♡MUSIC:
Most of my music is from Hooksounds. www.hooksounds...
I use a lot of Nicolai Heidlas Music in my videos, find him on Hooksounds.
Thank you guys for all your amazing support! xxx
From someone else who puts stress on themselves, be gentle to yourself. It's ok not to be totally organized. Just take on what you can.
Thank you❤
please don’t feel pressured to deliver a certain level of content (by no way meaning your content isn’t already a great standard)! your audience are here because of how genuine and natural your videos are and how they make us feel because of that, i love the little community here and personally wouldn’t want it any other way x
thank you so much ❤
I'm turning 26 this February and I completely understand the stress and pressure to have everything sorted out. Like for some reason over 25 means you are an adult-adult. Wishing us both grace through navigating older 20s and coming out of a pandemic that no one knows how to fully recover from.
I'm in my 30s and definitely don't have everything together. Don't feel like a "adult" either
You’re absolutely right ❤ sending you love too 🙏🏼
Okay as someone who used to be a complete mess and managed to sort her life out relatively well, I HAVE TIPS. Obviously I can't guarantee it'll work, but these have really helped me and I hope they can help you too
I totally know what you mean about Christmas! I’m super sentimental and have always loved Christmas. Even though things will always change, what helps me is
1) make the whole Christmas period, and Christmas Eve especially, magical and bring back childhood memories. Whether that’s watching certain movies, arranging presents under the tree, baking with Christmas music blaring! (for example I always go to the same church on Christmas Eve I used to go to as a child where I have memories looking out the window at the sky trying to spot Santa!)
2) Start making your own traditions! Big or small. (Eg we always make a ham dinner for just us two Christmas week, and look forward to that. We also arrange a night to invite both our parents over for drinks)
3) For people you don’t get to see Christmas Day, invite them round for a cosy hot choc night.
4) Decorating! Embrace being able to decorate your own home, and go all out! There’s never enough fairy lights 😉
Basically make sure you’re surrounded by the magic of Christmas for the whole period. It keeps the enjoyment and takes a lot of the “pressure” off Christmas Day.
I had a really bad end to 2022… my Gma who I was the caretaker of died Nov 15, my mom (only 65) had to be put in a memory care nursing home 3 days later, and now my uncle is hurriedly trying to kick my husband and I out of our house that my Gma bought so we’d be close by, not giving us anytime to find somewhere to go. All that to say, Soph you are a welcome distraction for both the hubs and I.
And if you feel like sending me a box makeup is my outlet and it would be appreciated… but I’m in the US.
Happy 2023 to everyone, it’s gotta be a better year.
Omg soph it’s like your reading my brain aloud! I completely understand where your coming from and tbh it’s so nice to hear someone who feels the exact same as me!! We got this girl!
We got this ❤❤
Please be kind to yourself. I'd wager most viewers feel the same as me - I don't care what content we see on your vlog channel, I just like "hanging out" with you
Also, I struggle with depression, there doesn't have to be a reason to feel low, it just happens. There's so much pressure with this new year, new you nonsense, you're amazing as you are, you are not an iPhone who needs upgraded every year. You're doing great, keep being you.
Also, I'm 39 and still don't have my shit together. Neither do any of my friends. I don't think I ever will, but I'm gonna do my best to be my best self.
January is such a depressing miserable month post Christmas. I remember last year you didn't feel great in January. I'm ready for summer sunshine and counting down the days! I'm the opposite to you, hyper organised & tidy. I can't sit still & relax if everything isn't done & in place. That causes issues as I never sit still & relax & burn myself out often. So I love watching declutter & organising videos. Much love xx
As an Aussie, some destinations I recommend depending on time of year would be the Southern Lights in Tasmania, Field of Lights at Uluru, Cable Beach in Broome and Lake Argyle in Kununurra 💗🇦🇺
I find myself gravitating toward more mundane everyday routine vlogs rather than travel because it just feels like sharing my day with someone if that makes sense ❤
I feel you. I can’t believe I’m turning 27 in July. Like what. Where does the time go. I can totally relate on the wanting to do more traveling this year.
I am currently unemployed and feel like now is the perfect time to do some traveling. Your only young once. Might as well make the most of it.
I just need to learn to be ok with the fact that everyone else thinks it’s a waste of my money to travel. That I should be saving all my money for a house.
