The amount of time, effort and research you put into these videos is phenomenal. You are a fountain of knowledge and the fact you share this for free astounds me. You're an incredible beautiful woman Penn, and I genuinely thank you so so much for making my skin glow. You are the only you tuber I trust and 100% believe in. I've never doubted one thing you've said or recommended, and can honestly say that each link you share, provides me with a new present for myself that I've never regretted buying. I'm from the UK and you beat them all. Thank you xx

Thank you for explaining main ingredient in simple terms. You’ve helped me shop for what I really need.

Many thanks Penn for such wonderful dupes that even work better!

I love your energy! I can always tell you really enjoy your job. You really put so much research and thought in. Thank you!

The amount of science and backing in your videos is truly amazing, thank you so much for sharing all of this info with us!! I'd LOVE to see a video on microneedling the body (arms, back, decollate) for acne scarring!!!

I love your videos! I also want to thank you so much for doing videos on affordable options. That means so much to me. You are a sweetheart and I'm thankful for you and your educational videos.

These are my two favorite Lancôme products- thank you so much for showing us the dupe!

Your videos are so informative and the dupes are so much more affordable. I trust you, plain and simple.

Thank you again - loved your video. Someone finally looking after those that cannot afford those high end products. Everyone deserved good quality.

I really appreciate all the research you’re doing for all of us! Fantastic video, thank you 🙏 xx

Yes! please show us how you find these alternatives!!! although you have a level of knowledge that I don't--not even close! Fantastic video. I really struggle with my skin barrier and have for decades. Thank you.

Thank you for breaking down the ingredients for us, Penny! Knowledge truly is power - can't believe how much some companies charge for products crammed with not-so-great stuff like fragrance and alcohol denatured :/

Hi Penny I so appreciate you and your channel because you bring such strong value: thorough and very informative. Thanks for another really helpful video that points me in the right direction🙂 I sometimes cannot find some of the products you mention as being availsble to be shipped to Canada or available here, but the information that you provide in your videos enables me to know what to look for, and from that I am always able to find an alternative. That just takes a bit of time searching🙂👍PS, I thought you were about 35! you look fantastic!🙂👍

Love Acure products!!! I'll have to try this one! 😊 Thank you so much for sharing these types of videos!

Penny -I REALLY appreciate your knowledge, research and delivery of alternative dupes for expensive skin care . It’s so easy to get caught up in the marketing hype of certain products like Lancôme Génifique- Thank You - now I can spend my savings on my family 😊

Appreciative Australian subscriber right here 🙋🏻‍♀️ THANKYOU for this video I learnt so much and will be trying your recommended dupes!! 🙌🙌 my bank account already loves you for it

Thank you SO much, Penn! I LOVE your affordable dupes videos! Huge favorite that I send to friends who then subscribe. You’re the best! XO

I love these videos!!!!! Please do more!!! Maybe for face masks, under eye masks, sheet masks. Then maybe a video on dupes for high end moisturizers for different skin types. Im oily. Maybe a video on good CBD products?

Yeah I’m interested in the whole CBD in skincare, I’ve tried one product it was an essence by Perricone MD. I know it had some sort of Mushroom in it , and I got a irritation from it, I’m assuming an allergy to an ingredient!? Probably the Mushroom , Ive used Perricone in the past and my skin has never loved it. Luckily it was gifted or I received it for free to review. Anyways I’d be interested in CBD in skincare and does it do anything for our skin. Ive had great outcomes with balms for the body for pain relief and I’ve had gummy’s that helped with sleep, but that’s a whole different topic. CBD is amazing for so many reasons, but in our skincare!? Idk 🤷🏻‍♀️

Penny, I just LOVE you. I love your intelligent, CLEAR explanations and those amazing ingredient deck comparisons. You have been a TRUE gift to my anti-aging life! I bought the Isntree TW-Real BIFIDA Anti-Wrinkle Korean Face Collagen Ampoule (off of e-bay because it was unavailable on Amazon). Can't wait to try it. I always love your dupes videos! Paula's Choice makes a Radiance Renewal Mask, which is an overnight mask that for some reason just boost the glow when I use it--would love a dupe for that, or even your thoughts on it. Again, thank you so much!

