As someone who physically cannot have children, I always find that openly questioning why women don't have children is one of the rudest and cruelest behaviors to have towards women. Our value in society is not chalked up to the children we do/don't have. Smh.
@catherinelynnfraser2001 thank you! I have thick skin, and thankfully, I don't want children, so infertility isn't as devastating as it is for others. There are so many women who desperately want children who can't, and others' judgments create additional trauma and grief. It's sad. My heart goes out to them.
EXACTLY. People don’t know if the person has tried for a long time and couldn’t get pregnant or suffered miscarriages or had a child and lost the child, or doesn’t want children which is completely fine! People are so rude! Just because someone is married doesn’t mean they should have kids. It annoys me when people get married and instantly people ask - when are you having kids? Like chill! Jeesh! And unless you’re going to be financially supporting and emotionally supporting said children with that person, it’s NONE of your business! People are ridiculous 😂
I agree completely. I have had 2 losses now and desperately want a baby, it hurts like hell when people ask me why I'm not pregnant yet or "when are the babies coming?!" People need to mind their business.
OMG.....as a 56 yr old woman without children.... no regrets. I will join in the chorus of other ladies on this thread to say that I am tired of smiling politely through that rude, invasive and judgmental inquiry. It’s personal, it’s non ya business....I’m so happy that you love being a Mom and are fulfilled in that experience. Leave the rest of us alone. It’s always other women....shame on you. Angie, cheers to you for the graceful and loving way you spoke to those assumptions that should not have been said out loud. ❤
Exactly. I agree. It's not conceited to like yourself. Knowing your flaws and your worth with what you find acceptable about yourself is all healthy perspective. It's when you think there is no flaws and your not a regular human being like the rest of us is when it can be considered unhealthy.
As a childfree woman, I am so tired. What a stranger chooses to do with their uterus should always be off limits. The word regret gets thrown around left, right and centre. To the person who asked that question: turn it around and ask yourself how you would feel if someone questioned your choice to have children and said you would one day come to regret it. I, for one, would rather regret not having a child than raise a child I regret (and I’m so sure of it that I had my fallopian tubes removed 😉).
Plus, someone could be struggling with infertility and you don't know it. I'm child free and I've gotten the same questions. I usually respond with one of these faces - 🤢😧😵💫😳🙅♀️. I like kids, I just don't want any. I have 2 nieces and 1 great niece who is 7 so she is entering that great phase of discovery. She's so stinking cute and funny. But when I'm tired, I can send her home with her mom.
Also the argument that it is selfish not to have kids…. Having a child is probably the most selfish thing you can do. I don’t have kids and I think there are as many with kids, who regret having them, as someone without kids, who regrets not having them.
Solution: get ahold of a child and keep it locked in the basement, in case you change your mind. If you don't, it's in the basement, no one will know. If you do, you can take it out and raise it anytime.
“If you’re rude, I’m gonna show everyone that you’re rude.” YES Angie! 👏 There’s far too much “bravery” and vileness hidden behind anonymity on the internet. I’m so sick of the entitlement! Good for you for not holding back. p.s. I’m 41 with no kids and I owe NOBODY a justification.
There ist actually much more rudeness out in the real world. Where is the fight against that? Yep, no one cares. Start to fight against femicides, or the ban of abortions in the states, THAT would actually help.
I cannot believe how rude people are. Why does everyone think everyone should want children? I have never wanted children and I am great with it. Also, I agree that making diagnoses on people from the short time of what you present to us is ridiculous!!! You also appear to be one of the healthier people I have seen. I know you like candy, and we all have our vices, but everything you have ever shown for food is super healthy. OMG! You do not come off better than everyone else and your finances are none of our business. Just bc we 'choose' to purchase and/or support you doesn't make us entitled to know how much money you make out of your business ventures. You are kind for answering these questions and I understand creating content, but you are NOT required to get this personal. Soliciting some of these comments could be very negative to your personal mental health, as people love to hide behind their keyboard and tear others down due to their own insecurities. Keep up the great makeup content. I love watching your videos. You are beautiful, funny, talented, and seem to be an amazing person/friend.
EXACTLY, on all counts. I feel like I’m prob on the spectrum, and if I got the diagnosis that I was it would be a huge relief for me because all the issues I had growing up would make more sense to me…but nothing about any of her videos would EVER suggest that she’s on the spectrum, sadly I think some people want to have things in common w the creators that they love, and while there’s nothing wrong w being autistic or on the spectrum it’s very wrong to make that assumption about someone else, whether they’ve known that person all their life or just through videos online. Going into the research as much as I have, it sounds like people who might be autistic don’t know when they are sounding rude or hurtful. I’d like to give her the benefit of the doubt…but still these assumptions…aren’t what I thought they’d be at all. These feel more like attacks than assumptions…tbh…
We love you Angie! ❤❤❤ I know you’re strong, but I wish I could take whatever negative feelings you have from these assumptions off your shoulders. Sending positive vibes to you. You brighten everyone’s day w your videos and some people are so miserable that they only know how to project their problems on to someone else. They weren’t given the right mental tools to cope in life.
Me too. I used to want kids when I was younger but that was mostly because it was something I just assumed we're supposed to do but when I actually gave it some thought I realised that I can't think of a single reason why I would want to have kids. A lot of people don't even think about it, they see it as a box you tick off as go through your life.
Absolutely agree with your comments about being confident and assertive. It’s not about being cocky, it’s about acknowledging that it’s okay to love yourself. It needed to be said so thank you so much!
Let’s normalize women having confidence. Let’s normalize not everybody having kids. A psychiatrist once told me if a child hears you say ‘I look awful’ then any children around you will think they do too. It’s harmful to your self esteem to put yourself down.
Maybe I am super naive, but I always just assumed that you are who you show me you are.🤷 So far you've shown me a hard-working, confident woman who knows who she is and does her best to live authentically. You've given me no reason to question that.
I feel like anyone who’s been on your channel for more than a minute knows you’re not afraid of aging. I’ve seen you grow out your gray hair with no problem, and it’s very clear that you’re ok with the changes to your facial features that come with age. ❤
The idea that makeup = vanity is so outdated. I wear makeup almost daily but it's because I**** enjoy the artistic process and the transformation that makeup can provide. Do I need it? No. But do I enjoy it and does it bring me joy? Yes!
I just wanted you to know that I purchased your brush set about 2 or 3 months ago. I am thoroughly enjoying them. They are a really good size for my eye shape and I am very pleased with my purchase. You did a great job for your first launch. Keep the hits coming, and I hope your business grows and becomes very successful. 🤑😁💵
I love, love, love your comments about loving yourself. I was valedictorian in high school, and I always felt the need to make myself smaller, to not use big words, and to play the "dumb" girl just to fit in. It was miserable. I was worthy, but I had been pretending for so long that I forgot that. Don't change yourself to "fit in." We are smart, we are beautiful, and we are worthy of talking ourselves up. ❤ In the words of RuPaul, "If you can't love yourself, how the hell you gonna love somebody else?"
So while I obviously do not know you personally, I laughed at all of the most absurd assumptions about you as you never hit me as that type of person (i.e. thinking you're better than others). You always came off as genuine and doing what you love and enjoy and living life unapologetically, which clearly seems some keyboard warriors are having a problem. Great video as always Angie!❤
I also think that it also has something to do with the fact that Angie is a, let's be honest, objectively beautiful woman. Some people who are good looking are very aware of it and will have a "holier than thou" kind of attitude about it. But plenty of beautiful people are not that way of course, or even have low self esteem and can't see what others see at all. I just think people's own insecurities are the reason for thinking this way.
