These products make SO much sense, coming from Nikki! ...I mean that they are a kind of hybrid between skincare and make up prep products. I wish her all the success with these!!

Hello 👋 how are you doing

[@cosmictruth6333]

i love cassandra. love her honesty and knowledge. such a gem. i want her dr. dray and dr. vanita to combine forces and work on a skincare line together. lol

[@FlowceanSoul]

While I’m not in love with the products, the way she handled this is AMAZING. The genuine and authentic feel of “I actually give a shit about these products I made” versus the regular celebrity launch which is, like you said, them just slapping their face on already formulated products by a company and they had NOTHING to do with the formulation other than maybe adding a fragrance or random essential oil to make it “theirs”. This feels so real and true, and it makes me love her even more. The fact that she launched this herself with her own money too? Girl, YES 🙌🏻

[@Kimberly_Sparkles]

I'm curious if the depuffer does something like what preparation H does to eye bags. It's an old TV MUA trick to firm up the skin. As far as I know nothing quite does that in makeup prep skincare...these are some specific niches.

What authentic he has done like that small fan. It’s used widely in china and cost like a dollar, interesting copying from chinese products and put their name on it selling it overpriced and people say wow very creative.

Considering Nikki is a girl who battles the curse of redness/puffy face, she would have been the perfect before and after for her products so I'm a little suss she didn't give a demo.

[@CatsOrangeAndGrey]

I think she’s just waiting for others to do all that. That’s usually what companies do. They swatch and show a bit, but they leave it up for reviewers to do the detailed stuff.

[@Kiterpuss]

She does on the brand website, and will likely do a demo video separately from the launch video. It's standard business practice to space out those kinds of things to build consumer interest!

[@farahs8341]

Nikkie did briefly share how she was "burned" by the industry years ago. Early into her YT fame she collabed with TooFaced on a make up palette. They coerced her into accepting just 50 000 USD to use her name and pictures for marketing. They sent her make up samples of the collab products which were super high quality so she approved of them and then put awful cheap quality with different ingredients into the consumer palettes. And of course they put stuff into her contract which made it impossible for her to sue them or talk about it for years. It was Jeffrey Star who aired the dirty laundry when he was going after TooFaced for another thing they did to another influencer. Nikkie admitted that it was kinda her fault because she was too inexperienced to understand what she signed when she got the contract. TooFaced made MILLIONS with the collaboration products and Nikkie lost the trust of her community for a while because she couldn't legally talk about the scam until years later.

[@joskost_]

Hey! I love using cooling sticks when I have bad allergy symptoms! I think what Nikkie was referring to was that it helps relieve burning and dryness around the eye that’s associated with rubbing itchy eyes. I’m so unkind to my eyes during allergy seasons lol, the cooling sticks just help the skin around them feel a little better, with the help of my antihistamine eye drops!

[@marylalari1]

Yaaaasss!!!! Preach! I use a few eye products that most people claim “is a simple formula “ “its over priced moisturizer “ “you don’t really need it” but it keeps me from rubbing my eyes! And that’s gotta be saving me from some few wrinkles at least 🤣 of course only medicine will remedy my allergies, but my allergies also make my skin, itchy, dryer, red, sometimes flaky and/or with micro abrasions… so while antihistamines treat me inside-out, I might use skin care to go outside-in and treat specific areas 😉 calming creams, skin repair creams, cooling creams… they all help, even without curing my allergies

[@rokai29nakalevu]

[@cosminahogea]

When Nikkie says that the cooling stick helps with hayfever, there is some partial truth to it and have tested this on my son. My son has a pretty bad pollen allergy and I found that if I put Vaseline around his eyes or nose , his eyes are not as irritated and he doesn’t sneeze as much. So what I think it does is that because the cream is sticky, a lot of the pollen sticks to the cream and doesn’t go into his eyes. True and tested! Hope that makes sense

[@Raisedbybats]

I love Nikkie and I'm excited for her but I'm confused why we don't get to see the products used on bare and filterless skin. The promotional video is full of models with already perfect skin and makeup on. How would we know the products work? Just believe her words on it? Edit: what I mean by this, since it's makeup prep and not skincare you would expect immediate results that make the makeup sit and look better on the face, just like a primer would do. Why not show us a comparison of how makeup looks with and without the products. If it's claimed it reduces red skin and hydrates dry patches why not show us that?

