Carrie! If you want amaaaazing texture tofu, you need to try freezing it first! Freeze it, defrost it, then press it. It’s seriously a game changer. The texture is completely different - much firmer/chewier and less spongy 👌👌
Kinda random, but I really appreciate the quality of your captions! They aren’t just auto, nonsensical captions. I have slight hearing loss and tinnitus in one ear and adhd, and sometimes I just really need the captions to be able to understand and focus fully on a video. Thank youuuu!
@@peterlosingwendy7 idk girl I just think if I say to someone “Dang this pani is a b****” they would respond with “girl then change your underwear” and I’m just not down 😂😂😂😩
Omg I am also obsessed with the Laneige lip sleeping mask! I have the one in the pink container and it doesn't have a scent that I've noticed, but anyway YES it's truly just the best stuff ever. I got a sample from Etsy or Boxy Charm a few years ago and freaked when I wanted more and saw how much it costs, but I still bought it and have continued to buy it, and it does last practically forever which makes it worth it to me.
Can you talk more about your skin and being in your 30s and having acne and acne scars? I am in my 20s and struggle with this as well and would have hoped I “out grew” this stage but that doesn’t seem to be happening anytime soon.
I’m 35 with acne and acne scars. Murad makes a dark spot corrector that works very well, as does any brightening product with vitamin c or regular exfoliation. What really works for me when I wear makeup is to take a small round brush and dot some powder on it after my foundation and/or concealer, then my setting spray. Hope that helps!
Would love an acne acceptance video! I’ve finally gotten a handle on mine after 10+ years thanks to a dermatologist, spironolactone and finacea (hormone-related cystic acne) but I still have some big ol scars on my forehead and you never forget how it feels. Skin differences should absolutely be normalized.
Cassandra Bankson has a channel based around skin care education but also has acne herself and promotes acceptance of all skin conditions. Check her out!
I am nearly out of my 20s and still dealing with it. A prescription retinoid really changed the game for me, but it was definitely a balancing act of getting the right routine.
If you still have access to UK telly check out All 4, they are the channel that has bake off and celebrity bake off is currently on there. Also I recommend 24 hours in police custody, first dates and gogglebox!
I love that you guys are so excited for UK shows!! Would suggest trying all4 or BBC iPlayer for bake off, also line of duty is a great crime show I'd you haven't already watched it! xx
I want to put this out there RE: VPNs. Yes, they are one of the best ways to protect your content and traffic. Best way to protect your traffic if you need to use public wi-fi. BUT...please consider that when you choose your location, you are subject to the data laws of that country. So if you choose China, Russia, etc...depending on the VPN, your data may still be handed over at the state-level. In short, use a PAID VPN that does not log and is audited, and do your research on a country’s data laws before picking it as your exit. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
Maybe this is just me but I feel like since you've gotten your first vaccine your whole energy has just lifted so much! It puts me in such a warm mood when I watch your videos and I'm so happy to see your spirits lifted❤️
HI! Canadian here! We have our own "great Canadian bake-off" and its identical to the UK version and there is a season on our Netflix if you wanna switch to Canada :)
There’s different levels of firmness for tofu, you should keep an eye out for a “super firm” tofu. I really like the Nasoya brand. I almost exclusively buy that, and you don’t have to press it since it’s already so firm. All I’ll do is coat in corn starch and seasonings and it’s perfect either baked, air fried, or pan fried. If I buy just “firm” tofu, I don’t press it and use that for tofu scrambles or in stir fries to replace egg so it stays fluffy.
From my understanding (anyone can correct me if I’m wrong) Asian cultures don’t even use tofu presses, they just buy the appropriate level of firmness for what they’re cooking. Western culture doesn’t really have the same appreciation for squishier types of food so I think we’re really the only ones that use a tofu press to get rid of that texture lol and use it as a meat replacement instead of just it’s own food, if that makes sense.
Someone’s already mentioned it but use all 4 for newer bake off and loads of other British goodies! (Highly recommend Derry girls) but also use BBC iPlayer loads of amazing British dramas on there!
Ahhhh I love your vlogs! If I'm completely honest... I like them more than regular videos. It seems like I'm watching a good friend of mine because we get to know you and your life better. Sending lot's of love to everyone who needs it❤ Always keep in mind - there will be better days!
You should try Herbivore's Bakuichol if you want something fancy! It's plant-based Retinol pretty much and is great for sensitive skin! Paula Choice's AHA/BHA Exfoliator is amazing too! Two holy grails I found during the pandemic.
If you want a skin game changer.. Paulas Choice AHA BHA toner. I had terrible acne for years!! Not only do I have almost clear skin now but all my scarring is pretty much completely gone!! Put a few drops in your hand and kinda put on like after shave lol. Please try it!!