Not that I’d ever blow all my money. I’m just a big people pleaser and put others above me all the time. Miss out on or not do stuff I’d like because of what they think. Like the traveling.
So this I’m going to try really hard to put all that aside and travel. Because that’s what I really want to do/ feel like what I should be doing right now.
So look. I’m almost 27 and I have nothing figured out lol. And that’s ok
I agree, Christmas is just not the same. This year was fun because my son was 16 months old at Christmas and he was just over-joyed at everything.
A box of goodies would be fun!
I have been catching up on a lot of organising myself recently. I've had a bit of tough time in my life as well, where I just did the absolute necessities when it comes to organising, so basically out of sight out of mind. After a while every cupboard/closet I opened was a problem and I had no systems in place whatsoever.
What really helped me personally was taking time to think about my systems, whether that was for storing items or for remembering to do things of starting new habits. This way it's a bit harder at the beginning, because things first get messier, before they get better. However you will only have to think about it once.
Having a permanent place for things also really sped up tidying for me. Before I would change my systems out so frequently that there was no system in place anymore and 80% of me tidying was just thinking about where to put something and now I just have to put it where it belongs and that saves sooo much time.
This also works for other things, I never used to have a good overview of my finances and it would always take me forever to figure something out. Now that I have taken the time to find a system that works good for me, it literally takes me 5-10 minutes every week and I know exactly how my finances are looking.
I realised that the most time I spend on organising, was just me stressing about the lack of organisation and being overwhelmed. I took it step by step, cupboard by cupboard, sometimes even shelf by shelf and that really helped me.
edit:
I just finished the video and would love to be selected for a box hehe 👀
I totally get the overwhelming feeling atm! I’m turning 25 this year and I think a lot of it comes from the missed years cos of covid! I’ve been taking passionflower tablets to help with my anxiety and sleeping and feel like they’ve been a huge help, they’re in Holland and Barrett. Hope you’re feeling better soph, I will literally watch anything you vlog sometimes it’s just comforting to have on even if you’re not doing anything exciting 🫶🏻
Thank you for the recommendation!! Hope your anxiety gets better soon and you have a great year ❤
Totally having the same vibes about 2023. Brighter days on the horizon though 😊
Definitely relatable. I had the same feelings last year and tackled them this year, feeling a lot better 😄 don't feel like you 'fail' when asking someone for help. I always say: 'there is no such thing as a stupid question, it's stupid not to ask the question'. It can only help you in the long run :)
Would love to win some make up goodies! 😊
Some of us love vlogs like this, you really don't need to be having big huge adventures to vlog x With Christmas it changes a lot of times. When my kids were young it was all exciting again, then again when teens, again now adults and the grandkids are tots (I'm 38 we all started young lol) every year when it's different it feels like it hasn't been Christmas but then the next Christmas you build on the one you had and make a new super one. It does seem to go so much quicker now though. Anyway enough rambling, my one piece of advice with the getting organised now I'm an old wise granny, is don't even sweat it, it really doesn't matter, pop important things on your phone calendar and count the wins. Honestly I wish I knew in my 20's how much stuff I would no longer care about or would seem important just a few years later. Wasted so much time worrying about stupid stuff and trying to improve myself when actually I was already a pretty good me lol. Would love a goody box too x
Thank you for this message 😌 you’re absolutely right ❤
Agree about the plus 2 weeks time off.. Feels like christmas just slipped away or something. It's so sad and I was shoked when I didn't feel the christmas spirit at all last year. It's a big deal for us who love that time of the year
I really do miss Christmas as a child. I miss my grandmother. She would always come over Christmas morning to watch my sister and I open gifts. I live very far from all my family now too, so I don’t see them over the holidays now. I don’t have my family and friends and I usually have to work around the holiday. It’s just depressing! I miss the magic of the season.
i feel you! for me being present really does help a lot. as my sister would say, what's on the outside, is in the inside and in reverse! tidying your room/house can help tremendously!
also would looove the makeup box! ❤️
I definitely agree with Xmas this year. I feel like I am such a festive person and when everyone else isn't as festive it makes me feel less festive. One of the many reasons I can't wait to have children, because then I can kinda live the excitement and Xmas spirit through them. I would definitely say if you are still feeling shitty further into the year to get some help, I definitely think it helps to just kind of air everything you're thinking, in a way it helps me to make sense of it all. We're all here for you anyways girl.
