I have the Neutrogena Hypdro boost. I purchased it a long time ago when I first started watching Dr Dray. I’m almost to the end and I will not repurchase. BC as you said there are many other good dupes out there.
A great better "dupe" for the neutrogena water cream, for us Brazilians (thank God 🙌🏼) is from the (also) Brazilian brand Natura, which is cruelty free, treats people ans the environment right... The Natura Chronos Acqua Biohidratante Renovador, has hyaluronic acids and prebiotics from plants from the Amazon rainforest... I LOVE it ❤️

Hey Cassandra big fan this side. I am suffering from a skin disease and I don't know what is it. What happen is my face becomes patchy and dry during winters. These white patches are so dry and I feel like my skin is shedding. I visited many doctor but none of their suggested medicine helped me out. Some says that it's nothing just calcium deficiency. Some says that it's due to dandruff. They would recommend me face washes, shampoos,and face creams that are so expensive. And that okay but the problem is none of these helped me out. So I am here .you are so knowledgeable and I think can help me out. Reply soon winters are about to come and I don't want to suffer again.
me neither, but I’m able to get them through courier services. it’s like having a PO box over in Miami. Then they ship it back to your country :) maybe look into it
@@emmalouise8789 It doesn't have to be bad, it has to be honest and contructive, friends are the ones who can best call each other out and make each other be better.
Yes! And the difference between dry scalp and dandruff! They are not the same and shouldn’t be treated the same. Dandruff is a type of seborrhoea and you should use medicinal shampoo, dry scalp can get dryer by those shampoos and make your scalp even itchier
I have to agree with Cassandra on the fact that although Neutrogena isn’t the best skincare brand, the hydroboost range is damn good, it really helped my skin when I used their cleanser and gel cream
Although they are really good I’m sure you can find good dupes or products just as effective for the same price :) I use a lot more pharmacy brands nowadays like Uriage, La Roche Posay, Avene etc ... it’s not that expensive and it works really well :)
I love several Neutrogena products. Their HydroBoost Skin Tint, MoistureBoost Lip Crayon sticks, Revitalizing Lip Balms, and UltraSheer Sunscreen Spray are all really good products.
i love the neutrogena ultra gentle cleanser because i don’t have super sensitive skin, but it’s gentle and cleans my skin good but without stripping it
OMG please please do a video on Natrium. Yes, they create good products, but I'm still so burned and honestly annoyed by the disrespect from Susan to her audience. TBH the niacinamide cream was trash, but their niacinamide serum was decent.
The vitamin c is good! It doesn’t smell bad at all. Truly love it but idk if it really helped my hyperpigmentation because I never took before and after pictures
Honestly, i don't feel like she cheated her fan base or her customers by not revealing that she's the owner of naturium. She did that so that her other skincare reviewer friends DID NOT GIVE A BIASED REVIEW just because they all know her and are friends with her. That's why she didn't tell them
@@warsofstars what is wrong is wrong...does she mean to say that others in the beauty industry had such low morals that they would have given biased opinions? Really? That is a horrible opinion she had of her 'friends ' .
I think the whole ‘hush hush don’t talk about naturium’ is so shady in the skincare world and that thumbnail was clickbait when you did not go into it how you feel about the brand when you feel so free to give your opinion on others. This is the reason why being part of a ‘community’ is not a good idea when you are doing reviews of products from that community. Don’t mention the brand at all if you don’t want go into the shadiness of the launch or just say you are too biased to give an honest opinion. But to actually recommend a product from them without going into the brand in A VIDEO ABOUT BRANDS AND PRODUCTS...just no.
Dear Cassandra, I am a MD myself (not dermatologist though). First, GREAT JOB of explaining highly complex physiological issues so nicely, comprehensive and simple! Also, I love your sense of humor, so, keep doing this! My question is whether you could have a video on solely organic, no plastic cosmetics, including sunscreen. I am a passionate environmentalist, having a daughter myself, and strongly believing that our actions need to change in order to preserve this planet for the future generations. Could you also maybe recommend more no plastic products? I live in Switzerland and no plastic products are quite expensive, however for me it is worth to invest in. Could you please explain the formulas of organic, no plastic sunscreens? Thank you so much for your work! Best wishes, Tatiana
Everytime Cassandra playfully throws the product she's holding, there's always that imaginary scenario in my mind I have of it being glass packaging and her failing to catch it 😂 #scaredAF
Uuuuuggghhhh, I love your whole vibe and cutthroat honesty when it comes to skincare. So refreshing to hear someone that just doesn't care about placating these instagram- obsessed brands.
Just want to say that Naturium is literally going to be one of the early skincare community scandals. 😒 I don't understand how NOT using your platform and being honest that you're a cofounder is a better strategy than being shady about it.
