00:00Maybe the more basic you are, maybe the more alkaline you are, not you basic, as in like
00:05acid versus basic.
00:07Milana, are you trying to tell me something?
00:10What's up guys?
00:10I'm Emily.
00:11And I'm Milana.
00:12And this is Test Lab, where we test out the internet's craziest trends so you don't have
00:16to.
00:17Unless we think you should.
00:18Let's get started.
00:19Today, we're testing color or mood changing makeup.
00:22Essentially, it's makeup just based on your pH levels, which sounds amazing.
00:26I'm not actually sure what that means, but Milana, you've used pH makeup before, right?
00:30Yeah, I have.
00:31Basically, it works on the pH levels in your body, whether you're super acidic or alkaline.
00:37Alright, so we have lots of products here.
00:39I haven't tried any of these, but I'm definitely excited.
00:41I'm a huge Smashbox fan.
00:43So I love we have this O Plump Lip Primer with Goji Berries.
00:47And then we also have cool Smashbox O Glow Intuitive Cheek Color.
00:52So we have these two different colors.
00:54Apparently, they go on clear and then kind of transform your face from there based on
00:57your pH levels.
00:58And then we also have this pH match maker, and this is bronzer.
01:02It says it matches a whole range of skin tones and does a whole range of bronzing.
01:07We'll see.
01:08But yeah, we'll test that one out.
01:09And then I'm going to be testing out the Lipstick Queen product.
01:12The first one we have here is Morning Sunshine.
01:14This one comes out yellow.
01:15It scares you a little bit, but then the coral after, if it ends up anything like this right
01:19here, I'm pretty excited.
01:21And then we've got Lipstick Queen's Hello Sailor Lip Gloss.
01:24This one is supposed to start blue and then turn dark.
01:29I love this.
01:29I would love the shade just on its own, but I'm excited to see what it'll look like.
01:33And then we've got the Lipstick Queen Frog Prince Cream Blush.
01:37It's green and then it turns red.
01:38I've actually never been one for a red blush, but maybe if it's custom for me, it'll look
01:42really good.
01:43All right.
01:43So I think I'm ready to get started if you are.
01:45Yeah, I'm ready.
01:45All right.
01:46Let's get our coats.
01:48All right.
01:48So I'm going to start with the bronzer.
01:50I'm going to do the blush.
01:51Sweet.
01:52Oh, it's already changing on my finger a little bit, like when I chew the green.
01:55I'm excited.
01:56Ooh.
01:57All right.
01:59Oh.
02:00Okay.
02:00How's it looking?
02:01Um, very, very pigmented.
02:04I feel like I have the opposite problem.
02:06Like I can't see mine.
02:08Yeah.
02:08But I'm like afraid that if I keep going, it's going to like all of a sudden hit you.
02:13It's going to be too much.
02:13Can you see it?
02:14No.
02:15What I'm not crazy about with this bronzer is it's leaving my skin a little patchy.
02:20But maybe I could see this working for someone if like you like a little more of a natural
02:24bronze.
02:25Mm-hmm.
02:25But not like a full-on bronze.
02:27Like a full-on bronze.
02:28I don't really see that much.
02:29And I feel the same about you.
02:30I feel yours is a bit more glossy than it is with an actual color.
02:32Mm-hmm.
02:32It's like the, it would be good for summer.
02:34Like I feel like it's like a light, cute, like, I'm trying not to do too much, but I
02:38guess here I am.
02:39Okay.
02:39So I'm going to do my Smashbox Lip Plumper.
02:42I guess I'll try the coral, but I'm not sure how coral and dark berry will look together.
02:47Interesting.
02:47Well, we'll find out.
02:48Ooh, this texture is different.
02:49It's like very goofy.
02:51Yes, very sticky.
02:52It's like the MAC really thick gloss, which I love that gloss.
02:56I do love that gloss.
02:58Mm, it's like very minty.
02:59Oh, I'm down for this.
03:01A little tingly.
03:02Ooh, I like that.
03:03This is more pink than coral.
03:05I'm in support of this one.
03:06I like it.
03:06I like this one.
03:07I also love this one.
03:09Hey, we got the nice lips down.
03:11So my last one is this blush, which again, you know I'm not a big blush person, but I'm
03:14excited to try this.
