 Hey guys, it's Monica. Thank you so much for joining me I'm gonna share with you just a few empties that I have and you know, mainly do a little bit of a chit-chat type of a video since my last video I Had come on and I had sort of given you an update on my ear surgery And how I was doing and I said it was gonna get back and do a video that weekend and I didn't I kind of took a turn For the worst. I just kind of I don't know if I just got into a funk more or less But I found the recovery of my ear surgery to be a bit more complex than I thought it would be so I had a high level of pain and I also had a high level of Discomfort, you know, just in general of discomfort. So they did give me pain pills But I didn't want to really take them that much. So I didn't want to you know, end up taking them all the time So I didn't do that but today it'll be It'll be this coming Wednesday. I'm filming this on a Monday Two days from now it will be a week and the doctor had said I would be it'd be ten days So I am feeling much better But as I tried to describe to Babs who had reached out to me and she left me this this long message Well, you know that's right. She's always long-winded, but she left me this message and We inches and so we were talking back and forth voice message on FaceTime and As I was trying to explain to her that it wasn't quite feeling me yet And I said the same thing to both Sheila Marlene and to Natalie the beauty dover in a message to the three of them I'm almost me, but I'm not quite me yet. So I don't quite know how to explain that I think I think the surgery just kicked my butt more so than I thought so That was kind of interesting and I still haven't heard for my most surgery yet I'm kind of like, oh my gosh, I'm taking so much time off from work I worked a half a day today this afternoon. I took it off did a couple of things And then I mean I would do some stuff and then go back down in the couch and do some stuff go back down in the couch it's kind of like I Can't seem to find Monica yet. He was like this sort of broken me. I want the real me So anyways, long story short. I a Couple of products don't want to mention I have noticed and many of you probably have noticed this as well as as you get older Your brows just kind of disappear and my brows have never been perfect Some of you said I should go have them shaved I should have them lifted up higher and you know have the Tattoos and all that and I thought about that, but it's just never done it But my brows themselves even though I use my I use my my eyelash serum blank eyelash serum on my eyelashes every now and then I would put it on my brows But it would never really consistent So I saw this on the Octoly network and I said if they prove me I'm going to give this a whirl and this is the Grandi brow and it is from from Grandi cosmetics and I'm looking forward to this. This is supposed to be a brow Enhancing serum So I'm going to use this. I'm going to take a picture of my brows without any brow product on which right now I have and And I'm going to start using this as directed so this was again gifted to me by a the Octoly network from a Grandi cosmetics and I'm actually excited because if I can get some filling Fill in in the sparse of parts of my brows that are very very sparse have not a lot of hair I think that would be really awesome I do use a couple of different brow products to kind of darken my brows because they're very very blonde But still even so, you know, I'm never really happy with them So I'm super looking forward to this I'll definitely report back on it after I've used it and show you the before and afters and things like that I'm just like super super check out. I finally I finished two two mascara's and Both of them, of course, you know, I happen to really love love the essence lash princess This is the the one in black and purple. This is the one that works the best for me. I already have my replacement I tend to toss these maybe sooner than some of you well only because I think they're so affordable I don't need to keep one for six weeks. It probably would be fine for six weeks But I don't want to keep it for six weeks. So toss that got rid of it finished up my peaches classic Cleanser I have one that I bought and I've also labeled it. I kind of label when I start these. So this was January 26th of 2021 and I think I've shown this a couple of times and when it was near empty But it's finally bone-dry empty ready to be tossed. I have bought the replacement. I I absolutely love the peaches skin care products the cleanser. I Love the exfoliator. I I love how clean my skin is with this I've not tried a lot of the other products. I I probably would I mean I do have the vitamin C. I have their the vinegar toner that I use I really like that. There's a lot of peaches products that I really like But haven't used all of it and so I'm not gonna vouch for all of it But I will tell you the system that I use to clean my skin has been Awesome, I really really like it. I have finished the equate Hair regrowth treatments, you know, I was I was contacted by One of the larger companies that sell the hats the helmets that you put on for hair We growth you might have seen a number of Youtubers Review that product and talk about that product anyways They reached out to me and asked me if I would be interested in it and I I said absolutely because I do by the way have dramatically thinning hair and I would be the perfect candidate to actually test this on and And so we'd love that opportunity to use it and Share it with my subscribers because a lot of women that watch me also have hair issues as well so So it's really super excited. I thought wow, this is awesome. They fell off the face of the earth I don't know what to make of it I don't know if they