Honestly, I think it sets a much better example that you use the products that you have instead of just buy new products just for the sake of the people that want to buy them. If we are honest, there are tons of red lipsticks (or any other color) on the market, if I'm feeling inspired by something you are wearing I can always shop my own collection :)
Exactly! Imagine complaining because you’re using a product that’s not for sale? smh. Not everything is about selling something. You’re allowed to use whatever you want on your channel. Don’t pander to that nonsense Lan
Shouldn’t we normalise not buying everything we see five minutes on the internet though ? If you love your lipsticks use them. Most likely what people like is the overall look and the effect the lipstick brings, they can find a dupe and use you as inspiration.
10000% I agree with you! At the end of the day, a red lip is a red lip haha but I totally understand when a very specific glorious pink cannot be found anywhere 😂
Absolutely yes to continue playing w/ the products you own, even if they are discontinued. I believe the majority of your tribe follows you for all the content, not just to click and buy. I enjoy seeing your day, your week, your life. It’s inspiring, motivating and quite frankly, funny 😊.
Definitely use what you have even if it’s not available anymore. That’s what normal people do. If people have an issue with that they need to get a life. Don’t listen to them ❤
HI Meryl !! Yoga with Meryl - there's a new series you could film; she's so cute.. I always watch your YT videos (old school); but will watch the Meryl yoga Tik Tok's... 😺😺
I never understood why people couldn’t show discontinued or limited edition products… what about all the people who already bought and still have those products? I’m sure they’d love to watch videos on them still!
Allana I am loving the colorful lips on you, I don’t cart if they are discontinued products, we can always match from what we have. The nails are so pretty, I don’t know that I have ever noticed you with dark nail color and I am loving the change up for you. Keep it coming. 😘
You know what we could do? if anyone knows the lipstick dupe for that shade, say in the comments! at one point, Allana will know and even be able to say so in the video or mention in the description 😂 Keep on wearing your bright lipstick!🥰
I love seeing people use older makeup products! It helps me realize I don't need every new thing and often I have something similar already anyway. This way I'm inspired to use products I already own to recreate a look.
I love a red lip and today I came up with the BEST hack. I'm definitely not the first person to ever do this but I lined my lips with a liquid matt lipstick on an angle brush and used a cream bullet lipstick to fill in the rest. It worked really, really well.
Live your life! Who cares if it’s a discontinued shade or product?! I love your commitment/effort to consume less and use what you have. We should all do the same instead of buying everything we see someone else use or whatever launches that week.
Also, have you thought about slugging? I also have super dry skin and after I finish my nighttime skincare and put my moisturizer on, I cover my face in the CeraVe healing ointment. It has basically saved my skin.
Crack on with the discontinued items. That colour was fab. I saw the yoga (Meryl and me) and it was so sweet. I believe you could have your own account. Adorable and more more more please. Thank you 🙏 ❤❤❤
Girl you do you! Don’t let the mean comments discourage you. I think it’s admirable that you’re trying to do your part in this world of overconsumption we live in.❤
1. I definitely think shopping your stash, even if the product isn't available, is better. 2. Meryl is soo cute😻 3. LOVE your steak and egg dinner tuft design!!! 😂
Allana, I have been a very loyal ( and silent) follower for the past 5 years! I just want to say that this makeup look (the first one)is just 🔥🔥 It is so heartwarming to witness your growth for the past years! you seem so happy and thriving and I love that for you!
I think it’s great to encourage us to shop our stash. Many of us also have tons of lip products that we’ve forgotten about that we should go through and use!
Prices are crazy. And for someone like me and my family that is considered "lower class," we are struggling girl. My poor daughter and her 2 kids and fiance can't catch a break. Housing and gas nuts! It's so hard for them, especially, and I feel so bad. Sorry, I had to rant. Lol Anyway, I love watching your content ♥️ brings a little joy each wk. Thank you for that
Can’t get enough of Meryl 💜 would adore a cat like this to own. I know she is extremely chatty but what a personality. She matches her mommy 🥰. She could have her own Instagram followers.
