Thank you to everyone who supports me and my channel. It is borderline killing me to launch this video but I am challenging myself to do it in hopes that it helps someone not feel alone during tough times. If you are going through something and want to share it, please feel free to do so here in the comments section. Be Kind.
I'm so sorry for your loss. Sometimes it takes a while until the grief really sets in, but when it does, it hurts more than anything in the world. I lost my grandparents back in 2019, and that didn't really hit me until late 2020... My grandpa was basically like a father to me, so it's been really hard. But long story short, you are really strong & you'll be fine. ❤️ They are with you and always will be.
Thank you for being real and relatable. We as a society are so willing to tear down each other. People seem to do that more easily to those they view as strong, happy, and 'together'. The fact that you are able to show your vulnerability even to those that may not appreciate it, speaks volumes about you. It shows that you are real and makes me enjoy watching you even more! Keep your chin up and thank you for all of your amazing talent.
I just turned 60 and my self esteem was low when I went searching for help on how to update my hair and makeup. That's when I found you and I am so grateful for you persevering through the trolls. I can't imagine being in your position. Just know that your pure intentions are deeply felt by those of us who are open to your beautiful light. I now look forward to getting ready in the mornings with your videos as my company and you as my guide. Your Grandparents were so blessed to have you as their granddaughter! Thank you Gabby. Thank you for being such a beautiful, graceful, and elegant beacon to so many!
Hi there beautiful! I am almost 71. A grandmother of 9! I want to tell you that hearing you speak about your grandparents and the wisdom your grandfather gave to you really blessed me. Thank you. I have been feeling afraid of aging. I look in the mirror and see someone with greying hair and wrinkles. It can be hard at times. But today I think how wonderful to be here. My husband and I share almost 37 years together. We like your grandparents share this wonderful journey. You my dear are so precious. Thank you for sharing your heart and your beautiful gift of helping people on life’s journey. God bless you.
I just came across your channel by happenstance. I have end stage liver disease so I'm usually up all night & sleep all day. I watched like 5 of your videos back to back because I just turned 50 & though I'm in pain & tired, I still want to look good for the sake of my children & grandchildren. Once I started watching this one however, I'm like bawling crying like 30 seconds in. What a beautiful legacy & life your grandparents story left you with. Your warmth & love for them shines so epically through your words! Please know that even though I don't know you personally, you'll be in my thoughts & prayer & thank you for your vulnerability, it's given me so much more than a "how to look younger" vid. 🙏💜
My deepest sympathies on your loss of your grandparents. I KNOW FIRST HAND what you are feeling. I am 55 and lost my 97 year old grandmother my "Nanny" in March of 2022. She was my life and has been my whole world since I was born. I took care of her and was there with her till her last breath. I wish you peace and happy memories to help take away the tears that just appear for no reason or from a smell, or a song. I love your make up videos and I will love them even more knowing you are so down to earth. Grandparents are the best! I only hope to be half of what my nanny was to me to my future grandchildren. Peace & Love
I am a grandma. I breaks my heart to see your pain. I wish I had the perfect words of comfort. Please know that your grandparents would give anything to wipe your tears way. They will always be with you through loving memories. Hugs from this Kentucky grandma.
Sadly the world is populated with more ignorant and mean people than with smart and lovable ones😩. I absolutely LOVE your channel and treasure your generosity. I am 76 year old and in the few months since I discovered your channel, I have learned so much about hair, it has literally changed my life and helped me feel and look younger. So, please, NEVER forget how many people you are helping and when those nasty comments bring you down, have a glass of “adult” beverage and put a smile on your face thinking about all of us you are helping😍
...this is the first time watching this...how?...I don't know. I'm 73 and have been battling vertigo for the last two weeks, so I'm not driving, at the moment...and scrolling my computer seems to be my current sport. I need to watch your videos on makeup for the elder...wait, more mature folk. My main concern is whether I'll be able to hear your hints above the slurping sounds of my very interesting face, drinking in the creams...I cried with you...I remember when my grandparents departed this life and I loved them so much. I'm old enough that my folks, friends, and recently...my beloved husband have also departed. Life can be so difficult at times. Remember, we're all here for a reason. We may never know, on this side, what it is, but each one of us matters more than anyone understands. As far as the people who say harsh things and judge. You'll see those folks racing around Walmart in those carts, nearly knocking us all on the floor as they grumble and curse the very air around them. They have way worse problems than the rest of us and you will learn the art of eye rolling and quiet prayers for the unlovables in this world. Our time here is incredibly brief and each day is a gift. You are gorgeous and delightful. Keep sharing your heart. Blessings to you, sweet girl. 🥰
You're just so lovely! I'm a farmer's wife in Australia, and as you'd imagine, most days I'm surrounded by blokes, dust and flies! I love watching your videos and occasionally putting a bit of makeup on and follow your tips to feel just a little bit more girly. So THANK YOU Gabi! X
I’m a brand new viewer… and trying to imagine anyone criticizing your appearance is beyond baffling to me. You’re gorgeous inside & out! How could anyone be prettier?? I can’t even imagine.
I just came across this video. It broke my heart to see you hurting. Yeah, I would love to tell you to ignore those idiots but easier said than done. But I have found that people like that are like that across the board, always angry, always judgemental. But they don't look in the mirror and see their own jealousy and insecurities, nor do they have the guts to do anything about it. You, my dear, are a natural beauty. And I could only wish to have those ass kicking eyebrows! Just breathe, trust yourself, take a break if you need to, and remember, this channel belongs to YOU.
Grief is a tricky visitor, a smell, a song, a sound, anything can trigger the sense of loss and deep grief Allow it visit for a little bit and then it will leave. You are lucky you had such a close relationship with them, cherish the memories, they're all around you 💖
Firstly Gabi, please accept my sincere condolences on the loss of your dear Grandparents. See you crying made me cry, as I could feel what a loving relationship you had. Thank you for being so honest in all the things you talked about. I’m not sure I’ve ever commented here before. I only knew one Grandparent. Both my husband and I were born to older parents, and so as we got older it was like looking after grandparents. All 4 of our parents passed away just before Covid. Mine 6 months apart, hubby’s just 3 months apart. It’s been devastating because we don’t have any close relatives, and no children. I’m 60 now, but when my in laws were sick, I landed in hospital and almost died. You are so wise when you say, one day you are young, and then you are old. I’m lucky to be 60 at this point. Facing death makes you realize the truly important things in life. Your children, husband, friends, parents, that’s all that matters. At 60, the one thing I’ve learned is that there are a lot of messed up people in this world. They do not feel good about themselves, so they criticize YOU! It’s not about you, it’s about them. They are going to make you feel bad about yourself. Knock you down a few rungs, in hopes that you’ll feel badly like they do. Looking at someone so young and beautiful such as yourself can make you feel less than if you are not young and pretty, but that’s my problem if I feel that way. A comment that is mean, is not an “ opinion”, it’s just a mean comment that does NOT serve anyone in any way. You have a right to delete that. And I wish you would. I want to see positivity but also honesty from you, and in the comments. That’s called civil society, which seems to be disappearing. You have a right to make a living Gabi. Thank you for posting such quality content and for sharing tips for aging skin and hair. I appreciate you VERY much. Tracey
I agree totally! This is my first time watching her videos and my heart breaks for how society today is so disrespectful to each other. When are we going to just love everyone and show kindness to each other? We should be encouraging each other and building each other up not tearing each other down. I hope she is able to take some time to get a support system. Everyone needs that. I think she is very beautiful and sweet. And being kind on the inside shows she has great integrity which this world needs more of today. I'll be praying for her
Hi Gabby, this is my first time watching your videos. I am so sorry for your loss watching your video and seeing you cry brought back my feelings for the loss of my parents during Covid. I lost my mom and dad a week apart. A double funeral was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do. Losing your love ones takes a very large part of you. The only thing that gets me through is my faith. Well, I don’t know where you are in your faith. but I will definitely be praying for you. Grieving is a very hard thing to go through but on a different note, I am a hairstylist, and I’ve been in the business 35 years . And in that 35 years I have been a divorced, single mom my son is 20 so my journey I feel very lonely. And every time I look at myself in the mirror, I see myself looking older. Your videos have helped me and inspired me to do my make up erent, but I find I’m very sensitive as I get older around my eyes. So if you have any advice for aging sensitive eyes, please keep me in mind thank you and keep up the awesome work you do for us girls in our different journeys, of life, Your videos are very Helpful you have brought hope and joy to my life with your tips and tricks. I love your videos don’t ever stop . Thank you
I recently lost my Mom. Nothing prepares you for watching the people who raised you; cared for you; loved you; get old and sick and die. It’s been the hardest time of my life. I’m sorry for your loss❤️
I lost my mom four months ago and the pain is still very bad. I lost my dad in 1970. He was only 39. But losing a mother - she gives you life, she teaches you everything she knows in hopes it will help you in your life ahead. She sacrifices everything for her children. It is very, very hard. I believe the only thing harder would be to lose my husband. I'm so sorry for your loss and your pain, and for what Gabi is feeling.
@@carolwalsh2181 I read this quote once ( I don’t know who said it)-“I knew I was no longer a child when my mother died. I knew there would never again be anyone who would always put me before themselves.” That really hit home 😢
I am a new subscriber and I have NEVER left a comment on anyone's channel before. I want to congratulate you on your ethics, and honesty. I understand sponsorships. As an interior designer, I have been asked so many times to promote products. If I don't like the company policies, the product, or if I like the product, I will speak about it with MY WORDS, not theirs. I also related so much to you about your grandparents. I grew up with mine. I cried with you.I will be 70 soon, and I still miss them after 30 years. I love your make-up and skin care tutorials for women my age. Looking natural with a warm glow is key. My mother is 87 and that is how she has always done her make-up. People think she is much younger. You are a beautiful soul. Your gentleness and kindness shines through. Never change for anyone. If you ever need a shoulder...
My thirties were the hardest time in my life, both personally and professionally, and I was not a self-employed TH-cam content creator, trolled by anonymous non-subscribers, critiqued by ignorant strangers, or abused by brands. Thank you for sharing your experiences, and remember that miserable people want others to be miserable. They are toxic.
Yup, I always tell my kid, "hurting people, hurt people" (just like how you said "miserable people want others to be miserable") & it's so TRUE. You won't find a happy, well adjusted person trolling anyone, especially on TH-cam (as they are probably too busy with their wonderful life).
I just started watching you. I'm so impressed by your knowledge. You explain things so clearly & easily. You've made me want to try to look & feel better. You've lifted my spirits. It's so true that so many people "fake it till you make it" by trying to put a smile on their face. Meanwhile, they are feeling so bad & insecure about themselves. I know this because I live it everyday. You are a genuinely decent, lovely, beautiful woman. Both inside & outside. My heart is breaking for you losing your wonderful, loving grandparents. They will always be with you in spirit & in your heart. It's easy to say, screw all those trolls but I know it's hurtful to you. I'm so sorry there are so many horrible people in this world. Anyway, you're better than them in every way. Keep up the good work. Take care of you for a while. Your family loves you ❤ & that will be your strength. Best always.
It is such a shame how this world has switched from what used to be a higher number of kind people who would never try to hurt someone, to people who get off on cruelty to others. I respect how this makes you feel, and admire you for not letting them succeed in tearing you down, to the point of leaving. A lot of it is shear jealousy. Keep up what you do Gabi! I am also a hairstylist of 36 years. You are fantastic at everything you do. So sorry for the loss of your grandparents. Keep on keeping on!!!
It does feel like the world is getting crueler doesn't it Shelia? Thank you for your kind message and for taking the time out of your day to watch and support.
