Snitchery Is Her Own Sleep Paralysis Demon
There’s a high chance that you’ve been mindlessly scrolling through TikTok and Snitchery appeared before you. Her videos almost always start the same, a boppy song, a girl getting ready – makeup brush in hand – before a jump scare as she transforms into something otherworldly.
And I mean that in all seriousness: Snitchery is best known for transforming into Thomas the Tank Engine, a sexy minion or terrifying interpretations of Doctor Who characters. A far cry from her fellow beauty influencers who play politely in the ‘clean girl aesthetic’ space.
Which is why I was so excited to nab some time with Snitchery (real name, Eleanor) to chat about how she stumbled into a beauty career with over five million followers. She dialled in directly from her studio apartment with a light red glow on her neck – remnants of last night’s beauty look that hadn’t quite budged. She’s smiley, engaged and excited to share what reality looks like for a full-time beauty influencer that tackles the industry from a completely different angle.
Here’s what she had to say.
The first ever beauty product Snitchery bought.
Of course I needed to know the first product in her beauty aresnal, and she shared the exact pallette she believes was her first purchase.

How Snitchery built her beauty career.
With some seriously impressive stats under her belt, I wanted to know if this is where Eleanor always wanted to take her career.
@itspunkee talent, persistance and a whole lot of inflatable tubing #snitchery #snitcherychallenge #makeup #makeupartist #beauty #beautytok ♬ Illusion – Dua Lipa
Snitchery’s first viral video.
Every content creator can remember the first video that went absolutely nuts. This is Snitchery’s story of just that.

The moment Snitchery met Lady Gaga.
Eleanor admits that she’s rubbish at spotting celebrities out and about, but one celebrity run-in had a huge impact on her.

Snitchery sleeps with her scary costumes at the end of her bed.
In a twist that will likely induce major nightmares, Snitchery keeps a lot of her costumes in her studio apartment, finding some of the creepiest ones lurking at the foot of her bed.

Fortunately, she’s not really spooked by them, claiming she is her own sleep paralysis demon – which is a troubling thought, but one that Snitchery laughed it off nonetheless.
