Pink tax frr

user150705021 :

i used to work at a skincare store. i can’t even tell you the number of men who walked in and asked “what products here are for men”. every single time i told them “everything. skincare is unisex.” 🫠

ㅎㅅㅎ🍌🇪🇺🍉 :

are you sure there are no lasting side effects for using these? like do you feel like you need to sit with our legs open in the metro or do get randomly paid more? that would be fun

rushen :

makeup doesn’t have a gender but they probably did that for marketing i mean men who are cowards to buy regular makeup would probably get attracted by that and buy it 😭

Cara :

The men's foundation products also have deeper shades 🙌

Sophavy :

they're probably less irritating too with less fragrance

sunnie ࣪˖ ִֶָ𐀔 :

wow, it's actually pink tax!

alex :

Andddd if you have dark skin you won’t find your tone in the girls section so I use men’s cushion cause they have more shades, love how it’s cheaper lol

୨୧ 𐔌 린 ) :

Actually, women in Korea with darker skin tones often end up buying men’s cosmetics simply because that’s one of the few places we can find shades that match our skin (they make significantly darker shades for males). So many makeup brands still offer ridiculously limited shade ranges, with most options catering to extremely pale complexions. It’s honestly sad that we’re still having to have this conversation

mistydew :

we should be more mad actually

Jane Doe 🇵🇸 :

"Colour balm" are they for real this is actually ridiculous 😭 bruh it's just lipstick or tinted lipbalm

Jime(히메)♡ :

I think I will finally find my shade in that section

kate ✦ :

it’s a regular marketing strategy, unfortunately. women are often perceived as willing to pay more for items they believe are specialized for them andd companies capitalize on this by raising prices 😓

luna 🍀 :

if the foundations were lighter i would totally buy from mens section bc all kr foundations have this weird sticky texture but i am assuming its all the same

freya♡ :

pink tax at it again🫩

user38370885655 :

And what would happen if men also got periods?

Mina Kim :

Iope makes a all-in-one skin care.. but doesn't make it for women. So I buy the All in One with Retinolx2 and use that with my routine. nothing like the "Pink Tax" even in Korea.

Celeste :

Was that a dr.Althea toner?????

xiuminshoe6 :
