I agree. The complexity of the design adds so many more steps to the manufacturing process *ultimately making it just as (if not more) unsustainable than just using the generic plastic tub*

[@middlemist2224]

@@chastiana In addition to what smarty said, greenwashing is a tactic used by politicians to avoid the complexities behind the actual source of environmental damage. It’s easier to ban a single product (like certain UV filters) than to fix an industry problem. *Lab Muffin* made a video in which she talked about the misconception around chemical sunscreens causing coral reef damage. She pointed out that the coral reefs that suffered damage were no where near beaches where ppl frequent.

[@slozano94]

I really don’t understand the refillable angle with this skincare line. Maybe I just would rather have something not made with so much plastic to begin with. Recycled materials and not creating a skin care line when there’s so many seems like the best solution for the earth.

[@aditi1729]

Yes yes yessss

[@matinsharifi3823]

this is a fair point but also, you'll notice there are a ton of brands who still don't give a crap about sustainability. Like the individually wrapped eye masks, eye masks in general tbh, make up wipes, individually wrapped make up wipes, the non-recyclable pump up moisturizers (like the drunk elephant one) .....etc etc, or products that just have a lot of packaging for absolutely no reason... so i'd take refillable products over that stuff any day. at least the message they are sending is good.

[@middlemist2224]

@MI LO Has anyone heard of refill stations? That would dramatically reduce plastic since it’s in a giant refill tank instead of hundreds of palm sized or travel sized jars. (*The Body Shop* has started doing in a few of their locations)

[@middlemist2224]

@MI LO The Body Shop’s refill station is still in the experimental stage and it’s a risky investment to implement globally. They only started doing this last year in their home country, the UK, and it was just this March that they implemented it in Canada. Big celebrities like Rihanna have the ability to make anything an instant trend. If she had taken the initiative to implement them, then every other big companies would’ve naturally followed to keep up with the trends There are other businesses that do this, but they’re very small and only have one location. Without the support of a major celebrity, it will take a long time for refill stations to become widespread 😭

@@middlemist2224 yes, exactly. she could and should have used her status to implement actual sustainable options.

[@ddddddd9493]

Talking about Rihanna’s Harper’s Bazaar skin care video as “A little bit disingenuous” is so mild and careful like Cassandra is afraid to say it as it is. Because if it was for example Kylie Jenner instead of Rihanna, Cassandra would call it out and addressed it as bullshit, because how dare Kylie put an spf during the night. Same thing with her struggling with packaging and still repeating “no but I really like the concept” like cmon. I’m so tired of Rihanna can do no wrong like she’s above everybody and everything.

[@KJ-wf4pg]

She’s usually more vocal and straight up calling out all the BS. I agree that you can tell from this video she’s holding it in.

[@Miumiu0404]

It's because Rihanna's fans can get really aggressive and hostile. I think those are what these people are the most afraid of.

[@sakasusuk]

okay but TO BE FAIR, Kylie's skincare line was harmful and had harmful ingredients. Including her sunscreen. While Rihanna's one isnt problematic in the 'ingredients' part. Of course its disingenuous. its a freaking marketing tactic, and yes its stupid. But I do understand why Cassandra's "nicer" to Rihanna, the negative aspects isnt as terrible as Kylie's which could literally damage people's skin...

[@nyhauteweek]

@@sakasusuk I agree! She actually seems to like the formulations so I totally understand this reaction versus the one for Kylie skin which is just horrible. And Kylie rips of other brands formulas instead of innovating on their own like kendo is doing with riri

[@mirelism24]

Most influencers were super kind to Rihanna and tbh her line comes across as your average celebrity product. I don't see how Kylie's is so much worse (except for the scrub). It's the same thing but we just like Rihanna and somehow think that her inclusion in marketing/shades of makeup means we can't criticize her. Seems silly and disingenuous to me. There are way better and even cheaper products out there.

[@sirilarsen492]

I LOVE watching her struggle with the packaging, it is so hilarious!

[@pinkimietz3243]

Be honest Cassandra. The packaging is wasteful and a rip of of korean brands. The ingredients are cheap although the price is to high. Why Cassandra? Can Rhianna do no wrong?