Tbh, I didn’t even know Mario Badesco was popular with young people. The packaging was too unappealing for me to take interest. I thought I was looking at nail polish removers when I saw their facial sprays as Ulta. 🤭
Yeah they seemed like they’re all self-centered and narcissistic. Remember when Kylie Jenner said that ALL her make up products were formulated solely for her own skin tone? *Pretty self-centered, right?* I never believed that Kylie would seriously consider the skin types of her fans when she launched her skincare brand *and sure enough, I was right*
Well, they are just a bunch of girls who got fame out of exposing their private life. That's all. That's what a lot of people have been doing for years. They are "useless"? How sad to say that about a human being that you don't even know! And I really hope you are "useful" to society. And most brand owners don't care about you, they just want your money.
I love this video. It’s a positive spin on anti-hauls. Honestly, I’m here for the tea and I love to hear about sketchy companies doing questionable things, but you’re totally right! We should celebrate success no matter what.
We neeeeda a Cassandra for HAIR and the goods for ing for hair I neeeed more 2c-3c curly gals that can offer more scientific opinions and I value your opinion. Girl even a video about following the curly girl method and help navigating that world when you’re not curly enoughhh but need help lol. Also your curls are BEAUTIFUL I want to know more about your hair!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️❤️ edit; talking about when her hair is natural not this vids curls lol
I really really hope you do an mlm skincare video because I have been duped by it I won’t lie. I have since stoped and would love to hear your opinions on a few choice mlm skincare brands!
My new “emergency” wipes are just a microfiber “makeup eraser” type cloth and a good micellar water(I have like 2 capable of easily removing waterproof sunscreen and waterproof makeup).
I can't wait for some skincare brand to fly Cassandra over to SK so that she can gush over the many many cheap and so much better skincare products there.
St.ives moisturizer broke me out when I was 14 that's why I believed that oily skin people shouldn't use moisturizer because I was afraid to break out but now that I'm more educated my skin loves with its hydrated!!
I just used the Retinol Clearing Oil from Dermologica as part of my nighttime skincare routine, and am feeling *super* validated. Thank you, Cassandra!
My dupe for Sunday Riley Good Genes is Versed Brightening Serum. Used Good Genes samples but never bought it, too pricey. Versed Serum is $20 and it works beautifully.
Cassandra, could you make a video *just* about SPF? What do I do if I wear make up- how do I reapply? What if I get super oily and need to dab my face - do I reapply? Do I have to wash my face in between reapplications? What sunscreen works best for acne prone oily skin? Literally everyone is looking for the perfect sunscreen and I feel like nobody has found it, so maybe you could make this a series? Sunscreen info, Sunscreen for oily skin, Sunscreen for dry skin etc.
Came here for Naturium because I absolutely love their products but cannnnnot watch her. Dr. Vanita Rattan gives a very honest review unbiased review of Naturium
This is such a good idea and original topic, and I love your approach to it of "giving credit where credit is due" but providing dupes so as not to compromise morals and values. Very cool.
I month ago i have a very bad breakout on my forehead, i try everything but nothing seem to work. One day, i was so sad and go on TH-cam as i usually did, and my oh my, Cassandra was on my recommended pages, so i watched it. I finished the first videos, then the second then the third. I feel very educated watching her video, and shes my life saver. Thank you Cassandra, keep making good videos like this🤗
I'd love a cruelty free dupe for La Roche de Posay tinted mineral light fluid sunscreen. It's so great, perfect silky texture, makes my skin feel dewy but not greasy, but $37 and not CF!
I just came here to tell everyone that if your favorite products are sold out, discontinued or just too expensive, EBAY! Also, it's a great option for people like me who wanted to try that D.E tlc sukari baby facial without actually supporting drunk elephant. Instead, I supported some mom making a living somewhere! It's a win-win! And no, I'm not saying I support these companies but as a skin care fanatic, I can only stand to hear so many people say a product is great, and praise it without trying it myself. I'm a curious cat, sue me. But like I said, my support goes out to small sellers like those on eBay. And yes, I'm one of those small sellers, but it's how I was able to figure it all out, and come share with you all, so enjoy! (Oh, and don't buy from overseas. Refine location and thank me later, as Cass would say 🤣)
@@jetsofaqua2206 not exactly. Stores will purchase products from companies to sell. Let's say sephora buys a whole bunch of product, then a year later the packaging gets redesigned, or it's just too old to comply with their personal guarantees. These stores then lose out on their purchases by selling to liquidation companies that these people purchase with their hard earned money, hoping to flip it for slightly more, in order to put food on the table. These sellers will buy it regardless. My money goes to the seller, and they buy their kids Christmas presents. The chain of command is so far removed, that it's not a direct correlation. My money did not go to drunk elephant. The stores are the ones investing in them, and losing out because not enough people bought it in the store. So then the profit margin in turn goes to the sellers at eBay, mercari, poshmark, etc. But still, my point is that it's much better if anyone is determined on buying/trying something from an immoral company, to hand their money to a small business online then the company itself. It's still the lesser evil regardless, then again as an eBay seller that supports my family by selling things I buy from store closeouts, I am probably bias. But I do understand what you're saying.