P.s that is a shit ton of make up 😅
January is such a blurr month, I can understand wanting to hold onto Christmas for a little longer. Would love to see how you made your own Bubble T. That was a huge box of makeup bit's at the end.. someone will be very lucky.
Omg yes to Australia! My auntie lives in Melbourne and I’m hoping to go back this year too!✨ Also I would LOVE to try some of the makeup you’re donating I need to go on a makeup no buy myself but it’s too hard😂
I love organising things, get a list book! Tick off the goals, tick off your to do list that will help you xx
Something that really helped me feel more organized/productive was putting on a twitch streamer who was doing “study with me” because body doubling really helps keep me on track!
Omg I had been feeling down too at the end of the year, and the beginning of 2023 wasn’t good either. I hope you are feeling better now😅❤
I think it's so so normal for us to feel down after Christmas and into the new year, we have all that build up and the expectation to be excited and happy 100% of the time and then January comes and boom! All gone. Don't put pressure on yourself to feel some type of way 🌻 Ps I would LOVE to be considered for the beauty box giveaway pretty please!💖
Christmas will once again be exciting and full of wonder, when you have a family. It's the circle of life.
One thing someone said to me that seems to have stuck is "don't put it down, put it away". Makes it easier to stay on top of things!! Good luck ❤️ x
I felt the same with the "christmas not being as it was" thing until my brother got childer so now the joy on their face at christmas really brings back that feeling 😊 I also really need be more organized and people always say get a good daily planner and write down every little thing you need to do in the beginning of each day but I'm even too lazy to do that 😅 also would be very happy to recieve the box of makeup 🥰 love ya 💛
I really feel you with the christmas stuff, i also dont like changes en being grown up, I just miss my childhood soooo much, the feeling of good hope, and faith, and no responsibilitys, and I wich I realized that much more at that time😓 feels like life only gets worse as you get older, and your best days are over, and never return.
I entered the year the exact same way. I've just moved house and there's so so so much I want to do with this place and everything's just overwhelmed me completely!
I've come to realise now im getting older (lol) the pressure of everything and everyone shouldn't be a dark cloud over me anymore..
Do what makes you happy and take the time you need to process and reset ✨️ you're doing wonderfully!
Ps this is the year I'm going to put more effort into my creative eyeliner as I miss having the time doing what I love!
I feel like as you get older Christmas just isn't as magical. I spend time over Christmas just spending time with my friends and family that I don't have normally in the year. I've had a really rubbish start to the year and a bit of make up to play around with would be really amazing. Your videos give me a little break from my reality so I just want to thank you so much for that. Keep being you.
I love a big mug too, and all my mugs are mismatched I think it's nice. Thanks for being honest about Christmas and Jan, such a weird time of year. I would love a lucky box, you're so kind. Hope 2023 is good for us all x
I absolutely love your vlogs! I'm so sorry this year has started off on the rough side, but it's totally understandable. Adulthood changes your views on so many things and can make you wonder why was I in such a rush to get here?! I'm sure you will find your balance and things will level out. Here's to hoping 2023 is a great year for you!!
Thank you so much, I hope it’s a great year for you too❤❤
I’ve been feeling the same past few weeks. On one hand not wanting anything to change and being in my comfort zone, on the other wanting to be proud of something in the end of 2023. Like I want to remember it. Probably have to find the golden middle. Also I would like the participate in the giveaway ❤
I totally get the depression around Christmas not feeling the same anymore. It used to always feel so magical when I was younger but once I moved away (and my mom sold our childhood home) it just hasn't been the same.
(Also, I would love to be considered for a mishmash giveaway box, it is very generous of you. ☺️)
As simple as it sounds, I find to do lists are a game changer, they stop me from forgetting things and I find ticking things off very motivating. Ps, I would love a make up bundle….. ❤❤ xx
Love putting on these videos whilst I tidy my room, nothing as comforting as a chatty vlog. Heres to a great 2023, i'd love a lucky dip make-up box that sounds so cool!
me too i feel like im not ready to move on onto another year coz i feel like are still many things left to do but still thankful that i've reached 2023!! my goal for this year this to grow my channel, i've finally started my channel last year after many years of pushing it back and i have never been happier🥳🥳 also i would love to receive some makeup from soph!! been watch soph since she was still living with her parents and she would switch out her hair color frequently 😁😁
I'm glad I wasn't the only one feeling pooh these past few weeks and I totally feel the same about Christmas. My nephews do make it so fun. After losing my dad in Jan last year, things are starting to get better this year so I'm very hopeful for some great things.
