 Hi guys, what's up? It's Kinsey and welcome back to my channel today's video I'm going to be doing a little get ready with me with a Q&A because I feel like I haven't like sat down and talked to you Guys in a second also my hands right now. It's really mainly here. I already know okay anyways I asked you guys for some questions on Instagram. I'm gonna be answering them and doing my makeup Have my iced coffee with my glass straw also like I said This will be the death of me these glass straws are bomb guys my makeup bag is Overflowing because I just keep putting random products in I didn't even bring a mirror so uh great. I'm also so Gen Z with my little phone charm But like that was a millennial thing to do right like the joking like back in the day YouTube. I don't know guys I Got a question asking how I always look so put together. Thank you I don't feel like I do but I'm kind of like against face primer at this point, but I'm still gonna use it This is the Laura Mercier pure canvas primer back to the question I feel like if you just accessorize any outfit, it looks like you tried harder So I just have like my everyday jewelry staples which I can do an Instagram real of where I got them all And just by accessorizing I feel like that makes you look a lot put together as I'm filling this tomorrow My closet room is gonna be installed and it'll have a lot better organization for my jewelry So I want to like switch it up more, but I do think Accessorizing makes it all look more put together, you know next question Fave mark recipe. Okay. It's my favorite margarita in Dallas going back in with my rare beauty problem You know what I do have a Mirror right here. Wow so cute. You know my favorite margarita is from the rustic This is the mirror that I'm working with everyone a frozen margarita with a grand margnet float And then if I'm like out and about and there's no like frozen machine I will just do like a skinny mark with salt or something like that. I am gonna put concealer on I like sometimes just don't this is a way heavier makeup look then what I normally wear in the summer I might do a little real or an IGTV of like my everyday no makeup makeup look because that's normally what I wear But I'm filming today, and I want to get ready. I'm using the hourglass concealer That's a lot of concealer. Why do I do this to myself? I'm trying to do this without a mirror This is basically the no mirror makeup challenge everyone Do you plan to live anywhere else besides Dallas? I try not to plan too far ahead just because my mind changes all the time Like even to what I wanted in life three months ago to now is totally different So I try to just like keep an open mind at all times knowing that I'm probably gonna change my mind But I loved Dallas. There's nothing like living near family. Like I will say at the end of the day There's just nothing like it and like that is what I prioritize and like what I care the most about I also though at the same time feel like I already did it Like I went to LA for like almost five years and I'm glad that I did that now I'm around friends in my hometown who went to college with a lot of our other friends And now they really want to get out and try something new like I totally understand that that makes complete sense to me I just feel like I got that experience already. So I love being here. I also am like just so happy in Dallas I was like joking to a friend the other day saying I'm gonna have to use the mirror for a sec Don't mind me. I'm lightly baking, but it doesn't look so light on camera My under eyes have just been creasing really bad, but honestly it feels weird because I do a lot of cream products It's just like bad. I don't know guys. Oh, I just got that all over after I just vacuumed You know what? I think I'm gonna go in a little bit more because at this point I'm already here You know what I mean? I'm no makeup pro. So uh, yeah, that's all I have to say I was joking with a friend the other day though And I was like I only want to travel like Monday through Friday Like I don't want to miss weekends here and it's not that I'm a person like lives through the weekends But I cherish my weekends in Dallas like they are so much fun Also, I feel like it's really like I just moved back because obviously we were in a pandemic when I moved back So now I'm making out a bunch of friends and it's just like such a fun Social life doing things that I love doing so with that being said I have no intention of moving But who knows but I really don't even want to put that out there because like I don't want to move, you know Next we're gonna go in with this cream blush. It's tower 28. I love these blushes They are so good like literally so bomb one question was do you want a family one day? I think that is like what I'm most excited for in life And like I didn't always think I would be that person I go with my Sephora 64 blush I mean brush the blush and then I just apply this is really a no mirror makeup challenge Even in the mirrors right here, but you know what I mean? I actually never ever put the blush on before I put the bronzer on so interesting anyways That is like what I'm absolutely most excited for like I am so excited to have a family of no idea going in with My milk makeup bronzer at my favorite bronzer stick. I'm Really really want the Charlotte. So I can't take myself seriously right now guys I really want the Charlotte Tilbury sticks. So oh wow Got a lot of questions like dating life. I cannot take myself seriously We're gonna dust this off really quickly before I do anything else. I have the hourglass veil a translucent powder We're just gonna we're just gonna you know I'm just like putting on way more makeup than I normally would because I'm filming and it's just like that's how it goes And like being contempt being single blah blah blah. I am so happy Like I I go to bed every night and I wake up every morning without a care in the world guys Like not that I've been in a ton of relationships that like stress me out that much But I'm just saying there's something about just being like so free and young and single and hanging out with your friends all The time and like not having a relationship like not that I don't like being in relationships But I just think for like where I'm at in life right this second It is definitely the best choice for me to be single going with an hourglass bronzer But yeah, I'm not like lonely like I get like I don't know. I'm just really happy I think I'm definitely the least interested in being in a relationship Then I ever have been my entire life and like not in a super like negative way But just that I'm having so much fun and I don't even know where I would fit that in like I don't even know if I'm in the place where like if it happens I