Literally yes! Try and buy second hand if possible, I bought a skinfix baby lotion for £4 BRAND NEW UNOPENED while the RRP was 5 x the cost of that. Love me some depop hehe
@@caitieeeee sellers are required to post the expiration, though some products don't have it, they may have a batch code which I usually look up but then again I'm savvy on product research already. Regardless, eBay has a money back guarantee, you demand an instant return if they don't lost the right date. It's not 2005 eBay anymore.
@@biancaourso6983 because she hasn't watched the new documentary about how this younger generation just can't take a break from tech and go have a physical life. Besides, good channels never had to go around saying they make videos. They know how to find their base elsewhere and bring them here.
Jamie Yayme see I’m younger (11) but I spend my time online learning things my dream is to be a dermatologist and I love learning about product formulation! It annoys me the kids who spend their time playing video games and watching family channels instead of learning when they have they have access to whole internet! I want to watch the documentary where can I find it?
Paula’s Choice makes a 25% AHA and 2% BHA weekly peel. It was initially issued as a limited edition but their web site states they are in the process of reissuing it. It’s half the price of the DE and a lovely formulation.
All honesty years ago I didn’t like your channel and videos, but you have turned into a humble, intelligent, young lady in your career. I am a happy subbie and like you and love your content the past couple years. You are awesome 👏 p.s I hardly comment on anything.
tragically, my favorite cleanser is from neutrogena and while Ive found other cleansers that are similar, Ive never found another that has the perfect balance of feels-like-washing-your-face-with-a-moisturizer and not leaving a weird film.
I'm a Single British Gay Man , whom is 40 next year . I'm a Functional , Mindful and put thought into my skincare , I use 8 products- for all 5 steps .
I got the Neutrogena Pink Grapefruit cleanser and.... turns out IT'S THE BEST FOR ME! my acne is finally under control thanks to it! yes it does kinda dry my skin but i just moisturise after!
I feel sooo vindicated you mentioned St. Ives...this brand destroyed my face and I am convinced their apricot scrub from the 90's caused my skin sensitivity and mild rosacea...my skin was never the same.
I know this video was 3 years ago, but this is one of your best videos. I like that you like some products from brands you hate b/c it means you TRY THINGS. It means your opinions are honest through trial and error; the most scientific process. I also dislike ST. Ives but I like that you found something you like and that there are other products similar to it. I've never heard of Saturday Skincare so thanks for that, too. More videos like this one please. For example. I want to use Pacifica and Cocokind but unfortunately, I'm not in my 20's. While nice, they are just not good enough. Clean skincare must include people over 35.
Hi! I was just curious my skin HATES salicylic acid. I can't even use products that have it listed very last on the ingredients list. Is there a video of products that don't have that ingredients?
Kelsey I'm one of the people that destroyed their skins with Mario Badescu's Control Cream... I had very sensitive skin and was so happy to have found this cream that made my skin happy - one year later when I stopped the cream because I couldn't find anymore all hell broke loose. I couldn't even sleep because of the itchiness and inflammation... And now 8 years later my skin is still not back to normal because the barrier is compromised and it has no immunity, so it's extremely sensitive, reactive, dehydrated, I have steroid rosacea (I even got ocular rosacea), I have to spend so much time and money to take care of it. And when I found about the steroids in the cream, on the thread where everybody was discussing there were people complaining of systemic reactions (when the steroid gets absorbed by the body because of prolonged use) - some of them had been hospitalised with Cushing Syndrome. And Mario Badescu never admitted and apologized for this, they are a horrible, unethical company.
How did i guess that you were introducing Neutrogena before introducing Neutrogena ? 😂 Key world : Teenage love. It's delicate to speak about a brand that we were emotionally attached to ... Thank you Cassandra for another amazing video 💕💕💕
being mean to customers is what chased me away from z-palette - I can no longer support Drunk Elephant BTW - this was such a fun video / thanks for providing dupes
Cassandra, it’s quite common for brands to provide talking points for reviewer, particularly if it’s sponsored. I worked in software marketing for a decade and provided speaking points every time we sponsored a review. I appreciate not all influencers work this way but it doesn’t speak to the brands integrity. Larger brands are ultimately responsible to stake holders and therefore have more restrictive protocols. It doesn’t mean the company lacks integrity, it means their tactics are outdated.
If you’re unwilling to recommend a brand because of its marketing practices you shouldn’t be recommending Nuturium. There is no explanation that is required. Susan Yara broke disclosure regulations and should be held accountable. If you hold large corporations up to high standards because of their marketing ethics you should hold start ups to the same standards, especially when one of its founders has an established career in communications. There’s no excuse.
