- I bought a skincare fridge and completely regret it. Here's my full review and everything I wish I knew before buying, including how much noise it makes.
The fridge in my video is 10L size and was thinking one from Amazon www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B095JKFTP...

can i have urs?
I bought one! But I was not planning on having it in my bedroom, since I do my skincare in my restroom I was planning on having it there, and if I can sleep with my dog barking all night long, I probably won’t even hear the fridge lol 😂, the one I bought does not have a mirror, I think just put what you will use and load it as you go…..I feel all this negative reasons really do have a solution….just my opinion
I would LOVE to put this in my bathroom, I actually think that would be a great solution for me. But we don’t have plugs in UK bathrooms so I couldn’t do it. And yes if you can sleep through barking dogs you’ll be fine! I can’t sleep through a single meow 😂xx
@@Jaymfs You don't have outlets in UK bathrooms?! How the heck do you use a blowdryer? 🙈I Germany we have outlets in the bathroom but they are covered with a flap. We need them for our blowdryers and washing machines and all 😅
@@Jano1998 Yeah we can have shaver outlets (2 pin outlet) at the most. Unfortunately, we don't have 3 pin outlets in bathrooms, I use my hairdryer in my room rather than the bathroom. It's never occurred to me that this was a weird thing aha.
Same LOL this girl was so negative about the mini fridge.. like duh, if you put the fridge on the floor you won’t be able to use the mirror without hurting your back. 😆 I honestly don’t use my mini fridge mirror, I use my big restroom mirror.
@@meenal1139 we have sometimes both but mostly just normal outlets that are covered. Many germans have their washing machines in the bathroom as well. We do that for example. And I for instance have a HomePod mini in there as well.
I appreciate your transparency. I hesitated to buy a minifridge because I already have a big one. You literally convinced me to buy a fridge storage bin for the products and call it a day. Thank you so much ❤
You are so welcome! Glad to have saved you the money 😂
When you use mask just fill it as needed. You don't have to put it all in there. If you use your products it won't be so full all the time.
Thanks for the info. I was deciding what fridge to buy and your demo on the noise convinced me to buy a small bar fridge instead. I can put my skin care in there along with drinks and stuff. I'm totally loving the feeling of using cold skin care. Especially now we are headed into summer.
Just wanted to say not only thank you for sharing your opinion on this fridge but for also responding to everyone and in such a humble way!! Some comments about it being put elsewhere are just silly to me. I’d actually want mine in my bedroom and not bathroom as I wouldn’t want the condensation from my showers to affect the fridge itself, nor would I want it to take up so much room in something already small enough. Maybe when I’m rich af haha. Thanks again girl, keep doing you! :)
Thank you for such a lovely comment! I feel seen 😂 I’d only want one in my bedroom too. Even if I had plugs in the bathroom I probably don’t have a good space for it in there either. We can get matching bathroom beauty fridge set ups when we’re rich and live in mansions, but for now the kitchen fridge will do 😂 xx
Haha yes I definitely agree! However, it’s different for everyone because my sink has a lot of room on the side so I can easily just place it there. It depends honestly.
I bought the factory mini fridge and I agree they are not silent. Although mine is one my desk below my loft bed I can still faintly hear it. I am not a light sleeper so it doesn’t wake me up but I can see your point. The one I bought is very spacious and aesthetic but still don’t fit very much. Thank you for spreading awareness of flaws of these fridges so people don’t make the same e mistake.
Thank you for liking the video and understanding why I made it! These fridges definitely aren’t for everyone, even if they are absolutely adorable lol xx
THis was very helpful in my research for fridges thanks!! :)
You are very welcome! 💖
I just bought a regular portable mini fridge. It has a handle on top so I can keep it plugged in the kitchen and carry it to the bathroom.
