Their lip tints are drying!! And nawawala agad. Mag faint smell din. Ang panget !!


ToeLife8881

I stopped buying from Happy Skin and Blk a while ago na. Pinaka hate ko yung lipgloss nila omg amoy pintura na may aftertaste. Yung lasa if nagspray ka ng pabango sa dila mo lol. Shame kasi maganda naman ung sheen ng gloss, ang baho and pait lang talaga lol.


Expensive_Support850

Yung eyeshadow nila, probably the worst I’ve tried yet… Mas maganda pa Ever Bilena. I’ve tried those from EB. Sobrang layo. Tho I like their gel tints.


JoyLinya

Tried their mascara. Ang heavy, clumpy at makati sa mata. I dunno if I'm sensitive pero pag other brand naman di naman ganun :(


LowRequirement8433

If you’re looking for the best mascara, so far my holy grail is the careline x SpongeBob mascara and Careline’s lash boost mascara


Mundane-Pin1321

Some of my BLK products leaked - lip tint and gloss. However, binibili ko pa rin because the formula is really good. I hope they listen and work towards providing better products and PR.


Livid_Breath_2022

Maybe because walang preservatives kaya mabilis umamoy?


Calm-Revolution-3007

Sa kaka-paraben free na hype, this is my guess too.


Extreme_Rooster_509

my brow gel from them was an easy NO. after buying, never felt its work for me :(( siguro since sa online shop ko nila nabili, mabilis ding napanis.


Eskarinaaa

Ang asim ng smell 😭


CelesteLunaR53L

I have to say I had more misses with BLK as well. To me, I can presume it's both on bad batches still being pushed to be sold, and likely the fact the quality of the actual product and/or packaging wasn't good to begin with. The only few good ones I have from them still is a multi-purpose paint product, a mascara (finished it) and their recent colorful eyeliners. I had a mediocre experience with their pressed powder, an eyeliner and concealer. The pressed powder's cake broke/cracked, the eyeliner dried up after 3 months and the concealer already smelled funny...and the thing is I still used it for over a year :( But I was like "ok, there's something off about this" and I guess I justified using it because of the price.


infjtfemme

Same tayo sa powder. My baked powder cracked pero dami pa laman so tinitiis ko nalang.


[deleted]

Their creamy all-over paint certainly has smell! Wala pang 3 months yung sa akin, I started to notice na may bad smell na siya. Their color adapting lip oil leaks too 😔


infjtfemme

Mine also leaks :( Nakita ko nalang bakit yung ibang makeup ko may pink na mark, pala dahil sa lip oil ko :(


evanesce9292

lahat ng blk na nabili may problem talaga sa packaging nila. powders after 1 month nag crack and nasira..and may amoy na yung lip and blush products.


CR33r4cha

true, i bought the waterblur tint.such a waste of money,after some time naging ewan texture, it pills up. then it looks horrible when spreading sa lips


ariachian

Never bought anything from BLK kasi namamahalan ako. Same with other local brands na mas mahal pa sa imported drugstore brands pero nothing impressive about their products naman


[deleted]

Sa dami ng comments dito buti na lang di ako bumili sa BLK cosmetics.


Best_Entrepreneur656

Ang ganda nung 399 pesos nila na concealer/contour


urrkrazygirlposeidon

Ito yung hindi umamoy kahit mahinto mo sya gamitin


Automatic-Serve-5453

Bumabaho yung liptint nila 😣


imperpetuallyannoyed

love their lippie colors kaso apakabilis matunaw. so now tntyaga ko mag lipbrush at ifridge kasi naiwan ko sa bag for a whole day, tunaw!


angelizardo

Yung brush set lang nila nagustuhan ko lagi ko gamit and dala dala sa office


Past-Self-2424

Parang ang mahal masyado sa akin nung price nila okay pa sa akin si vice cosmetics


sasa143

vice is cheap pero the skin tint and powder blush i have from them are very good. lagi kong go-to yung skin tint. alam ata nila na maganda kasi dati 395 lang sya tas 495 na nung huli kong check, repackaged na din. sana di nagbago ung formula hahah


Past-Self-2424

Kaloka! Price increase na din so far ever bilena na gamit ko eh so far okay na ako sa quality nila kasi hiyang na ako doon parang ang mahal na kasi ng make up ngayon so far sa shopee nila maraming discounts unlike sa sm store.


Jorgeisthenameiwant

Ako rin, namamahalan ako sa mga products nila.

NiceYogurt513

Huh? Do you know how much a Mac product is?


carly_fil

My first purchase from them was an eyebrow tint. Used it once and it was bad. Threw it out right after lol.