I do have a hard time supporting Naturium though (at least for now, and from what I have seen), given the fact that the founder did "cheat and lie" about it, when there were better ways to introduce the skincare line to the public. The fact that it is Susan Yara's brand isn't a reason for me to use double standards.
Honestly, if we are letting any influencer tell us how to spend our money or if your purchase depends solely on an influencers consent then that’s a you problem not a them problem.
It’s crazy that Sunday Riley did that because I’ve been repurchasing her Luna oil, tidal cream, good genes, and vitamin c since 2014. I’ve tried soooo many things to try to replace them but there’s just no replacement for them. My skin loves those products.
Cassandra has done quite a few videos on acne, as she suffered it for many years. Maybe search "acne" on her channel. She also recently did a video called "Treating Adult Acne" which may be of help. Here is the link th-cam.com/video/Y-S_bk3Nfak/w-d-xo.html
Olay Total Effects is the only moisturizer that hasn't blocked my pores. I know it has fragrance (which is barely detectable) but for me at least, it's great.
No, don't trust you lol I actually enjoy the earthy odor so I'm glad that I ignored those complaining. It may not be for everyone but it isn't as offending as some make it out to be. I recommend people getting a sample and deciding then.
Thank you so much for your advice! I would never have time to find all of this information myself. Also, I have mad respect for you for having such strong morals and ethics!
I think your videos are the only ones I watch from beginning to end. I love how informative your videos are 🥰 you don't know how much all this information has helped me to fix my acne situation 😬
the thumbnail is everything, and i am early. having just slathered myself in my nightly skincare routine, i’m so ready to watch this. my heart is content. 😂🥰❤️
The thumb nail is off putting. Because she is a role model to young girls. I wouldn’t like to see a young person give the middle finger just because they don’t like something. She is very smart and have a lot to give. This isn’t necessarily behavior for her channel.
I use all the ordinary , dermalogica and hylamide but I’ve recently been using some of the hado labo line and I love it, would love to know your thoughts on this brand .. love your videos ...thankyou beautiful 👑😍💋
The peptide moisturizer from DE burned my skin and I told them and they said it must be something else I’m using (I’ve been using the same basic routine for 2 years 🧐) ugh
I wish Neutrogena went cruelty free. I love this one specific face wash and I tried many others, but I always come back to this one. It just works so well for me.
Soooo which of these would you actually buy? Because same.

Although they are really good I’m sure you can find good dupes or products just as effective for the same price :) I use a lot more pharmacy brands nowadays like Uriage, La Roche Posay, Avene etc ... it’s not that expensive and it works really well :)
I love several Neutrogena products. Their HydroBoost Skin Tint, MoistureBoost Lip Crayon sticks, Revitalizing Lip Balms, and UltraSheer Sunscreen Spray are all really good products.
@@londonsbaes these products aren't available in my country ;-;
i love the neutrogena ultra gentle cleanser because i don’t have super sensitive skin, but it’s gentle and cleans my skin good but without stripping it
OMG please please do a video on Natrium. Yes, they create good products, but I'm still so burned and honestly annoyed by the disrespect from Susan to her audience. TBH the niacinamide cream was trash, but their niacinamide serum was decent.
Please because I really don't understand the issue that people are having with Naturium and I still like Susan.
The vitamin c is good! It doesn’t smell bad at all. Truly love it but idk if it really helped my hyperpigmentation because I never took before and after pictures
@@andreclark9177 susan reviewed naturium product before she announced that she was the founder of naturium
Honestly, i don't feel like she cheated her fan base or her customers by not revealing that she's the owner of naturium. She did that so that her other skincare reviewer friends DID NOT GIVE A BIASED REVIEW just because they all know her and are friends with her. That's why she didn't tell them
@@warsofstars what is wrong is wrong...does she mean to say that others in the beauty industry had such low morals that they would have given biased opinions? Really? That is a horrible opinion she had of her 'friends ' .
I think the whole ‘hush hush don’t talk about naturium’ is so shady in the skincare world and that thumbnail was clickbait when you did not go into it how you feel about the brand when you feel so free to give your opinion on others. This is the reason why being part of a ‘community’ is not a good idea when you are doing reviews of products from that community. Don’t mention the brand at all if you don’t want go into the shadiness of the launch or just say you are too biased to give an honest opinion. But to actually recommend a product from them without going into the brand in A VIDEO ABOUT BRANDS AND PRODUCTS...just no.
I see what you mean and you’re right- their reviews on each other’s product lines are totally untrustworthy.
Dear Cassandra,
I am a MD myself (not dermatologist though). First, GREAT JOB of explaining highly complex physiological issues so nicely, comprehensive and simple! Also, I love your sense of humor, so, keep doing this! My question is whether you could have a video on solely organic, no plastic cosmetics, including sunscreen. I am a passionate environmentalist, having a daughter myself, and strongly believing that our actions need to change in order to preserve this planet for the future generations. Could you also maybe recommend more no plastic products? I live in Switzerland and no plastic products are quite expensive, however for me it is worth to invest in. Could you please explain the formulas of organic, no plastic sunscreens? Thank you so much for your work! Best wishes, Tatiana
Most store brands like up&up or equate aren't cruelty free, however cvs health/beauty 360 are cruelty free so 10/10 recommend.
