Hey guys! Today I am back with another Random Round-up of boxes! We are going to open 6 boxes today! One of them made a little mistake though, can you guess which one? Let me know which box is your favorite? Love ya💖
The story about your perpetual bun made me think of Amy Winehouse. I mean, the poor woman appeared to style her hair by teasing with an egg beater. I'm certain you looked perfectly fine. In comparison. 😉
Please do not spray tan before your wedding! If you do, do it many weeks before. It will rub off on your dress if you're wearing white or cream! I've had not one, but two friends ruin their dresses to spray tans. Both did it days before too! Just lookin out for ya ♡
Spray tans only last 7-10 days. If you do it weeks before, it will have all come off by the time the wedding comes around. I would recommend getting a test spray tan a couple months before, then getting your wedding tan 2 days before your event, tan does tend to rub off on white, but there isn’t a whole lot you can do about it unfortunately. Bridal tans tend to be a bit more natural anyway so the colour wouldn’t be as dark rubbing of on your clothes. ❤
Spray tans don’t rub off. It’s a chemical that cause a reaction with your dead skin cells to darken them. The solution usually has a colorant in it to help the artist see where it’s being applied. THIS can rub off on cloths but you are supposed to leave it on only for a few hours and then shower. So as long as you get a spray tan a couple days before and shower before the wedding you are fine.
not if done professionally, and I would def say to get it a few days before and just make sure to maintain it with moisturizer, shower as little as possible and make sure to stay in it when you get it overnight (then rinse in the AM). Coming from someone who does them and has had them done for years but yes, def don't tan yourself!
A couple of weeks after I saw your video about your alopecia I found a silver dollar sized bald spot on the back of my head. I was diagnosed with alopecia too. My dermatologist said I might find other bald spots in the future and today I found another one. I think about you, your struggles with it and your courage in letting the world know now more than when I watched your video the first time. Hair loss sucks, but you've made mine a little easier, so thank you.❤
Future Livestream Idea: you open up all the boxes in your home on camera and you don't stop until they're all open lol. But for real, love the Random Roundup!
WOW! That would be an amazing fundraiser too. Like an old school telethon but actually fun. Then she could break it into hour segments for people rewatching - or those who fall asleep 😔
Right?! Its a conspiracy!! Giant hint marketing and packaging peeps: if we are interested in anti-wrinkle cream it is fairly likely that we can not read less than 10point type even with readers.
I don't know if she will do advent calendars this year. Her wedding is in November and then her honeymoon and I doubt she's going to want to come back and do calendars. I hope she does but don't blame her if she doesn't.
FYI: in Asian skincare, “lotion” is used to describe a more hydrating, milky version of an essence (or toner). So it’s used a bit differently than we would use it to describe body lotion.
So very excited for another random round-up! Also getting hyped up for advent calendar season. Apparently, Sephora brand has 2 different ones, one for the lead up to Christmas, and the other for the time between Christmas and New Years.
I think people that want you to talk fast and get to the product don’t value you!! You’re amazing and I love when you talk and ramble I don’t know I feel connected to you as the person you are and we are having a fun tangent convo! I love going on tangents lol anyways don’t ever change you’re amazing! And we love you! 🤗🫶🏻
If you're looking for a "your lips but better" lip color that stays all day I definitely reccomend Colourpop's Ultra Blotted Lip liquid lipstick. Zuma is my favorite color for a natural look but the formula literally will not budge once it's dry. It's not really a hydrating lipstick but I would definitely reccomend trying it since it's only $8!
