I’m more suspish about her “Christian charity” where she gets tax free “donations” aka tax evasion for the already rich.
Yesyesyes
ooh what? pls explain
YES omg I wish Smokey Glow would do a video on that!!
@@sugglet36 Look up "LIPSTICK GATE & Capitalism, A Love Story" by the channel Maggie Mae Fish. She explains everything in detail.
Huh? Which charity?
The fact that she thinks that most people would want to buy MORE lipsticks after her first saga. Why would I gamble with 20 dollars for a liquid lipstick when I could get a great one for 10 dollars that I know doesn't have mold?
With liquid lipsticks it's much harder to see if there's a defect or issue with the product. It's in a concealed tube & the product get mixed up. No body can visually see much except for what is on the small applicator lol.
Ooh which liquid Lipstick do you like for $10 that you're referring to? (If you don't mind sharing)
But she does know there are people who will support her and these products are for them.
For sure! Maybelline's Superstay is an obvious classic, but Nyx's soft matte lip creams are also great. For under 5 dollars, my favorites are Revlon's Ultra HD Matte Lip Mousse and Wet and Wild's Megalast Liquid Catsuit. An honorable mention is Ofra's liquid lipsticks because while they are technically 20 dollars, they are constantly on sale for only 6 or 8 bucks.
@@aubreywayne5135 yes, definitely Revlon has some great lip products.
I've seen so many comments saying OMG we need to stop tearing women down and support a woman owned business. Which I agree and there more honest brands owned by women I support. This isn't about Jaclyn being a woman. It's about her not being honest and her willingness to do anything to make money
Exactly, there are so many better businesses created by a woman. You don’t have to raise up all women! Especially if they act shady. For example, Shallon Lester is another one I wouldn’t support.
I absolutely agree! We should support woman owned businesses, and there are so, so many out there (who don't have controversy attached to their brand), why support Jaclyn?
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
We should we supporting business based off their personality, quality of products, and honesty. Not just bc of their gender lol but that’s just my opinion
@@happyperson7663 and your opinion is a valid point. 👌
“She acts like the lipstick situation was something horrible that happened To her!!!” Yes!! I feel like every influencer who gets into a scandal or w/e acts this way!! Owning up to your mistakes is brave people will respect that!
This!!!
Tanacon comes to mind...
Jackie Aina had the best response to this whole situation: stop reviewing and mentioning jaclyn hill launches
👏👏
Seriously!! Just completely ignore her so she can go away
Yeah, I keep putting the energy into this situation and I just need to stop. I truly don't care.
where did she say that??
@@decs357 apparently nowhere
I’m still not over how accurately and savagely you roasted her excuses for the hairy lipsticks last time haha
Haha🤣
Which video was that? The evolution if Jaclyn?
@@ItBeThatWaySometimes can I ask what you mean? Why would the word savage offend you?
@@ItBeThatWaySometimes wow! Sadly, I was completely ignorant to this and I would have never had the slightest clue about the origination of this term. I truly appreciate your kind and respectful way of trying to enlighten others about this.
@@ItBeThatWaySometimes the same to you. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤🤍
all of the bullying that Jaclyn receives is truly at the detriment of holding her accountable. because she gets so much hate over everything she does she’s much less inclined to actually listen to what people are saying and to write it all off as bullying or hate when sometimes it’s not n
💯💯💯💯
Exactly. And if anyone here watched JH’s video she very much acknowledges that she messed up and made mistakes and had the choice to hide forever or move on and no matter what she would have done people would crucify her for it, so she may as well have fun and make things that make her happy. I’m so over everyone crapping all over this woman.
Which is exactly what Hana said in the first 2 -3 minutes of this video.
Bingo. That’s not How you hold a narcissist accountable. They use it to appear victimized.
@@di3486 are you calling her a narcissist? Do you know how rare it actually is to be a legitimate narcissist and not just have traits (which we ALL do)? You can't just throw that word around. Not everyone who handles things a certain way has a personality disorder and this person has a fair point that you completely missed. She is bullied relentlessly. Especially for her looks. Do you think any normal human could handle that? She's constantly put down and is constantly waiting for people to attack her so of course she's going to act this way. Is it okay? Not necessarily, but she's not a narcissist. I don't even care for her that much but I can clearly see what's going on with her because most people in the limelight can't handle it well. Our brains literally can't handle the constant backlash. It's the downside of social media.
