Geek & Gorgeous founder's industry secrets | Are you paying too much for beauty products?

[@Firkant2]

I fricking love Judit and G&G. A highly affordable no-nonsene skincare brand shipping from within the eu, unique products priced well below market-price and great service. Its been a God-sent! Thank you! Im so impressed and excited to see which composit- serums you've got in the pipeline for 2023. (pigmentation please! wink wink )

[@bee8172]

Just for the record. Judit is BOTH the Geek AND the Gorgeous! :) Congratulations to your brand! (I'm a loyal user) :)

[@hany2980]

I've discovered this brand very recently. Saw their C Glow serum on Hot&Flashy channel. Angie talked highly of it, then I saw Dr Dray's review and I was impressed. I was even more impressed and extremely happy to find out that I could buy it and get it delivered to me in Spain in 48 hours at a very affordable price. I have just started using it and I have high hopes with this vitamin C serum. If it works for me, I am going to be a very faithful customer and will try other products. Fingers crossed. All the best to this brand.

[@thehonestchannel]

Great to hear!

[@C4RYB34R]

i used it...its okay the star procuts are the retinal the Jelly Cleanser is not very good.

[@davidsotir4318]

Clare, you always have the best interviews! I actually prefer the Geek & Gorgeous A-Game 10 serum and think it's better than the Medik8 Crystal Retinal as it's not fragranced and easier to spread. Judit has achieved an incredible amount in the skincare space in such a short time. Keep these insightful interviews coming. Thanks Clare!

[@thehonestchannel]

Thanks David!

[@cammerations]

I also have the vitamin C and I always buy three at a time and keep them all in the fridge. I've never had any turn yellow on me. I appreciate the transparency and education around the instability of vitamin C at Geek and Gorgeous. I haven't seen that anywhere else.

[@ArbuzoweMango]

How long does it take to finish one bottle?

[@cammerations]

@@ArbuzoweMango I'm pretty consistent and I share my vitamin C with my partner because I'm trying to get him into skincare. I think it takes us six weeks of daily use to go through a bottle. I love the G&G brand. The only thing is I would prefer to be able to use a single all-in-one serum which is quicker and takes up less space, and that's the only reason why I might end up looking elsewhere.

[@kergulec59]

Geek and gorgeous is a no brainer -They are so good and honest ❤

[@marleenscholte2738]

Very interesting interview, looks like Judit Racz is an honest Beauty "geek" love to hear more from her. I use the C Glow serum from Geek&Gorgeus and it's a simple but great vitamine C, not turning yellow before I use it up.

[@thehonestchannel]

She's great, isn't she. I really enjoyed talking to her. Good to know you like using the vitamin c serum.

[@mtngrl5859]

Great interview. I just received my first order from them. Impressed that it arrived before it was due all the way from Hungary to Florida! If one spends over 60 euros ( easy to do) shipping is free to the USA. Nicely packaged, no open tubes or broke tubes/containers.

[@thehonestchannel]

Great to hear you’ve had a good experience with them.

[@Lioness_UTV]

Thank you for this great interview, I found it to be entertaining and informative. Its my first intro to G&G, so was especially interesting to listen to the founder on how she got started and the background her philosophies around skin care. Dashing off to place an order 🏃‍♀️

[@nvb455]

Another wonderful honest and informative interview Clare!! Really enjoyed this! I'm really anticipating to hear about Ivan Galanins view on retin-a and potentially thinning the skin.I'm really looking forwards on a deep dive on that subject: skin tightening and restoring. The adipeau product is so interesting! Love your channel.

[@thehonestchannel]

Great to hear you enjoyed it : ) I'm publishing my Adipeau 3-month review next week - and I will be exploring Ivan's view on tretinoin very soon!

[@maireadweaver8952]

OMG how wonderful is Judit .. I LOVED this interview - thank you Clare. I have started using the G and G Vitamin C serum (C Glow) and it is lovely on the skin. I wonder what the difference is between their Retinal and the Medik8 one (apart from the price!) .. I would be interested to know as the Medik8 strength 10 is almost 100 euro now .. I saw that you had an insert of a comparison video .. any chance of a link to it please???? Thanks a mill.

[@thehonestchannel]

So glad you enjoyed the interview! Judit is great. Here's that link for you now : ) kzbin.info/www/bejne/oIO4iI2bbJyBjck

[@maireadweaver8952]

@@thehonestchannel thanks Clare .. guess I'll be switching brands for my retinal now as well !!!

[@athenadrosati]

The best brand .exactly what a smart customer wants

[@nissirapatricia5795]

If I am correct, it's thanks to her that one of the biggest skincare scandals was out regarding Korean sunscreens.

[@thehonestchannel]

That’s right, she flagged that the SPF in Purito's sunscreen, Centella Green Level Unscented Sun, was much lower than advertised.

[@claudiaglows]

Another great interview Clare. I have never tried any of their products, but am definitely curious x

[@thehonestchannel]

Thanks Claudia. I can vouch for their retinal.

[@archertja1]

Love this brand even more now (if that was humanly possible). Fantastic interview, thanks so much Claire!

[@thehonestchannel]

Yes, I think they're great.

[@jackiemyers1196]

I will be changing my skin care to Geek and Gorgeous.

[@thehonestchannel]

I don’t think you can go wrong with their products and they’re cost effective too!

[@consciouscrypto3090]

This product line reminds me of The Ordinary. They also sell separate ingredients at an affordable price.

[@jillpotts7472]

u r doing such an amazing job helping the consumers!

[@thehonestchannel]

Great to hear - thank you Jill!

