These brands are *overrated* + brands that are underrated or worth the hype!

[@JanelleTheKid]

That Charlotte Tilbury comment of rolling their eyes is spot on. I feel the same with CT and Natasha Denona

[@CJAmara]

Agreed. I will never watch a review of Natasha Denona products because I just don’t think there are deserving of the hype KZbinrs give them. And at this point, I think it’s only KZbinrs sustaining Natasha Denona. I don’t think I know one person who doesn’t watch KZbin that has a ND product

[@amandak7334]

Same! ND reviews drive me nuts and products, are not great for the price.

[@yan7655]

I personally enjoy Natasha denona's formula, but I'm not a fan of her colour stories in her larger pallets. I usually just stick with their mini pallets

[@gasparinha]

I would add L.A. Girl as an underrated brand. They have been under the radar for years, and their eyeshadow formula is fantastic! I do love Flower Beauty - just repurchased my favorite lipstick (Petal Pout in Cinnamon Crush!) - but I noticed their website is shut down right now. Hopefully they're just retooling the site! 😟 Rebrands make me nervous...

[@christinas4]

I heard rebranding!

[@drpri1836]

The concealer is a staple to those who cannot get shapetape, (too expensive), and elf camo concealer (gets sold out so fast). But their eye primer, eyeshadows are meh.... (I'm saying as a perspective to my country, demands vary according to country)

[@dana395]

Charlotte Tilbury's products have gotten so expensive in a short amount of time. When I started buying it 7ish years ago, the lipsticks were about $22 and the quads $40. Other brands have gone up but not at level of increase.

[@LexieDeWitt1]

@@CobraDove1111 Exactly! You're so right!!

[@Carriedeeznutz]

Right! I remember around 6 years ago I was having trouble finding CT products in the US (in reality I just didn’t know you could buy makeup from places that weren’t Sephora, Ulta, or the drugstore 🤦🏻‍♀️) so I would send money to my (now) ex, who lived in London, to buy products and bring them over when he came to visit. Kinda funny that I’d go to all that trouble in 2016, but now I refuse to pay their inflated prices

[@aprilsilvers381]

Her quads are 58

[@hs2874]

Definitely overpriced. $86 AUD for a quad is nuts. This is 10% more than I paid for Modern Renaissance five years ago, and that’s a much bigger palette than these quads. I think the price tag is part of their marketing, it’s meant to make you feel like you’re buying a luxury product. But at the end of the day, with the conservative colours of CT, you can get the same look easily with drugstore stuff and nobody would know what’s on your eye. When I started learning guitar, I discovered that experienced guitarists can make a cheap guitar sound like a professional one. It’s probably the same with makeup users.

[@kerricoakley1788]

I think Makeup by Mario is overrated. The new eyeshadow palette is $68 for a very neutral palette, and all the influencers have bought it and are like “this is amazing!” It’s a neutral palette!! I saw one video by Morgan Turner, and she was like “it’s nice, but you can get the same loon from Colourpop That’s Taupe”, and I was like THANK YOU!!!

[@alevsahin1428]

I'm a sucker for neutrals and don't wear colorful shadows so it's perfect for me, BUT the price is insane! And there is way too much similar light mattes, and very few shimmers. I feel like 15€ palettes from k-beauty can do the same job and even better cause they do neutrals and sparkles the best!

[@lindsayhoffman2688]

I would add Natasha Denona to overhyped brands. She’s not known for literally ANYTHING but eyeshadows and I’ve noticed her gondola getting smaller and moving farther back in my Sephora. I think her brand is in trouble and is only popular on You Tube at this point. Everything is on sale right now and there seems to be a phasing out of many products.

It’s good she’s putting things on sale. Her items are so overpriced it’s dumb. I can find a better quality palette for a way lower price.

I would agree. Her prices are ridiculously high... And not because she's a one to two person brand who can't source packaging or ingredients in a less expensive way.

Not rooting for it and I love her eyeshadows as well, but I own 3 minis, the midi Glam and the Biba and don’t see myself buying any more any time soon as I only wear neutrals. The average consumer who isn’t a YT’er doesn’t buy all the releases as they’re very expensive.

Colourpop has such a wide range that nobody is going to like all of it, but I think all of it is for *some*body. I think they know what they're doing by releasing so much... the mistake would be to try to keep up as if one person is supposed to own/try it all

They need to chill and let the process of buying take control while at the same time keeping an eye on what’s being sold more or less as well as what product category does best.

[@gabi_rofl]

So true!

[@carmendemiguel7056]

I agree. They may not be everybody's taste but I would not say that they are overrated, at all. At least being still such a good priced brand. For example, their eye shadow quality, in my opinion of course and in general as they have so many o them, has nothing to envy Charlotte Tilbury's but then look at the price difference, it is insane! Actually CP seems to have a much more interesting packaging design process behind. That is also taste depending but nobody can say they don't vary or work on design for each of their products.

[@micahsellers8594]

I think colourpop is more for the everyday beauty person rather then the KZbin beauty fanatics. You can go in their website and anyone will find something they’ll like no matter what the category whether it’s lips, eyes, cheeks, etc. I do think they aren’t as affordable as they used to be considering their eyeshadow palettes are up to $24-35 depending on the size

[@LCx829]

I can’t really say anything negative about CP because I buy so much from them. I can usually make everything work that I buy.

