Mmm. Eyes are feasting. What's going on, everybody? Welcome to another episode of the Hot Pop. Boys, we got David, Nell, Andrew from the Fung Bros. As you guys know, we like trying all different ranges of Chinese food from traditional to contemporary. And that's what brings us here today. Bro, we came all the way to Irvine. Woo! Hell of a farm, where were we at, man? When you think of Irvine, I think of what is nationally consistently ranked as one of the best suburbs on planet Earth. When I think of Irvine, I actually think of a upper-middle class blend between East and Western culture. When I think of Irvine, I think of all the hot chicks at UCI. Today, we came all the way to Irvine to try what is potentially the most contemporary dumpling chain on planet Earth. Jajalza. Hop hop boys, let's go. All right, everybody, we have just got the Jajalzas. And if you guys don't know, Jajalza in Chinese means dumpling.  We got different colored Jajalzas.  Exactly. My eyes are feasting. Color of these Jajalzas, aka dumplings, is based off the natural ingredients that are different in each dumpling. This is not artificial. Yeah, yeah. No, you remember which one is which? I do, absolutely. Vegetable, chicken, all right, this one's pork, this one's shrimp, and fish. They have a house sauce that's a pre-mixed. Let me try the pre-mixed, man, because I already know where I'm at. But I am the food mixologist. I'm going to do one part soy sauce, two parts vinegar, chicken with pumpkin skin. Initial thoughts? Light and healthy. But I would say I've had chicken dumplings before, and I thought that this one was one of the better ones I've had. It's like an XLB effort, as you know, with the juice. The skin is a little bit thicker and a little bit more chewy, but it has flavor in itself. You know, these are zhenjial. Zhenjial means steamed. I think a lot of people do think, oh, either pan-fried or boiled. Actually, there's a third option that is the best option. Steamed. Steamed, yep. Here we have the red cabbage skin, but this is a pork filling. Really tastes the beat. Wow. Yeah, dripping the red sauce. The red cabbage, bro, with the sauce. I felt like the sauce really accentuated the red cabbage. It did, it did. Even more. It came out strong. I actually liked that one a lot more than the chicken one. Veggie dumpling with spinach skin. Super veggie. Oh, great. Got some tofu in there. Look at that. Super light, man. I thought you could probably eat, like, 50 of these. Yeah. I've had veggie dumplings before. I thought the quality in this is good. I think it could have been packed a little bit more. No, I was just going to say, to compensate the amount of skin, it could have been packed a lot more vegetables in there. This is a fish dumpling with cuttlefish skin. Like, dumpling before. Wow. Hold on, bro. Yo. Y'all got that on camera.  Made it squirt. I'm going to turn this. Watch it, watch it, watch it. Oh! I'm dipping it. That's actually one of my favorites so far. Here we have the traditional shrimp jiaozi. No flavored skin. Mm. I'm going to start with, like, a hot cow. Yeah, I don't know. So for me, you taste the sauce the most because that's more of, like, a plain slate. Favorite of the colored ones? The red cabbage. I actually really like the cuttlefish one. The black one. Oh. I was going to say that. But since this is a close second, I'll roll with this one, the chicken one. I always tell you about these Hangzhou jiaozi I had. Oh, yo, you reminisce about that. They're like hybrid xiaolongbao jiaozi. And this was the closest thing in America. Not every jiaozi with soup is a xiaolongbao. I think we associate soup dumplings with xiaolongbaos, obviously. They can actually even be a little bit different. The reason that jiao jiaozi is considered the most contemporary dumpling house in America is because of that platter. Your change of the complexion of the way a dumpling tastes by experimenting with the skin, the filling, the juices that then come out of the filling. We had the steamed ones. Here's some boiled ones. This is the boiled shrimp. This is the boiled signature one. This is pork and shrimp. You know, for me guys, my ranking goes steamed, boiled, pan fried at the bottom. Oh, facts. Yo, I just feel like you switched up, David. Maybe trying to ride the healthy way. Let's try the signature. They stuck to each other. This is the hot pot boy's ring. And you know what I noticed about their dumplings here? And that one was really good. Very subtle, high quality. Small. Yo, but I would say this. No matter what the filling was, they all taste relatively light. When you pour the juice out, it's not super fatty. That's boiled shrimp. You know what it is? I would say that original one with the pork and shrimp does rank in my top three of the dumplings I've had. So I feel like the boiled shrimp. Yeah, I'm riding the shrimp. Even the boiled shrimp was really good. All right, everybody, we just finished with the jowd's. Now on to round two. Here, we have the apps and veggies. Just go to the mushroom first. Notable that they have sliced little lines on top, just so that they know the truffle sauce is going to go straight in. Light truffle flavor, but it's there. Let's go for the cactus. Cactus. Here, you got some goo from the cactus, I believe. David, moving on. The green beans. The string beans, green beans, whatever you want to call it. The first thing I noticed is the amount of shrimp paste and chilies on here is on another level. Got a nice little crunch in there. Those are good. All right, spinach. Clean. Just clean. I think they cooked it in a broth. That sauce is really nice. There are very traditional elements, and there are very like fusion elements, like this dish right here, I'm assuming. I feel like the traditional part is the beef roll, and then obviously the fusion part is the salsa. What you guys? Beef with salsa. Wow. I don't know, you guys, I like that a lot. You said Beijing's very like desert-like. That dish is very desert-like. And it's fascinating because it's almost like fusion, but fusion from a Chinese chef. Let's try this chicken roll.  Mm, that's good. You got a little bit of that Malak kick. Papá, papá. All right, we're going for the okra, guys. Okra. They're Southern favorite, guys. Some people might think that this gooey texture is gross, but that's how all okra is. I actually really like that. I love this sauce right here, that sun. The main theme that is stuck with me is the qualities there and the feel like. Jajaju obviously does pride itself on no preservatives, no MSG. MSG is not the worst thing, but let me tell you this, that is not traditional to Chinese food. All right, guys, we just finished round two. What was your favorite? Ooh, ooh. If I'm thinking visually, it's the mushroom caps. Just like we used to rock the mushroom top before. Every Asian has had the mushroom top in their lifetime, at least once. Ok, now on to round three. The elevated fried rice is here at Jajaju. Oh my gosh. Obviously, you have a classic shrimp fried rice. This is a beef mushroom and cheese, almost looking like a risotto. You have a chicken quinoa, and then you have a vegetable quinoa. This one's the veggie one. That egg is super fluffy. I think immediately you gotta compare with the chicken one. You're worried about your health. Quinoa fried rice is a great substitute. I know which one's better, the veggie one. Chicken one's a dry. The corn made it juicy. Yeah, it is out. There's almost like a low mic guy, but it's like it's got cheese in it. Beef and mushroom, an amazing mixture of umami. Cheese actually having umami flavor. Oh! Uh-oh! Uh-oh! Uh-oh! This is good, bro. That is unique. You look like Mark Wiens, bro, when you took that bite. And that was natural. Don't we all have a little Mark Wiens in us? So you got a little bonito flakes on top. You have some pepper, you have shrimp, you have egg. It's gotta be the lightest shrimp fried rice ever. All of the shrimp is good, though. Wow. That shrimp is juicy. This and the dumplings is what Jajalza is about, man. I swear that's what's setting them apart, man. Round four is actually back to the dumplings because we are at a spot called Jajalza, by the way. You have the pork and celery boiled dumpling. I would say it was a nice switch up. I love how the pork broke down. That was nice. The pork, the pork, very soft. They're fish dumplings here at Jajalza. You know me. First team all NBA. You know me. Chive, anything chive, solid. Oftentimes fish dumplings are like fish balls. They're just packed super tight, super firm.  