Hello friends and welcome to another video. Today, I'm going to be doing something a little bit stupid and a little bit irresponsible
I'm going to be melting all of my nude lipsticks together to make one lipstick this
Decision was inspired by two things. One:
I've had a cold recently and I've been really hopped up on Nyquil and Dayquil don't do that kids
It's a bad idea. And two: I saw Cristine from Simply Nailogical do this a little bit ago where she combined all of her
Holographic nail polishes into one mega nail polish brew, but I don't have any nail polishes
So I'm going for what I do have which is lipsticks you guys may know I've said it before
I'm a bit of a lipstick hoarder. I have a hard time throwing away lipstick
no matter how old it is I wanted to go for nudes because one I buy a lot of them and
Two I also thought that if I melted all my lipsticks together in general, I would just end up with black lipstick
Which I like, but I already own, so maybe if I just stick to the nudes
I'll end up with a new nude color that is a pseudo midpoint of all of them
And I'm curious to see what that would look like and then tomorrow
I'm going to wear it all day and see what happens
See if it is actually a lipstick or if it's just a monstrosity alright
So I've got my cutting board mold jar makeup wipes my makeup mirror in case I get sentimental
my paper for swatching and
My lipsticks alright, I'm going to start off with a lipstick. That's very near and dear to my heart. This is Mrs. Norris
She is one of the custom lipsticks that I made at the Bite Lip Lab in January
I'm just going to swatch just a little bit just so we can see she's a little bit more of a brown
Than a nude but I think the line between Brown and nude is going to be pretty blurry today here here we go
I'm like nervous for this
I don't actually want to use like the entirety of every tube of my nude lipsticks
So I'm basically just going to be like kind of chopping the tips kind of like mildly
circumcising
That is not enough. Maybe we need like a little bit more
It still works
Yeah
We'll take more from the other ones, that made me really nervous
Am I going to be able to go through with this? This second one is a Nyx Matte Lipstick in the color Butter.
I really like this color, but whenever I put it on it has very poor butthole coverage. Oh! look at that!
Look like tiny mouse turds in there. All right, I'm going to blow through a couple of these. Let's start chopping, shall we?
This is a ColourPop one in Aquarius. It's an oldie, but a goodie.
It's a "had for a couple of years-y" for sure. This still works, if anything is a new beginning.
You know where we're sloughing off all that dead skin on the top and melting it all together
So I've been putting them into this glass bowl, and it's looking like I might need to be a little less stingy
I'm having, uh, chop anxiety.
I think I broke it
We're going to have to bring in a lighter for some emergency lipstick surgery because I will have no
fatalities on my set today. I just melted it and I'm going to put it back together?
Maybe it'll never again be as straight as it once was, but it's
reattached at least. Wow, look at the amount of nudie browns that I bought in my lifetime
I don't know if this feels like a hoarders episode,
but I do feel like a little bit exposed. Alright, ready for another one?
This is hard at first, but as I keep going through my lipsticks,
I'm like" I could spare a little more". Look at my surgeon's rags, oh my God. Alright, what's up next? This one
I brought out it's not a
solid lipstick, but it's also not really a liquid lipstick, like it doesn't dry down.
Here's one that's double-sided, so we get to pick a bit off of both sides. Pull them both out,
And you're just like Darth Maul. Okay, so this is the same type as the one that broke earlier,
so I'm going to be careful with this. I'm trying to saw instead of like chop.
I was also thinking of putting in a bit of this white
I was messing around with it thinking like oh, maybe I'll put it in and then the tip broke completely
So we're just going to throw the tip right in so this is the last one it is one of my favorite tubes
Ever this is the Urban Decay Vice Lipstick in Oblivion
I'm not going to decapitate too much because this one is too valuable to me. Okay,
so here is my little bowl and here is my swatch paper
I really hope there's enough for one lipstick in there if not, we're going to come back and chop a little more
But let's melt it down and see what we got. Alright, so we're down here
We've got the mixture and we've got my little pan and here is my little Amazon lipstick mold. Okay,
so first let's heat up the pan, and then I just gotta scoop it out basically sort of like
Chocolate chips, it's melting right away. Oh wow just get this off with the spatula
Come on, you old bitches. I just want to get every last bit. No lipsticks died in vain today. Wow it is totally melted already
Oh, it's kind of mixing together! It's doing something.
Oh, don't burn it. I think it's maybe already just like ready to go
I think that was all the melting that we got it looks a lot like chocolate
I will reaffirm that I am the Augustus Gloop of lipsticks. My plan is to pour this mixture into the beaker
maybe we should have just put it in the beaker and microwave it to begin with
Put it in the beaker and then put straight into little tube. Alright, let's do it. Alright ready? Yes
UUUGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!
Alright, you have to go before it solidifies. Boom
goes the dynamite
That's it, and now there's like a little bit of lipstick left everywhere, but I'm glad that we had enough for one tube
so what my friends at Rituel de Fille taught me was that you put it in the freezer for like 10 minutes now and
then when it gets out
we'll try and put it in a tube or
We'll have to remelt it and put it into a lip balm pot because it's not going to fit, but we'll try okay
I'm going to pour the leftovers into this beaker and then try and microwave it and see if we can't put the extras into that
Little lip balm tube. - oh that is very Augustus Gloop right there see pure chocolate all right
So that's our extras. I think it looks pretty good. Are you gonna eat it?
No, Saf!
Are those all edible? (Saf shakes head no with guilty child face.)
Tastes like lipstick. I mean, what else was it going to taste like it's been ten minutes. Let's see how we're doing
I'm really hoping that this lipstick will fit into the tube, but we'll see. Is it fitting? I think so
Oh, how do I take the cap off, maybe I twist it off?
no, I'm ruining it. why don't you just take it off and put it in
I can't get a grip on it
Why don't you just use this- oh, oh, I got it. I got it, ready? Boom goes the dynamite! That was so
Smooth- elegantly done. Smooth and elegant is what you meant to say, but it fits, ready?
