider, deeper work of actually improving my looks /outlook/ skin.
Do a Glow up!! I'll be 32 this year, and while I would like to get ready everyday and change some things, I have found this year that I'm putting more effort into my natural features than ever before. Like you said, trying caffeine eye creams on my hooded eyes, new skincare routines, wearing spf everyday, and focusing on that versus covering up all the things I don't like. I feel like women hit a major transition period at 30 and we can all relate to the mindset and physical changes we experience!
First of all Whitney, you are fabulous. Love love love your vids! I'm a 51 yr old with "young" skin and added collagen 2 years ago. Within one month (and discovery of a breast lump), I learned collagen is proven to provide pathways in the body for cancer cell travel/transfer from an otherwise encapsulated situation. Definitely do the research before taking it!
I’m having an issue getting ready because I work at home now. I feel like what’s the point no one is going to see me but then I feel so bad about myself right now because of it. I’m going to take this challenge on and hope to feel better and proud that I completed something! I’m very thankful for you and your videos! I’m hearing you girl and I’m trying. 💕😘
I just adore these videos. They speak to my soul. I would definitely love to see the 60 day challenge. And I agree. As a 43 year old woman, I often forget I’m that age but I do not like the long nail and hair extensions etc look. To me it mostly looks cheap. My goal is to be classy in all areas of my life.
Great video, Whitney! You made some excellent points.To the people reading the comment section: please, don't make the mistake to think that taking one supplement pill a day will make your anxiety and stress disappear. I am not saying that it cannot help. If you are prone to anxiety or if you have many stressful factors in your life, the one way to improve your stress on the long run is therapy (specifically, I am talking about CBT, because it helps you reframe your perspective and thoughts, in a very down to earth and practical way). Again, I am not saying that supplements do not work. But if you start feeling that you are truly overwhelmed, please ask for help from a professional. Have a great day, everyone!
I would love love love to see a video on your personal 60 day glow up journey! I have personally been contemplating doing my own internal and external glow up but struggled with the “how to”… So please please please upload that video!
Omgggg I love you & so happy I found your channel! Your like the big sister I always wanted & the mom I wish I would of had share her knowledge with me
Loving the series! When you do your breakup video, can you do a section on your stuff - how to get your stuff back, what stuff isnt worth giving up your peace for and how to have a healthy stuff giving-back/picking-up experience. Its such a weird topic but i think is where people probably mess up and "lose" their breakup
One of the benefit of collagen is the higher percentage of glycine amino acid. As you said, it’s not about replacing collagen in your skin, it’s more about supplying a source of certain amino acids that have therapeutic impact at certain levels. If you are a hot sleeper like me, taking a 20g dose of collagen 1 hour before bed can help you sleep. Glycine can help improve sleep quality by helping you regulate your body temperature. I take my magnesium glycinate at night as well to promote better sleep quality since I have a sleep disorder. Great video, I love topics like this.
I love the glow up challenge idea! I hope to see it on patreon. It's a productive reason to be intentional with present with yourself. Hopefully that sentence made sense. So often last year I found myself not being intuitive with myself which is actually very out of character but nevertheless damage was done so to speak. Since January I've slowly had motivation to take better care of myself. One thing I do most weekdays especially, is take baths. It's a lovely escape after work to decompress and wind down whilst actually re energizing and giving me the gumption to do things like make a yummy dinner. Also I've really stepped up my body care game! Thanks for adding to the inspiration 🥰 I will have to check cleanser habits and see if I notice a difference. Love to you Whitney 💛 thanks for the enrichment as always and you're looking especially lovely 😘 I aspire 😜
Last Monday I finally started working out again. That day I already felt so much better about myself. I haven’t missed a workout yet, and even on days I don’t feel motivated or am depressed over my situation, I’ll at the very least go out for a walk. I need to learn to apply falsies. I have really good lashes, but I also have sensitive eyes. The condensation from breathing and the mask makes my mascara look horrible. I hate waterproof mascara.
Hi Whitney! I just wanted to say, I'm really enjoying your channel! I feel you are happier now that you are creating videos you truly love 💕 and I'm taking every advice you suggest because I can relate a lot. I'm 32 and also started to change how I'm doing my makeup, how I treat my skin, cleanse etc Last year was a growing year for my tattoo studio and for myself as well and now that I have a more stable income, I can put some of it into my health. I used to exercise at home but now I joined the gym, I can afford better creams, clothes and it makes me feel so good. I think the way you present yourself at work and at home it's so important. Do it for you, I say, and the perspective of the ones around you will change so much 🙂
Hey Whitney! Have you come across an eye product that could work the opposite way? Something to plump up the under eye for those of us over 45 that are losing volume?? Thanks!!
Since last summer when i started self tanning, i started making sure to use an oil and or a moisturizer everywhere every day (except when I'm applying it). I started exfoliating regularly too and this winter i didn't get eczema all over my arms like i normally do.
