I love these product comparisons and how it really makes you take a step back to think about what we'll spend our money on just because it's what is popular!
plus size friends, beware of skims. if you are not an hourglass shape or pear skims is not true to size. I wear a 20/22 or a 2X everywhere else and I am an apple shape. in Skims most underwear/bottoms dig like hell into my belly even in a 4X and pulled up to the smallest part of my midsection (like under my boobs), the tops are tight to the body on me even in a 4X. this may just be a preference for me but I am miserable if things dig into my belly.I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem?
the maybelline super stay ink crayon in lead the way is probably a better dupe for pillow talk! I was in a wedding and I didnt wanna do the full price one hehe
I’ve been using S/M for 4-5 years now with probably 15-20 styles between my family of 5. They are the best. Bought them for my extended family for Christmas one year and they too love them. Some cups come with two different style of lids. And I’ve been using the same straws that have come with the cups for years, they hold up well.
Carrie do you have pillow talk in medium or in original? They look so similar on some people to me so I can’t tell! But that may account for the dupe not being a dupe???
I never had a Stanley but I discovered Simple modern insulated cups around 4 years ago when I first became pregnant and I’ve been a loyal customer ever since. They have a life time warden and actually honor it and every cup you purchase they donate a portion. My daughter (3years old) has sensory processing disorder and exclusivity uses the 12oz classic straw cup and I recently warranted it and they were so sweet they sent us 3 replacement cup bc they are sadly discontinuing this cup and wanted to make sure she had a stock of the only cup she will drink out of. Such an amazing company ❤️❤️❤️
Clicking on this video drinking out of my S/M cup without even knowing it was in the video! I bought one for myself and got one from my bestie for Christmas. I love this cup so much, and just saw that they come in so many fun & cute colors. I love the lid so much better then the design of the Stanley.
I’m obsessed with Simple Modern. Their waterbottles & coffee mugs are so leakproof that I can put them in a backback without worries. I do have the “Stanley Style” SM now & one thing to note is it does come with an alternate lid for sipping.
I have a Simple Modern coffee cup that is leakproof-you push down on the top to open & drink-love it! Also have a SM dupe for the Bogg bag. $59.99 vs $90. same thing
Love simple modern. Everyone in my house has one and we all had ours for years, they keep our cold or hot. I use mind for work, I use for both hot and ice coffee, it will keep my drink cold or hot for 8 hours and more. None of cups have leaked.
Ladies and gents, you are all sleeping on the Stanley iceflow flip straw bottle. Omg. It’s the best. It DOES NOT leak no matter what you do to it, hasn’t got the huge side handle so it’s way more convenient for taking out and about and you can throw it in your bag. Worth every penny.
The simply modern cups are the greatest thing ever made in my opinion! My only complaint is that the cute little straw toppers everyone uses don’t fit on the straw 😢. That being said, I have 2 SM tumblers and am deeply in love with them both
I bought the kids version of the simple modern cup and I love it. It’s only 24oz so it’s not big and heavy. I got the neon green one and it’s so fun. OH and it’s leakproof 😂
I know I’m late here but wanted to mention to everyone interested in water bottles. For the cup keeping things cold for awhile: if you drop it enough (sometimes it’s even once), the double insulation will break and it won’t keep your drink nearly as cold.
Hi Carrie! I really liked this type pf video - original vs dupe, definitely want more if you’d like to make some 🥰 Also, could you do a follow up review on your Hokas and how they stood the test of time of using them? 😊
I live in europe and I just dont get the whole stanley cup thing. Like its a cup. Why people are crazy about CUP and buy multiple of them? like 10 years later are they still happy that they bought 10 different cups and used up to 500 on them? 😅
I've been using Stanley cups and bottles for many years, and have had ice last for up to two days. I'll definitely choose Stanley or Thermos every time.
Keep it up! Love your comarisons series. Would love to see the skims vs dupe in a light color like white or cream where. 1. Bra bulge shows more and 1. Sweat shows more. Especially would love to see a daylong wear test like you did with the Stanley/Simple Modern cups!
My friend and her kids LOVE their Stanley cups. For me, I stick with Contigo. They are a fraction of the price, don't leak and the company actually replaces them at no charge if they get damaged! P.S. Would you possibly do a Shapewear review? I can't find any that doesn't roll down. 😕
Hey fellow Carrie girly, I recently tried Honeylove for my wedding (the shorts) and had a great experience with them. They have boning so don’t roll down and are pretty comfy considering they are shapewear. There are oodles of discount codes too so you can often get them 20% off!
I had heard the Pillowtalk dupes were in different shades. Loreal nude intense in 173 Nu Impertinent and NYX lip liner in peakaboo neutral. I have both and I love them -- not too pink.
Where are your blue trousers/pants from during the skims testing? Are they the Halara pants I keep seeing everywhere? I’ve probably missed a testing video but they look super flattering on you xx
The cup one is interesting, even though Stanley does not claim to be leakproof. Reading the claims from the company seems key here. Thanks for the video ❤
Love dupes. How about Spiced Petal from Flower Beauty. Had that for a couple of years as a dupe for Pillow Talk and have never looked back. It’s a good one.
you should try out the owala water bottle! my friend is a nurse and loves her; our 5mo was in the hospital for a week and 4 of the nurses on her floor had the owala and they said they tried all the other tiktok water bottles and liked the owala better. i first heard of owala from Jessica Braun on youtube all this to say: please test it outtttt
I got the Amazon one a couple months ago, not as a dupe but because it was big and can go in the car drink holder. It falls ALL the time I hate it so much. I always tip it over, I don't know if Stanley Cup is as unstable but It's important to note if you have a low space awareness, it's not for you!
What's hilarious to me is that my Dad has had a big 'ol Stanley thermos in his camping gear since (probably) before I was born. 😂 I do of course have a sensibly sized Stanley cup of my own, but the Simply Modern ones are better... I have one of those too!😝
If anyone wants a lead free insulated water bottle/tumbler sort of thing, i do stand by hydroflask. I know not everyone is concerned about the possibility of lead leaking into the parts that touch the liquid you'll ingest since most brands only have that issue if the bottle/tumbler gets damaged. But as someone who is clumsy and drops stuff all the time, i decided to switch to hydroflask just in case 😂 tjmaxx has a bunch of hydroflask water bottles recently so you can save a little bit. I also got an owala water bottle from my friend and it's pretty nice (and lead free as far as i know)
I got 2 hydro flasks a 1lt for me and a .5 lt for my son at school both are really good at their job and are much cheaper than a Stanley also good for not leaking. Downside, is handle small and you need to buy different tops to change the drinking method (UK)
I think “dupe” is the correct word for most of these. Especially the skims top. “Replica” may have been what you were thinking and non of these would fall under that category. Close but no cigar.
I had a Stanley for one day and it’s because i knocked it over and it spilled EVERYWHERE. I’ll have to stay a hydroflask girly bc that thing does NOT leak.
The quality of that Skims dupe tee is terrible not worth 20 bucks I ordered one a few months back it fell apart after one wash the stitching was coming apart etc

