$150 dollars is a cart full of groceries. Tom Ford has some nerve! π
Right!!
Thatβs exactly right!
More expensive ingredients cause the price tag to go up because you still have to make profit
Oh yes,
honestly for me that could buy a cart and a half of groceries! it's an absolutely heinous price and it's a decent fraction of some people's rent or mortgage
I think that the βLAβ tati was one person and you basically were reborn into this tati. This tati is so much more relatable, refreshing and so much easier to watch.. if that makes sense?
I agree. I'm reminded of the Tati who used to collect coupons and sit cross-legged in the makeup department of CVS in search of great products. Welcome back, Tati!
@@patkern185 yes!!! I loved her for teaching me how to save a few bucks!! Iβm so glad she is back..
I agree with this
I was worried about LA Tati ... Iβm not worried about Seattle Tati. She looks less gaunt, fraught, sad and at times ill. Glad to have her back, we love happy and contented Tati β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ
100%!
This new, more down to earth Tati, aren't we just LOVING her (not that we didn't always)?
I think she always was down to earth. Never mentioned any kind of showing off or something. Maybe because Iβm not english speaker?
Tati, I canβt even describe how excited I STILL am that youβre back. It just makes me happy to watch your vids before bed. Donβt ever go away again!!
I feel like minimalism gives you the inverse experience to buying things⦠when you buy something you get an instant rush of happiness but then it fades overtime and eventually the stuff creates anxiety. Minimalism initially feels hard when getting rid of stuff / downsizing but then the happiness grows from that decision overtime. Hopefully that made sense lol
Just so u know, I screenshotted this bc I love it and need to remember it! Thank you!
@@Stephanie-iz3bl omg you are so sweet! That made my day!
Its totally true!!!!
Totally! And it makes the purchases you do make much more special because youβve put a lot of thought and care into the purchase and youβre going to take care of that item because you donβt have 50 just like it.
Not into minimalism, but i like your comment very much! π
Any makeup product over $50 either pays my rent, cleans my house, get rid of every pimple I have instantly, cooks me food, and turns back time by five years or itβs not worth it
ππππ€£π€£ preach
Totally agree! Unless it can clean my bathroom it's not worth it lol!
Amen ππ»
It better make me look like Angelina Jolieππ
I love luxury makeup, but as far as what I would say is "worth it"...the Geurlain foundation is God's gift to makeup. And it's about $60 a bottle, if you ever feel like splurging!
Personally, no matter how good a product is, Iβm never going to spend $150 on it because I know there is other amazing products for SO MUCH LESS. but I like to see your opinion on it
Same
Ugh Tati I agree with you about designer stuff. I used to think that I'll be so happy to have all that expensive garbage but it only made me feel shallow and indifferent. Can I afford these items? Yes. Do I want or need them? No. Honestly, some good, high quality underwear makes me more happy than a new Gucci bag. I guess after this wild year we start to understand what is important in our lives haha
Totally agree with you! A few high-quality underwears & clothes & make up items is all I needed and I don't need to feel the pressure of " oh i should have this"
What a queen for admitting that we dont need stuff to be valuable. So glad you are back Tati. π
You absolutely nailed it when you spoke about the " expensive " material things! Never seen a uhaul behind a hearse!! Can't take it with you when you go! Life, family, love, most important. π
Love that .a U-Haul behind a Hearse.. !! May have to use that π€
Thatβs so good ππ»ππΌ
Or a luggage rack on a hearse.
But then maybe now is the time to spend the money and splurge. π
"Never seen a U haul behind a hearse." Love it!
Love these videos - totally agree Tati!! Materials donβt matter, feeling happy does β€οΈ
Love your family so much! Great to see you like Tati also!
Me too.
I think this past year has made a lot of people realize what truly is important and worth our time and money. And materialistic items fell to the wayside. Human contact, and true happiness is what is important, not the next hot trend. Tati is so much more relatable and glowing and Iβm living for this and having Tati back just makes everything full circle. ππ¦
I would never ever buy $150 for any reason but Iβm just here to hear your voice.π₯°
Me toooo
Same π
Agree. Her voice helps with my anxiety xxx
@@saml2570 mine too

βDo not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.β It has taken me a long time to understand this, but I am working on it every day! So glad you are back. π₯°
Indeed! Do not live
in the world, but of it.
THIS. The entire world could really benefit from following this quote. Our society has really gotten to a place of copy and paste. Not just with words, but with EVERYTHING.

As an Australian seeing people that are wrapped up in the "LA lifestyle" is really odd, it seems so vapid and toxic. I don't care if something is secondhand and cost $2 if it brings me joy there is no way I could love something more simply because some celebrity wore it.