03:15I'm excited to see it.
03:16And your last one is you're layering up the lipstick, right?
03:18Yes.
03:18Okay.
03:19So we'll see how that looks.
03:20All right, so this blush, it goes on clear again.
03:23So it's kind of like the same consistency as the lip gloss.
03:27That's kind of cool.
03:28But it's already getting a little pinker.
03:30Oh.
03:32Oh.
03:32I already don't like it.
03:33I already hate this.
03:34Just blend it out.
03:35See where it goes.
03:36Okay.
03:36This one is also not going to be a winner for me.
03:40It's just not dark.
03:41I don't know if it's like the coral that went on before, but it's just like, I mean,
03:43I don't mind it.
03:44It's like a good texture, but nothing.
03:47I feel like my lip is the same color as before with like a blue sheet, which is-
03:51Exactly.
03:52I don't love that.
03:52Which is kind of nice.
03:53Those two together kind of give me a nice, like a little purpley vibe, but-
03:56Yeah.
03:57I think my winner is going to be this one.
04:00Yeah.
04:01This one's just good.
04:01I think my winner is going to be-
04:03Shocking the lip gloss.
04:04I think I might actually go and get that.
04:06Honestly, I think I might too.
04:08All right, so Milana, what are your final thoughts on beige makeup?
04:11It's fun for a cute little experiment.
04:13Am I going to throw down $50 the next time I go makeup shopping?
04:17No.
04:18It does.
04:18One thing it does do really well is it provides like that natural finish because I guess it
04:22does kind of melt into your skin, but I think it's leaving my skin feeling like a little
04:26gritty, like in a little dirty.
04:27So from like just layering and maybe it's because I layered the two, but also the bronzer
04:32just wasn't the smoothest application.
04:34And not typically how I like to wear my makeup.
04:36So it's good for a more natural look, but again, I think the only thing I'd stick with
04:40would be the lip-blumping gloss.
04:41Yeah.
04:42And it looks great.
04:42Oh, yours does too.
04:43All right, so now we've tested that on our face and we are going to really put it to
04:47the test.
04:48So we have two products here with us today.
04:50One is a lemon and the other is baking soda, and we're going to test these to see if
04:54the pH makeup works on those two things.
04:56Ooh.
04:56Yeah.
04:57It's going to be fun.
04:57I'm going to test out morning sunshine with a lemon to see if the acids in the lemon will
05:02react with the product.
05:03I'm going to do a little swatch test on my arms too, and then combine it with some baking
05:07soda to see if the color actually changes.
05:11I have my lemon, I'm excited.
05:15Nothing has changed.
05:17Nothing's changed at all.
05:19Should you hold it on longer?
05:20All right, so I have my two swatches so far.
05:23So I have my blush here, which is already starting to turn pink, and then I have my gloss here,
05:27which hasn't quite noticed yet.
05:28So what I'm going to do is add a little bit of baking soda to the blush and then to
05:34the
05:34gloss.
05:36Ooh.
05:37And this blush is turning bright pink, so.
05:40Oh, cool.
05:41Yeah, so the blush is really, really, really getting pink, and this gloss is just getting
05:46like a nice tint to it.
05:47Maybe the more alkaline you are, the darker the product is.
05:51I think so.
05:51And maybe the more acidic you are, the lighter it is.
05:54Look at this.
05:55Like, that's pretty dark blush.
05:56That was not what happened when I put it on my face.
05:58Yeah, no.
05:58Not at all.
05:59I want changes.
06:01No.
06:01I mean, I guess it's lighter.
06:02It is lighter.
06:03Yeah, it definitely is a little lighter.
06:04So maybe the theory is right.
06:05Interesting.
06:06Okay, well that's coming to know that it does kind of work.
06:08And that we can change it.
06:09Yeah.
06:09Yeah, okay.
06:10I'm pleased with that.
06:11Me too.
06:11Those are good experiments.
06:12To see that mine had worked.
06:14So I think what Milana and I found today was that pH makeup is cool, but it's not for
06:19us.
06:19No.
06:20But maybe you at home might want to try it out.
06:22Thanks so much for watching this episode of Test Lab, and we'll see you next time.
