My mom used to buy the enormous jar of Estée Lauder somethingorother moisturizert (like $400!!!!), and she would keep the jar in the fridge and decant a little bit into a tiny jar as she used it.
I’d still say that any oil based or oil inclusive face/beauty products are better off refrigerated. Some oils can and do become rancid over time when exposed to extreme heat. So if you don’t keep your home at a very cool temperature all of the time, chances are that this could be happening. Also, a heated bathroom that gets humid from the bath or shower water isn’t the best place to keep your skincare items either, even if in a closed cabinet.
I never store makeup or skin care in the bathroom. I live in Michigan and my bedroom rarely gets above 60 degrees Fahrenheit. I've never had an oil or serum go bad. I think if you keep things from freezing and getting too hot you'll be ok. 😊💕
William Henig Thanks for mentioning that, William! After sending off my original comment I realized that I had omitted listing perfumes and colognes. I’ve been doing this forever, and I swear that it keeps my scents smelling like I just christened their bottles! (Plus, in the warmer months it is just so refreshing! 👍🏼)
I think this would be really good if you get a lot of those face masks from lush that have to be stored in the refrigerator, so it can be closer than the kitchen
@@tdsollog Sorry Tiff I just saw your comment. They're on sale all over the place right before school. And if you haven't gotten the fridge already Target carries them pretty regularly. Have a blessed day
I store my skincare in my mini frig. My fiancé would open it and was like normal people store food YOU store skincare. All i could say was judge yo self 😂😂😂😂😂
I keep my Vitamin C serums in fridge - keeping them in a cold, dark place keeps it from destabilizing as fast - and when you use an expensive serum, you want it to last until the very next drop.
I don't have a fancy little dedicated fridge but I do have a shelf (or two) in the door of my kitchen fridge full of perfumes, and "special" makeup & skin care (like sprays & oils) and have done for more than 20 years. I live in a hot climate and it just prevents the heat from affecting the freshness & longevity of the ingredients, plus yep it feels great on our hot days and nights. Along similar lines, I have a couple of teaspoons I keep in the freezer ice tray for depuffing the eyes, and before sharpening any eye, lip & brow pencils they go in there for 10-20 minutes (you get a nice firm sharp point quick & easy every time).
I’m currently living in the Middle East and when I get home from work, my apartment is always a bit too warm and I always head straight to the A/C to turn it on. Because of the heat, I tend to wonder about either the longevity and/or the freshness of my skincare products and even makeup. I’m now thinking a mini fridge would be just the trick! Thanks for the video and inspiration!!! ❤️
I put all my face toners in my regular refrigerator. It helps to close my pores and put my oily skin at bay. I just starting putting one of my makeup setting sprays in the fridge as well. I will see in the morning how well it works. Great video, thanks for sharing. I will stick with my full size fridge.
I like your thought that it’s a nice treat for a busy mom / caregiver who doesn’t have the time or funds for routine beauty treatments ( like manicures or other spa treatments).
I actually heard that some Jeffree Star liquid lipsticks are more pigmented when stored in the fridge ^^' so it might help some other liquid lipsticks as well
Just an idea- you might try putting dollar store bins in each level so that you can quickly pull out the bin, select what you want, and pop it back in. It seems that might allow you to use the space completely without making it difficult to reach something in the back. 💜💜💜
I definitely got a very similar mini fridge from Walmart during Black Friday for less than $20. It was marketed for a small pack of sodas but I purchased with the intention to use for beauty products.
Lol. Yeah I don't know how down I'd be for having really cold stuff on my face! My parents seriously considered getting a towel warmer for my dad. He had tons of health issues which resulted in him being cold but the main thing was he had nerve damage from shingles and whenever he was cold,something cold touched him or anything in general touching that area,it set his nerves off big time! So when he'd get in the shower my mom or i would throw his towel in the dryer and run it til he got out then my mom would give it to him. He really enjoyed it. Sadly he passed away a few months ago. He was in his mid 50s. So we never got one. But I would suggest the dryer thing cause it does feel nice and toasty! :)
Micro fridges like this are usually for sale at target and Walmart during the back to school sales in the summer. Last year I saw some Coleman ones on clearance at Target for $20 or so
**THIS COMPANY IS OVERPRICING THESE! THESE BASICALLY ARE 6-CAN MINI FRIDGES AND YOU CAN FIND THEM FOR $30 INSTEAD OF $80 ONLINE.** BUT IT IS A GREAT IDEA AND I ACTUALLY USE MY MINI IGLOO 6-CAN FRIDGE & IT LOOKS EXACTLY THE SAME LOL.
