people get mad because your "breaking" things that YOU paid for😂💁 anyways i love this channel 😊💛
thanks! yes, we do get a lot of people mad 😊
I don't understand why people are so precious about it! It's not like they're buying it then throwing it in the garbage once they smash it up...but who cares, they paid for it!
Raeann Tapia Right!? Plus, it's not like they throw it away when they're done with it.
Sarah Sayer exactly, they use it after! TBH I was like them and thought wtf and was kinda hurt but then I realised that it's their money and they are still useable plus it's for a reason, not just damaging them for no reason. I'm a horrible he makeup love but I love these videos
Raeann Tapia you're
"that's what you're paying for! fucking corn flour!" haha
I love how they have NO chill. They aren't being overpolite to the point of lying like a lot of beauty gurus.
rsaffron7 😂😂
rsaffron7 the way she says it thougggh
Just to clarify. We didn't assume that this was just made out of talc and corn starch, we noticed the corn flour texture and looked into the ingredient list that confirmed what we suspected. These are the ingredients of this product in case you were interested: Talc, Nylon-12, Magnesium Myristate, Distarch Phosphate (CORN STARCH), Magnesium Carbonate, Hydrated Silica, Triticum Vulgare (Wheat) Starch (WHEAT STARCH), Silica, Parfum (Fragrance), Meteorite Extract, Sodium Dehydroacetate, Aluminum Hydroxide, Glyceryl Stearate, Caprylyl Glycol, Pentylene Glycol, Cellulose Gum, Sorbic Acid, Aplha-Isomethyl Ionone, Benzyl Benzoate, Linalool, Benzyl Alcohol, Limonene, Amyl Cinnamal, Butylphenyl Methylpropional, Geranoil, Cinnamyl Alcohol
Meteorite extract?? What the heck lol
BEAUTY NEWS MÉTÉORITES PRIMER 😁 its so curious looking, i think it needs to be dissected.
BEAUTY NEWS wow. I had been curious about this powder. I almost bought it. But I'm allergic to wheat. So glad you guys posted this. I forget to check sometimes
Strange talc powder is widely used here to puff heavily on all babies neck and bodies.
How?
I love how your videos are so conversational. Oh yeah....destroy the Lancôme rose highlighter!
Jamie Askvig - I asked them to do that one in their last video. They replied saying they looked for it but it was sold out everywhere. Hopefully they keep looking and get their hands on one. It looks like it would be awesome to destroy lol.
They can get it at Macy's if the ship internationally
KnowledgeNerd destroy the lancôme rose highlighter!!!!!!!!
Jamie Askvig That would be so cool! 👀 I wonder how they'd get the powder, tho.
Sarah Sayer they have done it I believe
Years and years ago, my late grandmother gave me a face powder that had little balls of all those colours imbedded into the regular beige powder compact, and it was hands down the best powder I've ever used, it made my complexion look better than anything else has and I've been looking for it ever since, so I wouldn't be so quick to put this stuff down.
That was an entirely different formula though...so I don't think that's a good comparison.
Watching them blend up is weirdly satisfying 😂
ikr
This was so interesting. While my heart hurt to see this, I love when you guys think of stuff like this because its warranted because you pay so much for a normal $65 powder.
A makeup channel with common sense!! Lol I'm subscribing. So many youtubers talk about how each of those colors somehow help your face individually
Rosey Morearty it's literally a gimmick. I personally don't really like products like this because they are messy and kinda don't do anything
If you look up videos of vintage makeup counters from back when they would mix up face powder for individual customers, you can see all of the same colors go into making skin toned face powder. Apparently, if you keep the colors separated and package it nicely, people will pay two or three times as much for basic face powder that is sheer as heck.
Why is this so satisfying to watch, even when your a makeup junkie?! Love your channel- congratulations on 20K 😘😘
Thank you Jo :) xxx
Jo Wayte I know, right?! One part of me is sad when the makeup gets destroyed, but the investigation is so interesting! 👀 Plus they repress, so it's not totally destroyed- just not as perfectly pretty when it's repressed.
BEAUTY NEWS your now on nearly 300k 😅
@@BEAUTYNEWS now 545K.. you go girls!! 💕
I love that u guys don't mind cursing, i love it
Oh you should check out books by the Beauty Brains too- they're cosmetic chemists and go into details about how companies "trick" us
I love that blog!! It's a podcast now too. I go there to search ingredients all the time :)
I majored in chemistry and about halfway through college I got super interested in cosmetic chemistry and did a lot of related research, and for whatever my opinion's worth I can also say that the Beauty Brains are great and I can't recommend them enough. They occasionally will oversimplify something to the point that an answer will feel a little misleading, but imo that's a necessary evil that they're much better about than any other beauty bloggers/writers I've read so far. It makes it so that anyone can research what's in beauty products regardless of their existing knowledge, and I fully recommend that anyone who wears makeup at ALL looks into their blog/books
Sarah M who do you recommend the most?
