This was great! We tend to forget that when a celebrity endorses a product, they may genuinely like the product, but that doesn't mean they need it or would spend their own money for it. Celebrities have access to the best of the best. Over the years, we have put our confidence into celebrity backed products, and I think that is starting to change. Also, when you were reacting to how you felt about this particular subject, I could feel your passion. I am right there with you! Buy the product if you want it, but don't just buy it because your favorite celebrity is endorsing it. I also liked your new filming location. The sounds in the background of nature were nice.
I’m planning on buying the same things that I bought in July which is nothing!!!!
Switching to a mens single-blade razor has saved me so much money and creates so much less waste (blades are recyclable). Shaves my legs way closer too.
I’m buying nothing there is nothing I need so my cart will remain empty!!!!
On the topic of fake reviews...I once bought a product that had a card included saying if I gave a 5-star review of the product I'd get a $20 Amazon gift card...when I went to check it out, Amazon had banned anyone from leaving reviews of that seller due to suspicious activity! I have no complaints about the product thus far, but no wonder it was so highly rated by so many people...!
I have never signed up with Amazon when my sister said her card was being hacked from ordering from there. I've heard that from others as well. I do not like mail ordering because too many bad experiences having to return items. Especially my parrots food being almost expired and smelling old. I hate the hassle of returning things. This is a good informative video.
The new background is cute! I love videos like this & you've inspired me to finally go clean out my car😂 I do have to say this, pink tax does not exist. It cost more because of the dye and making the packaging pretty not because it's for women.
Buying online is so high risk because of companies regularly scamming us in terms of quality that I just no longer do online shopping. 🙃
Thank you, Kyra. A few years ago I bought a fabric shaver off Amazon per your recommendation and I absolutely love it! I know you're passionate about getting folks to *not* spend their money on things they probably shouldn't, but I would love for you to share what things are worth buying on Amazon if there's a discount on something during their October event.
please don't buy sneakers too 😢. I wasted my money on a replica of Nike AF white 😑
Ahh I forgot to mention the shoes 😓. I also had purchased a pair of new balances and they were replicas, thankfully I was able to return them.
Its not only celebrities that want us to buy stuff,
As I randomly scroll youtube, there are content creators making sponsored videos of things to buy from amazon. Sorry, but they get paid to show this stuff that they probably don't even use or like, plus they get sent the items for free, plus get paid. Very tacky and misleading
I'm buying men's razors, they're are better quality and cheaper 🙈 they were made for faces 😀
I do not have Amazon here where I live😊 so just watching Kyra ❤as usual❤❤❤
I didn’t even know about half of these facts! Thanks for sharing!
The minute I see a celebrity or an influencer talking about a product I just ignore it. The probably didn't buy it and they might not even like it. Its hard finding genuine influencers. That's why I ignore them😂
Hi Kyra! I love the new filming location! Hope all is good with you and your family. 🌱 x
Unless it’s a reputable seller, honestly I just buy directly on Amazon, or from Target, or wherever. It may or may not cost you a few dollars more, but honestly- I think the peace of mind sometimes is worth it so your product is legitimate.
Plus if you’re supporting a small business, the money will go directly to them and not commissioned to other entities. This has drastically reduced the number of times having to send something back. Or if you can buy in person and locally- do that. You can evaluate if the product will work for you also, as compared to online where sometimes, you can only go by reviews.
And don’t forget to skin test anything new you buy. If you’re not sure about putting it on or in your body, always patch test to avoid reactions.
All I ordered this week is a power bank to charge my sons tablet since I am about to get slammed by a hurricane in Florida tomorrow. Besides that… nothing else.
I've been wearing Hypnotic Poison for yearssssssssssssuh now and I'll occasionally add it to a Christmas or birthday list. My dad is used to go to the store but the last couple times he used Amazon. The first time was fine, it was the real product. This last time, absolutely not. EVERYTHING about the packaging looked authentic but the smell that comes out is definitely not my perfume. I tried contacting the seller and they refuse to even respond to me 😢😒
Eta: i tried reaching out to Amazon but they said my dad would have to file a claim. My old cranky dad doesn't think its that big of a deal and doesn't think the scent is that different. Its like he doesn't care that he was scammed as well
This is so refreshing, thank you!
Can you make a second video about eBay please? I shop on eBay a lot and I haven’t had any of the above problems yet and whenever I do have a problem, I get my money back.
I personally have never shopped on EBay so I wouldn’t know much about that site unfortunately.
Good video!xx
Another great video thank you😀
I actually deleted my old Amazon account.
Made a new one and only use it for ebooks for my kindle. That’s it no other orders since the beginning of the year :)
I wanna get an air purifier prime day
@@Calbizzle honestly that’s SO worth it 🙌🏼
@@Calbizzle my air purifiers were worth the money for me. It’s reduced dust and cooking smells.
Preach Kyra! You are spot on. Love your videos!
What’s the documentary called on Netflix
I would like to know as well, please!
I have it linked in the description box above. I believe it’s called “broken”.
Things are on my wish lists and buy later on Amazon but there’s nothing I absolutely need right now from Amazon so won’t be purchasing anything 😊
The only reason to put as much stuff in your car as they show in that video, is if life has taken a turn and that car is now your home
Thank you
♥
Not buying anything today!