So sorry for your loss! I am sorry to hear that bullying comments from unhappy people are taking a toll on your mental health... You’re a kind person, so mean and negative comments affect you greatly! Remember most of us love you and your channel. Warm wishes for you and your family!😍🥰❤️💗💙😘😍💕
Ditto. I also know there are professional haters whose job it is to just make horrible comments on channels of all kinds, so they aren’t actually authentic but horrible nonetheless. You are beautiful & provide great content ❤️
Dear Gabi, My sincere condolences for the loss of your elderly grandparents. I commend you for expressing your heart-ache and feelings. publicly…the devastation of your loss. You’re sharing ‘the human experience’. Never, ever underestimate the possibilities of your potential Gabi. I see you as authentic and would bet I’m not alone on that assumption. ‘Be bold, be brave’, beautiful soul. 💕 🦌 🕊️ 💜 ❤️ 🖤 🕊️ 🌷 P.S. I’d bet your grandfather called you so often, not because of boredom, but of adoration For You, Gabi. XOX 💕
Dearest Gabi I pray you would have peace through this time of grief after loosing your grand parents. You are so precious! You are helping God's women get through the bad hair days! Know how high, how deep, how wide and how long God's love is for you! Make sure you take off a day a week and enjoy your family! Go and see the movie Jesus Revolution. You will not regret it! Life is a series of tests and trials. God wants you to turn to Him for help. When it comes down to it - it is all about your soul! Where will you spend eternity? It wasn't until I cried out to God for help that He answered me. Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and all His righteousness and all these other things will be given you! God wants your heart. I ❤️ you very much and will keep you in prayer for God to comfort you the way only He can! Frances (former hairdresser)
I'm 64 years old and have been following you for awhile. Your content has helped me and given me so many great tips for my hair and makeup... not to mention I truly enjoy them. Today your words were so truthful and heartfelt. As a mature woman who has lost many, I felt your grief and encourage you to feel it as well. You will never get over the loss, but you will reach a place of love and remembering. As for the haters, as women we are the worst... to each other and to ourselves. You are beautiful...inside and out. I personally thank you for all that you do on this channel. ❤
Dear Gabi l get so angry when people write mean comments about being sponsored…or say nasty things. We get beautiful people like you making content for us and we don’t pay you. Yes we might buy from a site but that is probably Pennie’s . I am new. I did hair for a long time and just found out today my back has suffered from doing hair ( bad stenosis..arthritis ) and I have been pretty miserable. I don’t want to get down about the pain. I have watched people who are paralyzed from accidents and they are cheerful and do utube to make some kind of living. I want to be positive. Keep getting sponsors Gabi. Some people are jealous and want to tear you down…please don’t let them. Take care of yourself sweet girl. ❤
I hear you. Was supposed to retire, sell house move south with my husband. He passed away right before we did all this. I end up going alone living by my sister. It’s hard, l’m 68 and don’t know where l’m going. Yeah l couldn’t do what you do. You are brave and honest and l for one appreciate it.
Not everyone gets old. My mum passed suddenly at age 42. Went for a walk to the hairdresser and that was it... I was just 20 back then. Life is tough when we lose people we love. Sending hugs your way xx
I was 15 when I lost my mom, she was 42 as well. She struggled with mental issues and was trapped in a bad marriage with a man who only gave her $1 a day (it was the 80s and cigarettes cost a dollar back then). Anyway, she committed suicide when she purposely knelt in front of an AM Track train. It’s still painful to even think about.
@Falcon Eddie I'm deeply sorry for your loss. I lost my husband at the age of 43 to suicide. It is much different than a traditional death. I too, am pained to think about it. God bless you.
I RARELY write comments on youtube; perhaps 3 my whole life! I LOVE your channel, you are beautiful (and I can tell you're young ;), professional and I trust your overview of the products you present. I've bought a few different things at your recommendation and adore them. As a 50 year old high school teacher, I'm always shocked at how we can speak to each other over social media; not having to look the person in the eye and not allowing that person to rebuttal or defend themselves. Your insights to this career choice is truly eye opening; I lifted you up in prayer today.
Wow Katherine thank you so much for taking he time to leave me a message with so much insight. I am really thankful to have people like you on this channel. Being a content creator is a relatively new career and it is amazing in many ways but also incredible hard in others. I don't think anyone talks about it but the mental health struggles that come with it can be all consuming. I'm sending you a virtual hug.
I'm so sorry for your loss. The way you present yourself and your content is a lovely testament to your grandparents. You are a beautiful young woman and the fact that you are taking the time and interest to help us aging women look and feel good about ourselves speaks of the person you are. So glad I found you!
You mentioned that your husband is an engineer, I am too. I’ll try to reassure you with the following. In my professional office job of 15+ years, I’ve experienced so much bombardment of criticism, snide attitudes, hurtful feedback, etc. The nastiness is EVERYWHERE. I hope you understand my intention here, feel comforted that your suffering is not exclusive to your type of work, we’re all battling through the jungle of life, have heart!
I think you are beautiful. I love watching your videos. I am 58 and I wish I kept myself because I was extra too. People are horrible, definitely delete nasty comments and when you delete them consider detaching from them. I use the 5 second rule I learnt from Mel Robbins, she uses it for taking action and not procrastinate but I use it for when I remember something nasty someone did or said to me. when something pops in my head that is bad I repeat counting backwards from 5 to 1 until it is clear from my mind. the more I use this technique the quicker it works. It also keeps me conscious and in the now. I hope this helps you somehow. I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my grandparents when I was really young so very few memories but I lost my dear parents in 2017 with 4 months apart and I am still devastated and miss them so much everyday. Sending you much love and support from the other side of the camera:)
Remember that during the first part of your video you talked about really matters the most in life, which is the love between families and friends and people's ❤️ hearts and being with the ones you love. The older I get the more I realize that love of God, others and self supports everything else we do! #1. You are doing alright sister!
I am so sorry for the loss of your grandparents. At 73 I have lost family and friends and it's heartbreaking. I do love what your grandfather said and I will try to remember that. Gabi, you are one of my favourites and I respect what you say and show us. I now realise so many don't vet a product and then it becomes a "fail" later. That is so frustrating to me--especially after I've purchased it. Please take a deep breath, know that you are very. much appreciated by most and keep going.
Hi! I’ve been watching (and rewatching) your videos about a month. You are awesome! You have literally changed my look. I’ve been getting so many compliments. I’m turning 60 at the end of the year. I’ve been regretting seeing that Birthday. Thanks to you I am no longer regretting turning 60! You have given me the confidence, technique and the correct makeup for me to use. So I want to thank you! There are more people that appreciate you.
I recently found your channel. I am 65 years old and appreciate your advice as a makeup expert on how to apply makeup on mature skin. I appreciate help from anyone. I really appreciate your love you still have for your grandparents. Those memories and feelings of love are so very special. When I see a negative comment on any site, I feel sorry for the person. Imagine what they are going through to write such negative words? It saddens me to know it’s hard for these people to see the positiveness in anything. They are so scared to put themselves out there to do videos. Keep going, you have so much to offer. ❤😊
Your beauty is what brought me to your channel. My mother owned a beauty salon on cosmetic company for 50 years. Your content is spot on! The haters can just move on. It's easy to make nasty comments behind a keyboard. Your beauty, sincerity and confidence are what I enjoy! You continue to be yourself and don't apologize for your natural beauty!!! Much peace & love!!!
You are so blessed to have such a connection with your grandparents. Many grandchildren don’t have special grandparents. Thank God for the love you received from them.
Girl, I am almost ten minutes in while starting to write this, and I am crying so much. My heart aches for you because I know how hard it is to lose a grandparent, and all growing up, you had the biggest heart! I wish there was a way to just wipe all the pain away, but if you just take the hits as they come and let the waves of emotion wash over you even through the tears, those memories bring you closer to them and eventually bring you peace so you can smile when you think about them. I know that's wordy, but it's true. My grampa passed in October, and I still find myself crying and wishing he would call and bother me again. I'd give anything to stay on a call with him for an hour trying to figure out how to get his music on his ipod, but then I also find comfort from knowing he's no longer in pain. I know this type of content isn't what you're normally comfortable with, but I'm grateful you were brave enough to do it. It wasn't the way I planned to spend my morning, but I'm glad I got the opportunity to! I really want to re-connect in the near future. We need to get the trio back together because life is hard, and we need to support the people we love. You and your arched brows are absolutely beautiful!! You're not alone either I hope you know that! ❤️💕
Tiffani thank you so much for taking the time to leave that comment and for spending the morning with me. It's the little things isn't it? I would do anything now to feel annoyed at him for calling me 5 times in a row when I was in the middle of doing a wedding party. And then half the time when I picked up, he was half out of frame on the Ipad because he didn't know how to centre himself on the screen. HAHAHA! I know one day I will think about all of this and it will make me feel happy. But right now it just makes me feel tremendous sadness. One foot at a time right? You can fast forward through grief.
You are beautiful! I love your heart, honest, and morals. Just know the haters are the ones that are jealous of not only your outward beauty, but your internal beauty. I just found you today when I searched how to transition to my natural gray hair. I will continue to follow you as I love your content. I also want to give you my condolences about your grandparents. Children's relationships with Grandparents are some of the most important in the world. Hang onto all your memories with them. Best, Susan
Gabi, I just finished watching this video and wanted to tell you first off that I think you are absolutely beautiful. And how your platform on TH-cam changed my hair and my life. I am almost 70 and started losing my hair, when I started searching for videos and found you. I knew I wasn't alone and you didn't have to be 70 to have thinning hair. I bought some of the hair tools and products you recommended (Tymo Hot Air Brush) by the way I had purchased a hot air brush in the past but didn't know how to use it correctly till I saw your video. My husband of 32 years said this was the best my hair has looked in all those years. So thank you for all of your help and advice in making me feel sooo much better about myself.
Thank you for sharing everything that you do, for us, Gabi. I can tell you from the experience I had a few yrs ago of my husband dying traumatically after an outpatient procedure gone wrong to my son taking his own life last year, that life is not always how we expect it to be. And we learn from these terribly hard things to give ourselves grace. When no one else is there, you have to love yourself enough to take care of you every day, every minute, every breath, whatever that means for you. And eventually you find a peace in the eye of the storm, and you know you will be ok. Be ok, girl, take care of you. You have to put on your own oxygen mask before you help anyone else❤
It's sad that people can't just "stay in their lane". As a recovering people pleaser, I have struggled with being OK with just being me. I love Brene Brown's talk about how to stop giving your power away to critics. Stay strong and keep embracing YOUR glam Gabi!
I'm a new subscriber, and I have loved watching your videos. I'm so very sorry for your loss. I can't imagine how hard it would be to lose grandparents who feel like second-parents. My grandparents/my husbands grandparents were not people we knew well, so I don't have that experience at all. But I hope that, with time, your memories become beautiful and wonderful and less sad as you reflect on how they influenced your future, your children's future, and your outlook on life. A blessing, but so hard when loss occurs. Also, sponsor away! The people who have concerns with ethically reviewed sponsors really aren't business minded and would never understand the importance of sponsorship in survival. And we are the same age, and I think you look super natural and beautiful. As a Midwest American, people in this area think that when you are 37 you should look like, 50! They stop taking care of themselves, on average, at 25, so they don't get a 37 year old who is vibrant and lovely. You do you! And carry on. You are providing a super great service to those of us in the 'mid years'. I feel like there is content for those under 30 and those over 50, but the 30-50 year old who want to look professional, lovely, and pretty is missing. Thanks for representing that. My mother always said that women who criticize you are jealous. Agreed. Don't listen to them.
Gabi you are a very beautiful lady inside and out. People that say negative things about you are really jealous of how beautiful you are and the fact that you have a great channel and you seem to have a great home life with children and successful husband. I learned along time ago when I was in my 30’s that women are very vicious at times especially when they feel threatened by someone else’s beauty when in reality women should be building other women up instead of tearing them down due to their own insecurities. The bottom line is you are giving us the best beauty advice for free. Free to us that is but it’s your time that you are using to give us all these tutorials. I personally am very grateful to you and respect you and your opinions. I have learned a lot from you and even talk about you to other people in my life for instance my hairdresser just last week. I am 58 years old and am struggling with some of the aging issues. I was a pretty woman just a few years ago but when my parents passed away It took a real toll on me. After about 5 yrs I’m finally learning how to live with them gone and wanting to try and get atleast a part of the old me back. That’s how I found your channel and was instantly impressed with you and your advice on aging and hair and makeup techniques. So I just want to say Thank you so much for everything you do and always remember there are way more people here that appreciate you than the ones that are jealous. They just need to move on to someone else’s channel that they like if that’s even a remote reality. Hang in the beautiful and hope you have a fantastic day!♥️😊🙋🏻♀️
Gabi, you are a brave woman with an abundance of integrity. The naysayers are tremendous teachers, nothing more. They help you understand why compassion and empathy is crucial and judgement is useless and unproductive. Your content is valuable and well received. Consider yourself, as a thirty something woman to be blessed. The social media challenges will never go away but your response can evolve with time. You truly are an amazing woman!
You are a gorgeous soul! Your videos have helped me feel confident about my extremely thin hair that doesn't seem to grow. Most content creators show up here with long luscious manes pushing the latest lip gloss as the solution to all your troubles. But you are honest and caring and get real, sharing your professional and personal experience in benefit of your viewers. I truly appreciate you and your advice. I'm a text translator and also work alone from home all day, you are great company to me and make me feel in touch with real beauty trends, like a friend at school! "Those who mind, don't matter, and those who matter, don't mind," said the great Dr. Seuss. Sending you big hugs with lots of love!
Ppl are cruel. I love all your tips and tutorials. I’m 51 and have never really been good at the makeup game. I’m sorry for your loss. You are absolutely gorgeous and I thank u for sharing your knowledge with us. ❤❤
Look up the word gaslighting... Comments lies you're being gaslight then doing it to yourself. Just be yourself...this is the time I've discovered your knowledge. You're intelligent and talented.
Not me crying before 10am! The Grandparent loss is a hard one that even with time always hurts. Love your grandpa's outlook on one bad yr for a lifetime of good ones. Love these vulnerable videos ❤️
Thanks Summer. I am sorry for starting your morning with tears but sometimes we all just need a solid cry right! I am happy that it was only a couple of challenging years for a whole lifetime of happiness. I hope that I am so lucky.
