DE-INFLUENCING YOU: don't buy these makeup BEST-SELLERS + here's why

[@itsjessicabraun]

Whew - people have some FEELINGS about the term de-influencing! I just wanted to take a fun stab at the trend…not making a big social statement here guys! LOL these are similar to my anti-haul videos or “products I regret buying” style!

[@mandy833]

Would you mind sharing what brush you used to apply the Makeup by Mario bronzer?

[@ginaconnors5983]

Jess, what color are you in the tower 28 tinted moisturizer ?

[@AmyEnzenroth]

I like a good “don’t buy this, but buy this” type video

[@kateeemclaughlin]

@@ginaconnors5983 I think she’s in 15 melrose… definitely 15, hopefully I got the name right!

[@streetfamily6909]

some people get their panties in a wad very easily 😂

[@sarahferguson0]

Honestly, my budget has de-influenced me more than anything else 🤣 I'm also a person who waits for sometimes months before buying something. I'll totally wait until no one is talking about a product and it's back in stock everywhere, THEN i might buy it if i still think it's good for me 🙂 but if you wait long enough someone will dupe it. Looking at you, Elf 🙂

[@kcricket39]

Same!! I don't mind being "behind the curve" if you will. I have products I like. I don't need the new ones immediately.

[@sarahferguson0]

@@kcricket39 behind the curve 🙂 i love it!

[@TiffanyDang96]

Thank you so much for not using crazy blank-out studio lights and no face filter. I love seeing how the complexion products actually look on real skin!

[@jlynd5526]

You are simply de-influencing to influence. I personally don’t see anything wrong with this video and/or wording. You are simply doing your job in a very respectful manner. Thanks for sharing.💗

[@aliciai.9150]

I love these types of videos just as much if not even more than telling me I NEED something. I love NOT wasting money on bad make-up 😁

[@hayleyemma7953]

Jessie, don't worry about influencing us in the video 😂 the term "deinfluencing" is influencing in itself! It's your video, we are here for your opinions, and we never feel pressured! Your language is great, it's always terms like " I'd you want" or " my recommendation" rather than " you HAVE to buy this". I love your videos for it!

[@AngiDas]

I appreciate you being honest about products that have high price tag, but are not good. Also, I hope your daughter is feeling better. Don’t forget to take care of you by the way in the midst of being mom.

Purito BB cream is amazing if you're a true neutral. I always found that foundations pulled too yellow or pink on me until I discovered it.

[@robynwood4]

I cannot tell you how much money and time you and other beauty reviewers have saved me. I would never have tried the Missha BB cream, if not for you, and I love that stuff. Your honesty and your in depth explanations about products are the best. Don’t let any negativity discourage you.

[@valeenify]

I’m loving this video concept - yes, tell us what you don’t like!! 🥳

[@smbarone2000]

I like this approach. It probably should not be just a trend. I believe it’s something that should be happening more in the influencing world. We have so many options available to us now at the make up counters. Many high-end brands are coming out with so-called inventive but expensive products. I need to know I can find something comparable before I’m like a fool spending money on things that I won’t reach for and kick myself for buying later.

[@merlin2946]

You also have to take recommendations with a grain of salt, everyone has different skin texture so what works for one doesn’t work for the other. I think for pricier products maybe go in store to test it out before buying,

[@lauracricket]

I love your approach to this! Solid reasons for not spending money on things we may feel pressured to buy, but for those of us in the market for a product, providing real and honest recommendations for alternatives is extremely helpful

Rare beauty tinted moisturizer is so beautiful on me though. Looks so good on photos. You recommended the Shiseido concealer, I bought it and its horrible on me I threw it because I just really hate it. It's just proof that it is really to each her own.

[@charlottelast2278]

Every time I see a blush or bronzer that is in a small package I think to myself Jess would hate this lol

[@ashleylantz]

I love that ULTA blush! I’ve tried a few colors and they’re all so great. It’s been one of my favorite liquid blushes for a while. I don’t wear foundation either, so it leave a cute sunkissed look. Obsessed.

[@shruti14901]

0:45 LOL that's the exact opposite of what @Kellygooch said.... She said there's no point in giving alternate recommendations and calling it de-influencing because it doesn't address the issue of over-consumption

[@janeenwehr6403]

I love that too faced bronzer! I wish more people would talk about it. Definitely beautiful packaging, and I love how it applies. It’s one of like 2-3 bronzers I own…not a bronzer girl as a general rule, so I’m picky.

[@hannahr9712]

I personally love that you included your recommendations even though it's a de-influencing video lol! I've had a few of these in my cart and it's nice to have an alternate recommendation rather than being back at square one not knowing what product to buy! Thanks for being you! Love your videos (and Tyler's)!