As a consumer, I don’t want to buy Jaclyn’s new lipstick without knowing what the hell even happened with the last batch. They *could* be better, but how am I supposed to know that it’s safe to use these lipsticks? She’s needs to own up and explain what happened before I buy something from her.
I kinda wish everyone felt that way... so that she would see people dont trust it or SOMETHING
It’s totally valid to feel that way! And of course the next thought would be not to support it. However, I do think it was pretty clear what happened with the last drop. There was contamination during production and a failure from her quality control team. That’s pretty much it. She addressed it and refunded. I do understand needing more details, but NO company in the market would say anything else. It will just not happen. Maybe the lab even kept some of it confidential to back themselves. I am ok with that and would support again, you wouldn’t and that is the beautiful thing about making our own decisions
Did u not watch the videos she posted explaining what happened ? She changed labs and isn’t working with that old lab anymore. U guys wanna crucify her like they did Jesus
@@EducatedWalrus pretty bold statement my dude
My biggest problem is that, because she has received unwarranted and unnecessary hate, she lumps all valid criticism into the "bullying" category with the hate. Actually criticizing her actions isn't bullying her, but she has victimized herself so much that that is how she sees it, so she just treats it all as internet trolls being mean and ignores it all.
So many influencers and creators do this and it drives me up a wall. I've had very polite comments get deleted and then the creator comes out and says they only deleted hate. 🙄
@@jfm14 Like James Charles, dude literally hired bots to spam positive comments under his videos.
@@jfm14 blame the crazy bullies on the internet. Its their fault 4 being so ruthless
how did we both use the phrase "beating a dead horse?" oh my god
that poor horse at this point 😪
The horse isnt dead tho. The horse is playing dead. Very different x)
Someone needs to stop beating the poor horses.
great minds! 🤓
I can’t support a person like Jaclyn who essentially gaslit her entire fan base into buying more of her products. Like if you want to spend your money on her brand, go for it, but I just feel like she’s very shady with how she went about this. Rewriting narratives is a form of gaslighting. That’s what she does and until she owns up to it, it’s what she will continue to do.
THIS
I agree.
For me, her gaslighting of customers that originally reached out to her about their defective lipsticks is unforgivable. It’s going to always be a nah from me.
same!
So glad you’re saying everything I was thinking. Jaclyn feels like because she loudly says “I admit I made a mistake” that that is somehow equivalent to saying “and that mistake was x, y, z, here’s what happened.” No forgiving and forgetting without any explanations of literally dangerous products she refused to recall.
Literally dangerous? What dangerous thing happened from the lipsticks?
@@blushingmommy She refused to stop the selling of her lipsticks because there was foreign material (mold, hairs etc) in her lipsticks. She should have been responsible, heard the feedback (even if it was only a few people) and halted the distribution of the lipsticks. Just like she says she did when she released the morphe palletes in pr and people complained about the quality. She stopped sending them, halted the release until new batches were created (allegedly). There shouldnt be anything but the ingredients listed in a lipstick. Why is it dangerous? People can have reactions, harm themselves with the material this is endangering the public even if it wasnt as crazy as there being glass in there. 😔
"She walks down hallways with a purse" 😂🤣😂🤣😂
I wish jacyln would’ve just said “sorry guys I fucked up. I don’t know what happened with the lipsticks but it won’t happen again.” People might trust her a little more
She did...
She has numerous times
@@HanHanMC what video? All I’ve seen is her making excuses and saying it’s not her fault
As a business owner, if you are incapable of finding out the various ways that your products were CONTAMINATED, why would anyone trust your new launch? How can she fix a problem she’s unaware of? That doesn’t inspire much confidence.
Why would you ever trust an abuser/narc? She is a narc and abuses her audience.
the only reason she issued refunds was to avoid legal trouble. it had nothing to do with her integrity.
I don’t think their is any way that any of us can know this 🤷🏻♀️. I’m not a jaclyn Stan by any means, but I would never claim to know a stranger’s inner motivation.
