- How long can lipstick really last?
- Let's talk about that.
(groovy theme music)
Good mythical morning.
- If you want us to answer your questions,
follow our prompts on Facebook, Tumblr, or Twitter.
- Heather Hogan asks, are there
any actual kiss-proof lipsticks?
- Well, first of all Heather,
you've come to the right place.
I mean you could have asked anyone on the internet
this question, and you chose us, wise choice.
So the way that we're going to determine if there are
any actual kiss-proof lipsticks, we're gonna take it
a lot further than kissing, we're gonna put some lipsticks
to the test, it's time for Let's Find the Lip-Stickage
with the Least Lip-Slippage.
- Okay, here we are.
- Hi.
- They Mythical Crew has done some preliminary research
to determine two of the top long-lasting lipsticks
on the market, and we're each trying them on,
and gonna run em through the wringer.
I've got the drug store brand that is Maybelline's
Super Stay 24 Color, available for only $8.99
at your local drugstore.
- And I'm keeping it classy, I've got the high-end
Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick, priced 24 dollars.
Now, so drug store and high end, and we're gonna put them
through the exact same tests, and we think the best way
to test the long-lastedness of a lipstick is
to put it through the stages of a date,
and so that's what we're gonna do, and then after all
the stages of a date, we're going to evaluate
whose lipstick looks better.
And that is our winner, our longest-lasting lipstick.
(lush music)
- Every good date starts with a romantic dinner.
- And what is more romantic than ribs.
Bib me.
- First of all, lipstick in general feels weird.
It feels like there's a shell on my lips, man.
- Especially this kind of lipstick that's made to last.
- As opposed to the normal lipstick you wear.
- Yeah, exactly.
- Alright, so let's dig in.
You know what, I just go for the rack all at once.
I love a good rack.
- Now ribs are a great first-date meal,
because it's a good test of how, you know, just how
much a person cares about the way they look, and
what their mouth does on a rib.
- Yeah, and at a certain point you just,
you really want to get in there.
The thought about conversation is about getting that rib.
You know, and then you go to back to conversation.
- That's why I'm not saying much.
- So at this point,
- How's your lipstick holding up?
- Well, I mean I would be dabbing,
I wouldn't rub.
- What about licking the fingers,
that's all part of eating ribs.
- Oh yeah, that's good.
And then, they'll give you a moist towelette,
we don't have those, we're just gonna dab with a towelette.
You gotta be, like you said, you gotta stay classy.
- That's what we're all about.
- Now you're, I can see your lipstick is already start,
it's like globbing, it's globbing down there.
- Woah, look, look at that.
- I'm not getting, I'm not getting any lipstick on mine.
- But my lips are still very red, very pretty.
- Yeah, you're still looking good, but the inside of yours,
like the inner edge of your lips,
- I can see the inner edge of yours.
- When I go like this, you can see,
you can see that it's gone.
- But nobody talks like that.
Nobody puts their lips out like this
when they have a conversation.
- Right, so when I'm talking normally,
I feel like I'm very much intact.
- Yeah, I actually talk like this most of the time.
I don't let anybody see the inside of my mouth when I talk.
So I'm gonna be okay.
- Your upper lip, I can't see it right now.
- Yeah, that's covered by a stache.
(lush music)
- Okay, so the dinner went really well.
You want to spend some more time getting to know this person
and so you're gonna take a little walk on the beach.
- But you also want to look for any opportunity
to bring spontaneity into this date that's going so well,
so why not just say, let's take a dip in the ocean.
What have you guys put in my ocean?
- Yours must be like Santa Monica Beach.
- Dead fish.
- And mine is Malibu.
- Well yours is, man, yours looks nice.
Lookit, mine's got hairy, bloody band-aids.
- Yeah, the stuff I've seen down there, okay.
- There's a Sprite, though.
- It's a used Sprite.
- Used, not consumed, but used.
- Let's take these lips for a dip.
- Oh, I'm so enticed.
- It needs some beach-like action, because,
not that kind of action, but you know,
like those waves, I mean we have to make our own waves,
you know what I mean.
- I just don't want to get a used band-aid up my nose.
- I shook my lips quite a bit.
- Eww, it is salty.
Oooh that was fun, what a date.
I gave it some really good shakes, man.
- Let's see what I got here, oh gosh,
mine took a hit, man.
- Let me see.
- My lipstick took a hit, yours looks like
it's freaking, like vinyl siding.
