Am I alone in this?

So the more I learn about my skin the more I understand what products are right for me. It’s important to understand that what works for one person, or is easily accessible may not the the one for you. I’m not one to succumb to marketing tricks or popular brands, but one brand I see everywherrreeee is The Inkey List but I’ve still not tried anything from the brand! Am I the only one? Surely there must be more of us who haven’t tried anything yet? For those of you who have tried it, feel free to drop me your recommendations.

oh no you're not the only one. i think it's natural for everyone to once in a while fall for marketing tricks, especially beginners who obviously go for the more visible/shared/talked about brands. BUT INDEED, once you know your skin and your needs, marketing and popularity won't have any effect on you. A lot of brands catch my attention but then when i dig just a little bit, it's a no-no, for different reasons. The Inkey List, Glow Recipe, Abib (yes sadly😭), CeraVe, Drunk Elephant...no thanks! Also, i usually try to stay away from skincare trends because it's a bit toxic and enables dysmorphophobia (ie that terrible "glass skin" trend that i will never stop to despise)

Agreed, trendy skincare hacks and products just pass by but those products and brands that are well formulated stand them test of time.

I haven't tried it too. I once fell for the marketing tricks of a local brand😅 many influencers actually promote their products and it made my skin extremely dry and irritated😔. Not only that, even my mom believes that expensive skincare like high-end brand are always better without knowing anything and believing the sales man/woman said

Same, people from the country where I’m from still buy Lancôme and Estée Lauder with the belief that those brands are the best in the market

I’m on the same boat with you, but I love some products from the inkey list. I’ve been repeating their niacinamide serum which contains niacinamide more than recommended but the texture is good and the price can’t be complained (inexpensive in my opinion) their salicylic acid cleanser is great for using 2-3times/ week. also their peptide moisturizer should get more attention IMO. having said that, I can’t say I am completely in love with the brand. some of their items were nah… for me.

I haven’t tried anything from them either. But for myself, more than the marketing about the Inkey List its the price and how easy are to get what makes them desirable. And for this reasons, Im sure in a point I will try them.
