Stop with the nonsense. What he did was inappropriate but if you think that’s actual grooming, you’re the problem along with the rest of the idiots who label everything as grooming.
years ago now. I think they're referring to that weird little mantrum he had on Twitter when Marlena was announced for a makeup episode in a docuseries with Netflix and James was like "IT SHOULD BE ME!" Basically, they picked Marlena because not only was she an innovative beauty influencer (and one of the firsts) but she was also a brand owner at the time. @@prg4647
Marlena has been called out for not disclosing sponsorships and affiliate links according to FTC rules. She has blocked people on twitter for politely responding to her post moaning about this (she called it people creating drama, when they had really just mentioned it...). She does not declare affiliate links correctly (putting disclosures at the bottom of a v long description box, and after the links, sponsorships are not disclosed in audio of the video, just with the automatic banner, and sponsorships are only disclosed in the description box once you extend it (should be visible without extending the box). She's also been very rude and unpleasant to people about this. I deplore all of Jaclyn's actions and behaviour and do not support her in any way, but holding Marlena up as some kind of moral god is ridiculous.@@Abcdefghiiiiii
lmao L to the people who were still investing money into James "I'm sorry to the children, I was super desperate" Charles. It's hard to feel bad for the people who bought into this.
Absolutely ridiculous that people care more about shipping more than the fact that he's a predator. Also, the fact that he did the same thing with his merch.
Very sad these are probably the people that either were fans of him that gave him a pass or weren't fans but still ignored what he admitted to and this is what's disappointing and off putting to them 😒
It's just another case of people only having an issue with someone once they affect them. A huge lack of morals and empathy. Same reason why non-PoC can look past a creator saying racial slurs.
Girl are you new at the internet? Dont you know how things work here? People can talk all day but at the end of the day its all business, unfortunately.
I feel like when ever beautubers say theyve been saying theyve been working on a product for YEARS and want to make sure everything is "perfect".... the launch is always so messy
Probably bc they didnt buy his stuff (or just signed up for a PR package) with the intention of supporting him. They just wanted the product, or at the very least, they wanted to test the product so they can talk shit about it online and get engagement from. Like cmon, dont be naive. We all know how the internet works. People can talk all they want but at the end of the day, its all business, unfortunately
The only make-up reviewer & artist who managed to review the yellow shade was Skelotim, and yes, it flaked and he hated it, and compared it to the formula of Halsey's about:face color paints and the formula is much better, and at a right price because a little goes a long way, worth the watch
Yeah, I don't ever believe these "we are sold out so fast" claims, it's a common marketing tactic to manipulate the website on how much stuff has left to make people buy faster, when in fact he could have sold like 2 items. Also, if you STILL support this guy, you get what you deserve, sorry not sorry.
It honestly sounds like a Kylie 2.0. He could've created this false sense of urgency - which in hindsight makes no sense, as he announced a restock shortly after many shades "sold out"
@@Cherryvelvettt yeah, last year I dressed up as Shrek for Halloween and I bought some green face paint from there... My face was a cracked mess a couple hours later and I was shedding green everywhere 😫
He’s probably doing drop shipping(I think that’s what it’s called). Where he doesn’t order from the manufacturer until he gets his orders from customers in. It takes weeks and atp it’s a preorder.
What? Didn’t expect this big of launch? Wasn’t the last video saying how he knew he would sell out so they already ordered more product before it even launched? Sounds like a lie sis
Yeah come on he wsa lying in the introduction already, saying he'd been working on this for years....when those paint things only just became a trend. Same as his pallets, looking like every rainbow palet out there. Yet kids still think it's all amazing. At some point you are just asking to be scammed.
I really don’t know why people are talking about this product like he invented it. Danessa Myricks has been selling her color fix product for years!! Hers is phenomenal, you can get it in different finishes and it drys down without flaking or cracking! And she ships her orders!!💕
I feel like for 4 years, this is unacceptable. That's why you have to test the products repeatedly. On different skin types. Different Temps. He would have experienced some of these issues first hand with proper testing 😬 It's giving rushed.
Yes! You’d think with four years being put into this brand that would have been something he considered doing in especially since that one of the biggest factors.
This is all a karma concoction. People who support JC deserve to lose their money and don't receive the product, the same way JC deserves to not have success in his endeavours as an influencer.