There's also charities for children who can't get Christmas presents from their families. You can pick kids by age, I'm sure some teenagers would be happy to receive make up!
that tulip palette from Eyescream is absolutely adorable normally I don't get too into the super stylized packaging for different makeup products (I'm just not that into makeup) but that palette is heckin adorable
I really enjoyed this random mix. Don't forget to contact glossy box about that not being full-sized. That iridescent lipshine that was a purple-pink...that was the colour of my dreams when I was 19 up, I searched everywhere for something like it. Now I'm very far removed from 19, I don't think i could wear it anymore lol. In fact I struggle to find a lipstick colour I actually think suits me now. Getting older sucks. The little individual eyeshadow where the cases matched the shade were very cute, as was the palette where they were shaped like bunch of flowers, I loved how vibrant those colours were, I'd love to know how pigmented they were. I can't help but think with the first box, if you got option 1 that was worth about $25 less than the other two, I'd be a bit grumpy. There's no reason why you can't ensure they're all within a $10 range of each other. That said, I'd probably be salty receiving the James Charles palette. I've no clue if the Becca palette is any good but I'd rather have 10 of those glue lines than anything with James Charles' name on it. I appreciate you pushing through. I do love your longer vids. Maybe you could have a nice big drink handy to be sipping on the whole time (I'd suggest an iced coffee, but I suspect the last thing you need is extra caffeine lol) to keep your throat soothed while going through the boxes. I hope you'll make this a regular feature, or even bring back the wheel spinning. Have you considered doing a live stream just opening a bunch, it'd likely be more relaxed than recording a vid? I'd love to see you be able to get through your stash so you could clear the decks ready for a fresh start next year 🙂. Also, really looking forward to advent calendar season, maybe keep trackmof what your order this time though so you don't order 3 the same 😉🤣💜
I have to say I laughed when you were talking to Glossybox about the Lookfantastic box's pull tab when they're both owned and run by the same company. 😅 But I have to admit it is weird that they have different outer boxes. 🤔
I know you hold onto the boxes for videos and such but I don’t know how you do it. Every time I get a package I try and open it as soon as possible because I’m just so excited to see what’s inside.
Lipstick that stays FOREVER and looks soo good is the mabaline matte ink - I get mine from walmart but I believe it is sold at other places too! They have a perfect my nude color that I wore on my wedding, and I wear it all the time while teaching. Stays on and looks great! Just make sure you exfoliate first because it is a bit drying! Cant wait to see you as a bride ❤
Kiss has a black liner/glue that I used on my wedding day and omg I love it so much!!! Lashes stayed all day n night! I use it all the time now as a makeup artist and refer everyone to it!
Keep the random boxes coming. My parents were in a horrific accident last night so when I saw this video today it made me feel better for a little bit. I always look forward to your videos.
i love these random box unboxings! they’re so fun! still waiting for some wedding content 😍 A plus of having such a collection of boxes is you have everything you need to make goodie bags for your bridesmaids ❤
Girl, I would be in Heaven if I was there!! I am like a lil kid on Christmas when I get packages, especially when I know it's makeup. My son constantly asks when you're getting married. Lol. Are you wearing extensions?? If not, your hair looks good anyway.
Great video as always!! I saw She Crafty uploaded Advent calendars but I can't bring myself to watch them yet. It's become a tradition that I start my holiday season with watching your first advent calendar. Then I can watch others😆😂
OMG Beware of the chic beauty box one. I subbed last month for first time and they withdrew over $300 from my account within 3days without my permission...
Use a card that allows you to use virtual account numbers valid for ONE use, perhaps that could solve predatory billing for recurring charges. I've only heard of political donations making multiple withdrawls.
Your own wedding makeup?! 🙀 I do my own makeup just about every day. Have been for a few years now. I get complimented on it at least 2-3 times a week. Wild horses could not convince me to do it on my wedding day. How brave! You go, girl! 🙌
Hi I did my own wedding makeup last year and wore Maybelline superstay mat ink crayon it's comfortable last a long time and easy to reapply when needed. They also mat ink liquid lip and a 24 hour color thar has a balm you apply over all are very nice
Love the random roundup! The liner glue is meant for eyelashes like you first thought it’s just like colored eyeliner and lash glue combined. I would’ve loved that!
I used the Poutsicle from Fenty as a lip stain for my wedding and it was perfect for that stained look and I think I only reapplied it once! A great product I can definitely recommend 😊
Ooh! The maybelline super stay ink (comes in a lip crayon and a liquid lip) stay forEVER. Wore a super dark color out to dinner, drinks, and karaoke after-came home in the early morning and my lip color was completely intact, no touch ups
Lipstick recommendation: I think your describing Clinique's Black Honey Lipstick....it gives a beautiful red stained look. I wear it's dupes ELF - Black Cherry sheer Lipstick and Burts Bees - Red Dahlia daily. I think it would be the perfect colour for a winter wedding.
