Jaclyn Hill – Controversy and Scandals

Jaclyn’s new cosmetic line initially met with mostly positive reactions from long-time fans. But later it yielded some criticism for her definition of a perfect nude shade, photos that showed some differences in pigment, and a lack of reviews from others in the beauty community.

On May 30, 2019, she released her 20 nude lipsticks through her website. Despite her product being surrounded by mild controversy, the product sold out within the first day and seemingly proved to be successful. After some time, after the receipt of their orders, customers instantly noticed issues in quality and asserted that their lipstick either arrived melted or broke after a single use.

However, some of the customers defended the brand by saying hot temperatures and shipping conditions were to accuse, many continued to voice more driving concerns on social media. Consumers share many photos on social media showing various flaws in the product, such as air bubbles, gritty texture, hair, and mold.

Then, Hill was quick to deny the allegations by stating that she had not seen anyone criticize. Nonetheless, she encouraged her customers to stand out to her and her team if they were disappointed in any way and promised to either remunerate the customer or replace the product.

After more severe cases of dissatisfaction, the news began surfacing of allergic reactions to the product. Likewise, the user was also getting various symptoms including itching, swelling, redness, and cold sores.

Apologies

Later on June 12, 2019, she addressed the growing concern by uploading a video to her YouTube channel titled “My Lipsticks”, in which she explained the potential causes of damage, extended her apologies to fans and customers, and restated to viewers that she expects to compensate those who share their dissatisfaction with her team.

However, her apologies and explanations were not well accepted by fans, and the YouTube community started backlashing her. Then she deleted her Instagram and Twitter accounts on July 3, 2019, leaving only her YouTube channel available to the public. Currently, all her allegations and issues have shut down, and her social media accounts are back to normal.