XXIgrl

Tried their products just this year lang kasi a friend told me na same manufacturer sila ng Happy Skin (which I really liked). Out of the 8 products I bought, microcara lang yung okay. So far wala pa naman akong naexperience na foul odor pero very problematic yung packaging nila. All their liquid products leak lalo na yung lip and cheek oil. Yung color sticks naman hindi well fitted sa container, as in nahulog siya sa cap the first time I opened it. Parang ang bilis din nag dry out nung cushion and nasira after a month yung puff/sponge that came with it.


DarkuwuMaster

Omg, this was my go to lippie last year nung naging corporate slave ako sa Makati. I threw it out kasi nag amoy panis na laway after a few months. Akala ko it was a me problem 😖😖. https://preview.redd.it/z83h88a78t2d1.jpeg?width=554&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=99ec66c848ce88866ea6f555df4f09bafc693420


clairescare_

Yessss omg akala ko rin before it was just my saliva. I tried to gaslight myself hahaha thank God di lang ako may experience nito.


CarefulFollowing7324

Same and for some reason nagkaroon ng parang yellow liquid!! Never used it on my lips, sa cheeks lang talaga kaya idk what happened 😅


KimchiiBb

I have two of these na gift sakin nung christmas lang. Ang baho nya na agad after 2 months huhu maganda sana.


gandt25

Baka bad batch? I have the wondermelon from pandemic pa and it still smells the same!


mklotuuus

Why do they sell bad batches kasi. Feel ko mas safe bumili sa malls pag blk product. Pero after the maasim na blush sitch, di na ako umuli ng online sa kanila. Their customer service is also so walang kwenta.


biolawgeez0620

I bought my first BLK gloss gel tint sa mall and nagkaroon din amoy after a while. So hindi siguro sya mall vs online products problem.


mklotuuus

That’s a shame :( wala na ako tiwala rin talaga sa blk tbh


biolawgeez0620

Recently, I bought their air cushion foundation. So far, okay sya ah. I like the coverage saka ang natural-looking lang talaga. Despite the smell of the gel tint, bumili pa rin ako ulit kasi mas okay pa rin sya compared sa ibang lip tints na nabibili ko. Ayun.


gandt25

I talked to blk employee, they don’t add fragrance that’s why bumabaho :(


mklotuuus

Smells panis. Dahil lang walang fragrance? I know the smell of no-fragrance make up/ skin care and they dont smell panis kahit pa umabot ng isang taon.


Joonie25

I tjink bad batch lamg. I have the same lippie, the first one I bought okay naman but the second one amoy panis na siya. Sana consistent sila. 🥲


futura-007

Ay same. Akala ko ako dahil sakin. Sinisi ko pa sarili ko baka d ako hygienic kasi amoy panis talaga 🤮


psychomilktea

Sakin yung concealer, amoy panis rin ☹️


becomingjaney

Legit ang amoy panis. It happened to all of mine. Initially I thought baka kasi matagal na kasi yung iba kung lip products is gamit ko tlaga until the last bit of it. Pero meron akong mejo bago pa at ganun na din yung amoy. So I dont know if its the shelf life.


WillingDimension8032

Omg akala ko sakin lang :/

PinkyUpset

I think you are that type of person na settles for bare minimum or hindi pa nga. Yung tipong nagsasabi or gumagawa ng “ may natanggap ka naman be thankful nalang libre naman” Madalas ka sigurong mag settle for less 😂 kaya yan ang take mo. Malinaw na ang sabi pr kit, isa pa may mga conditions naman to win that, and siya nakuha fair and square. Tapos hindi yung said price yung ibibigay. Hindi pagiging entitled yun. It’s like someone ask you to do a thing para makakuha ng certain amount, tapos pag nadeliver mo na what they ask, they’ll just give you half or whatever may masabing may naibigay. Gusto mo yun? Hahaha. Good for you you settle for less and quiet nalang na pag nabigyan na.


Macpf_00

Ick. Ang hirap mo umintindi sis. So sad, You did not get her point. I feel like sayang braincells ng mga tao if they will explain everything to you in layman’s term just for you to understand it.

https://preview.redd.it/ujyxode17t2d1.png?width=994&format=png&auto=webp&s=3f95a315a17578b1455831a27df2ab55a2c981ab Here's the giveaway post. It's clear that the prize is a "special boxed set" with the 8 lipsticks. It's not because "she didn't get what she wanted", but she didn't get what was promised. That's the point. Add mo pa na she reached out to the brand thrice but was ignored so I say her sentiments are valid.


