You can not compare shein to those. Shein adds about a 1000 new items to their store every day. It's obvious that they are way more shady than H&M or Uniqlo
I don’t like how she didn’t talk about if their was any kick back in the pan or any patchiness because her reviews from just a year ago used to be so in depth
Honestly I thought nikkie would bring up the SHEIN situation in the video but she acted like sheglam is the new ColourPop. I wonder how much Shein payed for this.
I literally only wear elf and get compliments all the time. That's just more proof that you don't need expensive products. Elf is amazing anyway especially their foundation.
@@ayoutubeuser1284 NARS is amazing I have a lot of their stuff but they are insanely expensive I think the point here was makeup on a budget OMG side note: NARS has a primer that is spf 50 and WOW it makes your makeup last and look flawless, its sold out rn but if you can afford it and get a chance to grab it you should!!!
She Never talked about any brand like this and LOVED every single product and have nothing to say about it, that’s kind a weird! I really trusted her opinion on makeup but now I wander if she was honest !
I think it isn’t “oh we can’t support affordable makeup” and more “oh Shien is a fast fashion brand that’s why it’s so affordable” and giving them money supports the child labor, the air pollution etc that people have a issue with Edit: Totally hear you on the fact that not everyone has money to buy super expensive makeup and there’s absolutely no shame in that, gotta be beautiful on a budget! Just putting it out there why some ppl might not be fond of buying bc of the brand
I agree but we have to understand that some people cant afford other choices. Also if you buy makeup you 95% support child labor because most brands use mica (which is collected by children sadly). But lol the part she said that "they dont want to buy it because its affordable" I was like🤨
On top of supporting their brand, the review wasn’t honest, Nikki is a brutally honest makeup artist, and usually has something to say about some products. It’s hard to believe there wasn’t a single complaint
I agree with people in comments that Nikkie seemed overly hyped and didn't have any criticism about the brand. There is only one reason why brands like these can have cheap products and I will never support such ethics. :(
There are a ton of other brands out there for people on a budget. It's not about affordability, it's about cheap labor and terrible working conditions.
I agree, it's about having the bare minimum of moral values and understanding that there are affordable brands that don't damage the environment and abuse children in need.
@@cookies5094 agreed. And let's be real: this is makeup and fashion stuff, it's not a primary need product like medicine or food no one can live without. Makeup we can do without or buy other equally cheap options that are not exploiting people.

@@Daniela-ee7ib i think it’s just that they’re destroying the environment *more* than other companies - others are terrible for the environment, but the rate at which shein designs/produces/ships clothes (like 1000 are added per day or something insane) so they have the biggest environmental impact. i’m not saying nobody should support them - tbh i have a lot of shein products because i’m broke - but i think this is why shein causes more outrage than like h&m for example
@@thicc_astley girl I honestly don't get your point. I'm pretty sure you buy From brands that also destroying the environment. You not buying for one company isn't gonna change anything

I’ve done some research and I really believe they just have a lot of money to give influencers.

Not too mention she seems very bought out by this brand on this video. I’ve never seen her so all in on a brand she has just tried. Idk the whole video seems strange.
@@nathalyfernandez8153 even with other affordable brands like e.l.f., NYX, wet n wild etc she has at least one or two items that she doesn’t like and she’s a little more critical than she was here
The fact that she didn’t say that it was sheins makeup line is hilarious to me. I’m just imaging it being on the list of things that she should and shouldn’t say 🤣
This video made me kinda sad. SHEIN is the leader in fast fashion, an industry that contributes to 20% of global pollution. Fast fashion and particularly the high turnover rate of SHEIN is based on exploration of resources, labor, and IP. But what’s really sad is the idea that they are helping animals. They are a super producer of microplastics and any “donation” they make on the consumer’s behalf, is a tax-write off for the company. There are other ways of getting new makeup for cheap that just need a bit of research. No company is without fault, but we need to start somewhere. A place where we can start is that makeup should be priced by its resource and labor consumption, not by brand.