Wow I’m super surprised but impressed with CVS! Thank you for the heads up I would’ve never guessed!
Everytime Cassandra playfully throws the product she's holding, there's always that imaginary scenario in my mind I have of it being glass packaging and her failing to catch it 😂 #scaredAF
Herbivore Prism exfoliating glow facial could be a dupe for the drunk elephant - it has 20% AHA + 5% BHA!
5%???
@@noelenepowermusic ok I understand but Willow Bark is not BHA and if that's the name of the product then it is quite misleading
Uuuuuggghhhh, I love your whole vibe and cutthroat honesty when it comes to skincare. So refreshing to hear someone that just doesn't care about placating these instagram- obsessed brands.
Just want to say that Naturium is literally going to be one of the early skincare community scandals. 😒 I don't understand how NOT using your platform and being honest that you're a cofounder is a better strategy than being shady about it.
Tell em Cass!! Before I watch, I just want to say: *I DO NOT WANT TO SEE A MARIO BADESCU ADVERT ON MY FEED EVER **_AGAINNN!_*
Same!!!
Tbh, I didn’t even know Mario Badesco was popular with young people. The packaging was too unappealing for me to take interest. I thought I was looking at nail polish removers when I saw their facial sprays as Ulta. 🤭
SOOO ON POINT about Kylie skin and the kardashian empire. So useless for society and they could care less about us. (: go Cassandra goooo
Emy :) I am afraid they are not only useless but harmfull for the society
Yeah they seemed like they’re all self-centered and narcissistic. Remember when Kylie Jenner said that ALL her make up products were formulated solely for her own skin tone? *Pretty self-centered, right?*
I never believed that Kylie would seriously consider the skin types of her fans when she launched her skincare brand *and sure enough, I was right*
Well, they are just a bunch of girls who got fame out of exposing their private life. That's all. That's what a lot of people have been doing for years. They are "useless"? How sad to say that about a human being that you don't even know! And I really hope you are "useful" to society. And most brand owners don't care about you, they just want your money.
lol 99% of brands care more about profit than you, not just the kardashians 💀
Your Jenna Marbles reference makes me realize (again) how much I miss her.
I love this video. It’s a positive spin on anti-hauls. Honestly, I’m here for the tea and I love to hear about sketchy companies doing questionable things, but you’re totally right! We should celebrate success no matter what.
Kills me when she throws the product randomly and awkwardly 😂😂
damn i waited the whole time for some naturium tea
When you mentioned Dr. Idriss my face lit up, she's a queen.
We neeeeda a Cassandra for HAIR and the goods for ing for hair I neeeed more 2c-3c curly gals that can offer more scientific opinions and I value your opinion. Girl even a video about following the curly girl method and help navigating that world when you’re not curly enoughhh but need help lol. Also your curls are BEAUTIFUL I want to know more about your hair!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️❤️ edit; talking about when her hair is natural not this vids curls lol
Yeees!! Hair and scalp health
Join the CGM groups on Facebook.
yesss i gave 2b/c hair and i can never find good vids!
@@jifij89 swavycurlycourtney has a similar hairtype and does fairly good videos re this
You may want to try Manes by Mel TH-cam channel. I have very curly hair and she has taught me a lot about hair care.
I really really hope you do an mlm skincare video because I have been duped by it I won’t lie. I have since stoped and would love to hear your opinions on a few choice mlm skincare brands!
My new “emergency” wipes are just a microfiber “makeup eraser” type cloth and a good micellar water(I have like 2 capable of easily removing waterproof sunscreen and waterproof makeup).
I can't agree for more! And it's more efficient tbh
That's awesome!
I can't wait for some skincare brand to fly Cassandra over to SK so that she can gush over the many many cheap and so much better skincare products there.
St.ives moisturizer broke me out when I was 14 that's why I believed that oily skin people shouldn't use moisturizer because I was afraid to break out but now that I'm more educated my skin loves with its hydrated!!
I subscribed immediately when she said " I have a problem with the entire Kardashian clan" 🤣😂
Edit : She said exactly what i feel about them!!!!
I just used the Retinol Clearing Oil from Dermologica as part of my nighttime skincare routine, and am feeling *super* validated. Thank you, Cassandra!
My dupe for Sunday Riley Good Genes is Versed Brightening Serum. Used Good Genes samples but never bought it, too pricey. Versed Serum is $20 and it works beautifully.
Cassandra, could you make a video *just* about SPF? What do I do if I wear make up- how do I reapply? What if I get super oily and need to dab my face - do I reapply? Do I have to wash my face in between reapplications? What sunscreen works best for acne prone oily skin? Literally everyone is looking for the perfect sunscreen and I feel like nobody has found it, so maybe you could make this a series? Sunscreen info, Sunscreen for oily skin, Sunscreen for dry skin etc.