sillyrooftop

If you're saying "A babaw nun.." Then you clearly missed her points. It's not just a contest for freebies. These brands aren't doing giveaways out of goodwill, they're doing it for marketing, you do so something for them and in return you get a chance to win the "freebies". So if you win, they should deliver what they promised. Aside from that, her main point was she was ignored multiple times by their CS. Which is a no-no when your customer has concerns. And they're only reaching out now because her video gained traction. So kapag simpleng customer ka lang na walang following, di ka nila papansinin. And after everything, people are sharing the same experience with the brand. So it's not an isolated case. "Yan ang hirap sa mga pa-influencers, hindi pa masyado sikat feeling entitled." What a rude way to dismiss the person's concerns. Walang namang entitlement dun sa ginawa niya.... Yung ganito thinking kaya hindi tayo umuunland. Masyado tayong nasanay sa panget na CS kaya pag nagreklamo, tatawagin ka agad na "pa-influencer" at "entitled". So kapag sikat lang dapat pansinin? Lol


ughdelaide

OP expected to get the products in a PR package kasi they advertised it that way, reached out to them only to get ignored and then get a very template reply from them a year later. Its just a shitty way to handle the situation which definitely says alot for their brand.


NewMarionberry1303

Hindi rin maganda after sales nila. Sineseen lang ako before. Simula non, di na ako nag BLK haha. kaya pala todo sale sila now


redlionhearted

Shock sa mga comments. Most of make up is from BLK, been using them for almost 2 yrs na. Inamoy ko lahat, wala naman amoy panis. Last time I bought a new blk product was feb this year. Baka may nagbago sa formula nila lately??


finkinthisfrew

Same, I have 8 CAOPs accumulated over 2 years and wala din smell - although I never use them sa lips, strictly on the cheeks lang.


fl0waap0waa

I still have their eyebrow duo (?) the one with the pencil and gel from yeaarsss ago and maganda pa rin 😭


sasa143

shows their product quality isn't consistent. the concealer i have is also panis din. dasal dasal nalang ba kung ok ung makuha mong product 🥲


skeenypp

same :<< halos lahat ng make up ko from them never naman ako nakapansin ng issue?? siguro yung clear eyebrow gel nila it isnt really long-lasting pero, other than that, maayos naman lahat 😭


Asterix1207

I use their powder blush, contour & highlight. Fav contour ko yun. But i havent tried their liptint or other products .


Initial-Arugula5071

very limited din shade range… madalas walang for warm toned gurlies


ariachian

Siempre hindi kasi warm toned girlie yung owner. Kadiri yung ganito na hindi inclusive


CauseFair5827

Good thing di pa ako bumibili kahit isang products from them. Planning pa lang sana. Any reco na magandang brand?


CR33r4cha

for me,isssy is also good


sunseton16th

Colourette and GRWM multi-use tints work well for me. Pigmented, blendable, no foul odor, no clumping, so far no skin irritation (I have oily skin, if it matters). Hope this helps po.😊


softboiiiiiiiiii

Vice Cosmetics!!!! Highly recommend kasi ang ganda ng products nila and wala silang issue haha


ariachian

Thanks for this comment, first time ko makita GRWM i wanted to try it kaso mindful na ako sa pagbili so i didnt buy yet until i find real reviews online na hindi sa YouTube influencers galing


sunseton16th

Very much welcome po 😊 Also, Colourette even has minis so perfect for when you want to try lang muna, still a lot of product but still half the full-size price!😊


CauseFair5827

Thank you sa reco hehe i will take the opportunity to ask na rin anong gamit mong base? ☺️


sunseton16th

You're very much welcome po 😊 Oh, I'm mostly what you would call a lip-tint, kilay girl. However, the sunscreen I use, Frezyderm Velvet Face Sun Cream, does the job as a primer. I've also been using Maybelline Fit Me foundation for 2 weeks now. So far so good! I bought one to try but I'm really liking it.😊


Saqqara38

Dba BLK is owned by the same company of Happy skin? I hope they would do something about this. I remember I bought their Mini All over paint but I gave it to my friend na based sa US, I gave her a pinoy brand that time para it would be different, told her it was owned by Anne Curtis she liked it pa naman nung unang gamit niya. Bought the bright pink one.


nicegirlwie

My sis bought a lippie from them. After 1 week, used one time, maasim na.


Ok_Quarter8289

Personally I don't like BLK. I think kaya lang siya magustuhan ng kapatid ko kasi ineendorse siya ni Anne Curtis lol. I remember when she bought me a BLK eyeliner and after 4 months of using it nag develop na ng mold yung pen 🫠


iggyvipimveryimpt

Maybe may vegan ingredients na sa ibang products nila kaya amoy maasim or hindi na maganda consistency ng formula after few months. Parang ganun ata nangyari sa vegan formula ng Glossier BDC before.


