*heyy butterflies little correction* 🤦🏻‍♀️ I accidentally referred to the a-passioni as an eye cream, because I only spent three days putting this video together instead of the usual week or two, I didn’t catch this mistake. This was in my head because DE’s formulator said on an IG live it can be used by the eyes, and then when Caroline Hirons called him out, DE attacked her. I am going to do some digging and see if there is another facial retinol dupe for this product, but this also goes to show that the eye cream I did recommend, from Paulas choice, it’s really just an overpriced face cream. Other than two or three eye creams on the market, most of them are a waste of money and we have done videos on this before - my mistake just goes to show that the ingredient lists don’t lie! Thank you to everyone commenting to help me correct this error, and if you have a better dupe in mind please comment below!

@chechinghsu9410 4 года назад

Thank you for your efforts 🥳🥳😇! The price of the dupe for baby facial Biossance( SQUALANE + GLYCOLIC RENEWAL FACIAL) is actually the travel size which is 0.5 oz. also it contains lemon peel oil which might be very irritating to some. In this case I think the ordinary 30% AHA would be a better choice if you just want the same effect from baby facial.

@AshFaye 4 года назад

Lol you’re all good! And thank you for getting this video out to us so fast and finding dupes for us! Since you mentioned that you probably wouldn’t purchase the Framboos dupe, as much as I really like that serum, I think once I use it up and recycle it I’ll take that time to try out some different overnight exfoliators. Again thank you so much for all of that hard work you put in for this video!

Ordinary owner Brandon said a lot of wack things but when he said "that'd you'd have to be drunk to pay 72 dollars on marula oil", he was RIGHT (you say it yourself!) I am so over these over priced skincare lines the Ordinary's Brandon started a huge movement of affordable quality ingredients for THE PEOPLE ! he said a lot of "bitchy" things but this was hardly it. Imo he deserved credit and the comparison. also thanks for the dupes ! great list!

@mollyoxy 4 года назад

Maha ys the ordinary is so cheap because they don’t do any advertising. The majorly of brands spend so much on advertising, commercials, packaging, etc. We’re talking millions of dollars. So when you buy higher end brands, most of your money goes towards their advertising and packaging. TO decided to let the products speak for themselves and spread through word of mouth... up until the founder passed and now it’s owned by Estée Lauder. They’ve started doing advertisements now. And TO’s newer products seem to have higher prices now...

@autumngeer2086 4 года назад

I don’t think that what The Ordinary did was shady or rude. It’s super upsetting for a company to charge so much money which the customers could be using elsewhere or saving. There are great companies who actually care about their customer. I like it when great companies call others out for being over expensive for no reason. 🤷🏻‍♀️ that’s just me though.

Mica is well-known for child labour and exploitation. Mica is usually sourced unethically through the mines in India. There is a short documentary on RU-vid where they visit the Mica mines - definitely worth a watch! It's by Refinery29 and called 'the dark secrets behind your favourite makeup'. Always make sure it's sourced ethically from the right people - lots of brands try to do the right thing. Thanks for the video also ✨💕

@saravargek7406 4 года назад

Cassandra, you are so eloquent that it blows my mind. You put so much effort into not only digging out all of this background information (that I don’t even know how we would find or how long it would take us), but you also do it so seamlessly and effortlessly! (I am also living for the “tea spilling touch” you do!) Contemporary consumer started caring, more than ever, about so many different things about so many different brands, that we literally hold so much power in our hands. For some it may be labels like “cruelty-free, vegan, fragrance free, essential oil free”, while for others it may be plastic or glass packaging or pure values of the brand or what the company stands for. No purchases from us for moral or whatever other reason, no survival of the brand in the current market. I am sorry to break it down to you like that, but honestly that’s just the way it is (and I am kind of really happy that IT IS that way, now more than ever). I am also so, so glad and grateful that professionals like you are continuing to open our eyes (and ears) to all of this “once unimportant” information that is nowadays considered a DEAL BREAKER. We make wise decisions. Guys, we are literally so powerful with our wallets as individuals, even more so as masses! OUR HARD-EARNED MONEY MATTERS! Time is up, sketchy brands! ⏳🧨 With all of that being said, thank you Cassandra on educating the shit out of us, we would be so, so stupid without you. There, I said it! 👊🏻

