[SuperSugarbubble]

Have u tried sigma brushes? i hear alot about them but i'm not sure about the quality

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@SuperSugarbubble Yep, love their kabuki line x

[SuperSugarbubble]

for spots Mario Badescu drying lotin is fab, its kinda works the same way as the origins spot treatment but it doesnt make your skin dry even though its called drying lotion lol

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@SuperSugarbubble Thanks for the rec :) x

[SuperSugarbubble]

I must admit your skin looks glowing! i'd go down to once a day.... x

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@SuperSugarbubble Thanks hun! x

@anthrogirl123 I agree! x

[tollinja]

I love your subtle sense of humour (i.e. when commenting on the end of your benefit pencil). It's wonderful, just like you! xx

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@tollinja haha thanks hun! x

[TheMrblabla22]

Hey im having a few issues getting onto your blog its been like this for me for about a week now :-/

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@TheMrblabla22 Should be ok, but we are still in the process of sorting things out x

[laramoore]

I love that you're one of the few beauty bloggers that haven't become swayed by sponsorship by a certain brand! Please keep doing what you're doing, I love your videos.

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@laramoore Aw thanks hun! x

[glampurpleglitter]

My iPad ls my world..does that sound sad? I found a great dupe for MAC Hue, is by Avon and its called Pout..it's really lovely!

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@glampurpleglitter Thanks for the tip! x

[makeuptimeD]

Very pretty !

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@makeuptimeD Thanks x

[Bufi9o]

Hey Anna, what's your job? You always talk about it but i've never understood what it is?

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@Bufi9o Video coming soon! x

[Iconicc232]

"They make a good clicky noise when you put them on a table" - I'm sold! Haha, my nails have been awful and haven't stopped flaking all winter, might have to treat them to this soon. Would really appreciate a career-y based video of yours if you do end up making one! :) xx

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@Iconicc232 Haha they do! x

[paigelouise26]

I received my Clarisonic for Christmas also, and I've never had like a major 'purging stage' but I do feel like it's a bit much to use morning and night as I feel it's a bit harsh on the skin, but I am considering using it twice a day and switching my brush head to the sensitive to see if it makes any difference, I've also just been using the Clarisonic Refreshing Gel Cleanser in the morning but I must try the Origin's one too!

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@paigelouise26 Yes I have the sensitive brush head and it feels lovely on the skin x

[amberjsmith]

How are you getting on with the Check and Balances cleanser?

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@amberjsmith Yes I'm liking it so far! x

[94Marwa]

What's your instagram? :)

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@94Marwa ViviannaMakeup x

[luuucccyyyy]

Hey Anna what course at uni did you do? xxx

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@luuucccyyyy Psychology :) x

[luuucccyyyy]

@ViviannaDoesMakeup ooo same as me! I'm revising right now :(

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@luuucccyyyy Oh no, hope it goes well! x

[LauraLovesBeautyX]

im intrigues by that hair conditioner, may have to look into that, espcecially is you are saying you could see the difference straight away. glad the OPI nails has worked out for you as it is expensive, im trying out LKeighton Deny, but Sally Hansen works a treat for me.

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@LauraLovesBeautyX Ooo might have to give that a go - although the OPI is working really well at the moment x

[TheBeautyBibleVlog]

I love my clarisonic too. I've just passed the purging stage. And I use it with my Checks and Balances too! Its a fab cleanser. I jus use mine one a day at night because I feel like its really exfoliating my skin too which I wouldn't want to do twice. I use the spot remover as well! I love Origins skincare. its my all time favourite skincare brand

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@TheBeautyBibleVlog Yes I think once a day in the evening is probably perfect :) x

[211Rainbow]

How have you been getting on with the Beauty Flash Balm? xx

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@211Rainbow In all honesty, I haven't been using it that much! x

[211Rainbow]

@ViviannaDoesMakeup Haha, I was hoping that it would do more for you than it does for me! I'm 20, so I think our skins might be too young for this. xx

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@211Rainbow Yes that might be the case! x

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@211Rainbow In all honesty, I haven't been using it that much! x

[latbah80]

would recommend easing into the twice a day routine with the clarosnic? So like start with once every few days, then once a day then twice a day? would that be better do you think? I love your videos! you are entirely to blame for my lack of funds! You make everything sound so good. :)

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@latbah80 Haha sorry hun, yes that may be a good idea. Guess it's just best to see what your skin likes :) x

[dbayf]

hey still can't see your blog posts and I'm viewing it on my laptop not a handheld device.

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@dbayf I don't think it's working on firefox, but should be ok on other internet browsers. Still in the process of sorting everything out x

[dbayf]

@ViviannaDoesMakeup Thanks a million for response - I;m viewing it on firefox alright so no hassle.

