The post stated that she died after "battling with sudden ailments," though it did not specify any further details about her cause of death
The content creator was best known for tasting cosmetic products as she reviewed them, though a friend of Shuishui's claimed this habit was not related to her deathBeauty influencer Guava Shuishui, known as Guava Beauty online, has died, per a statement uploaded to her Instagram account with over 12,000 followers.
Per an English translation of the post's caption, the content creator died on May 24 after "battling" with "sudden ailments." The announcement did not further specify her cause of death.
The statement referenced how her death "came suddenly" but noted that she "endured every difficult moment, just like she has always been — hard-working, serious, and shining."
"Thank you to everyone who has liked, commented, and laughed with her, and thank you for your love and support. She really keeps it in her heart and cherishes it very much," a translation of the announcement continued. "Guava Shuishui just changed places and continued to shine."
Shuishui was celebrated for her work in both the beauty and food spaces online. She regularly tried snacks and reviewed makeup for her audience, though she was also known for tasting various cosmetics as she tested them.
Nearly a week before her death was announced, a friend of Shuishui's spoke out in response to "so much false information" she had seen online. She posted an Instagram to "clarify a few things," per an English translation of her caption.
She stated that when Shuishui was first admitted to the hospital, they confirmed that her medical team "clearly ruled out any possibility related to the so-called 'food cosmetics,'" likely referring to the influencer's tendency to lick or bite beauty products. The friend also noted how Shuishui "always publicly stressed" that consuming cosmetics is "forbidden."
"She is responsible to the audience and is very cautious about the content. In response to the ongoing personal attacks, lies, and even malicious mockery," the translated post continued. "These comments have caused tremendous emotional stress and harm to her family and our close friends. Family and friends have suffered more pain and shock than imagined during this time, and we ask everyone to stop all malicious speculation and stigma."

On Friday, June 6, the Duchess of Sussex, 43, shared a sweet video of herself, the Duke of Sussex, 40, and Prince Archie, 6, exploring Disneyland. 'Thank you @disneyland for giving our family two days of pure joy!,' Meghan captioned the Instagram post, set to Peggy Lee's 'It's a Good Day.' The video began with Lili wearing a sparkly blue baseball cap and a colorful sleeveless dress while holding her mom's hand as she led the way through the California theme park.

Mariah Carey is back to heat up summer with a new bop — 20 years after ‘We Belong Together'
For years, Mariah Carey has reigned as the Queen of Christmas. With that unsnatchable crown, the 56-year-old diva has seemed perfectly content to chill until defrosting herself right after Halloween to rule the holiday season with 'All I Want for Christmas Is You.' But now MC is heating up a different season — summer — with her first proper new single since her last studio album, 2018's 'Caution.' And 'Type Dangerous' — released to the delight of Lambs all over on Friday — threatens to be one of the bops of summer. Advertisement 4 Mariah Carey is back with 'Type Dangerous,' her first proper single since her 2018 album 'Caution.' Ethan James Green Yes, 20 years after Carey owned the summer of 2000 with 'We Belong Together,' she's back. It's not so hard to believe — you can never keep a good diva down. Advertisement 'Type Dangerous' marks another comeback for Carey after 'We Belong Together' — from her blockbuster album 'The Emancipation of Mimi' — put Carey back on top after a period of relative decline. Arriving just one week after the 20th anniversary edition of 'The Emancipation of Mimi,' 'Type Dangerous' sounds as if it could've been on that legendary 2005 LP. Sampling the Eric B. & Rakim classic 'Eric B. Is President,' it pays homage to Carey's history as one of the first pop artists to really embrace hip-hop and collaborate with rappers, going all the way back to Ol' Dirty Bastard on the 'Fantasy' remix. 4 Mariah Carey's new single, 'Type Dangerous,' previews her upcoming album that is being teased as 'MC16.' Dennis Leupold Advertisement And with that bumping bass line, it sounds like New York in the summertime. The lyrics might get a little silly for a certified icon in her fabulous 50s — should she really be dealing with a 'computer boy toy' who's 'on the web hacking other girls' files'? — but Carey can still pull off silly as well as sassy. (And hey, she doesn't celebrate birthdays but anniversaries, so really she's ageless.) 4 Mariah Carey recently filmed a video for her new single 'Type Dangerous.' Instagram/ Mariah Carey Advertisement 4 Mariah Carey received the Icon Award at the iHeartRadio Music Awards in March. Getty Images for iHeartRadio Hearing her coo that 'I like 'em dangerous' while 'I don't have time for the rigmarole' doesn't have to make any kind of sense, but it sure is fun when the beat is this sweet. Perhaps that jolt of joy comes from the fact that 'Type Dangerous' was co-written by Carey's rumored new beau — and Bruno Mars' partner in Silk Sonic. It sounds like mama is having a good time — and so do we. While it remains to be seen if Carey can still hold her own on the charts with the Sabrina Carpenters of the world — the 'Espresso' singer also just dropped a new summer bop, 'Manchild' — it's great to hear her sounding fierce and refreshed. And apparently there is more new music on the way from her upcoming album being teased as 'MC16.' Consider us obsessed — again.