I bought the drunk elephant retinol and in all honesty it’s the only thing that I was using at that time that made my hyperpigmentation budge. It’s amazing I always wake up with baby smooth skin. They sell a small $20ish dollar one and I believe that’s a decent deal as I don’t use it every night as you shouldn’t with a retinol anyways. It last me a couple months and i decided that spending $20ish dollars every 4 months is definitely worth it for the results that I get ❤️

Besides the fact that the A-passioni is not an eye cream, the comparison of the price between it and the other cream is wrong solely because of how much product you get. The elta md eye cream has 15mL which means you pay over $100 for 30mL so it is more expensive than the A-passioni.

You also can’t compare retinol with retinyl palmitate, ffs, and that is basically the star ingredient in DE. I think that paulas choice 1% retinol is a closer dupe, at least you’d compare apples to apples, not apples to pears.

@icystorm9968 4 года назад

I really love how you educate people on of the sourcing of ingredients is done and how it affects our planet. You are such a hope in this capitalism centred world. I really liked the fact that you mentioned how bees are in danger and to avoid products containing bee derived products and how you said not to use products containing mica in them. You are so educated on these things and I just love how informative you are. Ps: a correction that I wanted to make was that the real important thing is that we need to protect wild bees the most as they pollinate most the flowers. Farmed Bee don't pollinate that much and can possibly drive the wild bees out of a certain area if they are too many in number. However the beehives (not the Beyonce one) are still important. Please try to look Into this topic as it's REALLY IMPORTANT FOR THE ENVIRONMENT AND FOR OUR FUTURE GENERATIONS!¡! 😊

@rachelsanchis 4 года назад

(I commented it already, but I'm gonna leave it here too, because I think its important.) She is right in saying that we shouldn't eat or use honey, but wrong in her reasoning. The bees that are in danger are not the ones producing Honey. Honeybees are efficient at collecting pollen and returning it to their hives, and because of that, they are not very good pollinators. Wild bees are much better. High numbers of honeybees can actively harm wild bee populations, because they compete directly for nectar and pollen. As a result, wild bees have to change their foraging patterns which has consequences for the plant community. When honeybees occur in high numbers, they can push wild bees out of an area, making it harder for wild plants to reproduce. Honeybees are not a substitute for wild pollinators, so we must protect the entire bee community to achieve good quality pollination. The reason why I feel the need to share this, is because a lot of people started to set up hives of honeybees in their gardens and on their roofs, because they think they are saving the bees, when in fact it's the opposite. Is much more effective to plant flowers, for example, then you can ensure wild bees have enough nectar and pollen and they can reproduce faster, giving us in return, more plants and flowers. Not using products with honey is great, but it won't be enough to reverse the issue.

Completely agree with you regarding Biosance Squalene Glycolic Acid Mask. I have used both, but the Biosance I find more gentle to use in compared to DE. I do want to respectfully point out that the $28 version is the travel size. The full size Biosance Squalene Glycololic Acid Mask is $68, however, Biosance full size is 2 oz, and comes with a spatula.

@z.p.2607 4 года назад

I use DE's products. And I'm not proud of myself bc of that. But. For some reason their cosmetics don't irritate my super hyper sensitive skin (and believe me, almost everything irritates me or makes my rosacnea come back). I love that hydra serum and I tried the First Aid Beauty one, but although it doesn't irritate me, I feel like DE's one is better, I can see my skin is calmed and better moisturised after the DE . Also tried that vit c dupe and it gave me redness. All vit c products give me redness except for DE. I don't really understand how it's possible, but I assume that a single ingredient or its concentration make a huge difference.

