skincare market: essence, ampoule, hydrating toner
Rihanna: f a t w a t e r
God I love her
right? lol
lmao
I'm so done with this 3.298 steps of skin care. I'm happy that Riri made a 3 steps routine for us basic bishes.
Lmaoooo!!
Thicc water
The ethics behind the company and the effort they put into reducing the amount of packaging is AMAZING
Absolutely.
@G K I think she is referring to their environmental ethics with less waste products and packaging and the reef-friendly sunscreen.
@G K Fenty is owned by LVMH and they also own Estee Lauder which has been quite lax in creating products for deeper skin tones. LVMH also owns Too Faced which got in quite a bit of drama for bullying Nikkitutorials. They also own Sephora who fired quite a lot of staff via an email because of COVID-19 effects on their sales. By contrast, Ulta continued to pay their employees and keep them working where possible. 😬 The assumption is that Rhianna put a lot of work into the Fenty line but, aside from high level line development, she is mostly just the face of the brand. That said, Fenty does not appear to be problematic. Some people will not support LVMH because LVMH appear to tolerate what some perceive to be racism and homophobia and unethical treatment of workers in their other brands so they won't support Fenty either by default. Like anything, do research and speak with your coin. 🥰🥰
@G K I think she's referring to the sunscreen, you can buy a refill and recycle the empty bottle (10:07)
BeauTK Unfiltered ah the points made are very valid but her shade range was revolutionary and made other brands step up.
At least she didnt do an overpriced make up wipe like Patrick Star.
Exactly
Ane he suggests using with a make up cleansing spray non the less. Like what's the point of the wipe then?🤔
no mud no lotus marketing, money. I was so excited when he announced I thought it was going to be makeup or something useful, not Pam.
“Juicy” wipe... it felt like I was wiping my face w/ a towel. 🍵🐸
Alyssa Rizzo Pam 👁👄👁
Bahahaha!!!
im not kidding. The Fancy background intro gets me HYPED every time
yassssss!!!
Same !! 😂
Fancy is that song!
Same!
same
I totally agree! Celebrity skin care lines are a lot of the time just a money grab...BUT, when it comes to Rihanna - I’m on board. Will I buy it? No, because that shit is simply suuuuper expensive here in Poland😂
I feel like she just really is putting in the work and attention to detail for things she makes! It doesn't feel like a cash grab with her - it feels like something she's passionate about and cares about doing well. People miss getting new music from her, which is fair, but I really think she's poured her heart and soul into fenty the last few years and it shooooows
you really fooled us in the first half!
Będzie to można kupić w Polsce w ogóle??
@@juliajanusz9439 w Sephora ? I na pewno przez internet też można poprzeglądać 🤔
Kathi - same as here in Australia 🤣🤣🤣
PLEASE READ / THINGS I FORGOT TO MENTION:
I don't think I made it very clear that this is a good line for those who are just getting into skincare / aren't massive enthusiasts like us! We love our longer routines and a good Factor 50 sunscreen! I feel like this caters for those who wont otherwise wear a sunscreen everyday, isn't really sure what a serum does and doesn't do a 2 step cleanse. So a great basic routine for those people. For us who see skincare as a hobby and love it, its maybe a bit basic and we already have our favourite alternatives that we like to spend our money on.
The products smell like a burnt caramel / candy floss 🧐
SPF 50 would’ve been better and will always be my preference!
PRICES:
Cleanser: $25
Fat water: $28
Moisturiser/ SPF: $35
Not crazy considering all these items are a 2 in 1 but I still think I’d rather pay for my faves as separate and they’d still come in a little cheaper.
When will they be released in the UK?
Honestly those prices are Vichy level and if the product is good it might be worth it.
I'm a slave to The Ordinary but always open to new things if they're not La Mer level prices 😂
I think it’s a line to entice those who feel skin care isn’t made for them (Kbeauty is great but i admit it scared me for a long time because i am just not white/fair). It’s also meant to entice men. I admit that as a Fenty Beauty fan, i want the fat water despite having 3 toners at home.