[@aimeeb260]

I’m so glad Felicity got her tubes! My son had them at 2 and again at 4. He is allergic to augmentin, so our problem was they couldn’t give him soooo many antibiotics. He also ended up with tonsils out before 3. All of these things helped so much, and I know it’ll help your little sweetie, too. Has her hearing been affected? My son’s was, but it all eventually worked itself out, thank goodness!

[@sharonshade4437]

I do like the Too Faced chocolate bronzer. It smells great too! I also agree with the ULTA Everyday Neutrals palette. It is a “go to” for me. I bought the bronze one for my daughter as well who runs warmer.

[@PlainJane144]

Poor Felicity! Sending prayers the tubes rectify the issue just like they did for Gigi! It's so hard to see your kids in pain and ill, especially if it's an ongoing thing. You are such a great mom, I love watching you guys on Tyler's channel and the new podcast as well! Hope you all have a peaceful night ❤️

[@autumnarnell1845]

I appreciate the alternative options you give because sometimes I think I’ll have better luck with the higher end products and was going to try that first, but this helps me to try the cheaper or better versions of a product I was gonna buy anyway. So I like this format. But I get what you mean about no buying. 🤷‍♀️ IM STILL GONNA WATCH YOUR VIDEO! 😂

[@julietauber6330]

"How bad is it?! (So bad!)" Hilarious and about made me spit my coffee out! I love that you gave alternatives to the products you mentioned, and most were actually cheaper options at that. Save some $$ and get better products is always a great deal in my book! Praying that little Felicity feels better and that you were all able to turn in early!

[@carolmax7747]

I have watched some of your older videos and you’ve always been beautiful but wow girl! This new hair look is gorgeous on you!! The glasses too!!

[@ohkay2090]

Almost done with my first Milani silky matte bronzer, great recommendation from you - thanks! Hair is looking gooood 😻

[@lorainemcgillivray77]

Hi Jessica I love my Dior cool neutrals palette, but I'm 51 and super pale skinned. It's not going to give pow pigment and very metallic shimmers like ND or Viseart etc, but that's why I like it for a soft everyday look. The shimmers are more of a satin and the mattes are soft/buildable in my palette (plus the eye primer is actually decent and works). I'm 51 and have textured lids, so highly pigmented shadows can take a LOT of blending and pow shimmers can really show texture (depending on the formula). This is easy to blend for me and quick to create a very soft daytime appropriate eye look - I use it a lot. I love Viseart shadows and I enjoy ND, but they take a lot more work to blend for me due to being really pigmented. It really depends on what you're looking for from a palette tbh and I'm happy with mine (it's in my everyday makeup stash). I'm sorry you didn't like it and perhaps there is an issue with quality control I'm unaware of, but I find most of the positive reviews are from more mature creators for the Dior palettes and that may be the difference. Best wishes.

[@barbthegreat586]

Not all of us like highly pigmented eyeshadows.

[@audreysanders2669]

So happy for miss Felicity and her tubes! They helped my little one so much!

[@sabrinakinnick1246]

How awesome is it that you gave alternatives. Love that, thank you! ❤

[@rjrambo]

I am always here for Jessies "weirdness" you're my favorite to watch and my "big sister" so many things in our life are similar like kids the same amount apart and same hair and eye color and you make me want to be a better version of myself. ❤️

[@jeanjennings5712]

Completely enjoyed your video. Also, it's always nice to hear about your family and the typical things that little people go through and how parents make sure to get the best treatments for them. Even when the time of day doesn't matter, you get your babies to their treatments on time and look after them with love and care. Hope you all rest up and enjoy some good night time comfort.

[@ginaconnors5983]

Jess, I love your honestly and kindness. Love your channel!!

[@BeckiBlack26]

Aww no, I love the CT beautiful skin foundation, works like a dream on my face and wears well too. So sad it didn’t work out for you, just goes to show how everyone’s skin is so different in terms of what works on it. To be fair, I agree I don’t see many people talking positively about CT beautiful skin

[@ciaranewland1072]

I love how fun and relatable you are Jessica! I truly feel like I’m hanging out with my sister every time I watch your vids:) they make me laugh and make my day!❤️ thanks for these recommendations! I’ve really wanted to try the makeup by Mario skin enhancer… not sure if I’ll bite the bullet or not. Probably wait for a sale.

[@MItiRIonAM]

I was wondering how would she put ‘her mark’ on this lovely makeup try-on (need more of this btw).. I just needed to wait ‘till the end and she delivered!!! Yaasss spicyyy 😈

[@sandrafinney9925]

My daughter had tubed put in her ears and it worked. They fell out on their own and she was good to go. I love when you do these videos. I have bought so many products from your recommendations. I love how you give options. You save me so much money.

