What kills me is how gravely she makes it… I love Jersey and Brooklyn accents but what she does with her voice is just- ugh. Her natural voice is nowhere near that grating 💀
the nerve of Tana calling out Brooke's past tweets but then collabing with Jeffree... and also I don't like Mikayla but Jeffree of all people acting all high and mighty and calling her out for lying. pot calling the kettle black
I am so sorry but Jeffree saying "not everybody acts right up here" has me dying laughing. Sure Jeffree, we all know 𝘺𝘰𝘶 act right with all your money, power, and viewers.
Literally all Mikayla needed to say was 'hey I liked these eyeshadows but realize they are not affordable for everyone, here is an e.l.f. alternative for a similar look' instead of doing this whole weirdly aggressive vibe. Mikayla is also someone I can't imagine being friends with. This is just the mean girls of high school turning on one another and frankly they both deserve each other. None of these people ever matured into adults istg.
I wish people would stop praising Jeffree for having the most popular "controversial" opinon and acting like its some hot take. People have been bringing attention to Mikayla's lies for a while now - its not controversial at all lol (a broken clock is right twice a day and all that). And imo he's only going this hard because she didn't want to collab with him. I think we know if they did collab - Jeffree would be kissing her butt majorly.
The amount of people reacting as if Patrick Ta is holding them at gŲɲ point to buy it is insane 😆 Also do people forget that Tom Ford, dior, chanel, n Gucci makeup exists?????? Lol
I mean… the makeup market is completely saturated at this point so if this is too expensive you could get a duo of beautiful sparkly indie shadows. They look pretty, I won’t buy it, but I hope the people that do like it. I’m like a crow, I’m drawn to shiny things so these look really nice but I know I have stuff that already looks similar. Edit: God Mikayla is such a sensory nightmare
@@manic_girl I just am always astonished how anyone can listen to her for a full minute 😂 her voice irritates me so much. And definitely, I only buy things if I need to replace something and really think about how often I’d wear it these days
I’ve seen another creator who I like Monica Ravichandran make a short clip where she defends Patrick TA’s pricing and explains it. I trust her judgement even if her makeup style isn’t for me. That said, she also mentioned if anyone is interested that Wycon Cosmetics has a very close dupe. It’s a Italian brand that’s very affordable
Polish brand GlamShop has some amazing sparkling eyeshadows for a fraction of the price, just pure pigment, I wouldn't even call them a dupe, because they've been around for years.
Nobody complains about the Pat McGrath prices when really it’s the same concept. Patrick Ta has never been a CHEAP or AFFORDABLE brand. The fact that there are two shades and not ONE single shadow, the price completely makes sense for his brand and the product itself! Just my two cents 😂
Patrick Ta has been a well known name in the makeup industry for a LONG time, he can charge that. Everyones acting like he’s up and coming because they’ve never heard of his brand😭
@ 1. No he’s not he benefits from every brand he trashed bc he has his own brand and 2. Believe it or not I don’t think that negates how awful he is in every other way. He’s a racist and a misogynistic asshole
Yes I agree the pricing on his eyeshadow make sense I’ve always thought this would I buy it maybe if I had the money but I’m not gonna crap on his pricing when it isn’t that bad when u think about it. Singular eyeshadows cost a lot just like he pointed out the urban decay moon dust ones have been out for how long and I haven’t heard anyone complaining just like Charlotte Tilbury pop shots.
@@xxoxEMxoxx for these eyeshadows ? I know there was claims before but it wasn’t mold it was oxidation problems also tbh what company hasn’t had an issue before so I wouldn’t hold it against him if it was true
I don’t know what makes me more mad Makayla being an annoying liar as per usual or her making Jeffree Star of all people be right and have a🤢🤮. But then again Jeffree was describing himself so the irony in that.
I dont mind the price of the Patrick Ta duos, I just wish they were singles, id rather pay $20 for one shade that i really want rather than a duo where i only want one shade.
I will ALWAYS pay extra for more product with better quality ingredients. If it’s going on my face or in my body then I don’t want anybody cutting corners.
i rarely - and i mean RARELY - buy luxury/high-end brands but honestly, i'm more inclined to buy his duo now after seeing his explanation of the price when compared to singles of slightly smaller size. especially knowing it's composition.
