soooo, what do you guys think? 🤔 i wanted to add on one more point as im reviewing this: i should have waited for them to get back to me (or highly possibly leaving me on read again lmao) before sending all my details. part of me really wants to delete the 1 particular DM message with all my sensitive information and the other part of me says no. regardless, this was definitely an eye-opening experience and moving forward, regardless of how ✨dreamy✨ it sounds like to work with whatever brand, my honesty, morals and integrity are NUMBER ONE ☝i'll only work with brands that align with my beliefs and work ethics. this brand can put me on the blacklist for all i care because honestly, they damaged my trust as a PAYING customer + burnt this bridge with me. just wanted to be completely transparent with yall and thank you as always for your constant support 🤍

[@ASMRmakeupnraindrops]

Hi! Thanks for sharing!! Good job on standing up for yourself and asking for what you deserve! That’s so lame the brand was not treating you with respect and ghosting you. Seems like basic professionalism isn’t there

[@Samantha-bf9rj]

definitely super shady of them to have the communication strictly through Instagram DMs (and flatout ignoring your requests lol), and keep the details intentionally vague to try and take advantage of you. i can only imagine how icky this felt and understand why its put you off the brand -- thank you for this spicy tea 🫖

[@itskrystle]

yes!! I was like "yall are obviously doing selective reading" 🤔 by the time it hit the "I'm only gonna answer 1 question of yours" part I hope you found this video insightful! (or juicy... whichever haha! 😂✨️)

[@FablihaBushra]

By the process of elimination, I'm guessing its olens. Not a makeup brand but that's my best guess, and also because girlie didn't link them. And she ALWAYS links all of the products she has used. So that's my best guess. But i could be very very wrong haha

[@itskrystle]

😉

[@shouji2355]

You were being kind and polite to the brand❤😊 Love want you are doing!

[@itskrystle]

thank you, I really gave them alot of face 🙃🤧

[@houdy5675]

good that you stood up for yourself until the end. it's okay, got other better opportunities for you

[@itskrystle]

fingers crossed! thank you for your encouragement 🥹🫶🏻

[@lorenaml]

this brands approach was soo unprofessional, your reviews are really good! I hope you have a good week

[@itskrystle]

very! I genuinely did not expect this level of unprofessionalism from such a huge brand 🤧😵‍💫 edit: also thank you! actually vacationing in Japan right this moment! 🫶🏻

[@sagewisdom09]

I’m sorry you had such a bad experience. I hate hearing about companies being disrespectful to smaller creators, and it definitely makes me want to stop buying their products. I suspect it’s Lilybyred, as I’ve heard stories about sketchy things they’ve done.

[@itskrystle]

we live and learn 🥲 don't wanna get myself into legal trouble but like, I highly suggest looking into the description box. I usually link everything there ✨️✨️✨️ and no, it's not lilybyred BUT GIRL, tell me the tea pls 👀

[@kimebina2586]

Hehe , I think ik what brand ur talking about … I also saw the other content creators story on what happened to her . I’m too invested in Kbeauty and their creators … 😭. P.S I admire how you treated this situation. Very professional.

[@itskrystle]

if you know, you know 😉 thank you, not to toot my own horn but I put in lots of thought into creating my videos 📝 when brands try to "buy" my trust over a $20 makeup/skincare product I'm like "ha ha nice try"

[@fareeha-d1l]

Is it torriden ?? You used the lip treatment but i don't see it linked in description

[@cottonhxney]

i think you’re right 👀 and she said in another comment reply that someone in the comments got it right… and she probably can’t reply directly to you to confirm but usually krystle is good about replying to every comment 👀🍵

[@naurrr]

I think you're right too omg

[@itskrystle]

oops okay, I genuinely forgot to link the torriden lip balm 🥲😅 haha! no it's not torriden, and yes, someone *did* get it right.

[@shiningclown69]

Not me scouring through all the products in the description for the tea..Is it the brand that made your browcara? 💀💀

[@itskrystle]

hmm, I usually leave links to *everything* that is on my face 👀 that's my only hint!

[@whygualu]

Is it etude or dasique???? 🤔🫣

[@itskrystle]

nope!

[@ElleNaturally]

Oooo girl ☕️🫖🍵

[@itskrystle]

served piping hot ☕️💨

[@adevyish]

Oof that is so shady and especially for such a big brand!

[@itskrystle]

truly ☕️

[@silv3r_t3ar]

omg is it clio?

[@itskrystle]

fortunately, no!🥳

[@jjjt7966]

Unprofessional & shady of them. Saw some pink colour on the brand's logo. Random guess is Et**e, Am*** Paci***. Just guessing lol!!

[@itskrystle]

oh no no, it's not any of those brands. my hint? check the description box, I usually link everything over there 😌✨️

[@dion8723]

I feel like it's peripera 👀 oh no

[@itskrystle]

nope! my suggestion is to check the description box 👀

[@uNiQuE2301]

I have a feeling it's 3CE >

[@itskrystle]

fortunately, no! 🎉

[@uNiQuE2301]

@@itskrystle oh no it's prob mac then >

[@St4nn3rr]

Highly unprofessional and disappointing on their side - it's always better so stat things ✨ krystle clear ✨ 😂

[@itskrystle]

oh deeeefinitely 😎😂🫶🏻

[@aiquinn]

I've been waiting for this 🫣 Edit: i so wanted to know who the brand was. Can you give us a hint? Like, what does it rhyme with? 😅 It's so weird and unprofessional that they wanted to discuss all of this over DM's. Like wtf. I'm glad you realised how shady they are and decided not to work with them. They thought they could get away with taking advantage of you just because you're a smaller creator

[@itskrystle]

my hint is: check the description box, I *usually* link everything there 😉

[@aiquinn]

​@@itskrystle it's too cool for school, isn't it?

[@itskrystle]

@@aiquinn mmm no, someone actually managed to get it right 🤔👀
