    Video suggestion: I love this concept and was fun to watch but I also had an idea. You could do two of each hack - one where you follow the instructions EXACTLY as it's shown on the "hack" video with no deviation - so for example with the eggs: No washing out shell, no silicon spray etc. . . And then a second one where you try and make it work as best you can with all your crafting knowledge. Then do a comparison. Xx
  • ...I LOVE how absolutely obvious it was that ALLLL of those fruits were fake, yet they still used a real banana
  • I like how they absolutely hated the banana at first but slowly they gained an emotional connection with it lol
  • I keep having to remind myself that Katelyn is not this tiny little girl, but that Evan is just freaking huge!
  • @Muckb
    I love the way Evan’s mom and dad were talking over each other 😭
  • Thank you editor Katelyn, for putting in the temperatures of the horror egg in celsius as well - really made it a lot easier and interesting for us scandinavians to follow.
  • @krisscoss8907
    Speaking of good resin content, y’all could try to do a 3D painting when you pore thin layers of resin in a bowl and then paint on each layer. I saw a really cool mini koi pond art piece in this style.
  • Katelyn: puts resin chip earrings on No one: Me: oh my god! She reminds me of the best friend from wizards of waverly place and all the weird outfits she would wear yet look fabulous in!!!!
  • @neozakk_
    I’ve definitely painted hollow eggs, just for what it’s worth. Definitely a little weird, but made for a unique, cute craft. And the holes in both sides of the eggs and blow technique is definitely how it worked lol.
  • “And we are not dead!” Congrats you have made a great accomplishment!

    19:41, The moisture levels in lipstick really depends on the ingredients, and the finish. Glossier the finish, the wetter it'll be and the same goes for matte lipstick, just in the opposite way. Ingredients determine how soft it'll be; your lipstick doesn't seem all that glossy, so it (most likely) isn't all that wet. My source is Safiya Nygard, thank you for coming to my TED talk.

    Just a quick shout out, y'all were the first YouTubers I ever really started watching, and lemme tell you, the fact that you ADD YOUR OWN SUBTITLES is so amazing and rare. I have some auditory processing issues, and I love y'all so much for ensuring that your videos have correct (and HILARIOUS) captions makes my day. <3
  • You can actually eat eggs after the expiration date. They generally keep quite well. The main thing is that you test them by dropping them gently into a container of cold water. Make sure it has enough water for them to sink to the bottom and be more than completely covered, like covered by several inches. if it sinks and touches the bottom and stays there, then it is safe to eat. If it floats, then it is not. That is what I have been taught. Of course do your own research. I am not advising that people eat eggs past the expiration date, more stating that it can be done and isn't necessarily as gross as Even and Katlyn thought.
  • I love that they’re willing to break the charger but not the mold 😂 this is the first video I’ve seen of y’all but I’ll definitely now watch more hahaha fun time
  • @tasmyn2701
    I know this is an old video and all but I love that they don’t just show how they do stuff but they also teach everyone as they go… like with explaining about resin thickness affecting the temperature and curing time
  • @KiLLaPeNgUiN198
    The raycon ad is hilarious! I love how self-aware you present yourself and you guys just knock it out of the part with quality, humor, personality, just everything. Its awesome to see 2 amazing content creators in their prime
  • You guys should most definitely make crazy resin-coated earrings on a live stream. That would be so fun!
  • @Ebbie155
    I’m always so surprised knowing people wouldn’t hollow out the eggs on Easter. My family would do that so we could make confetti eggs and smash it over each others heads when we found them
