Eh, not gonna lie. Some of his makeup is decent formula wise and isn’t out of place next to a lot of brands selling for the same price. The colour stories of the majority of his palettes are absolute dogshit though, as are most of the colours themselves. I probably wouldn’t mind them if they had some sort of coherence going on, his newest Cremated one is the only one that doesn’t look like a smashed clown but ehhh...still no suitable everyday wear palette for the common folk, oh no. He‘s special and needs to make special palettes for special people. And the lipsticks are just plain poop.

But yeah, his main fan base truly do consist of middle aged white women who sit around watching tea spill videos all day, scream bloody murder at any beauty influencer blogger type for perceived racism while still lining their walls with Jeffree Star’s tacky and hugely over priced mirrors. He could shit in a palette and they’d still fucking buy it. Truly a sight to behold (I’m kidding, spare your eyes and your time).

He’s probably getting as much fun out of watching makeup communities absolutely crap themselves over all this recycled drama as I am though if his character is what both others and himself have built it up to be like. :story:

Is this seriously the audience? I have more teenagers in my life than middle aged women at the moment and the adult women I do know are too busy being non-shit moms.

It's mostly teenagers yeh, idk where they're getting middle aged women from? I've seen some old women on youtube who collect his shit but they are obviously outliers and aren't representative of his fanbase OR of most middle aged women lol.
 
His primary market are people who experiment with color stories and attend yuppy festivals like Coachella.

No one actually wears this in their everyday lives.

I’ve never understood this. Other than Jawbreaker, I’ve thought his color stories look like something a blind person throwing darts at color swatches would pick out. Especially Blue Blood and Conspiracy. Blue is hard to pull off and it’s not an every day look. I’ve virtually never seen anyone wearing blue eyeshadow as like a day look. And the colors in Conspiracy don’t make any sense together. Why spend that much on a palette just to need colors from another palette to make neon yellow work? Lol? I remember watching the episode of the “documentary” where he was moving the samples around and everyone was watching him like they were seeing DaVinci painting in real life.

Why spend 1K on a fake Birkin when you could get a custom-made leather bag for probably less?

I know we’re getting kinda off topic but I’ve seen fake Birkins for less than $300 that look really good and nobody who doesn’t regularly see real Birkins would know the difference, they’re even made out of real leather. The trick is getting people to believe that an average person owns a bag that is easily worth more than their car.

I've tried a few j* products and tbh, they're fine, but not life changing. The best one is the beauty blender sponge from the morphe collab. It's good, but just a pink version of morphes usual blender.

The worst part of the conspiracy collab was Shane in the adverts. Literally lipstick on a pig. Dont give me close ups of him modeling the gloss with his mossy yellow teeth, damn.

The wording of morphes statement was sus, ceasing commercial operations with j* cosmetics. Words matter. And are used with deliberate caution in cases like this. He may not be a co owner of morphe on paper, but I 100% believe hes got his crypt keeper fingers in that pie

I don’t believe Morphe when they say J* has no investment with them. If they get caught out lying it could be bad news for them.

J* should have just used Shane and his conspiracy videos as a “muse”. Let him help pick colours for the documentary too. But don’t try to sell him as a beauty guru or makeup wearer. I really doubt anyone bought the palette because they saw Shane’s four messy self inflicted looks.

Yeah. Well, obviously not his entire audience but there are huge offshoots in the makeup community filled to the brim with older ladies who seems to be more attracted to all the bright colours and “SLAAAY QWEEN“ drag culture. A couple of Facebook J* communities (Some with well over 30k members) have basically imploded over the last week or so though, rebranding themselves as general make up groups rather than J* related ones. I’d have thought that he’d basically have the same type of fanbase as JC so I was honestly a bit surprised to find these massive groups of older women in clown makeup.
Assuming they segregated themselves so they could have their ~safe space~ since he’s been such a polarising figure in the makeup community in general for awhile now.

Fuck yes, I couldn’t agree more. The dude needs to stay far, far away from any form of makeup for public health and safety reasons. All the airbrushing in the world didn’t even come close to helping him either. My eyes, they burn.
