Best Rated Beauty Tools | Cheap vs Expensive - YouTube
Channel: Milabu
[10]
- Today, it's all about the
best rated beauty tools,
[14]
cheap versus expensive edition.
[16]
Let's start first with dermaplaning tools.
[19]
We have one-to-one.
[21]
This one right here is by StackedSkincare,
[23]
$75 for this right here,
[27]
versus the, what is this,
the Tinkle, 80 cents.
[32]
This is reusable, the StackedSkincare,
[35]
they're saying use it up to once a week,
[36]
replace once a month.
[38]
And then, you replace these little blades.
[42]
I believe three of them, $22,
[44]
very expensive.
[Andrey] - Wow, Very expensive.
[46]
- And then these right here, Tinkle,
[47]
they come in a pack of
six for, they're $4.90.
[51]
So if you divide that, they
are around 80 cents per blade.
[56]
Let's see if there's actually
a huge difference or not.
[63]
Woah...
[65]
Sounds like a legit, just
a straight edge razor.
[69]
Already sounds so
different 'cause this blade
[73]
is very different
comparison to the Tinkle.
[78]
Looks and sounds very intimidating.
[80]
I'm gonna be honest, just
from the first impression,
[83]
you get way closer to
your face with this blade.
[87]
Oh man. Whoa. That's
smooth. That is smooth.
[91]
Now let's go over to the Tinkle side
[94]
'cause I kind of want to
do one-to-one right away
[96]
and you can see the peach
fuzz right there.
[101]
You can definitely see
the peach fuzz coming off.
[105]
You definitely have to
be careful, I would say.
[108]
This one feels a lot more rough
[110]
just because of those ridges.
[111]
It's literally like a bread knife
[112]
versus a straight edge razor.
[115]
But it does a pretty good job, I will say.
[117]
I feel like I have to go
back a little bit more
[119]
with this one versus the StackedSkincare
[122]
'cause it's so smooth.
[123]
I just wanna feel the difference.
[128]
They both feel very smooth.
[129]
This one feels a little more irritated.
[131]
- The skin?
- The Tinkle. Yeah.
[133]
Just because you can feel
the little serrated edges.
[136]
Interesting. Okay.
[138]
Let's continue.
[147]
Oh, did you guys see that fall?
[155]
All right. So this is what the face
[156]
is looking like after dermaplaning.
[159]
I think it looks pretty
good on both sides.
[161]
You can see a little bit
of inflammation right here.
[163]
I nicked myself using the Tinkle.
[166]
I feel like my cheeks look a
little more irritated
[168]
on the left side, my cheek,
versus on the right side.
[171]
It just looks a little more even.
[173]
Like this one, you could see
it's a little bit more red.
[175]
This is just so expensive.
[177]
$75, then an extra 24 just for the blades,
[180]
We were saying they should've
[183]
at least had three to four extra blades
[185]
with the $75 purchase.
[187]
I feel like usually,
[188]
if you're purchasing
something replaceable,
[191]
there's at least one
or two extra, you know,
[193]
like even when you're
buying razors for yourself,
[195]
it comes with two to three free razors
[198]
on top of your handle that
you're paying for, essentially.
[202]
So I don't like the price for
this. I do like how it works.
[205]
Very expensive. Still gets the job done.
[208]
You just gotta be a little more careful.
[210]
All right. We're next down to tweezers.
[212]
These are essential, everyday,
weekly, monthly staple items
[217]
that I always keep right here.
[219]
So one brand that I really
enjoy is Tweezerman.
[221]
This is the one I have on
hand. I can't live without it.
[224]
It's my little bad boy.
[226]
These right here, this Tweezerman,
[228]
these are the ultra precision tips.
[231]
$35, really highly
rated, versus the Revlon,
[235]
is just their expert tweezer
with a slant tip, 4.99.
[239]
Tweezerman, it's a little more slim,
[242]
it's a little more thin.
It's a little more slim.
[245]
They both look very even, in
terms of how thick they are.
[250]
I'm just excited to see
[251]
if there's gonna be a huge difference.
[253]
Is it gonna get those really
stubborn, like blonde hairs,
[257]
the stubborn hairs that I can't get out.
[259]
Let's just try it. Let's go for it.
[261]
Keeping to the right side with
the expensive versus cheap.
[267]
Okay. Got one.
[272]
Nope, two.