Facial massage is great if you have sinus issues. Just massaging under the eyes, on top of the cheek bones and between the eyes can help reduce Swelling and help clear out sinuses. I highly recommend it just to feel better, not just look better. I honestly think so many years of my acne issues were lack of good cleansing. I still have some hormonal acne, but cleansing properly helps the rest of the month for me.
I’m 32 and I have long blonde extensions and long nails and I lab it lol. I think sometimes women in their thirties start to look like like they give up when they stop doing the things they loved in their twenties.
I take Vitamin D supplements daily now because last Thanksgiving I went to the E.R. & passed a kidney stone! I didn't have enough vitamin D to break down all the calcium.
Whitney I found your channel about a year ago now. And thank you so much for the great content. All of the videos are relatable. And yes please please do a video for mature skin. I’m 52 and African American And would like that also.
I've sort of glanced through some of your older videos. I'm not sure what you've done but you look prettier now than then. Not that you looked bad in the past, of course. More like ... You're more comfortable in your skin? Or maybe you figured out the looks that work best for you & you've refined it & tweaked it as necessary. ❤️ Meanwhile, I'm pushing 50 & have no idea what 'look' works best for me so I look like a trainwreck most days.
Love the idea of a 60 day spring refresh. Your content is always inspiring. The vitamin link is not working. It’s takes me to your influencer log on page.
I take the collagen peptides with hyaluronic acid BUT I have osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis - I think if you have connective tissue disease it's worth plunking down some change on, plus my hair and nails look freaking bomb! 😜
these products have high quantity of heavy metals. there’s a couple of studies on this. i got meniscal tears in my knees while taking them for workout. months later, still walking with a limp.
You should try a dry cleanse. You do not wet your face. I use the CeraVie cleansing bar. I leave my face dry, wet the bar work into a lather and then apply to my face and keep massaging my face until the foam is dry on my skin then I apply water foam my face cleanse for a few more seconds and rinse. Works like a charm.
Hey whitney I lately have been wanting to get the t3 curling iron and was wondering if you would recommend me to get it or which one , love your videos ❣️
Loving this video! I have been doing a body routine. Super simple I just simply use a lotion when I get out of the shower. I will either use cereve, neutrogena hydraboost ( I actually use the body one on my face as well) or I use Vaseline intensive care. I get the fragrance free lotions. I put it on damp skin and my skin has been so much softer hydrated. Because I do this, I haven’t dealt with dry skin this winter. I use lash serum but not constantly. I cut my long hair that I worked hard to grow out. It was beautiful and healthy, but I cut it because I had neck surgery last year. So I’m currently growing it out. It was much easier having shorter hair during my recovery. I take 10,000 units of vitamin D3, milk thistle, and apple cider vinegar supplements every day. I bought calm and it really helps. I’ve just kinda slacked off. I need to start back. I might try the supplements you got from Amazon when I’m out of calm. I think I sound definitely like to include more steps and do a 90 day glow up! I’m one that doesn’t use eye creams only because I don’t see a difference in most, but I will probably try that caffeinated one. I deal with puffiness.
Whitney, I have the same issues, with the puffiness under my eyes and hooded eyes. I agree with you on the Caffeine in products. Not sure if you've tried The Ordinary Caffeine Solution 5% for around the eyes. It works wonders for me and it's under $10.
In Re: Facial Yoga. Nope. Think about it logically, wrinkles are caused by movement. Laugh lines from laughing. Smile lines and crows feet also from laughing (ie movement). Facts of life: as we age, our faces move forward and down. Our bones start sinking in and separating from fat pads allowing the fat pads to droop. Bio stimulators and skin plumping help keep and produce more collagen. Collagen is your face’s best friend.
Love this! Yes as I get older I focus more on nurturing my natural beauty and save my money for other things. I’d rather buy a lash serum to use for 6mo then spend $$$ on biweekly lash extensions that really look fake. If I need a pair of lashes for an event I’ll glue them on thank you. Also I have noticed a huge change in my skin from avoiding caffeine, replacing with antioxidant rich dandelion tea. I also started to drink acv regularly. These were pretty trendy at one time to but I noticed it actually works if you stick with it. I’ve also noticed how I can skip foundation if I just use an facial oil under my sunscreen. Once it melts in about 30 min later my skin looks incredible!
I’m a patron. Yes to the glow up challenge. Really there are no reasons not to do it-who wouldn’t benefit from a glow up? Also, you’re beautiful. Like I’ve always thought that but I was extra struck today. That’s all, have a great day!!!
The CeraVe SA Lotion for Rough and Bumpy Skin is the absolute BEST body lotion. Even the skin on my elbows, knees, and ankles feels literally as soft as baby skin. I have never used a body lotion that has made my skin this soft. It works so well, i've been tempted to use it on my face as well.
