Wtf was her response to Robert. It was just a word salad and made no sense. She seemed to think she did something there but came off as arrogant and tone-deaf!
What really got me was the 'redemption' thing. Like 'oh wouldn't it be great if this was James Charles' redemption?' No?! How would good make up redeem being a predator???
She ended it like Robert was coming for her. Telling him to "chill". Acting like he was furious and raging at her. He wasn't. He just stated the obvious.
@@SarahSynaNO CAUSE THAT GAVE ME A HUGE ICK, LIKE HES A PREDATOR WDYM REDEMPTION? Like what kinda of mindset does she have that would make her say that?
She gets it 100000%, she just simply doesn’t care 🤷🏽♀️. The only reason she stated the influencers she did is because she KNOWS they’re controversial and why that is, she wants clicks and engagement no matter how it impacts how her audience sees her. Views/clicks do equal money after all. Absolutely sad and frankly disgusting when we’re talking about a racist and a predator here. Not just someone people don’t like…
I don’t think they realize how much the lack of integrity has turned people off of the beauty community. I cant even remember the last time I searched for a makeup tutorial. I stopped shopping big brands because I genuinely have no idea what products are worth the money. Some of us rely on honest reviews when spending money we save on products recommended from people were supposed to be able to trust.
I buy products that interest me and make up my own mind whether i like them or not. You can’t rely on reviews because everyone has different needs and different skin
Man I LOVED glamzilla, why did I not know she was doing this?? I've been so invested in her health journey and she seems so nice. Meanwhile Mikayla gave me mean girl vibes. Can I trust NO ONE in the beauty world????
@@eatmyoctopus as I’ve gotten older I’ve learned this more. Not to listen to waves of hype. My skin is not everyone’s. Especially being a BIPOC it is so hard to find products that work for my skin tone.
Been buying color pop for almost 4 years. It’s about the only products I’m willing to spend my money on, never seen them in controversy, and I’ve never had a quality issue with them. ✨
If you don't already I highly recommend watching Johnny Ross' podcast with his co-host Kevin called beautiful and bothered. They are both highly versed in the makeup world, funny and aren't afraid to talk s*it about brands and products. Also Robert was on an episode of the podcast.
Glamzilla's response was ridiculous? Um, no, his comment was and everyone else who wants to hold everybody else to their own personal moral standards.. she simply wants to talk makeup. You separate the art from the artist, like the whole world constantly does (when its convenient..)
I can’t stand her condescending attitude. The playing dumb of “I’m not supporting them”, “I’m just a girl”, “It’s just makeup” is the epitome of influencers wanting to be in the drama and drive up views. She’s been in the beauty community and she knows the scandals like we all do. She’s going for controversy and she sucks for it.
And trying to use her ethnicity too that was super gross. Like is it so difficult to be a good person? Sure I’m curious about JStar cosmetics because the colors appeal to me, but I’m not gonna support him BECAUSE HES A PREDATOR??? It’s disgusting honestly and makes her other good faith gestures seem very preformative
She’s so insufferable. Her wanting to buy the predator palette just to “try it out because she is curious” while being so passive aggressive towards Robert was a choice.
That was the part that disturbed me. How dare we call out a predator, right? She just wants to buy from the predator without being called out. And if his makeup is good, then we can just forget everything he's done /s 🙄
She thought she was being clever, sassy, shady with that response to Robert's comment, it gives socially akward and it's low-key cringey, she looked like she didn't know what to say or do and was grasping at straws.
It’s important to keep the conversation going though, every day kids are getting into beauty and they don’t know yet if they haven’t been exposed to a lot of beauty content.
Right it’s obvious most of the time they putting on the theatrics just waiting on the 💰. Just be real. Sometimes the products are worth it sometimes it’s not. So others shouldn’t be mad if your so quick to follow after people 🙄.
If Robert Welsh said he was dissappointed in me I think I'd have a heart attack Him and his brother are such wonderful contributors to the beauty community and if there's any influencers I would want to be associated with it would be them hands down I don't like to put people on pedestals (humans are only humans) but they are probably in my top 4 or 5 content creators
Her response to Robert was embarrassing & immature, I honestly had to fast forward. He explained perfectly the issue and it completely flew over her head, like is anyone home up there? There’s so many small brands out there to review especially if you have a love for makeup.