I think people are just sick of people like JS & MN getting this stuff for free while everyone else has to pay. Actually I think most people are sick of most "influencers" getting these things for free while everyone else has to pay. Let’s be honest here, most of these people that get this stuff for free…it’s not like they’re hard up for cash.
It really speaks to our horrific attention spans that we can’t watch anything anymore without a split screen with a bunch of random things going on at the same time.
I love your videos😭😭 I wish Mikayla would either improve her terrible decisions and disclose or just stop all together. She’s so infuriating and adds nothing to the industry but lies and distrust. If she’s the standard now for an influencer what kind of future are we going to have? Everyone lying and not disclosing?
i actually am gonna comment on your hoodie look because before you said you hated it and why i thought you looked stunning 😭 the hairstyle and color of the hoodie suits you so well (sad the hoodie is terribly made tho) truly 💗💗💗
I’m think she could have worded it differently and it would came across better. She could have said both are great but if you can’t afford Patrick, here are some options that may be more affordable. But I still don’t like her 😅
the point about continuity is a GREAT one. she has no throughline. no real products she actually loves and uses constantly, let alone for a whole year. VS youtubers - we all know nikkie always uses juvia’s place eyeshadows and the plouise base, we all know tati uses the tarte smoothing primer, jeffree uses the bobbi brown vitamin face base, james uses the tatcha silk canvas etc etc. it’s THAT kind of lasting continuity that makes product reviews actually believable.
About the continuity, I think that if you just see her pop up every once in a while people wont notice I guess, but if you follow her you notice but in the algorithm maybe not
The thing that I’m annoyed about w Patrick Ta is his insistence that he’s got the most revolutionary formula with “100% pearl”. Sir, 1) baked slurry formulas are great but not new 2) you aren’t using “pearl” you’re using mica cut with Ca Ti borosilicate 3) it’s not “100%” anything you’ve got MULTIPLE fillers, binders, and bulking agents. Obviously such agents are part of any cosmetic formulation, but that’s not what he’s saying, and imo it feels so disingenuous for him to be “justifying” the product with false (or at the very least highly misleading) statements
I’ll also add that they look very pretty, I don’t think 42 is completely out of the norm for something like this (it’s just odd that it’s more expensive than his blush duos, his highlighter duos, and basically half the price of a full size palette), and if they don’t mold in 6-9 months I think carefully selecting one “perfect for you” duo could be a great addition to someone with a more minimalist mainstream collection if they wanted to treat themselves to something different. Truly the only bad vibes I’ve got was from his misleading marketing statements compiled on top of my baseline slight distrust from his poor handling of the previous eyeshadow mold issue
i was an elf girl for over a decade i stuck by them through the weird cult accusations but the way mikayla is promoting them has really soured me on the brand
one of my young 18 year old coworkers was using jeffrey stars lip gloss yesterday and raving abt him. and i was like “ya his products are really good but i don’t like him, he’s very problematic.” i seem to have blown her mind…….
@@baptismascure I figured but I still find it weird he didn't use the product as intended. I think it's a good product but the back of your hand doesn't crease like your eyelids do, so I'm sceptical as to how it would actually wear on the eyes throughout the day
@whyaretheredemonnoises3188 i think it would have just been extreamly show what he wanted to with the amount of space that the eyelid is and how far away his face is from the camera, using his hand was more practical with a larger area without having to constantly be changing camera angles which would also involve editing
And some of these high end brand do want to be able to select their clients, as is more rich people to be the only ones to wear it to fit the image of brand and clients they want to be known as
gonna be so honest I don't really feel the desire to defend a luxury brand likely making huge profits off of some makeup. especially with how the economy is right now, people are struggling to even afford groceries where I live. makeup is not a neccessity and people make their own choices, but internet culture also seriously pushes people to look as successful and trendy as possible - so there's likely people who purchased this and couldn't afford it. and I'm a hell of a lot more likely to defend the poor people targeted by consumerism then some rich dude with a makeup brand. I haven't purchased luxury makeup since I was a teenager because its genuinely not affordable for me anymore, and it isn't for most people. I think its fine for people to point that out.
