 hey guys it has been the most craziest couple of weeks it really has I I've been super super busy I think in my one of my last videos I talked to you about an eye issue I was having so I've been diagnosed with dry eye I've been on some sort of a steroids for my eye my eye is a lot better but my eye was so bad for the longest time that when I was completely red bloodshot it got to the point where I couldn't even open it to see light and it would just run and run and run so it was it was just crazy so anyways it kind of helped me off from doing a little bit of a video because I felt like I looked really horrible in it not that I look great in general but I look better when I have two normal somewhat normal eyes like they are now that's not 100% improved but it's pretty good but this eye drops they put me on these steroid eye drops they're like $245 for a little tube and my insurance I have a plan you know I have a drug plan that goes along with my Medicare picked up sixty some more dollars of it that's very like 195 out of pocket that's like I think that's so insane it's is so insane and if I had time I would have looked at seeing it maybe if I could get it differently cheaper whatever but I didn't have the real time for that so anyways I took that I started to feel better but prior to all that happened or during that time frame Jay's car decided to die and it didn't really die but we knew it needed a whole lot of work wouldn't get go through inspection was really falling apart and he needed a new car he needed a better car so we started on this journey to purchase a car and I'm going to share some of those clips with you right now so we are like a herd of turtles and what I hope is not a wild what do you call it a wild goose chase it's gonna be a wild goose chase just might be going on a car hunt and he has an appointment then after we made the appointment the car disappeared from the dealer's website yeah so they know we're coming up there to discuss this particular car however it is now not on the dealer's website that tells me something we're gonna be a big bait and switch and we hope we walk away and they're gonna say oh it's just got sold five minutes ago and we'll say well how did you get it off your website over an hour ago and why are we stupid enough to still go up there you never know so we are not the proud owners of a new vehicle right any yeah but the vehicle was there they held it for us and that's why it wasn't on the website surprisingly we've no experience what was that a car fax car max car so it was the first time we've had an experience with them and when you inquire apparently they do take it off the website and put it on hold my makeup is all over my mask so that was really kind of interesting but we did not buy anything the the one we looked at was a little bit above our budget and car max that they don't negotiate we don't find something else yeah we'll keep looking and we didn't have to buy a car today but I went to Macy's I went to Macy's I wanted a puffer coat and I wanted to come up one of those really collapsible they're a super warm but they're they're puffy but they collapse way down and they're just really comfortable driving I always feel so constrained in my coat heavy I would rather wear a cape because I like the looser feeling and you know not being zippered in like an Eskimo coat and the nice thing is that I had a gift certificate from a year ago that had enough balance on it so I was able to pay the coat and I got a head muff and like a ear muff whatever you call them like so yeah now I'm all set for a winter adventure we'll have to go up north this weekend so we didn't buy a vehicle yesterday so we are here today Toyota yeah Toyota Nashua and we're looking at a Jeep Grand Cherokee I thought it was an overland we're looking at the Toyota dealership the Jeep Grand Cherokee we're looking at a great great great Jeep okay grand Cherokee overland see I knew there was an overland see I knew that men anyways that's what we're doing on this New Year's Day like I heard of turtles in Jay's new wheels what are we gonna call this one I'm gonna have to come up with something a mini Jalupa yeah gonna it's the golf mobile maybe I don't know but we're on oh my gosh you had to stop and take a picture of his Jeep holy moly over yonder behind those boats is the Seabrook power plant you probably all heard about that how's the ride honey bun beautiful you're loving it yeah it's really comfortable I don't feel sore or tired you know well you just sitting there why would you be so tired driving talking about being comfortable you know so pretty here huh I know huh Perkins cove no people around but us the man behind me and it seems so weird that we're here wearing masks had no issue parking that's what this thing means six feet apart no stores are open so yeah so I'm not buying anything oh look at the sign on them on the bathrooms they painted masks on the people so you'd know men's room women's room nobody's here so we are in Kenny bunkport main and over there is President Bush's compound and what a gorgeous gorgeous setting this is gorgeous gorgeous setting so we really had a great time we drove all around we never got to Portland headlight but we did go to Nubba light and then superimposed some pictures we just had a wonderful day he's super thrilled with his his a Jeep his new Jeep his car purchase and it's kind of funny you know we started out used we started out wanting to a certain budget then we started out wanting a little bit more because we went a better car we wanted a newer car and then we ended up brand spanking new 2021 update on my nails and I started talking about this in a couple of videos ago the Sally Hansen and I know a lot of people are doing the press on nails and different nails and all that I just really didn't want to go to the fake nail roots yet and I didn't want to go back to the salon and spend for a fortune on that I was really surprised how these have been holding up they have actually been amazing to the point where every time I go in a store I look at the colors just to see this what I have on I don't know if it's gonna pick up but these are four days old you know it's four days ago when I did these I just absolutely love how this has been holding up it's been super super amazing key thing for me is I just make sure my nails are not greasy they're super clean I've already done you know the nail polish remover I've taken any soap on and then I do step one which is the color I wait a good five minutes in between put the second coat if I'm gonna do a second coat and the second coat doesn't have to be the same color like for example I have these glitter glitter that's the second coat on the glitter just put it right on top of the color and it works perfect and then you let it dry and then the next thing you know is you're gonna put the top coat on which is the step number two and I have the clear gloss because I really like that and you can buy these on sale sometimes Walgreens sometimes you buy one get the other half off whatever it is sometimes you have some really good sales on them so I've been playing around with my eye shadow we've been trying to do different things but I have not wanting I don't want to buy any new palettes I'm going to use up the palettes I have and I do like and I have used for a long long time and this wet and wild and this is the cream brulee so last time I tried to find the wet and wild cream brulee I could not find it