I kind of hate that putting out anything negative, immediately gets you removed from a PR list. I remember those headphones everyone advertised for a while got a really ‘meh’ review from a sound expert on their PR list…and he stayed on the PR list - the next ones he got, had a note saying “Sorry you didn’t like the last one. We took your feedback into consideration. See if you like these better.” Honestly, I felt that was SUCH a power move by a company. Being able to take feedback (including negative feedback) makes me far more inclined to buy, than just having tons of influencers rave, so they get more free stuff. Plus, if I know an influencer will be honest, anything they DO give a good review, will be ten times more convincing than the IAMSHOOOOOOK crowd. Bring back(?) honest reviews - but also bring on brands, who can handle it, rather than collect their toys like an offended toddler.
@@shahanaparveen2413Raycon. I got curious if they were actually any good when the sponsorships started being EVERYWHERE - that’s when I found the video.
Nah, she’s done this before. Y’all remember the backlash she got when she called a girl weird? I miss genuine reviews, when the big companies hadn’t stuck their noses into the beauty community.
Well I don’t think it’s the big companies fault, it’s these influencers/creators since they’re selling their integrity for money. Instead of denying certain sponsorships or at least being completely honest, they’re lying to everyone. It’s really sad to see
"Don't you guys just wanna know??" Clearly we don't 😅. She got a resounding "NO" from her audience and still kept asking until she got the answer she wanted.
That Fenty foundation stick looked horrible, compared to the Laura Mercier. Laura Mercier makes hits and rarely misses with anything within the brand. She was paid.
I think it would have looked better if she blended down, I know she said summer shade and all, but I found the undertone disparity so distracting. That being said, even without the color, the Laura Mercier finish looked better on her, at least on camera
I honestly looooove the fenty stick foundation, but saying it is better then the LM? While looking like the way it did on camera? No. She could’ve gone with the eazedrops ‘for lighter days’ or other shit to eat fenty’s ass. But she made the weirdest choice to do a comparison.
Also, you would think if it's her favorite foundation that she would have it in her correct winter color. Tell me that she doesn't love it as much as she is passing it off to be. She didn't even try that hard to make us believe it either.
Robert Welsh's response to glamzilla reinforced my love for him as a creator. With all the dishonesty in the beauty influencer space, he is legitimately one of the only creators I feel is trustworthy and responsible with their content- absolute class act
@@terra_the_nightingale135 This. The reason why I only follow the Welsh Twins nowadays bc they are professionals. Robert himself is licensed and reliable. They always go into detail why a product is effective or not and not just randomly gasping for every product they'd use.
I also enjoy Johnny Ross, and his podcast with Kevin. They have no problem calling out bullshit, and both have experience as MUA's and in the beauty industry.
@@lauradacuntoYASSS! So fun to see a fellow @beautifulandbothered fan in the wild! I can’t recommend them enough. Johnny and Kevin’s expertise, education, experience, humility, and humor are unmatched. They truly are just on an another level when it comes to knowledge, artistry, and professionalism.
I feel like when they talk about tik Tok beauty gurus they're a bit jealous that they fell off and that's the new trend not RU-vid where they were more popular on
That reply to Robert welsh of her saying “I’m just a girl” and “I’m your Canadian Asian Latina bestie” “I didn’t know you had expectations of me” “I’m a fan” Really feels like she is trying to make him out as a the big bad man attacking his fan who is a woman of colour and minority in her country. It also feels like she is trying to appeal to young woman of colour who hold distain for white men (Robert is Latino with a Mexican mother to my knowlage but is white passing) which is sadly becoming very prevalent in America and Canada. Also bring up that he’s mentioned his own political views feels like her giving a reason for those who may disagree with them to side with her in case this becomes drama. Overall I liked glamzilla before being a fellow Canadian and seeing her support schools in Toronto as well as small Canadian businesses but this has really given me a taste into her much more negative qualities and I don’t believe I will be supporting her any longer.
Ya… what people forget is Mexicans come in every color. Depends on the heritage. Some can look black, other traditional native and some Spanish blood (blue eyes, fair skin, blonde or red hair) Mexico is truly a melting pot. So I hate when people try to make someone out as a bad person or a racist when you genuinely can’t tell by appearance alone. I’m Mexican and I look like a Spaniard. People literally think I’m from Europe.
