 Good morning today. I'm going to talk about a few empties the one of the empties being the hair stuff I'm using to keep it thicker and then just some other products not a ton of them I want to talk about an article. I read on expiration dates and Then just some chit chat. I'm filming this on Sunday October 23rd and on Tuesday Jim has his Right hip removal. So I wanted to get this film because I figured when I got home I wasn't going to have any time to and as of today. This is our 32nd day of beautiful weather. I have never known it to be as Beautiful for as long I I appreciate it. I write every day I write what I've you know I write in a ledger or a calendar or a diary whatever you want to call it every day and when it's beautiful weather I put a star and I've counted 32 stars, okay? The first thing I want to talk about is the revitalize cosmetics volume enhancing foam. I Have purchased two bottles of this and I want to let you know how many actual foam pumps that there is in one I started using this one on January 30th, and I used two pumps every day until March 15th, and I just concentrated on two areas and on March 15th I just started using it in my part I've always been able to see new growth and when I went just a few weeks ago to get my roots Touched up and a lot of hair cut off my hairstylist could see a ton of new growth and it's much thicker But I want to talk about the cost of this. I think the normal price is a hundred and forty four dollars I used a 25% off discount code and it was a hundred and twelve dollars So I wrote this down because to believe me my my memory is usually good, but it's just kind of like gone this week I emptied this one on October the second. So that's a grand total of two hundred and eighty eight pumps I paid a hundred and twelve for my foam when I ran out I started only doing it five days a week that was on October 2nd I skip every Tuesday and Thursday I expect it will will not change omitting two days because I have it to you know the fitness I'm happy with this will last over a year and then I'll still have 28 pumps left I will repurchase a friend of mine gave me hers because she had so many areas that were sparse She said she couldn't afford using it even though she had it She said I don't want to I don't want to use it because I won't be able to continue So I would only recommend this if you have an area or two that you're needing to get new growth in This is 39 cents a pump But I don't know if you remember when I was using up my last one I said it was totally empty down here, but I tried every day and I got another pump a foam It's foam and I really like the consistency. Well, this is filled with Serum also, so that's why it kept going. I don't have a discount code I'll try to get one or find one somewhere for you But if you're interested so a lot of times when you click on their online page There will they will offer a discount and this is the only product I've used from revitalized and I've been real pleased Okay, I bought the grande hair and I used it in one area over here That is didn't need as much help. I started using it on January 1st, 2022 and it was Empty on August 28th. So for me, there were 239 applications. I liked it. It did help what I didn't like I'll show you what I didn't like this type of a dropper and you couldn't just get one drop if you wanted you It I would always end up getting one or two and I just wanted one drop because I wanted to try it on a very small area I was gonna go ahead and repurchase this, but I heard Laura from shakeup makeup Mentioned a product she was using And so I went ahead and I ordered recommendations But I do know what works for one person may not work for for somebody else Well, the first time I opened it I Dropped the dropper in the sink and I broke it. So I went to my stash of bottles And I took this dropper out and these droppers I have really good control of these are the ones from timeless that they used to have and I just kind of pushed the glass up a little bit into this area. And so now I Can get the smallest amount and just give one drop so Where I'm using this because I mean this is less expensive than either one of these products that I mentioned So I'm trying right here. I really don't want it. I mean, I'm just putting a drop right in this area I don't really want it to grow like I have this right here and I'm used to it I've had it on my life one time I used to product and it grew and I didn't like it So I always wear my hair over to this side So it won't matter if this one grows or not But I just wanted to try and see if it worked and I want to talk about cost I know I paid a hundred and twenty five dollars for the grande hair There's 40 mils in in that bottle so that equals three dollars and 13 cents a milliliter on the Vegamor it is only 30 mils only two dollars and 13 cents a milliliter and I paid $64 I didn't have a discount code and and don't have a discount code for it But anyway, I'm gonna try it. It usually I can see within two months myself I use my 15 times magnification mirror and I can open my part and I can see if I have a little hairs growing And in a future video, I ordered a less expensive 15 times magnification mirror than the one I mean I didn't need one But I wanted to try it for you and I think I found the good one that I haven't got I haven't put it through the desk But what I like about all three of these products It does not make my hair the least be greasy. I wash my hair I'm Thursday and today is Sunday. I'm gonna wash it tomorrow, but I don't have to use any dry shampoos I mean, you know, I wear something on my lips all day long and today. I'm wearing the je ne sais quoi Gloss from it cosmetics. I've used this for years I buy several when I can find them and most of the time I can find them on sale But this it was the first lip