But I got it so my perfumes don't make my foods smell funny
I got a 10 L cooluli fridge 2 years ago it lasted about 1 year. The original fan sound I didn't mind. However it got louder 2 months before it died on me. The aesthetic of the skin care in the fridge makes me want to purchase one again and hopefully it lasts longer this time. Skin care is more pleasant and enjoyable cold even though most products work better when warm on the skin. Cooling eyepatches, sheet masks and tools are fun refrigerated, and vitamin C. The aesthetic of the fridge has me going down a rabbit hole again and I am ready to buy another(:
If you find one that’s silent please tell me 😂 I’m still sad I couldn’t get on with mine
@@Jaymfs 😃 I just got a mint colored facetory fridge. Hope this one is quieter also. I’ll lyk. Also I Love your informative video!!🦋💕
@@miav2046 I love how quickly you cracked and ordered another one 😂 and yes I would love an update! Xx
I have a Cooluli 10L too. Works great and no noise. Had it over 2 years.
Lol as someone who is a light sleeper and hates noise fans and fridges are the only noises I’m ok with 😂 they tune out my roommates who stay up late
Very informative video. I was literally about to place the min fridge in my cart, and something told me to go to UA-cam. Thank you!
Glad I could help! xx
I love your opinion on the noisy mini fridge! For me, though the noise wouldn’t bother me because we have a very loud fan in the living room that is on at night so I can hear it from my bedroom and it sounds exactly like your mini fridge fan so I wouldn’t even notice it
Mine is not loud at all. I love mine.
I appreciate your video about the refrigerator, I decided to buy one after researching a lot of brands, the refrigerator is not noisy, but the down side is why they don’t have a led light inside the refrigerator. Other than that it’s okay.
do you experience whirring noise in your fridge too? i have a brand new baseus 13L pink fridge and its makes low whirring noise quite irritating at night
I was actually planning to get one for my dorm. They won't allow a mini fridge because there's already a fridge in common area but a lot of people steal from there. So I planned on buying this for storing my medicines and drinks and smoothies and berries. Any recommendation on what I should do?
i was trying to figure out if its only mine that is this noisy, because no one ever mention it and there is no other place i can keep it than my bedroom, but just no... i cannot do it. thank you for mentioning it and showing it so i feel less crazy now! mine is going to be returned as well!
I cant remember who did it but there is a video on what products you should or shouldn't put in the fridge (no oils, water based products mainly)... I got the little fridgedare (sp?) which is smaller than that one but I only put what needs to be in there (retinol, gel eye care) and what I plan on using that day (mask, tool). Mine doesnt make a noise because it's very low power but you really don't want it to get too cold anyway.
I get these are your reasons and there for valid but as someone else said there are other options in fridges.
I have 2 bathrooms... Upstairs I use at night so my night care (exfoliants/retinol) goes in my mini and my morning care (vit c, sunscreen) goes in my regular fridge downstairs.
Thank you for sharing!
I think if I could put one in the bathroom that would be the perfect solution. But in the uk we don’t have plug sockets in the bathroom 😩 I looked at the fridgedare ones! I may see if there’s anywhere in london that I can see one in person rather then online so I can hear it before buying. Honestly would have loved to make this fridge work for me but it just didn’t. Thank you for commenting btw! 💓
Do you have water leaks on the outside of the fridge at the bottom ?
You just saved me from an unnecessary purchase, thank you so much, because you proved my doubts 🥳
Thanks very much for this video, I was considering buying a skincare fridge but was primarily afraid of noise because I am a light sleeper and hate noises in my bedroom. Now I know that it would bother me :)
Thank you so much for a lovely comment! I’m glad this video helped you ❤️
So glad I came across this. Saving my money! Thank you!
You’re so welcome 💗
Ohh my dear thank you very much , I was going to buy a small fridge for my room but after I saw your video I changed my mind Thank you
I got one for free at work and I’m wondering what to use it for. But I still found this helpful
I agree with the fact that the fridge is quite noisy I have one like it and it makes noise when I sleep but it doesn’t keep me up the mask compartment for mine it can fit 5 and seems to work well the only thing I will say is mine is sooooo small and it can’t fit all my skincare in it which is quite disappointing but other than that I love mine
yes!! im getting one for my bday and im scared these problems will happen to me :(
obviously all skincare fridges are different, but the one i want is a little expensive, and i hope when i get it i can see why.
i have done some research and most of its pretty good?. but the internet doesn’t tell the truth always so fingers crossed it is !
