 hey guys welcome back to my channel it's your girl Reina Jinks and I am back with a new one for you guys it is the new year happy new year guys and yeah this video I'm just gonna hop right into it because it's going to be you know just a chit chat video yeah I already did this makeup look in a video that I tried to film I'm actually refilming this video so I also have quite a few new products too they're all new products that I've never filmed with filmed with before so I'm going to show be showing you all the new stuff that I got like over Christmas from gift cards and things like that so one of these things is a new facial spray that I've actually been I've tried and I really love as you see it's down to the bottom in this bottle it's the Mario Badescu facial spray without herbs and rosewater yeah this spray I use before priming makeup I use it for setting makeup and I also use it for like as a pre moisturizer so I'll spray my face and then apply my moisturizer yes I love this stuff it's so good I've actually used this primer before this is the Milani primelight and it's like an illuminating primer I like it because it blurs out the face quite a bit it gives you a nice glow as well but um yeah guys I don't know how you're 2017 went mine was pretty normal like I didn't have any significant things that happened in the year 2017 was just crazy for America as a country as you all know and I'm not very political but I try to keep up stay in the loop so I'm not lost when crap goes down you know what I'm saying pretty good at kind of staying in touch with what's going on in the state of our country and things like that because I feel like I live here and as depressing as it can be it's very important to stay informed just so you know what's going on and that you you know when you try to argue with racists and other people you don't sound ignorant you you know can back yourself up and at like you know you're talking about so that's why it's very important to stay informed I think that's something I improved on last year's staying informed I'm going to use Fenty Beauty Foundation because I haven't literally like literally since this launch I haven't tried a new foundation when it comes to the base of my face I usually don't deviate too much so whatever I find that works I stick with but yeah I kind of want to get into what I plan on doing for 2018 because I usually don't look forward to the new year too much because I feel like every year is the same and you know there's nothing special about a new year because you can change your way of thinking or create new goals for yourself at any time but silently to myself which is not so silent anymore since I'm doing this video I actually kind of made goals in my head for myself by the first time I'm not big on resolutions and things like that I don't think a year or the start of a new year should make you decide to change your way of thinking or force you to create new goals for yourself I feel like you can do that at any time but I did think about it this year and especially in regards to my YouTube channel here I just wanted to kick it up a notch because if you haven't noticed I haven't filmed in a while and I took a huge break and that's just because I was deciding in the first place whether or not I wanted to continue doing this do I want to do shorter videos because you can do videos and post pictures and I feel like doing all that on Instagram would just make my life easier eventually though I decided against it only because I knew that I would miss being able to make full-out creative videos for YouTube to post the video it can only be about a minute so I just didn't want to have those type of restrictions on myself I wanted to be a little bit more free and YouTube does that for me so yeah I am going to continue making videos for YouTube since I have decided to continue I needed to become more serious about my videos on my channel I wanted to be a little bit more authentic and not just create videos for the sake of creating videos everyone keeps saying things like bring the old YouTube back and that's just because we all miss creating videos for the fun literally that's how YouTube started it was just creating videos for the fun of it and it hasn't been fun anymore for a lot of people and a lot of people have fallen off of making videos for that reason I'm talking a lot I need to think about what I'm doing at this moment and as you can tell I have a new background set up and that was that's really new I just did that this past week and I planned on doing that for a long time I was super bored super duper bored with my old background it was just a white I was filming in front of a white wall and we have a separate little office room this is actually my bedroom but the office room is shaped like a rectangle so I don't have a lot of room in there and plus we put a lot of storage in there I would have more room if we didn't store things in there but since we do we as in me and my boyfriend if you didn't know I live with my boyfriend yeah we don't have a lot of space here so I'm filming in my bedroom instead now just because it's prettier don't you think and I just needed something more interesting going on in the back shameless Maya she's a big inspiration of mine and she's just talked it was a tech talk one of her tech talk videos and she was I think it's called how to film like a beauty blog or something like that and she just talks about using what you have and making the best of it since she is skilled and talented she was able to work with what she had and find ways to create videos that looked really good with you know minimal equipment and software and things like that she knew how to work it you know I mean so that's what I'm learning trying to learn how to do I intend on doing well this year and building my channel it's been stagnant but for whatever reason the people never left so even though that it's been stagnant like I haven't really lost too many people so that's the good thing so I'm gonna move on to the eyes I just put on my Urban Decay primer potion Urban Decay primer potion on my eyes and I'm going to use the dream street palette by Kathleen lights this was a collab with Colourpop and this palette is beautiful I think it was a holiday palette I think that's when it came out but I recently got it um earlier this month no earlier in December but I haven't used it much so we're gonna create a really cute eyelid with this I'm going to use I don't know the names so I'm probably just gonna put them down below but I want to do a halo I'm gonna start with this shade here it's like a seafoam green type shade it's really pigmented too by the way you see that I went straight in for this and I didn't even place I usually do my transition shade first I didn't even do that so I'm going to do that now it's kind of hard to talk and do like complicated makeup looks but we're gonna keep