Honestly most people can’t afford to click and purchase every time we see something so perfect, so I definitely don’t watch channels that are basically product commercials. I love watching your channel and creating looks with similar items I already own, or techniques I haven’t seen or tried before.
You’re so funny, I love watching your videos! Random fact, you were the first TH-camr I ever subscribed to. OG. Also, I love the chocolate nails! I got mine done chocolate too in prep for Valentine’s! Everyone normally does red for love but you receive chocolate 😉
A happy medium between showing available products vs shopping your stash would be to try to find similar shades! You could wear a fun colour to Sephora and make it your mission to find a similar colour/swatch a few to find similars! That way you’re using your old favs but finding fun alternatives for followers
I think, the inspiration of wearing a bright lip, and the make up that goes with it, can be enough! We should ALL be shopping our stash and using our own bright lips we have that are barely used! So discontinued or whatever, use them! We can all find a different bright pink or coral or red that maybe isn’t exactly the same, but dang it’s close enough!!!!! Meryl’s yoga is the CUTEST!!!
I don’t mind you using products that are limited edition or discontinued- if anything, I use it for inspiration to either consider a new purchase or find something similar in my make up bag!
I'm fairly sure you can return things in Shoppers.. They don't have testers, so you're allowed to return (even having used the product) within 30 days!
I like to see you use products you love even if they’re discontinued. There’s so much make up on the market that we can all find something similar if we want to recreate a look.
I have those Bobbi brown lip crayon lipsticks. And now you’ve reminded me to go dig it up and use it. So thank you for reminding me I have that product & I will use it again thanks to this video and you showing elder items . 😊
I say keep showing off the discontinued products that you love, maybe the brands will listen and bring them back! ❤ love using what you have instead of consuming more and adding to the trash ❤
I watch your videos because I like listening to you talk and watching you put stuff on! I don’t care if any of it is available for me to buy but that’s just me. You’re my favorite TH-camr!
First up I want to second everyone who’s already said they love love love this bid for sustainability when it comes to the fashion and beauty items we already own and seeing someone try to make a genuine effort to showcase that is amazing. I’m definitely the person who has a giant makeup kit that’s kind of turned into a sad graveyard for products because one time I loved a product or wanted to use that product for a specific set of looks but could only buy it in one size and that size ends up being too big and too much. I think there’s definitely something to be said about brands that make travel/smaller sized version of their items or like with Sephora if you try something and don’t love it or it doesn’t work for you, you can return or exchange it, which is amazing! (Really helps when you are looking for just the right product) A note about the followers/people getting made in the DMs. It’s definitely been my experience where someone is wearing a beautiful product in a video and I’m like ooh yes I want to add that to my life and turns out the product for example, the lip products Allana has been mentioning, that because I have a different undertone or skin tone or base lip colour, etc etc etc whatever the endless possible of reason there might be. I actually can’t always pick the exact product shown and I have found that instead of getting mad (because really where is this gonna get you…) at the person on TH-cam just living their life and sharing said life with us, I change my mindset and choose to take inspiration instead. Like for that beautiful orange-y red shade Allana is wearing, Sephora with all their lovely brands and price ranges have multiple alternatives in existence and I think it’s better to find the one that fits best on your person, because than the makeup look ends looking more authentic too ✌️✌️✌️ Anyways that’s just my rambly take in it.
Ignore the meanies and use up your products! It sets such a good example to consume and waste less for those who watch, and it's nice to reminisce on old products that we've loved over the years :)
Some of the comments saying it sets a good example because you are using what you currently have instead of spending more money on another product you have tons of is exactly what I came here to say!!! Love your videos and doesn’t matter to me if it is discontinued or not. You make me laugh and say or do silly things I like to do when I’m putting on my makeup talking to myself lolllll
I’m a cat mom and I just get a kick out of Merrill the she just meows randomly in your video. She’s so cute keep her in your videos she’s a hoot. Love you too Allana ! Norma
I fully enjoy you enjoying your discontinued/limited addition items and it does not bother me one bit that it's not available for purchase. You keep doing you girl!
