When first going in with a stick of foundation, I have learned that less is more approach. It will last longer on your face and the creasing will be much less. It is inevitable for creasing to happen with that kind of foundation.
I’m like okay am I having déjà vu? When you said “I’m starting out with the NARS pot concealer cuz your girl is about to start her period and I need to uh cover said pimples up, period” I laughed out loud that was literally me this morning! I freaking love and adore you Allie you’re just so real ☺️❤️ There is so many new fun looking Drugstore makeup products that I want to try and we have this amazing Target that is always stocked full of the new, new but it’s an hour away from me without traffic but I’m so going to go. I really like a lot of the products you tried out in this testing new makeup video! OH SMH 🤦🏼♀️ I still have flashbacks of the Hourglass Vanish Stick foundation and how AWFUL it looked on me and truly I haven’t tried a stick foundation since lol 😂 it was so terrible on me and everyone loved it! I know that the formulas have come such a long way since what 2018/2019 when that Hourglass foundation was ultra popular but every single time I want to go ahead and get a new one the flashbacks of my coworkers and friends telling me how bad it looked come rushing back lol 😂 thank god for good friends that will tell you when you have something in your teeth, a booger in your nose or that your makeup looks like crap. I really like that NYX nano brow pencil and the Milani stick foundation on you Allie! I loved the Kosas Nano brow pencil but it went so fast because it kept breaking on me. It reminds me of that one but much more sturdy! I never used to do my brows! I would get them waxed or threaded but I never put any type of brow product in them and I look at old pictures of myself compared to now and I’m like Lauren well “Lala”girl where’s your brows sweetie oh that’s right you didn’t do anything to them lol! My brow stylist always told me I had nice natural brows and she was lying lol! My non negotiable makeup has always been mascara and a lipgloss. Now it’s also brows! I have mentioned this before I used to be such an over consumer of all things makeup, skincare, haircare, fragrance and clothing! It was out of control! I really thought I was Jaclyn Hill back in the day! Wow I have changed! I really humbled myself and slowed down years ago but even more so in 2024! My entire life changed and I have to be so mindful of my purchases! Home owner insurance and renters insurance is so important to have! I work in the Real Estate industry, I’ve been through the 2018 Camp Wildfire and that is when I stopped wasting my money on over consumption! That is crazy how cold it could snow in Orlando Florida! I was born and raised in California and I didn’t know what cold weather was until I moved here to Washington! It’s so cold Allie! My skin hurts so bad and my hands! I’m so dry right now! The other day at work someone said “Your cheeks are so RED” I felt like saying “No shit Sherlock! I already have rosacea but yes thank you for pointing out the obvious! As if I don’t see it and feel it lol you know? I had no idea that Elf released a matte primer? It definitely made your skin matte. The NYX glue primer reminds me of arts and crafts day in Elementary School! I would have thought it would have been really thick just from the name alone. I really love the newish Cover Girl glimmer gloss! The bronzer or contour stick had pigment when you applied it but it then blended into no pigment, I don’t see it. I know the Lumi blush isn’t your peachy shade you wanted but I think it’s really pretty on you Allie! I also really like the What’s Up beauty powder bronzer and blush! Really beautiful! I was super excited to see what you thought of the new Cover Girl highlighter enhancer! It looks really pretty but that’s a bummer it doesn’t blend well! I’ve been loving the Benefit Fan Fest mascara. I got a mini size and it’s really awesome! I love testing out new mascaras! Speaking of mascara. I was watching Angie’s latest video. She tested the new Gourmand Girls Volume mascara and my jaw dropped! It made her lashes look so beautiful and gave them such a fantastic curl and volume! I usually don’t like a brand new mascara. I like it to be open for a few days but that one was so stunning! I really love your eye look the Colourpop gel liner really made your eyes pop! God I love a shiny ✨ sparkly eye and lipgloss! I love the Blingtastic! Thank you for the 12 hour wear test! I agree with you the Elf side is holding on much better than the NYX primer side! I think everything really looks great especially for 12 hours! There are a lot of great products in this new Drugstore video ☺️
I decided to recreate your look today since I got the sugar palette as a christmas present...and then i dropped my palette and completely smashed the purple satiny shade on the bottom left. 😭 I had to come here and post about it because i have no one else to complain to.
