I looooved my1980’s blue mascara. Being a teenager in the mid eighties was the best. Xxx

Love the Ordinary GF serum! It makes a huge difference to my 70 year old skin because it feels so great, more supple. I think it looks better and have gone through several bottles 💯💯🇨🇦

OMG! Your lip makeup is the star of the show. It gives you perfect rosebud lips.

Thank you Gemma, loving your hair and make up in this video! Much appreciation for affordable products. Xx❤

I bought this green mascara after watching this video. Here goes 😊, I wear minimal makeup, at 69 years young, less is definitely more. My hair is silvery grey, fair skin, brown eyes and some freckles. My problem with mascara getting on in years has been that brown /black or brown mascara (have never seen a dark grey) tends to look really harsh. This Maybelline green mascara gives a much softer, nice effect on my eyes. The only small gripe I had with it was that the brush tended to be a bit bendy. I just used a clean, stiff old mascara to seperate the lashes because I don't like too much product. I would recommend this mascara. Cheers Gemma.

I never knew you actually had to lance spots before a patch! I always assumed there was a drawing agent in the patch that somehow worked through the skin. No wonder I haven’t found them all that successful! 🥴

[KaterinaPisecka]

Love you too ❤ you look super young today! I have to try that GF serum! 😂

[sharongalloway]

Great video Gemma. Would love to see an updated Skincare Routine due to the products you mentioned in this video. Especially Numbuzin and The Ordinary, but also Nip & Fab. Xx

I love the ordinary Growth factor serum and its made a big difference to my dry mature skin. I use it twice a day and will keep using it.

[parksbpknit]

Of course I watched till the end, wouldn't miss a second of your videos, they brighten my day!

[rosm]

Quite keen on the green mascara! Also, Im very interested in learning more about your experience with the GF serum!? Thank you for the awesome video!

[lanaharper]

Love your videos, but I have a suggestion. It would be really helpful when you are talking about serums especially about whether or not they can go under the eye. The GF-15 for example or 15 GF whichever it is. Also it would be helpful to know if the cleansing bombs and creams that you use cause burn in the eyes. Thanks so much for all you do.

[rosiemartinez]

Great information on products Gemma … loving your hair & “ bright eyes” today, you are looking so youthful & vibrant ..❤

[Friesian-qu]

Great video Gemma!! I enjoyed it so much and so many wonderful affordable goodies to try!!❤

[fifilarue]

I’m in the market for a new cleansing balm, and you’ve definitely given me some options!

[LilyOlea]

I love the Numbuzin 9. I’ve bought it twice now. Can’t find the green mascara anywhere unfortunately. Great recommendations.

[beth-eileenwalker]

How could I not want to watch all the way to the end! You have shared so many great products with me, the NUMBUZIN No9 Essence is wonderful. Worth watching till the end... Look forward to hearing your mum's thoughts.

[sylviamolina]

Oooh, looking forward to trying some of these recommendations, thank you!❤

[MarucaCH]

I used the purple maybelline sky-high mascara for the first time today, and it’s amazing! I will definitely buy the green one.

I have mascaras in all colours, but not subtle ones, and the purple one is quite subtle, so I want the green one too!

[karengreen]

Love your eyeshadow, which one is it please?❤