would even be down for it. It honestly made me rethink the whole thing of like oh If they say they're like not ready like it's just not the right person or whatever because I'm like I think I could literally meet the love of my life and I still don't know if I would date them right now Like that is how much I'm like no I'm single you know speaking of like those random cliches and stuff my friends that are talking about this the other day And it's like the whole thing of like if he wanted to he would which I actually like Strongly disagree with because I don't know about you guys But I want to do things all the time and I don't so like No, I think what matters there is that he isn't in that situation So like that would be that I don't know I only can debate down below But like at the end of the day, I want to do things all the time that I don't do It's just the fact in that scenario. I think that like he isn't doing it You know what you mean on that topic. We're young if you want to do something go do it You know what I mean, I don't know my highlighter went guys. Oh, I'm finding it This bag is so crammed thoughts. I'm getting back together with an X another Concept that like we've been talking about lately just because I feel like I have changed so much in the past Year alone, and I think that's really good like sometimes I'm hard on myself for changing because I'm like why did I need to change so much or Maybe I don't connect with like who I used to be so I almost like don't like that person even though I liked her at the time. I don't know if I'm in there's nothing wrong with like my past self either I don't know if that makes sense However, we've just been talking about how like life is just very gray like there's no black and white Answers I believe Very few black and white answers. Okay. Here's a highlighter. I've got a champagne light. Okay. I think everything is really Circumstantial so it's hard to be like yes or no. That's like a bad idea or a good idea I think sometimes like breaking up actually makes the relationship stronger. I will say I would maybe not get back together with an ex if we haven't had like actual time apart independently where we both realized that that was what we wanted maybe or We both grew in different areas or why the relationship didn't work out has been changed sense. Does that make sense? I wouldn't just break up and immediately give out to you like week later I've been liking like a pop of pink like a brighter pink than this with my blonde hair recently It doesn't seem like that's my story today, you know favorite podcast for your soul. Okay randomly I have been loving Oliver and Kate Hudson's podcast sibling revelry and I like that one because it's not super like Oh, this is how you can get better. This is what you should be doing in your life or whatever Even though I love those podcasts don't get me wrong That's like what I prefer to listen to for the most part I do like podcasts like that that are a lot more chill and relax and feel like you're hanging out with friends It's like a good break from those best advice for being happy in your 20s Also, by the way, I've been getting so many nice messages from you guys saying like you followed me for years And you just have never seen me happier and blah blah blah and those messages mean the world I will say I'm definitely probably the happiest ever been but also like there's been road bumps I think 2021 for the most part has been a really good year for me Especially as far as just like self-growth in changing and pivoting and all those things But I think like really what I'm trying to learn is just living in the present And that's something that's been very difficult for me in the past It's like a high achiever and I like want to do a bunch of things and whatever and I'm always like Go go go. I want to get to the next thing and I feel like I've missed out on so much of life because of that Pill of talk lashes guys, so I'm really working on that and that has I think made the biggest difference I realized it the other day how much better I've gotten at it because a friend was asking about a situation And I had friends over the other night and they were like how do you feel about that? And I was like I mean if it happens it happens if it doesn't like there's just something better And I think that's something that's like really easy to say But it's really hard to mean especially when you're someone like me who like always thinks she knows what she wants And it wasn't that I was like being lazy in regard or whatever But I truly was like I just trust that things are gonna work out and like not thinking too far ahead and like stressing myself out about it Which has been a main Point of like tension I think in my life and you know the recent 23 years on this earth So I hate putting on mascara Here we go this beautiful setting spray that I love How many sprays the setting spray do you guys do if you made it this far in the video? Let me know I want to keep talking. So yes, I did technically finish my makeup It's not my favorite look. I've ever done like it's easy simple I was having a really bad makeup week last week, which is like didn't even know it was a thing Um and then Saturday I killed it and that's when I just didn't care to kill it You know what I mean coffee and questions everyone. Okay. How do I can be content with just being single? Sorry, I was looking for some big sis advice. Okay I just personally don't want a relationship right now and I think like a few things have changed with that But one I'm just in a state where like so much of my life is like uncertain not that I'm not stable Like I think I'm definitely stable not to be in a relationship obviously But like I don't know I just want to like be by myself and spend so much time with my friends And I know that this is gonna be like a very short lived period of my life So I'm just having a lot of fun and like I like I'm literally with my friends 24 7 and it is so much fun And I can't imagine that changing so I think just like filling your time with things that you like to do and even like Just spending time on your own look I love being by myself and by myself like all the time as well and like getting hobbies and things like that Yeah, I just don't feel like that is something that I really need right now And I think there's been times in the past where I would have like wanted a relationship But I just am not there right now. How to meet friends in Dallas. Okay. I'm very lucky in the sense that 95% of who I'm hanging out with is either someone that I grew up with and I've known Since I was like between 10 to 15 or a friend of theirs I have made a few other friends that are not from my hometown Which might be like everyone's nightmare But I actually like love