I love how you are finding positive aspects of even some things you’re decluttering. You always have something good to say even if it’s not a frag for you.

Girl you should be so proud of yourself. My father was an alcoholic and he ruined my childhood. I hope you’ve got some friends who are like minded or at least respectful of your sobriety. Good job!! 👏🏻

Congratulations on your sobriety 🎉. You got this! That Milk+ is definitely on my list

So so many of my friends are going sober. I think all of us are just feeling heavy. Stressed and broke. Dropping the alcohol seems natural. I’m not saying I’ll never drink again, but I’m happy to quit 90% to start.

I love a good declutter. I only have 22 perfumes, and managed to declutter two of them because I found myself not only not reaching for them, but actively avoiding them. Time to go.

Love this!! So proud of you for trying to stop drinking. Especially during the holidays!❤️ It’s tough, especially with how normalized excessive drinking is especially in young adults. Im 27, and after being over a year sober from alcohol I can say it has changed my life completely, I’ll never drink again!

Thank you for being vulnerable with us. I always get a bit down around the holidays, but this year, I tapped out of most events, and it was the least sad I've felt. Treating Christmas and New Year like any ol' day was the BEST and took away all the pressure... and depsite what my brain told me....the world didn't end because I spent those days chilling on my couch alone 😂.

I literally started smearing my glow recipe banana face cream on my arms to smell like banana at night. I never thought there would be a banana perfume.

@@DCSquirrelcan I ask if you’re using a skin filter or what exactly you’re using for your skin? Your skin especially on your body/neck etc looks so perfect that it looks unreal because it looks so airbrushed. I’d truly appreciate an honest response & sharing your ‘secret’ (whether it’s a certain filter or a certain skin product🙂) thank you so much in advance 🙏

I abstain from alcohol due to my religious conviction, my whole family do. But even in Malaysia, the pressure to drink alcohol during festive season is very high. People look at us like we're being rude when we politely decline to the drinks offered. There is an overall negative assumption about us. Just be assured that you are going the right path. There will always be resistance, inwardly & outwardly, but I pray that you have the strength & help to stay sober. 🧡

I love how every video feels like I'm hanging with a friend and I'm also so interested in what Olivia has to say. I am so happy the algorithm gods thought she was someone I needed to find

Thank goodness, someone who's totally real with the world and not glazing over life's struggles. Also, love this eye look!!

New here but thank you for your honesty about giving up alcohol what a healthy choice. The holidays can be so hard in general with everyone celebrating and if you are dealing with anything it can be isolating....thus a quick spritz boosts the mood too❤

From one sober person to another- congratulations!

Congratulations on the sobriety, keep pushing! Xxx

The Skylar rollerballs are super easy to take off and then decant into an atomizer! I do that for the scent of the month rollerballs - their newest one Caramel Alps is soooo good!

Been sober since June!! You’re not alone. I didn’t have an issue with alcohol but I found myself looking forward to the weekend for the drinking, not something I liked in myself. It’s possible to be sober without being an alcoholic. You’re amazing for sharing your sobriety 🎉❤🎉❤🎉

Happy new year! Only recently discovered your channel and really enjoy it!

Congrats on your sobriety! Bravo! I got sober 2 years ago and it’s the best thing I’ve ever done!!! Love a good declutter, keeps me in check lol.

I love your descriptions! So spot on!

Love declutters! Great video, love your energi 😁

Really enjoy you and your videos Olivia, thanks for sharing and being open about your struggles. Good luck on your journey!

Such a good video! I feel you on the need to declutter and why. There have been a couple I've given away to friends that I've missed after, but when you see that they like it, you don't miss it anymore. Here's to a great new year!

Another wonderfully informative video! Wishing you a Happy New Year; I know that so many of us are very much looking forward to all that you will be bringing to your channel and your socials, so thank you for all of the knowledge, humor, and candor you continue to share. 💗

YES sobriety! also, i tried le labo the noir 29 on your rec, and.. i'm so in love. thank you for that!

Love you Olivia! Thankyou for being so candid it makes me feel less alone ❤

congratulations on your journey

New subbie here! Loving your vibe. You spoke directly to my soul with your disdain for rollerballs and dabbers. 😂 And when you opened up about how difficult NYE and the holidays can be. Thank you for sharing 💜 Wishing you a healthy, joy filled 2024

I decant all my roller balls and dabbers into spray bottles from Amazon. Great video and happy new year! ❤

Always so soothing and interesting. Love yaaaaa ❤

You look amazing! You are going through a difficult time but you are still putting on your smile and doing this video. Way to go! You are inspiring! I need to do some decluttering.

thanks Olivia!

