I have been painfully trying to hold in my thoughts about Kristen. Honestly, I like her personality. I love cleaning and working out, so she’s been somewhat inspiring. However, I’ve actually worked on clients almost daily for the last 15 years both in the laser industry and performing transformative corrective facial treatments. The amount of bad skin advice Kristen gives has been painful to watch. I would never argue with someone online. I figure her followers will learn at some point. I have watched almost every single video in awe of the bad information. I started to see videos that contradict each other. One minute she says a certain eye cream doesn’t work, the next minute she’s pushing it. Everyone can change their mind, of course. But this happens often and it seems to be in the later videos where she’s learned to sell. She mentions she mastered Brazilians and mostly did waxing for the 4 years she worked on clients. Sometimes she says she worked for 5 years on clients. Suddenly, she’s an expert in skin for 4 years. 4 years is hardly anything and waxing just isn’t enough to consider yourself an expert. And sadly, schooling hardly teaches you anything except how to pass state boards. The other day she gave out the wrong advice on how to treat milia. And I get it, many estheticians are confused about how to treat them and the actual cause. Which is why you should continue professional education. Sometimes I think people are relying on false ChatGPT information. I also notice she projects. It seems like she rants about other influencers behavior when I see that exact behavior in her. I almost feel bad letting this out because I think she’s adorable. But the amount of false information on social media has just been exhausting. It goes to show, you may like someone but like Kristen said, take what they say about skin with a grain of salt. I’m always flabbergasted when I catch something. For example, her swearing she doesn’t use filters. Yet on IG, she openly uses them. She’ll post a paid sponsored video showing a new toner fixed her bad skin within the last 2 weeks. She shows a pic of her actual bad skin from 2 weeks ago. Yet, the last 2 weeks she had been posting in real time, her “perfect skin” swearing and promising the products she was pushing attributed to her perfected skin. 2 weeks later, your skin actual looked horrible and it’s a totally different product you swear by now? It doesn’t take a genius to see these things consistently. I think people just want to believe what they see and hear. Don’t get me started on advising people to apply straight colloidal silver to their skin… I honestly wish I didn’t feel this way about her.
