It goes without saying, but I LOVE ALL THESE CREATORS I'M REACTING TO so make sure you go show them love!
HIIIIII
❤️
that's so thoughtful
Hi I have a question. I have been using the aha bha pha miracle cream and it irritates the outer edge of my nose and it’s currently dry and flaky so idk what to do. Any advise???
I'd love to see you respond to Dr. Dray's thoughts on the retinol product! Love your videos and your channel was actually the final push for me to go see my Dermatologist and now I'm on Isotretinoin and can't wait to use some of these products when I'm done! The centella and green tea cleanser has been a dream for me and my currently very dry sensitive skin ❤️
This video reminds me of when asked in job interviews to explain one of your negative traits, and you answer, " I'm too hard working sometimes,". Lol. Its like.. ok... let's discuss the real issues, not sugarcoat everything 😅🍨
Yeah, it's that same kind of 'reverse honesty/ psychology'. Employers don't want to hear: "I'm always late for work and I hope I'm not still working for you in 5 years time," but I think I'll say that next time just to see if I can win any brownie points for my honesty! In the meantime, Hyram would be better-off allowing people to just express their opinions without trying to spin it into a PR opportunity if he's not going to be totally honest and transparent himself.
Right??? 😂 Great analogy! This video was so sugarcoated and not addressing anything. And you see all this people making excuses for it. There is no excuse for not confronting and not telling the truth. That’s what a good business would do.
I love Dr Drea
@@lalablack6038 she's really good..BUT she is too conservative sometimes. Follow Dr Shereene Idriss and Dr Alexis Stephens
@@MD-jw6lj What does being conservative has to do with skincare ? Not bashing , just an honest question.
I’m glad people loved his products but I would have preferred to see him addressing criticisms of his products. He didn’t really address anything negative even though the people in these videos had some criticisms in their full videos.
i get your point, but how do you expect him to address these criticisms? he JUST launched the products. he can’t change them right away. maybe when he launches an updated line of products he can do something about it, but i don’t see how he can do anything now
@@pia1945 considering he makes the video sound as such? “Reacting to people BASHING…” he made the people sound aggressive, yet he only showed their mild criticisms of him. It’s a mellowed out way of playing the victim, without outright doing so.
@@austinq3151 he obviously made that title to garner viewers. he was very polite and never implicated in this video that the criticisms the reviewers made were in any way unwarranted or unreasonable. also wtf does this comment have anything to do with my reply
@@pia1945 everything you said is exactly what I was pointing out. You clearly are enjoying consumption of that bait and switch. Enjoy 🙃
@@austinq3151 hyram has a lot of viewers. he has the most following out of all the "skinfluencers" on youtube. it's because he makes good marketing decisions. as a relatively old viewer, i watch hyram's videos because i was hooked by his personality and his proliferate and factual knowledge on skincare. and the reason i was intrigued was initially because of his thumbnails and titles. i literally did not care about skincare before hyram, and his controversial thumbnails and titles pulled me into the community and his content kept me there. at the end of the day, he's a very sweet and polite person who's passionate about skincare..
but sure waste your energy on hating on him as if that affects me in any way.
Tbh the videos he decided to use weren’t really “bashing videos.” I was expecting to see his reactions to more brutally honest reviews like Cassandra Bankson’s video.
It’s in Part 2
Yeah I’m surprised he didn’t select Cassandra bankson’s video
Yeah I found cassandra's review more honest and brutal than others. I can understand why Dr. Dray didn't discuss the political side of this controversy and simply the ingredients and it's possible effectiveness.
Tell Cassandra to look at the camera instead of above it when making videos.
@@MrTmenzo lmao what does that have to do with anything
You forgot the part where Dr. Dray says they’re overpriced 🧐
The company calculates the price not Hyram
Overpriced ? Really how cheap do you buy your skincare ?
if you go to the inkey list you can buy amazing products for like $7
True
@@Karincl7 It’s overpriced when you consider the sizes and similar products by the inkey list.
Hyram avoiding to address actual criticism of his brand for 22 minutes
lmao
Right?
what’s being said ?!
Right though? They're not "bashing it" (total clickbait title, which is one reason I don't watch him anymore, he does this often) they're simply providing logical reasons why this skin care line is just a cash grab. Cause I'm sorry but it is. He only made it because a bunch of teens kept asking him to and guess what? Teens don't have wallets.
@@JamieNotLamie teenager here and I agree he’s not even a dermatologist and made a skincare brand
when he doesn't actually review the real criticism of his brand...