Thank you for saying it, I understand that money can be tight, and sometimes you just want a little make up for cheap, but I can’t support this kind of make up brand sadly… no shade to people that do, as long as they know about the problems about it
I was looking for that comment. It makes me really sad that influeners rather take Sheins money instead of taking a stand against the company. I thought Nikki would be different :(
Literally, e.l.f. is my personal favorite bc they’re not a fast fashion brand like Colourpop and their shipping boxes are recyclable and they’re cutting a lot of their plastic use
Dude every company can only care to an extent. Its life it sucks. Everyone wants to sell their product and gain more profit. Just like the phone you're using and Nike, phones, etc. Everything says made in China, Taiwan etc. They have cheap labor and America likes to make big profit. But America also has low minimum wage so normal ppl have to buy cheap
I came to the comments curious and am so happy to see people not supporting this. Make up on a budget, yes. But brands like this don't make these products for people who can't afford makeup, they make products so the middle class can buy massive amounts of makeup they don't really need.
most brands also support child labor if you buy something and it says “made in china” that means you are supporting child labor which is yes fucked up but there’s not really anything we can do about it it’s cheap
I don't understand how people don't realize that if it comes from china then it was produced in a sweat shop. That goes for everything from shein, amazon, nike, charlotte russe, A&E, walmart. At least shein isn't massively overcharging for their products
@@yolscf4679 Child labor, fast fashion, underpaid workers. The company has also been accused of human trafficking and slavery. The list goes on unfortunally.
OH NOOOOOOOO!!! I have two girlfriends, but very few people on YT are happy for my relationship success. They disl*ke all of the videos I make with my 2 girlfriends. Please be kind, dear mua
I'm 13 minutes in and I came to the comment section to see if it was just me. I valued her opinion above all others and this bums me out. The look was gorgeous as usual of course. 😞💜
this disappointed me. she is such an amazing TH-camr and she flat out lied to us. the placement and shade and everything changed, it's so obviously different. shein must pay her well. :(
"You're getting glam and helping the world a bit" you're helping the world more by not buying sheglam... if the argument is affordable beauty, there are hidden gem brands and sales and such out there that are much better
No... no... NOOOO!!! I came to the highliter part and Nikki, the queen of highlither, just put on a highlighter that looked GRAY in some lighting and she said.. she said yaz? I´m honeslty about to cry what has SHEIN done to my queen??
@@maggie742 Contour and Bronzer are different. I can tell you for a fact that pale skin, like mine, the natural shadows on our skin is GREY and if you throw on only this Warm Bronzer, it looks extremely wacky and wrong. This is why you use Contour AND Bronzer, to balance the Natural Grey with some Warmth. Knowing there's actual Contour with the same grey color my skin has for shadows is REALLY Nice, because that means i can be less awkwardly colored. I think the "problem" is that she was a bit heavy handed with how much Contour she used, that's all, but, with everything together, it looks natural, but a bit dramatic. So.
I know a lot of people are saying she wasn't being honest and all that. But what stuck out to me the most was that she didn't even include if it was "payed by herself", "promoted" or "PR" etc, which she normally does? (Unless I missed that part) It's also weird she only said about ONE thing (I think) that it "didn't have a smell". I just KNOW that gloss she used has a mega smell of paint... and probably more smell really weird Edit: Wait... was there NO intro?? What..
Nikki, I know Sheglam is promoting a charitable cause here, but supporting a brand that's on Shein isn't helping - the cheapest of fast fashion helps no one, poor quality clothes that aren't designed to last beyond 5 wears; made most likely with exploited or slave labour... I would love to see you take on more considered sponsorships that guide your younger audience, rather than just riding the wave they create. Love the final look, it's amazing what you can do. True artiste.
I bought a beautiful purple blush from target for 8 dollars and a color our pop eyeshadow palette at ulta for around 10. I am unemployed currently and it would’ve been much easier to buy from shein but I don’t want to support slave labor if I don’t have to. Plus idek know what’s in their products and I have VERY sensitive skin
She probably got more for this video than most of the shein workers will make in several YEARS. So disappointed :/ Tho I love to see everyone in the comments calling it out
That makes me assume you don't purchase most drugstore brands either then. Including some brands that are sold at Sephora or Ulta, because, you know, they also destroy the planet.
“Not everyone can afford high end products.” Who’s gonna tell her that *DRUGSTORE* makeup is affordable, and stuff everyone can buy? Like girl, come on. We know you know.
“We need to save nikkie…” I am 100% sure she knows what’s going on with Shein. Her review was over the top. The part where she used the cream contour… it was so muddy… come on 🙄
It really angers me that collection goal being "protecting earth etc" when Shein is becoming one of the most polluting business cause of its nutly high production 🤦🏻♀️💔
Shein is VERY sketchy for their makeup companies, but it is somehow proven safe for the skin. And it’s actually very beautiful on the skin! My friend got acne from it, but I find it hard to believe because a lot of people didn’t get any acne or irritation on TH-cam/TikTok. And it’s amazing because it’s affordable!