No one has ever asked me why I have children, unthinkable that anyone would question a child free woman 🤦🏾 Everything you said about confidence & loving yourself - 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 preach girl. And I need to know if ANYONE is better in another language than their native/mother tongue?? 🤔 Is that even possible?! Tfs lovely, great video & authentic Angie as always! 😘
You're so right about women not being allowed to like themselves. I gained weight recently and I'm personally not that phased, but since then everyone acts like I'm supposed to wear black potato sacks and act like a little mouse because I'm fat now. And God forbid I shrug it off when someone asks if I'm gonna diet in order to go back to my slimmer body.
How rude of them?! Why do people feel entitled to ask questions like that? I would just respond with a seemingly unrelated answer about your well-being, like, “I’m really loving my new job!” or “I’m so happy with my new hobby!” and just let them fucking wonder why you didn’t answer their question.
You are so right, women are expected to always be humble and not celebrate themselves or be proud of their achievements. I was listening to a podcast interview of Amy Poehler where she talked about how people will ask her Are you surprised you got here, this happened to you, etc and they pretty much expect her to say yes, but what she really feels is NO I am not surprised, I worked really hard to get here, to have this, etc.
I truly believe in her body, her choice. Whether it is on the matter of abortion, children or surgery. The reasons behind choices can be varied but don’t need to be explained. I love your senses of fairness and assertiveness. I wish you all the success in the world with Singe Beauty. I’m very excited for the upcoming releases. I’m surprised by some of the intrusive questions but not at all surprised by your good natured answers. Your positivity is inspiring.
14:23 I haven’t heard your answer to this question yet, but what I can say is you definitely do not give off vibes of being full of yourself. You give off the vibe of a kind and gentle person who also happens to be beautiful.
Internalised misogyny is a helluva drug, unfortunately. Also, that particular assumption just reeked of projection, especially how they didn't even phrase it specific to Angie, which was the whole point of the video, but said "most women".
Wow. People are bold. And some are just plain rude! That aside, Angie, you are such a delight! I adore your confidence, your assertiveness and your positivity! Idk why anyone would want to try to bring you, or anyone else, down. You’re an inspiration, in my opinion, in many ways!!
Oh my goodness! People astonish me with the things they come out with from behind a computer screen. Your command of the English language is very good, especially considering it is a second language. I can not speak Swedish so could not comment but I am sure you excel at your native language. You are so consistently candid and pleasant no matter the comments TH-cam brings
Wow, just wow. Decorum has left the building. I think loving oneself is where the building blocks start for loving others. Knowing your own boundaries, when assertiveness is needed and not being afraid to talk about things is a fantastic thing. Celebrate it! I will never understand why we, as a collective whole, can't be joyful for someone else.
Watching through the first part of this video made me think, how cool would it be if Angie did a whole GRWM video speaking only in Swedish (with english captions)? I would be so keen to watch something like this 😁❤️ always love your content
The Barbie movie had me crying several times. I don't want to get caught in this trap of competition and comparison that a lot of social media/society encourages, (and my brain gives me the business sometimes.) There's no way I could handle the pressure that comes with being content creator, so big props for fielding all the perceptions & pit falls. Greetings and well wishes from Oregon.
I love how you said if people were rude then you would still show their username (which I fully support 😂), but then for the comments that truly were unacceptable, you didn’t show the name…I just thought that was incredibly classy and I wanted to tell you how much I appreciate how you handled it!!!
Even with the rude af comments, you were so gracious, and you handled them so well. You should be very proud of that. I know I can be a person who lets their emotions get the better of them at times, and I'm not even close to perfect. I'm not trying to put you on a pedestal, I just think it's wonderful that you could address things in such a calm manner and not get offended. Well done, Angie. And, the makeup turned out STUNNING
Hi Angie and friends!! Im a Vet Tech and animal lover. I see, on a daily basis, how expensive our furbabies can be but DAMN they are so worth it!! I would love to hear more about them!! Thanks Ang!!💚💋
Good morning Angie, some of these "assumptions" are rude, beyond rude! The fact that you answer them anyway calm and cooly, make me so freaking proud of you, and proud to be a subscriber. Some of us do see you for the amazing and beautiful person you are. I hope these negative comments roll off of your back. Sending love and positive vibed your way!
Love that you distinguish, and are so confident in your position on the difference, between modesty, vanity, and self confidence, self love, and being as good as (not better than) everyone else.
Love your attitude to money. My partner and I are both engineers with no children and our only debt is our mortgage. We don’t live a particularly frivolous life, but we get the same questions. We bought a new car last year and the comments!!! It’s like, not that we have to justify ourselves, but our last car was ten years old, and we have no children! People really don’t realise how much not having children saves. We’re also budgeters, in that we know what we’re spending our money on ever month, and we know how much we’re saving. We buy nice things, but only when we know we’re going to buy them, if that makes sense. I think an awareness of how much money you earn vs how much you spend does naturally make you a more financially astute person. Any money spent is spent with intention. My goodness. Makeup, language learning and budgeting all in one fabulous video. Fun! 😁
I just want to say it: I'm proud of every woman who has children and of every woman who doesn’t. For whatever reason. It can be a physical limitation or a choice. It's just as hard to go against society standards as raising children. And every person has a right to keep this PERSONAL. Btw, I also cried during the feminist speech in the Barbie movie. It hit so close to my heart. Dear women, be proud of yourself regardless of any kind of standards ❤
I'm trying to stop smoking right now and it's been incredibly difficult. I stopped through all of my 4 pregnancies but for whatever reason I can't seem to quit right now. It's so expensive and I really don't get anything out of it except smelling like smoke and spending money that could be better used somewhere else. Please don't ever start. Edit to add: I think pretty girls unfortunately get stigmatized with the "stuck up" label and you Angie, are gorgeous 😍
Quitting smoking is very hard, both me and my husband were smokers, the only way we were able to quit this time (we’ve tried several times) was to get the prescription Chantix. If you have insurance it should pay for it or most of the cost. Being on Medicare they hardly paid for it but we decided on the long run it was cheaper than cigarettes. Knock on wood, it’s been 10 months now that we’ve stopped smoking. It wasn’t until my husband said he wanted to quit cause it’s hard if your partner still smokes. Do I still want a cigarette, yes but the feeling lasts a few seconds but if I’m around someone who smokes I can’t stand the smell if that makes sense. I get the urge at times if I’m worried or stressed. Praying for you. ❤
Thank you both for the suggestions above.... and the prayers which are needed and appreciated... My husband uses a vape and I've tried it when I didn't have cigs and I didn't really like it... I think a lot of my problems getting started is that I've made smoking so much of my daily life that I have a difficult time trying to get away from the stupid cigarettes. I wake up and have a cig, I eat and have a cig, I smoke before bed... so I have to figure out a way to try to do these things without the cigarettes. I may eventually try Chantix or something similar to that because I really want to be around to see my children get older and if I keep smoking I'm risking not seeing that.
@@whoathatsanicememe3093 I know exactly what you mean, first thing in the morning, cup of coffee sitting outside with my cigarette , same thing after eating, right before bed, I was up to almost a pack per day and hubby was 1 1/2 packs, really expensive habit now. I’m telling you that Chantix works, after one day I didn’t want cigarettes at all, even if I tried to smoke one I couldn’t even get half way thru one. I tried vaping but didn’t like it, neither did my husband. Good luck, it’s a difficult habit to break without the pills. We both were on a 3 month supply, that’s all, no side effects either.