@@KateKosmo my hubby bought me a micro fridge from a thrift store for $6. It's a Coca-Cola one, and it was brand-new. We keep it in our bedroom, and we keep cans of coke and water bottles in it. It's convenient to have when you wake up thirsty.
You just gave me a great idea. Im moving to a two story house with the kitchen down stairs five miles away from the room 🙄 and i drink water all night long. 😂 im hitting the thrift store! I hope i get lucky i find one that's cute like yours.
I bought the Cooluli Mini Fridge from Amazon. Works super well, sits next to my makeup mirror, comes in pink! It makes my homemade vitamin C serum last way longer. And keeps my Nurse Betty face roller and Clarisonic eye attachment super cold so they feel really good in the morning. Love mine.
I can see a definite advantage for getting one of these for my bedroom. Right now I keep Vitamin C, Matrixl Synthe 6 and another serum in my kitchen refrigerator. The vitamin C isn't supposed to last more than six months or so, tops, but I've had it refrigerated for a year and a half and it still hasn't turned orange. So keeping the vitamin C refrigerated has definitely extended its life and saved money. Having a fridge in my bedroom might save money because I forget to use these serums, which is why I've had them for so long, and so I would be more likely to use them if they were close by. The fridge is so cute, too! 😄
Emily I just have to tell you, again, how great I think your makeup looks are without false lashes! It makes, little ole me feel as if I might be able to accomplish the makeup looks you show. Thanks for being willing to step outside the box.
I love my skincare fridge! I used to store a few products in the regular fridge until my sweet hubby got me a mini fridge for my birthday last year. It's a cute little Frigidaire that looks like a tiny retro fridge (in mint green!) that he got for less than 50 bucks at Walmart. I keep my Vitamin C serum, retinol oil, eye cream, toner, and face masks in it. I absolutely love my fridge, and I am so happy to have it!
I think if I would get one it would be because of it being more sanitary. Keeping your food and skincare apart, especially if you have sensitive skin. I wouldn’t want anything to irritate my skin so that would be my only thought on that.
A makeup fridge has never crossed my mind but now I'm beyond intrigued! Also it'll be dual purpose for me since I change my insulin pump in my bathroom so I can keep my insulin stored in it at as well and not have to walk to the kitchen fridge in the middle of the night 😂
I think I'm gonna use my dorm size fridge I've always had,although it wont be as cute! Just make sure u have a thermometer in there. Nice cool face masks sound awesome!! Love your videos, Love to you and yours.. Huggs 🤗🧡
You are so smart to start taking care of your skin now, Emily. I use my kitchen fridge to store my vitamin c, + foundations, and lip glosses I like, but not currently using. I know I would pick the pink if I bought a mini fridge. Enjoyed. Blessings, and love...MaryEllen P.S. 4 sunny days in a row, whoopee!!
I love the concept of this video, it’s new and no one is talking about it. You might also need to expand to hair care. If you use the Briogeo charcoal shampoo they recommend keeping it refrigerated for freshness since they don’t use fillers or preservatives. I haven’t needed to yet but the directions say if it separates or loses it’s jelly texture to refrigerate it.
I've been storing some makeup and skincare for years in my fridge because I live in very hot weather but it never occured to me to get a cute little fridge. I feel like I need one now 💕
I’ve been using a mini fridge for my skin care, some makeup, setting spray/primer sprays and of course water for at least 10 years. I keep my Jade and other rollers/tools in it too
I have a Cooluli one in fuchsia and I'm pretty obsessed with it! I have it in the office, sometimes I stick a mist in there just to refresh during the day. I love that I can plug it into the car and head to the beach with it too. I am actually thinking of gifting it to everyone and getting one for myself at home.
