He’s a cosmetic chemist. It’s his job to professionally and scientifically say how it is, it’s his professional opinion so it’s his job to say in fairness all goods and bads, not sure how you can be derogatory towards a product though, since derogatory means to show offensive/disrespectful attitude towards something which, unless it’s causing physical adverse effects, it would just be the truth or an opinion that supports the facys
@LunarEleven Жыл бұрын
ME TOO. Javon seems to consistently give honest information without getting snobbish, he's just focusing on the most important aspects to look out for which is actually a helpful takeaway. Cosmetics are not easily accessible with a tight budget and none of us needs to feel bad on the inside because people make us think we can't afford to feel good on the outside.
@caramelcheezit6978 Жыл бұрын
@Kawaii_Karma I'm glad you said this; I was thinking the same thing. Most times it's just people feeling triggered than there is anything wrong with what someone says. I don't know if it's good for your own wellbeing if you IDENTIFY with a price point. The money you make and loose is always up to you. It's like a video game; yes some people have jt harder than others but it's something that is pretty neutral in nature unless you want it to have a meaning.
@caramelcheezit6978 Жыл бұрын
@@LunarEleven I think you have larger issues if expensive makeup makes you feel bad You can appreciate him for how he handled it but honestly I think you need some self reflection to do if you're happy he didn't offend or make you feel bad... It just makes me worried thinking what makes you feel bad otherwise. Not just you but others who feel this way. Feelings are temporary and praising someone just for not making you feel bad is odd and subjective.
