Tbh my favourite mascara is NYX's don't stop won't stop, don't @ me I suck at remembering names (the normal, i feel the waterproof quite damaging for my eyes when I remove it) and it's like 8/9€?
Imagine having 1.3M followers, being sweet, honest AND consistent with your content... Other beauty reviewers could NEVER! Thanks Soph for keeping makeup interesting, entertaining and transparent. We love you
I find TikTok to be an absolute minefield for bias ads and it’s so so sad!! Some people are really only thinking about themselves and it’s really a let down. Thank you so much for always being transparent for us and for the brands!!! We appreciate you❤
literally every time i see a good review i don’t trust it and look to see if it says ad/sponsorship anywhere and 90% of the time it does. i’m not saying every add is untrustworthy but the way tiktok is formatted and the wa they make these tiktoks makes it seem like just some girl in her bedroom trying makeup and loving it when really it’s an ad and it feels just so deceiving
i will say- when mascara ads are on tv - most of the time there is “lash enhancement added” or “individual lashes added” listed underneath so you know the image shown isn’t JUST the mascara. I wish she had mentioned something like “this mascara looks really good with false lashes” or something to that effect.
thats what i was thinking, if she had said "im wearing some fake lashes, this mascara is good for blending my natural lashes with fakes one etc" she wouldnt be in this drama. but instead she went to the comments to say its just her natural lashes like gurl tell the truth.
@Natasha Jepson exactly. Like, everyone knows your face/lashes. We know those are not just your lashes with mascara. We saw the band. You think if she was going to try to lie she could have at least done a better job at it and not treated us like we are stupid.
I always thought this but I saw a make up artist on tiktok who was a mua for maybeline I think, and she said they have to sign a clause saying that there isn’t any false lashes added 🤔
I'm so glad you called her out. The public shouldn't accept being shamelessly lied to and blatantly scammed. You're one of the few trustworthy influencers around!
Who is she talking about? I’m so out of the loop and couldn’t even find what Soph was talking about by googling haha. But because of the cryptic way she said it I’m so curious as to what’s going on haha.
@@lisasmith8484 she explains it quite a lot in the video. basically in an ad, mikayla is testing mascara, and then it cuts and she is wearing stick on lashes. therefore lying about the mascara itself
I literally love you so much. You are HONEST and that’s what matters. Sick of people ruining it for the good ones who have integrity. Thank you for always being a real one babes❤
Thank you for saying this in a way that's also respectful of the original creator. I completely agree with you that it's way more important to be honest with your followers than taking any sponsorship that you can. I love how your whole channel is so drama-free and relatable
TH-cam, for me, has always been a more realizable place. People like you and Robert Welsh truly help me in my purchases, and I trust you guys completely. Love you, Soph!
I’m personally a brown skin girl and I usually watch brown skin beauty influencers bc of similar skin tones and the concept of colour theory etc..BUT Soph is one of the few influencers I watch bc she really is as honest as it gets and ultimately being honest gets you far, I’ve listened to her advice many a time and I don’t regret it BECAUSE she’s honest! so thank you Soph! ❤
I remember when Soph didn't use blush. I took a break from makeup content for a couple of years and now that I am back, I was first surprised to see her putting blush on haha. Love your content, Soph!
You are one of the only influencers I actually trust because you still act like a real human. Your opinions and how honest you are about everything is always so reassuring. I’ve tried so many wonderful products as recommended by you - including your collection with Revolution 💛
I seen her tiktok video and your comment was on top - was a bit surprised to see it because a lot of times influencers avoid confronting other influencers… well done for keeping it real and honest.. always trust your reviews and recommendations ❤
@@JessieBurwell i was researching and found out it was Mikayla, j search Mikayla mascara scandal and it shows up. don’t send hate tho (not saying u would but in case), i was j curious to see the video
You’re the only beauty TH-camr who I’ve actually continued watching through all the eras of beauty TH-cam, because you don’t lie. I’ve been watching you since 2014/2015 and you’re so reliable and lovely.