@whoathatsanicememe3093 No problem , there are ones you can get with different settings on them that release alot or a small amount also you can go lower in the nicotine percentage in them too I get 15 mg for mine sometimes I can do 20 but I find that makes me cough like nobodies business... I hear you with trying to break the habit , I wake up its coffee and a smoke still , most of my day I'm good with just the vape but at the moment I have misplaced it ...I wish you luck in your endeavor💖
Oh wow, I haven’t even started this video but just reading the comments I’m appalled so many people felt so comfortable being rude! I love clothes and stuff but I also don’t really enjoy shopping lol I just want them to appear in my closet
Wouldn’t that be the life!! Oooh all three cosmic brushes palettes??! I’m so excited! Vain??? Vain??? I have never gotten that impression from you at all. When you’re like I look great! I’m like YES! That’s a true statement!
This eye look came out absolutely impeccable. Stunning. I’m the same way with money. Very aware of what I’m spending, I’m frugal, I love a deal but I still have a ton of makeup and art stuff, etc. it’s just something I rly prioritize & I’ve always been like that. It’s a great attribute, especially in this world.
My "assumption" is that you are genuine, nerdy, funny, nice, confident, game lover. I think we would make excellent friends! I love your sense of humor 🎉❤
Wow. That person who said you think you’re better than others…WTF? Healthy self-assurance scares some people. My favorite thing about you is the goofiness, the playfulness, within the reviews/tutorials. The joy of color, unrestrained use of what you want, not what “looks good” but what brings you happiness in the moment. The artistry of it. SO inspiring
Angie: "And you look great too!" Me & my hot mess self with unwashed hair: "Aww, thanks 🥰" LOL 😂 Also, I'd LOVE another makeup video in Swedish one day ❤
You are the one of the best creators on TH-cam. Your kindness, compassion, honesty and humor come through your videos. Some of these questions have sickened me. I’m sorry there are so many ignorant and judgmental people. You be you! ❤❤❤
100% Agree with you. Honestly the 1st times I heard you talk yourself up I felt kind of uncomfortable and I hated that because I realized its because we are “not sopposed” to feel good about ourselves (openly) That absolutely sucks and I have started trying to be more comfortable with talking positively about myself. THANK YOU for encouraging us to do so ❤
Sometimes people are so insensitive and plain out rude! As a woman and a fellow makeup lover I am super happy you can pay your bills with your job as a creator! 🎉🎉🎉 If the World were just a little kinder! I would absolutely love to meet you. I guess this an assumption but I feel we would get along so good. You seem like a fun, feisty friend like my best friends I have!!
If you're somehow offended by confident and assertive women, then maybe it's not about them. Maybe it's about you. Be it internalized misogyny, or just plain jealousy. A person's opinions on others often show more about their own values and worldviews.
I have watched you for years! short colored hair years I love how you have evolved over time. You're very classy and truly genuine. It's unfortunate that women cannot support and uplift each other and rather be judgemental, jealous, offensive, and just out right rude. perhaps they should evaluate there own lives a bit. That looks was STUNNING!!! you have inspired my very colorful collection and I often recreate many of your previous looks. my Hella pallet is one of my favorites! Good luck with your Italian lessons ❤❤
Thank you for your response on the assumption about childless women. It's true, you never know what's going on for that person and being questioned can really hurt sometimes. Everyone assumes with IVF and adoption that it's so easy to get a child, but there's a lot more to it than that. I don't mind if someone asks if I have children, I just want them to read the room. My very short answer of "unfortunately no" does not give permission for more questions.
Oh my I’ve just noticed you reached 130k subs🎉🎉 congrats. I’ve never noticed the contrast between European and US(movies) cool kids because it’s so true that in Europe most people that are cool are ussualy the least academicaly or otherwise gifted/succesful. Lol at least in my expirience.
I hate it when people ask questions about having children, like... What does it matter to you? It's personal and in any case why does everyone need children. Also thank you for swatching the Cosmic Brushes highlight palette I was so curious about it!
Latvia here, in my school was the same as in Sweden. And I am also 39. Most of school knew me, cause boys liked me (but I didn't date anyone back then), but I wasn't in the popular crowd, my classmates were not popular and I am not extrovert... You are not vain. You are original, you like color, you like certain things and it's ok, for everyone, to do that.
In addition to addressing the assumptions about you, (some of which were really rude), you had so many beautiful messages. 💛💛 I’ve been here over 4 years. If I didn’t admire the person you are, I wouldn’t still be here. You’re always a bright light in my day. 😊 Beautiful look…..as always. 🤩
I'm with you on the no kids thing. I didn't have kids and i have NO REGRETS! I'm out here traveling and doing what I want when I want. Honestly, I think so people that did have kids are just jealous 🤷
I just want to say that, from the videos I've seen of you and your life over the last 4 or 5 years, I love your personality and your heart. Even though I see only youtube moments which is a tiny bit of your actual life, it is obvious that you have such a big heart! You are incredibly generous and have a genuine soft spot for family, friends and animals. Anyone who is in your inner circle is very lucky🩷
Regarding regrets over children not had: my aunt and uncle, who got married at 50, spent a long time lamenting to the extended family that they never had kids. So. Eventually, a niece of theirs sent her daughter to stay with them for a week, during the summer. She wasn't a badly behaved kid, just a 6 year old with the normal amount of energy, which is, of course, a lot. They were so miserable that week that it pretty much shut their mouths on regretting they never had kids, because they learned that they weren't the type. Which is fine. They liked the house to be quiet and undisturbed, they didn't want to have to entertain a toddler, their idea of fun was walking to the botanical garden, sitting on a bench for an hour, then walking back
I’m glad you’re talking and bringing and bringing normalcy to women being confident because I feel it’s the insecurities within ppl that drive them to feel and make stupid comments like that
I love SO much that you are a confident person and are not opposed to confrontation when necessary. As women, it’s not always particularly easy to be that way in this world. So, from one woman to another, I’m proud of you for being YOU and for not sacrificing your authenticity because the world and society. suggests you should. 💖💖💖
I always love your transparency even when you can't answer a question. I guess people feel like they can say anything to you because you come across as so open and friendly. I truly have no idea why someone would feel you were on the spectrum, not that that is a stigma. I am a Respiratory Therapist and I am so glad you don't smoke. My boyfriend smokes and as one knows, you cannot force someone to stop any addiction. I always love your videos!
I don’t want children and I always hear that. When you are older you will regret it. You don’t really live if you don’t have them. I just say. No I live my life how I want it and love it. If I have children I would be unhappy. I don’t judge people who have them. So don’t do that with me if I don’t want them. And I love how you say you are as good as anybody else. You have to be your own biggest fan! ❤❤❤
Your job also requires you to purchase and try exponentially more products than the average person which in turn helps us to know what to spend our money on. You take one for the team but it’s also part of your job. This past year I’ve been rly particular when buying eyeshadow palettes asking do I have these colors? (Even by mixing a couple palettes) will this be unique to my collection? Now that I have a decent palette collection idw add redundant ones or ones I won’t genuinely use & get joy from.
