*update*
I heard back from Cosmetify and they do infact sell on shein
Huh, I was not expecting that 😮
My next question would be "why?" 😂
They sale YSL makeup 2😅
Just ran over here to say I LOVE YOUR LOOK in this video! ❤ wow your eyes are gorgeous- that eyeshadow shade makes them just absolutely STELLAR ❤❤
Why would a brand debase itself by selling on a site like this? Even if it isn't counterfeit, we all assume it is based on the intellectual property theft that occurs daily on these sites. Seems like a bad marketing move. I'd be less likely to buy them, even through legit channels.
Remember everyone! Cheap makeup isn’t bad, fake makeup is 🖤
Hi Robert ❤
Hi robert can you do review on sigma dryer spa and cleaning product for makeup 🤗SIGMA DRY'N SHAPE® TOWER FACE & EYES
💯 Have been burnt by that before & I'll no never no more purchasesed anything like " original " stuff at these websites !! Remember the Farsali days ? Mmmmhhmmm on Ali baba 😱😭😬
Let's say I learned from those days 😂🙈
Accountability is direct in this way maybe reasoning. Wondering who polices the fake branded make up and follows through on that process if they do that. Meaning outside of the imitated company filing a report or complaint. Dollar tree genetics carry statements that say something to the effect of "Compare to Almay...". On some products, but not often in cosmetics, and they do list product origin or manufacturer (or Both) which is maybe to comply with legal aspects of responsible party in the event of an issue, or the product is similar and not exactly the same or original name brand. Some retail carrying name brand will have a statement such as; "Made by So-and-so for Dollar Tree." Laws maybe in effect and are not followed up on depending on the company location. It raises a lot of questions and good points.
Exactly. All these commenters misconstrued your message 😂😂😂
Shein recently stole my friend’s artwork and used it in a sticker pack. I’m so angry because I know how hard she worked on that art piece!
Does your friend sell their art? If so do you mind sharing their shop? I’m really sorry, I’ve heard artists say it’s so common for shein to steal art that it’s like a rite of passage…
I bought a really cool graphic tee on there once and found out later it was someone else’s artwork that they were selling on their own merch. Felt so bad, I would’ve bought the artists shirt had I known that 😔 I hate art thieves
I hate when brands do stuff like that
She could sue them, it would take forever, though😢
sorry for this but I am here to say there are many similar stuffs online and many other platforms might have the same question. If you contact their cs they would take them down
They are also selling them on Amazon under different company names. 90% of the products on Amazon, especially clothing, is now from Shein. Buying from an official store on Amazon doesn't matter bc of the way Amazon ships unless it's shipped directly from the official business themselves.
Thanks for this interesting video. I hope you're having a great week. ❤
What do you mean my ASDFGH mascara isn't real!? 😭
@@ChilakkumaLOL
Amazon had a fake product problem before SHEIN even got into the market and SHEIN has the same problem now because it allows sellers and storefronts.
Your eyeshadow is stunning. "Don't ask me I'm not a criminal" 🤣
😂🖤
It's 4 AM, and that made me laugh out loud! 😂
Such an elegant reply!
I have never purchased from Shein, Wish or Temu & hope I never need to. I do understand that some people’s budgets means they need to buy from places like this, I just wish people who don’t financially need to would stop doing it.
I’m so annoyed & upset by the fake stuff being sold even on Etsy now 😢 I never want to buy counterfeit stuff & worry I will do so unintentionally soon. As a disabled person who cannot drive going in person to the brand shops isn’t an option for me.
This is a great comment. So many people slag others off for buying from these websites but you understand that some have no choice. Great to see some understanding of people's financial situations at last 👍 it's not ideal, but some people have no choice
Yes this is exactly why I said no judgment!
@@darlosmurf148I don't mean to be rude but if you have no other choices truly, it really doesn't sound like those people should be shopping in the first place.
@@the.office.alliance4736what? People need clothes. And “the poor” deserve to be happy once in a while too. And buy a treat here and there. I’m sure I’ve misunderstood you.
@@EmeraldCosmic Nope, I meant what I said. If you can honestly ONLY afford to shop places like Shein and it's fast fashion garbage then it sounds like you can't really afford to be shopping to begin with, sorry.
And lets not pretend that anybody shopping these places shops for the longevity of the items. The entire issue with places like Shein is they make flimsy things of awful quality that literally end up in landfill just as quickly they make it. You're draining your money (willingly).