There’s an Australian artist I enjoy who puts out t-shirts of his art. He does “pre-orders” which means he only makes what people order. So it takes time and he’s up-front with that. It’s always high quality screenprints. The shipping from AUSTRALIA is cheaper than I expected too (WAY LESS THAN $30!) And I get the shirt in like a month. What is James doing 😭
This is really common. I’m an avid paper planner user and the company i got my planner from for next year did the same thing. And they’re very up front that it will take months for orders to ship (i ordered in July and planner are set to ship in October).
@@missdella4990 His work is a little crude and punk-ish, as evidenced by his name: FUCKYOUBAKER 😅 I’m actually wearing one if his designs today. I originally followed him in Tumblr back in the day
@ninahouck2414 I know. But unlike with debit cards, credit cards funds get returned to you immediately and interest gets refunded as well, if after the investigation they find out the dispute wasn't upheld they will charge your account for the amount again. With debit cards, you will not see your funds until *after* their investigation is concluded. So if someone charged their purchase on their debit card in this case, not only would they have waited over 20 days for a product that they still don't know an eta for they will now have to wait for an investigation. I suggest speaking with your bank/s to get more info on their dispute policies and procedures, though, since not every bank is the same. 🫶🏽
@@ninahouck2414 yup that's what I did. asked for refund with no reply so I just disputed it. granted painted can dispute the claim but i got proof sooo.
This is hilarious! Didn't he recently pitch a fit about people 'Not deserving to be in the beauty industry" because of receiving a PR package that was accidentally sent with empty containers?! 😂 Now he's sending out bad products if ANY, and this was his move to usher in his un-cancelling🎉
To think he held off from releasing a brand back in his height of fame because he wanted to release the best he could. I don't see the logic in launching it at this state since at this point it probably wouldn't have done any harm to wait longer. This brand has been such a mess since the announcement and now he's just disappointing the leftover fans that for some reason stuck around 😬
I want to take Jeffree and Shane’s launch into account. It was massive, and planned in 1 year. Jeffree literally shut down his other companies for more shipping and James hyped his up for literally years and the day it happens he’s like “oh I never thought it be this big” GURL WHAT USE YOUR BRAIN
I was gonna comment. I’ve bought from Jeffree on multiple launches, day of and have literally never waited 3 weeks. A week maybe but even then, usually it’s very fast turn around.
Yep my Jeffree products ALWAYS came on time if not earlier than expected & have been amazing. I own all of his eyeshadow pallets, highlights & concealers and have zero complaints 🤷🏻♀️ James eyeshadow pallet wasnt *terrible* but took forever also and these paints just remind me of a tacky knockoff of the about face face paints
I totally agree with that creator, if you're paying that price you shouldn't need another product to make it stay- let alone a product from a totally different brand. It'd be different if Charles sold a setting spray along with this launch but that hasn't happened.
A friend ordered this for her daughter’s birthday party to use as face paint for the kids. She said she ended up having to wash the kids faces and flushing their eyes after all the kids were crying and complaining about “stuff” in their eyes. I warned her but she found out the hard way.
Yikes! 😬 There were reports early on that they used pigments that weren't eye safe, so perhaps this is an example of how serious it really can be. It's a sad situation because nobody should have to deal with make-up that could be potentially dangerous to the eyes! I hope no one had permanent damage. Poor kids!!😔
@@ambersmith2612lmao be for fcking real. Regulations with certain pigments and ingredients are for safety. It isn’t about anyone’s country being “behind”. Jesus. 🤦🏻♀️
Idek why people put so much trust into that weirdo anyway. James really needs to just let it go at this point, because as far as I'm concerned that launch turned out to be a disaster. Not even sure why people still supporting the man, like did they really forget he took down his taking accountability video of him admitting to texting minors? Like why people continue to support these creeps? Guess the world will never know the answer
My bosses are the owners of a small business and if there's any problem (due to staff being sick or anything else) they'll do all the work by themselves untill it's done. They work in the stores, they pack the products, they deliver, they wash the dishes, they simply do everything to keep they're business running. James is posting on tiktok...yeah...
I swear the only truthful review was from skelotim and the yellow cracked and flaked pretty bad. The about-face ones are more pigmented at a better price, and also owned by a better human 😅
I love how he didn't have enough time to correct the yellow shade when he was supposed to lauch his brand 4 years ago!! anyway I would NEVER buy from a groomer
Kyndall did a pretty throughout and fair review and she was just the tip of the iceberg from what has surfaced about Painted. Now I get that new businesses usually have problems with their first launch but considering Jaclyn's infamous lipstick fiasco that James would have taken shipping and formula issues into account before launching.