Agree with you. I think this is geared towards the younger crowd and a good introduction to skincare I would prefer an SPF 50 but if this gets young people into wearing sunscreen this is a good thing. Me I’m older and not interested but great video
Sweetie, you said that many times in the video!!! I think people just glossed over you saying that because I was thinking about getting this for my daughter who is just getting into skincare and makeup. Thanks!
fenty skin fat water's packaging looks like bio oil
Thought that I was the only one that saw it like that 😭😂
Omg it does!!! 😂
Now i can't unsee.. thanks
What I thought too lol
OMG I thought the same thing 😂
Would I like them, YES but do I need it NO. *The minimalism in me has taught me to value what I have and use it more, so I get to spend less = save more*
Yup I'm on board w that
I agree... ugh... and I’m going to do it right after I buy this 🤣😂
T Stevenson SAME 😂😫
Finally a wise comment
Same
Although the formulas may not be for me, I love the packaging details like the cleanser’s twist-top & the moisturizer’s pump dispenser!
If I'm not mistaken the Drunk Elephant cleanser had a twist-top just like that and people gave them hell for it until they switched it up lol. But yes, the Fenty Skin asthetics look amazing
Gabriel Figueiró yes people bitched about that because it leaked. They changed it because people complained so damn much. I liked it. You have to be pretty lame to not know how to close it tight enough.
@@gabrielfigs the mini one still has the twist top 😂
Gabriel Figueiró yesss my drunk the elephant thing leaked so much
I JUST NOW realized that you have a twin brother and I’ve been watching both of your channels thinking you both were one person.....
*laughs like Robert Welsh
Dude same!! I found out a couple weeks ago and I was so confused
👁👄👁
Wtf I'm tripping out right now 😂😂😂 I had no idea they were twins lmao
I had the same problem after discovering Robert's channel xD
Lmao 🤣
People: I heard it's fragrance free
James: uhoohoohu....... It's not. 😂😂😂😂
Rihanna said it has fragrance
@Ethreè’s Cliniqué Yeah true and she said they also clearly stated what kind of fragrance incase a person is feeling doubtful
1% of fragrance.
Alright everyone.. people were speculating BEFORE the launch that it's fragrance free, and James already had the products so he knew they're not. Rihanna clearly knows what she's doing so let's not take this out of context.
@@makkachinsmamma7785 Thank you for this, I think people are taking it out of context.
Hearing James talk about how much fragrance is in these makes me scared to hear what Hyram will say😂😂 Thanks for the honest review❤️❤️
Hyram has left the chat 😂
I was LITERALLY just thinking that! I was like, "Oh, Hyram isn't gonna like this..."
He uploaded his video and he was super sweet as usual
Hyram was, as expected, way too soft on this line.
Check out what Dr dray had to say, she doesn't hold back 👍
People saying its boring..?? Like what would've been exciting for you then??
A sunscreen for black women is the most exciting thing ever! No white cast, no flashback!
I think what people are missing is who her true demographic is. This is for people who are still using makeup wipes to remove makeup and probably don’t do anything extra with their skincare except wash their face. As far as black skincare goes, this is revolutionary. As for the price, people are acting like this is drugstore products. This is being sold in Sephora with other name brands. If you have ever walked around Sephora, this is an amazing price.
Girl where have you been living under the rock ? Sunscreen with no white cast is on market for decades now lol. She didn't do anything revolutionary you can find better sunscreen for 15$ with no fragrance and 0 white cast on the deepest shade of skin.
I can't stop staring at the moving purple dots on the wall. It's like a lava lamp 😂
Hokulyne A now I’ve noticed them I can’t stop staring
Just noticed it can't stop watching now lol
Thank you now I am staring at them🙈
where is it
I think it's a Mathmos projector.. the same people that invented the lava lamp...
james waiting for rihanna to send him cheque for full fat water: 👁👄👁👆 🤣💕
LOOOOL!