I have always appreciated your honesty! One of the only influencers I actually trust. The way some people treat their audience is disrespectful and simply ridiculous!!
I literally just came to this video after watching Steph's newest upload 🥰 I love them both! I went from watching the bigger creators that everyone thinks of when you say "beauty gurus" to finding smaller creators who are so much more genuine and relatable and it's been amazing watching them all grow these last few years because they truly are great and honest reviewers. I know no amount of money will change Soph or Steph for that matter as a person you can tell they are just genuinely themselves and have integrity. We appreciate an honest relatable creator 💜
I love how genuine you are I’ve been watching you for years, there’s just no reason to lie it’s just embarrassing when they get caught out and then they have to sit and attempt to apologise for it. Genuinely just risking their reputation for a bit of cash it’s crazy
I appreciate how you understand your followers are real people. When you spoke of a young person saving up their money to buy a product an influencer advertises, you understand how that means that person is exchanging hours of their life working and saving up money for that product. Thank you for your empathy and loyalty to your followers. ❤
When I saw the referenced video my first thought was you! I literally said out loud “soph would never do anything like this” thank you for always being trustworthy! I appreciate your honesty and integrity!
Well done on sticking to what you believe in and having morals and care for your audience. These people forget that due to their job they are often given hundreds of products for free whilst someone who works hard like myself, will still save up and research a makeup product for hours, sometimes days to splurge on before purchasing. Knowing even after all that research it might still be money down the drain. To think people have turned to lie or exaggerate products in their own favour is not nice to know. To me, I know that some people will make something viral just to make it viral and push how 'good' it really is because we as an audience would love to believe something can make us look so flawless. I have always watched you but now have so much respect for you also. Thank you for always being honest.
super interesting conversation about the influencers/brand/followers relationships. I work for a beauty brand and it happened many times that we were working with a particular influencer that didn't really love the products we wanted her to promote (i.e. they weren't suitable for her skintype) and we easly made her change the focus of her sponsorship. as you said, there are PEOPLE working behind brands that really do care and are more than happy to help :)
To follow on from my first comment, I also can 100% see the false lash band. I understand people have their reasons but to reply to people in her comments and lie repeatedly was what shocked me the most. She should have just owned it and apologised and it wouldn’t have been this bad!
@@karly.asshhh I can see the line of the band along her lash line, but like you say, that doesn’t really matter, it’s the fact there’s false lashes there at all 😂 really disappointing cause I loved her content!
You are one of the largest creators I watch. I love watching your videos because they seem so genuine- so even though I have much older skin than you I like watching your wear tests, your smudge tests and I 💯 appreciate that you come back and say things like - this transferred! I love watching somewhat smaller creators like Angie, Heather, and Samantha March. I do watch a lot of larger skin care you tubers. I try to avoid short form reviews in general.
Soph you will have so much success in the years coming because.of your honestly and realistic reviews and just being an honest business woman! I believe in if you do the right thing god puts blessings in everything you do and i 100% know you will get far in life. Been watching you since i was in school and im 26 now!
Thanks for being so transparent, honest and sweet! You’re actually one of only two influencers I have trusted for beauty products. I got your three (eyeshadows and highlighter) palettes years ago, also got one of your lipsticks, and jewelry pieces as well both to support you and because I loved them. I’ve never been disappointed from you!! Love you Soph ❤ Keep it up!
