‘That would never be condoned’.

Inglot Ireland have taken to social media to clear up controversy about one of its makeup artists.

The statement was released this morning after a video online – thought to be a Boomerang –  showed one of the company’s artist driving will simultaneously holding a brush and highlighter, applying the makeup to their face.

After numerous complaints, and after the video was posted on the Blogger Unveiled Instagram page, Inglot made the following statement.

“Inglot Ireland is aware of a video of an Inglot Make Up Artist engaging in unacceptable behaviour, shared on social media, that would never be condoned by us, her employer.

“We take this matter very seriously and we are working with HR to take all the appropriate steps to deal with the situation.

“Inglot Ireland values our close online community and we are grateful that this was brought to our attention.”

The video was on the MUA’s Instagram Stories, but was taken down. It was then uploaded onto the Bloggers Unveiled Instagram account, who call out bloggers and influencers for photoshopping and inappropriate behaviour.

Many fans of the makeup brand have been commenting on the post, however the views are vastly different with some writing that the outcome of the video has been too harsh.

What do you think about it?