I would say believe your friend, even the safest products could cause people with sensitive skin to break out, doesn’t mean sheglam makeup is unsafe, it’s just some people’s skin is more sensitive than others, it’s very normal
How is it a scam? I get that a lot of people don’t support fast fashion and that’s okay. But that doesn’t make it a scam. I’ve used SHEIN for 2 years and have never had an issue with them.
@@Kiterpuss that could be said about majority of the makeup companies out there. People are more focused on shein because they got exposed, but some of the most popular brands use the same practices that shein does.
I think this is the first actual video I have watched properly from you and you are absolutely so fun and upbeat and oh my goodness I am totally loving u already :)
I want to thank you for doing this video Nikki, I actually enjoyed it a lot and appreciated to see how their products look. I have a hard time finding light and cool enough makeup for myself, so I've already ordered the contour to try it out for myself. Thank you!
Nikkie it isn't about the products and how well they work, it is about the ethics of a company that employees sweatshop workers, destroys the planet and ultimately isn't something that I would expect you to promote.
@@gianettawill there are plenty of other makeup brands that are actually more accessible than sheglam and more affordable that are working to be better for the environment. there’s no reason to support sheglam
There is nothing to be "open minded" here... No hate to Nikki I really love her videos but, promoting a brand that produces soo much pollution, under pays their staff, hire children and force them to overtime, I don't think we should consider this brand only! Why is it still present? I'm so glad shein is banned in India as it should be banned everywhere!! It is causing too much pollution! Its not about the products.... Its about how much the brand is affecting this planet... $50,000 dollars will not undo the damage shein has already done and will be doing. Kinda disappointed here, didn't execpt this from Nikki.
This lady is the sweetest I only started watching 2 months ago and I love her , she is so supportive as soon as I got a account on yt I followed her keep going Nikki we love u ❤❤
Hi Nikkie, I just had to tell you that I LOVE LOVE your videos, you keep it real and as a matter of fact. I appreciate you. Also your humor is everything. One more thing, I ordered you moisturizer/primer, absolutely fabulous, your serum is everything and I'm addicted to your setting spray. Fantastic line you have there, so worth it. And your lipglosses go on so smooth and make my lips look succulent. Thank you 😊
I tried the SHEGLAM foundation about a year ago, before I heard about the ‘situation’ with the company, and it oxidises quite a bit. Just as an FYI if anyone IS going to buy it, go a shade lighter than you might
NIKKIE, I THINK YOU SHOULD DO A VIDEO WHERE YOU DO YOUR MAKEUP IN A TRUE MIRROR. ITS A MIRROR THAT DOESN’T FLIP THE REFLECTION. YOU’D SEE WHAT YOU ACTUALLY LOOK LIKE VS PICTURES, VIDEOS, OR LOOKING AT YOUR NORMAL MIRRORED REFLECTION! Much love queen! ❤️
Girl! I just got my liquid makeup order and immediately ordered more, seriously cannot tell you how goreous I felt using that bronzer, I’m same as you so pale I’m green so bronzer has always been a fail for me, not this time!! And I used it for lids too and it was beautiful
Wasn’t there loads of lead found in shein products? Also didn’t know it was a shein brand until I looked in the comments, weird that nikki doesn’t mention that in the vid
honestly disappointed in nikkie. we all know about shein and everything like child labor, pollution & more. really seems like she was payed a lot for this. she kept looking to the side like there was a script or guideline to what she “should” be saying. the makeup turned out great though.
This is dissapointing. Shein is not just catastrophic for the environment but also has horrifically unethical working conditions. Their products are only cheap because the purchaser isn't the one paying the price for it.
@@ah5557 True sadly. Unfortunately current society is focused around consumerism, and almost all large scale businesses are damaging to people and the environment. Sadly unless the businesses have an financial incentive to burn themselves to the ground little will change.
@@pysduckfanforever You must be new or did not watch the whole video. Nikki's honest opinion matters a lot to her. She gives "her opinion" and says so. What works for one person may not work for another. That's normal. Nikki has done tutorials for high-end makeup to drug store products, and I appreciate her HONEST opinions.
@@barbarakosloski9260 How do you know that? Do you know what she's like personally? People do anything for money. Why would she not get things on her own and give her opinion instead of having everything sent to her by the company itself?