I feel the same way about rollerballs, I've always worried about the unhygienic aspect of direct skin contact. I'm glad to be validated about that! And I want to experience it by spraying it all over and on my clothes or it just won't last. The worst offender is the Aesop Marrakech roller.

Love everything you do ❤

Proud of you for keeping strong. Thanks for all you do for us frag lovers!

If only I watched this yesterday 😢! Thank you for your vulnerability and generosity!

Sorry you are feeling down. I was in the same space in Saturday and not much I could do about it.. awesome that you were able to show up for the video. Love your shares and love that you mention that sometimes the journey with perfume is like the journey in life and we have to come to terms with who we are.. I dont feel like I am a clean-girl scent girl either and just have to accept who I am, lol! Sending you love❤❤

I’m sorry this holiday season has been rough for you,but congratulations on your sobriety!,I hope things get easier for you Olivia.

Olivia thank you for sharing. ❤ your videos and your honesty. Congratulations on your sobriety- one day at a time. You are an Amazing human being 🤗

Congratulations on your sobriety, beautiful lady. We're straight edge here, and it's a non-issue around the holidays now as everyone we hang with just knows. Hoping you find that easy place to be with your people and family, too! In the meantime, thanks for another great bit of content, and girrrlll, that eye makeup with week! 🔥🔥🔥

“Santal Jr.” LOL. Happy New Year and keep up the great sobriety work!!

Happy for you!

I hold onto things way too long. Thank you for the courage to start decluttering! I just picked up my first bottle for the new year, Gorse by laboratory perfumes and I love it

Love the baby blue inner corner highlight!!!

Happy New Year❤❤

I also have been going sober from everything lately for a few reasons and it was stressful since I was anticipating uncomfortable questions from family members who drink, and I didn't want to have to explain myself. You shouldn't HAVE to explain yourself, just making a healthy choice to remove things from your life, for as long as you choose, because there's some kind of weird pressure and expectation from others. I made a point to pick myself up some non-alcoholic goodies so I could "drink" alongside my family (non-abv ginger beer comes in many delicious forms these days) and it helped me feel involved without compromising my choices. And it also seemed to keep people off my back. This internet stranger is proud of you for keeping to your personal choices. Solidarity!

Sobriety can be hard. So proud of you coming through!

Your eye makeup is alway so very stunning!❤

Loving this hair!! Gorgeous! Happy Hew Year!

Im so proud of you 🩷

Hope you have a fantastic year Olivia. 🥰 Don't let those stealthy infections get you down. Incidentally, I've always been fascinated just how quickly an unpleasant scent can turn into a churning stomach. 🤢 Almost as if the body wants the air out asap. 😆 The simple solution was not to breathe, but I can't seem to get that one down either. 😂 One day!

Congratulations on your life journey…I can’t mos def relate and will Be sending you “Good Vibrations”always✌🏾💕

Love a good declutter to enter the new year!! I like the 5sens perfumes a lot - I think they're a good brand overall for beginners, as is Skylar. Maybe not for a perfume lover or someone with a large collection.

New to fragrance, learning lots binge watching you. Thanks for sharing about your sobriety! I'm nearly 8 years. Subscribed!

Hope your new year brings you joy. ❤

Agreed on rollerballs queen

Love ya Olivia!

Happy New Year Olivia! All the best for you! Watching you with a non alcoholic Corona bear! 😂

Loving your hair colour!

It’s not often ppl are real here on yt, thank you for your honesty, the world is a better place for it ❤ p.s. omg, hearing you talk about your banana fragrance again… I just realized banana skittles are my FAVE skittle flavor and it would TOTALLY work as a fragrance!! I’m going to remember this if I ever come across the chance to build a fragrance 🍌 unless someone’s done it… a tangy candied banana with like mayyyybe a touch of pinapple and vanilla? I want it 😅

Congrats on decision! A few of my friends are doing the same for their health. They find that what helps is making mocktails so they can still hang out and have something to drink, but it’s not alcoholic. I’m actually grabbing a few small bottles of things so far this year to have better variety, since I have a very small collection right now!

Congratulations on being about six months sober! 💪

Congratulations on your sobriety! You are fabulous!!!

Congrats on your Sobriety Journey. I adore Your energy and expertise. So Glad to have found you

Congratulations on your sobriety -- I'm 15 months sober myself... best decision I've made in a long time. Thanks for your content. I'm trying to 'reinvent myself' scent-wise, and your videos have been really helpful.

as someone that also got sober young, it really is a struggle sometimes especially when alcohol is so socially normalized. take it one day at a time, you've got this

Your hair looks stunning 😍

Coming to this late, but sending you so much love 💖 I've not been drinking, and was just diagnosed with a million food allergies, so Christmas and New year's sucked. Sending you love and light x

Hi Olivia! I'm a huge fan of declutter videos too, and your thoughtful approach to fragrances always makes it a delight to watch. Being a fellow fragrance enthusiast with a sizable collection, I often found myself lost in my perfume gems. That's why I created a Notion template to keep track of my declutters, wishlists, budget, and overall collection. It's been a game-changer for me, and I thought it might be helpful for other fragrance lovers too. If you or anyone else is interested, just give me a shout!

