When it comes to the world of makeup, I truly believe there’s room for everyone. Every beauty brand can offer something new to the world, ya know? Also, I absolutely have a shopping addiction so I always say — the more, the merrier!!!!
Jeffree Star is tbh a cultural icon, known for his iconic YouTube career and wildly successful cosmetics company.
Jeffree Star Cosmetics is revolutionary not only in it’s creative direction but in it’s insanely high quality.
RELATED STORIES
Jeffree is known for giving brutally honest makeup reviews on his YouTube channel, which is tbh why people love him so much!
No one is safe from a Jeffree Star review.
In the past, Jeffree has dragged Victoria’s Secret, Too Faced, Beauty Blender and Kat Von D— just to name a few.
Oh, and of course , Kylie Cosmetics.
Who can forget when Kylie Cosmetics released a $360 brush roll that completely SHOOK the beauty community in a ~very~ bad way.
Jeffree’s criticisms included “basic looking,” “tinfoil,” and “Dollar Tree.”
Now when Jeffree reviews something, it either gets his signature stamp of approval or it doesn’t.
It’s a very serious thing for us, okay?
In fact, when you search Jeffree Star and ~review~ on YouTube, most of the titles include “Is It Jeffree Star Approved?”
It’s an ongoing trend for his channel, regardless of the brand, mmkay???
Get it? Got it? Good. This will all be relevant in 2 seconds I promise.
Now, let’s switch over to Lady Gaga real quick.
Lady Gaga announced the launch of her makeup brand this past week, Haus Laboratories.
“This isn’t just makeup. It’s a battle,” Gaga wrote .
“A battle for your life. And I hope this makeup inspires you as much as makeup did when I fell in love with it and it helped me discover myself. I love you. We want you to love yourself.”
The whole thing looks pretty major and I’m super excited to see what Gaga is creating.
I mean, it’s GAGA after all. She’s effing IT!
So when Jeffree Star replied to Gaga’s announcement with “But the question is…Will it be Jeffree Star Approved?” Jeffree’s *true* fans (me) understood what he was saying.
He was just keeping up with his brand and being himself????
Jeffree also said “Can’t wait to see the packaging and try everything on my channel!”
Jeffree’s fans (and me) were like yaaaas!!!!!
However, other people were PISSED OFF that Jeffree would even suggest it wouldn’t be fabulous.
One angry fan said “Sweetie this should be pre-approved.”
People wanted to make it clear they would be buying it regardless of Jeffree’s thoughts.
OKAY BUT I don’t know if I would buy it if it wasn’t Jeffree Star approved, tbh!!!! Am I trash for that????
People didn’t understand that Jeffree wasn’t throwing shade he was simply SAYING he was going to do a review.
He’s not judging Lady Gaga he’s judging her MAKEUP! GAWSH!
Do you think Jeffree was being shady? Let us know in the comments below!
Will you buy Haus Labratories even if it isn’t Jeffree Star approved?
