GRWM..but it's an ad video

I've been noticing a lot more lately and I wonder what are yalls thoughts. 

I've been seeing a lot more videos (they're beauty influencers) talking about relationships or telling their dating stories, and they do that WHILE getting ready for bed OR getting ready for the day (so they use makeup/ skincare products)

 

But here's a thing. I didn't realize cuz I just scroll down tons of videos, but I thought something felt weird and I opened up the caption section and OF COURSE certain brand was tagged. 

 

Now I feel cringed out seeing those types of videos from her because I know whatever she's talking in the video, it doesn't matter for her. She knows we will be looking at the products she's using, even the clothes she's wearing. 

 

I knew that this is how it is but also got another reminder that you should never fully trust anything on social media lol

    Gosh!! Totally get you. I felt this when scrolling on IG. Some post, looking like showing their own daily life, ends up showing the collabs ugh

    I feel like building up that trust with your followers mean so much more than getting more gifts from brands. That's what I prioritized first and I have no regret

    This is one of the reasons the views of my grwm videos are not high as it used to be. Due to those influencers, people lost trust and interest in this kind of contents.

    The content itself is fun and people still love it, but if they can feel that sponsored vibe in any ways, I think they immediately walk away

    There should be new standards as to discern ad-posts and non-ad ones.

    @Influencer Getting sponsored isn't a bad thing at all, but making it look like daily vlog or 'natural' routine is what makes people uncomfortable

    I don't even know where to start. I feel like we all came too far to fix things. There's way too many micro creators now
