    I'm so sensitive and I started to cry.. almost.. I love to watching your videos and I'm so glad when I found your channel. I don't know how I say this but.. my mom lives in Turkey and I miss him so much. When I found your channel I was shocked because I think you are like my mom and I can discuss with you about our favorite things.. I don't have friends on real life and when I watch UA-cam this is like I discussed with my friends. I don't know if this make sense and my English is not so good but I hope you understand what I tried to say here. I love your personality and truthful, don't change it 💜 I hope you have a wonderful weekend! Hug's! 🤗

    Hi My Friend, Again, I absolutely applaud your integrity and the fact you are standing by your principles. I think the main thing that I have felt lately with Revolution, is the same shadows being brought out in new palettes. I received an email this morning from Revolution, announcing two new palettes, but they are almost identical to a palette I purchased from them about six months ago. Being on a budget and having a channel that promotes bargain products, I want a variation of products in my collection, not the same products in different packaging.
    Thank you for you honesty Samantha
    Big Hugs...Bella xxx🌸🌸🌸🌸

      It’s interesting that you both feel this way now. I wonder if Revolution’s greed will prove to be their downfall. Their client base (us!) has always been so loyal, but we’re not idiots and exploitation is exploitation!

    regarding the drinking flask - not so long ago, it would be Makeup revolution who were the bargain finds of the week, and undercut others for their customers - how times change.

    @Butterflywingsteacup 5 років тому +4

    Revolution was so good back in the day because it was good for the price you were paying, but now it's too much money for the same quality and that is not acceptable if you want to charge me the double for something it should be because the quality is two times better. I love how sincere you are!

    Samantha, it doesn’t matter to me what you review. I watch your channel because of YOU. I really enjoy having someone my own age that I can relate to and that is so down to earth. I wish you the best on your new direction and can’t wait to see what you have for us next.

    To show you how long, I been watching your channel, back in the day. When you would be videoing in your living room, I alway look forward to the next one, there been a few makeup palette that you have demonstrated, apart from Revolution, that I manage to purchase just by watching you. I feel, as a mature person you had the platform, for that age group which was not the same, as the company wanted to promote. On a upward 💄💅🏽👠👏🏼👏🏼

    Hello Samantha,
    I started following you due to one Revolution pallette you talked about last year.
    Now, only a year after, I feel oversaturazed with all the very similar new products Revolution had released, even that all the products of Revolution you mentioned are not available on my country (that bottle for example)
    I think is very brave from you to tell how you feel, that is the same than mayority of us.

  • @PatsyCollyer
    @PatsyCollyer 5 років тому +5

    I have to agree about the Revolution water bottles. That seemed as though they were cynically jumping on an eco-friendly bandwagon just to make a swift buck (or 15!) I’ve thought for a long time that they’ve just been regurgitating the same products over and over and OVER (how many highlighters?!) in different packaging. They used to be so innovative. Don’t get me wrong, I do really like - and use - a lot of their products, but I’ve been disappointed by more than I’ve been pleased with. However, it always used to be that I could afford to suck up the mistakes, but now that prices are creeping up - and product sizes scaling down - I’m going to have to be far more careful in future. I know that video would have been difficult for you to post, given how you have advocated so vociferously for them in the past, but I admire you for standing by your principles and morals. 💖

    Hey Samantha, I'm afraid it's capitalism at its finest, I remember laughing at a boutique recently they had a necklace there €50.00. I took a few pictures of it on my phone because I have the exact necklace at home that I got it on Aliexpress for €5 .I've come across so many of these instances that I challenge myself to get something cheaper,that's exactly the same. We are being ripped off right left and centre, as the old saying goes "At least Dick Turpin wore a mask".... Honestly, having the latest iPhone, water carrier, eye make up doesn't make anyone a better or nicer person, maybe if some of us feel that way we need to try and figure out the "why",????,they seem to be so damn important, I'm sure it would be a revelation and an awakening......oh and just a heads up these water bottles come into Aldi from time to time €5 in some EU countries possibly cheaper in UK and Germany.

    Hi Samantha!
    Loving the introduction of homeware on your channel. Two of my favourite things, makeup and homeware.
    It's so easy for someone to make derogatory remarks in a type written form, I doubt very much that they would do such a thing in person. It costs nothing to be kind, and I was always taught, that if you have nothing good to say! Say nothing at all.
    Have a lovely weekend! 💟

    Hello Samantha
    Love this video,
    I really like the rose gold flask I cannot believe the price tag of it,
    I personally think the Revolution one is a bit over priced
    I agree with others on her who say people who know you know it wasn’t anything to do not getting a pallet and o can say it’s the brands loss and o for one would have been proud to own it because we have seen how hard you have you worked to get your channel and to reach your subscribers,
    It is really good to see how you are changing your channel as well,
    You are a lovely person keep up the good work you are doing
    Have a great weekend xx

    I was so happy when I found your channel.
    I cant thank you enough for all your videos.
    I love your videos,you have a magnificent perspective in the makeup industry. I appreciate all your tutorials .
    I have purchased from the lowest to the highest priced Cosmetics, and realize quality comes at all price points.
    Revolution has changed for me,price and quality, I am happy with so many brands,I think if I am going to buy Revolution and they are raising their prices I think they need to raise their quality.
    I also wish they would use cardboard not plastic,I think it's better for the environment.
    I really really love ELF,products,BH Cosmetics and colourpop,for a lower end choice.
    All the best to you
    Sending love from NYC

