Re: Scandalous Cosmetics?

I wonder how Miss Priscilla feels about being exposed the way she did. I still can't believe how she claimed to have come up with oh-so-original line from scratch. LMAO! I have to send love the Specktra and YouTube detectives because you all seriously blew it up, in a good way. =D

Re: Scandalous Cosmetics?

Please dont get me wrong.. but im really disappointed. I to be honest was never really into Scandalous..and i am not a die hard MAC fan, but everytime i went near one of the carts in the mall, i was really turned off.. I mean yes its pigmented but I thought being a new (at least i thought) brand that it would be one of those things where they were starting from the ground up and they put alot into (not just finding and teaching people how to do good makeup).. well long story short and i may be ........................ but i was disappointed when i found out they just buy it wholesale from a manufacturer (the same that alot of other small ''new'' businesses are buying them from and just slap a label on it and its their brand new totally different from the others makeup line....idk... maybe its just me and yeah its cheaper than mac and maybe im just venting because i found out another ''new'' makeup artist that started her own company buys from the same place and she made her line sound like it was actually her own and not a label... (currently regretting my latest cosmetic purchase)

Hmmm....your primer needs a primer? WTF? Does she realize how ridiculous that is?

The Lady Burd link needs to be removed we don't sell to the public what so ever only to business.We are a manufacture but we don't sell to the public we sell in massive amounts.So this link needs to be removed at once or further actions will be taken.I will contact You Tube I was given a number of people doing this and I will get to it thanks.

The owner is on here I think. I think it's funny how she had a video using Scandalous now she's a competitor using the same supplier. Tee hee.

Re: Scandalous Cosmetics?

Good news, ladies and gents. My cat has decided to start his own line! He says that his primer doesn't crease. You don't even have to prime his primer with UDPP!

Here's his first promo pic:

I told him he should go with a more supportive message, but he insists on complete creative control.

P to the S : Watch for his You Tube channel in the near future. He does great tuts.

Re: Scandalous Cosmetics?

macnoob85, it's great that you aren't backing down. That message was pathetic. It had poor grammer and not to mention that there is no wrong doing in pointing out a manufacturer. If Lady Bird wanted to be this secret private supplier, they wouldn't have a freaking website. Something about this looks very shady. I reckon that it could be someone who is a distributor of their cosmetics not liking the fact that the supplier has become public knowledge. Posing as someone you are not and representing another company... now that sounds illegal. I think Lady Burd should be aware that someone is posing as "Paul Fuerguson" using crappy grammar. So is Lady Burd run by a bunch of uneducated bumpkins? I smell lawsuit! Duhrama!

Re: Scandalous Cosmetics?

Where are all the people who were supporting Scandalous so strongly now?

I am even more shocked now at how aggressive (and even arrogant) their marketing was when it turns out to be just another private label on an easily available line (based on how many people are selling the same lines with their own private label).

I thought at least based on the tactics that Scandalous was a true start-up makeup company or at least I had given them the benefit of the doubt on that and not just reselling someone else's products.

Re: Scandalous Cosmetics?

Sweet baby Jesus! :spec ktrarocks:

I LOVE you ladies! And while I am workin' the flattery I would like to introduce you to MY exclusive new line...

I-Sell-This-Shiz-so-I-Can-Buy-More-MAC Cosmetics*

We are a small private line similar to many others. Very similar. We do not offer unique shades or exclusive products. We DO, however, use plenty of MAC in our You Tube tutorials (Thanks to your generous patronage!). You might be asking yourself, "Doesn't that seem shady perhaps even misleading?" How right, dear potential customer, you are! Our customers are always right and you will not find any statement from us claiming otherwise. In fact our base needs a base, our shadows need pre-staining for max color payoff, and our supplier's lawyer needs both legal advice and a working spell-checking feature for his computer. Please excuse these "growing pains" while our company is expanding at an unprecedented pace in a few mall kiosks and a dozen or so auctions on eBay. While our products are definitely not ours, your money will be soon enough and that makes you our top priority!

*Note: Prices may vary. In fact they will most assuredly vary, as our products are only available for purchase at auctions. Some restrictions may apply, namely, you may only be able to wear one of our shadows due to our OUTRAGEOUS pigmentation they may permanently stain your lids. We look at that as a gift-with-purchase. Enjoy!

Re: Scandalous Cosmetics?

P.S. I must say that the above post is just a joke AND is in no way meant to be taken seriously as a relevant criticism. Honestly, I would be really flattered if my tutorials were noticed enough that someone wanted me to have my own line of cosmetics. I think it would be hard to resist and we don't even know if they are told their same products are sold by other lines. I would not have known without some digging and you guys. Really the major thing these lines have in common, is not the product, but the exceptional talent being used to showcase them. I know when I saw these tutorials I went egg roll and wanted ALL the products. But that's the catch, its the application of the product and not the actual product that is unique and outstanding. I just wanted to give these artists a huge shout out because, save the whole product origin debate, I have learned so much about color combos and blending that its pushed me to practice new techniques. I could not be more interested in their tutorials no matter what brand/line/etc. they are using.

Regretfully many many cosmetic lines are produced by a few manufacturers who "case" the different products for different names -- you would be surprised. Makeup is an art to many, but a huge business to all

I have a strong feeling this company is going to grow.

Look what I found:



OUCH!

As much as I love MAC, I'm open for any competition. Hey, if it's better, why not.
I heard the same of several brands, including NYX when they came out marketing.. It is very hard to beat a name brand which has a cult following. Don't know what their financial backing is, but remember MAC's mom is Estee Lauder.. so the pockets are quite deep, regardless of the recession

Re: Scandalous Cosmetics?

I just finished watching makeupartistamateur's review on make up bases and it upsets me because I feel like she's deceiving a lot of her viewers. I also came across other people's comment's about how the base creases and in the video she usually compares the eyeshadow's brightness. Obviously their base is going to have a brighter result if it's white. I've also read in another comment [in a review video from months ago] where she responded to a viewer saying she was going to do another video comparing the base to mac's white chromaline and she just posted a new review video today with the same bases as the previous video.
She's a very talented artist, which is why I have subscribed to her channel in the first place but I'm just so turned off by her pushing her products on her viewers who are probably unaware of what is really going on. It's almost like watching an infomercial. I understand that it's life and everyone needs to make a living but it bothers me that people would use their talents to deceive other people. Viewers probably watch these video's and probably get excited thinking there's a new, could be HG item they could try, when really it's not the product but the artist themselve's that are good and they know it and use it to their advantage.
This is just my opinion.

Re: Scandalous Cosmetics?

I just purchased their eyeshadow base on Saturday and it arrived yesterday. I will give it a go and see how the "eyeshadow magnet" lives up to its name. So, I will be posting pictures of it and you guys can see for yourselves.
Also, I saw that Priscilla does tutorials on youtube, like me, I saw she uses a white shadow, anyone know where I can get a good eyeshadow. I have MAC Gesso, Ben Nye's, NYX, smashbox, and a costal scents, I'm not getting a good payoff and texture from it.

I have to laugh at the fact that she uploaded the same exact video again, KNOWING that it was shady and unfair. I still stand 100% by my original post about Scandalous Cosmetics. It's ridiculous.

Re: Scandalous Cosmetics?

^^ so true. Lmao.

O, and in case anyone is wondering about the paint wheels... I got mine in yesterday. They are definitely super glittery but pretty fun. I would honestly never do an entire eye look using just a paint wheel due to all that glitter. I'm going to use them on someone today and see if the glitter just gets every damn where.


I'll try and post swatches a little later if anyone is interested b/c this glitter really shows up.
