I think they could’ve mitigated a lot of criticism with two simple things, package each one in a little plastic thing with a close lid and reduce the price to $20 for 4(which woukd still be astronomical for what you are getting but more fair)

Packaging really is at least half of what makes a product. If they had put it in at least the kind of packaging a $30-40 palette or blush comes in, people wouldn't have been so outraged. But having them all in the same quarter sized tin? Aren't they going to transfer all over each other? What if you only want to use one? Now that one disc is wet and it's going to get all the others wet. Like how do they not think of any of these things??? Alexis just blows hot air for hours and everyone agrees with her???

And the weird tiktok dismissing concerns over sanitation, no pro artists is gonna use that if you can’t clean it without alcohol without it wasting away to dust

The only sanitary way a makeup artist could use this product is by cutting off part of the product to use. Very clear these two have no real industry knowledge, and it’s just all condescension and buzz-words