I would love to receive a lucky dip box of beauty products please Soph it would really cheer me up after the pooh year I had last year . And really make me smile 😁 xxxxx
I’ve felt overwhelmed myself coming in to 2023, and I think as you get older everything becomes a bit more daunting! I’m definitely not the best with change 😅 I’d love to be considered for one of the beauty bundle boxes please 💗
I can totally relate with the low mood/motivation issues at the moment. I’m a nurse and it’s been a struggle at work lately which then affects home life. Plus the fact I interviewed for a new job the other day but didn’t get it so that was another thing to add to the pile 😓
January is such a rubbish month, just need to try and shake myself out of this rut.
Also, I’m exactly the same with ASMR too. I’ve probably listened to it for about 4 years at this point and I feel like I’m conditioned to it now 😂
P.S would love to be considered for the box of makeup bits. I used to spend hours playing around with makeup in my free time, it was almost like therapy. I think having new things to explore would motivate me again.
Looking forward to more vlog content ❤
Its still winter we are meant to slow down in the colder darker months, don't put too much pressure on yourself. I had this realisation with Christmas a few years ago, me and my partner have started are own little traditions to create our own Christmas so it still feels special.
P.S I would love to give a new home to any of your unwanted products
I feel exactly the same way about Christmas, I’m 28 and still get sad every year that it hasn’t been the same as it used to be because it was always my favourite time of year and I’ve never been a summer person, my mental health was so bad beginning of this January and I didn’t understand why, It’s always a relief to know you aren’t alone in how you are feeling though so Thankyou for sharing soph ❤
I own a half dozen sleep headphone/headbands and they're amazing!! Highly recommend. In the US you can get them for like $15 on Amazon and they make all the difference for me. My partner snores sometimes - it drowns that out... I listen to meditations or adult bedtime stories and it really does a great job decluttering my brain so I can drift off to sleep. You should def try it!
One of the things I love about vlogs is they are just an insight in to what people get up to, doesn’t have to be exciting stuff all the time. It’s nice to just see people being authentic which you always are in any videos you put out. It must be hard trying to keep posting content on all the different social media pages and having 2 TH-cam channels as well, so don’t feel too pressured to do it. Would watch your videos anyway 😊
Hi Soph! I totally get the Christmas nostalgia and sadness. I feel like time just goes by and we don't notice before it's a new year again. It is stressfull and sad😔I think we just need to try and live in the moment and enjoy every step of the way🥰 It will get better!❤️
P.S. I would love a little lucky dip box!😍
Been subbed since 2016 and cant believe we're now in 2023 like how 😂😬 Ive had to take mental health leave from work myself so i understand for some reason its super hard to prioritise yourself when it shouldnt be💕 Remember to be kind to yourself and do things that make your day better no matter how small! 💕
As someone who lives near Nashville I’m so excited for your vlog there! I’d definitely recommend taking the drive to pigeon Forge & maybe even doing Dollywood! You’d have a BLAST
Christmas might feel a little less "special" now, and it's ok to feel down about it. It's still great to spend time with family of course, but I know what you mean about how it's different. If/when you have kids, you might find that you can experience holidays in a fun way through them. My son was 2.5 years old this Christmas, and seeing the expressions on his face when he opened gifts was just so precious. Wishing you a great year! 🙂
Love how real you are, your videos never fail make us giggle.. im 37 in couple of weeks my life is far from together.. diagnosed with ptsd 6yrs ago followed by ME and possible fibromyalgia the pcos spend lot my days homebound in pain.. I rediscovered my love of art through makeup in lockdown can't do it everyday as I'd love to but it makes me happy when I do you and many others inspire me altho doubt myself being old and not to beauty standards so don't feel good enough to make anything from it... really struggling with lil no support emotionally physically financially.. feel like giving up.. keep being you x
I totally relate to what you told in the beginning of the video. I had some big achievements in the first couple of weeks of January, and I was really happy and proud of myself, but at the same time I was just sad and demotivated, without any reason. Now I'm also a bit better, and I'm quite determined to make this year a good one, also because in November, if everything goes well, I am going to graduate from uni.
