Hey everyone, so today we are doing a very exciting video. In this video, we are going to be buying more Pinterest ad products. We have done so many videos like this and yet here I am doing it again. Pinterest is like the site of aesthetic photos. And I feel like more and more of the aesthetic photos are actually ads. So as I say in almost every single video,

0:23

let me waste my money on sketchy sites so you do not have to and I will tell you if it's worth buying or not. I feel like in this video some of the products have potential and some of them really have potential to fail. So let's get into it. By the way, I love my Pinterest feed. I have it so dialed in. Like we've got the Lennox Spice Village. We've got some beautiful wallpapers.

0:52

Like I can't help but get some sort of dopamine hit when I look at my Pinterest. But as you can see, I have lots of sponsorships here. I have Timu Sponsorship, a Wayfair Canada Sponsorship, an Ets an Etsy Canada sponsorship, and then here's the one. I've never heard of this brand before. It is called Whiskey Active, and it's kind of formatted like a haul video.

1:14

So they're unboxing everything and then trying it on. And I must admit, this is a cute active wear set. I love the scalloped edge. I like the neckline cut. So let's check out whiskey. Wait a minute whiskey Whiskey, I'm not sure. Okay. So here we are on the whiskey site looks like a pretty standard nice site

1:36

So based on this it looks like they don't just do activewear. They also do like these pretty skirt top sets with flowers This is one of the products that was highlighted. It's the scallop cutout mock neck bra. Now this is $78 and I believe that's in Canadian. Oh no, that's in US dollar. Okay, Christ, in Canadian dollar.

1:56

Immediately I was gonna get the yellow top because that's the one that's featured in the Pinterest photo, but it's sold out in all the sizes which there's only small, medium, large. Hopefully their plan is to expand into more sizes,

2:12

but I can't get the yellow one, so I will go for my second choice, which would be this muted khaki. Let's grab it in a size small. Okay, and then the leggings actually are available in lots of different colors, and the yellow is available. I'm gonna get it in a size small. Okay, and then the leggings actually are available in lots of different colors and the yellow is available.

2:27

I'm gonna get it in the muted khaki so that I can have the matching set. Also in the video, they unboxed a dress, the Enchanting Scallop A-Line Dress. This is $118 US. I'm gonna grab it in the black

2:39

so it's the exact same one from the video. Here is what the card is looking like $278 us before tax and shipping. Okay, so the whiskey order has arrived Very nice box the bags that this is packaged in are very thick plastic I don't think that this brand is too concerned about Sustainability or anything even just based on what the clothes are made of honestly a lot of times activewear companies aren't too concerned about sustainability or anything, even just based on what the clothes are made of. Honestly, a lot of times active wear companies aren't too worried about it

3:08

because they use a lot of polyesters, like kind of water wicking fibers. Okay, so this is the top that in the ad was yellow. So on the back here, it's got the scallop detail. This feels very nice. It's got a built-in bra here, which you can remove if you don't want the built-in bra

3:26

And it says on here made with love in China 70% nylon 30% spandex and then the leggings to go along with those they've got the little Rounded part around the butt. Okay, then here is the black dress This is the exact one that was in the video and I got everything in a size small. Kind of like the same material. Feels like a nice thick workout material. We gotta try it on. Okay, so I have the scalloped edge legging and top on.

3:54

Gonna give you a 360 just to take a peek at it on. Firstly, I do want to mention that this fabric is super nice. It's actually very soft and like the perfect thickness. Not too thin, not too thick. Actually, before we even get into it, let me just... Is it see-through? Not see-through from what I can tell. The color that they were really marketing on Pinterest was the yellow one, which if there's ever two colors that are see-through on me,

4:20

it's white and yellow. So I would be a little wary of that, but I think with this light green, no concern on being a see-through. I think this top is a lovely silhouette. As someone who absolutely adores turtlenecks, I think this is so cute. But if you're somebody who likes to look really put together

4:39

when you work out and it makes you feel good, this set definitely gives off that vibe. Even the leg ends in a scalloped edge. Like it's very pretty and it feels comfortable. And I'm happy to report too, it doesn't feel like it's trying to camel toe me,

4:54

but we must test it.

4:58

I actually just worked out yesterday, so I'm actually kind of sore,

5:01

but we got a parkour, parkour, parkour.

5:04

Wall sit, wall sit, wall sit into tumble.

5:10

High kick, back kick!

