L’Oréal sues Drunk Elephant over patent infringement:
www.cosmeticsbusiness.com/new...
Heyyyyy thennnnnn,
Obviously, as I review and pretty much collect so many different types of products and brands, I get comments suggesting brands I should test, which I love! The comments section is where I discover a lot of new brands. But there are some that i've tried and hated and….probably will never show up on my channel anymore!
So today I thought id share some brands that….ive tried a fair amount of products from but…and...have always been left disappointed with. And also some products I will never try!
And please remember that just because I don’t like these brands products, doesn’t mean they aren’t good or that I thin k they should all burn in hell, its just unfortunately more of their products were a thumbs down rather than a thumbs up for me!

I had a toddler with eczema before doctors really told you what it was and how to treat it properly. I found shea butter in a clinique body butter wth no fragrance, It went on easy but was a super good moisturizer. I woke up one morning and at 3 months he was just a red oozing sore. It was horrible. the doctors said,It will clear up when he turns one," Shit oh dear my little boy was not going to look like that for 9 months. I took him to every doctor under the sun. The only think that worked was that shea butter from Clinique. I was so grateful to that company for that one product. So I guess this is that product I would reccommend James!

Cerave (not sure which one I just know its the red bottle) is the only thing non prescription that TOUCHES my dad's eczema spots. His spots gets bad itchy and painful, almost like shingles, and the rX stuff was like, $200 for a tiny ass tube. So grateful to have found something that helps him.

oh you can educate me on this. my bf asked me a few weeks ago how Tokyo is read because in our mother tongue it's usually written as tokio and read as [to-ki-yo] but i saw transcriptions as [tókjó] so I believe it's read as [tok-yo] in Japanese but as far as I know you can't write that in hiragana nor katakana and it's for sure written in kanji so is the first kanji in the word read as [tok]? haha i hope you understand me, it's so hard for me to explain.

@PettankoXO 3 жыл бұрын

it’s actually broken up as To-Kyo. To as in East and Kyo as in capitol city, So the eastern capitol city Where as Kyoto is just capitol city, because it was the original capitol before changing in 1868 :)

@anakano9273 3 жыл бұрын

rice opener like the other person mentioned, the kanji translates to “Eastern Capital,” and is said “Tokyo”; reading kanji is a little weird in that it requires a contextual understanding that won’t necessarily translate directly. So together 東京 is the kanji for “Tokyo,” but those characters individually alone would not be read as”to” or “kyo.” So for example 東 means “east” or “eastern”; as a noun is “azuma.” You are right on that there isn’t a way to write tok-yo (or to-k-yo) in hiragana, but when you reimagine as to-kyo, then it’s ときょ . Using katakana wouldn’t really make sense for this because Tokyo isn’t a foreign word to Japanese. Hope that all helped clarify!

@MagicalKid 3 жыл бұрын

What about 'matcha' cuz the difference is just one consonant

@anakano9273 3 жыл бұрын

@@MagicalKid Ah good question. One clarification first-- while it seems like there's just that swap between a "T" and an "M," but that's not really how the thinking works in Japanese. "Ta" and "Ma" are two totally different "letters" in hiragana, which we can think of as like a phonetic, syllabic alphabet. There's not really an English equivalent to hiragana that I know of. So まis "ma", while た is "ta." It might make more sense to think of this a different in syllables; in English, changing a little bit in a syllable would make a huge difference! But technicalities aside, your suspicions are on the right track! "Matcha" is an Anglosization. As with "Tatcha," the "TCH" isn't a phonetic combination in Japanese. While many Japanese will recognize and understand "matcha," it is understood as a foreign word. "Maccha" is the closest thing to a Japanese spelling, and the "t" was added for Western audiences for phonetic accuracy.

I've come to the point of realizing the best I can do is consume less, so if I know a brand works for me I'll stick to it rather than experiment and create more waste.