[277]
Three.
[302]
All right. So for tweezers,
what do we look for?
[304]
Something that's not as painful
[306]
that actually grabs most of the hairs.
[308]
Obviously, it's not gonna
grab the tiniest little hairs.
[312]
Tweezers, that's not
what they're gonna do.
[313]
You have to get a wax.
[315]
I will say, the Tweezerman,
[316]
it wasn't as painful to remove
the hairs as the Revlon,
[320]
but they both did a very similar job.
[324]
And if you're just gonna pick between one,
[326]
I would go for the Revlon.
[327]
I think Tweezerman has better options.
[329]
For example, like I showed you guys,
[331]
my little mini ones, $15.
[333]
They're great, they do a phenomenal job
[335]
and they do better than
the Revlon in my opinion,
[337]
because they are so much smaller.
[338]
and they're a little slimmer.
[340]
Therefore, you can get
those really tiny hairs
[341]
and you can be more precise
with something like this.
[344]
But Revlon, great tool.
It gets the job done.
[348]
Yes, you do have to go a couple
of times over certain hairs
[351]
to really make sure you get it out.
[352]
But at the end of the
day, it gets the job done.
[354]
And it's only 4.99.
[356]
We have the beauty sponge.
[358]
We have the OG beauty blender, $20,
[361]
versus this right here,
it comes in a pack of 10,
[364]
multiple different colors, 6.99.
[367]
So each, 70 cents.
[369]
$20 versus 70 cents, beauty sponge.
[373]
This right here, with the
difference, you can see the size.
[375]
They're both damp.
[377]
You can see how much smaller
the beauty blender is
[379]
to the beauty sponge from Amazon.
[381]
The beauty sponge, the beauty blender,
[383]
it's very airy. It's very bouncy.
[386]
It's very light and it's
more perforated versus,
[389]
this one is very dense. It's
heavier. It's not as bouncy.
[393]
So we'll see which one does a better job.
[397]
Let's go for it.
[397]
Let's apply my Fenty Beauty, my Eaze Drop.
[400]
Okay. We'll start first
with the right side,
[403]
which is the beauty blender.
[405]
We'll see how much coverage we will get
[406]
and how it spreads the product.
[412]
Again, this is just,
it's a bouncy product.
[415]
It definitely soaks up the product
[417]
because it is a very perforated sponge,
[421]
but it blends in really nicely,
very fast, very seamlessly.
[425]
You don't really have to try too hard.
[427]
All right. That's on. Very easy to use.
[430]
It gave me a solid coverage.
[432]
Nice, light coverage.
[434]
Let's go on with the Amazon sponge.
[437]
I'm trying to take similar amount
[438]
and we're gonna take the more flat side.
[441]
I like how big it is. (laughs)
[446]
- [Andrey] You can see right
away, it's not as flawless.
[448]
- Yeah.
[450]
It definitely kind of
picks up the product,
[453]
look at the difference, on both sides.
[455]
You can see where it kind of picks it up
[457]
and it stays there versus
the beauty blender.
[460]
It kind of distributes
the product a little more,
[462]
even though, you can see
where it eats the product up.
[465]
I feel like this one eats up a lot more product,
[467]
which is fascinating because
it's so much more dense
[470]
But I do like how it feels on the skin.
[472]
It's a very soft, it's still
very bouncy.
[475]
I think these are great.
[477]
It's just, you have to use
a little bit more product
[479]
than you would with the beauty blender.
[481]
Okay. So I personally see a difference
[483]
from one side to the other with the finish
[485]
and the coverage and whatever else.
[487]
So on the right side, it
honestly looks very even
[489]
from the forehead to
the cheeks, to the jaw.
[492]
Yes, there's still redness
because this product right here
[495]
is not a super full coverage,
[496]
it's not even a medium coverage.
[497]
It's a very light coverage product.
[500]
Like I'm looking at the cheeks right here
[501]
versus this side, everything just looks
[503]
a little more even versus this.
[505]
There's a little bit of
more coverage right here.
[508]
A little less coverage right here,
[510]
kind of inconsistent with the coverage.
[512]
Let's try concealer now.
[514]
I'm just using my NARS Radiant Creamy,
[517]
go over some of these spots
[520]
and we'll see how it's gonna blend out.
[523]
First go in with the beauty blender,
[524]
I like that with the beauty blender,
[525]
it doesn't feel wet when it's damp.