Argh, yes, inflation is absolutely crazy! That's why I think you should absolutely wear whatever makeup you want/already own. Save the money! 😄 I commented on how I love your lipstick when you posted the photos/videos from your nail/hair appointment on IG. But it was just that - a complement! :) I didn't expect you tell me what it is. I genuinely loved it on you and thought it would encourage you to keep with whole "use more bright lip colours" goal you set for yourself for this year. :)
I'm determined to use all of the makeup I have bought, not buying any new makeup unless is something I need to replace. Don't feel bad showing us anything that has been discontinued I'm pretty sure we all have something similar 🙂
Lol, Dejan exposing you. :D That's something I've always wondered about people who workout every single day, on days where I hoover and mop everywhere or shovel etc. I count that as a workout, because it is for me, I am out after that. :'D
Ok my biggest thing is the size of products! I have some gorgeous makeup but since I don’t use everything daily, I’ve had some things for yearssss. I wish brands offered minis for their a majority of their products. I end up sticking with what I know because it’s not worth having fun and experimenting if I’m spending $60 on a full size blush I know I’ll only use sparingly and just have to throw out after a year because it gets moldy.
i'm gonna go shop my stash now and fish out the Art Stick I bought because I saw you using it back in the day, so thank you for reminding me of it ❤️❤️❤️
I say use what you have an enjoy them. Time goes on and by the time you finish them, there will be better or more beautiful shades that will be on the market. We also change with time; our skin tone changes, skin changes... we may end up needing other products.. So, use and enjoy what you have. This is about you and not about others. .. and on another note... great haircut! 😊😊💖💖
Use your limited edition and dc'd products! I love seeing people wearing the things they Love. This is real life and the products are made to be loved and used.
Quick economics: will prices keep going up forever? Yes. It’s all about offer/demand. When inflation hit an all time high last year, prices went up really quickly. But now it’s slowing down, so prices keep going up, just slower. Economists defend it should always go up, at a small rate of course, because it’s a cycle. People are making more money, they have more money to spend, they spend too much money and you start having too much demand (specially bad if prices go down). In this case, you will start having a hard time keeping up with demand. If inflation gets too high, and prices rise too quickly, we hit a recession because people can’t afford anything. In conclusion, yes prices will always have to go up but salaries typically go up as well. (The problem the last few years is that salaries are not growing at a rate like in past years but that’s a whole different conversation)
I love when you pull out old products. I have to confess tho. I still have the Lancôme Lip Laquers. I’ve been using them all Feb. so much so that I think it gave me a chemical burn on my lip. Oh well. I have to use them up.
You should definitely use your stash as you please without worrying about if it is linkable or still available to buy there is a plethora of make up in this world if someone is obsessed they can take the time to find a similar product or color. Products being discontinued is not your problem to need to worry about ♥️
Beautiful Lan! I absolutely love your fried eggs and ham!!!! 😂😍😍😍 so so cool and I totally think it looks like a cactus!!! 🌵Love love love. Lush vlog. Really enjoyed. And Meryl yoga 😭🐈⬛❤ Have a great week 😘😘😘
I think when you wear the products you have and share, maybe you can post a similar item that is available! Like another Pat McGrath lipstick similar to the one you’re wearing. I love that you’re just using what you have 🫶🏽
People need to learn what inspiration is and put in some effort themselves. I am so here for more sustainable approach and using up the products you have!
Ps: I don’t have TikTok but I have watched yoga with Meryl vid and it is the most beautiful wholesome thing ever! My cat used to do yoga with me too and I miss that so much
Girl, PLAY with the products you have! The reality is, if I wanted to buy the look that you put together, none of the shades would look exactly the same on me anyway. Even the formulas will often feel / apply differently on different skin types. When I clicked on the video and saw your lip color, I thought, "Ooh, I love that look. I wonder what color I could use to get the same affect." I'm inspired by the vibe, not expecting to be able to buy the exact look. Love it.