Seriously that’s what I thought too.
I
she is a caring business woman, she wants to have products that are ACTUALLY good. Kylie is an acutal business woman, all she cares about is the money, easiest ways possible and probably has everyone do the work for her. Whereas you can tell Rihanna actually has a majority of say on her products. She works for us, Kylie works for herself
I’ve been reading a lot of comments from people who feel that these products don’t measure up to their current Asian skincare products. For us skincare junkies, I agree - they’re probably too simplistic or too basic for our 6-10 step routines. That being said, for those who are brand-new to skincare, those who have never heard of hydrating toners - people who still think that St. Ives apricot scrub is safe to use - basic can be a really good thing. The fact that they’re launching with a hydrating toner AND an SPF moisturizer tells me that they’re already drawing inspiration from Asian skincare trends. I also think that launching an SPF as a black-owned beauty brand will help to dispel the myth that those with melanated skin don’t need sunblock. I think this launch can serve as a solid gateway for someone wanting to up their skincare game. I really hope they listen to their consumer base and make fragrance-free versions for sensitive skin.
Side note, I LOVE that they’re using refillable containers. We really need more western beauty/skincare lines that are *actually* being eco-conscious instead of merely claiming to be eco-conscious. I’m looking at you, Lush Cosmetics.
I totally agree with you Im highly melaninated but will get sunburned with the quickness if I don't use sunscreen. So to me this was a great first step in launching her skin care. Hope there is more to come and also fragrance free as you stated. :)
That long 6-10 step skincare is overrated it’s just made to make women spend more money well all you need is a cleanser and moisturizer even a toner is not really important. I have seen people using natural stuff and their skin is amazing and some use tons of products and their skin is bad. I think everyone should do what is suitable for themselves and not what the beauty industry wants to make millions from people. Also people with oily skin don’t need tons of steps because it will clog their pores i guess for someone with super dry skin would follow the korean steps, everyone is different
thank you for bringing that sunscreen thing up i was literally told when i was young that black peoples don’t need sunscreen and now i’m 14 and play sports so am in the sun allllll the time and am just now looking into it
You’re not a true skincare junkie if you’re using a 6-7 step routine... you should know better
The packaging on these products look really nice, but I'll still stick with my korean skincare 😅
What's a good Korean skincare brand you recommend?
Noreen De Loera cosrx, krave beauty, I’m from
@@deloeranoreen Missha, Cosrx, Isntree
CosRX is great! And Banila Co. Is good too I use them for my double cleanse system
@@deloeranoreen purito, is so amazing, you have to try their sunscreen
The line is kinda underwhelming. Which is good because that means I don't have to spend money on it lol.
I think she was focus on the environment and what she likes. And than come back and listen to the consumer after seeing the reviews. That's smart planning honestly.
Doll Face...what do u mean underwhelming I have not purchased it yet was curious about your comment
She did a good job, doesn’t seem like a money grab at all, proud of her! You can tell a lot of time went into everything.
Thx for your honest review. ❤️
She didn't do anything, man. It's just her name on the bottle....
Creamy Goodness yeah, this is true. She put hardly any effort into it lmao. FENTY’s marketing must be good if all these people think she’s calling the shots.
*He
A A91 she’s the ceo of fenty lmao she’s owns half of it she has a HUGE SAY on what she wants. That’s kinda what a ceo does lmao
How is this not a money grab? She's selling a pricey but basic, underwhelming line, nothing revolutionary about it at all.
Honestly my eczema can handle a little fragrance however a whole skincare routine with fragrance is where my skin tends to get irritated at times. I wish brands wouldn't put it in everything.
