i find it silly that the creator is upset that the owner handled this publicly...while she initiated the drama and RESPONDED publicly.
why would the owner reach out privately at this point? even if there was unfinished business the fact that she racially attacked the owner there is nothing for them to work out together anymore.
That influencer quoting a Kendrick Lamar lyric is cringe lol
Influencer is childish. Even if she felt ghosted, she as an adult can follow-up instead of sitting there feeling sorry for herself… if there’s still no response then GET OVER IT AND MOVE ON
childish.
I guess my manger following up in January wasn’t good enough smh. The double standards are sickening
Her channel really gives the answer -- she was a very money-hungry microinfluencer who had her Glamlite videos do well on the algorithm and felt entitled. Her manager's company doesn't even exist.
The way the influencer is acting is so immature and unprofessional
Every video I've seen from going on her channel comes across exactly that way, as well as condescending and conceited
“I’m not in the business of begging”
*continues to whine and beg for a change in commission*
Preach !!!!!!
It sounds like she does NOT want equal pay but MORE pay for her only.
The influencer lost my respect immediately when she started putting into question the Giselle's racial identity. Like, I'm sorry, latinos come in different shades and some latinos are black. Having her following harrass Giselle with racial insults is not the vibe, even if she felt slighted by Glamlite. Furthermore, she didn't even do any follow-up. I hope Glamlite never works with her again, because her behavior was ridiculous. She should've let her management team deal with this instead of acting a fool online
Exactly! The fact that is is belittling another black woman all because she’s “Latino” shows that she has no class and a lack of respect
I’m a Glamlite Affiliate and honestly I’ve spoken with the owner a few times and she actually is very sincere and genuine. I voluntarily create my content because I love makeup so much so I definitely let my small audience know what’s new and affordable. I hope this gets resolved quickly!
I may be wrong, but it seems like the content creator was promoting Glamlite of her own free will. While her content earned her money via tiktok shop, I don't feel it justifies Glamlite giving her additional commission on top of what she has already earned, especially if there was no contract that said she would. I believe it was an honest mistake, and I would have more than likely ignored any further messages I received if I felt I was being ignored. But to be honest, the creator comes off as having a "you need me, I don't need you" attitude. In the five months that she didn't hear anything, assuming that she wanted to work with them, she could have fired off at least one follow-up email, and all of this could have been avoided. What done is done at this point. She can choose to learn from this and work with those who will pay her what she feels she is worth.
yes I agree. I looked into the content creator and she focuses on luxury content. things like $6000 haul.
the entitlement speaks volumes when you consider glamlite an indie / independent company.
I also think a follow up would have been standard. she also had the owners number
Also am I blind? She keeps saying she disrespected her as a black woman but the brand owner is a black woman??? I’m so confused 💀
@@morethanyourbasicsyeah it’s not on the CEO to reach out to individuals. If she wanted to know what was up an email or text would take literally 1-2 minutes. Lol
@@brookelynnwu8016 no you're completely right. She suggested the owner hid her identity or uses it occasionally when it pleases her but that was her opinion and a dangerous one.
The owner's personal/individual Instagram says that she's the owner so it wasn't well hidden.
@@brookelynnwu8016 i agree. i feel like it reflects on her greenness to the industry because a follow up email or text would have been standard. Hi, I haven't heard back ... I'm just following up on xyz.
Glamlite messed up with the originally lack of response but I can't get over her attacking the race of the CEO and saying she supports black women. even as another creator I would be weary of working with her
Maybe it’s because I’m a person with a real job and not an influencer, but the idea of not just sending a follow up email when I’m receiving event invitations but not a response to a business email is absolutely wild to me. Emails get sent to wrong email addresses or saved to drafts all the time. Humans make mistakes, be an adult and follow up. What type of manager doesn’t send a follow up??? Also I’m sorry but if you’re making commission on unsponsored posts, then you’ve been fairly compensated for your work. To say she did “free promo” is so disingenuous. At no point was she not paid in some fashion for the content that she created.
She “stands on her business”, HAS a manager to handle “that business” but has no contract or nothing in writing? When they met them in person… That should have been one of the first things they asked… Can this be a contract? Can I have this in writing… This is just a he said she said it would not hold water in a court of law.
