When I find that foundations have their shades mixed up, I am more inclined to give up on finding my shade and move to the ones that are in a gradient. It feels like they're trying to confuse us into thinking they have a nice shade range. It doesn't work.

[@beautibrew]

I haven't read the full bankruptcy filings that you're referencing mostly because I'm not sure where to find them, but I'm a CPA and former financial auditor and from a financial accounting standpoint "intercompany receivable from morphe LLC" would actually mean the reverse in that morphe owes Jaclyn cosmetics the $7.5M (if Jaclyn cosmetics shows an interco receivable morphe would show a corresponding interco payable to jaclyn c for the same amount). Usually an intercompany receivable for a retail company with inventory transactions would probably arise if one affiliate company transfers inventory to another affiliate company (i.e. JC transferring inventory to morphe to sell in morphe stores) or if one company makes a purchase from a vendor on behalf of the other. My guess would be that a good portion of the amounts due from morphe to jaclyn cosmetics relate to the first scenario where product was transferred to morphe to stock on morphe retail store shelves but then went unsold as of the bankruptcy filing date. I have zero proof of that course, just going off of things I've seen in practice, but it would make sense to me.

My daughter (7) was gifted a kids set of makeup and nail polish and I just let her go crazy with it. She really likes her sparkly green eyeshadow and glitter pink lipgloss. I’m here for it. She’s exploring her creativity and I love it. I remind her every day she’s beautiful, makeup doesn’t define her beauty, and art comes in all forms. I’m not bothered by the green eyeshadow or glitter. Honestly, she motivates me to try bold colors too!! 😂 thanks for the coverage!

[@gabriellestanton6074]

Same! My 7 yr old has been using makeup for at least a year. I have a boxy subscription, so she gets whatever I don't want, and I have bought her profusion and wet and wild. She goes CRAZY with it, black eyes and red cheeks. I'm here for it! Explore your creativity, but if we are going somewhere she knows to keep it "calm."

I’ve been giving my daughter make up I didn’t want from like my Epsie or boxy charms since she was like five years old. She’s 10 now, and still give her things that I don’t want. I don’t let her wear it outside of the house. But it’s something fun for her and I to do together. She’s been watching me do my make up, so she likes to do it as well. and now that she’s older I can teach her the importance of getting into a routine of washing her face and moisturizing etc. It’s kind of a bonding thing for her and I.

Shout out to Öden’s Eye for making their bundle a discount price for all three palettes. I’ve seen a few Indie brands recently (2022 holiday season) that offered bundles but for the same price as if you had bought of those items individually. IMO, if you’re going to make a bundle and promote buying that bundle, there should be an incentive to do so.

[@AKbaby89]

Holy cow! $38 for a single blush?! I thought Haus labs was affordable?? I know everyone has a different idea of what affordable is to them, but $38 for a single blush doesn't seem affordable to me😳

15:24 the concealers formula is dependent on the PH balance and considering no one is experiencing irritation from the acidity of the formula i'm assuming it's simply not high enough to prevent bacterial growth. This is one of the reasons I got really into cosmetic chemistry, I work with probiotic bacteria and I want to understand how to properly formulate probiotic skincare in the future. It's so interesting!

[@C_majuscula]

Yeah this is what happens when you stop using parabens and other biocides/preservatives/antifungals that aren't considered "clean." Yes, there are ways to effectively preserve without these materials, but the pH of the formulation and the temperature that you add the preservative are much, much more important.

[@Steffi.EchoGraphix]

definitely agree on sorting the foundations in order!! i also personally just wish they'd name them what kind of shade they are. if you want to have all the weird ivory names that's fine (as a very pale person) but just tell me which one is light with neutral undertones so i can know which one to get

[@isabellamorris7902]

The one foundation I wear (L'Oreal True Match) lists shades in W (warm), C (cool) and N (neutral) and it is basically the reason I buy it besides the fact that I barely wear foundation at all

[@amymichele2000]

I say give me unclean beauty lol. Idk if my kosas foundation had mold in it but it gave me a horrible skin reaction. I got hives all over that lasted for days and then my skin peeled. It didn’t smell or anything and it started 6-8 months after purchase and the foundation says 12months.

[@soggyfroggy22]

I’m done with the “clean beauty” myself. We need the preservatives in our skincare so we won’t have mold.

[@trishamarie]

I side eye incentivized reviews too. What started making me side eye then, when the Charlotte Tilbury beautiful skin foundation came out, one person gave it one star because it wasn’t full coverage. The product description explicitly states it’s MEDIUM coverage. I hate when people post a review without understanding the product details.

[@Claire_by_the_Seashore]

I agree. Put the shades in order. And if they’re all doing it, then something tells me it’s intentional to 1) make more money and/or 2) hide how terrible their range is.

I continue to be shocked at the prices of makeup now days. Yikes.

[@AKbaby89]

I always review the items I buy because the incentivised reviews always bug me. I see them at Sephora *a ton* and it's so beyond frustrating when a product that hasn't even launched yet has hundreds of 5* incentivised reviews. I cannot even tell you how many incentivised reviews I've seen where someone says "I haven't used it yet, but it's so pretty! I'm sure I'll love it! 5 stars!" Or "I haven't received it yet, but I know I'm going to love it! 5 stars!" And those are definitely the most annoying/frustrating/irritating/pointless to me. Whenever I look at reviews, I only ever actually take into account the reviews that aren't incentivised, and that are also verified purchases. I've literally seen reviews from people who didn't even buy the product, they just saw their favorite tiktoker talking about it so they "had to leave a review" 😳 😒and no, I'm not lying/joking/exaggerating.

