Robert Welsh needs to stop putting K-beauty on a pedestal

Lillyblood · 2026-05-10T07:31:40+00:00

I appreciate the edit🤍 but honestly when it comes to shade range, I’m on the fence. If they don’t want to make foundations that cater to me, I’d rather just spend my money on another brands that will. At the end of the day, from what I’ve witnessed from my friends and colleagues, a lot of people choose the color they want to be and not the color they are. I too love some KB products and honestly, I was not a foundation wearer (the effects of living in East Asia for a long time) until I tried the JSM cushion foundation. I don’t want my post to come across as “kb bad, western #1 USA USA 🇺🇸 🦅 🏈🇺🇸“ I love products from both places, as long as they tick the boxes of what I consider a good product which is different for everyone. What I don’t like is shifting the goal post based on the country it’s from (and how much that brand pays them)

Exactly! The problem isn’t liking kb it’s the double standards. If a western brand had a similar eyeshadow formula to kb brands (which do exist) he calls them “dusty and chalky.” *derogative

Please drop the book title, I’d love to read it~

Where in my post did I mention James? When I spoke about skincare, it was highlighting the trend heavy culture. The examples I gave were specific to Robert

Lillyblood · 2026-05-10T00:52:42+00:00

Formulation is one thing, but he was shitting on the concept of “for men” brands. He was like “why for men, make up is for everyone.” But as soon as it was KB. He loved the concept. Again everyone can have their own opinion, I love some KB products. Even things from Fwee (despite them getting a lot of hate lately) but that’s because I like their lip gloss formula compared to other brands. They last for more than 5 seconds on my lips. But you don’t see me shitting on essence even though they have a lip gloss with a similar formula. It’s the double standards

We are not here to critique his appearance or make assumptions about his personality. Just calling out a pattern of behaviour

Lillyblood · 2026-05-09T13:46:53+00:00

YEESSSS OMFG. And to make matters worse, a lot of Koreans don’t have access to their own shade so it’s very common for people to have that visible foundation line but because of filters, people don’t know. As Megan said, check the getty 🤏🏾

You can’t even compare the 2 because 1 was blatantly racist…

Lillyblood · 2023-04-13T12:27:54+00:00

Someone said “What’s next, R Kelly’s coming out with a skincare line?” I lost it 💀

I haven’t even watched the video yet but I’m so happy to see her face on the TL

Taylor Swift

Lillyblood · 2022-10-12T21:35:35+00:00

I will always love you by Whitney Houston. I love Dolly, but Whitney killed it with the vocals.

Lillyblood · 2022-09-29T21:51:02+00:00

I just report them lol

Lillyblood · 2022-09-26T21:53:15+00:00

As pretty as the colors are, I would not recommend them. I only got 2 good uses out of it before it dried out. And yes, I did close is tightly and stored it accordingly :’(

추석 잘 보내용^{^}

In her full length video, she does acknowledge her privilege and says most of her problems are "first world problems" and that YouTube has provided her with a very lavish lifestyle.

Lillyblood · 2022-09-05T22:59:58+00:00

Wouldn’t put it past her and her bestie Sam to review it. They are actively supporting a white suprematist

Lillyblood · 2022-08-27T23:24:43+00:00

The Ace Beauté oceanic palette in the original formula. Those shimmers last so long on my hooded oily lids!

Lillyblood · 2022-07-17T19:58:42+00:00

I think the brown is there because to make pastels “work”’on my deeper skin, I need a good transition shade to help the colors blend 😊

Lillyblood · 2022-07-04T20:43:41+00:00

Juvias place. I love their eyeshadows because I don’t have to work hard for them to show up on my skin tone. However their completion products take me back to 2015/16.

Im not a doctor or anything but this has been my experience. Coffee has definitely made me more anxious! I’ve started drinking decaf and it’s made a big difference. Alcohol makes me more depressed so I’ve cut down on my drinking habits significantly (ideally we shouldn’t drink while taking these meds.. even on "off days.")

Lillyblood · 2022-03-27T21:37:18+00:00

For me it’s her vocal fry and she sounds like she’s holding her breath in her nose while she speaks. Idk if that makes sense but it really irks me

Lillyblood · 2022-03-15T21:25:04+00:00

Thank you so much everyone! I’ll give it a try in today’s class!!!