5:12

Now that I have this workout outfit on, this seems like the perfect time to tell you about the one-on-one personal training service I've been using for over two years. A big thank you to Trainwell for sponsoring this video. I genuinely use Trainwell for sponsoring this video. I genuinely use

5:25

Trainwell in my everyday life and I really, really like it. So let me tell you about it. So yeah, as I was saying, Trainwell is a one-on-one personal training service all done in the safety of your home through your phone. And your trainer is a real life person. They have a really good test that sets you up with a trainer that's gonna work well for you. I've been set up with Jill since the very beginning and I really really enjoy working with Jill. And you can bring up any of your goals or your concerns to your trainer and they'll integrate that into your workout. Or maybe if you have injuries you can also factor that in like if you have bad knees

5:58

they're not gonna give you like a bunch of jumping workouts. My trainer Jill does an amazing job at casually upping the intensity of my workouts. My trainer Jill does an amazing job at casually upping the intensity of my workouts. Every couple weeks she changes them and tailors them to be just a little more difficult and then I look at my progression over the years and what I'm doing now I would not have been able to be doing even like six months ago. Like hello? I can do a pistol squat now. Okay pressure's on now. Let me get this mat out of the way.

6:29

Now this part is the easy part. Getting up is hard.

6:32

Oh!

6:35

I'd like to thank Jill, and I'd like to thank Trainwell,

6:39

and I would like to thank...

6:41

my chicken legs.

6:43

Like a really good way to explain the progression that Jill put me on is it started with a lunge and then it became a weighted lunge and now it's a Bulgarian split squat. It's like building up to the difficult workout. So clearly working out through TrainWell,

6:57

I've been developing more muscle and strength, which is exactly what I wanted when I first started with Jill. The nice thing about the TrainWell app too is I'm not very tech savvy and I really like how the app is very user-friendly.

7:09

You have your calendar and then it'll be marked which dates your trainer has set for you to work out. And you just click on the workout, start it, and it begins. It's timed and it'll give you sound alerts when it's time to switch workouts.

7:21

That's time. And my favorite part, they don't just tell you what exercise to be doing, they also show you. So it's nice to see the visual. And yeah, just having that real person trainer check in on you, it is the accountability that I need. If you are at all enticed to try out TrainWell, take the quiz to find your perfect trainer and scan my QR code for 14 days free training or click my link down below. I'm just trying to get a camel toe. Okay, let's see.

7:52

It's not riding up. That's a check from me. Okay, next we have the dress. So obviously the repeating theme is the scalloped edge on here and also the scalloped edge at the bottom. If you're not a fan of scallops,

8:05

just go ahead and run away from this athletic wear brand because they love scalloped edge and I just so happen to love scallops too. Built-in bra, I personally really like that. I love the long sleeves but I am shocked because this doesn't have like built-in shorts. It's truly just a dress. I wouldn't be able to really actually play tennis or something because I would be worried that the skirt would fly up. So just be aware of that. If you're like me and you thought this would have shorts, it doesn't.

8:33

And it says whiskey on the back. I really want to know what whiskey stands for, or if I'm saying it wrong. Can I just say when I was filming the review of the video, it didn't even really set in how expensive these pieces are because I think I was still thinking of them in Canadian dollar, but it's actually US dollar so in Canadian it's a lot more. Like for a top, this is very pricey and although the cut and design is cute, it's still a synthetic garment so it's pretty pricey. Like it's cute, but this is a big investment, these sets. So you have to really like them.

9:05

Okay, amongst the photos, we have found yet another ad.

9:14

Now this is the ads that on Pinterest kind of drive me up the wall a little bit, because it's like, you're sort of feasting on people's insecurities, which I totally understand. That's a marketing marketing tactic but I don't have to respect or like it I don't know I just don't like when they like show someone with wrinkles and then they're like this cream will fix you you need to be fixed put this on

9:37

your face and you're fixed I just don't like that but this is a instant wrinkle free skin miracle power wrinkle fix I've actually heard of this brand before they had a very popular foundation Which I actually think Jan from the office was like the face of for a while And that's why I'm remembering and I mean like all of these Pinterest ads that I see it is a pretty wild Before and after and I do want to see if it works, but my hopes are not super high

10:04

So here is their site. You can subscribe and get it for 10% less. I'm just gonna do the regular price. $69. It's a bestseller already. It's new and a bestseller. Oh my gosh, 28,000 reviews. Got some pretty intriguing before and afters. So we're gonna try it. It's worth mentioning that this was $69. That is a pretty penny for a primer of sorts, but based on the Pinterest video,

10:33

it's going to perfectly smooth out wrinkles. I'm gonna try it on myself and also on my mom. I have some wrinkles here and there on my face. I have a wrinkle on my face and it is basically the result of me frowning all the time. I'm just like always in this like deep thought like this.

