Fancy Containers - Page 2

I appreciate nicer packaging. I especially don't like face creams or serums packed in plastic. I want glass for the good stuff. Korres makes their face butter in an ugly plastic tub and it made me not like the product!

I buy the products, not fancy packaging. Except that I do prefer airless pumps or upside-down squeeze tubes for product safety and ease of use. Packaging doesn't need to be beautiful, just safe and convenient. Empty containers/dispensers go into recycling.

Yes, I am guilty of loving the Tatcha containers. I do use a few of the products which I feel are worth the cost imo because you need less of the product & work well for my skin, I love the way they look on my vanity. ETA: I did not toss the face cream jar with the golden spoon but rather transfer my moisturizer into the Tatcha jar.

I don't think I have ever chosen a pricey beauty product due to its fancy packaging; if it does what I want it to do, I don't care if it comes in a plain brown paper bag...the fancy packaging is supposed to make you think the product is better or higher quality; .not sure that is always the case.

Effective ingriedients and an affordable price point are most important to me. Also, I have most of my skincare in a drawer away from direct sunlight.

I would never purchase skincare based on a fancy container.

While they're at it, please take out the plastic handbags as an incentive to buy. Put that energy and resources in better ingriedents and/or lower prices. I see so many of those junky bags that end up at the thrift store or in the trash.

Neither would I ever purchase because of fancy packaging. Actually, for me, it's a bit of a turn off.

I once watched a couple unboxing videos to find out what was included in certain kits. That info should have been made available from whomever was selling the item in the first place. I find those you tube videos yawn inducing. In fact I find most you tube videos boring, with the exception of musical numbers.

As far as skin care goes I really do not care much about having a fancy jar etc. I prefer a pump for some things but other than that I don't really care. Packaging is a waste in many cases. Why on earth do they waste so much on what they pack things in? As far as makeup goes there are some things that I prefer to have look nice, like a compact or an eyeshadow palette. I don't like it when they look like they were made for a 5 year old though.