Well nobody is forcing them to buy it. Also Patrik Ta is a household name and he’s known for his great quality. Of course a certain part of his price is the name but don’t forget that you’re paying for luxury quality and innovation. When a drug store Produkt uses already known formulas („copying“) and veery affordable ingredients/ packaging of course it will be less pricey
@ If you read my comment I said that people make their own choices, but that consumerism encourages bad financial choices. His product is also not innovative. It’s a shimmer eye shadow.
@ of course formulas can be innovative. And it’s only a bad financial choice if you don’t have the money or don’t like it. If you save up for it and actually use it your money is well spent. It’s also the exact opposite of consumerism. Consumerism would be buying a giant palette and only using one or two shades
You know what they say! Even a stopped clock is sometimes correct throughout the course of the day maybe possibly because the clock is stopped so it's a possibility that maybe the clock could also be right as well .....or sumn like dat 😕
I really don’t think Mikayla meant it was an exact dupe she just said there is something else just as pretty for much cheaper that’s it. People are dragging her and in this situation she doesn’t deserve it at all lol
Will it go off? If you’re going to set a high price I hope it lives up to a high standard. He doesn’t have a great track record with quality. So it better be high quality that matches the price. It came out of the pan. I wonder who will have their eyeshadow shattered all over their bathroom floor. Zero trust
Heck, one elf shadow is 6 bucks. ????That’s super expensive for me. You can get a whole Juvias place or colourpop palette for only half as much added on. I’m sorry. 42 for a duo???? This is crazy. Even LA colors stumbles upon a good formula in 2024. As these higher end formulations become easier to access and cheaper to distribute
I mean. I love the look of those shadows. Id probably wear them more than a whole pallet for the same price and therefore get the money fully out of it in using it all.
i saw the first post tana and brooke posted with J star just as it came out and i was SHOCKED. jaw to the ground like why tf are they collabing with him and went into the comments to say just that and ALL the comments were hyping them up like WTFFF
Honestly I get that Urban Decay shadows are just as expensive but the difference is that you get the choice to pick the second one if you want to therefore having to get 2 shadows for 42 dollars it just seems crazy to me
mikayla's boston accent is so exaggerated it's so annoying. like yes there are people who have accents like that but she lays it on so thick for the camera
If ppl don't like how much something costs then just don't buy it😭 like there's so much affordable makeup, you don't need Patrick Ta if it's too expensive for you. When you make a business, you're allowed to price your product whatever you want, he's making good quality makeup and wants it to be seen as a luxury item so obviously he has to give it luxury prices. It's not like he said he's doing a charity favor by promising cheap makeup to ppl. He wants to make a profit and he wants to make a profit that allows him and his family to live a certain lifestyle. He's putting the work in to make his own good quality product so he deserves to get rich from it if that's what he wants. It's so annoying how ppl complain about not getting paid their worth and then get mad at ppl like Patrick for charging their worth.
I feel your pain, I am your miserable company. I am also having allergies in early Nov where I live. So much so that I have a horrible head cold right now. You're not alone, though I can't offer more than empathy and commiseration
mikayla is so infuriating and now people are gonna ride or die for jeffree until his cyclical downfall (again), we are tiredddd of both of them also about the patrick ta pricing, the price breakdown based on production is extremely reasonable in my opinion. I think a lot of consumers (myself included) have misguided anger towards inflation and the cost of living. makeup has always been around this price range, i think with the struggle of cost of living right now means less room to purchase things we as consumers enjoy (less disposable income) is making people more annoyed and upset. We are rightfully upset about inflation and the cost of living but that is not patrick's, or any makeup brands, fault or problem
I normally don't comment at all. I'm in the same boat. I'm not a fan of Jeffree and really don't like Mikayla. I think Mikayla is trying to make herself the next jeffree in a sense. A problem but I'm still getting it. But Jeffree is miles ahead when it comes to business. I also think she gets so dramatic about the pricing because she is trying to remain relatable when she just isn't to her audience anymore.
