  • I love your plump lips. Very cute! lol I'm a brown-skinned female and I must admit that I have only owned neutral lipsticks. Thanks to you I have a new found obsession with pink lipsticks. Time to go raid Sephora! lol

  • Very detailed thank God someone got my point thanks Hun.....

  • Show Orchid is really nice.

  • i like bubbles on u its pretty

  • thank you for doing this....you and i have almost the same skin tone and I didn't think I could wear those colors....

  • Black women are Beautiful

  • Can you recommend a drugstore (cheaper) version of this "Currant" lip liner, please? Thanks for your lip vids, the colors are awesome-- and I appreciate your selection and confidence. You are also very organized and professional in your presentation :).

  • Can you recommend me a Mac lipglass that goes with all pinks n purple lipsticks instead of buying so many different kinds of lipglass and one that goes with all nudes that way I have two one for pinks n purples n one for nudes and browns. If you have cheaper alternative such as nyx lipgloss ill be more than happy Thanks you

  • You r so pretty. You look like Jill Marie Jones from "GirlFriends". She played the character, Toni!

  • haha every time i forget what lipsticks i should by i come back to this video .

  • try saint germain with cultured lipglass its so beautiful and line your lips with saint germain to :D

  • You're so bold! I love the confidence =) I am really trying to wear such bright colors myself, still a little hesitant, but you give me confidence.Thanks!

  • Thnks so much 4 the vids! I've been doing google searches galore for pics of blk women and mac colors and found nothing but forums and no pics. I stumbled on ur vid and I love it! I can't wait to try some new colors now.. So inpired!!!

  • love the saint german

  • Saint Germain looks so beautiful on you. (:

  • lol u did this vid on my 15th b day..lol ill b 17 this aug tho lol...also this was a really good video. (:

  • I like darks and reds on lighter skin, bright colors look great on dark skin!!!! but full lips can wear anything i swear! unlike papercut thin lips :/

  • I looooove your video.. For so long i was afraid to try lipstick because i was sure id be stuck in the same o browns or nude.. I have to ask tho.. Have u ever tried red.? I always thought red lips look beautiful.. But i dnt wanna end up with a akward orangy or brownish red mess!

  • awww with the first pink lipstick u looked so adorable. like a bratz doll

  • thanks for showing us this! i so need to get these lipsticks, love your channel xoxo

  • I really love pink lips.

  • with Saint Germain did you fill in your lips are just line them?

  • omg can I have your lips please =) . I had to get friggen lip injections to get mine pretty like yours and let me tell you it just wasnt worth it in the end . I still didnt get the result I was hoping for and it only lasted like afew months and it was 600 bucks for the top lip .

  • thank you for trying the lipsticks on! that was useful! thanks xx

  • Thanks for actual lip swatches yay!

  • I thought that St. Germain would be too ashy looking on you but it was a beautiful pink on you love the vid.

  • @4ULordSDG why would it look ashy? i hate this criticism of brown skinned women...i hate this word "ashy"...ppl always say it to brown skin.

  • @markee871 It is such a light blue pink, honestly I think that it looks ashy on some fair women. I meant no disrespect or insult.

  • MAC Mehr was one of the prettiest and easy to wear pick lipsticks ever made, and it was LE but I bought 3 of em!

  • mac is pretty expensive so is there an alternative for the pinks, in maybellline?

  • @datfancychick23 It's better to look in Revlon than Maybelline.

  • Thanks to you I'm going to buy mac lipsticks today!! I'm exited cause I can have an idea on how it will look like! It's the 2nd time I see this video and the 2nd time I order. Thank you!!!<3

  • A beautiful pink is fuchsia fusion by Revlon!! I am telling you WOC it is GORGEOUS!!! It's similar to MAC's Girl About Town, but honestly, I like the Revlon better and it's cheaper!!

  • Comment removed

  • Show Orchid is THE BEST on you. and Hollywood Nights. Those hot pinks/fushias were MADE for you. :)

  • Show Orchid looks so good on you!

  • ur accent is super cute

  • i'M SOOOO GLAD U DID THIS VID, i GET TIRED OF DARK SKIN bLACK WOMEN TELLING ME WHAT COLOR THEY CAN'T WEAR. tHAT'S A BRAINWASH THANG HATE IT!!

