It’s even worse in Canadian dollars 😭 what retails in the US for $20 is $27 for us Canadians! Whyyyyyy 😢 I can’t justify $30 per makeup item, it’s so much money. Even drugstore makeup is typically $15 per item.
I went to my Sephora in kohls near me and they had the Tower 28 “it’s a mauve-ment” set of one full size blush and one full size lipgloss in a purple/mauve color for a monochrome look and I want to say the gift set was only $27. Love love love both of them! The gloss is so cushy feeling but not sticky at all. I recently also bought the Sephora rouge lacquer lipsticks and lip liners and am loving them!
When I tell you I needed a video from you today, I mean it lol. This week has been rough and it always relaxes me to watch your videos. Thank you for being awesome.
Happy Friday everybody!! I'm so glad the elf halo glow wasn't what was breaking you out! I've repurchased it already! It's probably my favorite release of 2023 from the drugstore!! ❤
Watching from Talasnal - a tiny mountainside village in Portugal…enjoying a little bit of home while on our trip!!! 😊 (and happy to have the toiletries travel bag you recommend that fits so much stuff!!)
I have been loving the Tower 28 mascara & Beach Please blush for a while! I picked up the Tower 28 lippies to my 2 daughters’ stockings, so I’m happy to hear that you love using them!! ❤
OMG I have never been so early! I see a new video from jessica and I click! Love all your content and so glad I found your channel. Jess, you a breath of fresh air! 🥰
Mrs. Braun over here still being a teacher because she makes me look up new vocab words. Currently it is remiss. 😂 I love the Tower 28 glosses, but it hurts me to pay a higher price for mascara when there’s so many good ones at the drugstore. The Tower 28 glosses are pretty much the same price as the drugstore glosses nowadays. 🙄 HAVING SAID THAT, I think I will go ahead and try that mascara…THANKS JESS. 😅
Love the recommendations! I’ve got the tower 28 in my cart and a few other things! But really I need to know where did you get that top you’re wearing in the video? So pretty and such a flattering color.
PSA: The other day, I was watching a video by Dr. Shereene Idris, where she was talking about lash growth serums that contain prostaglandin analogs. Turns out, they can cause fat loss in your under eye area. 😢 After this tube of Grande Lash runs out, I’m going to stick to the peptide based serums, like the one from The Ordinary.
I picked up rare beauty lipliner in wise this time on sale and love the formula, also picked up Farmacy green clean makeup remover balm, but the most exciting things I got is Patric Ta major dimmensions 3 pallete and I cannot wait for it to arrive.. I am most excited about that hehe.. I have tower 28 lip glosses and mascara and I absolutely love them
I so know what you mean with the wind feeling, I get the same feeling when I put eye drops in my eyes. Like it's messing with your equilibrium or something.
I think I'm literally the only person in the world who hates the tower 28 mascara hahaha. I bought it a few months ago to try and returned it!!! It was SO clumpy nasty on me
Nope. I hated it too, so clumpy and got everywhere. I was so disappointed I thought I was just doing it wrong. Sorry it didn't work for you but so glad it's not just me.
Loved this!! Soooooooo I tried the tower 28 mascara but I ended up returning it because it was way too heavy on my lashes… i wanted to love it! and it made me so sad because it seems everyone loves it 😞
Jessica I just bought the Make up Forever HD concealer! I love it even do the coverage on my dar redish under-eyes isn’t the best is so skin like u can hardly tell there is makeup there! I was bummed u didn’t try it please use it soon i wanna know u thoughts on it!
Love love love videos like this one! I always look forward to your opinions on products and your recommendations 😊 I love the look today and the lip combo! GAH! Chefs kiss! I have already ordered the tower 28 mascara to try. I’m really hoping I like it. It seems ppl either really like it or really hate it. I’m definitely going to try out more of the tower 28 products 🎉 hope you have a great weekend! 💖💕
Girl I am the one that didn’t love the Tower 28 mascara 😫 it transferred sooo badly on me. But I do love the cream blushes and bronzers they were my first cream blushes ever and they go wonderful over powder
Hi Jessica I’ve bought so many products with your recommendations. You have never sent me in the wrong direction. Thank you for letting us know your color recommendations also. that has been SO HELPFUL!! Your eyeshadow is so pretty. Not sparkly and over done. I’m 68 so that ship sailed long ago… Could you tell me the product and color?