@@jenniferbazewhite5201 People repeatedly asked her to and she refused. She kept insisting the products were safe to use and there were no contaminants, that every ingredient was FDA approved, that the white fuzzy fibers were still sanitary. At first, the company was asking people to pay for return shipping and acting like people simply didn't like the product instead of addressing the safety issue. It was only when MANY people brought up a class-action lawsuit that the company changed its policy and gave refunds to everyone. I'm not guessing at her inner motivations, I'm drawing an obvious conclusion from the facts of what occurred at the time. She was incredibly resistant to giving refunds until people kept tweeting threatening to sue and tagging her.
What's popping Smoke Smoke, As a man I will never be down with peeps coming for JH for the things she can't control.
Now as a man who's new to makeup but not naive, she really tried it with this, Like come on sis you should know this ain't the move. It's wayy to soon an zero accountability on her part. In the end her need too be wealthy an a show off is her downfall. (In my opinion)
Yes! I'd personally be fine with the launch if she had a few more products out, after all we can't tell her to never do lipsticks again. But she's only had two other launches, and I don't know if the mystery boxes count as a launch. She literally only has highlighters and the furry lipsticks, and now she tries lipsticks again. There's no space.
Just want to say I love seeing men in the comments section of these videos!
I totally agree! ✨
Off topic but “smoke smoke” is now my new preferred nickname.
@@smokey_glow I support this!! Just plz keep being you, cuz your sickening!!
Samantha ravendahl literally defended Jaclyn hill a while ago and said people were too harsh on her but she can't critique her makeup? People are dumb
right she even said that she ordered a lipstick and she liked it and she used it in a video
But what’s the point of criticizing Jaclyn’s makeup? If it isn’t contaminated, then truly what’s the reasoning behind it? Honestly, I think Sam did it for views because she knew people would be watching. She also owns a makeup brand and if Jaclyn were to come for her, then that would look bad on Jaclyn. But because is Sam then it doesn’t look bad?? Those are double standards. I think Sam sometimes has this “drama channel” tendencies that I don’t understand and aren’t necessarily on brand for her, and I personally think she should stay out of drama instead of looking for it. I’m pretty sure we could have all “survived” without Sam’s review of Jaclyn’s products. We can all survive without hearing about Jaclyn again, Lol.
@@roselynmvm well umm I believe she was criticizing the lack of diverse shades in Jaclyn's new cheek products, which is something I would hope any influencer would do about any brand. This isn't about Jaclyn as a person. If someone owns a brand, I think they are prepared for criticism and should learn from it. Hypothetically, if the situation were reversed, I would be fine if Jaclyn mentioned a lack of diversity in Samantha's makeup line.
@@izzybitsyspider03 none of that is what I was talking about. My point is Sam did it in purpose for views and not for the reasons you mentioned. She KNEW it would be controversial. And she has done that before, and that’s why I noticed this time, because it isn’t her first video in that “style”. I’m criticizing Sam because she did that video with different intentions but she doesn’t get “caught” because she is more likable that Jaclyn, and I don’t think that’s fair, regardless if Jaclyn is at fault or not.
@@izzybitsyspider03 what I’m also saying is, they’re both CZcams influencers that own makeup brands. It could potentially look like Sam is trying to bring down her “competition”, and not exactly showing an unbiased opinion when reviewing those products.
Among “colleagues”, they shouldn’t be trashing each other. There should be some kind of boundaries. If you have something bad to say about your colleague, maybe don’t say anything?!
And like I said, she did this before with another youtuber and on that video, it was more obvious she really didn’t like that youtuber, so I don’t have a reason to think she was just doing “her job” that time or this time around. I don’t think neither of them are fully honest and unbiased 🤷🏻♀️
Honestly I think it’s weird she’s launching liquid lips cuz who’s wearing liquid lipstick these days? However I clicked on her launch video with the optimistic belief that she would at least for the first few minutes say “this is what went wrong with the first release and this is what I’ve done to insure that it will not happen this time” then go into the product schpeel but she didn’t even do that so I clicked out of the video
There are plenty of people who still wear liquid lipstick! She also did address that she has a whole new team of quality control.
I love how you spelled spiel lol
@@jennyhaberstroh5784 ayyyyyeee i tried lol
I thought liquid lips are more popular now than ever .
@@persephonene7421 Honestly I'm not sure how long a lot of people have been in the beauty community so maybe for them personally they are popular now, however for me I have been watching beauty youtube since 2013/2104 and I would say liquid lipsticks peaked in popularity in 2015 or 2016 right after Kylie Cosmetics came out to me, that was the peak of their popularity. A lot of brands that were known for their liquid lips at the time no longer exist because liquid lipstick just became out of style like LipLand Cosmetics. However maybe liquid lipsticks are having a resurgence due to masks and how they are less likely to transfer I'm honestly not to sure about that.