Those Patrick Ta duos are stunning, but $42 is a little bit much. I really wanted to try the white and gold duo, and maybe there will be a sale that will take some money off, then I can try them. For now I'm holding off.
Really irritating hearing about these funds available to overseas creators on TikTok when in Aus you can have 100k followers and millions of views and get jack shite
If I owned my own makeup brand I’d make Makayla sign a contract to never review it because no matter what she says it’ll be negative publicity for the company.
For some reason when JS was on live saying “oh they’re saying he’s awful” wah wah wah my mind was taken to that Summer Heights High Jaime clip where she’s claiming the other girls are bullying her. The desperate need for a pity party.
I watch Angeschka, and she was recently talking about these shadows as well. It’s not the expensiveness that concerns people. They understand that the brand is exclusive. Simply the singles are the most expensive to create. What also Angeschka said was that just because you add two shadows in one component, doesn’t mean that the product price will go as high as for two singles. The less options you put in the component (I actually dislike this word), the more expensive it is to produce it. Yes, it’s two shadows, but it’s not two separate containers for it. Wte protective packaging there is, is still one piece instead of one for each option. Any palette would become a LOT more expensive, if any of us would buy it piece by piece, where every item has it’s own packaging from head to toe instead of one united packaging for all of the shades. I hope I make some sense here. Tho, I can’t understand how anyone can dupe such thing. According to the guy in the video presenting Patrick shades, there’s an exceptional pigment, which is definitely expensive itself, therefore, makes $42 price tag pretty understable. Elf will never be able to dupe it. It’s not a Chanel quad to dupe, those have pretty regular shadows in them, and PatrickTa is not having regular pigments in the duo. I could understand wanting to suggest “affordable” option, but what Patrick’s shadows are offering is not smth you can sell for $6. A duo of singles, where EACH item has separate packaging, EACH for 6 bucks can’t be at any point close to that pigment that is in a compact duo for $42. The brand adds the price for it’s name, ofc, but Elf should be selling it for higher price, if it really was a quality dupe. Indie makeup is full of these glistening things, and as well there they’re quite expensive. The fancier is the pigment and ingredients in the offered product, the more expensive is going to be that product, it’s just the name of the game. MIKAYLA should know that. She has worked with Glamlite, an indie brand, which exactly offers such glistening things.
20:57 jeffree has done awful crap… I do believe people can be humbled and changed. I do think he’s changes some.. still not a good person though. But he does have a unique prospective that most people won’t.
I rarely purchase pricy luxury makeup, I just don't wear it enough working from home to justify that price tag. I mainly wear E.L.F -- HOWEVER, I 100% agree you get what you pay for. I know I'm getting a less quality product in ELF. --- To me his eyeshadow being high cost is no different than me spending extra to get the brand I like in gaming gear because you get what you pay for. So, I don't think he's overpriced, he just isn't for everyone.
Jeffree calling out Mikayla is the classic example of “right message, wrong messenger”.

I haven't purchased luxury makeup since I was a teenager because its genuinely not affordable for me anymore, and it isn't for most people. I think its fine for people to point that out.
Well nobody is forcing them to buy it. Also Patrik Ta is a household name and he’s known for his great quality. Of course a certain part of his price is the name but don’t forget that you’re paying for luxury quality and innovation.
When a drug store Produkt uses already known formulas („copying“) and veery affordable ingredients/ packaging of course it will be less pricey
@ If you read my comment I said that people make their own choices, but that consumerism encourages bad financial choices. His product is also not innovative. It’s a shimmer eye shadow.
@ of course formulas can be innovative.
And it’s only a bad financial choice if you don’t have the money or don’t like it. If you save up for it and actually use it your money is well spent.
It’s also the exact opposite of consumerism. Consumerism would be buying a giant palette and only using one or two shades
You know what they say! Even a stopped clock is sometimes correct throughout the course of the day maybe possibly because the clock is stopped so it's a possibility that maybe the clock could also be right as well
.....or sumn like dat 😕
Love your reading nook, girl!! 😊 and as always, makeup+hair+outfit on point♥️
24:06 literally everyone says that 😂😂 . Pretty sure you even said it in the video. I don’t even like Makayla, but let’s keep it consistent.