Not CZcams hitting me with the Shein ad at the beginning of this video 😭
😅 I know right.
Noooo!!! 😂😂😂
I've been racked with Temu ads lately! That "shop like a billionaire" thing lol
I had a Shein ad at the start, too! 😂
Me too 😭😭
I cant believe anybody would order anykind of make up/skincare from Shein, Wish, Temu etc..
I've actually ordered makeup from Temu but only from brand names I recognize like NOVO and haven't had an issue, except when I try to reorder at the Temu price and it's no longer in stock 😢
I think there was stories a while back of people buying false lashes on Shein and having allergic reactions. Some girls eyes like swelled shut, if I'm not mistaken. A testament of why it's not worth the risk when you don't 100% know what you're buying.
Right! I'm so worried about things I put on or in my body!
Actually she glam is fantastic makeup. I have super sensitive skin and it doesn’t bother me.
@@genageeraert8039"Fantastic" make up to you is that it just doesn't "bother" your skin? Doesnt say much for the standards.
SHEIN is such a blight, stealing from independent creators and brands, flat out fake advertising, horrible working conditions, and so many other things. If people buy there due to low income that's understandable, but wayyyy too many consumerism-pushing influencers and people that don't need to purchase non-sustainable fast fashion promote the brand without thinking about how their money supports so many shitty things 😞
Nobody *needs* fake luxury makeup. It literally serves no point unless you have the most toxic social life/job ever & even then someone will notice it’s fake
@@kathrynparker9790Temu is definitely a totally different company. They literally wanted to hope on the Shein trend.
Exactly. I will NEVER shame someone that can't afford other fast-fashion stores or can't have access to 2nd hand. But those influencers are pushing the narrative that there's nothing wrong ordoring $200/300 of clothes every month. This is ridiculous. Just from a consumerism point of view, not even starting on human rights point of view.
@@kathrynparker9790they are not the same company. What is your source for that? They are owned and created by different corporations. Unless you’re in conspiracy territory
100%!! People don't like hearing that :/
Glad to see I'm not the only one who noticed this, as I shopped for Christmas ornament decorations!
I've noted that they all claim to be sold in the "marketplace," and although people try to tell me it's the real thing (with prices to match) there's so much fake products sold on Amazon , Walmart and Ebay, I'm certainly not going to believe those on Shein are real.
This thoo Amazon has got so bad
Every platform that got too big and convenient is overrun by people taking advantage of the lack of policing. It's impossible to go back unless they restrict seller access to authorized parties.
@@emilycanfield2634 Amazon and Walmart both have, but what really saddens me is A) not being able to trust that the products are genuine from retailers (whom we should be able to trust) and B) so many people not on YT,TT, etc who don't realize that the market is over 50% fraudulent, and they believe that they're purchasing the real thing (which keeps that market going.😡)
@@thesussexbunion hell, even people on YT and stuff don't realize! an example i keep seeing is Sunset Makeup & all the comments are praising them for their great "small business" makeup but it's literally aliexpress makeup with just their label on it LMAO like....
I think ebay at last do ID checks on their accounts now? Or are people faking those too 🤔
I had a similar issue in South Africa. I purchased a name brand off an online store in South Africa and I thought I was buying the actual thing. I later tried to see where the product was made because I started getting suspicious because the packaging looked cheap. It ended up being a fake. Now when I purchase from the same website, I make sure that it is getting shipped from the manufacturer, to make sure that I am not supporting fraudulent companies.
from Takealot right? I get the feeling they don't double check resellers either. I've seen a lot of Shein stuff on there
@@Leelon 100% correct😄! I literally look now to see who is distributing before I buy, to make sure it is not fake. I definitely don't want fake makeup on my skin.
Takealot neh? It also has the same problem as these Amazon, Shein, Temu and other online stores. I feel like because online market is still new the world doesnt yet know how to regulate it and ensure authenticity of their sellers and the products they sell.
I've seen drunk elephant dupes on Shein, I haven't really looked through their app in depth, however we don't get drunk elephant and other brands in South Africa you often speak of, unfortunately a lot of South Africans are going to fall for these fakes 😢
I hope to see Skin Up on there soon, Robert 😂😂😂
The shops on Shein is new to me. When I ordered on Shein years ago they didn't have this "marketplace" set up. It was only shein brand. So I'm glad you made this video.