Beef and onion jajalzas. Obviously, it reminds me a little bit of a Northwestern flavor, Northwestern Chinese. You can tell there's a lot of juice, hold on. It's zooming. It's golden juice. Do you see that it's sitting on juice? I shot at the juice world at Coachella. Dumplings not the same. No, no they're not the same. Dumplings not the same. Do I have more beef soup, please? 10 dumplings, all I said I needed 10 dumplings. That was like a beef broth. That was nice. That was like, except minus like the cinnamon and star anise. Okay, now we are on to round five. This is already fifth round, man. That's a lot of food. But I will say this, through this excursion of contemporary delicious Beijing fusion food. I feel all right. I'm feeling good. I ate a lot of dumplings, man. This is braised beef with quail egg. Crazy. Quail egg and beef at the same time. The yolk is creamy on the inside and then it kind of covers the beef when I eat it. Are you guys next up? We've got a crazy dish, bro. Plum and pork belly. Wow, sweet. Tastes like a plummy chashu. I've had some form of these, but I've never had Hongsao Rou that sweet with the plum. I've never had this braised beef presented with the quail egg. Between the two, which one did you like more? I should go with the beef. I gotta go with the pork. And usually I'm team beef. This actually looked really interesting. This cabbage with the tofu skin. The hama is hella strong in it. The garlic and dried shrimp flavor is strong with this one. Even this dried shrimp is really high quality. I feel like as Kansas we definitely could appreciate this dish. Yeah, for sure. And that's the cool thing about Jajaza and this chef that's coming up with all these ideas is that there's influences from Sichuan, from the north, even from the western part of China and the southern part of China. You gotta hide my news. Here's the one feature about this dish that I'm looking forward to. Scallion oil. I think that scallion oil kind of tones down the saltiness of the dried shrimp and I like it for that reason. If you look at around this guy, it's a hybrid between ancient and ancient modern. In terms of ancient Beijing flavors, but shown in a brand new way. Oh my God. Okay, guys, this is the hot and sour beef noodle. Mildly sour, mildly hot. Ooh. Okay. All right, I think we are on to round six. Liu. Liu or Liu? Round Liu. This is a English beef skewer, but obviously, like we said at Jajaza, they don't do anything just like regularly.  I wish I could eat more of that. English beef was very tender. So look at the quality of that. You know that looks good.  Yeah, it's kind of random. I was like, oh, it's not like elevated enough, but we'll see. I feel like the garlic is extra strong. The garlic flavor is punching you in the face. Garlic flavor. You said garlic flavor. The garlic flavor.  It's like a swan roll, the way it out. Tuna. Oh! It's bittersweet that we're coming to the end of our meal because we've eaten a lot. This is a cod fried cod sticks. They look like bamboo sticks. Let's see what dressing this is. I was excited by the presence of the shiso leaf in the stick. Mushroom quinoa. I prefer the mushroom quinoa. Yeah, this one's main. Mushroom better than cod fish. We are here again with the venerable chef Tian. Ni hao. Ni hao. So this is your new restaurant? Yes, yes, yes. We have a restaurant in China. We just brought the dumplings from China. And the other dishes are combined with this restaurant. Many Chinese people in the United States are already used to Chinese cuisine.  The price is a little bit higher. There are different people. Their needs are also different. Our team of people wants to give the customers a kind of health and a delicate experience and enjoyment. This is the future. Do many people have this idea? There may be others who come to copy or imitate it. But we are actually in the middle of it. Maybe we will be higher. I hope that the dishes will be more welcoming and more popular. This is a traditional dish. We have Guihua in our hometown. Some local elements have been added on the outside. I love the crispy skin and the chewy inside. It's essentially like fried mochi. This is a traditional dish. That's a very light dish. And the last but not least. This is also a Chinese dish. Because it's a Western dish. But the Chinese dish is very Chinese. Only Chinese people have this dish. That's good. Yeah. That's good. The hot thorn syrup is nice. You know this was my major takeaway. We went to Bistro Na's. Bistro Na's was more traditional. But they were taking some of the traditional ancient things at Jiao Jiao and really just mixing it. But at both places it was elevated. Super elevated. I would say Bistro Na was a little bit fancier ahead of that more done up vibe that you would go there maybe with your family and stuff. You know fancier as far as presentation. Here is a lot more casual and accessible. You know what I do appreciate from both spots is that the quality is always high end. And the quality is there. They're really focusing on the quality of the food. And then that's just something when you eat it you can appreciate it. I know in the comments section there's going to be a debate about cheaper, more whole in the wall spots versus more done up spots. But you know at the end of the day the most important thing is that the whole spectrum is filled out. And everybody's just doing a good version of what they are. And I actually think how Jiao Jiao is kind of preaching and promoting a healthier style of Chinese food. I think that is actually where a lot of people want to take it. A lot of people have been wondering can Chinese food still be good, tasty, and authentic, and be healthy? And I think that this spots like this are setting that example. All right everybody thank you so much for watching that video. Big shout out to Jiao Jiao in Irvine. Shout out to Chef Tian. Shout out to everybody here. In the comments down below let us know what you think about the direction of kind of healthy Asian food. I think that healthy Asian food sometimes has a bad connotation to it. You're like always amazed for just American people or whatever. It's meant to be overpriced. Yeah it's overpriced, it's cooked by Americans. I don't know guys, that's not always the case as you can see here. So let us know in the comments down below and also let us know if there's any other spots you guys want us to check out. Thank you so much for watching the video. Like, subscribe, follow us on social media. And until next time we out. Peace. Yo, we vlogging in the middle of a video. Yeah, we paused the video just to, no we're still vlogging. Vlog live. Shoot at him vlogging. Canon on Canon. Pew, pew.


