    Not me being years late, but I just have to say-- Although I dislike Shein, I really appreciate you being realistic and non-judgemental about the fact that some people can't afford more expensive makeup. If SheGlam is what is within someone's budget, they should not be made to feel bad about it.

      My issue with Shein clothing isn’t simply that it’s cheap (quality) or fast fashion (bad for the environment), but that they blatantly steal (intellectual property) from other brands. I assume that the Shein makeup line does the same thing.

      You are a very beautiful man, and your makeup is always flawless, no matter what brand you wear.
      Whenever I want to relax and watch a very experienced MUA, I start binging your videos to learn honest, and expert reviews and just listen to your calm, soothing voice.
      I’m starting to wear makeup again to look better with mature skin, and techniques and makeup have come a long way past previously known brands. Avon, Revlon, Maybeline, are all better formulated, and up to date to this generation.
      There’s also more comparable brands being sold that are equal, or better that dupes the really expensive ones, and saves you money.
      I’ve discovered LA Colors, NYX, ELF, and some others that works very well with my skin tone (fair warm, light = redhead Scottish-Irish) but I’m relearning how to apply it well from your lessons.
      Thank you so much for your videos, and makeup recommendations! ❤❤

    Shitty brand aside, I always commend you as well as James that you mention that affordability is relative because as you said, even affordable makeup (or skincare) can be one of two things some people are able to buy in a month. Even something cheap turning out broken or being shit for some people can mean wasted money that could be put in something more significant, and all they wanted is to treat themselves.

    I think Sheglam definitely watched your video. I discovered and ordered from them a few months back and they packaged and shipped everything out like it was medical samples. They discontinued the cigarette plastic wrap for card-based boxes, shipped everything in an sturdy black box, and all my palettes came encased in custom fitted styrofoam blocks for each palette to ensure quality control of the eye shadows and to add additional padding for other smaller products inside during transit. The only downfall I've noticed personally is that some of their shadows seem to have just a little bit of fallout, but the pigments are full coverage and you get so much product for way you pay for. Super amazing brand if you have kids or younger siblings that are just getting into makeup! My kid sister steals my palettes all the time lol

    Ok, Robert I just opened my box from Shein. I must say, they took your advice. My palate was packed inside of styrofoam. It was inside of a box filled with soft items, but it looks like if it were an order of just makeup, the styrofoam is standard. Well, the foundation is amazing. I am shocked at the color match, and the formula. I have purchased the lippies and eye pencils before, but never went into any real makeup. Your video had me interested in going for more. When you continued to say "I'm confused", I now understand why. I have purchased the same item from other brands and spent a lot more. I am impressed. Thanks for the review.

One being an eyeshadow palette that arrived in an envelope. No padding. Each shadow smashed to oblivion. In my excitement I sat down on my bed and opened the envelope and was immediately covered in eyeshadow dust. All over my quilt and my dress clothes.

    Honestly, now that this video is older and Sheglam has their own site now. I took a dive and bought a few items from them, and it seems they have improved their quality. The eyeshadow goes on smooth, super pigmented, the shimmers are more shimmery and less large glitter particles(I got the cosmic collection and it has this purple dual chrome and it's gorgeous)
    Their grip primer has become my favorite primer next to the nyx one.
    The eyeliner is super creamy and long lasting on my waterline.
    And the packaging all came in Styrofoam over the boxes, in the actual like box it came in, so they definitely improved the safety of their delivery system

    The thing about the price is that because the manufacturers and labs are in China (Home country of Shein) it costs them way less than western brands producing making makeup with the same labs and manufacturers so these palettes would be 10 to 12 dollars in the US instead of 5 dollars. People often forget that China still produces many makeup for other brands. They have the knowledge and the ressources but I would say be aware of the ingredients.

    I loved your comments in the beginning about the packaging being “disrespectful”. That is SUCH a good way to describe it!
    We all understand that this is a budget friendly brand. No one is expecting a luxury experience. However, this is coming all the way from overseas, and very simple protective elements like paper shreds (or even packing peanuts) can make a huge difference without adding much extra cost. The brand can be cost effective without being CHEAP. Tossing it all in a poly mailer without any protective filler is not “affordable”, it’s “cheap” and not a cute look.

    I swear by their eyeshadow pallettes! I’ve never spent much money on eyeshadow so I’m only used to drugstore but they are by far some of my favourite eyeshadows ever. I’ve just placed an order for this foundation, I really like the eyebrow pencil too! I have one of their lipsticks too that has the coolest packaging where you press a button and it pops out to open it x

    i love how chill you are about everything. you always find the bright side and make the best of situations, even when it’s possibly a shit show. your videos make me happy. the products in this video surprised me. the only makeup related product i’ve heard anything was a while ago about a particular bomb mascara they supposedly had. i’m actually interested in a few of these and i’m still dying to get the primark brushes!!! 🖤