Same exact issue! Have to size up like 2-3 sizes!
I have her maternity nursing bras and an XL literally doesn’t even cover my nipples and I’m usually a size 10. I don’t get the sizing at all.
the maybelline super stay ink crayon in lead the way is probably a better dupe for pillow talk! I was in a wedding and I didnt wanna do the full price one hehe
Thank youuuu! The comments we need ❤
and also with the superstay vinyl ink in "lippy" over the top 👌 it wears SO well, looks exactly the same...also smells good haha
Yes! This!
Dear makeup oracles, I just bought Lead the Way and its basically undistuingishable from my natural color. How to make it pop? Gloss or lipliner tips?
@@1n6r1dYou could top it with a lip gloss or use it as a lip liner and fill it in or top it with any lipstick you’d like.
When you used a thermometer my nerdy little heart was so happy. Legit science ppl get your cold water with simple modern! 😂
also obsessed with your fuzzy top. that color is beautiful on you!
Brumate cups are where its at. Completely leakproof, straw or no straw. Their coozies are amazing. The COOLER they have?! Obsessed.
Love their coozies!
I’ve been using S/M for 4-5 years now with probably 15-20 styles between my family of 5. They are the best. Bought them for my extended family for Christmas one year and they too love them. Some cups come with two different style of lids. And I’ve been using the same straws that have come with the cups for years, they hold up well.
I LOVE how seriously you took the Stanley comparison. You’re the best
Wait how did I not know that the Stanley cup had a sipping part 😂 i’ve had mine for about six months. I love your videos!
“We love women in STEM” 😂
the thrifted blue sweater turned out to be such a good purchase!! it looks incredible on you
THE DUPE POLICE 💀😂 always love your dupe/review videos, Carrie!
Carrie do you have pillow talk in medium or in original? They look so similar on some people to me so I can’t tell! But that may account for the dupe not being a dupe???
She wrote medium in lipstick & pink nude for the liner
Babe wake up Carrie posted
Thank you for your investigative work ☺️☺️
Please make this a series, 💕!!!❤

Oh wow! That's actually so nice of them. Good customer service can really make or break a brand
Not the Jaclyn Hill lipstick trauma... 😂😂😂 SAME. Tho I gotta say bubbles are easy to form in lipstick ❤😂