How caring and warm you are as you speak you share with a greatful heart thank you it is healing to cry a share and we you audience care that you suffer from Adelaide South Australia thanks
So sorry for your loss.. heartbreaking to see you cry. As far as the horrible comments that you are reading on your channel, most people do not feel that way. You are doing such a wonderful job on your content in which I learn so much even at 55. I Thank you for that. You are very genuine and authentic. Don’t change. Love from BC. Q🇨🇦🥰
I know this video is 2 months old but I pray you see this YOU ARE A STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL WOMAN!!!! Not only outside but inside as well!! Miserable people write miserable things. Lots of love from me to you❤❤❤❤
🥰 Hi, I’m so sorry about what happened with your grandparents. They were so blessed to have such a loving granddaughter. I’m 73, I just watched a video of you doing the makeup of an older woman, she looked gorgeous. I think that it’s good that you shared what is going on in your life-sometimes we need to get things out and cry, and hopefully you will receive a lot of genuine encouragement. I liked hearing about how ethical you are with sponsors. I only follow a handful of people, in all different areas-but they are all ethical and genuine. I will be following you. Also about the sponsors pushing people to lie and say things prematurely about their products-I didn’t know how bad it was-I’m glad that you shared that, it’s a burden. You need sponsors that you believe in. I hope that as you continue to heal from the deeply emotional things that have happened-I hope that you will get back some or a lot of your confidence and be able to distance yourself emotionally from these abusive, hateful people. It truly seems that there are more boldly hateful people than ever before. They have a problem. God bless you, your family, and your channel. ❤️ Love and prayers 🙏
Not a regular here but you popped up today.Divune intervention? I'm nearly 65 and my father recently passed away with a combination of struggles both your dear grandparents. We are never ready for their passing no matter our age or relationships we have with them. I cried along with you even before you bravely shared your heart. Know that you helped me release more of my grief but also allowed me to feel more of the love in my heart and gratitude for the love we all share for each other as a collective. Sending you and your family heartfelt condolences and cherish the memories as you travel your journey with your family . THANK you for your video and bless you.
I'm in my sixties and your genuine love for your Grandparents is so touching💕. This is part of life. The tough part.. God bless you and your family. Memories of them will always be a part of you. They helped to mold you into the wonderful person you are💕. Family and love are so important. I cried when I saw this video. I loved my Grandma. She passed when I was 27 years old. Her memory lives inside if me!! She was the only Grandparent I remember! Their gift to you was Love!
You were so blessed to have such wonderful grandparents who lived long lives. I love your grandfather's sayings!!! You're going through a rough patch but it will get easier. Hang in there girl.
I know! I am so lucky to have had them for as long as I did. I will always think about all the words of wisdom they gave me and how much they made me feel loved. What a tremendous gift I was given.
I am so sorry for the loss of your Grandparents. I cried as I watched you talk about them. It is a different kind of loss when it's someone that you share so many happy memories with from your life. I lost my Dad 6 years ago this June and my Mom passes this past December. I feel like this special part of my life has slipped away forever. I can never go home again because it's gone. Mom isn't cooking in the kitchen and Dad isn't building a fire. I don't smell homemade bread anymore or car grease on my Dad as he fiddled with the cars in the garage. It's a weird feeling. It's okay to cry. It will sneak up on you when you least expect it. You now have two guardian angels watching over you. I did laugh at the part when you talked about your Grandpa calling you. My Dad would call me at 5 a.m. on a Saturday when it was 8 a.m. where he lived. I would say Dad, it's 5 a.m. and he would laugh and say oh yea. Then he would keep talking about why he called. I really miss those calls now. On the topic of people making you feel bad. Don't give them the power. You have a kind heart and have worked hard to achieve your success. Then there is the fact that you are an absolutely stunning women. These people are haters. Some need to make others feel bad in order to make themselves feel better about their own bad decisions. I can see that there are so many people out here that love you. Have a wonderful day!
You DO NOT have to let people be unkind to you because you think they have a right to their "opinion". Opinions are like ..., everyone has one. They serve the purpose in the bathroom, not online. No one has the right to be unkind. They choose to be unkind about how they share their opinion which reflects more on them and how they feel about themselves. It has nothing to do with you. You are beautiful inside and out and I am so thankful for what you do, you have no idea how helpful it is. And your grandparents are living in the light and peace of the love and understanding you have for them in your heart. Thanks for sharing them with us.
You share beauty and wisdom so often. Thank you for sharing pain and memories, too. And so much love. It really shines through. Your grandparents must have been wonderful. Grief is the price we pay for love, Elizabeth II said, and it's so true. Hugs to you and your family. And considering social media: it's great and helpful and informative - and it's a paradise for mean people. Thank you for your honesty, and I'm certain you'll get stronger again and these comments won't affect you.
Gosh that really hit home. "Grief is the price we pay for love." Love is such a profound and incredible thing that I would take it all in order to continue to get the kind of love I have been lucky enough to receive in my life. I think you're also right about it not affecting me as I get stronger. I am just a little fragile at the moment so things hit harder. I am getting there though. Thank you for taking the time to leave me such an insightful and helpful comment.
I think it was a blessing that your grandparents passed so close together - neither of them had to do without the other for very long. When I get sad and lonely for loved ones I've lost, I say a prayer for them. It's good for me and for them. It really seems to help. I hope this tip can help you, too. Rest assured, your video is exactly the message I needed to hear. So the video that was so difficult for you to post is, in fact, a blessing in this world. I applaud both your courage and your message. In the words of an old Irish prayer, "May the Good Lord keep you in the palm of his hand."
Thank goodness your grandfather went quickly and your grandmother soon after. My parents were married at 16 and my dad passed when they were 73. My mom started praying that day to join him but lived almost 14 years longer. She also had dementia and was nonverbal and non mobile the last three years. It broke my heart daily to know she just wanted to be with her love. It’s so hard to watch especially when you can’t do anything to help.
Gosh that is the most heartbreaking thing EVER. I agree that it was the best case scenario for them because after he passed, she only had to live with that grief for a few short months. Talking to her during those months were horrible though. I will never forget her pain and the sadness that the end of life can bring.
I have heard from others about how cruel some of the comments can be. I have not had that experience - but then I am not a content creator. I started watching these kind of videos during COVID and found them very helpful - especially the skin care ones. I just found your videos recently and am so glad I did. I am 74 and especially enjoy your videos for mature women. I wish there was a way you could block a person's future comment (by name) if they were nasty. I am sorry to hear about your loss but I am sure your dedication to your grans added a lot of joy and comfort to their lives. God Bless🙏
Thank you for your courage to share so honestly from the heart. As a retired professor we were subjected to student evils and there was always a few that were hurtful. I’m so sorry you have lost your wonderful grandparents and then endured this uncalled for pain. But you are strong and resilient and wise and courageous to face the pain and loss head on. I have learned so much from you and so appreciate you sharing your knowledge and expertise with viewers. You’re in my prayers.
Oh Gabi , the pain of grief is something we all experience. It's so awful but you are not alone. Although no words can take away the sorrow that you bare. May it be comforting to you to know that all ur followers care. God be with you and your family...
You are stunning even without make up. I recently started watching your channel and noticed that you do not make others or yourself look unrecognizable. You enhance their natural beauty, allowing their confidence and happiness to shine through. Your openess about your grandparents was heartwarming, especially to someone like me, whose grandparents died before I even understood what grandparents were. Thank you for all you do!! 🥰
It's so hard losing the people closest to us. I lost my Mom in 2010 and my Dad in 2017, and my life has never been the same. You're stunningly beautiful, intelligent and youre a wonderful person. You are carrying out a legacy for your family. Just remember how proud they are of you! I'm so thankful for you and your over 50 tips. I've been sick and haven't worn makeup in a long time and you help so much! Your subscribers love you!! ❤️💋
I totally understand! You are amazing, and people are cruel. You have to read the most beautiful comments and try to ignore the bad ones! We are here for you. Hugs, Keep the faith!
Thank you for your honesty Gabi. I am so sorry for your loss. I am have just had my 70th birthday and try not to dwell on the future but enjoy and appreciate the present as much as I can. Always though as we age we are aware at some level of what our future might be. I live in hope and choose to trust my faith and belief in God whenever other thoughts intrude. I know that none of us are promised a perfect ending in this world but my hope is in the hereafter. I hope your grandparents had faith and that you do also. It has helped me through so many tough times in my life. You are BEAUTIFUL by the way. I was very lucky to look very young at your age just as you do and throughout my life until hitting 60. I hope you keep on doing your videos. You are very much appreciated.
So sorry to hear about your grandparents. How fortunate you are to have such a wonderful, attentive and loving family. Try to see yourself through their eyes. Haters are such sad people. Pity them and let them go on their way. Put your hand to your heart and ask yourself if you love that part of you they are criticizing. If the answer is yes, then let them go. You are beautiful inside and out. Luminous. When you are the light, the darkness will try to creep in. Keep shining and they will have no choice but to be illuminated by you or move on. Lots of love.
My life ended 2 years ago when my husband died of COVID. Believe me, you will go through lots of emotions when you lose someone. Emotions I could not control, no matter how hard I tried. Please take it easy on yourself and let the wound begin to heal even though it may never stop being painful. Remember the good times when you can and cry when you need to. I appreciate what you do and how you help others with your posts. You provide a useful service. There will always be haters but that is a reflection on them, not you. Have a blessed day.❤
I appreciate your authenticity today. You give tips for women who want to be as beautiful as they are by enhancing their face with the talents you have worked hard to learn. People come in and judge you, your model choices and your being young, your botox, your eyebrows. just whatever they can find to instill negativity into your vibe, these people do not like themselves, sadly thesenpeople are treating you how they feel about themselves, and no amount of tips you are sharing are going to help them, at the end of the day we all know that beauty abounds inside out. Your sharing about your grandparents touched me, reminded me of family I have loved and lost, I cried, I needed that, and your a beautiful soul!! Be Blessed, thank you. Best Piper Coleman
How beautiful you are to show your vulnerability. It will help some to realize that you are human too, not just a beauty queen. There will always be the mean people, insecure in themselves, that attack others to make themselves feel important. I am sorry that you have to experience that. It happens to teachers a lot. Continue to be the model in classy behavior as well as glamour. I am sorry about your grandparents. Both my grandparents and my parents have passed. I am glad for the good times you had with yours, and sad for the lack for time. Enjoy who is left, encouraging their stories for you to remember for a lifetime. Peace and kindness to you
I’m proud of you for challenging yourself to post this even though it’s been super hard. Your grandpa sounded soooooooooo full of wisdom! It’s so hard seeing grandparents and loved ones pass and go through that journey of life. It’s incredibly tough. I feel happy for you to have had those memories and special bond with your grandparents. I highly suggest looking into personal therapy if you’re not already going…. Look into the different types of therapy, like somatic and edmr and psychodynamic and dbt .. cbt is the average but I think there are better! Those specializing in IFS are my favorite!!!!! Many can feel shame when thinking of therapy, but it’s just a way to explore yourself deeper with someone neutral and educated, an expert! Also it’s important to find someone you fit well with, it isn’t like just finding one will be your best fit automatically. Knowing if you want a straightforward type that challenges you or calls you out OR one that listens patiently and is more of a presence and understanding and let’s YOU lead, knowing what’s best for you will help loads and asking what type they are during the interview 15 minutes will help you find a good fit. You sharing is important for yourself and others too. Keep going. Day by day, hour by hour if need be. Life is beautiful and messy and tough and exciting and hard and wonderful…. But at times we need more support, more than just friends and family. Also I wanna mention that those comments that stick and trigger, there’s some part within that’s rooted deeply with insecurity and fear, maybe fear of not being seen and understood (basic natural human need!) or an insecure of being misinterpreted.. and this can trigger deep wounds from childhood, etc. When those comments stick, it’s sticking for a reason. There’s an inner part struggling with what was said and that inner part has a truth and needs to be heard and validated. IFS (internal family systems) is ALL about recognizing internal parts and helping them and seeing them… this process can help change how we react subconsciously too. So this deep inner work (that therapy just assists with - like a dentist assisting with teeth health) helps us unlock our deeper selves understand ourself better and find ways to help ourselves, which makes us a better person and parent and partner ❤❤❤
I’m so sorry for your loss, so terribly hard. May the Lord bring your heart peace as you remember your sweet grandparents. I still miss my Grammie, she passed from Alzheimer’s and was my best friend my entire life. Bless you sweet girl and thank you for all you do, I so enjoy watching, and thank you for offering advice to us mature ladies ❤
So very sorry for your loss. I know it wasn't recently but that doesn't change anything. My grandparents were precious to me, like yours were to you and their passing, though they were old, was still very hard. They passed decades ago now, but I miss them still. I will be praying for your pain and peace of mind. I wanted to tell you ignore the rude ones but you are doing the best you can. I respect and appreciate your willingness to learn. Hang in there, learninng to live without our loved ones that pass isn't easy but does come with time. Take care of you, too. Not just everyone else. :)
Thank you for a Wonderful Eye Opening Video! I am so grateful to TH-cam for so many many wonderful, creative and super talented people like you (influencers) who have made my life so much better just by watching you and them! I know I speak for hundreds, (probably thousands during Covid) of us, who sometimes remain silent and don’t let you guys know how much you are appreciated, loved, admired, and respected… we are sooo very grateful for your videos and their content! To you and all of you hard working TH-cam people who can write, produce and star in your own Show….You guys are incredible! Honestly, how many people can remain interesting and relevant week after week, even year after year?! That’s amazing. We look forward to seeing your beautiful faces and charming personalities and wonderful content. I have learned so much about practically everything because of awesome people like you that bring so much knowledge into my life. And we certainly hope that the “bullies on the block” don’t scare you away…. and there always are bullies of some kind or another, …because then they win ! And WE lose! In reality, there are a handful of them and hundreds of us that count on you each week! So please ignore them because we need more “good” in our lives instead of bad. Please remember this when you see a negative comment… and think of music, and how we each have different tastes in songs… and just imagine that person doesn’t like the same music you do… so without judgment just ask them to “change the channel”.😂 Sorry for your terrible loss!❤
I cried so much, even though I don’t know you personally I relate to your story so much, I myself moved to Canada and my grandparents live in other country and I lost my most beloved grandpa during Covid, of course I wasn’t allowed to go to a funeral or say goodbye as he was at the hospital when he died. I still grieve now 2 years later and watching this video made me cry out loud 😢 Wishing you strength ❤ Sending you love from another fellow Canadian
After your sorrow, take comfort in the good, good life they led!!! As the late, great Queen Elizabeth said, "Grief is the price we pay for love!" God bless you in your emotional healing and be replaced with only happy memories!!!
