Victoria Sprigg should be a YouTube superstar and I still can't explain why she isn't. Her massage and voice combination is the only one that comes close to Lita from MassageClips, but Victoria's videos are much longer. This one is in fact two videos of nearly 10 minutes each.
As the original poster mentions, the music nearly ruins this video. It is far too loud throughout most of the video, but I have managed to block it out mentally for the most part.
This video starts with a short interview with the receiver as a means of information by Victoria for what should happen before the facial. It also ends with a brief discussion of aromatherapy practices. I will be ignoring both of these portions and starting at 0:46 of the first video and ending at 8:17 of the second video.
Let's talk a walk through these amazing videos:
0:49 - I already love her accent. Obviously it is British, but I can't quite place it regionally.
1:14 - She mentions "keeping contact with the skin all the time," which I have heard mentioned in other videos. But, it sometimes makes them look awkward in the video.
2:09 - She has already broken contact with the skin, though just for a fraction of a second. And, this after oddly holding her forearm to the forehead to avoid that.
2:10 - One thing I always notice in these videos is that while their actions are generally balanced, you can usually tell what hand is the dominant hand. For Victoria, it is her left. If you notice when she is applying the cleansing cream to the face, her left hand flutters, but her right hand remains largely still.
2:52 - I love the way that Victoria says, "massage" with a harder "g" than we would use in the US. This was when I fell in love.
4:08 - If you pause it here, it looks kind of funny since eyes are closed and her shoulders and neck are not showing at all and Victoria is mostly out of frame. It looks like a dead floating head.
4:21 - I love the way that Victoria massages the chin. She does it several times in the videos and I love it every time.
7:56 - There is no way not to look silly when this is being done to you.
8:11 - Damn! Here comes that music again.
8:33 - There is obviously a monitor off to the side for Victoria. She will look at that several times throughout the video. I would think they would have used a different shot at this point, but what do I know?
0:26 - I love the way that Victoria massages the temples.
0:54 - I love it when people play with my hair. This must feel REALLY good.
1:38 - Another word that I love when Victoria says it: "wonderful"
3:09 - It looks as if the recipient's neck has become rubber as she leans it into Victoria's shoulder to keep it up. Mine would too.
5:15 - The close-up here is very nice. I love the way Victoria spreads the cream about the face.
6:26 - The music is so damn loud that I can barely hear Victoria. I HATE THAT!
7:10 - I am so glad that the music is gone.
7:55 - Mmmmmmm...more hair touching.
8:15 - A finishing close-up of the sunflowers? Sure that makes sense.
Victoria, you are my queen.
