If you've made it all the way down here, thanks for taking the time to read though all my stuff :). In case you are curious, the vast majority of what I show on my channel is purchased by me. Occasionally, I will agree to partner with certain companies who will provide me with their product for consideration. I will ALWAYS mention in the video if a product is provided to me for review. I also make sure that the company I am working with knows that I only share my honest review of their products. If I love it, I will share that. If I hate it, I will share that as well. I will also always tell you why I love or hate a product. Also, I utilize Magiclinks to link my products for you guys. Magiclinks is an affiliate program, which means if you use the link to make a purchase, I will receive a small commission from the sale. I always appreciate you using my links to shop!

Thank you as always for watching and take care!

Happy Mother's Day! I didn't have alot of problems with my pug, but I took her out at least every 2 hours if not beforehand & then put down a pad on my kitchen floor just in case. Now she goes on the pad only on rainy or snow days because she's a Princess & doesn't like to get wet other than that she always goes outside.

I have the Laura Geller blushes in Tropic Hues, Pink Grapefruit and Fruit Punch. I LOVE all of them!! I also love the balance and brighten powder foundation. Use every day. It’s because of your video that I tried these and they work perfect for my sensitive skin and extremely oily t-zone. And I also use the Buxom glosses now too and enjoy them with my Vice lipsticks. I save my Marc Jacobs stuff for my special moments - which sometimes is just feeling awesome while cooking dinner and doing dishes. 😊❤️👍 Thanks for all your great product reviews for us cool toned ladies rocking our natural silver/grey hair. ❤️❤️

Both of the palettes you mentioned are in my daily rotation. Love them both! Great basics

Yup I just got that Urban Decay Naked Basics 2 palette in the Sephora sale & like it very much. It’s available. And for frequent fliers who travel lightly this has it all. In a tiny light palm size palette. Light shades, medium contour shades, several that will work as brow powder for a lot of people and a very good powder liner shade.

That Marc Jacobs pressed powder is on my wish list.

Happy Mother’s Day!

I'm a furmom & that's a joy in itself! My mom's been gone many, many years but I still talk to her all the time & will see her soon enough! Have a happy one! Blessings! Jackie in upstate NY

With the accomplice powder, the lid pops up to make it easy to put the brush back.

Thank you for the hugs! I lost my mom on 12/28 and this is the first one without her....

Have you tried the Vanille Coco from Comptoir sud pacifique? It's really nice. (On me, it smells like delicious coconut cake. It blends well with the vanille extreme, too.)

[annak]

Hey Melanie! So curious how you're using that Marc Jacobs finishing powder. I got it for a touch up powder, but the shimmer in it certainly wouldn't work for that... would it? Lol the product is so beautiful but not sure exactly how to use it since it does have shimmer. Would love to hear your thoughts! P.s. pugs are the most stubborn dogs🤣🤣 but they're just the cutest ❤

[Lillylover]

Same thing with mini dachshunds stubborn as ever . I have a year old puppy and he still can’t be trusted with potty trained 😮

[galatiakardon]

Happy Mother’s Day Melanie! I need to pick up the pacific body moisturizer this weekend. Enjoy your weekend 🥰

[kristysensing]

I think I saw somewhere the Marc Jacobs compact folds down and u put the brush in and it snaps and folds back up! U might want to look that up and mess around with urs. I so want to try it!

[heidiaguilar]

Yes, natural hair is best for blush. I don't mind synthetic for powder but not blush. The flap lifts up on the Marc Jacobs powder to put the brush back in.

Happy Mother’s Day Melanie have a great one 💕

[lisahart]

The top piece on thre Marc Jacobs pops up so it’s easier to put the brush back inbb

[betsybabf]

Lost my mom and my husband, who made it special for me every year, and Mother's Day is day we lost our stillborn son. Mother's Day is just for getting through now. Our 5 kids will get me cards, but the older kids are working that day.

Thank you for the natural bristle blush brush tip. Can’t wait to hear about he MJ Accomplice Powder

[RitaJean]

Hi.  Do you know if  Comptoir Sud Pacifique is cruelty free? I tried researching it, but I can't find anything on it.  BTW, love your videos.

[irisk]

I've heard that about Pugs, that they are notoriously difficult to potty train. Luckily mine has been pretty good. He is definitely up there in the stubbornness factor though!

Here in Antwerp Province (Belgium), we celebrate Mother's Day at St. Mary's Assumption, so August 15th. It's odd because the rest of Belgium doesn't seem to care. LOL!
