## Description

in which we chat about why I don't love dupes and why I think the request for dupes is pushing the makeup game into a negative direction. Sure there are good things about dupes, but not everything needs to be duped for sure.

I film my videos mainly using natural lighting as artificial studio lighting greatly alters the look/ performance of products and acts very similary to a filter. Besides, I don't live my life under studio lighting, so I need my makeup to look good in natural lighting mostly for my day to day life, which I why I prefer to test out products in the type of lighting I see my makeup in most.
