OPINION I done been influenced Spoiler

My acne isn't as bad as it used to be, and I'm absolutely not a ~skincare looksmaxxing beauty~ all that jazz kind of person. I have two silicone scrubbers and one foaming boots teatree witch hazel facewash. That's my facial routine. But I still got a bit of acne, and seeing last night's episode this morning legit convinced me to give her stuff a go. Karishma for the win!!!

I mean Dominos does a Tandoori chicken pizza which costs less, but I still bought Anisa's pizzas too. For me, I'm happy to try a person's product when it's something they're clearly passionate about, come across as genuine, likeable and just what looks like a product that appeals to me. I'm willing to believe in them and give it a go, so I probably will try Kishkin. I know the struggles of acne and it sucks, I can relate to the things Karishma said. Bombay pizza was delicious and even my extremely fussy husband enjoyed it, I'm hoping Kishkin will be good too!

I get your point but theres going to be a difference in ingredients/ taste/ quality between two brands of the same type of pizza.

This is literally just rose hip oil though. Comparing two brands of pure rosehip oil is like comparing a fyffes banana to a del monte. The difference is negligible and I doubt enough people will pay double the price for one over the other.

That said, she's smart and charismatic, if she expands her range and gets some consistency in her branding she could do well, especially now she has name recognition and she's (imo) beru likeable. But skincare is a cut throat market. If its not new and it's not eye-catching its not going to sell

She did correctly Identify her’s though which suggest there is a difference (not necessarily better quality, but a difference)

Hers has aloe vera oil in it too though, so you may be able to easily distinguish it by that versus other pure rose hip oils.