Before I get started, I would like to say to Donald Trump, this is what a rally looks like. Objective of the Democratic Party in this year is to beat Donald Trump. Sometimes she beats Donald Trump in the polls, sometimes she gets beat by him or Cruz or Rubio. You can quibble about whether he beat Trump by six points or 18 points as he did recently. Bernie Sanders wins this primary. We will be clear that we have a candidate that will beat whatever they send towards us. Mr. Trump, you don't have to divide our country with false fear. Oh, there is something more powerful than fear and hatred and violence. It is love and unity. For too long they have tried to split us up every way they can, but we are coming together. Black and white, red and brown, Asian, working people of all colors to say, enough is enough. We want our country back. If the corporations have bought you, we don't want you. And Bernie Sanders is a candidate who cannot be bought. Now let me close on this thought. You know, in the past eight years, I've gotten used to having an organizer who cut their teeth in Chicago and the White House. And I was up there today in Chicago meeting with Reverend Jackson and Bernie Sanders, and I was reminded that Bernie Sanders is an organizer who cut his teeth in Chicago. So ladies and gentlemen, I said why don't we send one more organizer who cut his teeth in Chicago back to the White House? Now let me be very clear as an organizer, I would be remiss if I did point out to you that this state, this week, that Missouri this week is looking a lot like Michigan last week. When turnout goes up, when you leave here tonight, do not rest until you've knocked on every door you can knock on, until you have made every call you can make. We turn out the vote in Missouri, we will win and we will be on our way to the White House. Thank you and God bless.


All civilians in coastal regions, this message is from the sea, and cosine patrol, and concerns your safety and security. You must stay away from the sea for the foreseeable future.  These life farms resemble bloated octopuses, with growths and deformations vaguely resembling humans or other animals. They are aggressive and attack by thrashing wildly with their tentacles. These animals will attempt to injure you, and then forcibly take you into the sea. Alternatively, they can use a system of gas-inflated sacks to travel aerially, and carry you out to sea by the air. Over fifty people have already gone missing in events suspected of being connected to these unusual sea creatures. Please stay away from coastal areas, and inside your home, for your safety. The sea and cosine patrol has dispatched patrol boats, and armed personnel to contain, and terminate these creatures before they can injure more people.

Hey guys, what is up? Welcome to my channel. So the day that I'm filming this is Wednesday.  So I wanted to sit down and get ready for that. I've been prioritizing a lot of my high-end makeup because of the upcoming sales. I kind of just wanted to sit down, get ready, use some of the other new products that I have that I've been wanting to test that have been put on at the back burner. The majority of the products in today's videos are gonna be affordable. I do have a couple high-end items, but I just wanna sit down, relax. And enjoy some makeup. So I'm really excited because today's video is actually sponsored by ELF Cosmetics. If you don't know what ELF is, did you know? ELF stands for Eyes, Lips, Face. I remember back in the day when their website was eyeslipsface.com. I've been wanting to try some new products from them. So I went to Ulta.  So I'm really excited. We're just gonna get into it. I've been seeing ELF a lot on TikTok. So I decided there was some stuff that I wanted to try out. So we're starting off with the Luminous Putty Primer. So I have the original one from ELF, which is like the universal one, but this one is the luminous one. And you guys know I have dry skin, so I wanted to give this one a try. So here's what it looks like, and let's spread it out. I like to make sure I stay up-to-date with ELF products just because I feel like they do such a good job of being more affordable alternatives for a lot of the high-end makeup that I typically talk about. So I do make an effort every now and then to make a big order off the website or go to Ulta to pick up a lot of stuff just because they come out with some great alternatives. And I know not all of my audience is only focused on high-end makeup. You watched me because I talk about high-end makeup, but I also wanna give alternatives that are a little bit more affordable. So that's why I try to keep on top of my ELF stuff. Their products are all 100% vegan, cruelty-free. And by the way, this made my makeup look really good, but I just really like featuring ELF as alternatives because they're vegan, cruelty-free and very affordable. So it's very accessible to a lot of you guys. Let's move on to the ELF Camo CC Cream. This is in the shade Light 210N. I bought this when it first came out and I've really been enjoying it. It's just a really great everyday foundation. I think my favorite thing about this is what you get for the price because every time I wear this, I feel like my skin just looks really nice and natural. This gives you good coverage and a really natural finish and you can build the coverage up to a pretty full coverage I've found. Normally I like to stick with the more natural medium coverage that it gives me, just the light layer because I feel like that's how it looks the most skin-like. And I've been seeing this a lot on TikTok, which is why I really wanted to pull it out for today's video. It just inspired me to grab this guy back out. It also has all of those good ingredients that all of the higher-end CC creams have, like peptides, diaminicides, hyaluronic acid, a favorite of my dry skin. Gonna put just a little bit on my neck over here. And with summer coming up, I've been forgetting to put my sunscreen on, which makes me feel horrible. So I'm trying to reach for ones that have sunscreen more now that the sun is coming out more. So at least I know this has SPF 30, so I always feel a little bit better when I forget my sunscreen that I at least have a little bit of extra protection. And I see, doesn't my skin just look good and healthy? They really killed it with this launch. I feel like it was one of their best launches that they've had lately. There's 20 shades. It's a really good formula and you really cannot beat the price for this. So, you know what? They actually sent me in a PR package, this foundation brush, and I forgot to use it. We'll use it for the concealer. Like I said, I just can't get over how amazing some of the ELF products are priced and how when I wear their products, I look good. I feel good for a lot less than I normally spend on makeup. Okay, let's move on to concealer. So I'm just using the Tarte Ultra Creamy Shape Tape concealer. This is available at Ulta. I've just been testing it out to see if I like it better. Then the original and I definitely do. Now it doesn't have complete similar qualities. Let me use the ELF Complexion Brush for this. I think the smaller side, ooh, is perfect for right in here. Never forget when you're concealing, to blend your concealer in the inside nose area right here because that's what low key makes you look the most tired and you often forget this area. So this little brush is really nice. I think that's probably true big. I love ELF brushes. I know I use a lot of higher end brushes typically but I had my ELF brush days back when I was, you know, in middle high school when I couldn't afford natural hair brushes and all the brushes that I'm blessed enough to use today. And I still have some ELF brushes that are stable in my collection. Anyways, this brush did a really nice job.  