Aww well I like myself too & value who I am! And have noticed that since I because old enough to recognize my beauty, my intelligence, my humor, etc that some others think I am too arrogant & many, especially women, tend not to like me. But that’s ok I like me! Thanks for saying that about yourself the way you did.
every time i come back to watch a video of yours im just left with a feeling of "damn, i wanna be like angie when i grow up" hahah the inspiration is hitting me from every angle when listening to these kinds of videos so thank you for being you! sending lots of love
Hi Angie! I feel that having your own Business, you put all profits back into your brand. Trademarks, product delivery (business aspect) everything depends on the first year of starting your own. I love how you are dedicating so much work. Your like that Duracell ads with the Bunny! You keep going and going. In the best way. ❤❤❤❤❤❤😊
I have always loved your confidence and that you talk positively about yourself, I think it's something that more people need! It's surprising to me though that someone interpreted that as you thinking you're better than others because I personally always got the impression from you that you apply that same kindness to the people in your life. More people need to build themselves up the same way they would for a friend. Everyone deserves kindness. 💝
Okey have to comment about the language one: as someone who has had to learn swedish (finnish here) I can totally hear from your english how good your swedish is. Swedish is it's own full language that has lot a of speakers, media and as you said goverment documents produced in it so I see no reason why you wouldn't have a strong base in it that you always firstly rely. I don't mean to say that your english is bad by any means! Some times the word order or idiom you use clearly comes from first thinkin it in swedish and I'm very familiar with that. I love following you because you are swedish and I feel you give good representation, as in we exist, for us nordics who are otherwise so forgotten in the makeup community. And yes, this is indeed a hint that I would loose my mind for one or two more full swedish videos from you
Uchiko yes you had it correct, it’s the smaller version of Uchi aka my favorite sushi in Austin! I know you and Riccardo will have a great time, please enjoy your date and the food of course ❤
Omg i was not expecting my question to be on the thumbnail 🙊 i really do hope i didnt come off as rude as it was never my intention. You handled and answered these questions with grace!
I loved it so much that you said it's ok to acknowledge your worth and being modest isn't necessarily a good thing! That's a motivational speech right there❤
You’re honestly inspiring 🥲 There’s nothing modest about not loving yourself, that really hits the nail on the head. You’re the kind of role model we (and our daughters) need.
In Germany the cool kids at school were also mostly troublemakers, who smoked, partied, got drunk and were friends with and dated older students (who were also known for making trouble). Caring about school and being healthy wasn’t cool…
I'm so happy that you like yourself - me too!! I say all the time that I'm honestly surprised when people don't like me. I mean - they are just missing out :D Liking yourself is so important and acknowledging that you have abilities and intelegence that puts you on par with most folks is great! LOVE IT!
Not sure if you'll see this comment but I also have similar issues with my stomach and when I'm weak or I know that the food is going to be spicy or heavy I take Gaviscon, it's over the counter and based on algie. If you start having painful cramps, take 2-3 tablets (I prefer "extra" that have white and pink stripes) and after about an hour pain is gone. If you take it before and after heavy a fatty/triggering meal it should help to avoid pain all together. There's no actual medication we can take on a regular basis for this but oh my God, Gaviscon saved me so many times! Give it a try, it's just for coating and to prevent from acid burning your own stomach 😣 On another note as someone who was diagnosed with POF, question about kids is a bit frustrating and annoying, like mind your own business Diane! I'm not going to list the reasons I don't/can't have kids yet! It doesn't make me less of a person that I don't have them!
@@AngelicaNyqvist oh, thank you. I'm from Ireland so the choice of available meds is a bit limited here but I think it's called Zantec here, will give a try as well!
@@Takotaly the tablets that disolve in water as a fizzy helps me when I feel they are coming on, both in Sweden and her in the US they are non-prescriptive :)
Good for you for feeling confident with who you are! In our part of the country especially (I'm in Oklahoma which is similar in mindset to TX) a woman who is confident in who she is is seen as a huge negative. We're expected to "know our place". I teared up at the Barbie movie too because the message of empowerment and free agency over oneself is definitely not a message that is taught to American girls. Sadly, the worst perpetuators of patriarchal ideas are women.
You go girl!!! Positive girl/women power!!! I love watching you everyday. You are a ray of sunshine🌞Thanks for the pick me up each day. You make me smile and have taught me some cool color combos! I have too many eyeshadow palettes for a 54 year old, but I love them and love creating, so thanks for the help!!! Have a fantastic day!💜💜💜
I love the persona assumption. I called a client that I have talked to for years and I was their trainer a few years ago. When I she answers the phone and talked to me for a minute she said “oh you’re no who I thought you were”. So I asked her who she thought I was and she said the trainer they had. I said yes that’s me. She said you don’t sound like yourself. So I confessed to using my support voice and we laughed. I know several of my coworkers also have a support voice we use on the phone until we know the client better.
I spend most my money on my pets too. Thank you for talking about that. Also love how calm you are in uneasy situations. Seeing the good is everything is really a saving mindset. I love Italian too, even if I studied Spanish at the University.
I love all the self-affirming messages in this video and I am so glad that you express them. I hope that other women will learn to be more like this. This is how I always pray that my nieces will be as they grow up and go out into the world on their own. We need more women like you Angie! Since I first started watching you I have always felt that you were a very genuine person and I love how you always speak your mind and are not afraid to have opinions. I hope that I can be more like that too. Since we both seem to love makeup so much I always thought we could be friends in different circumstances 😅
I’m relatively new to your channel and I’ve learnt so much about you in a short space of time and I cannot believe how rude and disrespectful some people can be. I’m the same as you where is someone is not a nice person to me or talking behind my back then I will cut that person off, life is way too short for shitty people in it. Keep being you, lots of love ❤️ xxxxx
As someone who physically cannot have children, I always find that openly questioning why women don't have children is one of the rudest and cruelest behaviors to have towards women. Our value in society is not chalked up to the children we do/don't have. Smh.
❤❤❤
I am so sorry that this happened to you 🩷♥️💜
@catherinelynnfraser2001 thank you! I have thick skin, and thankfully, I don't want children, so infertility isn't as devastating as it is for others. There are so many women who desperately want children who can't, and others' judgments create additional trauma and grief. It's sad. My heart goes out to them.
EXACTLY. People don’t know if the person has tried for a long time and couldn’t get pregnant or suffered miscarriages or had a child and lost the child, or doesn’t want children which is completely fine! People are so rude! Just because someone is married doesn’t mean they should have kids. It annoys me when people get married and instantly people ask - when are you having kids? Like chill! Jeesh! And unless you’re going to be financially supporting and emotionally supporting said children with that person, it’s NONE of your business! People are ridiculous 😂
I agree completely. I have had 2 losses now and desperately want a baby, it hurts like hell when people ask me why I'm not pregnant yet or "when are the babies coming?!" People need to mind their business.
OMG.....as a 56 yr old woman without children.... no regrets. I will join in the chorus of other ladies on this thread to say that I am tired of smiling politely through that rude, invasive and judgmental inquiry. It’s personal, it’s non ya business....I’m so happy that you love being a Mom and are fulfilled in that experience. Leave the rest of us alone. It’s always other women....shame on you. Angie, cheers to you for the graceful and loving way you spoke to those assumptions that should not have been said out loud. ❤
“There is nothing modest about not loving yourself.” Wow. That is great! Thank you for all that you do.
Angie would make a great therapist honestly. ^^
It's so true!! ❤
Exactly. I agree. It's not conceited to like yourself. Knowing your flaws and your worth with what you find acceptable about yourself is all healthy perspective. It's when you think there is no flaws and your not a regular human being like the rest of us is when it can be considered unhealthy.