Side note,would love a makeup box. I told myself I wouldn't buy anything beauty related until June of this year, because I want to save up some money, but at the same time I still want to try new stuff, because I love makeup so much.
Lots of love from Italy ♥️♥️
The way I stay organized is asking myself, "will my future self thank me for this?" It helps to take a pause and reflect on the choice that you make in the moment. If the task is too much for you to deal with at that time, then give yourself a deadline and put it on a To-Do list or a calendar event on your phone. I also just wanted to say that while I think it's great to have goals for yourself in the new year, "new years resolutions" and the concept of a "New Year" is all society driven. The months in the year are all relative and so is the passage of time! Try re-framing your mindset around it and instead of thinking of it as too much pressure, think of it as a clean slate and a fresh start! It's all about perspective and the way you frame your attitude around it. Don't worry about what anyone else thinks and always put yourself first with your goals. We love you and want the best for you, Soph!
I feel this a lot soph! I'm 27 this year and have so much stress and pressure on myself for not knowing where i want to be in life. it's so hard not to but going to try harder this year to be kinder to myself, do more things i enjoy, and not stress about timing 🥰
Love how honest you always are! My husband and I have been married for 17 years and we have learned that we work better apart but make sure to make time for the two of us, so I totally get you! I would love a box of makeup!
You're such a comfort TH-camr for me, the realness of everything you post/talk about.
I'd love a box full makeup/whatever is in there x
I had it all planned out, how this year was gonna be, then right on the first week everything went south. Quit my job, got a new one... a bunch of other things happened etc just dont fight it, give yourself permission to feel what you are feeling, accept it and then move on. We will all be fine😊
After years and years of watching, you’re doing an amazing job and don’t beat yourself up for feeling a little scatty from time to time! We’re all human! Also I’d love to receive one of the mixed makeup boxes from you!! 💗
I loved this video and really related to feeling sad about Christmas and the new year. I always feel pressure around new year and don’t massively enjoy it, this year I tried to just focus on what is good right now and not what is to come.
Also I’d absolutely love one of those makeup boxes! Lots of cool products in there 🤩
I was always scared to get help for my mental health and wouldn’t talk about it. Now I get CBT and talk openly about how I feel and it’s made a huge difference. Don’t let the nerves hold you back. No matter how small the issue is you get reassurance it’s not irrelevant ❤ I’d love a goody bag please, I’m always going after mystery boxes 😂
Hey Soph I understand how u feel sometimes I feel like I really need to sort my life out a bit too which I know is normal but you know. Love ur videos and ur revolution collection! Would like a goody box but im sure there is a lot of people who have asked! Look forward to seeing any future videos! xx
Happy 2023! Totally understand the feelings about Christmas, hope it all gets better
Christmas definitely isn’t going to be the same again as it used to be, I feel like growing up is very sad. I like how your giving makeup bits away instead of wasting it. It would love to receive some 😁
I relate so much with you talking about nostalgia, and how one feels afraid and sad when they see time passing by and things change... I go through that stage pretty frequently and it actually makes me feel stuck in life... Like I am not going with the flow... I am turning 25 this Sunday and it's like, I wanna go back, you know? Adulting is hard man. Nobody prepares you for it. Christmas is still my favourite time of the year, but I get you Soph, it is not as exciting sadly 🥲
This January has been a rollercoaster... I have had exams from my master's degree, so it has been busy... I just hope 2023 to be a good year. Let's do it! Let's get our life together! 💪🏼👏🏼
Gosh, I wish I could go to Australia too! I will be waiting for your vlogs if you get to go 🤭
Sign me up for the make-up box ✌🏼😌
I'm the same age as you, and completely relate about Christmas, was funny though as I was saying to my family that I feel like everyone in general just used to be a bit more energetic and enthusiastic on Christmas, and they said well we are all getting older now. I guess you don't really think about it at the time, but aunts and uncles etc are also growing up and their life/ priorities are probably very different now than they were 10-15 years ago.
I have the headband headphones for listening to ASMR, and they’re the best thing I’ve ever got myself, I love them!!