[529]
Other sponges, you can still
feel like it's super wet
[532]
and you can't get rid of that wetness
[536]
because they are so dense.
[537]
You can see right here,
very easy to blend.
[540]
It still gives you good coverage,
[542]
but it helps to kind of
stretch the product out.
[545]
And it's really nice.
[547]
The sponge right here, this shape,
[549]
because you can get into your
inner corner really easily.
[552]
It's not big and it's not too small.
[555]
Let's go with this one right here.
[556]
We're gonna use the pointy
side. Still feels really nice.
[561]
You can see right here.
[562]
I kind of have to dab a little bit more.
[564]
It's not spreading the product as evenly
[567]
and as fast as the beauty
blender, you can see right there.
[570]
It's just you know... work it a little bit more.
[573]
This sponge is actually really, really nice.
[575]
It's really soft. It's really bouncy.
[577]
But I will say it does eat
up a little bit more product.
[581]
Personally, I think the right
side looks a little better.
[584]
It looks more flawless, more
even, especially right here.
[588]
I feel like on this
side, you can kind of see
[589]
where some of the concealer is kind of stuck
[591]
and it doesn't wanna move,
[593]
Right in here in this area,
[595]
you can see a difference.
[597]
But again, it's very minute differences.
[599]
You know what I mean?
[600]
You can always, you can always fix it.
[602]
This does the job. It gets the job done.
[604]
It looks good. You know what I mean?
[606]
What else do you want? You know.
[608]
Eyebrow brushes.
[610]
This one right here is
well-loved. This is my original.
[614]
This is the Anastasia Beverly
Hills number 12 brush.
[618]
It is angled brush with a
spoolie on the other end.
[621]
We picked up a newer one.
[622]
We're comparing it to the Elf.
[624]
This is their eyebrow duo brush.
[626]
It's $4 and you can see
the spoolie on one end
[631]
and then you have the angled
brush on the other end.
[633]
The one thing I'm noticing right away
[635]
is the difference in the brush itself.
[638]
The angled brush, the Anastasia
is a little more slim,
[643]
but it's also a little more
stiff. That's the word, stiff.
[647]
That way you can get a
really precise brush strokes
[650]
versus the Elf, it's more
of an angled eyeliner brush
[654]
where it's not as stiff,
it's still very soft,
[658]
but it's not as stiff as the Anastasia.
[660]
But you know what? Let's try it.
[662]
Let's put those brows on
[664]
and see which one we can create
more hair-like strokes with.
[668]
And I'm using the Anastasia
medium brow powder duo.
[673]
So let's take the spoolie,
brush this through
[677]
and we'll see how precise
and how easy it is
[680]
to use a pencil like this or
brush, versus the other brush.
[693]
This brush is so fine that it
kind of just (tongue clicks)
[698]
does the job for me.
[700]
As long as I hold it in the right place,
[703]
It does a really great job,
especially if I wanna be precise
[707]
and really carve out these brows.
[713]
The spoolie seems great with the elf.
[716]
I feel like with this one
[717]
you get more of like a diffused
look, which is totally fine.
[720]
Yeah, because it's not as stiff,
[722]
it's definitely more of
like an eyeliner brush,
[726]
not more so eyebrow.
[728]
Just because it's a little more thick
[730]
and the bristles are very soft,
[733]
but it still gets the job done.
[734]
So this product right here, I will say,
[736]
you can see a huge
difference in application,
[741]
in overall usage of a product like this.
[745]
It's just so, I feel, it's
a lot more user-friendly
[748]
because the brush in
the Anastasia is so fine
[751]
and it's so precise.
[753]
Let me show you on the back of my hand.
[754]
I'll take the darkest
shade and just show you.
[762]
You can be pretty fine with this
[765]
and you have, I feel
like a little bit more control
[767]
versus on this one right here.
[774]
You see how diffused it looks?
[776]
Whereas with this one,
[777]
you can have a little bit
more hair-like strokes.
[780]
You can be a little bit more
precise with a brush like this.
[784]
It all comes down with how thin
[786]
and how stiff the bristles are.
[788]
So both of these are great brushes.
[790]
I feel like you can use
them for different things,
[793]
Personally, if you're using
like a pomade gel product,
[797]
definitely go for the Anastasia,
you have way more control.
[800]
You can do a lot more things
with a product like this
[804]
versus this one right here.