Let's do eyebrows. Next, I picked up at Ulta a couple of new ELF eyebrow products to try. They have a eyebrow pencil. It's like their $3 one. It's really, really affordable. That's become a staple in my routine. So I wanted to try another one. So I saw they had the ultra precise brow pencil. I got mine in the shade neutral brown. So I always thought that the other one was a bit thick and I saw they had this precise one. So I thought I would give it a try because this style is a little bit more my speed. By the way, all of the products that I'm using are linked down below in the description box in the order that I use them so you can easily shop through them. This is really nice. I just spent a lot of money on the Charlotte Tilbury whole brow system and I really liked it, but dang. I pick up some of my favorite affordable brow pencils and I'm like, why did I do that? I really like this one. It's like waxy. It's not too creamy. Deposit's a good amount of color. Now this is why ELF is doing so well. They come out with really trendy products. They follow the trends. Quality is just so good for what you pay. One more eyebrow product to try that I picked out. This is the Wow Brow Volumizing Fiber Gel in the shade neutral brown as well. Now the vibe I'm getting from neutral brown, it's a bit darker than what I prefer. And really it's like the perfect color for my hair color, but I just, I don't know, I've always just preferred lighter colored brow stuff for myself. Made a mess. This is okay. I prefer my brow gels to have a little bit more hold. I like that it doesn't deposit too much color. You know how sometimes tinted brow gels they give you too much color and your brows lose their shape because you don't have much precision with a product like that. It still allowed me to keep the precision on my brows, but it doesn't have the strongest hold, if that makes sense. You know, why am I so far away? I'm sorry it took me so long to realize that. I always forget when I'm getting ready. You guys can see how good my skin looks though. Yeah, that tinted brow gel did not give me much hold. See how I'm just easily brushing my brows out? Anyways, that's okay. Let's move on. Okay, I picked up lots of cream products to try because cream products are trending. So I wanted to find, so I wanted to see if I could find some good dupes later on. So I saw Juicy Jads using this. This is the Cream Contour Palette and let's just try it out. I'm gonna actually try it with the complexion brush. So we'll start off with the lightest shade. Well, I like that it's not like getting stuck. It's like blending out pretty nicely. This brush is really good for cream and liquid products. I don't know, like I said, how I'd feel about it for foundation because I'm really picky but it's doing really nice with this stuff. Wow, I'm impressed. Normally I find affordable cream products to not really be blendable, but this is doing such a good job. Nobody talks about this. Okay, let's go a little bit deeper just for some depth underneath the cheekbone. This is about to get all over my mask, isn't it? I like that. Okay, so I'll have to see how this wears but so far this gets a thumbs up really good for a cream product. Pick up two cream blushes to play with. So I picked up another color of the Putty Blush. I don't know why this is really dark. I don't think I'm gonna like it. Looking at the palette that I'm using today, we're going to use the Multi Stick. Never tried this formula from Alpha Four and I've been eyeing it so I figure why not. So this is the Shea Dazzling Peony. It's a little bit of pigment. Creamier than I thought it would be. Let's try it out. Oh, that's nice. I've got to admit I was doubtful about how these cream products would work because I'm so picky with them. I hope it lasts a long time. Let's start with powder now since I am wearing a mask. I got this in a PR package. This is from the brand Wonder Two and it is a powder. It's a tinted powder. It's supposed to be a foundation powder but I want to set with it to try it out. So here's what the packaging looks like. Looks like it might be a little bit dark for me. This is the shade Light to Medium. I'm still going to use it anyways, whatever. This is made in Italy, by the way, which is awesome. I don't know much about this brand but I like things made in Italy. I'm going to set it down here and then whatever's left to bring it up because I think it's a bit deep so I don't want too much of the color to deposit. Ooh, but that's really blurring on the skin. Wow. I think they sell this brand at like CBS. But oh wow, I like this. This is really nice. A product that I've been playing with recently. I'm going to use it to set the color products in my face. Is this Physicians Formula All Star Face Palette. These are always such a good deal and I'm always so attracted to them. We're going to start off with the bronzer up here. I'm just going to set the cream bronzer since I'm wearing a mask. Like when we no longer have to wear masks and it's safe not to wear masks, I'm going to go all out with the creams but creams and masks kind of freak me out, honestly. So I have to set and then let's use this pretty color right here. Now I like this palette but it's not my favorite palette from Physicians Formula. The Whaley one was just so good. This one's okay, but for me, it's more about the value of this. It's just so good because Physicians Formula can get quite pricey for an affordable brand. So I like to buy these because the value is really nice but it did a good job. It looks nice. We're just going to grab a highlight from here as well because I don't think I have one now. This one is like really, really shiny. Whatever, here we go. Oh, it's an overspray. Okay, why did I not know that? Let me clean this off. This is much more my taste now. Ooh, that's pretty. Okay, I was scared to use this at first because of that overspray. Why did they do that? Because this is so much more appealing to me. Wow, that's really pretty. Okay, awesome. Let's keep it moving. But I really like that. My complexion right now is looking so good. I'm impressed. Everything from the foundation, the concealer, the cream products, the setting powder, everything is just working for me today. I don't want to speak too soon though. We have the eyes. So I picked up this palette. I've been wanting to try it so badly. I had FOMO because I wasn't going to pick it up. This is the Tarte, I don't even know what it's, Partlet Juicy palette. I just, I didn't want this at first. I'm not into Tarte like that but I heard so many good things about this palette and it is a beautiful color story. Look at this. I love how the tones are arranged here. I love that you have neutral tones, pinky tones. I'm really excited to play with this today. I'm going to put a little bit of this CC cream on my eyelids and we're going to use this as an eyeshadow base today.  