The 9-second video has gained 63,100 views online with hilarious comments by people who thought it was true. However, the video is apparently fake. According to sources, the earthquake makeup clip refers to a supposedly fake viral video by YouTuber Ali J in which an earthquake interrupts the recording of a makeup tutorial.
The video received over 990,000 views on YouTube in two months. Ali J shared a video of a makeup tutorial, claiming that it was filmed during the July 5th, 2019, 7.1-magnitude earthquakes in Los Angeles, California.