10:52

And when someone's telling me a story I'm just like... like this is my thinking face. The packaging is pretty sleek. It's a glass container, comes with this little stick. It's magnet which is kind of cool and then on the inside it looks like a gummy silicone-y situation. Okay we're zoomed in really really close. I want to be as close as possible so that you can see my skin, you know all the texture on my skin. I've got some pretty deep pores on my nose. This is my deep in thought face. It's not super noticeable,

11:25

but if you look at me from the side, see that's indented in my face. So I'm gonna take a little bit of this and I'm gonna put it on my nose like that. Okay, it's very thick. I'm just gonna put it on one side of my nose.

11:38

Here's the side without, here's the side with primer now, obviously it didn't do any color correcting So let me just take a little bit more and put it on my forehead. Okay, I'm just gonna blend that into my frown wrinkle So now I'm gonna do my full face of makeup. Okay, I have my full face of makeup on now I'm gonna take this mirror and I'm gonna look at my face Honestly, you guys I'm not just saying this. I don't think this made a difference.

12:08

So here's very close up the side with the wrinkle filler, and then here's the side without. So as you can see with the pores on my nose, this side seems to be as smooth as this side. I do still wanna try it on my mom because the Pinterest video was very convincing.

12:26

It's smooth, it filled, it transformed, and it was $70. So let's get my mom in here and let's see if she has any more success than me. That's the wrinkle I have. It's the line that shows she cares. It's the line of this. I think expressive faces get lots of lines. Yeah, we have incredibly expressive faces. There's something to be said about an expressive face.

12:51

That's right.

12:52

It also makes me nervous. If someone's too straight face,

12:55

I'm like, I'm doing cartwheels just to make sure they're hearing what I'm saying or understanding.

13:00

Like, it's like, I'm like, hello, are you there?

13:03

Wouldn't you rather me look at you like this? Okay, we're gonna start with your forehead So, let's see cuz this is like what they did in the video. They were like and just like that It was gone. And once you wash your face, is it gone? It's not repairing it though, right? No It's just like crack filler. Exactly. I, it's just like crack filler. Exactly.

13:27

I think it's just like blurring it a little.

13:29

This is the talking mouth.

13:33

I feel like I'm turning into marionette mode.

13:37

I'm seeing something here, though, honestly. Like, see here.

13:38

Do you want to try putting some on? And so you can see what it does real time. I'll put a dab here and you blend it in.

13:46

Okay. Oh, definitely the pores are better. I don't put full face makeup on just because it shows lines more.

13:56

I don't think this is like super innovative. And I think it looks better before you put makeup on it. Because once you put makeup on it, it looks kind of cakey.

14:04

See? See? See? Yeah.

14:16

Okay, looking through everything we have the Effortless Beauty BT Art Box Nails nails So this one definitely caught my eye because it's nails that look professionally done From home and this video makes me feel like you can do it quickly And I guess how it works is you have these Pre-made tips and you'll put kind of like the gel underneath and stick them on and it'll cure under the light so that it sticks So it's almost like a press-on nail but with more adhesive. I'm gonna go to the kids to start with because I don't already have the light or the step one and two so let's see

14:54

what we can do. And this comes with the light, the nail file, steps one and two, and the whole box for $68 Canadian by the way. Okay, the BT Art Box supplies has arrived and my nails are bare and the camera angle is above my head. Hey, I am so excited. I honestly love doing my nails,

15:16

but I never do them unless I'm filming something. So this is going to be a fun day. First thing is the UV LED nail lamp. Then we have the French Protecting Duo Coats. So we have number one and number two. This is the gel glue.

15:34

Then we have a nail file. And then this is the moment we've been waiting for. These are the tips. Here they are. So we have the light, little bit darker, kind of like a beige.

15:46

Oh, wow.

15:47

And then the pink.

15:48

Honestly, when you consider the price of this, like $68 to get this many potential sets, if this works good, this'll be a decent bang for your buck, I feel. Okay, now I can try and figure out how to do this. Apply nail dehydrator.

16:03

I don't have nail dehydrator. Um, I don't have a nail dehydrator. What even is that? There's a few things on the instructions that it didn't come with so I'm just gonna go grab all that Okay, grab some alcohol cotton pads, and I actually do have one of these as well now. I don't own nail dehydrator We must move forward without so first we're going to go on my nail like this look away if you're nailed I feel like this is a horrible thing to do just a little just to rough it up a bit That's what the instructions are telling me to do and then I'm gonna clean up the dust with this

16:36

Like so apply a nail dehydrator. We have to skip that I'm kind of feeling like we could do a fun little ombre potentially. Oh my gosh My pinky is the smallest option. Okay little pinky There's my left hand right there. Now I'm gonna do the right hand, but I'm gonna do it inverted So I'm gonna do the pinky is the darkest so okay. Here's my hands now I just need to grind the inside of them so they will grab onto my hands.