Question to consider. Where were James's products produced? Are they possibly made at the same lab as Jaclyn's lipsticks? Wouldn't that be an interesting theory.🤔
@@kladies3021 Wouldn't surprise me if that was the case, Jaclyn's lab was called out for multiple health code violations before and after her line came out and they were located near LA and James did say that the lab he used was near his home... In LA.
First, James is a pdf-phile. Second, what would setting spray have to do with liquid pigments smudging. If anything, maybe putting a powder shadow over it? Third, JC is a pdf-phile.
The responsible and professional thing to do in that situation, would’ve been pulling the yellow from the launch and maybe launching it with a restock of the remaining colors later on. Launching a product that still has formulation issues just weeks before the launch, is such a bad idea🤦🏼♀️
I was almost about to say, “well he’s not customer service that’s actually not his job”, and I don’t care about him at all. But then I heard the excuse of “not being prepared for such a big launch” and that’s just insulting his audience’s intelligence. Why wouldn’t he prepare to ship the amount that he had in stock?? That’s absurd. It looks like Marlena *cough* THAT woman, is having the last laugh. Had JC not insulted her maybe she could’ve told him about his sh*tty lab and he wouldn’t be I. This situation now 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
There's so many other brands with the same product that work sooo well.....but nooo...people prefer to spend their hard earned money on crappy products because he's a famous influencer so I don't feel bad for anyone that's losing their money on less than average, overpriced product
JC is struggling to send the orders, because he had a small amount of product available, he needed the money from the customers in order to pay for the rest of the product needed, to fulfill his orders and cover the POs. There is no reasonable for an order to not be sent after 3 weeks...except if the product hasn't been made yet.
i‘m trying not to be rude but i fell absolutely zero bad for the costumers why supporting him at the first place when knowing everything that had happened absolutely no understanding
I know it has nothing to do with it but i find it hilarious that Marlena ALWAYS knows what Labs are used. Is it public information? Dont those labs have to sign NDAs and stuff? I know people will still talk but how is she always informed lmao
I think is because she researched sooo much when she was putting Makeup Geek together and she has good connections on the make up production world so that's why she knows everything and everyone.
@@MarlenaStell Thank you for replying, lil fangirl moment here! I just found it funny (and so helpful to expose them, especially after treating you so poorly). ♥ So please... keep going 👁👄👁
It’s their own freaking fault! I don’t feel sorry for them. Only an idiot would order from an influencer on launch day. They should be ashamed of themselves instead of showing their faces to be turned into memes for stupidity!
I dont even hate on James anymore. I hate on his supporters because they are the ones that excuse and enable his behaviour. I have very little sympathy for these customers.
First off the guy is a freaking creep and predator. Did anyone stop and think maybe he’s getting what he deserves? This influencers should learn from other influencers mistakes, and they should really stop trying to launch these companies and products this way. It ends up being a dumpster fire every freaking time.
I am SO SO SO tired of literal makeup reviewers having to apologize for their honest "negative" reviews because people will get offended. Everybody wants every single review ever to be 100% positive.
_Just a side note: Makayla has posted a short recently using the black shade of painted. She doesn’t mention what she’s using tho during that portion. But the parts are cut & out of order. I’m guessing her YT shorts are from TikTok? I don’t use TT, so IDK for sure._ 👍🤓❤️✌️
If you purchased them and if you have a mixing medium such as Duraline (from the brand Inglot) I suggest trying to mix duraline in the paints. I didn't purchase these paints myself and haven't tried this out, but just knowing that Duraline can basically revive anything, maybe it also can save the paints and your money.
I wish I could say I was surprised, but I’m ACTUALLY surprised that people didn’t check the ingredients lists against that of the FDA, especially after many releases by industry experts demonstrating concern about the alleged lab and ingredients
I remember when James Charles called Marlena ‘’that woman’’ 🙄 I am glad that Marlena is getting her redemption. I am looking forward to seeing what her next brand is, and hopefully I’ll be able to support it.
The fact that people are pressed and regret ordering in the first place but have no regrets about supporting a guy who likes underage boys.......I mean 🧐
I’ve bought some of these before I found out he was a groomer. I ended up not liking the product. I am a big texture person and every time the product touched my skin I hated it, the colour wouldn’t build. Now I do get it sometimes colours don’t don’t build up. But it was a dark colour, and dark colours often build up very quickly or they are always really pigmented already. I did managed to get a refund but my lord
@JamesCharles that young man that STILL supports you AND speaks highly of your products AND didnt drag you to filth AFTER waiting weeks for YOUR products he's already pd for outta pocket for DESERVES to have that painted bucket FULL of goodies you gave out to your MILLIONAIRE friends....🤷 I'd treat someone that STILL supported you after EVERYTHING thats happened like GOLD!! Just M.O though.