Australians have beautiful core values. Its nothing like LA toxicity. I feel ya. Another proud Australian β€οΈ
Hello fellow Aussie!
Ikr! I am from India and tbh I have never been the "runs after big brands" type. I get it for certain independent designers but other than that, not reallyπ€·ββοΈ
As an LA native, this whole "lifestyle" is extra ridiculous and odd, especially bc I don't subscribe to it.
@waldpurzel yes but Tati was talking in the video about how her living LA made her values shift to more "materialistic" things :)
Tom Ford needs to chill out - from his perfume prices to his makeup pricesβ¦I got a sample of the mascara, went to Sephoraβs website, saw it was $60 CAD, had a laugh and moved on! π³π
Also we get screwed in the Canadian price too and then on top sales tax
@@kelseymacdonald5216 So, so true!!
Also hourglass and Pat McGrath.
@@efistarfa5191 Yes, crazy expensive!!
@@kelseymacdonald5216 Nooooo way! Unreal!! Over $200 after tax π€ͺ
No foundation is worth that much. That is SO much money. I mean if it makes you happy sure. But I donβt like it when people claim that it is so much more expensive because it is THAT much better than a regular foundation. Itβs not. Buy it if you want it. But letβs not pretend the quality is proportional to the price.
I just realized When tati comeback to youtube i also started to interested in beauty community againπ₯Ίπ
I saw Jaehyun and I instantly liked your commentπ₯Ί
Same π
EstΓ©e Lauder futurist hydra rescue has the exact same ingredients and performs the same for a third of the price. SAME product from the same company. Just saying, do not spend the money.
A comparison video would be great of both of the foundations.
I have both and they are different, they perform differently somehow π€·ββοΈ. I like both but prefer the Tom Ford.
What was the brand with the gold top? She was saying she could buy almost 15 of them, I think. Love quality for less.
Interesting point. I was going to try the Futurist at the start of the summer but they discontinued it, no Medium shades at this point and I won't buy something that is discontinued anyway. Wound up getting the Urban Decay Kombucha Tinted Cream. It is very buildable and has that moisturized glow, so I think comparable and was 34 dollars. I think the most I spent on a foundation was 40 dollars for Lancome Tient Idole a few years ago and I didn't like it because it wasn't longwearing. Well it was fun going down this rabbit-hole, have a good night!
@@staceykersting705 u mean catrice true skin?
Nobody:
Absolutely nobody:
Tati: *EVERY HIGHLGHTER*
I really appreciate that Tati has been able to share with us that she's had to "scale back" in her life, as I feel like a lot of other people would just keep up with the illusion or not even share that aspect of their lives. I appreciate the relationship she has with us.
I'm glad your realizing that the "glam lifestyle" is not necessary.
I think your faith is helping you to see that, plus, just getting out of L.A. and that environment has helped as well.
You should be very proud of your βchangeβ! Keep it up and donβt let anyone make you feel like youβre crazy. Youβre actually very normal and modest.
I have heard the EstΓ©e Lauder futurist hydra rescue is very similar. Same company and similar ingredients but $45
Ester lauder produces the tom ford cosmetics so yeah haha
I love the futurist hydra!! Have used for almost 2 years. Itβs such an underrated foundation. β€οΈ
I can definitely relate to the whole being over a certain phase in your life. I went from freelance makeup artist 15k followers to quitting everything and becoming a nurse π
That is really amazing π
The lack of your monniker, "Glamlifeguru" showed that there has been a shift. I like the new channel identification of "Tati". Its you. For me, you are correct, looking at "how much is enough" and enjoying watching the videos and resisting purchasing anything new.....sometimes successful, sometimes not. It's a bit of an addiction. So, one day at a time... :))
I love you Tati!! I love the True You and another 1 of God's Testimonial Angel,s. β€
Love how you worded that. Perfection
π―π―π―π―
Itβs been just Tati for years
Love your βreal, realβ chats. Tati you just have a beautiful soul which comes thru in every video π₯°
You are such an amazing role model in so many ways! Thank you for being relatable in a way I didnβt feel you were before. I wish you all the joy and happiness you have brought your viewers!
I could never justify spending $150 on a single makeup item - but I still have to watch! Love you Tati π
Right? Like that's a cart full of groceries!
Thus video should have been called "life lessons with Tati" I feel like a lot of consumerism is on its way out.
Totally agree. I work in L. A., live in the O. C. Iβm constantly around consumerism. I see people making better financial decisions for themselves, or their family. Iβm so happy about that.
for yall maybe
Love your energy Tati! Thank you for sharing where you shop. Keep the clothing recommendations coming! Loving the colours (clothing and makeup). β€οΈ
Thank you for talking about our perspective on the true value of things. Making yourself happy, being part of your community, gratitude. I think this is the shift for a lot of people this year. Thank goodness!
