 good morning everybody welcome to another vlog this is what we're currently working with at the moment it's probably hard to tell but um i just i'm in need of a glow up things are just not good in the old brain at the moment that has kind of resulted in me avoiding responsibilities not drinking enough water not taking care of my body laying and rotting on the couch over consuming social media etc and sometimes when i take care of myself from the outside i feel better on the inside so we're gonna you know work on that today we have a very busy day if you can hear construction in the background i'm so sorry it's literally when one construction site ends like directly next to my house another one begins it's fine but yeah here is what we're working with but before we get into the the glow up and just kind of getting my life together um we did have our friends over the other night for the tokyo vice finale and i got a couple clips from that so i'll show you okay it's like 10 p.m because um we have already finished our show our friends just left to go home but the tokyo vice season perhaps series it's not a hundred percent sure yet finale was so good this show is incredible and has become like one of my favorite shows all of the actors were amazing everything was so satisfying like i think it's so rare for a season to wrap up and for it to feel like okay i'm satisfied with all of this i feel like everybody got what you wanted them to get you know one way or the other and it was i cannot recommend this show enough if you have a hbo max it is so entertaining it's so good it's like loosely based on a true story we were sitting here with our friends screaming like literally screaming it was so good i can't even begin to tell you how good this show is so if you do one thing if you're interested in anything related to japan at all whatsoever watch this show it's phenomenal the cast is incredible the writing is really good i have fallen in love with all of the characters well not all of them but most of them and they're incredible you have to watch it it's so good i'm so happy i'm going to bed now because it's like 10 p.m on a sunday night but wow wow that was incredible so okay back to present day back to this morning this is this is where we're at it's honestly not bad but there's just things like you know um there's just things that need attention so first things first we're gonna jump in the shower i wish i could work out i am two weeks out from my brow appointment it has officially been two weeks today and they look fantastic but they're still healing i don't know if it's because i'm anemic and it takes a little bit longer for that but either way i'm gonna take just a couple more days before i exercise because i really don't want to mess up the healing process and the pigment but i gotta wash my hair i want to fake tan i want to put on my cute little diy lash extensions i want to put on a cute outfit and i want to film some videos and feel like i'm ahead because that's when i always feel the best and obviously this just can't go on any longer it just simply can't so let's jump in the shower i'll do everyone a favor jump scare shower i feel so much better already i don't know what it is but when i'm having bad mental health days or just i'm not feeling 100 myself i like don't want to shower i don't really want to take care of myself and i mean i took a shower late last night like a body shower but i needed to do like all of it you know wash my hair shave scrub all of the above so that feels good i'm gonna put on some makeup um this is like one of the first times i'm actually putting on makeup since getting my brows done they're not fully fully healed yet like i said it is the two week mark but i'm just being careful i'm just being careful after i got on the shower i did a quick fake tan i did a self tan that i don't recommend honestly so don't buy that um i bought it based off of a recommendation and not great but that's all i have right now i'm waiting on some other ones to come in so i did that one um i also did this teeth whitening strip thing for the first time i really wanted to get my teeth professionally whitened but i heard horror stories about it so i'm gonna just try like that home thing and i don't have any final reviews on this yet because it was literally my first time using it but we will see how it goes so i used those i'm gonna try to use those every day for the next two weeks and see what happens i have sensitive teeth like extremely sensitive teeth so i will definitely let you know how that goes so now i'm just going to finish up my makeup put on my little diy at home lash extensions which these are the ones that i use by the way these are by flutter habit and they're called the sweet heart i also use their glue and it works great so it's called made for this uh one of my friends recommended one of my friends from back home in arizona recommended this to me like a year ago and i just like doing this because it literally takes me five minutes i do it once a week like they last the entire week i wash my face as normal do my makeup as normal and it's just nice to do it once and then have them last two weeks so i usually do that on like sunday nights mondays or occasionally if i need to like redo them if one goes wonky or whatever so let me put on like the rest of my eye makeup really quick and then i'll show you how i apply them i think i've shown it in a video before but that was a while ago and just in case anyone's curious all right so here is the exact process that i do i start out this isn't necessary i just like have it for extra hold this is the lashify bonded with charco flex uh lash glue and you actually put this on your lashes but i just put it at the very very base of my lashes i don't like run it through like i would a mascara so i literally just touch it like this because the lashes go at the base of your lash line underneath your top lash line if that makes sense so i just put that on wait for it to get tacky and then it's just kind of like an extra layer of glue and protection and i don't know if this helps hold it on longer but for me it's tackier than the other glue so it just helps with application and then i take my little tweezer thingies these are by lashify as well you don't need these these are incredibly expensive but i wear them like every week so it's just convenient it's just nice to have because they just go right into the shape of your lash line you know so i've already applied glue to the top of the lash and then i literally just pop it underneath but of course now that i'm filming it it's probably gonna mess up but here's what i do ready i don't know if you can see that and also