Reading these comments made my soul hurt. People saying "pre wash them and run it thru tons of cycles". Girl.... If I'm paying $150 for something that should clean my brushes I'm not pre washing those bitches. Seems like it takes less time doing it by hand.
PLEASE do an updated Oily Skin Makeup Must-Haves or your Current Oily Skin Favorites! With summer and music festivals coming up ya girl needs it, especially in 90 degree weather 😭😓😭😓😭
+Holly Peterson Haha yeah that is true. I guess I just want more of her opinion on which products I should actually go out and buy, like the ones she swears by.
Hey Casey! First, we just want to say that we appreciate your honest feedback. We are huge fanatics of your videos and love what you bring to the beauty community. We love the feedback we get from makeup influecers and makeup enthusiasts because we're always looking forward to improving our product and our users experience. We're sorry you did not have a positive experience with the Lilumia device. However, the Step 2 process ( prep your brushes ) is very important and has a HUGE impact on on your results. Skipping this step often results in brushes not getting cleaned properly. If you do not prep, in the same way that you load a dish in the dishwasher with lasagna and it doesn't get clean, the same will happen with your brushes. We've noticed quite a few people skip this step, and see similar results as yourself--esp. if it's been awhile since their brushes were last washed. Second, it's important to use warm water as that helps break down the makeup debris. Lastly, we do have a safety mechanism in place to discourage people from flattening brushes which then stops the device. Large brushes will work but because they're heavier, it is important to make sure theyre not pushed too far down. Thank you so much for your feedback. We will use this feedback to improve our user experience, our products and the attachments we create for deeper cleanings.
+Lilumia Fair enough that she skipped a step and did not get the proper results. BUT, as a consumer, I know that if I'm paying $150 for a device to clean my brushes, I expect it to do the entire job for me. I'd want to toss them in as is and the machine to do the work.
Your product is 150$ though, and to be honest it looks like it was... manufactured and assembled on a budget. I'm not trying to be rude here, but the device doesn't seem very user friendly, especially if you get the directions off of a video? That, combined with the fact that you have to pre-wash your brushes to be washed, really makes it seem like the $150 price tag is kind of outrageous. Can you explain why this machine is $150? The components and motor are pretty basic parts, I'm just trying to see how the pricing is justified.
I really love the concept of this product but likewise if I was to spend $150 on a product I wouldn't want to prep the brush and I also think the brush should be dry and ready for use once complete. Good product all the same though!
This is why you're one of my favourite UA-camrs. Anything you try, makeup or tools it's a raw first impression instead of always having perfectly put first impressions. Your videos come out real and not perfectly set up.
I'm LOVING these Test it Out Thursdays! Such a cool & unique idea, and it gives me new ideas on things I would have never thought of! Definitely keep them coming!!
Casey I know this is irrelevant but your workouts have been working and can see drastic differences every week and You've inspired me to start setting goals and reaching them!
Casey! The very first time I used mine I had the same outcome. Then I read on their insta that the first time you cleanse your face brushes (anything denser really) you will have to do it multiple times but once you start cleansing them on a consistent basis with the lilumia it is amazing! Don't give up yet!
Please try the StylPro brush cleaning system! Wayne Goss tried it and it cleans AND DRIES brushes in 30 sec! Well it cleans and dries one brush at a time but 30 sec each is amazing!
+Jennifer Lee unfortunately they still don't :( they said due to high rates of shipping to the US it still isn't possible, but they plan on working to fix it 😊
Yea in the time it took you to figure all that out I could have washed all my brushes. Seems like too much of a hassle. But love this series Casey !! It's helping figure out what's worth the splurge and what's not
+Haloskeeper1 I agree, I saw this product was out for the while during December and watched other youtube tried it and most of them say is a fail product!
I actually love how frequently you are uploading lately it's amazing!!! I'm really not sure about this device it's seems like more work to me honestly I'd return it! 🙈
Casey, you have so quickly become my top beauty lady!! My fiancé and I love your vlogs with Davis as well! I really trust your opinion as well, unlike some other beauty gurus out there.... Thanks so much for introducing me to the Benfit matte rescue!!!!!! I LOVE IT!!!
I kind of wondered about this product as well! 🤔 I remember when Nikki Tutorials got hers, but she never really did a full update on it. Definitely looks like washing by hand would be better. Thanks for trying this out! 😊💕
Love the video! I have been thinking about buying one for the past few months but I thought it was a lot of money. I was so exited when I saw that you were doing a video over it! I am so disappointed that it didn't work. Thanks so much for testing it out to let us know how it works!
You have to also make sure your brushes are really in the water. And after you do the cleansing cycle, you can choose to just do the rinse cycle to make sure all the soap is off of them. I think you should give this another try. Don't just throw something so expensive away because it didn't work the first time you tried it. Things don't always work out the first time Casey. Please try it again! I'm sure you can get used to it! ❤️❤️
I'm loving the makeup you're wearing in this look 😍😍😍 hopefully tutorial soon! And ahhh I wish this cleaner would've worked because I need something that will do all the dirty work for me because cleaning brushes can be so annoying sometimes 😭
Thank you for this! I've been looking at this on Instagram since they started marketing it last year. I hate hate hate washing my brushes but I didn't want to drop the money on this until I saw someone else use it first lol I appreciate you taking one for the team
Thank you so much for your honesty. It sucks that it didn't workout. I really had high hopes for it because in theory it would really save a lot of time.
seriously so glad you tried this out!!! I thought this sounded so cool and was thinking about buying it!! Definitely going to pass on it now!! Thanks girl!!
Bless your heart! I was really rooting for you girl! Haha. There is another electronic brush cleaner called Brush Pearl, I've heard they work amazing! 😊
Initially I was wondering how its was going to get down in there and deep clean the brushes. I wish there was a way that the plate that cleans the brushes could move up in down to really get in there!
So many you tubers or gurus raving over this product. While you do the test on camera and actually show how much this product sucks!!! Thank you for this! Xo
Way too much work and effort involved into making it wash your brushes. I could have washed all of those brushes so much better and quicker using my Sigma glove. Doesn't seem like its worth the money. Thanks for the video demo doll, I was actually eyeballing this for a while and I am so glad I didn't purchase it!
Reading these comments made my soul hurt. People saying "pre wash them and run it thru tons of cycles". Girl.... If I'm paying $150 for something that should clean my brushes I'm not pre washing those bitches. Seems like it takes less time doing it by hand.
Love "test it out Thursday's" 💜💜💜💜💜

