This video is crammed and I still missed some details, sigh! So: The red cushion now has 30 shades. I accidentally used the previous shade range picture (20), now the deepest shade is 55N (!) 30 shades of a cushion - it’s remarkable!! I cut out other comparisons of the milk toner, but most were more “hydrating and a bit moisturizing” vs “some hydrating and heavier moisturizing.” The exception was the Thank You Farmer, which is surprisingly similar to the milk skin light version (imagine a lightweight moisturizer smooshed into water lol). I cut this out for time and because I’m considering doing a video where we do side-by-sides of multiple requests. I feel like that would be soooo fun. And finally: I did buy the new cleansing balm from stylevana so. You know. Will review it in 2 months hahaha ABIB will be our June brand of the month! Happy final hours of May 🥰

TirTir feels like a bait and switch brand. They are (to my knowledge) the first Korean makeup brand to purposefully cater to a wide range of skin tones and after the disaster that happened with Youthforia it is so nice to see a brand do foundation colors correctly. I love that they are supporting MissDarcie who is a woman of color and deserves nice gifts. Mikayla is just another random influencer who does makeup. She doesn’t represent anything other than lying about mascara so it is disappointing that TirTir gave her such an expensive gift. Stay safe and healthy everyone!

When it comes to the bag, my first thought was about korean culture. One of best friends is korean and when she came to visit me, she got gifts for her family and the monotary value was the most important aspect. The gift needed to be a recognized luxery brand. It was weird as an american who grew up on the phrase "its the thought that counts" but thats just culture. I really think the birkin controversy is just a big cultural misunderstanding (they they hopefully learned from)

I appreciate you offering the perspective on luxury goods and culture. I hadn't thought of it like that. As a fellow millennial, I know that I will never have luxury goods and I'm fine with that - the idea of walking around with a purse that costs thousands while children are hungry feels so, so gross to me. I was quite grumpy about the Birkin but I hadn't thought of it as a reflection of the differences in culture. That helps it make more sense. I still think there are better influencers they could have given it to. I don't know why Mikayla still has so many followers when everything from her accent to her reviews are demonstrably lies. Plus she uses filters on all her reviews, including for skin care and makeup, so even if she were being honest, the reviews wouldn't be that helpful. I don't use tiktok much but I block anyone who comes up talking about makeup or skincare with an obvious filter on.

Fellow millennial 🤚 the ultimate frustrated generation as it seems. We're even more frustrated now witnessing the choices out governments are making while a whole generation is struggling. These are indeed luxury items that we can still live without. So both the pricetag and the brand values are important to me if I'm gonna swipe my card. The reason I very decisively switched to Asian skincare is my ever growing boycott list. I discovered that even what used to be an up and coming small brand was eventually bought by the bigwigs of the industry. So I flipped the table and switched completely. I'm taking the trial and error route again (not that much error thanx to you❤), but I'd rather that than betray my humanity & values, at least consciously.

Never before has a product sat so nicely on my skin, with just the right amount of natural finish and good longevity. It's clever of them to offer different options for different skin types and preferences. Thanks for the review!

A few notes on some of the side elements discussing the brand. First this brand isn't commonly seen in cosmetics stores in Seoul. Having recently been there I saw no stores I could find aside from something I saw on Google maps in Gangnam that didn't appear to exist in person. I saw tons of cosmetics stores, but only 1-2 had TirTir products and it was a very trimmed down selection smaller than what I've seen here other than the cushion that I saw in a few places. In Japan I actually saw a pop-up, but it was closed for a private event (possibly exclusive). As far as the culture, I can't speak that much from a one day visit, but the marketing in S. Korea seemed far more focused on unattainable perfection. I saw a picture of a shirtless photoshopped guy with 8-pack abs to sell glasses (not sunglasses, the ones to help you actually see). The luxury culture seems baked in, but only to a specific subset of the population, and there are entire markets devoted to "luxury" goods that are really just fakes for $20-40. Having also seen Japan that actually feels like it has a stronger luxury brand culture, I just feel its less in your face than the brand focus portions of Seoul that can almost be equated to portions of LA.

I think I expected more from Tirtir's skincare overall. I tried a sample set and found the Ceramic Cream to have a strong licorice scent (from the anise fruit extract) which really surprised me. The texture of the cream is so gorgeous though, I really wanted to use it. The milk toner is nice but I feel that About Me has a better moisturizing toner, the Rice Makgeolli one. I think Soko Glam carries it. As for the Birkin drama, I haven't completely written the brand off nor do I have plans to purchase the brand again. I'm in a "wait and see" holding pattern.