So pleased to hear you speak out about this and not just turn a blind eye you’re always true to yourself 💕 I’ve followed you since the freedom awards and watch your videos religiously because you’re so trustworthy and genuine I have bought so many products you’ve recommended over the years 💕
I really appreciate you speaking up. I think she actually added some individual false lashes. And brands do this is their commercials and ads but influencers are supposed to be an ad, but from someone you can actually believe. I agree with your pov 100%
I’m usually a silent watcher but I have to say that I’ve always been quite skeptical of a lot of influencers but you have always been one that I can trust. When you recommend a product, I always know that it’s your genuine opinion! So thank you for that!❤
Loving your content lately. I’ve always watched and enjoyed but really enjoying how you have been showing makeup in different natural lighting and without filters 😊
If anyone here is new to Soph's channel, just know that she can be trusted 100% of the time. I've watched almost all of her videos, and have followed her for years, and she NEVER does ads for things that she doesn't stand behind. And when she doesn't like something, she will tell you. AND she will explain why she doesn't like it...for herself. She's the best beauty TH-camr in my humble opinion. :)
I’m glad you did this video and addressed what’s happening atm! You’re one of the few content creators I fully trust! You’re so honest and transparent with all of us and we love it! Keep doing you girl! 🤍
The healthy mix serum foundation is my favourite especially in the summer, looks so nice on the skin it’s definitely more of a light medium coverage but with a bit of concealer where needed it’s so good! love you soph! Another gorgeous look! ❤
You have the most mature reaction to this I've seen. Almost all other videos on this topic I've seen have been so aggressive and harsh. I like how calm and genuine you seem. Makes it so much more believable and trustworthy.
I've watched you for years and you're always such a breath of fresh air. Thank you for always being so honest and lovely. I trust your recs and so appreciate how much integrity you have. This eye look is stunning!
i am literally sat here waiting for someone and was thinking about which boring videos to watch on TH-cam to pass time … when I get the notification that you posted a new video, perfect timing and the opposite of boring 😍
You’re such an angel🥹🥹🥹 I am not on tik tok so I didn’t notice the mascara drama but I love your videos and your opinions and always 100% trust your recommendations and opinions. Thank you for your honesty and kindness and just for the smile on your face to make our days better🥹💜 the makeup is stunning as always ✨
One thing I love about you is your honesty! Plus, even when you say you like a product, you ALWAYS say "but what works for me might not work for you" because of different skin types That's why I trust your reviews even if it's sponsored
i wish we could get studio london in america! but thank you so much for being honest and respectful. this is why i've stuck with the same beauty youtubers that i've watched for years instead of bothering with tiktok because i just don't trust it.
Soph thank you so much for always being honest. I know that I can count on your review always no matter if it’s sponsered or not and I really appreciate that! thank you!!!
i love your eye look so much so good!!! i was so shocked when i saw her tiktok like 😦 are you for real rn 😦😭 you and morgan turner are genuinely the only people who i trust and who's content i look forward to
Thank you Soph. It's really hard to find geniuine and honest reviewers and influencers on any platform these days. You've always been an honest one, love you
The more I watch Soph, the more I love her. So genuine and honest and really cares about her followers and understands that she needs to be a positive influencer. Love the topics she brings up, it's so relatable and it genuinely feels like she cares. So refreshing!🥰😇🫡❤
Thank you for all your transparency over the years, Soph. This video, the video about what skin REALLY looks like with makeup and in different lighting, and many others, have made you my favorite TH-camr. What happened was very unfortunate, but I'm glad we have influencers like you that are transparent about what they do.
I love graphic liner looks. I do a ton of them myself. I hope you do some more. Obviously, you should do the looks you love, but you're so good at them, and i really mean that
Soph, Steph Toms and Jordan Lipscombe really are doing Gods work and carrying the whole of TH-cam beauty when it comes to realness! The only people I’ll watch when it comes to beauty products and product reviews! I’ve unsubscribed from so many content creators because money has changed them! Thank you for being you and for being real 🫶🏼
Love you and your content. I’ve heard you speak of ads in other videos and how you choose what brands to work with. You’re always honest with reviews and I really appreciate it 💜
i havent been into makeup/beauty-guru-influencer videos for a longggg time, but ur channel is such a breath of fresh air!! & we have the same skin type?? u could literally conviince me to buy anythinggggg! lol 😂
I would love a wedding makeup tutorial! I have a similar skin type to yours and am interested to hear what products you would recommend for special occasions!