[@KAR0519]

What do you mean can Rihanna do no wrong?

[@middlemist2224]

@@KAR0519 The “Can do no wrong” question is a notion that a person can never be accused of committing wrongdoings because of their reputation or good character. In this case, the inquirer is basically telling Cassandra “No matter how likable Rihanna is, it does not change the fact that her brand is greenwashing people and ripping off Korean brands”

[@omarelmasri9939]

The packaging also takes up part of the price

[@JacobMeye]

This looks like an attempt to create less plastic waste, but then why are there so many plastic components. It's the marketing and excess packaging for me.

[@middlemist2224]

Ikr. Why didn’t they just package them in a big pump bottle like CeraVe or Cetaphil? They could’ve even implemented airless pump technology if they were concerned about a big bottle oxidizing.

the refillable aspect is cool but I personally always switch up moisturizers which makes this feature kinda redundant IMO

Hi Cassandra, don’t give shoddy packaging a pass no matter how different or special it looks. User studies should’ve anticipated that the packaging is difficult to open. And don’t insult your ability to open it, the developer should’ve catered to the consumer. Can you imagine someone with a disability dealing with that packaging? Big fail on usability.

I think the container is a very bad idea. Sure, it may reduce a little plastic waste with the replaceable cartridges, but the downside is that the complex design would add too many steps to the manufacturing process. *This, making it even more unsustainable than the generic plastic tub.* (Think about the sheer number of parts that have to be made). I wish Fenty Beauty ditched packaging altogether and just set up refill stations so that people could just bring their own jars. *The Body Shop* is already doing in some of their locations

[@conniehwood]

So what is the purpose of the refillable aspect like how much are you going to save it still has to come to you in something so it’s not package free or anything so how is that important (unless the refillable packages are made of something special to recycle)

Do you want the product to be delivered to you and held by magic until you use it? Google is free, their website is free so why the rhetorical, non-issue question?

[@conniehwood]

@ I feel like it is still something important to discuss in a video meant to discuss the product especially since she kept saying it was refillable but not saying much else on the topic. If all else refillable packaging is still a waste most times so that was all.

[@Miumiu0404]

The idea is the refillable plastic containers use less plastic and energy to create and ship. Than making an all new whole packaging and shipping them in stores and customers. They've been doing this in Japan for a long time already. The idea of Fenty's sustainable packaging is great but they just really need to execute it properly. They should take notes from Japanese drug store brands like Hada Labo.

[@conniehwood]

@@Miumiu0404 Yea I have seen some of those where it is a lot less of the container when you buy the refill but this seems like it is still so much packaging that it wouldn't make a super large difference because of how much plastic is still being used.

[@Miumiu0404]

@@conniehwood You're right. The plastic waste wouldn't make a huge difference. But this isn't just about the plastic wastes alone. It's also about the carbon footprint created from manufacturing and distributing plastic products. And any small carbon waste we can prevent is worth it.

[@barbarawoodall4835]

It’s really quite easy to open. When you pop up the ‘half lid’ to get to the spatula, you then use the half lid (still in the pop up position) to turn & open the jar. It provides a big easy handle to open the product if your hands are wet or slippery.

[@annyvitoria2662]

Thanks for The tips. Best KZbinr 👏🏼👍🏽🤩

[@lucyg4532]

The packaging is sustainable if customers like the product. Buying the refills saves plastic over time but if it doesn’t work for your skin it actually ends up being more wasteful than typical packaging because they use so much plastic for the holding jar. My concern would be that Rihana has so many fans who will buy it just to support her then find it doesn’t suit their skin type and they won’t rebuy so it’ll end up wasting plastic.

[@chrissymoss514]

I really don't like this at all! A double layered, plastic packaged product, is NOT being sustainable. How are the refills packaged? Also, $40 is NOT reasonable! $36 for a refill, ok. So, the packaging is worth $4?????? Really? The refills ought to be $25 - $30. Let's talk about that stupid half open lid. At some point of using this, the plastic scoop (yep, more plastic to end up God knows where) is going to be absolutely useless (it can't turn corners). Then the design faults appear. You're going to HAVE to remove the lid to gain access to the product, which is on the opposite side of the useless, half moon, opening. No thank you, I'll continue to use the competitively priced, South Korean products. Excellent ingredients, well formulated and very effective.