my red dot on my eyes getting so much lighter thank god so what i do is i just place it underneath that's literally it then i just take the thing i flip it the other way and i just squeeze my lashes together with the false lash and like fuse them and that's it that's literally it i do it three times on each side and boom we're done so i'll show you with the next one i just peel it off of the little thingy and that's literally it boom i also wipe off the tweezers in between because they're just like blue on it and stuff and with trial and error like you've got to figure out the positioning that you like it in because sometimes it can be like a little bit too close to your eyeball and it can get a little pokey so you may need to just like move it around but basically i'm gonna do my third one and that's it for this eye you know i have these lashes on the entire week and there is the difference between the eye with the lashes and the eye with help so i think it looks nice it's not for everyone but i really like it and it's a hell of a lot cheaper and faster than eyelash extensions whoa all right i'm gonna do the other eye then i'm gonna give myself a nice little blowout and then our glow up will be complete all right got myself ready i am definitely feeling better there's just you know i'm not gonna complain about my neighbors and like the noise and stuff but there's just like there's been a lot going on lately behind the scenes and it's just it's really weighing on me and drew like it's it's starting to get pretty bad and it's i think it's also just because we've had a bad neighbor situation in the past that it's just kind of coming back up again and um i'm definitely sensitive to noise so and now drew is as well people just don't have common courtesy they really don't so anyways it's all good um but i am feeling a little bit better just like physically um so that's good i'm going to film a couple of videos and then film like a fun little bit for a main channel video that includes food so i'm very excited about that i'm gonna try like a viral recipe all right we got one video down we have like one and a half to go i have a company that i've been wanting to try for a long time that makes products that have built in bras which like that sounds like the best thing in the entire world so that'll be up soon i'm gonna film that i might have a little snack first then i'm gonna make lunch then i'm gonna film one more little thing for another video and then it's editing for the rest of the day i already feel better after filming and just getting back into my routine getting out of my head you know sometimes you just gotta get out of your own head and that's definitely something that i struggle with i spiral we'll chat about it afterwards because i've been really just like with the housing market and the rental market and just everything i've been kind of spiraling lately which i know a lot of you are relating to as well so we will chat about that but in the meantime i'm gonna make a snack we're gonna knock out this other video and then we're gonna make some lunch all right just got done filming a main channel video here's a sneak peek but it is so good from the middle it's the best part the gooey bit the cardboard is hot just smile you start chewing anywhere so good all right it's a little while later and i am just sorting through footage that i filmed today and oh my god my leg is so tan because i don't normally self tan like during the day i do it at night before i go to bed and then wash it off but it looks crazy anyways i'm gathering and sorting all the footage that i filmed today because i did some vlog stuff i filmed some main channel stuff on this camera so i'm just like separating it in all the folders that it needs to go in but yeah part of the thing that has been kind of not stressing drew an eye out but just something that we've been thinking about a lot is now that it's april we have like a month until our lease is up and we're just trying to figure out what it is that we want to do because not only is our apartment here insanely expensive but it's gonna get more expensive the rent is going to be raised like a lot to a point that it's just ridiculous and also there's just a lot of stuff like there's just constant construction it's really busy it's really loud so there's just like other cons um these are things that we could live with but it's just things that we think about so we've got to figure that out this weekend we're gonna go look at a few more places and like actually seriously start to look um just because you know i've occasionally have viewed places drew and i have occasionally viewed places but we need to get a little more serious about it to sort of see what we can get and what's out there and all that kind of stuff and i love watching like apartment hunting vlogs so there will definitely be some of those whether or not we move but the housing market and just the rental market in general is insane it's insane sometimes i feel like i should be buying a house like it's something i should be doing instead of like something i really want to do and i do have the desire to do it for sure i think this is probably pretty common for people in their 30s and even people in their 20s people of all ages honestly but the interest rates are insane if we bought drew's mom's house that she currently lives in which we almost did a couple of years ago it didn't end up working out but if we bought her house that she lives in right now we'd be paying three times her mortgage for the same house that's with putting 20 percent down i have i know someone who was looking to buy a place in LA and it was 1.5 million dollars because that's a normal price to buy like a condo and with their down payment which was like 25 percent of the house price their mortgage was going to be $10,000 a month like i'm laughing so i don't cry because it's absolutely unhinged what the actual fuck if you have i get a lot of comments that are like i live in xyz and i have a mortgage of $500 a month and i have a lot of land and i'm so happy for you genuinely like enjoy that soak it up love it that's just not the reality and you know we're our families are in arizona and we love being in california we love being so close by we love being close to our friends and anyway it's just one of those things where it is so sorry my chair is squeaking she's she's squeaky lady it's just so crazy like my childhood home that my parents lived in together i'd be paying over five times what my parents paid for that mortgage if i bought that house today but yeah i'm just blabbing for no reason it's just it's like wow it's just a lot it's a lot at the moment how are people