Wait...I looked away for two seconds and you have drawn an entire graphic situation on your lids, like what?? I could never. You are so talented. I love your videos so much, and just to let u know I would trust u with my entire beauty routine whole heartedly. Your great Soph, I recommend you to so many ppl 💋💖
Hey Soph, thank you for addressing the mess in such a gentle way, and also for always being honest with your reviews! Also, this look is so great and really gives off Lavender Haze vibes 💟
I never comment, but I've been following you for a while now. I just have to say that I always love watching your videos, especially when you try makeup because I know you're trustworthy! Watching you brings me "old Zoella videos" vibes 🥰 Sending love from Belgium xx
exactly! everytime she posts i know i can trust every word she says. she is genuinely such a lovely and kind person. it feels like i’m just with a friend when i watch her videos.
I always trust your honest reviews, especially when you show makeup and how it looks in natural light/ pores etc I also LOVE how you promote the need for sunscreen, too many TH-camrs get burnt and don’t highlight the dangers to their young audience. I also struggle when popular TH-camrs advertise gaming apps that I know they never use 🙈 it’s so obviously fake.
i appreciate your kindness towards the creator and the honesty you always show with your reviews and ads. i was wondering what ur favorite liquid colorful eyeliners were? especially if they are long lasting
I love how Soph is like the only person I’ve ever seen who does that test with the makeup sprays. It’s really cool to see which ones actually set your makeup rather than someone just testing it and talking about it in a speed review type of video. And one of the other problems with TikTok and any short form reviews, it’s way to short to fully explain how a product looks and wears. Take the kvd good apple balm foundation, it might look amazing at first but every single TH-camr who tried it didn’t like it because they just saw “wow this is beautiful” but nothing about how it looked at the end of the day or even how it looked after an hour. It is really frustrating how many people and brands still try to sell mascara with false lashes though, I think the average person doesn’t have the time or skill to wear lashes so it’s super annoying to see a mascara look amazing on an ad, but when you try it it barely does anything since the ad was using falsies. Even if they do disclose that, it doesn’t do a great job at showing what the actual product is supposed to do but that’s just the short version of my thoughts on TikTok influencers and mascara And if I can offer a suggestion for a smaller and trustworthy creator, Kelly Gooch is one of my favorites for the last couple years (that sounds crazy but I’m sure I found her in 2021) she got me hooked on Sigma eyeshadows and now I have four palettes but they’re so good, no regrets here
I used to love the Bourjois serum foundation! I used to wear it like 10 years ago before serums entered the mainstream and it was gorgeous for a drier skin!
Definitely trust soph! So friendly, genuine, truthfully, has great advice and knows what shes doing. Liked all the products except the eyeshadow 🙈 (personally, but thats just me)
I love love the eyeliner! It’s so cute and I like it a lot. I’ve seen Makeupmissa use that setting spray, it looks nice. Thanks for commenting on the mascara situation and being honest. You are one of the few creators I know I can trust what you say & your reviews of products. 💜💜💜
Thank you for addressing this soph! I actually unfollowed the person who did it. She's completely lost any trust from her followers. I've always watched your reviews as we have similar skin type so everything I've tried works really well for me. I always consider the influencers skin type for face product reviews cause the same products will work completely differently if someone has an opposite skin type! Xx
I have something to say and I hope you read it: first of all, THANK YOU for being so relateable and honest - I totally trust your opinion cause it really feels like a recommandation from a friend and I love that second of all, using hot water for your beautyblender to make it blend better is the best hack ever it 100% works so much better for me and third, getting the trust back from your followers after you lost it is so hard…I stopped following 2 influencers already because they lied and lost my trust…it‘s just so disappointing rant over - I love your channel Soph🥰
Yay I'm here early! Was hoping you'd have a video out, and figured you would given everything going on! Thanks for always being honest and speaking with integrity! Love you and your reviews/videos - you've completely transformed my makeup routine and I'm forever grateful!