17:06

I think the rougher they are, the better they'll stay on. Apply a thin layer of gel nail glue on your nails. Cure for 45 seconds. By the way, this doesn't feel like the utmost quality, but it feels okay. I don't like that I have to do a single nail,

17:19

but that's okay. Just a thin layer. That's a thin layer, I would say. I'm gonna stick it in here and cure. We're curing, we're curing, we're curing.

17:32

Done.

17:33

So I have to take this gel glue again and I put it on not only my nail again, but I also put it on the nail bed here. Okay. And then I'm gonna press this on. I'm like pressing it down as it's setting. I think once it's set a little bit I think I can take my other finger out because I'm like holding it down as you can see. Okay, it feels like very stuck

17:57

on. I'm actually a little bit scared. This one feels like it's on here for good. So then there's this little piece from ripping it off. So I'm just going to file that down like so. That came off very easily. And now I'm gonna put the top coat on and then I'm going to cure it again and we'll see.

18:15

Oh my gosh, these look like good. Okay, Pinterest. Um, are you seeing that? That literally looks like a professional nail. I'm live laugh loving that. That looks incredible.

18:30

Now, if I had a bigger light right now, I could zip through these faster, but I am forced to do one nail at a time. I'm definitely gonna have to wear these for like an entire week and let you guys know if they fly off.

18:44

I did a review for brands that wanted to sponsor me and I reviewed, I think it was Beetle nails and they turned out really good, but they unfortunately popped off like three days later so they didn't last super long. So I think with nails, it's important to know

18:58

how they're actually gonna last. So I'll be sure to do that. Okay.

19:04

Whoa, I can feel my alter ego coming in.

19:08

Just gonna make sure to coat the whole thing.

19:11

Okay.

19:13

Here they are.

19:15

Wow.

19:16

These look pretty incredible. I'm gonna quickly do my other hand off camera, but I'm definitely gonna do a wear test with these.

19:24

β™ͺβ™ͺβ™ͺ feather hand off camera, but I'm definitely gonna do a wear test with these

19:34

My gosh wait that just like unlocked something for me. What is that?

19:40

My gosh does anyone remember that Polly Pocket game?

19:48

Good times. Anyways, I'm done the nails. They took actually a decent while, I think about an hour and a half. I think I could go quicker if I had a larger light. So I'm gonna now wear these until they fly off. And I am not someone who goes easy on my nails, so keep that in mind with my review. Looks-wise, I'm'm incredibly pleased I honestly think this will be something that I use when I go to like a wedding or a vacation And I want my nails to look extra pretty and I personally enjoy the art of doing my nails So I could see myself getting into this Guys I have some unfortunate news. It's three days in and I have lost. Oh no nail. I'm honestly

20:27

really bummed because it was going so well. Also if you can hear that noise. I'm washing bedding. Anyway, the nails were going so well. I could kind of feel this one coming off for a while and finally it let go. Yeah, but three days in. I was just getting ready to film and I grabbed my camera battery and oh, five days in and we've lost two. That's like not that bad, especially considering how rough on my nails I've been. I'm not taking it easy on these. Okay, you guys, it is officially one week since I put

21:04

these nails on and I'm pretty pleased, not with the lighting of this shot, but I'm pleased with the nails. Let me show you. Here is my left hand. As you can see, all the nails are still on. The only thing is just like signs of wear and tear and this middle one is going to come off soon.

21:22

And here's my right hand. Ignore my finger that was broken, that will never heal. So I'm missing two nails but the other three are standing strong. Now I was not going easy on these nails. I was literally in the garage lifting like giant bags of clothing and like grabbing them with my nails, like I'm not easy on nails. So the fact that I even have a full hand, when I consider press-on nails usually fall off of me within like five hours These being able to sit here for a week and only lose two with the way I've been treating them. I'm super impressed

21:54

I'm definitely gonna be using these again and also I have some press on nails and I'm gonna use the glue and the UV light and just glue them on like this has Opened my eyes to the way I can do this.

22:05

β™ͺβ™ͺ

22:11

Okay, so here we have a L'Anal Fitness Pilates board from home, which Pilates is so hot right now, and Pilates reformers are really expensive. The classes are very expensive. So the idea of getting this more affordable one to be able to do it at home I'm sure this has caught a lot of eyes and it's one of those products that I feel like might have like a low success

22:32

Rate on actually being good and being usable. So I'm gonna try it out. So here we are on the L'Hanel fit transform your body in the comfort of your home. And this is the Pilates Reformer set. $436, now 216 Canadian, by the way. $436 for this would have been very steep. Order by midnight for a guaranteed free gift. Sweat belt, Pilates socks, and $40 gift card.