The fact that Jaclyn knowingly put out all those horrible lipsticks let me know that she doesn’t care about her customers and that’s enough of a reason for me to never support her. She’s the only person that’s constantly having horrible launches and that’s not a coincidence. She does it on purpose and it’s disgusting.
Bold statement to say she does it on purpose...why waste money like that? Would be a terrible business plan lol
@@HanHanMC the ONLY reason why Jaclyn still has support for her brand today is because she’s a CZcamsr. Had this been some random brand like Becca, NOBODY would be supporting them after a launch as horrible as one of Jaclyns. No brand would ever let themselves flop again after taking that big of a hit yet jaclyn did exactly that, which makes it so hard to believe that all her bad launches were just coincidences.
@@jazzy4982 flop again? What flop after the initial lip stick? And you’re right, a brand probably wouldn’t survive. Or, they could. We don’t know.
@@HanHanMC stop defending jaclyn lol
@@HanHanMC the vault collection? The undisclosed morphe ingredient changes? just because something sells out doesn't mean it was a good product/release lol come on sis
My whole thing with Sam being called out is that she literally didn’t even say what brand it was when she posted those swatches. Sam was literally being the opposite of petty
The idea that she could be using such a monumental failure of quality control and customer service as a marketing tool now boggles my mind! How???
Also. It’s COVID. No one is wearing lipsticks. Questionable business choices, JUST LIKE AN MLM!
There are tons of people still wearing lipstick especially liquid lipstick!
Now that's just silly. If anything I'm wearing liquid lips even more now, due to the mask mandate. In fact I wonder what the creamy lipstick makers are even thinking at a time like this.
I am 🤚🏻
Probably it's expired made 2 years ago
Jaclyn Hill is almost as polarizing as American politics and honestly that's just incredibly impressive in the first place.
The fact that she tries to portray herself as an underdog is what gets me. I cannot.
You know, she wouldn't be so heavily criticized if she wasn't such a shady person. Full stop, right? She's like the female version of Ben Shapiro. She talks really fast, and is so "I'm so inspiring because I'm so successful...cancel culture blah blah blah....trust me..." if I learned anything from Trump, never trust anyone who says "this is so great, trust me." She really rubs me the wrong way. And I hate that she only comes out of her hole to sell something. I freaking hate when people do that shit.
Smokeyglow didn't state anything that is not aligned with your opinion. Ahe said J shouldn't be criticised for her looks or her relationship to alcohol, but for these shady business things. And when people turn to fatphobic, sexist, stigma against addiction etc... That drowns out the really shady actions.
@@LitcheTheArsm "...didn't state anything that is not aligned with your opinion." I feel like you were trying to say something here, but you're using a double negative, so I'm not quite sure what it was. I didn't say anything about Jaclyn's looks or whatever personal struggles she has. I said she is a shady business person, and is heavily criticized for it. Hannah has gone into depth on this across multiple videos. Also, I don't think you understood my references to the other people I mentioned. I was making a comparison to them, and I understand if you didn't see my point if you don't know who those people are or what they're about.
Thanks to this video, I opened my eyes. Literally reminds me of all the money grab youtubers, can't belive how I'm just now realizing that.
Not me coming here RIGHT after watching Jaclyn’s reveal video 💀
Same here! LOL!
I felt the same about her promo trailer... it *really* rubbed me the wrong way. It's lipstick. You're making lipstick, Jaclyn. You're not curing cancer.
Every single woman who I have seen lean into that “boss babe” bullshit has 100% used their position to take advantage of other women in a predatory MLM etc.
JH gives me cosplay vibes. Her entire aura is giving let’s cosplay a ceo of a company without actually doing the work or being accountable. I can not get past how shady she is.
Nailed it. Acting the part. Exploiting the parasocial nature of people to live out her personal egoic fantasy, 🤮
In one of her apology videos on the lipsticks she said a line that amounted to: "I thought running a company was just waltzing in and throwing my feet up on the CEO desk..." and she seems to have not gotten over that despite what happened last time???
Yes! She only has the selling skills, but not the organizational skills.