[@unmellowyellow]

My Kosas cream blush went bad in less than 2 months…and I live in a really dry climate. I don’t buy anything from them anymore. I personally like preservatives, call me crazy 🤷🏻‍♀️ I tried clean beauty when I got pregnant and ended up with permanent scars on my torso from itching so much…clean beauty is so stupid. As for kids with makeup, my 8 year old already loves it. I gave her my extra Pat McGrath Divine Rose blush; she LOVES blush, lip gloss and highlighter. Oh, and brushing her perfect eyebrows (am legit jealous of her eyebrows and super thick eyelashes, which she obviously didn’t get from me 😂). She does not wear makeup every day, only lip gloss on top of her Coola SPF lip balm (#SunscreenForLife) and she uses K Beauty sunscreen on her face. I have so much fun with her ❤️

[@athena9557]

In regards of the kids makeup, i think thats SOOOOO fantastic!!! My younger brother(9) loves when i wear fun makeup and he loves wearing fun face paints, so having this easy to apply/remove product is!!! A game changer honestly

[@Patriot1789]

My understanding is that the removal of parabens which keep products fresh has resulted in the use of less effective chemicals that reduce the “decay” of products. Companies often hear what consumers want but consumers don’t always understand the consequences.

I even remember vividly her using cake mascara . Now I buy my 7 and 8 year old granddaughters their own makeup and think nothing of it. Nana needs someone to share her art with. 💋🎨

I will not even purchase a foundation or concealer if I have trouble finding my shade. If they can’t set it up in gradient form so it’s easy for the customer then they aren’t getting my money. I’m not working looking through light and dark shades to find mine. I assure you, you are not alone.

Honestly I think a lot of the foundation misordering is so people won't analyze the shade range and call them out. People won't make the effort but when it's a gradient it's obvious when the range sucks but this way it tricks the eye. I also prefer a gradient bc its easier to follow

[@Julia-bl1qp]

Forma/Morphe/Jaclyn might be doing something shady regarding the bankruptcy? Shocking. I wouldn’t be surprised if they were trying to get it done asap in an attempt to hide assets or debts. And the judge clearly doesn’t know anything about Morphe if she thinks they’re going to be honest without being threatened with legal repercussions. I definitely want to hear more about the bankruptcy, and I’m wondering how Jaclyn is going to spin the fact that she doesn’t own Jaclyn Cosmetics. I’m sure her stans will believe anything she says, even though there is solid proof that she doesn’t.

I would have loved that Zara makeup when I was a kid. The freedom to use color and make designs? I would have played with it until middle school. Then I would have started with simple makeup- lip gloss and skincare. Then towards the end of middle school and beginning of high school- lipsticks, mascara, maybe some eyeliner. Then I would have started with the artistic, fun stuff for night’s out at my friend’s house in late high school/ college. I’m a fan of brands doing this.

[@laikanbarth]

I’ve noticed that with brands too. They are mixing up every shade of foundation!! It’s so irritating. I want the foundation lined up in a gradient so if one looks too light I could look at the next one over to see if it might match my skin better. Maybe they are doing it so you pick the wrong shade choice and have to buy another one? I will not buy one at all if I see them doing the foundation shades like this. It’s hard enough for me to find a shade that matches as it is. I feel sorry for people who are new to foundation and trying to find their shade!!

Hi Jen, I don't have all the details, but if it's says Intercompany Receivable from Morphe, then Morphe owes them the money. It it's a receivable on the JC side, and then JC is owed the money. I also hate how brands don't put shades in gradient order, it drives me nuts 🤣

[@lirpa1981]

I write the date I open things on the product with permanent marker. Not just make up and skin care products but also food items. If I’m opening up a new package of lunch meat I will write the opening date on the package. It’s a great way to know how long something has been open. Also products like make up and skin care are transferring bacteria and germs from your face and hands and that can effect the product.

[@janna8147]

FYI, receivable means Morphe owes money to Jaclyn cosmetics :) A receivable is an asset on the books that says a company (in this case Jaclyn cosmetics) has a receivable (money owed to it) from Morphe. It remains a receivable until it's settled, or paid. This could happen if, for example, Morphe sold Jaclyn cosmetics on its site but then didn't pay whatever percentage was owed to Jaclyn cosmetics. Not saying that's the case here, that's just an example.

[@mcColorado4890]

I think I have heard you (or others?) mention that Jacklyn Hill products were sold I’m Morphe stores? If so that is likely one of the big reasons for the company to company transfer of funds from Morphe to J.H. Cosmetics. Or they could have been performing other services for JHC. I have never done much in the bankruptcy space (I am a licensed attorney) but when you have multiple companies under one umbrella, funds going back and forth between the sibling companies is fairly common when one subsidiary performs services for another.

Because I’m so into makeup my daughter who is 5, loves to play with makeup. But I’ve always just bought her own makeup to do whatever with. Usually it’s from Colourpop, but I’m definitely interested into buying from that brand for her.

Interesting to see the revenue of Jaclyn Cosmetics vs the invoices for creating the lipsticks. I don't know how many other launches they did in 2021, but I think it gives us a hint at the profit margins in the cosmetics industry. Cost per lipstick, not even a dollar. Add a few cents for the component and the packaging and they are at cost maybe $1.50? This is the kind of info I love to get into! Come at me, balance sheets!

That foundation shade mix-up is driving me crazy as well!!!😵 At first I thought it was Sephora's website that was the problem and then I started seeing it on other ones too and I was like nooo STOP please lol!!!! It makes it impossible to find your shade in a timely manner!!

It’s true about Kosas. My concealer smelled super bad after two months.