Whaaaaaa? You can plug it in the car?? I’m addicted to mists.... I drive for work & im in the car everyday! :P thanks for this tip! This is the kind of gold nuggets I love to find in comments sections ;P they can sometimes be life changing hehe
@@bodybalancer yes! It's the best. I can warm my tea, chill my fruits and my lip balm. And if you keep peppermint tea bags in the door shelf, it's a wonderful scent every time you open it.
Yes! Excited! Definitely "extra", but oh so cute! Thank you for the dupes too, I had no idea these micro fridges were a thing. I don't know what skincare you would want to keep warm, but nice to know you could throw in a Hot Pocket next your masks...lol! How many parents are stuck with a dorm room fridge after 4 years (we rented)? Great to repurpose that! The tiny fridge might be good for liquid medicines too. Have a great day Emily! 💖
There were several moments in this video where I thought you looked soo much like your sister!! Not sure if it’s the shade of lipstick or the hair or whatever, but it’s really precious! You’re both beautiful ❤️❤️
I got my skincare fridge about a year ago. I’ve had a couple and my fav right now is from Amazon by Cooluli. Super! Keep the back fan away from the wall about 3” for good air flow. Works so well.
I can DEFINITELY see Emily enjoying one of these! It’s cute & quite a fitting addition to her entire makeup persona, if that’s the correct word. I love it😊💜.
Looks like this was a lot of fun For you. ❤️I don’t like cooling stuff so this is a pass for me but I do keep my rosehip oil in the fridge which I was told keeps it good longer 😉
I can understand not wanting to put your products in your regular refrigerator simply because of odors leaking potentially (not likely, but it's possible). The fridge is adorable regardless
I have thought about getting one for upstairs for several reasons, the fist one was most of the face masks from Lush require refrigeration. Having them in my big frig I forget I have them. Then the reasons you give are all great. I also want to keep hubby's insulin in it as well, which would keep it upstairs rather than in the kitchen. Gotta look into getting one now that my beauty room is nearly done. :)
My hubby bought me that exact fridge ($20 though) for keeping my breastmilk cold after I pump at work. Now I know what to use it for when I'm done with that lol.
What a neat idea! I didn’t know there was such a thing in the marketplace. I’ve often wanted to store beauty products in the fridge, like eye gel for example, but trekking downstairs to the kitchen just wasn’t practical. Glad you are taking time to pamper yourself as you deserve it. 🤗
I use my small fridge on my bathroom counter for my skincare. I buy my oils in large sizes and put them in small dark bottles and the remainder in my large fridge. I have plastic containers from Dollar Tree I label and keep those in my big fridge. I pull out what I need, but my every night skincare I keep in my small fridge.
I have been using a regular sized refrigerator and designating a shelf for make up and skincare for about 20 years. I like to buy my favorite lipsticks and keep one or 2 in reserve in case they are discontinued. Also it will keep skincare fresher if I buy 2 or 3 at a time on sale or as a deal. Perfumes too especially if you like a rare or discontinued one and there is an opportunity to stock up. Thanks

My husband and I live 20 minutes from "town" (we wanted to live on a large plot of land), so when I go shopping... I usually go to several stores, getting groceries last. I could see using this in the car to put products in that would be affected by the sun. I live in the southern part of the US where the temperatures are very high in the summer. Inside the car gets even hotter the longer it sits in a parking lot😎 Also, when my boys were in school and we had after school activities, I always brought a small cooler containing drinks and healthy snacks in the car. (trying to avoid the fast food drive throughs!) This would work well for that! Now I could use it for grandchildren LOL!
This is definitely pretty extra, but I definitely want one! I have a lovely butterfly rash that tends to radiate a decent amount of heat. Having my products nice and chilled would be so amazing when it's flared!
I bought my son a micro fridge for Christmas for 20 bucks at Walmart. My walmart doesnt usually carry that in store. Its red and looks retro 1950s. He keeps soda cans in his. It doesnt have space on the door and the shelf is plastic but its essentially the same thing. It also heats, has a car cord for travel. Has a fan that I can hear faintly. cute.
So adorable; love the pink (my fav color)! I figure if my husband can have his special fridge in his 'man cave', then I can purchase a feminine fridge for a few pampering products. Thanks for the info on chilling some special facial/spa products as long as it doesn't break down ingredients. I guess it is important to read product info.