    Hi Hun... See this is why your channel is my go to channel.... Your honesty and transparency 💕. I got an email today about two new palettes in the forever flawless range, they look almost identical to one's they brought out in the reloaded range, which I haven't purchased either, I love the 4 forever flawless palettes I got in the 1st release , but I'm looking for things that will work hard for my money give me variety and choice, at the moment I'm not feeling that from revolution palettes.
    I am However interested in the new hydrating conceal & define concealer, as the original one was far too drying for me, Like I said when your first video went out I've been cherry picking products for awhile now not just from revolution but all "drugstore" brands. I'm looking at what I've got are there any gaps that I need an item for or not.
    I actually got into a Kiko store 🎉 for the first time and picked up two velvet matte lipsticks and I LOVE them, I got 307 fuchsia and 330 coral I'm totally obsessed with them 😍
    Yet again Hun a fabulous video, don't change you.... Just keep doing exactly what's right for you I certainly love watching 😘😘

    That is so funny Samantha. I picked up 4 of the noodle dusters last week. They make cleaning each room so quick and as you say the removable cover is great for washing. I love that colour but I decided to get the grey instead. So excited to see your new videos. I love that you will be doing lots of different brands. Have a lovely weekend ❤️ xx

    Hi samantha,fab video once again! Loved hearing about the bargains with provision at homebargains! Love provision tried them at Christmas and thought wow! I only used my all matte provision palette yesterday for the 1st time in ages! Have the sienna one too which is a bit different for me and gonna give it a go tomorrow! Have to say I absolutely love the make up look today Sam, your eyes are gorgeous and together with that lip-wow! Sending you lots of love support & encouragement lovely lady, may your channel continue to grow and you keep giving us all the heads up on all the bargains you find!! I know I dont always comment, to be honest since I lost my mum early december last year I've really struggled & just been very quiet although I've still been here watching and liking your vids etc. Been very poorly too with all my various problems but just recently started to get back into my make up again and really enjoying it. Would love to know exactly what shades you used today on your eyes from that palette Sam if you get time just might have to try and recreate it! Jo xx

    Thankyou for following up... I get it a bit better now.....re the bottles and revolution, and the fact that they are getting more expensive. I do agree with you that they are just churning out product after product....in fact I was getting a bit lost and less excited at every new launch, I was just surprised when you stated you would no longer review it promote them. ...however I also feel it was very brave of you to do that, especially when most of your reviews were based on that particular brand.
    Thankyou also for clearing up that it wasn't anything to do with a collab ....i wrongly assumed it may be a similar situation to what happened to another youtuber....which would have explained why you were seeming to drop the brand....what happened with her was very unfair and I would feel the same in her shoes....anyway I 'm looking forward to seeing more bargains on your channel.

    Hi Samantha such a shame you feel you have to justify yourself most of us agree with you I used to love Revolution palettes but like others have said they just seem to be repackaging older versions and I have also found a bit of a dip in quality not an improvement as you would expect yes they have some great products but there is so much affordable makeup and skincare out there so why should you limit yourself. I have had palettes and e.g. beauty blenders etc from Aliexpress and they have been absolutely fine I recently purchased some Stila Metallic eye shadow dupes and they are really good I have a lot of sleek makeup which is affordable (although maybe not enough mattes in them for you) but you can mix and match and experiment. Neither should you give up the revolution makeup you love and that works for you. I used to watch your videos and wonder how you afforded to keep up with the masses of releases from them as they churn out more and more. Carry on what you are doing and good luck with the channel I will stay with you xxxxx

  • @hayleywright2966
    @hayleywright2966 5 років тому +1

    I have a triple walled water bottle from one of the original companies and it retails for £25. I paid £15 because my pal works for them. So a co pang like revolution need not have been charging £15! For something we can get in wilko and b and m. Just want you to know I had unfollowed revolution social media before you posted your video so I’m not boycotting because of your video...I’m boycotting because they starting making a fantastic range of quality vegan makeup then just jumped off the bandwagon after the popular “vegan months” that isn’t cool. As I’m vegan I can’t morally purchase anymore. Besides I’ve got enough makeup to last me until I’m 90 🤣 and I’m saving for a huge op for my poor puppy...the insurance won’t cover even a quarter of the cost 😩 xx

  • @Emilyfreeman234
    @Emilyfreeman234 5 років тому +3

    I would say £15.99 very competitive for those bottles, i paid that in smiths for mine, they can get up to 20-25 pound mark. Personally i’d rather pay that price than use any disposable plastic bottles although that is just me

    • @Samanthauk
      @Samanthauk  5 років тому +3

    • @hayleywright2966

    I'm in the minority, I came here for revolution content and I dont mind a price increase because it means improved quality
    I'm not a content creator, I don't have to buy everything revolution comes out with but if they dont release things I'm interested or feel would be a good addition to my makeup collection I will purchase them
    I guess your video about revolution wasnt clear, it made it seem like you had totally cut ties with them and were removing all future content featuring the brand from your channel
    I still support revolution
