In the caption, she acknowledged eating beauty products is 'controversial,' and stated that children under six weren't allowed to watch her content. Some concerned fans commented on the video to say that she was setting a bad example for younger followers, and about the possible toxicity of the products.

Another said: 'It's still toxic, be careful.' The world of 'mukbang' - where online creators share videos of them eating (often excessive) amounts of food while chatting to followers - is being increasingly criticized as it continues to grow in popularity. The trend is also tragically linked to the deaths of at least three influencers, some as young as 24, in the last three years. Worried experts have expressed concerns that the content normalizes poor and unhealthy diets and could lead to potential nutrition deficiencies.

Her family announced the news of her passing in a statement posted on her social media account. It read: "It is with deep sorrow that we inform you that our treasured girl of beauty-product mukbangs, Guava Beauty, put down her brushes and flew off to start a new channel in heaven on May 24, 2025."

Her signature videos featured her attempting to consume various beauty products, including lipstick, blush, face masks, and cotton pads.