I also saw this on Instagram and have wanted one ever since. It is the "mini" size that draws me to this, can't resist anything mini!! I think the cooling feeling would be especially nice in the summer.
"Got a little casserole you want to take to the pot luck? Pop it in the fridge" me laughing so hard abt yr comment 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 you crack me up, Em!! 😅😅😅 ROFL
For the past ten years I've dedicated a small fridge (a proper one not the micro type) just to keep my makeup such as nail polish, lipsticks, liquid foundations, toners, facial mists and skin care.. I have found that this method prolongs the life of the products. I shop my (fridge) once a week to rotate and enjoy what I have.
living in Australia this is a must my fridge is full of my make-up especially lipsticks and balms which tend to melt to liquid in our 40 degree+ temps (100+ in US temps) during summer, if it isn't a powder it is in the fridge at my place that is why I have a little bar fridge for my water and makeup, that is cute but way to small for my stuff
🙈🙉 I have held off not purchasing these cute little fidges forever lol but now watching Emilys video has tempteted me to order one! Actually just ordered 2😳 haha 😂 why or why did I need to order two?!?!😱😣😲😩
I honestly really do need one (or two, lol) of these. I use a lot of products from small indie shops that use minimal preservatives. Plus I do a bunch of DIY products and have so many oils, etc. The whole bottom of my fridge is taken up with these things and it’s forever growing. So glad that you did this video. Thanks, gorgeous🍃🌸.
The girly colors are cute, but I have had mine for over a year and it is white by Chefman and cost half the price of yours, and I am happy with it. I do like to keep some of my serums in it, especially Vitamin C products.
Hi Emily, u can use the hot feature for something like those hot caps that are meant to out over a deep conditioner or hair mask. Idk if it would heat up enough, or if u even use those type of things. But I suppose anyone in the comments can do that if they have the fridge or plan on getting one. I think they're adorable.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I have limited space in my bathroom BUT I want to try out the chilled products. I’m going to get a plastic shoe box and put my skin care in it. I live in Arizona. Chilled products could be a great thing in summer. The fridge is adorable if I had the space I would totally get one!
I have the same exact fridge only it's a frigidaire brand and all pink. I was a bit disappointed as it's not meant to keep it on all the time. Its basically a plug-in cooler and I already had one of those for my car. Mine came with warnings saying you have to clean out the air vent area in the back before your turn it on each time because it's a major fire hazard.
There have been a few times during hot weather when my eye pencils have been too soft to use, so I would need to keep them in my fridge. Having a little makeup fridge right next to the rest of my makeup would be a bonus but not entirely necessary.
I put my goodies in a plastic Dollar Tree basket and put them in the kitchen frig but it's such a hassle retrieving them, using them and then returning them back to the kitchen. I've been seriously considering one but will go with one of the Amazon brands. Thanks for the review Emily !!! xo p
I have the Cooluli one. My experience seems to be exactly the same as yours, so I recommend it! It is definitely extra, but it’s also a small luxury all things considered, and I’m pretty pleased with it! :)
Speaking of Glossier Moon Mask, I’d love for you to do a brand overview on them! I know they’re not necessarily your aesthetic, but you have great judgement on products.
Your the first person to put me on to the makeup fridge... had no idea other youtubers were refrigerating all their skincare, but it sounds smart to me. I keep undereye gel masks and eye cream in with the milk and bbq sauce myself for the time being.
This is such a great idea! Especially with the warm weather coming. Best feeling to spritz a refreshing face mist when you have been out in the heat! I usually store in fridge but it isn't as pleasing spraying something that smells like garlic on your face 😅
Love it when you include a clip of your husband’s take on your products! Sounds like my husband; supportive & funny without trying to be. 😆💜 Great video!
When hubby and I designed our house I told my architect we HAVE to have a mini fridge in our bathroom. He looked at me all strange and shocked but I got one. LOVE storing certain serums and eye masks. But the favorite product is Clinique Moisture Surge Face Spray. Never without a bottle in the fridge, purse and kitchen fridge too .