Yeah your skin wouldn’t like this! Yeah there are certain product where I just don’t think it’s needed
James Welsh I was eager for her line since I know her other ventures have been successful but honestly I’m just going to stick with my Korean skincare brands. I honestly thank you and my skin thanks you for introducing me to good brands especially for affordable prices. I never got the hydration my skin needed with US products and love how hydrated forward Korean brands tend to be
FACTS. especially lotion. Fragrance is annoying 🤬🤬🤬🤬
That packaging is innovative, especially how you can get refills for the moisturiser. Well done, Fenty.
Yeah it’s innovative if you don’t know Japanese have Bering doing that for years.
Tainted Life Ha, you’re right, I wouldn’t have known that.
Why would you want to get refills for this moisturizer though? By the time you finish this up Rihanna will have come out with a new one and all of social media will have forgotten about old ones.
Creamy Goodness Fair, but considering it’s SPF, and maybe someone just really likes it...
@@Creamy_Goodness for people who like this specific moisturiser
When rihana said affordable but $25 cleanser😭😭 20$ for a cleanser is luxury for me
well, it's affordable compare to the price of her make up line. 20 i can deal, but 38 for foundation? no sireee
it’s affordable regarding to the market.
If it’s under 30$ it’s label not expensive.
Again, if you want quality on you skin you won’t get it with a 5$ cleanser....
Most of the cleansers at Sephora are $38, so $25 is not as bad. Plus if a little goes a long way, it’s should last longer.
@@hajeraa there are amazing Bioderma cleansers that do not cost that much
But it's really not tho cause real luxury brands cost more than just $25
That’s a shame about the fragrance because I’m quite sensitive 🤷🏼♀️
Yeah you may not like this then!
It's 1% fragranced
Same. I never use fragrance because 1) it gives me a headache and 2) it irritates my rosacea.
question regarding your rosacea. Fragrance doesnt seem to bother mine HOWEVER, any 'orange' fragrance does BUT lol also depends on the product. Like in a serum, my rosacea hates it! Do you know what fragrance ingredient irritates you in particular?
Yabsira 13 Thats 1% more than a lot of sensitive skinned people can take 😂
Wowwww first fenty skin review I’ve seen! No lie I haven’t even watched this thang. But thanks for uploading it and I’m excited to watch it all. Been loving growing in my learning of skincare, for myself and for friends 💚💚💚
when it comes to skincare reviews, I only trust james 😤😤
❤️❤️
I really appreciate when james links his research and explaining more tips when apply products.
I feel like James is the only skincare content creator who has the most calming and satisfying videos
Calming is such a good way to describe it! Straight up just the info we need and not too much dramatic presentation.
Honestly! I really don't like skincare creators who scream and overexaggerate their faces but James is so calm and I could sleep to him!
Yes it's nice! I'd say liah is pretty calming too :)
Not going to lie the packaging give me Florence by Mills vibes..
Agree. But it's nice to see her not get dragged for it. Rihanna should be able to use lilac/blue if she wants to. If it had been Huda, the claws would have been out unfortunately.
huma mumtaz No one should be dragged. Whenever packaging is similar to another Brand it makes me think about the other brand and defeats the marketing purposes
I was really looking forward to this launch but I hate that basically every product contains fragrance 😢
Same, I don't want another dermatitis flare up that takes months to go away :( So sad!!!
They are less than 1% so it’s not bad
ljay.r It’s definitely not bad but a lot of sensitive skinned people can’t tolerate anything above zero. I really hope she brings out at least one fragrance free product because I’d love to support her line!
SaBr 417 understood!
Me too. Fenty beauty foundation is the absolute best colour match and finish that I've ever used. Sadly I can't use it because it gives me hives, the fragrance is so strong. So I won't even bother with this Fenty skin line due to the fragrance. My skin is very sensitive and I use fragrance free cleanser and makeup. Love to see Rihanna doing her thing though!
i love when james puts fancy by twice as his intro, it’s pretty sick
To be honest, I’m a bit disappointed. These three products don’t seem like anything special with no active ingredients. For the price, I think there are much better products out there that will actually do something.