I feel like Glamzilla gives me the same ick MLM pushers do. She feels so disingenuous like she turns off the camera and immediately is a different person
Does Glamzilla think that the more she whispers the less cancellable she is? Why does she start whispering to try and sound casual instead of making an actual solid argument?
How he execpts people to hate another makeup brands products just because of the person who owns it🤦🏻♀️is it good or not is very much so that simple 🤷🏻♀️not everyone virtue signals
13:20 I don't care if it's good or not! I don't want my money going into the pockets of creeps and it's pathetic that influencers think it's ok to monetarily support these kinds of people
If she were really “just curious about makeup,” she could always buy those products in private, try them on her own, and find out whatever it is she’s dying to know. Why bring her viewers into it while simultaneously pretending like she doesn’t have an impressionable audience?
I don't care if Jeffree Star has the best concealer and James Charles has the best face brands. The best products belong to brands that I don't support because I don't support their moral compass. For example, L'Oréal because of animal testing. Their products could make the best skin and my taxes. If I don't support the values, I don't support the brand.
Manny and Laura b!tching is RICHHHH. Those two were some of the biggest sell outs. They took every sponsorship, pushed every product from companies that paid for them to go on lavish trips or parties 😂 They were the literal inventors of the sneaky influencer game. WILD.
i have to say, there are days when i feel like the worst person, and then i just remember these influencers doing this shit and suddenly i feel alright lol
Kids, listen! These influencers are no different than companies that ran commercials on television! This audience may be too young to understand🤷♀️ Influencers are just cheaper commercials, why can't we understand that it just evolved!
I find it very ironic that Manny and Laura are speaking on this (it should be spoken about, don't get me wrong) when they partake in this very underhanded tactic and have done so for years. Just.... bffr.
Laura using the wrong shade of Essence foundation claiming she loves it, when in fact, just like the others, she didn't care about Essence until they wrote her a check, lol
I very much distanced myself from Robert when he did the review but I also had lunar beauty product at one point (I've since decluttered tho). I love Robert's makeup advice but yeah, I don't follow him anymore too. @@blueeyedscorpio7
This doesn't surprise me at all. Laura honestly drinks up Manny's bathwater at this point too- like her popularity is contingent on people still loving Manny. And neither of them know how to shade match. @@catherinevaz6139
Its the tone-deafness for me and how she completely ignored the comment "youre directly funding them." By funding controversial influencers you are associating with them and supporting them. It doesn't matter the "curiosity" of the formulas, if you KNOW someone has the unforgettable and unforgivable past like those influencers why support them? "Im just a girl that likes makeup" and? Theres hundreds and thousands of other brands, buy those instead.
I know!!! Like is it THAT hard to simply and honestly say “ this product is sponsored by yadayadayada “ like we want HONESTY. The reason we watch reviews is for the HONESTY.
Okay people, listen carefully. You cannot rely on influencers opinions for products. Go to your local beauty store and grab a sample. These people get paid to open their front facing camera. Stop trusting them!!!
I’m someone with really hard to match skin. Like, tan cool olive. Right now I look green like someone who has been out to sea during a hurricane 🤢 green. I trust NO ONE😂.
I find it ironic that she can’t trust the reviews that are already out there of these controversial brands, so she MUST try them herself 😂😂 she’s literally calling out the entire community 😂
I feel like at this point if some influencers become blunt and honest about being paid or not they would gain so much more support and loyal followers for being so open. Having trust with your followers will create a brand loyalty that is long-term profit.
Glamzilla is clearly clout chasing. She’s just jumping from her next big thing to her next thing. When she doesn’t get her desired result well then you gotta pivot.
I think it’s funny to hear manny & Laura acting like sponsorship-baiting is a new revelation they’ve never thought of before, or like they could never 😂
My thought when I saw the video was that most foundations looks nice when they are first applied, are still wet, and especially with a smooth application like a flat brush. I could make several dry, cakey, badly wearing foundations look amazing if I stopped the video right after swiping it on and then blending it in?? If something did look bad 30 seconds after applying, I dont know how it made it out of product testing 😂
It also bothers me that barely any of these people do wear time tests to prove the longevity of the product. I can name only one person I actually watch that does and she can prove to me that the foundation is as good as she says it is. And you can tell time has passed just by looking at her application and then the time skip. I almost never believe these people's bs, over the top reviews when they can't even show me their face a couple hours later 😂
Just block these influencers whenever you see something sketchy. they can't "influence" if they are blocked by everyone. I don't understand how some of them still have fans, when they would sell their mama for cash.