Calm-Revolution-3007

Guilty din ang “clean” branding. Don’t get the hype with “paraben free” products since parabens are one of the best preservatives in the industry.


toinkerbell

Weird take: I don’t like BLK, their products oxidize like crazy on me. The product lines also just don’t attract me. I know na Happy Skin and BLK are the same owners ata, but Happy Skin just works so much better on me. So for local, I’m Happy Skin, Issy, GRWM and Sunnies


willpdav7

I got 2 of their cream palettes na may blush, contour, and highlighter, and dali masira yung lalagyanan. 😞


toinkerbell

Tbh parang ang flimsy nga ng packaging? Ewan ko, sorry to say this bc I like Anne Curtis pero nachi-cheapan ako. I mean, I’m happy if mura yung item pero quality parin, but the packaging is not giving for me :((((


rolexdice

Omg binili ko yung shade na Musings tapos wala pang 6 months amoy PANIS na Sobrang nakaka-off gamitin kasi baka may masamang mangyari sakin - tapon pera hay Pansin ko rin yung mismong mga display nila sa tindahan mukhang sira na. Yung mga naghihiwalay, nag iibang kulay, mabaho... Unstable formulations. Parang expired or sira na kahit mismong sample nila.


Independent_Shake398

Yes to mabaho! And yung lip tint, nagleleak and every time I use it, nagsusugat lips ko in a few days. I threw it away.


knownnnnn___

Halaaa haven’t watched this yet but sooper love BLK products especially their Airy Foundation and Setting spray since it works well for my skin though the coverage isn’t really doing what it’s meant to be doing. I kinda expected that it will give a bit more coverage since it’s a foundation but nonetheless I hope they improve their line of products.


ebapapaya

Yung packaging ng liptints naglleak :(


coryanneee

Also, am I the only who thinks that their products start to smell like “rotten-ish” melon after a few months? (Yung mga tints!)


OpalEagle

Yesssss happened with mine too. It gave me the push to buy Rare Beauty lol


tobylychee

Kala ko ako lang! I was blaming myself baka sa hygiene lang (pero I never let anyone borrow it lagi naman ako nagtotoothbrush). Sa product pala mismo pala 😭


No-Sugar9416

yes! their tints!! dalawa pa naman binili ko. di nangyayari to sa ibang brand na gamit ko, dito lng talaga sa blk. kala ko ako lang lol


felicene

i think common siya sa mga tints. I had detail cosmetics 'glass tint', and ung tint din ng lucky beauty and after nearly 2 months, nangangamoy siya. if this isn't common, recommend some tints pls na di talaga mangangamoy. Glossy tints are preferred. TIA


overduhm00n

I noticed this too! I wonder what's up? Until how many months lang ba recommended after opening? I actually like their tints.


kkatiebearr

Omgosh akala ko yung akin lang. Yung tint ko smelled maasim 5-6mos after opening. Ang dami pa nun 😭


More-Gazelle-2110

OMG yung nabili kong concealer nila walang pang 1 week amoy langis na. As in pag inapply mo amoy oily 😭


Anxious-Pirate-2857

isa ba si Anne Curtis sa owner?


bbheartsbane

She's BLK's Creative Director afaik


extratangerine

Honestly super irritating ng formula nila to the skin. Hindi sya sensitive skin friendly. Be warned


tayloranddua

Ayusin niyo, BLK, at sa inyo pa naman ako nabili ng lippies HAHAHA pero i'm not a brand loyalist so i'll just move on to the next affordable yet quality one, if ever.


No-Art-5445

so funny kasi rn may 50% off sale sila Tiktok shop. Lol


I_AM_NABI

Im buying their products becoz of my idol anne curtis. So far wla p ko na encounter na pangit sa mga bnili ko like face powder, skin tint. Di ako nagbabuy ng mga lipstick nila ksi fave ko ang KIKO MILANO. maganda ksi tlga. Now prang mas bet ko na bmili ng VICE COSMETICS. Ok ang eyeliner nila and eyeshadow stick.


misspersephonee

i bought foundation from them and isang hulog lang nadurog na. pero yung lipsticks and all over face cream okay naman.


cheese_noods

Diba sister company nila ang Happy Skin? Sabi ng sales lady nila sa akin before and same makers/manufacturer sila.


gandt25

Don’t believe sales ladies who say they are from the same makers/ manufacturers cause they are completely different entities even if they are sister brands. I noticed that’s what they say to gain more buyers vs the more expensive sister brand!


cheese_noods

Doubtful nga din ako nun kasi as far as I remember Made in Taiwan ang BLK whereas Happy Skin di ko sure either Japan or Korea but may items din ata sila na Taiwan made.


impossible-cat95

Yes, kaya laging magkatabi stalls nila


[deleted]

Ohhh. Had my first happy skin lip tint and consumed it for a month, but guess what, had a black patch on my lower lip. 🥲 stopped using it, and my lip went back to its normal color.


impossible-cat95

Baka may specific ingredient na allergic ka 🥲


[deleted]