Read the ingredient list sir
Yess, I thought I was the only one saying this and everyone was disagreeing with me!!
If the sunscreen doesn’t have a white cast then I think it would become cult for so many people with a darker complexion. Idk if that’s the case but if it is then it’s a good release
Katherine I agree, that would be so important, and I have a feeling that she would have defo thought about that!!! I wished it was 50 but that’s just me and my spf loving ass!!😂
I think it’s marketed towards those who don’t really have a skincare. Like it’s the most basic products, and not confusing for a beginner.
The products are NOT for skincare junkies. It is very much for ppl who doesn't have a skincare routine yet or who doesn't like to have too many skincare steps and wants it very simple and doesn't mind fragrances. I think it was *the best celebrity/influencer skincare line so far* cos the rests are literal money grabs.
Nah this is money grab as well basic sunscreen for 35$ plus with fragrance it should be hard skip for anyone. It's shi* line she should keep herself in makeup market. I want to see innovation and research based skincare line instead of money going to fragranced water with cheep oils.
Thank you for talking about its ingredients. Their ingredients are not available yet in their website!
probably cause they are shit
@@fiorella7805 actually they are really not that great 🤷🏻♀️ not too bad but for the price ? there are a many better skincare lines which are a lot more affordable.
WHEN THE SKIN GOD CALLS I ANSWER
Thank you for such a fair, balanced and articulate review, James! I feel like I’ve gotten a good idea of the products
Omg i was waiting anxiously for your thoughts on fenty skin
Ohhh that click lid is fantastic! I love it! 💖
Also that sunscreen looks so lovely and light and smooth, not super thick.
Love the little extra side notes and comments you put in now.It unconsciously makes the videos even more informative than they already were ❤️
I love listening to you speak. Your voice is so soothing. Sending love from 🇨🇦
thank you, I was waiting for this!!!!
YAASS GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT JAMES 👏
Perfect timing! I saw an ad for the new FENTY Skin and thought "Gonna wait to see what James says before laying out the money."
I clicked SO fast when I saw this (and the one from Lab Muffin Beauty Science). It seems the products were about what I was expecting. I don’t think I’ll purchase for me but I imagine a lot of my friends (who aren’t skincare people) would love these! Happy and excited for this launch and all of the beautiful people getting the sponsorships! 😍
You’re one found gem in my life. You’re the only one whom I have subscribed and like ever. Love from India.
Aw thank you ❤️
I love how detailed you always are in these videos
Been waiting for this from past 8-9 hours...I was just waiting for u..!!
“Mal-peekia. .” 😂😂 I love to see this because I do the same thing in my videos with ingredients like bisabolol (probably spelled it wrong because I was sounding it out)
Automatically do the fancy choreo every time🤟🏼
Love how much you've been posting 😍😍
Hey James! I am new to your channel and am happy to have found your videos today!
I truly appreciate the transparency!
It has been a long journey building my knowledge on skin care as a thirty-one year old. So much has changed and I am overwhelmed with options. Over the past fifteen years as many do, I have tried a great deal of products that spoke to me or were recommended to me by estheticians, friends, girls at the beauty counter etc. I felt like my skin was dull, needed to be brighter again and my blackheads still needed attention!
Some products worked a little, some I never bought again. LUSH’s Kalamazoo Beard/Face and a Rodan+Fields sunscreen was all I kept repurchasing. A mask here and there, I loved getting facials (who doesn’t?) until my schedule started getting busier and appointments were harder to get. Blah, blah, blah - I wanted something new.
I am with you on the celebrity brand lines. Fenty was one I was excited about trying though. Not that I thought it would be revolutionary for my skin, but I had an inkling that it would be done right. I have oilier skin, sometimes dry but not often. I couldn’t find a great sunscreen that didn’t leave some sort of white shade behind to some extent. I craved a simple routine. I bought all three products on launch day and have noticed less breakouts, healthier feeling and looking skin and I’m satisfied. I’m almost out and have a second round ready to go. The Fat water is my absolute favorite thing I’ve ever put on. I do hope for an exfoliant as well as a specific night cream in the near future. I will keep my eyes pealed for that review when it does!
