This is less of a false holy grail and more of a brand upcharge that's driving me crazy. So many actives are available for incredibly affordable prices at beauty supply stores or medical supply stores. But premium brands inflate the prices, create an us versus them scenario, slap on their logo, and get influencers to sell them to a dopamine-seeking public. There's no reason why you should spend $$$ on basic salicylic acid or HOCl mist. Your estheticians aren't!
👏👏👏👏👏 Couldn't have said it better. Really grinds my gears that brands sell mediocre products for inflated prices
Por isso e que gosto de ver as resenhas da Cyoung. Aprendemos que não é preciso ter uma marca supercara para ter bons resultados. Sou novata no skincare , mas acho que estou no caminho certo. A maioria das pessoas nas redes sociais me estressam de tantas mentiras.
@MariaEduarda Concordo! O marketing de influência deixa-me desiludida e cética. Por exemplo, convencer as pessoas de que é necessária uma rotina de dez passos. A CYoung desfez esse mito! Também aprecio o facto de ela, mesmo que pessoalmente não goste de um produto, ser capaz de explicar quais os tipos de pele que ainda assim podem beneficiar dele.
I’ve seen a few influencers who make videos that seem convincing but then I see in the description how the post is sponsored by the product/brand and it makes me doubt EVERYTHING. it doesn’t matter if it is a good product to me, seeing that it’s sponsored makes it hard to know when it’s legitimately good or something the brand is paying for to make up for quality. Could also just be my trust issues 😂 that’s one reason why I was so drawn to CYOUNG. Knowing that she isn’t bought out by sponsorships is such a relief for me, it makes me want to support her channel, her business, and take what she says seriously.
Ninguém que não seja patrocinado desperdiçaria tanto produto. Quando vejo desperdiçar percebo logo que não lhe custou a pagar.
@MariaEduarda Good point!