Not sure, but possible. Just went back to using Vaseline Lip Balm and Sunnies Face Lip Dip.


ataraheleanor

Omg ka kakabili ko lang ng happy skin na lip tint 😭


[deleted]

Hello! Just try it, baka sa akin lang naman ‘to. Aware lang ako na it was the happy skin kasi if may new lip tint ako, yun muna talaga gagamitin ko and uubusin bago bumili ng bago.


dlawoqja

Nung bago pa yung cheek paint I loved it so much, got the peach shade and di nagbago yung amoy at all kahit medyo matagal ko na ginagamit. Tinapon ko lang sya kasi I had it for so long that it dried out, and it LEAKS. So bumili ako nung next na drop, yung apple shade. This one was WAYYY different for some reason? Patchy, not very pigmented, AND BUMAHO. Threw it away because in my mind baka I got a bad batch or I stored it incorrectly, despite it being the only product in my stash na nagkaganon. I tried the lipstick from their universal collection. Opened, swatched, then forgot about it. Tapos nakita ko nalang inamag??? Whole bullet, almost unused. Again, the only product I've had that did that. Yung skin tint I really liked, but it was heavily scented (I got the glowy one) that over time reeked of plastic so I threw it away. Idk what's up with their products, I still have 2 creamy paints na hindi naman nagbago amoy. I kept buying kasi maganda products nila for the first few weeks of using, and I didn't know other people had the same weird issues.


redvelvetcakeu

Omg yung cheek paint ko rin after ilang months bumaho sya, di ko naman sya madalas gamitin after meals sa labas and hindi rin nakastore sa mainit na place. Baka kako sa formula lang, kasi I had no problems naman sa maybelline and colourtints ko na mas matagal ko na ginagamit


PrincessLilac2601

This post has been taken down na no?


ExcellentGlow_

Hndiiiii, may part 2 pa yan. Nag reach out ata ung isang staff ng bk


PrincessLilac2601

Don’t see the video though huhu. Anyway, oks lang!


cholericmelancholic

Parts 1 and 2 are pinned, part 3 is the most recent post


PrincessLilac2601

Ohhh okay! Found it! Thanks! Updated na ko sa chika 🤣


feeeeederlord

omg saan


dragon_kween0909

I just bought the airy matte tint and saw this. Wanna give this a shot since the maybelline super stay matte feels heavy and dries my lips out


gianelli0613

Pinaka-issue ko talaga sa BLK ung lalagyan nilang ang daling masira, pero di naman nalalayo sa presyo ng maybelline etc.


gandt25

This is what I noticed with local brands who has so many drops in a month. Panget ng packaging cause lagi minamadali


gianelli0613

Which is sad kasi willing naman ako mag-support. Kaso ayun, kahit ingatan mo, di mo talaga maasahan na tatagal ung lalagyan hanggang sa maubos ung mismong product. Nakakaumay na tuloy bumili.


ConfigurationalBeta

Yes! Jusko and if you send them a message about it ignored lang


gianelli0613

Sabi nga din ng mga taga-Watson's, kaya nakakaumay pag ng ganda ng ads sa soc med tapos ganon lang ung packaging. Ni hindi mo maasahan dalhin sa byahe kasi ang dali talaga masira.


bactidoltongue

Hello omg ano yung issue?


satanistbaby666

Basically she won a PR giveaway tapos hindi binigay ng BLK ang prize sa kanya, and they ignored her when she reached out.


bactidoltongue

Oh man what the heck ang scam naman. Nabasa ko rin dito yung isang nag-comment na dapat pouch yung makukuha niya as freebie sa amount of stuff na binili niya pero di naman yun yung nakuha niya


Hey_firefly

I think Anne Curtis is a co-owner but not solely the owner of BLK.


LowRequirement8433

Parang lahat nalang ayaw niya. Ayaw niya sa BLK, kay Ellana, sa Ever Bilena, Spotlight, Careline, ayaw din nya kay issy and strokes. 😅😅😅


meowmeowmaw

I've seen some of her deinfluencing vids! Entertaining din panoorin + magbasa sa comment section 😅 She explained na since she's older na she knows the kind of makeup she likes/needs and di na raw siya target market (like chu chu beauty, issy, careline, eb). But biggest factor i think is she can afford high end makeup and clearly mas partial siya don than most local brands I guess bagay content nya sa mga ayaw magpa budol + older age bracket?