22:59

Okay. I honestly, though, don't really feel like I need some of these freebies, so I'm gonna remove... I don't need the sweat belt. So I'm just gonna remove that. I removed it but then it popped back in up here. Okay, remove.

23:17

I am forced to take the free gift. Okay, I'm excited to try this out. We'll see. Okay, my Lehanel fit has arrived. This is the Pilates board that claim that gyms are a waste of money,

23:30

but this is $232.

23:33

Let's see.

23:34

Let's see.

23:36

Okay.

23:37

I mean, it looks exactly like the ad and it showed up.

23:41

It's not a scam.

23:42

My absolute biggest confliction about this device is if it can offer me something that putting a slippery towel on the ground won't offer me. Every single workout that was shown on the Pinterest ad, if you just set a towel on the ground and extended out your leg or put two under your arms

24:01

and went for it, I wanna see how good this actually works because I know for a fact I could do these exercises with just like a towel so this machine has to make it better in some way to be worth the money. So I'm gonna work out and let you know. I'm gonna try and touch on every single stretch or workout exercise type that was shown in the Pinterest ad to make sure that they're good. I was setting this up today and my mom came in she was like,

24:26

oh my gosh what is that? That's so cool!

24:32

So if I'm going off of that reaction, this probably is of serious interest so I'm gonna try to really get to the bottom of this. Position a yoga mat under your reformer. Done. Wrap the sweat belt around your waist to enhance your workout sweat five times. Well, I mean, I tried to avoid the free gifts, but I got it anyway, so.

24:53

I don't personally like stuff like this because it makes me too hot, but I will wear it. And actually, I wonder if I should put on the socks too. I had grabbed my runners, but maybe I should just wear these. These are cute. They've got grip on the bottom okay, so

25:08

Looks like we're supposed to be like this Put your hands on it like this Okay, you know what I didn't realize in here when you push it forwards There's actually like a rubber band here. So it creates some tension So already i'm kind of debunking the thing I was saying about just putting the towel on the ground because this actually has An elastic to create that tension

25:43

Okay, the very first thing i'm noticing and I thought this might be a thing where the unit here folds the trap gets a little Cotton it like see that It's not like super smooth over that it's not a big deal just something to know This is actually a pretty serious workout. I mean if you've done Pilates before, you know, it's a lot,

26:07

oh!

26:08

I can't do this.

26:08

It's a lot of core strength. And we're gonna be putting our elbows here and our knees like this. I believe you go all the way out and up.

26:22

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

26:24

Oh, and actually, I can connect these together so that these move as a unit also this little gadget here is so you can like set up your phone right there okay that way I can watch a show while doing this okay now I want to try the first one my feet on it. This is hard. It's not like a lot of tension. Like you know on like a typical reformer board you can up the tension

26:56

with the different metal bands. This one's just one tension and I would say the tension is low. Okay but there's also some standing ones so let's try those. This one is get flexible AF.

27:08

It's like a foot on and then like this. I'm getting flexible AF. Okay, that was pretty much all the workouts that they showed on the Pinterest ad, but I know there's one other one that I wanted to try. Cause I want to try these.

27:26

Because these didn't get highlighted at all on Pinterest.

27:29

So I want to see what the dealio is.

27:32

Okay.

27:33

I'm scared this is going to snap. And I'm not going to lie, the little metal thing here doesn't give me a ton of, a ton of confidence. Oh yes. This is a good of confidence. Oh, yes. This is a good add on, especially because they didn't even talk about this on the Pinterest ad.

27:48

And then it's supposed to be really easy to just pack up. Like that.

27:52

Done.

27:53

Pretty cool.

27:54

I do think for the price, it gives you a reformer of sorts at home. Obviously it's made out of plastic and it's not like the smoothest unit, but I would say it's pretty decent honestly You guys I had to pop in here for a little update because I was working on the thumbnail for this video

28:12

And I was searching like this pilates board So I was gonna put it in the thumbnail and look what I found First of all, I found this board on timu for 104 dollars Which I thought was interesting because that's like half the price of the half price from the website. So I was like, okay, you know what, this might be dropship, so let me look it up on Alibaba because that's where like a lot of dropship things you can buy in bulk.

28:34

And suspiciously enough, here it is for $22 to $27. What's going on here? What is going on here on this day? I'm not superstitious, just a little stitious.