I'm also not an economist lol but if you want to know more about economics i would recommend the podcast Planet Money!! Each episode is like 20ish minutes and they make it really interesting!!! like a lil vitamin for your brain
Honestly, I think it sets a much better example that you use the products that you have instead of just buy new products just for the sake of the people that want to buy them. If we are honest, there are tons of red lipsticks (or any other color) on the market, if I'm feeling inspired by something you are wearing I can always shop my own collection :)

Same
Also while prob not too hygienic the wiping the dust layer off is so real ahahah
Absolutely 💯
I agree 100%
Shouldn’t we normalise not buying everything we see five minutes on the internet though ? If you love your lipsticks use them. Most likely what people like is the overall look and the effect the lipstick brings, they can find a dupe and use you as inspiration.
10000% I agree with you! At the end of the day, a red lip is a red lip haha but I totally understand when a very specific glorious pink cannot be found anywhere 😂
Carry on showing us older things it’s not the specific item it’s more about the vibe ❤
Absolutely yes to continue playing w/ the products you own, even if they are discontinued. I believe the majority of your tribe follows you for all the content, not just to click and buy. I enjoy seeing your day, your week, your life. It’s inspiring, motivating and quite frankly, funny 😊.

Seeing Meryl is always such an absolute treat i love her little maow
She just wants to chat with everyone hahaha
HI Meryl !! Yoga with Meryl - there's a new series you could film; she's so cute.. I always watch your YT videos (old school); but will watch the Meryl yoga Tik Tok's... 😺😺
I never understood why people couldn’t show discontinued or limited edition products… what about all the people who already bought and still have those products? I’m sure they’d love to watch videos on them still!
Totally agree! Esp old eye shadow palettes that live forever 😂 they need love too!
Allana I am loving the colorful lips on you, I don’t cart if they are discontinued products, we can always match from what we have. The nails are so pretty, I don’t know that I have ever noticed you with dark nail color and I am loving the change up for you. Keep it coming. 😘

Please continue playing with the bright lips. You’ve inspired me to pull out my red lipsticks again. So don’t mind all the noise.
I love a red lip and today I came up with the BEST hack. I'm definitely not the first person to ever do this but I lined my lips with a liquid matt lipstick on an angle brush and used a cream bullet lipstick to fill in the rest. It worked really, really well.
Live your life! Who cares if it’s a discontinued shade or product?! I love your commitment/effort to consume less and use what you have. We should all do the same instead of buying everything we see someone else use or whatever launches that week.
I think we need the full 30 minute video of Meryl doing yoga.
100 % YES
Absolutely!
Looove the nails! Dramatic colours look so good on short nails. Really chic and expensive- looking
I love how talkative Meryl is, she is the cutest. At yoga, too! ❤
Also, have you thought about slugging? I also have super dry skin and after I finish my nighttime skincare and put my moisturizer on, I cover my face in the CeraVe healing ointment. It has basically saved my skin.
You can definitely continue showing discontinued products, and maybe you could try to find similar shades that are available. No pressure here ❤
😂 I don’t remember the last time somebody made me laugh as hard as you did about your steak & eggs dinner art - thank you!
Help 😂😂 🥗🥗
It actually looks like a very decent job for your first attempt, and the fun you had is what counts 😊
Crack on with the discontinued items. That colour was fab. I saw the yoga (Meryl and me) and it was so sweet. I believe you could have your own account. Adorable and more more more please. Thank you 🙏 ❤❤❤
Girl you do you! Don’t let the mean comments discourage you. I think it’s admirable that you’re trying to do your part in this world of overconsumption we live in.❤
I love the amount of screen time Meryl has been getting. We need to nominate her for best supporting meowactress award. 🏆
1. I definitely think shopping your stash, even if the product isn't available, is better.
2. Meryl is soo cute😻
3. LOVE your steak and egg dinner tuft design!!! 😂
The bright lips look sooo good on you!! It’s a nice change up from daily beige. You are also inspiring me to finish up my make up!!❤❤
Allana, I have been a very loyal ( and silent) follower for the past 5 years! I just want to say that this makeup look (the first one)is just 🔥🔥
It is so heartwarming to witness your growth for the past years! you seem so happy and thriving and I love that for you!