So today is my lil angels heavenly birthday. We lost her a few years ago and it’s been a really rough one this year emotions just building and hitting me hard. Your video notification popped up and I said let’s watch some Nikkie she always makes my day brighter. I was vibing so much with the eye colors and then you come back and those lashes….they have butterflies 🦋 We always end up with butterflies near when we’re thinking of our lil angel. And there you are with those butterflies 🦋 I love your videos and todays really just hit different and I just wanted to say thank you for bringing a smile to my face on such a hard day. You are a beautiful soul my dear 💜
I love using blush as a contour! The SHEGlam liquid blushes are so perfect for everyday and natural makeup looks, especially since you don't need too much to create a perfect look!
I was looking for a eyebrow pencil, & found this duo at dept store! I didn’t think it was going to be a hit! But girl, I was sooo surprised & now it’s hard to get that shade!! Def recommend SHEGLAM, Not that cheap now bc prices gone up. But the duo pencil def worth it!❤ Nicki gurl, U Always slay on the makeup! 🥰👍💕
I know this is a makeup channel but I would really love to see how you do your hair! It is always so sleek and there are never any frizzies or flyaways
The placement of that contour bronzer and blush made no sense it just looked muddy but what ever powder you did after to fix the contour blush and contour was great
it annoys me that I watch nikki because other makeup artists aren't honest, then she saying that this eyeshadow that u can barely see is pigmented, ofc I still love nikki but please be honest to us because we all watch you for a reason
I honestly love SHEGLAM and SHEIN!! I dont know why people are hating so much on them because theyre a fast fashion brand but are steady shopping at other places who do the same thing SHEIN does but are more hidden about it. I love you Nikkie! Thank you for being so HONEST and recommending amazing things to us! Love Always, Lexiss
The thing is, if you guys hate Shein, you gotta keep that same energy for H&M, Forever21, Zara, Urban Outfitters, Mango, Uniqlo, etc.
Shein is way more shady than any of those companies. Shein is very, very secretive about their business

Thank you for saying it, I understand that money can be tight, and sometimes you just want a little make up for cheap, but I can’t support this kind of make up brand sadly… no shade to people that do, as long as they know about the problems about it
I was looking for that comment. It makes me really sad that influeners rather take Sheins money instead of taking a stand against the company. I thought Nikki would be different :(
Please don‘t support any SHEIN companies. There are so many affordable make up brands on the market :(
Literally, e.l.f. is my personal favorite bc they’re not a fast fashion brand like Colourpop and their shipping boxes are recyclable and they’re cutting a lot of their plastic use
I couldn't buy them sadly, it's not available out here even Sheglam lol
May I ask why ?
@@jesuusch same I love elf wet n wild beauty essence and nyx
You know some of us live in Australia where “affordable brands” are pretty expensive so we don’t really have many options.
SHEIN doing charity to “protect animals” is so funny because we all know they’d not care about the world. So tried of brands green washing
literally!
Literally every brand ever
Donate to protect animals while testing on animals, makes sense ....... *tired sigh*
Dude every company can only care to an extent. Its life it sucks. Everyone wants to sell their product and gain more profit. Just like the phone you're using and Nike, phones, etc. Everything says made in China, Taiwan etc. They have cheap labor and America likes to make big profit. But America also has low minimum wage so normal ppl have to buy cheap
Better to do nothing then?
I came to the comments curious and am so happy to see people not supporting this. Make up on a budget, yes. But brands like this don't make these products for people who can't afford makeup, they make products so the middle class can buy massive amounts of makeup they don't really need.
whats happening please?
most brands also support child labor if you buy something and it says “made in china” that means you are supporting child labor which is yes fucked up but there’s not really anything we can do about it it’s cheap
@@Loveelyyart i am confused too. Trying to understand what's happening
I don't understand how people don't realize that if it comes from china then it was produced in a sweat shop. That goes for everything from shein, amazon, nike, charlotte russe, A&E, walmart. At least shein isn't massively overcharging for their products
Nobody NEEDS makeup.
When you found that perfect contour shade i literally felt to happy for you literally so glad you found this :)
Ok, so is wrong to buy clothes from SHEIN but buying makeup from them once it's hidden under the brand SHEGLAM is okay. This society is crazy
What i have always thought!!
This
Why is that? I mean, I havent ever bought anything from none of these brands (yet) but i’d like to know what’s wrong with Shein.