I have been a housewife for 3 years. Every morning I do my makeup. Its my play time and often stuff came up and I had to go out. My husband once asked, why I do my makeup to mop the floor and I told him because you never know what will happen that day, you know and it makes me feel beautifull.
Similar here. I became disabled (vision issues) and had to retire. I use makeup ad therapy to remind myself that I'm not less of a human being just b/c I can't see so good anymore.
Me too :)
Totally agree! You feel better on the outside , you feel better on the inside
I totally agree with you on this. And my luck would have it that on the only day when I did not do my makeup and went out to walk my dog would bump into someone I hadn’t seen for a while. It’s not worth taking the risk. 😁
Such a Queen!! 👑👑👑

@@sandradominguez4750 you can do this ❤️
❤️it’s the first time I feel even ok about starting! Thank you for being kind. I feel like I’ve been cracked open and my guts are spilling out.
@@sandradominguez4750 God be with you. Personally, my faith and getting out for a walk TOTALLY is like medicine! ABSOLUTELY like "mind medicine"..
Even just doing my own nails, makes such a difference. I commented because I have been in your shoes
Can’t explain the psychological reason behind it, but for the past couple of weeks i have been getting ready properly, shower, makeup, hair etc, before work (i work from home) and i am so much more productive!
I love that!!!!
I'm so proud of you! Great job Carleenie!
That's great! I've been doing it too. Sometimes it's hard with kids running around and so many things to get done in the mornings. But I do find that if I just get it done my day is soo much more productive and definitely in a more positive mood about all the shit i have to get done lol
I am a housewife so it helps for me to get up, exercise, shower, and put on makeup
I'll be honest, I feel like I started letting myself go before covid. Not horribly so, but just giving in to the weight gain and fatigue that comes with age. Well, I'm sick of it. I'm ready to come back roaring. I've already lost five pounds, quit coffee, whitened my teeth, cut three inches of crappy ends off my hair, started using lotion on my whole body and drinking more water. I'm at that point where I WANT to do the work to feel younger, healthier and more beautiful. I love how unapologetic you are about the value of self-care and beautifying yourself. I'm a new-ish subscriber and I have been thinking of you when I feel determined to do this for the reason of feeling like a whole person, not just vanity.
Thank you so much for watching! Sounds like you are embarking on an awesome self care journey. And definitely not apologizing for this anymore...I did for a long time and it did not feel good, I wasn’t myself, and I didn’t like who I became. This feels way better! Xo
I spent all last year like that, but I'm working hard this year to come back fabulously - you Cando it!
@@1015SaturdayNight Aw, thanks Emily!! Let's do this!!!! :D
I can very much relate to this right now I feel this way but I’m ready to start making some changes 🙌🙌💗
Girl I’m with you but not the caffeine.
I completely agree with “staying ready” so you don’t have to get ready...As a mom of two kids, I noticed that I would get them and my husband ready and I always ran out of time for myself. Now I get ready first at the beginning of the day and touch up later and I call it “ ready all day.” It makes me more excited about the day And there’s no stress. I never really achieved the look that I wanted when I was racing to get ready anyway.
Love it!
That is awesome Wendy. Even as a total stranger, it makes me happy for you to hear that.
I’m a mom too and I think I’ll steal this from you 👏🏻
Oh I love this!!!
I'm proud of you Wendy! I don't know you but that's okay just know that what you said came across very clearly to me and other people. I always put myself on the back burner and I have to stop doing that. I need to put myself first and get ready then get my son ready as well. But I will try this. Only positive things can come from this because we are not only putting ourselves first but we're also loving ourselves in our own bodies if that make sense. I just want to say thank you again for writing this it means a lot to me.
drink a tall glass of water every morning once you wake up! put on hand cream on your hands and feet (it really works to soften your feet too) before going to bed
Yesterday for the first time in a while I made up my hair and make up and outfit the way I used to do in my early 20s going out. Wow, did I feel better about myself? Yesss!!! No feeling can compare to that. Maybe that's why people try to stop us from doing it all the time
I’m very happy for you
YES we need that 60 day glow up refresh!
Will do I am super excited about it xoxox
whitney hedrick Yay! I’m working on my March planner today and am thinking adding a 60 day beauty plan to the planner spread is just what it needs! Looking forward to the video 💜
I’ve always hated my fingers/fingernails. I feel like they are short and stubby and my nails never grow in an “elegant” way. Lately I’ve been simply painting them a few times a week with clear nail polish and my self confidence has drastically improved!
I 100% agree with you that mindset is totally different after 30. I've just turned 36 and the things that used to be important just aren't anymore. I focus more on skincare, taking care of my hair and nails. Moisturising lol. Taking the time to do a big shower or bath and facial makes me feel just as good as doing a full face of makeup and putting on a dress.