Nah theres a difference between doing ads and a collaboration vs being endorsed by a brand..
I really don’t think Mikayla meant it was an exact dupe she just said there is something else just as pretty for much cheaper that’s it. People are dragging her and in this situation she doesn’t deserve it at all lol
Oh look at that. Jeffree going STRAIGHT for her appearance in his criticism of Mikayla *yawn*
Will it go off? If you’re going to set a high price I hope it lives up to a high standard. He doesn’t have a great track record with quality. So it better be high quality that matches the price. It came out of the pan. I wonder who will have their eyeshadow shattered all over their bathroom floor. Zero trust
Heck, one elf shadow is 6 bucks. ????That’s super expensive for me. You can get a whole Juvias place or colourpop palette for only half as much added on.
I’m sorry. 42 for a duo???? This is crazy. Even LA colors stumbles upon a good formula in 2024. As these higher end formulations become easier to access and cheaper to distribute
I mean. I love the look of those shadows. Id probably wear them more than a whole pallet for the same price and therefore get the money fully out of it in using it all.
i saw the first post tana and brooke posted with J star just as it came out and i was SHOCKED. jaw to the ground like why tf are they collabing with him and went into the comments to say just that and ALL the comments were hyping them up like WTFFF
Such a shame that elf works with her because I actually like their brand in its own right but her saying to buy it makes me not want to 😅
Honestly I get that Urban Decay shadows are just as expensive but the difference is that you get the choice to pick the second one if you want to therefore having to get 2 shadows for 42 dollars it just seems crazy to me
The fact that Patrick said that innovation takes years and elf comes out with dupes right away….
Hmmmm 🤔 seems like elf wouldn’t be as good… sooo.
Like James Charles saying he spent years working on his first palette!
It’s also easier to copy once the Formular is ok the mostet vs spending the resources to research yourself
mikayla's boston accent is so exaggerated it's so annoying. like yes there are people who have accents like that but she lays it on so thick for the camera
I wonder if you could get 3 for 18.
you could HEAR the dryness in the elf ones when she was first getting the products onto her fingers...
Jeffree absolutely positively HATES women. He has a huge hatred for women because I can’t stand Mikayla but that was disgraceful
If ppl don't like how much something costs then just don't buy it😭 like there's so much affordable makeup, you don't need Patrick Ta if it's too expensive for you. When you make a business, you're allowed to price your product whatever you want, he's making good quality makeup and wants it to be seen as a luxury item so obviously he has to give it luxury prices.
It's not like he said he's doing a charity favor by promising cheap makeup to ppl. He wants to make a profit and he wants to make a profit that allows him and his family to live a certain lifestyle. He's putting the work in to make his own good quality product so he deserves to get rich from it if that's what he wants. It's so annoying how ppl complain about not getting paid their worth and then get mad at ppl like Patrick for charging their worth.
Ok..how can he call Mikayla out like that but then be friends with Jaclyn, who was the RUclips Mikayla because she lied her ass off about everything?
I like how Patrick respectfully addressed the concerns in a very adult way. More brands should consider this approach.
I feel your pain, I am your miserable company. I am also having allergies in early Nov where I live. So much so that I have a horrible head cold right now. You're not alone, though I can't offer more than empathy and commiseration
mikayla is so infuriating and now people are gonna ride or die for jeffree until his cyclical downfall (again), we are tiredddd of both of them
also about the patrick ta pricing, the price breakdown based on production is extremely reasonable in my opinion. I think a lot of consumers (myself included) have misguided anger towards inflation and the cost of living. makeup has always been around this price range, i think with the struggle of cost of living right now means less room to purchase things we as consumers enjoy (less disposable income) is making people more annoyed and upset. We are rightfully upset about inflation and the cost of living but that is not patrick's, or any makeup brands, fault or problem
Angelikaaaaaaa noooooooo 😂😂😂 now I NEED those eyeshadows in my life. I need to sparkle to the moon 😂❤
Does anyone know what shade he swatched??? 😅
I normally don't comment at all. I'm in the same boat. I'm not a fan of Jeffree and really don't like Mikayla.
