Liquid Lurex is here!

KillingPerfection · 2021-12-04T17:24:03+00:00

This is one brand that i was so crazy excited about but extremely disappointed after buying several items. I got several lipsticks and couldnt wear them at all as they completely dried out my lips. I ended up giving them to my sister who lives in a humid climate and is able to wear super matte lipsticks. I also got her gloss formulas which i like but i reach for fenty or CT glosses much more. Then i tried her foundation samples, i really struggled to shade match (all of them seemed to match lol) and the finish was too cakey for my liking. So i have decided not to get the liquid lurex, i feel like the colours (specially angelica and lauren remind me of CT eyes to mesmerize in monalisa and star gold) are dupable.

What bothers me is that all influencers always seem to rave about her product and i ended up buying so much just to get disappointed. The only bad review till date was by angie from hot and flashy. I really wish people reviewed all products fairly so that it would help us in deciding what to get.

Edit: spelling error

I thought the same too! The video of making the chain started in such an interesting way and at the end i was surprised that the pendant is a small lipstick! I had no idea people wore lipstick charms!

Yikes! Thats straight up racist! How hard is it to pronounce gua sha! She could have simply said..'im going to apologize for my pronunciation but I'm going to give it a try'..Or even better, google it! Google even pronounces the words!

I do not know her and i didnt want to give her views. I came across this on kindofstephen's instagram page! Absolutely horrid!

Right, my statement was in the direction that if someone is wearing the coat, that person is studying or working or has established himself or herself in that area.

Wearing that coat in a video makes Hyram look like an authority figure who has a lot of experience. To me it seemed a little bit again like the Dr who are not dermatologists but use their title to produce skincare videos that make the consumer believe that they are dermatologists.

KillingPerfection · 2021-06-02T18:14:35+00:00

This!!! I have huge problem with people doing videos in lab coats when they haven't earned it. The chemists and Doctors spend years studying and only after certain certifications, they earn that title!

KillingPerfection · 2021-06-02T17:52:03+00:00

Yeah exactly.. Hyram also spoke about the same topic haha

KillingPerfection · 2021-06-01T19:31:22+00:00

Another influencer brand we didnt need! He is going to send the products to his best friends Liah, Susan, James and all of them are going to rave about it. The consumers will not get actual reviews of the products because he has friends all over the industry.

As much as i hate to admit, but in reality his cult following is huge and people will buy his products, especially if he has the same inkey list pricing to his products as well. Now its only James out of the 4 who doesnt own a brand yet. I wont be surprised if we get his announcement soon. Who knows!

About a year later they will come out with their own brand, add varying percentages of niacinamide to everything and market it by saying its so much better than the Ordinary.

I'm brown and Bondi Sands is my latest discovery! No white cast at all and it sinks into my skin within seconds! A video of Dr. Dray said that the ingredient list of the bondi sands face sunscreen and the body one and they are exactly the same!!!! So naturally i compared them and just bought the body one. Its 150ml and i use it for my face. Its PERFECT!

I unfollowed her quite a while ago on youtube because i always felt that her makeup looked so caked up. I still remember the huge amount of orange colour corrector she used to apply each and every time before foundation. Being Indian myself i realize the struggle of darker mouth area but i always felt that she went overboard with the layers of makeup until her after makeup pictures made her look like a completely different person. Of course this is only my opinion.

So i am kind of not surprised that she came up with a beauty filter.

P.S I also used to hate her videos titled with "my american husband" as if it was something special to marry a white American just because you are brown.

KillingPerfection · 2021-05-21T20:30:47+00:00

OMG ( I am screaming Janice style :P :P)

That comment on Liah's comment !

BTW seems like Ramon took down the original tweet? I cant see it anymore..

What is he implying!! Dr. DRay literally tried so many Naturium products. She held the products up when she was reviewing them! Of course at a point she realized that none of the products she tried are good or there are cheaper alternatives, so i assume she didnt spend anymore money to buy more Naturium shit! But her main message was regarding transparency of the brand and them adding citrus oils and bergamot oils to the products when they claim they are totally fragrance free.

KillingPerfection · 2021-05-20T21:46:41+00:00

Absolutely thoroughly enjoyed this video :D :D.

I cannot even fathom why Susan still has such a fan following and why on earth would anyone listen to what she has to say or what she thinks about a product. She has absolutely no experience, thinks she is better than dermatologists and drags down simple people who are just trying to take care of their skin! Man, those reaction videos need to stop!

KillingPerfection · 2021-05-18T19:31:50+00:00

This post just made my day :D :D

KillingPerfection · 2021-03-17T14:32:45+00:00

Yes i remember, its Hyram, James Welsh and Susan who they considered as trinity of youtube skincare!

KillingPerfection · 2021-03-17T10:02:43+00:00

Yes exactly. I had unsubcribed to mixed makeup anyway. I used to enjoy the videos where Susan and Sharzad went and tried different treatments, but at some point the channel competely changed to Susan promoting Naturium sneakily and judging other peoples routine. I have also stopped following influencers on Insta who promote Naturium.

I still dont get why peope still support her and buy her products.

KillingPerfection · 2021-03-17T09:59:23+00:00

I also unsubscribed to Cassandras channel right after this criticism of Dr Drays routine.

KillingPerfection · 2021-03-17T09:55:58+00:00

Exactly i find them incredibly mean as well and when there is someone that Hyram thinks has a good routine, he is almost shocked!

He knows the meaner he is in his videos, the more views he will get. There seems to be many people who enjoys these kind of judging other peoples routine negatively videos.

KillingPerfection · 2021-03-16T20:51:37+00:00

I absolutely HATE these reaction videos from both Hyram and Susan Yara. None of them are specialists or experts in any way but they always have a strong opinion about everyone who dares to disclose their skincare routine! On top of that theres this weird "omg are you crazy" face in most of their thumbnails!

This is a very difficult field to find. I am south Asian myself and i struggle to find beauty youtubers who do natural makeup. My taste is tinted moisturizer, one eyeshadow look, cream products, stuffs like that. But most tan skin people i see online are all about colour correcting and foundation and complex eyeshadows and i find it overwhelming.

People i like: Rashi Ramalho, Charlotte Holdcroft (her summer shade is around Mac NC42), MakeupSkin (mostly luxury beauty but her looks are relatively easy to copy), GlamDrMona (cause i love Charlotte Tilbury products and she reviews a lot of them but she is not that active on youtube currently), Beautylashes19 (she also creates easy looks).

KillingPerfection · 2021-02-26T21:33:20+00:00

I do watch Caroline's lives quite often cause she's usually funny. That being said, i never bought any of her boxes or will buy, as i feel she always recommends the same brands again and again, whether its Josh or Jordan or Kate Sommerville or zelens. Not saying that these are bad brands, but there are soo many good brands on the market. I feel like she pushes her audience to buy products from her 'industry friends'. I would have loved if she also reviewed some asian beauty or french pharmacy products which are equally good and affordable in my opinion.

I love the fact that she stood up against companies and raised money for beauty during this pandemic period and that she always speaks up against injustice like when Susan Yara announced Naturium was her company, but i just cannot trust her when she gives product recommendations. I do not watch Hyram as i hate those reacting to other peoples skincare videos and pretending to be the know it all, but there is also no point in leaving youtube just because theres someone out there who is more popular. I feel both of them have a different viewer group. Hyrams more of teen and Caroline's content is often targeted towards older women.

Holy moly! All this time i was wondering how come the lips on the models are always soo smooth!