So do I want to go more pinky or more neutral today? I guess more pinky because I have this beautiful cheek on. So let's start off with Blossom. I'm just going to press that into the crease. We're going very simple with the makeup today. So don't expect anything fancy since I am leaving my house after this. Hey, let's add a little bit more depth with Petal. The mirror in this palette is not good, by the way. It's making me look like I'm in a fun house. The shadows themselves, they aren't too loosely packed which I like. I'm not a big expert on Tarte's formula by the way but I mean, I'm using pretty easy colors to formulate but they look nice. I don't know what else to say. They look pretty. I feel like this palette's lacking a little bit of depth. Like I need this shade a little bit deeper. I guess I'll go into the brown but I feel like I could use something a little bit deeper but that's okay. Just doing a fresh pink eye. I'm like starting to round up my favorite spring palettes for a spring palettes video. And I think this might be one of them as long as the formula continues to work as it's working. I'm going in with a little bit more Petal. I'm just going to run this along the lower lash line. I didn't clean my brush off so there's still a little bit of like brown mixed into it. I want to bring more pink back so we're going to go back into Blossom and just kind of blend everything out once more. Everything's blending really nice. Okay, let's go into Orchid. It's not the creamiest feeling. What about Dream Chaser? This one feels more creamy. Ooh, I don't know. Okay, I guess we'll go in with the darker shade. Right out here in the lighter shade right here. I'm not mad at it. It looks good. Now we're going to go into Paradise. I'm going to put it almost in my inner corner just like right here just to brighten it up. And then I'm going to go into Water Lily which is the brightest. You'll see I just used corner of my brush to pop this one in the inner corner. And I do want a little bit more depth down here. So we're going to go into Euphoric. I love the way this palette smells. It has that vanilla scent that I know all of the tart palettes have. Ooh, it's good. I'm putting this close to the lash line just because I like the definition. Listen, so I'm not completely wowed by this palette. I don't have anything bad to say but I don't have much else to say. It's got, it's a good palette. I wasn't in love with the shimmers. I think the mattes blended out very nicely. I'm going to have to continue playing with this more because I didn't use that many colors today but I don't know. I heard so many good reviews. I thought it was going to be amazing. It didn't knock my socks off. It's really pretty. Don't get me wrong. And the colors worked just fine. The looks really pretty. That's why you don't have anything bad to say but when you're an eyeshadow snob like me, it's hard to impress me. That's what it is. You'll like it. I'm just a snob. It's good. Okay, let's go to eyeliner now. Going back into Wonder 2, they sent me a Superstay eyeliner. I didn't have very many new eyeliners to choose from so I saw this guy sitting in my drawer asking to be played with. So let's do it. Ooh, really creamy. I've been playing with the Gucci eye pencil recently and that one is not creamy at all. So this is a nice change. Hold on, I can't talk though. I was having a good time with this pencil and I ended up putting on way more than I thought I would and just going fully black eyeliner everywhere but it's so creamy. I really like it. So far I'm gonna have to see obviously with wear time that's where the true test comes from but this is made in Germany. Germany makes the best lip liners and eyeliners. Typical trend that I've noticed so I have high hopes about this. Here's something that I've heard a lot about that's really good so I wanted to try it out from Elf. This is the lash it loud mascara. I believe it's fairly new from them. Anyhow, I don't want to be too judgmental at first because one, I have the worst lashes known to man and two, usually I don't like mascaras on the first try anyways but I don't know. This kind of wand isn't normally my cup of tea but let's just do it. First coat's okay. I'm gonna give it some time to dry and then I'm gonna put a second coat on. I might put falsies on. I'll update you, give me one second. I got a little bit of help from some Ardells. They are the Ardell 424, very, very natural. You can see my lower lash line. I'm actually not mad at the mascara. Again, I still probably want to play with it some more but I can see why people are liking it especially if you actually have lashes that like me I can see being pretty good. We're gonna finish off with lips. I'm teeter tottering between a few items. I heard the Elf hydrating quarter lip shine was good so I chose the shade Joyful to pick up. I'm gonna swatch it. Let me get the vibe here. Like it has like a little heart. Oh, okay. Yeah, this is a vibe, like nothing. Mmm, it feels like water relish. You know, if I'm wearing a mask and eating dinner, I could wear this tonight but I wanna take a photo so I've been wanting to try this lipstick from Wonder Beauty or Wonder 2, whatever it is. This is the must have matte in the shade Needed Nude. I don't know where this brand has been all my life but it's made in France, this lipstick. Ooh, that looks good. Let me get a lip liner. I thought this was pillow talk. It's not, it's iconic nude but that's fine. Doesn't really matter. What's going for pillow talk but this is like the perfect shade for this look. Did I tell you the name Needed Nude? This is a nice lipstick, really smooth. I mean, this is the look for my date night.  Here is the final look, just a blushing pink look. I really love everything that I tried today. The base is probably my favorite part. With the CC cream, the luminous primer, the concealer and then a surprise from those cream products and the powder, like the base looks really flawless. The eyeshadow, I like, I don't love it though but I wanna continue playing with it. Created a really pretty look, was impressed with the eyeliner, the mascara's not bad. Did I get a lipstick on my teeth? Oh no, I like the lipstick. So overall, oh, eyebrows was good too. Overall, pretty solid testing experience. Sometimes they can go south really fast. Today everything was pretty good. I really enjoyed the look. Look at this Physician's Formula highlight. Wow, highly recommend that, that's also really good. And for the most part, pretty affordable. I always feel good when I find some really nice affordable products for you guys. So again, thank you so much to Elf Cosmetics for sponsoring today's video. Everything that I used will be linked down below for your shopping pleasure. If you aren't subscribed to my channel already, I would love it if you would consider taking the time to do so. And I will see you all in the next one. Bye guys, have a good one.