Thank you so much for your video. First of all, you are correct, it is difficult to bear your soul. We are supposed to share both our highs and lows with others so that we can not only relate to those who have been through the same thing, but also allow those who haven't gone through anything like this to see that it is terribly sad, but we get through it. When we don't show emotion or hold our emotions inside, is when we get into trouble. Showing this emotion shows how much you cared. This honors your grandparents. At some point you might think of something special to honor them in some way, like a donation to their favorite charity in their memory. Anyway, again, thank you for sharing your most vulnerable time.
I am so appreciative of your honesty!! I totally understand how hard all of those comments much be! I have been in that space where I’ve heard 100 great comments, but the one not so bad comment is all is focus on. And that’s not even on a platform, but just real life. I know you already know those people that say nasty comments are unhappy themselves … hurting people hurt people. I watch you because you’re a bad ass at what you do and I am drawn to your beauty, sass and style. Not to mention I’ve struggled with hair loss. I am one of those more mature women that follow you - I’m 57 and I learn so much from your channel. I wish I could erase your brain from those thoughts i know I’m rambling. Just wanted to let you know that I support and respect you. Please keep being you! Do you! I love your eyebrows! Damn haters.
I have so much to say, I don’t know where to start.😢 it breaks my heart to hear your sadness and how complete strangers have hurt you. WE LOVE YOU the exact way God created you. You are gorgeous, your eyebrows are gorgeous! Stop trying to change their appearance. You are REAL. That’s why we love you. Your so intelligent and you do so much homework to help us. I am more grateful than words can express for all you’ve done for us and all I’ve learned from you. Thank you for ALL your hard work and time you spend to help us. Your beautiful INSIDE and OUT. I loved this raw, honest video of what your going. You have helped me so much. I’m going through some loneliness and deeply hurting. Please consider counseling. Please. If you decide to take a break, PROMISE you’ll come back. We need and love you so much. My heart breaks for you, losing the love of your grandpa and the closeness you had with both of them. I will be praying for you constantly!!!! The tattoo is spectacular!!!!! Your a sensitive, caring, giving, honest, authentic and loving person. You’ll NEVER be able to please everyone!!! Never! Thank you for sharing your heart and openness. WE LOVE YOU!❤
I have learned so much from your videos. I’m turning 60 this year in September and I do not feel beautiful now. I care for my Father who I’ve moved into my home after losing my Mom during Covid. Daddy has stage 4 kidney disease and he is a full time job. A short year ago I was so confident, happy, out spoken and felt I had many friends only to realize after closing my store to care for Daddy my friends are gone, my confidence is gone and I’ve aged 20 years in the past 1. My husband recently had a business trip and included me on the tale end to give me a much needed break. After months of excitement planning I was off to Rome alone to meet him. I have never been afraid to do anything or try something new. Long story short I was mugged my first day and had a major concussion and some pretty serious injuries. It’s been a month, my bruising has almost all healed but I’m not sure I will ever be the same. Not to mention my entire vacation was ruined, I can barely remember any of it, but I was in a country where I didn’t speak the language held at a hospital for over nine hours. No way to contact anyone once my phone died, which was pretty quick considering I arrived at 7:30 pm and didn’t get out until 5am. I have so many stories while in the hospital ER, that I wasn’t able to leave on my own free will was one of them. I digress, once I did finally did get released, they never stitched my head up and that was the only reason I agreed to go. I’m pointed in the wrong direction twice before I find an exit. I do not have my hotels name, it’s in my phone. I can’t call a cab, my phone is dead. After what seemed like forever (I’m certain it wasn’t) I was approached by a very large young man who spoke very little English. He was able to charge my phone to find my hotel, put me in a cab and off I went. I hope to be able to thank him one day. My husband arrived the following day and I slept in a very expensive hotel bed for for more days and night. Back home a month now I’m pretty certain I will never be the same. I believe Rome owes me a do over. That was a lot of money to pay just to sleep in another bed. I’m Bach home caring for Daddy, I’m so sad, hurt and there is know one to blame. You are so young and beautiful, please keep doing what you’re so passionate about and the haters can kiss your beautiful ass! I can assure you they are only jealous of you stature, commitment and beauty. Your a breath of fresh air and I love your videos. Stay true to you and the others can F. OFF
Ugh! This is so upsetting! I think the problem content maker have is that people feel safe making nasty comments. I taught school for 33 years. Parents could be really cruel in notes or emails, even on the phone. However, those same parents couldn’t bring themselves to say the same thing to my face. I could never do what you do because that is so hard to deal with. I’m so sorry about your grandparents. I think grief comes and goes in waves. And sometimes the pain will hit you out of nowhere. Thank you for sharing your heart.
I am in awe of your honesty and bravery. You, and women in general, have so many demands on them. Expressing your emotions is healthy and so is saying, "No." I love your channel and look forward to your videos!
Thank you for hanging in there! You are beautiful and a breath of fresh air. There are people who think stepping on someone else makes them bigger, when in reality, they truly show how small they are. I just started watching you and hope you’re around for a long time. Your honesty and morals are greatly appreciated.
Gabi (also my granddaughters name) I love you I love you I love you I do! You are such a beautiful soul and beautiful woman. You don’t have to explain yourself to anyone but the fact you did shows that you DO genuinely care about your followers. I don’t think you realize how loved and respected you are. We are so sincerely sorry for your loss Gabi and prayers are being sent to you. May the Lord wrap his arms around you and keep giving you strength and peace. You are wonderful!
Dearest Gabi ❤ You are so beautiful inside & out & when I think of the nasty people in this world all I can think of is they have wrecked my day in 5 or 10 min…. but then I think of their family who have to put up with them all day…& that thought takes it off me to feeling so sorry for their family & even praying for the family & how that person is totally wrecking their lives🙏‼️ my youngest child is 38 & I’d be so proud to have you as my daughter‼️you’ve created an amazing business,with a love to help us all, always show up bubbly & beautiful even when you don’t feel that way & to invite us into your pain of losing your Grandparents I’m so sad for you… But even love you more for letting more of you into our hearts ❣️❣️
Oh my pretty girl 😮💨 Remember we are only here for a short ride to love, to share and to learn. Your a wonderful person who gives so much know that you are the fruit of your grandparents and through you their legacy goes on. As much as it hurts you because you miss them give thanks that they are together loving and supporting you from the otherside of the vail. Huge Hug.
I understand your pain all too well. It’s earth-shattering when you lose someone, and life as you’ve always known it is forever changed. I hope you know there are more of us who appreciate you than not. You’re beautiful inside and out, and I don’t understand how people could say a mean word about you. Thank you for doing what you do, keep your chin up, you’re stronger than you think. ❤
Thanks so much for sharing this with us. I’m 51 and lost my grandparents when I was in my 20’s and I still miss them, but am grateful for every memory of them. Please don’t let mean comments stick to your heart. You’re wonderful and they don’t deserve a place there! Praying for you💕
Gabi, I just wanted to thank you for this genuine video. You are not only a stunning young women on the outside but you are just as beautiful on the inside. Remember your human and we all go throw similiar things in life. Some more than others. Continue doing what you do as beleive me you are helping others. I know we can't always shut out the noise, but don't let that effect you. Be as confident as you should. I am so sorry that your feeling all these things, but you are not alone and you will get through it. You seem like a very strong and very intellegent women. There will always be haters, that means your doing something right. keep being You!
I am a grandmother and I can tell you that I am impressed how much you reached out to your grandparents. So many kids grow up and only think of their new life and leave their grandparents behind…and lonely. You did not do that; you still embraced them and as a grandparent, I know that meant so much to them. I find the Matt Fraser videos really help me realize that our loved ones are still there and aware of our lives. You can still talk to them - they are just on the other side of a thin veil.
My deepest sympathy for the loss of your beloved grandparents. I salute your courage in making this video! Grieving is so intense and hard, especially in the midst of work and family pressures. I hope you can find ways to refill the gas in your emotional tank Please hire someone to screen your comments and take some breaks. You are an amazing artist and deserve lots of talc!
Oh honey, you are precious. Thank you for creating this amazing channel. But more so, thank you for sharing the beautiful story of your grandparents and the heartbreak you felt at their end of life. Grandparents too, are precious. Much love to you Gabi ❤
I am very sorry for your loss, Gabi. Thank you for every word you said in this video, it is important that people understand what it means to be a content creator. All the best for you and your family!
You are a breath of fresh air. Thank God you are gorgeous and share wonderful tips to those of us that have grown older but love to hear and see what is current. You deliver it your message beautifully. Thank you
Oh my goodness, I am so sorry you lost your grandparents. I lost my parents a few years ago, (I'm 70) and it is so so hard. I miss them so much. I have a teensy channel, and yes, it's hard, and people don't like sponsorships. But we do what we have to do. And I love your eyebrows. I have learned so much about makeup from you. I am so happy to have found your channel. Hugs, Jeanie xx
I stopped scrawling the second I saw your face. These are challenging times , it is all about changes. At a collective level most of us are directed to change our perspectives on how we view the world around us but what part we play as individuals as well. I truly believe you are answering your calling. This channel is unique, real and VERY MUCH NEEDED. You speak from the heart and are touching on a subject THAT WE ALL CAN RELATE. A safe place to do so. You are connecting with many. That is your calling!! GOD BLESS YOU!! THANK YOU!❤❤❤
Thank you to everyone who supports me and my channel. It is borderline killing me to launch this video but I am challenging myself to do it in hopes that it helps someone not feel alone during tough times. If you are going through something and want to share it, please feel free to do so here in the comments section. Be Kind.
I'm so sorry for your loss. Sometimes it takes a while until the grief really sets in, but when it does, it hurts more than anything in the world. I lost my grandparents back in 2019, and that didn't really hit me until late 2020... My grandpa was basically like a father to me, so it's been really hard.
But long story short, you are really strong & you'll be fine. ❤️ They are with you and always will be.
❤️🙏
🤗
Thank you for being real and relatable. We as a society are so willing to tear down each other. People seem to do that more easily to those they view as strong, happy, and 'together'. The fact that you are able to show your vulnerability even to those that may not appreciate it, speaks volumes about you. It shows that you are real and makes me enjoy watching you even more! Keep your chin up and thank you for all of your amazing talent.
@@abracadrabra6718 Thank you for your message. I am so sorry that you lost someone that you love too. I am sending you a hug.
I just turned 60 and my self esteem was low when I went searching for help on how to update my hair and makeup. That's when I found you and I am so grateful for you persevering through the trolls. I can't imagine being in your position. Just know that your pure intentions are deeply felt by those of us who are open to your beautiful light. I now look forward to getting ready in the mornings with your videos as my company and you as my guide. Your Grandparents were so blessed to have you as their granddaughter! Thank you Gabby. Thank you for being such a beautiful, graceful, and elegant beacon to so many!
Jesus Christ can get us through anthing
Hi there beautiful! I am almost 71. A grandmother of 9! I want to tell you that hearing you speak about your grandparents and the wisdom your grandfather gave to you really blessed me. Thank you. I have been feeling afraid of aging. I look in the mirror and see someone with greying hair and wrinkles. It can be hard at times. But today I think how wonderful to be here. My husband and I share almost 37 years together. We like your grandparents share this wonderful journey. You my dear are so precious. Thank you for sharing your heart and your beautiful gift of helping people on life’s journey. God bless you.
