Candace Cameron Bure is shutting down the naysayers criticizing her charitable efforts in the wake of the Los Angeles-area fires—some of which are still burning.
The Full House alum has been using her massive platform to help boost organizations that are accepting donations and/or offering free supplies and amenities for fire victims, but not everyone sees the importance of certain products, like “moisturizer and makeup.”

As the actress took to Instagram again on Tuesday, Jan. 14, to offer an update on her efforts. She revealed that, while she’s heading back to work, she will still post links and highlights for her followers to contribute to the effort however they can—and unfortunately, negativity broke through the praise most fans had for her generosity.

“I really respect you and love the help you’re doing for the community,” one follower began. “However, when I heard you ask for donations of moisturizer and makeup I couldn’t believe it,” they continued, calling the beauty products “the least important thing in a crisis like this.”
Cameron Bure took the time to acknowledge the concern, pointing out that she had previously responded to it in her Instagram Stories, too.
“Moisturizer and make up ARE important,” she emphasized, explaining, “Women still have to go to work, they want to feel like themselves.”
“Don’t be so judgemental as to what other people need in times of crisis,” she added. “Be kind.”
While Cameron Bure no longer lives in Los Angeles, she was born there and lived in the area for many years.
“Our sweet Palisades is destroyed,” she mourned after the fires started last week. “So many memories.”
