  1. Hi Rowena,
    as producer of organic cosmetics, i loved your remarks. in all cases, no exceptions, you're right. however, from your past experience, you know very well that consumers nowadays need to be impressed, shocked, surprised. otherwise no living soul will buy the stuff the industry pushes down their throat with big, flashy ads.
    if you just put a plain and simple product (otherwise good) in a non-flashy, washed-out packaging with no sensational claims on it... you know very well it won't sell.
    loved the bitching but give us positive and constructive tips on how a producer could pimp-up its claims and ads so they don't look bullshit.
    you have to admit one thing: the more ridiculous the ad, the better it sells.
    unless the client's dead or over 80, honesty and cosmetics have almost nothing to do with each other (free translation = no sales).

    1. Hi Anonymous! Oh I wish you would post non-anonymously, as i really give due respect to the opinions of the brave, however controversial your position is, i would love you (even the more)for it.

      But thank you for the appreciation and acknowledgment.

      Truth, a little self deprecation and creativity (not the dishonest kind), so rare in this industry will be much valued and judging from the response even of the few here, will be rewarded.

      But i do believe that producers have to have their financial ambitions in check. What lines are brands ready to cross just for the sake of sales? And just because everybody else is doing it is a reason to engage in it yourself.

      On tips to producers, this blog is in the service of consumers not producers as producers have all the means on their side to preach their word. I take the side of consumers.

      I do collaborate with those who really intend to make a difference out there- but is anybody out there who has the balls and creativity really? I would be the happiest to find one.

  6. Hi Rowena!

    I grew up being a tomboy with makeup being the last on my priority list. But then puberty came as well as a reality check that makeup does wonders to my average face. I recently got hired to be work as a Cosmetician ( I had no beauty school or anything like that. I'm just good listener and manipulator). I'm nervous as fcuk because I know close to nothing when it comes to makeup. (I still use my fingers to apply 99% of my makeup)

    Now that I've stepped in the front lines of the beauty industry, I got curious. I started looking for what careers I can move up to in the beauty industry, but everything Google gives me are being makeup-artists, a specialist in nail/hair care, and etc. Do you think you might be able to write a blog about all the career options out there in the beauty industry? Especially for those whose already strapped in a 40k student loan and really can't afford additional schooling to start this career field. I stumbled to your blog a few days ago when I was looking for career options, so if you already posted an article about the different careers, I apologize for being an annoyance!

    Cheerssssss
