Happy New Year! ‘Tis the season to get engaged! I got engaged in February and I know November-February your timeline is lit up with sparkly rings and sweet engagement photos. I thought it would be fun to start the new year with something WAY out of my comfort zone relating to weddings: a bridal Youtube video.
Oh boy, here we go! Please be nice! 😉 This isn’t the best quality, Peaches and I set up all the lighting in the room [kidding, she sat and wondered what the heck her mom was doing] but I’m learning as I go! I ramble [too much #southernproblems?] but I just wanted to sit down and chat about three products I really think will help if you are a bride or in a wedding! And if we were at lunch chatting, I guess I’d be rambling! I’m so timid as I post this, just because I am not a Youtuber and have no clue what I’m doing, but we all have to get out of our comfort zones sometimes, right?!
I’ll link to all the products below and I hope this helps for any special occasion you might have coming up! Please let me know if you have any more questions about these products!
neuLASH: Nordstrom | Sole Serum: Sole Serum [c/o] | Naked Skin Concealer: Sephora | Red Cherry Lashes: Amazon
Thank you so much for watching and I hope this year is filled with plenty of love and laughter for you!
P.S. The winner of the Nordstrom gift card is: Anne Mary, your e-mail is: anneradalovich1@gmail.com if this is you feel free to e-mail me and I will send it to you!
The video is so cute!! Thanks for the tips. I’m running to get that Urban Decay now bc I ‘need’ to!! 😉
Thanks so much Katey Loved your video! I have heard good things about the Urban Decay Concealer as well but I am very fair skinned like you and it’s a constant battle to find a concealer/foundation that is light enough for my skin [most times the “lighter” shade in a contour palette is dark enough to be my contour shade! lol]. After hearing your opinion on the Urban Decay, I will definitely be purchasing it! Since you said that you wouldn’t use it for blemishes, what do you recommend for our fair skin? Happy New Year xo
Hi Heather!
I use Clé de Peau Beauté Concealer, but it is really pricey! I just use it to cover any break outs I have from my discoid lupus! I’ve heard the MAC studio finish concealer is really good!! It’s in a pot, so I would just be sure to apply with a brush so bacteria doesn’t spread. I hope this helps!!
xoxo,
Katey
Katey I LOVED this video!! You did so so good. I’m working on my first youtube video for my blog as well, so I know how torturous it is to watch yourself and trying to edit it.. haha! I recently was gifted a Nordstrom gift card and was planning on splurging for the Neulash for my wedding!
HNY to you and Paul!

Loved the video post! I’m going to run to Sephora to get the concealer this weekend! I also am going to get the lashes to keep on hand!
Your lashes always look so fab, what mascara do you use and are you still using NeuLash?

Hi Leah!
If you go to my beauty favorites tab I ace my mascara listed! 🙂 and I use NeuLash every day! It’s my favorite!

Great photo! Is this Mary Costa Photography? She’s a great friend of mine 🙂
I just recognized the photo, too… surprised it wasn’t properly cited! It’s a great photo and I think there should be full disclosure on all things blogs, especially photos that you didn’t take!
Hi Emily!
I’m sorry I just found the photo on Pinterest. I typically always source it was from Pinterest [if I can’t find the actual photographer], but I think because it was Christmas break I was quickly working trying to spend time with my family. I will correct that. Honest mistake, I see my photos used all the time online and understand, but never get upset.
Best,
Katey
Hi girl!
Thanks for sharing the source! I just saw it on Pinterest not linked to anything! I”ll credit. 🙂 Thank you for being kind about it!
Best,
Katey
Of course! I love her work, so I tend to recognize it quickly. Pinterest can be such a pain sometimes when it comes to sources!

Love the video! Thanks for the tips! Would love to see you do a contouring tutorial video for all us fair-skinned girls!
I follow you on snap chat and have been wishing you would start a youtube channel! I knew you would be great at it! Love it
Love the video Katey. I have tried several of the beauty products you have recommended and never been disappointed. And I love how you just had to go into Saphora after church 🙂 Sounded so familiar…
Happy New Year!

Oh wow, I do not believe this was your first video, it was so GOOD!!! I loved it!! Great job, and hopefully there will be more in the future?!
Oh my gosh you were wonderful, you’re perfect on video!! I can’t believe this was one of your first! I am writing all these products down for wedding season! I may not be getting married myself….but I can still be a pretty guest in everyone else’s pictures 😉
The sole serum is GENIUS! I will have to get this for sure! My feet always kill at weddings because we were always the first one’s on and the last one’s off the dance floor!
