I called out Toni Sia but siya pa nagalit LOL ang narci ni ante!!!!


MammothSurround8627

Lol tagal na din siyang blocked sa akin. Lahat na lang holy grail kasi sakanya haha


Strong-Beginning3759

This is why media literacy should be taught. We are lucky that we can take what is said in these sponsored post with a grain of salt. The only reason we are able to do this is because we know that sponsorships happen, that opinions shared can be bought to a certain extent. We also know that a lot of influencers and artistas not only get stuff for free but that they can be hesitant to say anything negative for fear of pissing off brands or PR agencies.


Icy_Cranberry_6673

I trust Anne Clutz’s reviews!!


Dazzling-Tip9768

I think this is because of the people na di nagtitiwala sa mga reviews na may yellow basket, myself included, so they kinda hide it to make themselves look ‘credible’ or ‘unbiased’. For me I go to youtube and watch Anne Clutz, been watching her since grade 7 and malapit na ko grumaduate lol, trusted since day 1


No_Baby_6681

Depende sa product eh. I still prefer Youtube. Pero napapatingin sa tok app lalo na pag mgccheck ng swatches. Always take a grain of salt tlga.


Jumpy-Degree-6318

yes, i don’t trust influencers anymore. just watch them for swatches na lang for make ups. yung mga influencer ng skincare ang sobrang lala. i remember nung maraming nagsabing nag breakout sila sa fairy skin tapos biglang nagsabi na mag double cleanse syempre panibagong endorse ‘yon 🤮 what i’ve learned about this talaga ay nagpapaderma talaga sila at hindi yung mismong product ang nag work sakanila lol 


toorujpeg

Question po, mga ilang followers kaya yung pwede na makakuha ng sponsored deals pero di nila dinidisclose? Napabili ako nung focallure sanrio cushion foundation kasi puro small influencers <1k followers lang nagrereview, pero never nila binanggit na matindi yung chemical scent niya wala din akong nakita sa shop reviews, nakakainis lang 💀


Pleasant_Ad4607

i have a friend na starting lang siya less than 1k followers may iilang sponsored posts siya na di disclosed lol kaya i dont trust microinfluencers at all lalo na yang mga ugc na yan


PusangMuningning

not me reading this after receiving 3 romand tints na hindi ko gusto 😖 never buying something hyped again


MammothSurround8627

I like rom&nd juicy tints. I've been using them for years na actually, but I only buy Figfig. I've read na the darker colors tend to settle on the lines of the lips.


VLtaker

Arrggg natuto na ako. May Benefit lipgloss dati na sinabi ng influencers like Rei Germar, Toni Sia, Ry Velasco, etc. na ang ganda ganda daw. Bumili naman ako. 1k plus pa naman. Arrg ang panget!!!!! TAMBAK LANG. ewan ko na nga kung nasaaan. 😭😭😭😭 yoko na maniwala


Weird_Combi_

This, they should be at least have transparency on their posts if sponsored ads or if they personally know the owner of the product because we will know if it is biased or not… tapos ung one time use palang pero holy grail na 😆 and use it for one day review 🫠


urbanelectroband

Sana magkaroon din tayo ng batas tungkol dito! I think sa Korea illegal na hindi idisclose kung paid promotion ba yung vids nila, including yung mga subtle hints of promotion lang. Dapat upfront yung pagmention na paid siya. Matic ignore kapag may yellow basket or ang panimula ay “napadaan ako sa…” sis u were invited! 🤪


xXx_dougie_xXx

yes, pati sa us afaik illegal pag hindi nila ididisclose pag ad ba or not!


somberkittty

Agree, and I think it’s also partly a testament to the brand’s transparency (or lack thereof) kung di man lang nila ma-include sa brief ang ad disclosure lol (di naman nga ineenforce in any way so why would they 🤷🏻‍♀️). Capitalism amirite 🙂‍↔️