Her manager's company has no history online
There's no two sides. If you want to be paid a certain amount, negotiate it. If you aren't getting paid what you want, don't do the reviews. You can't do the reviews if 15% of sales isn't enough for you and then demand more when you didn't even try to advocate that in the first place. That's not how it works. Influencer is just being greedy. Contracts, contracts, contracts. Think of any other job. I was a tattoo artist and said the tattoo will be 1k. You can't then say, oh actually, the tattoo is now 2k after the tattoo is done.
15% is more than enough commission, that goes straight in her pocket. The brands cut gets split into so many other ways. I'm sorry but the influencer is just greedy...
Yup. Glamlite’s owner mentioned Tik Tok makes a good cut of their sales through Tik Tok shop so if Christian made 13K, Glamlite only made 20K out of that 92K. Tik Tok charges them for shipping too. So like how exactly are they supposed to make money for themself by paying her more?
But white influencer get at least 250k to collab and get birkins for boosting sales 😮
Big commission. I’ve worked in sales for 20 years, my best commission was around 5% tops. The influencer didn’t commute with them and just rant? So immature. 🙄
This Glamlite owner seems very sincere in her response.
There's a lesson there: it's not what you say, it's how you say it.
I feel like this reflects poorly on the influencer, she just showed other brands how she handles businesss. I guarantee this will limit future partnerships.
I was thinking the same thing!! It's messy and other brands aren't going to want to deal with that.😬
100% this. The way the influencer handled this is a huge red flag.
I’m on the owners side on this one. The entitlement of this influencer is insane. I agree know your worth but to be so hubris…nope. I wouldn’t be following her. If you are that conceited that you can’t even have a conversation, she was the one that made it public, not the brand. The brand doesn’t owe her ANYTHING. And she did get paid. This screams I can be bought and do things. Commission are enough! There was not a rate or pay agreed on?? When you share something on your own free will because you like something, and you get comission you should be grateful for anything else that comes from it and not be so entitled.
I’d just take all this broad’s commission away at this point. Homegirl is a problem and her attitude sucks.
I'm not an influencer/creator but when my son was Born I had reached out to a brand on Instagram to see if we could get some onesies donated to my son's NICU. After emailing back and forth The one owner agreed to send me the onesies. I waited months and months and heard nothing back. One day I just decided to email again to make sure that they were going to send the onesies or if they had a change of mine. Turns out the two owners hadn't talked to each other and my email had gotten lost. I said all this to say it doesn't hurt the influencer to reach out again to see if the brand deal she wants is going to be happening when a brand owner is busy.
CC comes off as money hungry... my 2 cents
I really do love the way that glamlite has responded to this.
Just sounds like a huge misunderstanding on both ends, sadly. I hope this gets resolved
To me, it seems like Christian took every conversation as agreements and not ideas of what could happen. She was paid thru TikTok shop so why is she upset if an actual agreement wasn’t made for a higher commission. If you’re going to do business then things need to be written to be binding.
Influencer needed that humbling
I think being really crappy & not admitting when you're wrong most certainly does not encourage Glamlite to go ahead with any deals with this creator. I think if she would have posted "oopsie" Glamlite probably would, but since she's still being an ass, I don't blame them. Now you get nothing Karen!
Yeah.. no I stand my ground on the influencer being incorrect on this. Sounds like she took it upon herself to ASSUME her free labour would bring in whatever amount she claimed & ended up disappointed, lol but hey now she's learned a thing or two about business for the future.
The influencer and all her “on Beyonce’s internet” and “I stand on business” was getting on my last nerve…I love Bey but this creator is annoying…
And she was playing into diaspora wars
Totally agree!
It’s not confusing at all. We have RUclipsrs on here who get free PR in return for reviewing the product. That doesn’t mean they go around and say oh hey this brand owes me now because I made them x amount of money. They get paid with the views they make. It’s just wild to me that Christian told them 15% isn’t her normal rate when she chose to make videos promoting their product. They don’t owe her anything more than what was already given. Literally anyone can become a Tik Tok affiliate.
I 💯 stand with Glamlite. They make good quality products and their collabs are always done well. Christian could’ve handled this better and not have her followers throw racial slurs at Giselle. I can’t imagine any brand wanting to work with her after this. She’s a narcissist who needs to humble herself.
To me the influencer is coming off very entitled. She made over $10,000 in a month and i dont make that kind of money in a month.