[@Chels_123]

I can see how Charlotte Tilbury is overhyped especially because they’re not a brand I’d call diverse when it comes to their products as everything is mostly pink which won’t work for a lot of complexions, however, for myself I love the brand because as a red head I find her products complement me as a whole meaning that literally the entire brand works for me and my complexion and it’s nicely luxurious.

I started using bareMinerals when they were Bare Escentuals. I still prefer their loose products in pots. There were absolutely stunning colors and textures for eyeshadow, eyeliner, blush, highlighter, etc. Dry products in pots don’t go bad, which made the cost very reasonable. Some of the eyeshadows and one blush I had from when they first opened, and they were still good. I’m not nearly as impressed with the products since Shiseido bought them, but I still had a lot of them in my collection. The colors skew more warm than they used to, but that’s my only complaint. I had so many irreplaceable colors, and I’m sad that I lost them.

The soft matte one is a holy grail with combination sensitive skin. I'd love to try Flower beauty, but it's hard to find in my country. A brand I think is slept on is Lethal Cosmetics, in particular their face products. They have gorgeous blushes and highlighters! They never let me down and their range of colours is some of the best out there. They had red before it was a thing and they have an orange shade for any skin tone. Their lilac blush Hybrid is perfection for jellyfish pale beings such as myself 😆👌🏻 Their bronzer/contour options are also there.

I love your nails! Also, I'm planning on getting some flower beauty soon. I've had the liquid blush and those shimmer palettes on my wishlist for awhile now. But! My bf just gave me an Amazon gift card for Christmas and I ordered the Catrice True Skin foundation and the Nyx Bare With Me concealer, thanks to your recommendations. I'm excited to try them. 😊 So far though, I've been impressed with what I've tried that you love.

The top on my Kosas concealer also cracked-and pretty early on.

I'm cackling at the thought of little you Hulking out on your product lids and breaking them.

Thanks for this video. Also…When you get a chance can you compare Rare bronzer with the Fenty that you have? Angelica Nyqvist mentioned Rare bronzer is the best formula she’s ever tried. I know you both are a decade apart in age and live in different climates but I appreciate both of your honest opinions when purchasing quality products. Thanks in advance.

Totally agree on CT and ColourPop!!?

I love the Ulta brand nude color matte eye shadow primer. I have tried others and nothing holds my eye shadow in place for 14 hours like that eye shadow primer.

[@mariep4512]

I agree, it is the best. No creasing and my eyeshadow still looks great before I wash it off at night

[@megang2680]

For me Overhyped: Pat McGrath Deserve the hype: Rare Beauty and Elf Deserve more hype: Smashbox and Iconic London I agree with almost all of your takes though I haven’t been temped to buy or try any REM but love Cloud.

Sephora Collection has some great products that are pretty affordable. I haven't tried a whole lot from them, but I've been impressed with the things I have tried. I really like their matte bronzer, although I think they might have reformulated it from the one I have.

[@Froggyfrog-99]

Rose Inc is also underrated. Those are beautiful products too.

[@marietollett8323]

All year I've wanted to purchase something from Charlotte Tilbury to try the brand for the first time. I came close with the new blush palette (looked gorgeous 😍), but I talked myself out of it once I watched so many negative reviews saying that it was very hard pressed. IMO $75 is too expensive for it not to be a homerun.

[@alexandrrra5627]

I'd say try an airbrush powder, flawless filter or one of the wands. Those IMO are superior, also available in minis! Other products are good, but not mind blowing

[@marietollett8323]

@@alexandrrra5627 thank you for your recommendations! I'll look into these.

[@coolkait68]

I swatched the fenty brown liner on my hand and it literally stayed for days and I had to scrub hard to gwt it off 🙃

[@adelecohen6998]

I bought the Burt’s Bees liquid highlighter that you recommended. I loved but mine also broke. The tip completely separated and im going to have to throw it out! 😢

[@sharlahillis4914]

Your hair!!! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@festussmom6364]

I love your new hair color ! It really shines next to the Charlotte Tilbury logo...💋🧚🏻‍♀️❤️🇺🇸

[@kkouz45]

I’ve never been able to pay CT prices even though I’ve purchased many a high end product. Maybe it’s all the comments/videos like these reporting how overhyped the whole brand is.

[@JillyDreadful]

Have you tried the Flower Beauty concealer? It was my favorite, and I repurchased it twice, but I ran out and I decided to try other concealers and I kind of regret not just repurchasing.

[@mirny1509]

TOTALLY looking forward to the Fenty video. I love Fenty, and I think it deserves the hype it gets.

[@cathryngoll7451]

I keep hearing how great Moira Cosmetics is to use. It is said to be a better, affordable alternative to Colourpop. What are your thoughts? Have you tried Believe Beauty? I am in love with their eyeliners and foundation. The prices cannot be beat and the eye liner reminds me of Clinique's.

Kosas concealer is the new shape tape

[@rachelirisbeauty]

My kosas concealer cap shattered really early on too. I have it taped up, but I think it’s drying out and I’m so sad!
