Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown has apologised after recently coming under fire for sharing a bizarre makeup tutorial video.

In the vid, aimed at promoting her new Florence by Mills makeup line, the 15-year-old attempts to demonstrate how she uses face mist, scrub, face wash, moisturiser and lip oil.
The only problem is that in said tutorial, it’s v. obvious that she is using air, rather than her products.
See for yourself:
The video was met with immediate backlash from fans who took to social media to call her out.
Punters accused her of trying to dupe them into buying products that she may or may not even use.
“I can’t believe she’s literally just dry rubbing her hands together and rubbing her face. Like … is this a prank?” one fan asked on Reddit, while another wrote, “WTH was this. Do brands really think we don’t have eyes, like for real?”
Now, Brown has taken to Instagram to apologise for the controversial video by sharing a series of notes.
“I’m still learning the best way to share my routines as I get to know this space better — I’m not an expert,” the star began. “I thought doing a quick video replicating my personal process for that night was okay, but that’s not what was conveyed. I understand, I appreciate all of your feedback on this journey, please keep sharing your thoughts and I will too! ily guys x #loveandlight.”

Brown also disabled the commenting function on the post but it’s unclear if it was disabled from the moment of posting or if she removed access and deleted negative comments after the fact.