I think Mikayla is trying to make herself the next jeffree in a sense. A problem but I'm still getting it. But Jeffree is miles ahead when it comes to business.
I also think she gets so dramatic about the pricing because she is trying to remain relatable when she just isn't to her audience anymore.
I love this take.
Never thought I’d be agreeing with JS, however him coming for Mikaylas tan hands needs to stop when he’s got horrendous YSL tattoos on his…
Those Patrick Ta duos are stunning, but $42 is a little bit much. I really wanted to try the white and gold duo, and maybe there will be a sale that will take some money off, then I can try them. For now I'm holding off.
she could’ve still sold it but market it as an affordable option i don’t understand why she has to drag in order to sell
I'm absolutely not a fan of Jeffree's in the slightest but he ate her up ngl 😅
All I’m gonna say about Jeffree calling out Mikayla:
Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
Following the opinion of the mass isn’t really being right
Realizing she blocked you while filming was HILARIOUS 😂
Didn’t Jeffree move out to Wyoming or whatever to “get away from the drama”, yet here he is again causing more 🙄🙄🙄🙄
Really irritating hearing about these funds available to overseas creators on TikTok when in Aus you can have 100k followers and millions of views and get jack shite
If I owned my own makeup brand I’d make Makayla sign a contract to never review it because no matter what she says it’ll be negative publicity for the company.
For some reason when JS was on live saying “oh they’re saying he’s awful” wah wah wah my mind was taken to that Summer Heights High Jaime clip where she’s claiming the other girls are bullying her. The desperate need for a pity party.
Okay but Designer bags are a scam too. Way too overpriced as production is usually about 400 $ and they sell it for 40000$
I watch Angeschka, and she was recently talking about these shadows as well. It’s not the expensiveness that concerns people. They understand that the brand is exclusive. Simply the singles are the most expensive to create. What also Angeschka said was that just because you add two shadows in one component, doesn’t mean that the product price will go as high as for two singles. The less options you put in the component (I actually dislike this word), the more expensive it is to produce it. Yes, it’s two shadows, but it’s not two separate containers for it. Wte protective packaging there is, is still one piece instead of one for each option. Any palette would become a LOT more expensive, if any of us would buy it piece by piece, where every item has it’s own packaging from head to toe instead of one united packaging for all of the shades. I hope I make some sense here.
Tho, I can’t understand how anyone can dupe such thing. According to the guy in the video presenting Patrick shades, there’s an exceptional pigment, which is definitely expensive itself, therefore, makes $42 price tag pretty understable. Elf will never be able to dupe it. It’s not a Chanel quad to dupe, those have pretty regular shadows in them, and PatrickTa is not having regular pigments in the duo. I could understand wanting to suggest “affordable” option, but what Patrick’s shadows are offering is not smth you can sell for $6. A duo of singles, where EACH item has separate packaging, EACH for 6 bucks can’t be at any point close to that pigment that is in a compact duo for $42. The brand adds the price for it’s name, ofc, but Elf should be selling it for higher price, if it really was a quality dupe. Indie makeup is full of these glistening things, and as well there they’re quite expensive. The fancier is the pigment and ingredients in the offered product, the more expensive is going to be that product, it’s just the name of the game. MIKAYLA should know that. She has worked with Glamlite, an indie brand, which exactly offers such glistening things.
20:57 jeffree has done awful crap… I do believe people can be humbled and changed. I do think he’s changes some.. still not a good person though. But he does have a unique prospective that most people won’t.
I don’t think hes changed one bit. Look at how he drags Hailey Bieber through the mid just to speak up some attention and appeal to the mass
He also still spends time with people like Tana, sooo…
I actually like the jumper you look good
Wouldn’t be surprised if she actually took the Patrick Ta on her eyes and pretended it was the Elf 🙄
I rarely purchase pricy luxury makeup, I just don't wear it enough working from home to justify that price tag. I mainly wear E.L.F -- HOWEVER, I 100% agree you get what you pay for. I know I'm getting a less quality product in ELF. --- To me his eyeshadow being high cost is no different than me spending extra to get the brand I like in gaming gear because you get what you pay for. So, I don't think he's overpriced, he just isn't for everyone.
