I SWEAR I was being scammed! Testing TEMU Makeup (SO many dupes)

[@vickyslays1450]

Not yall thinking that expensive brands are more “ethical” & dont have the same horrible, unethical conditions as shien, temu, etc..if you want to take that route research every single place youve got your fancy ass makeup, clothes, shoes & purses from, trust me, they are no better..😂

[@barbthegreat586]

The same factory makes products for the likes of Temu and much more expensive brands. Do you really think that on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday the workers work in unsafe conditions 12h per day and are paid peanuts while on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays their working conditions miraculously improve and they work 8 hours per day for a lavish wage? No, it only means that a much more expensive brands skims far greater profit.

[@michellejessica3393]

This is what people don't understand 😂 Everyone is walking around in their Nikes thinking that they're so great bc they don't shop at temu, well guess what? The workers got paid and treated the same but Nike made way more money off them.

Guys if you are in a place financially where you can afford not to shop from Temu, Shein etc. Thats great you dont have to support them or watch videos pretaining to them, but there are students, single parents, people who are going through periods of unemployment and news flash a cost of living crisis in many places ! Everyone knows these shops are not ethical but it's not right to guilt people when it may be all they can afford even if they would like to purchase from smaller business' if they had that option. Although its definitely not right to see other influencers spend hundreds on hauls lets not shame the everyday people who may have no other choice but to rely on these brands for school supplies, everyday clothing, basic home furnishings etc. :/

[@pinkbubblesnake]

This was what I just said elsewhere. If the average person can't afford more then shop where you can. But when it's an influencer and you know it's not like shopping on Temu is giving them any breaks financially, they'll probably chuck out the Temu product and replace it with something more built to last. This is where it feels silly personally.

[@katewoodbr]

I’m not really one to comment on videos, but I literally do so much research (published!) on Chinese based markets. A lot of companies that provide for Shein, Wish and Temu are 1) not ethical, 2) encourage forced, slave and child labour, 3) are incredibly unsanitary!! I completed a study about counterfeit toothpaste. Out of the samples, thousands contained antifreeze and hundreds of people died!!! Make up can contain arsenic, cyanide, faeces and many other incredibly dangerous poisons. Just because your foundation is fine, the next one in the production line could cause great harm. It could literally kill you, cause cancers, make you go blind, chemical burns! Etc!!! Please I beg, do you research and only support companies that are compliant with health and safety standards. The key being, if they are sold in your drug store, they are clinically tested and therefore safe. Please don’t support companies like this.

​@@tisa6193​Exactly it's inevitable. People leave comments about it being unethical and they are being abused, etc. I'm sure she is aware of this by now and there are other websites that have the same issue. She doesn't have to avoid this website because of that reason considering she's wanting to try the particular products out. Unpopular opinion but its her career and her decision. No one can make their own choices now without it being picked apart and problematic. If you don't wanna see it get out of watching the video.

​@@coryannemoen7466 life sucks 🤷. People who don't have a ton of money like me can't afford to worry about tinting bagging up my temu half a world away. The fact that they are overworked is going to happen regardless of if I buy temu or not. And those people working are doing it because they need to make a living too and that's what their options are. What you're griping about has nothing to do with the consumers buying this. It has to do with that country and the way they conduct their own business in their own turf. So maybe you should sponsor some refugees coryanne ? Why don't you send your extra money to them every month and take one off those families out of poverty?

[@cassmacdonald-perfectlyimp2486]

Temu is a marketplace for a lot of Chinese producers on the cheap and there’s so many copies that it can’t be legal. I stopped buying from Shein and Temu because I have ethical and production concerns, especially over human rights. I’ve also heard they aggressively pursue influencers and content creators to try and get collabs. Not trying to put anyone off - everything is your own choice, but that’s my opinion

[@cheezarose]

Although I agree with your sentiment, almost all popular brands are doing exactly the same thing and are just better at hiding it. Only websites like Shein,Temu and AliExpress get the blame even though brands like Adidas for example and many fast fashion and luxury brands are doing exactly the same and don't get has much heat for it.

