to my YouTube channel or welcome to my
YouTube channel I'm call me Chris you
can call me Chris and know I've not been
kidnapped despite it looking like it um
this is not my office I'm currently in a
bathroom in Texas a temporary bathroom
at that but I just thought I would um
just kind of sit down and maybe do a
little get ready with me while I tell
you what the heck's going on and also
you're looking beautiful today and yes
even if you're a boy you can be called
beautiful too cuz you're looking
absolutely beautiful and I just hope you
know that all right I don't think you
believe me and just know that you are
all right there we go okay let's
[Music]
talk so first product that I'm going to
be using is I've been influenced okay I
watched Tik Tok I was influenced and I
bought this the anua heartleaf toner not
sponsored I just I think it's great I
don't know if it's working I think it
might be but I'm just going to I'm going
to put that on my face it's also 8:00 at
night I'm not trying to trick you I I
just don't want to sit here and talk at
the camera and not do anything I don't
know if this is entertaining and all
we're going to do this anyway a new
cleanser I'm going to be the new Beauty
Guru in this video we need a cotton pad
first and then we'll get into the tea
also so sorry jay for this terrible
sound Reverb and for the terrible
lighting and for my terrible face all
right so we're just going to slap that
on I see some people do this with their
fingers my fingers are nasty and I don't
wash them enough so got in bad first off
I am leav leing I'm leaving the country
I currently live in I'm moving I'm
moving again and I moving to the United
States of
America never thought those words would
come out of my mouth and um it's all
because of a
boy just plain and simple basically
we'll get into that a little bit more
next is my go-to moisturizer I've been
using for about 6 months now and this
has single-handedly changed my skin I
was sent this by a creator cuz this is a
Creator brand and I was like okay I'll
try it I loved it so much and now I'm
partnering with them because I love it
so much this video is also to tell you
about um this project that we've kind of
been working on uh which is really
exciting which is one up I've been
personally just tired of all of the
products that are shoved specifically in
women's faces like I feel like we need
we all need like a 10 product skin care
routine or your face is going to blow up
or something and I'm a simple all
right I'm a simple I need a simple
routine otherwise I can't stick to it
and I have sensitive skin I have dry
skin and this basically is one and done
it's a moisturizer it's a serum it's a
lifter it's a it's UV resistant it's got
vitaboost It's got ni acetamide it's got
all of the ingredients just in one
rather than getting 85,000 different
bottles of something and basically it's
one up it's just one pump so you just
mine looks crusty though cuz I've been
using it so often she's she's a little
rough still works like a chair you
literally just pump it that's all you
need and then you know how many pumps
are in here so it's just once it day one
pump and that's it and it feels so nice
it's got a very very slight scent it's
really really light which I like but
also super moisturizing cuz my skin is
like the the Sahara okay so I need
moisture and this provides all the
moisture I need I'll use it usually once
maybe twice a day but I usually put it
on in the morning and once at night and
it is awesome and I also love it cuz
basically we're just singlehandedly
disrupting the Skin Care space because
all these just massive skin care
companies just want to keep selling you
multiple products and saying that your
skincare regime is never good enough and
you need to buy this one this one and
this one this one's just like just take
this this is all you need and then
you're good Caleb's got his too over
there men can use it too the other
creators that I'm doing this with are
all men and I'm actually the only woman
on board and I was like I think women
need this product too like I know men
always have you know the three in-one
shampoo and stuff but women need
simplified skincare as well as men I
think it's great to have like a unisex
product but I can genuinely say after
using this product for a couple months I
fell absolutely in love with it and I
just want to give you guys the
opportunity to make your skincare
routine very very simple and you can
check out oneup if you want there's a
link in the description below and you
can use code Chris to get 25% off that
is the biggest reduction in price that
we're going to have just for the opening
you can also get a subscription base as
well um but again if you're interested
go check it out I highly highly highly
recommend it I don't recommend many
skincare products because a lot don't
work for me but this one's worked for me
a lot and I'm backing it as well so so
I'm putting my name on it as well I love
it so anyway let's get into the rest of
the video okay so now we're going to
cover up my zip because it's your girls
time of the month and she's breaking out
can't really avoid that but it's all
right we all break out sometimes and
it's normal but yeah so I'm moving which
is scary and also extremely exciting I
have never personally lived with another
person like I've spent extended periods
of time with Caleb obviously and we've
