Good morning guys.
It's sid and welcome back.
I'm so excited to go to target today.
As you can probably already tell, we're gonna be going self-care shopping.
I think the last self-care video i did was over a year ago now, and i also realized in the shower yesterday i was like wow, I have nothing.
I ran out of my body wash.
I don't have like a razor right now.
So that's kind of what sparked this video today.
I also have on these new nails.
Do you guys like them?
I love them.
They're fake.
I also made this necklace.
Can I just like shout myself out for a second for this?
I'm so proud.
Has like little kiss marks on it.
As you guys know, going into Target can sometimes be just like you get sucked into a black hole, because you go in for one thing and you leave with, and i actually made a list of things that i need.
There's kind of a lot, so i'll be using this.
I honestly don't even know why i made that list, because we all know that i'm just gonna divert from that and buy many, many more things than what our.
Okay, I grabbed my coffee really quick.
I wanna get decaf now because I feel like having this much caffeine is just like it cannot be good for me.
It's too late for that.
Okay guys, i'm gonna be so honest.
I just went to another target and i left because i literally just didn't like the vibes.
That's why and i'm filming in public, so there was like a lot of employees around, there's a lot of people i was scared.
I was scared, so i came to a different one.
I have no idea where to start, like i you know what.
Let me look at my list.
Okay, first thing on my list, i need an exfoliator.
I don't have one.
The one that i have is in minnesota.
I just like really need it, especially like when i try to get myself tan off.
Exfoliator is like really helpful.
I see the tea tree hut.
I feel like this is a target staple.
Rainbow sherbert, moonlight glow i think this is the one that i have back home.
This one's really nice.
It's very subtle and it smells like expensive.
I don't know, this one kind of scares me.
Sherbert, i don't want to smell like sherbert, you know, i don't know.
It doesn't really feel appealing.
I'd rather smell like vanilla.
Mmm, this one's really good.
You know how there's a difference between like artificial vanilla and then like authentic vanilla bean.
This, like, actually smells like authentic vanilla bean.
Just kidding, it actually kind of smells fake.
This is so fun, like, all the scents.
I feel like I'm in Bath and Body Works.
Okay, this one's coconut falada.
I think this one's my favorite.
It's called Moonlight Glow.
Like what does that even mean?
I don't know.
Definitely my favorite.
Like that's pretty easy to pick for me.
I've always wanted to try this stimulating scalp massager from Ecotools.
They have one.
I see people using this on like TikTok, and it's supposed to be good to like get blood flow and stimulate blood flow your hair.
I'm sold.
Honestly, it doesn't take much for me.
Oh, i really want a new face mask.
I love like the packaging on these ones, but these ones like really break my skin out like i actually cannot use them.
I've learned my lesson to stay away from those.
They they look cute but they do not.
They hurt my skin, to be honest.
Oh, elf.
Elf is like stepping up their packaging.
Why is this really cute?
Okay, i'm getting distracted.
This is a hygiene video, not a makeup video.
Okay, another brand that I really have been wanting to try is this one.
It's called Bioma.
I see a lot of people talk about it and the packaging is so cute.
Look how pretty their packaging is.
To be honest, that's what draws me in most of the time.
And they have this melting balm cleanser which is supposed to be like an alternative to like makeup remover.
So I think I'm going to try this.
I'm almost out of my micellar water, so I'm going to see how I like this instead.
Another Target brand that I really like, and I think it's kind of new to Target maybe.
Maybe not.
Actually, I don't know.
It's called Versed, and I've tried some of their products before and I like it because it's really good, especially if you have sensitive skin like me.
I really like their stuff. but I feel like I don't need anything from them right now.
Future wise, I've never seen this brand before.
Look at the packaging again, wow.
At this point, I care about the packaging more than the product itself.
Hydrating mist.
I really I think I need to try this because I love facial mists and one that's like less expensive than maybe like the ones at Sephora.
I really want to see if it's as good as those.
Oh, except for it's $25.
That's not.
That's not very inexpensive.
Gonna try this.
I just gasped because i'm so excited i had this on my list because i've been seeing this on tick tock.
I have been having like really bad period symptoms recently, like the worst ever in my life, and i saw these heating patches that they have for ramps.
It's supposed to be up to eight hours, it's a one-time use and there's three of them.
Then you just like stick it on your stomach or you stick it on your underwear and then it like heats your stomach.
So, to be honest, i'm desperate at this point, like i've been struggling so much.
So, As fun as it is to go self-care shopping at Target and buy all of these really fun products, truly the most important part of self-care, at least for me, is therapy.
You guys know I'm passionate about mental health and I'm gonna be talking about that a little bit today with today's sponsor, BetterHelp.
I've been in therapy since I was about 17 and I've been talking about this a lot recently, with being alone and growing up and graduating and going through all these new life stages in your early 20s.
Just how scary it can be and how much I've really appreciated having a therapist to help kind of guide me when I'm not really sure of what decisions I want to make.
I've learned so much about myself through being in therapy and just recognizing certain patterns that I have, recognizing certain behaviors that I exhibit.
So if you're interested in therapy or you're thinking about restarting therapy, BetterHelp is really great, because they connect you with a licensed therapist who is trained to listen and give you helpful, unbiased advice.
All you have to do is go to their website and you can use my link betterhelpcom slash Sydney Serena.

It's really easy because you can do it via messaging, via video call, phone call, whatever's most convenient for you.