Hello, I ordered a mini refrigerator for my skin care because I live with family and I just don’t want to be keeping going to stairs and grabbing my stuff out of the fridge. So I thought it be easier just to have it upstairs with me inside of my bedroom where I have access to it. I’m excited for it I’m waiting for it to come here I’ll see how I go it was but I’m excited for it I’m excited able to keep some my skin care products out of the heat because my bedroom gets pretty hot in the summertime. So I can all I can say is I’m waiting for mine and I’ll let you know how it goes.😊
Actually this is really beneficial not just sensory wise. A lot of more natural products can have increased longevity. (Think brands like LUSH) Often we're storing skincare in bathrooms which isn't ideal due to hot, moist air often circulating. Also many foundations can have increased longevity when stored in the fridge. Thanks for the review Emily!
I do a lot of DIY skincare and it's hard to keep it from going off at room temp in the summer. I need this, but then the money I save in doing DIY skincare, will be spent on the fridge. I could see using the heat for cream based products. In MN all my cream products are really hard to warm up to be easy to use in the winter.
I live in the place where it is hot for most of the year. I have been keeping my lipsticks, some cream in fridge for years. It prevents them from melting... Getting bad... And now I saw this fridge...
I read it immediately, right after hitting the thumbs up button for the video. I always know that Emily’s content is deserving of one! And those quotes and her random thoughts have continued to be a great source for introspection and inspiration.
I joked to my husband that I needed a fridge for my skincare and he looked at me like I was crazy 😂💕
Mine too lol - he says I really need some more sh*t on my vanity!
Same my husband was like stop being gullible 😒
I told my hubs about this while standing next to his beer fridge. Ha!!
My mom used to buy the enormous jar of Estée Lauder somethingorother moisturizert (like $400!!!!), and she would keep the jar in the fridge and decant a little bit into a tiny jar as she used it.
Haha same but he also asked me how much is costs, like he was genuinely curious to know 😂
I’m in my 30’s, I don’t have a daughter, and I’m so temped to go out and by this to appease my need for Barbie/tea party/ make believe nostalgia.
I feel like I need a make up fridge because it’s so small and cute!
Isn’t everything a million times cuter when it’s smaller?!
Kristen Potts absolutely!
Yes!!!
Especially babies!!!
We really appreciate that! Thank you for your kind words :)
YES!!!!!
Yaassss I love everything mini and tiny 🤣 I love those tiny tobacco bottles
I have small compartment in our fridge for my skincare. It's the prettiest section
I’m afraid my granddaughters would carry that cute lil fridge right up to the playroom 😁
My granddaughter would absolutely think this was hers. Hahaha.
Perfect for Barbie!
😂😂😂😂😂
I would totally buy this for a playroom!! Well, maybe put it on a grandparents list 😂😂

In the summer I keep a lot of sheet masks in the fridge, when I've been outdoors in the heat and humidity, a cold cucumber mask feels AMAZING!!
You are so smart to start taking care of your skin now, Emily. I use my kitchen fridge to store my vitamin c, + foundations, and lip glosses I like, but not currently using. I know I would pick the pink if I bought a mini fridge. Enjoyed. Blessings, and love...MaryEllen
P.S. 4 sunny days in a row, whoopee!!
MaryEllen After 60 You are so sweet. I love seeing your positive comments on all of Emily’s videos!
We are on a weather roll here, MaryEllen! :) I never considered keeping glosses refrigerated- might need to try that!!
This would be great if you travel in a car for road trips, to plug into car keep makeup from melting.
Use a freezer bag for your make up when traveling. I've had a few lipsticks melt and lotions separate. Get a small one you can roll up.
I love the concept of this video, it’s new and no one is talking about it. You might also need to expand to hair care. If you use the Briogeo charcoal shampoo they recommend keeping it refrigerated for freshness since they don’t use fillers or preservatives. I haven’t needed to yet but the directions say if it separates or loses it’s jelly texture to refrigerate it.
I've been storing some makeup and skincare for years in my fridge because I live in very hot weather but it never occured to me to get a cute little fridge. I feel like I need one now 💕
I’ve been using a mini fridge for my skin care, some makeup, setting spray/primer sprays and of course water for at least 10 years. I keep my Jade and other rollers/tools in it too
When I saw it on Facebook I decided I really wanted it, but thank you for talking about Amazon as an option. I think I’m going to look there.