@ I think you’d be an incredible story teller. When you share personal stories, you have a great way of giving detail, backstory and info that makes you feel a part of the story.
With stick foundations, I usually put it on my problem spots and then blend out. Maybe 1 swipe on each area of your face should be enough. It'll look way more skin like that way. I never used to do my brows until 2020, around the same time I started watching you! I actually love the softness of the eyeshadows, looks beautiful on you
As far as book videos or these makeup videos I am a makeup girly all the way I really don't have time to read any books but I love the makeup and when you tell stories LOL😊
Fellow oily skin girl here. I have high hopes for the ELF mattifying power grip primer. I like the original, but wanted to try one that has a matte finish. I used it for the first time this morning, so fingers crossed it holds throughout the day.
It kinda looks like snot! I laugh hard and Cliff is asleep cause he has to be up by 5a.m.. 😅😊❤ You sweet woman. You always put a smile on my face. Did you see Lone Wolf NY day camping trip in his new bigger rooftop tent? I loved it so much. He is also a professional photographer and he is so good. Anyways thought I would mention it. I like Jeremy. Nice guy! L9ve the blue and pink but I thought that outer shade would be more pigmented. I am actually wearing the ABH Soft Glam II which is the mini with, funny enough, the 8 shades I love from the bigger palette that I gave to a friend with a box full of makeup. I get a lot from Ipsy Charm so give back to our community when I can with new stuff I won't use. 😊❤
Hi Allie we got hit with the winter storm an its been really cold down in the teens at night an then we got two nights that are gonna be 9 degrees, i hope you see some flurries ❄ though. You look gorgeous as always 🧡🧡
I have been loving the new maybelline superstay lumi matte foundation. I have combo dry to oily skin. Then in the summer I’m oily mess. Side note I used the glow recipe watermelon dew drops and the relove power fix primer and then the maybelline superstay lumi matte foundation and then I lightly set it and did my makeup like normal and it lasted and looked so nice even after 10-11 hours later 😅
Just watched Erika Vieira interview w/ Jen Luv. U should watch it, you would do SOoo good in a beauty commentary niche like Jen. You’re so articulate and great at storytelling! You would easily become popular in commentary ❤ and grow quickly.
Loved the makeup look x i have the sugar and spice palette just havent used them yet x i like them and i dont get too stressed with fall out and kick up as long as it looks beautiful and it does x My skin is much more mature than yours so sadly a lot of high street/drug store brands just dont work for me for skin stuff x I need to use a more costly foundation (estee lauder double wear) otherwise it looks awful and i spent a fortune trying all the more affordable ones trying to make them work and they just didnt x as for brows i hate the trend of eye brows just now i hate gluing my brows down x i pluck them (to stop the monobrow) and shape the end to taper them and depending on my haircolour i tend to leave them be x winter i tend to add more colour to them and thats it to be honest xx keep being you xx
🎉🎉🎉 yee number three between you and I actually see this comment I just want to say you're absolutely beautiful sweet real and the reason I love watching your channel is because your soul radiates kindness
Honestly, if there is a creator i love that has posted a video im not overly interested in, i will click on the video, give it a thumbs up, and leave. Sometimes, if i can be bothered, I'll cue them up to play quietly as i sleep. Everyone wins that way, and you can still show support for your fave tubers. ❤
I lived in Englewood, Florida, which is down near Punta Gorda (40 miles or so from Sarasota) in the year 2000. We had snow flurries that year. People basically told me to go back to Montana, which is where I'm from and where I live now, and I was to take the snow with me. The people down there were NOT impressed. Lol. It's been in the teens here. We got 5 inches of snow on Saturday. Have a blessed night!!!!