I’m 25 and I am currently a stay at home mother to 4 kids. I just found your channel recently and your content has really helped me push myself to be what I want to be again. I’m going back to work, I’m drinking more water, I’m playing with my kids more, I’m caring for myself again and I really lost sight of that over the past few years. I’m falling back in love with myself and I can’t thank you enough for creating content that helps people level up. I watch you every day now, to remind myself that I’m worth it, and that I’m capable of anything I want. T
Tried ashawanda to help improve my mood .. and I noticed how much it really made my eyebrows grow . I think perfume is also a must .. if you smell good, you feel good ( the power of smell ) I sometimes even wear it to bed . It relaxes me♥️ Great tips !!!
Subscribed. Thank you so much for sharing your target demographic. I’m in my 30’s and I felt so deeply what you mentioned in your previous video about losing “a lot of time.” This is the content we need more of in this digital era. Continue to slay and show the way, Queen!
All about the glow baby✌️
On days when I let myself stay in Pj's, and don't put effort in my look I stay in a funk. The days when I get dressed and put myself together, I instantly feel better and want to be productive. It absolutely effects us physiologically.
I saw a youtube video about crepey skin and how microneedling really helps. So I decided to give it a try and follow exactly what she did on her video. I microneedled my entire body once a month, followed by a glycolic acid moisturizer (for firming). I used to have really wrinkly knees, I stopped wearing shorts for years and dresses that showed my knees, but after 4 sessions (one each month), I have much tighter and less wrinkley skin on my knee area as well as my stomach. It really works!! Taking care of your skin on your body is SO important, we can't neglect that. You're right, our faces get so much attention, but we really show our age on the rest of the skin area, (knees, chest, forearms, stomachs) and if we want to continue to wear dresses and shorts, this is a must!!!
If I have realized anything (and maybe its from the pandemic and staying home and laying low), I completely see no need to do full coverage makeup. Do we really need a full face of spackle, contour, highlight, etc. everyday when some simple tinted moisturizer, a single sweep of eyeshadow, mascara, and a lip balm feels pretty good!
Here's an advice:
I have a ton of friends who only improved their beauty routine until they got married....Now they are crying.
Ladies start your self love , self care journey now .
Oh, I started my beauty journey like 6 months ago and I ‘ve been exactly doing same things as you mentioned: 1. Be ready first before my baby wakes up- I also bought an apron to protect my clothes when I am cooking or just doing breakfast or baby food so 2. Skincare( professional deep ultrasonic cleaning 👍) 3. Grow my lashes and brows ( I actually tried some serums before but now I am testing castor oil) 4. Manicure, pedicure 5. Workout 🏋️♀️ specifically weight lifting- great for stress relief and control of emotions 6. Drinking celery juice every morning makes my skin cleaner
Thank you for your video ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I just started using my jade roller under my eyes after putting on the ordinary caffeine serum. The jade roller is super cold, I don’t really believe there are other benefits. All the puffiness goes away with this combo! So good.
this might be my 3rd time watching it, and im still loving it.
This series is definitely part of your life's calling.
If you stay ready you never have to get ready! Amen to that! Literally what I struggle with as someone who works from home! ❤❤
it can be such a struggle
I feel like 2020 has made me forget how to dress....I feel like I don’t know how to wear anything but sweats and activewear 😭 can you do a video on outfit inspiration?
I know it's been a minute since this comment was posted, but I fell down a rabbit hole recently that you might find helpful! Look up the style essences, there are videos on TH-cam that break down how to find your own. It's sort of a "break down what lines best flatter you and learn how to best use those lines to define your own style." You might find it worthwhile, especially if you're open to embracing a distinct style going forward!
Kiterpuss oh that sounds right up my alley, thank you! 😍
Today I wore jeans and normal clothes all day (and did my makeup) for the first time in a very long time and I hate to admit it (I do love my sweat pants) but you were right, it did make a big difference. I mean I knew it would make a difference but I was still shocked to notice how much lol. Even though I still had online classes I felt like my routine was kind of "normal" again and I felt more motivated in general, not only for work but also for keeping up with my diet/fitness routine etc. Because of Covid I don't really fit into my jeans anymore :( It's a lot easier to let yourself go when you're wearing sweat pants with an elastic band all day and don't really realise how you fit into your normal clothes. I'm ready for my glow up !!
I totally agree about your point about trying to look/feel beautiful naturally. Like in my teens/20s I was self dyeing my hair all the time, wearing colored contacts, always wearing face full of makeup, etc. And as I been getting older I noticed I prefer to try and let my hair be natural so it'll be healthier, appreciating my brown eyes, trying to have healthy clear skin so I *don't* have to wear face makeup I prefer to just wear pretty and simple eye makeup.