As a scientist, while i am a packaging freak at heart, i cant justify ever buying any of those brands like tatcha and la mer. With that said, ive used almost all tatcha products as far as moisturizers, face washes, and toners go. And theyre just blah at best and irritating at worst. My issue is that these brands take scientific studies, misrepresent them, and fool the public into thinking a certain ingredient applied topicallh will have the same outcome as intraveneous absorptiob. Its deceiving because while blueberries may be great for you ingested, rubbing them on your face will not give you the same antioxidant benefits. The same thing with all this tatcha seaweed crap, its not actually proven to work at the concentrations provided on top of being used topically. Drunk elephant just pisses me off with their anti silicone nonsense when it is literally the most inert ingredient in the world that is so non toxic it is ingested and used internally during surgeries. Silicones are too large to clog your pores PERIOD. Yes cerave is fruit and veg but literally i get people commenting on my skin on a daily basis and ask what facialist i have or what i do. I simply eat healthy and lots of meat and veggies because , yes ladies, you need fat for beautiful skin. I have switched to cerave for 3 years now and that has made all the difference. I have instead transferred my packaging obsession to make up and perfume to make up for the aesthetically displeasing nature of cerave products lol

Astrid Vandevoorde - I sent this question to James under another video, but here in the states we have drug store brands for all the Cerave products (and other brands) that are supposed to be exact dupes, according to a dermatologist on KZfaq. So I’m guessing that you don’t have them? (that was my question to James). 😕 Half the price or better, especially when they’re on sale buy-two-get-one-free, like they were here last week. Maybe you could order online from Walgreens or Walmart if the customs fee is not too high? Walmart brand is “Equate” and Walgreens is just called “Walgreens advanced moisturizing cream” (or lotion, cleanser, etc.) if you are interested.

I used tatcha for a couple months, and while their products were ok... their water creams makes my eye irritates when my skin start getting oily. So I stop using their products. I didn’t really like the feel of it either. I been using shiseido for almost 10 years but they stopped the pureness line for oil control. So their new line isn’t really the same as pureness... so I’m trying to find something that works. Cereva seems to be ok, don’t really like their foaming cleansing, but really like their ultra light day and night cream. I use with my shiseido face wash and softener treatment.

The improvement was so great that I left a really nice comment which they ended up quoting it in a future post caption (which they didn’t tell me they were doing). Recently they started only carrying the mini duo set of bars with this plastic travel case & raised the price so I now have multiple that I never use which is quite wasteful. When I tried messaging them about my disappointment, I got no response. I’ll continue to use the soaps but this comment made me laugh my ass off, Medo! 😂 I do think the founder started with good intentions but now that DE has become successful, their behavior/PR is SO.

I found CeraVe through Hyram and have since bought the eye cream, the moisturizer, the face wash, the micellar water, and the 50 SPF sunscreen. Every single one of these items has this little seal that says they are accepted by the national eczema people, which is honestly why I bought them. My face doesn't get red or inflamed, my skin feels like human skin again instead of snake skin, and I actually love the simplicity of the products. So, to summarize, I use CeraVe because it is the only thing my face doesn't react to. I wish I had known about them years ago.

Thank you for acknowledging how expensive Tatcha is. It is not plastic surgery, it’s skincare. Love your vids, I find you helpful, entertaining and very economical 🤩

I think CeraVe is a great everyday body lotion, and a good cleanser to keep on hand in case of an allergic reaction to product! Pixi on the other hand I agree. It's a bit on the pricier side for a "drug store product", and I don't like how strong all of their products smell. I used to use the rose caviar essence and it irritated my skin (probably because all of the heavy fragrance), but I did very really boujee using it!

This makes me feel better about using the CeraVe moisturizing cream as my moisturizer. I don't really see people talk about it as a moisturizer and the jar doesn't mention it being a facial moisturizer, but my skin seems to like it, so I kinda just kept using it.

I absolutely love tatcha! The rice powder and the violet-c mask are some of my favorite products. And the silk canvas!

For me it was Dermalogica that's over hyped as it is overpriced. I used their medibac range and daily microfoliant as a teen but it as so expensive. SK-II is another, majorly over priced

I love drunk elephant because the things in their ”suspicious six” actually ARE very irritating to my skin. I'm hoping that with more beauty I can get non-irritating skincare for much less! I'm sick of paying through the nose for what I'm NOT getting in the formula. I do LOVE their vitamin c serum and moisturizers.

I love the Tatcha water cream. It keeps me so hydrated. I have combo skin as well, and it really balances me out. I also use one of their deep cleansers and the peach lip mask. They are expensive, but last a long time. I use the water cream twice a day, and it lasts about three months. I buy one item at a time, so I don’t break the bank.