You can visit betterhelpcom, slash Sydney Serena or choose my channel name, Sydney Serena during your sign up and BetterHelp will give you 10 off on your first month.
Don't forget to take care of your mental health in any way you can.
It's extremely important and let's get back to the self-care shopping.
Ooh, Salt Air is another brand that was on my list in my notes app, I swear.
I really thought I wrote this in my notes app and then I just went to check for fun and it's like it wasn't even in there.
Why did I even write a list when I just knew I wasn't going to follow it?
I really just wanted to try anything from this brand.
I didn't have anything specific.
This is their Santal Bloom body wash.
And this is the travel size because I'm in like the travel size section.
I feel like that's perfect to try, because that way, if I don't like it, I'm not getting the whole massive bottle of it.
I'm definitely in the right area.
Okay, I wasn't joking when I said that I actually am out of everything.
Like for some reason, I ran out of everything at once, which is actually kind of convenient.
And one of the things that I need is a new face wash, which is in my notes.
We're sticking to the agenda.
Neutrogena is just like one of those brands I've used for so long.
And if I'm ever like unsure of what to get, I know it's a really safe bet.
I have like the most sensitive skin ever, you guys know.
And I love their grapefruit wash.
It just like It smells so good, and it wakes me up in the morning.
But I forget, in New York, everything is locked behind little glass windows.
So I'm gonna need someone to get this out for me.
There she is, locked away.
A couple years ago, I was staying with one of my friends.
She used this brand of mouthwash.
It's called TheraBreath, and I used it in her bathroom.
I told her, okay?
I'm not weird like that.
I loved it.
Ever since then, I've been buying it for myself.
I pretty much only use this brand of mouthwash.
I really wanted to try like a different version, because they have like different flavors, different types, like this one's, invigorating icy mint.
They have one for healthy gums, they have one for like, dry mouth and whitening.
Like the whitening one looks really cool, but i do have extremely sensitive gums and teeth so i'm kind of nervous to stray away from this one.
This is the one that i always get.
It's the mild mint guys.
I really need to get a body wash.
I want to get the ole one, But it is locked.
It is locked in those things again over there and I don't want to ask again for someone to come and lock it.
I just did.
Whenever i'm not sure what body wash to get, i feel like i always end up going back to ole.
It has like a very light scent.
I don't like too strong of a body wash scent because then i feel like it interferes with my perfume.
You guys know i'm kind of weird about that.
Like i don't like to mix scents, even like my deodorant.
I don't want it to like mix or clash with my perfume.
I think we need the hyaluronic one, which is the pink one.
So let me call them on this little thing and not for me.
Yeah, thank you.
I'm in the elevator because I need to go to the bathroom.
I have no flights booked, no trips scheduled.
There's really no reason for me to be and the travel section but i just love the mini versions of things like like the mini version of the mouthwash is so adorable or the mini grapefruit cleanser it's so cute oh okay the same thing but mini is just like better for some reason so do i need anything no i'm gonna stick to my list guys i love trying new body moisturizers it's so much fun right now i'm using the way one it's just like my go-to it smells so nice but it's definitely on the more expensive side i just wanted to show you guys the eos ones are really really nice i have this one at home too my favorites this one the vanilla cashmere honestly all of them are like really nice and that's a pretty big bottle r.i.p i just lost a nail guys So I have extremely fine hair and because of that, my hair gets tangled really easily and I have to use a detangler after the shower or else I just cannot brush through my hair.
It gets knotted like so easily, but it is hard because my hair is so fine.
If I use like a really heavy detangler or leave-in conditioner, sometimes it can make my hair like greasy right away, which also is not good.
So i've been testing out a few different ones.
I really like this brand, kristin s.
I use their shampoo and conditioner sometimes, but i've never tried their leave-in conditioner.
I kind of want to try this one, but then then this one over here also looks good.
This is the brand odell.
Never tried anything from them at all.
They have a leave-in detangling tonic.
Oh, i think i want to try this one.
I'm at the end of my toothpaste right now.
I'm at the point where I'm folding the tube over.
It's like a Rubik's cube.
I'm trying to get the rest of it out.
Basically, I'm just trying to say I need a new toothpaste.
I was about to check out and then I remembered the last thing that I needed.
This was actually on my list, guys.
Dry shampoo because I'm almost out of it.
I'm really picky about my dry shampoos because, since I have dark hair, sometimes if I put it in, you can like see the residue of the dry shampoo, since it's usually white.
I love this one because it's darker and it's like for brunettes, so it comes out brown, so you can't like see it when i put it in my hair.
So i'm gonna get a restock on this because i need this.
I'm going to check out.
I just got my stuff from target.
I'm stopping to get a smoothie quick because i'm so hungry.
That's, that's literally it.
I'm just hungry.
This is the best smoothie place you guys.
It's so good.
Last time I went here last week, they ran out of bananas, so I couldn't get anything.
I needed to come back.
All that shopping just makes me so tired.
I deserve this, so i forgot to do a proper outro again.
I'm really sorry, guys.
One day i'll actually remember.
Thank you so much for watching.
I hope that this was fun.
I actually really love these casual types of just like shopping videos, just like casual vlogs in general.
So let me know in the comments what kind of videos you guys want to see, because i always love hearing.
But thank you, guys for watching.
I love you and i'll see you in my next video.
Bye, guys.