28:49

This is not gonna be the first heated eyelash curler

28:58

that we try, but it is gonna be the first one like this because at first I actually thought it was a mascara because it was really coating the lashes but I guess it's A curling wand, but it seems like everybody who's trying in the videos have mascara on so that's another thing to consider It looks like it could be a torture device. So let's let's just see. Ah, yes Here's the heated eyelash curler and here's the model wearing fake eyelashes, obviously.

29:25

I do think the idea of a heated eyelash curler could be good, especially for people who have very straight, stubborn lashes. So I will offer my eyeball up to test it out. Okay, here I am with my $33 eyelash curler. I have my full face of makeup on,

29:42

except my mascara because I have to use this before that. Here's the packaging It's very very light feels like nothing at all also comes with a charger and a lash spoolie Okay, so here's the unit

29:56

Yeah

29:56

So I'm gonna open it and I believe the heating elements right there that silver piece that'll heat up so that I can put my Lash in like this and just curl it up like in the Pinterest video Why don't we turn this on? Okay, the blue light turned on so I think it's heating up Okay, and this button right here is the temperature indicator and it is now turned pink Okay, you can click it three times for different heat. So blue is the lowest 50 then the mix is 65 and the highest is 80.

30:25

So I'm gonna keep mine at 50. You know what I should do actually? I should put mascara on one without using the curling device and then put mascara on the other one with the curling device. That way we can compare and contrast what it did. This is the controlled variable.

30:41

Now I think this should be hot enough. Oh, it is hot to the touch. Okay. I can definitely feel the heat close to my eye. Okay, at first I thought I was gonna see no difference, but I actually do see very subtle difference. Both sides are definitely curled, but I feel like this one at the root

31:12

is flipped up a little bit more. Do you see that? I don't personally love the idea of having a hot tool that's reaching 50 degrees this close to your eyes, because if you go even too close to the base, you could kind of grab the skin on your eye

31:28

and just really quickly you could burn it. Cause this is actually going to a higher temperature than I thought it was going to. Be so careful don't burn yourself.

31:39

Careful.

31:42

Why are you moving so much?

31:45

Do you want me to do it for you? I think I can do it. Is it doing anything? I feel like those ones are looking curlier. Really?

31:47

I think they're very subtle.

31:48

Oh yeah, honestly it doesn't look different on camera.

31:49

No. Yeah, like can you see from the side?

31:51

Let's see the other one.

31:52

No. I'm not sure if I can do it. No, yeah, like can you see from the side? Let's see the other one Okay, so we have this thing that you put on your face to stop wrinkles So I don't know which one came first the wrinkle filler video that I saw that we tried in this video and then now I'm getting this one suggested to me. I think it's a blessing to age and with age comes wrinkles and I think that if we could all get in the mindset of it being normal and accepting it and it's fine

32:38

and you can be beautiful with the wrinkles and it's just like I could talk about it for a while. But anyway, this is another wrinkle product. So this is the Wrinkle Removal and Skin Resurfacing Patches. So in the video, they kind of showed that you stick them on and then it doesn't allow your face to scrunch, like maybe while you're sleeping or something like that.

32:58

Like for instance, me when I sleep, my whole face is like smushed together. I sleep so hard on my face Remove your wrinkles overnight without going under the knife and we've got like some photos I mean see in this photo. It looks like they're smiling and in this photo They're not which obviously when you smile You're gonna get around your eyes a little bit and I'm only going really into this because I get sent stuff like this all the

33:22

time from like Sorry, grandma my grandma because she's the biggest like she falls for stuff like this all the time from like sorry grandma my grandma because she's the biggest Like she falls for stuff like this. She's like I could get this and then my wrinkles would be gone. I'm like you're 84 Yeah, so here's the before and after like this is actually kind of insane I don't know how true these are but like this person's raising their eyebrows They've got lots of wrinkles here and then they're raising their eyebrows and apparently nothing

33:45

That looks like the face of someone who's just had Botox, but apparently not apparently if these little Pieces of sheets also this statement don't let age erase those beautiful features. I Don't think this is a good message for women, but I do want to debunk this product if it works or not So I'm gonna buy the full kit. Okay Interesting thing happened with this Nova skincare So I purchased these silicone face sheets

34:16

March 5th and so much time passed and passed and passed and I was like, yep It was a scam $65 wave it goodbye. I just got scammed. And then randomly in mid June, I got an email that my order shipped.

34:33

And not like a week after that, this baby arrived with, you guessed it, the silicone sheets and this conducting gel. Maybe that's what I stick them on with okay here is what comes in the package so there's two of these

34:49

you have like a forehead one t-zone and then two bottles of the conducting gel I have no idea what this is it doesn't say anything on the tubes and for $65 this feels like a ripoff

35:04

okay how to use.