Hey there Tati! I enjoy the talks about life and what youβre learning about what brings true joy and happiness. The past year has been tough for everyone and itβs helpful to hear other peopleβs stories. Iβm so happy youβre back on KRplus! My own personal love for makeup is even sweeter now. π
Love this comment π₯°β€
I think Covid has made us appreciate the truly important things like you said family, self care, and friendship. Nowhere to wear the fancy shoes and designer purses that made them go to the back of the closet or get rid of them to make space for a home office. All that said I never lost my love for makeup and to watch your videos
This makeup x top combo is GORGEOUS!!! β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ
The fact that it's spf 50 AND still an amazing foundation means it's a gem in my book. Usually when they put high spf in something, it makes the product not perform well.
I went through stages too where I cared about labels and fashion. Now I donβt care, just want to look nice and classic!
Amen, splurging once in a blue moon is fun
Marshalls has entered the chat π honestly though fully agree with you
Sheβs definitely aging backwards how can she look this glowy young healthy plus each time I watch her now I reminisce the times where I used to live with my parents once I moved out Tati also stopped uploading so seeing her I just feel am home again
That's sooo sweet. I loved this comment!
The most wholesome comment award π
Maybe I should try her halo tabletsπ
@@robell1981 π₯° aww thank u
@@janeyhickey6425 π π
I love EVERYTHING you said. Transformation looks good on you. Blessings to you Tati!!!!!
That eyes shadow look is stunning!- love purple eyeshadow!π₯°π₯°
β$150β¦is it worth it?β I donβt even need to hear more, the answer is no. But I will buy whatever Tom Ford is smoking lol.
πΉπΉπΉ agree
This. I was so looking forward to a new video from Tati, but this is so out there, I can't even justify 20 mins to watch the video. Like we all know the answer π
π€£ Same! I'll smoke some of that.
Heβs smoking a blunt of delusion
Blood thinners and t replacement wrapped in gold-flaked Benjamins. He's got the same issues as every other aging man but he has to delude himself the oppression of other humans is worth it in presentation.
Do the $29/gram Hourglass eyeshadows next. A 5 pan mini eyeshadow palette for $161 is about as WTF as a product can get
Beautiful as always, keep the videos coming Tati !!!
So happy you're back!!! I love the high end videos.
Iβm so so glad youβre back! KRplus wasnβt the same without you! β₯οΈ
Just got diagnosed with COVID.. Tatiβs videos are making my life bearable π€
Hope you're okay! You can get through it! ππ₯Ί
I'm sorry you have COVID. I hope you have people who can help you during this time. β€οΈ
I know itβs scary - I hope you recover quickly!
@@jaymoon5765 so sorry. Not sure where you live, but once you are over COVID, hoping you can find the vax
Your eyes look amazing!
Also great point about the shift in mindsets!
I still can't believe you are back and to sit down at the end of my day, enjoy solid honest reviews again.
Does the foundation come with an expert MUA to apply it to my face each time I want to wear it? For $150, it should! π€£
Can we get a tour of the new beauty space? So interested to see how youβve downsized π₯°
Beautiful look.
Thank you for all your hard work
I love what you said about not being so materialistic. You seem so much more happy and at peace. I love your energy! Youβre beautiful lady
I completely understand what youβre saying about perspective because it happened to me too. When you hear so much about people being sick and the thousands of people that died and being quarantined for so many months you re-evaluate your life regarding what is important and what isnβt.
Damn Straight Tati! Things DO mean less after the last year and a half.
Please please please, I NEED to see how you got that eye look! So beautiful! π
I'm loving this new Tati! β€
Why is life so much better again after Tati's comeback!
Tati doesn't realize this, but she is making everyone's life's better with her videos
π―!!!!!!
you comment this under all of her videos lmao
I just saw this exact comment from you on the last video.
Literally your new take on videos are very good and relatable!!! Iβm happy your back!
Tati I love you so much and Iβm so glad youβre back! Iβve been watching you since I was 11! Could you please make a dedicated video about how youβre feeling about everything you went through and your faith?
Okay but Tati at 11:18 looks STUNNING like a model I love the stripped back look without anything on the eyes I feel like it makes her look super young! In love π»
I believe we've all have grown to see the value in the small things over the past year or so! Tati please don't stop reviewing luxury products thoughπ³ I live vicariously through your videos...lol
Love and Light from Georgia
That blush and lip combo looks so good on you!
Living for this new Tati! Such a nice vibe from herβ€
I feel the same way. 2020 was an eye opening year.