[@susanbowman3865]

Clare, your skin looks beautiful, I’m really noticing a difference. Are you still using the serum to restore facial fat or have you stopped? Not to mention a competitive brand but the Ordinary has a water like serum called Botox in a bottle that professional makeup artists swear by for their clients called Argeriline (sp?) It works especially well in treating 11’s (downward lines between the eyebrows) and I can tell the difference if I’m out of product. So now I keep a backup! Just wanted to share with your subscribers. Perhaps her brand Geek and Gorgeous carries the formula as well. Thanks for bringing us the best information and people.

[@thehonestchannel]

Thanks Susan! I am still using the Adipeau cream and am enjoying the results. Interesting to hear you’re seeing a difference with Argireline! Thanks for the tip!

[@stobiepiel2585]

I'm on my 2nd c-glow. It's great and it does NOT turn orange (I've finished mine before the exp date) It's so nice and light.

[@hany2980]

Can't wait for a very good sunscreen from this brand. Thank you for this interview.

[@thehonestchannel]

Yes, me too!

[@olga_b344]

Judit is a class act all around!

[@pethaudiddorol]

Dear The Honest Channel: could you review ‘Skintelligent’ by Dr Natalia Spierings, truly a breath of fresh air regarding ‘Big Skincare’. The brand is literally a wake-up call to those who buy expensive products. The brand is literally incredible in its ethos Product formulation and technologies haven’t changed much in at least 20-30 years. Their prices and formulations literally had me stop buying skinceuticals

[@thehonestchannel]

Hi. Thanks for flagging this. I will ask her if she'd be willing to do an interview with me on the channel. Fingers crossed!

[@drc4168]

And what a fantastic interview it was!!!!! ❤

[@maryannsinopoli1751]

On any comments for any brands, is there reassurance company CEO or employee is not bragging of it? I just wonder only, I am always so curious unfortunately!

[@progr3ssnotperfection]

Love it! To the geeks! Thank you !!!

[@logicalblueberry]

Awesome! What is the difference between Geek and Gorgeous Retinol and prescription Tretnoin? Thank you.

[@thehonestchannel]

I did this video a while back explaining the difference between retinol, retinal (which G&G make) and tretinoin which you may find helpful kzbin.info/www/bejne/n6K9hJeXgdZ3mNk

[@debpalm8667]

Love her!!

[@jillpotts7472]

hmmm should vit c be kept in the refrigerator? i have not kept my vit c in the refrigerator. recommendations?

[@thehonestchannel]

I ordered the C Glow straight after speaking with Judit and I am definitely keeping it in the fridge.

[@jackiemyers1196]

Great video.

[@thehonestchannel]

Thanks Jackie.

[@jillpotts7472]

she did not say the packaging is more $$ than the product!!!

[@thehonestchannel]

Now we know!

[@pandorajj]

Sure she is smart and she can make good products but she has zero menagment ability...if G&G want more clients than they must find adequate person to do their marketing..she already told us she is shy and that is a big no no for this job ..when ahe was asked what is her favourite and must have skin care ingredient,she said sunscreen 😮😂😂 but they don't have sunscreen yet 😂😂and second very important ingredient for her is peptides and also they don't have one yet 😂😂😂

[@valentinacekanskyte8114]

Hello Clare, what happened to your face, you look so much younger? Is it calecim? 9r new make up? Please let us know. This is unbelievable.

[@thehonestchannel]

Oh wow, that's really interesting that you're seeing a difference. I have been using Adipeau's Active Face Cream for the last three months after I interviewed its creator, Ivan Galanin. I've just filmed the review which will be published next week!

[@valentina-pg4bj]

[@4tun8nanette]

@@thehonestchannel I'm seeing a positive change too. Do you have a discount code for Adipeau's cream?

[@thehonestchannel]

@@4tun8nanette That's great news. You can use the code HONEST20FOR2 to get a 20% discount when ordering two bottles and otherwise HONEST10 for 10% off single orders.

[@maryannsinopoli1751]

Dear Clare: not meaning to be negative however I see your right side better. Of course your hair is covering up a large area there so I could be wrong. Your left side the hair is behind the ear . Too bad the right side was not behind the ear also for better view.

[@thehonestchannel]

Hi Maryann. I’m sitting slightly side on for this interview so it means one side of my face is more in view than the other. Apologies.

[@beachlife7949]

What is your opinion of BLUELENE? Its been popping up a lot lately claiming to be better than RETIN-A. I read the scientific studies behind it and it really does sound good. "Claudia Glows" KZbin channel had on the inventor/Doctor at a University in the US talking about it.

[@thehonestchannel]

I saw Claudia's interview and thought it looked a really interesting product. Definitely worth a try if you're looking for a gentler alternative to tretinoin. I'm very tempted

[@beachlife7949]

@@thehonestchannel I did go ahead and order it I ordered the "night cream plus" which has serum already in it, and I ordered the "eye cream" been wearing the night cream every night for about 4 days and the eye cream day and night. I definitely see a difference in the eyes because I'm 58 and that is my worst area and during the day my makeup is looking very smooth and plump in that area which is very exciting because I can't seem to find anything else that does that! The night cream I am loving as well my skin looks plump and firm when I wash my face in the morning! This maybe my new holygrail! Also, the claims and info when researching were very exciting.💗

[@thehonestchannel]

@@beachlife7949 That’s great to hear! I’m even more tempted now.

[@regroovable]

I watched Claudia’s interview with the scientist behind Bluelene and rushed to place an order……then I did a double check of ingredients and noticed they use citrus oils which are problematic for my sensitive skin. Luckily I didn’t press purchase 😅

[@thehonestchannel]

@@regroovable Ah, that’s good that you checked first 👍