As a childfree woman, I am so tired. What a stranger chooses to do with their uterus should always be off limits. The word regret gets thrown around left, right and centre. To the person who asked that question: turn it around and ask yourself how you would feel if someone questioned your choice to have children and said you would one day come to regret it. I, for one, would rather regret not having a child than raise a child I regret (and I’m so sure of it that I had my fallopian tubes removed 😉).
Plus, someone could be struggling with infertility and you don't know it. I'm child free and I've gotten the same questions. I usually respond with one of these faces - 🤢😧😵💫😳🙅♀️. I like kids, I just don't want any. I have 2 nieces and 1 great niece who is 7 so she is entering that great phase of discovery. She's so stinking cute and funny. But when I'm tired, I can send her home with her mom.
Also the argument that it is selfish not to have kids…. Having a child is probably the most selfish thing you can do.
I don’t have kids and I think there are as many with kids, who regret having them, as someone without kids, who regrets not having them.
I'm 40 and child free. At no point have I ever regretted that decision.
Solution: get ahold of a child and keep it locked in the basement, in case you change your mind. If you don't, it's in the basement, no one will know. If you do, you can take it out and raise it anytime.
Exactly
“If you’re rude, I’m gonna show everyone that you’re rude.” YES Angie! 👏 There’s far too much “bravery” and vileness hidden behind anonymity on the internet. I’m so sick of the entitlement! Good for you for not holding back.
p.s. I’m 41 with no kids and I owe NOBODY a justification.
There ist actually much more rudeness out in the real world. Where is the fight against that? Yep, no one cares. Start to fight against femicides, or the ban of abortions in the states, THAT would actually help.
I cannot believe how rude people are. Why does everyone think everyone should want children? I have never wanted children and I am great with it. Also, I agree that making diagnoses on people from the short time of what you present to us is ridiculous!!! You also appear to be one of the healthier people I have seen. I know you like candy, and we all have our vices, but everything you have ever shown for food is super healthy. OMG! You do not come off better than everyone else and your finances are none of our business. Just bc we 'choose' to purchase and/or support you doesn't make us entitled to know how much money you make out of your business ventures. You are kind for answering these questions and I understand creating content, but you are NOT required to get this personal. Soliciting some of these comments could be very negative to your personal mental health, as people love to hide behind their keyboard and tear others down due to their own insecurities. Keep up the great makeup content. I love watching your videos. You are beautiful, funny, talented, and seem to be an amazing person/friend.
EXACTLY, on all counts. I feel like I’m prob on the spectrum, and if I got the diagnosis that I was it would be a huge relief for me because all the issues I had growing up would make more sense to me…but nothing about any of her videos would EVER suggest that she’s on the spectrum, sadly I think some people want to have things in common w the creators that they love, and while there’s nothing wrong w being autistic or on the spectrum it’s very wrong to make that assumption about someone else, whether they’ve known that person all their life or just through videos online. Going into the research as much as I have, it sounds like people who might be autistic don’t know when they are sounding rude or hurtful. I’d like to give her the benefit of the doubt…but still these assumptions…aren’t what I thought they’d be at all. These feel more like attacks than assumptions…tbh…
We love you Angie! ❤❤❤ I know you’re strong, but I wish I could take whatever negative feelings you have from these assumptions off your shoulders. Sending positive vibes to you. You brighten everyone’s day w your videos and some people are so miserable that they only know how to project their problems on to someone else. They weren’t given the right mental tools to cope in life.
Omg I ❤your comment 💯
Me too. I used to want kids when I was younger but that was mostly because it was something I just assumed we're supposed to do but when I actually gave it some thought I realised that I can't think of a single reason why I would want to have kids. A lot of people don't even think about it, they see it as a box you tick off as go through your life.
I am right with you!
Absolutely agree with your comments about being confident and assertive. It’s not about being cocky, it’s about acknowledging that it’s okay to love yourself. It needed to be said so thank you so much!
Well said!
Amen 🙌
Let’s normalize women having confidence. Let’s normalize not everybody having kids. A psychiatrist once told me if a child hears you say ‘I look awful’ then any children around you will think they do too. It’s harmful to your self esteem to put yourself down.
Maybe I am super naive, but I always just assumed that you are who you show me you are.🤷 So far you've shown me a hard-working, confident woman who knows who she is and does her best to live authentically. You've given me no reason to question that.
I feel like anyone who’s been on your channel for more than a minute knows you’re not afraid of aging. I’ve seen you grow out your gray hair with no problem, and it’s very clear that you’re ok with the changes to your facial features that come with age. ❤
The idea that makeup = vanity is so outdated. I wear makeup almost daily but it's because I**** enjoy the artistic process and the transformation that makeup can provide. Do I need it? No. But do I enjoy it and does it bring me joy? Yes!
The “you think you’re better comment” is so crazy because you’re one of the most humble content creators
I just wanted you to know that I purchased your brush set about 2 or 3 months ago. I am thoroughly enjoying them. They are a really good size for my eye shape and I am very pleased with my purchase. You did a great job for your first launch. Keep the hits coming, and I hope your business grows and becomes very successful. 🤑😁💵
Glad you like them! :D
I love, love, love your comments about loving yourself. I was valedictorian in high school, and I always felt the need to make myself smaller, to not use big words, and to play the "dumb" girl just to fit in. It was miserable. I was worthy, but I had been pretending for so long that I forgot that. Don't change yourself to "fit in." We are smart, we are beautiful, and we are worthy of talking ourselves up. ❤ In the words of RuPaul, "If you can't love yourself, how the hell you gonna love somebody else?"
So while I obviously do not know you personally, I laughed at all of the most absurd assumptions about you as you never hit me as that type of person (i.e. thinking you're better than others). You always came off as genuine and doing what you love and enjoy and living life unapologetically, which clearly seems some keyboard warriors are having a problem. Great video as always Angie!❤
I also think that it also has something to do with the fact that Angie is a, let's be honest, objectively beautiful woman. Some people who are good looking are very aware of it and will have a "holier than thou" kind of attitude about it. But plenty of beautiful people are not that way of course, or even have low self esteem and can't see what others see at all. I just think people's own insecurities are the reason for thinking this way.
No one has ever asked me why I have children, unthinkable that anyone would question a child free woman 🤦🏾 Everything you said about confidence & loving yourself - 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 preach girl. And I need to know if ANYONE is better in another language than their native/mother tongue?? 🤔 Is that even possible?! Tfs lovely, great video & authentic Angie as always! 😘
You're so right about women not being allowed to like themselves. I gained weight recently and I'm personally not that phased, but since then everyone acts like I'm supposed to wear black potato sacks and act like a little mouse because I'm fat now. And God forbid I shrug it off when someone asks if I'm gonna diet in order to go back to my slimmer body.
How rude of them?! Why do people feel entitled to ask questions like that? I would just respond with a seemingly unrelated answer about your well-being, like, “I’m really loving my new job!” or “I’m so happy with my new hobby!” and just let them fucking wonder why you didn’t answer their question.
You are so right, women are expected to always be humble and not celebrate themselves or be proud of their achievements. I was listening to a podcast interview of Amy Poehler where she talked about how people will ask her Are you surprised you got here, this happened to you, etc and they pretty much expect her to say yes, but what she really feels is NO I am not surprised, I worked really hard to get here, to have this, etc.
I truly believe in her body, her choice. Whether it is on the matter of abortion, children or surgery. The reasons behind choices can be varied but don’t need to be explained. I love your senses of fairness and assertiveness. I wish you all the success in the world with Singe Beauty. I’m very excited for the upcoming releases.