Thanks for being so real and honest. Here's to a great 2023! I would love to be considered for a box of bits please xx
Wow you literally summed up how I feel, feeling guilty for not having something to be sad about! I also struggle with organisation and am always late for things and I often feel really lazy for it but I think it is psychological, so if you do get help, please share the secret to cracking it 😂 love your videos and would love to try some new makeup bits in your jazzy box ❤
Hi Soph! I hope you are doing better and having a lovely start to 2023. For the falling a sleep thing, you can try a white noise machine! ofc James would also hear it, but it has a variety of relaxing sounds, you can set it up to turn off automatically whenever you want, and i hear it works great!
Also i would love to get the box of goodies :)
Honestly, I've had guite a wierd start to the new year as well. Haven't been this anxious for a while, and trying to get trough my exams does not help.
But putting on makeup always feels so therapeutic, even if I just take a pic, and get it off immediately after. Dont judge, I know I'm not the only one!😅 So honestly I'd love to have some of the products you can't use, it would mean so so much😇
Love you lots Soph, your videos always make me smile! Thinking of you at the start of this new year💕
Love this video soph, the January blues is such a struggle for so many people
Fab to see you back hun. I'm glad you are feeling a bit brighter...x I would love to receive a box of goodies from you..thanks for the opportunity x happy 2023 x
I feel the same about Christmas especially now my sister has her own child.
I love your videos and vlogs, even if you put a few random clips from different days together! Would love a makeup box 🥰
totally understood you Soph at the beginning of your video. I felt so overwhelmed by everything beginning of January, but now I feel like everything's going better. thank you for being so transparent
Hey Soph! I totally understand how you felt coming into 2023! I'm going to university in September and I'm so sad to leave my family and best friends! So much is happening this year and it's overwhelming but very exciting! Stay positive and I hope 2023 is amazing for you! Lots of love and support ❤️🥰
Good luck with university!! I’m sure you will have an amazing time ❤❤
This vlog was so relatable! The January feeling sucks 😢 I would love a box of makeup! Have watched you since the beginning and your videos bring me so much joy 💜💜💜
Love these cosy vlogs!! I totally relate to you feeling sad about Christmas, I have the same thing. Seeing my parents get older every year breaks my heart 🥲 would love a makeup box, love that you give what you don’t use to your subscribers ❤️
I 100% feel that 2023 started off meh. Not that I’m a TH-camr or anything but I used to quite enjoy posting on instagram and my other socials. Like I used to think it was fun to take a picture of anything that I thought was worthy throughout my day like if I made or went out and got a cute latte, if I cooked or baked or ate out anything yummy, I would share what I was read or watching, I would share my cat and the adventures my husband and I went on etc. but after Christmas I took a little break that has extended into a long break and here I am with DM’s and texts from friends and family asking if I’m okay because I’ve gone silent on social media. Some people are just nosey but some say they miss my posts… I’m thinking once spring comes, maybe I’ll start up again. I mean I’m doing fine and I’m still doing and enjoying all the same things, still love cooking and baking and eating food and my cat and reading and a good latte etc.
In regards to being organized write a list of things you want to achieve to make you feel more organized don't put a time limit to avoid the stress and pressure...
Just maybe declutter each room in your house over time to help clear your mind then get into a habit maybe every Sunday evening to pre plan what you are going to film content wise maybe first week do 2 weeks in advance so you are always a week infront to avoid more pressure 😀 😊
Feeling the exact same way. Feeling like I haven’t achieved anything major in 2022 and starting this new year I don’t feel ready for it. Wish Christmas could go on for longer!! 💖
Would love to be included in your makeup giveaway💞
I relate so much to this! Especially Christmas not being the same it has definitely been a strange couple of months, also yes come to Australia it's beautiful here x
100% understand how you felt about missing the way Christmas used to feel like as a kid. This year was the first Christmas in our first home for me and my boyfriend and it was just so strange, exciting but weird. After spending most of last year renovating the house, one thing I wanted was to have a Christmas up. It made me realise how fast the year goes and how fast life can go by. Really didn't want to take my tree down either, got a bit emotional doing it. Super sad I know, down side to being an emotional person I cry at anything 😂 Love this chatty style vlogs btw, super chill it's like your having a little chat with us. It's nice ❤️
Definitely felt the same way as you this Jan and it’s nice hear it coming from someone else, I’ve felt like such an idiot for being so sad for no reason. * would love a lil box of makeup too!
it’s so lovely to hear someone speaking what you’re feeling👑also I’d love a random box if they’re still going!
i hope this year treats u well, even if it didn't have the best start. i think january is always a bit of a sad time, sending u lots of love! also always love your content regardless if it's "exciting" or not, love the daily life too.
