The Girl Who Leaked Jeffree Star’s Stolen Concealers on Facebook Speaks Out for the First Time
Last week, Jeffree Star took to YouTube to reveal that his shipping warehouse was broken into and $2.5 million in new and unreleased product was stolen.
Following the burglary, the stolen Magic Star concealers were put up for sale in a beauty group on Facebook. The poster faced immediate backlash from fans who were angry she posted the goods before Jeffree could even announce them. Now, she's finally speaking out.
Following the wave of fury from Beauty Twitter, the poster has made a full apology on her now-deactivated Facebook. In it, she talks about the guilt she feels for robbing (figuratively) Jeffree of the chance to announce the product on his terms.
"I really do truly love Jeffree Star & his products. [Which is] why when I saw them I was over the moon & wanted them. I figured everyone wanted them too but I was wrong. I didn’t think of the selfish act that would be to him, his team & his brand," she wrote.
"I’m so sorry for the post, I’m not sorry because I got caught because frankly I took it down before the show started but I’m sorry I took his moment. I’m sorry you guys saw them before he got to hype them up. I can assure everyone I had ABSOLUTELY no bad intentions. I was selfish & I didn’t consider his or anyone else’s feelings when I posted."

She also shares how she got access to the stolen concealers in the first place. Apparently, it was through another sketchy Facebook post.
"I had found a post on Facebook Marketplace of a lady … I contacted her, I asked her if I buy a large amount would she give a discount & asked if they were authentic. She said yes, she gets them for a supplier in the warehouse who sent her PR kits & can send more," she explained. "She had blue blood & many more of his products but the fact she could get something not released was amazing to me."
Even though she claims she supports Jeffree Star, the makeup mogul is not planning on forgiving her any time soon. In his tell-all video about the burglary, Jeffree addressed the seller directly, calling her apology "dumb."