Thank you for your opinion. It’s been very helpfull. I want a mini fridge for my bedroom, for sodacans and a few sheetmasks. And I think I’ll be able to buy one suited for me. I see how you couldn’t fit all the sheetmasks in the door. It’s the shelves, they are not indented like a regular fridge. So if you were to remove the lower shelf it would be fine with the sheetmasks, yet you lose a shelf.
Atm I have everything in my regular fridge and I barely use my sheetmasks from in there. So yeahhhh….. minifridge it is
Could it make less noise with a different fridge?
I have a 4l beauty fridge it’s fits all my skincare and some snacks 😭. Not all products go in the mini fridge as well as my fridge is quiet it isn’t silent but it’s definitely not loud like urs.
What brand fridge did you buy? Also what tiny snacks are you storing looool I was hoping to fit a mini bottle of wine in mine 😂
Hey, I’m thinking of getting one for my bedroom. Since it’s been like 3 months what do you think of yours and what brand is it???
I’ve been through 3 skincare fridges in 4 years! I’m done they do not last. Buy a regular small refrigerator like a 1.1 liter or 1.5 liter and call it a day. Skincare fridges are ripoffs!
Same here! I bought one, but couldn’t stand the noise! 😔
I’m glad I found this video. I just moved in with a family friend and Im an esthetician. The area we live in is super hot and the ac isn’t the best. I was thinking of getting one of these to store my glues in for lashes. Maybe I’ll look into getting a real mini fridge and not a skin care one
I got a great deal on one so I bought it. It love it - it’s so convenient & my vitamin c & organic products should last longer.
Glad you’re having a great experience with yours! Xx
I use minds for contacts, mascara ect things that dry out fast.
This kinda reminds me of the LED white digital clock I've been seeing on TikTok. I actually got it because it was so cute! Everyone was saying it dims. But it barely dims. I like to sleep in pitch darkness and it was like a neon sign. Luckily, it had a space to put one of them clock batteries inside so it can remember the time. And i just unplug it at night and turn it back on when I wake up. 😅
I almost bought that too! I would be turning mine off at night too 😂 I’m a silence and pure darkness kind of sleeper
what's the life span of this mini fridge? mine identical to yours died after 1 year and 3 months.
THE BEST REVIEW!!!!
Thank you! 💗
Well I’m glad none of this matters to me. I actually not buying it for make up but a cream that I need to use in the bathroom that must be refrigerated so don’t need any sheep masks. Lol I would never keep it in my bedroom anyway so that’s not a problem. I don’t allow these things near my bed because of the EMFs. But thanks for the video
It looks great as long as it doesn’t catch on fire
Thanks babe, I was planning to buy one...
Ty for actually explaining 😂
Thank you so much! I just spent $6 for 2 plastic bins for my big fridge . Awesome! 👏 ❤😍
We love a $6 bargain! 🥳💖
Were did you buy it
My face roller is in the freezer feels great in the summer after you get home from work great cool down after being in the sun most of the day
This is such a good idea! I'm going to move my one to the freezer right now
hi, when you put your skincare in the freezer it cans actually be very damaging to your skin so just keep that in mind :)
I was taking about a face roller not skin care who puts skin care in the freezer
@@joycecrowley1732 I meant to say face filler sorry, it is damaging to put your face roller that’s been in The freezer in your face
Roller
If get one I will most likely unplug it at night if mine is loud also when I was younger I used to sleep with a sound machine (white noise) so I think I would be ok it would use it
My first one that I bought was kinda noisy 🤣 but I didn't have it in my bedroom but in my bathroom. I ended up giving it to my youngest daughter. I was giving a mini pink fridge that is not loud at all so that's what's in my bathroom now. Then I got a new black one with the LED Light/mirror but that one is in my Glamroom and it's not noisy at all. So bottom line no issue here in my end. Lol 😂
Glad you’ve had a better experience! I wish I had a glam room lol and I wish we had plugs in the bathroom in the UK, but that doesn’t exist here
I had a 4L mini fridge that someone bought me as a present back when I worked in an office. I pulled it out of storage and plugged it in and.... way too loud for the bedroom. I put it in the master bathroom and.... probably ok sound-wise... but it fits almost nothing. So I went to look on Amazon. I knew right away a mirror on the front was a gimmick because I'm not going ever bend down to use that mirror. Same with a light on the front. I knew I wanted something 10L or 15L, but judging by the measurements that's going to take up all of the usable counter space. Ugh. So then I watched some videos about skincare products and realized the 4 or 5 things I would want to keep cold will fit in the fridge I have. Problem solved, no money spent.