Jason Biggs Recalls Climbing Into Trash Can at 4 A.M. to Snort Cocaine amid Addiction: ‘Absolutely Insane'
Jason Biggs opened up about his struggle with drugs and alcohol during the height of his career while living in Los Angeles The American Pie star recalled climbing into the trash can to retrieve cocaine he had already thrown away He said he was able to get his health on track after moving to New York, and has been sober since 2017Jason Biggs is sharing one of his 'craziest stories' with addiction, and the moment he climbed into a trash can to snort cocaine. The 47-year-old actor appeared on the June 4 episode of the Well with Arielle Lorre podcast and opened up about the height of his drug and alcohol addiction. Following the success of American Pie early in his career, Biggs said that with fame, he 'learned very quickly' how rare it was for people to say no to him while he was living in Los Angeles, which escalated his substance abuse. 'Being 22 with money in the bank and coke in my pocket and no one saying no to me,' he said. Biggs told Lorre that when he met and married his wife Jenny Mollen, he was using drugs and drinking alcohol much more than she knew. He was 'blocking everything out with drugs and alcohol… and it just got worse and worse.' The Orange Is the New Black actor then recalled one of the lowest points of his addiction. 'I lived in the gray area, but I have 'snorting dust off the floor' stories or similar to that,' he began. 'One of my craziest stories was, I was doing cocaine by myself in my house, and I did what I said was the last line.' Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Biggs said it was 4 a.m. and Mollen was asleep. In an attempt to stop himself and go back to bed, he threw the drugs into the trash can. 'Within 15 minutes, as soon as my last bump is wearing off, I'm like, what am I doing? I go into my trash, and I take it out and I do a line,' he said. In another attempt to stop, Biggs said he went outside and put the rest of the cocaine into the trash can in front of their house. 'OK, I'm done,' he told himself before going back inside and grabbing an Ambien to help him sleep. 'Before I took the Ambien, I was like, 'One more,'' he said. 'I went outside and I climbed into the trash bin and got the bag of coke and went upstairs and did another line. I was like, 'What the f— am I doing?

Biggs said that he constantly struggled with sobriety while living in Los Angeles. 'I would find myself alone and isolating and I would find myself breaking whatever sobriety I had. It was incredibly fragile, obviously, in those early days,' he said. Biggs explained that despite having met some great people in L.A., living there wasn't good for his health, and the environment made his drinking worse. He said moving to New York was life-changing and a 'healthier place' for him to get his life on track. 'There's something about the energy of New York that gives me something, that fills me in a way that Los Angeles couldn't. But I do believe coming to New York helped me. So, I did fall off the wagon here, but that was seven and a half years ago and it's been going well." Biggs has been sober since 2017 and shared his first anniversary of sobriety on Instagram in October 2018. 'I first tried to get sober over 5 years ago, when the weight of my obsession with booze and drugs became too heavy for me to handle,' he wrote alongside a photo of a silver coin that read, 'To thine own self be true' and has the engraved words 'unity, service, recovery.' 'Turns out this s--- is hard,' he said at the time. 'After some fits and starts, I've managed to put together one year of sobriety. I'm as proud of it as anything in my life.' Biggs concluded by encouraging those who are also battling addiction not to give up. 'If you're struggling, know there's help,' the star wrote. 'Don't be ashamed. We can do this. 💪🙏.'