Loved these random unboxings. And i am so excited for the Advent calendar season with you. Your advent calendars are my favourite videos to watch during December 🤗
NYX makes a beautiful and stay put matte lip/ clear gloss combo in so many gorgeous shades. Affordable, gorgeous and it stays on me until I wash it off. 10/10 recommend
Check out either the Maybelline Vinyl Lip Stick or the NYX Shine Loud lipsticks!! They're SUPER long lasting and slightly glossy. Totally transfer proof, even through greasy food.
I love my CHIC boxes. It's actually my favorite box! Profits from this box help homeless woman get a good start in life. It's a mix of drugstore and high end makeup. It was started by a social worker and I'm all for helping other women. They have choice as well. I also can't stand glossy box. I cancelled it a couple years ago.
A great lip stain I just discovered is by Clairns. It's the lip comfort oil intense. I already used the regular one but this one is more pigmented and definitely stains. The red stained my lips a blue/red colour that lasted all day. Just make sure you exfoliate first or it will cling to dry bits. For a good stay put matte lip colour try the Sephora Collection Lip Stain. I have 10 of them (mostlly varying shades of nudes) and they last VERY VERY well. My faves are: always red, infinite rose, marvelous mauve, first date, and pink cashmere.
Have you thought of doing a massive unboxing of all of your stock x there are videos like this, it would make a great video and would sort out your boxes x
Hey Alex, whatever you've been doing to revive your hair is doing awesome!! Your hair looks so thick and voluminous!! Also, so ready for 2022 advent calendar extravaganza
I can recommend the Gérard Cosmetics Hydra Matte lippies. They stay on super well, and they're comfortable to wear too! If you want to go drugstore the Maybelline matte inks are fab too!! My 2 favourite liquid lips. 💖🏴
It may be _way_ too late, but your skin tone right now is _lovely._ It doesn't look ghostly or sickly, and it's a nice complement to your hair color. I would keep it exactly as it is! With the exception of my eyeliner, which my steadier-handed friend did, I did my own wedding makeup as well, as I'm really glad I did. I put extra care into my hair and makeup, but wore them in "everyday" (like: work, church, date night) styles and it was possibly my wisest aesthetic choice. I love looking back at my photos and seeing someone who is recognizably *me.*
Hey Alexandria!!! I get those hair elastics and they are awesome. I mean they aren't that exact brand lol, but even the super cheap ones that I get at dollarama work really well for my thin hair and my three girls, very, very thick hair. I think that you'll enjoy them. Love you lady, keep up the awesome content ❤🧡💛💚💙💜🖤
Try a lip liner instead of looking for a lipstick for your lip (for the wedding I mean)! I feel like we have similar skin tones (I might be a bit darker) but I have a Rommel one called Eastend Snob 063 that sounds like what you are looking for (for me it barely looks like anything)! It’s pretty cheap too (I’m in Canada but I assume you would have the same colour options there)!
That's a good idea! Some of my lip liners last a lot longer than my lipsticks! The only advice I have to add to this is exfoliate and moisturize your lips first, cause lip liner will show cracks.
Have faith in your bridal makeup abilities! Your makeup always looks gorgeous 💗 I’ve been watching you for years & I don’t subscribe to a single subscription box anymore, I’ve stuck around for your personality. Always so lovely to watch you! 🥲
How sad I’ve been wanting that James Charles x morphe palette for ever but I didn’t want to pay the morphe coat or what they’re wanting on eBay. 😂😂. I like that chic box. It’s interesting the assortment of things you get.
I was really worried about getting a tan for my wedding (we're actually getting married on the same day!) as I feel really self-conscious about my body, but I wanted to see what a tan would look like ahead of my dress fitting. Did I feel uncomfortable? HECK YES! Was it worth it though? Also, HECK YES! I asked around for recommendations, looked at reviews and I took the plunge. I made some mistakes with prep, but very glad I had a test run and it faded really beautifully and looked really natural. Pro-tip... use The Ordinary's Glycolic Acid in place of deodorant for approx 24-48 hours prior to tanning and afterwards too. Can also use it on any areas that have become too dark.