These aren't God made animals. These are human made animals. This is nothing from God. This is something humans have created for our greed. Have you seen this before, bro? Do you know what this is? Yeah. We're trying to get people to stop eating animals and using animals, especially around this time of year. What do you think about that? I'm not saying that we can stop eating animals, to be honest. You don't say that? No, no. But the way that they slaughter them is the way that I don't think it's good to know. You think that the way they slaughter them is bad? But it's not bad that they slaughter them? That's what I think is life. That's life? Do you think we can live without slaughtering animals? Really? What makes you say that? Because I think from when human beings have been there, they're eating animals. So I don't think that they can change it from now. Because it's something habits from like, centuries. Oh, so you mean more like they have a habit, so they can't change that habit? But I mean, do you think physically we can live without slaughtering animals? But I think what you want them to eat like carrots and broccoli and that kind of thing. Like what are we going to eat? Well, we can eat. There's like thousands of plant foods to eat. There's only like a dozen animal products. There's thousands of plant foods and we can get our protein and nutrients from plants and with a B12 supplement, I've been vegan for seven years. So you've got whole grains, legumes, nuts and seeds and fruits and vegetables. And we can, I don't know if you want some food, but we're giving out no turkey-turkey sandwiches. So it's meat made out of wheat, like satan. Yeah, I know. I know what you mean. You can make meat out of peas. So yeah, you can still have a burger. It's made out of peas. You know what I mean? Yeah, I know. I know you're talking. I know what you're feeling of it. So I'm not having only a conversation because I know your way. I know what I'm talking about. Oh really? That's like, it's like something, you know, like it's a good way to express your things. It's good that you're putting different videos. So it's like, I'm not like against vegan, don't eat vegan. I'm not the same thing, I'm against like, don't eat animals. Yeah, so you're not against this. You support this, what you see on the screens? No, not the same way, because I'm a Muslim. So the things are how they slaughter the things. We have like, we have like a rule that's slaughtered. Yeah, I know all about it. Yeah, so we have like- I have many discussions with Muslims about this topic. Yeah, so because I know how like there's a rule that you need to slaughter the animals. Okay, yeah. Not the same as this. Where do you get your meat from? The butcher? Oh yes. Okay. And you follow the animal down the line? You know where the farm, what farm the animal come from? You trust the butcher? No, now it is, yes. Okay. Because like, we get the meat from them. Because like- Okay. And I'm not like in the city. So if you're like in- Suburb, like- Yeah, something like this. I would get my sheep and I would slaughter them. Because now it's in the city, that's the thing. Okay, yeah, yeah. Where do you get your halal meat from? So you're out now, what do you eat? You go to a subway? No, no, any place. Any place that serves halal meat? Yeah. And it just says halal and you trust them? Yes. Because most of them say halal and they have the certificate there. Okay. And how do they slaughter halal animals in the UK? What I know is the same thing for the timbula and then they say Bismillah and they cut it. That's the thing. Okay. Do you think they stun halal animals here? Like with the stunning Tabas? You know that shock them to make them go to sleep? They put a bolt in their head? I don't think so, because that would not be... I mean, I know what you think of Halal slaughter. You think, oh, they face here, they say a prayer, they make sure the animals don't see each other and they slash their throat, yeah? Yeah. You think they do that here in the UK? That's what they need to do and that's what the Islamic Association tries to do. And where do the animals come from? They've come from factory farms. The chickens and the... Yeah. Yeah, they come from factory farms. Yeah, and suffering is haram, yeah? If animal suffers, it's haram, yeah? Yes. Okay, you don't think they're suffering in the factory farms before they're halal slaughtered? I don't have that kind of idea there, I don't have any image. I want to know what you think about the... If suffering is haram, do you think these animals that you eat are suffering?  I trust there's no suffering. No, no, no. So, I'm not talking about the point, at least there's a... Because we're human beings, so we're human beings make some mistakes. I don't think that everyone who sells halal meats like they don't suffer the animals, or everyone doesn't suffer the animals. I'll say to you, they all suffer. Yeah, it depends. They all suffer. Yeah, it depends on the humans what they, what they're going to do. They all suffer.  You see an animal when they're about to die?  Traditional... I've made it already. You've done it yourself? Yeah. Okay, do you think that animal suffered?  Both. You've killed them both? And that animal, did they suffer? I know, but like, I need to eat them. That's the thing. Yeah, but brother, I just want to know, like, if they suffered? Yeah, they suffered.  So that's the thing. That's haram? I don't know, wait, but when you do this thing, you take out the blood from the body. So like, the disease goes out. That's the wisdom from the, from the thingy. Why, why, why, why you made the blood goes out first? Well, I don't, I'm not talking about the health side of it. I'm talking about the, the, the suffering. Yeah, I'm talking about why they're doing this. They're making sure they don't seed each other so they don't know they're about to be killed, yeah? But, but they don't do that in the, in the West here when you eat halal meat.    I've seen it. Traditional halal slaughter, yeah, yeah. They don't, I mean, here you're getting your halal meat from factories. See, I see, I came, I came from Saudi Arabia. So I'm just, I'm the student here. So I don't know the thing that you, because you're living here more than me. Well, I know a little bit about the halal slaughter guidelines here. They're not too much different.  Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, like, because I came from that, that back there, back there, so I don't know how it's there. You assume that it's like it is over there? Yeah, that's the thing. Okay, but. You know, you know more than me as you're living here. Well, I just want to tell you, vegan is always halal. Yeah, I know. It's always halal. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know. And you know, you don't have to trust the butcher. You know, vegan is always halal. Yeah, but. Because plants don't suffer. There's no halal slaughter of carrots. Yes, I know. Yeah.  No, no, we're having no turkey rolls here. It's meat. No, no, no, no. It's meat, it's meat. It's made of plants, so. I know what you're talking about. Like, for me, when I hear it, I say, no, no, I'm having a meat. Yeah, but. Like, it's like, it's something which I don't.  