Thank you Whitney! Great tips. 🙏❤️🙏 like I said before I work in healthcare and under a mask everyday. However, I do full makeup and hair daily of course with my scrubs lol but about two months ago I started a complete new better way of eating . I’ve only lost ten pounds but I’m ten pounds lighter and that feels great! It’s a life change and not a diet. It’s the little things y’all. Thanks again Whitney!
My beauty habits: drinking LOADS of water. Ditching soda & making sure to sleep a lot :)
I completely agree with your statement about wanting to look better naturally vs needing to use makeup. I changed my skincare routine and have completely focused on bettering what I have. You’re wonderful! Thank you for your video! 💜🧚♀️
Been binging a few of your videos, I love how practical your tips are and the insights you share. Especially the double cleaning tip specifically the days I dont wear makeup and to stop buying new products instead of just practicing!
Party lol 🌸 I am here for adult women content. I got to a point where i was like.... yeah so the multi coloured shadows are just too young for me now 🤣 like yes I could but at 39 that would look like I am just trying so hard to be 20 and I am cool with my age. I got a silk pillow case a month ago and omg my hair and skin are improving so much just from that one thing!
You can wear any color at any age..
When I am doing my daily beauty routine, whatever I use on my face also goes on my neck, chest and hands. I have really noticed an improvement in the backs of my hands since I started including them.
I don't think you've ever put up a video that i 100% agree with, BUUUUT i keep coming back to watch every single one because i DO appreciate the different perspectives you present. You clearly think things through, you formulate your opinions, and you stand by them. Not everything in this video is right for me personally, but i love the message you are sending, which is to examine our personal habits and find small ways to improve our routines to achieve a happier and healthier life. I've started making some healthy life changes this year already, but i'm definitely going to work on some specific things for the next 90 days. Fingers crossed that i experience some positive changes!
Yassss, keep these videos up Whitney! I’ll be 44 this year.
I get ready (not glam )from hair to shoes every day for 1 year now, and on one several occasions it served me well. I could leave my house immediately to take my son to urgent care, help my mom with unexpected needs, etc,
I've been putting on making and actually changing sweatpants every morning, and it has made me feel so much better. I rarely leave the house, but I still like to have cute sweat outfits or jeans and a cute t-shirt on. It doesn't have to be all or nothing. Little things can make us feel so much better! I also get more studying and cleaning done if I do a little makeup and throw on a pair of shoes to start the day!
Sis i love that you are promoting working on ur natural beauty then pushing enhancements like extensions fake stuff. I believe everyone especially men now see from social media how we can fix ourselves up and look completely different without it and they hate that more than anything. AND it will be a huge things in the near future to look good without these things and many will have no edges no lashes so on and will have tons of work to do to just get back to the beauty they had b4 damage so starting now to work with what God gave you and take good care of yourself to build on your natural beauty may seem to take longer but in the long run you will be winning. The real thing is always better than the fake. Dont believe the hype. Keep building UP the woman your on to the right path sis. Love u
I'd love to see your current every day, get ready with my hair and makeup routine. This covid era has me feeling drab and I'm a hairstylist. Beauty is my thing but outside my clients, i currently dont have the energy for it. I am new to your channel and I am loving your content.
Whitney, thank you for being a good influence. Your channel continues to be a tremendous motivator and highly uplifting for me personally. I appreciate your content so much, and would love to hear more aimed at women over 30.
I wanted to suggest that if you do begin making more content focussing on 'femmes d'un certain age' so to speak, that you do a segment addressing the very concept of "aging gracefully." I have tried to express to people in my life that the word 'graceful' means moving through life with ease, elegance and dignity--not the desperate, strained pursuit of youthful appearance, which often originates from a place of low self-worth or even self-loathing. In my view, the classic term "aging gracefully" has been co-opted and warped by the beauty and cosmetic alteration industry to promote a ceaseless striving for the impossible: to not age at all. Please reassure your beautiful viewers that it is permissible to age naturally, and it is also perfectly permissible to take measures to forestall the effects of aging; yet, for ads to promote the concept of "aging gracefully" (when what they really mean is to cease aging altogether), is to do a great disservice to the women in the world who do not and cannot hope to meet this unrealistic and unfair standard. How is desperately chasing a magic elixir of youth in any way shape or form a display of gracefulness? Is it not more graceful to maintain poise? I often admire french women for this ability to cultivate a stylish personal image conveying self-love and high-standards, irrespective of age. Would love to hear your perspective on this.
I truly believe it is the woman cultivating kindness, elegance, and a peaceful inner contentment with the changing seasons of life who is the one displaying true grace. Please discuss the essential meaning of "aging gracefully" as an intentional act we choose to partake in, not a particular aesthetic achievement we attain. Taking pride in our appearance is a way to express to ourselves and others that we are feminine, dignified, loving women who not only accept but EMBRACE life through all changes with the passage of time.