Maybe try the Kaleidos Cloud Lip Clays for your wedding lippie! They're liquid lips but designed to give a more blotted appearance and are long lasting but not overly drying
I'm not sure if they have the color you want but the bite beauty beauty lipstains are amazing. They don't dry out they wear off beautifully and you're left with a gorgeous stain the lasts day!
Have you tried beauty bakerie lip whips? They last!!! I wear them whenever I am going someplace and I don’t want to keep touching it up. I get nervous and.chew my lip or if I am going to be consuming beverages…they stay well.
Maybe pillow talk medium? It's a your lips but better . Think it would look beautiful on you!! I'm so happy for you! Been watching you for a long time now and it's been so amazing getting to know you! I hope your wedding day is everything you want and more!! 😻🐷🍂🍁
I really enjoyed seeing the makeup heavy boxes! I would love it if you would do a video where you open all the makeup heavy boxes you have lying around an try to find your perfect wedding makeup look and do a full face at the end of the video :D
I bought an eyeliner lash glue from Marshall's not too long ago that I absolutely love! Traditional lashes were always very difficult for me. The magnetic liner lashes were a bit better, but the magnets didn't stick as well as I wanted and the liner was a bit hard to work with. The Creme Shop liner glue is black, makes a nice line, and attaching the lashes is infinitely easier for me. Actually got me into using lashes more because I didn't have to spend so long just to get them decent looking!
You should get those little disposable makeup applicators like they have ( or used to have, not sure) at Sephora and other makeup sellers. So then you can try a lip color that may look meh in the bottle but might look different on and still keep the product clean.
Mulan is my favorite princess, too!! When I went back to finish my college degree, I had to write a huge paper on a media item and tie it to a communication theory. I used Mulan and the Muted Group theory. Still my favorite paper, and it got an A!😂 😂
Definitely would like to see more of these videos! I don’t think you were talking too fast or not showing the products fast enough. I think your videos are great!
Yay. More please. Not alone looking forward to Advents this year. Do not let it I interfere with your wedding and congratulations again. Thanks for this. Fun randoms. The tiny IBY shadows are great - nice payoff and shades. That shampoo set.. and spray... hmmm. Luv great smelling hair. I use the masks on hair ends and enjoy very much. Sharing. Happy Sunday
Hey guys! Today I am back with another Random Round-up of boxes! We are going to open 6 boxes today! One of them made a little mistake though, can you guess which one? Let me know which box is your favorite? Love ya💖
The story about your perpetual bun made me think of Amy Winehouse. I mean, the poor woman appeared to style her hair by teasing with an egg beater. I'm certain you looked perfectly fine. In comparison. 😉
Get a Jeffree star liquid lip for your wedding - they do NOT move
In your opinion, what would be the best subscription box to subscribe to? I have been wanting to start a subscription but I want to get the best deal.
A hint is to write the month/season and yr on the package when it comes in! 🌸✌️💜
If I had to pick a box, it would be the Look Fantastic. I'm game for more random roundups.
Please do not spray tan before your wedding! If you do, do it many weeks before. It will rub off on your dress if you're wearing white or cream! I've had not one, but two friends ruin their dresses to spray tans. Both did it days before too! Just lookin out for ya ♡

AND WEAR GLOVES YOU...
Professionally done doesn’t come off at all, thankfully. Also, the dress gets ruined in other ways anyways 😄.
not if done professionally, and I would def say to get it a few days before and just make sure to maintain it with moisturizer, shower as little as possible and make sure to stay in it when you get it overnight (then rinse in the AM). Coming from someone who does them and has had them done for years but yes, def don't tan yourself!
Anybody else just waiting for her to discover a 2021 Advent Calendar in all those boxes?
🙋🏻♀️
Hahaha omg I would laugh
Totally thought that first one was 😂
😂
YESSSS
I really like these random box videos. I don't think this video was too long at all. You could've opened 10 more boxes and I'd happily watch.