  • @Altovise0214 I completely feel you. I have so many browns and deep reds and burgundys. I've been afraid of getting a pink lipstick....until now. My mom completely programmed me against anything pink. Now, I'm ready to show my pink stuff.

  • @Altovise0214 Lipstick like all makeup has color ranges that work for us by skin tone. It's not brainwashing, but what works best. Unless a woman doesn't mind looking like a clown. Pinks, especially frosted make the lips look bigger and nobody wants that, do they?

  • @TheNayners24 WELL THANK U SO MUCH FOR MYLESSON IN THE FUNDAMNTALS OF ART, BUT SINCE I HAVE MY B.A. IN FINE ARTS, THE LESSON WAS NOT NEEDED. THE COMMON MAN/WOMAN KNOWS THAT THERE ARE DIFFERENT SHADES AND TINTS THAT MAY LOOK BETTER THAN THE NEXT. WOMEN OF COLOR , ESPECAILLY DARK COMPLEXED WOMEN OF COLORS LOOK BEAUTIFUL IN REDS, PINKS ETC, BUT ' ITS HOW YOU APPLY IT'!! P.S. BIG LIPS ARE IN, PEOPLE PAY GOOD MONEY TO LOOK LIKE US!!

  • @Altovise0214 I'm not trying to give a lesson on anything, let alone fine arts. A degree in anything has nothing to do with knowing how to choose the makeup shades that look best. Really it doesn't matter to me who wears what. I'm a fair skinned black woman, so maybe the dark skinned women know something I don't. Anyway, I will continue to wear what looks best for my skin tone.

  • @TheNayners24 Lol your making your self sound stupid, EVERYBODY wants big lips you see the celebritys they want lips like black women we got it naturlly BOOBOO

  • @TheCutieNicole Anybody who cannot construct a simple sentence or spell simple words, looks really stupid. It's even worse when someone attempts to insult in writing and it's all wrong, lol. It's obvious that the last thing you should be concerned about is lips. Lol you're the dummy!

  • @TheNayners24 Considering this is only youtube and i can type how ever the hell i want because this isn't schol,college, or an interview i would suggest you come up with a better comeback :)

  • @TheCutieNicole Awwww now don't get defensive. There are lots of people who don't know how to write/spell correctly. Your parents failed you so you should be mad at them, not me. Mine made sure I knew how to read, write and spell because they know it's a very important tool. Why would you need to be in school? Either you know how or you don't, and when you don't, you look stupid. That's just the way it is.

  • @TheNayners24 Nice try again =P but I understand that your mostly some nerd with horrible acne and your proably very ugly and you talk shit on the computer to try and make youself seem bigger or more important and if you ever fill the need to say something off live in atlanta georgia and i work at permeter mall at the BEBE store please feel free to stop by and talk shit and watch your ass get beat =D oh and converation over any messages sent to me will be blocked and flaged for spam ;)thank you.

  • Omg, thank you girl..... All of thoses pinks work so great on you..

    im not a lipstick girl but after seeing this....

    Im definitately gonna try these,

    and i never thought lip liner was so important.

  • you have really beautiful lips, and your gorgeous. nice reveiws

  • I recommend MAC Creme De La Femme and Girl About Town. And Illamasqua Resist and Salacious lipsticks.

  • Dark skinned black women and very fair skinned white women are the best candidates for very true red lipstick I've found.

  • <3 this video is so great!!! Thanks for showing everyone that women of color are not stuck with browns, golds, and deep berry colors! I knew this, but thanks for telling and showing everyone!!!

  • Your skin tone is so beautiful !

    I loved all of the lip colors you have

    although i do think the st. germain was a bit to light,

    But you worked them all girl ! <3

  • The best lip color you showed was your OWN!! You have gorgeous colored lips . . .. .. does MAC make a color called "SongBirdDiva"??? :-O

  • i love the show orchid the best

  • 08:35 omg noooo dont make them even bigger!!!!!!!!!!!

  • IM brown skinned and I wear "I like it like that" and "All styled up" from Mac's In the Groove Collection that just came out, (these are light pink shades) and for darker pinks I have "Cremesheen Lickable" and "Girl about town". I wear pinks all the time i prefer those colors over red. And all teh colors look gorgeous on you girl

  • you look wonderful with bold colors. It immensely compliments your skin

  • really nice video! I luv it. I love bold lipstick myself and have always went bold.