I have a theory about why JH has never addressed - and will never address - what exactly happened with the first lipsticks. We all know Marlena Stell aka Makeup Geek had issues with the same lab JH was using for the lipsticks. Marlena even reached out to Jaclyn to warn her about how sh!tty the lab was and Jaclyn ignored her. I think Jaclyn, in all her wide-eyed inexperience, signed an ironclad contract with that lab that was more about protecting the lab’s interests than about protecting their clients. I think she literally can’t say anything without getting sued from here to tomorrow. I think she got in over her head and thought she was this boss-a$$ CEO who could do no wrong and it came back to bite her. Doesn’t make what happened okay, but it would sure explain a lot. It will be interesting watching where her brand goes over the next few years.
She said she changed labs. And that in the old lab they used gloves that had fibers on them that’s why they transferred onto the lipsticks. End of case go google her videos and stop asking questions that she has already addressed
The part that absolutely murdered me is when she was like “it’s called poutspoken because I’m really outspoken and that’s important to me...” LMAO literally at one point in her entire career has she spoken out on a moral issue that didn’t benefit her bottom line? She has never spoken out in support of BLM, politics, etc. she makes me absolutely sick, especially when there’s you who points out social justice issues at the end of every freaking video!!
I could only watch about 45 seconds of her launch video before clicking away. She is spinning this narrative that something awful happened TO her and she rose above it. When in actuality, she has never taken actual accountability for the situation. It's gross. I used to be a fan of hers but the manipulation is really too much.
Every influencer gets petty criticism. It seems like she deliberately focuses on the typical petty hate every person on the internet gets to distract ppl from actual valid criticism. Am the only person who sees this ?? And ppl fall right into the trap every single time .
Yes but she gets way more than anyone else and that’s just a fact. Anytime she does anything it’s drama.
@@biggnome4653 lol that’s because she’s a dramatic ass person. She treats everything like a big deal (except for what she really needs to admit) and you can tell just from her posts on various social medias. She’s one of those dramatic, overly emotional people who always seeks attention through her dramatic antics. However, that doesn’t warrant the petty criticism people give her (such as constantly commenting on her weight or sobriety etc)
I personally really like that you do single videos thoroughly discussing a topic when something major happens, instead of the more common “tea channel” filler update every other day because it makes it easier to know when we should be really paying attention to something...
Chile I been knew that I wasn’t gonna give Jaclyn’s brand a chance mostly because she had built her entire career off of being dishonest/a straight up scammer, and just because her next few launches have/might come out decently doesn’t change that fact.
Oh thank God because everyone was like "im so excited for these" and I'm like "but... there were hairs immersed in the lipsticks last time and she has never explained anything" she could have caused serious harm to people and then wore a canceled dress and blamed drama channels.
ALL OF THIS!!!
I'm convinced those people are bots or were paid to say that they're excited!!
Jaclyn reminds me of a friend who owns a business (and runs it horribly - she has multiple lawsuits at the moment). She has narcissistic tendencies; she has no remorse or empathy and cannot take accountability for anything. When I think of Jaclyn, this is who I imagine.
Yep
her doing the whole boss babe chanel bag schtick is honestly annoying, it's like "oh look i still have all this money but you should also feel sorry for me but also did you know im a ceo". that feels like the opposite of her learning from her mistakes and holding herself accountable 🙄
WHY should she still be "given the opportunity to create makeup"?? after countless instances of lying to consumers, putting consumers health at risk, and failed launches, why does she deserve ANOTHER pass and ANOTHER opportunity to continue putting out bad, dangerous product and ripping people off when so many indie brands/people will never have the opportunity to have this dream realized and do it RIGHT?
She will never address it. She’s been scamming us since day 1. I don’t think we should expect anything other than that from her. It’s always been lies and blame shifting.
It’s so frustrating that she’s using cancel culture in her favor.
AND the fact that she follows Esther Ensing on her business account is so disgusting.
Can someone please tell me why Jaclyn is still being given chances? Maybe I'm biased bc I was never a fan, but how does she get do-over after do-over???
Stans. On the announcement post for her brand getting in ulta on trendmood the comments were all stans congratulating her.
