Products I buy vs. products I receive in PR | ALI ANDREEA

hi everyone welcome back to my channel i'm andrea ali for those of you who are new in here welcome in today's video i'm going to talk about products that i buy versus products that i receive in pr just because i'm a content creator does not mean that i do not buy products anymore there are a lot of products that i buy obviously there are a lot of products that i receive in pr and you're probably wondering like why do you buy since you received so much i could request obviously for products but the thing about my personalities that i am so i'm feeling so bad although there is a lot of value that i bring to you know the brand because i have all of you who are aware of new products or you know new launches everything that i'm sharing in here so i am aware of the value that i bring to the brand however i am very uncomfortable to ask for the products so usually what happens especially with the super expensive brands like lemare or sisley they would send me the product once i get the taste of it and then i am feeling just like too ashamed to ask and i just end up buying that's how it works but a lot of times it can be just out of impulse like i see it in the store i don't have the patience i want it right there right now i have posted this picture i'm gonna put it right here on instagram with uh just part of the product that i bought from sephora one day and a lot of you my dms exploded with messages from you telling me i want to see what you are buying from sephora so here i am i thought i should do like a whole video with things that i have bought this week with no further ado let's get into it this is the clarence extra firming body cream i go through body creams right now like crazy because i am pregnant and i need a lot of moisture on my body i'm using oils but i really really love body uh creams i've put it back in the box but the truth is i have already i've already used it i put it back in the box just when i realized that i wanted to film this video i took it back from the the basket where i put like all the boxes and yeah i love it i've used this cream before it's a repurchase and i have never received anything from this brand class everything that i have from them i buy it's a great body lotion not just for pregnant women but just you know like a good moisturizer what i love about this in particular is that i can apply it and then two minutes after i could take my clothes on without having the fear of staining my clothes so really good purchase fresh soy face cleanser if you're following my channel for a while you know that i love this cleanser it's a very very gentle one the brand sends me stuff however i needed it i saw it i bought it that's the end of it sizzlia anti-wrinkle concentrated serum this is like the next level brand from sicily it's a crazy expensive serum i've already started to use it the brand sent this to me quite a while ago i finished it probably about two weeks ago and i was just so in love with it that i really needed to purchase it to be honest with you i don't need this because i have at least five serums right now in my bathroom this is really not necessary for me but it's not a waste of money because i find myself excuses all the time to buy expensive products i really feel like it gives you a totally different texture of the skin the hydration stays on it's an amazing serum i love this i got the ceo glow so again sunday riley sends me products but i saw this and i was using already their serum and i wanted to try the face oil i was like let's give it a try it says it has advanced vitamin c turmeric to visibly brighten hydrate balance and glow so i really am looking forward to try this if you guys already tried this please let me know in the comments i would love to know your opinion very important thing courtesy of sephora i do have a card that i permanently have 25 off i find that this gives me a great discount and a lot of like freedom to choose the products i want to choose from sephora crazy about the black rose cream mask from cicely again the brand sent it to me and i still have some left but this is really like giving me fomo if i see that i'm coming to an end because it's such an amazing mask it's the only mask that um right after you apply it your skin will look different like immediately it's a super hydrating mask and i don't use it all the time because it's very expensive so for special occasions i love to use this uh yeah if you have not tried let me show you what this looks like if you haven't tried this yet best mask on the on the market really another thing that i wanted to buy and this is not just for myself it's mostly for my clients it's the black rose skin infusion cream and the reason why i love this cream especially for my clients is because it's very very lightweight especially for people who have oily or combination skin um i love to use this because it's hydrating but it's not too thick and my foundation will not like slip and melt it looks like this and you guys know it comes with like this little spoon i bought this out of curiosity this is the wishful honey whip peptide moisturizer from i wanted to say huda beauty but no it's wishful skin this is a brand the skincare brand that huda created like i said i bought it out of curiosity i haven't tried it yet you know you go to sephora you think like you're gonna get one or two products and you end up like getting a lot of it i want to try it i haven't tried it yet okay but i will let you know i've already started to use this cream because i had one in my makeup kit for my clients and then every single time um i wanted to use this i would reach out to my makeup kit and it was just so annoying and i'm like you know what i'm just gonna buy one for myself so this is the la mer the moisturizing soft cream and i've showed you guys this uh cream many times in my video i love it i love la mer i am a la mere lover and there is nothing i could do you cannot convince me that la mera is not good that is just marketing i really love it my skin feels amazing after i use especially like their whole routine i realized while i was in sephora that i have no uh dry texture spray i used to have this i love it me and my husband with both we both use this you know it does something to your hair like it makes it more fluffy and just a little bit more like effortless i love this if you haven't tried moroccan oil dry texture spray it's really good i got