Meryl at the end of the video so cute 🫠🥰
the yogameryl video made me crack up and sob at the same time she's such an angel
😂🧘♀️
I absolutely love that you're trying to use up the makeup that you have! We need to see more of that 🫶🏻
Can’t get enough of Meryl 💜 would adore a cat like this to own. I know she is extremely chatty but what a personality. She matches her mommy 🥰. She could have her own Instagram followers.
You have the best friend group! It’s nice how you all make it a priority to spend time together. I love it!❤
Honestly most people can’t afford to click and purchase every time we see something so perfect, so I definitely don’t watch channels that are basically product commercials. I love watching your channel and creating looks with similar items I already own, or techniques I haven’t seen or tried before.
Nails look so good! Hair as always beautiful! 💐💐💐💐
Loving the HGW content on all platforms. It keeps me so motivated
Allana!!!! Your hair is looking so brunette in some clips and WOW 😍 you look absolutely stunning and radiant!
You’re so funny, I love watching your videos! Random fact, you were the first TH-camr I ever subscribed to. OG. Also, I love the chocolate nails! I got mine done chocolate too in prep for Valentine’s! Everyone normally does red for love but you receive chocolate 😉
Thank you for being here all of this time 🥹🫶🏻 and brilliant nail choice for vday I didn’t consider that 😂🍫
A happy medium between showing available products vs shopping your stash would be to try to find similar shades!

The way I cackled at your tufted 'dinner plate' hahaaaa! Made my day! Sending love x
I don’t mind you using products that are limited edition or discontinued- if anything, I use it for inspiration to either consider a new purchase or find something similar in my make up bag!
Honestly, I love you sharing something just because you love it ( talking about the vintagy jumper from Lacoste)
i can tell that meryl is so loved even more these days than ever
I'm fairly sure you can return things in Shoppers.. They don't have testers, so you're allowed to return (even having used the product) within 30 days!
I like to see you use products you love even if they’re discontinued. There’s so much make up on the market that we can all find something similar if we want to recreate a look.
I have those Bobbi brown lip crayon lipsticks. And now you’ve reminded me to go dig it up and use it. So thank you for reminding me I have that product & I will use it again thanks to this video and you showing elder items . 😊
Definitely wear and show the products you want to use! I don’t mind if they are discontinued at all! 🤍
I say keep showing off the discontinued products that you love, maybe the brands will listen and bring them back! ❤ love using what you have instead of consuming more and adding to the trash ❤

Ignore the meanies and use up your products! It sets such a good example to consume and waste less for those who watch, and it's nice to reminisce on old products that we've loved over the years :)
I use the makeup I already own when I try to redo a makeup from TH-cam! I think it's a good thing that you're doing 🤩
Shovelling snow for 2hrs is definitely my version of HGW! ♥️❄️
It was no joke 😴🥲☃️
Awww 🥰 Meryl yoga-in was just the best. Your hair and nails were absolutely gorgeous. Love you 😘 Allana ❤
You can totally return the foundations. I was told by a Shoppers associate that they can be returned within 30 days. Hope it helps!
LOL!! Honestly I love the vlogs and Meryl is the cutest!!
Some of the comments saying it sets a good example because you are using what you currently have instead of spending more money on another product you have tons of is exactly what I came here to say!!! Love your videos and doesn’t matter to me if it is discontinued or not. You make me laugh and say or do silly things I like to do when I’m putting on my makeup talking to myself lolllll
It’s not about buying the products. We watch the videos for you Allana ❤
I’m a cat mom and I just get a kick out of Merrill the she just meows randomly in your video. She’s so cute keep her in your videos she’s a hoot. Love you too Allana !
Norma
Your love of Caudalie makes me trust anything you say haha. They’re an amazing brand.
absolutely use your products! by using your products you're also simultaneously halting consumerism running rampant :)
Meryl is so adorable! I have to watch your TikTok. 💕
I fully enjoy you enjoying your discontinued/limited addition items and it does not bother me one bit that it's not available for purchase. You keep doing you girl!
Argh, yes, inflation is absolutely crazy!