Awww you are soooo welcome! And you don’t look a day past 29 lol I’m actually 30 and we look the same age, I love watching your videos and seeing how you take care of your beautiful skin, I would def buy some products you talk about . I have been into skincare for like 2 years and I’m loving Korean skin care right now I saw you mentioned a few you like, it’s all about the ingredients and not so much the price point, and that’s why your completely right when you say you do not have to break the bank to have good skin or a good skincare routine. You are such a sweetheart, you are my fav KZreadr!!!😊❤️😉

Hi Penny - YES to the process in a video. I love these videos to find a fragrance free affordable alternative to popular really expensive products. I have to be super careful with the skincare I use as I have developed rosacea during the menopause. This is in additon to already sensitive/eczema prone skin which means my skin is now hypersensitive. I have had to go completely fragrance free in all leave on products and alcohol heavy products really sting/burn. I want to use products for anti aging benefits, but I have to be super careful re formulation. I have a personal list of ingredients I have identified which are in multiple products my skin really doesn't like (suggesting a senstivity/allergy to those ingredients). This has helped identify other products that would have been a waste of money for me to try and helps me to find things I can use. Best wishes.

Oh my goodness girlfriend! You are such a treasure! And I appreciate your knowledge more than you ever know! I went straight & ordered the Genefique dupe immediately! Thank you again, luv u much, & you look beautiful as always! 🤗😘🌹🌹🌹❤❌⭕

This series is unparalleled. The way you highlight the ingredients, sooo appreciated! I considered myself very well versed in skincare, until I discovered your channel. I was wondering if you might consider comparing alternatives to Perricone and also one on peptides for scalp (like comparing the Ordinary scalp serum 18.00 vs Curlsmith density elixer 39.00 or similar products)

Oh Penny. You are just the best. I am beyond thrilled to have an alternative to the Lancôme serum and eye cream. An even BETTER option with no denatured alcohol. And I just purchased the Needleless serum on a super sale and have been using for a little over a week and my skin absolutely loves it. I’ve seen a difference already. It’s expensive but I’ll be shopping the sales. Hugs from Az 🤗

Hi Penny! I am 45 and just starting to take my skin care serious. I have loved all your affordable recommendations! I am trying to keep it simple but effective, my main concern is hyperpigmentation and of course I want to combat fine lines. I am double cleansing with PF balm, Cerave, then I use Tranex, Acure whipped cream, and sunscreen. I would like a good recommendation on a moisturizer and any other product to help my sunspots. I am so thankful I found your channel! I love catching up on the videos in Sunday’s!

Thank you for your informative videos! You're such a delight to watch! I always enjoy watching and learning. And now look for phenoxyethanol as the marker in the skincare I buy lol. And yes, please share a tutorial on how you find these treasures. Thank you!!!

I am beyond grateful for all your time, research and even the way you edited the video. I just bought the Lancôme serum and I really like it. So awesome that you found the Isa Tree product because the Lancôme price tag is crazy. Going to buy the Isa Tree. Thank you so much!!

For the Skinceutical one, Reviva has a "Dark spot britening serum" with all the ingredients you mentionned and less than 20$. It's fragrance free and so lightweight on the skin!

I LOVE the Manyo Factory Bifidalacto Complex! In fact, thank you for the reminder that I need to buy another bottle. It’s amazing! It also comes in a spray form, which I defo need to try! Also, I found a dupe for one of my fave products, the Biossance Squalane + Vitamin C rose Oil. It’s the Leah Skin Rose + Glow Face Oil.

I don’t know if your makeup has changed or what, but you look absolutely flawless and you’re glowing!! I watch every one of your videos and you look different in this one- in a good way!

Great dupes Penn! I’ve been using the Needle-less Serum for about 3 or 4 months (the bottle lasts forever) and really like it. The only downside is that the niacinamide has lightened the skin under my eyes. My under eye circles are due to loss of fat and not hyperpigmentation so it actually accentuates the circles. It’s a real catch 22 because it’s definitely helped with fine lines and dryness. I passed on the Lancôme serum because of the alcohol so thanks for presenting an alternative. I’d love to see your ‘dupes discovery’ process😉

I just ordered the Isntree serum because of your review. At this point in life, my hubby and I are looking for him to retire so I just won’t even consider a product that costs a bunch of money. At 69, I’m better off spending the money On some laser treatments (which I’m doing now). My skin is also a lot more sensitive to anything I put on it than when I was younger so I really like to know about the ingredients in anything before I try it out. The Isntree seems like it will be really good for my skin barrier especially during the laser treatments and when I MN. So- big thanks again! So- I love and really appreciate when you dive down the rabbit hole to get the real poop on ingredients. It totally satisfies my geeky side!❤️ I’d love a vid on how you go about it.

Penny you're an amazing source of finding dups, and the work you put in to give us great! information!! I wonder if you could ad to oz millilitres as well because in Europe we use that, and it seems like I'm not the only one from here.