7:36 lol you know if that pink bottle lid wasn't facing outwards that many sheet masks may still work to shut the door
can u give the link to the box?
Could you review black girl sun screen i dont know if they sell it in the uk but if its available in the uk i would like to know your views on it
I will have a look for it!
My mom just bought me one today so now what do I do
can you put makeup in it or dust skincare ?
@Jaymfs I totally understand your point of view. I was living in UK and in USA, USA is louder than UK even at night, because of air conditioning, fans and, heaters I just can't sleep because of that but people there is use to it. Most people that uploaded videos of mini fridges are from USA and your fridge just sound like everything in USA, so I understand that people don't really care about it. But Im with you, I just hate that kind of noises.
This explains so much! I didn’t even think about noise pollution being worse in the USA, but it is the land of aircon so this makes sense 😂
I have the flawless skincare fridge and it doesn’t make that much noise at all
can you tell me the name of fride please?
I have one it only arrived today but I’m using in for food not skin care it’s really quiet and has a night time setting which is even quiter
oooo which brand did you get that has a night time switch?!
The noise is the number one dealbreaker for me
Same I just couldn’t get past it
Couldn’t you get a mini fridge, not the beauty ones, i got one called Personal Chiller mini fridge, it has only 1 shelf, but it has a side door. It doesn’t make any sound, you can get then led light one that’s writable on the door. It chills, basically cooler than your room temperature,if your house temperature is 75 f then it chills from 43 to -43, the heat settings i dont usually use, its a flip switch so there’s no dial from 1-7 just a switch but it chills very well.
I will look into this! Thank you!
@@Jaymfs np🙂
Where did u get the mini fridge from I am really looking for one and all I want in there is food and snacks so yeah
I got it on Amazon x
Try Walmart but they have so many styles and prices
My products will not be going in my regular kitchen fridge no way!
Ok well now you know. I hope you find the perfect fridge for you 💓
Why is this video sooo interesting 🧐 I can not stop watching it
Thank you!
I got a skin fridge and I’m a light sleeper but the one I got is sooo quite I can’t here it unless my ear is right next to it
Which brand did you buy it from?
@@JaymfsHey do u keep ur sunscreen into the frigde ?
I was wondering is the fridge noisier then an xbox one ? 😂 i do have my console in the same room and it doesn’t bother me i just want to know if it is as loud as that
I personally don’t want to keep the skincare products in my food fridge because sometimes it smells like food and i just don’t want everything to smell like food when i put them on my face
Just bought one for $12 on a huge sale in the video it was silent so I’m hoping it isn’t a huge disappointment
Totally not the target audience for this, but am in the middle of researching a beauty fridge for my partner's b'day, so am going through a bunch of vids like this. I know next to nothing about skincare products, but apparently the reason you don't want to use an actual fridge is that it's *too* cold, and can cause the products to breakdown or expire early.