Bake Off is on Channel 4 's streaming service in the uk! If you search My4 Bake off you shoud be able to find it, it doesn't have the older BBC seasons though. Also Taskmaster on there is one of the most ridiculous shows ever it's such a mood booster deffo recommend if you ever want to laugh your ass off
Carrie the great British bake off wasn’t made for U.K. netflix here it was first showed on channel 4 so all the seasons should be on channel 4 iplayer just use your vpn to watch there
I used that kombucha toner for about a month and it made me break out every single time I used it. Just shows that we all have different needs for our skin.
Try to VPN into India and try India Netflix. I forget if you need a separate account or not but since India doesn’t have Starz and other services like that, they retain a lot of the tv shows that America has removed. For example, they have every season of Outlander.
The key to crispy tofu is putting it under paper towel and a heavy skillet for half an hour (switching the paper towel for new half way through) and then bartering with corn starch!
I just saw that someone suggested you watch 24 hours in Police Custody on ALL4 omg Carrie do it! You guys will love it! And get back to me when you finish unforgotten! Love that show so much ❤️
Carrie, you’re the only another person (besides my parents, ha) that watches UNFORGOTTEN! That show is so good. It needs to get more traction stateside
You can watch bake off on 'all 4' which is a similar thing to itv hub, like a streaming service for the channel itself xx You will probably need to change your location to UK for that as well :) Also, watch 'The bay' on itv!
Lol I got that toner in an Ipsy bag and didn’t like it because it made my skin feel weird... probably because I was using it daily I didn’t know it was harsh!
Bake off has been off of UK Netflix for months - but you can see the new seasons for free on All4 which is a free app. They also have the Stand Up 2 Cancer episodes, but be prepared to cry.
UK Netflix recommendations if not available in the US : Line of Duty; Black Books; Friday Night Dinner; Wallander; Whitechapel; Jack Whitehalls Travels with my Father; The IT Crowd; White House Farm.
Hey Carrie, if you’re able to download or access All 4 with the UK VPN, there’s loads of bake off on there to watch. It’s the TV channel’s app, who broadcasts it on TV here ☺️
Unforgotten is so good, we just finished it. I'm now rewatching No Offence on chanel 4 ( streams on all4 app or website ), as a brit I'm so happy you're loving our TV. If you want to watch celebrity great British bake off on channel 4 which is great and raises money for cancer charity.
Carrie if you like cold weather you can come over here in Belgium, we had snow today.; i'm done with this cold weather, wanna swap.. love your video's keep them coming
This cracked me up because I am literally eating chocolate my in-laws sent from Belgium for Easter while watching this video and scrolling through the comments. They said it was very cold for the holiday.
Carrie, you should check out Cassandra Bankson's TH-cam channel for skincare tips too. She has oily, acne-prone skin and gives a lot of good advice for products and treatments that she loves for her own skin. It'd be such a cute collab, having you guys chat and then her recommending products for you to try. Then you reconvene on videochat 4-6 weeks later to discuss your progress with her.
YOU AREN’T CLEANING ENOUGH!!! (Channeling my inner hyram ). If you are still getting makeup residue on your cotton pad, I would definitely use a different second cleanser. If you haven’t watched (going from scientists/professional in their field to TH-camrs who like science- Dr. Dray, Dr. Vanitta Rattan, Cassandra Bankson, LA Beautyologist, James Welsh, Beauty Within, Glo by Ramon is HIGHLY recommend them. They have helped me so much with my post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. And have helped me understand what would work best on MY skin...cause your skin is different and unique and beautiful.
btw Niacinimide is more effective if you pat it in rather than rub it in! i’ve actually noticed a big difference since i’ve started doing that :) love that stuff!!!
You’re my comfort channel.
Same girl same! I was so excited she uploaded a video. I’m all cozy watching too. ❤️❤️❤️
Awww I love this description!!
SAMMMMEEEE
Saaaame
Omg me too. It’s almost midnight and I need to be asleep but I’m anxious and Im always able to eventually I’ll drift off with her vids 😭🥺🥺🥺
Carrie! If you want amaaaazing texture tofu, you need to try freezing it first! Freeze it, defrost it, then press it. It’s seriously a game changer. The texture is completely different - much firmer/chewier and less spongy 👌👌
Yes!! I was going to suggest this. Life changing.
Huh this is crazy, I've never heard this. Also will make is last longer if I don't get to it in time. 🤔🤔🤔 Thanks for the tip!
Kinda random, but I really appreciate the quality of your captions! They aren’t just auto, nonsensical captions. I have slight hearing loss and tinnitus in one ear and adhd, and sometimes I just really need the captions to be able to understand and focus fully on a video. Thank youuuu!
No Carrie we are NOT calling Rona “the pani” 😂😂😂😂💀
Why not? 😂
@@peterlosingwendy7 idk girl I just think if I say to someone “Dang this pani is a b****” they would respond with “girl then change your underwear” and I’m just not down 😂😂😂😩
The rug looks SO GOOD dow stairs now! Super cute!!!