Was looking forward to what he had to say about the critiques
He said he’s gonna upload a part two of 50 minutes maybe he’ll address more there
Probably bc he is those type of TH-camrs who can't handle criticism. oR it's "clickbait"
@@purples5736 But he already skipped over the actual bad things Dr. Dray said about his products (and this is someone who said she was not going to touch the social/political issues with the launch and admitted she was biased b/c Hyram sends her more followers). He is cherry picking the positive comments that have mild criticisms attached to make it look like everyone loves his brand.
Because he thinks he's right about everything when he doesn't have any skincare qualifications at all. 😶
No hate here. I love watching your videos, but this is too much of a clickbait for me. This was carefully edited to only show the positive, glowing highlights of your products. Plus, I can't help but feel like Dr. Dray is the most credible reviewer because she's a certified dermatologist. I would have loved to see you react to her entire video - and reviews of your brand from other dermatologists. Again, no hate - just my opinions.
Well said I agree
100% cherry-picked reviews. “See! These people said it’s good” 🙄
Yeah, I love Hyram, but I watched her entire review and it was not as positive as he made it out to seem. Maybe he’ll include the more negative side in part 2, tho. 🤷🏻♀️
@@jayceklept its almost like you didn’t even read this guy’s comment lmao
yesss
I like how you editted out the actual criticisms lol.
Dr. Dray was pretty critical, I wish he would have reacted to the whole thing.
I actually found her video to be very biased
I think he did. But he just edited a lot of parts.
@@dora876 She definitely was, she said so in her video. But despite that she basically said don't buy the retinol, they're over priced, and the applicator sucks. I find it funny how he didn't include that
She actually admitted she was biased b/c Hyram sends her followers. But Hyram still left out Dr. Dray's most critical comments. She said she would not buy this line and advised sticking to equal or better products that are lower priced. She said only to buy the line if you want to specifically support Hyram himself.
No she was not
Please react to actual criticisms instead of just the positive things
I was thinking the same...
I dont think he's purposely watching and reacting to the uh "good reviews" you know he could be going through random videos, not knowing what to expect. Maybe his products are just super great idk I'm not the one to say since I've never used them
@@forestoddity one of the best way to get honest, brutal reviews are from the public. Not just well known beauty youtubers. In my opinion.
@@magdalenesalvan Oh yes, I totally agree. You make a good point
I'm unsure to why people still support this guy. He has little to no knowledge about skincare and yet people still obsess and follow him. He literally demonises every single ingredient when they aren't even that bad for the skin nor even harmful. People need to listen to actual experts.
hyram i’m here to confirm i have been told by an esthetician in the past i have combination skin, but very dry in the colder months! 😌☝🏻 thank you for including me in your video and making bomb skincare, i am truly honored ❤️
You do not know how happy I was when you were in the thumbnail
You were so nice but still honest, I loved it 💕
Love youuu
HEY NICOLE
Hi bestiee
You should've included Cassandra Bankson. Her review was one of the most thorough and non biased.
I’m gonna watch hers. Thank you
Ikr? Like, everyone was expecting it. Cassandra always comments and congratulated him on his brand, I think they're friends too, and now he's not gonna react to it? (Nvm there will be a part 2) Also, he didn't even address actual concerns and criticism in this video, especially Dr. Dray's. I feel like he just pointed out the good points to make it seem like it's such a great brand. He's lowkey just reviewing their reviews back.
He's probably gonna be pointing out the criticism a little more in part two just to say "No look, I'm not ignoring criticism." after seeing a lot of comments saying the same.
@@SR-gm3zf lol and guess what, 2 months later and he never did a part 2 cuz he knows people are gonna bash him more for covering up criticism in the next video (which is non-existent).
I LOVE HERRR
Meh, dr. Dray is the best considering expertise. Cassandra is just meh
did u really just put the positive things only in this video… disliking!
disappointed in this video as a whole lol, very much so a clickbait
“Bashin” continues to pick not brutally honest videos
Well he cut out the brutally honest criticisms...
@@CLAIRE-_-. I mean yea because this video is more of an advertisement to get more people to buy his products since he’s not even transparent about anything anymore and just like any other “influencer” who just needs more money which is why people should take these with a grain of salt because he can’t handle actual criticism from the average consumers or other youtubers
@@Elf_maxxx yep, totally!
AHHHH HI HYRAM
PLS NICOLE HE PUT U IN HIS VIDEP
I RAN TO THIS NOTIF TO SEE IF HE REACTED TO YOU
Oop
HI BOO
❤️❤️❤️❤️
“Bashing??” That’s a stretch! Everyone was super nice!
It’s just clickbait. Literally every TH-camr does it.