Me and my severe arthritis will pass on this, packaging not very inclusive. They claim to be "cruelty free"(the term itself has no legal meaning) but refuse to provide details.about their status. Also this does not seem really "refillable", you still have to purchase the part with the cream and as you know yourself packaging is the most expensive part of skincare - so this just means that they are able to profit even more per sale of the "refill". Oh and don't forget preventing people with sensitivities to use it due to the fragrance ... not inclusive, neither is the price point for something made mainly from one of the cheapest raw ingredients.

watching you trying to open this hurts, haha! their products are nicely described and very well presented on their website. the packaging itself is actually very thought out. the spatula works well for hygiene purposes and helps a lot for those with longer nails. to pop out the spatula you just press down on one side of it and it should come out right away. i also like how the spatula is not separate and can be stored because with most creams you just eventually lose it. the flip of the lid that covers the spatula can be left open and can work sort of as handle while you twist everything open. it’s much easier to open it that way rather than twisting at it from the middle, especially if you have other skincare on your hands that make it all too slippery. i personally love both the packaging and the product, works very well with my oily skin :-)

Elf Holy Hydration has similar ingredients, plus peptides, and is £12. Also there's a fragrance free version

I’ve been using Fenty skin and it actually makes me glow (I was using Clinique before). The night cream lasts a long time. But watching your videos I might try some new items when my Fenty skin run out! I’m sure my skin could be even better. Have you done a video on TrophySkin Microdermabrasion MD machine? I stopped breaking out once I started using it. (Maybe bc I wasn’t cleansing my skin right 😂) Thanks 😊

Ridiculously overpriced while doing the bare minimum

[@Shana113]

This has nothing to do with this video but could you do a best drugstore/affordable cleanser video for all skin types? I love you and your informed videos.

If you have nightlife or nightshift work. Or exposed to blue light or bright lighting during the night hours, I use suncreen. Are the package directions online or in the box?

@Cassandra Bankson I really need some advice. Yesterday I had a treatment with some kind of esthetician that I bought some products from and he gave me a harder treatment with glycolic acid that burned a lot. My skin was burning most of the time and was painful every time he touched it or put other stuff on it, but told me it would stop over time. Today I contacted him since I have redness, pain and scabs apart from pain doing some normal movements; and he said that the skin needs to renew itself, that it is part of the process. Is it really or did he actually do it wrong?

Glycerin, niacinamide,panthenol are all great ingredients.Sounds like nice day moisturiser

[@suhanisharma4094]

Hey Cassandra.... Lots of love ❤❤❤

[@Leigh-Stella]

I have oily acne prone skin and it’s also sensitive so I have to be very careful what my skin can handle if has fragrance in it. I like what she is doing with component & it’s less waste. But honestly I will probably just stick to my elf moisturizer that has the same amount of product but only $14 CA Plus it has no fragrance.

[@beccachukwu7100]

😂😂😂 the struggle and confusion with the packaging

[@tojin]

Honestly I was prepared to hear biased criticisms but good surprise that Cassandra gave 'fair' review to Fenty. Helpful and informative.

[@113016ify]

Do you feel like this would be better suited for someone who has dry skin o use in the winter. Or would it be best to use n the summer for people with dry skin??

[@tenifajones]

It's so hard for me to believe there were no instructions...read the instructions!!

[@marinasamuels9304]

I’ve just dumped so much of my skin care because I realized the company tests on animals I’m so glad fenty is cruelty free and I love this channel

[@nazarethricalday2981]

hey Cassandra, I want to ask if you can do a video on how to treat closed comedones. thanks stay safe

[@dolapoadesina8492]

For the fenty whipped oil butta drop, can it be used as a face moisturizer

[@annyvitoria2662]

Rocked this Look,hair and makeup

[@Purple_haired_cleric]

When you were "installing" the moisturizer, it reminded me of someone who was struggling to build a piece of Ikea furniture 😂

[@Imberley]

I’m so glad watching you rumble through this because I did the SAME EXACT things. Sooooo much hassle from this product.

[@BeInspired247]

Ordered it!