Wow, it’s almost like James is an untrustworthy, shady person who doesn’t really know what he’s doing. Who knew, huh? 🤷♀️
I think a lot of people did…
Bingo
It’s almost like people shouldn’t trust what he says because his actions always out him as a manipulative and selfish person 🙃

I swear the only truthful review was from skelotim and the yellow cracked and flaked pretty bad. The about-face ones are more pigmented at a better price, and also owned by a better human 😅
I love how he didn't have enough time to correct the yellow shade when he was supposed to lauch his brand 4 years ago!! anyway I would NEVER buy from a groomer
I don’t feel bad for the people that purchased at all 😂
Kyndall did a pretty throughout and fair review and she was just the tip of the iceberg from what has surfaced about Painted. Now I get that new businesses usually have problems with their first launch but considering Jaclyn's infamous lipstick fiasco that James would have taken shipping and formula issues into account before launching.
Question to consider. Where were James's products produced? Are they possibly made at the same lab as Jaclyn's lipsticks? Wouldn't that be an interesting theory.🤔
@@kladies3021 Wouldn't surprise me if that was the case, Jaclyn's lab was called out for multiple health code violations before and after her line came out and they were located near LA and James did say that the lab he used was near his home... In LA.

The only 3 channels I trust when it comes to spilling tea ❤
Yes!
At this point, I don’t feel sorry for the people who still support James then get scammed.
First, James is a pdf-phile. Second, what would setting spray have to do with liquid pigments smudging. If anything, maybe putting a powder shadow over it? Third, JC is a pdf-phile.
“I love james and i support james” you support and love and a predator? 🙄. Yikes.
From his groomer days to failed business owner
I feel like he is reformulating those paints again and thats why it's taking so long to ship
“Y’all need to leave James alone. He’s changed. He’s going to have a successful launch.”
Everyone else: “are you sure about that?”
You're working OVERTIME to get us this information omg 😲. Thank you so much though, because I wouldn't know what was going on without you 😂
literal years to prepare the launch and he still managed to screw it up ijbol
James having a messy launch is the universe correcting itself finally.
The responsible and professional thing to do in that situation, would’ve been pulling the yellow from the launch and maybe launching it with a restock of the remaining colors later on. Launching a product that still has formulation issues just weeks before the launch, is such a bad idea🤦🏼♀️
If youre still supporting james after all the allegations im side eyeing you. 😅
I was almost about to say, “well he’s not customer service that’s actually not his job”, and I don’t care about him at all. But then I heard the excuse of “not being prepared for such a big launch” and that’s just insulting his audience’s intelligence. Why wouldn’t he prepare to ship the amount that he had in stock?? That’s absurd. It looks like Marlena *cough* THAT woman, is having the last laugh. Had JC not insulted her maybe she could’ve told him about his sh*tty lab and he wouldn’t be I. This situation now 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
There's so many other brands with the same product that work sooo well.....but nooo...people prefer to spend their hard earned money on crappy products because he's a famous influencer so I don't feel bad for anyone that's losing their money on less than average, overpriced product
And a predator which is why NO ONE should support him in ANY MANNER!
Imagine being concerned that you dont get products and not that you buy from a Predator. Sick
Right, these people are insane 😳
30 dollars for shipping?! These people deserve what’s happening to them😂
JC is struggling to send the orders, because he had a small amount of product available, he needed the money from the customers in order to pay for the rest of the product needed, to fulfill his orders and cover the POs. There is no reasonable for an order to not be sent after 3 weeks...except if the product hasn't been made yet.
i‘m trying not to be rude but i fell absolutely zero bad for the costumers why supporting him at the first place when knowing everything that had happened absolutely no understanding
I know it has nothing to do with it but i find it hilarious that Marlena ALWAYS knows what Labs are used. Is it public information? Dont those labs have to sign NDAs and stuff? I know people will still talk but how is she always informed lmao
I think is because she researched sooo much when she was putting Makeup Geek together and she has good connections on the make up production world so that's why she knows everything and everyone.
I think as long as she doesn't mention the lab's name or people's names who work there she can say what she wants.