[805]
At the end day, just depends on
[807]
what kind of outcome you're looking for.
[808]
All right. Last but not
least, eyelash curlers.
[812]
There are so many of
them, but this right here
[814]
is by Hourglass, $30,
[817]
versus Wet n Wild, and
this retails for 2.99.
[823]
It's actually on sale
now for 1.90 (laughs),
[825]
crazy high reviews on both of them.
[828]
The one thing I'm noticing right away
[830]
with both eyelash curlers,
[832]
how much more open you
can get the Wet n Wild
[835]
versus the Hourglass, that's fully open.
[837]
And this is why I don't
use this one all the time.
[839]
I actually don't like this
as much as I like my other,
[843]
like Shiseido, my Surratt, my
Kevyn Aucoin eyelash curlers.
[847]
I feel like they do a better job,
[848]
but I'm really excited
to try the Wet n Wild
[850]
and see which one gets a better curl.
[852]
How close can we get it to the tips
[855]
or just the base of my lashes?
[857]
Which one is more comfortable?
[859]
Which one I feel like is not going
[862]
to take all of my eyelashes
out, you know, basically.
[866]
So let's go for it.
[867]
Taking the Hourglass and
because it is so slim,
[870]
you kind of have to curve
it down towards your eyes
[874]
and then look down, kind of get in there.
[878]
I will say, this right here,
the side, it's like poking,
[882]
do you see that right there?
[887]
- [Andrey] it did curl.
[888]
- Yes, it did. But you can see
[890]
that it didn't get to the base.
[892]
it could kind of cut them (tongue clicks)
[894]
and then it curled them.
[895]
Do you see that?
[896]
You can see the outer one,
[897]
it like curled it like
halfway on the eyelash.
[900]
Wet n Wild. You can see,
[902]
you don't have to like really do too much.
[909]
Very gentle and just start curling.
[913]
This one, it's not pinching
as hard on this side.
[921]
Same thing with the outer lash.
[924]
I feel like the Hourglass did
a little bit better of a job.
[927]
You can see where it pinch right there,
[929]
some of these lashes that they
didn't even wanna get curled,
[932]
but you can see a huge difference.
[933]
I feel like this one's a little more even
[935]
and consistent throughout
[937]
from the inner to the outer
lash versus this side,
[940]
they're a little more curled in the center
[942]
and then they're not as
curled on the outer lash.
[944]
Let's put on some mascara
[945]
and then we'll curl them one last time
[948]
when the mascara has dried.
[958]
All right. So with eyelash curlers,
[960]
I feel like it's a really
personal preference
[961]
because everybody has such
a different eye shape.
[964]
So personally for me, I
like an eyelash curler
[967]
that's not as curved.
[968]
This one right here is by Surratt Beauty.
[970]
And I really like this one
[971]
because it's not as curved
as typical eyelash curlers.
[976]
You can see right here.
[978]
You can see it's a
little bit more straight
[980]
versus the Wet n Wild. It's
definitely very curved.
[983]
So with this one,
[984]
I find that I can get really
close to the base of my lashes
[988]
and really have that consistent look.
[991]
But between these two right here,
[992]
the Hourglass and the Wet n Wild,
[994]
honestly, go for the Wet n Wild.
[996]
They do a very similar job,
[998]
but if I'm comparing them to something
[999]
like the Surratt Beauty,
[1001]
the Surratt Beauty wins, in my opinion.
[1003]
So there you guys have it.
[1005]
At the end of the day, expensive products
[1007]
are sometimes, a lot of
the times, are not better.
[1011]
A lot of these products you
saw in front of you today,
[1014]
they perform just as great
as the expensive products
[1017]
and they save you a lot
of money in the future.
[1021]
But there are some products
that do, in my opinion,
[1024]
I think they are worth every single penny
[1026]
because they are a lot more convenient.
[1030]
They do a better job.
[1031]
And overall, the quality
will last you more
[1034]
than the cheaper product.
[1036]
I love these kinds of comparison videos
[1038]
'cause you can really see one-to-one
[1039]
and really see is there
really a difference?
[1041]
I'm gonna leave it here.
[1043]
Thank you for watching,
spending time with me
[1045]
and I'll see you in
the next one very soon.
[1047]
Bye. (Blows kiss)
[1049]
Got lipstick all over my hand. (laughs)