My thing is I agree with a lot of the comments here, but she keeps throwing up that Gisselle is not "black" enough, like Idk that just seems super racist to me. So she is Afro Caribbean, so she is part Spanish and Part black, so she is not 100% black, but she did call her a colonizer, and I absolutely hate the fact she is putting her down for not being black enough. That just irks me. I'm part Native American but I just look "white", but Idc, I know what I am, and my other half is Black, like 100% black his parents were Jamaican and Barbadian they were black, but I'm darker than he is, and I think if I heard a woman like her tell him he was not black I'd probably just go off on her tbh. I think CC is money hungry and making this bigger than it is and she is showing her true colors and If I was a brand owner I'd never want to work with her.
Agreed, the fact that to some I may be considered white or white passing while to others I’m not is purely egregious and those comments reflect more on the person saying those things than the person themselves. She handled that situation so maliciously and so poorly and instead of being a grown up, she decided to lowball the GL owner and go after her features. Is this really what POC have to do to each other and play the white man’s game of dogging on each other because we pass or because we aren’t “full” or “pure” whatever that means? I’m P*al3stinian and it infuriates me to end when I see comments about content creators that say “well, this person’s only half, so they’re not really Pally enough.” Like no. Their performance and communication towards you is not affected by their genetics and racial appearance.
Eww.. glamlite doesn’t owe her anything. They met and spoke about a POSSIBLE collab. It never got that far and she’s trying to call them out and ask for more money???? byeeeeeeee
Girl bye I have second hand embarrassment for her
I believe Giselle. She's always posting behind the scenes and I believe she is sincere. 15% is definitely a fair deal. Regardless of how much you helped the brand make. This influencer just seems like she's greedy and trying to cancel a brand because she didn't get what she wanted.
The fact that the owner had to pause comments because of all the racially motivated harassment she was getting related to creators first post tells me all I would need to know about her future with Glamlite. She's never going to work with them again so her opinion on the company is negligible.
I feel like tiktok is its own ecosphere and has its own language and currency that doesn't exactly work in the real world. She's screaming at her camera that the owner didn't call her personally to suck up to her but she responded publicly AND aggressively twice.
As a recent customer of glamlite who is familiar with their indie status I sympathize with the creator but I think she also sensationalized it into unnecessary drama. I'd argue that her attempt to tear down a black woman and how they identify was worse than the owner not responding for multiple months. If she was talking about a campaign it would be one thing but she's asking to be paid more in commission retroactively for otherwise organic content.
I actually might argue that the Glamlite owner was a much easier person to attack than the luxury brands she features on her main content. I also wonder what demographic her audience is because I would find it hypocritical if she sent a bunch of white people from her audience to go attack a black woman
Also, I bet it will deter other brands from working with her as well. She comes off as difficult and entitled and to take it to a level that she did involving race is wild and no one is gonna want to touch that and take a chance.
@@CarrieScnel0926 well from my limited impression as a casual internet viewer. I like to watch a lot of RUclipsrs who focus on indie makeup including Glamlite. They have definitely had their complaints with indie makeup brands but usually if they call one out its because it's a brand that they used to be associated with or stopped sending out makeup to customers or something.
They usually focus on maintaining good relationships and not talking about the ones they don't like. Consider the fact that they make relationships where they know the brand owner personally. I think she might get business but indie makeup has been trending recently and I'd imagine they wouldn't work with her. She's better off with ELF or Morphe or whatever.
The content creator is delusional.
been waiting for this!!
i’m shocked at the influencers response to the brand’s response. i’m so sick and tired of therapy speak being thrown around and used to further self victimize
I’m with the owner in this argument. Your first video, the content creator made herself look bad with just her own words. I went in feeling bad for her, but then when I hear she didn’t have a contract and promoted them because she wanted to, she doesn’t deserve a dime after that. I hate influencers. They are so fake and money hungry. Not all of them, but most of them. I stopped buying things that an influencer recommended because of their greediness. I search the product on my own, and choose to buy without lining their pockets. I can’t afford to waste money on crappy products that “changed their life” anymore.
