Mama June appeared in the video that was uploaded on Friday, November 25, with unkempt hair, a red face, and eyelashes. June promoted the small business Eminence Beauty in the video before having their experts do her eyelashes. The TLC celebrity advised her fans to go to the store if they needed any eye care services. June's eyes did seem more attractive after the treatment, but her face was still covered in red blotches, and her hair was still pulled back in a sloppy bun.