@alfaeustate 4 года назад

Z. P. Agree , same for me. Thank you for this comment. Most of these should be compared once actually used... As excited as I am to learn about inexpensive alternatives; I’ve tried a couple of her dupes - namely the Acure marula oil and Paula’s choice omega moisturizer - and both broke me out. The First Aid Beauty serum left my skin dry and the slip to it felt too laden with dimethicone. Also, a lot of her dupes have essential oils and silicones with some silicones for some reason having a propensity to clog pores more than others.. Both are triggers for acne, so I believe the concentration and proportions or levels of ingredients matter. I also am extremely weary of the stability and effectiveness of a vitamin C serum in clear glass packaging. I love a number of Paula’s choice items and do use The Ordinary, but all is trial and error. As a consumer, although I appreciate her tenacity and knowledge of ingredients, concentrations do matter and many cosmetics share the same actives and vehicles. It’s how the formula comes together. **** Acne prone and sensitive skin types be very weary of these dupes.

@z.p.2607 4 года назад

@@alfaeustate well said, I'm on the same page 🙌🏼 And I hate Paula’s Choice's stuff. All of these cosmetics break me out af. I'm also in love with Estee Lauder Night repair serum - the devil of the devils according to many. It's overpriced, I agree, but man! It takes all my redness away and makes my face glow. Currently on my third big bottle. I also use some stuff from The Ordinary and love First Aid Beauty ultra repair cream. Glad you mentioned that glass, clear bottle.

1) The A Passioni Retinol is NOT for under the eyes. 2) Just because products contain the same ingredients, it doesn’t mean they have the same efficacy. There is a difference in the quality of the ingredients as well. So yes something that is $9.00 might have the same ingredients as something that is $80 but the quality of the ingredients could be what causes the price change. (i.e. spices, clothing, etc)

@rachelsanchis 4 года назад

Hey, just so you know. You are right in saying that we shouldn't eat or use honey, but wrong in your reasoning. The bees that are in danger are not the ones producing Honey. Honeybees are efficient at collecting pollen and returning it to their hives, and because of that, they are not very good pollinators. Wild bees are much better. High numbers of honeybees can actively harm wild bee populations, because they compete directly for nectar and pollen. As a result, wild bees have to change their foraging patterns which has consequences for the plant community. When honeybees occur in high numbers, which happens when humans want to produce more honey, they can push wild bees out of an area, making it harder for wild plants to reproduce. Honeybees are not a substitute for wild pollinators, so we must protect the entire bee community to achieve good quality pollination. The reason why I feel the need to share this is because a lot of people started to set up hives of honeybees in their gardens and on their roofs, because they think it will help to save the bees and the planet, when in fact its the opposite. Is much more effective to plant flowers, for example, then you can ensure wild bees have enough nectar and pollen and they can reproduce faster, giving us in return, more plants and flowers. Not using products with honey is great, but it won't be enough to reverse the issue if honeybees keep reproducing while wild bees disappear.

Dont domesticated bees also have overall higher survival and pollination rates than wild bees and are protected from common predators? Edit: also really uncomfortable with vitamin C having a clear packaging makes the Vit C exposed to light which compromises it.

@tiny_weeb_rin5583 4 года назад

So the bee thing actually kinda bugged me ( pardon the pun). Bees do survive better in beekeeping hives compared to wild bees. Bees make excess honey and royal jelly instinctively, and beekeepers take the excess, and check on the hive regularly to make sure it's healthy. When wild bees have an excess of honey, groups of the hive tend to leave and attempt to establish new hives, which unfortunately has a low success rate. If beekeepers are giving antibiotics to their bees, its to protect them from illness. They wouldn't purposely poison their crop. Since beekeeprs protect their bees, it helps them to survive, so its actually better for the pollination of crops. I'm not really sure where she's getting her information, but any time I've looked it up, this is what I find.

@isoldel. 4 года назад

I remember reading a bee keeper ranting how she was so frustrated with a neighboring beekeeper that refused to give their bees antibiotics and lo and behold, their bees developed an infection that crossed into other bee colonies. So yeah, antibiotics shouldn't have been mentioned as a bad point here.