Woulf be helpful for me too
Came here for Naturium because I absolutely love their products but cannnnnot watch her. Dr. Vanita Rattan gives a very honest review unbiased review of Naturium
As a Dermalogica certified esthetician, I've seen people get amazing and serious results from the clearing oil.
This is such a good idea and original topic, and I love your approach to it of "giving credit where credit is due" but providing dupes so as not to compromise morals and values. Very cool.
Naturium is actually a good skin care line I know what she did was wrong but the products are really good u should give her another chance
I month ago i have a very bad breakout on my forehead, i try everything but nothing seem to work. One day, i was so sad and go on TH-cam as i usually did, and my oh my, Cassandra was on my recommended pages, so i watched it. I finished the first videos, then the second then the third. I feel very educated watching her video, and shes my life saver.
Thank you Cassandra, keep making good videos like this🤗
Hey the in video links are not popping up at the right time. Just thought I'd let you know
I love my UFO oil. It works better than anything else I've ever tried, and have been suffering from acne for over 15 years.
I totally agree with her about st. ives. I hate their scrubs so much! I break out so bad when I use the product so i decided to stop using it.
Yay!
omg i remember using the st ives walnut scrub bc i read somewhere that gigi hadid used it 😩😭
I read somewhere that she put toothpaste on her acne to get rid of it and I had a red mark on my face for a month 😭😭😭
You are a person full of charisma and thanks for the tips
I'd love a cruelty free dupe for La Roche de Posay tinted mineral light fluid sunscreen. It's so great, perfect silky texture, makes my skin feel dewy but not greasy, but $37 and not CF!
Another dupe for the TLC Baby Facial from DE is the Paula's Choice 25% AHA + 2% BHA Exfoliant Peel!
Thank you! And Yeah that Hydroboost line is my savior... It's the only moisturizer I use because its cheaper BUT it has helped me so much .
I just came here to tell everyone that if your favorite products are sold out, discontinued or just too expensive, EBAY!
Also, it's a great option for people like me who wanted to try that D.E tlc sukari baby facial without actually supporting drunk elephant. Instead, I supported some mom making a living somewhere! It's a win-win!
And no, I'm not saying I support these companies but as a skin care fanatic, I can only stand to hear so many people say a product is great, and praise it without trying it myself. I'm a curious cat, sue me.
But like I said, my support goes out to small sellers like those on eBay. And yes, I'm one of those small sellers, but it's how I was able to figure it all out, and come share with you all, so enjoy!
(Oh, and don't buy from overseas. Refine location and thank me later, as Cass would say 🤣)
You're still supporting drunk elephant by buying them indirectly from another seller
@@jetsofaqua2206 not exactly. Stores will purchase products from companies to sell. Let's say sephora buys a whole bunch of product, then a year later the packaging gets redesigned, or it's just too old to comply with their personal guarantees. These stores then lose out on their purchases by selling to liquidation companies that these people purchase with their hard earned money, hoping to flip it for slightly more, in order to put food on the table. These sellers will buy it regardless. My money goes to the seller, and they buy their kids Christmas presents. The chain of command is so far removed, that it's not a direct correlation. My money did not go to drunk elephant.
The stores are the ones investing in them, and losing out because not enough people bought it in the store. So then the profit margin in turn goes to the sellers at eBay, mercari, poshmark, etc.
But still, my point is that it's much better if anyone is determined on buying/trying something from an immoral company, to hand their money to a small business online then the company itself. It's still the lesser evil regardless, then again as an eBay seller that supports my family by selling things I buy from store closeouts, I am probably bias. But I do understand what you're saying.
Literally yes! Try and buy second hand if possible, I bought a skinfix baby lotion for £4 BRAND NEW UNOPENED while the RRP was 5 x the cost of that. Love me some depop hehe
@@jetsofaqua2206 noooo products off of ebay could easily be out of date or fake. be careful buying skincare off the grey market.
@@caitieeeee sellers are required to post the expiration, though some products don't have it, they may have a batch code which I usually look up but then again I'm savvy on product research already.
Regardless, eBay has a money back guarantee, you demand an instant return if they don't lost the right date. It's not 2005 eBay anymore.
"Jenna marbles taught me that" I.AM.DYING! hahaha best moment of my day!
Cassandra: uploads
Me: CLICKS FASTER THAN THE SPEED OF LIGHT!😂
I make vidz
Why are u everywhere like in slime vids, diy vids, and skincare vids?
@@biancaourso6983 because she hasn't watched the new documentary about how this younger generation just can't take a break from tech and go have a physical life.
Besides, good channels never had to go around saying they make videos. They know how to find their base elsewhere and bring them here.