[@blc1695]

Aww how sweet felicity got her ears feeling better.my son has autism and he's nonverbal so for him he has had to be put under multiple time to do the surgery it's so scary especially for the kids i would imagine but,necessary for these sweet kiddos so glad everything went well.ok sorry for the storytime but love ur guys blogs and videos thank you for you time and sharing ur life with us ❤️

[@JadaReneePaints]

Jess honey I literally have gone years without me wearing make up because I was so terrified of buying the wrong thing but at the same time honesty is the best policy and all of us whether we say it or not prefer it over being lied to! For example, I went into JCPenney’s through the mall and ended up getting some make up and during that process the person that was helping me was very honest about not only their selection but what works and what doesn’t!!!😊 you not doing anything wrong for hitting the trends right now!

[@celinew3444]

[@missysmakeup]

Love the video Jessica!! Love that you included your recommendations as well. Omg I relate so hard with the ear infection story! My son has the same problem, was battling an ear infection every month for the first 6 months of school (he’s in kindergarten) and has been on and off antibiotics the entire time. We switched pediatricians because he just kept prescribing antibiotics and never recommended us to see an ENT. Our ENT said he should have his tonsils and adenoids removed, interesting he decided to not do tubes instead. Hope you all get the much needed rest and your little one heals quickly! 💛💛

[@jillrelliott]

I have been watching you for probably 6 years now and you are getting more and more beautiful with time!! You do a great job with your videos as well!

[@SRuss8417]

I bought that Ulta Everyday Faves eyeshadow palette because of your recommendation, and it is my most favorite palette of all time, ever!

[@seevanhawkins4591]

The Purito BB cream is EVERYTHING.

[@lizmartin4555]

I wear the Glossier Cloud Paints on my lips more than my cheeks! It has such a pretty stain look. The color Storm is my favorite.

[@sherig1376]

Definitely think that if it’s de-influencing it should be to convince people to not buy anything at all. No alternatives just use what you have.

My youngest child had chronic ear infections until we put tubes in. It was a game changer! So glad Felicity is doing well. I love the Sephora foundation but I picked up the wrong color. I need to go back and try a lighter shade. Great video!

[@andonoemi3391]

About the Hoola and Too Faced,for me it's the other way around. I love the Too Faced,but i find it a bit too pigmented and harder to work with,the Hoola i love it,but lately I've been using the Charlotte Tilbury Nudegasm face pallette,love the colors for my skintone.

[@paulinehowell9569]

A trick of mine... I have the beauty blender and a morning shower person. I take in the shower and use the dr bronner liquid soap to cleanse. Have honestly had mine for over a year 😊

[@michelinai]

Girl I literally laughed when you said the first product!! I’m wearing it right now after buying a second color to get it to match me and I just can’t decide if I like it! I swear I’m trying to almost make myself like it because everyone seems to love it and say it’s great. And I love Rare beauty otherwise but man I just don’t think I like it. It feels so good to hear someone else say it. Maybe I’m not crazy and I just actually don’t like it 😂 I think you’ve influenced me to give up and return it

[@sererev]

I finished an entire mini Hoola, I broke the corners of the packaging so that I could get it to lay flat, that made picking it up very easy! (I do agree with you though, it is an overhyped product)

The Glossier Cloud Paints are only sheer in the lightest shades. The darker shades are SO pigmented. I have Spark, Puff, and Dusk and am close to your skin tone. The Spark shade(poppy red) one TINY pinprick of it is enough for a very bright flush on one cheek.

for me its also rare beauty bronzer. im 1C0 in eldw and even newest lightest cool toned shade was scaert dark n way to warm. original lightest shade was also way too dark and orange. I cant judge formula. i am sure it's great but i cant' deal with the color. No cream contour works except Fenty (that lightest grey one but I cannot remember the name), or the Westman biscuit contour one lol. Hoola I do not like either so i am sp glad u said that. and both hoola and hoola lite r dark on me LOL. I dnt think too faced will work either. honestly like 99 percent of bronzers like really bad. But totally agree on the too faced vs benefit formulas :-)

I have had my beauty blender sponges for years and they just don't die. 😅 I put them in a bra bag and toss them in the wash with my towels (hot setting) & then I leave them to dry in the press. They're still perfect. Not a nail notch or tear in sight. The darker colours may run and then they turn a weird sallow colour (the towels are light and no problems there) but that's it. They literally don't die & I feel bad to throw them out because I'm bored with them 😂 so my little ugly spongelings are still living their best life with the others.