[@angelajakob1257]

People don't care about human rights as long if it's vegan and affordable it's just fine with the majority.

[@alovegreaterthanlife]

​@@cheezaroseyeah but these companies are doing it to the extreme. Mass production, mass waste the cheaper you do it the less your poorly treated work force gets paid. I tend to not buy from companies now. I'm trying to focus on consuming less but you are right most brands contribute to this. 😢

[@cassmacdonald-perfectlyimp2486]

Completely agree with all of you (and I wasn’t being critical of Steph, because Temu is trending like anything) nor am I overly critical of those who really have to watch their money big time, bc I really, really get it). It’s a really tricky thing to balance out I feel, but I do think companies like Shein and Temu may not be as concerned with their workers’ conditions as bigger, western companies (who I think don’t do enough to check in on their manufacturers). I recently found an outlet where I can access more Essence products and I’m delighted. I also intend to look into companies like wet n wild and Catrice to check their credentials as well - bc I can also access a lot of their products from the notino and just my look websites too. If I can be more ethical, have less nasty ingredients on my skin and spend less that’s what I’m going to do

[@alovegreaterthanlife]

@@cassmacdonald-perfectlyimp2486 to be honest I always think the cheaper something is the more likely someone/something will be exploited. If people need to buy cheap they also need to reduce their consumption as well not just buy lots and lots of cheap things. Temu makes it so easy for people to buy stuff they don't really need. It's also cheap quality which means it doesn't last and needs replacing regularly.

[@alexandrahindley]

I'm 54 and not long ago I got pneumonia which led to Sepsis. I was in a coma and when I came round a week later I was left with scarring on my lungs so I can't work. I live on £210.00 per fortnight and I have to budget everything with that all my bills, tv, etc so this make up is perfect for me as I can't afford a lot. So I'll definitely buy some. Even though I can't get out much when I do I still like to look nice. So thank you for sharing this.

[@onewhisper22005]

Counterfeit is when they’re claiming to be a brand - like it actually says the brand name, packaging, ingredient list, etc. But, if they do the same or similar packaging but put their own brand name on it, then it’s not a counterfeit.

[@ambrr_lily]

Exactly. It's the data gathering a privacy concerns that people are skipping over. They can change their privacy agreement without notification and openly tell you they sell all your data to anyone at all. You give them access to everything on your phone/laptop and there's some evidence they install spyware. This is on top of the use of forced labor and Temu's lack of concern. There's plenty of complaints about shipping delays and products that never arrive. These little what-have-I-got-to-lose sprees might very well cost you more than 50 quid in the end.

I think you’ll find a large amount of your makeup is made in China. There are a lot of reputable labs there. This really isn’t surprising, especially since all the brands you listed (UD excluded) are budget friendly. There is going to be a trade off.

[@sandracarey6383]

The fibro blast pen is around $20. It is just as good and even goes up one number higher in the temperature, as the one I paid $100 for! I’m convinced we are able to get products of all types cheaper because of no middle man. Also free shipping and they are great with returns.

[@GiaBlinks]

To play devil's advocate, mainstream makeup brands have an astronomical markup. There's a reason why celebrities are becoming billionaires off of their makeup companies. L'oreal owns 36 popular brands, they can do drugstore prices (which they're still making a huge profit on), up to high end. How different do you think all of those ingredients are? Sure, we all know about problematic ingredients, but the "good" ingredients are not that revolutionary either. They're just taking advantage of a person wanting to look good. And, many of the largest manufactureing plants are in Asian countries. I'm not saying that TEMU products are equal, I haven't done research on that, but don't be blinded by the fact that cosmetic companies are not that different as a whole. Most of the time you're just paying for better packaging, a name brand, and marketing.