- Like in a good way?
- It hasn't changed at all.
I mean my parents put vinyl siding on the house
back in like 1991, and it still looks exactly the same.
- Yeah, look, when I dab nothing comes off on the towel.
- Yeah, and I'm still getting a little bit off.
Okay, alright, you're taking an early lead here.
Well this is such a fun date,
we should add some people to it though.
(lush music)
- Okay, so far your date has gone swimmingly,
but now it's time for the moment of truth.
- Yes, it's time to put those lips to the ultimate test,
the kissing test.
(romantic music)
- Hello there.
- We have some beautiful lady heads with us,
I really love what you're doing with your hair these days.
- Can you even see me girl?
Okay, this is gonna be a little weird,
I'm not gonna watch you.
- Hold on, I will say that there was that time
in eighth grade, where we were both in the same room
kissing two different girls, and we made eye contact,
you remember that?
- I remember you timing it and telling me
how long it lasted after.
- No, I was making out with Amber, and you were
making out with Anna, and I liked opened my eyes,
and I was like, mmm, turned away, very quickly.
- I just wanted to see,
- I don't wanna, I just don't wanna,
- I wanted to see who was, if you were done or not.
I didn't want to get done first, just like right now.
Alright, this is important for science.
- So, I mean the first thing I would probably do
is just, you know, I just don't want to go in,
I don't want to go in too hard,
just a little bit of that.
- I'm having a crisis of,
- This feels so wrong. - Life, right now.
- But I like, but I like what I'm getting here today.
- Ewwww, what is that liquid coming out?
What in the world?
You're just sloppy, you're sloppy man.
- My beard has lots of water in it from the ocean.
- That didn't come from inside of your mouth?
Lookit, she's drooling.
- She likes it.
- Look at her, look.
- Yeah, she's drooling.
- Gross.
She's getting some lipstick on her, too.
- Wow she's really getting a lot on her.
- Do a little rolling pin.
- Man, that is really holding up,
yours is really holding up.
Oh gosh, she's not very responsive, though, oh gosh!
She's not very responsive at all.
Okay, come on, oh, come on,
give me a freaking break.
- Top that Casanova.
- It was such a mistake to watch you kiss.
- Nothing's coming off on this girl.
- Look at mine, mine's disintegrating man.
Look, look, I mean no matter where I,
- Oooh, man you're leaving lots of residue.
- [Rhett] Look at that.
- She's spic and span, man.
(lush music)
- After a long, grueling date, it's time to hit the hay.
I'm bringing my mannequin head along with me.
Getting comfortable.
- And I've got my book,
and my tissues, and I've got my lip balm, here,
and I've got my big glass of water,
which I always drink before I go to sleep.
- This is what you need in order to sleep?
- Every night.
And then I just take my glasses off, and I go to sleep.
- The only thing I need besides my mannequin head
is my white noise machine, it's on my phone,
just a nice running water.
- That's definitely, that does not combine well with this.
I usually get up at three and whiz anyway.
- Now I move around a lot when I sleep.
Lots of tossing and turning, a little kissing.
Little midnight kissing.
- Trying to find a good way to nestle up in this thing.
Gotta get comfortable.
Gotta find a good spot.
- Okay, well a lot of lipstick has come off on my pillow.
- What (sound changes) oooh,
what is that, a flushing a toilet, a gurgling toilet?
- Running water.
This is a cat.
- A cat purring.
You sleep with a cat purring?
- This is just crickets.
- Okay, I get it.
I can see right off the bat that there's no lipstick
on my pillow, and I gave it a good wallowing.
But man, you have really made a mess.
- I got more stick on my mannequin head, and
more stick, more lipstick.
And more lipstick on my pillow, as well.
- There's still a lot on your lips,
but it's nowhere near, ooh, let me fix my hair,
it's nowhere near what I've got.
- First of all, it has ran off into my beard,
which is, that's not a good look, nobody likes that.
And the only, it's only really strong right along the rim,
the rest of it is basically just gone.
Yours looks, now first of all, I can't say that
it looks good, because it looks kind of crackly
and like an old woman, like it looks like it
needs to be reapplied, but from a distance,
like if you were trying to impress somebody from a distance,
- Hello.
- Yeah, that looks good.
- Yeah, I mean so I think the results are in
and they're a bit surprising that the more economical
drug-store brand on my face
is the clear long-lasting winner.
- Yeah, sorry 24-dollar lipstick, you just didn't last.