Me too!
I agree with both points as well! 🙂
me too!
Same! After the first few boxes I tapped the screen and let out a sigh of relief when I saw the video had more time.
@@brittanycrutchfield4035 I did the same.
A couple of weeks after I saw your video about your alopecia I found a silver dollar sized bald spot on the back of my head. I was diagnosed with alopecia too. My dermatologist said I might find other bald spots in the future and today I found another one. I think about you, your struggles with it and your courage in letting the world know now more than when I watched your video the first time. Hair loss sucks, but you've made mine a little easier, so thank you.❤
Mine is thinning in the front and center, a little. 😥
Sending love to you both, I suspect I have the same problem 💚💜
I have alopecia as well. Sending ❤️ too all y'all!
Fellow alopecian here ✋
Future Livestream Idea: you open up all the boxes in your home on camera and you don't stop until they're all open lol.
But for real, love the Random Roundup!
That would be a fun NYE thing!
WOW! That would be an amazing fundraiser too. Like an old school telethon but actually fun. Then she could break it into hour segments for people rewatching - or those who fall asleep 😔
I was thinking the same thing!
For 500k!!!
I was about to comment the same thing, and maybe take donations and send everything to a women's shelter?
I don't understand how you can just let it all sit around. I get so excited when I get mail, I open it before I get to my house 😂
This is her job. And after several years of doing it, I'm sure she's kind of sick of it but, you know... money.
I don't get it either
Make sure to do makeup test runs with photos to check pigment and flash back
I love how the anti-wrinkle products make ppl squint to read the packaging. Those eyeshadow singles give me Barbie ™ vibes.
Right?! Its a conspiracy!! Giant hint marketing and packaging peeps: if we are interested in anti-wrinkle cream it is fairly likely that we can not read less than 10point type even with readers.
Truth 🤣
That chic box seemed a better value than a lot of the others
They send poll polls stuff though. I checked the date codes on the gel puppies I got from them and they were 5-8 YEARS o!d.
They send old stuff...sorry!
It’s like a subscription box scavenger hunt 😂
Haha!
@@Alexandria-Ryan Add this as part of your filming too!
I love it
Can I just say how excited I am for the Advent Calendar season!!! Like Eeekkkcided!!!
It’s going to be the best yet I can feel it in the air 😮😊
I don't know if she will do advent calendars this year. Her wedding is in November and then her honeymoon and I doubt she's going to want to come back and do calendars. I hope she does but don't blame her if she doesn't.
@@dianaallen5700 31:54 I also wouldn't blame her if she didn't, but if she has a stack of them then I'm sure we'll see a couple!
I'm already seeing advertisements and I'm like, "I wonder if Alexandria knows about this one?!".
I think the advent calendars are going to rip her off Like they do every year
FYI: in Asian skincare, “lotion” is used to describe a more hydrating, milky version of an essence (or toner). So it’s used a bit differently than we would use it to describe body lotion.
So very excited for another random round-up! Also getting hyped up for advent calendar season. Apparently, Sephora brand has 2 different ones, one for the lead up to Christmas, and the other for the time between Christmas and New Years.
Wow, that's an obvious cash grab. Can't wait to see her open them!
I think people that want you to talk fast and get to the product don’t value you!! You’re amazing and I love when you talk and ramble I don’t know I feel connected to you as the person you are and we are having a fun tangent convo!

This makes me want to organize all of your subscriptions 😂
Same
I love that the eyeshadow singles are in containers the same shade as the actual eyeshadows. So cute
With all your extra products you should make holiday gift bags for women's organizations.
I think she just straight up donates them so they can pick what they need and what’s suitable for them
There's also charities for children who can't get Christmas presents from their families. You can pick kids by age, I'm sure some teenagers would be happy to receive make up!
You don't need to stress yourself with finding new stuff for a wedding look. Be comfortable with what you know you like & works on your skin.
that tulip palette from Eyescream is absolutely adorable
normally I don't get too into the super stylized packaging for different makeup products (I'm just not that into makeup) but that palette is heckin adorable
Can you do more random openings! This is great
I really enjoyed this random mix. Don't forget to contact glossy box about that not being full-sized.