You know what I mean?  But that's what I said it's like. It's not life. It doesn't have to be life, anyway.  Yes. You know, fish suffer. And there's no halal slaughter of carrots or fish. That is suffer. It's every, every, every sea animal is like halal for you. Yeah, but that doesn't make sense because. Like, it's like, it does, because like there's, you don't need like to chop it or do something. They just suffocate.  They suffer longer. Yeah, I'm saying they suffer more. In seafood, suffer's more. Fish suffer more. So, in the, in the Quran, they ripped out that long ago. They didn't think fish suffer back then. Now we've got science. We know fish suffer. So that's haram. But like, that's if you want to eat. Well, you, ah, dude, but you've got choice. What's more halal? Eating plants or cutting an animal's head off or making fish suffer? But if you talk about this thing, it's like, it's, it's plants. Okay. I'm talking about that kind of. Right now, right now, I'm saying right here, it's more halal to eat plants. And also like the dairy industry, I don't know if you eat cheese and milk from a car. Okay. Do they kill them in the halal way?  For cheese? Yeah. When they don't produce milk anymore, they kill them and send them to make McDonald's out of their bodies, turn them into burgers. Yeah. So do you think Nestlord had halal when you buy milk? They're suffering in the dairy industry because they take their calves away from them? That's not, that's not halal. That's haram. Yeah. It's suffering. It's suffering. That's what I'm saying. When you can avoid this, you know, it's still be a good Muslim. There's a lot, I know a lot of vegan Muslims. You know, I'm saying like, believe in God, practice your religion. Even, I eat these kind of things. I don't say I'll eat, but I cannot say like, take this, take the meats off and just like, let us eat vegan.  I'm not saying I'm against that kind of things. I eat them, but don't say to me, leave the meat and eat, only continue. Well, I'm just saying if you're against suffering in animal cruelty, then you should.  And if you care about what's halal, I mean, you're just saying, oh, it's halal, I've got a free ticket out.  It's all suffering. But like even in the Quran, it's written that we made animals, that certain kind of animals to eat so you can live. But you don't need them to live. So now you're doing something that's unnecessary. It's needless.  I mean, I don't know if that's good in the eyes of God. I mean, okay, you have to survive, maybe. That's fine, you've got to survive.  I could understand. Now it's needless, cruelty and suffering. Yeah, I know that what you're talking about and even I cannot answer what you're talking about. So it's like, you're like one point ahead of me. I'm not trying to be rude. I'm just trying to speak from the animals here. They're suffering. It's obvious. What are you talking to me? It's obvious. Yeah, it's obvious. And in your heart. It's like halas, you have that kind of thing slowly. See, I don't see that stop animals. See that chicken, there's like, see that 10 million chickens have been started every day. See, as I don't, let us make it. 850 million a year in the UK alone. Yeah, I'm saying let's make it 200 million a year. It's about 50 billion worldwide chickens. You know how many fish? 3 trillion, 2 between 1 and 3 trillion marine animals. You know how much suffering that is? That's a lot of suffering. Yeah, I know. I'm not talking about numbers. I'm taking like 30, as you said, 3 trillions of fish. Don't start at 3 trillions. Start at like 1 billion. It doesn't matter in the eyes of God. You make one animal suffer, that's haram. It doesn't matter. One, you don't need to, you know? I know what you're talking about. Yeah. I know what you're talking about. I know what you're saying even because I'm feeling what you're saying. Yeah.  With compassion and conscience. You know right from wrong. It doesn't matter what's written in a book that God didn't write. If you believe God created us, when you look at this cruelty, when you look at this suffering, when you see an animal get their throat slashed open and they're struggling and they're scared, what does your heart tell you? And that's God talking to you. This isn't right. You don't need to do this. Now, you can justify it to yourself if you had to. If you're in a survival situation in the eyes of God, you did what you had to do. But when you don't need to do it, can you really justify that? You know right now you can be vegan here in the UK. You know that. And you can still be a Muslim. It's not haram to be vegan. It's halal. It's more halal. I eat vegan. Yeah, yeah. I eat these kinds of things.  And you know now, and your conscience and your heart, when you leave here today, you know when you buy that meat, animals suffered and died. Yeah. I know what you're talking about. I can give you this. You're right what you're talking about. The suffering thing. It's like you're talking about something that I didn't think of. You took the religion and you took it all hook, line and sink without analysing things. I'm not saying God doesn't exist or whatever. You know, that's not for me to tell you. You know, it's like I'm talking when I say that, ah, they're suffering things. That's life. That's what they made for me. That's what I was thinking about. Now, these animals are not even made by God. These are selectively bred animals made by humans. They don't exist in the wild. These aren't God made animals. These are human made animals. This is nothing from God. This is something humans have created for our greed. That's haram. You go to a slaughterhouse. That's haram. There's blood and suffering and scared animals everywhere. That's from the devil. I don't know if you believe in the devil, if Muslims believe in the devil, but that's got nothing to do with God, what you see in a slaughterhouse.  And if you think covering their eyes and slashing a sharp knife across their throat somehow makes it better or absolves you from what you're doing to this animal, it doesn't. If anything, it's worse because you're trying to stop the suffering but you're cutting off their head.   So we're going to try to do this as good as possible. If they don't deserve to suffer, let them live. Leave them alone. That's what's more consistent with God and with your religion, I feel. And I don't know much about Muhammad or whatever, but I could probably guess that if there was a way to live without slaughtering billions of animals causing, he would choose that way because maybe he's more smart, logical. Maybe God is intelligent. This is like the most unintelligent cruel thing we do. I can see that that thing wasn't there back then. No. Vegan. I thought it was the vegan thing. No. We have technology now. Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. That's what I cannot talk because that's what you do. Was your mobile phone in the Quran? You still use it. Your mobile phone technology, you know, you can progress with society as a Muslim. So you can progress now with eating plant-based foods.  