hey guys what's up Ilana here welcome
back to my channel
so in today's video I was so excited to
share my top favorite red lipsticks for
women of color so this is going to be a
mix of like liquid lipsticks and regular
lipsticks I don't know I just feel like
red lips are so empowering and sexy and
if you give the woman the right red lip
she can conquer the world okay before we
get into the video please take a moment
to subscribe to my channel so you guys
don't miss any of my future uploads and
don't forget to bring that notification
bell so that you are notified whenever I
upload a video so I actually have four
lip colors to share with you guys today
I did have five but for some reason I
can't find the fifth one I don't know I
have to figure out which one my friend
stole it from me just another tip is you
want to make sure to exfoliate your lips
and moisturize them before you put on
any lipstick because that is going to
help to keep your red lipstick from
cracking and drying out and from
shifting and we do not want that because
that takes away from the old entire sexy
factor okay now just as a little
disclaimer I always like to wear a liner
with my red lipsticks normally I'll go
in with Mac's night moth or vino
depending on how plum I want my red to
be so the first lipstick that I'm gonna
go ahead and go in with is going to be
an oldie but goodie this is max Ruby woo
if you have been a Mac fan for ever Mac
was like the first makeup brand that I
ever bought this was the ish okay Ruby
woo I think this is my second one that I
ever bought in my life and I still have
it which is probably a bad thing this
thing has been through a job
okay the only thing that I really don't
like about regular standard lipsticks is
that they are so fragile okay I feel
like I've dropped this or maybe I left
it in the car and it's summer or
something and it completely looks like
crap now but it still works so I'm gonna
go ahead and put it on this is my vino
I'm going to go ahead and line my lips
so you guys can see what
[Music]
okay so this is review whoo I really
like Ruby woo because it does have a
matte finish but it's still creamy this
is you know one of their mats and it's
really creamy Ruby woo does dry and it
tends to crack I'll specifically omit in
the middle you'll start to see after a
couple hours it'll start to ball up and
crack in the middle you usually have to
reapply it so I really do love removable
because I like the color is perfect it
perfectly complements women of color
it's like a deep blue based red and it
just is gorgeous
[Music]
now my second favorite red lip color is
going to be Sephora collections lip
stain in number zero one I believe this
one is called I don't know what it's
called doesn't have it on the bottom but
it is number zero one I feel like it's
called always red but I will double
check that and I will list it in the
description box below so please guys do
not forget to check the description box
because I will have links to all these
lipsticks down below in case you are
interested in upgrading your makeup kit
ok another disclaimer you probably
should be using a sharpened pencil when
you're lining your lips it will
everything will just come out so much
better trust me but I'm lazy right now
you guys I don't really feel like doing
this like 11 2 o clock at night and
she's not here for it ok so this is the
Sephora collection and number zero one
and I'm gonna go ahead and apply this
[Music]
okay we're gonna give this a second to
try it because with the Sephora ones
what I've noticed is that it takes a
moment for it to dry down it does dry
down to a complete matte and it does not
transfer anything like that but it does
take a couple of seconds for it to dry
down so we're gonna let it do its thing
okay so how do you guys think this one
[Music]
oh yeah well my thing that I would like
to mention about this 4:01 is that it is
a lip stain so it is going to stay on
your lips for a while it's definitely
not gonna budge she's gonna need to use
some sort of makeup remover to get it
off my next favorite red lipstick for
women of color is going to be the Lime
Crime a red velvet this I think was like
the first red liquid lipstick that I got
and I fell completely in love with this
I don't wear it as often as I do Sephora
and the last one I'm gonna tell you guys
about but this is like top four of my
favorite red lipsticks of all time
[Applause]
[Music]
now I like lime crimes formula because
it is super creamy and it smells like
cake this color is really rich and it is
long-lasting it stays on for a long time
and I don't know I just think this color
really complements my skin tone what do
you guys think
[Music]
and last but not least know that my lips
are all overall okay
I saved the best for last my top
favorite red lipstick of all time at
this moment is anastasia beverly hills
in Sarafine oh my god this liquid
lipstick is the freakin bomb I picked it
up by mistake
fell in love with it and the rest is
just history this is my go-to red
lipstick whenever I am trying to be on a
thousand na okay so let me just try it
with you guys can see what it looks like
[Music]
first of all the corners of my mouth is
actually a couple of minutes okay so
we're gonna let that dry down but while
I drag down I want to tell you guys a
little bit about why I love the
Anastasia Beverly Hills liquid lipstick
in the colour Sarafine so much first off
I love Anastasia's liquid lipsticks
because for some reason they make my
lips look more plump I feel like I don't
know it could be just something I made
up in my head but to me I feel like they
make my lips to look a little bit more
full and I don't know I really just like
it
[Music]
these lipsticks are the most expensive
out of the four that I showed you these
were in about $20 I think and I mean
this was the first liquid lipstick that
I bought from Anastasia and it was tough
number one you gave a lot in this tube
compared to this which i think is like
around $17 and this one which is I think
between twelve and fourteen dollars so
the amount of liquid lipstick that
you're getting and this tube is
definitely a lot more than the rest of
them um you know the same night so this
one you can see you're getting a little
bit more for your book also I like the
formula is very creamy
it really doesn't flake up on me the
only time that I'll see if that'll flake
up is if I'm like drinking something so
if I'm drinking and like water is
constantly hitting it then I'll start to
see it kind of crack in the middle and I
just have to go reapply it but for the
most part this stays on for hours
without me ever having to go and reapply
and that is especially when you're busy
like that is such a benefit it transfers
slightly I definitely have noticed that
on a regular just when awareness and I
kissed one day there's something she
will have like you know slightly red
lips so I definitely do see that it
transfers a little bit but I mean who
cares this lipstick is perfect I love it
I love the color I love everything about
it and yeah what do you guys think about
this color drop for comment down
let me know which one of these lipsticks
are your favorite that's all I have for

lipstick choices for women of color