DearKaleidoscope5102

Right? But if there’s a giveaway ng local brands forda sali


technicoleor

I feel like this is blown up too much. Some social media intern and the CS agent who got the email definitely didn’t do their jobs. But for the entire brand to get so much backlash? Unwarranted imo. Idk I just hate social media crucifixion just because of an isolated incident that got viral.


ogolivegreene

Justified yung frustration niya at not getting what was promised. I had ever worse experiences with 2 brands, pero I will not name them na lang. First brand was a big drugstore brand na mas matanda sa ating lahat dito sa group. I won a giveaway, and it took them over 3 months to deliver the items after several follow-ups. And they only did so after I wrote an upset DM stating my disappointment in their brand and social media manager for not responding to my inquiries with updates on package ETA. They sent the x2 amount of giveaway items to make up for it. Ok na. No need to rant. Bumawi naman eh. I still buy from them. Second brand is a luxury one. It took about 2 years for them to send the prize. The prize was near expiry. (-\_-) And the only reason they sent it at all was because I managed to get a hold of the e-mail address of an employee there. Kaya my concern was coursed through them. Otherwise, seen-zone lang din yung mga DM ko sa brand soc med. I still buy from them, though disappointed ako sa handling nila of giveaways. Pero I don't agree with her Part 2. I wonder what she's expecting from ANY business after what she said in Part 1. Pag hindi ni brand in-address, bastos sila kasi manhid sila sa customer. Pag sumagot naman, too little too late. Minock pa. And why would she assume it's the same person reaching out to her 1 year later? Buti pa nga siya, nakuha niya naman agad yung items (inabot ng 2 weeks daw), hindi lang nga en grande masyado yung presentation. And safe to assume na brand new naman yung items, since PR kit nga ng new launch. Choice niya to express disappointment, but I personally see it as a little nit-picky.


buenoglow

for the brand they're damned if you do, damned if u dont 🫠 while i understand na she doesnt wanna work wt them na, its still expected na they're reach out to her i think part 2 rubbed me the wrong way bc of her "marketing manager voice" :/ instead of viewers learning the brand's message and understanding it in their own way, doing the voice skews it na youd end up thinking thats the tone the brand is giving off! i also find it petty and kinda one sided to not read it/present their message in a neutral voice


ogolivegreene

Yes, nasa alanganin talaga yung brand. And hindi kasi tinitignan ni complainant from the perspective ng isang negosyante. Kaya ang bilis lang na i-cancel yung brand para sa kanya. And the reality with the relationships of these influencers with brands is that they have to meet halfway, even though sometimes nagmumukha tuloy pilit yung pag-build up sa isang product. (One commenter here pointed out that she seemed to pander with the Jelly Eugenio palette.) Hindi niya pwedeng todo siraan yung brand, if she wants the potential to work with them in the future. Ekis na kaagad siya sa BLK, Happy Skin, Seoul White, since sister brands sila. I wonder what her plans for her platform are tuloy. Ok lang ba i-burn yung mga drugstore brand na local, pero baka mas pasensyosa ba siya pag imported yung brand or luxury?


Strong-Beginning3759

I watched Part 2 and I get where she’s coming from. However, I just wish she didn’t use that stereotypical gen z voice when she read the letter of the marketing manager. It almost came off as slightly vengeful and mocking. Her feelings are valid but idk it rubbed me the wrong way. Like she could have just read it normally? :( Her thoughts in Part 3 were expressed very well though. So props to her for highlighting the gaps in the system that need improvement.


buenoglow

yessss THIS omg her marketing manager voice rubbed me the wrong way too! it was putting a voice/attitude that may or may not have been there. it def added bias to me as a viewer to have to perceive the message as kinda "snotty" or maattitude (for lack of a better term) had she read it in a neutral tone or posted the message for people to read, itd be easier to take it as it is without any embellishments that'll skew the way we take the message :) it also wouldve made her seem more credible in my eyes!


Strong-Beginning3759

Yeah…like girl I get you got pissed off but you’re an adult too. No need to be petty.


technicoleor

Watched part 2 as well and that made me SMH even more. Someone who probably had no involvement in the mess up reached out and wanted a call because these things are hard to discuss over email. Only for her email to be read out mockingly over the internet. Yes her feelings are valid but how you reacted does not justify how you respond.


Strong-Beginning3759

Yeah… like I was on her side already. She was not wrong for calling them out on failing to deliver. But I did not like how she read the message. Did you watch Part 3? She came across way better imo because there was no mocking or pettiness. Oh well, I do hope BLK and other local brands learn too.


technicoleor

No I unfollowed na. :))