Wow
I like the color that looks nice. alright,
let's go swatch it. So we have our lipstick and our extra lipstick right here. I'm pretty pleased with the color
It's kind of nudie brownie
Rosy a little bit rosier than I expected but looks like it could be good
I mean
It's swatchin'. I think it looks pretty much like the mixture of all those colors alright let's put it on the mouth shall
we? It's really light, whoa, weird. As I keep applying it, it looks a bit better. There we go,
we're getting some color out of it now
I didn't realize
I have so many lighter nudes. Maybe I should've gone heavier on the brown ones in my closet
Okay, so this is my lip color. There's a lot of different textures going on
It's quite full coverage which I like, like you can't actually see my lips through it, which is cool.
It's just very light
I didn't expect it to be this light
and I do have a fair amount of lighter nudes that I don't use very often and I think that maybe my
hand went a little bit
Choppier into the ones that I don't use as often because I was like I could use this one up
But overall I like it. I think it kind of reminds me of like a Kim Kardashian
Nude color you know one of those pictures where she's kind of like has her hair wet for some reason
It's not really the midpoint that I was thinking of but it's some type of midpoint. So I'm going to take my tube of
Frankenstein nude and I'm going to wear it around tomorrow and see how it lasts throughout the day
How the coverage is you know just do some check ins and see see how this lipstick really is so it's not exactly
Tomorrow it is in fact actually a couple of days later. This is actually my childhood bedroom. I'm actually in Chicago right now
I've been like on the road the last couple of days, but I finally have an afternoon off so I can spend some quality time
Testing out the formula of my franken-lipstick there are a lot of different formulas that went into the lipstick like sheer,
shiny, creamy, Matte, like everything basically
So we'll see sort of what happens. There it is. It still smells kind of like baby powder
I wonder if when I cooked it, I lost some of the sense of the other lipstick
I don't know if that's possible, but it kind of feels like that might have happened. Alright,
let's try and put it on
oh
Wow, it goes on like pretty opaque from the beginning it definitely feels like the type of lipstick that would transfer very easily
But also feels like really comfortable on your mouth
Let me just fix my Cupid's bow really quick, okay?
so I'm going to take my lipstick out of the town and we'll see kind of how it lasts and how it performs as a
Regular lipstick I have a good feeling one advantage of this lipstick being a little bit lighter
Is that the butthole lip is almost imperceptible like it's not the exact color of the inside of my mouth
But it's pretty hard to tell when the waterline begins and that is ideal. Oh, I have to name it,
don't I? Did I named it already? okay,
So I've come up with three possible names: the first one is Bikini bottom because I was thinking you know things that are nude
butts. My other options are Cargo Shorts and Coffee-mate. So you guys let me know in the comments
Which one you like better: Bikini Bottom, Cargo Shorts, or Coffee-mate as the name of this franken-lipstick?
I can't decide. Also
I just noticed there's a lipstick on my cheek-chin area this thing is already
Transferring even before I try and make a transfer, so speaking of transfer I did
get some iced coffee and
A clean straw so we can see like what the damage is alright ready the coffee is pretty good a little bitter
But there is definitely
Transfer not as much as maybe I thought there would be but like you know it's going to come off. Yeah
No, that's my mouth. I was just thinking that like once this tube runs out
I'll like never get to have this color again
So actually since I like left home like seven years ago there has since sprung up an Ulta in my neighborhood
So I'm going to walk over to Ulta right now and see if I can't find a good dupe. Okay
So I swatched my lipstick which will
Help me in my search, so let's try and find something that matches that
Right none of these are right that one right on top of it looks kind of similar
But like in person it looks much pinker none of those are quite right either
Yeah, maybe I should wipe these off and start again alright
I started over and still kind of stuck in between a few shades. It's honestly hard to find a good dupe for this
Then maybe it's just it's own unique
Child so after all my ulta adventures the thing that I found that was the closest was actually this Nyx lip liner
Which is in the color London
It's not the same formula, and it's not really exactly the same color
But it's close-ish the hunt is still on for the dupe for this, but this lip liner is not too far off also
How do I end up buying more nude lipstick for this video anyway?
It was time to get food, so I went to my favorite place in the world
Potbelly's so I got a big turkey on wheat with mushrooms and I'm gonna eat it and see what happens to my lipstick Alright, I am
Crouching down a little bit so I can get in frame. Maybe I'll just keep you further back now
We shall grub
Okay, so as I suspected the sandwich pretty much destroyed my lipstick
There's a little bit of lipstick left on the top lip but not on the bottom lip and then there's like a little bit of
Lipstick residue like right off the chin at this point
I would definitely have to reapply, but like it's been a few hours, so I'm pretty impressed
You know there's a lot of things happening in that sandwich that taste amazing
But maybe aren't so friendly to the lipsticks this kind of works
I brought like eight lamps into this room to like get some light in here
So the evening ended up bringing very little so we're just kind of like hung around of my lipstick, and it's looking pretty good
Overall I'd say that I'm pretty happy with how this turned out. I like how it goes on
I think it's quite opaque and it does last like a decent amount of time
Like it wasn't like gone in two seconds does not last through straws or food
But you know I don't know that many stick lipsticks that do. All in all I would say it was a pretty successful
Bad makeup experiment. I don't think I'm going to be doing it again
Just because it did pain me to cut the tips of those lipsticks off. But
I actually do think I will continue to wear this lip color. I really actually do like it
I think it's very comfortable
I think I'm going to have to continue to search for this dupe because like in this light
It looks like not a dupe, but like when you turn your hand it kind of does the search continues