Stick foundations get a bad rap!! I get 2016 ones but the 2025 ones. The Tread, mented and lys ones are bomb. I loved the huda one but I think it's disconnected. Stick are my fav formula
Foundations always come off on me in places cuz I do touch my face a lot (and rest my chin on my hand). For me it's usually a me problem and not a foundation problem
Ally I'm so happy that you really like that Eyebrow product But I would like to recommend to get a different shade because on camera it is matching your shirt That is not a great shade for you Sorry Just you kind of Just giving you feedback without having to be rude
I need a scanner so I know what I own I am upto around 1500 books currently. Anything from children books, classics, to new releases. I need a better way of cataloguing them. So let me know how easy yours is 😊
If I had your brows I wouldn't do much to him maybe just a little gel or soap or something in them to keep them in place but I have absolutely no brow hair
Please don’t feel like you need to buy the latest launches. I think it’d be cool to see a beauty tuber working their way through their collection and being on a 6m-year of a no buy.
Your eye brows just don't have a complimentary shape, like in the center arch part there's legit maybe like 2 , 3 hairs that gotta go AND not starting in the front when filling them In. And I'm saying that as a cosmotologist and makeup artist.
You would love Milani and all their products! Definitely worth a haul.
Also! Love the shade of blush on you.
Try using less of the stick foundation, like one streak on each part of the face!
Oh okay!! I will do that!!
I was talking to the screen if I wasn’t born in 81 I would be the same
When first going in with a stick of foundation, I have learned that less is more approach. It will last longer on your face and the creasing will be much less. It is inevitable for creasing to happen with that kind of foundation.
@@littleburps I never play with stick foundation so thank you 🧡
I love both book and makeup content. You do you.

Drugstore makes some amazing products! Also just thank you for taking the time to comment like this! It truly made my morning!
Hey girlie! You should do a book of the month club. So you can just do 1 day out of the month that you talk about books! I would definitely watch!
I decided to recreate your look today since I got the sugar palette as a christmas present...and then i dropped my palette and completely smashed the purple satiny shade on the bottom left. 😭 I had to come here and post about it because i have no one else to complain to.
Looking forward to the bookstuff and all the other ideas🎉
Youre so much fun 👍
The Milani stuck foundation is my new favorite foundation! It so easy & looks amazing for everyday looks!
Oh another idea! You could do a makeup and book talk series. Do your makeup while you give a synopsis of the story/chapter
I love that idea!
@ I think you’d be an incredible story teller. When you share personal stories, you have a great way of giving detail, backstory and info that makes you feel a part of the story.
I love that you are using the sugar palette today. Love recreating your looks

Commenting 1st....so excited for today's grwm! These are some of my fav videos that you do! I'm excited to see some new makeup! 🥰
Fellow oily skin girl here. I have high hopes for the ELF mattifying power grip primer. I like the original, but wanted to try one that has a matte finish. I used it for the first time this morning, so fingers crossed it holds throughout the day.

You're just the best, Allie. ❤
So are you!!
I'm in Arizona and it's like in the fifties at night and in the 70s and 80s in the day
sounds like us right now!
I have been loving the new maybelline superstay lumi matte foundation. I have combo dry to oily skin. Then in the summer I’m oily mess.
Side note I used the glow recipe watermelon dew drops and the relove power fix primer and then the maybelline superstay lumi matte foundation and then I lightly set it and did my makeup like normal and it lasted and looked so nice even after 10-11 hours later 😅
I tried shade Ash Brown today in the new Nyx brow pencil. It's way more cool/neutral and I think it would work better for you too. 😊
Ohh thank you!
Yes yes and yes 💜💜💜💜💜 I was the same abou Brows LOL all the makeup and no brows
Omg im from WV. Still here, covered in snow, cold af. Lolol!!!!!!
Stay warm!
It looks great friend it doesn’t look like your wearing anything

My skin is much more mature than yours so sadly a lot of high street/drug store brands just dont work for me for skin stuff x
I need to use a more costly foundation (estee lauder double wear) otherwise it looks awful and i spent a fortune trying all the more affordable ones trying to make them work and they just didnt x as for brows i hate the trend of eye brows just now i hate gluing my brows down x i pluck them (to stop the monobrow) and shape the end to taper them and depending on my haircolour i tend to leave them be x winter i tend to add more colour to them and thats it to be honest xx keep being you xx
I just received my makeup forever lip liner and I'm lovin it! I can't wait to try more from the brand 😅
I’m so excited for you to try it!