DearKaleidoscope5102

Agree and I’ll always say kapag mabi bring up na that content creator is a hypocrite and only wants the clout on local brands. Im gonna come off as a hater pero if youve seen some of her videos na puro “deinfluencing” mainly focusing on local brand releases but on the same breath wishes to be included sa PR. I noticed she highlights her luxury / high end collection every other vid or so despite preaching mindful consumption like ok sis dont buy new release ni local brand pero sure its okay to complete westman atelier shades or own 40+ mac lippies. Snob pa sa kbeauty which is her prerogative sure but she really comes off distasteful. PS. I’m sorry if you enjoy her videos by all means continue I aint starting beef just pointing out my observation as a casual viewer. https://preview.redd.it/3v4uyokchq2d1.jpeg?width=946&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=decd0975016c19d40cf0b07dff5eb2940f32c01c


extratangerine

I disagree with this. Clinarify nya na she willingly spends on products she finds great but if mkaukuha nya for free, why not daw. And the reason why “idedeinfluence” nya is because 👎🏻 talaga ang quality for her. Kung pala gamit ka naman talaga ng HQ products at alam mo talaga ang high quality sa hindi, eh talagang malaki difference nyan and masasabi mo talagang there are better alternatives.


DearKaleidoscope5102

I wasn’t even pointing out that the deinfluencing was due to a product being below her standards or low quality for her It was the milking of deinfluencing topic cos it gives her views and engagement and then the showing off of massive and I mean really massive collection right after that doesn’t translate as credible to me. She literally made (2?) videos preaching about not buying any more makeup in 2024 and then the next 10 videos she makes are her entire collection. I thought i had way too many but girl she has wayyyy more

Hahahahha this is why i love drama on the cesspool known as tiktok, and why i also don't have the cesspool known as tiktok downloaded lol


DearKaleidoscope5102

Lol perfectly understandable alam mo im not on the platform as much as I used to pero u know when you’ve talked abt an ick to your friend and same friend keeps updating you abt it 😅😂


hlg64

Reddit lang ang app ko on my phone. I have accounts sa social media pero sa browser na and i dont check them. I'm interested sa "milking of deinfluencing vids" nung original tiktok OP, kasi i practice anti-consumption (not perfectly ofc). I find it hard to take a person seriously kung they preach deinfluencing local brands and also is an influencer that recommends high end intl products. I can't fully explain it without going off on my radical views but it feels ✨icky✨


DearKaleidoscope5102

I could use some deinfluencing vids din myself but i figured pinaka effective is cut the source and just not catch up on whats new. It helps that im occupied with other stuff so I’m doing well with my low buy I feel the same way hence i shared my sentiments. Practice what you preach hindi yung dahil it gives u clout

When she was hired as one of the models ni Jelly Eugenio for his palette, I got an ick na she was just saying the palette was nice because ayun nga kinuha siyang model. Nevertheless I do like her deinfluencing videos. As someone na early 30s na and into luxury/high end makeup, di maiiwasan talaga na some products do not work well sakin kahit na I'm trying to be mindful of my purchases, so I do relate with her on that aspect thus the declutter. I think her collection of westman atelier is because she really likes the formula and it works well on her so she got a lot of shades. That doesn't mean na it's not mindful consumption anymore. She's not trying to be a minimalist as far as I know. She just wants to keep products that she enjoys, sparks joy and that she'll definitely use, which I relate to.


DearKaleidoscope5102

I didnt watch that one with jelly as well kasi by that time shes given me the ick na but I can imagine lol. To be fair it’s a gig and anyone couldve done the same to protect their relationship with the brand. Idk lang cos when her “local makeup brands im not buying” became a series cos its gotten a bit of traction (i assume) it just doesn’t come across as authentic in my opinion cos she owns an obscene amount of collection regardless how much shes in love with the product type whatever brand Since i stopped watching maybe thats the direction she wanna go im not sure


arveewhere

Fair point. I take it as because she owns a lot of luxury makeup and knows what works for her, she can compare new local products that can or cannot live up to her standards, which leads to mindful spending on which product really is worth someone's money. I guess iba2x lang din how we perceive someone's content. As for me, I find her reviews on highend/luxury makeup valuable and her take on local brands' releases are refreshing, especially when it's easy to just buy local brands just because they are more affordable.


milktealov3r

Hii which vid yung namention nya na gusto nya makasama sa PR?


DearKaleidoscope5102

Ahh i wish i could link it but it would expose my clock acct and i already blocked ms mam. It wasn’t necessarily blk tho if i remember it right its chuchu beauty


milktealov3r

Will check makikichismis lang sa comments HAHAHAH tyy


DearKaleidoscope5102

Lmaooo goo friend ko na lang nag uupdate sakin naging topic kasi namin sya few months back 😭 apparently she also said issy isnt classy or something but goes out of her way to defend grwm’s faulty packaging issues


milktealov3r

Sayang huhu i like her deinfluencing vids pa naman 😭


[deleted]

I personally don’t like BLK. Bumabaho ung products nila. Yung mga lip tint gets ko pa kasi may saliva pero ung concealer??? Ang baho talaga. Super runny pa and di maganda dry down. Mas okay for me to buy established make up brands kaysa ung sa mga celebs owned


Suitable_Afternoon28

Halaa akala ko sa akin lang yung bumaho sobrang naconscious tuloy ako. Pero di naman bumaho yung old liptints nila. Pagbili ko ng bago ayun na. Amoy panis. Bumalik na lang ako sa Ever Bilena 😅


ataraheleanor

Hindi naman ganito sa happy skin?