[@funnychips2005]

I used to watch her videos . that's basically how she does her "March favourites or whatever" its like a salesperson lmao

I think what the "I was burned before" part was about Two Faced and Ofra situations. Two Faced left her to the wayside with her payment of the collabe with her eyeshadow and made the product cheaper and I don't know what happened with the Ofra, but she had to drop the brand because they were being very problematic with how they handled heavy topics.

@@carolinatorres7575 That sounds about right from what Nikki was explaining. I know it was really hard for her to talk about when she finally brought it up. I'm rather proud that NikkiTutorials did something she wanted to do on her own terms and picked products to produce that she had been looking for within Make up for a long time. She's also being more cautious with things compared to Jacklyn Hill at the beginning. So hopefully the success of this may give her more confidence that she can be a good business person and push out the toxicity out of the Make up world.

It's very hard to determine if mica is ethically sourced, I know huge conglomerates are pushing for it but the thing is that mica in India from illegal mining activities get blended it with legal mining of mica. So you have no idea, even ethically sourced mica could have a mixture of mica collected from child labour in it. The only way around it is smaller initiatives on the ground that get you 100% ethically sourced mica.

A good basic (and cheap) moisturizer can also be a good ''primer'' for your makeup. Anyone can find one. There are serums out there that give you the glow, but actually have beneficial ingredients for specific skin concerns in them. There are TONS of eyecreams out there that work well with concealer. So justifying this new brand by saying that it's more skin prep doesn't mesh with me. It's just marketing for IMO not so special skincare products. Interestingly, I think you were way easier on her than on Hyram. Of course, to each their own and I wish Nikki all the best with her line, because it seems she really put a lot of effort in it.

I agree VERY strongly. I really don't think this made all that much sense or was all that necessary.

Hello 👋 how are you doing

[@mischievousamoeba]

I'm team eye cream. I don't always like to use actives or heavier products on my face during the day, but I do like to target my eye area day and night. I just use a different product for my immediate under eye, 11s and outer corner towards my temple. I don't always use eye specific cream, just a different type of product. I mostly use the heavier expensive minis Im always getting as eye cream, like the Amore, SK-II etc. I have so many of them and they last forever as eye cream.

[@lindatannock]

I'd never use anything except eye cream for my eyes! Anything else is far too heavy for the immediate eye area, and it makes my eyes sting. When I sold skincare I was taught that the skin on your immediate eye area was like tissue paper, and the skin on your face like regular paper. Heavy creams are no good for your eyes, plus I find my eyes get all puffy and swollen the next morning too!

[@mirinaxo1663]

Unfortunately I think on first impressions it looks cheap/gimmicky and I’m not sure if I’d purchase but I’m up for learning more since I haven’t looked into it too much 🤷🏼‍♀️ I don’t understand the fragrance thing because if you want to help cater to fragrance sensitive people, there shouldn’t be any in it.

It's a makeup prep line not a skincare targeted to sensitive skin people.

oyasumi that’s the whole point though. the fact that these are products for makeup prep and not a skincare line targeted toward a specific skin concern like acne, redness, or hyperpigmentation, etc means many people with MULTIPLE different skin types and concerns are going to be using these products and they should be as all-encompassing as possible. people with normal skin that isn’t sensitive aren’t the only ones that wear makeup. for that reason her products should be able to appeal to as many skin types as possible and by including fragrance she’s completely ostracizing a group of people that are irritated by it.

[@chrisgonzales4420]

I liked her launch, the one thing I noticed isn't taught too much is preparing skin for makeup. We teach a lot a night routine or a removal routine but most times we skip prepping it, and by the time we are taught about skincare in general, our skin has taken a beating. Especially us men, I'm a more masculine man and barely gotten into skin care about 4 years ago when I was 26. I also learned about light coverage makeup that men use.

[@leftalone9881]

I love eye cream for the sensorial experience, and it helps me be intentional about more sensitive parts of my face. I’m guilty of slapping on a moisturizer and calling it a day- really uneven application, missing some parts, etc. a thick eye cream as a separate step gets me to go slower and be gentler. I’ve got combination sensitive skin, so some parts of my face like my eye area really needs more care. It’s like a “hydrating spot treatment” where the lighter moisturizers won’t cut it.

