There has been some recent drama surrounding Irene aka Pinkiecharm about whether she is receiving free products from MAC or not. As we all know, she gets a lot of free products from Stila. I don't see how it's hard to believe that she's now getting products from MAC also. The good drama revolving around this topic comes in the form of Irene's MakeupAlley swapping. Recently she posted a video on YouTube reviewing the new Spring Forecast 1 collection. Wouldn't you know that before even making that video live she had the "free" items up for swap on MakeupAlley?!
http://www.makeupalley.com/swap/items.asp/u=MissIrene/type=1/ This is the link to her swap list.
Now, I'm not one to hate or actually even care if "gurus" get free products to review and talk about. There are a lot of brands I would have never heard of if some YouTuber hadn't talked about it. But, I think it's complete bullshit that this Fupa Queen is taking the products she's reviewed and profiting off of them via swapping. She could use the products in her little "twitaways" and I wouldn't have anything to say about it. She already makes money off of YouTube and her blog. I'm sure a lot of the Stila products that she has up for swap were given to her for free as well.
Another thing about Pinkiecharm that confuses me is why she actually hoards all of this make up. We've all seen in her videos that she barely wears it. She sticks to very neutral and light colours yet she has heaps of bright and bold colours in her collection.
Honestly, a blog about Pinkiecharm really could go on for ages. There is so much out there about her and then her snobby attitude just adds fuel to the trolling fire.
Just for the lolz....
It is confirmed that she gets MAC products for free. On her blog she writes "These products were provided to me by MAC Cosmetics for review purposes. I earned no monetary compensation from said company nor did it influence my opinion."
ReplyDeleteFor some reason, I think she has to return them to MAC because other bloggers like Temptalia & Pursebuzz buy their own products after doing swatches & reviews.
Stop with the hatin y'all!!! Irene looks lovelier than ever in this spectacular mirror image photo.

haha Great comparison! She really does look a lot like him!
ReplyDeleteI TOTALLY agree! I've always wondered why she gets makeup! She NEVER wears it!!!! Ugh! So happy someone finally said it!!!
ReplyDeleteWhy the hell would MAC give her makeup to review??
ReplyDeleteWhy hate on her though? She does reviews for anyone who is curious about these brands! You guys are so "sensitive" and JEALOUS that she gets free stuff from companies! These brands are using her to get people to buy stuff! Its LIFE! lol
ReplyDeleteIt's so hilarious that people hate and get upset over something so trivial!
this blog is such a fail haha. its funny that you try so hard
ReplyDeleteI thought that Mac doesn't give away free items to review ...I remember one of the big named gurus saying that once. Maybe they changed their policy, I dunno.
ReplyDeleteholy fak...i just realized who she looks like...NEWMAN from seinfeld!

I just wish I could sit through one of her reviews. Normally I have to stop watching half way through because of all the stupid facial expressions she makes (which she seems to think is cute) and laughing at her own lame jokes. Shame really since she reviews a lot of products that I have interest in. I'll have to go to Temptalia for the real deal.
ReplyDeleteMAC usually sends REAL Makeup Artists free products. I'm shocked they even considered her.
she doesnt get free products, she just writes that she does.. its bs, i know for a fact MAC doesnt send youtubers makeup!
ReplyDeleteWow I've never read things written by as nasty and cruel a person as you. This is shameful. This and the post on Bunny Meyer where you not only insulted them but their subscribers too, calling them freaks? Who are you to make that judgement on other people that you do not know and have never met? Certainly no one I would ever want to know.
ReplyDeleteWow! How some of you can live such petty existence is beyond me. Whether or not she pays for the products is no ones business but her own. So she does not walk around looking like a cheap whore with globs of makeup, that is her prerogative. Ladies grow up. She was always upfront in stating that she was not a makeup artist and that she would review makeup. And the childish comments on her weight, are mean. It speaks volumes about your envious persona. She may be plus size but she is beautiful, and blessed with an amazing life. All she wanted was to inform us as consumers of makeup, I am sorry that her ability to buy and get large amounts of makeup takes away from your sad existence. Irene if you are reading this : lions do not loose sleep over what stupid sheep discuss. Your amazing.