@@yolscf4679 Child labor, fast fashion, underpaid workers. The company has also been accused of human trafficking and slavery. The list goes on unfortunally.
@@bluesky8334 ok, thanks for the info. Definitely not among my favourites.
That was the most welcoming intro ever
indeed 😌 we all feel THE MOST welcome
OH NOOOOOOOO!!! I have two girlfriends, but very few people on YT are happy for my relationship success. They disl*ke all of the videos I make with my 2 girlfriends. Please be kind, dear mua
@@AxxLAfriku no
I’m so glad someone else likes the primer too
This Permission To Dance colored/themed sweater is giving me life!!!!
This video felt… awkward? I love Nikkie and everything she makes but something was off about this… 🤔
It was overly positive
Crazy how she didn't mention everything wrong with Shein...
I was looking for this comment.. there is something off.. awkward indeed
I'm 13 minutes in and I came to the comment section to see if it was just me. I valued her opinion above all others and this bums me out. The look was gorgeous as usual of course. 😞💜
Can’t wait for the apology video
20:30 She went off camera and used products that actually worked, look how different her blush and contour look before and after
She’s dishonest
I had to go back and see your so observant ✌
thanks for pointing that out!
Yes omg i saw
this disappointed me. she is such an amazing TH-camr and she flat out lied to us. the placement and shade and everything changed, it's so obviously different. shein must pay her well. :(
"Listen, there's never enough blush."😂🙌🏻
YASSS QUEEN WE LOVE ✨✨ SLAVE LABOUR ✨✨
"You're getting glam and helping the world a bit" you're helping the world more by not buying sheglam... if the argument is affordable beauty, there are hidden gem brands and sales and such out there that are much better
Did you change your blush while you did your second eye? It looks totally different. Xx
I've read this somewhere else I'm not watching I'm listening and reading comments I gotta go check now cuz this video is just nuts to me
No... no... NOOOO!!! I came to the highliter part and Nikki, the queen of highlither, just put on a highlighter that looked GRAY in some lighting and she said.. she said yaz? I´m honeslty about to cry what has SHEIN done to my queen??
I agree. When she started contouring it literally looked like dirt on her face.
@@maggie742 Contour and Bronzer are different. I can tell you for a fact that pale skin, like mine, the natural shadows on our skin is GREY and if you throw on only this Warm Bronzer, it looks extremely wacky and wrong. This is why you use Contour AND Bronzer, to balance the Natural Grey with some Warmth.
Knowing there's actual Contour with the same grey color my skin has for shadows is REALLY Nice, because that means i can be less awkwardly colored.
I think the "problem" is that she was a bit heavy handed with how much Contour she used, that's all, but, with everything together, it looks natural, but a bit dramatic. So.
I know a lot of people are saying she wasn't being honest and all that. But what stuck out to me the most was that she didn't even include if it was "payed by herself", "promoted" or "PR" etc, which she normally does? (Unless I missed that part)
It's also weird she only said about ONE thing (I think) that it "didn't have a smell". I just KNOW that gloss she used has a mega smell of paint... and probably more smell really weird
Edit: Wait... was there NO intro?? What..
And she looked to the side a lot to make sure that she said what was written down there for her...
Honestly so dissatisfied to know you’ll support Shein when they do literal child labor and contaminate the world with the fast fashion ethics.
Maybe they should "donate" their money to the people working in their factories...
👏🏻🙌🏻
Amen to that!!
😭🤣
Nikki, I know Sheglam is promoting a charitable cause here, but supporting a brand that's on Shein isn't helping - the cheapest of fast fashion helps no one, poor quality clothes that aren't designed to last beyond 5 wears; made most likely with exploited or slave labour... I would love to see you take on more considered sponsorships that guide your younger audience, rather than just riding the wave they create. Love the final look, it's amazing what you can do. True artiste.
Well said 👍
👏 Not to mention the "charitable cause" is really just a tax write-off for Shein...
I bought a beautiful purple blush from target for 8 dollars and a color our pop eyeshadow palette at ulta for around 10. I am unemployed currently and it would’ve been much easier to buy from shein but I don’t want to support slave labor if I don’t have to. Plus idek know what’s in their products and I have VERY sensitive skin
She probably got more for this video than most of the shein workers will make in several YEARS. So disappointed :/
Tho I love to see everyone in the comments calling it out
Sorry Nikkie, but I would never purchase makeup from a fast fashion brand that litterally destroys the planet.
I hope you only buy from independent fashion brands then 😂 all big brand companies destroy the planet and some of them still test on animals so…
Most drug store and high end companies do that...