I use and love the Iron Flask. Also on Amazon. I have not seen anyone else talk about them. It's in the middle cost-wise between Stanley and SM.
I got a Stanley and a dupe and like my dupe better. And I decorated it with stickers. So cute
i love ur hair sm (like an extra amount in this video LOL) you are so pretty
“the dupe police” 😂😂😂
I love Simple Modern, but I just got my 1st Meoky and I will never look back!
Love this! Also, off-topic but those blue trousers are GORGEOUS! Where did you get them?
Love the comparisons! And absolutely love that royal blue top and your hair!
I know I’m late here but wanted to mention to everyone interested in water bottles. For the cup keeping things cold for awhile: if you drop it enough (sometimes it’s even once), the double insulation will break and it won’t keep your drink nearly as cold.
Hi, what size did you buy your skims?
I use the Owala cup and I love it. I'd love to see you test it out as a dupe.
Idk if im late to the game and i am the worst at noticing things, but the slight editing changes such as the jaclyn hill shade killed me 😂😂
Hi Carrie! I really liked this type pf video - original vs dupe, definitely want more if you’d like to make some 🥰
Also, could you do a follow up review on your Hokas and how they stood the test of time of using them? 😊
You look STUNNING in that blue sweater. Are you kidding? You’re always pretty, but omg. 💙

I also don’t understand the craze. And honestly I think that style of cup is ugly. 😅🫣
Americans also have a thing about cold water- we like our water cold and most restaurants serve ice water as a standard 🤷🏽♀️
@@centrality24 I had to check what 32 f is in celsius. Like jeez, I cant even imagine drinking so cold water 😂
I love my water cold, never had one metal cup that didn’t keep it cold the entire time I drank, idg the hype
I've been using Stanley cups and bottles for many years, and have had ice last for up to two days. I'll definitely choose Stanley or Thermos every time.

I got my Stanley dupe at home goods for $15. They have so many cute and affordable tumblers!
Try maybelline colorsensational shaping lip liner 125 magnetic mauve!
Your editing has been so good lately lol crack me up

@@abbymyers5072 Thanks!!
That blue looks so good on you!!💙
Lol i just finished ur vlog and saw this in the recs and was literally like "oh more carrie yay" 💕😂
You look gorgeous ! That sweater is fire 💙🩵💙
I love the sleekness of the simple modern.
skims are unmatched 😅 i’ve spent way too much on them but i love everything
Thankyou go honest review I loved it and would watch your videos bcoz you don’t fake reviews
the blue sweater on you is beautiful!
Okay I just need to say your hair has never been better than this video 😍
I genuinely love these videos and your deinfluencing videos. Just refreshing content. 😊
The dupe vids are some of my fave!
I had heard the Pillowtalk dupes were in different shades. Loreal nude intense in 173 Nu Impertinent and NYX lip liner in peakaboo neutral. I have both and I love them -- not too pink.
Where are your blue trousers/pants from during the skims testing? Are they the Halara pants I keep seeing everywhere? I’ve probably missed a testing video but they look super flattering on you xx
The editing @ 3:42 has me CACKLING 😂😂😂
Love videos like this! I like that you're a harsh dupe police lol!
The cup one is interesting, even though Stanley does not claim to be leakproof. Reading the claims from the company seems key here. Thanks for the video ❤
Love these dupe videos, please keep doing them!!
omg i would love to see a polene cyme bag dupe review!
Love dupes. How about Spiced Petal from Flower Beauty. Had that for a couple of years as a dupe for Pillow Talk and have never looked back. It’s a good one.
There's a Brumate Era tumbler that I heard is also good and leakproof

all this to say: please test it outtttt
Not me not knowing I could swivel my Stanley lid to a mouth piece. 🤣 I’ve only had it like a year.
Omg I had the lip products dupes but never tried them together. It’s so pretty.
Wooooo love these videos!!!! 💫💓
Where did you get your flower towels?
I have the hydrojug!! Its AWESOME super leak proof with the flip straw

i was having such a boring sad day, thank u for posting Carrie ❤️ always brightens up my day
It's not a dupe but I love my Yeti cup.
I KNOW there has to be a much closer dupe to Pillow Talk out there. What about the newer ELF O face lipsticks??
We are a simple modern house and I love them so much.
Where is your necklace from?
I love the fuzzy blue shirt you are wearing in this video. Is it in your LTKI link?
I think “dupe” is the correct word for most of these. Especially the skims top. “Replica” may have been what you were thinking and non of these would fall under that category. Close but no cigar.
The simply modern cup looks so much prettier too. Just an FYI L'Oreal tests on animals, CT & NYX do not though :)
Try owala water bottles.
Owala is the best water bottle!
Owala is THE BEST
I had a Stanley for one day and it’s because i knocked it over and it spilled EVERYWHERE. I’ll have to stay a hydroflask girly bc that thing does NOT leak.
Love you Carrie, buenas tardes from Baja CA 💚🤍❤️
Speaking of sweaty t shirt issues… any deodorant recs for fellow sweaty girls 😂
Do not sleep on the Brumate Era tumbler; it does not leak with the straw in!
But it’s so expensive!!!
❤ yey this look fun
Please call yourself the Dupe Police and make a Dupe Police series omg
The quality of that Skims dupe tee is terrible not worth 20 bucks I ordered one a few months back it fell apart after one wash the stitching was coming apart etc
dupe police hehe but yeah
The simple modern is not dishwasher safe, either so if that’s a priority I wouldn’t get the simple modern.
I think fairest nude is a dupe for the original pillow talk…not pillow talk medium which is deeper.