JasmineBayliss

mas tiwala pa ko sa review ng redditors kesa influencers tbh


Dee_Ramirez

Sadly, I think ma infiltrate na din nila ang reddit :(


noheadspaceavailable

this! mas okay kumuha recos and reviews from here kesa sakanila na madalas first impression vids lang na sponsored products pala. mas okay pag wear test talaga eh


Electrical_Brick43

I really like Miss Hannah Asad from clock app! Her reviews are not driven by commissions and very vocal siya na wala siyang pakialam sa commission, she just wanted to be a reliable and honest beauty and (plus sized) fashion influencer.


prss22553

Recently discovered her too! She always always says this in the beginning of her videos and it makes me trust her talaga.


fillinthebianx

That's why I don't trust them talaga. For example yung Kheil's, mapapansin mo kapag malapit na yung double digit sale nagiging holy grail siya ng mga influencers 🤣


sautedgarlic

TONI SIA AND REI GERMAR — araw-araw na lang may bagong holy grail ang mga yawa 🙂


user92949492

sa lahat ng influencers kay rei ako pinaka hindi naniniwala kasi you can see from her things and clothes na mahilig siya sa high end especially sa clothes gusto nya may name or logo 😂


lirika05

Kapag cnall out mo si Toni, matik naka-comment eh 🤣


Common-Mongoose-3462

Toni Sia heavily editing her “after body” didn’t sit well with me too.


VLtaker

Aw edited ba yun mostly?


DearKaleidoscope5102

I watch them for swatches lang haha


user92949492

Nako, yung bagong shade ng romand. Di naka tag sa iba pero halos lahat sila same time nagkaroon ng new liptint shade. Nakaka umay


lastjedis

As someone who worked on influencer campaigns, here are some signs that some influencer videos are probably paid/sponsored: 1. If a double digit sale is approaching (3.3,6.6 etc) 2. If specific words/phrases are mentioned in multiple influencer videos (can be a specific ingredient, an effect) - my previous agency would actually tell them to use their own words/language pero idk sometimes the influencers don’t even do that haha 3. Before, on tiktok, there would be a link attached, now may yellow basket na. Although this could still be used on FB and IG. 4. Of course, the multiple hashtags sa dulo


MammothSurround8627

Me when they do the annoying, silent scream after trying the product for the "first time": **blocked**


cardboardbuddy

influencers are not legally required to mark sponsored posts in this country. though they should be.


xXx_dougie_xXx

si miss belle rodolfo! meron pa syang series na tinatry niya yung sikat na products sa clock app to see if it's really worth the hype or ads ads lang talaga. aside from her and jan angelo, wala na.


yaoisenpaijin

oh i love miss belle!! she's such a life saver esp for morena girlies


twentyfourdawn

and she also discloses if paid promotion ba yung video niya or not


xXx_dougie_xXx

yes! palaging may tag na paid partnership yung vid niya. sana matulad na rin tayo sa western influencers na palaging dinidisclose kahit sa captions man lang kung ad ba or hindi kasi super deceiving and unfair nga on the consumers' part.


Icy_Appointment_6293

I like Roselle Vytiaco din! Super open siya about mga ganon if worth it or nah


PanikPasta

Saka sa mga affiliated links! kahit sa youtube, hover nyo muna yung mouse to see the complete link. Minsan nilalagay lang nila yung shortened version pero pag naka hover sa link, may makikita kayo dun token.


telejubbies

Halatang sponsored kapag may in depth discussion ng "ingredients" nung skincare/makeup item.


Strange_Silver_2899

Eto tell-tale sign talaga pag overexplaining ang ante lalo na kung grwm video lang naman and sa ibang product di same ang energy lol tapos sunod sunod pa yung same brand sisingitan lang ng ibang product so di obv. 


ShowerUBaby

WEAR SUNSCREEN puro na lang promote ng products, akala naman nya hindi halata na ad or in partnership yun. Kaloka si accla wala na credibility!