buying houses these days i don't understand if only i were um not an infant in 1987 and i could have just been buying property instead i'd be much better off one of my favorite ways to torture myself i talked about this on instagram stories is when i go to these estate sales that i go to in LA and look at how much they paid for their house in like the 70s and then how much it would cost if i bought it now um it'll really send you down a downward spiral oh my god it's like oh it was 70 000 back then try again it's freaking four million okay that's enough this is something that drew and i talk about regularly like just how insane it is i'm like how are people affording houses i don't understand obviously they live in other places and like they have down payments and stuff like that but with these interest rates forget it i'd be paying triple what i pay and rent so looks like we're renting for the time being but anyway i'm gonna do a little bit of editing and then we will catch up later it's the next day and i've been doing a little bit of walking on my walking pad and i took a break because i got this delivery from Sephora because it's the Sephora sale that's currently happening as i'm filming this and i'm so excited i only got essentials these are actually like just i'm pretty sure all refills of things i already had except i might have gotten one new thing so i thought i would show you what i got at the Sephora sale because i don't know i don't know if i've ever shopped the Sephora sale before maybe i have i don't recall but um the first thing i got is another one of these day three in one cactus fruit three in one styling cream this is what i used to do there with my slicked back hairstyles and i got support fellow arizona girly this stuff smells unbelievable it smells so heavenly it's great for like anti-frizz as well if you don't do like slicked back hairstyles i literally almost went like this wish you could smell it it's such a staple i love their products really really good stuff they're vegan and vegetarian cruelty free with no s l s s leah's parabens phthalates synthetic colors etc yeah i love that what else i got a refill or a replacement what do you call it like i i got another one of the cosis revealer concealer because the stuff is amazing i got a little bit of a darker shade this time like last time i got like one point something and this is 2.3 it is like the creamiest nicest concealer i guess i can put it on like one of my blemishes or something so you can see i hope this is the right color i don't know but it just blends so effortlessly it's beautiful there you have it i mean i can only see on the viewfinder so i don't know if that's perfect but love this stuff i also got the full size of the charlotte tilbury pillow talk lip duo because i have the travel size drew by it for me for christmas like i don't know a year or so but i decided to treat myself to the full size because it is truly my everyday lip combo it's expensive but it is worth it so here is the pillow talk lip liner it's like a kind of mauvey pink color and then here is the pillow talk lipstick so freaking pretty there we have it oh it smells so good it has like a slight hint of vanilla and so i'm going to put this full size one in my bathroom where i get ready and then i'm going to keep the travel size one in my purse for like when i'm on the go because i still have a little bit of that and then the new thing that i got is a tower 28 lip jelly i have the color i think it's called cashew but i wanted to try this one i always see it in like the ads and stuff and this one's called xo xo i'm kind of having deja vu right now i'm like have i bought this before i don't think i have but i love this formula it's just like a pretty pink color but it's obviously going to be like a little more sheer how cute is that but yeah that is what i got at the sephora sale oh this lip liner does not want to come off she is she is long wearing i guess anyway i'm gonna get back to walking and then probably make some lunch here in a little bit it's been one of those days and i just really struggled sorry that's very loud really struggled with just like getting things done today i have not been good at that and so i feel like getting at least some steps in while i'm getting my work done has helped a lot it just helps me feel like i'm doing something else so i'm grateful for that so anyway okay i'm gonna put this stuff away and then we'll chat more later and wouldn't you know i sat down to edit this vlog and realized that i didn't end it yet again so here i am this lighting looks so green and yellow i don't know what's going on it's just normal in this room this camera has a hard time with like low light sometimes and also this apartment is very dark so it's okay but yeah i'm just sitting down now i'm actually um almost finished editing this vlog so i just need to add this little bit in i need to fix my squeaky chair because it's driving me insane the next vlog you see is going to be a weekend vlog so we're going to do some apartment hunting i don't know if that's going to be included in the weekend vlog or if i'll do like a separate you know all the apartment tours i do coming up pretty soon and then just make it like one big video and then you can kind of see and i'll like number it and that kind of thing let me know your thoughts down below but it's supposed to be like a rainy cozy weekend i was going to say because it's such a beautiful day today i really want to redo the back patio even if we only end up living here for like another month or so um i really want to like make it usable again because all this rain and stuff has really gotten to it but we are supposed to have like a very rainy cozy weekend so i might postpone that and like wait until later and just enjoy the rainy weekend make some chilly cozy up on the couch in our pajamas like that sounds amazing so we will see about that and i really want to clean out my closet in the next vlog i don't know if i'll get her onto it right away or if i'll make it into like a main channel video i need to rotate like my winter stuff for spring and summer stuff so we'll see when i end up doing that i can't remember if i said this but i'm also sitting down to send some footage to my editor for this week's main channel video i send footage to her once a week she kills it every time i'm absolutely obsessed with her so that's gonna be fun and i wrapped up all of my filming which is great i got so much done over the last like couple of days i'm feeling a lot better just like getting ahead and feeling like i've got some work like stacked up and ready to go and ready to post makes me feel my best for sure but something