The eye makeup of Robert is gorgeous💜 he always looks amazing.
Thank you! 🖤🖤🖤
Hello! Resident Old Person on the Internet here 🤣 Shein is an offshoot of "She Inside" (so yes for those of you pronouncing it as SHE IN, you're correct) and I first came across this company while planning my wedding in 2011. Back then the planning forums were full of discussions about discount Chinese factories (Light in the Box was another popular one) who would "copy" any dress you sent them a picture of, along with your measurements. It was SO, SO, shady and I heard so many stories of heartbreak when dresses did not arrive on time, were not to order, were not the right size, or were just so cheaply made that they could not be worn. Grimly, a lot of them had little spots of blood on the stitching as well, another hint that the factory conditions were terrible, even back then.
I live in Europe and Shein has made things affordable for families to dress!! All clothing is either now made in Turkey, Bulgaria , India or Asia. Other European stores like Bershka and Pull n Bear are just as cheap as Shein and Zara and H&M are much cheaper in Europe than Australia.
omg Strawberrynet! They've been around since I was in high school in the mid-2000s. I remember getting Britney Spears "In Control" Curious perfume from there 😂
That eye makeup is GORGEOUS! Elsa who? ❄️😂💜
Thank you! 😂🖤🖤
"The cold never bothered me anyway" ❄🥶😂
It used to be called She Inside but then changed to She-In xx
that is such a weird name. I thought the "in" part was like she in fashion or something but she inside? jfsldfksdf I cant
seriously? 😭
She inside!!? What a strange name!
I remember seeing a random ad when SheIn was She Inside when I was 14/15, they offered party/prom kind of dresses back then!
I always thought it meant she-in as in the know or in style
I just generally avoid and don't buy from shein, wish, temu, etc. Doesn't fit with my morals and they sketch me out
tbh I still wanna buy from there cause it's more affordable
@@SzadyBohlyou buy there for cheap and will pay a lot for blood on your hands because of the human slaves they use… something to think about especially if you believe in god
Clicking and commenting as soon as I see the post. This was super informative for the people who love shopping on Shein.
THANK YOU for an important PSA, Robert.
Shein, like many other large online retailers, has a third-party "Marketplace" that's not directly coming from Shein but is more like Amazon, where different sellers can create a storefront and sell anything under the sun, including counterfeits. It's the same as the hubbub about Walmart "selling" Drunk Elephant and other brands not generally associated with discount stores like Walmart.
I personally think it's shady AF, and I don't think that it should be entirely on the buyer to beware, but it is important for consumers to know to check closely whether they are buying directly from the retailer or a third-party seller.
Exactly it is just weird. In South Africa we have takealot and it is also experiencing the same problem.
I see Robert post, I click ❤️😌
Thank you! 🖤🖤🖤
This is the investigative journalism we need 😩
“I don’t know,I am not a criminal “…😂
Requiring 2 million dollars in revenue before you can sign up to sell doesnt sound like "just anybody" can sign up to me.
*pinning because this is a good and valid point!*
By this I meant you don’t have to be a big name brand. I should have been clearer there! Professional criminals take in more than $2 million a year! And can easily set up stores like this!
Sounds like a🔺️ scheme imo
You're saying this like 2 million is a lot lol as robert pointed out, scammers can make these numbers easily. And you're working under ther assumption Shein even genuinely check for these requirements or truthfulness on the people who sign.
@@BeccaNa It's not. It's just a way to sell products like Amazon Marketplace or eBay Buy Now. The company gets a cut off each sale. The US version doesn't seem to have a $2 mil minimum.
@@RobertWelsh yes you're right! I really didn't mean this as harsh as it might have come across! I just kind of laughed to myself when you said that bc I went from thinking I could literally set up shop on SheIn to like uh nevermind 😂
I would not purchase counterfeit merchandise in any form. This is such a great content and so informative. Thank you again for reaching out to the companies and letting them know Robert. PS your eyes look amazingly crazy beautiful ♥️☮️🖤
I am in Australia and just over 10 years ago it was incredibly difficult to source makeup here. A lot of brands didn't sell in Australia. Those that did had insane markups compared to overseas, and/or sold a very reduced product range, and we didn't have any large chains like Sephora (Mecca was around but it hadn't franchised and wasn't the massive online retailer it is today). Back then, Strawberry Net was a website that we would use to source cosmetics from abroad. For the most part it worked out, but they definitely sold some dodgy stuff too (expired makeup, sometimes fakes). Online forums had information for how to check if the product you received was real or a fake, as the fake cosmetics were often really dangerous. It's wild to see the name name Strawberry Net pop up again!