I’m also convinced that the company’s behind all these promotions that are not disclosed are the main contributors to this bad trend. I would not be shocked if information gets leaked showing that company’s are specifically paying people to not disclose that their sponsored
i saw jeffree reviewing this from glamzilla’s review and was like… ew are we seeing the same thing? the foundation is ugly and minimal coverage and they were acting like it was the best thing ever
I don’t watch influencers and don’t have tik tok. I just bought the Laura mercier foundation , had no idea it went viral and had never heard anything about it. I can tell you that it is really nice. I really like it. It’s buildable and it stays on your face all day. My old foundation would rub off. You should always try things yourself
Oh Amanda Barrett----I wish I could be that naive too. Girl... come on now. lol Also "please don't put expectations on me" GIRL YOU'RE AN INFLUENCERRRRRRRRRRR That comes with the territory. We EXPECT you to be HONEST. We EXPECT you to DISCLOSE. We EXPECT you to be a decent human being who won't monetarily support TERRIBLE people!!!!
You can easily achieve that shiny, dewy look with hemp oil. It's cheap and a good moisturiser for people with dry/very dry skin/sensitive skin and those prone to spots.
glamzilla can do whatever she wants but she can't get nervous or defensive when she knows there will be consequences and backlash for her public decisions
For her to disrespect Robert like that is honestly a joke. She obviously still didn't get the point after that interaction with him. The man knows what he's talking about.
Laura and manny acting as if they were the nicest beauty gurus of their times. Laura was always praising Kylie cosmetics but when she didn’t receive PR , suddenly she started disliking her products
it’s just the way i really am just used to seeing reviews that are either sponsored or unsponsored all the time that when i hear recommendations from certain influencers i just don’t have a trust with most! i rather just try the product myself bc a lot of these influencers are only in the industry for the $$$
did she really say "for redemption, wouldn't this be the best thing you ever came out with?" about JAMES CHARLES? REDEMPTION????? what in tarnation????? like the expectations were low but damn
The way she talks is like when the main character is begging the casting directors for the main role even though she fell when walking on-stage and couldn't hit any of the notes.
Omg her explanation video triggered me. She sounds so cute and innocent in her reviews that i see but hearing her real talk nd seeing her real scary facial impressions... Gave me real villain vibes :/
“I’m just curious, I just want to know”… no. Just NO. If you KNOW the poor behaviour of the person you are buying from, you ARE DIRECTLY SUPPORTING THEM. So the fact that she doesn’t care about the person she is buying from means she doesn’t have any personal morals.
The Fenty foundation looked terrible in comparison to the Laura Mercier one 😅 she was obviously salty… Edit: I got second hand embarrassment watching her response to Robert Welsh 🫠
Totally agree , the fenty looked heavy on her and wasn’t even her shade , it was darker and kinda orange whereas the Laura Mercier’s shade was spot on and looked better 🙂
“I love it so much I’m still using my summer shade” lmao!! That color looked horrible on her.. it’s like she grabbed anything close to her and started recording…. Trying to get the shade of of her dumb ass.. I use fenty personally and girl that is not your shade loool lawd my head
When they technically speak too much about the product, you know it's sponsored. A typical consumer would just buy, try and react on how the product feels and performs. Why do people give so much power on influencers who most of the time we know are a sell out. They are the modern equivalent of an infomercial trying to push you to call and dial that number now.😅
This glamzilla girl is like the next gen of that girl 5 years ago on youtube who always says amazing things about Kylie cosmetics just so she will always be on their PR list.
Robert is one of my all time favorites. He is non biased and just gives us his honest opinion. I think hes very smart not going after fellow beauty influencers. Who wants all that nonsense drama? He just talks about the product and moves on. Love his content. 🖤
Mallory Brooke said in one of her videos that a few years back she went on a brand trip and Glamzilla was one of the influencers that was really rude and stuck up lol
