[@rachelatwater7576]

It’s being wasteful and how do they know what expires first.

[@missdenisebee]

I think my biggest petty pet peeve with restock influencers is that they ALL seem to wear the exact same oversized sweatshirt with the longass sleeves. It just makes me shiver, imagining how the filthy cuffs would be, getting into absolutely everything😭 Also, back in the late 2010s I had a brief period as a skincare account on Insta, & I had a whole RACK of different sheet masks. Even using them daily, sometimes twice a day, the vast majority expired before I got to them. Same with other skincare products. It is SO hard to go through it in time, especially if you’re trying new products constantly. Most of it will never be used more than a handful of times.

[@Em-fz5uh]

Yeah, even if I'm not nuts about a product, as long as it's not _bad_ I try to use it up before buying something new because I'll never manage to use it up before it expires otherwise, and I don't wanna just throw it in the trash. They're literally throwing away money and plastic and chemicals for no reason... 😞

[@MeganPinskey]

I used to work as a content creator and had WAYYY too much skincare and beauty products it was scary. A lot ended up going to waste too because I wasn’t able to finish everything before it expired (sad). Now, a few years later, I only buy what I need and will use it all up before buying new products. I am definitely not a minimalist but for skincare and beauty, I try to consume as little as possible. I also no longer work as a content creator so I don’t have to worry about have excess products anymore.

[@IsabellaLanter]

I feel that. If I get things I don’t need I give it away to friends and family.

[@Moleda1986]

It’s so funny that you posted this today because I was JUST thinking about how much I despise those restocking videos. Like ‘the guest bathroom’ restocks? Those are my absolute least favorite. Not only is it over-consumerism, but it’s not even for themselves, it’s for a hypothetical situation where a guest is going to come visit and manage to forget to bring any and every toiletry. It’s just soooo obnoxious because you know they’re just buying all that shit for views.

Yeah and if it’s a big family and they all like drinks with ice like that, they might go through it pretty quickly. I know some people use fun ice like that for their kids cus it gets them to drink water. So this ice thing seems like the most “normal” one to me. It’s a couple relatively cheap, reusable trays used to turn something average into something a little more whimsical, and I like that.

This trend is most definitely part of the reason why plastic production and consumption keep rising despite the fact that environmental concerns have become so established that nowadays they’re basically a marketing strategy. This is insane. And, frankly, it’s wrong and harmful on so many levels.

[@gabrielle.strauss]

The things that bugs me the most about the restock videos is when they put it into another container but it doesnt all fit so they still have to find a place to put the remaining product and its package!! They all must have like a dump closet somewhere we're not seeing.

[@MyDreamIsAStory]

I am sure we have all seen that one person now doing videos packing their Stanley. It’s too much. My water bottle doesn’t need accessories. I put a boot on the bottom to keep it from getting dented, maybe stickers, and that is it. I don’t need a pill case, pouch, charm, and other silly items.

[@cmbwtheliel]

Outside the obvious emphasis on overconsumption that I find appalling, there’s another reason I avoid this content and would never implement it: my anxiety. I’ve been able to manage it in my personal well enough, but trying to implement a system even half this complicated this would reactivate it so hard. The amount of plastic containers and the idea of the time spent restocking them would make me not even want to start without several days to emotionally prepare myself.

[@needmoresnacks]

I like the ones that are normal amounts of things organization. There are SO many things that just make no sense to have so much. That scrub will be like two lifetimes worth. But cute little containers for bathroom stuff like qtips or floss picks, it’s super relaxing. I hate the ones that are obviously just ads for expensive fridge bins or whatever, there’s so much at dollar tree that looks just fine in my pantry 😅 I know some will think certain things are silly like dumping bulk product into a glass jar but it makes me feel happy. It’s truly the overconsumption itself that lies the problem. I’m SUPER glad to see ‘underconsumption’ stuff trending now 💕

[@toda2638]

I do actually have little "jars" for my q-tips and cotton balls in my bathroom at home (much easier to grab something out of a jar adjacent to the sink than go digging through a drawer or cabinet), but I hate the people who talk about buying special containers for that kind of stuff for travel. I got absolutely roasted for saying "you know, hotels have those, you can just ask" on another forum (ranged from "they're generic, you're low-class if you are willing to use generics!" to "how cheap are you?"). But, yeah, hotels have those, you can just ask. I asked about two weeks ago, and they sent up 3 packs of each, 4 in each pack (so 4 q-tips and 4 cotton balls in each pack), which was MORE than enough for my 7-night stay! I may be a little cheap, but more than anything, I don't want to buy special containers for things like that, and I often need to maximize space in my bag for things I can't get on the fly (y'know, like clothes)!