It’s Just Clickbait To grab ppls attention I Doubt he was being malicious or anything
He cut out all of the slander
@@McKenzieCoe really?? 👀
@@meganz020 LITERALLY every TH-camr does it? No, they literally don’t, at all. And even if they did would make it no less deserving of reasonable criticism and ridicule as a desperate and gross thing to do, lying to and misleading the people who support you for money. It’s painful and there’s a reason most people hate it.
Dang I wish you would’ve addressed the end of dr dray video when she gives her thoughts on the line as a whole and brings up the green washing and white saviorism
Pretty sure Dr. Dray said nothing about white saviorism. She did talk about the fact that the website claims that 10% of sales from 2021 are gonna go to charity partners and that every six months they're going to publish an externally verified report on how the money is being used where it's going. She invites anyone who wants to purchase the products as a way of contributing to this to make sure to check the report out. That's it...
I feel like that was Cassandra not Dr Dray
@@cathl4953 when a white person gives to people of color to try and look good and be selfless but it’s really just to make themselves look and feel better because they are “saving” people who really don’t need him to save them. Like how hyram calls this brand with his name on it selfless because the brand donates some money to Africa
@@lunaas1029 As someone who is mixed, a minority; white "saviorrism" has got to be the most racists and offensive made up term I have heard this century.
Because he is helping people of color? Or minorities he is a white Savior? OH my goodness, thank God he is helping people. Who cares if you think his intentions are right or wrong thats none of your business and I am certain those who are suffering don't mind at all. This is an American made up ridiculous idea, because people who are truly suffering don't give a shit about the made "white saviors"; they need help.
Also, Cassandra Banks is in fact white so maybe she should stop with her self righteous antics and sit down.
The absurdity and actual pretentiousness of people to actually tell people their own intentions and attempt to discourage people being helped. That's is insane.
Please bring your white saviorism to my community!!!
@@cathl4953 As far as I’m aware it’s when white people think they need to save others/are saving others. Keep in mind this is coming from a white person and I may be incorrect.
Not a fan anymore, you cherry picked the good stuff without reacting to the legit criticism like green washing, over pricing, and white saviour complex. Should’ve reacted to the entire video by dr dray and Cassandra
Same
Hes not even an expert anyway, why would anyone follow his information?
I agree. I unsubscribed because of all of this ingenuine crap.
@@amelavejzovic6311 same.
what are some of the things they said?
This was extremely watered down..I'm disappointed in the marketing.. and not actually reviewing the real criticism but instead click baiting just another attempt to sell the product makes one seem disingenuous
I love hyram but I'm a little sad he didn't address the more heavy criticisms around Selfless. The potential green washing, the fact that people with arthritis have a hard time with the packaging, etc. It just would've been nice to hear his thoughts on those.
people with arthritis having a hard time with the packaging ???🤣🤣 sorry but that’s reaching.
Lol what? People with arthritis?? are you joking? This is how skincare products are always packaged
What is arthritis?
Alicia it’s a condition that makes your joints sore and swell up so therefore makes it hard to open the packaging
@@Adam-lh3gp it's not. I learned a lot about that with Selena Gomez's brand. She created all her products thinking about how hard is for people like her to open and close bottles daily. You will think is easly, but it's actually sad when you cant twist and pull products correctly because you are constantly shaking or because it causes you a lot of pain. I have seen videos of people struggling with Hyram's stuff, just looking at it I can tell it would be impossible for someone with these kind of problems to be able to use buy them.
So people they're not bashing. They're being nice and objective. Bashing is the click bait part of the title ❤️
Agreed... The title made me go 🤔 I expect better
well isn't that what ppl were doing with their thumbnails its just the same thing its yt after all... lmao
Especially since Hyram already went over this with James 3 weeks ago
@@Lintrovert yea, I hope these people don't recieve hate or anything.
@@Lintrovert I was afraid for a second lol
Okay i was already on the fence about the brand, but hyram dodging the actual criticism solidified my decision to not support selfess and other brands he’s pushing
You were selfless and used the money on better things
fakery like almost every 'influencer' - dont trust them, its all just a facade
I forgot who said it, might have been multiple people of influence, but it was essentially "never buy a product a content creator tries to sell you", it's the modern day snake oil salesman pitch.
I agree. Hyram let the fame get into his head is not authentic anymore
Honestly, I love some of the brands he constantly talks about (the ordinary, CeraVe, Iunik, krave beauty, Isntree, etc.) however, this video was very dodgy and I hope he reacts to some actually criticism next time.