Clicked on this so fast
This is just another example of an entitled and self-absorbed influencer. Using language like "colonizer" against the business owner over something like this is off-putting, childish, and obnoxious. She knew exactly what she was doing by employing that racial victim narrative. Her decision to publicly criticize the owner and incite her audience to hurl insults and spread hate demonstrates a clear lack of professionalism in this industry. I'm tired of influencers who think the world revolves around them and throw tantrums when they don't get their way.
You literally took the words out of my mouth!
Yes! The second I heard that word all thoughts on influencer I immediately was negative. Big words thrown to someone who doesn't truly see what that means as she's to worried about about her commission rate!
Influencer is wrong in this situation. She made wild accusation talking about how much GL paid someone excessive amounts of money. I would sue her
Why does Chanel keep trying to make this a Black women vs them issue with Giselle is Black too? And she's not the only Black influencer who has been invited by Glamlite or promoted by Glamlite.
She just might be a race hustler
Why are we assuming giselle is black tho. I see Chanel’s point bc micro aggressions are REAL
@@itsniquenique45 Assuming what, babe? Afro Caribbean is a Black person from the Caribbean.
I do not think the owner has a history of taking advantage of young black women. this feels like a singular experience and I think a lot of what frustrates the creator is the miscommunication and that they do business different than she would prefer (they're not increasing her commission beyond what was standard for tik tok shop commissions).
The content creator is reaching now because she clearly is the kind of person who can never admit fault or lose face. She proved this when she was completely wrong about the male influencer being paid a million dollars.
The brand owner explained what happened. And CC used plenty of her own manipulation tactics.
The fact that the content creator had the audacity to call the owner a colonizer was so disgusting. Trying to create this divide among blackness against the black disapora is so wild. So had the owner been from the Virgin Islands, would she have called her a colonizer given that the USVI is a US territory, with a majority blk population who are also American citizens? Or better yet, would she have called Rihanna a colonizer since she is not African American??? Like make it make sense smh.
I believe Giselle. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The content creator definitely seems in the wrong! She also dismissed the owner ethnicity she's an afro latin that means she's black and latina! Calling her a colonizer is wild!!
she had the owners phone number she could have phoned her so it was more her fault in my opinion
Christian is a clout chaser.
i was WAITING for this part 2 😭🙏
I have been proven wrong. I’m usually siding with individuals rather than brands but this is messy. She got paid a lot for tiktok shop!
I think they both have done things wrong here. Influencer spread a wrong message that another influencer got paid a million. She never reached out to the brand to follow up. Both spoke out publicly instead of attempting to resolve privately. Brand owner didn’t communicate properly (she was definitely honest about this) and didn’t increase commission rate when it was agreed upon. imo it would have been best for influencer to STOP promoting the glamlite product and stop trying to do business with a company if she felt the company was in the wrong. Seems like the company didn’t feel she was that important anyway!
when I looked at the brand's messages. I think she responded publicly because she got a lot of racially motivated hate. she paused comments until she could respond. the public response came because the influencer made it public and she wanted to defend herself
Why would Glamlite respond privately if the influencer already made it public. She riled up her supporters to make racial slurs against the owner. There was no contract so there is nothing to negotiate.
@@neovalkyrie0 Ur right. I was thinking about when the influencer “left her on read” the business owner herself instead of the assistant could have reached out on her own via text privately at that point. The influencer is the one who should have tried to resolve it privately and she was in the wrong for that
@@blurrydog1 Christian made all of these videos during the launch of Glamlite's new products.
If Glamlite replied to her on May 10th, give or take, apologizing for the delayed response, I think that would have been the time to list all her grievances. I think it's a matter of picking your battles. If you care more about getting people to boycott a brand, air everything out publicly. However, if you are looking to negotiate more money, you're never going to get it by airing details that would normally be private publicly.
But if there isn't a contract they don't owe her any extra money. She feels entitled to more when she freely promoted them. The content creator then coming for her ethnicity as if she's not an afro latina is gross!
I was waiting for this video.
I lagged sorry!
@@Skelotim - it wasn’t a bad wait, I was just eager to hear Glamlite’s excuse or explanation. You do a great job!
I think the influencer felt like she was entitled and a bit greedy. I also think a follow up message would have been great too if she was genuinely interested in working with GL because mishaps do happen very often
My issues at the influencer acted as though she never got any money at all. As if she got cheated or something. But if she was already making commission and making tens of thousands of dollars?
