fenty skin vs. glow recipe eye patches

and to know how much time, money, and effort goes into launching a new product, i fear this could be the worst case scenario for both brands 😭 #eyepatch #eyepatches #glowrecipe #fentyskin #koreanbeauty As someone who works in the beauty and personal care industry, I just saw two of the exact same products launching at the same time. They are both eye patches with a new mechanism that if you twist, a new slice comes out. And I feel like that is really important for people who like hate touching all the eye patches to grab one. User experience wise, I think it's amazing. But it's the fact that Fenty Skin, Glow Recipe are launching the exact same product. One's in pink, one's in purple. And I did see from comments under Lipstick Lesbian's post that Wonder Bath, which is a Korean brand, they also have that already out. So I feel like they can't, I feel like both brands can't say they were the first to ever have this product. So it stems from like them using Korean beauty and skincare innovation there where they keep creating these things and to buy the actual packaging, trademark, I don't know how that works. That probably cost a bazillion dollars because obviously they want to make money and sell it to everyone. But it's the fact that they are the exact same product. One's in pink, one's in purple. And I did see from comments under Lipstick Lesbian's post that Wonder Bath, which is a Korean brand, they also have that already out. So I feel like they can't, I feel like both brands can't say they were the first to ever have this product. So I feel like the pricing is going to be super important because they're the same exact product. So I feel like one can't be like 50 and one can't be like 20. I feel like nobody would buy the 50 one. And I know in Korea, they probably can't tell who bought this product, but I think it's also crazy that both companies probably invested a lot of money into this and didn't know that their semi biggest competitor is going to have the exact same product. Just in a different color. So I'm really excited to see how this plays out. I will be following along because this is crazy. I've seen so many videos of people using the same product. And the slice is coming out. And to know how much time, money, and effort goes into launching a new product, I fear this could be the worst case scenario for both brands 😭