the gucci powder this is a product that i did not have and i really wanted to try it comes with this little puff in here just like their bronzing powder i love gucci and the truth is i've also reached out to this powder because they were asking me to do a partnership and some partnerships you know the brands send you the product to be like okay we want you to use this and this and this product and with other brands it would be like you know use whatever you want and we give you a budget and you could buy whatever you want with them i kind of had everything this was one product that i really wanted to try so i ended up getting this and this pencil this is a very beautiful light baby blue look at this isn't this gorgeous it's so beautiful i loved it when i saw this i'm like i need to have it i got an anastasia brow wiz in medium brown because although i have a lot of eyebrow products sometimes i miss this one and medium brown is the perfect color for me pat mcgrath lip gloss this is in peach perversion it's actually what i'm wearing right now on my lips combined with something else i wanted to keep the box so you could see what it looks like but yeah can you get me closer it's a fantastic lip gloss the color is just wow the next product is the fenty beauty ease drop and listen you guys this color is not my color it's way too dark number 12 i got yeah again they do send me products but i saw this i'm like they didn't send me this so i wanted to try it but um i knew the color it would be too dark for me you see i knew the color it would be too dark but i was thinking okay i will get number eight as well and i will mix it because this is 12 and with eight i thought it would be like a good color for me however they didn't have number eight in stock so i have to order that one until then i guess i cannot use it the next product again gala is sending me products but not too much skincare most like lipsticks and their powders i wanted to try the serum i think i've tried it like long time ago i saw this beautiful blue and i could not help it i'm like i need to see this on my in my bathroom so gorgeous this blue this is the intense hydration wrinkle plumper this is a product that i've ordered um from sephora and i asked them to have it sent in the store so i could pick it up this is the eve loom cleanser this is probably my very first balmy cleanser that i've ever used you guys know i love this i love the elements however we don't have elements in france so this was sort of easier for me to get eveloom does send me a lot of products however sometimes i have friends coming over you know i get excited that they get excited oh my god you have eveloom and i'm like just like take it and then i end up buying it for myself which is very stupid i know but yeah i had to get it i'm running very low on my makeup remover what i also really love about this is that it's coming with so this is the makeup this is the cleanser it looks like this has this very like solid balmy texture you take a little bit you warm it in between your hands and then you apply it on dry skin [Music] and then with this cloth which like how many times did i talk about this cloth you guys this is amazing it's so good that they had so many requests to sell this separately and now they do actually they do sell like a set of uh three muslin cloths you put them in the washing machine perfect i cannot tell you how easy you take your makeup off with this muslin cloth along with the makeup remover great too i would anytime spend my money on this now let's get into the products that i receive and i'm gonna start with this guerlain ah wait i messed it up okay this is what the package looks like it's really nice i haven't tried their lipsticks yet and i'm really not going to go into it because it's going to be a long video if i do okay just a little bit let's let's just see how this one is this is a new lipstick this is the kiss kiss shine bloom and for example this is oh [Music] love this color flower fever809 let's try another one eternal rose 219. it it's very hydrating but it's not like super high shine finish let me know if you guys want me to do like a whole video with the new lipsticks because there are a lot of launches when it comes to lipsticks another lipstick launch that i received from givenchy it's okay beautiful packaging i like these are so nice i don't want to throw them away i think that they're underestimated these lipsticks from uh givenchy in general that's the color that i've tried it's probably yeah then nude boise so i don't think they have new colors but this is a new formula so it's very very comfortable um velvety matte finish let's try another one rouge check this out beautiful right please comment down below if you want me to do another lipstick video i feel like like that's all i do i review lipsticks another thing from garland it's another kiss kiss box looks like this this is the kiss kiss tender [Music] this is the kiss kiss tender mat again beautiful box that i never want to throw away actually you know what i could use this as a jewelry box it's so pretty let's get them out of here so let me try it on here there are only three so it's fine we could try these yeah i should have been smarter with the placement but these are the colors these are very very get-long colors okay next thing is the lantern d from givenchy this is the rouge version i received this when i went to their event it was so nice the event because they had someone in there like a specialist in in fragrance and she described so nice this uh fragrance plus she gives she gave me to smell like each and every note that i had was amazing it's a little bit more on the sweet side to be completely honest with you i didn't give it a real try on myself but i will and i will let you guys know how this one smells on me by redo sundays this is a hair perfume speaking of which i love hair perfumes i think i have a few from kylie but this one smells pretty nice too i really really wanted to talk about this brand this is called cure bazaar paris i bought their nail polish so they the only thing that they do is nail polish maybe you recognize this from my stories so i bought their nail polish and obviously i posted them on stories to show you guys the new colors that i got and they were so nice and they sent me a message and they said hey you know thank you so much for posting us we would love to send you some more nail polishes although i i almost never apply nail polish