Aww thank you!

Keep the random boxes coming. My parents were in a horrific accident last night so when I saw this video today it made me feel better for a little bit. I always look forward to your videos.
I know it's three months later, but I hope your parents are back 100%.
i love these random box unboxings! they’re so fun! still waiting for some wedding content 😍 A plus of having such a collection of boxes is you have everything you need to make goodie bags for your bridesmaids ❤
I’ve been hearing about this wedding look for so long now. If I don’t get to see the final look I’m gonna cry. Excited for you.
Girl, I would be in Heaven if I was there!! I am like a lil kid on Christmas when I get packages, especially when I know it's makeup. My son constantly asks when you're getting married. Lol. Are you wearing extensions?? If not, your hair looks good anyway.
Your hair is looking so much fuller the past few months. And I love the darker color on you. It’s very flattering.
I was thinking it suddenly looked really long too
Great video as always!! I saw She Crafty uploaded Advent calendars but I can't bring myself to watch them yet. It's become a tradition that I start my holiday season with watching your first advent calendar. Then I can watch others😆😂
Aww, I remember the perpetual bun. That takes me back. Been watching your videos for awhile girl! 😸
OMG Beware of the chic beauty box one. I subbed last month for first time and they withdrew over $300 from my account within 3days without my permission...
Use a card that allows you to use virtual account numbers valid for ONE use, perhaps that could solve predatory billing for recurring charges.
I've only heard of political donations making multiple withdrawls.
Would love to see more of these random unboxings, can't wait for advent calendar season
Your own wedding makeup?! 🙀
I do my own makeup just about every day. Have been for a few years now. I get complimented on it at least 2-3 times a week.
Wild horses could not convince me to do it on my wedding day. How brave! You go, girl! 🙌

Love the random roundup! The liner glue is meant for eyelashes like you first thought it’s just like colored eyeliner and lash glue combined. I would’ve loved that!
My first reaction was “omg. She’s wearing an Auburn shirt!!!” I’m just as excited that you’re unboxing random boxes.
I thought the same thing!!! War Eagle!!
Me too! War Eagle!
Same! War Eagle!
I need to send you an Alabama shirt - ROLL TIDE!
I think this is the earliest I've ever been!! I remember the subscription closet ... so glad we've upgraded to a shelf 🤣
bestie i think i could watch you open boxes for hours; no video is too long
I love a random round up. When will you be unboxing advent calendars?
I used the Poutsicle from Fenty as a lip stain for my wedding and it was perfect for that stained look and I think I only reapplied it once! A great product I can definitely recommend 😊
Ooh! The maybelline super stay ink (comes in a lip crayon and a liquid lip) stay forEVER. Wore a super dark color out to dinner, drinks, and karaoke after-came home in the early morning and my lip color was completely intact, no touch ups
Lipstick recommendation: I think your describing Clinique's Black Honey Lipstick....it gives a beautiful red stained look. I wear it's dupes ELF - Black Cherry sheer Lipstick and Burts Bees - Red Dahlia daily. I think it would be the perfect colour for a winter wedding.
the Ren Ready Steady Glow is a GAME CHANGER - I've had it in my routine for about 6 months!
I think it's Dior that just recently launched a glossy lipstick that is transfer proof. Pretty incredible. Might be worth checking out 🙂
Loved these random unboxings. And i am so excited for the Advent calendar season with you. Your advent calendars are my favourite videos to watch during December 🤗
I've seen one lotion that is liquid like that... It's called corn huskers lotion. I love that stuff!!!
NYX makes a beautiful and stay put matte lip/ clear gloss combo in so many gorgeous shades. Affordable, gorgeous and it stays on me until I wash it off. 10/10 recommend
I'm pretty sure the eyeliner glue is for putting rhinestones or glitter to the liner
Check out either the Maybelline Vinyl Lip Stick or the NYX Shine Loud lipsticks!! They're SUPER long lasting and slightly glossy. Totally transfer proof, even through greasy food.