Bittersweet comment on the vitamin c packaging note - the c serum recommended here actually does not have pure vit c in it (like DE does), it’s a stable derivative that doesn’t oxidize like the pure form thus isn’t as sensitive to light and air. Good for the intended product, bad overall as it’s not in fact an actual dupe for DE’s serum (because of this and more)

Not to mention, honeybees aren't native and they're actually invasive, killing off local populations of bees. I'm confused as to what her point was.

Limit initial use to once or twice a week, gradually increasing frequency to every other night, and then every night as tolerated. Always use a broad spectrum sunscreen. Avoid eye area. “ this is directly from Drunk Elephant. I’m sorry but if you’re going to be reviewing them at least do it right.

@aghinia_ 4 года назад

I am in no affiliation with Drunk Elephant, I don’t even use their products. But you should probably specify that you are solely only evaluating the dupes by its ingredients. Yet making a product, any product, involved so much more than just ingredients. How the cream/solution is formulated, the manufacturing process behind it, there must be a reason why Drunk Elephant’s is so much more expensive. You could have one material, and manipulate/treat it in two different ways, and have completely different results (potency, efficiency, etc). Chemicals are so sensitive, a change in a unit of temperature/pressure in the manufacturing process could potentially jeopardize the quality of the product. So maybe, Drunk Elephants’ are so expensive because of the following: they have tighter specifications/criteria of a “batch passing”, or they always throw a batch if they think it’s jeopardize (even though they could have justified it but they play it safe because they have high standards), they specifically designed their containers to retain its pH, maintain its storage pressure, avoid environmental factors from permeating into their products. All I’m saying is, there is a reason why a product is much more expensive. To really compare them and call them “true dupes” or “basically the same product” you can’t just judge them by their ingredients. A lot more aspects goes into it. I appreciate your effort of making this video. I’m truly just voicing out my opinion. I only say this because my background is chemical engineering, and I work in a manufacturing production for years. So this is my opinion when I see your video. Aside all of that, love your content and your passion towards skincare!

@mingy2392 4 года назад

Very well said. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 I was thinking about the same thing. Using same/similar ingredients does not always mean they are equal, or you are guaranteed to have the same result you wanted. Like two students use the same study materials does not necessarily achieve the same result. I believe the processing also makes a big difference.

@src4409 4 года назад

100% cold pressed Marula oil ... same and only product... big price difference.

@aghinia_ 4 года назад

Sammantha Combs it could probably go into how the Marula Oil was cold pressed/processed, and yes it could be 100% of the oil content-wise but how was the oil processed/concentrated? Was during the cold pressing the oil exposed to rapid pressure change? Because oil rapidly change in structure when it is treated aggressively. So yes, it’s the same ingredient: Marula Oil, but the whole engineering process behind it matters to the final quality of the ingredients. Maybe Drunk Elephants’ are super careful when processing this ingredient- a whole lot of expensive machinery to keep the quality intact. And maybe other cheaper products don’t do so. Again this is all hypothetical, I am only speaking from a manufacturing engineer perspective.

@lucy3030 4 года назад

hmm could you clarify a little more how you determine something as a dupe? i’m far from attached to drunk elephant as a brand but specifically for the vitamin c dupe you mentioned, i would be concerned to use that because of the packaging, a clear dropper bottle, which is just asking for oxidization with such a volatile ingredient. drunk elephant is overcharging for sure but at least they’re packaging products responsibly. i can’t imagine that that product would function the exact same way. the cleen one also has ingredients like alcohol that would make me not consider it clean. also: that brand is a subset of walmart; if you care about the environment or animals or human rights or anything that doesn’t seem like a good brand choice to endorse. also also: it’s actually good for bees to use honey if it’s farmed responsibly! i was vegan for a long time but always ate honey because it actually impacts bees positively. anyway just my two cents at the end of the day all of these brands are bad and just want our money capitalism is what it is

@truebaronesse5653 4 года назад

When is someone going to start talking about quality, purity and/or grade of the ingredients? They all look the same on the inci list, but we all know they are far from being the same. And I am in no way trying to say DE has better quality then the mentioned dupes. I am just saying that we as a consumer have no way of doing an informative purchase, if we have 0 information about the true quality of ingredients.