I love two-parters ☺️
That girl is a bit much. Wants to talk all she wants but then expects glamlite to not make a public response when she made it public. Then she says I’m not begging but you brought it up about not being compensated fairly in her opinion.
13,000 out of 92,000 is a lot. Brand owner and workers still have to be paid, not all that is profit, there is cost of goods, etc.
The sponsorship for making all the money would have been nice and may have happened if she didn’t show herself like this. She may feel super important but brands do so much they forget about certain people they have emailed (I assume).
Glam lite owner seemed pretty genuine while creator seemed very dramatic and “give me what I want. I am owed.”
Awe I feel bad for glamlite now
Kept watching the video and got my answer Christian is a liar. Giselle is the only one with receipts so I believe her
omg I clicked the video and was instantly struck by how beautiful your skin and brows are!!
Christian has a story up using kendrick lamar's euphoria (Let me say I'm the biggest hater...I hate the way that you walk etc) it's playing over a text that says "I try to avoid drama because the mouth my mama gave me don't have a filter"
I don't think this drama ever reached this level of public hate and fanning the flames. I don't know if she was seeking clout or if she truly is upset and the more that time goes on she feels annoyed she was in this position. Either way I think Christian needs to log off and find friends to speak to because everything doesn't have to be a meme and ever problem doesn't have to have a public stage
She blocked anyone who wasn’t agreeing with her. She was doing this for clout. 🤦🏻♀️
@@neovalkyrie0 omg 😮WOW I believe that.
Plus, she made these videos in the middle of Glamlite launching new products. Glamlite doesn't have a big team I don't know what she was expecting. I hope she got the brand deals she was hoping for
@@neovalkyrie0I’ve not blocked a soul during this entire situation nor have I “limited” my comments
@@ChristianChanel girl you know you’re lying I was on one of your Tik Tok lives trying to make sense of what was going on and you were blocking anyone who disagreed with you.
I'm leaning towards believing glamlite, but I'm going to wait to see if anyone else speaks up either for or against to form more of an opinion
She brought the receipts 🧾😮
How do you know about a email that was drafted but never sent? 13:13
"It has come to our attention that the original email you referenced was DRAFTED but unfortunately NEVER sent by our former marketing assistant.
This seems like a old message since Glamlite said she came to them in 2023 and references a "recent(dec 20, 2023)" visit but that email is quoted as being sent "May 9 2024"......
Bc she looked and saw it in the drafts
I’m with the owner on this one. The creator was reviewing her products on her own. And she’s an adult. If she didn’t hear back from them she could have taken it into her own hands and reached out. She’s a big girl she can send an email or text if she wants to do that collab or get paid more.
If she took the 15% commission KNOWING she was "worth" more then thats on her. She should have stood her ground from DAY 1. PERIOD.
Damn. I’m impressed with this. Like I had been kind of irritated with glamlight because they rushed through like certain collabs but just her attitude in this makes me want to give glamlight a whole second look. Kudos
This influencer is so entitled! No contract, no responsibility.
I watched this video and the one before this, and I have to say I find Glamlite owner more credible in this situation.
Skeletim I think you did a good job at trying to remain objective. I agree with you that we can sympathize with the influencer, however Glamlite has receipts.
I personally think that the influencer has already been compensated, is now operating from a place of entitlement that isn’t due. Also the way she’s demonstrating her frustrations and grievances is very unprofessional and distasteful, and it may make other businesses take pause before collaborating with her. I think she knows how to add all the buzz words to unjustly make others triggered and upset with Glamlite. I think Glamlite took the high road and the influencer didn’t like that is now callling it “gaslighting” (buzz word).
This makes me so mad she doesn’t have to include u in anything just bc u made money !!! If it’s not in writing then shut it lol she was hostile from the beginning I wouldn’t want anything to do with her so no I wouldn’t reach out directly I would be done with her and just tell the public what’s up
First of all it’s not what you say it’s HOW you say it. The creators attitude is horrible. There’s a way to go about this situation without being a B.
I can see both sides.. like, as the influencer I would feel ghosted as well, but as the owner I can see that she is human and mistakes could happen and as long as she is making the steps to make things right for the influencer and hopefully will pay her what is owed.
I 100% agree!!!
She's not owed anything she got paid through tiktok. There's no contact to pay her anything or the rate she charges. I doubt they'll work with her in the future after this and it's understandable why. Also coming for the owners ethnicity is low and disgusting!