where I grew up and I love my friends and like I was really really lucky in that regard There's a lot of like really healthy friendships still to this day and like great groups and like fun people and I love them Like my favorite people honestly, but I have made other friends and honestly most of the time It's just their Instagram I think if you are in Like post-grad or any or anytime that you're trying to make friends want to have a podcast episode up on this with a friendship coach So that will really help you but just reach out like people just want people to reach out You're probably not reaching out because you think it will be weird, but they want you to reach out You know what I mean any travel plans for the summer besides LA? Okay, so like I was saying I really just want to be in Texas as much as possible But I am going to LA to record and then I'm going back to LA like a week after that for a wedding I think like my girlfriends here. We want to do a Nashville trip and like I'll do a few other things I'm sure I'll have to go to Austin. I don't know my set travel plans You would think because it's like post COVID I would be like I want to jet set everywhere But I'm just so happy here that I really don't want to leave and I just want to be with my friends So maybe I'll regret that but that's just how I feel Okay, what do you think about the difference in mentality between California and Texas? I can speak for myself on this if you guys have been watching me settled in LA. I love LA I love California so much fun really great time Definitely a different part different time of my life like I was a full-time student I was working full-time at the podcast like there was just so much going on let alone Traffic to get places literally took up like three hours of my day I was just really really really busy and I had no time to slow down and really think about what was important to me So I think those times were really important to like get to where I am now But now that I'm in Texas and I've been able to slow down a little bit Obviously with the pandemic. I've realized the things that like I really care about and like what success means to me not like a final answer, but Success to me has a lot more to do with like relationships and the people in my life on top of You know like what I wanted to career-wise and stuff But I think at the end of the day like if I just had like my friends and my family I would actually be okay with that I would prefer to have those people in my life then to like make a million dollars or something like that However, I'm like a very driven person I don't think that I could ever like not be doing something You know, but I just realized how much like people in my life matter to me and also just Texas in general I love it here. Do you ever feel comfortable showing things online and being so public? Okay? If I post it myself No, because I'm making that choice But I'm definitely more private about a lot of other areas in my life Then I think people realize like I'm a very open person when it comes to just me, but if someone else is involved I'm a lot more private so Not necessarily, but I do sometimes like cringe that certain things are on the internet that I over shared or whatever But I feel like I don't over share as much as I once did like maybe when I was like 16 17 Actually, even then I don't feel like I over shared enough I'm probably if I over shared at 16 and 17 I would have like three million subscribers So also at those ages I was thinking about that today when we were on YouTube and everyone was like partying and drinking whatever all that was like So behind the scenes and we were allowed like it was so frowned upon and then like Tanimojo like made it normal Which I like appreciate just as far as like authenticity But it used to be like such a secret and it's like stupid, you know top three books We have to read in our 20s. I would suggest the ruthless elimination of hurry Then I would suggest to finding decade. That was a really helpful book as far as my 20s go and then Honestly anything by Dr. Aiman I really care a lot about brain health and I think it's like a really interesting thing That's gonna be even bigger than it is now as far as like mainstream. Obviously. No, you know what I mean It's gonna be more popular talked about I've recently ended up with a lot more free time What should I be doing instead of scrolling make a list of things you like to do? And if you can't think of anything to do go off that list So like reading going on a walk going making matcha going and get getting matcha face timing a friend cleaning your room Things like that and just do something off the list. How do I get over someone? I feel like I'm just good at this at this point But I have a great piece of advice that I had never done before But it's really good when I was like 18 or 19. I was dating this guy. It wasn't the best relationship It wasn't the worst but it was just like definitely not for me And I probably broke up with him like six times and it was just one of those things really they would come back And then I would it was easier to be with them than it was to be without him whatever I finally Wrote myself a letter and was like Kenzie you do not need to be in this relationship And neither of you really like each other blah blah blah whatever and I wrote myself a letter So that way anytime he would like come begging for me back I would just read the letter and that really helped me the thing now that I would recommend is Writing out a list of all you know what maybe Brooke told me to do this I can't remember Brooke. This might be your tip Brooke, but I'm gonna give her credit I think that it is but if it isn't I'm sorry cuz I'm putting your name on this. It's nothing bad Okay, but make a list of qualities or things about them or the relationship that you didn't like or you don't want Because it's really easy when you're sad and you miss someone to be like oh my gosh But it was perfect whatever but like naturally with anything there's gonna be flaws And there's going to be like the negatives so make a list of all of the bad things So you don't over romanticize it in your head and make it into something that it wasn't you know what I mean? All right guys, that is it for today's video. I really hope you guys enjoyed. I love you guys I am so excited for YouTube this summer. Let me know what you guys want to see Hope you guys have the best ever love you guys so much, and I'll talk to you soon I first thing we do we interpret labs using a thinner Reference range so anybody that's listening right now will know hey when I get my line lab I'm being compared to this reference range in my lab Well, we get that reference range from a statistical bell curve average of people who go to lab