Thank you for all that you do-- J
I’m loving these videos as encouragement/reminder! Thank you! I’m 10 months postpartum I was STRUGGLING. the truth was I still had the extra 20 pounds but learning to do small things like have clean, non chipped nails, or meal prepping for ease really gets the ball rolling. Now I’m back at it, but occasionally need the encouragement.
I work full time 50+ hrs a week, have an active toddler, a 7 year old and a husband and literally wear exercise clothes everyday, no makeup and hair in a ponytail and am sick of it! I want to make time for self care but feel like there is no time! 😭 I'm up at 6am every morning but so are my kids so no time there either and when I have a "few minutes" to myself I'm just too damn tired to want to practice any self care
Maybe your husband can help you help you. You know?
@@trob9100 she may not know. Give her some examples...ijs😉
Just found your channel. Love your vibe. Also, I’m so sorry to hear about your mom. I lost my mom in 2020 so I relate to the pointlessness of putting makeup on in the wake of that loss - cried my eyes out every day up until very recently.
I hope you’re moving through your grief okay - it seems you take very good care of yourself emotionally as well as physically. Thank you for sharing so honestly with us 💞
Gurlllll i needed this video! Today is Jan 4, 2021 n its the 1st time I've seen ur videos n I'm so glad cuz u seem so down 2 earth! Great beauty habits 2 have! TY
Thank you for these videos whitney! I recently made a promise to myself that was only going to put energy to me and my change for the better!
Yay! So happy to hear that babe!
Oh man, Ashwaghanda gives me such vivid and terrifying nightmares I can’t even take it. I also have super low blood pressure, and it lowers my blood pressure even more, to the point where I have complete black out tunnel vision when simply standing up. 😭😭
Love that it works for you! The natural route before medication is the way to go!
Wanted to say thank you for inspiring me to take better care of myself.
I have watched a few of your videos about high maintenance etc. and i implemented some and omg I feel so much better!
When I was younger I had the best beauty routine and I spend alot more money on clothes etc.
I really started to miss that!
I bought a few new outfits, get ready every day, put on some perfume
For my birthday I made a wishlist with some shower products etc.
I would like to see the glow up here on your channel!!
I always have my nails done all the time.I do everything with them.I have begun to drink more water.I havetoo go for my daily walk .I love it.Thanks for these videos .Educational.
I love the idea of a community glow up! I have actually already started. I've stepped up my skincare (retinol) and got my hair cut for the first time in two years. I'm also trying to tackle all the admin I procrastinate on and am planning on using Revitalash, going to the dentist and investing in nice dressed and underwear. I was in a slump and I've decided to take care of myself more (while saving hard and panning all my make up - often I would just buy more make-up rather than do wider, deeper work of actually improving my looks /outlook/ skin.
Do a Glow up!! I'll be 32 this year, and while I would like to get ready everyday and change some things, I have found this year that I'm putting more effort into my natural features than ever before. Like you said, trying caffeine eye creams on my hooded eyes, new skincare routines, wearing spf everyday, and focusing on that versus covering up all the things I don't like. I feel like women hit a major transition period at 30 and we can all relate to the mindset and physical changes we experience!
yes get ready for the day!
First of all Whitney, you are fabulous. Love love love your vids! I'm a 51 yr old with "young" skin and added collagen 2 years ago. Within one month (and discovery of a breast lump), I learned collagen is proven to provide pathways in the body for cancer cell travel/transfer from an otherwise encapsulated situation. Definitely do the research before taking it!
I’m having an issue getting ready because I work at home now. I feel like what’s the point no one is going to see me but then I feel so bad about myself right now because of it. I’m going to take this challenge on and hope to feel better and proud that I completed something! I’m very thankful for you and your videos! I’m hearing you girl and I’m trying. 💕😘
Whitney this is a very beautiful look on you. I instantly clicked! The thumbnail is so intriguing. Everything looks harmonious.
Awww thank you so much!!!
“I don’t know sorry...be mad.” Omg I love you 😂💀
But seriously YES to everything in this video! You’re such a breath of fresh air!
I just adore these videos. They speak to my soul. I would definitely love to see the 60 day challenge. And I agree. As a 43 year old woman, I often forget I’m that age but I do not like the long nail and hair extensions etc look. To me it mostly looks cheap. My goal is to be classy in all areas of my life.
Love it! I’m 42 and looking classy and polished has always been my aim.
Great video, Whitney! You made some excellent points.To the people reading the comment section: please, don't make the mistake to think that taking one supplement pill a day will make your anxiety and stress disappear. I am not saying that it cannot help. If you are prone to anxiety or if you have many stressful factors in your life, the one way to improve your stress on the long run is therapy (specifically, I am talking about CBT, because it helps you reframe your perspective and thoughts, in a very down to earth and practical way). Again, I am not saying that supplements do not work. But if you start feeling that you are truly overwhelmed, please ask for help from a professional. Have a great day, everyone!