That makes me assume you don't purchase most drugstore brands either then. Including some brands that are sold at Sephora or Ulta, because, you know, they also destroy the planet.
Majority of the stuff you use on a daily basis does that from toothpaste to make up
no ethical consumption under capitalism hun, every brand is destroying the planet
SHEIN must have payed her a lot 🥴
But they can’t pay there actual workers lol 🙃
@@lilithvalentine4292 yess facys
Instead of the child laborers getting the money Nikki tutorials gets it because you know she's not rich enough
Had no idea how toxic this company was, untill I read the comments.
Sameee...and i did not expected that from Nikkie:((
@@mariach3830 might be because she didn't know. I didn't know about the toxicness of shein until I saw the comments-
Same…I feel terrible now. At least 1/4 of my closet is SHEIN clothes…😔
@@Dexterity_Jedi137 lmao!! Oops!
@@keertanavinod yahhhh, i was too. for like a min. but i really try not to have high expectations for others. Just for myself!
“Not everyone can afford high end products.”
Who’s gonna tell her that *DRUGSTORE* makeup is affordable, and stuff everyone can buy? Like girl, come on. We know you know.
True, I use NYX & they are really affordable and ethical.
and many drug store products test on animals, are not ethical as well AND dont cater to dark skin
@@kiairaharbin nyx is pretty expensive where I live, I'd love to buy their products but I never have the money 😭
@@CyberWarezz05 we have them all here thankfully!
Exactly 😢
As someone who’s constantly on a budget; There are dozens of brands out there who get you more ethical, inexpensive make up.
Ethical consumption does not exist under late stage capitalism.
@@ah5557 I didn't say it was ethical. I said more ethical.
@@ah5557 that’s what I said, under a capitalist society, someone is always being exploited. No matter what, sadly.
I laughed when I heard the West talk about morality🤣😅
Collaborating or promoting Shein in any way is morally reprehensible
💋💋💋 Do you like makeup? Come along on my channel! kisses beautiful...👩👸👩🌹
I didn’t know she in did all that. I shopped at she in and thought it was inexpensive because, it was made in China.
Not nikkie promoting a SHEIN OWNED brand, shein doesn't even pay proper salaries to their workers 🥴 we need to save nikkie from this review
I honestly thought that she was going to bring this up in the video but she acted like sheglam is the new ColourPop
“We need to save nikkie…” I am 100% sure she knows what’s going on with Shein. Her review was over the top. The part where she used the cream contour… it was so muddy… come on 🙄
💋💋💋 Do you like makeup? Come along on my channel! kisses beautiful...👩👸👩🌹
@@tigressm.3560 17:44 "the dark purple shade has so much pigment" - yeaaaaahhh nikkie....
@@tigressm.3560 the contour product looks like someone punched her 😅😂
It really angers me that collection goal being "protecting earth etc" when Shein is becoming one of the most polluting business cause of its nutly high production 🤦🏻♀️💔
This just shows that selling your soul always has a price....
Omg yes literally
Shein is VERY sketchy for their makeup companies, but it is somehow proven safe for the skin. And it’s actually very beautiful on the skin! My friend got acne from it, but I find it hard to believe because a lot of people didn’t get any acne or irritation on TH-cam/TikTok. And it’s amazing because it’s affordable!
thats just part of life like nothing is going to stop acne from coming, everyones gonna have to go through it some day lol
may have sensitive skin or allergic to smth
“Find it hard to believe” bro what💀 everyone’s skin is different
I would say believe your friend, even the safest products could cause people with sensitive skin to break out, doesn’t mean sheglam makeup is unsafe, it’s just some people’s skin is more sensitive than others, it’s very normal
I don't not like it because it's affordable, I don't like it because Shein is a scam company.
How is it a scam? I get that a lot of people don’t support fast fashion and that’s okay. But that doesn’t make it a scam. I’ve used SHEIN for 2 years and have never had an issue with them.
I love SHEIN, definitely not a scam
No their not lol
Did you mean a "scum company?" Because that's absolutely accurate.
@@Kiterpuss that could be said about majority of the makeup companies out there. People are more focused on shein because they got exposed, but some of the most popular brands use the same practices that shein does.
just saying hi to the tea channels that are gonna be making videos on this
Yeah, Girl! Show us what child labor can do
dead
Huh 🤨
The device your using was made by a child!
@@DisneyFan1 what? lmao
Child labor?