I really trust your opinions and the way you describe products really helps me pick and choose what I may or may not like. Even when you don’t personally like a product, I can tell if it’s something I’m interested in by your description and wear test. I’m 40 and have two young children so I have a very different lifestyle to you. I’m lucky that I only have a few fine lines (thanks to my mum who started buying me SPF to wear on my face from age 12 😊) so I know that your base recommendations generally work well on me, particularly the powders, as I have a similar skin type and I like the same look. I love the colourful looks you create but know that it’s not something that I’ll be purchasing or needing to recreate, my festival days are over 😂. I love watching it though! I don’t have the time or money to buy as much makeup as I used to- so I kind of live vicariously through you and a few other influencers! I’ve never really got into the influencer you were talking about as I’ve noticed filters, etc in the small amount of content I have seen from her. I’ve started using Wild deodorant thanks to your review, sponsorship and discount code. I’ve been unsuccessfully trying to switch to a more natural option for years with no success- to the point where I’d decided not to bother anymore. I made a spur of the moment decision when you did a sponsorship and I love it! I took a chance because I knew that you wouldn’t advertise a product you didn’t believe in; so it gives me confidence to try it as if I don’t like it I can be sure it’s due to my own personal preferences rather than it being a bad product. Integrity is incredibly important and is something I believe you have buckets of xx
You are my literally favorite! I'm so old you could be my kid but I still relate to your content! So refreshing, honest, entertaining, you make me laugh ❤️
I recently bought the healthy mix foundation when I visited Paris, and I love it so much 🤩 I completely agree with your review. Also, I really appreciate you giving your opinion without creating more drama. Love you very much ❤️
Always trusted you soph, we share the same taste in mascara and foundation so I always love your recommendations you have never steered me wrong. If I'm looking for a more considered makeup purchase I always watch reviews for a few people I trust like you and Robert to see how you all feel about it. I was also very disappointed with the current situation but the hate she is getting I can't deal with that and the meanness, no one needs those things said to them but I'm sure she will regret it but we will see. Stay fab, I think I'll pop to town and look in superdrug at some of the nee brand stuffs. Thanks for the video ❤️
I seen you comment on her post and your the person who got me into makeup your my favourite makeup influencer I trust you so much when you say a product is good I go and get it I have been watching you since 2018 and my first eyeshadow pallet was yours xx
Update!!! the mascara transferred onto my eyelids by the end of the night 😩 the original telescopic doesn’t do this on me 💔
ah nooo
The treason.
That’s so upsetting!!! Thanks for telling us! As someone with super oily lids now I know not to get it - and I was planning on getting to tomorrow!!

I’m usually a silent watcher but I have to say that I’ve always been quite skeptical of a lot of influencers but you have always been one that I can trust. When you recommend a product, I always know that it’s your genuine opinion! So thank you for that!❤
Loving your content lately. I’ve always watched and enjoyed but really enjoying how you have been showing makeup in different natural lighting and without filters 😊
If anyone here is new to Soph's channel, just know that she can be trusted 100% of the time. I've watched almost all of her videos, and have followed her for years, and she NEVER does ads for things that she doesn't stand behind. And when she doesn't like something, she will tell you. AND she will explain why she doesn't like it...for herself. She's the best beauty TH-camr in my humble opinion. :)
🥹 thank you so much I really appreciate it ❤
@@sophdoeslife I meant every word 💛
I’m glad you did this video and addressed what’s happening atm! You’re one of the few content creators I fully trust! You’re so honest and transparent with all of us and we love it! Keep doing you girl! 🤍
The healthy mix serum foundation is my favourite especially in the summer, looks so nice on the skin it’s definitely more of a light medium coverage but with a bit of concealer where needed it’s so good! love you soph! Another gorgeous look! ❤
You have the most mature reaction to this I've seen. Almost all other videos on this topic I've seen have been so aggressive and harsh. I like how calm and genuine you seem. Makes it so much more believable and trustworthy.