product I ever used that you put on and it's supposed to make your lips the perfect shade of pink for you So this is what it does for my lips And I like it a lot But I've used up to it cosmetic lipsticks This was probably one of my very favorites that they ever made and it is the blurring lines And I heard about it from you all years ago. I'm used up love Yeah, I went down and it with my brush and then I used it up naturally pretty and I still have a little of that You left Still smells good. It's not overly perfumed or anything and it still applies But I just thought I'd say goodbye to it and you know how I am when I find something I love it makes me sad when it's gone, but my favorite lipsticks right now are the BK Beauty Lipsticks they feel great last great and they're comfortable. That's important to me and I like the it pillow lips So they'll probably discontinue that and I love that tart maracuja lip gloss I mean, they're like a balm and a gloss and a lip color, but those are probably my three go-to brands I put my derma roller in here to remind you that I I don't know I have used that timeless and I will use it But I do prefer this and it's because I like the shape of it The one from timeless is a good derma roller that the skin diva is just better for me And it probably is it's just because I got used to holding it So I'll get my skin care products from timeless a lot of them, but I'm not gonna get any more derma rollers I took the caps off these because I make sure I keep a cap in case I lose a cap This is something I use all the time and I have for several years It's the Kenra platinum blow-dry spray and when my hairstylist did my hair I sent her a text when I got home. This was the time before last. I said, oh my gosh I said, why did you use on my hair? I said it is so soft She said I just put on the Kenra blow-dry spray because that's where I really heard about it from her And I said well, obviously I don't use enough one of these lasted me a year But I'm gonna use a little bit more and I may it may not last you here and the other product that I use It's a color well dream coat I use this once a month and if the only reason I only use it once a month is I can keep up when I did it The first time in the month that I wash my hair I use it and then you have to blow your hair dry And then you have to use a hot tool and it will keep my hair smooth for as long as I really want it to be Smooth. I'm not like obsessed with it. I mean, I do love this product, but if my hair is frizzy It's okay. I just don't want to do it more than that. I can't imagine it being Truly good for your hair. I don't know that but Once a month is good for me and this usually lasts over a year about a year and a half and I already have my back goes for both of those and I use a trusty timeless hydrating eye cream I use this every single night never am without it and it lasts just a shade over Six months and I order another one and these are the things that I did not like and I will not repurchase And it took me forever to use this. This is from Ulta. It's the creamy lather body wash in coconut and almond milk I didn't look forward to it. I made myself rotate and And I won't repurchase it and some time ago I ordered the bath gel and soft cotton and it will be used or it will be given to a friend But it just doesn't feel like I want it to feel that time is one of my special times And the only other thing I would not repurchase I talked about this in a earlier video But I'm gonna pitch it. I think I can't think of any place else. I'm gonna try it But it is from it looks like V Beauty. It's the eyelash growth serum. I used it for months I lost my eyelashes. I don't think I will ever try anything again Except for the grande brow. I'm still thrilled with it on my eyebrows. I don't have to do anything But keep them in place. That's all I have to do and and I'm happy with that and then the eyelashes are the length I like them and I don't have to use hardly any mascara So I'm just gonna stick with them and I only use both of those three days a week Once I got my brows and my lashes the length that I wanted them I just started doing it Monday Wednesday and Friday and I don't want real long brows. I don't want I mean, I don't want I don't want real long lashes. I don't want real thick brows. I just want Normal amounts and I had several other I throw away a lot of them But those are just the ones that I thought I had any any good information about them Of course, I go through my it cosmetics superhero mascara right now. I think they're three four Thirty some dollars and if they are I'll put that link below if I have time to I may not have time to put many links below But we'll see I've never paid $25 a tube for this if this year's like every other year There will be a time before Christmas that they'll have like six tubes for $60. I will probably go ahead and buy I have one in backup I'll probably go ahead and order three right now and then if I see that they are gonna have like the ones that like six for $60 sometimes it's that good I will order those two and I always give Away a lot of the it superhero mascaras perfect for me. I don't mean to need many swipes They wash up wash off beautifully and it never flakes on me at all. So it's my perfect mascara And today on my face I tried something that I hadn't tried in several years and the only reason I tried it again is because of tamra I think her channel is tamra's timeless beauty. I will put it below and she loves the pixie color corrector Well, I had one and I probably used it last a few years ago when I use a product I get what I need. I shut the lid and I turned it upside down I know when my products are bad and we're gonna be talking about this next But what I did I used Angie's hot and flashy brush Just put it in there and that's from bk