@@Atomicqueen9 oh wow! Yeah, I saw that she got paid from TikTok, however, I thought they were going to pay her 20% instead of the 15%. But, yeah if there is no physical contract than unfortunately there’s really nothing the influencer can do besides making her claims through social media but, you’re right they will most likely never work with her again and this may ruin her reputation and other companies may not want to work with her either. :/
This is out of your beauty community, but you should check out Dave Neal about a bachelor contestant! It's a wild paternity scandal! You have a big platform, and I would love for you to share your options with your community 😊 maybe people on your platform would like to hear about this let me know what you think?!?!
The influencer is doing tooooo much. If I was a company I wouldn’t want to work with her.
The CC sounds entitled. This is why I don’t trust most of these TT influencers. I don’t understand why she brought race into this o. Top of it.
I’m going to go purchase glamlite 🥰
They both should of reached out and handled the situation like adults.
The event invite may be a separate team from the marketing/social media team. I’m on the brand side. If person A has a problem with person B, person B may not know. So the onus is on person A to inform person B and remediate the situation.
Materialistic arguments drive me insane.
No matter who is wrong or right.
That's just me.
How you gonna be a micro influencer (under 200k) and be so demanding? Look at all the free, unpaid content all creators put out for years before they hit it big. She’s acting like she’s in Jackie Aina’s league and being disrespected. I would love to hear the dollar amount she asked for to be in this campaign, I’m sure it’s gotta be in the realm of delulu.
Love your passion!! Maybe repeating yourself would save time in your videos? 🤷🏻♀️ just an observation.
OMG 😱 the influencer made 13,000 for her initial post. If she not happy give me the money. I would have reached out to the company. I think she acting entitled.😡
Why would she change her commission after she is saying all this bullshit about her saying she doesn’t have budget lol if it’s not in writing then shut up u don’t have receipts
So she promoted it because she wanted to, made a whole thing about it with no proof just what she has to say all salty, I'm taking the owners side. Never heard of that creator in my life til now so she got her exposure I guess
Team Glamlite over here. Glamlite treats big AND small creators so well. Even if small creators give a meh review on a particular launch they dont get dropped. I respect that. They keep as small as 1k views on RUclips only type creators. C'mon.. you have to respect that. Probably just miscommunication.
Im with glamlite shes doing too much and they both black why she being called a colonizer isnt she Dominican they are black. People forget history but didn’t Cristopher Columbus who brought slaves to this part of the world guess where he landed that first time ? Dominican Republic im sorry i just needed to say this part because we using the race card very recklessly.
Girl goodbye. You know Dominicans do NOT claim their African ancestry
This!! After that it was over she's in the wrong and made this so much worse!!
@@Atomicqueen9 gurlll im so sick of this for real Africans made it to our islands before they set foot in America but we the lesser ones in their eyes for some reason . 70% of dominicans are black Africans set foot there first not by choice we know but Jesus know thy history please. Im PuertoRican and we know PR was essential port for slave trade when you grow up in the island you learn that we are a mix of three white black and taino . Thats literally our history black history i dnt get it
The influencer is placing the responsibility of systemic pay discrimination and oppression on a Black-passing, mixed-race Afro-Latina. That was really disheartening and disgusting and uncalled for - the owner doesn’t deserve to be harassed or bully online over a misunderstanding🫤
Thiss!!!
I don't even have Tiktok on my phone honestly, RUclips only. They upload all that shit here anyway
Nobody asked her to post anything she did that and met with glamlite and then they never followed up with her business is business they must not have liked something I’m with glamlite
The pure attitude of the influencer tells me she is just a jerk. Nope.
If it's sponsored content with a legal agreement of a fee then the person should get paid. If it's a content creator making videos HOPING to attract the attention of a brand then no payment.
I actually really respect the GlamLite owner, the influencer came off extremely entitled and her response to the owner proved that point.
Let me go buy some glamlite.