This depends on the product! Some are not suited for a fridge, whilst others like retinol need to be stored in the fridge. It’s best to check your products before refrigerated them. Good luck finding the perfect gift for your partner! 💗
I find it rly necessary the fact that you made this video… The fridge is good for some and not for others! Here’s my case:
Currently I live in a small city in RJ-Brazil, where the seasons have a fairly well defined climate, so I just feel to store products inside a fridge during the Summer! Now I’ll be coming back to the Metropolitan region of the state (for uni), so I’ll probably have to store them in the fridge for a longer period of the year… Many livings in RJ are surrounded (not completely, but still a good part) by trees and so is the apartment I’ll live in (not to mention it’s in the opposite direction of where the sun usually shines lol), which makes it okay for me to simply store my night products in my room (which doesn’t tend to overheat)! My morning ones I feel like I need to store on top of my sink, bc the apartment isn’t small and I get easily irritated during the early morning ahah… I’m not rich, so I would have to manage my morning “anger issues”, but I found a 8L mini fridge for R$320 (currently around 51,22 pounds) and tbh that sounds like a good deal! There’s a door between my room and my bathroom (and I’m a “deep sleeper”), so not sure if the noise will be a problem for me… Also, during the day I don’t mind putting it on my room (without turning it on) to save some electric bill money! I can simply move it to my sink before going to sleep (since my goal is to optimize my morning routine)!!
Sorry for the long comment lol… Hope my opinion helps somebody!
‘The fridge is good for some and not for others’ there it is, that’s the reason I made this video. I think it’s so good to share all opinions as we all have different needs, thank you for sharing your view too! I hope it helps people who are deciding xx
@@Jaymfs well said!
Honestly speaking I like the noise 🤣🤣 i have a mini fridge but not for make up and it makes a noise kinda like a fish tank I think it's a relaxing sound my regular fridge doesn't make noise unless you hold it open to long
6 pack fits perfectly!
Not if it’s tall cans 😂
Hi! I know I’m a bit late but I want to share with you my opinion to help you out because I think you have got the wrong fridge. First of all I have the Stylpro beauty fridge in my bedroom for 7 months now and it’s absolutely amazing. I am not a heavy sleeper at all and this little fridge has noise reduction that allows it to have the slightest noise that I personally don’t even hear. It works well even though I put literally everything inside (I shouldn’t be doing this😅) and even though its quite small it’s such a great quality! Aaaand it has the perfect cold and warm temperature for anything you put inside! Aaaand it makes your products cold or warm in 10 minutes maximum!! Anyway that’s all.. I wanted to tell you my experience because this mini fridge is definitely worth every single penny❤
Thank you so much for sharing! I hadn’t heard of this brand and will defo check them out. Glad you had a better skincare fridge experience then me 😂💗
Does your fridge leak water on the Outside of the fridge at the bottom ?
i got mine 2 years ago it died on me today the noise wasn’t the problem it was about how much i could fit in it’s bulky yet small
Bulky yet small is the perfect explanation of these
try a cooluli fridge it is amazing
a few people have said this! I'm tempted lol
My skincare fridge is a flawless one and it’s pretty quite
Thank you for sharing so others know a good one to buy! x
I have the new fridgidare mini fridge and its absolutely quiet (silent)
Thank you for sharing!
Really? Mine I can't even hear and it's right next to my bed. I was just going to use my regular fridge but doing my research learned regular kitchen fridges are colder and can cause your skincare to get hard or separate. Skincare fridges are not as cold.
Yours is smaller than mine also. Id go crazy with yours too. 😂 Hope your new method is working well for you. ❤
Lol how can you assume that you can fill the dooro pocket and the fridge with close?! Like its obvioua that part of it goes inside de fridge just saying...
Same way you can fill the door of a regular fridge and it closes?
I've been doing research about the fridge, and nobody mentioned on a video any water leakage, but it's something always mentioned on the comments. Does anyone has one and do you have that problem? TIA ♥️
I didn’t have mine long enough to truly test leakage, but it did get moist in there! I imagine I would have had to clean it out often if I kept it xx
I appreciate you taking the time to give an honest review and I don’t mean to be a hater, but I honestly could not hear any noise when you kept flipping the refrigerator on and off. Maybe it’s just the volume on my tablet but I didn’t hear any noticeable difference. Second of all, when it comes to the size, you should always pay attention to the dimensions and not just how many liters. And by dimensions, I mean the inside dimensions, not the outside.