I’ve been watching your videos for 5 years already and I love how you communicate, your honesty and your vibe. Thank you for your work ❤
Amazing makeup look, Soph! Thank you for being so genuine within this community
thank you❤
You’ve always been the influencer I’ve trusted the most, your honesty is so appreciated 💕💕
I've watched you for years and you're always such a breath of fresh air. Thank you for always being so honest and lovely. I trust your recs and so appreciate how much integrity you have. This eye look is stunning!
Love your honesty and transparency so much Soph❤️
i am literally sat here waiting for someone and was thinking about which boring videos to watch on TH-cam to pass time … when I get the notification that you posted a new video, perfect timing and the opposite of boring 😍
soph always posts at the perfect times
I LOVE this eye look!!! And your constant honesty and love for your followers ❤️
You’re such an angel🥹🥹🥹 I am not on tik tok so I didn’t notice the mascara drama but I love your videos and your opinions and always 100% trust your recommendations and opinions. Thank you for your honesty and kindness and just for the smile on your face to make our days better🥹💜 the makeup is stunning as always ✨
One thing I love about you is your honesty! Plus, even when you say you like a product, you ALWAYS say "but what works for me might not work for you" because of different skin types
That's why I trust your reviews even if it's sponsored
i wish we could get studio london in america! but thank you so much for being honest and respectful. this is why i've stuck with the same beauty youtubers that i've watched for years instead of bothering with tiktok because i just don't trust it.
Soph thank you so much for always being honest. I know that I can count on your review always no matter if it’s sponsered or not and I really appreciate that! thank you!!!
i love your eye look so much so good!!! i was so shocked when i saw her tiktok like 😦 are you for real rn 😦😭 you and morgan turner are genuinely the only people who i trust and who's content i look forward to
I appreciate beauty influencers calling out people blatantly lying to followings, it makes me trust you more
Thank you Soph. It's really hard to find geniuine and honest reviewers and influencers on any platform these days. You've always been an honest one, love you
I just love love your videos, your recommendations, your integrity, and your honesty. I don’t trust many influencers, but I really do trust you.
The more I watch Soph, the more I love her. So genuine and honest and really cares about her followers and understands that she needs to be a positive influencer. Love the topics she brings up, it's so relatable and it genuinely feels like she cares. So refreshing!🥰😇🫡❤
Thank you for all your transparency over the years, Soph. This video, the video about what skin REALLY looks like with makeup and in different lighting, and many others, have made you my favorite TH-camr. What happened was very unfortunate, but I'm glad we have influencers like you that are transparent about what they do.
Thank you so much❤❤❤
I love graphic liner looks. I do a ton of them myself. I hope you do some more. Obviously, you should do the looks you love, but you're so good at them, and i really mean that
You’re basically one of the only beauty TH-camrs I watch any more because I just feel like you’re super honest. 💛
Soph, Steph Toms and Jordan Lipscombe really are doing Gods work and carrying the whole of TH-cam beauty when it comes to realness! The only people I’ll watch when it comes to beauty products and product reviews! I’ve unsubscribed from so many content creators because money has changed them! Thank you for being you and for being real 🫶🏼
Love you and your content. I’ve heard you speak of ads in other videos and how you choose what brands to work with. You’re always honest with reviews and I really appreciate it 💜
i havent been into makeup/beauty-guru-influencer videos for a longggg time, but ur channel is such a breath of fresh air!! & we have the same skin type?? u could literally conviince me to buy anythinggggg! lol 😂
I would love a wedding makeup tutorial! I have a similar skin type to yours and am interested to hear what products you would recommend for special occasions!