Sydney Loethen i tried to search them up and sub! I couldn't find them. Can you tag or send a link pls? x
Wow that was amazing! Cornstarch who knew. Cheaper to buy a box of cornstarch from the supermarket and put it on your face. 😂
Seriously. Mix in some perfume and press it and you have this powder.
sodasimba maybe add a bit of cocoa powder for a tint
sodasimba but actually you can totally do that. Use it for sweat absorbing
sodasimba Gurl, right?! lmao. Cheap DIY there. 😂😂😂
but imagine that flashback though.
Dear god that grinder was satisfying
"Fucking cornflower" I'm SCREAMING I love this channel 😂
Is there cornstarch commonly in face powders? That's really concerning for me but would make a TON of sense as to why these types of powders a lot of times clog pores and break people out.
Michelle Schloemer yeah, it's a very cheap filler that's less obvious on the label than talc
Michelle Schloemer, yes. I bought the MAC prep and prime powder and it was mostly all cornstarch. I still like it but t doesn't justify the price.
Aaron Cajti I was watching a minimalist makeup video yesterday and she made her own face Powder with corn starch and cinnamon, and she said it worked well and blurred her pores and fine lines
What was her reason for adding the cinnamon? I would have thought that would be a skin irritant.
J LP well I guess it is an irritant if it used on its own, but with corn starch it's good for your skin, repairs skin, and gets rid of blackheads. But it was used for tint, to adjust the color of the corn starch to be used for face powder. There are a lot of recipes for powder online that use cinnamon but also other alternatives for tint. some of the most expensive HD powder is just straight mica, which you could get much cheaper without the name brand name for TKB trading Co
why do people get mad at them the videos are just kind of to inform you about the quality of products and if your getting what you paid for. If you don't like it the go watch some beauty gurus put the crap on there faces and not tell you if your getting good makeup and how much product you pay for. oh and talc has been recalled so you probably shouldn't be using this any way but do you..
thank you for being so sensible x
Janae Johnson I agree that's why I enjoy this series just started watching this is actually helpful to know what you're paying for
Mackenzie Johnson talc is bad for u but they don’t use everything they destroy I was just worried about them breathing in that dust of talc after breathing it as it’s so bad for the lungs ☠️🤮
There are two different types of talc, industrial and cosmetic. Cosmetic is safe for use and has not been recalled.
Too bad you didn't love this. It's one of my favorite products, I love the violet & candy fragrance, how it mimics natural luminous skin without looking pearly, never looks cakey.
Great idea guys, this is turning into a really fucking cool series
AHH THE METEORITES :) i was at my local department store just before xmas here in the uk and the sales girls at the geurlain counter were putting out the xmas display of the festive edition of this product- it had extra sparkle as some of the pearls were snowflake or star shaped or something. well she was opening them up and the lid was stubborn and i saw her give it a stubborn twist and the little suckers just flew out all over the place and the department store was all shiny tiles so they went for miles and it was busy so they were getting stepped on and ive gotta say stepping on several of them was quite satisfying lol
Haha! I would've been laughing so hard.
Reading the ingredients, it's corn starch, wheat starch and cellulose gum. Gross.
I love it when you swear. I would be pissed if i paid that much for that
I am so glad you guys did this, meteorites has always been a product that intrigued me but I could never spend that much.
Don't they also do a meteorites perfume?
samantha meraz perfume? I don't think so. Perhaps you are thinking of the meteorites primer?
PS: I have tried many light diffusing powder. Hourglass Ambient light is waaaaaay better than Guerlain. And slightly cheaper too.
samantha meraz They did! A limited edition perfume a long while ago. Love the smell of this powder.
samantha meraz if you're interested in this kind of product check out elfs mineral pearls :)
Monina
and Elf has a pressed version.