I think this is the first actual video I have watched properly from you and you are absolutely so fun and upbeat and oh my goodness I am totally loving u already :)
I want to thank you for doing this video Nikki, I actually enjoyed it a lot and appreciated to see how their products look. I have a hard time finding light and cool enough makeup for myself, so I've already ordered the contour to try it out for myself. Thank you!
Nikkie it isn't about the products and how well they work, it is about the ethics of a company that employees sweatshop workers, destroys the planet and ultimately isn't something that I would expect you to promote.
couldn’t agree more - thank you for posting this 🤍
It is easy to target the mass produces, but not everyone can afford or has access to other brands .
@@gianettawill there are plenty of other makeup brands that are actually more accessible than sheglam and more affordable that are working to be better for the environment. there’s no reason to support sheglam
@@gianettawill start with Colourpop made in California
@@ALT-vz3jn I live in Australia, and try to use Australian products. But I also understand that for some people they need affordable.
ily but can we please not give Shein our attention🥺 it‘s one of the worst companies out there, so if you are able to avoid it, you should do so❤️
NO I ALREADY BOUGHT SHEIN AND ITS SOO CHEAP ANF I LOVE SHEIN🙀🙀🙀
There is nothing to be "open minded" here... No hate to Nikki I really love her videos but, promoting a brand that produces soo much pollution, under pays their staff, hire children and force them to overtime, I don't think we should consider this brand only! Why is it still present? I'm so glad shein is banned in India as it should be banned everywhere!! It is causing too much pollution! Its not about the products.... Its about how much the brand is affecting this planet... $50,000 dollars will not undo the damage shein has already done and will be doing. Kinda disappointed here, didn't execpt this from Nikki.
This lady is the sweetest I only started watching 2 months ago and I love her , she is so supportive as soon as I got a account on yt I followed her keep going Nikki we love u ❤❤
Love you love Shetland!Thank you for showing us how to!
Isn’t purchasing from SHEGLAM supporting SHEIN? :(
Yes it’s the same brand.
Girl get your coin, love you but this was so insincere.
Their waterproof products are the absolute best I’ve ever had. I got soap in my eye while showering with it on and it stayed like new.
THIS IS PERFECT BECAUSE I LITERALLY CAME HERE TO SEE YOUR MAKE UP ROUTINE AND YOU HAVE A SHEGLAM TUTORIAL. I love it.... this is why I love Nikkie
I love the peppy joyful energy that niki has been radiating ❤❤
same she cheers me up
so sad that i cant trust this review :( loved nikkie for seeming so honest before
THERE IS TONS OF AFFORDABLE BRANDS OUT THERE, pls do not buy from shein, they're such an unethical brand
Hi Nikkie, I just had to tell you that I LOVE LOVE your videos, you keep it real and as a matter of fact. I appreciate you. Also your humor is everything. One more thing, I ordered you moisturizer/primer, absolutely fabulous, your serum is everything and I'm addicted to your setting spray. Fantastic line you have there, so worth it. And your lipglosses go on so smooth and make my lips look succulent. Thank you 😊
Those lashes TOTALLY pull the look together!!!!!!!!!! AHH gorgeous! Stunning!
I love Sheglam . I tried many products and all of them is insane
Love you queen, but partnering with SHEIN was not the move to do.
She in must have offered NikkiE A LOT of money for this deal
I tried the SHEGLAM foundation about a year ago, before I heard about the ‘situation’ with the company, and it oxidises quite a bit. Just as an FYI if anyone IS going to buy it, go a shade lighter than you might
I love how Sheglam has mini .50 cent or 1.00 packets to try their foundation at home before purchasing a full sized one.
SHE'S SUCH A CUTIE TALKING ABOUT THE MAKEUP AAAA
NIKKIE, I THINK YOU SHOULD DO A VIDEO WHERE YOU DO YOUR MAKEUP IN A TRUE MIRROR. ITS A MIRROR THAT DOESN’T FLIP THE REFLECTION. YOU’D SEE WHAT YOU ACTUALLY LOOK LIKE VS PICTURES, VIDEOS, OR LOOKING AT YOUR NORMAL MIRRORED REFLECTION!