+Alex Camacho She literally just posted a makeup tutorial for hot days like two days ago... lol
+Holly Peterson Haha yeah that is true. I guess I just want more of her opinion on which products I should actually go out and buy, like the ones she swears by.
Please do more first impression trying out new products videos! Thanks!
FINALLY!!! An HONEST review! You're the best Casey!

This is what I was going to say as well. It's like putting you dishes in the dishwasher without removing the excess crap

If you pay $150 you shouldn't have to pre wash first.

Casey, I'd love to see you review the StylPro Makeup Brush Cleaner. It looks amazing! It's supposed to wash and dry your brushes in 10 seconds.
Makeup/eyeshadow tutorial on the look u worn in the video please?!! It's beautiful!
I'll just stick with dawn dish soap and extra virgin olive oil. save me $150 😂😂
LOL!! Realist shit I've seen today 🙌🏽
+Vanessa Blanco 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Lol, no kidding!!

Your makeup on this beauty is AMAZINGGGG

+Casey Holmes I just checked and they do ship to the US. You should definitely do a review on it!
+Jennifer Lee unfortunately they still don't :( they said due to high rates of shipping to the US it still isn't possible, but they plan on working to fix it 😊
I tried looking this one up but can't find it?
Jolene Vuong

Should I push Casey Holmes?
Keep this comment at an even number of likes
+Pushing Guy no! wtf
I know I may sound like a fetus but what's pushing?
+Nattie * Your reasoning is because you're a fetus & my reasoning is because I'm too old!! lol Either way I guess we're both out of the loop 😕 lol
i like how you just immediately trusted that marc jacobs brush with the device lol
This reminded me of trying to figure out complicated 90s toys as a kid LOL 😂 loved it
I love how much versitality you have added to your chanel. love your tutorials but it's fun to see other stuff too!
