Morally Gray: The ethics of DUPES

I tried the brand MCoBeauty, a brand know for their "dupes." But some of these products look like straight up copies of high end brands!! I discuss the ethics of these kinds of dupes. I have opinions!

I purchased all of these products with my own money.

It's a difficult topic! I recently listened to the Beautiful & Bothered podcast about McoBeauty. One thing that was interesting they said is that slot of the brands they dupe arnt available to ship to Australia. I think that's great for them to get similar products available to them... Butttt I also feel like Mco could just make good products that aren't exact packaging copies! I'm quite conflicted on the topic !

Exactly!! Its wonderful that they make quality products, especially for products that aren't available in Australia. But I think they could switch up the packaging and it would still do great! I genuinely enjoyed everything I used, and have continued to use them since filming!