Hey, Jessie! What was that cute, little under-eye setting brush you used with the LYS powder? It was the brush you used to set your under eyes. I couldn’t locate it in the description!
Jess, I apologize if you’ve answered this question before but have you experienced any side effects from the Grande Lash serum? Your lashes are GORG but I’ve heard of people having like permanently red eyes and sunken in eyes so I’m afraid.
It WORKS, but I do get red eyes (the skin around my eyes) when I use it. Concealer and/or foundation covers it fine, but yes, it does happen for me. It only happens if I use it though. I don't have it/get it on days I don't use it.
I used to use it all the time and it can definitely sink your eyes in. I’m saying it bc I always suffered from puffy eyes and had a little fat deposit beneath my eye… and that’s all gone. I’m also afraid it may have made my mussel amber eyes darker… But then sometimes I think that’s in my head bc some days my eyes look very light some days they look darker and sometimes they look green.
I believe it's prostaglandins in the lash serums that cause the problems. Some people develop severe eye dryness that doesn't go away when they stop using the serums. There's one that doesn't use prostaglandin....I can't remember which one. I've heard the results from that one aren't that dramatic. Personally I'm not willing to risk any damage to my eyes, so I've never used any of them.
The tower 28 mascara made my lashes drop immediately and I had curled them. I have no use anymore for mascaras that don’t hold curl. Pretty much all my waterproof L’Oréal mascaras will hold curl endlessly. Lots of hype about that one and the caliray and I didn’t like either of them. 😬
Sooooo...... I hate to be THAT person who does not get along with the viral product, but I absolutely could not stand the Fan Fest mascara. I have naturally longer lashes, but somehow, it made them look shorter. And I know what some of you may be saying/thinking: "Oh, don't be so overdramatic." I promise you, I am the farthest from dramatic that anyone can get. I tried combining this with a primer that has worked well with other problematic mascaras as well as some of my ride-or-die mascaras. No matter what I've tried, it just would not behave like a mascara should. Of all makeup products, I think this category fascinates me the most. I cannot understand why there is such a vast difference in experiences with any given mascara, even when climate, skin type, lifestyle, and "lash type" are accounted for. Ah well, for those that this mascara works for, more power to you!
The Sephora Best Skin Ever foundation is hands down the ugliest foundation I’ve ever put on my face. It highlighted every wrinkle, line and bit of texture I have and gave me a few I didn’t know about. I tried it for several days and returned it. I would not recommend if you have any texture or normal to dry skin, unless you want to look like the crypt keeper.

Yeah, I get wind too!😮
This is what I need! I WANT the pricier stuff, but I know I can’t really justify it (even at the discount), so here we go!
I feel your pain; I am a lip gloss/treatment lover but I find it impossible to pay full price. Everything hovers around $30 now.
It’s even worse in Canadian dollars 😭 what retails in the US for $20 is $27 for us Canadians! Whyyyyyy 😢 I can’t justify $30 per makeup item, it’s so much money. Even drugstore makeup is typically $15 per item.
Is anyone else itching for Vlogmas 2023 to start?? 👏🏼👏🏼
I went to my Sephora in kohls near me and they had the Tower 28 “it’s a mauve-ment” set of one full size blush and one full size lipgloss in a purple/mauve color for a monochrome look and I want to say the gift set was only $27. Love love love both of them! The gloss is so cushy feeling but not sticky at all. I recently also bought the Sephora rouge lacquer lipsticks and lip liners and am loving them!
Jess! Can you PLEASE try the Laura Geller baked foundation???? You are the only TH-camr i trust their opinion on lol
*Whispers* "What's up" I Love that! 😊😄❤
When I tell you I needed a video from you today, I mean it lol. This week has been rough and it always relaxes me to watch your videos. Thank you for being awesome.
I normally NEVER watch Sephora or high end videos. BUT, I needed your upbeat personality today. ❤
I appreciate it so much more when you get ready with us!
Tower 28 and Rare beauty are really good affordable brands. I love the blushes from both brands, and also the tinted spf moisturisers
Love the lip liner & gloss, it matches ur shirt.
I’m so in love with the tower 28 mascara. The first time I used it I knew it was something different. It’s just so PRETTY and so flattering.
Happy Friday everybody!! I'm so glad the elf halo glow wasn't what was breaking you out! I've repurchased it already! It's probably my favorite release of 2023 from the drugstore!! ❤
You do have the best natural eyelashes!!! I want to try that mascara so bad *adds to cart*
I love the tower 28 mascara, the Lys powder and the Sephora foundation. They all get 10/10 ratings from me.
