Mmm those noodles looked amazing!
Concert looked so fun!
🐻 I'm trying out the TN system for the first time myself. Looking forward to seeing how it works for me.
I’ve been using the Nuxe reve de miel for over a year now and the one thing that got me into it is the smell 🤤😂 is has a very warm delicious honey cake smell that melts into your face and is super soft on my sensitive skin, I’ve had urges to taste it ngl 😂😂
Always great to hear from you, Gerry! I'm a long time follower too. I hope the challenges you've been dealing with are finally starting yo ease up, and that you have a great summer break. Looking forward to hearing your reviews on these new products!
Ahh, I remember those beauty blogger days so well! The first video of yours I watched was about the differences between Korean and Western BB creams, and I ended up buying the Skin79 and Mizon ones because of your reviews! 😂 I never liked Cetaphil either-I thought it was way too slimy, and I felt the same about the moisturizers. After COVID and all the price hikes, I started looking for drugstore makeup options or just going makeup-free. Lately, I’ve been loving the Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless Foundation. It often goes on sale at SDM for $8.99, which is a great deal! I also really like the Milani Conceal + Perfect Foundation, which sometimes goes on sale at Superstore for $10.99, so that’s not bad either. I haven’t tried press-on nails, but I’m a huge fan of nail stickers! They last pretty well when I use a top coat, though I do find myself picking at them sometimes. If I can resist the urge, they stay on really nicely! Glad to hear you're enjoying summer break! :)
I started watching during your beauty blog days 💗 I love that you're still here. It's lovely checking in on you.
Yes that PM moisturiser is gem! I have been using it over 5 years, jusr pair with a thicker cream in winter ❤😊
Good to know! I just tried it yesterday and it seems just enough for summer weather. What do like to layer with it when it gets drier?
@@WeekendsWithG i do either cerave or cetaphil cream in the big jar, cetaphil is definitely a lot more heavy duty 😘
CeraVe PM is my holy grail! Been using it for 10 years and it has never failed me.
At least I'm FINALLY getting on this! It's surprising lightweight but in a good way.
Gerry, I remember very well your beauty blog and beauty content here, on RUclips 🤩 This is how I found you - I was looking for Tony Moly's Luminous Pure Aura CC Cream review (bought it and loved it!), your review was very helpful, detailed and informative and you came across as a lovely and very friendly girl so I subscribed to your channel and have been here since 🥰 Have just checked - that was 11 years ago! You have changed, obviously 🤭but stayed true to yourself and your content is very cohesive. I love coming here! 😘
Oh thank you! THAT is a very long time! Life takes us in all kinds of different directions and I'm grateful you've stuck around through all the detours.
Lash lift how much is reasonable price? Can you not wear mascara with it?
I think it depends on who you are going to and exactly what type of lash lift you are getting. I tried the Yumi lash lift which was about 130-145 but you can get a keratin lift for much cheaper (70-90). If you find somewhere that's doing a promo or a place that's starting out, it's likely even lower...but of course knowing they may have less experience etc. Yes you can wear mascara with it, it just means my lashes STAY curled and I don't have to use waterproof mascara and deal with that whole bit.
@@WeekendsWithG can I ask what difference between Yumi lash and other lash lift?
15:59 is this normal sound level? Just wondering if you get used to it over time? Moved in new place has so much trqffic car noise not used to it
I didn't even notice it until you pointed it out and I specifically listened to the video again so I guess the answer is... yes. It can get pretty noisy if you live closer to the city and/or near conveniences (shops/businesses/restaurants etc). What actually annoys me more is the construction noise. They are putting up lots of new high rises everywhere nowadays and THAT is way more annoying.
I actually thought it was the sound of my own neighborhood until I saw your comment 😅. I live in a busy city too, you get used to it and don't even notice after a while.
I remember your beauty blog ❤ glad to see you’re doing well!
Awwww, thank you!!
I enjoyed the unboxing 🐻 I don’t have TN. I’m currently using Muji A5 notebook as my diary. Love decorating it with stickers and ephemera. Will subscribe to your channel ♥️
Love the hair!
Thank you! Wish my hair would just wake up like that.
🦀
What is that chair again, please?
It's a Pipersong chair!
@@WeekendsWithG thank you so much!
🐻 I’ve used a standard camel TN the most in my entire lineup for the past two years. although I size hop, I always come back to it. In my TN I have: -plastic zip -Insert one-monthly undated -Kraft folder -insert two- lightweight paper insert
The kraft folders always intrigue me but I'm never quite sure what I would put in it. I find the standard probably too large for most of my purses as a daily carry so I might give the passport a try!
Can that corner cutter be used for leather ?
No, I don't think it would be strong enough. You'd need something more proper for leather.
🦀 Gerry, I love the way you show your everyday life 😍 Your videos confirm that there is beauty in simplicity 💗 Waiting impatiently for your next vlogs 🤩
Thank you so much 😀
Enjoyed your vlog!🦀🦀
Thanks for watching! Yay for double crabs!
🦀 found it!