  • I cannot wait until im old enough to wear lipstick without my mother's permission. I love all of those colors

  • Also, is it true that Saint Germaine is now in the permanent line? If so I'm gonna have to visit my local MAC counter ASAP!

  • Thank you! I've been wanting to see what Creme de la femme looks like. And I love your makeup in this video. Sketch is definitely a staple for any collection.

  • Loved em' all! Thank-you...filed in favorites!!!

  • thank you for doing this video because now i LOVE Creme de la femme

  • yaaa fir pinks!!!!i'm a pink freak to!!!

  • Show Orchid looks so beautiful on you!

  • Kissable?!?! Indeed - you are so beautiful and sexy. Your lips are the lips of legend. You should be modeling lipstick! WOW.....

  • dats to cute do you ever wear orange

  • omg thank you!

    i've been sooo afraid to try pinks (even though i love the look on other girls my skin tone)

    u look really pretty!

  • Nice vid now you make me want gum lol

  • Omg! So jealous of your lips!

  • I was looking for reviews of "Show Orchid" and your video came up! I WISH I could pull that color off it looks so pretty on you :)

  • I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this video! I love how not only did you talk about the lipsticks but you tried them on and showed us! Very helpful

  • you should definetely also try ruby woo!! it would look gorgeous on you!

  • love ur hair wats the brand

  • beautiful lips!

  • wd u say show orchid n girl about town r similar?

  • My Favorite is hollywood nights! Beautiful

  • Saint Germain is the only one I think I'd shy away from because it's shiny, where as Pink Nouveau, Pink Plaid and Snob at lest come out really matte-looking when you wear them with lip pencils.

  • Don't shy away from lighter pinks ladies of color! As long as you have Pink Treat or Beurre Cremestick Liners from MAC, they will look just fine on you. That's what I found out after I tried on Pink Treat Cremestick Liner with MAC Pink Nouveau anyway.

    After that I even tried on the Pink Treat and Beurre pencils with Snob, Pink Plaid and maybe even Please Me.

  • Wow show orchid looks good on you, im so scared of bright pinks think im too dark.

  • Black women can pull off the bright colors better than the other races...like bright lips and pinks and reds and corals and purples....

    but that st. germaine did not look right on u at first, I'd shy away from THAT one. Show Orchid and Girl about town are great tho for women of color.

  • You have a pretty smile! And I love Saint-J too girl! We're the same skin tone and ain't afarid to try on some crazy colors. Gotta have fun withit.

  • im about your complexion, do u recommend a deep deep purple, almost black? i thnk it wud b so cute with a coat of clear lipgloss on top

  • If you want a deep black-purple, try MAC Cyber lipstick.

  • WOW!!!!!

  • what is WOC? I wonder if I am one??? lol

  • WOC is women of color lol

  • @lalaflorida thank u so much and I am one,lol. Now i feel a little bit retarded like I should have know what it means.

    thank u so much..still getting use to the jargon

  • women of colour

  • have u tried girl about town..cos that is my joint!!

    luv u in orchid and hollywood nights...we woc's need to mix it up a little!

  • I love the vid!!!! I am a WOC and have a hard time with lipstick but now i am going to try. thanks

  • gud vid, coulda been better w/out you yackin on the gum . lol.

  • You are gorgeous. Thanks for the video, I've been spending a lot of my time researching and finding which MAC lipsticks I'm going to get next. I've only purchased High Tea (which I gave to a friend, it just didn't suit my lips) and Equality.

    :)

  • oh god! I love your reviews! why haven't i subscribed to you yet?!

  • I need some advice. What can I do to make my lipstick look smooth on my lips? Whenever I wear MAC lipsticks, even when I put on a lip balm before, it still goes into the lines of my lips and looks gross.

  • try Urban Decays lip primer... my lipsticks ALWAYS go on smooth and the color payoff is always awesome with it

  • girl... thanx..im soo glad us browned skin girs could also work with color :) btw..every single color you tried on looked absolutely gorgeous on you..ur soo pretty i had to sub :)

  • ur gorgeous girl!! subscribed& lookin forward to watchin ur videos

  • Any drug store brand recommendations?

  • lol,... Thank u so much ;-)

  • your lips are really pretty : )

  • what blush do you have on?