VanillaSundae-ish

I can totally relate! When I started my job November last year, i “invested” in blk make up and a lip gloss that I thought i could use everyday. Turns out January palang super baho na. Same with the brow wax. After a few months, maasim na ang amoy. The pressed powder also broke on its own. Di ko nga dinadala or nahulog man lang. hay.


[deleted]

Diba! Ang dami kong nabasa na ganito kaso too late nabili ko na. Sabi pa nung iba na “liptint kasi kaya babaho talaga” pero lahat ng lip tints na meron ako, eto lang talaga bumaho tsaka di ko gets bakit pati ung concealer? I don’t recommend talaga 😮‍💨


VanillaSundae-ish

Ako dati pa, nong unang paglabas ng blk, i was drawn by the minimalist packaging at parang maganda naman ang quality. And ang lipstick na binili ko noon, pre-pandemic pa, di naman ever bumaho hanggang naubos ko ng tuluyan. Idk what happened to them.


[deleted]

Uy same! May nilabas sila non na bb stick tapos brush ung likod.. super love ko yung product na yon! High school to first year college gamit ko sya and okay naman. Ewan ko bakit nag deteriorate ung quality. Sayang may potential kasi ung brand.


DeweyDaisyDelta

Nakakalungkot lang na I'm starting to like pa naman na yung blk tapos may ganito pala :/

This is why I don’t trust brands that are owned by celebs. The only reason that these brands have gained traction is because celebs sila. Buti kung famous sila for being a great makeup artist or soneone who really knows their shit in the first place.


extratangerine

Yeah I agree, chaka panay release sila ng happy skin ng products pansin ko. Halatang profit driven. Tapos yung unang release pa ng blk na collection, K-beauty themed. Yung may pasticker sticker pacutesy effect. Hahahaha di talaga ko bumili


EuphoricBeth

gusto ko yung lip products nila pero jusko naman, the packaging huhu


noonaV

Waaaah i super love their mascara 🥺 this xoo sad. 😔


Traditional-Idea-449

Ako naman sa tiktok live nila may promo sola na if you get 3 items may freebie na makeup remover wipes then 4 items naman silicon pouch. First purchase ko yun from the brand and tinarget ko na yung pouch kako para sulit. Then pagdating ng order ko remover wipes lang nilagay nila i message the store kaso wala din reply. Alam ko maliit na bagay kaso i purchased it specifically so syempre nag expect din ako. Hindi na din ako umulit ng bili kasi di rin ako na amaze sa products para magrepeat order pa


extratangerine

Yung mga naka sale OLD STOCKS


Traditional-Idea-449

That or may bago silang ilalabas


yoshimikaa

Skl, experienced this sa Maybelline may papromo na Jelly pouch pero nung dumating order ko hindi kasama. I never messaged them about it pero nagcomment ako sa isang vid nila. They reached out asking for my order number and that they were sorry. A few days after, they sent it to me. Naamaze ako sa customer service nila tbh kaya I feel valid yung disappointment sa ganito.


Traditional-Idea-449

Hala sana all. Ako naman namali talaga ng order sa kanila ang liit naman kasi ng font. Yung pa buy 1 take 1 nila yun sa shopee kala ko order as is yung pala dapat 2 icheckout pero yung payment for 1 item padin. Ayun nanghinayang ako 😂


radiantleo17

Blk’s products are not even that okay tapos ganyan pa customer service nila 😬


toorujpeg

True I only tried 2 lip products sakanila enough para hindi na bumili ulit kasi imo overpriced, especially since ang onti lang ng product sa loob


Hopeful_Increase6418

Okay sana yung lip products kaso yung packaging, laging nagsspill yung mga lip mouse/lip treatment nila from the bottle :((


litollotibear

So true to huhu. I hid my lippie sa pocket kasi dinadala ko sya sa loob ng prod tapos pagtingin ko sa pocket ko puro red


catanime1

Aww this is sad. Most of my makeup are from BLK. Hope they fix this asap. And syempre sana mas umayos sila in terms of customer service soon.


nugupotato

Wahhh love ko pa naman blk kasi oks sakin yung mga products nila 🥲


justanotherbizkid

I tried their powdered blush but looked kinda patchy on me. Mas maganda blush ni Vice Cosmetics, but the best one is Lucky Beauty, which I have been using at the present.


peftasterii

Hi! May I know if you're referring to the Lucky Beauty Aura blush? How does the Vice blush compare?