beauty and I just touched right there And right there with just one little thing and then I went right underneath here And put my finger and that was it. And so that's what covered this I don't have on any foundation. I do have on a little bit of blush. This is melani I don't even know if I have it anymore. It's row. It's rose romance I put a little of my malli pore defender and see that's how clear it is It's just clear stuff and I put that over my face so it didn't shine so much in my mascara Then I use something to tame my brows and that's it. Okay. I want to talk about expiration dates I was reading an article and it was very very interesting to me on october 6th The usda put out a new article or put something on their web page and it was on expiration dates and food Well expiration dates and me there's always been a bonus contention and and jim kind of believes That you should throw things out whenever the date is on there and okay First of all, this is just my personal belief I don't want to influence you to do anything except for do your own research And I don't usually read from a website, but I want you to I want to read this to you Most shell stable foods are saved indefinitely In fact, canned goods will last for years as long as the can itself is in good condition No rust dense or swelling Package foods pasta Cookies cereal will be safe past the date Although they may eventually become stale or develop an off flavor You'll know when you open the package of the food is lost quality And then they also I went ahead and kept diving more and more and more And you can if you have something in the freezer, it's not going to go bad It might not taste good if it has freezer burn. You can cut it off, but it is still safe But I just kind of wondering wonder about the timing of this I just want to make sure that I have like dried beans that I have some food because I don't know if they're preparing us for anything Don't know That's up to you know, I mean, but it was enough that it made me think Ding you don't know. I know it's hard to get some of the items that I used to get all the time But I learned in 4h. I didn't ever do home economics I was in 4h when I was a kid and then I was in Girl Scouts when I was a little older But they taught us you know that if a can is bulging If a can has rust around it that you didn't rust yourself by you know putting water on it not wiping it away And to always open it and smell it. I mean I guarantee well I hate to say I guarantee But anything that I've ever had that was not good the first cut into the can I knew immediately It was not good, you know, when in doubt don't eat it But I've watched kitchen cleanouts and it breaks my heart when I'll see people Getting up boxes of spaghetti and pasta and say well this expired this month Like and they throw it away and then the can I mean I'm thinking there is just so much waste But that's just my old woman's opinion. And yes, I am 69, but I'm not an old woman. I'm an old nurse But I'm not an old woman and I know better than any date If something is good or not as far as my makeup I guarantee you I know when it's not good and it kind of really insults me When something says like throw away after 12 months You know, there's certain things you've got to throw away your nitroglycerin it expires You know what? I mean and like with antibiotics that they mix in a bottle those expire There's several things that expire mascara. See I throw mine away every three months Just because I don't ever want to get an eye infection and I know that's a place that can harbor bacteria But if it is an eye shadow if it is a powder if it is a lipstick I smell it and I put it on and if it behaves the same I use it I'm pretty sure I only have three videos to film for the rest of the year I have two videos in november and then in december I'm going to be doing like the collaboration that I always do my like 10 favorites from 2022 and I'm going to be doing that with Natalie the beauty diva And I don't think carol from the old carol show is going to get to do it this time But you know, maybe she will so I am not going to be putting up like Christmas gift guides or anything like that What I'm going to do is I've got I've got a playlist of three Videos I did and I will put it at the end of my screen and I'll also link them below I checked and everything that I have mentioned is still there. I have one video That is $10 and under everything in there is $10 or under. I have one that's $20 and under And you know in the $20 and under there may be something that's $8, you know, but it's all under $20 And then I have one that's $30 and under and most of these things I have purchased for gifts most of them are practical But anyway, I thought I would do that and let you see if you were needing some ideas I always like to get my guys my son and my son-in-law Like gadgets for the kitchen because they both like to cook and of course their wives get to use them too I loved reading your comments And using the word autumn in my last giveaway. I have always called this season autumn It is just too pretty of a word. I mean, it's too pretty of a season to be called fall So and I will always capitalize it whether it needs to be capitalized or not And it's kind of like mom mother Dad father I just can't type those without a capital letter because letter because that's my mother and that's my father So I know the capitalization rules. You just I just can't do it I'm going to announce the winners of my last giveaway But the one that I announced the one that I had before that I had three $100 winners Two of them claimed their gift on sunday One on monday morning And they all had their e-gift cards by monday and I love it when that happens and it usually does I have very very loyal viewers and and I appreciate you and anybody that's new.