I have a Cooluli one in fuchsia and I'm pretty obsessed with it! I have it in the office, sometimes I stick a mist in there just to refresh during the day. I love that I can plug it into the car and head to the beach with it too. I am actually thinking of gifting it to everyone and getting one for myself at home.
thanks for sharing!! I've definitely seen great feedback for that kind!
Whaaaaaa? You can plug it in the car?? I’m addicted to mists.... I drive for work & im in the car everyday! :P thanks for this tip! This is the kind of gold nuggets I love to find in comments sections ;P they can sometimes be life changing hehe
Emily Noel oooh please maybe do another test review for this one??
@@bodybalancer yes! It's the best. I can warm my tea, chill my fruits and my lip balm. And if you keep peppermint tea bags in the door shelf, it's a wonderful scent every time you open it.
I told my husband that nothing but a makeup fridge will do for my birthday. I think that I have him convinced..
Yes! Excited! Definitely "extra", but oh so cute! Thank you for the dupes too, I had no idea these micro fridges were a thing. I don't know what skincare you would want to keep warm, but nice to know you could throw in a Hot Pocket next your masks...lol! How many parents are stuck with a dorm room fridge after 4 years (we rented)? Great to repurpose that! The tiny fridge might be good for liquid medicines too. Have a great day Emily! 💖
There were several moments in this video where I thought you looked soo much like your sister!! Not sure if it’s the shade of lipstick or the hair or whatever, but it’s really precious! You’re both beautiful ❤️❤️
I almost forgot you're from the Midwest until you said "pop". 😄
I got my skincare fridge about a year ago. I’ve had a couple and my fav right now is from Amazon by Cooluli. Super! Keep the back fan away from the wall about 3” for good air flow. Works so well.
I can DEFINITELY see Emily enjoying one of these! It’s cute & quite a fitting addition to her entire makeup persona, if that’s the correct word. I love it😊💜.
Looks like this was a lot of fun For you. ❤️I don’t like cooling stuff so this is a pass for me but I do keep my rosehip oil in the fridge which I was told keeps it good longer 😉
I can understand not wanting to put your products in your regular refrigerator simply because of odors leaking potentially (not likely, but it's possible). The fridge is adorable regardless
I have thought about getting one for upstairs for several reasons, the fist one was most of the face masks from Lush require refrigeration. Having them in my big frig I forget I have them. Then the reasons you give are all great. I also want to keep hubby's insulin in it as well, which would keep it upstairs rather than in the kitchen. Gotta look into getting one now that my beauty room is nearly done. :)
My hubby bought me that exact fridge ($20 though) for keeping my breastmilk cold after I pump at work. Now I know what to use it for when I'm done with that lol.
What a neat idea! I didn’t know there was such a thing in the marketplace. I’ve often wanted to store beauty products in the fridge, like eye gel for example, but trekking downstairs to the kitchen just wasn’t practical. Glad you are taking time to pamper yourself as you deserve it. 🤗
I use my small fridge on my bathroom counter for my skincare. I buy my oils in large sizes and put them in small dark bottles and the remainder in my large fridge. I have plastic containers from Dollar Tree I label and keep those in my big fridge. I pull out what I need, but my every night skincare I keep in my small fridge.
I’ve been keeping my AM eye cream next to the butter in the fridge for years! Feels great & helps de-puff faster
I have been using a regular sized refrigerator and designating a shelf for make up and skincare for about 20 years. I like to buy my favorite lipsticks and keep one or 2 in reserve in case they are discontinued. Also it will keep skincare fresher if I buy 2 or 3 at a time on sale or as a deal. Perfumes too especially if you like a rare or discontinued one and there is an opportunity to stock up. Thanks
I don't have a fancy little dedicated fridge but I do have a shelf (or two) in the door of my kitchen fridge full of perfumes, makeup & skin care and have done for more than 20 years. I live in a hot climate and it just prevents the heat from affecting the freshness & longevity of the ingredients, plus yep it feels great on our hot days and nights. Along similar lines, I have a couple of teaspoons I keep in the freezer ice tray for depuffing the eyes, and before sharpening any eye, lip & brow pencils they go in there for 10-20 minutes (you get a nice firm sharp point quick & easy every time).