(p.s. would love to get the goodies, times are hard and some of my makeup is starting to expire)
Would love a wee box of makeup! Also I can't sleep without listening to a bedtime story the Sleepy podcast is my go to! Love these chill real vlogs!
Being a mam I can guarantee your Christmases will get better. The kids getting so excited for santa. Christmas magic comes back x I'm never shy from asking (shy bairns get nowt) but would be thrilled to receive a box. Fingers crossed. Sending love
I definately understand the stress of wanting to feel like you have your life together... I genuinely think 99% of people don't, so I just don't worry too much about it... Or at least I try not to!
Also I'd love the chance to get a box of goodies!!
I get the anxiety of a new year! I feel such pressure to get my life together also! Just taking one day at a time and trying to make good decisions 😁 you got this ❤️
Would you film an updated make up collection video? They are my comfort videos at the moment, love seeing what everyone has in their collection 😂
Would love a box of stuff!! You're doing great, don't beat yourself up about being down 💜
i’m so glad you’re not just adhering to the ‘new year, new me’ rhetoric. your videos are amazing and whatever you post, we will always love it! happy new year! also i am interested in one of the boxes haha 🌟🌟
Love watching you, your so lovely and true to yourself. I love that you and James do gaming me and my husband are the same we sometimes play together too or take it in turns on his console so nice to see others do this too. I would love to be picked for one of your makeup boxes, my daughter is always taking my makeup 😆 not that I'm good at putting it on I watch your videos and do try but it never looks as good as yours does. I'm hoping 2023 is a better year as have not had a very good year at all. Xx
Soph you’re gonna ADOREEE Nashville!! I went for my 21st and it was literally the best week of my life 🫢
Totally get your feelings about not being ready for 2023. Love this chilled vlog. I'd love a box of make up bits that you can't use 😘
Hey Soph! Been watching you for many years and always love the content you put out from makeup to holidays and to milestones like getting your house and all. January blues is a BIG thing but I believe this will pass for you and others who are struggling too. And I love to see you're giving away make up for a new home instead of throwing them out! I would be interested and very lucky if I got some products from yourself :) Be gentle on yourself and you have supporters who want wants best for you x
Happy new year Soph! I have found that just doing a little bit of what needs to be done each day really helps and stops me feeling really overwhelmed. Also you are not alone with needing some noise to fall asleep to! I am the same and have been like it for nearly 21 years now, currently mine is history podcasts!!
I would love a makeup box from yourself as I have tried quite a few of the products you have recommended over the years 😊
P.s your revolution collab lipsticks and the lip balms are my current go tos
I completely understand what you mean about not feeling the year so far. I feel the same way, although I feel like it's also one of those things that has been building up for a while. I moved to London 6 years ago, never really found myself enjoying it and am just becoming more and more resentful towards it. It's of course a lovely city to visit, but I'm just really not feeling it for living anymore. However my partner absolutely refuses to even consider moving away from London (born and raised here), so I'm just really feeling pretty down all around. It's upsetting how I moved from an entirely different country to be here with them, have really given it a good go - went to school, have worked multiple jobs, made friends and all that. But they won't even consider doing the same for me, and it's making me feel like our relationship is a bit unbalanced. On top of not having great work balance at the moment (working in a field I love, but currently only part time as it's within tourism and heritage so closed for the winter season) and having to work 2 other jobs simultaneously to make ends meet, I just feel like I'm nearing a wall faster and faster.
Ah, it's good to get stuff off ones chest sometimes.
Hopefully things we'll start looking up for the both of us soon, and we'll figure out the paths we want and how to make them and whatnot. It's just gone January, so really. Lots of time for the year to improve.
Love your videos always. Watched so many though that I've now had to move on to really old ones. Just watched one from nearly 4 years ago where "baby" Soph was talking about how she never contours her nose. Ah, how times change!
I got the same feeling as you did over christmas!! I really enjoyed it but I also realized that it's never gonna be the same as when I was a kid and that sucks - even though I'm 27 and should be over it by now, lol.