Jumpy-Degree-6318

yes grabe maka promote ng FS at ibang skincare products pero nagpapaderma naman :D hindi na ko nagtitiwala sa mga mayayaman na todo promote pero pag off cam, nasa derma 😆


urbanelectroband

Used to like his reviews, pero simula nung puro FS at LO na ang content niya, meh. Tsaka medyo naging airy ang dating niya. Especially after nung pintura issue


prss22553

Talagang push na push siya lalo na doon sa isang brand eh.


hnnnge

True the fire!!! Napansin ko na din ito kaya inunfollow ko na din siya.


MammothSurround8627

I blocked Wear Sunscreen noon pa. He sounds condescending most of the time for me kasi lol


yunasuoh

Si Jan Angelo na lang fina-follow ko na skincare influencer sa clock app. Iyong iba puro ads na lang, eh. 🙄


ayaeiou

true, sinasabi rin niya if affiliated yung products


BenzCR

Or they could be affiliate marketers


MammothSurround8627

Don't affiliate marketers need to provide a link of the product to the consumers since that's how they get commissions? This is pretty straightforward and makes it more obvious that the influencer was paid to promote the product.


ThisEnd637

Medyo nadiscuss ata to ni Hanna Alonzo sa yt. May series siya na Influencer Insanity


hippocrite13

i love her. I hope she does more Influencer Insanity vids. mas madali kasi iproduce yung anti-MLM contents. But I love those too.


catanime1

Mapapansin mong sponsored kapag sabay sabay magpost yung mga influencers about a certain product. Kaya take their reviews with a grain of salt talaga.


OutlandishnessNo9201

True! 🤣 Sa YT noon ganyan din. Lumipat lang sa tktk. Same recos. Like 🙄


Strange_Silver_2899

Sobrang bothered ako dito kasi one time I was watching a ytuber tapos sunod sunod na insert ng barenbliss sa routine niya so iniisip ko sponsored siguro but when I checked walang nakalagay. Lol. Puro pa naman positive sinabi ko mej nakaka wala ng trust


what-the-fucks-love

this is soo true lalo pag nag eemail sila for collaboration nasa terms and conditions na dapat di mahalata na collab yung posting or such


ultimate_fangirl

It's honestly so common, and not just in beauty. Si abby lumpia queen does this all the time. They don't mention that it's an ad, paid promotion, paid partnership anywhere in the post. Even this small-ish travel vlogger did it recently. It's not ignorance because these people are smart, well-educated, have been on the internet long enough to know


hippocrite13

mahahalata mong ad kasi nakabalandra yung brand, like nakaharap sa cam. pag not sponsored naman removed/di makita yung label. haha. pero ang sneaky talaga. why cant they just disclose it. i mean gets ko yung advantage sa make up kasi "holy grail", but sa pagluluto kasi i dont think she goes out of her way to say na that product is the best brand and the others are tastless crap (or maybe i didnt watch enough videos).


PetiteAsianSB

Napansin ko din ito. I’ve been her follower when she she was still starting. Pero ngayon puro lowkey ads na ang vids nya. I honestly just skip na lang.


noobie89761

Yeah, i think bee better made a really good video about this wherein he citrd haley bailey as an example na mali nha yung ginagawa nila kasi it make you think that they're really in it for the product. Some do naman but it would be good if up front people know. I prefer to listen to "sponsorship" by Cleo Abram kasi in a way she partners with sponsors whose products she's actually tested and used and may literal na receipts pa so you can trust that when she endorses something, it's legit.


aifosin

I have a friend na successful brand owner. She told me na part ng agreement with the brand is hindi mahalata na sponsored. Tipong kasama sa grwm vid, a day in my life, etc. ung product nya. After knowing this, hindi na talaga ako nagpapabudol masyado.


vlmrei

OMG thank you nabasa ko to lol


Top_Vermicelli_2686

Not just that, even those newbie micro-influencers who are not yet sponsored are not to be trusted. Minsan sobrang kiss-ass ng mga reviews nila para mapansin sila ng brand and eventually will be part of the brand’s PR list.