You know, i saw Dr Dray's review, and what you did here was disgusting, i don't even care that you didn't respond to whatever, but you actually cherry picked a really very small part of what she said and put it in your video to make you look flawless. I can't believe you did that, why do you guys come across as honest and then go and do stuff like this. Don't you know if you just talk the truth you'd come across as much more real and people would follow you even more? Man hmmmmmm.
And his excuse was he didn’t want to edit it
She criticized his moisturizer and he included that part… what is up with all the hate, people?
@@samanthagunn9237 because he isn’t acknowledging the fact that people are making comments about why THEY don’t like the product. also people with arthritis have had a problem with packaging and he has used sea kelp in some of his products which are essential for oceans and forrests. hope this helped!
I unsubscribed after the product launch, and this is the first time I’ve watched since. Won’t be tempted again. Sad.
Literally unfollowed him because of this
I really hoped he would have addressed the Affordability and Capitalizing on African community points that were constantly brought up by the people. Actually, that is needed to be addressed. I love Hyram so very much but the main criticism that were given by the people were these two exact points. Just an opinion, no hate.
i was waiting for him to bring that up, and it didn't happen. I really like him, but this entire video was a clickbait, he did not address the real issues with his brand/products.
Wait can you further explain this? I’m confused
I would agree. I want to try it bad but I can’t afford it right now
Also the accessibility aspect of his choices in packaging. Multiple people mentioned how the firm squeeze tubes are going to be difficult for folks with arthritis and neuropathy. Doesn't seem like he is willing to accept the serious criticisms as much as he wants to "accept the criticisms"
@@Kiterpuss yeah even young Cassandra Bankson was having difficulty with the packaging. Those tubes are so difficult to squeeze though she did say it might’ve been designed to not let people use more product than they actually need. 🤷🏻♀️
That title though - they clearly didn't bash your brand
They used clickbait in their thumbnails too so this ist just..their humor I think. Everybody knows that they would not bash it anyways. Everybody knows how TH-cam and clickbait works to not fall for it.
Problems with this video:
1.) “Reacting to people BASHING…” - he made the people sound aggressive, yet he only showed their mild criticisms of him. It’s a mellowed out way of playing the victim, without outright doing so.
2.) Not addressing bigger issues that people have been bringing up (ex: green washing and using white-savior analogy as his mission statement.
3.) Zero transparency on his ALLEGED charity contributions from his sales.
P.s. feel free to add more issues, I’m a little tired rn to type up any more. Plz follow sequential order (ex: next would be 4.)
The filter on his face🤭
@@LadyPyrettaBlaze what filter?
@@LadyPyrettaBlaze it’s called lighting
Yeah this is why I unsubscribed, he just comes off as quite disingenuous. Like if he cared about sustainability as much as he claims to then why contribute to a culture of wastage and overconsumption when skincare is already an oversaturated market. It's fair enough that he wanted to capitalise on his popularity, but don't dress it up as something else.
This is the first vid I've watched in months and it's sad bc I thought he was actually going to address actual criticism. Ah well..
The moisturizer smells like vegetables and smell lingers. I just want to hear him actually hear the negativity as I bought product and this was so frustrating to watch.
I really wished you used Cassandra Bankson’s reaction to it. She was very fair and thorough.
I agree, she certainly did!
He said he did in part 2
Part 2
Tell me you didn’t watch the whole video without telling me you didn’t watch the whole video lol. There’s going to be a part 2 and he said that
He's not going to respond to valid criticism though lol. And her video was critical and he can't really argue against it because everything she said is true. 🤷♀️
i was really excited to hear you address the criticism to make me feel more confident about buying your products but now i’m just disappointed…i love your videos but i feel like this was a bad elitist marketing move. people would rather you be more honest. it makes them more comfortable
hyram: releases a skincare line and says “spf is coming”
me: *waiting* 👁👄👁
I hope its not too pricey
Can you even believe that wasn’t the FIRST product?? 😉
@@mail4dodi it's probably because SPF stuff in the United States takes FOREVER to get confirmation that they can list it as SPF legally.
Spf takes time to produce
I cant wait for his sunscreen!
Were they really bashing though? I thought they were honest reviews, their opinion. I don't think was intended to bash, but rather simply review your products.
I think he titled it “bashing” for clickbait!
@@stephlandis6073 Yeah, probably. It seems a little mean to do though as most of the people who reviewed his products had good things to say and were courteous.
Maybe it's a clickbait title or he was expecting some bashing initially xD....
@@petitsjoujoux5011 Yeah, creating a little controversy draws in the crowd
It’s just clickbait. It’s what all TH-camrs do.