I’m surprised by some of the intrusive questions but not at all surprised by your good natured answers. Your positivity is inspiring.
The most rebellious act you could ever do is love yourself in our society! I love your content! I love myself!!!
14:23 I haven’t heard your answer to this question yet, but what I can say is you definitely do not give off vibes of being full of yourself. You give off the vibe of a kind and gentle person who also happens to be beautiful.
Not me crying because of Angie's "you're a good person" speech 😭😭
The kid assumptions annoy the ever lovin crap out of me. Why do women do this to each other.😅
😂❤
Internalised misogyny is a helluva drug, unfortunately. Also, that particular assumption just reeked of projection, especially how they didn't even phrase it specific to Angie, which was the whole point of the video, but said "most women".
Wow. People are bold. And some are just plain rude! That aside, Angie, you are such a delight! I adore your confidence, your assertiveness and your positivity! Idk why anyone would want to try to bring you, or anyone else, down. You’re an inspiration, in my opinion, in many ways!!
Oh my goodness! People astonish me with the things they come out with from behind a computer screen. Your command of the English language is very good, especially considering it is a second language. I can not speak Swedish so could not comment but I am sure you excel at your native language. You are so consistently candid and pleasant no matter the comments TH-cam brings
Nothing against Angie, but there are people who speak English as their first language that don't speak it very well.
I’m always gobsmacked with how rude people are IRL. I don’t think I could cope with life online.
Wow, just wow. Decorum has left the building. I think loving oneself is where the building blocks start for loving others. Knowing your own boundaries, when assertiveness is needed and not being afraid to talk about things is a fantastic thing. Celebrate it! I will never understand why we, as a collective whole, can't be joyful for someone else.
This is a beautiful look! I just can’t understand how people can be so rude in their assumptions. I love your channel!!
Watching through the first part of this video made me think, how cool would it be if Angie did a whole GRWM video speaking only in Swedish (with english captions)? I would be so keen to watch something like this 😁❤️ always love your content
She did a while ago ! But I would like a second instalment :)
Just found the video! Thanks :)))
The Barbie movie had me crying several times. I don't want to get caught in this trap of competition and comparison that a lot of social media/society encourages, (and my brain gives me the business sometimes.)
There's no way I could handle the pressure that comes with being content creator, so big props for fielding all the perceptions & pit falls.
Greetings and well wishes from Oregon.
I love how you said if people were rude then you would still show their username (which I fully support 😂), but then for the comments that truly were unacceptable, you didn’t show the name…I just thought that was incredibly classy and I wanted to tell you how much I appreciate how you handled it!!!
Even with the rude af comments, you were so gracious, and you handled them so well. You should be very proud of that. I know I can be a person who lets their emotions get the better of them at times, and I'm not even close to perfect. I'm not trying to put you on a pedestal, I just think it's wonderful that you could address things in such a calm manner and not get offended. Well done, Angie. And, the makeup turned out STUNNING
Hi Angie and friends!! Im a Vet Tech and animal lover. I see, on a daily basis, how expensive our furbabies can be but DAMN they are so worth it!! I would love to hear more about them!! Thanks Ang!!💚💋
Good morning Angie, some of these "assumptions" are rude, beyond rude! The fact that you answer them anyway calm and cooly, make me so freaking proud of you, and proud to be a subscriber. Some of us do see you for the amazing and beautiful person you are. I hope these negative comments roll off of your back. Sending love and positive vibed your way!
assumptions are always rude! we should keep that in mind ;-)
@@recordtapesbackward I can see your point
Love that you distinguish, and are so confident in your position on the difference, between modesty, vanity, and self confidence, self love, and being as good as (not better than) everyone else.
Love your attitude to money. My partner and I are both engineers with no children and our only debt is our mortgage. We don’t live a particularly frivolous life, but we get the same questions. We bought a new car last year and the comments!!! It’s like, not that we have to justify ourselves, but our last car was ten years old, and we have no children! People really don’t realise how much not having children saves.
We’re also budgeters, in that we know what we’re spending our money on ever month, and we know how much we’re saving. We buy nice things, but only when we know we’re going to buy them, if that makes sense. I think an awareness of how much money you earn vs how much you spend does naturally make you a more financially astute person. Any money spent is spent with intention.
My goodness. Makeup, language learning and budgeting all in one fabulous video. Fun! 😁
I just want to say it: I'm proud of every woman who has children and of every woman who doesn’t. For whatever reason. It can be a physical limitation or a choice. It's just as hard to go against society standards as raising children. And every person has a right to keep this PERSONAL.
Btw, I also cried during the feminist speech in the Barbie movie. It hit so close to my heart. Dear women, be proud of yourself regardless of any kind of standards ❤
I'm trying to stop smoking right now and it's been incredibly difficult. I stopped through all of my 4 pregnancies but for whatever reason I can't seem to quit right now. It's so expensive and I really don't get anything out of it except smelling like smoke and spending money that could be better used somewhere else. Please don't ever start.
Edit to add: I think pretty girls unfortunately get stigmatized with the "stuck up" label and you Angie, are gorgeous 😍
Not sure how you feel about vaping , but you could give that a try, it helped me cut down on smoking and it's alot cheaper.
Quitting smoking is very hard, both me and my husband were smokers, the only way we were able to quit this time (we’ve tried several times) was to get the prescription Chantix. If you have insurance it should pay for it or most of the cost. Being on Medicare they hardly paid for it but we decided on the long run it was cheaper than cigarettes. Knock on wood, it’s been 10 months now that we’ve stopped smoking. It wasn’t until my husband said he wanted to quit cause it’s hard if your partner still smokes. Do I still want a cigarette, yes but the feeling lasts a few seconds but if I’m around someone who smokes I can’t stand the smell if that makes sense. I get the urge at times if I’m worried or stressed. Praying for you. ❤
Thank you both for the suggestions above.... and the prayers which are needed and appreciated...
My husband uses a vape and I've tried it when I didn't have cigs and I didn't really like it...
I think a lot of my problems getting started is that I've made smoking so much of my daily life that I have a difficult time trying to get away from the stupid cigarettes. I wake up and have a cig, I eat and have a cig, I smoke before bed... so I have to figure out a way to try to do these things without the cigarettes.
I may eventually try Chantix or something similar to that because I really want to be around to see my children get older and if I keep smoking I'm risking not seeing that.
@@whoathatsanicememe3093 I know exactly what you mean, first thing in the morning, cup of coffee sitting outside with my cigarette , same thing after eating, right before bed, I was up to almost a pack per day and hubby was 1 1/2 packs, really expensive habit now. I’m telling you that Chantix works, after one day I didn’t want cigarettes at all, even if I tried to smoke one I couldn’t even get half way thru one. I tried vaping but didn’t like it, neither did my husband. Good luck, it’s a difficult habit to break without the pills. We both were on a 3 month supply, that’s all, no side effects either.
@whoathatsanicememe3093 No problem , there are ones you can get with different settings on them that release alot or a small amount also you can go lower in the nicotine percentage in them too I get 15 mg for mine sometimes I can do 20 but I find that makes me cough like nobodies business... I hear you with trying to break the habit , I wake up its coffee and a smoke still , most of my day I'm good with just the vape but at the moment I have misplaced it ...I wish you luck in your endeavor💖
Hello from Germany. Absolutely agree with the thing you told about school, the cool kids etc. It was the same here in Germany.