I’m 72 and you could not have said this better! Gabi is beautiful!
I just came across your channel by happenstance. I have end stage liver disease so I'm usually up all night & sleep all day. I watched like 5 of your videos back to back because I just turned 50 & though I'm in pain & tired, I still want to look good for the sake of my children & grandchildren. Once I started watching this one however, I'm like bawling crying like 30 seconds in. What a beautiful legacy & life your grandparents story left you with. Your warmth & love for them shines so epically through your words! Please know that even though I don't know you personally, you'll be in my thoughts & prayer & thank you for your vulnerability, it's given me so much more than a "how to look younger" vid. 🙏💜
You put everything in perspective. I’m praying for you.
Sending good thoughts and comfort to you❤
❤❤
🙏❤️
Healing energies to you. I'm so sorry you are going through this.
My deepest sympathies on your loss of your grandparents. I KNOW FIRST HAND what you are feeling. I am 55 and lost my 97 year old grandmother my "Nanny" in March of 2022. She was my life and has been my whole world since I was born. I took care of her and was there with her till her last breath. I wish you peace and happy memories to help take away the tears that just appear for no reason or from a smell, or a song. I love your make up videos and I will love them even more knowing you are so down to earth. Grandparents are the best! I only hope to be half of what my nanny was to me to my future grandchildren. Peace & Love
I am a grandma.
I breaks my heart to see your pain. I wish I had the perfect words of comfort. Please know that your grandparents would give anything to wipe your tears way. They will always be with you through loving memories. Hugs from this Kentucky grandma.
Sadly the world is populated with more ignorant and mean people than with smart and lovable ones😩. I absolutely LOVE your channel and treasure your generosity. I am 76 year old and in the few months since I discovered your channel, I have learned so much about hair, it has literally changed my life and helped me feel and look younger. So, please, NEVER forget how many people you are helping and when those nasty comments bring you down, have a glass of “adult” beverage and put a smile on your face thinking about all of us you are helping😍
...this is the first time watching this...how?...I don't know. I'm 73 and have been battling vertigo for the last two weeks, so I'm not driving, at the moment...and scrolling my computer seems to be my current sport. I need to watch your videos on makeup for the elder...wait, more mature folk. My main concern is whether I'll be able to hear your hints above the slurping sounds of my very interesting face, drinking in the creams...I cried with you...I remember when my grandparents departed this life and I loved them so much. I'm old enough that my folks, friends, and recently...my beloved husband have also departed. Life can be so difficult at times. Remember, we're all here for a reason. We may never know, on this side, what it is, but each one of us matters more than anyone understands. As far as the people who say harsh things and judge. You'll see those folks racing around Walmart in those carts, nearly knocking us all on the floor as they grumble and curse the very air around them. They have way worse problems than the rest of us and you will learn the art of eye rolling and quiet prayers for the unlovables in this world. Our time here is incredibly brief and each day is a gift. You are gorgeous and delightful. Keep sharing your heart. Blessings to you, sweet girl. 🥰
Amen to that!! So beautifully said❤
I don't think that there are more nasty people - they're just louder and intrude themselves on others' notice without caring about their feelings.
@@freidafree810 you poor thing I’ve been suffering with vertigo since 27 Dec take care x
Thank you. My exact thoughts too.
You're just so lovely! I'm a farmer's wife in Australia, and as you'd imagine, most days I'm surrounded by blokes, dust and flies! I love watching your videos and occasionally putting a bit of makeup on and follow your tips to feel just a little bit more girly. So THANK YOU Gabi! X
Love this comment!

Hi from Queensland !
I’m a brand new viewer… and trying to imagine anyone criticizing your appearance is beyond baffling to me. You’re gorgeous inside & out! How could anyone be prettier?? I can’t even imagine.
I just came across this video. It broke my heart to see you hurting. Yeah, I would love to tell you to ignore those idiots but easier said than done. But I have found that people like that are like that across the board, always angry, always judgemental. But they don't look in the mirror and see their own jealousy and insecurities, nor do they have the guts to do anything about it. You, my dear, are a natural beauty. And I could only wish to have those ass kicking eyebrows! Just breathe, trust yourself, take a break if you need to, and remember, this channel belongs to YOU.
Grief is a tricky visitor, a smell, a song, a sound, anything can trigger the sense of loss and deep grief Allow it visit for a little bit and then it will leave. You are lucky you had such a close relationship with them, cherish the memories, they're all around you 💖
How well said!
What an incredible way to state the reality of grief. Thank you, @mmcs4973.
Firstly Gabi, please accept my sincere condolences on the loss of your dear Grandparents.
See you crying made me cry, as I could feel what a loving relationship you had. Thank you for being so honest in all the things you talked about.
I’m not sure I’ve ever commented here before. I only knew one Grandparent.
Both my husband and I were born to older parents, and so as we got older it was like looking after grandparents. All 4 of our parents passed away just before Covid. Mine 6 months apart, hubby’s just 3 months apart. It’s been devastating because we don’t have any close relatives, and no children. I’m 60 now, but when my in laws were sick, I landed in hospital and almost died. You are so wise when you say, one day you are young, and then you are old. I’m lucky to be 60 at this point. Facing death makes you realize the truly important things in life. Your children, husband, friends, parents, that’s all that matters. At 60, the one thing I’ve learned is that there are a lot of messed up people in this world. They do not feel good about themselves, so they criticize YOU! It’s not about you, it’s about them. They are going to make you feel bad about yourself. Knock you down a few rungs, in hopes that you’ll feel badly like they do.
Looking at someone so young and beautiful such as yourself can make you feel less than if you are not young and pretty, but that’s my problem if I feel that way. A comment that is mean, is not an “ opinion”, it’s just a mean comment that does NOT serve anyone in any way. You have a right to delete that. And I wish you would. I want to see positivity but also honesty from you, and in the comments. That’s called civil society, which seems to be disappearing.
You have a right to make a living Gabi.
Thank you for posting such quality content and for sharing tips for aging skin and hair. I appreciate you VERY much.
Tracey
Very well said.
I agree totally! This is my first time watching her videos and my heart breaks for how society today is so disrespectful to each other. When are we going to just love everyone and show kindness to each other? We should be encouraging each other and building each other up not tearing each other down. I hope she is able to take some time to get a support system. Everyone needs that. I think she is very beautiful and sweet. And being kind on the inside shows she has great integrity which this world needs more of today. I'll be praying for her
Hi Gabby, this is my first time watching your videos. I am so sorry for your loss watching your video and seeing you cry brought back my feelings for the loss of my parents during Covid. I lost my mom and dad a week apart. A double funeral was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do. Losing your love ones takes a very large part of you. The only thing that gets me through is my faith. Well, I don’t know where you are in your faith. but I will definitely be praying for you. Grieving is a very hard thing to go through but on a different note, I am a hairstylist, and I’ve been in the business 35 years . And in that 35 years I have been a divorced, single mom my son is 20 so my journey I feel very lonely. And every time I look at myself in the mirror, I see myself looking older. Your videos have helped me and inspired me to do my make up erent, but I find I’m very sensitive as I get older around my eyes. So if you have any advice for aging sensitive eyes, please keep me in mind thank you and keep up the awesome work you do for us girls in our different journeys, of life, Your videos are very Helpful you have brought hope and joy to my life with your tips and tricks. I love your videos don’t ever stop . Thank you
I recently lost my Mom. Nothing prepares you for watching the people who raised you; cared for you; loved you; get old and sick and die. It’s been the hardest time of my life. I’m sorry for your loss❤️
I lost my mom four months ago and the pain is still very bad. I lost my dad in 1970. He was only 39. But losing a mother - she gives you life, she teaches you everything she knows in hopes it will help you in your life ahead. She sacrifices everything for her children. It is very, very hard. I believe the only thing harder would be to lose my husband.
I'm so sorry for your loss and your pain, and for what Gabi is feeling.
@@carolwalsh2181
I read this quote once ( I don’t know who said it)-“I knew I was no longer a child when my mother died. I knew there would never again be anyone who would always put me before themselves.” That really hit home 😢
Oh Carol, I'm so sorry for your loss
@@elenadupuis5124 wow, this really got me. It’s so accurate. ❤
I lost my mom and dad, but the worst for me was losing my 20 year son. He was murdered. If we put life in perspective... those are the big things.
I am a new subscriber and I have NEVER left a comment on anyone's channel before.
I want to congratulate you on your ethics, and honesty. I understand sponsorships. As an interior designer, I have been asked so many times to promote products. If I don't like the company policies, the product, or if I like the product, I will speak about it with MY WORDS, not theirs.
I also related so much to you about your grandparents. I grew up with mine. I cried with you.I will be 70 soon, and I still miss them after 30 years.
I love your make-up and skin care tutorials for women my age. Looking natural with a warm glow is key. My mother is 87 and that is how she has always done her make-up. People think she is much younger.
You are a beautiful soul. Your gentleness and kindness shines through. Never change for anyone. If you ever need a shoulder...
My thirties were the hardest time in my life, both personally and professionally, and I was not a self-employed TH-cam content creator, trolled by anonymous non-subscribers, critiqued by ignorant strangers, or abused by brands. Thank you for sharing your experiences, and remember that miserable people want others to be miserable. They are toxic.
Yup, I always tell my kid, "hurting people, hurt people" (just like how you said "miserable people want others to be miserable") & it's so TRUE. You won't find a happy, well adjusted person trolling anyone, especially on TH-cam (as they are probably too busy with their wonderful life).
I just started watching you. I'm so impressed by your knowledge. You explain things so clearly & easily. You've made me want to try to look & feel better. You've lifted my spirits. It's so true that so many people "fake it till you make it" by trying to put a smile on their face. Meanwhile, they are feeling so bad & insecure about themselves. I know this because I live it everyday. You are a genuinely decent, lovely, beautiful woman. Both inside & outside. My heart is breaking for you losing your wonderful, loving grandparents. They will always be with you in spirit & in your heart. It's easy to say, screw all those trolls but I know it's hurtful to you. I'm so sorry there are so many horrible people in this world. Anyway, you're better than them in every way. Keep up the good work. Take care of you for a while. Your family loves you ❤ & that will be your strength.
Best always.
It is such a shame how this world has switched from what used to be a higher number of kind people who would never try to hurt someone, to people who get off on cruelty to others. I respect how this makes you feel, and admire you for not letting them succeed in tearing you down, to the point of leaving. A lot of it is shear jealousy. Keep up what you do Gabi! I am also a hairstylist of 36 years. You are fantastic at everything you do. So sorry for the loss of your grandparents. Keep on keeping on!!!
It does feel like the world is getting crueler doesn't it Shelia? Thank you for your kind message and for taking the time out of your day to watch and support.
It’s because the end of this world is coming
So sorry for your loss! I am sorry to hear that bullying comments from unhappy people are taking a toll on your mental health... You’re a kind person, so mean and negative comments affect you greatly! Remember most of us love you and your channel. Warm wishes for you and your family!😍🥰❤️💗💙😘😍💕
Ditto. I also know there are professional haters whose job it is to just make horrible comments on channels of all kinds, so they aren’t actually authentic but horrible nonetheless.
You are beautiful & provide great content ❤️
@@wendynicholls6231 Amen, Sister!🙏
Dear Gabi,
My sincere condolences for the loss of your elderly grandparents.
I commend you for expressing your heart-ache and feelings. publicly…the devastation of your loss. You’re sharing ‘the human experience’. Never, ever underestimate the possibilities of your potential Gabi. I see you as authentic and would bet I’m not alone on that assumption. ‘Be bold, be brave’, beautiful soul. 💕 🦌 🕊️ 💜 ❤️ 🖤 🕊️ 🌷
P.S.
I’d bet your grandfather called you so often, not because of boredom, but of adoration For You, Gabi. XOX 💕
Dearest Gabi
I pray you would have peace through this time of grief after loosing your grand parents.
You are so precious! You are helping God's women get through the bad hair days!
Know how high, how deep, how wide and how long God's love is for you! Make sure you take off a day a week and enjoy your family! Go and see the movie Jesus Revolution. You will not regret it! Life is a series of tests and trials. God wants you to turn to Him for help. When it comes down to it - it is all about your soul! Where will you spend eternity? It wasn't until I cried out to God for help that He answered me. Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and all His righteousness and all these other things will be given you!
God wants your heart.
I ❤️ you very much and will keep you in prayer for God to comfort you the way only He can! Frances (former hairdresser)
Very well said!