My husband and I live 20 minutes from "town" (we wanted to live on a large plot of land), so when I go shopping... I usually go to several stores, getting groceries last. I could see using this in the car to put products in that would be affected by the sun. I live in the southern part of the US where the temperatures are very high in the summer. Inside the car gets even hotter the longer it sits in a parking lot😎
Also, when my boys were in school and we had after school activities, I always brought a small cooler containing drinks and healthy snacks in the car. (trying to avoid the fast food drive throughs!) This would work well for that! Now I could use it for grandchildren LOL!
This is definitely pretty extra, but I definitely want one! I have a lovely butterfly rash that tends to radiate a decent amount of heat. Having my products nice and chilled would be so amazing when it's flared!
A small wine cooler works too. Its temperature control. I use one. And inside I put a spice rack to maximize the space and organize it.
I bought my son a micro fridge for Christmas for 20 bucks at Walmart. My walmart doesnt usually carry that in store. Its red and looks retro 1950s. He keeps soda cans in his. It doesnt have space on the door and the shelf is plastic but its essentially the same thing. It also heats, has a car cord for travel. Has a fan that I can hear faintly. cute.
So adorable; love the pink (my fav color)! I figure if my husband can have his special fridge in his 'man cave', then I can purchase a feminine fridge for a few pampering products. Thanks for the info on chilling some special facial/spa products as long as it doesn't break down ingredients. I guess it is important to read product info.
I also saw this on Instagram and have wanted one ever since. It is the "mini" size that draws me to this, can't resist anything mini!! I think the cooling feeling would be especially nice in the summer.
I have a mini fridge at my work desk that looks exactly like this and it was $20 from Wal-mart. Same concept, holds a 6 pack, cheaper price.
"Got a little casserole you want to take to the pot luck? Pop it in the fridge" me laughing so hard abt yr comment 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 you crack me up, Em!! 😅😅😅 ROFL
For the past ten years I've dedicated a small fridge (a proper one not the micro type) just to keep my makeup such as nail polish, lipsticks, liquid foundations, toners, facial mists and skin care.. I have found that this method prolongs the life of the products. I shop my (fridge) once a week to rotate and enjoy what I have.
living in Australia this is a must my fridge is full of my make-up especially lipsticks and balms which tend to melt to liquid in our 40 degree+ temps (100+ in US temps) during summer, if it isn't a powder it is in the fridge at my place that is why I have a little bar fridge for my water and makeup, that is cute but way to small for my stuff
🙈🙉 I have held off not purchasing these cute little fidges forever lol but now watching Emilys video has tempteted me to order one! Actually just ordered 2😳 haha 😂 why or why did I need to order two?!?!😱😣😲😩
One for daytime skin care and a drink, and one for nighttime skin care and another drink 😆
What a great idea for a guest bedroom, along with the mini Keurig! Not for makeup - just for milk/cream/water, etc.
I've had a mini fridge in my bedroom for years and have always stored my skincare items in it. The mists in the summer are amazing!
This is very cool ! My daughter used to use a little hello kitty fridge in her room. I think I’m gonna go see where it is!❤️
I honestly really do need one (or two, lol) of these. I use a lot of products from small indie shops that use minimal preservatives. Plus I do a bunch of DIY products and have so many oils, etc. The whole bottom of my fridge is taken up with these things and it’s forever growing. So glad that you did this video.
Thanks, gorgeous🍃🌸.
Emily, you're the only person on TH-cam that can make a fridge sound so interesting! ❤️
I have a micro fridge and I dearly love it. Is it necessary? No. Do I deserve this small luxury? Of course I do!!!
Well, sounds like you need one in the makeup room as well 💖🤣🥰🥳🤩
The girly colors are cute, but I have had mine for over a year and it is white by Chefman and cost half the price of yours, and I am happy with it. I do like to keep some of my serums in it, especially Vitamin C products.