If you scan this, this will give you a little Christmas download packet. We'll show you all the good vegan stuff is at Christmas time. There's something called Challenge 22. They help you be vegan. The January is another good one. If you want some food, man, we're handing out food as well. All right. I can tell you're ticking over, man. You're smart. You're not, you know. I had a good conversation. Yeah. That's why I was standing here. I was waiting just for a conversation. Yeah.  Yeah. But not like... It's honest, man. We're honest with each other, you know what I mean? It's like the thing, you know, I'm good, I mean, you're right and I'm right. That's what I'm... That's what I liked from you. Yeah.  That's good. So have a good conversation. Bless you, mate. Take care. This is me in a turkey farm in the UK the other night, not long ago. They peck each other in there. I would have asked them people to be vegan so they stopped paying for animals to be tortured and killed. We think animals deserve respect and they don't deserve to be killed for a five-minute meal that we forget about, you know. We don't need to eat meat to survive or be healthy. So we decided promoting compassion to animals and, you know, this is filmed in the UK. We're focusing on turkeys because it's Christmas. But we also think that we shouldn't be eating any other animals or using other animals, you know, exploiting them for their skin. Just that we think they feel pain, suffer.  We're not trying to survive or anything anymore. And yeah. Yeah, they use the slaves. Yeah, it's unnecessary, needless. So like, I don't know, you guys live here? You guys live in the UK? Yeah. Yeah, so most of the animals here are factory farmed. 95% of the chickens are over 90% of the pigs.  Yeah, you Muslim? Yeah. Muslim? Yeah, so like the, you know, the lambs and the cows and the dairy cows, they will go to the slaughterhouse, obviously. And yeah, well, to be honest, we've actually stopped eating chicken like, we've not stopped eating our meats, but chicken is one thing that we have stopped on. And that's because of, like, my dad's saying that it's just always injected and stuff like that. So even though you're getting the burgers and whatnot, it's not the actual chicken. It's like all filled with chemicals and stuff. And we believe, like, that's what's actually causing cancer and stuff like that. So it could be because there was no such thing as cancer years ago and all that. And now everyone's getting all these illnesses and it's like, it's probably from, like, all these meats that have been injected to, like, making more, you know... Well, it could be. There's a lot of hormones, I mean, yeah, and dairies full of hormones and things like this.  There's cholesterol that clogs our arteries as well. And cholesterol is only found in animal products. Gas chain. That's a gas chamber, yeah. Yeah, the main way they kill turkeys is in the gas chamber.  Is that like a load? Yeah. Well, they treat birds like products, you know what I mean? So, like, I don't know if you guys eat turkeys at Christmas time or anything. You probably don't celebrate, don't celebrate Christmas anyway. Yeah, but like, you know... Yeah. Now, the dairy industry's horrible too, so the cheese and milk from the cow, like, they forcibly impregnate the cow and then they take her calves away, like, when they're born, because they don't want the calf drinking the milk. And then, if they're born a boy, they don't use the boys in the dairy industry, they can shoot them in the head on the farm. And then, year after year, they're being forcibly impregnated to have their calf taken. And then, when their milk production gets lower and lower and lower, they kill the mother as well.   Yeah. Yeah, so we just have soya milk or oat milk or rice milk. I've just realised you've got vegan on your neck. Yeah, I've been vegan seven years. Oh, wow. So, you're being vegan. You can be a Muslim vegan. Being vegan is halal. I mean, it's the only true halal.  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because there's no suffering. Yeah. No, plants can't suffer. There's no halal slaughter for carrots. Just like beans and all that stuff. Whole grains, beans, legumes. Lentils and all that stuff. Lentils and fruits and vegetables are the most nutrient-dense foods on earth. I mean... Yeah. Yeah. There's no nutrients in a steak. I mean, what's in a steak? A bit of protein, a blood, iron. You know, you can get all this from... The animal eats the plants to get the nutrients anyway. You know? Cut out the middle, man. Yeah. But I always say like...  Like, they still suffer.  They get scared. Even if they can't see each other when they're being slaughtered. They feel the knife. They can't breathe. There's that fear. There's that suffering. There's nerves all in your neck. So, if you can avoid that and just eat plants, why wouldn't you? I mean, it's more... It's definitely no suffering in the plants. And a lot of Muslims don't follow the animal all the way down from the farm to the butcher. They trust the butcher. The butcher says it's halal. I trust them. In the UK, halal standards are much different. So, they stun the animals and most of the animals here are factory farms. So, if suffering's haram, there's suffering in factory farms no matter what. And the dairy industry is always suffering because you're taking the calves away from the mother. She suffers when she loses her babies.  She suffers when she's afraid in the slaughterhouse before they die. They don't know what's going on. They smell the blood and fear. You can't avoid suffering when you're eating animal products. You just can't. And now, like, nowadays, we don't have to do it. It's needless. So, it makes it even worse. We're needlessly slaughtering animals. So, like, we've not got no other options. Yeah, yeah. I mean, no other option to understand. Okay, you've got to mitigate the suffering. So, you try to make sure they're not scared and you try to do it quick. Yeah. Okay, but you don't have to do that. I mean, if I had to kill one of you guys in some situation, I'd want it to be quick and painless. But I don't, right now, we don't have to do it. So, it's like, kind of like, why are we doing it for us? So, yeah. Let me give you some information here. So, this is a little guide. These are some documentaries. This is what happens to animals in the UK. And then we've got, like, how? Find vegan restaurants near you. These places usually have good vegan options and what to swap meat and dairy with. And then on the front here, free help going vegan, challenge 22.  So, like, all vegan Christmas little meals and that. You don't celebrate Christmas, but it shows you, like, where all good vegan stuff is, anyway. So, yeah, I'll thank you very much. Yeah. It's like, I like that, I think. It makes a difference if you think about these things. Like, I've been born, you know, you meet and stuff like that. It's just an honor for me. So, as I, I ate meat for 26 years as well, you know. You're eating someone. Someone who had a personality that didn't want to die. I mean, it's just so needless now. And UK is a really easy place to be vegan. Yeah. Well, good luck, guys. Nice talking to you. Take care, bye-bye.