Dermatographia! I didn’t realize it had a name. When I was in high school in the 90s my friends just said I was “hypercolored” - for the youngsters: back then UV-sensitive color-changing shirts were all the rage and they were branded as “hypercolor” 😂 All my life people have been asking me if I’m OK because I almost always have red streaks on my neck. No. I just touched my skin. No need to worry 😂 I’m gratified to know other people have the same issue (sorry!) and that it has a name.

feels like the kind of skincare thats specific to making makeuplook good. for example, using certain serums and oils that make my skin feel good, but makeup slips on top is a struggle. this seems like less skincare and more makeup prep skincare and i might be sold on it not gonna lie. as long as its advertised as such.

[@rocketmansdaughter5613]

I feel like this is authentic and I'm actually encouraged by the fact that it's being marketed as 'makeup prep' more so than skin care. As you said, while it has some decent ingredients, it is definitely not designed to solve a specific skin care concern. When I watched her original launch video, I was impressed by the fact that she is doing it without investors or a large beauty company behind her, so she can basically do what she wants - she is her own shareholder! That kind of autonomy is a beautiful thing, and I think it may allow her to ultimately have a good line of quality products. Whether those products detour into skin care in the future or stay in the makeup prep lane will be an interesting journey to watch unfold! Would LOVE for you to review some of these on your channel when they launch!

I wouldn't say she has the highest integrity in life in general, she lied about being trans for years and didn't tell her fiance until after they were engaged when she was threatened with blackmail.

Hello 👋 how are you doing

[@zy510]

The vibe I get is that this line is authentic and isn't just another celebrity skincare line. If it was just a cash grab she wouldn't have put her own money in it and would have partnered with investors. But she didn't because it didn't feel right for her and that shows that shows her intuitiveness. That takes guts because it's a BIG risk. Also it seems a lot of thought went into the products and the design packaging to create unique and useful products. I'm interested in purchasing (especially that gorgeous serum!) but like with all skincare launches, I like to wait until others have tried them so I can check the reviews first.

[@ArchieCarnall]

She didn’t say it treats hayfever, she said relieves eyes from hayfever. I suffer really badly from it, and a cooling stick would definitely help. It wouldn’t stop symptoms, but sometimes my eyes are burning, or extremely dry and irritated. Something cooling would definitely help. I sometimes use a cold flannel over my eyes.

[@nairdadri]

Cassandra... 1.7 fl oz is not 30ml. 1 fl oz equals 30ml. 1.7 fl oz equals 50ml. 1 ml is approximately 30 drops, though this can change depending on the size of the dropper. You made the mistake around 19:15-19:30, and that was the 2nd time. Math is hard, love you anyway.

[@jojoking4186]

I am happy for Nikki to have her own brand and with her own money (!! Brave step), but she acted like she saw the products for the first time (but maybe due to her excitement) and not knowing/reading off a paper, what key ingredients do for the skin, let's me question her deep involvement in the makeup/skincare line. I like the unique chrome blue astetic, though.

[@chelseacd]

I thought the same at first, but I much prefer someone making sure you’re getting the correct info about the right ingredient on an international launch video than winging it and trying to backtrack like J Hill.

[@PawsitivelyQuestionable]

It's really interesting how different perspectives can be, I was much more comfortable with her reading it out rather than just saying it because it means whatever information she's saying has mostly likely been verified by actual experts rather than someone who's more of a hobbyist

I know who Nikkie is but I don't watch her. Only saw her here and there when I used to occasionally watch James Charles (now I don't). Not that interested in makeup you see. Anyways, I checked Nimya's website and the thing I like most is how there are concise instructions on how to throw away each part of the product's packaging. As someone who tends to get confused if I should throw the top in the general waste or put it for the plastic recycling, I really appreciated the tiny detail. The moisturizer seems fun and I'd be down to try it if I could buy it and I personally wish the best for Nikkie's brand. Speaking of which, Mad About Skin's had launched his skincare products. I'd like to see a review on those.