Oh wow, I haven’t even started this video but just reading the comments I’m appalled so many people felt so comfortable being rude!
I love clothes and stuff but I also don’t really enjoy shopping lol I just want them to appear in my closet
Yes I want them to just magically show up 😂
Wouldn’t that be the life!! Oooh all three cosmic brushes palettes??! I’m so excited!
Vain??? Vain??? I have never gotten that impression from you at all. When you’re like I look great! I’m like YES! That’s a true statement!
Haha! You included mine! Ooh noo you have an ulcer?!! Yeah ok no don’t eat the spicy foods
This eye look came out absolutely impeccable. Stunning. I’m the same way with money. Very aware of what I’m spending, I’m frugal, I love a deal but I still have a ton of makeup and art stuff, etc. it’s just something I rly prioritize & I’ve always been like that. It’s a great attribute, especially in this world.
My "assumption" is that you are genuine, nerdy, funny, nice, confident, game lover. I think we would make excellent friends! I love your sense of humor 🎉❤
Wow. That person who said you think you’re better than others…WTF? Healthy self-assurance scares some people.
My favorite thing about you is the goofiness, the playfulness, within the reviews/tutorials. The joy of color, unrestrained use of what you want, not what “looks good” but what brings you happiness in the moment. The artistry of it.
SO inspiring
Aww the last compliment from your mom was the best ending to the video! 💜
Angie: "And you look great too!"
Me & my hot mess self with unwashed hair: "Aww, thanks 🥰"
LOL 😂 Also, I'd LOVE another makeup video in Swedish one day ❤
YES!!! 100% agree.
You are the one of the best creators on TH-cam. Your kindness, compassion, honesty and humor come through your videos. Some of these questions have sickened me. I’m sorry there are so many ignorant and judgmental people. You be you! ❤❤❤
100% Agree with you. Honestly the 1st times I heard you talk yourself up I felt kind of uncomfortable and I hated that because I realized its because we are “not sopposed” to feel good about ourselves (openly) That absolutely sucks and I have started trying to be more comfortable with talking positively about myself. THANK YOU for encouraging us to do so ❤
Sometimes people are so insensitive and plain out rude! As a woman and a fellow makeup lover I am super happy you can pay your bills with your job as a creator! 🎉🎉🎉 If the World were just a little kinder! I would absolutely love to meet you. I guess this an assumption but I feel we would get along so good. You seem like a fun, feisty friend like my best friends I have!!
If you're somehow offended by confident and assertive women, then maybe it's not about them. Maybe it's about you. Be it internalized misogyny, or just plain jealousy. A person's opinions on others often show more about their own values and worldviews.
‘She isn’t intimidating; you’re intimidated’ 😉
I have watched you for years! short colored hair years I love how you have evolved over time. You're very classy and truly genuine. It's unfortunate that women cannot support and uplift each other and rather be judgemental, jealous, offensive, and just out right rude. perhaps they should evaluate there own lives a bit. That looks was STUNNING!!! you have inspired my very colorful collection and I often recreate many of your previous looks. my Hella pallet is one of my favorites! Good luck with your Italian lessons ❤❤
These assumptions are hurting my soul…I LOVE that you are confident and it makes me feel better about owning my beauty and how far I’ve come.
Thank you for your response on the assumption about childless women. It's true, you never know what's going on for that person and being questioned can really hurt sometimes. Everyone assumes with IVF and adoption that it's so easy to get a child, but there's a lot more to it than that. I don't mind if someone asks if I have children, I just want them to read the room. My very short answer of "unfortunately no" does not give permission for more questions.
Some of these assumptions were interesting bc it really shows how differently people perceive things.
agree! :D
Not gonna lie, I saw you mixing up all those colours and thought this could never look good. But you slayed I just as you always do. 😮🙌🏼
I cried during that part too! It really hit so close to home! The expectations for women are so insane and impossible to live up to.
Truth is, we cannot care about others without caring about ourselves first!!!
If we hyped ourselves up more, there’d be less self-esteem issues…thanks for being you beautiful ❤❤❤
I just love how you address assumptions, ESPECIALLY the inappropriate ones 😉 You just seem very "real" and it is appreciated!
Oh my I’ve just noticed you reached 130k subs🎉🎉 congrats.
I’ve never noticed the contrast between European and US(movies) cool kids because it’s so true that in Europe most people that are cool are ussualy the least academicaly or otherwise gifted/succesful. Lol at least in my expirience.
Thanks! 😃
I hate it when people ask questions about having children, like... What does it matter to you? It's personal and in any case why does everyone need children.
Also thank you for swatching the Cosmic Brushes highlight palette I was so curious about it!
Latvia here, in my school was the same as in Sweden. And I am also 39. Most of school knew me, cause boys liked me (but I didn't date anyone back then), but I wasn't in the popular crowd, my classmates were not popular and I am not extrovert...
You are not vain. You are original, you like color, you like certain things and it's ok, for everyone, to do that.
In addition to addressing the assumptions about you, (some of which were really rude), you had so many beautiful messages. 💛💛
I’ve been here over 4 years. If I didn’t admire the person you are, I wouldn’t still be here.
You’re always a bright light in my day. 😊
Beautiful look…..as always. 🤩
Awh thank you so much Leah
I'm with you on the no kids thing. I didn't have kids and i have NO REGRETS! I'm out here traveling and doing what I want when I want. Honestly, I think so people that did have kids are just jealous 🤷
i’m here with my hazelnut flavored coffee, ready to hear the tea ☕️ ❤😂
Love hazelnut coffe!! 🥰
I just want to say that, from the videos I've seen of you and your life over the last 4 or 5 years, I love your personality and your heart. Even though I see only youtube moments which is a tiny bit of your actual life, it is obvious that you have such a big heart! You are incredibly generous and have a genuine soft spot for family, friends and animals. Anyone who is in your inner circle is very lucky🩷
Regarding regrets over children not had: my aunt and uncle, who got married at 50, spent a long time lamenting to the extended family that they never had kids. So. Eventually, a niece of theirs sent her daughter to stay with them for a week, during the summer. She wasn't a badly behaved kid, just a 6 year old with the normal amount of energy, which is, of course, a lot. They were so miserable that week that it pretty much shut their mouths on regretting they never had kids, because they learned that they weren't the type. Which is fine. They liked the house to be quiet and undisturbed, they didn't want to have to entertain a toddler, their idea of fun was walking to the botanical garden, sitting on a bench for an hour, then walking back
What a lovely compliment from your Mummy! The eyeshadows look lovely as well
Right! I was so proud when she told me that :D
I’m glad you’re talking and bringing and bringing normalcy to women being confident because I feel it’s the insecurities within ppl that drive them to feel and make stupid comments like that
Would love to hear a doggy update! ❤
I love SO much that you are a confident person and are not opposed to confrontation when necessary. As women, it’s not always particularly easy to be that way in this world. So, from one woman to another, I’m proud of you for being YOU and for not sacrificing your authenticity because the world and society. suggests you should. 💖💖💖
I always love your transparency even when you can't answer a question. I guess people feel like they can say anything to you because you come across as so open and friendly. I truly have no idea why someone would feel you were on the spectrum, not that that is a stigma. I am a Respiratory Therapist and I am so glad you don't smoke. My boyfriend smokes and as one knows, you cannot force someone to stop any addiction. I always love your videos!
I don’t want children and I always hear that. When you are older you will regret it. You don’t really live if you don’t have them. I just say. No I live my life how I want it and love it. If I have children I would be unhappy. I don’t judge people who have them. So don’t do that with me if I don’t want them.
