- One of these is like Met Gala, and the other
one is like I'm going to my high school prom.
(upbeat music)
- Hi, I'm Ryann.
- And I'm Swasti.
- My name is Sara.
And I'm Destinee.
- And today we're going to see if we
can tell the difference between
cheap and expensive lipsticks.
- I think we can because we're both women of luxury.
- Yes, oh yes.
I enjoy a good lipstick. I like some color.
I like some pwop!
- I'll use the same two things I always use.
I don't necessarily experience a wide range.
- I used to be really into the liquid matte,
now I'm full on, just the classic.
I like a solid lipstick.
- Who hurt you?
- I feel like I use such a mixture of
like inexpensive and expensive lipsticks,
that like they all feel the same to me.
- Yeah
- I don't think I've ever sat down and
paid attention to which one is which.
- I should do better about knowing
how much I'm spending on things
but if I'm like, it fits in the category of liquid matte
and a color I want, then I'm like I deserve it.
(funky music)
- Oh wow, what a huge difference in price in price.
- That is a huge difference.
- Bring it on, bring on the lipstick.
(funky music)
- This is canister A.
- Now that they're in front of me,
this is going to be a little tougher than expected.
- [Swasti] That's a nice color.
- [Ryann] It is really cute.
- This is supposed to be a solid lipstick,
and A looks a little, yeah, is very watery.
- A little transparent.
- This one does smell like bubble gum,
which is like, is this the cheap one?
- Yeah, I was gonna say, this one
smells like high fructose corn syrup.
- This one smells like the room in
your house that you're not supposed to go into.
- Ah okay.
It's really smooth.
- It's really pigmented.
- It is very pigmented.
- I have to say it does feel nice.
- Looking at the way it is applied,
I'm gonna go ahead and guess that this is the cheap one.
Simply because, it doesn't spread well and
also the color doesn't like blast.
- I do like the color.
- If you drank or ate anything,
I feel like it would come off.
- Oh definitely.
- It feel for sure like a little bit greasy.
- If you turn around and tell me this
is the expensive one I'm gonna flip this table.
Because if this is $50 you need to get
your money back because this is not worth $57.

- Alright, should we dive into it?
- Yeah.
- It feels like it's going to last a lot longer.
It feel like it has a lot more strength to it.
- I can see that it looks pigmented. It looks rich.
- Color on this one, I think is much nicer.
A little bit more mature.
- I don't know why, but it makes
me feel like Marilyn Monroe.
- It smells like my grandma, honestly.
It screams, "let me speak to your manager."
That is the scent, that is the scent it has.
- [Swasti] It does.

- I like this, I like this a lot.
This gotta be, this is the expensive one.
- This feels very thick and rich.
Whereas the other one felt very watery and greasy.
- It does feel a little richer on the lips.
It doesn't feel as sticky.
- There is literally no way.
- M'kay, let me look at myself.
Let me stare deep into my soul to figure it out.
- Just the way it went on, the scent of it.
It smells like it's complaining at me already.
- It's the smell that's throwing me off.
This very much smells like drug store beauty supply.
- However, this one, it smells
like a little strawberry tart,
which makes me think it's for children.
- My guess, B is the expensive one.
- Yeah.
- Yeah, my very final, un-confidant answer is
B is the expensive one.
(drum roll)
(trumpets)
- Yes! Yes, yes yes.
- Wow, we did it!
- We did it.
- [Ryann] Now wet and wild, I've definitely heard.
So this is the cheap one.
- For only .99 cents.
- It did a great job.
- Not bad.
- Never heard of Sisley this looks exclusive.
- Oh my god! It's in a little sexy nightgown!
(light saxophone music)
- Wow
- Pachoo!
- Why are there so many layers to get into this lipstick?
- It's like a Russian doll, you just
keep opening and opening.
- This could be $20 cheaper, if you just sold this.
(laughter)
(funky music)
- Okay
- It looks nice.
- It smells like shoe polish.
- Mhmm, this smells like pure sugar.
- Let's do like a...
- It's like baby powder.
It's like a little fresh.
- We'll try B first.
- Oh!
I am not mad a this.
- You know what? It's very nice.
- Oh, that applies nice. You know what this is fancy.
$57 though? That is such expensive lipstick.
- I know.
- Does it last forever? For $57 I want
the lipstick to jump onto my face.
- Seems expensive to me.
- I don't know, this dried quicker
than I could apply it.
- It's a little sticky.
- It's definitely flaking a bit, as it dries though.
- It doesn't feel right. Something
inside me is telling me it's not right.
- Yeah, it's too dry.
- Wow! Did we get bamboozled?
- I think we did, cause yeah, it's flaking. Look at this.
- This hurts.
- Yeah.

- This one I like because it smells like chocolate.
- Oh! Okay. Ah, I'm confused.
Because this one feels thicker,
which makes me like oh maybe it is more expensive.
- Oaaaaahhhh
- Oh wow this also feels really good.
- Yeah, this actually feels good.
- I feel like the color seems to spread.
Which is surprising, because one of these
has to be cheap and I feel like
both of them spread really well.
- Yeah, I can already tell you this one
is much more expensive.
Um, just because of the feel.
It feels very moisturizing.
- It feels good, I like that gloss though.
- It's a little weird that it doesn't dry.
It feels almost like, maybe they
don't have the formula to make it dry.
Because it's the cheap one, like
how do you live with this on.
- I don't know how you'd live with that one.
- I don't know how you'd live with either.
But like this one it like never dries,
so you're just goopy all day.
- Mmnn, I'm going with luxury.

- Wow, I'm confused by which ones
cheap and which one is expensive.
- Yeah, same.
- I'm going with A, as definitely the expensive one.
- I feel like there might be a twist.
- If so, it's not $57 worth of a twist.
- Ugh, just because I like how this feels better
I'm gonna say this is the more expensive one.
But I'm probably wrong.
- Coverage wise, this seems to last a little longer.
- There's no holes, like you said.
- Yeah, the other one it felt like
you had to put a little more in.
(drum roll)
(trumpets)
- Wow, yeah that was tough!
This 99 cents is worth it.
- Thank you, thank you, thank you.
- This is Rimmi Rose, 99 cents.
So this isn't the same color as the one in here,
but it's the same packaging. And I mean,
it looks like a 99 cent store lipstick.
- I mean it's cool that like sell like
matte liquid lipstick at the 99 cent store.
- Yeah, 'cause I wasn't getting that as a child.
- Tom Ford, that makes sense. It's like sleek,
and it like feels like it would be expensive.
- It's very heavy, which is nice.
- It's not $57 nice to me, this is
like 6 party packs at Taco Bell,
so that's why I'm like, I don't get it.
- I will say that this has changed me a bit,
because that first one was hard. I was like,
I'm not sure, what is cheap and what is expensive.
- And I think that there is a difference between
like a 99 cent and like 20 bucks and up,
but I don't think that you need to go all the
way to $57 to get, like no offense Tommy,
but like I think that there are comparable products
for probably like a little bit less money.