i won’t lie... i was watching moo getting pets in the background for longer than what felt normal 😂 i need my own cat
10/10 do recommend
Me too it was too adorable 🥺🥺🤍

Absolutely agree with all of those recommendations! Gogglebox is just the best **chef’s kiss**
When you were talking about your comfort channel and me realizing your vlog channel is my comfort channel 💞
Use the CBC Gem app to watch Great British bake-off! You just have to change your location to Canada!!!
I just recently started watching the Great British Bake Off and it's one of my favorite shows now, soooo good!!!
Moo needing all the pets from Drew in the background is so sweet 🥺 also love the rug downstairs!!!
Your hair this color is EVERYTHING 🙌🏻
You literally talk like we are there with you and I love it. I feel like I’m just chatting with you irl- MY HEART 😭💛
The makeup up eraser sells smaller clothes specifically for everyday, it's the best! I love it!

Drew in the dim lighting background and petting the cat made him look like an evil villain in a movie 😂
HI! Canadian here! We have our own "great Canadian bake-off" and its identical to the UK version and there is a season on our Netflix if you wanna switch to Canada :)
Carrie you can get pre pressed tofu which is a game changer, well you can in the UK but it’s worth looking out for 😊
I totally relate to the skincare thing! I have improved my skincare routine so much since quarentine haha
I need those Hollister joggers. Do you remember which ones they are?
I love Michelle and Aline!!! Found them last year!!

The Great British Bake Off is on Channel 4 or the website All4. It's my favourite show too and there are also ones for charity and Christmas ones! x
Wow, your living room looks amazing! The rugs fit perfectly. Also, that couch looks so comfy!
I watched 3 seasons of Unforgotten over 3 days. Loved it and was sad that it ended and now you said there is season 4 ! Hooray!
Agree the sisters are adorable. Gotta watch them. I follow them as well because of Carrie ❤ And Lucy too

The Ordinary Niacinamide and Zinc and their AHA BHA red exfoliator have SAVED my skin!!!!
Oh my gosh, I love your couch!!! Where is it from??

I have that toothbrush and I have to keep it on sensitive setting or else I feel like its rattling my brain around. The vibration is so powerful.
A dress and sweats. What an ICON.
A meet up with you, Aline, Michelle would be the best day of my life ❤️🥰

You can watch the great British bake off if you go on the Channel 4 website!
Someone spill about VPNS!
Yes please!
I used that kombucha toner for about a month and it made me break out every single time I used it. Just shows that we all have different needs for our skin.

The heat has snuck up on us this year! It went from 70 to 100 in like 2 days, wtf?
Have a look on “All 4” (channel 4 in the UK’s streaming service) on your VPN...that’s where Bake Off is shown over here x
I don't know what you've watched of GBBO but because the more recent seasons have been on Channel 4 they're all available on the 4OD app ❤️
I'm considering getting a VPN, which one do you use? Hugs from central Ontario Canada 🤗🇨🇦
Me too!!
I used NordVPN!! Andrew Lowe had an amazing sponsorship on his most recent video and he sold me!
“I don’t know if this does anything but I like it” is how I feel about all my skin products 😂
The key to crispy tofu is putting it under paper towel and a heavy skillet for half an hour (switching the paper towel for new half way through) and then bartering with corn starch!
its a great day when Carrie uploads 💕😌
I have the same tofu press and I get an arm workout every time I use it LOL
for tofu - freeze it! then defrost & press. Game changer :)
I 100% remember the team LC/team Kristin shirts and I waited 4 hours at the mall to meet Kristin, Jason & Talan. Aging myself as well! LOL
I just saw that someone suggested you watch 24 hours in Police Custody on ALL4 omg Carrie do it! You guys will love it! And get back to me when you finish unforgotten! Love that show so much ❤️

For the bake off you should try channel 4. They have a player called 4 on demand and there should be some seasons of the bake off on there.
Go on All 4 for all the eps of the great British back off their are also their is also a celebrity versions on their
UK Netflix recommendations if not available in the US : Line of Duty; Black Books; Friday Night Dinner; Wallander; Whitechapel; Jack Whitehalls Travels with my Father; The IT Crowd; White House Farm.

The Team Kristin shirt was from Hollister and I definitely had one 😂
The T-shirt you’re talking about was at Abercrombie. I remember because my little sister her name is Kristen as well so she got a team Kristin shirt
There's currently 4 seasons of GBBO on Channel 4 On Demand which should work with your vpn :)
Unforgotten is so good, we just finished it. I'm now rewatching No Offence on chanel 4 ( streams on all4 app or website ), as a brit I'm so happy you're loving our TV. If you want to watch celebrity great British bake off on channel 4 which is great and raises money for cancer charity.
I joined Michelle & Alice channel. They're in NYC just like me. They're in a great neighborhood. I would like to see a collab in the future.
drew and moo in the background while you are washing your face ❤❤❤
I think you can find GBBO on Channel 4 maybe? Worth a look! ❤️
Omg how did I not know a tofu press was a thing. I always press my tofu by balancing heavy objects on top that inevitably fall over.
If you can get uk tv check our all4 for bake off. Would also highly recommend call of duty on BBC. Ps love all your content you're a gem
Where is the couch in the living room from? So pretty!
I believe Article sent them, if I remember correctly.

TWINS I have the same tofu press
Carrie where did you buy the makeup remover towel !
You might want to check out BritBox, since you love British shows so much, it sounds like you might like it (I think they have a free trial)!
YOU AREN’T CLEANING ENOUGH!!! (Channeling my inner hyram ).