known each other for quite a long time
now longer than you guys know and I
never thought I would end up with
anybody let alone move in with somebody
you know plan to spend my life with that
person and then Caleb just came trotting
into my life you know and he kind of
just disrupted that mentality I plan to
have 50 dogs on a farm in the middle of
Canada all right and he
just it all up in a good way but yeah
and little Kev Meister Kevin he's going
to be coming with me and it's just going
to be a new adventure and I'm I'm I'm
really excited but that also means that
I'm going to be moving away from my
family which is cuz I'm really close
with my family I'm sure a lot of you can
relate to this a lot of you have
probably moved away or gone to school or
or maybe you're younger and you're
thinking about it but I'm really close
with my family but I think that um
FaceTiming them on a regular basis and
hopefully being able to have them down
here and visiting is going to be good
and nice but that's probably the part
that I'm most scared of is just kind of
like getting out of my own comfort zone
because I don't have a lot of friends
and one of my best friends Selena she
lives on the other side of Canada so I
live here and Selena lives here and then
Caleb lives down here and then Jay lives
way the over here so just everybody's
like spread out and I I do have other
friends in Canada and stuff what I'm
trying to say as my family they are
truly like my best friends which might
be sad I don't know if some you can
relate to that and I just had I I just
had a nephew I had my own nephew my
sister just had a baby little George and
I'm sad because I won't be able to see
him every day like I have been when I
live up there but you know there's
sacrifices that you have to make and and
I'm okay with that and I'm I'm excited
to move on to my own new chapter and be
happy cuz this is truly truly the
happiest I've been since I can remember
I genuinely I don't know maybe when I
was like a kid and I know people um
sorry pause I'm going to move on to
blush so also for my routine I don't put
on Foundation I just do some concealer
and then some blush so whatever I'm just
going to keep moving on using the rare
Beauty blush believe anyway yeah being
on the internet as a couple is
interesting to say the least I know I
asked for cuz I'm on the the internet so
I'm going to get opinions no matter what
but um I know that me saying I'm going
to be moving to the states is going to
like for some reason disrupt people's
lives so they're going to be like I
can't believe you're moving to the
states just for a boy you're going to
leave
your shut up okay shut up it's not your
life all right just be happy for
me no but it was not a light decision at
all okay I'm not a spontaneous P person
I wish I wish I was spontaneous but I'm
not this was a very thought decision
sometimes when you know you know you
know and I have been traveling like
nonstop for like over a year now and
it's exhausting to have to move back and
forth and for those people that have
long-distance relationships you know the
struggle you know and I am very lucky
that I have been able to see him as
often as I I can I'm very lucky I
absolutely realize that but I'm just at
a place right now you know I'm pushing
third I'm at a place right now where I
know what I want I'm not like my dumb 20
20-year-old self anymore I finally
gotten to a place where I'm more
confident in my decisions and myself and
Kaleb absolutely help with that and I'm
so grateful for that yeah I'm just i'
not for a moment I think we've been
talking about this for the past like 6
months and Not For a Moment have I
wavered which is like rare for me cuz
I'm an anxiety-ridden I'm putting
on some like highlighter I don't know
what this is Charlotte Tilbury out
Focus you guys know this you guys don't
care it's Charlotte Tilbury I don't know
and it makes my cheeks glow okay little
on the tip of the nose cuz we want to
look sweaty for some reason little
healthy glow I'm just going to like
touch up my nose a little bit my zits um
but yeah I I have uh not only is Caleb
my partner now but he's also um a
business partner which has been so fun
people always are like don't work with
your spouse or don't work with the
person that you're with but honestly
it's been the most fun I've ever had
working whether it's filming with him or
working on the sour candy with him we
can both be super creative and I know
you guys have loved kev's candy that we
came out with and we're coming out with
more it's just been a wild ride and
adventure and it's something we're both
super super passionate about don't worry
I'm not going to turn into a couple's
Channel okay but once in a blue moon
he's going to show up on the channel and
also we are thinking of doing because of
your guys' suggestions you guys were
like oh make your own Channel with him
so I think that we're actually going to
be doing our own like podcast Channel
which I think would be really fun just
cuz you know we're just two idiots that
have stuff to say and for some reason
you guys want to hear it so we're going
to say it so let let me know in the
comments if that's something you guys
want to see we're going to do it anyway
probably but if you have name
suggestions that would be good too that
would be great oh I forgot my eyebrows
look at those blonde also oh I
forgot about this oh my God I look so
dorky with my ha by my ears I not that