[@needmoresnacks]

@@toda2638 like travel sized products? I’ve gotten them occasionally but only to refill with the regular size when I need to. I do agree on the sentiment with people who continually get those smaller products out of convenience, I personally go out of my way to get something reusable for any extra containers. I think that’s where the bulk of the waste lies, relying fully on disposable products so often and feeling the need to have way more than you’d need. I try not to be wasteful but wouldn’t go as far as to consider myself an environmentalist. I aim to be as ethical of a consumer than I can, I think that’s what bothers me with these is that people just don’t care. Even when pointed out they just stick their nose and say ‘I can spend my money however I want’. I know they can but that should still be criticized

[@mm-ln9sw]

i am currently in the process of using every product i have and not buying a new one until i’ve finished my last bottle of the type of item. i’m not rich so i never had absurd amounts but i’d have like 3 face washes, 2 toners, multiple lotions so i told myself no more new products until i’ve finished the ones i had. it’s almost time for new face wash!😂

I super appreciate your vids ❤ ngl the best thing I ever did was admit to myself (and my psychiatrist) that I was depressed. I knew I needed medication or my life would continue to downward spiral. I am on 3 different anti depressants and have never felt better. It has been 5 years since my lowest and although I tried to get off of them, I am fully okay with continuing them for life. If you need meds that is between you and your provider. I had to tell myself I was not "weak" or "lazy" or "less than" for needing meds. We are enough ❤ sending hugs and happy thoughts your way 🤗

[@trinitybraveheart16]

Awwww I love you so much and your content is literally so real and raw. We don’t have enough of that these days! you got this stay true sista❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Maguire708Julie]

Can’t stand the overconsumption of products - both restock items and the repackaging storage units!

[@zahrakassam2559]

Your lash video popped up for me and picqued my interest and I found myself so in agreement with your points. Just wanted to let you know you're beautiful and extremely well spoken! Thank you for verbalizing all my thoughts.

[@SalviAlmighty]

Biggest red flags of these "restocks" is that the containers are always ALL 100% empty. Like girl waited for the last item in the fridge to run out before getting groceries. (It hit me during the "stanley restock". There was nothing left in her little side case, and everything she put back in was a brand new product. (Sidenote, but using a Stanley cup as your entire purse is BATSHIT) Also, I've seen a bunch of these insane restock/collection videos before. The ice girl and the shower girl ones make me feel like I've stumbled in the wrong timeline.

[@kerriwright4593]

I've spent so so so much money on beauty products trying to keep up with KZbin influencers. I knew nothing about KZbin until 2019 I wanted to buy and try everything.

[@johall5560]

I don’t understand why people take things out of container’s or packets to put in other containers!

[@PassportMeetsParadise]

Thanks for this!!!! I’m so glad I’m not alone when I think like this. Keep being gentle to yourself!!

[@drme22]

My purse is a small black hole and I could restock forever because it disappears once it goes inside….except receipts. So many receipts.

[@NikkiBWithTheAdHd]

I LOVE your frames behind you with the 3D flowers. 🌸 stumbled upon your page and this video def was top tier. I always watch these restock videos etc and feel so shitty about how not put together my own life is. I’ve learned to just keep scrolling. 😅

[@jordanwebster7337]

I feel this so hard!! I had been doing soooo good w my depression for a solid year. then shit popped off at my job and I’ve been soo struggling since! I definitely appreciate you sharing!💜 depression is not that bitch!

[@alison5793]

I actually do use that carry sleeve for my tumbler. I hate carrying my bulky purse to things like a kid's game or outdoor event. I put my bottle in the sleeve, my keys, chap stick, my cash (for snacks or extras), my phone and I'm good. Then I'm not having to use a heavy purse for a casual event but still have all the things I need while away from my car or purse. I've had it now for over a year and it's worked well for me. I just keep it in the car so I have it if we go somewhere and tote it around like a crossbody.

[@gemstoned66]

It’s really crazy what company’s sell overseas. I have NEVER seen these 14:34 singular packed neutrogena wipes here in Germany and by god I could never imagine these being sold here

[@biancaluv9754]

i live and breath for the over consumption ASMR videos so relaxing scratches my brain BUT can’t fathom someone using their real world money to buy that

[@lostmyjuul]

i really appreciated the intro to this one, i fear it seems we were attacked around the same time.. sending you peace and healing girl

[@cokes42]

Real life issues can be so hard. You have to take care of yourself first. I get it. I'm glad you're back

[@VioletWitch78]

A lot of these are also weird desperate attempts to get sponsored/be a partner for a brand. They're doing all this free labour in the hopes the brand will notice them and legitimise their need to be an influencer

[@savannap7823]

What and how and why would you ever possibly need 22 sugar scrubs at one time?? That’s insane, as someone who works in retail with beauty product I stock these scrubs and I see people buy 4-5 at a time and come back within a month to buy another 4-5 more. It’s too much exfoliation and waste and money down the drain.

