Jamie’s actually one of the only beauty influencers that I’ve never heard mention about giving stuff to womens shelters or charities. Not saying she definitely doesn’t do it, but I’d imagine a lot of her friends and family are sitting with a TONNE of makeup and skincare when they only have one face
TBF to Jamie, I didn't actually think charities are allowed to take cosmetics. I used to work in a charity shop and we weren't allowed to take anything like that, regardless of if it was brand new incase it was fake or had been tampered with/used. Also tbh, as a consumer, regardless of my situation, I wouldn't take someone else's old makeup. It's kinda got "using the store testers on your face" vibes
A lot of women’s shelters take stuff that can be easily sanitised but not like mascaras etc for obvious reasons. And a lot of Jamie’s stuff will have never been used. For women who use women’s shelters, having a bit of makeup, even if it’s “using the store testers on your face” vibes, it gives them confidence and helps get back on their feet - feel good about themselves going to job interviews, going to appointments etc. Sophdoeslife has done quite a lot of videos on it
Why does everything have to run out at the same timeI'm just jealous I'm not getting to raid her stash. I need moisturiser and my foundation and mascara are running out but I'm too skint to buy any
kills meI agree that she doesn’t do any giveaways or anything cos shes terrified of controversy or disputes which is a shame but I get it because people can be really vile over these giveaways however she totally could organise to give them away to a shelter or make some large goodie bags that could be raffled by charities so then she doesn’t have to manage the giveaway herself. Would be nice to see and I don’t think nearly enough influencers use their platforms to give or promote causes.
Literally alwaysWhy does everything have to run out at the same time
I'm in the scrappings of my mascara now. Thank god payday is tomorrow!!Of course she is, YouTube money pays well! You can see her accounts online also
£150k in her business accounts after outgoings for the last tax year. Down a bit on the previous year. Hard to tell exactly what she earns but it’s not multi-millions.
she’s 1000% a millionaire maybe not multimillion but definitely a millionaire. YouTube pays her easily about 3,000+ a month but let’s not forget the amount of brand deals she does and partnerships. Plus let’s not forget her house was close to a mill and she’s already put down at least 300,000k from her last house off that. Overall net worth is definitely a mill
I think the reason most influencers don’t do giveaways is that it would cost them time and money on managing entries and admin and postage and stuff. If it’s not part of your business model then you wouldn’t prioritise it over other activities that make money. I also wonder if there are legal liability issues like if someone had a bad reaction to a product or something? I can see why it wouldn’t be worth the risk to them, purely from a business and revenue standpoint.
Maybe I’m naive but what exactly causes controversy during giveaways? I haven’t seen backlash from other influencers but the only thing I could think is maybe the validity of the person that’s chosen to win?
My understanding is that any competition whether it’s social media or a tv show phone in is governed by competiton law (esp in the UK) so can be a legal nightmare if not done properly. A load of influencers are probably just winging it and hoping for the best. But it “could” be regarded as too much effort /work