I'm 64 years old and have been following you for awhile. Your content has helped me and given me so many great tips for my hair and makeup... not to mention I truly enjoy them. Today your words were so truthful and heartfelt. As a mature woman who has lost many, I felt your grief and encourage you to feel it as well. You will never get over the loss, but you will reach a place of love and remembering. As for the haters, as women we are the worst... to each other and to ourselves. You are beautiful...inside and out. I personally thank you for all that you do on this channel. ❤
Dear Gabi l get so angry when people write mean comments about being sponsored…or say nasty things. We get beautiful people like you making content for us and we don’t pay you. Yes we might buy from a site but that is probably Pennie’s . I am new. I did hair for a long time and just found out today my back has suffered from doing hair ( bad stenosis..arthritis ) and I have been pretty miserable. I don’t want to get down about the pain. I have watched people who are paralyzed from accidents and they are cheerful and do utube to make some kind of living. I want to be positive. Keep getting sponsors Gabi. Some people are jealous and want to tear you down…please don’t let them. Take care of yourself sweet girl. ❤
I hear you. Was supposed to retire, sell house move south with my husband. He passed away right before we did all this. I end up going alone living by my sister. It’s hard, l’m 68 and don’t know where l’m going. Yeah l couldn’t do what you do. You are brave and honest and l for one appreciate it.
Not everyone gets old. My mum passed suddenly at age 42. Went for a walk to the hairdresser and that was it... I was just 20 back then. Life is tough when we lose people we love. Sending hugs your way xx
I'm sorry for your loss of your mom.
You're so right. Not everyone is blessed to get old.
I was 15 when I lost my mom, she was 42 as well. She struggled with mental issues and was trapped in a bad marriage with a man who only gave her $1 a day (it was the 80s and cigarettes cost a dollar back then). Anyway, she committed suicide when she purposely knelt in front of an AM Track train. It’s still painful to even think about.
@Falcon Eddie I'm deeply sorry for your loss. I lost my husband at the age of 43 to suicide.
It is much different than a traditional death. I too, am pained to think about it.
God bless you.
I’m so sorry to hear that. Stay strong everyone ❤
I RARELY write comments on youtube; perhaps 3 my whole life! I LOVE your channel, you are beautiful (and I can tell you're young ;), professional and I trust your overview of the products you present. I've bought a few different things at your recommendation and adore them. As a 50 year old high school teacher, I'm always shocked at how we can speak to each other over social media; not having to look the person in the eye and not allowing that person to rebuttal or defend themselves. Your insights to this career choice is truly eye opening; I lifted you up in prayer today.
Wow Katherine thank you so much for taking he time to leave me a message with so much insight. I am really thankful to have people like you on this channel. Being a content creator is a relatively new career and it is amazing in many ways but also incredible hard in others. I don't think anyone talks about it but the mental health struggles that come with it can be all consuming. I'm sending you a virtual hug.
I'm so sorry for your loss. The way you present yourself and your content is a lovely testament to your grandparents. You are a beautiful young woman and the fact that you are taking the time and interest to help us aging women look and feel good about ourselves speaks of the person you are. So glad I found you!
You mentioned that your husband is an engineer, I am too. I’ll try to reassure you with the following. In my professional office job of 15+ years, I’ve experienced so much bombardment of criticism, snide attitudes, hurtful feedback, etc. The nastiness is EVERYWHERE.
I hope you understand my intention here, feel comforted that your suffering is not exclusive to your type of work, we’re all battling through the jungle of life, have heart!
I think you are beautiful. I love watching your videos. I am 58 and I wish I kept myself because I was extra too. People are horrible, definitely delete nasty comments and when you delete them consider detaching from them. I use the 5 second rule I learnt from Mel Robbins, she uses it for taking action and not procrastinate but I use it for when I remember something nasty someone did or said to me. when something pops in my head that is bad I repeat counting backwards from 5 to 1 until it is clear from my mind. the more I use this technique the quicker it works. It also keeps me conscious and in the now. I hope this helps you somehow. I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my grandparents when I was really young so very few memories but I lost my dear parents in 2017 with 4 months apart and I am still devastated and miss them so much everyday. Sending you much love and support from the other side of the camera:)
I had a son who was 20 and never got older. Your grandpa gave you really really good advice.😢
I'm very sorry for the loss of your beloved son. Twenty is far too young to leave this earth. 💔😟🙏🏻
Hugs from Tasmania 😔🙏♥️♥️♥️
And memories. Do not let people bother you. Some people are green eyed monsters. You do you. You ate beautiful band talented.
Hugs ❤ I lost my 36 year old son to covid in 2020. Some days are easier than others.
Remember that during the first part of your video you talked about really matters the most in life, which is the love between families and friends and people's ❤️ hearts and being with the ones you love. The older I get the more I realize that love of God, others and self supports everything else we do! #1. You are doing alright sister!
🙏 🙏 🙏 Amen
I am so sorry for the loss of your grandparents. At 73 I have lost family and friends and it's heartbreaking. I do love what your grandfather said and I will try to remember that. Gabi, you are one of my favourites and I respect what you say and show us. I now realise so many don't vet a product and then it becomes a "fail" later. That is so frustrating to me--especially after I've purchased it. Please take a deep breath, know that you are very. much appreciated by most and keep going.
Hi! I’ve been watching (and rewatching) your videos about a month. You are awesome! You have literally changed my look. I’ve been getting so many compliments. I’m turning 60 at the end of the year. I’ve been regretting seeing that Birthday. Thanks to you I am no longer regretting turning 60! You have given me the confidence, technique and the correct makeup for me to use. So I want to thank you! There are more people that appreciate you.
I recently found your channel. I am 65 years old and appreciate your advice as a makeup expert on how to apply makeup on mature skin. I appreciate help from anyone.
I really appreciate your love you still have for your grandparents. Those memories and feelings of love are so very special. When I see a negative comment on any site, I feel sorry for the person. Imagine what they are going through to write such negative words? It saddens me to know it’s hard for these people to see the positiveness in anything. They are so scared to put themselves out there to do videos.
Keep going, you have so much to offer. ❤😊
Your beauty is what brought me to your channel. My mother owned a beauty salon on cosmetic company for 50 years. Your content is spot on! The haters can just move on. It's easy to make nasty comments behind a keyboard. Your beauty, sincerity and confidence are what I enjoy! You continue to be yourself and don't apologize for your natural beauty!!! Much peace & love!!!
I TRULYTHINK SOME OF THOSE HATERS ARE JEALOUS BEAUSE SHE IS A GOREGOUS LADY. SHE DOESNT EVEN LOOK 36. I WOULD HAVE GUESSED LATE 20S OR 30.
You are so blessed to have such a connection with your grandparents. Many grandchildren don’t have special grandparents. Thank God for the love you received from them.
Girl, I am almost ten minutes in while starting to write this, and I am crying so much. My heart aches for you because I know how hard it is to lose a grandparent, and all growing up, you had the biggest heart! I wish there was a way to just wipe all the pain away, but if you just take the hits as they come and let the waves of emotion wash over you even through the tears, those memories bring you closer to them and eventually bring you peace so you can smile when you think about them. I know that's wordy, but it's true. My grampa passed in October, and I still find myself crying and wishing he would call and bother me again. I'd give anything to stay on a call with him for an hour trying to figure out how to get his music on his ipod, but then I also find comfort from knowing he's no longer in pain. I know this type of content isn't what you're normally comfortable with, but I'm grateful you were brave enough to do it. It wasn't the way I planned to spend my morning, but I'm glad I got the opportunity to! I really want to re-connect in the near future. We need to get the trio back together because life is hard, and we need to support the people we love. You and your arched brows are absolutely beautiful!! You're not alone either I hope you know that! ❤️💕
Tiffani thank you so much for taking the time to leave that comment and for spending the morning with me. It's the little things isn't it? I would do anything now to feel annoyed at him for calling me 5 times in a row when I was in the middle of doing a wedding party. And then half the time when I picked up, he was half out of frame on the Ipad because he didn't know how to centre himself on the screen. HAHAHA! I know one day I will think about all of this and it will make me feel happy. But right now it just makes me feel tremendous sadness. One foot at a time right? You can fast forward through grief.
Thanks!
You are beautiful! I love your heart, honest, and morals. Just know the haters are the ones that are jealous of not only your outward beauty, but your internal beauty. I just found you today when I searched how to transition to my natural gray hair. I will continue to follow you as I love your content.
I also want to give you my condolences about your grandparents. Children's relationships with Grandparents are some of the most important in the world. Hang onto all your memories with them. Best, Susan
Gabi, I just finished watching this video and wanted to tell you first off that I think you are absolutely beautiful. And how your platform on TH-cam changed my hair and my life. I am almost 70 and started losing my hair, when I started searching for videos and found you. I knew I wasn't alone and you didn't have to be 70 to have thinning hair. I bought some of the hair tools and products you recommended (Tymo Hot Air Brush) by the way I had purchased a hot air brush in the past but didn't know how to use it correctly till I saw your video. My husband of 32 years said this was the best my hair has looked in all those years. So thank you for all of your help and advice in making me feel sooo much better about myself.
I bought it and love it as well! 😊
Thank you for sharing everything that you do, for us, Gabi. I can tell you from the experience I had a few yrs ago of my husband dying traumatically after an outpatient procedure gone wrong to my son taking his own life last year, that life is not always how we expect it to be. And we learn from these terribly hard things to give ourselves grace. When no one else is there, you have to love yourself enough to take care of you every day, every minute, every breath, whatever that means for you. And eventually you find a peace in the eye of the storm, and you know you will be ok.
Be ok, girl, take care of you. You have to put on your own oxygen mask before you help anyone else❤
I'm so sorry for the losses of your dear husband and son! You must be strong to cope with that kind of grief. 💔😟🙏🏻
I am so sorry for your losses and heartache, Kathy.
Wishing you peace, love and strength x
It's sad that people can't just "stay in their lane". As a recovering people pleaser, I have struggled with being OK with just being me. I love Brene Brown's talk about how to stop giving your power away to critics. Stay strong and keep embracing YOUR glam Gabi!
I'm a new subscriber, and I have loved watching your videos. I'm so very sorry for your loss. I can't imagine how hard it would be to lose grandparents who feel like second-parents. My grandparents/my husbands grandparents were not people we knew well, so I don't have that experience at all. But I hope that, with time, your memories become beautiful and wonderful and less sad as you reflect on how they influenced your future, your children's future, and your outlook on life. A blessing, but so hard when loss occurs.
Also, sponsor away! The people who have concerns with ethically reviewed sponsors really aren't business minded and would never understand the importance of sponsorship in survival. And we are the same age, and I think you look super natural and beautiful. As a Midwest American, people in this area think that when you are 37 you should look like, 50! They stop taking care of themselves, on average, at 25, so they don't get a 37 year old who is vibrant and lovely. You do you! And carry on. You are providing a super great service to those of us in the 'mid years'. I feel like there is content for those under 30 and those over 50, but the 30-50 year old who want to look professional, lovely, and pretty is missing. Thanks for representing that.
My mother always said that women who criticize you are jealous. Agreed. Don't listen to them.
What an amazing comment to read today. Thank you so so much for taking the time to leave this. It means so much to me.
Gabi you are a very beautiful lady inside and out. People that say negative things about you are really jealous of how beautiful you are and the fact that you have a great channel and you seem to have a great home life with children and successful husband. I learned along time ago when I was in my 30’s that women are very vicious at times especially when they feel threatened by someone else’s beauty when in reality women should be building other women up instead of tearing them down due to their own insecurities. The bottom line is you are giving us the best beauty advice for free. Free to us that is but it’s your time that you are using to give us all these tutorials. I personally am very grateful to you and respect you and your opinions. I have learned a lot from you and even talk about you to other people in my life for instance my hairdresser just last week. I am 58 years old and am struggling with some of the aging issues. I was a pretty woman just a few years ago but when my parents passed away It took a real toll on me. After about 5 yrs I’m finally learning how to live with them gone and wanting to try and get atleast a part of the old me back. That’s how I found your channel and was instantly impressed with you and your advice on aging and hair and makeup techniques. So I just want to say Thank you so much for everything you do and always remember there are way more people here that appreciate you than the ones that are jealous. They just need to move on to someone else’s channel that they like if that’s even a remote reality. Hang in the beautiful and hope you have a fantastic day!♥️😊🙋🏻♀️
Gabi, you are a brave woman with an abundance of integrity. The naysayers are tremendous teachers, nothing more. They help you understand why compassion and empathy is crucial and judgement is useless and unproductive. Your content is valuable and well received. Consider yourself, as a thirty something woman to be blessed. The social media challenges will never go away but your response can evolve with time. You truly are an amazing woman!
I'm so sorry for your loss and pain. This is a very tough time. Thank you for being honest and vulnerable. I will keep you in my prayers.
You are a gorgeous soul! Your videos have helped me feel confident about my extremely thin hair that doesn't seem to grow. Most content creators show up here with long luscious manes pushing the latest lip gloss as the solution to all your troubles. But you are honest and caring and get real, sharing your professional and personal experience in benefit of your viewers. I truly appreciate you and your advice. I'm a text translator and also work alone from home all day, you are great company to me and make me feel in touch with real beauty trends, like a friend at school! "Those who mind, don't matter, and those who matter, don't mind," said the great Dr. Seuss. Sending you big hugs with lots of love!
THEY ARE JEALOUS BECAUSE SHE IS HOT. EVEN HER BODY IS NICE.