Thankfully, I believe your review lined up with mine; better educated, obviously! I was reluctant to click on this video but happy your views were positive.
Based on a few of your other videos on FaceBook- I decided to look for a BHA. Do you have one you would recommend using?
i'm up at 3 in the morning to watch James, who needs sleep lmao
It's 9 am where I live😁
EST GANG
sameee
2 am 😂🤦🏻♀️
Me too 😀it’s my Lexapro, it makes me wake up periodically in the night!
I just saw Rihanna’s video and now I’m looking for all the reviews!
This is the review I’ve been waiting for!!❤️
can’t wait to watch this later! i was patiently waiting for your opinion on this!!
This is the second review of Fenty skin and I'm still underwhelmed and not running to buy these. I like an SPF but I wish she had a regular moisturizer. This isn't something I'd use at night and I don't want my products doing double duty. Issa miss for me!
The sunscreen moisturizer is a big miss. It must be seperate or ppl won't use the actual correct amount for sun protection.
@@alkhemiaaugustine3764 even worse, you can't use it at night.
Nobody:
James: *post at 3:00 am (well, 3:00 am in Canada)*
Wow was waiting for James Welsh for our queen's new skincare line review and here it is yeiii
You’re trending!!! Excited for you ❤️❤️❤️
When I see Fenty, I cry in poor.. Their stuff are so good but soooo expensive in Asia
I know 😒 they add up like $10 on the actual price
@@eric0556 aandd BEFORE shipping T_T
Girl same! God don't even get me started on the shipping charges. My Indian mother would throw chappals(slippers) on me if she even ever saw my cart.
Samee
girl, If I were you I would never buy anything besides korean skincare! I wish it was available in my country
I knew I would get an honest review from you I’m so glad you got the PR early to try ❤️ It seems the line is kinda meh but the packaging is super cute and user friendly. I love Rih but I’ll probably never try these because the products have fragrance and my skin is stupid and hyper sensitive especially to fragrance 🙄😭
Yasss I've been waiting for this, can't wait to get my hands on them
I was so waiting for this review. Thanks James!!!
Does anyone else find this underwhelming? I was expecting a lot more from Fenty skin, usually they listen to what their customers want but the fragrance in every product is a turnoff. I’m sure the product is good, but not good enough to make me want to shell out money for what looks like just another typical celebrity skincare line..
Maybe they show us these 3 products to see our opinion and then they will come up with more? Its risk to launch many products at same time so yeah maybe thats the point of it.
yes.. I was very excited because fenty beauty is amazing. But the skin line is meh.. and the spf is actually really bad.
I just so happened to type “fenty skin” and I’m already seeing reviews. So I’m early to this video on accident.
I like how honest these skincare reviews are
after 4 minutes of watching this video I gave it a like and subscribed to your channel! everyone is so caught up with being 'real' these days that I can't seem to absorb the information properly with all the 'bloopers'. this is a legitimate old school YT makeup video AND I'M HERE FOR IT
James I recently watched a video of yours where you slightly touched on the subject that storing skincare in your bathroom is bad. You didn’t go into details but I’d like to know why it’s bad and where is it a better place to store skincare. Maybe you can make a video titled “Where to store your skincare”? That would be amazing and if you could touch on why it’s bad to keep it in the bathroom.😊
The SPF might be something for the wintertime. But for summer I definitely need SPF 50+
Same same same
Yeah I was thinking the same thing especially living in South Africa anything below 50 won’t cut it 😂
I am so grateful you reviewed these!!!😩🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽❤️❤️❤️
THIS was the video I was waiting for !!