The “what’s up” whisper kinda freaked me out! 😂lol love your weirdness!
It’s so funny that you talked about that wind noise! YES!
Watching from Talasnal - a tiny mountainside village in Portugal…enjoying a little bit of home while on our trip!!! 😊 (and happy to have the toiletries travel bag you recommend that fits so much stuff!!)
I looove that lip on you. Such a beautiful flattering color❣️
Always love a video about less pricy products. Was hoping for more actually under the $20 price point though. Thanks for all you do!
Hey Jess! Hope everyone is doing well. Have a good day and a wonderful weekend ❤
I have been loving the Tower 28 mascara & Beach Please blush for a while! I picked up the Tower 28 lippies to my 2 daughters’ stockings, so I’m happy to hear that you love using them!! ❤
I finally bought the Tower 28 mascara and omg! It’s as good as everyone has said. I’m in love. If they discontinue it, I’ll be heartbroken.
OMG I have never been so early! I see a new video from jessica and I click! Love all your content and so glad I found your channel. Jess, you a breath of fresh air! 🥰
Where is this sweater from? It’s so cute! Also love the video. As long usual, your videos and channel feels so welcoming and those long days.
Yes! It’s not linked in her Amazon store so might be from somewhere else.
Love my Werby PARKER glasses!!!! Thanks lol 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
Video idea for you. If you were an everyday person and only bought 1 item in each category, what would it be
Way to start my week end with Jess ❤
Love the recs! Thanks so much🩷🩷🩷 hope you’re having a great Friday!
I love the colors on you today 💕.
Thank you Jessica ❤️ for all your insights on the faves at Sephora. You are so sweet. Have a great day.
Mrs. Braun over here still being a teacher because she makes me look up new vocab words. Currently it is remiss. 😂

Love Sephora Satin lipsticks!!!! And the 12 hour eyeliner and the lip liners! And the Smooth and Blur primer 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
Thanks for the recs! ❤😘 also, really like these sit down and grwm videos,😊
Ok I want to try the Sephora foundation now 😂
Love the recommendations! I’ve got the tower 28 in my cart and a few other things! But really I need to know where did you get that top you’re wearing in the video? So pretty and such a flattering color.
I am obsessed with the Fan Fest mascara from Benefit 😍
Good morning Jessica happy Saturday morning and happy weekend and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing
Jessica I know EXACTLY what you mean when you say you hear the wind around you !!! Ive always thouggt I was insane HAHAH
I Love that u introduce the lower cost (but quality) items. Im a retired RN on a fixed income. Ive been watching u since u started on UTube😊
I really thought you already had foundation on at the start! Your skin looks amazing!
PSA: The other day, I was watching a video by Dr. Shereene Idris, where she was talking about lash growth serums that contain prostaglandin analogs. Turns out, they can cause fat loss in your under eye area. 😢 After this tube of Grande Lash runs out, I’m going to stick to the peptide based serums, like the one from The Ordinary.
I picked up rare beauty lipliner in wise this time on sale and love the formula, also picked up Farmacy green clean makeup remover balm, but the most exciting things I got is Patric Ta major dimmensions 3 pallete and I cannot wait for it to arrive.. I am most excited about that hehe.. I have tower 28 lip glosses and mascara and I absolutely love them
Thanks for another great video. Tami
I so know what you mean with the wind feeling, I get the same feeling when I put eye drops in my eyes. Like it's messing with your equilibrium or something.
Hey Jess! I hope you’re having a blessed day! 🥰❤️
GIrl, your skin is looking AMAZING!!!!
I, too, hear the wind when I poke my eye with mascara 😂
As usual, you make me happy after sharing a vid with us! Which I love!❤
I'm going to buy the Tower 28 mascara - your lashes are amazing! Take care! 😘😘😘
I think I'm literally the only person in the world who hates the tower 28 mascara hahaha. I bought it a few months ago to try and returned it!!! It was SO clumpy nasty on me
Nope. I hated it too, so clumpy and got everywhere. I was so disappointed I thought I was just doing it wrong. Sorry it didn't work for you but so glad it's not just me.
Same!! I did not like it at all.. it wasn't clumpy on me, it just didn't give me the volume I need and it smudged everywhere!
Agreed! Totally overhyped.
I didn't like it either! I don't remember what exactly it was, but it was just meh.
