   <media:description>I'm going to compare Amazon with YouTube. YouTube is very transparent. They don't tell us every little thing, but they are like if there was a scoreboard of or scorecard of transparency on YouTube versus Amazon. 

And I'm just gonna talk about the whole shopping thing because you know YouTube has shopping, right? I'm into YouTube shopping. 

Matter of fact, if you want some videos about that, I have videos here on the channel. YouTube is so much more like YouTube would be here and Amazon would be here. It's just about the transparency and the communication. 

And you know, YouTube has their creator channel and every week we get updates from them. You don't get that from Amazon.

Shout out to @creatorinsider and @youtubecreators for keeping us informed!</media:description>

This keyboard has a built-in phone cradle that holds your mobile phone or a 10 inch tablet. Increase your productivity and get the best of both worlds as you switch back and forth between your device and your computer with one tap.
Add this to the list of great hardware devices from @logitech 

It is the Logitech K585 keyboard. And one of the things I love about it is this extended keyboard. I got to have my number pad over on the side of my keyboard or my life just is not complete. [laughter] I try to type on those other little keyboards without the number pad and I'm just lost. So, I need to have that. But this keyboard I'm bringing to your attention if you need a keyboard because this one you can actually pair it with two separate devices. So I can pair it with even one of my iPhones or um another computer. You know I have the Mac Mini. I could pair it with that and you can switch back and forth. So you only need the one keyboard even if you have the two devices. It's actually battery operated.

You just have to put two AAA batteries in there and uh you can pair it through Bluetooth. So, I absolutely love it.

   <media:description>Did you ever notice that some content creators hold tiny microphones?

It's a prop to get your attention. 

Did it work?

You don't have to put it on your because you know that's a thing especially a lot of YouTubers do that. They just hold the microphone like they they'll do their whole Tik Tok whatever they're just holding the microphone the whole time. I I find that annoying me doing that. It doesn't I I used to get annoyed when I would see people doing it but it doesn't bother me anymore. I'm over it. I'm like, "Okay, it's a thing. It's a It's a trend. I get why they're doing it now." [laughter] But, you know, I just I just think that it it also gets people's attention and that's another reason why people do it. They don't really have to do that. They just do that because people are looking like, "What's that in her hand?" You know? [laughter]

   <media:description>What if I told you that Premium Beauty Products can sometimes have a very affordable price tag.
That is the case with these 4 products that are part of the Premium Beauty Product collection!

Premium beauty products do not need to have premium prices. And today I'm sharing four premium beauty products that you can get at everyday prices right over on Amazon. 

1. Let's get started with the Smashbox full coverage concealer and foundation for an all in one base. $41
2. The next goodie I want to share with you is from Milk Makeup. It's a cooling water jelly tint for a sheer lip and cheek pop. Around $26
3. And for a softer finish, check out the Tatcha Melting Lip Balm. Around $29
4. Last but not least, let's finish everything off with the Tarte Creaseless Setting Powder. $37

So, there you have it. Four premium beauty products at everyday prices so you can stay beautiful without breaking the bank. Just comment the word beauty and I'll send you the links.</media:description>

   <media:description>Install the YouTube Shopping Extension for Chrome if you are active in the program.

because I actually stumbled across the fact that Amazon was now in YouTube shopping and how that happened is because of the Chrome extension. So if you're in the YouTube shopping program, you met all the requirements I talked about earlier. You're in the program, make sure you install that Chrome extension. 
That way, wherever you're shopping, not just on Amazon, but anywhere you're shopping online, click on that extension and it'll tell you if that brand or that product and all the different retailers that offer it in YouTube shopping. It's also going to show you the commission rate. 

So, I was looking at a product. It was I was on Amazon. I was looking at a product, but I expected that it's probably on Walmart, but it came up as Amazon. And that's how I found out. And that's kind of like mid July or early July is when I first found out about it. And I chatted with my friend Larry from @HomeRapidRepair he had access to it as well. And so that's how I was able to put together this idea that oh I can be tagging Amazon products.

I'm getting ready for fall, y'all. I got this faux suede jacket. You can even probably see how soft this fabric is. And these are real pockets. And I paired it today with the stretch flare leg jeans. Yeah, got a little extra there. Show you what it looks like in the back. I'm wearing a 2X and this runs true to size. I'm wearing 3X in the jeans. So, you definitely want to size up. 

