  • In today’s video, we’re diving deep into the world of social media influencers and the unrealistic standards they often set. While it’s easy to get swept up in the glamorous lives depicted online, it’s crucial to recognize that not everything we see is a true reflection of reality.

    those skincare videos always make me laugh cause i always wonder how they KNOW any of that is really working when they have 17 products on their face back to back.

      As an esthetician, it would be near impossible to know if you are introducing all of those things n into your skin at once. Very unneeded!

    There are just so many things even besides the horrifying overconsumption... The main one got me is eating in the bath?! Am I the only one who thinks this is absolutely mad?! Especially with the hyper perfumed baths... I can barely tolerate going into lush, these baths in a small steamy room are just a headache waiting to happen and then eating in that environment 😵‍💫

      I don’t bring food. I’ve had cocktails and wine before in the bath tub. I’ve had ice cream bars and popsicles. That said usually one of my partners can make the drink and bring it to me. I’m also in the bath for 20 minutes most for the time because I’m taking an oatmeal bath. I have eczema all over. Obviously no fragrance because I’m highly allergic

  • @mistycuz2011

    Can I say the tapping on products is so annoying. To me it’s like someone snapping and pointing at me to pay attention. And the over consumption in ALL of these videos just looks like junk. I would hate to have to store all that stuff. I would much rather put my money into my retirement and save the rest for my next vacation.

    I totally get the kid one that thing was awesome and that would make a kid so happy. So excited, that means you'd probably get to get something done uninterrupted for 20 whole minutes. It would be totally worth the setup. I just don't have the time to do something like that as a mom but I can totally get why they would do it if they have the time. But I feel like the setup time wouldn't be as bad. It would be the cleanup time that would suck

    If you have sensitive skin, Rhode might not be the best option. It is known to cause people with some sensitivities to break out in rashes.
    Try it out on your hands or a small patch on your face for a couple days first so you don't risk a whole face breakout if you have sensitive skin.

    I have two guest rooms, (no kids haha), we stock shampoo and conditioner, body wash, q tips, (those 3 items in both bathrooms), and in the more convenient one for me, because the master is up stairs, I have a few more items that I’m happy to share but are also more for my benefit, like cotton rounds and micellar water to remove my makeup before going upstairs, oh we have toothpaste in both bathrooms, and a cheap hair dryer in both bathrooms. If I have a guest who shows up and forgot all her makeup and truly needs it (mostly at my house we hang out on the deck without makeup) I’m happy to share but I’m not going to stock extra just in case ……. But even if I tried, the range of skin tones needed to accommodate, it’s nowhere near feasible! This is completely unrealistic. Translucent powder maybe, some things that the colors are universal (everyone uses black mascara for example) I could see having one back up with spare wands , but …… anyway. You’re right . None of this is realistic.
    Although you’re making me want a bath lol

    • @julieruby
      @julieruby  11 днів тому

    What gets me about the bath ones is the fact that all of the products used (bath bombs, soaps, candles etc) are scented.... I would be nauseous just setting all that up, don't even get me started on soaking in bath water that is like 75% perfume at that point.. 🤢

    I was always raised that taking a bath is sitting in your own filth so it's not really appealing to me unless I'm doing it because I'm sore or something & I'm going to take a shower 🚿 right after so I just can't see spending all that time or money the kids one I can understand a kid would love that but as a adult I don't need any of that to take a bath and relax lol I mean fr how much does all that stuff cost ? & All that skincare like I know it's expensive 🫰, most of that's going to expire because you've got a million things, or your canceling stuff out with the other stuff your putting on or worse messing up your skin.