35:05

Clean skin with an oil-free cleansing formula and be left completely free of product and residue. Apply Nova activating gel or similar water-based facial gel. So take a look. Here's my face before. That will be my biggest indicator.

35:18

Okay, so let's see what this conducting gel situation is. Oh, it's interesting. It's like very water-based siliconey. See, and I'm also wondering how many times over I can use these. Like, is it like a one and done?

35:33

Because this would be very expensive if that's the case. Wear for 15 to 20 minutes or overnight

35:39

for more dramatic results. 15 minutes?

35:41

This would not do anything for 15 minutes. What? They're definitely thicker than I thought they were gonna be So in the video she like grabbed her face like this Okay, if I try to make my concerned frown face I Can't do it. Also, it's very sticky. So I'm not actually worried about it falling off my face Like I just feel like I wouldn't be able to sleep with this all on

36:07

I'm a very delicate sleeper and the smallest little things will irritate me And I feel like we should also start the discussion of like blocking pores Because underneath these my pores definitely cannot breathe. Okay, just for the sake of the video, I'm gonna do smile lines, even though I have nothing to say about smile lines. If I get a wrinkle from smiling too much, so freaking be it. I feel like it's forcing me to frown.

36:39

Okay, we're gonna go for this. I'll just have to be serious all day. I don't know if I have the effort to do this, but I'm gonna test them. Come on in. Oh, what is this? Oh, hey! So we're gonna wear it for the entire workday, eight hours. Oh, wow. And then we're gonna see how it goes. I'm glad, because I'm going to the post office later What? I don't mind I go places like that. Do you mind if I wipe your face?

37:09

No, of course not. Cuz if you're oily it won't stick. I'm squinting so much She asked me a question and then sticks that in my mouth. So you want down here? Yeah

37:21

Like

37:23

Stop it down here. Yeah like... Oh my god. Stop. So, we need to put a little bit of this conducting gel on you.

37:30

Okay. How does it feel to have that on your face?

37:32

I'm not even kidding, it feels horrible and I'm not gonna last that long. This one's gotta go.

37:37

Now. God, it's stuck on there so hard.

37:41

Like you want it flat when you put it on, right?

37:44

Yeah. How's that feel?

37:46

Feels soothing. I feel like when Avatar or something, you know.

37:50

You do.

37:51

I'm gonna be your dad.

37:53

How's it feel? It feels great, honestly. I feel like you're trying it. Like you're trying it hard. Like this one wants to like wrinkle bad. These are gonna be hanging on by a thread by lunchtime.

38:08

Do you want it like over here?

38:10

Mm-hmm.

38:11

Get that smile.

38:11

Yeah, my marionette chin.

38:13

Ha ha ha ha ha. Ha ha ha ha ha.

38:19

Well guys, we'll see how today goes. We're gonna do eight hours on the clock. Mine's gonna be easy, cuz I only have three on and they're not super bothersome. I can imagine you're feeling a lot more I'm feeling it. Okay. Well, we'll see. Okay

38:34

What there's nothing wrong here I'm anti-aging as we speak All day.

38:47

Your neck looks...

38:49

It feels really weird.

38:51

If this works, I'll be pretty impressed.

38:54

It won't.

38:55

It won't. It won't.

39:01

It won't. Okay, so I'm just here editing with my little bird cage. Okay, this one's fine. I think I could actually sleep in this one, but these ones are driving me out of the world.

39:18

My face is feeling very sweaty. I feel like these things can start sliding around at any moment.

39:24

A few moments later.

39:26

This little guy has fallen off here. It's just hanging. Like I feel like those little ones are gonna be a problem. Like this one, I can move around on my lip.

39:35

These babies are not moving. And this one is definitely keeping my concern face away.

39:42

I'm not sure about this. I wonder if I'd be able to sleep with this on.

39:47

We were just talking about how something so small can ruin your entire day. I think wearing it throughout the day isn't the move. Maybe trying to sleep in it would be better. But also falling asleep, ugh. Like I just, the underneath the eye ones

40:02

are really bothering me. I literally can't, I need to get these off We may be supporting it a little oh, hey actually Actually it is looking quite flat isn't it I mean, I literally didn't frown all day because of it

40:20

Okay

40:20

So here's my face after wearing it for an entire day And then you can see it side by side to where we started it feels good to frown you're putting it back. I don't care

40:33

I

40:34

Feel like they need washing I was sweating so much under there. I feel like it worked Did it not work? I think as, as soon as I start talking, it'll be back again.

40:46

But if you did that religiously, like every day. It's a lot of work, and not to mention, these were 65 bucks.

40:54

Right?