[@Carolina4291]

The problem is so many people were brainwashed thinking that expensive brands are the real deal but they produce their products for less than 10£ and sell it for 50£. So judging TEMU is not the way to go and you should be more informed about the big brands and what they do behind scenes lol

[@steffymuze]

Took me years to realize this and still astounded by it. It's easy to get caught up in but when I ended up with 3 that all look the same (bought very separate of various costs, things really aren't that original. Just rebranded. I used to hoard the stuff, it DOES go bad. Not worth unless you love and actually will use up that $40 lipstick. I only have a few times and it took a year.

There is no way I'll ever buy from Temu or Shein and the like, and I don't know how anyone with a conscience can. Have you ever wondered how they can produce that stuff for so cheap? It's major exploitation of people. Inform yourself people. If you don't care, knock yourself out. Sorry for being a wet blanket.

If you really knew what happens at ALL manufacturing factories across the globe, including the USA, you’d have to boycott every product in your home. I worked in the auto manufacturing industry and the factories are horrible…you should boycott your vehicle. You should probably boycott any hospitals or doctors because they have grueling jobs and work days and day without a day off, and work hours without a break. Boycott any medications you’re taking, because the factories producing your medicines have grueling work practices. Don’t use any cleaning products because I guarantee the factories producing them are horrible. I used to work WEEKS and weeks without a day off, in a factory that was 140° inside. The fans in that factory would be dripping in black sludge and we’d be standing in puddles of coolant from our machines leaking. We’d have to ask to use the restroom because you absolutely could not leave your job site, and sometimes would have to wait an hour just to use the bathroom. We had a 20 minute lunch break in a 16 hour shift, which gave you just enough time to heat your food and shovel it in your mouth as fast as you could. If you want to boycott due to work practices, boycott everything you use! People really have no idea what the manufacturing industry is like across the world 🙄🤦🏻‍♀️

[@suzanneaubin7599]

Making cosmetics is cheap in bulk. The price goes up with advertising, type of packaging, models used. Cut out the high priced models, and insane advertising that ingrains and brainwashes people into buying said product, and you’ve cut the price down to almost half!!!

i hope everyone in the comment section complaining about how temu/shein/etc are unethical know just how many products they use that are manufactured or assembled in chinese facilities. the laptop youre using, the cell phone in your hand, parts of the car you drive. all of those are manufactured in china. i find it hypocritical that y'all are complaining about make up dupes being made unethically when youre using unethically made products all the freaking time. its a product of capitalism and i hate to break it to you but we live in a capitalist society.

The "eyeshadow pallets" that u used is a dupe for an asian brand and the "highlighter" u used us supposed to be glitter on your eyes. The reason that the pallete is more cool toned is because it isn't western. Love ur content🥰

[@AnnaNewjeans-nu2bb]

temu is also a Chinese owned company so their products will be a mix of Asian and western

[@belalugosidead]

I recently learned what the glitter/shimmer in make up comes from and.. wow.. make up isn't that fun anymore. Read about mica and how it's mined by children. All so we can have good highlighters and eyeshadows. Awful.

I just watched a documentary on how unsanitary the manufacturers facilities are. ( plus all the problems everyone else mentioned)

[@nikitatavernitilitvynova]

If you need a legit dupe of luminous silk by Giorgio Armani I can recommend you the skin perfector by Wycon. I tired both. I mean I got a sample once of the luminous silk in an order and I thought it was decent but not impressive considering the price. Expecially as I was testing a foundation at the time which was equally as good if not even better. Except it was a limited edition one so I can't recommend that. But the Wycon one is incredibly impressive in comparison. It has a hydrating formula with aloe vera and rosemary extract and something other too. It doesn't accentuate texture that much and it looks glowy as hell but not oily. Like it has a nice intense natural glow. And it doesn't move on my face. Like wtf? I tried their satin finish or silk finish one and it moves as you smile it's that glowy. It takes a proper second to set. But this one... Makes me regret falling in love for a 19,50 euro foundation. Like it's a lot for me. But it's so incredibly good. The first time I tired it I asked my mom to comment on my skin. And she legit said it was really good looking but didn't mention anything more. I told her I was wearing both foundation and highliter and she didn't notice. And she can tell when I'm all covered in foundation. She has done it many times. Telling me I look ghostly white etc. But that time. She said no word about the foundation I had on. Btw Wycon is an italian makeup brand. I forgot to add it has a medium to full coverage.