Same. I hung onto it, though, because I thought it might get better with age. Nope.... I'll just stick with my lancome lash idole.
Loved this!!
Soooooooo I tried the tower 28 mascara but I ended up returning it because it was way too heavy on my lashes… i wanted to love it! and it made me so sad because it seems everyone loves it 😞
Jessica I just bought the Make up Forever HD concealer! I love it even do the coverage on my dar redish under-eyes isn’t the best is so skin like u can hardly tell there is makeup there! I was bummed u didn’t try it please use it soon i wanna know u thoughts on it!
I love this video idea! Please do a part 2 😊
Thank you for a useful and interesting video 😊😊😊
I love the Tower 28 mascara! The LYS setting powder is also a fav 💕 so happy to be getting a few bucks off these items
Yes I love the tower 28 mascara ❤❤ you got some great items to pick up !
I love your top! Where is it from? Love your videos!!❤
It’s funny because I live in Canada so most of those products are close to $30 here. The tower 28 mini mascara is $17!
Y'all have universal healthcare and gun control though. I'd be happy to trade. Lol
Part 2 and 3 please! Thank you!
Thank you Jessica for your videos, I love your sweater, where is it from? Please and thank you
Love love love videos like this one! I always look forward to your opinions on products and your recommendations 😊 I love the look today and the lip combo! GAH! Chefs kiss!

Girl I am the one that didn’t love the Tower 28 mascara 😫 it transferred sooo badly on me. But I do love the cream blushes and bronzers they were my first cream blushes ever and they go wonderful over powder

Hi Jessica

Your eyeshadow is so pretty. Not sparkly and over done. I’m 68 so that ship sailed long ago…
Could you tell me the product and color?
Jessie about Tower 28 mascara “it is time”…me hear Rafiki to Simba “It is time” 🤣🤣🤣🦁
Hey, Jessie! What was that cute, little under-eye setting brush you used with the LYS powder? It was the brush you used to set your under eyes. I couldn’t locate it in the description!
Jess! I need link to your earrings. I love it so much. If it’s from target, is it any good?
Do you use your make up vanity? It’s pretty 😊
Love the earrings ❤
Where did you get your top? Love it!
Love the videos jessica ❤
Can you mention in another video who has the better gift sets, sephora or ulta?
The wind sound yesssss 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 it sounds like you’re holding a shell up to your ear
The wind!! Yes 😂
Where are your earrings from?? Love them!
Where did you get your sweater? I love the color!!
Yes! It’s not linked in her Amazon store so might be from somewhere else.
I love this!!!! Affordable sephora!!! Yessss❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I just saw a video from Pretty Over 50 that talked about The Ordinary lash and brow serum doesn’t have the stuff that gives you red eyes.
Cheers for part 2 😊🎉💕
Xo 🇨🇦
Hey Jess, what brush did you use to set your under eyes with the LYS
I have a question on how did the brush you got for bronzer how did it work for you? I been waiting on updates.
Yes I hear the wind too!! 😂😂
Be careful when you poke your eye with mascara! I did ended up in eye emergency clinic with scratched Cornea and had to wear patch! Ouch!
The tower 28 mascara made my lashes drop immediately and I had curled them. I have no use anymore for mascaras that don’t hold curl. Pretty much all my waterproof L’Oréal mascaras will hold curl endlessly. Lots of hype about that one and the caliray and I didn’t like either of them. 😬
My tower 28 mascara got super clumpy and weird 😢
Please tell me what large powder brush you used. It looks like a large kabuki.
If I had the money I would buy everything through your affiliate links!! But for now I can only support by watching your vids love you jess❤

@itsjessicabraun Can you please tell me where your jumper is from? 🤗
Do you not like the Best Skin Ever concealer anymore? I feel like you really liked it for a minute.
I tried Tower 28 mascara and did not liked it at all. I end up with raccoon eyes and I do not have oily skin. I could not wait to throw it away
where is your necklace from??????😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
The Sephora Best Skin Ever foundation is hands down the ugliest foundation I’ve ever put on my face. It highlighted every wrinkle, line and bit of texture I have and gave me a few I didn’t know about. I tried it for several days and returned it. I would not recommend if you have any texture or normal to dry skin, unless you want to look like the crypt keeper.
Anyone know what shade she used of the YSL powder?
Sephora foundation doesn’t work for my drier older skin. It is patchy and clings to any dry patches.
Yesss!! 🎉❤