At the end of the day I think your opinion is valid and that you are trying to share your personal experience.
I got the Jessica Simpson fridge. It’s in my bathroom and Honestly it is very quiet.
I wish we had plugs in our bathrooms here so I could do this
Thank you!
I don’t know which brand you got or if the product was defective cz mine is quiet af. The rest of the review just sounds nitpicky tbh
It’s a video all about my regrets I don’t know what else you expected? 😂
I ended up using mine as a mini fridge litterally I just put like cokes and candy in there as a mid night snack yk ?
I bought one and i regret buying it , its noisey it runs very hot .its more like and igloo than anything .I'm scared it burn my house down
I have a completely silent mini fridge
Which one is urs? Please share❤
I have one but i used food in mines because u dont have to actually put makeup in their
I had to put headphones on to get what you where talking about. I only heard you turning the device on and off. I couldnt hear anything until the headphones.
Which one do you have
It’s linked in the description of this video xx
@@Jaymfs ok thank you
Had this for a year and a month and stopped working both inside and in the car would not recommend this brand
I'm about to receive mine in few hours and stumbled upon this video, for a second i feared that it won't do its purpose, which is cooling the products, but that wasn't why u regretted so I'm glad 😭😭 but thanks for sharing ur experience 🌸
The cooling is absolutely fine so you’ll be good 😂 xx
I put all my gel moisturizers and sheet mask in the fridge in the summer time why cant pepole put their skin care in the regular fridge
We were trying to be cute loool. I loved the idea of a skincare fridge, mostly for the aesthetics, but now I know better
My fridge is all the way downstairs no way!
Maybe you got a bad fridge? My one works perfectly fine but It was extremely expensive
hi! which one did you get?
@@urgirlammy you’re under an awful lot of comments for someone who didn’t like my video 😂
@@Jaymfs i’m looking at lots of skincare fridge videos to see recommendations from people
It gives that nice white noise sound tho
Some are louder than others mine is quiet
Which one did you get?
Mine is making a buzzing sound😢
That’s annoying!
Ok... I was expecting to see some real reason why not to buy it. But all i got was some privileged girl trying to explain how she can't sleep with nearly inaudible noice, cant bend down or keep the fridge higher and cant hoard it up like crazy.... Lady its a mini fridge why u hoarding up 1 million things in it...
How is it hoarding when I could barely fit anything in? 😂 also returning things because they don’t suite your personal needs isn’t privileged behaviour, it’s common sense. I know what I wanted and this didn’t do it for me, and that’s ok! I shared this video so others who had the same requirements as me would know better before purchasing. Thank you for the engagement on my video though 💓
Not a good choice coz of the noise?
Bestie watch the video 😂 it’s all about the reasons why I didn’t like it
Not all of them are loud!!
Please recommend ones they are not because clearly mine is 😂
So what if there noisy? Have it in ur bedroom and turn it off ffs! What a dumb reason ? Keep it on during the day and when ur about to sleep in sure it will stay cold with the material
Or just return it because it doesn’t suit my needs instead of finding a way to settle? The dumb thing to do would be keeping it tbh
@@Jaymfs did you buy it online or from in store ? if in store u should of checked the noise lol. But also is it right next to the bed or other side of the room and still loud lol.
@@5part4 I got it on Amazon, and it was across the room. Also fyi it’s not good to turn fridges off and on constantly. They get moist and leaky inside if you do this
@@Jaymfs but that would be with a big size fridge. I've got mine. I keep it on for a hour and it makes my cans super cold. Then I turn it off and they all stay nice and cool. Saving power on the fridge and no noise during the night lol
@@Jaymfs and not any moist or leaky stuff happening u cute woman lol
I’ve purchased 2 (different brands) neither lasted. Waste of money.
Girl This is the fridge you bought others are silent and you dont have to use the mirror stop being negativ
talking about why a product isnt for me is not being negative? Were allowed to not like things we buy. Glad to hear other fridges are better though x
mine is 3.7 litres
Is only your opinion right
Yeah this whole video is just my opinion and experience xx
Brilliant 👏