fell off the face of the earth because I said I really have thinning hair as supposed to Some of the women that have reviewed it and their hair in my opinion is not thinning hair I mean, they may have a little bit receding hair. There might be some lighter spots But it's not thinning hair the way I have thinning hair or the way I consider thinning hair to be So maybe I scared them off. So I'm kind of bummed that they disappeared every actually After the first contact I waited weeks. I Responded I waited weeks and didn't hear anything. I thought well Maybe my response went into the junk mail. So I I sent him a message saying just in case I Am interested in reviewing. I think I would be a perfect candidate to review your product and share it with my subscribers I'd love the opportunity. Thank you for offering it Nothing nada nada nada Zippa. So Yeah, so I don't know what to make of it if they do reach out to me I'll obviously grab it and use it But I think maybe they were concerned that I had maybe too much hair loss or too much thinning hair So yeah equate. I use this. I use ladies Rogaine I use all of the potions and drops and everything I can so this is empty I do have a replacement. I do like it. I have finished The skin perfecting daily veil city beauty. This was sent to me complimentary Quite a while ago. I get a lot of city beauty products that have sent to me complimentary And I really I like I like a lot of the city beauty products. I probably would not buy this again I found this to be it does have the sunscreen the broad spectrum daily veil protecting I found on my skin. I think my skin was too dry for this to really to really justice so The other thing I want to talk to you about is my dry eye. I Have been on that and you guys know you've been with me when I couldn't even look at my lights without you know Blinking or crying or tearing up or whatever. It's been really awful But I have gone through a couple of different prescriptions and different drops and all that well in January my eye doctor Subscribed eye drops and my co-pay was over five hundred dollars And it was because I had not met my deductible and all that and I was like heaven and horror and I'm like, oh my gosh So I said, oh my gosh, do I do I really really want to do this? It's reticis. I can never pronounce it Because it was the co-pay was crazy expensive the doctor had given me I don't want to open it because the doctor had given me a couple of packages of samples So I thought now Like the bullet and get it. I had used the samples. They seem to Have made a difference. I also had samples of an other eye Drops and that didn't seem to make a difference. So this I've been using Religiously twice a day in the morning and in the evening and then overnight Sometimes I will at night sometimes a couple of times it depends if I wake up. I'll wear a heated eye mask That that I've actually reviewed because it's like really awesome I have it plugged in by my bed and I put it on and that makes a big difference so between these drops my heated eye mask and Then just the regular drops that I might go throughout the day my eye feels knock on wood my eye feels like It used to you know, it just I said to Jay the other day. I said I cannot believe I said I'm looking at my eye It looks clear. I can open my eye. I can I can look into the sun I cannot believe how good my eye feels. So this stuff is Tremendously expensive I'm supposed to put one drop in both eyes while I only have one affected eye so I've only been using the one eye and Use it twice daily when I go for my follow-up. I've got a follow-up visit in a couple of weeks for this I am going to mention another condition that I want him to look at that Sheila simply Sheila had Told me about so I'm gonna talk to him about that but so far guys The $500 hurts to spend it And especially if it doesn't work, right? Then it really hurts, but if it works I'll spend it as long as I can I can I can you know, now that's a copay next time I order it. It'll probably be less But as long as I can and it works like this, I'm gonna do whatever I can to afford the medication and What a difference. I almost feel like my eyes are back to normal Not going away, right? I almost feel that way, but anyways on my head today. This is a hairpiece that I have Sorry you want to grab it? This is beltress. I'm just gonna mention it because I talked about you know the hat the helmet treatment that That you could get for hairy growth. Well, I am wearing a topper and this is beltress This is what they call top volume six It is a volume topper so that it does have some waves and textures and this is in the color brown sugar sweet cream Which is really super close to my bio hair now my bio here's a little bit longer than I normally wear it but When I go I'll probably have my hair cut and this six inch top or will will actually Work out perfectly. So this was sent to me complimentary from week studio. I'm gonna do a quick spin Just because I know some of you will be interested and some of you won't but This was sent to me complimentary from week studio one. I have done a review on this on their channel Whichever one gets published first, I'll link it so that you know But this is actually pretty cool Now I am wearing this all the way down on my forehead because it has a lace front Where normally when I wear my toppers and wear my toppers further back and I have my own bio hair pulled on the front For me to do this with this topper I would have to darken my bio hair a little bit with with You know, probably with a fill powder which I can do easy enough Because my bio bangs are a lot lighter than the lace front section of this So brown sugar sweet cream heat-friendly fibers beltress lace front monotop six inch volume topper I Think it looks really cool.