It's because she's white
It’s unbelievable that someone could sell moldy lipsticks, not recall them because that would look bad and never own up to anything, and STILL be selling makeup like nothing happened
As someone who works for Ulta, I do not feel comfortable selling her products to anyone. If someone comes in specifically for her, that’s fine, but if someone comes in asking about a good highlighter/liquid lipstick, I will not recommend her brand at all. Sorry not sorry 🤷🏼♀️
Her highlighters are great. You're just being petty.
@@Daria-bg3ds I’m not being petty. She’s had such few successful launches, why should I recommend her brand/collaborations over others?
As a makeup line, she was bound to release lipsticks again eventually, but like .... the timing.... I need several more good and consistent launches before I trust her with my lips again
I cannot even imagine supporting her ... EVER! I truly believe she is a consumate narcissist. There are so many other women owned businesses that should be supported. I have heard her make fun of older people, yet, its never mentioned, but then again, I understand that most of her fans may be younger and don't get offended by that. I don't want to support her just like I will never support J Star, J Charles, or any other toxic CZcamsrs whose actions continue to be overlooked, and in some ways ... rewarded.
After the intro, when she actually starts talking she does say that she handled the first lipstick launch badly, but instead of saying what went wrong and what steps she has taken to make things right, she just goes on to pat herself on the back for owning up to her mistakes. It's like...what?
Where would we all be without Smokey Glow during lockdown??? NOWHERE, sis. We would be NOWHERE.
❤️❤️❤️
Hehe, you said “showing growth from the lipsticks”
We all saw the growths coming out of those lipsticks
Girl boss shit is so annoying, promos like that always center the person at the top making the money and not the people working in the warehouses who are actually manufacturing and moving the product -_-
Like does Jaclyn even pay her employees a living wage???
"So we're just pretending nothing happened?!" That's funny. I thought this was a commentary community call out on James Charles. Ah well.
they've all been real silent.
You’re not wrong. I think a lot of people are scared of being “wrong” about James but at this point he’s admitted to at least one major and illegal offense and I don’t understand the silence.
@@smokey_glow Right. A state and federal crime. I didn't mean to derail the discussion here! I just saw the thumbnail and assumed before reading the title in full. Good video on Jaclyn and her questionable antics!
@@smokey_glow I’m not reading or watching anything about James until authorities get involved. I’m not going to make the mistake everyone else did 2-3 years ago.
It reminds me of the James Charles situation. We feel bad for cancelling him so hard the first time that now he can’t be criticized (despite predatory behaviour)
Now that she's in Ulta, if her products find a following there she won't need to explain the failed lipstick launch. Unless you're a you tube watcher, and many Ulta customers are not, they won't care or hear about an old failed launch IMO.
Unless hairs end up in these lipsticks too...
@@minajones8341 🤣🤣🤣
She must need some money. WHY would I buy lipsticks when I’m wearing a mask?! Makes no sense... but whatever get your coin. Her stans will continue to support her no matter what trash she releases 🤷🏽♀️
Other than her lipsticks, the products she puts out haven’t been ‘trash’..but go off I guess 🤷🏼♀️
I think liquid lipstick is smart for mask times, it's either that, a stain, or nothing on the lips, so it's not a bad thought. But she only has one other product, her highlighters (idk if the mystery boxes were limited edition). She just WANTS to do lipsticks and with her reputation... Big no no.
If I was going to wear a lip product it would be a liquid lipstick now.
Most wonderful sound: “And frankly...”
Damn your disclosure at the beginning that this is not about bullying her anything about her personally was so nice to hear. And it made me think--I think Jaclyn struggles to listen to constructive criticism about her brand and her videos because she hears SO many personal attacks about her appearance, she just kind of groups it all together as general negativity that she should ignore.
Yes this sounds about right!
When I saw she was coming out with liquid lipsticks, I honestly saw it as the ball-siest thing she could do after lipstick-gate
Totally agree!
I feel like haf she just sat down and been like "guys im sorry, something was wrong with the first batch and since then i've done xyz to improve. Ulta is giving me a second chance to do it right and to make you proud to own my makeup." UM was that not just the best press release in a random comment you've seen?? Yeah cause its not crying...
she's trying to spin the situation as something that happened to her and not something she did to other people, people who trusted her and who she took advantage of and proceeded to lie to and then she avoided all responsibility for said situation she caused
she doesn't deserve all the hate she gets for stupid reasons...but she also doesn't deserve anymore chances tbh, she's done nothing to earn back trust or respect
OK that is such a good point. She's trying to spin it as something that happened to her rather than something she did. I watched about half of her launch video and I liked that she kind of admitted a mistake but it was falling a little flat for me. I think what you said is why it doesn't feel quite right.