Pretty sure the smashbox pallet I got there was fake. It was not nearly as good a formula as when I got to try real smashbox products
“I don’t know,I am not a criminal “…🤣🤣
Counterfeit products are big business. The come from China, Korea, Hong Kong & other places. That's what's being sold at Shein & other online retailers - even Amazon to an extent.
Amazon has had this problem even before SHEIN. It is just a problem with having a marketplace where people can sell and buy because it is difficult to ensure authenticity of sellers and products they sell.
Many legitimate products are made in China
Your makeup today is stunning. The shades of blue are breathtaking.
🤔looks grey and silver to me. But really gorgeous anyway
My eye makeup will never look as good as Robert’s. Stunning.
I've been shopping on Shein for ages and never had issues with their makeup! Always genuine products, love their selection!
If I see anything luxury on fast fashion websites I assume it's fake.
I LOVE this icy, minty eyeshadow look 🤩 I would love to be brave (and skilled) enough for these bright colors.
SHEIN had a massive problem with there site last year people were typing in kids shoes and sex toys were coming up, they fixed the problem eventually
Whaaaat!? 🤦🏻♂️
@@RobertWelsh I couldn’t believe it when I saw a tik tok about it until I checked for myself, it was shocking
I don't know how much truth there is in this, but I recently read an article about clothing. It was saying the designer labels use the same factories in China. So that same factory can sell the exact same product, for a lesser price, it just doesn't have the name brand label is all.
Top designers generally use much more expensive fabric than cheap designers, plus the cut is usually very different. Some clothes may be sewn in factories in China though....
LOVE your channel so much Robert! Love your deep dive videos, especially like the rise are fall of Mac. Would love you to do more videos like that ❤❤ this video was so interesting, Shein seems to be taking over the online shopping world 😩
I was browsing looking for a purse I would like and found a website where a purse caught my attention and I checked if SHEIN had it, because I have found that a lot of purses from Amazon and Etsy are actually from SHEIN, turns out the $79 dollar purse was only $7 at SHEIN 🤨 I’ve also found earrings being sold on Etsy for a higher price than what SHEIN sells it for.
Netflix has a documentary on this subject. It's called Broken and counterfeit makeup and the issues it can cause.
It's like selling on Amazon Marketplace or Walmart's equivalent. The US version doesn't seem to have a $2 million minimum.
Earliest I've ever been 😂 Also are we surprised that SHEIN is doing whatever they can to find more junk to sell 😅
I just got a SheIn ad before the vid started. 🤣
I buy stuff from SHEIN sometimes but when I saw they are selling luxury stuff I was wondering about it , I’m like WTH is going on
Good information! I'm a trusting soul and would not have suspected anything hinkey if I saw multiple brands including high-end available for sale. I am probably now going to be even more cautious when buying products on-line.
I only bought a liquid blusher that was pretty good. I didn't have any issues or skin problems, but I never bought anything else either.
This reminds me when I was a kid I would buy knockoff products, not to use, but for my shelves in my bathroom and bedroom
Shein sells the products on the backs of poor workers I refuse to buy from them
SHEIN has recently allowed 3rd party sellers on their platform…. It’s basically like eBay now where you can buy products from known brands sold by 3P sellers.
Everything i needed for my sunday, a new video from Robert✨💜
Hope you had a good weekend!
omg, this is top notch journalism! thank you for your effort!
Actually, it’s really not. Because he’s wrong.
Thank you for looking into this more for us & helping educate us more.
literally i love you robert
🖤🖤🖤🖤🥹
I know clothing on Shein was found to havr INSANE levels of lead in them, even their childrens clothing. Its in the dyes so it doesnt wash out either. I wouldnt touch anything from any of these cheap websites either. They have a pop up shop in my area (vancouver bc) and im so disgusted
Robert may not judge you, but I will. I also refuse to buy from Amazon, so...
A lot of items on amazon are from China. You see the same things on amazon then on sein and temu.