anywhere and I went into all the stores I just could not find it anywhere I could and I found it in Amazon and it was higher in price than I thought it should be for wet and wild and then I ended up finding it in eBay and in eBay I got a really good deal I think I got like three of them this is the cream brulee the wet and wild cream brulee compared to the regular wet and wild brulee but this is the regular wet and wild brulee the number on this is C348A and on the cream brulee the number is C251B the formula is different on the cream brulee than the brulee so everyone says to me Monica what are you talking about you can't find cream brulee well they can find the brulee but what they're not finding is the cream brulee so the consistency is different the design is different I think the color is pretty close to being the same although I think there's a slight variation in the color on the cream brulee but I use this as my all-over and what really bothers me is some of the palettes I have in love like for example my busy art liaison this one I use a lot they really don't have an all-over color that I like a lot of my palettes don't have an all-over color like I want it to be really light and I want to go from my movable lid up to my brow bone and I find that the lightest one in this is too dark so I'm always finding that I have to have something extra and I've tried a number of different products but I just keep coming back to my a wet and wild cream brulee as my favorite but the other thing that I'm like so excited about many of you probably know and you probably have watched Peaches skincare Lisa from Peaches skincare she's right here on YouTube she's absolutely amazing she really believes in natural skincare she really believes in taking care of yourself naturally and she has the most beautiful thick long dark hair she's letting it go gray and she embraces the aging process and I know I say anti-aging well it's not so much that I'm against it I just want to slow it down anyways she embraces a very holistic natural approach with clean products but a product line is amazing and when you think about if you want to jump on and do one skincare line she's get you covered one of the things that she's always talked about is that cleansers do matter and that's been something that I have never ever been on a bandwagon with never because I just figured you're gonna wash it right off and actually she says that in some of her videos the attitude if you just gonna wash it off so I was like ah yeah yeah I'll still go buy my cheap cleanser I'll go do something that I'm just gonna wash it off as long as it gets my face clean I couldn't have been more wrong and now I'll tell you I have not used any of her products long enough to give you a thorough thorough look see but I could not be more wrong with the attitude of how clean a cleanser gets your skin so I've been using the classic face cleanser the smell is beautiful I I mean I think I would just like to use this all the time because I love the smell when I open it up I don't even know how to describe it but it is a it's not a perfume me it's not a it's a natural clean scent I just really really love it it does have like sicilic acid lactic acid glycolic acid it has all sorts of different citrus and that's the smell that I pick up on is the citrus anyways we were talking back and forth and she said you know I'll send you some of our products she's not I don't want you to feel committed I don't need you you know I don't want you feel like you have to you know talk about them up I'll send them to you and I said okay sure but it was a little hesitant because she's very natural very into clean and I always think that you know the clean beauty natural beauty I always think it's more money and you know the affordability factor and then I really started to think about it if this product if this cleanser which is I'm gonna say maybe in low 30s if this product lasts a long time if I could get four months out of this bottle and what I'm gonna do I'm going to date it on the bottom when I started to use it which was yesterday the 24th and I want to see how long it lasts me arrived this week whole package arrived this week and I couldn't be more excited about it I really number one I love supporting youtubers that you know especially locally owned and especially women-owned businesses as much as I can I love to support people like that at this point in time this would definitely be a purchase for me the other thing that I used after I cleansed I did use her exfoliation and the exfoliation is flawless exfoliation so I use this love it it is it is like when you put it on it's a dark and it has very tiny like little beads coffeeish maybe I don't know but it's a gentle gentle exfoliation that that you could use more than once a week you can use this I think probably twice a day but I'm not an expert at it so I'm in a default to whatever Lisa's directions are on it but I used it last night I used it this morning and I love how clean it made my face and the other thing I have used is her ACV toner this has vinegar in it and you can you can I kind of smell a little bit of that citrus vinegar when I first put this on my face now they said put this on your face totally clean toner and I put it you know I'm working on my pores my pores on my nose horrible so I've been working on that and I put this all over my face and I could feel initially a little bit of a tingly but it dissipated really quick so I thought this was really awesome the other products that she sent me and she sent me quite a few products complimentary she sent me her vitamin C and this is a fresh squeezed C I haven't used it yet and her classic moisturizer have not used that yet and her eye cream and she also sent a miracle mask so she sent me seven products and I think she has a few more but I think might have been a retinol because I did say I use retin A I'm not gonna stop using retin A so I am going to incorporate Lisa's skincare line now I am in the middle of using a product that I'm gonna finish out my review on that but and then I'm gonna start the whole complete line and this is all I'm going to use other than my retin A so I will definitely report back that was sent to be complimentary from Lisa the next thing I'm gonna share with you is product that I bought so it is cold it is cold freezing but I have my special hat special scarf that was knitted especially for me from Francis I think her knitting name is Nora Knits but I kind of know her from happiness sparkles so you know what I actually wear a lot of ear buffs I have as you saw in some of the car clips I have these little black ones this black one with little pearls in it that I really really like and this is what I wear I wear this more than I would wear a knit hat but there are times when you need a knit hat so I absolutely love the fact that I have a royal blue knit hat a scarf and then I can wear it with my black puffer coat I think it's awesome that's sort of my update my eye is doing better I love the hats that Francis sent me absolutely love them I have a pair of Wendy's earrings on my life with Wendy who I have bought a number of earrings anyways I hope you kind of enjoy this mishmash of chit chat car buying hat buying earmuff buying a little bit of this a little bit of that and I appreciate every single one of you thank you so much please be sure to thumbs up the video and if you are new here please subscribe I'll see you in my next video guys