The influencer is right for knowing her worth however as a professional there is a way to stand on business and still be cordial. I’m going to get my bag regardless of any miscommunication. Once the owner admitted to it being their fault for “leaving” the email in the drafts that’s when u and ur manager should of started to draft up y’all’s email re-iterating what all it is that you needed to go ahead and put the beef behind u. But she decided to keep adding wood to the fire by doubling down. Again nothing wrong with both sides defending themselves and standing on business but idk why she kept bringing in race when the owner is Dominican she’s of black decent, so doubling down on that part seems like she just wants to stir up some drama when the owner over here fessing up to the email “ mistake” idk they’re both a bit wrong in this situation I do agree all of this could have been avoided had the owner just reached out to her with what all had happened and then heard the influencer out.
I’m sorry but Christian sounds entitled and greedy. Yes, the phone works both ways but you’re the influencer, just text the owner of GlamLite, you have her g-ddamn number. All because of a miss-sent email? Christian is not pushing any culture except divide, handle your beef offline and don’t be mad or fickle when the owner of GL decides to respond publicly when you decided to throw the ball in their court first and got heated because you weren’t expecting the ball to hit you back. 🤷🏻♂️
Didn’t she get paid tho? If there was 90k purchased on tik tok shop doesn’t she get a cut? Idk im not on tik tok just guessing
Everyone saying she’s entitled when black women are constantly underpaid and lowballed in the industry… crazy this was not the response with Nikki tutorials and tewfaced
i never once said she had a contract.. whether she got compensated another way or not does not have anything to do with it..
That Nikki situation is definitely a whole other thing. That was a contract collaboration and the formulation of the product was of low value. Nikki was at the height of her career at the time and didn’t even say the truth of what happened til years later. Nikki was definitely underpaid.

I do think the owner of the company should have reached out to her to fix this privately, and then came to the Internet to say how she was going to make it right -- how are you pledging to give away all this money when the creator is saying she still hasn't been paid?
I do agree that it should have been handled privately but i also understand that they wanted to protect their brand from all the lies and accusations that were being said.
She did get paid. Via Tik tok shop! She wanted higher commission but she never got it in writing. We also don't know what her rate is. Glamlite does collabs and the ip for those collabs is expensive so a part of the proceeds goes straight to those companies.
She got paid just not the amount she wanted. 😂
She wasn't in a contract she promoted them on her own. She also got paid through tiktok she isn't owned anything else. She wants more but if it wasn't in a contract that doesn't mean anything.
The cc came for her race saying she's not black and a colonizer she made it public Glamlite has ever reason to respond publicly. I bet they won't work with her again after this on top of other brands not wanting to work with her because of this.
I believe the influencer.
Creator is a beautiful woman. I suggest she move on.
Oh hey it’s the brand owner who blocked me on IG for calling her out on Reddit for deleting comments about how she sent my friends a faulty palette that caused burning sensations to their eyes 😂 I think my opinion might be a little biased because of that, but I totally see where she’s coming from. The influencer jumped the gun. Without a contract in place, sorry but you’re not entitled to anything! I absolutely agree that black creators/black people in general deserve equal pay, and this brand has always been shady af to me, I no longer support them due to my own experience with the brand owner. I just hope Christian can learn from this experience and pray she gets to work with brands that do value her worth enough to compensate her without the run around bs, because that’s definitely not fair. I would probably be feeling some type of way about this in the same situation, but that’s why contracts are important :/
As much as i love Glamlite, i have heard their customer service is abhorrent. I really hope they improve that because i love all the palettes i have from them. Im sorry your friend received a faulty palette.
I want this content creator to be my manager!!!! She is well-spoken and aggressive for what she wants. I like this because i feel as a black woman, too often we have to always take the high road and not speak up. I like her confidence and drive. I think sometimes this is necessary to demand what you know you are worth.
No one is stopping her from making her own brand. Then she can see for herself how hard it is to actually run a successful business. 🙌🏼
@@neovalkyrie0 Oh yeah! Sometimes ppl dont understand what really goes on behind the scenes and how much work it takes to own a brand.
Na she was wrong for calling the owner a colonizer when she's afro latina. She also just ruined her opportunity to make more money by this whole situation. What brands want to work with her after this.
Glamlite just like many other brands and production companies just LOVE to use “ miscommunication , and that employee is no longer with the company” as an excuse for dropping the ballon payments and $$$ talk and negotiations
Unfortunately people not in the industry will think the influencer is at fault or is not appreciative etc but glamlite needs to tighten things up and not be so messy.
This is all so annoying
I think they’re both wrong