Yes it’s very true it’s “drop shipping”
I'm kinda broke but you know what? Nothing will ever make me buy from shein, makeup or clothes, I don't understand how people justify it. There's places to get clothes for cheaper anywhere else but maybe that's my country (in SEA) and tbh makeup is not that expensive as long as you're not aiming for branded stuff
I agree with you! I get my makeup from Korean brands and Chinese brands (only those listed in Chic Decent website... those which have extremely low prices like RM3 for a foundation, hell nah)
Same with skincare, except I got those from local and again, affordable Korean brands which aren't that hot on social media sites. I just see whatever ingredients work for me and stick to the same products for now.
Not me getting a Temu add at the end of the video 😂
Real😂
😂😂😂
Robert 🥰💝💝💝I love your uploads eeekkk you never fail to make me smile your amazing!!! Me and my wife love you so much!!! Xx
Thank yooooou! 🖤🖤🖤
NOOO I GOT A SHEIN AD BEFORE THIS VIDEO!!!
Yeah, I tried Shein once. The clothes were awful quality and the fit was also terrible. I vowed never again, and then as I learned more about these fast fashion, dupe/ripoff companies, I was glad I never looked back. The clothing at least was not even worth the cheap price for me.
Of all these dodgy sites I only buy from temu.
I buy crafting stuff and the occasional cat toy.
I did buy a lipstick recently but it was because I loved the tube it came in. I removed the bullet, disinfected it and the replaced the bullet with a legit mac lipstick.
My opinion is, anyone buying cheap makeup (that’s not essence, e.l.f. Or nyx or somesuch) is nuts. Don’t risk your health for money.
Here's the thing, mall pulls out old products from shelves at least monthly. Those products end up in warehouses where people can still buy in bulk. I do buy stuff from sellers who does this in TikTok shop, they are legit, they even still have the barcodes from the mall they came from, but just be aware that these products are old stocks, not necessarily expired, but VERY CLOSE. They have at least 6 months to one year before the expiration date.
this reminds me of the fake cosmetic documentary I saw about the kylie lip kits. Some poor girl got one and the gloss turned out to be super glue, or some sort of glue. Her lips..... ouch
It’s funny to hear fast delivery when it takes 3 months for it to deliver to my city 😅
Now i bought clothes from shein once and let me tell you i would never buy something to put on my face like skin care or make up from them. Especially in the wake of all their issues
I've bought makeup from Shein countless times and it's always been authentic! Love their variety and quality!
Robert pleaseeee do a video with James on buildin an affordable Skincare and Makeup set for 2024 😭 im broke and my beauty products are all expired
LOVE your videos!!! I could listen to you talk all day!!! Your voice is so soothing to me! ❤️ My kids have ordered clothing & accessories from Shein before (nothing makeup, skincare or perfume wise though) & they liked their stuff, but I personally haven't tried anything from them myself. Happy Monday, Robert!!! ❤
Fake make up brands is also a problem on one of SA's biggest online retailer Takealot.They have different sellers selling for them,a lot of the make up and skincare is fake.Learned my lesson,will never buy any beauty brands online unless it's from the brand itself
This eyeshadow look is mesmerising
Algorithm 👍🏾 But why did they sell this to me?! I don’t know I’m not a criminal 🤭🤭🤭
i work in costumer service in one of the LTD's you've mentioned,and got a few also asking about Shein and responded them same,we can't know it's ours 😅
better to avoid purchasing from them
Even ordering from Amazon, I wouldn't for any popular products that are potentially counterfeit. As a former hairstylist, I had clients buy from Amazon and tell me the products didn't really work as well, or even smelled completely different. I had one bring in the product and it looked EXACTLY the same as one from the company. So I think they're out there producing some really great counterfeit products. The funny part, is that it wasn't even cheaper on Amazon, no clue why she bought that.😅
Got my Tom Ford lipstick from Shein, compared it with my counter-bought one, it's legit! Don't knock it till you try it!
Ohhh look out they've planted their crap on Amazon. I was shopping for lip/cheek tint and clicked on one and it took a minute to realize it was shein
I love how much awareness you’re bringing to this kind of issue. People are always trying to save money where they can these days and I can see how many consumers fall into this trap. I’ve never shopped on SHEIN or will I ever! But thanks for this ❤
I can't believe anyone would have thought it was real!
I've purchased some items from them but only specific items Definitely not the counterfeit items. Dupes yes but not counterfeit.