I would totally put a little snack in there
Hi Emily, u can use the hot feature for something like those hot caps that are meant to out over a deep conditioner or hair mask. Idk if it would heat up enough, or if u even use those type of things. But I suppose anyone in the comments can do that if they have the fridge or plan on getting one. I think they're adorable.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I have limited space in my bathroom BUT I want to try out the chilled products. I’m going to get a plastic shoe box and put my skin care in it. I live in Arizona. Chilled products could be a great thing in summer. The fridge is adorable if I had the space I would totally get one!
I have the same exact fridge only it's a frigidaire brand and all pink. I was a bit disappointed as it's not meant to keep it on all the time. Its basically a plug-in cooler and I already had one of those for my car. Mine came with warnings saying you have to clean out the air vent area in the back before your turn it on each time because it's a major fire hazard.
There have been a few times during hot weather when my eye pencils have been too soft to use, so I would need to keep them in my fridge. Having a little makeup fridge right next to the rest of my makeup would be a bonus but not entirely necessary.
I put my goodies in a plastic Dollar Tree basket and put them in the kitchen frig but it's such a hassle retrieving them, using them and then returning them back to the kitchen. I've been seriously considering one but will go with one of the Amazon brands. Thanks for the review Emily !!! xo p
I have the Cooluli one. My experience seems to be exactly the same as yours, so I recommend it! It is definitely extra, but it’s also a small luxury all things considered, and I’m pretty pleased with it! :)
Speaking of Glossier Moon Mask, I’d love for you to do a brand overview on them! I know they’re not necessarily your aesthetic, but you have great judgement on products.
Years ago when I moved to Phoenix my new neighbor came by. She said keep your makeup in the fridge. Never looked back.
Your the first person to put me on to the makeup fridge... had no idea other youtubers were refrigerating all their skincare, but it sounds smart to me. I keep undereye gel masks and eye cream in with the milk and bbq sauce myself for the time being.
This is such a great idea! Especially with the warm weather coming. Best feeling to spritz a refreshing face mist when you have been out in the heat! I usually store in fridge but it isn't as pleasing spraying something that smells like garlic on your face 😅
My friend uses hers to keep her husband's insulin in so it comes in handy for medicine too! :)
This would probably be good for the more natural beauty products that have a short shelf life! Maybe some aleo vera for the summertime also!!
Love it when you include a clip of your husband’s take on your products! Sounds like my husband; supportive & funny without trying to be. 😆💜 Great video!
When hubby and I designed our house I told my architect we HAVE to have a mini fridge in our bathroom. He looked at me all strange and shocked but I got one. LOVE storing certain serums and eye masks. But the favorite product is Clinique Moisture Surge Face Spray. Never without a bottle in the fridge, purse and kitchen fridge too .
Hello, I ordered a mini refrigerator for my skin care because I live with family and I just don’t want to be keeping going to stairs and grabbing my stuff out of the fridge. So I thought it be easier just to have it upstairs with me inside of my bedroom where I have access to it.
I’m excited for it I’m waiting for it to come here I’ll see how I go it was but I’m excited for it I’m excited able to keep some my skin care products out of the heat because my bedroom gets pretty hot in the summertime. So I can all I can say is I’m waiting for mine and I’ll let you know how it goes.😊
Actually this is really beneficial not just sensory wise. A lot of more natural products can have increased longevity. (Think brands like LUSH) Often we're storing skincare in bathrooms which isn't ideal due to hot, moist air often circulating. Also many foundations can have increased longevity when stored in the fridge. Thanks for the review Emily!
My husband bought me a humidor... Which is perfect for keeping a temp/humidity perfect for makeup and skincare. I love it.
Tyler is a good sport 😂 I think it would be fun to watch you put that skincare on him lol
I do a lot of DIY skincare and it's hard to keep it from going off at room temp in the summer. I need this, but then the money I save in doing DIY skincare, will be spent on the fridge. I could see using the heat for cream based products. In MN all my cream products are really hard to warm up to be easy to use in the winter.
I live in the place where it is hot for most of the year. I have been keeping my lipsticks, some cream in fridge for years. It prevents them from melting... Getting bad... And now I saw this fridge...
I love your random thoughts in the description box. I sure hope people take the time to read all the way through. 👩🏻💜
I read it immediately, right after hitting the thumbs up button for the video. I always know that Emily’s content is deserving of one! And those quotes and her random thoughts have continued to be a great source for introspection and inspiration.