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@dbayf Phew! x

[pinkabuki]

Does the face tanner come off quicker now that you're using a clarisonic everyday?

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@pinkabuki Yes it does! x

[AlyaBK94]

I recently discovered your videos and i am loving them! You have become one of my favourite beauty girls on youtube

Love all the way from the middle east (kuwait) x

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@AlyaBK94 Aw thanks hun! x

[Alicia76ful]

The blush looks so good on you. Beautiful!!! ;)

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@Alicia76ful Thanks! x

[xoxoLeony]

You forgot to link your Instagram girl! Do it! Do it! ;)

Those blushes look amazing. And I have the YSL Tea Rose lipstick but rarely wear it becaue the scent/taste drives me nuts! Ick.

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@xoxoLeony It's just ViviannaMakeup, search it ;) xx

[xparisxparis]

ahh your skin is gorgeous here! tip on the brows.. try growing them in towards the front a lil more, it'll make your nose and face appear slimmer :) ... (and just reading that back it sounds totally rude aha but its not i promise, im just a wee bit obsessed with brows!) great vid as always!

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@xparisxparis Thanks hun! x

[superara1]

i wish those tarte clay blushers were available here, not fair lol. i have the jemma kidd one and i have never thought once the design looked like a swastika like one commenter said, how ridiculous.x

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@superara1 Me too! They are such wicked blushes, hopefully they come over here soon! x

[oohsexypenguin]

I'm obsessed with my iPad as well! Glad you have one for your commute. Great video, as always! :)

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@oohsexypenguin Thanks hun! x

[snowbunniehoney]

[magui676]

Can you do a review of the Chantecaille Just Skin tinted moisturizer? I saw in the description box that you are wearing it, and I'm really curious about how you like it :)

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@magui676 Put up a mini review on the blog, but a proper one will be up soon x

[Andy25982]

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@Andy25982 Thanks hun! x

[Birkinbag09]

Jasmine xx

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@Birkinbag09 Thanks for the recommendation hun! x

[lexiewoolf1]

Cannot wait to see the next video on your job etc xx

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@lexiewoolf1 Thanks, should be up soon! x

[SianShutterbug]

i wanted to buy this case for my ipad but it's kind of a shared purchase with my boyfriend and he said the pink was a no go!! booo. quite jealous you have it on 3g tariff, i just have plain and simple wifi, how boring! i use the clarins oil, i have oily combination skin as well & i agree oils are good when used correctly! x

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@SianShutterbug Haha oh no! Nice to see another oil lover! x

[Neelia476]

I've used my clarisonic Mia at night after wiping my makeup off with a wipe since I got it 1.5 yrs ago. I don't use it in the morning. This has worked well for me, I guess it depends on how your skin reacts. I don't see a reason to use it in the morning though.

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@Neelia476 Might just have to use it in the evenings I think x

[mbarda]

You shouldn't really be using it twice a day. Maybe 3 days a week at the most because it is an exfoliator. Harsher to your skin if used that frequently. Just what my doctor told me recently

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@mbarda I will tone it down in the future x

[xxAngelDustxx]

oh man this video was poppin'. I sure was popping popcorn to this video, I love poppin comments everywhere. Make sure you pop an answer later!

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@therealcatgirl Thanks! x

[livingglam11]

how long does the tan last for with the clarins stuff? x

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@livingglam11 Not long, it's more of a gradual tanner so I reapply every 3 days or so x

[torismakeup]

You remind me of the girl from neds declassified .. Your gorgeous!

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

[xxfashionpassionxx]

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@xxfashionpassionxx Soon :)

[annac42]

I think you may have a little obsession with adding '-esque' to the end of stuff :D haha xx

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@annac42 I do! x

[Lydiakx]

the word 'Splodge' should be used so much more!

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@Lydiakx I agree! x

[teambrice]

I was using my clarisonic twice a day and my skin started to feel like it was getting a little bit dry, and I know some people say long term twice a day is a bit abrasive. I personal feel like once a day is enough and now I have been using nearly 2 months I am really starting seeing the benefits! xx

[ViviannaDoesMakeup]

@teambrice Definitely going to step it down a notch now ;) xx

[legseleven7]

I love your channel. Thats so cool the way u gave us a quick update on your Mia. I love how honest you are and also how I can tell you really love what you're doing and know what you're talking about. You are awesome chick, seriously.

[TheSaintlydevilish]

So I'm now getting the odd spot and looking pale.. Ultra attractive, suffering to make to make others beautiful..I'm hoping to get waxed this week on legs.. so damn hairy.. and wanting to get back to clarisonic xx