Hey 🐻 I've been using TN since around 2011 when I got my first Midori branded brown one. I went 'quiet' for a while and since that I've gone mad. I have a stationery addiction just so I can write with my fountain pens. I had not reason other than that to start what I enjoy now. So many TN's in my collection along with Plotter, William Hannah, Paper Republic, to name a few. 😄👍🏻 Enjoy the journey along the TN path...
Haha don't we all try to find "uses" for our fountain pens? I don't have a reason to write extensively day to day but I do enjoy my little pen collection.
I learned from 🐻 Lovely unboxing!! I love the Midori Traveler’s Notebook system!
Yay! I'm still trying to figure out the right size for me. I like the space of this standard length but find it a little cumbersome to carry in my purse.
For about 37 seconds I thought this was you. ruclips.net/user/shortsgJ7Y_OVecOQ?feature=share

🐻 🐻❄ 🤗
Gerry, the first thing that caught my eye is your lovely, natural make-up; it really suits you 🤩 I don't have much to do with sewing as I've got two left hands 🤭 but it's always a pleasure to watch you talk about the clothes you've done, how you look and feel wearing them - you present the whole process in a really interesting way. Greetings from Edinburgh in Scotland (it's May and the weather over here feels like September...) xxx
Hi y’all - apologies to all the headphone users that the background music is a bit loud. I was editing on my speakers and it sounded fine, next time I’ll double check with both methods. Hopefully you can all still hear me well 😊
🍎
🐻
🐻 great video. I just ordered my first TN and I look forward to using it
The rim of the pan and the handle need a bit of cleaning. But the recipe sounds good.

I have used DHC products for years. Love it!

Great video. I am pretty new to TN’s. I have the passport version and have ordered a limited edition regular in the new Tokyo edition which I pre ordered and I hope will shortly be despatched. I am in the UK so there are hardly any retailers who stock TN’s and inserts.
Do you like the passport size and what purpose does it serve for you? I'm looking at a smaller version as a daily purse carry. I'm currently using a DIY "passport-ish" size just to try it out before I put money on the TN!
Loved this video, such a peaceful and thorough look at the notebook. 🐻
HI do you live in Vancouver Canada? I also live in Vancouver, well to be exact in Surrey. I will subscribe to your channel, because youre videos are great.
Yup, I live in greater Vancouver!
This video was so peaceful! I use my Traveller's Notebook for a mixture of poetry/journaling and collaging. It's a nice size to carry around when I want to sit in a local coffee shop and do that there as well! Excited for your TN journey. 🥰
I love that! It's been a few years that I keep trying to get into consistent collaging/journaling but I'm such a picky and slow person that it takes me forever to decide on and/or finish a page. It's certainly something my "dream self" would do... my real self still needs plenty of practice.
🐻
🐻 I have never used one of these before. It definitely seems pretty interesting and makes it easy to keep multiple interests in one notebook.
🍎
🍎 i think it’s so cool how you’ve gotten into camping! i live in a tropical climate so i’m living thru you in this vlog 😂 it seems so peaceful & probably a nice escape from the hustle of a day to day. looking forward to your next one!
I actually watch a few camping vloggers who live in more tropical climates and it looks so lush! But then I’d worry about big bugs! That’s one thing I haven’t gotten used to yet. I’ve got a few more camps booked this summer - one on Vancouver Island right on the beach - can’t wait 😝
how to work with that? still waiting after 10 years.
I no longer own the product, this video was made 10 years ago and they probably don’t make this exact product anymore. This is also an unboxing video, not a “how to use” video. You’ll need to find someone else for that.
@@WeekendsWithG i think it's not good for Beginners ..but thx for the video i have still this product but not help for much.
Sorry, too many memories. Fire starter. Paper ( even better if it's office shredded) + soaked in a little vegetable oil.
Good tip, I’ll definitely have to try that!
@@WeekendsWithG Mirror image problem with product labels on camera: build a small tray out of foam core. Mount a small makeup mirror @ 45º, place label @ 90º The reflection then can be seen correctly.