Am I the only one who watched this with tears in my eyes, I have these meteorites as well the holiday collection of meteorites and I love them, especially love the smell :-(
Hmm torn I would never pay for this but a friend of mine gifted me one for Christmas because she loves them; it does have a strong lavender smell which is their signature smell even in perfumes (not great for sensitive skin tho); its is sold as a finishing powder meant to be used after you have applied and set all your make up to give it a finish look just like the hourglass ambient light powders (common misconception since they are not highlighters but uses as such) , even tho I despite the price tag I can vouch for the effect is real pretty and really makes an overall difference on the finish result then again I hate the $$. Now I am an avid project panner and many products as you know are not meant to be repressed as they loose texture , pigmentation etc due to the alcohol used to repressed them this is commonly know thing in the project pan community that is why most of the time I have given up on repressing some products cause they just lose their workability. Not hating , playing devils advocate like I stated would never buy it myself but I can't deny that in their original form that they work fantastic.
Videos like are killing me, but I come back everytime cause its so fun! Sort of like roller-coaster's. First it was My Mimi, then Meteorites. What's next Burberry eyeshadow, Charlotte Tilbury blush, Chanel highlighter. I love mine too much, but subscribed for this series!
LOVE IT! you guys are slaughtering the beauty sacred cows! I'd read about these things, they were always described as the bees knees, but you just saved me a bucket load of money. Thank you.
I love that product. It illuminates my skin beautifully and to be fair you should have try the powder in balls as a highlight before you broke it. That would be a fair comparison. Talc and corn flour helps skin to stay illuminated but not oily.
belarissima yes!! I was thinking the same thing! Use the product as it was meant to be before you destroy and judge it on his it comes out after destroyed. It makes no sense!
I bought these “little balls” and I must tell you they do make a difference in your face. They brighten and add luminosity to your skin.. and they actually smell very nice. I think they are worth the money. They will last forever...
I am glad you enjoy them x
What normal person gets butt hurt and defensive over little balls? If you like them, who cares? You like what you like. No reason to be upset because someone else isn’t keen on them
YamiNoGame The fuck you're talking about? No one's getting sad or butthurted here.
I actually love these videos! I get upset when it's entitled people who destroy things like jeffree star... but you guys doing this for research and stuff is so awesome! I'm addicted!
Thanks so much Tiffani, we always make these to test something or to find something out.... you would be surprised at how many people don't even understand the point of them! 😝
BEAUTY NEWS i really appreciate these videos, especially when you guys talk about ingredients, saves me a lot of money!
Diamond powder is actually worthless. So you guys are right. No point in buying this
Oh my goodness this broke my heart! I've always wanted these but I would have NEVER guessed that the ingredients were so cheap. It is SO disappointing to know just how bad it is. They are so beautiful & the packaging is amazing & they seem SO luxurious. This is a PERFECT example of how packaging & marketing can make something really look like something it's not.
Thanks for this series---I'm a big fan! :)
I like them. Packaging, presentation, slight shimmer...I don't mind the scent (I wouldn't even buy something if I hated the scent, such a turnoff). I'd hope people would be smart enough to read the ingredients and decide whether they think it's worth it for them. It's also lasted forever for me. 😊 Neat video! You guys in Australia pay insane prices for cosmetics!
I think with this, it boils down to if it’s worth it for you
Elf has a 6$ dupe for this powder
Sharina omg i didnt know that!! Is it in ball form like this or just regular compact??
Misty Bandy Elf has it's "mineral pearls" for $8 on their website. It comes in both natural and color correcting colors. They aren't very good (at least for me), but if you want it for the "look pretty" aspect you can put them in a cute glass or clear container for decoration.
Avon do a suprisingly good one too. I have sensitive skin but get no problems from their version and it really does look beautifull, pigmented and wears well.
I have them both the guerlain are so much better, I love them, have been using them for years
So satisfying and such a rip off! Also love the bright pink lippie.
I'd love to see you destroy a tom ford eyeshadow quad, I love them and would love to see if I'm spending my money well
Haha we can't even afford to buy one of those for us to use personally... buying one to destroy might be in the future, but not now :P
I love you girls! I love that you do these destruction videos for educational purposes, then repress them (if you can) and use them. It's educational and I learn a lot of interesting info, but you're not wasteful. Plus, you're hilarious! 😂❤️
Love you ladies, thanks for being so original!
Diamonds have been exposed for having no real value (except the big price tag the jewellers put on them) so not even impressed by the added diamond powder! Thank you for saving me money!
I just found this channel and I'm so excited about it! Definitely subscribed.
Funny I was just looking for one of these videos. Lol. Good timing.
Uuuuuuuh I LOVE the smell of the meteorites
Ronson Peters hah same! Love violets.