Not a fan anymore, you cherry picked the good stuff without reacting to the legit criticism like green washing, over pricing, and white saviour complex. Should’ve reacted to the entire video by dr dray and Cassandra
*Hyram…by you not addressing the real criticism it’s kinda giving off the vibe that you don’t really care and that it’s kinda just about the money for you*
I really think Hyram is afraid of Dr.Dray, because she is a credible, board certified dermatologist.This is a guy who got lucky partnering wirh Inkey List. I did my research on this guy. He is a disingenuous greenwasher. After what I have read about him, he has zero credibility.
Yuppp
"That's irritating" her reaction to everything lol
What is green washer?
@@fairfight9857 a person who pretends to care about the environment, worry about global warming blablabla but is just using it as a marketing strategy.
And has over 4 million subscribers for some reason.
Still waiting on part 2... 👀
The dodging of the actual criticisms from these creators and others is honestly pretty dodgy and shady. Do a proper response to the criticisms and leave out the reaction -- one way to do that would be to compile a list of all of the different criticisms (as well as who all said it, maybe with accompanying clips) and respond to each point individually. Again, leave out the unnecessary reactions and just do a thorough and proper response video.
In regards to the potential greenwashing, I did find watching Shelbizleee's video about the sustainability of Selfless to be pretty interesting and informative. She's a big advocate for and is super passionate about sustainability (in the entire product and production process) and holding brands accountable, and she's also an eco-minimalist. She admits that she doesn't really know anything about skincare itself, so she's commenting only on the sustainability of the brand (as well as the quality of the two charities he's partnered with).
The only part I wished she'd addressed in the video was the partnership with The Inkey List and how that impacts the sustainability of Selfless, if at all.
Here's her video if you wanna check it out (or you could just search up the video yourself if you'd prefer, lmao):
th-cam.com/video/Xyu0ErZD62M/w-d-xo.html
I’m also waiting on part 2
So professionals that are more qualified than you making valid criticisms ok yeah got it
I hope he will address the elephant in the room in another video. He's a likeable guy with positive goals and I think as a whole, we want him to succeed. I don't think addressing the controversy surrounding the marketing concept and availability for purchase in Africa would hurt his brand more than neglecting to talk about it. He is being open about what he has learned about the launch. If he has learned something from that, I'd like to hear it. I am more likely to trust brands that recognize, admit and evolve from their mistakes. It shows integrity, which is something I think Hyram has demonstrated a lot of in the past.
Thisss
What’s the elephant in the room??
What’s the elephant in the room if you don’t mind me asking?
@@allisonsky7230 people are saying that he is a hypocrite for using African children in the marketing to promote how the brand will give a percentage of the profits to help people in Africa get access to clean water. The reason they say he’s a hypocrite is because he has a video where he talked about how missionary trips aren’t as helpful as they claim to be (since the money spent on the trip could be better used on resources), and that they portray this “white savior” idea. Btw, Hyram himself went on a mission trip, but didn’t learn about these things until a while after.
@@dianamendoza6829 I couldn't have said it better myself!
You probably should reword the title. It's not about clickbait or views, but about respecting those in your industry and those with licenses like Dr. Dray.
It's called ✨ hyperbole ✨
@@friedbolognasandwich You mean it's called clickbait and trying to fish for views when nothing of the "bashing" sort even occurred. Call it as it is. I don't see the point in calling it hyperbole to change any perception of what is actually happening. Hyram barely even touches upon the actual negative aspects of his brand. He's powerwashing this whole video to make "Selfless" seem better than it is.
This video looked like it was edited to only show the positive
It was he picked the extremely minor problems reviewers had with them which the reviewers mixed in with tons of praise
fr
@@zoeknight1 yes, one gets a better picture of the reviews by watching the original videos
:( I’m definitely a little disappointed Hyram! I hope you can address the real criticism when you’re ready! Sending love.
Not me just realizing that I sold Hyram coffee in SoHo last week. I remember thinking that he looked like Hyram but the blue hair threw me.
OMG LUCKYYY
That’s insane omg
But he’s had blue hair before ???
@@xennykat dude it’s super disconcerting to be at a busy coffee shop and look up and see someone famous. I also def thought he was in Hawaii!
@@zukihoney135 then i think you havent been watching hyram for a while i guess..?
Criticism does not equal “bashing” the same way that calling out doesn’t equal “hating”.
He was just doing the same clickbait that other people in the video did. Most TH-camrs do it
hyram… this video is not it. i love you and so many people do. we all want you to succeed. but ignoring the actual criticism from credible dermatologists is just upsetting and kind of hypocritical :( please make sure you react to the ACTUAL genuine reviews, not only the good parts !!
Stop choosing parts that make you look good and show the whole clips. Disgusting scam artist man, makes me so so sick that he has so many diehard fans willing to defend him to hell and back.

