Re: "Fakeup".
Feb. 6th, 2018 09:24 amMykie (Glam & Gore) just posted this hella informative video about black market makeup. At first I was like girl what are you doing, don't put any of that on your face! But watch to the end. She spills the tea on this stuff and why it's not wise to even risk using it as tempting as it might be.
I remember watching an episode of "Life of Kylie" (was that the name of it?) where Kylie Jenner and her friend Jordyn went and investigated fake Kylie lip kits. The place in Mykie's video looks like where they went which is a street market in L.A. called The Santee Alley. Kylie even went on in the episode to explain why it can be bad and even dangerous to put these fakes on your skin. I think Jeffree Star even talked about fakes once having been alerted about counterfeit Androgyny palettes. These aren't even limited to street markets like this, counterfeit product is sold all the time online as well. Know what you're looking at and as far as online, don't buy anything that isn't from a legit merchant or brand.
Here's an article about the dangers of "fakeup" as well.
Just a little PSA for my fellow makeup lovers out there.