Wait...I looked away for two seconds and you have drawn an entire graphic situation on your lids, like what?? I could never. You are so talented. I love your videos so much, and just to let u know I would trust u with my entire beauty routine whole heartedly. Your great Soph, I recommend you to so many ppl 💋💖
Aahhh thank you so much 🥹❤️
I love how respectful you are instead of just bashing the person. You truly are a role model!❤
Soph you are literally the only person I trust for reviews. Xx
You and steph are the one youtubers I trust. Yes I saw the mascara video with mikayla and I was shocked 😱 x
Omg I love that eyeshadow look, it's my favourite now, definitely gonna recreate💜
Thank you so much for being honest!! You are one of a few people I trust for makeup reviews!! 🧡🧡
Thank you for being honest and staying true, it's appreciated by us all. Also that eye look is GIVING! 😍
Love a swiftie taking any random chance to add taylor association, you're just like me😭❤️
OMG that eye look is everything 💜💜 Taylor would love it!!
Also thank you for your endless honesty and transparency!
Hey Soph, thank you for addressing the mess in such a gentle way, and also for always being honest with your reviews! Also, this look is so great and really gives off Lavender Haze vibes 💟
I never comment, but I've been following you for a while now. I just have to say that I always love watching your videos, especially when you try makeup because I know you're trustworthy! Watching you brings me "old Zoella videos" vibes 🥰
Sending love from Belgium xx
Thank you for addressing this! You’re the only one on TH-cam I trust when it comes to make-up reviews. ❤
exactly! everytime she posts i know i can trust every word she says. she is genuinely such a lovely and kind person. it feels like i’m just with a friend when i watch her videos.
I am SO happy Healthy Mix is back I used to love this foundation! X
I always trust your honest reviews, especially when you show makeup and how it looks in natural light/ pores etc I also LOVE how you promote the need for sunscreen, too many TH-camrs get burnt and don’t highlight the dangers to their young audience. I also struggle when popular TH-camrs advertise gaming apps that I know they never use 🙈 it’s so obviously fake.
I love love love your thoughts on ads and promotion of products!!!
i appreciate your kindness towards the creator and the honesty you always show with your reviews and ads. i was wondering what ur favorite liquid colorful eyeliners were? especially if they are long lasting
Lv how honest and respectful u r soph I definitely trust u my fellow brit
I love how Soph is like the only person I’ve ever seen who does that test with the makeup sprays. It’s really cool to see which ones actually set your makeup rather than someone just testing it and talking about it in a speed review type of video.
And one of the other problems with TikTok and any short form reviews, it’s way to short to fully explain how a product looks and wears. Take the kvd good apple balm foundation, it might look amazing at first but every single TH-camr who tried it didn’t like it because they just saw “wow this is beautiful” but nothing about how it looked at the end of the day or even how it looked after an hour. It is really frustrating how many people and brands still try to sell mascara with false lashes though, I think the average person doesn’t have the time or skill to wear lashes so it’s super annoying to see a mascara look amazing on an ad, but when you try it it barely does anything since the ad was using falsies. Even if they do disclose that, it doesn’t do a great job at showing what the actual product is supposed to do but that’s just the short version of my thoughts on TikTok influencers and mascara
And if I can offer a suggestion for a smaller and trustworthy creator, Kelly Gooch is one of my favorites for the last couple years (that sounds crazy but I’m sure I found her in 2021) she got me hooked on Sigma eyeshadows and now I have four palettes but they’re so good, no regrets here
That's how I feel about Robert welsh. He's always honest about everything, so when he says something is good or shit I believe him.
Hello from the States! You’re one of my favorite creators, especially because I trust your reviews and information. Thanks for that.
I'm also glad you did say something, shows you're not scared to be honest. That's what we want to see
ahhh the eyes turned out beautiful!
I used to love the Bourjois serum foundation! I used to wear it like 10 years ago before serums entered the mainstream and it was gorgeous for a drier skin!
Definitely trust soph! So friendly, genuine, truthfully, has great advice and knows what shes doing.