@@11lizgoodall to be fair she is a very good manipulator, she can spin anything really and make it feel subtle.
she had the music, the right phrases to pull at people's sympathy, she brought in young family members and she directly appealed to her fan base as the only source of support in her career. 10/10 manipulation
but she's not the victim, she's the instigator of her own problems and she doesn't get to be absolved from them just because she avoided them for a year and people are mean to her for unrelated things (which she doesn't dserve)
like she literally mocked this whole situation by wearing a cancelled halloween costume? she is not sorry and does not deserve another shot with this brand
The mystery box was 100% a holiday launch. The names of them were all holiday themed. And like you said, goodness she can’t just give a straight answer for anything. Especially when she’s asking for support again after lying and not answering questions for the old stuff.
“Not competing with each other but sharing the love” people 👏🏻 who 👏🏻 should 👏🏻 be 👏🏻 viral! THATS amazing energy
I'm all for giving people second chances when they've shown growth but like you said, I'm over the lying and why bother? There are a million other brands with great products and influencers with way better content.
that pink on you is STUNNING
It’s the bodily harm to fans and customers without any conscious for me.
In her defense, barely any cosmetic companies actually come forward and reveal what a problem with a product actually was. It’s just not the industry practice. I’ve worked for two major companies on the field and sometimes the information won’t even reach teams that aren’t directly involved in the quality control/formulation areas. I was actually even forbidden to disclose that information to them. To put the blame solely on her seems unfair because she was probably strongly (if not legally) advised to conceal that info. When was the last time we had a full report on the causes of quality problems in big companies such as MAC or Nyx? They’re the key players that dictate how the rest of the market should act... Jaclyn is just a very minor component
I dont think lips was the direction a good captain would have steered the ship, cheeks are Jacklyns thang, its what she is known for and, although i havent bought anything from her, i definately would buy her highlighters if I didnt have to pay $US20 because that is a lot of Aussie dollars which I do t have. I think complexion products would have been a better or solid move
I could care less about Jaclyn Hill having her own makeup line, it's all WAY overpriced for me. But I do appreciate how honest you are & keep people accountable for their actions/what they represent.
Personally, there’s something about Jaclyn’s lack of transparency that makes me side-eye her, it’s like, you’re launching new product but not addressing the first launch at all.
Me: Ooo I wanna watch this but I should prob watch Jaclyn’s reveal video first
Also me: *watches 15 seconds of her video, then clicks off and back to this one*
The problem that I have with Jaclyn is the utter lack of transparency. I think that if she were honest about everything, people would support her comeback. But EVERY TIME she comes back with something, she always acts manipulative. I truly do think that she could have come back from the lipstick fiasco if she handled it properly from the get-go.
its like she's trying to start another scandal... LIPSTICKS??? AGAIN????
She would've executed girl boss way better if she'd taken accountability in a manner that made sense
Men in the beauty space are completely free from cancellation. I don't like jaclyn hill but the fact that she was cancelled and constantly criticized compared to Jeffree Star and James Charles just shows how misogynistic the beauty community is.
Really sad how the “girl boss” mentality/attitude attracts SO many other females.
It’s a shame that it’s linked to toxic behaviors and mentalities because we need more women to be bosses.
there's nothing wrong with women being bosses, not every succesful "female" is a scam like JH.
I’m not a girl boss, I’m just a boss.
She said in the promo “own your mistakes” and I was like.... but this is Jaclyn saying that? Lol
Yeah...explaining what happened and talking about what she's learned and how she can assure her customers that the same mistakes won't happen again would sure be beneficial. As it is now, i just imagine the same little hairs and lumps...except this time, it's all inside little tubes, so you'll never see them.
And let's not overlook the shade range of these liquid lipsticks. It's a collection of nudes for like 3 skin tones.
That’s the saddest range of lipsticks ever. On her arm it looks like JH is only releasing two lipsticks!
I agree. Just 2 token dark colours for dark skin.