Wow I can't believe it, corn starch? Amazing smh. Love your videos ladies! Keep making these please!
by far the most interesting makeup breakup ever(granted there are not that many yet, but anyway)
Loving this series. Would like to hear more about the ingredients in certain products and what you're ACTUALLY paying for
We aren't experts in ingredients but we can definitely start talking more about ingredients if we see anything interesting. Thanks for the suggestion x
You should get a makeup chemist on board! Talk with the folks over at the beauty brain's blog. I bet they'd be willing to partner up and go into detail about ingredients. Even better if you could eventually afford an outside lab to see if there are any hidden ingredients. :) to the future!
I loved this video! Very eyeopening. Most of the times we are just paying for the brand name and that's ok if you want to support them but I prefer quality over the hype. Keep making this type of videos please!
I actually like the smell of Meteorites. Cool video, girls!
These are very informative! I'm glad for this channel and these videos A LOT!!
Actually, it's a powder that has been in the market for 30 years and has always been hand made.
Of course you pay for the packaging and the brand but you also pay for the people working behind it and the quality of the make up. Guerlain is 100% made in France in their own factory which would cost much more than private label something from China like many other cosmetic brands do.
What I am saying is that you should always consider more than just the ingredients but also the product from start to finish.
Great Video Anyway ;)
We do consider many factors but ultimately it's up to you what you put value in and we never tell people what they should and shouldn't buy, we just offer another perspective to give people more information. A factory in France or China actually makes little difference in the outcome of the product, but if French made is value to you then definitely buy the product! 😊
BEAUTY NEWS
I understand that some products in China may be of great quality however what matters to me is how the people working behind the product are treated.. when I buy a product at Guerlain, I know that every person that was involved in the process of making it can afford a comfy roof on top of their heads and food in their stomach..
But again that's what I value..
Can't we have a product made by a company that treats its people well AND at the same time does not give me crap for my money?
Bo Vander S Yep poor & working class people who can't buy luxury French brands are anti-labor rights. Nevermind that there are small companies online who are employee owned & still are affordable with good value for money.
Bo Vander S I completely forgot about them, I really like them.
Wow you guys are seriously knowledgeable about makeup. I aspire to reach that level
this was so satisfying to watch...use the coffee grinder more often!
I had no idea Guerlain used corn starch...well, there ya go. Glad I didn't waste any money on those! (I almost did back when I worked at DJs...almost fell for the fancy packaging!)
I just want to say you ladies are doing great things with these products! You really break things down for consumers and make them think sensibly about just going out n purchasing products just for thier looks!! Kinda makes someone think twice when they see them broken down in this light.. Great job ladies..💫
When you really suck at applying makeup and then resort to watching people destroying it. It feels like watching someone destroy my worst enemy 🙂
I never get sick of your uploads both here and your individual chans x
I have been watching these videos on repeat! So satisfying!!!!!
So glad i found this! These pearls have been in my loves list FOR EVER. No thank you!
i use nearly all of GUERLAINS make up products i LOVE the meterorites and collect all the limited editions ..... given they are at the pricier end of the spectrum but OMG I just LOVE anything by GUERLAIN ..... :)
Four seasons bronzer :-))))))))
I LOVE YOU GUYSS!! ITS SO SATISFYING TO WATCH MAKEUP BREAKUP VIDEOS 😍😍
Please destroy Charlotte Tilbury blushes
It’s 100% normal for all the different colours mixed together to do that. If you mix art the primary colours together, it will turn brown. So, if you mixed pink, yellow, green, orange, purple together, naturally it will turn into a muted brown colour 😊
Keep it up! I don't even like makeup and you're one of the few people I watch for this type on content ❤️
It smells AMAZING!!! People are seeking parfum with this scent
Looks like violet, smells like violet... but does it taste like violet 😂
This is MUBU was really interesting. Keep up the great work ladies 💜
Guys! It is really unique what you doin here. So different and makes it interesting.
obsessed with these videos!!! please make more!!! 😘😘😙😙😙
I do love those, gives such a nice glow to the skin! And I do love the scent.
Love these! Keep'em coming please! You two are great!
Love this! I have never tried Guerlain and at the beginning I loved the packaging but no way would I put heavily fragranced makeup near my face! You guys have debunked the myth that expensive = better! Are there any plans to smash some Chanel products? Lol, getting addicted to The Makeup Break-up! ❤️
We actually will be breaking apart a Chanel blush soon. It probably wont be up for a while though because we have Colourpop, Becca and Morphe products that we have going up over the next three weeks x
BEAUTY NEWS Excellent 👏😊 I look forward to it!