Much love queen! ❤️
Girl! I just got my liquid makeup order and immediately ordered more, seriously cannot tell you how goreous I felt using that bronzer, I’m same as you so pale I’m green so bronzer has always been a fail for me, not this time!! And I used it for lids too and it was beautiful
Wasn’t there loads of lead found in shein products? Also didn’t know it was a shein brand until I looked in the comments, weird that nikki doesn’t mention that in the vid
honestly disappointed in nikkie. we all know about shein and everything like child labor, pollution & more. really seems like she was payed a lot for this. she kept looking to the side like there was a script or guideline to what she “should” be saying. the makeup turned out great though.
I noticed that too and just wanted to comment it. It was really obvious that she had a script
Your make-up skills are ✨IMMACULATE✨
This is dissapointing. Shein is not just catastrophic for the environment but also has horrifically unethical working conditions. Their products are only cheap because the purchaser isn't the one paying the price for it.
Ethical consumption does not exist under late stage capitalism.
@@ah5557 True sadly. Unfortunately current society is focused around consumerism, and almost all large scale businesses are damaging to people and the environment. Sadly unless the businesses have an financial incentive to burn themselves to the ground little will change.
@@ah5557 Doesn't mean you can't try to avoid the worst companies out there.

This was soo beautiful!! I am waiting for your vintage makeup series, eagerly waiting!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Nikki has the most beautiful skin with or without makeup!
Okay but your skin is literally beautiful! 😍
a lot of y’all hate on shein for child labor, but apple does the same.
so true, i love using products made by child labor, its so cheap and affordable
i’ve been wanting to see what people think of SHEGLAM- but nikkie’s the ✨ makeup queen ✨ so i shall see!!!
She got sponsered so she's not gonna be honest
@@pysduckfanforever You must be new or did not watch the whole video. Nikki's honest opinion matters a lot to her. She gives "her opinion" and says so. What works for one person may not work for another. That's normal. Nikki has done tutorials for high-end makeup to drug store products, and I appreciate her HONEST opinions.
@@barbarakosloski9260 How do you know that? Do you know what she's like personally? People do anything for money. Why would she not get things on her own and give her opinion instead of having everything sent to her by the company itself?
@@pysduckfanforever not to mention their makeup is vegan so another a win for me
@@mejustme9942 except they exploit children labor
So today is my lil angels heavenly birthday. We lost her a few years ago and it’s been a really rough one this year emotions just building and hitting me hard. Your video notification popped up and I said let’s watch some Nikkie she always makes my day brighter. I was vibing so much with the eye colors and then you come back and those lashes….they have butterflies 🦋 We always end up with butterflies near when we’re thinking of our lil angel. And there you are with those butterflies 🦋 I love your videos and todays really just hit different and I just wanted to say thank you for bringing a smile to my face on such a hard day. You are a beautiful soul my dear 💜
I love using blush as a contour! The SHEGlam liquid blushes are so perfect for everyday and natural makeup looks, especially since you don't need too much to create a perfect look!
She literally don't need make-up she looks already gorgeous ❤
Omg why haven’t I found you before you’re so funny😂 I love you❤
I was looking for a eyebrow pencil, & found this duo at dept store! I didn’t think it was going to be a hit! But girl, I was sooo surprised & now it’s hard to get that shade!! Def recommend SHEGLAM, Not that cheap now bc prices gone up. But the duo pencil def worth it!❤ Nicki gurl, U Always slay on the makeup! 🥰👍💕
I know this is a makeup channel but I would really love to see how you do your hair! It is always so sleek and there are never any frizzies or flyaways
💋💋💋 Do you like makeup? Come along on my channel! kisses beautiful...👩👸👩🌹
The placement of that contour bronzer and blush made no sense it just looked muddy but what ever powder you did after to fix the contour blush and contour was great
I love some interesting products of SheGlam, like multi chromatic eye pencils, glitters, UFO highlights :) so many cool stuff
i jus love her energyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
it annoys me that I watch nikki because other makeup artists aren't honest, then she saying that this eyeshadow that u can barely see is pigmented, ofc I still love nikki but please be honest to us because we all watch you for a reason
during the entire video she avoided saying the makeup was from SHEIN. until the very end
I didn't know SHEGLAM is SHEIN's beauty brand. Thanks for the info comment section. Now I changed my mind
I have the sheglam blush and it is MAGIC everyone loves it when I use it on them❤
I honestly love SHEGLAM and SHEIN!! I dont know why people are hating so much on them because theyre a fast fashion brand but are steady shopping at other places who do the same thing SHEIN does but are more hidden about it. I love you Nikkie! Thank you for being so HONEST and recommending amazing things to us!
Love Always, Lexiss