I had put some tirtir red cushion foundation on the inside of my arm against bare skin and no oil glands there and noticed all of them darkened a couple of shades by next day. So i do believe that formula oxidizes but I also think what you said is true that the degree of oxidation may be related to individual skin (could be oil/ph or products applied to it). Maybe I should try to tirtir cushion with their primer base, since at least that should work better.

But a lot of korean brands gift things to kpop stars, etc, so I was missing the so what factor about this birkin. Seems short-sighted to bash a brand thanking an influencer who helped them given how much brands budget for advertising and let's be honest, you can't believe everything you see in an ad or influencer's tiktok.

i know as a westerner it sounds weird for a brands mission to be merging science and nature (haven't we heard it a million times before from western brands who legitimately don't even try to live up to the statement - see insert essential plant oild at bottom of ingredients list) so i definitely get it sounds odd. however if you look at it through the lens of Korean culture and how Koreans developed their skin care, their influences etc, i think it does make sense. Koreans are really big on Hanbang skin care, which is skincare methods and formulas derived straight from ingredients found in nature (mugwort and centella are two pretty big ones and popular atm) - a brand that does this really well and that has really had a chance to solidify it's identity with that is BOJ. but if you look at most popular Korean skincare brands, they are inspired by the same history and have similar approaches to using the power of ingredients derived from natural sources. i think maybe tirtir is a bit more hesitant to really embrace the Korean terminology and history too strongly here in-case it alienates their international customer base (and remember they did start out with make up and that seems to be their main focus) so they went with a purpose statement that was a bit more appealing or easier for a wide range of cultures and people to grasp but they also lost a little bit of what makes K skincare special in the first place by doing that. i think they really could do awesome things with their skincare products if they follow a little more in BOJ's footsteps and really embrace their Korean identity in and international capacity a bit more.

Even though it's great that tirtir offers a huge shade range, but some of the shade just seems way off. For example, I have used at least 6 different korean brands of the cushion foundation of shade 23W. Though the undertone all differs slightly between the brand, but I find tirtir to be way off (very orange, and the shade one shade up/down also off). In addition, their formula seems to oxidize ALOT more than the others (even with primer). As amazing as their coverage & longevity is, i am not that impressed.

From my point of view, the Tir tir brand is more designed to prepare the skin for makeup and not to solve many skin problems and I think that the toner, serum and cream can be included in a routine that lacks hydration. , for example if the skin dries out due to retinoids and you need to replace lipids that are missing in the skin, etc. Regarding all controversies in general, people have to understand that all brands, whether North American, Korean, Japanese or from all countries, know that the strategy of positioning themselves in the market is through social media platforms and Nobody should be surprised, it is what the population consumes the most and it is sold through these platforms, the smartest thing you can do as a consumer is read independent reviews of the different retailers and read the experiences of people who have actually bought the products with their money. Besides, I must admit that I prefer to have lived a childhood without social networks playing in the square in front of my house with my friends and not to have been a consumer of social networks since I was a child. Thanks Alice, I really appreciate all your effort and honest insights. A hug and I hope you are well and have a great weekend 😘

Heck, it’s only recently that there ARE laws around disclosing ads online!! The OG influencers did all kinds of non-disclosed ads without any consequences (and I admit to buying some of the garbage they promoted as a young person lol; I just had no idea!!) It feels like such a pivotal point in human existence.

Even though MissDarcei's video did better. I also don't have TikTok so I haven't seen the videos and the creators reactions but hearing they value a white creator more doesn't sit right with me.

I sincerely doubt that they were the first or the last brand to give expensive gifts. I guarantee many clothing and jewelry and tech companies have given more expensive gifts to any number of people. I guess my point is, if we are actually honest about and boycott every company that has ever done anything shady, we will most likely be naked in an empty room.

this is a dumb take. there are absolutely ethical options out there. people like you prefer to throw up their hands and not try bc it takes time and effort.

