Why We’re Over Celebrity Skincare: The Ugly Truth About Beauty Overconsumption

[@kristinewinship2065]

I agree, I honestly don't believe these celebrities use these products they're promoting. It's a way to take advantage of their fans to make more money in my opinion.

[@Laurajaneatelier]

I agree

[@ann5765]

I agree. J-lo uses Creme de la Mer.

[@ann5765]

I only buy tried and true brands. I don’t need a celebrity endorsement.

[@its.meg.xoxo1]

same here

[@Laurajaneatelier]

Me too

[@jenjohnson1747]

Same…Ponds and nivea

[@veronicado1016]

Me too ❤

[@stephaniehuthmacher4214]

Wash your face. Drink water. Use a moisturizer complementary to your skin type. Period.

[@Laurajaneatelier]

Definitely

[@CatMom-uw9jl]

And use sunscreen every day.

[@LadyCoyKoi]

Celebrities don't use their own products. They use inexpensive skincare products that are actually effective. Less is more also comes to mind. I use Ponds' cold cream to clean and moisturize the skin. I also use a pearl cream to moisturize as well. I thought I needed scrubs and toners, but nope. A simple wash cloth to scrub and using a baby wipe to wipe off ponds' cold cream are enough. I saved so much doing this.

[@Laurajaneatelier]

Nice I love that

[@psychic644]

@LadyCoyKoi I agree with you! I'm in my 60s I've been a Ponds gal since my early 30s I love it!

[@beccaschlomann7592]

I tried ponds and I really did love how it worked and made my skin feel but the fragrance was sooo perfumy and triggered headaches. I’m a huge fan of Cerave products. They work well, are reasonably priced, and don’t have fragrance.

[@psychic644]

@@beccaschlomann7592 I agree! Cerave is just as great as Ponds but for more sensitive skin! I'm so glad it works for you!

[@iluvpink87]

As a Gen X woman, I grew up on cosmetics and skincare products from drugstores, so I continue to get all of that from there. I generally find beauty products from celebrity brands to be gimmicky and ineffective, and I have always understood that for these celebrities, it's just another business venture to diversify their portfolio. But I admit I love celebrity fragrances (like Britney Spears' perfumes). They can smell so good at affordable prices.

[@psychic644]

Unfortunately, celebrity products are now in drugstores and department stores. They are trying to root out the classic brands that are truly the best on the market. By boycotting the celebrity products, we promote the tried and true classics that work! Thank you, Laura! Great documentary, as always!!!💗💓💞

Thanks for watching!

[@enriccoc7794]

celebrities know the ride is almost over and people are sick of them so they are just milking the last bit they can out of it

[@christinerodriguez3976]

I will never buy a celebrity backed skin care product. They are expensive and sometimes crappy. Nope. And we all know that they get procedures done and their skin has nothing to do with the products they endorse.🙄

[@nicktrotter62]

All the celebs mentioned, with maybe the exception of Rihanna have undergone plastic surgery. Those good looks and taut skin didn’t come from using these products.

[@anyaaa2801]

Rihanna definitely has done something to her face. Again it's VERY very subtle.

[@anyaaa2801]

While i don't believe celebrities really actually use their beauty products, at least Rihanna brought something (even tho it's a little bit expensive) that was really needed to the table: more foundation shades. It was after seeing her success that other brands decided to expand their own foundation shades. I give her a little high five for doing it.

[@Echolyris212]

😮the nostalgia I got from that Elizabeth Taylor White diamonds commercial. They don’t use their own products. Their biggest contributions are their name and their say on what package to execute. All about that $

[@CatMom-uw9jl]

I’ve seen print ads from the 1920s and 30s that also featured society women. “Mrs. Charles Von Snobb, noted hostess and former debutante of the year, uses this face cream.”

[@lalablotz7348]

I love that name Von Snobb 😂you win best comment ❤

[@herrflick1244]

Ponds did this, I have 50s English mags, with aristocracy celebs using Ponds cold cream and vanishing cream. ❤️ Gill, 🇬🇧

[@christinao7392]

Oh my word Laura, when you were imitating Haley ..."look look I'm so glazed dohnut looking"😂😂😂 I just died laughing 😂 I don't buy celebrity brands...I assume they are passe junk with passe names slapped on them. I do, however loooove when you did videos about vintage celebs informing that "Marylin wore this colore or Audry this one" They were wearing actaul tried and true cosmetic brands

[@Laurajaneatelier]

Haha thanks!