Check out the filigree earrings. I know that y'all love the earrings because y'all been snatching them up and my stackable rings. So, thanks so much for watching. Let me know what you think of the outfit. Anything you want to suggest for me to change, maybe a different color, maybe different jewelry, let me know. 

Tap the shopping sticker so you can shop right away. And I'll see you in the next video. Bye.

   <media:description>Be careful with Amazon product tagging on YouTube Shopping. There is more to this strategy but you'll have to wait until the next video

Hey, you just found out that you can tag Amazon products on YouTube shopping. But pump the brakes, friend. I just found out that there is a strategy behind it. You can't just tag every Amazon product. 

By the way, like these earrings? Yeah, I will definitely tag them.  And you know, if you're watching on TV, you can scan a QR code. But hang on, let me tell you about the strategy. 

Always check the commission rate before you even think about tagging on Amazon. Here's the thing because Amazon has this wonderful program called Creator Connections where you can get increased where you can get increased commissions. But your creator connections does not count on YouTube shopping. Huh did you know that? Mhm. Here's something else. 

Amazon also has premium beauty which has the highest commission rate on Amazon that you can possibly have. It's like 10%. Okay? So even if the product isn't in Creator Connections, you would just get your 10% commission off of any sales. However, you'll never know if you sold that product or not, cuz guess what? The same way Amazon is not showing products sold on our earnings report, unless you sell four or more, it's the same way on YouTube. So, you sell stuff, you don't know what you sold.

And mark my words, those folks at Amazon that made that decision to not show the influencers and the associates every single product that they made sales on. It's going to come back to haunt them one day cuz nobody likes to be treated that way. But anyway, love me some YouTube shopping. And like I said, check out the earrings. Oh yeah, and the microphone. I forgot to mention the Hollyland mic. So, see you in the next video. It's your girl, Ms. Ileane. 

Smooches.

   <media:description>Seeing "Frequently Returned Item" on one of the Amazon products you recently made content for is very unsettling.
This is one of the worst feelings you can have as an Amazon Influencer. 
Y'all, I researched this shirt. You see, I have it on. Actually, it's a sweater. And I spent my own money to buy it. On top of that, I recorded the video. I made a couple mistakes, so I had to edit it. Spent my time and all that. Uploaded it to Amazon. This morning I went to check to see if I made it on the carousel and look here. Frequently returned item. Now, why couldn't I say that before I bought it, before I made the video, which I did right away, by the way. And so now that means I'm not going to really earn anything off of this content that I produced. So, just wanted to give you a heads up if that ever happens to you. 

And just so I didn't totally waste my time, these earrings are available as well. So, tap on that little sticker or if you're watching on your TV, check out the QR code.

   <media:description>Try this double sided bath brush - it might meet your expectations too!

I recently picked up this shower brush and I got to be honest, I'm a little disappointed that it started falling apart. I was losing some of the bristles even though it did feel good. So, I replaced it with this one. This one. And actually, it's two-sided. So, one side is for the dry brushing. Y'all know I love my dry brushing. And the other side is just a regular shower brush. But I love how it has these extra grips on the handle that will make it easier for me to when I'm brushing. You know, your hands are all soapy and everything. Anyway, I'm looking forward to this one. So, I'll let you know if it meets my expectations. 

Time for a followup. I promised I would let you know if this double-sided bath brush met with my expectations. So, let's take a look. It's nice and soft, gets really foamy, and it cleans really well. I love the long handle that I can reach my feet, all the areas of my back that I seem to never be able to get without a bath brush. Yes, it met my expectations.</media:description>

Did you know that TikTok has a feature that works like Amazon Lens? I'm assuming you know what Amazon Lens is but if not, it's a feature built into product search that let's you search for matching products with your phone's camera.

   <media:description>If y'all are hot sleepers try this cooling blanket to help you get more sleep during the night.

Quite a few times this cooling blanket got compliments like, "Oh my gosh, I didn't even know they had blankets like this." Yeah, it keeps you cool if you're a hot sleeper. It just covers you and gives you that little hug that you're used to with having a blanket. But even on the hot nights or the nights when your body temperature fluctuates cuz that's going to happen to us at certain stages of life. And this like right now I just feel like oh this is so cool. I could turn the air conditioning down a notch or two.</media:description>