I love that Dr Seuss quote too - thanks for the reminder😍
Ppl are cruel. I love all your tips and tutorials. I’m 51 and have never really been good at the makeup game. I’m sorry for your loss. You are absolutely gorgeous and I thank u for sharing your knowledge with us. ❤❤
Look up the word gaslighting...
Comments lies you're being gaslight then doing it to yourself. Just be yourself...this is the time I've discovered your knowledge. You're intelligent and talented.
Not me crying before 10am! The Grandparent loss is a hard one that even with time always hurts. Love your grandpa's outlook on one bad yr for a lifetime of good ones. Love these vulnerable videos ❤️
Thanks Summer. I am sorry for starting your morning with tears but sometimes we all just need a solid cry right! I am happy that it was only a couple of challenging years for a whole lifetime of happiness. I hope that I am so lucky.
❤️
I loved his outlook as well.
So sorry for your Loss. My sincere Condolences. Prayers and BLESSINGS.
How caring and warm you are as you speak you share with a greatful heart thank you it is healing to cry a share and we you audience care that you suffer from Adelaide South Australia thanks
So sorry for your loss.. heartbreaking to see you cry. As far as the horrible comments that you are reading on your channel, most people do not feel that way. You are doing such a wonderful job on your content in which I learn so much even at 55. I Thank you for that. You are very genuine and authentic. Don’t change. Love from BC. Q🇨🇦🥰
I know this video is 2 months old but I pray you see this YOU ARE A STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL WOMAN!!!! Not only outside but inside as well!! Miserable people write miserable things. Lots of love from me to you❤❤❤❤
🥰 Hi, I’m so sorry about what happened with your grandparents. They were so blessed to have such a loving granddaughter.
I’m 73, I just watched a video of you doing the makeup of an older woman, she looked gorgeous.
I think that it’s good that you shared what is going on in your life-sometimes we need to get things out and cry, and hopefully you will receive a lot of genuine encouragement.
I liked hearing about how ethical you are with sponsors. I only follow a handful of people, in all different areas-but they are all ethical and genuine.
I will be following you. Also about the sponsors pushing people to lie and say things prematurely about their products-I didn’t know how bad it was-I’m glad that you shared that, it’s a burden. You need sponsors that you believe in.
I hope that as you continue to heal from the deeply emotional things that have happened-I hope that you will get back some or a lot of your confidence and be able to distance yourself emotionally from these abusive, hateful people.
It truly seems that there are more boldly hateful people than ever before. They have a problem.
God bless you, your family, and your channel.
❤️ Love and prayers 🙏
Not a regular here but you popped up today.Divune intervention?
I'm nearly 65 and my father recently passed away with a combination of struggles both your dear grandparents.
We are never ready for their passing no matter our age or relationships we have with them.
I cried along with you even before you bravely shared your heart.
Know that you helped me release more of my grief but also allowed me to feel more of the love in my heart and gratitude for the love we all share for each other as a collective.
Sending you and your family heartfelt condolences and cherish the memories as you travel your journey with your family .
THANK you for your video and bless you.
I'm in my sixties and your genuine love for your Grandparents is so touching💕. This is part of life. The tough part.. God bless you and your family. Memories of them will always be a part of you. They helped to mold you into the wonderful person you are💕. Family and love are so important. I cried when I saw this video. I loved my Grandma. She passed when I was 27 years old. Her memory lives inside if me!! She was the only Grandparent I remember! Their gift to you was Love!
You were so blessed to have such wonderful grandparents who lived long lives. I love your grandfather's sayings!!! You're going through a rough patch but it will get easier. Hang in there girl.
I know! I am so lucky to have had them for as long as I did. I will always think about all the words of wisdom they gave me and how much they made me feel loved. What a tremendous gift I was given.
I am so sorry for the loss of your Grandparents. I cried as I watched you talk about them. It is a different kind of loss when it's someone that you share so many happy memories with from your life. I lost my Dad 6 years ago this June and my Mom passes this past December. I feel like this special part of my life has slipped away forever. I can never go home again because it's gone. Mom isn't cooking in the kitchen and Dad isn't building a fire. I don't smell homemade bread anymore or car grease on my Dad as he fiddled with the cars in the garage. It's a weird feeling. It's okay to cry. It will sneak up on you when you least expect it. You now have two guardian angels watching over you. I did laugh at the part when you talked about your Grandpa calling you. My Dad would call me at 5 a.m. on a Saturday when it was 8 a.m. where he lived. I would say Dad, it's 5 a.m. and he would laugh and say oh yea. Then he would keep talking about why he called. I really miss those calls now.
On the topic of people making you feel bad. Don't give them the power. You have a kind heart and have worked hard to achieve your success. Then there is the fact that you are an absolutely stunning women. These people are haters. Some need to make others feel bad in order to make themselves feel better about their own bad decisions.
I can see that there are so many people out here that love you.
Have a wonderful day!
You DO NOT have to let people be unkind to you because you think they have a right to their "opinion". Opinions are like ..., everyone has one. They serve the purpose in the bathroom, not online. No one has the right to be unkind. They choose to be unkind about how they share their opinion which reflects more on them and how they feel about themselves. It has nothing to do with you. You are beautiful inside and out and I am so thankful for what you do, you have no idea how helpful it is. And your grandparents are living in the light and peace of the love and understanding you have for them in your heart. Thanks for sharing them with us.
You share beauty and wisdom so often. Thank you for sharing pain and memories, too. And so much love. It really shines through.
Your grandparents must have been wonderful. Grief is the price we pay for love, Elizabeth II said, and it's so true.
Hugs to you and your family.
And considering social media: it's great and helpful and informative - and it's a paradise for mean people. Thank you for your honesty, and I'm certain you'll get stronger again and these comments won't affect you.
Gosh that really hit home. "Grief is the price we pay for love." Love is such a profound and incredible thing that I would take it all in order to continue to get the kind of love I have been lucky enough to receive in my life. I think you're also right about it not affecting me as I get stronger. I am just a little fragile at the moment so things hit harder. I am getting there though. Thank you for taking the time to leave me such an insightful and helpful comment.
I think it was a blessing that your grandparents passed so close together - neither of them had to do without the other for very long. When I get sad and lonely for loved ones I've lost, I say a prayer for them. It's good for me and for them. It really seems to help. I hope this tip can help you, too. Rest assured, your video is exactly the message I needed to hear. So the video that was so difficult for you to post is, in fact, a blessing in this world. I applaud both your courage and your message. In the words of an old Irish prayer, "May the Good Lord keep you in the palm of his hand."
Thank goodness your grandfather went quickly and your grandmother soon after. My parents were married at 16 and my dad passed when they were 73. My mom started praying that day to join him but lived almost 14 years longer. She also had dementia and was nonverbal and non mobile the last three years. It broke my heart daily to know she just wanted to be with her love. It’s so hard to watch especially when you can’t do anything to help.
Gosh that is the most heartbreaking thing EVER. I agree that it was the best case scenario for them because after he passed, she only had to live with that grief for a few short months. Talking to her during those months were horrible though. I will never forget her pain and the sadness that the end of life can bring.

I have heard from others about how cruel some of the comments can be. I have not had that experience - but then I am not a content creator. I started watching these kind of videos during COVID and found them very helpful - especially the skin care ones. I just found your videos recently and am so glad I did. I am 74 and especially enjoy your videos for mature women. I wish there was a way you could block a person's future comment (by name) if they were nasty. I am sorry to hear about your loss but I am sure your dedication to your grans added a lot of joy and comfort to their lives. God Bless🙏
Thank you for your courage to share so honestly from the heart. As a retired professor we were subjected to student evils and there was always a few that were hurtful. I’m so sorry you have lost your wonderful grandparents and then endured this uncalled for pain. But you are strong and resilient and wise and courageous to face the pain and loss head on. I have learned so much from you and so appreciate you sharing your knowledge and expertise with viewers. You’re in my prayers.
Thank you for the kind words. It means a lot to me.
Oh Gabi , the pain of grief is something we all experience. It's so awful but you are not alone. Although no words can take away the sorrow that you bare. May it be comforting to you to know that all ur followers care. God be with you and your family...
You are stunning even without make up. I recently started watching your channel and noticed that you do not make others or yourself look unrecognizable. You enhance their natural beauty, allowing their confidence and happiness to shine through. Your openess about your grandparents was heartwarming, especially to someone like me, whose grandparents died before I even understood what grandparents were. Thank you for all you do!! 🥰
It's so hard losing the people closest to us. I lost my Mom in 2010 and my Dad in 2017, and my life has never been the same. You're stunningly beautiful, intelligent and youre a wonderful person. You are carrying out a legacy for your family. Just remember how proud they are of you! I'm so thankful for you and your over 50 tips. I've been sick and haven't worn makeup in a long time and you help so much! Your subscribers love you!! ❤️💋
I totally understand! You are amazing, and people are cruel. You have to read the most beautiful comments and try to ignore the bad ones! We are here for you. Hugs, Keep the faith!
I was crying with you Gabi, you are beautiful inside and out, thank you for your work on TH-cam. Hugs from Australia
So sorry for your loss. What a blessing to have such wonderful memories as comfort.
Thank you for your honesty Gabi. I am so sorry for your loss. I am have just had my 70th birthday and try not to dwell on the future but enjoy and appreciate the present as much as I can. Always though as we age we are aware at some level of what our future might be. I live in hope and choose to trust my faith and belief in God whenever other thoughts intrude. I know that none of us are promised a perfect ending in this world but my hope is in the hereafter. I hope your grandparents had faith and that you do also. It has helped me through so many tough times in my life. You are BEAUTIFUL by the way. I was very lucky to look very young at your age just as you do and throughout my life until hitting 60. I hope you keep on doing your videos. You are very much appreciated.
So sorry to hear about your grandparents. How fortunate you are to have such a wonderful, attentive and loving family. Try to see yourself through their eyes. Haters are such sad people. Pity them and let them go on their way. Put your hand to your heart and ask yourself if you love that part of you they are criticizing. If the answer is yes, then let them go. You are beautiful inside and out. Luminous. When you are the light, the darkness will try to creep in. Keep shining and they will have no choice but to be illuminated by you or move on. Lots of love.
My life ended 2 years ago when my husband died of COVID. Believe me, you will go through lots of emotions when you lose someone. Emotions I could not control, no matter how hard I tried. Please take it easy on yourself and let the wound begin to heal even though it may never stop being painful. Remember the good times when you can and cry when you need to.
I appreciate what you do and how you help others with your posts. You provide a useful service. There will always be haters but that is a reflection on them, not you. Have a blessed day.❤
I'm so sorry for your loss.
I appreciate your authenticity today. You give tips for women who want to be as beautiful as they are by enhancing their face with the talents you have worked hard to learn. People come in and judge you, your model choices and your being young, your botox, your eyebrows. just whatever they can find to instill negativity into your vibe, these people do not like themselves, sadly thesenpeople are treating you how they feel about themselves, and no amount of tips you are sharing are going to help them, at the end of the day we all know that beauty abounds inside out. Your sharing about your grandparents touched me, reminded me of family I have loved and lost, I cried, I needed that, and your a beautiful soul!! Be Blessed, thank you. Best Piper Coleman
How beautiful you are to show your vulnerability. It will help some to realize that you are human too, not just a beauty queen. There will always be the mean people, insecure in themselves, that attack others to make themselves feel important. I am sorry that you have to experience that. It happens to teachers a lot. Continue to be the model in classy behavior as well as glamour. I am sorry about your grandparents. Both my grandparents and my parents have passed. I am glad for the good times you had with yours, and sad for the lack for time. Enjoy who is left, encouraging their stories for you to remember for a lifetime. Peace and kindness to you
I’m proud of you for challenging yourself to post this even though it’s been super hard. Your grandpa sounded soooooooooo full of wisdom! It’s so hard seeing grandparents and loved ones pass and go through that journey of life. It’s incredibly tough. I feel happy for you to have had those memories and special bond with your grandparents. I highly suggest looking into personal therapy if you’re not already going…. Look into the different types of therapy, like somatic and edmr and psychodynamic and dbt .. cbt is the average but I think there are better! Those specializing in IFS are my favorite!!!!! Many can feel shame when thinking of therapy, but it’s just a way to explore yourself deeper with someone neutral and educated, an expert! Also it’s important to find someone you fit well with, it isn’t like just finding one will be your best fit automatically. Knowing if you want a straightforward type that challenges you or calls you out OR one that listens patiently and is more of a presence and understanding and let’s YOU lead, knowing what’s best for you will help loads and asking what type they are during the interview 15 minutes will help you find a good fit. You sharing is important for yourself and others too. Keep going. Day by day, hour by hour if need be. Life is beautiful and messy and tough and exciting and hard and wonderful…. But at times we need more support, more than just friends and family. Also I wanna mention that those comments that stick and trigger, there’s some part within that’s rooted deeply with insecurity and fear, maybe fear of not being seen and understood (basic natural human need!) or an insecure of being misinterpreted.. and this can trigger deep wounds from childhood, etc. When those comments stick, it’s sticking for a reason. There’s an inner part struggling with what was said and that inner part has a truth and needs to be heard and validated. IFS (internal family systems) is ALL about recognizing internal parts and helping them and seeing them… this process can help change how we react subconsciously too. So this deep inner work (that therapy just assists with - like a dentist assisting with teeth health) helps us unlock our deeper selves understand ourself better and find ways to help ourselves, which makes us a better person and parent and partner ❤❤❤
I’m so sorry for your loss, so terribly hard. May the Lord bring your heart peace as you remember your sweet grandparents. I still miss my Grammie, she passed from Alzheimer’s and was my best friend my entire life. Bless you sweet girl and thank you for all you do, I so enjoy watching, and thank you for offering advice to us mature ladies ❤
Well said, Karen.