I literally JUST finished watching Rihanna's pitch on Instagram and your RUclips notification popped up. Lol perfect timing. ❤️
Is that a sailor moon crecent moon in the background and a mimikyuu? Cute~~
Yeth very cultured
I been waiting for this video😆😆😆 I lowkey been binge watching all of your and your twin brothers videos. You guys are amazing!!! Skincare and Makeup true artist🧖🏾♀️💄
YAY! i was waiting for your review!!🖤🥳
The background music got me
When I saw she called the toner/essence/serum thingy ‘fat water’ I was like 😱 James calls his thicc toners fat water!! Get your check James!! 😆🖤
the packaging and the texture of the "full water" looks interesting, lowkey want to try but i feel like it wouldn't be that mind blowing
I've been waiting for your review on this. I love her and the packaging is always on point!
Well, this was super quick!
Before I watch this: I’m already kind of bummed about the little I‘ve gathered about the line. Perfumed lotions always sting my face, as do chemical sunscreens and witch hazel. 😔
same... any fragrance (even in cleansers), witch hazel, chemical sunscreen is a big no no for my sensitive skin...:( I will never understand why brands still use these ingredients when there are non sensitizing alternatives for all of these active ingredients, and fragrance is just all in all unnecessary
doeb23 I understand you there for sure. I guess fragrance allows for a somewhat aromatherapeutic experience, which I’m sure is nice, so it makes some sense that some formulators insist on its use. Too bad that it’s pretty sensitizing for our skin.
@@doeb23 But mineral sunscreen leaves a white cast no?
Jasmeen I’d prefer a white cast over agitated skin lol
@@jasmeen5712 i am white as paper, i use lightly tinted miner sunscreen (paula's choice) and never go out without makeup either way so personally the white cast is not an issue for me, but I know that medium to darker skins may experience this. First of all - medium to dark skins are not as sensitive as light ones, so I imagine a chemical sunscreen would be well tolerated by those skins, and secind of all, if your skin is darker, yet sensitive and you can only use mineral sunscreen but it leaves a white cast - you can still put on a light veil of foundation on top to correct it. I am not saying chemical sunscreen should be banned, I am saying there should always be a mineral option too. Ex, Paula's Choice has a mineral and chemical sunscreen in every product line.
I'm just excited that we might actually be getting a decent celebrity skincare line! Rihanna never disappoints lol. I've got my alarm set for that launch!
You're still gonna buy it after watching this?😅 there are loads of cheaper korean brands that are SO much better 😊
@@niamhcostello4766 well she can buy whatever she want sooooooo
Niamh Costello Dont be a skincare snob lol. A lot of people may be turned off by fragrance, but some don’t care (i.e. me since it’s not the end all be all of destroying your skin lol)
Gucci As Always They just gave an opinion and I agree. Why buy something expensive when there are much cheaper products that work better. It’s not my money that is spent but it’s just a sugestion.
@@niamhcostello4766 Yes lol. I love skincare and trying new products. I am also a content creator here on RUclips and Instagram so it'll make great content as a small creator.
I have been waiting for this!!!
Soooooo freaking glad you reviewed this. Didn’t realize they had sent PR. I seen the commercial. I signed up no questions asked. Going to buy on the launch.
I feel like it’s a mistake to market the products for everyone. Especially a skin care product because everyone has a different skin type, some may also have sensitive skin, pro acne skin etc there’s so many possibilities it can’t be used by everyone. FS products are fragranced, Rih said she has sensitive skin so her skin may tolerate the fragrance but I don’t think it was a smart move to say it was also meant for sensitive skin
We gotta keep in mind it’s a working progress her for launch of her foundation could have technically been for everyone but you gotta work around it , a year last she came out with the hydrating foundation (which I had to wait for her to launch because I’m normal dry) considering some of these celebrities makeup line don’t care about nothing but to cut a check I think she did a good job
So glad u reviewed this and was honest think I will pass for myself as fragrance is a no for me and I like my skin routine I have but I will prob buy for my 14 yo to get her into a skin routine and wearing spf as she's a nightmare not wearing one mayb cute packaging will help 😁😊❤️
Yeah I think it’s great as a starter kit or like a basics!