myself because i suck at it however they send me some really really nice colors really nice right how cute are they this is their organic cuticle oil oh how sweet how sweet i hope they they get to see this video because i really wanted to thank them it's such a kind thing you know when a brand sees that you are actually you know loving genuinely loving their stuff and then they send you more stock so thank you so much i don't know if you guys are familiar with this brand this is called christoph robert and they've sent me quite a few products for the hair like this cleansing volumizing paste smells strong it looks like this with rose extracts instant root lifting clay to foam shampoo good good good good they've also sent the regenerating mask looks like this that's quite a lot of product this is big this is more subtle it's for dry and damaged hair i love their stuff i use their um alloy shampoo and conditioner it's really really nice and then this is the cleansing purifying scrub with sea salt soothing detox treatment shampoo okay so this is again shampoo oh i love this smell this is sensitive or oily scalp ah that's not me um my sculpt is so dry no that's not me but but everything else i could use thank you christopher also sent me this hydrating leave-in mist i haven't um seen it this is the one with uh aloe vera glossy sent me their milky jelly cleanser this is conditioning face wash i've never used this um before so i'm excited and then like i said fresh do send me stuff it's just that um sometimes i like to buy their stuff this is creme ancienne with white truffle overnight mask beautiful beautiful packaging nice right comes with this little spoon i love it another thing that fresh sent me is this advanced recovery lip mask i have so many lip masks that i actually don't want to start this but let's just see how it smells it's not a very strong scent very very subtle so this is a type of mask that you don't rinse it off it's like a bomb i got a bunch of milk products like they're hydrating cream refresh spray cooling water eye patches electric glossy lip plumper i've used this before but in different colors and i loved it also their primer i've used the grip primer it's nice this one is really really nice you understand you guys like there are so many products that i get to try how can i have just like one favorite how can i love just one moisturizer or one mascara or one lipstick impossible absolutely impossible i love so many because i also test so many i have this brand that i've never heard of hues i don't know how to pronounce this it says matcha cbd machine okay this is real matcha okay this is this is real matcha i have i had no clue i thought it's like a cream with matcha but no it's like the real thing i'm not a big macho drinker i mean if i have the chance to drink it i like it but i don't make it myself jouer sent me their soft focus hydrate and set powder which i've used already in my videos but one of the things that i love about jouer is that they really are very careful on the products that content creators really love so for example you know i love uh the essential high qual the essential high coverage liquid concealer from them so they always resend me that one so i'm never out of it that's a very very good strategy and then they've also sent me essential lip enhancer shine balm it's this color in rose i've already started one of this lip enhancer so i am i don't want to start the new one and then this is their long wear cream lip liner in phone because they know that i love phone and see enough from them so they stock up love it love it thank you so much joey a few more stuff and i am done i got gummies from this brand i think this is a french brand it's called epicu gummies for hair and nails magic in the hair i haven't tried them i'm not going to try them during the pregnancy but i did receive them so thank you this is a kit with a white uh sculpting gua sha i already have like two washers so i'm probably gonna give this to someone if you use the gua sha it's a great investment if you don't like don't even think about it and when i say if you use it like if you remember to use it morning or night it's really a great tool but it's it's not like an unnecessary investment in my opinion ulle henriksen wrinkle blur eye gel cream just received this um and i haven't had the chance to try it looks like this the manicurist gave me a few nail polishes i don't know if you guys are watching uh my stories on instagram as well but uh last week or maybe this is going to be like two weeks ago um i visited their salon they have a salon in the 10th uh here in paris and what's really interesting about them is that they have created this nail polish which is like a hybrid between um the classic nail polish and the gel one uh without the nasty ingredients so as you probably know the gel nail polish in time it will damage your nails that's what they say i've been doing gel nail polish for the last 11 years my nails are still okay but i guess they do have some chemicals in the in the gel nail polish so they have created a clean formula that will not damage your nails you still need the lamp to dry it however when you remove it you can remove it with just nail polish remover which is amazing they gave me some colors i guess it says it's 81 percent ingredient natural ingredients so you know that that says a lot let's see the colors okay this is clear this is a base coat two base coats okay three base ghosts maybe they're all different yes they are they are one says bass s-o-s the other one says force green hardens and nourishes yeah don't laugh alex is like and then this is base 5.5 this is for healthy nails protect and hydrate okay they're not the same are they all like this a file oh there's another one so three files with this little thing you know to okay this is another base maybe these are colors wait yes look how cute this is baseless smooths and evens okay now all i need is a lamp ah perfect for cuticles softens and eliminates dead skin 97 natural ingredients and this is totally safe for me to use during pregnancy this looks like this this is these are all so nice alright guys i hope you enjoyed this video please let me know if you want me to do more like this or maybe not let me know if you want to see the lipsticks very very important information for me because if you don't want it like i don't want to do it either right thank you so much for watching don't forget to follow me on