[@Rositasparks]

Laura, I love your videos! I can listen to them while I put on my skincare and makeup 💄 ❤ none which are celebrity endorsed 😂

[@Laurajaneatelier]

Awe thank you!

[@analuarca9843]

It's easy money that is why All Of them are here today gone tomorrow.

[@Laurajaneatelier]

Definitely true

[@RebeccaJackson-u1e]

I totally agree with you, celebrities having beauty brands. I generally just buy colours that I like and brands that I like. Ie: Clarins, Charlotte Tilbury, Bobbi Brown, Nars, Mac.Products and brands that have been around for years. Unfortunately I'm a beauty therapist and I've worked with Clarins as a consultant for 10 years and that is what I basically use. Just loved the video ❤❤❤

[@Laurajaneatelier]

Thanks for watching. I like a lot of Clarins products as well

[@ann5765]

@@RebeccaJackson-u1e I use a Clarins milky face wash. Put it on cotton balls and cleanse your face.

[@ann5765]

It is a red carpet of A listers.

[@chloedean3403]

Laura your channel is my favourite! You’ve definitely encouraged me to embrace my natural self and given me the confidence to just love being me ❤thanks so much for your wonderful videos, love from the UK 🇬🇧 ❤

[@Aleena8700]

Im honestly over skincare in general it seems like you "need" a 50 step 600 dollar routine anymore.

[@ann5765]

Laura I look forward to all of your videos. They are so inspiring. ❤

[@3poodlez321]

Less likely. I'll stick with products that are actually good for my skin, and have some real dermatologists in there somewhere during 😊the product development

[@Laurajaneatelier]

Yes I agree!!

[@ChristChickAutistic]

I've always had to watch what I use on my skin, from skincare to makeup, and even things like laundry detergent and perfume. As a result, I don't care about celebrity brands. The only thing I have that is celebrity brands is perfume, and just a couple of those.

[@Laurajaneatelier]

Perfumes are a safer bet because you don’t have to worry about it irritating your skin

[@ChristChickAutistic]

@Laurajaneatelier Exactly.

[@user-iy9ys3nb6l]

Another great video. Also, love your makeup!

[@Laurajaneatelier]

Thank you 💕💕

[@joylindadichamounix]

These celebrities get at least weekly facials that costs $1000s. If they use what they sell, again...they spend $1000s on facials.

[@UffdaKiki]

I refuse to buy from any celebrity brand

[@meredethenglish1577]

I was buying some of the JLo skincare products and Fenty beauty products, and I can honestly say (😒) that I do like some of them. However! As my frustration with "celebrity culture" increased, while using up the products I already have, I have moved away from these items as it comes time to restock

[@UffdaKiki]

​@@meredethenglish1577I only use bioderma, nivea, and ponds. Work great and save money!

[@hurtspublishing3906]

You know the funny thing about it. I own a beauty brand(lifestyle brand) and the same companies that makes most of your faves. Products makes mines. The only difference is... Due to the fact that they got a built in audience. That can up-price it and sell it for $50-$70 while I got to sell mines for $10-$20 . I got to build myself customers up

[@notyou1178]

I think that even “ The Rock “ has a skincare line as well.

[@CelinaDüsing]

He has a hair care line

[@notyou1178]

@ check out his skincare it’s called Papatui by Dwayne Johnson that’s The Rock brand.

[@symdatta4048]

When your skin is better than anyone you’ve ever seen, you gotta take care of yourself. That’s what makes me mad. Yep I’ll see you, and I will be giving my honest testimony. When something sucks it’s sucks. For example, “Rhode skincare” gross.

[@margonaut]

Less is more. I’m old & still look pretty good after 30 years of Dove & Lubriderm 🤷‍♀️

[@cityremade]

Money grab, that’s what it is.

[@lindzj1913]

The only celebrity brand that doesn’t bother me is Rhodes. Cause it does seem she actually has a passion for skincare. Others seems more like buy it cause I’m connected to it type of deal. But I don’t buy any celebrity brand lol I do my own research and buy what’s good for my skin.

[@lesviesblanchescomptent]

Fenty is overrated too

[@margaretgallo914]

I use thayers skin care products. They work perfectly fine for me. Its also affordable.

[@Laurajaneatelier]

I love the toner

[@tokyo_taxi7835]

I don't admire any of these celebrities. I prefer using products which are dermatologist tested and recommended.