Good morning! Now this is a great start of the day😍😍
I love the honesty from your channel even when all of the products been sent to you, I feel like it’s still important to be very honest and even if 1-2 products didn’t work for certain skin types it’s totally normal
When James laugh I laugh 😂 BTW could you check the brand FaceTheory? I had my eyes on them for awhile but no one is reviewing them
Me: wow it’s late, I should get to bed
*James posts Fenty Skin video*
Me: well what’s a better time to watch this if not at 3 am
I just saw the Fenty skin post and was thinking ‘I’m not going to buy this till either James, Hyram or Liah reviews this’ and here it is! 🤩 James is ON IT.
So excited to watch this!
I was excited for this but everything seems just ok. Like clinique or simple. Just meh. If you have perfect skin i guess this is great. My main skin concern, hyperpigmentation wont be tackled here so maybe ill save my funds *update... i bought it all :/*
Lol😂🤣 same girl! Hope you like it
N K girl im so weakkk 😂😫
Ahahahaha. I love this. I wanna buy something even though its meh. The moisturizer for days when I'm just home.
I recently just bought the whole set, I haven't used it yet. I wanna ask, is it worth it? have you seen any changes in your skin? I wanna know if I should continue to buy these products.
Am I the only person who actually likes the smell of sunscreen with no fragrance?😂
I'd say I prefer when products smell like (or almost like) nothing, but maybe that's what you mean?
Roll0112358 for most products I prefer when they have no smell but I like the generic smell of sunscreens oddly enough. It reminds me of holidays even though I use it every day.
If your sunscreen smells to something it's because of the fragance😒
I like the smell of sunscreen too I didn't realize so many people hated it until recently! It reminds me of going outside to play or swim when I was little
Same! I assumed it was completely normal to not only like the scent, but also associate it with a holiday or vacation. I use it daily simply for its smell. 😂
Honestly, your videos make my day:)
I really appreciated this review and I feel similarly to you! Such a great starter launch and I feel like skincare beginners especially with oily skin would benefit from these products!
Me:I love fenty beauty products, can’t wait to try their skincare
James:it is very fragranced
Me:cries in eczema
I’m so so sad about the fragrance and hope she comes out with a fragrance free line . Also the witch hazel, whyyy
I'm more concerned with the ethics she has shown as a business woman with SavagexFenty. It came out in February that they are in trouble for misleading marketing and automatically including the VIP membership in every cart without listing a price - leading people to be charged $50/month without their consent.
blayne314 I don’t like that either. I haven’t shopped on SavageXFenty because it’s not ethically made, which seems a bit disingenuous coming from someone who claims to be environmentally conscious and claims to care about underpaid workers. But alas... it seems hardly any clothing companies really care about that nowadays. lol
@@MorganM2399 true, but it just frustrates me when people sing her and both her brands praises without being informed. I've actually had to start avoiding watching certain videos from people I like because now they work with the brand but haven't said anything about it and there's only do many times I can rant in the comments and be ignored. And Fenty beauty has troubles to, they have been called out for bullying influencers with threats of lawsuits if the share an image of a leaked product. That they didn't leak themselves, or solicit, or even receive directly from the person leaking. Not even prefaced with a polite request, just straight to lawsuit.
blayne314 Yeah totally, I think there is a huge element to all of these reviews of the influencers just liking Rihanna as a person and not wanting to speak badly about her product and upset her.
@@MorganM2399 that definitely has to be it...just liking her as a person. The only really honest review I've seen so far is from Dr.Dray 🤷🏽♀️
I know I can always trust you with your reviews and as always, this was super informative and honest, so thank you for that!
OMG if I ever can put my hands on fenty skin? 😱 At least I watch James review this and hope for best 🙏
I absolutely love the “millennial blue” American accent moment 😂
