    I don’t think I’ve bought a single elf product knowing it was a dupe or with the intention of getting a dupe. I buy elf because it’s adorable, good quality and interesting for the price point

    In my country we don't have a choice. Besides essence and catrice, we don't have brands that offer decent palettes. Brands such as ABH exist but one palette costs someone's salary, literally.
    Edit: my country has non convertible currency so we can't order internationally.

    I have to say, I do like revolutions products, as shady as the company has been with duping, and I absolutely don’t agree with all the business decisions they’ve made, I love how affordable they are and the quality is pretty good with what I’ve tried (the eyeshadows can be hit or miss, but when they’re good, they’re GOOD). They also always have had one of the most make up heavy advent calendars I’ve come across (usually they’re full of skincare). As a student, I’d love to have an entire make up routine of high end brands, trust me, but right now that’s not realistic for me. I definitely think there are worse brands out there BUT DONT COME FOR ME PLEASE 😭

      One of the reasons their advent calendars are so generous is because they are a fast beauty brand. They are literally up to their necks in low quality products they can’t sell. My first ever order from them 3-ish years ago, they sent me a SHIT TON of free stuff. A brush, a big ass eye shadow palette, a highlighter, another smaller eye shadow palette, and two lipsticks. I got more free stuff than I did stuff I paid for. They literally have more product than they know what to do with and it’s so wasteful.

  • @Emerald.She-Ra
    @Emerald.She-Ra Рік тому +51

    I'm 41, and all this duping and copying has been going on since before I was born. Before KVD ever had her light and shade palettes, NYC Cosmetics had palettes with similar layouts, as did Collection 2000 (before it was simply called Collection). The Manny MUA diamond cut packaging design existed in the 80s and 90s. There were even keyrings/keychain lip glosses with that exact design.
    Before Revolution came along, MUA had dupes of the urban decay naked palettes, and had palettes like light and shade BEFORE KVD released hers. I'm sure if I dug around in the tray where I use old eyeshadow for art/colouring, I'd find them.
    Expensive makeup brands are often created in the same factory as budgets and dupes. The only difference is the ingredients amounts of certain items.
    What I have noticed is even expensive brands are using cheap ingredients, and adding in more irritants such as castor seed oil (ricinus communis oil), and also using palm oil.
    I've got a mixture of budget, dupes, mid range, and expensive cosmetics. Some are great, some not so great. I still have some of the very original Tam Beauty/Revolution, and Revolution Pro palettes, and whilst I don't use them on my face because I bought them years ago, the payoff and colours are a wee bit better than some are now. It's swings and roundabouts.

  • @elanortaylor1983
    @elanortaylor1983 Рік тому +31

    I think the main difference between a dup and a replica is that I should buy a dup for what it is, for example, a primer, and then through using it realise it behaves similarly to another product. But if you buy a product from one brand expecting it to act the way a product from another brand does, purely due to the way it looks, then there's a problem.

  • @StefGalasso
    @StefGalasso Рік тому +6

    I’m sorry but I can’t say I agree. Saying Elf isn’t reliant on copycat makeup is incorrect. I can name at least 10 products that have the same packaging and concept as higher end brands. Revolution is doing the same thing. When you look at the products you think of the higher end brand and that’s the point, affordable luxury. Is the quality always spot on? No. But that’s not the point or the price point would be the same. No one is calling out Tarte for outright copying the CT contour wand. That’s a bigger problem for me. Affordable brands copying higher end/luxury is just how the world works. It happens in fashion all the time and again no one bats an eyelid. That’s how trends work. We can’t be mad at brands for copying each other, that’s just how the world works. Imitation is the biggest form of flattery… Let’s just leave it at that 👍🏼

    I initially bought from Makeup Revolution because they were one of the only brands putting out pressed setting powder and bronzer dark enough for dark-skinned black people circa 2018-2020. Like they were literally going to black beauty gurus YT videos and commenting there like hey we have products that might work for you. That’s how I found out about their powder. If you weren’t super into makeup then, you have no idea how ridiculously hard it was to find affordable bronzer for dark skin before 2020.

    I used to buy from revolution beauty when I was at uni (mainly their eyeshadow palettes collabs with different creators). The products were affordable and, as I thought at the time, performed well. Since then I got older and wiser so I realised I don't need as many palettes as beauty gurus own, I also only need a few blushes and bronzers. I feel like revolution beauty rose to relevancy when all the beauty gurus were super popular, and they pushed and pushed and pushed new products every week, and many people (especially younger and more impressionable - including myself) had the urge to have new stuff, and lots of it.

    I enjoy some Revolution products, some are holy Grail status for me. I see buying from Revolution and similar brands no different than buying the generic store brand cereal (or any food product) over the name brand. The generics rarely taste different and they often look very similar to the original. In my opinion, having your products copied/duped is simply the cost of doing business. Whether a product is copied or duped, the end result is still pretty much the same as the original so I have a hard time seeing where the distinction matters. Maybe it would be better if every brand trademarked and patented their products if they are going to take issue with copies.

    I got into makeup and bought a lot of their stuff but I feel they brought out that much stuff that was cheap and it let me hoard makeup. I liked the Sophie pallets and will continue to use them and the other ones I still have but I don’t see myself ever purchasing from them again.

    I don't own anything from Revolution Beauty. Some people treat makeup like a very structured step of their routine and the products just have to serve their purpose as is. For others, makeup is... a hobby, escapism, but they can't necessarily afford that beautiful pink, heart shaped box of too faced blush or whatever it is. So if said brand manufactures very similar packaging that's more affordable, I can't see an issue. Most makeup (lipstick,blush,eyeshadow etc) could achieve the same look. But alot of that charm and satisfaction is in the packaging. Someone who can't afford cosmetics from sephora shouldn't be made to feel disenfranchised by cheap plastic.

      One time I bought their Cinderella eyeshadow and face palette, it was so, SO horrible. One of the worst eyeshadow palettes I've ever bought. Dark colors are so patchy and hard to blend, many light colors, especially light blue, look like they don't exist on your eyes at all. Nothing better were with blushes and highlighters, they smell like LITERAL BURNT CHALK and very easy to break. The packaging was made of cheap carton. And the worst, this pallete costed more than 1200 rubles in Russia (it is more than 17$ which is kinda pricey for Russian market), you literally pay only for Disney label and for exploited nostalgia for popular cartoon film, not for quality. I threw this palette in the trash bin very quick cause it got broken.

    I bought a highlighter from them in September and didn’t open it until about a month ago cause it’s a cream, I knew it would go off fast. I think I was sold it with busted packaging cause it was expired when I used it for the first time last month. Was super disappointed and tagged them in an Insta story, which they then saw (Insta said they saw it) and they never responded. I was so excited for that highlight and I still love the idea but am sad it expired without me using it. I have an eyeshadow stick from Rock n Roll Beauty and it is gorgeous though.

So I suppose for beginners or for trying something you mightnt ever touch again their good?

    If I could find more affordable options that were light enough for me in my small town drugstore I'd stop using it. But as it is now Revolution is my only option.