The lancome rose blush! i want to know how much there really is and the ingredients!
We SO badly want it too! Its not yet available in Australia and its sold out everywhere online :(
I have been contemplating buying these too! Thank you :) LOVE your series!
You do very entertaining videos. That being said I'd like to point out that I have tried the cheaper alternatives for meteorites and they don't perform as good on the skin than the meteorites from Guerlain do. Guerlain face products also tend not to swatch well on the hand and yet they perform well when actually applied on the face. I wear my makeup on my face not swatched on my hand so I tend to care more about the way makeup performs on my face than how it swatches. Sometimes swatches give a good idea how products will perform and sometimes not: for more concentrated color payoff products, such as eyeshadow and lipstick, swatches usually give a good indication of the performance but it's my experience that for face products such as foundations, powders, blushes etc. you just have to try it out as everyone has different skin types (pH, moisture levels) and needs.
I think that part of the functionality of meteorites is that they are finely milled (granted I only own the pearl version, not the pressed one so I can only talk about that) so when pressed with alcohol of course the powder particle size doesn't perform as good as before. Even when brands use less expensive ingredients (and I think it is extremely important to point that out and I am grateful that you do that in your videos) the processing will affect how those ingredients perform (smaller particle size, emollients used etc.) on the face so sometimes you will get a product that performs better when proper process steps are taken.
Of course I would like that the meteorites would reformulate to include say silk particles but I still like the product as it is and will continue to re-buy it. The pretty packaging is a part of the allure but the product is excellent as well. As I stated previously I have tried the cheaper versions of meteorites because I actually wanted to refill the meteorites packaging with them but they don't perform as well on my extremely dry skin.
I have enjoyed the fact that you guys weigh the products. It didn't cross my mind that brands might sometimes cheat some products from the customer. You could get a more accurate number of the actual product if you did repeat weighings, say 3-5 times, and then calculate the average.
Love Kats lip color in the last shot!!
I love these videos!! Please never stop ❤
I LOVE these videos!!!!
I use and love these and this makes me so sad 😂😂😂
Also- the pressed version is terrible from what i've heard.
I'm obsessed with these videos!
Thank you SO much! I was almost going to get this... almost fell for the hype yet again. Love your 'experiment' - and pointing out to me just what the cheap ingredients really are!
I love this series! Yay for breaking stuff!
Thanks for this video. I've always wanted one of these but that's definitely changed now knowing the real contents of it!
Awwww, and I really wanted these too! Lol. But this video did make me want them a lot less. Btw, this is the first video I've watched from your channel where I see both of y'all, and you're both SO PRETTY OH MY GOD
Thank you Ladies. I’ve always looked at the product as being the “ most exclusive, chic, luxurious & sexy” and on my bucket list as the ultimate purchase ...until today. I realize I just got sucked into the marketing & packaging. Lesson learned 👍
Looove these videos! 👌
You both are doing an Amazing job! I am really impress!! Love it!
Bravo girls. Thank you. I will never again waste my money on Guerlain Meteorites.
😘
Love your videos ❤️💛💚💙💜
this WAS on my wishlist. thanks for saving me the $$$. love your videos!
I love these videos. can't wait for the next one.
I honestly love Guerlain's Meteorites and the violet smell. Guerlain's formulas are awesome and I look even more stunning when I use Guerlain as compared to many other brands. They do have their own labs where they constantly conduct research to improve their formulas and always challenge the status quo. People may have different opinions but I honestly advise people to try the products at a counter and ask for samples. You can also find the ingredient lists online, on the packages or via contacting the company.
it looks like the synthetic krabby patty
Oh man this was so interesting 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻! Thanku for the service ladies 😂
If anyone wants a decent if not probably better dupe to this. A great brand to check out is physicians formula. It's much cheaper and the their talc free line doesn't have corn starch either. Their coloring correcting powder is supposed to be fantastic.
This is awesome, it came up on my recommended. Definitely subbed.
Wow this was awesome. Had great time watching this 👍🏼
Maybe you could seperate the little balls by color, so you actually get a color correcting effect :)
Thank goodness for you two
Your channel quickly become one of my favourite, I binge watched almost all of your videos! Keep up the good work ladies! Guerlain perles are kind of a scam, the only thing I adore of them is the violet scent, to me is soo good! :-)
Super helpful video! Thank you!
Can you destroy affordable makeups? Like maybelline ,Loreal ,revlon?
So its fancy Oobleck!!!! 😂😂😂