I am SO SICK AND TIRED of so many freaking scammers in this world. There are people who literally go to a job every day, a job to just scam people out of their hard earned money. It’s unbelievable! It p**ses me off so much. I hate hate scammers. I know so many people who have gotten scammed from buying things online, and it’s terrible we have to be constantly skeptical because of so many scammers. Ughh! 🤬 Why don’t they get a real job, making an HONEST living, like normal people? 🤬 Jerk-offs
Amazon is getting just as bad. There are so many fake products and fake “stores” on their website. When it first launched I never had to worry about getting fake products. Now I practically have to be a private investigator just to make sure products are legit, and place and order
I don't purchase anything from Temu or Wish, and once purchased from Shein before I knew more about them. Just 2 dresses. They were ok. Can get same at H&M, Forever 21 or Rainbow.
"i don't know, i'm not a criminal, i don't know" love it
It’s like when people buy brands that don’t officially sell on Amazon. It’s vendors who buy or find products that dropped off a truck 😅. Buying makeup and skincare on Amazon is too risky, unless the brand officially sells on Amazon. Check a brand’s retailer list. I used to buy makeup on eBay (don’t judge, it was in 2012-14). I remember buying a sample of Ben Nye banana powder aka someone putting it in one of those small MAC type sample containers.
Lol I got a SHEIN ad before your video started
I feel like a stalker being this early.
🫶 you Robert
It’s great to be early!
I've only used shein for homeware, but I'd probably only use the makeup part for tools/brushes
I was on the other day and saw benefit hula!! I was like wtf so searched benefit and loads came up but were around the same price benefit charge I was so shocked to see them on there!!
The irony of me getting a shein and temu ad before this video...😅
I have buying skincare products from SHEIN a few times…and there are not bad and I always making sure that it’s gentle as possible….i have try to find the brands you are talking about and I can’t find them on the app…😳🙈and I have began to buying and testing skincare from Temu when there have larger selection then SHEIN
I agree!!
tbh i've never bought cloths or makeup off the sight only house wear products xx
Wow I bought from strawberry net over 10 years ago. Can't believe its still around
Always brightens my day ❤ and looking stunning !
I think the right pronunciation is She In, because it used be called She Inside
I ordered some of those wristbands that absorb water so you dont get everywhere when you wash your face from Walmart. Its been weeks and its almost here, so i saw where it was coming from on my USPS account, and its coming from alibaba. Im so bummed i gave them money, cuz i really dont like supporting sketchy companies like that🤷♀️
Hi Robert.... I GOT TRICKED ON THE SHEIN WEBSITE. I THOUGHT I WAS BUYING GLO RECIPE WATERMELON NIACIN DROPS. OBVIOUSLY IT WASN'T IT WHEN I GOT IT BUT IT LOOKED EXACTLY LIKE THE SAME BOTTLE AND EVERYTHING WHEN I GOT IT... I WAS SO DISAPPOINTED I WON'T NEVER SHOP THERE AGAIN
A few days ago I googled a jacquemus purse and was shocked to see a listing by SHEIN on there with the purse. I clicked on it and I think they had it listed at like $300, the original is $900 if I’m not mistaken. I was wondering what that was about.
I haven’t bought from SHEIN, but I would advise people to also be cautious when shopping on Amazon. I used to buy practically everything from Amazon, but I’ve become more careful. There are so many people selling junk out of their garage. It’s not necessary fake items. If you read the reviews, a lot of stuff is expired and damaged, or used and repackaged. That’s disappointing if you’re buying a pair of shoes, but dangerous if it’s makeup or food.
I get why people my need to shop at places that provide affordable price points. This, however, is so shady these highend companies do not NEED shein. This feels like swap meets that sell makeup and personal care products.
Just mesmerised by how lovely that eye look was.
I was scrolling thru Shein (aka She-in) this morning, while looking at the makeup, I noticed a lot of high end brands on there. The prices seemed to match or be close to the prices at Ulta, Sephora, Amazon, and other websites. There were a few products listed on sale, but only by a few cents or dollars. Nothing drastic.
I find it hard to believe that name brands would allow their products to be sold on sites like Shein, legally, without some sort of legal contract. Otherwise, there'd be lawsuits on their hands. Nobody would allow their products to be sold by other companies without there being some kind of compensation. Shein is not a factory. They are a distributor, not a manufacturer. In other words, they dropship. They get their products in wholesale and sell them online and/or in stores. You can buy these high end brands all over, mostly online, or at Ulta and Sephora. Regardless, they're all made in China factories. So I don't see what the issue is.