Because I’ve worked with or been inside most all of the cosmetic manufacturers and consult on the side for other brands 😬
@@MarlenaStellGirl is this the same lab as the fuzzy lipstick flop?👀🫖
@@MarlenaStell Thank you for replying, lil fangirl moment here! I just found it funny (and so helpful to expose them, especially after treating you so poorly). ♥ So please... keep going 👁👄👁
It’s their own freaking fault! I don’t feel sorry for them. Only an idiot would order from an influencer on launch day. They should be ashamed of themselves instead of showing their faces to be turned into memes for stupidity!
Such a sad thought having to wait till its fixed.
Seems like it shouldn't be launched till it's perfect.
Honestly they deserve to get scammed for supporting a predator with their $$$
I dont even hate on James anymore. I hate on his supporters because they are the ones that excuse and enable his behaviour.
I have very little sympathy for these customers.
How are people still supporting him and his brand!! I would be embarrassed to say I love and support someone like him
Its giving Shein quality 😂
Shein is better than that shit 😭
Ok! You know we need an update on this when the customers start to get their orders in, their reviews etc!! Looking forward to it!!!
First off the guy is a freaking creep and predator. Did anyone stop and think maybe he’s getting what he deserves? This influencers should learn from other influencers mistakes, and they should really stop trying to launch these companies and products this way. It ends up being a dumpster fire every freaking time.
Never doubt Marlena s ability to insert herself into every controversial launch. Lol
and i’ll eat it up every time
not the silicone levels 😭
First of all, why are people still supporting James Charles? Second of all, who is paying 30$ for shipping, I’m so sorry. 😭
I am SO SO SO tired of literal makeup reviewers having to apologize for their honest "negative" reviews because people will get offended. Everybody wants every single review ever to be 100% positive.
_Just a side note: Makayla has posted a short recently using the black shade of painted. She doesn’t mention what she’s using tho during that portion. But the parts are cut & out of order. I’m guessing her YT shorts are from TikTok? I don’t use TT, so IDK for sure._ 👍🤓❤️✌️
If you purchased them and if you have a mixing medium such as Duraline (from the brand Inglot) I suggest trying to mix duraline in the paints. I didn't purchase these paints myself and haven't tried this out, but just knowing that Duraline can basically revive anything, maybe it also can save the paints and your money.
I wish I could say I was surprised, but I’m ACTUALLY surprised that people didn’t check the ingredients lists against that of the FDA, especially after many releases by industry experts demonstrating concern about the alleged lab and ingredients
GIRL you are working overtime!! Love you and your sleuthing skills ❤
I remember when James Charles called Marlena ‘’that woman’’ 🙄
I am glad that Marlena is getting her redemption. I am looking forward to seeing what her next brand is, and hopefully I’ll be able to support it.
Honestly, I don’t feel bad for anyone you supports James financially
Basic shipping within the US is 30??? Wth. I ordered tati's palette and the shipping was 9.95 to AUSTRALIA. And i think it took 2 weeks
It's terrible people arent getting things they bought, but also 😬 you get what you get when you deal with shady people
If a lot of people do a claim with their bank for their purchase, I wonder what would happen to his business 😂
The fact that people are pressed and regret ordering in the first place but have no regrets about supporting a guy who likes underage boys.......I mean 🧐
😂 cackling at these people! Can’t support him because their product didn’t come, but not because of the grooming
I saw Skelotim's video and saw Marlena's comment. Thanks a lot for picking this comment and being the first one to point out this issue.
About Face by Halsey really has incredible liquid paints. Just use those
The fact that people are buying products from a groomer astounds me .
that’s what y’all get for supporting him
How tf have influencers not learned from other influencer’s mistakes yet?! How hard is it to find a reputable company to deliver the goods?!
Our Tea Sister is spoiling us with content the last days 😭💕
It just needs to disappear already
I’ve bought some of these before I found out he was a groomer. I ended up not liking the product. I am a big texture person and every time the product touched my skin I hated it, the colour wouldn’t build. Now I do get it sometimes colours don’t don’t build up. But it was a dark colour, and dark colours often build up very quickly or they are always really pigmented already. I did managed to get a refund but my lord
But didn't he make a big deal of personally delivering PR to influencers? So shipping shouldn't be an issue...
@JamesCharles that young man that STILL supports you AND speaks highly of your products AND didnt drag you to filth AFTER waiting weeks for YOUR products he's already pd for outta pocket for DESERVES to have that painted bucket FULL of goodies you gave out to your MILLIONAIRE friends....🤷
I'd treat someone that STILL supported you after EVERYTHING thats happened like GOLD!!
Just M.O though.
almost 5 days of daily uploads, we're sipping good this week 🍵 thank you TeaSpill !
Even if I did want to buy this, I’d be too embarrassed to tell anyone I did lmao