@@poppiehardwick2563 well then I don’t see why you made the comment I’m pretty sure it’s obvious 😳😳 like no shit.
Clickbait title. Literally not even mildly negative complaints, you should react to the actual comments. If you’re confused look up skincare addiction on Reddit, everyone will let u know how they really feel 😅
Dr. Drey did not bash Hyram’s skin care line, such a claim is completely hyperbolic at best. The title is pretty misleading. Also, I’m genuinely concerned as to how I should move forward in terms of following Hyram. I recently found out that he was in a partnership with “First Aid Beauty” and he didn’t disclose as such. I have spent A LOT of money on this brand because Hyram endorsed it. I thought he only promoted the brand because he personally liked it, turns out, he had financial incentive to promote the brand so heavily. Now I’m seriously questioning my entire skin care routine and I’m honestly just so frustrated with Hyram’s behavior. I’m pretty sure that he is supposed to disclose the brands that he is in partnership with and he hasn’t always done that. He certainly hasn’t done that regarding F.A.B. Not okay.
the title is so dramatic for no reason
Personally I don’t think that the actual people who do the product reviews on TH-cam, are the ones who are sometimes mean (even though often times they’ll use someone’s name and product in the title and thumbnail of the video and make a bad facial expression just for views, and clickbait to get people’s attention.) It’s usually the comments section where people can be super mean, ruthless, and disrespectful, and often times forget that the people who they’re commenting on……are still people with feelings and emotions. Obviously that’s just how the internet is…..but sometimes people online and can super reckless.
Well said.
AGREE. I hope he doesn’t fixate on the absolute hate he has gotten from the internet.
ya’ll americans can be really mean, you expect people to be perfect, to never make a mistake, to have a crystal clear past. No one is perfect, even Hyram not but god the shit people give him under other people’s reviews. And this while everybody was asking him to release his own skin care under every video he posted, if you look up his older videos the top comments are all “who else wants Hyram to release his own brand😍” with over zillion likes.
@@TaurusGirl22 why specifically americans?
@@kelekasanasith5778 we don’t do that in other parts of the world
20 minutes of nothing.
How I can trust your products when I can’t even trust the content of your video? Lol
The fame got to his head
Bashing??? Clickbait title
Kind of misleading as James Welsh mentions in his video that they are friends and Hyram sent him the products
True. But Doesn’t mean he’d outright Lie, Maybe just use gentler phrashing than for a big faceless brand.
Not misleading to me. I have. Tried all products myself for a few weeks now… I mean wow…. I will certainly repurchasing
He sent him the products so that he could make an honest review. It was the same thing with Dr Dray. She even stated in the beginning of her video that he sent her the products but that she was going to be honest. Just because Hyram sent him the products doesn’t mean he’s just not going to be truthful. People like you just grasp at straws to try and find negative things rather than just focusing on the positive. What a sad way to live life.
@@emilyellerbe5363 LOL girl, chill. I'm just saying that if someone's friend releases a product, they will be supportive above all. So in this video, it's misleading for Hyram to make it appear as though the reviewers were going to say anything that is extremely critical. It is impossible for the reviewers to not have bias. Let's be realistic...
@@utopianslay Exactly what I said ! If it was an unknown Joe who came up with this skincare brand, I highly doubt James Welsh would give the same review. Heck, I think most of the TH-camrs would have had a more brutally honest opinion about these products. That's why my respect goes to Cassandra Bankson. Despite being friends with Hyram, she gave a brutally honest review and that's why Hyram didn't include her video, which is disappointing
you didn't reply to the critical part where dr dray said you're just paying a huge premium in $$$$ for the influencer label
Got em.
Why does he need to reply to that???? Why are some of yall so against someone making $$ . Don't buy it if you don't like the price!!
@@kaiw522 because his title is literally "replying to people bashing my brand", and he cut off the criticism from the same video he showed replying to
@@justStardust940 that has nothing to do with the product
Because as Hyram stated in the video, he did not have time to go through the whole video as well as he didn't want to make the video even longer so he just watched bits of each video and then said that he would later go back and finish them all off camera
They weren’t bashing. If you know that these youtubers are ‘good nice people’ then why would you frame the reviewers in your thumbnail as if they aren’t? This clickbait is a really dishonest and sleazy marketing strategy
I think he was joking cause these TH-camrs are his friends.
@@pabo3503 to me it seemed more like clickbait. i wanted tea haha
video should be titled 'reacting to my besties praising my skincare brand' lmao, the only person who gave a FAIR review was Cassandra Bankson, the rest is just biased bs.