Jamie Yayme see I’m younger (11) but I spend my time online learning things my dream is to be a dermatologist and I love learning about product formulation! It annoys me the kids who spend their time playing video games and watching family channels instead of learning when they have they have access to whole internet! I want to watch the documentary where can I find it?
LOL "The Elephants Aren't Drunk, The Founder Is."
Hey just a heads up, the first two links (Drunk Elephant and Sunday Riley) are posted backwards.
I noticed that, too.
I justify buying these brands from people directly off Reddit. Then the money isn't going to the brand and that person's product isn't going to waste.
Excited for this!! Gonna do my evening skincare while watching!
Paula’s Choice makes a 25% AHA and 2% BHA weekly peel. It was initially issued as a limited edition but their web site states they are in the process of reissuing it. It’s half the price of the DE and a lovely formulation.
I used the Neutrogena wipes ONCE and broke out. It was terrible!
All honesty years ago I didn’t like your channel and videos, but you have turned into a humble, intelligent, young lady in your career. I am a happy subbie and like you and love your content the past couple years. You are awesome 👏 p.s I hardly comment on anything.
tragically, my favorite cleanser is from neutrogena and while Ive found other cleansers that are similar, Ive never found another that has the perfect balance of feels-like-washing-your-face-with-a-moisturizer and not leaving a weird film.
I'm a Single British Gay Man , whom is 40 next year . I'm a Functional , Mindful and put thought into my skincare , I use 8 products- for all 5 steps .
I'm so glad SOMEONE of the big skincare youtubers broke their silence on Naturium.
I hate how Susan has escaped from the issue.
Channel like Beauty Within, Jadey still work with it
@@serahemy7 I have no idea about beauty within tea. I just know from looking at their channel there was a huge shift from their old videos to now.
@@serahemy7 what happen to beauty within ?
@@fgostoryteller2168 they still promote Naturium
It's so very important to me to put my money where my morals are, and I like to think my moral compass is functioning in accordance with science.
I wish I didn’t love Sunday Riley products, at least I’ve found a few dupes 😭
I got the Neutrogena Pink Grapefruit cleanser and.... turns out IT'S THE BEST FOR ME! my acne is finally under control thanks to it! yes it does kinda dry my skin but i just moisturise after!
I was shocked to see Naturium at Target the other day. Like, whaaat?! That was fast.
She is French-Lebanese American and says only use make up wipes for eye makeup when Tipsy !!! She right ✅ 🍸
I feel sooo vindicated you mentioned St. Ives...this brand destroyed my face and I am convinced their apricot scrub from the 90's caused my skin sensitivity and mild rosacea...my skin was never the same.
I didn't expect these better dupes to be mentioned gosh THANK YOU!!
The dislikes are coming from the brands watching
I know this video was 3 years ago, but this is one of your best videos. I like that you like some products from brands you hate b/c it means you TRY THINGS. It means your opinions are honest through trial and error; the most scientific process. I also dislike ST. Ives but I like that you found something you like and that there are other products similar to it. I've never heard of Saturday Skincare so thanks for that, too. More videos like this one please. For example. I want to use Pacifica and Cocokind but unfortunately, I'm not in my 20's. While nice, they are just not good enough. Clean skincare must include people over 35.
Hi! I was just curious my skin HATES salicylic acid. I can't even use products that have it listed very last on the ingredients list. Is there a video of products that don't have that ingredients?
How do you know your skin doesn’t like SA? Asking for personal info.
thank you for being one of rare real gems on this platform!
You didn't mention the lawsuits against at the Mario line?? That's why they're a no for me, the whole steroid lawsuit scandal
Kelsey I'm one of the people that destroyed their skins with Mario Badescu's Control Cream... I had very sensitive skin and was so happy to have found this cream that made my skin happy - one year later when I stopped the cream because I couldn't find anymore all hell broke loose. I couldn't even sleep because of the itchiness and inflammation... And now 8 years later my skin is still not back to normal because the barrier is compromised and it has no immunity, so it's extremely sensitive, reactive, dehydrated, I have steroid rosacea (I even got ocular rosacea), I have to spend so much time and money to take care of it. And when I found about the steroids in the cream, on the thread where everybody was discussing there were people complaining of systemic reactions (when the steroid gets absorbed by the body because of prolonged use) - some of them had been hospitalised with Cushing Syndrome. And Mario Badescu never admitted and apologized for this, they are a horrible, unethical company.
@@liviusss omg I'm so sorry love I'm sending you well wishes and hoping for the best for your skin!
I’m glad I watched your informative video on Sunday Riley Tysm
Did the mario badescu mask get reformulated? It doesn’t say silver in the ingredients
I think she meant Zinc not silver
How did i guess that you were introducing Neutrogena before introducing Neutrogena ? 😂 Key world : Teenage love.
It's delicate to speak about a brand that we were emotionally attached to ...