I donβt think indulging in higher end brands and fashion is necessarily toxic (not exactly what you said but u get the point) - but I think the past year made all of us introspect a little more and a little deeper than before through isolation - about ourselves, our relationships, our sense of morality and direction for the future (post-pandemic). - whatever is toxic, trash it i say! but if you find a way to indulge in fashion or whatever it is in a healthy way then i hope you find that balance! - just wanted to reflect on that π§π»
I love that you did this video. I missed watching you and I am so happy you are back. I missed your honesty. We need more people like you in this world. Thank you Tati... β€
Love this style video! I agree with literally everything you said, Tati! Much love!ππ
I got a sample of the Tom Ford Traceless Soft Matte foundation and it was so incredible I said to myself, "You are a grown woman with a good job. Go splurge on that foundation for yourself." It was $88, and I just could not bring myself to do it haha
I found I was buying this foundation, and that foundation until I settled on Armani Fabric Foundation. A whole 5O is bottle lasts me a while - about a year.
Adding a drop of oil to my foundation is one of the tips you've given us. It made Estee Lauder DW my holy grail foundation. xoxo
I always love the pink/purple eyes!! Love the π!
I love your new outlook! It's all about love.
I used to be the same way Tati! I used to love having my LV or Prada bag but these days I donβt reach for them or care to wear them. My presence is more important than my accessories
The most expensive makeup item I have bought was Tati Beauty vol 1 and it is worth every penny.
You are just stunning at ANY price!! Great video!! β€οΈ
Love the rambling and thought sharing experience on your channel ive always enjoyed hearing your anecdotes and whatever you've been up to maybe that's what makes your channel feel so warm and friendly and why your presence was so dearly missed. Also love seeing your growth! People would go through three times your struggle and come out unchanged but hearing your introspection makes me think I'm watching an actual person and not just product placement β‘
Also your nails look fine lol
I feel like 2020 our humanity increased, what youβre saying echoed that for sure.
As a studentβ¦ I canβt justify spending more than like 30 on any single product
I canβt justify $5ππ
It will change one day π
After finding names brands at Marshallβs/TJMaxx, $30 is wayyy pushing it π
*cries in Australian* our prices are 2/3rds higher in some cases π
I feel you!!!Even as a working adult I canβt justify that lol!I have a stable job but my student life experience with money is still in me whenever I have to buy stuff or pay bills lol ππEverything feels so expensive even with a salaryππ€£
Waiting for you to come back was wel worth it. Your way of thinking now is so beautiful, relatable and refreshing, im loving every video so much π
I TOTALLY agree with what you said about fashion and being less materialistic, I've worked on my own business during covid, and I really didn't care much about fashion, even now I don't spend as much as I used to, I only buy items that works now, I like to spend my money on vitamins, skin care And house hold items as I work from home. Anything else is just bonus.
Read it somewhere, βHappiness is not pleasure, its peaceβ & I cannot agree more!
I hope youβre having a great day Tati ππππ
I love this video. So much love and support Tati !! β€οΈ
Sooo glad your back Tati!
Oh I would love to see you review the Chantecaille foundationβs I just picked up the cushion foundation
Chantecaille products in general
Tati hasnβt looked any better! Than todayπ
That's our pretty Lady !
I'm back to looking forward to Monday and Thursday videos! I stopped watching beauty videos for awhile and now I'm looking forward to it again and actually excited to put on make up and get ready. Which I feel like has improved my mental health!
Tati, the humblest video ever πβ€οΈ pleaseeeee go down this road! This Tati is my gurlllll! Be nice to hear your rag to riches story actually π₯° love getting my notification for your new videos π
Tati I haven't cared for labels in a while, I love that you are feeling that way. I watch you regularly and missed you when you were gone keep being amazing.
Your attitude change in regards to high priced goods and keeping up with the Joneses is refreshing!
Your wtf series is what got me into your content Tati! I love your reviews on the high end makeup (as well as drug store) but I prefer high end and I like that someone else can thoroughly see if itβs worth my money. I truly appreciate that π
Love this new Tati!β€οΈ
I completely agree with you on enjoying scaling back and finding comfort in myself and not trying to impress everyone around me. I have also been on this journey this last year. I find life alot more enjoyable now.
I hope everyone is having a beautiful day!
Most times, changing ones environment and choice of friends will give an entirely different perspective on life.
Your past experiences actually made you become what you are now. What you went thru just made you realize of what is trully important and what trully matters. When a person hits a low point in their life, it makes you see things and value things things differently.
Oh man, this video is making me want it! Your skin looks crazy amazing. I love the glow it gives.
I love seeing u come back stronger than everrrr!! All the love from Lebanon π±π§
I wish I could chat with you!!! Literally a bestie makeup talk sharing tips and tricks over drinks.... ahhh so good
Thanks Tatiβ¦ βlook at me, I am cute. Chanelβ¦β will be forever ingrained in my head π
The eye look is so bomb!! i love when you experiment with color