I love my CHIC boxes. It's actually my favorite box! Profits from this box help homeless woman get a good start in life. It's a mix of drugstore and high end makeup. It was started by a social worker and I'm all for helping other women. They have choice as well. I also can't stand glossy box. I cancelled it a couple years ago.
If you get Chic again be sure to check the products date codes online. The items I received were 5-8 years old.
@@carriehart1497 😲!! Oh no!! That's awful. I'm signed up for the next box and I will definitely check. Thanks for the heads up.
A great lip stain I just discovered is by Clairns. It's the lip comfort oil intense. I already used the regular one but this one is more pigmented and definitely stains. The red stained my lips a blue/red colour that lasted all day. Just make sure you exfoliate first or it will cling to dry bits.
For a good stay put matte lip colour try the Sephora Collection Lip Stain. I have 10 of them (mostlly varying shades of nudes) and they last VERY VERY well.
My faves are: always red, infinite rose, marvelous mauve, first date, and pink cashmere.
Have you thought of doing a massive unboxing of all of your stock x there are videos like this, it would make a great video and would sort out your boxes x
Alexandria, your hair is looking AMAZING!!!
Me, reading the title: I'M READY FOR THE TEA
Haha Its not too much tea but I for sure think they need to address it if its a widespread issue!
I feel like the Clinique black honey is what you need for your wedding. It may not be an all day wear lip color, but fits all your other criteria.
Hey Alex, whatever you've been doing to revive your hair is doing awesome!! Your hair looks so thick and voluminous!!
Also, so ready for 2022 advent calendar extravaganza
I can recommend the Gérard Cosmetics Hydra Matte lippies. They stay on super well, and they're comfortable to wear too! If you want to go drugstore the Maybelline matte inks are fab too!! My 2 favourite liquid lips. 💖🏴
It may be _way_ too late, but your skin tone right now is _lovely._ It doesn't look ghostly or sickly, and it's a nice complement to your hair color. I would keep it exactly as it is!
With the exception of my eyeliner, which my steadier-handed friend did, I did my own wedding makeup as well, as I'm really glad I did. I put extra care into my hair and makeup, but wore them in "everyday" (like: work, church, date night) styles and it was possibly my wisest aesthetic choice. I love looking back at my photos and seeing someone who is recognizably *me.*
Hey Alexandria!!! I get those hair elastics and they are awesome. I mean they aren't that exact brand lol, but even the super cheap ones that I get at dollarama work really well for my thin hair and my three girls, very, very thick hair. I think that you'll enjoy them. Love you lady, keep up the awesome content ❤🧡💛💚💙💜🖤
Yes! Do the Chic beauty box, because I want to try it and would love to see you open more.
For stay put lip stick check the Maybelline SuperStay Vinyl ink. That stuff is AMAZING!
⤴️⤴️ thanks for your feedback

Try a lip liner instead of looking for a lipstick for your lip (for the wedding I mean)! I feel like we have similar skin tones (I might be a bit darker) but I have a Rommel one called Eastend Snob 063 that sounds like what you are looking for (for me it barely looks like anything)! It’s pretty cheap too (I’m in Canada but I assume you would have the same colour options there)!
That's a good idea! Some of my lip liners last a lot longer than my lipsticks! The only advice I have to add to this is exfoliate and moisturize your lips first, cause lip liner will show cracks.
There are spray tanning machines at some tanning salons. It’s completely private and convenient!❤
Have faith in your bridal makeup abilities! Your makeup always looks gorgeous 💗
I’ve been watching you for years & I don’t subscribe to a single subscription box anymore, I’ve stuck around for your personality. Always so lovely to watch you! 🥲

Love the random box videos! Looking forward to the advent calendars!!
I LOVE Random box roundup!! Especially seeing where all your random boxes come from lol
How sad I’ve been wanting that James Charles x morphe palette for ever but I didn’t want to pay the morphe coat or what they’re wanting on eBay. 😂😂. I like that chic box. It’s interesting the assortment of things you get.