[@mscookie3613]

Listen I’m ngl. I got the Thermo flask Stanley knock offs from Costco.. they’re just as good insulated/quality.. but I dropped one on pavement within a week of owning it and it has a huge scuff now.. so the condoms really aren’t the worst thing and it’s not for more insulation it’s for protection. No I didn’t buy one but I can see the appeal especially for us clumsy folks.

[@uselessmemberofsociety4664]

"She whipped out the overconsumption tackle box" finally I have a word for that thing!

[@Volundur9567]

The nail clacking and crinkling packaging is violating my brain.

[@jazzosaurousyes5787]

It is so bad for your skin to be putting 100s of different skincare products on your face and using new products constantly. It will destroy your skin’s epidermis layer. Trust me!! You are better to use potent skincare packed full of deep healing hydrating ingredients that total to 4 products including sunscreen. Your skin won’t be able to keep up with everything your applying to your face, you will suffer tightness, redness, frequent reactions, breakouts and possible dermatitis. These influencers don’t care about the health of your skin! They care about you spending the money on the products they were paid to talk about through sponsorships!

[@lizhenson4563]

This is why I deleted all social media (aside from KZbin) during Covid. The entire point of it is to convince you to buy shit you don’t need lol. Btw, you’re my go to favorite comfort KZbinr as I’m getting ready for a stressful workday ❤

[@pippin3168]

That intro hit for me 😅 thank you for the honesty it’s so relatable and makes me feel less crazy

[@amylin9695]

People forget that this extra bs is somebody’s job and they’re getting paid for that time and materials where as the person influenced is not

[@em-agan]

13:12 some of these light up phone cleaner guys do work, there was a dude who tested them on KZbin. Can’t remember who right now… basically Lysol worked better and you still needed to clean it of oils and debris for an effective clean, but the box did make a noticeable difference

[@avery1703]

I'm usually quick to point out that it's not the responsibility of the individual consumer to save the environment with their spending habits...... but "tackle box full of individually wrapped single-use items to put on my stanley cup (of which I have 9)" is so far past normal. like what's she going for, plastic waste chic? There's also the "guest bathroom restock" ones where theyre putting thousands of dollars worth of skincare into drawers, like why are they pretending they keep five identical drunk elephant moisturizers sitting around their guest bathrooms?

[@Xengaa]

Can i just say my biggest pet peeve is crinkling sounds from packaging/ wrapper. OOOFF lol

[@BlowinFree]

I can empathise. Mine is the tapping of nails . It’s like a red rag to a bull 😂

[@constancep7632]

​@BlowinFree for me it's wet mouth noises! Some people love ASMR, but for others it's just triggerville 😅

[@BlowinFree]

@@constancep7632 I can’t stand it lol! Asmr freaks me out!! Those whispering ladies who apply make up gives me nightmares 😱😂

[@justletmelisten243]

All the stanley "attachments" make me think of crocs and jibbitz, but at least we collectively acknowledged that jibbitz were just decorative

[@Recoveringsunset]

Can you imagine telling people in the 90s that one day the Internet would be used to watch people restocking ice

[@BlowinFree]

I’d be asking you to share whatever mind bending drug you were partaking in 😂

[@carliebrown8267]

I don’t even go through my shampoo and conditioner at the same rate, so the fact that restock influencers can fully “restock” their tackle box with random single-use products blows my mind. There is no way they finish everything at the same time to do an entire restock of every product at once.

[@toda2638]

Had to stop and comment on the ice tray/bin combo. I had my kitchen and dining room redone last year, and my fridge (which makes ice! I am WITH YOU on an ice maker being the greatest thing ever!) was disconnected from the water for the 5 weeks it took to tear 1/6 of my house apart and put it back together. I got one of those bad boys because girl needs ice in her dranks! It was pretty, pretty good! Once the ice was made, you can store it in the bin, and then the ice trays sit on top of it, so you can make more ice without having to figure out how to set trays down level in your freezer. I gave it to a friend who doesn't have an ice maker once my fridge was back in place and hooked back up to the water, and he thinks it's pretty great, too!

[@sarahjamison2151]

What a sad full circle moment that it’s Emily Leah too… who used to do commentary videos on mlms 😢