That's why I think you should absolutely wear whatever makeup you want/already own. Save the money! 😄 I commented on how I love your lipstick when you posted the photos/videos from your nail/hair appointment on IG. But it was just that - a complement! :) I didn't expect you tell me what it is. I genuinely loved it on you and thought it would encourage you to keep with whole "use more bright lip colours" goal you set for yourself for this year. :)
I'm determined to use all of the makeup I have bought, not buying any new makeup unless is something I need to replace. Don't feel bad showing us anything that has been discontinued I'm pretty sure we all have something similar 🙂
What color did you do on your nail??? Pls name the brand and color itsss amazing@!!!!!
Lol, Dejan exposing you. :D That's something I've always wondered about people who workout every single day, on days where I hoover and mop everywhere or shovel etc. I count that as a workout, because it is for me, I am out after that. :'D
It IS a workout and lots of steps too 😂
I actually lol-ed at your green eggs and ham / steak and eggs description 🤣🤣 Love Meryl yogi omg 💛
Dan’s response to the “we” in regards to shoveling - been there, heard that too. Yes, we do shovel sirs.
I really wish I had a group of friends like yours. It's beautiful to see!
That's hilarious! I had coffee in my mouth when you showed the "art project"!
The more I see that purple makeup bag, the more I love it! Please share where it's from!
Love your dark brown nails!🤎
And, btw…..I picked up that Lacoste sweater in the brown shade too! Love it!!! 🤎🤎🤎
I love when cat's do the "plop" down onto the floor 🥹 So cute
I adore seeing Meryl she is so cute!!🥰
Ok my biggest thing is the size of products! I have some gorgeous makeup but since I don’t use everything daily, I’ve had some things for yearssss.

Love the colored nails 💅🏻 also what sweater is that that you are wearing while chatting on the mat? The white half zip
loving the meryl contents 🥰
I love when you pull out old products. I have to confess tho. I still have the Lancôme Lip Laquers. I’ve been using them all Feb. so much so that I think it gave me a chemical burn on my lip. Oh well. I have to use them up.

That freakout edit at the end had my dying 😂 "and with that my friends"
Beautiful Lan! I absolutely love your fried eggs and ham!!!! 😂😍😍😍 so so cool and I totally think it looks like a cactus!!! 🌵Love love love. Lush vlog. Really enjoyed. And Meryl yoga 😭🐈⬛❤ Have a great week 😘😘😘
UM I watched Meryl snuggling during yoga!! It was sooo cute! 😭🥹
Ok Meryl yoga is so cute! ❤ Snow shoveling is no joke. You got quite a workout!😂
I watched that TikTok like thirty times!!! So cute
I think when you wear the products you have and share, maybe you can post a similar item that is available! Like another Pat McGrath lipstick similar to the one you’re wearing. I love that you’re just using what you have 🫶🏽

Can you tell us what you mix in your tumbler before working out? I know one of them is preworkout but what is the other one?
The tufting dinner plate 🤣🤣🤣🤣 omg you kill me
I love the dark nails, what polish is that please🙏🙏🙏🙏
Ps: I don’t have TikTok but I have watched yoga with Meryl vid and it is the most beautiful wholesome thing ever! My cat used to do yoga with me too and I miss that so much
Girl, PLAY with the products you have! The reality is, if I wanted to buy the look that you put together, none of the shades would look exactly the same on me anyway. Even the formulas will often feel / apply differently on different skin types. When I clicked on the video and saw your lip color, I thought, "Ooh, I love that look. I wonder what color I could use to get the same affect." I'm inspired by the vibe, not expecting to be able to buy the exact look. Love it.
That is the cutest, tiniest rug ever 😆
I'm also not an economist lol but if you want to know more about economics i would recommend the podcast Planet Money!! Each episode is like 20ish minutes and they make it really interesting!!! like a lil vitamin for your brain
Meryl thinks the Tuffting is for her. It looks like the perfect scratching pad! 😂😂
Oh you’re so right haha she’s going to destroy that 😂
I need 24 minutes of just Meryl plz