Hi! So I'm here watching this but also wondering what book scanner you got because I need! 😮
Oh! I'll make sure I link it when I do my video! It's from amazon!
🎉🎉🎉 yee number three between you and I actually see this comment I just want to say you're absolutely beautiful sweet real and the reason I love watching your channel is because your soul radiates kindness
Omg Tonya you are so incredibly sweet!! I’m sending you so much love!
the eyes came out beautiful ❤
thank you!
@ i always admire how you mix different multi chromatic colors nd it looks so good on you love 💕 ur videos love
I actually have never done my brows lol. And I used to be really into mascara, but the last couple of years, I've not done mascara either. Lol.
Thank goodness for those of us that habe those true friends! My bestie can be counted on for her honesty about my makeup looks! ❤
All stick foundations do that pore thing to me. I try it on my hand now and I can see every pore on my hand lol.
Honestly, if there is a creator i love that has posted a video im not overly interested in, i will click on the video, give it a thumbs up, and leave.

That is wild! I would’ve been shocked too
Can relate to eyebrows feeling/looking more sparse. I’m 37 this year and I’m noticing it so badly with my eyebrows. Lol so mad at my 2000’s self🤣🤣
I remember when it snowed in '77 in Palm Beach
that's pretty cool!
Good video
Stick foundations get a bad rap!! I get 2016 ones but the 2025 ones. The Tread, mented and lys ones are bomb. I loved the huda one but I think it's disconnected. Stick are my fav formula
I think it’s because I have so much oily skin
Im oily too! My akin carenis bery hydrating but my makeup is very matte because in two hours ill be glowy haha. @AllieDawson
Hey 👋 Allie ❤😊
Hello!
Foundations always come off on me in places cuz I do touch my face a lot (and rest my chin on my hand). For me it's usually a me problem and not a foundation problem
You know I do that too!!!
💕✨💕✨💕✨💕✨💕✨💕
Just voted for Corey. He's in first place right now!!!
I didn’t do my brows for year, didn’t really start doing it until I started my channel which wasn’t that long ago lol
Yeah I went almost my entire 20s never doing it!
@@AllieDawson I was late 40s hahaha 🤭
🥶 Allie time 🥶
Woohoo!
hi gorgeous!
Hey there! 😄
Ally I'm so happy that you really like that Eyebrow product But I would like to recommend to get a different shade because on camera it is matching your shirt That is not a great shade for you Sorry Just you kind of Just giving you feedback without having to be rude
I appreciate you looking out for me!
@AllieDawson you welcome
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hey Allie
Hello!
💖🙌🏼
Hey!!
Hello!
I need a scanner so I know what I own I am upto around 1500 books currently. Anything from children books, classics, to new releases. I need a better way of cataloguing them. So let me know how easy yours is 😊
Beautiful 😍 🩵
Thank you! 😊
The reason your lips were burning could be because that first DRY lip pencil was tugging so much or it has a plumper. 😊❤
that could be it!
Oh Allie way to much foundation 😮
I find 99.9% of brown pencils pull red on me. It is a huge bummer
It truly is! Like why is that??
If I had your brows I wouldn't do much to him maybe just a little gel or soap or something in them to keep them in place but I have absolutely no brow hair
I can try that!
Please don’t feel like you need to buy the latest launches. I think it’d be cool to see a beauty tuber working their way through their collection and being on a 6m-year of a no buy.
Oh i am only buying what I generally want too now!
@ I LOVE that so much!! I really think 2025 is going to be a great year for you 🫶🏼
Your eye brows just don't have a complimentary shape, like in the center arch part there's legit maybe like 2 , 3 hairs that gotta go AND not starting in the front when filling them In. And I'm saying that as a cosmotologist and makeup artist.