I would say Dr dray was also pretty honest. It's just that he decided to edit out the actual criticisms she made.
@@বদমাইশব্যাটা Considering how honest Dr. Dray can be with reviewing products, most notably Naturium by Susan Yara, it's safe to say that she was being EXTREMELY lenient on Hyram.
@@yousefelh3177 100% She has NEVER allowed such a low % of BHA or retinol to be OK before. She admitted she may be biased b/c they are friendly and he sends her followers and viwes. But she did give an overall critique of the brand near the end of her video..Hyram just chose not to show it. She said she would not recommend the products because they are nothing special and you can buy the same thing for less $. She said that if you are a person who loves Hyram and wants to support him..that would be the only reason to pay the prices.
@@yousefelh3177 cause she doesn't want to loose followers See is all about the mighty dollar
@@debbiemccune1952 Andrea said it like a true Chilean, jealous of others successes.
He conveniently left out the parts from Dr. Dray where she said she thought all of them were overpriced and drugstore brands would do the same thing at a much lower pricepoint. lol
This kind of clickbait is why I unsubscribed. Way to avoid any ACTUAL criticism like the blatant greenwashing. I cannot with this clearly desperate cash grab.
You not reacting to the negative parts of the videos or more brutally honest reviews on your brand just shows that you can’t take criticism
**unsubscribes*
I love your new hair!!!! I don't wanna see ppl bash you thooo 😭💙 EDIT Aww you're literally the sweetest human alive!
I am the cool kid from Germany making videos for the USA and the rest of the world. I will make your day so don't say nay to me today, dear jes
Hey Jessica! I love your channel so much. I saw the video that hyram did on your prison face care. I'm subscribed to both your channels. And I commented on your newest video today and now I'm commenting on hyrams lol. Btw, You're an inspiration to me! Nice to see you here!
Love ya Jess
@@AxxLAfriku I am not Jessica, just your everyday evil genius, but because you are cool kid from Germany I will not say nay to you comrade
Your the best Jessica!!
Where was the bashing, get trapped into buying this brand, but this video just made me question everything Hyram stands for. Cassandra was critical but he conveniently left that reaction...
Perhaps it's in the second video? Or part of the 2.5 hours that was cut right down...
It’s nothing personal, some people just don’t want to spend their money on overpriced products from influencers, myself included. Still appreciate the videos.
the packaging is what makes it pricy. It’s a very eco friendly brand and getting things to be environmentally friendly make it’s quite expensive, however I’m not bashing you or anything. A lot of people just don’t want to spend so much money on skincare which I totally get
His products really aren't any more expensive than most brands. It's pretty affordable for the most part.
@@je4ns__ respectfully, I go with my tested and tried basics that work for me. The donations are a tax right off by the way, a lot of businesses do this
@@je4ns__ sugar cane is still awful for the planet and it's also dirt cheap. The packaging does not justify a massive price hike
@@taylorpaige1117 you can get similar products cheaper, for example I love cera ve and the ordinary
Here to see if the white saviorism gets addressed!
same
I'm sorry but most criticisms I've seen are valid and this feels like you're purposely being disingenuous.
It's called Selfless by Hyram. It's an oxymoron. He is a hypocrite just by breathing now. Done.
You mostly reacted to the positive comments. I’ve seen Dr Dray’s review till the end and that’s not always the case lol
Why the clickbait title 👎?
No need Hyram. Don't cheapen yourself by pulling these stunts.
Just a "Reaction to My Skin Care Brand" would have sufficed.
Dude it’s expensive damnnnnn just accept it
Clickbait?
So basically cut up videos of ppl saying nice things so other watching go out and buy it lol
“Bashing” …. clickbait much? We weren’t anticipating beef when we view this, we were just anticipating a balanced response to criticism.
I love you but honey, you're editing this video to only show the positives. There's valid criticism from these reviews that you're not addressing.
Acting like this is his first time seeing any of the videos is worse than knowing he picked the exact parts of the videos that make his products look not as bad as the reviews actually were
The weren’t even bashing it tbh 😅making a brand comes with constructive criticism. Dr. Dray is a licensed dermatologist :) she was nice throughout the whole video. I know you didn’t mean any harm ❤️ Ily and ik that’s basically what you said tho :D
Just putting us out there because I found this out about three days ago and that’s what I stopped being a fan that you are actually paid by a lot of these brands to say that you like their products and you don’t say there’s a sponsorship in the video also you will bash people celebrities for having an ingredient in a moisturizer they use and then promote a product that has the same ingredients that you said you don’t like there’s proof of this in the video hyram him as a hypocrite if you want receipts
I'm pretty sure the title was more for click bait purposes
I agree but I feel like he “cherry picked” the nice elements of the review videos and left out the harsh criticisms that he should have been reacting too
@@thompsonaly9 Exactly I watch the videos that he reacted to and they said some stuff that he didn’t even react and he did that on purpose
@@thompsonaly9 yeah he most def did
Why would you use the word bashing when thats literally not what they did 😑
hyram I love you but the cleanser cap literally broke off after a week even though I was handling it gently :(
Whoa..