OMG THOSE NAAAAAILS, hypnotic much? Could not stop staring at them lol

Congratulations ❤❤.

Congratulations on your sobriety !and happy new year 🎉 I like the Skylar perfumes, but they don't last ! I've not seen the finery fragrances in Canada I've seen them in target in the US the only one I liked was in a yellow bottle can't remember the name

Nice declutter!

Completely agree about the lack of longevity of Skylar & hatred for rollerballs & dabbers.

In reciprocation. Your channel is unique and refreshing. Thank you for providing your amazing content on top of everything else you have going on. Please know that we are so grateful. Happy 2024.

I found Myth when I was searching for a scent that smells like Biolage shampoo lol I love it.

New subscriber! Love your look! ❤

Olivia, I just smell Luminous from a coworker, and that smells exactly like Royal Secret is very old 😂. Like you said, it last, my coworker was wearing the body mist, and it lasted all day. ❤

Congrats on the growth of your channel....wow

Take care of yourself, friend! I hope you feel better this week 🫶

Congratulations. I Believe in you 💕

I stopped drinking at the end of June in 2023. I had a lot of health issues. I almost immediately fealt better but oh man, these holidays were hard.

I am so glad that you are the fairy godmother of smelly water. You make me smile. 😊

HAPPY NEW YEAR...New subby here... You are stunning and I love spraying my clothes too I rarely spray my skin because i have the Sahara Desert Skin and perfume last 5 mins on me

congrats on your sobriety, I love your hair!

Enjoyed , .. Thanks..

Ahhhh your a hairdresser that explains your always INCREDIBLE hair!!! ( you should try lumify eye drops to make the whites clear and make your eyes pop even more ) Loving your content. Ohhhh your collection makes me drool!! Love to know if you could only pick 3 fragrances out of your collection what would they be?!

E sober is so worth it. If you haven’t read this naked mind, do it. Very short but effective. Five years sober for me and not regretted it a single day, and the book helped me flip how I think about alcohol.

Yes! I was going to suggest that book too, I think everyone should read it. 2 1/2 years for me and the best decision I’ve ever made for myself, waking up feeling great never gets old 💯

I was so happy to try a clean vanilla fragrance (Skylar) but it gave me warm vanilla sugar from Bath and Body Works vibes

Really liked this video i must ask what nail polish are u wearing its freaking georgous

Damn, thanks for reminding me it’s Saturday. I’ve actually lost track of the days atp 😬🖤

Hey odd request but could you do a Paris corner review? And I hope 2024 gives you the energy you need to thrive off of!

I hate dabbers too, I got the AG set and didn’t realize until I got it. But I poured all of them out into some retractable glass travel containers I got from amazon. Turns out each dabber bottle has nearly a full size travel spray amount in each! So I definitely got my moneys worth

I have the spray version of not another cherry and I've actually gotten a few compliments on it lol

Great video :) please let me know what subtle glitter you are wearing on your eyes 👀 Your makeup today is so beautiful! + Also, I have stopped drinking too, and it is difficult!

Congratulations on your choice to quit drinking. You'll do great! I just discovered your videos today. Thanks for the review and information on perfumes. I love perfume! ❤ By the way what are you wearing on your nails? 💅🏼 I love that color!

I made the decision to quit drinking abt a year and a half ago. Since I quit, I have realized how much alcohol is engrained into our society and how making the decision to not drink is such a taboo thing. The looks I get when I say I don't drink. Almost a pity look like somehow I am automatically a raging alcoholic in their minds. Ya know cause clearly only alcoholics would ever make the decision not to drink.🙄 Or I get the "awww come on, it's just one drink! Don't be a party pooper!" Ughhhhh I just don't wanna drink. It's annoying. Anyways for whatever reason you have decided to quit, I stand w you! Hope things get better! Much love ❤️

I love your channel plus more content with the husband cheers ❤❤❤

I like to pour dabbler/roller bottles into travel sprays, if you do like the fragrance, that is!

So sad that Mercari isn't available in Canada :( would love to try some of your declutter

Is your Mercari under your KZread name? I’m trying to find you so I can purchase..also I think you’re drop dead GORGEOUS and everything about you SCREAMS STYLE. Loving your channel ❤

Nanatopia was a scrubber for me. It was so musky and animalic to me that it gave me an instant headache. Thank goodness I tried the sample and returned my unopened bottle. I did really like Happy Nuts though.