[@braininsink]

Such a great review…now you also have to spill on the highlighter!!!

[@nikitatavernitilitvynova]

@@braininsink the highliter I used is now discontinued. It was something like the Charlotte Tilbury flawless filter or Hollywood glow but by essence. Plus let's not talk about that foundation. As today it looked not so good on me and this foundation has a little design flaw. The pump tends to get stuck sometimes on the lid and since it's a squeezy tube packaging it's not screwed in. So the pump got stuck again after travelling and as I tired to open it, foundation flew all over the tablecloth. I was able to salvage most of it. But I had to clean everything which made me late. Good on me for deciding to do a full face for the day before going to do the weekly shopping across town. Also I'm gutted the essence highliter glow glow go is discontinued. Maybe I should try the elf halo glow since it seems to be the same. Oh well at least I have my Wycon Strobe fusion highliter which is also discontinued in my shade. But I've got tons of other makeup and highliters to go through.

I would be interested to find out how the foundation wore if anyone has tried it? It looked beautiful but Steph has gorgeous skin.

[@HotFlushSummer]

The mascara packaging (that looks like a bullet!) is copied from Louboutin! It does make me a bit sad that companies are allowed to copy an entire design concept from another company that could have been years in the making (the most upsetting example of this being the video of the CEO of the comparatively small brand Pink Honey literally crying when the very sketchy Revolution pinched her whole concept and packaging for the little honeypot brow setter.) They can whizz everything through a 3D printer and off you go - I wouldn’t be surprised if copyright laws toughen up a bit on this. I know some people will say they don’t have enough money to buy the original which is fair enough, but companies can make dupes without ripping off the whole concept for the product - if it was any other industry I think there would be legal reprisals. This was a brave and interesting video! 😅

Some of the brands are real if u do the research pudier , focullare and so on alot of things are made in a factory and they just stamp another brand on it its exactly the same product..

[@misssunnydee]

Focallure is actually an extremely popular drugstore brand in some Asian countries. I thought it was Indonesia and the Philippines. But did that research like 7yrs ago, so I forgot the exact countries. But it's legit, and so are Pudier and a few others on Wish that are now sold on Temu. You can even read what's regulated there, with some searching online. I remember being shocked that they were often stricter than the US. They follow the EU in most things and we're the strictest when it comes to ingrediënt regulations.

[@lisapetty3155]

I am so bummed, found out the foundation was discontinued. I absolutely loved the duey appearance it gave your skin. I am 54 with dry skin and its so hard to find an affordable foundation that doesn't look cakey, was hoping I had found my gem.

W7 have a foundation that blows away all the high end ones I’ve tried and I used to work for Estée Lauder so have tried a LOT (as they own a ton of brands). I think the foundation name is something to do with HD or something, if you reply and are interested, I’ll check the bottle for the exact name. It’s only a few dollars, might be a UK brand but is definitely available in the UK and Australia, idk about the USA. Could search online. It’s one of the only foundations that doesn’t settle into my creases or emphasise texture. L’Oréal infallible in the glass bottle is great too, like amazing for a fuller coverage for mature skin. A dupe for EL double wear but even better. Much pricier than W7 tho. If your skin is dry, you need a good moisturiser and skin care routine, no matter how good of a foundation you use. Cerave is a good and affordable skin care brand. Hope this helps.

[@jeannine3750]