Aaahhh this vid show how SELFLESS he is
The one review we should care about is Dr. Dray’s. She actually went to med school for this stuff.
Too bad Hyram cut out the worst things she said about the products and the part where she admitted being biased.
yep
@@junedaisy707 she’s none of those things you list. Just stop being an online troll
@@MAK0948 I'm sorry you are in need of prescription lenses, because she does have skin issues. Nothing wrong with having skin problems, but many of the things she recommends don't really fix those issues, hence people keep buying a plethora of these products without much benefit specially when the person is older.
@@junedaisy707 just because she’s a dermatologist doesn’t mean she has to have perfect skin, she’s a human too.
I love your account but this wasn't bashing. I already expected it to be clickbait though. I was hoping you'd watch Cassandra Bankson's review and address some more serious and valid criticisms she had.
He should have reacted to Cassandra Bankson's recation. I think it was extremely honest.
Maybe next time review the actual real criticisms and not fellow youtubers you know personally who are being nice and supportive and barely giving any critical opinions. There are valid critiques out there. I think calling this 'bashing' is a stretch, and also ignores a lot of the main criticisms communities have right now with some aspects of the brand. I am a long time viewer and was really excited for this brand, but i do agree with a lot of the criticisms going around and it has pushed me away from purchasing. Even more so that you simply ignore it and instead make a video of your friends 'bashing' nothing :(
Why would he review the criticisms from random internet strangers who have no credibility and spread HATE versus actual constructive criticism? It’s not like they’re making videos.
Second, the title is clickbait. Literally every TH-camr does it.
@@meganz020 he chose friends. That's not the same. Plus, he clipped out real criticism
This is literally a +20 min ad 🤪
And youre watching it 🤪
Yeah. As all of his videos lately. So sad 🤷♂️
If you do another one of these I’d love to see you react to Cassandra Bankson’s video on it!♥️
I reacted to hers when filming this!! That will come in part 2 :D
@@Hyram omg yay! So excited.
@@Hyram YAYAYAY
So trueee
@@Hyram where's the part 2..
I can buy a much better and cheaper korean/japanese skincare brands and donate at the same time without feeling ripped off.
They're not"bashing" your line, they're telling us the truth. Especially dr dray and Dr shah. And nevermind but you're products are nothing ground breaking and overpriced
no ones bashing his brand tho...?
I like Hyram, but the clickbait is strong with this vid 🤣. Everyone was super nice my dude lol.
Side note: I'm glad no one was super rude, but maybe a different title lol
Why does it matter if it's click bait...? Who on TH-cam doesn't do that? The expectations y'all have for TH-camrs is unrealistic.
@@duckyxoxo3 It's just misleading. Idk who u watch, but most of the people I watch don't use clickbait titles 🤷♀️. Don't care for those channels.
My expectations are actually not really high, It's just like with t.v shows. You like some and you dislike some. It's really not that big of a deal.
That beauty filter again...
Maybe you should react to the FULL videos next time. Dr Dray was very critical and honest, and you cherry picked a very very small segment of the video where she says good things about it.
mad props to you for going for it and having your own brand, but not as genuine as you used to be, sorry mate
He is a sales person, always was.
The one video I did not expect Hyram to make.
As far as I could see the vast majority of criticisms online were the marketing, the environmental impact and the price. None of these issues were covered in this vlog and so that’s a little disappointing as that was the reality of the response to the launch.
The clickbait title though.. 🙄
This video doesnt feel right to me. Obviously your influencer friends didn't want to bash your products in any way with their "reviews". Your reactions also feels fake. Do you want to tell us you didnt watch their reviews before? your product marketing team must have all the data ready. The only person we can trust is Dr. Dray, although recently it feels her channel became more of a promotional business.
Not an objective view. These were some very positively biased opinions of people who are impartial to him as a person. Found out NOTHING. Video misadvertised
They’re not even bashing you. Lmao.
dr dre: i mean it’s logical 🤷♀️
hyram: THANK FREAKING GOD MY LIFE IS COMPLETE
Dr Dray is the GOAT
These are not the negative parts of their reviews. React to Cassandra Bankson’s video. She couldn’t even get the product out of half of them.
