Comedian Tanya Hennessy has left some fans scratching their heads over the ‘unnecessarily simple’ name of one of her new eye shadows.
The radio and TV presenter released her new Priceline makeup range including an eye shadow palette with humorous names for each shade including ‘unsupportive bra’ and ‘lower back pain’.
However, Tanya said some were ‘furious’ over one colour which she jokingly labelled ‘brown’.
People were confused as to why she gave the other colours creative names but was very literal when it came to the brown shade and offered some alternative naming suggestions.
Tanya noticed followers on TikTok and Instagram understood the joke however it went over the heads of people on Facebook.

The 38-year-old told FEMAIL it wasn’t the first time fans on Facebook haven’t understood her humour.
‘All the platforms are so different and people follow me on different social channels for different things. Most of the time it crosses over well, but every now and again it does not translate,’ she said.
‘Facebook is older, it’s a slightly different crowd – but its one of my faves as its where I started.’
She shared an image of her ‘Get Bready’ eye shadow palette from her Breakfast at Hennessy’s collection with MP Cosmetics.
The four shades are amusingly named ‘unsupportive bra’, ‘cake for dinner’, ‘lower back pain’ and ‘brown’.

‘You get it right? It’s a joke because all the other ones are intricate and that one’s just brown,’ she explained in a TikTok clip.
‘The name ‘Brown’ should have been ‘Toasted’ just a suggestion,’ one woman replied.
‘Literally just ‘brown’, so unnecessarily simple,’ another wrote.
‘Brown should be burnt toast,’ a third added.
Tanya, who first went viral in 2017 for her ‘realistic’ makeup tutorial, took to TikTok to vent her frustrations over Facebookers not getting her joke.
‘On Facebook people are like, ‘You’ve really given up, it should be a funny one, brown should be funny, can I suggest a few things?’,’ she laughed.
‘The joke is that it’s brown because it’s brown. It’s all these ridiculous colours and then it’s brown because brown is just brown.’
Thousands thought both the confused Facebook users and the names of Tanya’s eye shadows were hilarious.
‘First time didn’t get it but wasn’t furious about it. Like what it’s make up they are upset over?’ one viewer asked.
‘It’s because Facebook is full of Boomers,’ another pointed out.
‘Brown is the funniest one!’ a third said and fourth agreed: ‘Brown made me laugh so so hard. Poor Facebook people’.