trying here for a transition shade I see this burnt brown shade like a burnt orangey brown so that's always a safe bet we're gonna use that color and this is the morphe 813 brush I love this brush so yeah I would say getting back into my goals for 2018 I just really want to save more money and I feel like because I am trying to do so much for my YouTube channel which includes like buying makeup products buying hair products and buying clothes for fashion videos and things like that I need to chill out because I don't have it all like that like I'm not struggling like you know I can I'm living within my means and I'm not struggling and I'm still saving money but I really want to save a lot more money and I think that's just because I'm getting older it's just necessary it's a necessary part of getting older so I this year I just want to be better and be better at saving money and be better about planning out how I want to spend my money which will be hard for me because I I like to shop I'm sorry I like to shop all right so my camera overheated so I had to wait for a little bit so I'm back now I think for the middle of the halo eye I'm going to start with this color it's called mermaid boy this is look at this freakin pigmentation I love color pop and I use a good majority of their products because you just can't beat the price you can't for the payoff that you get can't beat it like I don't need to be in Sephora every day speaking of oh my gosh so speaking of Sephora I hit rogue at Sephora yeah so most people when they hit rogue at Sephora they're excited because you know it's very exciting you get some perks they're not they're good they're not great or anything they're good I'm also going to put this color kaleidoscope on top of mermaid boy and I did this the last time I did this look oh my gosh about to pop guys about the path look at this yes yes yes yes so I was actually pretty upset that I hit rogue and that's because if you knew if you shop at Sephora I'm getting a bit crazy with this color if you shop at Sephora you know the requirement that is needed to hit rogue and it's a certain amount of money that you have to spend there and I was actually pretty upset that I spent that much in a year at Sephora on my face I'm going to highlight with the Smashbox studio skin 24 hour waterproof concealer and this is in the color medium dark I ended up falling in love with this one mainly because of the color but I saw that Nars actually came out with a similar color of the creamy radiant concealer actually I forgot the name of the color I was using but it was a color that was slightly deeper than this not as bright so when I went to Sephora and tried to get my Nars concealer they were out of the color that I usually used at the time so I decided to try this one and ended up falling in love with it and as usual I'm going to contour with the Fenty Beauty this is the matchsticks and this is the color espresso let me not let this dry out too much jeesh I do plan on moving soon we just want a bigger a little bit bigger place and better landlords not that they're horrible but you know just a little bit more attentive when we need things done trying to be politically correct here they're not gonna see this and me have the idea that the landlords that we do have at the moment they manage a lot of properties and that's probably the reason why they're not as attentive as we would like them to be but they can kind of have that and we're kind of just gonna go we're trying to anyway we just don't we live in the Boston greater Boston area it's hard out here finding an apartment for a price range you're willing to spend for what they give you because prices out here are ridiculous going to set my highlight with my Sasha Buttercup powder this is a new buy by the way I was sleeping hard on this sleeping so hard and because I already had the Laura Mercier I'm like I don't want to buy another setting powder but I broke down and bought it because I was tired because my Laura Mercier it's the deep one and I was tired of it not looking bright enough under my eyes so that's why I got this but I'm going to sit with this first and with the Laura Mercier on top because this is really bright and I like it bright but not blinding so I'll do this one first for the brightness yeah so let me do the bronzer I have color pop bronzer and I think the color is called rodeo it's some a little bit warm it doesn't bother me too much though I wish they had one that like a bronzer that you know you had the option of it not being warm because all of your bronzers are warm these are their powdered bronzers by the way maybe just contour use my NYX matte bronzer to set that because the color pop is so warm when I use it to contour my nose it looks really muddy and just so I'm using that matte bronzer by NYX which is a little bit more toned down and cool tone so we're gonna go back to the eyes and finish them off and I'm going back to the dream street palette so I'm gonna go back to this this matte blue green color and shade under the eye so the camera overheated again so I'm gonna try and get through the rest of this we're almost there yeah so I'm going to do an inner corner highlight we're gonna do the safe bit so I'm gonna go back to kaleidoscope you know what I'm gonna put on lashes but I need to do this part off camera because it's just going to be tragic trying to do this on camera but I just want to show you what I'm gonna put on and it's your lash bar the mimosa lashes it took forever and I took them off reapplied like three times on each side I swear so yeah but are they really pretty though I love these lashes forgot the name of this but I'll put it down below it's just a nice natural I'm just gonna move on to lips this is the color pop liner and this is bonus points they don't have this color anymore which is sad because it's like my perfect liner everyday liner I don't know why I had this in my head that this would match this is the the fenty gloss this is gal on the moon I thought it was gonna match I'm not too sure of that anymore but we're still gonna put it on this might be a team too much yeah it's not bad together we're going to proceed I'm going to put on some highlighter the super shock cheek highlighter by color pop this is the color churro you can use a brush with these but I find that the beauty blender kind of applies it more seamlessly it's not streaky at all with the beauty blender that's why I like it with the brush you'll see streaks sometimes so and we are done I'm just going to spray my face with the mario bedesco again oh I love spraying my face because it just melts everything together like it brings your makeup to life literally comment down below if my lips match my eyes they don't it's okay because makeup you can do anything you can do what your heart desires so that's it guys thanks for sticking it out with me and listening to my little chit