Does the cushion foundation oxidize? I'm your skin tone but I lean olive so I don't wanna look yellow or pink 😢

I feel like I can’t answer that simply, because my experience was: “sometimes”(!) I did read that they claim their newest shade extension doesn’t have this problem. Hopefully that is true as…I mean it’s kind of a big problem that a foundation works sometimes, and turns mustard color at other times!? Lol

I just bought that red cushion foundation. I’m not thrilled with it. And I got a color that’s a little too light. French Vanilla. I am not done with your video. Interested to see your opinion on this foundation. If you tried it and what shade!
@moniquelindholm1381

Oh. You definitely got another shade! I actually was hoping mine would oxidize as it was too light but it didn’t! The quest for the perfect foundation continues for me. I do really like the about face light olive. I just wish it had more coverage. Sigh.

The about face is so hard to beat!! Have you had success layering it for more coverage? Or perhaps trying a concealer with it as needed? Most recently, I’ve been using the fenty hydrating concealer in 175w (it’s a warm olive) as a spot concealer, then following with foundation. Covers what I want without a completely full coverage look. And it works with the about face quite nicely! I do use a different concealer under my eyes tho. Hope that helps!

As a licensed esthetician and award winning makeup artist who also formulated different products over many years in the industry. You have a beautiful face but You are starting out with too much oily grease on your face. Why? Oil and high shine like that do not equal youth and natural looking. It seems this is your look on all your videos. You are beautiful but the oily shine is distracting. I can't get behind that under makeup. At night yes! But definitely no under makeup It also leads to people over powdering and looking older and craggy This can also lead to foundation slipping off your skin. Also can lead to product roll up...and development into other colors. Moisture is one thing and grease is another. As for the birkin bags for influencers... I don't care. They are advertising for the product they made famous so why not get a perk..that doesn't mean the influencer should lie about it. They need to keep their integrity. Either way. I don't follow influencers. I still make up my own mind. I try so many products...if they work...I will buy it. As long as there is no animal or human cruelty or carcinogenic or harmful ingredients...I am good Make up your own mind. Don't follow what people say.

While I ultimately don’t agree with the brand’s approach, I appreciate you bringing up the cultural aspect we as an international audience might be lacking. In many Asian cultures, *especially* in South Korea, gift-gifting is VERY important and also VERY common. Changing of the seasons, I think your hair is cool, you stayed 10 minutes after school to help my kid with their homework-any excuse to give a gift, no matter how big or small, they will find one (I experienced it firsthand when I lived there 😅). And exchanging luxury goods is common practice. Many department stores carry special luxury brand sets (perfume, skincare, cosmetics) almost year round that are meant to given as gifts, often to a higher up in your company, business partners, or even the relatives or your spouse/partner to show appreciation. They take their gifts very seriously and will take great care not to give something too small or cheap that would bring shame. So in the cultural context, what they did was very innocent and well-intentioned. To them it was likely a genuine token of gratitude for being such big champions of the brand, and wanting to share that success with them. But when the exchange crosses borders.. it gets complicated.. and it’s not a good look 😕

Thank you for sharing! That really is such a big cultural difference (goodness it would be so strange to bring my boss a random gift? Tbh it would probably be seen very negatively, ie “sucking up” lol) And yep, sure enough, bringing that idea to a global scale, and making it shady influencers instead…mm. It doesn’t work. I certainly understand why many are turned off by the brand!

You comparing the toners had me thinking of a recent Dr. Idriss short on over moisturizing where she was ranting about milky toners, milky serums, milky cleansers, etc. I don't have tik tok either so I will sometimes catch wind of things from channels like yours (or a something in the comments) and it can make you a little disappointed with humanity, lol.

Hello Alice 😃 I still haven't cracked open my TirTir Milk Skin Toner - that one is next and really looking forward to it. I have added a few more products to try on my list from this line - just so much to try (so overwhelming sometimes). I also wanted to let you know that my last order from YesStyle only took 2 weeks (which I thought was good - but those products were in stock). My next order has some products that have a 21 day ship date - so I know I will be waiting. No problem - I really don't mind waiting for products). I am starting to become somewhat of a YesStyle groupie ❤ - place an order and start up a new cart. I don't have a TikTok account - I have no idea who these people are, didn't hear about the Birkin gift - I must say that this extravagant gift does not sit well with me - there is just so much wrong with our world right now. I don't really want to make any more comments about what is happening in our world, because I would be here forever typing. Do I need skincare? Yes, I believe I do - and I definitely need sunscreen. Have a lovely weekend - Cheers looking forward to the ABIB review - hope that the eye gels are on the list to try. 🌸💮🌸