My theory: she used liquid lipsticks because it would be easier to get away with and not have people put microscopes on them to look for anything sketchy
“She knows how to make good make up when it’s not hairy” 💀
I don't comment often but I completely agree with all of your points about this launch and Jaclyn Cosmetics as a whole. It truly pains me to say this because I learned so much about makeup from her early years videos on CZcams, and just really admired her for a long time. But I do not trust her at all anymore and I would not buy a single product from her brand. There is zero transparency and accountability and I can't support that.
1) I think the Valentines launch was absolutely supposed to be a Christmas launch. With shade names like Tinsel and Flurry..? Obviously not intended for a Valentines launch.
2) Am I the only one who thinks that liquid lipsticks are super 2016? I feel like glosses are much more in right now, and Jaclyn knows that. I feel like the liquid lipsticks were supposed to launch a few years ago when they were more "in".
Okay but you and Abby Williamson posting the same topic at the SAME TIME!?!? need my Friday tea 😌♥️
I don’t even know what to think of JH anymore. All I know is that her entire range is very outdated.
I have so many thoughts on the actual product launch but I literally just forgot to mention it while filming because I was so over it 😂😂😂
SHE LITERALLY SAID OWN UR MISTAKES IN THE VIDEO LMAO what a joke
I don’t trust Jaclyn Cosmetics after the first launch and I really can’t get over and the price point is a little high for me to take the risk of getting a defective product I 100% agree with you if she came out and was just honest her brand reputation would be a lot better
She always talks about death threats etc however I do see a lot of criticism she just ignores and if she genuinely tried to change I think more people would be a fan of her and defend her against the death threats and bullying
I'm excited for her lipsticks. I've never been a die hard Jaclyn fan, but I admire her for getting shit on, and then trying again. Some shades are beautiful, and I am honestly really excited
I will never trust her again to buy any of her products. She’s just too shady to me.
I think JH's products are over priced for Morphie quality.
I never tried her lipsticks but I disagree. Her blushes/bronzers and highlighters are amazing quality. Like hourglass/Chanel quality in fact. They’re nothing compared to morphe
the girlboss ad had the same music and vibes of all antidepressant ads
When you said “JH is launching new lipsticks” I screamed “OOOOOOOOO!!!!” to myself, so I feel that no one in your life caring sentiment 😂
The way Jaclyn has the absolute nerve and the gall to release another set of lipsticks when she never took accountability for her last lipstick launch, I stand firmly in that she should’ve gotten a lawsuit and should be out of business, there’s literally no way this woman should be in the makeup business if she’s that irresponsible and negligent to knowingly sell expired contaminated products and then lie and not even apologize to her customers
I remember her claiming she was using her own money to investigate the bad lipsticks, and then she never mentioned that again ever.
Yes! Thank you for pointing out that bullying is so different from calling out for accountability and that bullying can invalidate critique. It is so important
I remember when she did the grey hoody apology, she actually said she thought being a ceo meant wearing red soles and carrying a designer bag. I guess she's still playing dress ups.
I think if she didn't acknowledge the previous lipstick launch in this new one, people would say she is trying to ignore responsibility. And now that she is speaking about it as a failure, people are upset that she's somehow "using" her previous launch to market these ones. I think people would be upset either way. I kind of feel for her in the sense of not knowing what to do moving forward that is going to satisfy people.
I can understand and sympathize with not knowing how to move forward, but I just personally think that good or bad, it’s always just better to be honest and transparent about things. I think the misleading nature in which she does things is a reason people get upset and frustrated with her
Jaclyn has very high narcissistic traits so, she'll never own up to the totality of her mistakes, ever. Her behavior is exemplary of classic, textbook narcissistic ways.
she has sent pr to amanda ensing so its a haaard pass to me
😐
My thoughts exactly! It's not about the "scandals" it's about how she handled it (or really didn't handle it).
thanks for bringing this up! i had the exact same thoughts when i saw that launch video but nobody seemed to point out that she actually never owned up to her mistakes... the whole ad seemed kinda delusional to me, tbh. like she doesn't even get how it looks to us
She helps to perpetuate the narrative society has about women not being able to objectively be good company heads. Her emotional manipulation is truly nauseating. And her followers are akin to trumplicans, in my mind
I haven't watched the video yet but I clicked so quick... everyone forgot about Jaclyn's mesh mask moment a few months ago too! I'm glad y'all are speaking out about how wild this all is lol!
I love listening to your social/influencer commentary. You are so eloquent and intelligent and I get a lot of insight from your words.
