Happy early spring everyone. Today I am sharing a few things I picked up. One item was a gift from Sephora for my Birthday, one was a much needed moisturizer, and the other was my first purchase on Tik Tok. I hope you enjoy.
And on another note, have any of you noticed any changes on any of the main social media platforms? I have to say I can see why so many people have stepped away from YouTube. It is the platform that requires the most amount of work and in which you get the least amount of ROI. As I spoke about in my last post I feel like the platform is leaning more and more towards sensationalist videos and the like.
I am not sure what happened this past summer but they did something to algorithm and now it is absolutely awful. If the views on my videos get any lower I might as well stop posting on this platform all together. I have put more work into the videos themselves, the thumbnails, and the key words. And not only are things not improving, they are getting worse, much worse.
I was use to this on IG: the ever changing algorithm but I am getting fed up with it on ALL social platforms. Also, I have sneaking suspicion that Meta bought Tik Tok…

Belatedly, happy birthday!
I hope all of your birthday wishes have been coming true!
From some of my ancient recollections, shopping at Sephora can be a treat.
Yes, some of the multiple changes to Google’s and YouTube’s algorithms are HORRIBLE.
Now, after watching any of my own videos using Safari’s private browsing feature, the recommendations for my next watch are often for right-wing tabloid “news” propaganda clips. Yuck.
Best wishes fro a wonderful April!
Thank you so much. Yes it is treat but can also being overwhelming LOL. Wow that is crazy really?? The categories suck. For example the category I often put my videos are style and how to which is a ridiculous category. Style should be a category on its own. “How to” is a HUGE category the only category that would be bigger would be “life”. There is a how to video for everything from unclogging a drain, how to do your taxes, how to take better photos, how to write a good cover letter, how to do corn rows. NONE of which has to do with style. I mention that last one b/c when I looked up a video I did on thrift shopping this one of the videos my video was suggested on. Umm OK. That makes sense…why would some one who searched on how to do corn rows want to see a video about thrift shopping?
The Too Faced set is great, and the price is very good too.
The Laneige moisturizer sounds very interesting.
I hope you enjoy your new cosmetics.
Happy weekend
I’ve never tried shopping on tik tok before. I most often shop from Amazon. This moisturizer looks lovely. ????

I always enjoy an unboxing! But holy cow, I used some Philosophy face and neck cream on my neck two nights ago and I broke out in hives from it. Thank god I only put it on my neck! Over the last 10 years, I’ve been having more and more allergic skin reactions to cosmetics, so I have to be careful. It makes me fearful to try new products.
I haven’t really noticed anything on YouTube but I don’t use it that much. As for Instagram, I rarely get any “likes” anymore. I use to get so many “likes” and new followers. Now nothing. Enjoy your new products!
Wonderful products! Thanks for sharing.
I invite you to visit my last post. Have a good week-end!
This palette is beautiful.
Happy belated birthday Allie! Those look like awesome products!
I think they bought TikTiok too! I’m annoyed and fed up!