So very sorry for your loss. I know it wasn't recently but that doesn't change anything. My grandparents were precious to me, like yours were to you and their passing, though they were old, was still very hard. They passed decades ago now, but I miss them still. I will be praying for your pain and peace of mind. I wanted to tell you ignore the rude ones but you are doing the best you can. I respect and appreciate your willingness to learn. Hang in there, learninng to live without our loved ones that pass isn't easy but does come with time. Take care of you, too. Not just everyone else. :)
Thank you for a Wonderful Eye Opening Video!
I am so grateful to TH-cam for so many many wonderful, creative and super talented people like you (influencers) who have made my life so much better just by watching you and them!
I know I speak for hundreds, (probably thousands during Covid) of us, who sometimes remain silent and don’t let you guys know how much you are appreciated, loved, admired, and respected… we are sooo very grateful for your videos and their content!
To you and all of you hard working TH-cam people who can write, produce and star in your own Show….You guys are incredible! Honestly, how many people can remain interesting and relevant week after week, even year after year?! That’s amazing.
We look forward to seeing your beautiful faces and charming personalities and wonderful content. I have learned so much about practically everything because of awesome people like you that bring so much knowledge into my life.
And we certainly hope that the “bullies on the block” don’t scare you away…. and there always are bullies of some kind or another, …because then they win ! And WE lose! In reality, there are a handful of them and hundreds of us that count on you each week!
So please ignore them because we need more “good” in our lives instead of bad.
Please remember this when you see a negative comment… and think of music, and how we each have different tastes in songs… and just imagine that person doesn’t like the same music you do… so without judgment just ask them to “change the channel”.😂
Sorry for your terrible loss!❤
Brilliantly put 🙏❤️
Gabi, praying for God's peace to comfort you. May the memory of your loved ones be eternal. You're a very gifted young woman.
I cried so much, even though I don’t know you personally I relate to your story so much, I myself moved to Canada and my grandparents live in other country and I lost my most beloved grandpa during Covid, of course I wasn’t allowed to go to a funeral or say goodbye as he was at the hospital when he died. I still grieve now 2 years later and watching this video made me cry out loud 😢 Wishing you strength ❤ Sending you love from another fellow Canadian
After your sorrow, take comfort in the good, good life they led!!! As the late, great Queen Elizabeth said, "Grief is the price we pay for love!" God bless you in your emotional healing and be replaced with only happy memories!!!
Thank you so much for your video. First of all, you are correct, it is difficult to bear your soul. We are supposed to share both our highs and lows with others so that we can not only relate to those who have been through the same thing, but also allow those who haven't gone through anything like this to see that it is terribly sad, but we get through it. When we don't show emotion or hold our emotions inside, is when we get into trouble. Showing this emotion shows how much you cared. This honors your grandparents. At some point you might think of something special to honor them in some way, like a donation to their favorite charity in their memory. Anyway, again, thank you for sharing your most vulnerable time.
I am so appreciative of your honesty!! I totally understand how hard all of those comments much be! I have been in that space where I’ve heard 100 great comments, but the one not so bad comment is all is focus on. And that’s not even on a platform, but just real life. I know you already know those people that say nasty comments are unhappy themselves … hurting people hurt people. I watch you because you’re a bad ass at what you do and I am drawn to your beauty, sass and style. Not to mention I’ve struggled with hair loss. I am one of those more mature women that follow you - I’m 57 and I learn so much from your channel. I wish I could erase your brain from those thoughts i know I’m rambling. Just wanted to let you know that I support and respect you. Please keep being you! Do you! I love your eyebrows! Damn haters.
You had me crying with you 😢so sorry for your losses. Keep up the good work, your videos are amazing and so are you!
I have so much to say, I don’t know where to start.😢 it breaks my heart to hear your sadness and how complete strangers have hurt you. WE LOVE YOU the exact way God created you. You are gorgeous, your eyebrows are gorgeous! Stop trying to change their appearance. You are REAL. That’s why we love you. Your so intelligent and you do so much homework to help us. I am more grateful than words can express for all you’ve done for us and all I’ve learned from you. Thank you for ALL your hard work and time you spend to help us. Your beautiful INSIDE and OUT. I loved this raw, honest video of what your going. You have helped me so much. I’m going through some loneliness and deeply hurting. Please consider counseling. Please. If you decide to take a break, PROMISE you’ll come back. We need and love you so much. My heart breaks for you, losing the love of your grandpa and the closeness you had with both of them. I will be praying for you constantly!!!! The tattoo is spectacular!!!!! Your a sensitive, caring, giving, honest, authentic and loving person. You’ll NEVER be able to please everyone!!! Never!
Thank you for sharing your heart and openness.
WE LOVE YOU!❤
Aww what a beautiful kind comment ❤ you are so sweet to write this
Well said 👏
Well said. Ditto!!!
I have learned so much from your videos. I’m turning 60 this year in September and I do not feel beautiful now. I care for my Father who I’ve moved into my home after losing my Mom during Covid. Daddy has stage 4 kidney disease and he is a full time job. A short year ago I was so confident, happy, out spoken and felt I had many friends only to realize after closing my store to care for Daddy my friends are gone, my confidence is gone and I’ve aged 20 years in the past 1. My husband recently had a business trip and included me on the tale end to give me a much needed break. After months of excitement planning I was off to Rome alone to meet him. I have never been afraid to do anything or try something new. Long story short I was mugged my first day and had a major concussion and some pretty serious injuries. It’s been a month, my bruising has almost all healed but I’m not sure I will ever be the same. Not to mention my entire vacation was ruined, I can barely remember any of it, but I was in a country where I didn’t speak the language held at a hospital for over nine hours. No way to contact anyone once my phone died, which was pretty quick considering I arrived at 7:30 pm and didn’t get out until 5am. I have so many stories while in the hospital ER, that I wasn’t able to leave on my own free will was one of them. I digress, once I did finally did get released, they never stitched my head up and that was the only reason I agreed to go. I’m pointed in the wrong direction twice before I find an exit. I do not have my hotels name, it’s in my phone. I can’t call a cab, my phone is dead. After what seemed like forever (I’m certain it wasn’t) I was approached by a very large young man who spoke very little English. He was able to charge my phone to find my hotel, put me in a cab and off I went. I hope to be able to thank him one day. My husband arrived the following day and I slept in a very expensive hotel bed for for more days and night. Back home a month now I’m pretty certain I will never be the same. I believe Rome owes me a do over. That was a lot of money to pay just to sleep in another bed. I’m Bach home caring for Daddy, I’m so sad, hurt and there is know one to blame. You are so young and beautiful, please keep doing what you’re so passionate about and the haters can kiss your beautiful ass! I can assure you they are only jealous of you stature, commitment and beauty. Your a breath of fresh air and I love your videos. Stay true to you and the others can F. OFF
Ugh! This is so upsetting! I think the problem content maker have is that people feel safe making nasty comments. I taught school for 33 years. Parents could be really cruel in notes or emails, even on the phone. However, those same parents couldn’t bring themselves to say the same thing to my face. I could never do what you do because that is so hard to deal with. I’m so sorry about your grandparents. I think grief comes and goes in waves. And sometimes the pain will hit you out of nowhere. Thank you for sharing your heart.
I am in awe of your honesty and bravery. You, and women in general, have so many demands on them. Expressing your emotions is healthy and so is saying, "No." I love your channel and look forward to your videos!
Saying no is healthy....let's say that louder for the people in the back. I have SUCH a hard time with this.
Thank you for hanging in there! You are beautiful and a breath of fresh air. There are people who think stepping on someone else makes them bigger, when in reality, they truly show how small they are. I just started watching you and hope you’re around for a long time. Your honesty and morals are greatly appreciated.
Gabi (also my granddaughters name) I love you I love you I love you I do! You are such a beautiful soul and beautiful woman. You don’t have to explain yourself to anyone but the fact you did shows that you DO genuinely care about your followers. I don’t think you realize how loved and respected you are. We are so sincerely sorry for your loss Gabi and prayers are being sent to you. May the Lord wrap his arms around you and keep giving you strength and peace. You are wonderful!
Dearest Gabi ❤
You are so beautiful inside & out & when I think of the nasty people in this world all I can think of is they have wrecked my day in 5 or 10 min…. but then I think of their family who have to put up with them all day…& that thought takes it off me to feeling so sorry for their family & even praying for the family & how that person is totally wrecking their lives🙏‼️
my youngest child is 38
& I’d be so proud to have you as my daughter‼️you’ve created an amazing business,with a love to help us all, always show up bubbly & beautiful even when you don’t feel that way & to invite us into your pain of losing your Grandparents I’m so sad for you… But even love you more for letting more of you into our hearts ❣️❣️
Thank you for this message Lainey. It means a lot. Truly 💕
Love this beautiful post, Lainey. Truth!
Oh my pretty girl 😮💨 Remember we are only here for a short ride to love, to share and to learn. Your a wonderful person who gives so much know that you are the fruit of your grandparents and through you their legacy goes on. As much as it hurts you because you miss them give thanks that they are together loving and supporting you from the otherside of the vail. Huge Hug.
I understand your pain all too well. It’s earth-shattering when you lose someone, and life as you’ve always known it is forever changed. I hope you know there are more of us who appreciate you than not. You’re beautiful inside and out, and I don’t understand how people could say a mean word about you. Thank you for doing what you do, keep your chin up, you’re stronger than you think. ❤
I’m so very sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you. 🙏🏻❤️
Thanks so much for sharing this with us. I’m 51 and lost my grandparents when I was in my 20’s and I still miss them, but am grateful for every memory of them. Please don’t let mean comments stick to your heart. You’re wonderful and they don’t deserve a place there! Praying for you💕
Gabi, I just wanted to thank you for this genuine video. You are not only a stunning young women on the outside but you are just as beautiful on the inside. Remember your human and we all go throw similiar things in life. Some more than others. Continue doing what you do as beleive me you are helping others. I know we can't always shut out the noise, but don't let that effect you. Be as confident as you should. I am so sorry that your feeling all these things, but you are not alone and you will get through it. You seem like a very strong and very intellegent women. There will always be haters, that means your doing something right. keep being You!
Thank you so much for the kind words. It is important to remember that we are all human and we have more in common than we think! I appreciate this!
I am a grandmother and I can tell you that I am impressed how much you reached out to your grandparents. So many kids grow up and only think of their new life and leave their grandparents behind…and lonely. You did not do that; you still embraced them and as a grandparent, I know that meant so much to them. I find the Matt Fraser videos really help me realize that our loved ones are still there and aware of our lives. You can still talk to them - they are just on the other side of a thin veil.
My deepest sympathy for the loss of your beloved grandparents. I salute your courage in making this video! Grieving is so intense and hard, especially in the midst of work and family pressures. I hope you can find ways to refill the gas in your emotional tank Please hire someone to screen your comments and take some breaks. You are an amazing artist and deserve lots of talc!
Oh honey, you are precious. Thank you for creating this amazing channel. But more so, thank you for sharing the beautiful story of your grandparents and the heartbreak you felt at their end of life. Grandparents too, are precious. Much love to you Gabi ❤
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave me such a sweet comment. It really does mean the world to me. ❤
I am very sorry for your loss, Gabi. Thank you for every word you said in this video, it is important that people understand what it means to be a content creator. All the best for you and your family!
You are a breath of fresh air. Thank God you are gorgeous and share wonderful tips to those of us that have grown older but love to hear and see what is current. You deliver it your message beautifully. Thank you
Oh my goodness, I am so sorry you lost your grandparents. I lost my parents a few years ago, (I'm 70) and it is so so hard. I miss them so much. I have a teensy channel, and yes, it's hard, and people don't like sponsorships. But we do what we have to do. And I love your eyebrows. I have learned so much about makeup from you. I am so happy to have found your channel. Hugs, Jeanie xx
I stopped scrawling the second I saw your face. These are challenging times , it is all about changes. At a collective level most of us are directed to change our perspectives on how we view the world around us but what part we play as individuals as well. I truly believe you are answering your calling. This channel is unique, real and VERY MUCH NEEDED. You speak from the heart and are touching on a subject THAT WE ALL CAN RELATE. A safe place to do so. You are connecting with many. That is your calling!! GOD BLESS YOU!! THANK YOU!❤❤❤