this is this is not a big deal at all
I'm going to change my hair color for
some reason that's a big decision for me
I feel like everybody gets used to my
hair being a certain color benefit
pencil brow
wand or whatever I'm going to be
changing my hair color and I think I'm
just like in my natural era lately I
think I want to go closer to my natural
color which right now looks gray it
looks gray and decrepit but it's like a
dirty blonde I might go back to that I'm
tired of the maintenance I'm just a low
maintenance hence the oneup I want
life to be simple and I feel like being
online there's just so much pressure to
look a certain way and to have like
these in-depth routines and to have the
perfect eyebrows are the perfect this
and you know makeup makeup and hair make
me feel confident but at the same time
it's like I don't want my life to
revolve around that and I feel like a
lot of our lives do and we all look up
to these people that are just like not
reachable in terms of like what they
look like because I'm going to tell you
this right now
99% of the internet who's on the
internet they have some sort of work
done or you know they're not happy with
themselves and they are doing things to
look a certain way and I think that we
have just unreasonable expectations of
what we need to look like and I that's I
mean that's why I give you guys you know
I know I don't see you but I give you
guys compliments every day because it's
just like sometimes you just need to
hear it even if it's like not directly
to you but you need to be reminded that
like the beauty standards and and all
these all these General standards are
just insane and I can't even keep up
with it man know I mean not that I
haven't had and I'm not going to be like
I'm I haven't had any work done I'm my
which I've never had you know Botox or
fillers or any kind of plastic surgery
or anything like that mostly cuz it
scares the out of me to be honest
but also I just I'm just like you know
what I'm going to get older and there's
lots of things I look at the mirror and
I want to change but I think it's really
just me at the end of the day that hyper
fixates on them I mean I know I have
thousands of people always telling me
what's right or what's wrong with me and
that's hard sometimes but you know I got
to choose to ignore the bad and just
absorb the good and you know what Almost
100% of you guys are just so awesome and
I so so appreciate it I just want you to
know how how awesome you are Next Step
I'm going to put some brow gel in I
think it's benefit I don't know because
I've used it so much that the labels
woren off oh I like the Benefit Brow gel
the most I don't know why probably cuz
it's the first brow gel I got and I've
never tried another one but yeah you
know I'm all for people enhancing
themselves to make themselves feel
better but I am not for people comparing
themselves to one another because you
don't know what that other person is
going through and doing to themselves so
just just stop stop comparing yourself
I'm so guilty for it and I'm just you
you know calling the kettle black but
it's something I'm working on constantly
cuz I'm in this space and I'm like oh my
gosh these people like have beautiful
fluous lips and this person has a
beautiful volumptuous butt and this
person's super skinny and this I'm just
tired I'm tired I'm old I'm de grip it
on the internet I'm just starting to
become good with how I am and I hate
that it's taken you know 30 years almost
for that to be to happen so I hope if
you're younger than me translucent
powder by Laura Mercier if you're
younger than me you learn that quicker
than I did cuz life moves fast man
I blinked when I was 19 and I'm now
almost 28 Sho it's crazy I'm literally
just going to Splat this all over my
face to just get rid of some shine go on
the nose do on that I don't know if this
is any good this is genuinely how I do
my makeup most this is more this is more
I usually just do concealer and a little
bit of blush and this half the time I
don't even put eye makeup on anymore
which I never I would never walk out of
the house when I was a teenager even
early 20s you would never catch me
walking out of the house with no eye
makeup on lately I just don't give a and
I know you guys have probably seen some
videos of where like I'm really looking
natural faed and like a 12-year-old boy
a little bit sometimes I'm not going to
care sometimes I really like doing my
makeup and it's super fun and I'm going
to look all glammed up sometimes I'm
going to look like I did at the
beginning of this video and you're just
going to have to be okay with it and I
know you are cuz you guys are supportive
as but I'm going to show you guys a
mascara I've really been enjoying and it
is the Pillow Talk push-up lashes by
Charlotte Tilbury this one
and it's um it's like a red Brown and it
goes really nice with my hair I really
like it I'll show you guys what it looks
like I don't have very nice lashes
usually I'll curl them but I'm too lazy
right now I'm going to do this but yeah
so I'm moving and I'm moving very soon I

5:00 a.m. and Caleb and I are going to

dirty blonde before since I've been a
kid should I go back to like a blondish
color or should I like go maybe back to
a lighter Ginger color I don't know
either way this is the finished look
it's really not that intense but that's
about it but yeah so recap I'm moving I