Obsessed with your hair in this video 😍😍🤩🤩
Thank you for your honesty!!
Girl, you look so good! Whatever you're doing is working!
Stay strong I lost my brother in 2012 so I know how bad you miss them
I would love love love to see a video on your personal 60 day glow up journey! I have personally been contemplating doing my own internal and external glow up but struggled with the “how to”… So please please please upload that video!
Omgggg I love you & so happy I found your channel! Your like the big sister I always wanted & the mom I wish I would of had share her knowledge with me
Loving the series! When you do your breakup video, can you do a section on your stuff - how to get your stuff back, what stuff isnt worth giving up your peace for and how to have a healthy stuff giving-back/picking-up experience. Its such a weird topic but i think is where people probably mess up and "lose" their breakup
One of the benefit of collagen is the higher percentage of glycine amino acid. As you said, it’s not about replacing collagen in your skin, it’s more about supplying a source of certain amino acids that have therapeutic impact at certain levels. If you are a hot sleeper like me, taking a 20g dose of collagen 1 hour before bed can help you sleep. Glycine can help improve sleep quality by helping you regulate your body temperature. I take my magnesium glycinate at night as well to promote better sleep quality since I have a sleep disorder. Great video, I love topics like this.
I love the glow up challenge idea! I hope to see it on patreon. It's a productive reason to be intentional with present with yourself. Hopefully that sentence made sense. So often last year I found myself not being intuitive with myself which is actually very out of character but nevertheless damage was done so to speak. Since January I've slowly had motivation to take better care of myself. One thing I do most weekdays especially, is take baths. It's a lovely escape after work to decompress and wind down whilst actually re energizing and giving me the gumption to do things like make a yummy dinner. Also I've really stepped up my body care game! Thanks for adding to the inspiration 🥰 I will have to check cleanser habits and see if I notice a difference. Love to you Whitney 💛 thanks for the enrichment as always and you're looking especially lovely 😘 I aspire 😜
Last Monday I finally started working out again. That day I already felt so much better about myself. I haven’t missed a workout yet, and even on days I don’t feel motivated or am depressed over my situation, I’ll at the very least go out for a walk. I need to learn to apply falsies. I have really good lashes, but I also have sensitive eyes. The condensation from breathing and the mask makes my mascara look horrible. I hate waterproof mascara.
Falsies in my opinion at this point for me are way easier and faster than mascara and curling. I just pop em on.
Yes on the 60 day glow up challenge 💕
I've been through some stuff and need some help in my glow up and healing 💕💕
Everyone sort of let themselves go with COVID. It's good to be reminded to take care of ourselves
I took my beauty routine to another level during Covid ....there's no pyjamas and dirty sweaters indoors ...NEVER.
I can listen to you all day long ! So inspiring ♡♡♡
Hi Whitney! I just wanted to say, I'm really enjoying your channel! I feel you are happier now that you are creating videos you truly love 💕 and I'm taking every advice you suggest because I can relate a lot. I'm 32 and also started to change how I'm doing my makeup, how I treat my skin, cleanse etc
Last year was a growing year for my tattoo studio and for myself as well and now that I have a more stable income, I can put some of it into my health. I used to exercise at home but now I joined the gym, I can afford better creams, clothes and it makes me feel so good. I think the way you present yourself at work and at home it's so important. Do it for you, I say, and the perspective of the ones around you will change so much 🙂
*when you stay ready, you never have to get ready* ❤️it
Love this Whit ❤
Hey Whitney! Have you come across an eye product that could work the opposite way? Something to plump up the under eye for those of us over 45 that are losing volume?? Thanks!!
Since last summer when i started self tanning, i started making sure to use an oil and or a moisturizer everywhere every day (except when I'm applying it). I started exfoliating regularly too and this winter i didn't get eczema all over my arms like i normally do.
Facial massage is great if you have sinus issues. Just massaging under the eyes, on top of the cheek bones and between the eyes can help reduce Swelling and help clear out sinuses. I highly recommend it just to feel better, not just look better. I honestly think so many years of my acne issues were lack of good cleansing. I still have some hormonal acne, but cleansing properly helps the rest of the month for me.
I’m 32 and I have long blonde extensions and long nails and I lab it lol. I think sometimes women in their thirties start to look like like they give up when they stop doing the things they loved in their twenties.
I take Vitamin D supplements daily now because last Thanksgiving I went to the E.R. & passed a kidney stone! I didn't have enough vitamin D to break down all the calcium.
What lip products are you using in this video? Looks natural and great! Thanks!
You’ve inspired me to get in to the facial yoga regimen! Loving latest theme on self care 💜💜💜
Whitney I found your channel about a year ago now. And thank you so much for the great content. All of the videos are relatable. And yes please please do a video for mature skin. I’m 52 and African American And would like that also.
