This week in beauty news: James Charles launches a new palette and goes OFF on TikTok. In more drama, James responds to people accusing him of using a fan’s death to sell palettes. Meanwhile, Lashify's founder Sahara Lotti faces backlash AGAIN for aggressive lawsuits and controversial comments about Chinese brands. We also dive into Supergoop suing Five Below for allegedly copying their Unseen Sunscreen, and Beautycounter is back under a new name, Counter, but is it still an MLM? Let’s break it all down.