Thank you Cassandra for another amazing video 💕💕💕
being mean to customers is what chased me away from z-palette - I can no longer support Drunk Elephant
BTW - this was such a fun video / thanks for providing dupes
Cassandra, it’s quite common for brands to provide talking points for reviewer, particularly if it’s sponsored. I worked in software marketing for a decade and provided speaking points every time we sponsored a review. I appreciate not all influencers work this way but it doesn’t speak to the brands integrity. Larger brands are ultimately responsible to stake holders and therefore have more restrictive protocols. It doesn’t mean the company lacks integrity, it means their tactics are outdated.
If you’re unwilling to recommend a brand because of its marketing practices you shouldn’t be recommending Nuturium. There is no explanation that is required. Susan Yara broke disclosure regulations and should be held accountable. If you hold large corporations up to high standards because of their marketing ethics you should hold start ups to the same standards, especially when one of its founders has an established career in communications. There’s no excuse.
I wanna see Cassandra have her own skincare ! 😍
I just realized the neutrogena water gel has an extra dry one without fragrance or dyes- I have to admit I love this water gel
I do have a hard time supporting Naturium though (at least for now, and from what I have seen), given the fact that the founder did "cheat and lie" about it, when there were better ways to introduce the skincare line to the public. The fact that it is Susan Yara's brand isn't a reason for me to use double standards.
I am READY for Cassandra to GO OFF on MLM skincare brands!!!
Honestly, if we are letting any influencer tell us how to spend our money or if your purchase depends solely on an influencers consent then that’s a you problem not a them problem.
It’s crazy that Sunday Riley did that because I’ve been repurchasing her Luna oil, tidal cream, good genes, and vitamin c since 2014. I’ve tried soooo many things to try to replace them but there’s just no replacement for them. My skin loves those products.
I looove the ufo oil, I'm excited to try that dupe 😜
I been so frustrated I been braking out like crazy again even at 28. Seeing your clear skin makes me feel like shit. Help me please...
Cassandra has done quite a few videos on acne, as she suffered it for many years. Maybe search "acne" on her channel. She also recently did a video called "Treating Adult Acne" which may be of help. Here is the link th-cam.com/video/Y-S_bk3Nfak/w-d-xo.html
Maybe you need light exfoliation now that with age the rate of new skin has slowed.
furuyakeifu I do use exfoliating products but that doesn’t seem to help
Kelly Shoesmith I seen them all I have been fallowing here since she started
My skin is just the wildest it does what it wants literally.
Mario Badescu and Olay don’t get me started on those and also St.Ives
Olay Total Effects is the only moisturizer that hasn't blocked my pores. I know it has fragrance (which is barely detectable) but for me at least, it's great.
Thanks! You’re energy is contagious and you always put a smile on my face. Take care.
Trust me you are not missing out on the UFO oil. It smells horrible and I couldn’t get myself to use to. $80 down the drain🤪
No, don't trust you lol I actually enjoy the earthy odor so I'm glad that I ignored those complaining. It may not be for everyone but it isn't as offending as some make it out to be. I recommend people getting a sample and deciding then.
Patty Lorena That’s great advise! I wish I liked it😊
I feel like I'm just not okay with earthy smells haha. Like the krave beauty great barrier relief, the smell is too much for me 🥺
Lol I love UFO oil and the smell has never bothered me 🤷♀️
Thank you so much for your advice! I would never have time to find all of this information myself. Also, I have mad respect for you for having such strong morals and ethics!
I think your videos are the only ones I watch from beginning to end. I love how informative your videos are 🥰 you don't know how much all this information has helped me to fix my acne situation 😬
I had no idea about Sunday Riley. I use their products. Absolutely changed my skin. I’m sad now :(
St. Ives is great on my feet. Ill give them that 😂
Your videos are a joy to watch! I love your energy and personality
the thumbnail is everything, and i am early. having just slathered myself in my nightly skincare routine, i’m so ready to watch this. my heart is content. 😂🥰❤️
The thumb nail is off putting. Because she is a role model to young girls. I wouldn’t like to see a young person give the middle finger just because they don’t like something. She is very smart and have a lot to give. This isn’t necessarily behavior for her channel.
I use all the ordinary , dermalogica and hylamide but I’ve recently been using some of the hado labo line and I love it, would love to know your thoughts on this brand .. love your videos ...thankyou beautiful 👑😍💋
Please do a review and dupes for Rodan + Fields! ❤
Glow Recipe also contains fragrance.
The peptide moisturizer from DE burned my skin and I told them and they said it must be something else I’m using (I’ve been using the same basic routine for 2 years 🧐) ugh
I wish Neutrogena went cruelty free. I love this one specific face wash and I tried many others, but I always come back to this one. It just works so well for me.
what you say at 10:25 you can see the st ives actually has HA next ingredient in the list right after the watermelon extract. see that at 9:51
Gimmeee aaaaallllll the dupes pls ☺️☺️☺️ love your page, look forward to all your videos !!