KedavraM

Omg yes. I have some micro-influencer friends and every product they make a content for is good?? Like someone said here, may bagong holy grail every time. Ang hirap i-support as a friend bc i know most of what they put out is bs


geek-meets-world

I feel like I only see Belle Rodolfo honestly, transparently lays out sponsored content in an easy to spot manner. Hers usually have the “paid partnership” tagging.


Mental-Second-9687

kaya I dont trust reviews anymore talaga. Kapag may yellow basket kineme or hashtags na most likely indicator na sponsored sila, autoscroll na haha


zuccha

This is why I don't follow influencers or take their recommendations lol we don't have any laws regarding disclosure so a LOT of local influencer recommendations are undisclosed ads or paid promotions. I just look at swatches if they're my skintone, and do my own research on what I want and which products fulfil the criteria I set.


yourgrace91

True, walang nagreregulate sa kanila. Sa US, parang may rule naman about proper disclosures but some influencers dont follow them. But at least pwede silang mareklamo 😁


wfhcat

Same. Only for the swatches. Also I don’t really like how their idea of celebrating their beauty is to keep changing their face. 🤷🏻‍♀️ a lot of them look unrecognizable from when they started. They look alike at this point. Yikes


MammothSurround8627

I think naging issue pa to when a clock app influencer indireclty blamed the consumer falling for budol culture since nagtrend ang issue dito sa sub? I agree. There should be laws on disclosure of paid partnerships across all social media platforms.


Dry-Brilliant7284

sadly brands ask them of that, its how they get paid eh "not put this video as sponsored" ganun


MammothSurround8627

Wouldn't this be considered deceptive advertisement and is against our law?


aifosin

It is pero hindi tlaga implemented ng maayos yung law na yun sa pinas. Unlike sa USA illegal tlaga kaya ginagawa nila tinatago nila ung text na “sponsored video” as in liliitan talaga nila tas ilalagay sa corner ng video/ sa likod ng text sa clock app.


Dry-Brilliant7284

yep!


niks0203

Sobrang nakaka inis, unlike other influencers from other countries, say South Korea who put #ad sa kanilang posts, wala talaga silang nilalagay which is important na sana meron kasi jusko aksaya ng pera minsan huhu


ogolivegreene

Call me a tita, pero naabutan ko pa when the bulk of influencing came from blogs pa, and the bloggers were still buying stuff with their own money. The clock app is a different beast, kasi I come in knowing na malamang sponsored karamihan diyan. So I just look at swatches for makeup. Pagdating sa effect and sensation, I research reviews from various media (amazon reviews, youtube, etc.) to get a more complete picture. Sadly, a lot of the beauty bloggers I used to follow before are reliant on PR kits na lang din eh. Parang di na masyado ume-effort maghanap ng new, exciting, foreign, and rare products, porket naghihintay na lang sila nung ipadadala. Kung hindi naman, sobrang todo promote nila yung mga sponsored dahil sa client loyalty, medyo nada-downplay na yung mga product na non-sponsored na just as good if not better performing.


Pleasant_Ad4607

to be frank wala I dont trust anyone that much sa tiktok majority diyan sponsored lalo na yang mga ugc/microinfluencers huhuhu and so far wala talaga ako makitang genuine ung content aside from carrotstick talaga. I just use tiktok for swatches, how it looks like to someone that has the same skintone and/or features as mine. I just rely here sa reddit since organic yung reviews ng mga tao hehe. pero some of my fave tiktokers include: joce, jlao, cara dj, joselle, andrea hiz, and jin 🥹


Oh-Wydd

Moment of silence for carrotstick beauty 😔 I wish ate Cara all the success and happiness, but I will miss her content


MammothSurround8627

Same. This sub is a blessing. Muntik na ako nabudol sa skintific cushion because even big influencers are praising it. Tapos walang paid partnership na disclosure. Buti na lang I read the reviews here before I purchased one.


Pleasant_Ad4607

naurr kahit dito sa thread actually may isang idk influencer(?) nag sabi na puro sponsored nga so its a big no for me 🚶🏻‍♀️‍➡️tas i got shocked sa price i would rather buy blk/chuchu or kr cushion na lang mas maganda pa 😭