And I love how you say you are as good as anybody else. You have to be your own biggest fan! ❤❤❤
Awe Angie. My grandpa died of lung cancer, too. It devastated me. 😞 I’m so sorry.
Yes, you ARE beautiful IN and OUT! Don't let nobody tell you otherwise.
I Love how confident/assertive you are! Women definitely get told to be meek and I’m not here for that. I cried a lot during the Barbie movie too
Your job also requires you to purchase and try exponentially more products than the average person which in turn helps us to know what to spend our money on. You take one for the team but it’s also part of your job. This past year I’ve been rly particular when buying eyeshadow palettes asking do I have these colors? (Even by mixing a couple palettes) will this be unique to my collection? Now that I have a decent palette collection idw add redundant ones or ones I won’t genuinely use & get joy from.
Aww well I like myself too & value who I am! And have noticed that since I because old enough to recognize my beauty, my intelligence, my humor, etc that some others think I am too arrogant & many, especially women, tend not to like me. But that’s ok I like me! Thanks for saying that about yourself the way you did.
every time i come back to watch a video of yours im just left with a feeling of "damn, i wanna be like angie when i grow up" hahah
the inspiration is hitting me from every angle when listening to these kinds of videos so thank you for being you! sending lots of love
Hi Angie! I feel that having your own Business, you put all profits back into your brand. Trademarks, product delivery (business aspect) everything depends on the first year of starting your own. I love how you are dedicating so much work. Your like that Duracell ads with the Bunny! You keep going and going. In the best way. ❤❤❤❤❤❤😊
Yup same in holland, the skipping classes, smoking, bad grades kids were the most popular
reading some of these assumptions truly pissed me off. i love you angie. i love the person that you are, and i love the way you carry yourself. 🥰🥰🥰
I have always loved your confidence and that you talk positively about yourself, I think it's something that more people need! It's surprising to me though that someone interpreted that as you thinking you're better than others because I personally always got the impression from you that you apply that same kindness to the people in your life.
More people need to build themselves up the same way they would for a friend. Everyone deserves kindness. 💝
Okey have to comment about the language one: as someone who has had to learn swedish (finnish here) I can totally hear from your english how good your swedish is. Swedish is it's own full language that has lot a of speakers, media and as you said goverment documents produced in it so I see no reason why you wouldn't have a strong base in it that you always firstly rely. I don't mean to say that your english is bad by any means! Some times the word order or idiom you use clearly comes from first thinkin it in swedish and I'm very familiar with that.
I love following you because you are swedish and I feel you give good representation, as in we exist, for us nordics who are otherwise so forgotten in the makeup community. And yes, this is indeed a hint that I would loose my mind for one or two more full swedish videos from you
Uchiko yes you had it correct, it’s the smaller version of Uchi aka my favorite sushi in Austin! I know you and Riccardo will have a great time, please enjoy your date and the food of course ❤
Omg i was not expecting my question to be on the thumbnail 🙊 i really do hope i didnt come off as rude as it was never my intention. You handled and answered these questions with grace!
No I am actually excited to answer these :)
I loved it so much that you said it's ok to acknowledge your worth and being modest isn't necessarily a good thing! That's a motivational speech right there❤
You’re honestly inspiring 🥲 There’s nothing modest about not loving yourself, that really hits the nail on the head. You’re the kind of role model we (and our daughters) need.
In Germany the cool kids at school were also mostly troublemakers, who smoked, partied, got drunk and were friends with and dated older students (who were also known for making trouble). Caring about school and being healthy wasn’t cool…
Yup, same. (France)
I'm so happy that you like yourself - me too!! I say all the time that I'm honestly surprised when people don't like me. I mean - they are just missing out :D Liking yourself is so important and acknowledging that you have abilities and intelegence that puts you on par with most folks is great! LOVE IT!
Not sure if you'll see this comment but I also have similar issues with my stomach and when I'm weak or I know that the food is going to be spicy or heavy I take Gaviscon, it's over the counter and based on algie. If you start having painful cramps, take 2-3 tablets (I prefer "extra" that have white and pink stripes) and after about an hour pain is gone. If you take it before and after heavy a fatty/triggering meal it should help to avoid pain all together. There's no actual medication we can take on a regular basis for this but oh my God, Gaviscon saved me so many times! Give it a try, it's just for coating and to prevent from acid burning your own stomach 😣
On another note as someone who was diagnosed with POF, question about kids is a bit frustrating and annoying, like mind your own business Diane! I'm not going to list the reasons I don't/can't have kids yet! It doesn't make me less of a person that I don't have them!
Thats a good tip. For me sometimes Zantax works if I feel the pain coming on :)
@@AngelicaNyqvist oh, thank you. I'm from Ireland so the choice of available meds is a bit limited here but I think it's called Zantec here, will give a try as well!
@@Takotaly the tablets that disolve in water as a fizzy helps me when I feel they are coming on, both in Sweden and her in the US they are non-prescriptive :)
Good for you for feeling confident with who you are! In our part of the country especially (I'm in Oklahoma which is similar in mindset to TX) a woman who is confident in who she is is seen as a huge negative. We're expected to "know our place". I teared up at the Barbie movie too because the message of empowerment and free agency over oneself is definitely not a message that is taught to American girls. Sadly, the worst perpetuators of patriarchal ideas are women.
You are such an inspiration!! I can understand why your mother is proud!!
You go girl!!! Positive girl/women power!!! I love watching you everyday. You are a ray of sunshine🌞Thanks for the pick me up each day. You make me smile and have taught me some cool color combos! I have too many eyeshadow palettes for a 54 year old, but I love them and love creating, so thanks for the help!!! Have a fantastic day!💜💜💜
I love the persona assumption. I called a client that I have talked to for years and I was their trainer a few years ago. When I she answers the phone and talked to me for a minute she said “oh you’re no who I thought you were”. So I asked her who she thought I was and she said the trainer they had. I said yes that’s me. She said you don’t sound like yourself. So I confessed to using my support voice and we laughed. I know several of my coworkers also have a support voice we use on the phone until we know the client better.
I spend most my money on my pets too. Thank you for talking about that. Also love how calm you are in uneasy situations. Seeing the good is everything is really a saving mindset. I love Italian too, even if I studied Spanish at the University.
BUZZ LIGHTYEAR EYES INSPO!!!😍
I love all the self-affirming messages in this video and I am so glad that you express them. I hope that other women will learn to be more like this. This is how I always pray that my nieces will be as they grow up and go out into the world on their own. We need more women like you Angie! Since I first started watching you I have always felt that you were a very genuine person and I love how you always speak your mind and are not afraid to have opinions. I hope that I can be more like that too. Since we both seem to love makeup so much I always thought we could be friends in different circumstances 😅
I did cry too with America Ferrera’s speech on Barbie 😢 it’s like everything she said stacked up like brick on top of brick until I teared up
You’re seriously So Pretty 😍🥰
I’ve been following you for years and you’ve always been so honest and so stunning. One of my favorite content creators.
I’m relatively new to your channel and I’ve learnt so much about you in a short space of time and I cannot believe how rude and disrespectful some people can be. I’m the same as you where is someone is not a nice person to me or talking behind my back then I will cut that person off, life is way too short for shitty people in it. Keep being you, lots of love ❤️ xxxxx
I just took a screenshot of that makeup look for inspiration, never would have tried this colour combo, but it looks amazing!
