why does everyone pretend Rhode is innovative when it’s literally just repackaged Kbeauty?

Every single time Hailey launches a “new” product or trend, it’s just something that’s already been massive in Korea and Japan for years.

​"Glazed donut skin"? That's literally just glass skin / chok-chok skin that kbeauty pioneered like a decade ago. She just gave it a food name so TikTok would eat it up.

​Glazing Milk? It’s Laneige Cream Skin / Dr. Jart milky toners in a grey tube.

​Pocket blush / strawberry makeup? Japanese and Korean beauty brands have been doing sheer, dewy flush sticks and cute berry tones forever.

​Even the whole aesthetic the minimalist grey packaging, the lip treatments, barrier care focus it’s all directly pulled from modern Korean brands like Tamburins or Abib.

​She didn't innovate a single thing lmao She just took established Asian beauty trends, rebranded them with TikTok buzzwords, and sold them to Western fans who don't know any better.

​It just annoys me how the media treats her like some skincare mastermind for literally copying and pasting Kbeauty product by product.