The fact you’re wearing an Auburn sweatshirt makes me EXTREMELY happy 😃 War Eagle 🦅
Wow I forgot about Medusa’s make up! I used to buy their products 10-15 years ago! I am so excited to check them out again
I was really worried about getting a tan for my wedding (we're actually getting married on the same day!) as I feel really self-conscious about my body, but I wanted to see what a tan would look like ahead of my dress fitting. Did I feel uncomfortable? HECK YES! Was it worth it though? Also, HECK YES!
I asked around for recommendations, looked at reviews and I took the plunge. I made some mistakes with prep, but very glad I had a test run and it faded really beautifully and looked really natural.
Pro-tip... use The Ordinary's Glycolic Acid in place of deodorant for approx 24-48 hours prior to tanning and afterwards too. Can also use it on any areas that have become too dark.
I LOVE THOSER PONYTAIL HOLDERS!! i buy mine on amazon in black or brown and they last FOREVER
I love the random opening of subscriptions boxes!!
Maybe try the Kaleidos Cloud Lip Clays for your wedding lippie! They're liquid lips but designed to give a more blotted appearance and are long lasting but not overly drying
I’m so looking forward to see your advent calendars! ☺️
I'm not sure if they have the color you want but the bite beauty beauty lipstains are amazing. They don't dry out they wear off beautifully and you're left with a gorgeous stain the lasts day!
Loved the random box unboxings, more please!!! And thank you!
My 4 month old baby boy loves your videos! He sits so nicely and watches so intently haha
Have you tried beauty bakerie lip whips? They last!!! I wear them whenever I am going someplace and I don’t want to keep touching it up. I get nervous and.chew my lip or if I am going to be consuming beverages…they stay well.
Maybe pillow talk medium? It's a your lips but better . Think it would look beautiful on you!! I'm so happy for you! Been watching you for a long time now and it's been so amazing getting to know you! I hope your wedding day is everything you want and more!! 😻🐷🍂🍁
Please do more of these! Always love your videos and this was fantastic! Keep them coming! ❤
I love that nail color!! I've been looking for a color like that for ages, it's such a classy color.
I really enjoyed seeing the makeup heavy boxes! I would love it if you would do a video where you open all the makeup heavy boxes you have lying around an try to find your perfect wedding makeup look and do a full face at the end of the video :D
I love listening to you, Alexandria! I wish you all the best for your upcoming wedding!
Love the random round up, it’s a great way to compare!
Those Bleach London soaps are GREAT. I use their no-bleach bleach and it comes with the rejuvenation conditioner. It is fantastic.
⤴️⤴️ thanks for your feedback

I bought an eyeliner lash glue from Marshall's not too long ago that I absolutely love! Traditional lashes were always very difficult for me. The magnetic liner lashes were a bit better, but the magnets didn't stick as well as I wanted and the liner was a bit hard to work with. The Creme Shop liner glue is black, makes a nice line, and attaching the lashes is infinitely easier for me. Actually got me into using lashes more because I didn't have to spend so long just to get them decent looking!
I love random unboxings!!!
You should get those little disposable makeup applicators like they have ( or used to have, not sure) at Sephora and other makeup sellers. So then you can try a lip color that may look meh in the bottle but might look different on and still keep the product clean.
Mulan is my favorite princess, too!! When I went back to finish my college degree, I had to write a huge paper on a media item and tie it to a communication theory. I used Mulan and the Muted Group theory. Still my favorite paper, and it got an A!😂 😂
Definitely would like to see more of these videos! I don’t think you were talking too fast or not showing the products fast enough. I think your videos are great!
the chaos... i love it! please do more of these :)
Omg it's almost advent calendar time feels like 2 3months ago I watched you open them this year has gone by in a blink of an eye
The ren skincare is SO good but so so so expensive. I use it daily on my face and it makes my skin glow. I look dull when I don’t use it.
Yay. More please. Not alone looking forward to Advents this year. Do not let it I interfere with your wedding and congratulations again. Thanks for this. Fun randoms. The tiny IBY shadows are great - nice payoff and shades. That shampoo set.. and spray... hmmm. Luv great smelling hair. I use the masks on hair ends and enjoy very much. Sharing. Happy Sunday