I love this video it's totally relatable!
thank you!
I've sort of glanced through some of your older videos. I'm not sure what you've done but you look prettier now than then. Not that you looked bad in the past, of course. More like ... You're more comfortable in your skin? Or maybe you figured out the looks that work best for you & you've refined it & tweaked it as necessary. ❤️
Meanwhile, I'm pushing 50 & have no idea what 'look' works best for me so I look like a trainwreck most days.
Lol. I’m sure it’s not that bad
I love your selfcare videos.
Love the idea of a 60 day spring refresh. Your content is always inspiring. The vitamin link is not working. It’s takes me to your influencer log on page.
Fixed it xoxox
Thank you! Happy to support your channel this way🙂
I take the collagen peptides with hyaluronic acid BUT I have osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis - I think if you have connective tissue disease it's worth plunking down some change on, plus my hair and nails look freaking bomb! 😜
these products have high quantity of heavy metals. there’s a couple of studies on this. i got meniscal tears in my knees while taking them for workout. months later, still walking with a limp.
Just finished my high maintenance shower routine. Can't wait to hear your tips and tricks 😻 btw that top is super cute on you
You should try a dry cleanse. You do not wet your face. I use the CeraVie cleansing bar. I leave my face dry, wet the bar work into a lather and then apply to my face and keep massaging my face until the foam is dry on my skin then I apply water foam my face cleanse for a few more seconds and rinse. Works like a charm.
A glow up challenge is something that I definitely need right now!
Glow 👏🏻 up 👏🏻 video 👏🏻 please 👏🏻
Ok 🙂
Love your message!!!! KEEP IT COMING
Hey whitney I lately have been wanting to get the t3 curling iron and was wondering if you would recommend me to get it or which one , love your videos ❣️
Just found you and you're a god send! Perfect timing and yes absolutely love to follow your own personal glow up.
Loving this video! I have been doing a body routine. Super simple I just simply use a lotion when I get out of the shower. I will either use cereve, neutrogena hydraboost ( I actually use the body one on my face as well) or I use Vaseline intensive care. I get the fragrance free lotions. I put it on damp skin and my skin has been so much softer hydrated. Because I do this, I haven’t dealt with dry skin this winter. I use lash serum but not constantly. I cut my long hair that I worked hard to grow out. It was beautiful and healthy, but I cut it because I had neck surgery last year. So I’m currently growing it out. It was much easier having shorter hair during my recovery. I take 10,000 units of vitamin D3, milk thistle, and apple cider vinegar supplements every day. I bought calm and it really helps. I’ve just kinda slacked off. I need to start back. I might try the supplements you got from Amazon when I’m out of calm. I think I sound definitely like to include more steps and do a 90 day glow up! I’m one that doesn’t use eye creams only because I don’t see a difference in most, but I will probably try that caffeinated one. I deal with puffiness.
Whitney, I have the same issues, with the puffiness under my eyes and hooded eyes. I agree with you on the Caffeine in products. Not sure if you've tried The Ordinary Caffeine Solution 5% for around the eyes. It works wonders for me and it's under $10.
In Re: Facial Yoga. Nope. Think about it logically, wrinkles are caused by movement. Laugh lines from laughing. Smile lines and crows feet also from laughing (ie movement).
Facts of life: as we age, our faces move forward and down. Our bones start sinking in and separating from fat pads allowing the fat pads to droop. Bio stimulators and skin plumping help keep and produce more collagen. Collagen is your face’s best friend.
Love this! Yes as I get older I focus more on nurturing my natural beauty and save my money for other things. I’d rather buy a lash serum to use for 6mo then spend $$$ on biweekly lash extensions that really look fake. If I need a pair of lashes for an event I’ll glue them on thank you. Also I have noticed a huge change in my skin from avoiding caffeine, replacing with antioxidant rich dandelion tea. I also started to drink acv regularly. These were pretty trendy at one time to but I noticed it actually works if you stick with it. I’ve also noticed how I can skip foundation if I just use an facial oil under my sunscreen. Once it melts in about 30 min later my skin looks incredible!
I’m a patron. Yes to the glow up challenge. Really there are no reasons not to do it-who wouldn’t benefit from a glow up? Also, you’re beautiful. Like I’ve always thought that but I was extra struck today.
That’s all, have a great day!!!
The CeraVe SA Lotion for Rough and Bumpy Skin is the absolute BEST body lotion. Even the skin on my elbows, knees, and ankles feels literally as soft as baby skin. I have never used a body lotion that has made my skin this soft. It works so well, i've been tempted to use it on my face as well.
new sub! ADORE your content 😍😍😍
I don't comment a lot but I can tell you facial yoga works! 😊👏 Your inspirational Whitney.
Yes a video on your glow up!!!!!!