40:54

You gonna pay for it?

40:56

How'd it do?

40:58

Are you loving it?

40:59

It smoothed the lines right out. You liking it? It actually, like I hate to say it,

41:06

but I think it did something.

41:07

But I just don't know if it's worth it. They were expensive and they're just like pieces of plastic. I don't really know if I want to get into that.

41:14

Get some tape. What was this? I don't know what that was.

41:16

There's no ingredients on this entire thing.

41:19

Yeah, that's.

41:20

This is a little suspicious. That is suspect right there. It took four months to get here and there's no ingredients

41:26

It says conducting gel. Conducting gel. Is it for a train? Is it for a conductor? Maybe that was supposed to go in the caboose

41:36

That meant like the train

41:45

Let us know how that goes.

41:47

You're welcome.

41:48

Thanks for this beautiful gift.

41:50

Thank you. Thanks for stopping by.

41:55

Okay, you guys.

41:56

I'm gonna try sleeping with this tonight. We'll see the results in the morning, and I'll tell you how my sleep was. Honestly, just having this one patch isn't as irritating as all the rest. So I think I'll be able to fall asleep. Excuse me, I'm working.

42:13

Can't you see I'm working?

42:15

I just woke up.

42:16

Like weirdly, not that hard to sleep with this on, but I feel like it's shifted as I slept. Like I feel like I have been frowning all night. See how I'm like able to frown because it's just plastic-y silicone as it gets warm it's like easy to just move it like look I'm able to just move it around now. Oh yeah look I've been frowning! So you can kind of see especially with the light on this side,

42:45

this baby did not stop me from frowning. But okay, I'm gonna not wear this one night and see if this is what I look like in the morning. And I'll film it in the exact same spot with light coming in from the window.

42:57

Oh my gosh, I just woke up. Here's what my face looks like. I was sleeping directly on my face. I feel like it doesn't look that different

43:15

Okay, last but certainly not least we have a ad from merit They're just basically putting on their makeup like very simply but the product that's really being highlighted from what I can tell is the blush stick Flush bomb now in new shades. I really like this pink. This pink is beautiful Stockholm and then this is a new one in Le Bon Bon $41 each so definitely a high-end blush. I feel like this is potential Okay, I got my Merit package here.

43:47

Now it actually came in this corduroy bag. I mean, it definitely gives off the vibe of elegance, which when you're paying $40 for a blush, maybe you want that. But I already have a lot of reusable bags. I'm kind of at the point where

44:00

I don't need any more of these. Like it's a nice touch, but I don't personally need this. It does feel quality though. And it gives that vibe of elegance.

44:07

So I get it.

44:08

Okay, so here are the two flush balms. $40 each, so $80. And I'm happy to report they are clean, vegan, and cruelty-free. Okay, so we have the two shades here. We have Le Bon Bon and Stockholm.

44:21

The packaging is cute. It's gold and it's plastic. And then you just take this off and reveal the blush. Before I make the mistake of putting this all over my face, I'm gonna put it on my arm just to see. Okay, that one is quite fuchsia. Okay, that one's maybe more what I'm looking for.

44:38

But those are pretty. Oh, I really like this one. I'm just gonna dot it. The one thing with cream products is I don't want it to lift my foundation underneath So hopefully this doesn't now on the in the package. It just said to blend it with my fingers So that's what I'm gonna do do the same for the other side

44:54

This is kind of more like the type of product that I would like to see more on Pinterest ads because sometimes I find Pinterest ads are a little bit questionable, but I would prefer it to be Reliable just like brands. I'm gonna put a little bit on my nose. I might regret this but I'm doing it definitely pigmented Easy to blend which I like let me just finish the rest of my makeup and I'll be back Okay, so definitely merit is a real brand. It's a legit brand. This isn't one of those Pinterest scam promoted ads that we run into every once in a while. This is the real deal.

45:30

This is a really nice cream blush. I typically on a day-to-day basis wear mainly powder products. So it's a little out of the ordinary for me, but I have tried enough cream blushes that I'm confident in saying that this is a good one.

45:43

Definitely more on the pricey side, but I feel like that's because it's a higher end brand. Like Merit is more pricey just in general. But yeah, I really like this product. I'm happy Pinterest suggested it to me. At this point, we have reviewed a lot of Pinterest products

46:02

and they always seem to be hit and miss. I feel like this video is again an example of that. We have some products I really like and then some that I do not like. Or maybe do not like is not the right word but just like doesn't work for me. It's to the point where when I'm scrolling I'll think I'm looking at just like a normal Pinterest feed and there'll be like six ads on my page. Like more ads than even just pictures. Also, before you leave, I don't want you to forget,