Liked all the products except the eyeshadow 🙈 (personally, but thats just me)
I love love the eyeliner! It’s so cute and I like it a lot. I’ve seen Makeupmissa use that setting spray, it looks nice. Thanks for commenting on the mascara situation and being honest. You are one of the few creators I know I can trust what you say & your reviews of products. 💜💜💜
Thank you for addressing this soph! I actually unfollowed the person who did it. She's completely lost any trust from her followers.
I've always watched your reviews as we have similar skin type so everything I've tried works really well for me. I always consider the influencers skin type for face product reviews cause the same products will work completely differently if someone has an opposite skin type! Xx
I love the bourjois healthy mix concealer! It's my go to everyday! 😍. The foundation looks so nice on you!
I have something to say and I hope you read it: first of all, THANK YOU for being so relateable and honest - I totally trust your opinion cause it really feels like a recommandation from a friend and I love that
second of all, using hot water for your beautyblender to make it blend better is the best hack ever it 100% works so much better for me
and third, getting the trust back from your followers after you lost it is so hard…I stopped following 2 influencers already because they lied and lost my trust…it‘s just so disappointing
rant over - I love your channel Soph🥰
Yay I'm here early! Was hoping you'd have a video out, and figured you would given everything going on! Thanks for always being honest and speaking with integrity! Love you and your reviews/videos - you've completely transformed my makeup routine and I'm forever grateful!
And that is the reason why I stay loyal to your chanel honestly.
You're suuuuch an artist!! I would never be able to do my eyeliner like that, it looks amazing :)
I love the way how you are actually honest to your fans ur my favourite person in the beauty community 💜💚💜
I really trust your opinions and the way you describe products really helps me pick and choose what I may or may not like. Even when you don’t personally like a product, I can tell if it’s something I’m interested in by your description and wear test. I’m 40 and have two young children so I have a very different lifestyle to you. I’m lucky that I only have a few fine lines (thanks to my mum who started buying me SPF to wear on my face from age 12 😊) so I know that your base recommendations generally work well on me, particularly the powders, as I have a similar skin type and I like the same look. I love the colourful looks you create but know that it’s not something that I’ll be purchasing or needing to recreate, my festival days are over 😂. I love watching it though! I don’t have the time or money to buy as much makeup as I used to- so I kind of live vicariously through you and a few other influencers! I’ve never really got into the influencer you were talking about as I’ve noticed filters, etc in the small amount of content I have seen from her.
I’ve started using Wild deodorant thanks to your review, sponsorship and discount code. I’ve been unsuccessfully trying to switch to a more natural option for years with no success- to the point where I’d decided not to bother anymore. I made a spur of the moment decision when you did a sponsorship and I love it! I took a chance because I knew that you wouldn’t advertise a product you didn’t believe in; so it gives me confidence to try it as if I don’t like it I can be sure it’s due to my own personal preferences rather than it being a bad product.
Integrity is incredibly important and is something I believe you have buckets of xx
You are my literally favorite! I'm so old you could be my kid but I still relate to your content! So refreshing, honest, entertaining, you make me laugh ❤️
That shade of blush looked AMAZING on you
I recently bought the healthy mix foundation when I visited Paris, and I love it so much 🤩 I completely agree with your review.
Also, I really appreciate you giving your opinion without creating more drama. Love you very much ❤️
You are definitely one of the content creators I trust the most Soph
Always trusted you soph, we share the same taste in mascara and foundation so I always love your recommendations you have never steered me wrong. If I'm looking for a more considered makeup purchase I always watch reviews for a few people I trust like you and Robert to see how you all feel about it. I was also very disappointed with the current situation but the hate she is getting I can't deal with that and the meanness, no one needs those things said to them but I'm sure she will regret it but we will see. Stay fab, I think I'll pop to town and look in superdrug at some of the nee brand stuffs. Thanks for the video ❤️
I seen you comment on her post and your the person who got me into makeup your my favourite makeup influencer I trust you so much when you say a product is good I go and get it I have been watching you since 2018 and my first eyeshadow pallet was yours xx