  • THIS IS GOLD, FUCKING GOLD I SAY!!!

  • lol.... :-D

  • Another good combo is Hot Gossip l/s, Super Nova l/g, with Plum as a liner

    I love this combo!!!

  • This is one of the BIGGEST reasons why I like black girls better. <3

  • @Eye2EyeIIIV lmfao

  • now you got me rocking my barbie pink lip and i love it!!!! XD

  • Great video! The gum smacking is kind of distracting though.

  • My goodness, your so beautiful.

  • u hv so sorted out my pink lipstick issue

  • black lipstick please

  • Girl you read my mind with the light pink. it's a beautiful color but i'm afraid it will make my lips look bigger and they are big as is lol thanx for making this I'm gonna try it out

  • men like big lips lol,,,,im so glad she did these cuz i was lookin up stuff today for diff shades and a few NON black gurus kept sayin what was a great color for "women of color" and it was browns and tans,,,,um NO we rock pink and red and purple just as good as anybody else lol from lightskinned to darkskinned we WORK IT!!!!

  • I couldn't have said it better :-)

  • I love nude-y browns but brown all the time is boring; I don't live under fascism or communism!

  • @mrs1nitsua You are sooooo right. I love pink lip color on deeper skin tones!

  • @mrs1nitsua And in my opinion, you can see the color in it's full intensity better on FULL lips. I have full lips and am proud of them and am so glad to see someone with even fuller lips flaunt them in these beautiful colors! Why not wear these bright and bold colors? Plenty of people with smaller lips are "getting their lips done" to look like ours. You rock for your comment!!! Thank you for it!!

  • Don't be scared off! Try MAC's Sweetie, Viva Glam V, Viva Glam VI SE, Chatterbox, Lustering, Milan Mode and even other lipstick names I've forgotten now! LOL

  • the vivaglams are some of my fav im lovin shades of purple and coral right now too i think im super ready for spring lol

  • Oh yes yes yes, now I remember look at Creme De La Femme, Bombshell, and Lame from MAC as well.

  • i really liked this!! Thank you i'm off to get ST. Germain!

  • Its limited edition:( I WANNA CRY!

  • you put on so many layers of it? Is that how you're supposed to wear lipstick?

    I'm honestly asking, I'm just getting into lipstick. I have no clue!

  • Thanks for the Guide! Very Helpful.

  • you don't have to line your lips .. you have an AMAAAZZZZIIINNNGG Lipppppssssss woooooooow 5 STAARRRRSSSS

  • all the lipsticks look great on u

  • I need help trying to find a pink lipstick!!!! I'm a little lighter than you i think ill try the cremme de la femme

  • u r so awesome, i am so happy a guru like you is on youtube. I can HONESTLY say that you are on my top 5 list of favorite gurus and I have alot of subcriptions. PLEASE DO NOT stop making videos, because before you know it, your name will be everywhere. Thanks so much and God Bless. xoxo bebe nicole

  • I agree she knows her makeup.

  • I recently purchased my 1st MAC lipstick and it was St. Germain and I love it! I pair it with chestnut pencil and randomly wear VIVA Glam VI lipgloss or any light pink lipgloss. WOC can definitely sport pink lips.

  • Yeah why should I be scared of pink lipstick when I have a bright pink bottom lip and so do some other black women?

    Red lipstick is the hard nut to crack as far as finding the right undertones, but pink is a lot easier to deal with.

  • I don't think you mentioned this combo. But Magenta L/L, Odessey L/S, with funtabulous dazzelglass... LOVE IT!!!

  • Can u plz do nude lips nude browns and nude pinks an nue pinky browns for women of color plz

  • your gorgeous!!

  • is hollywood nights similar to show orchid?

  • I only use long stem rose but what thinking of trying diff pinks so thx for the preview of the other colors mac offers that i didnt never bother to try!!

  • girl u are FAB...U pretty much covered all the pink lips that I see girls wear but never can find a good one...thanks for this :))

  • thankkkss soo much for this video! you always know what im looking for! you go girl

  • I love the lipsticks and your confidence is amazing

  • Has anyone ever told you that you look like Toni from Girlfriends? She is the BOMB!!!

  • @Baby0229 omg i was finna say so to lol

  • Very pretty.
