I was googling the Maybelline lipsticks you mentioned and decided to find out what on earth "Maybelline" meant. SOO INTERESTING. Thought you'd like this :) via Wikipedia The Maybelline Company was created by a 19 year old entrepreneur named Tom Lyle Williams in 1915. Williams noticed his older sister Mabel applying a mixture of Vaseline and coal dust to her eyelashes to give them a darker, fuller look. He adapted it with a chemistry set and produced a product sold locally called lash-in-brow-line. Williams renamed his eye beautifier Maybelline, in honor of his sister Mabel, who gave him the idea. In 1917 the company produced Maybelline Cake Mascara, "the first modern eye cosmetic for everyday use" and Ultra Lash in the 1960s, which was the first mass-market automatic.
Thank you for being so consistent with your videos, and always being your true self on here. I've seen many people lose their passion on here, but you're still shining. I just want to thank you for being you. Hugs&kisses
Girl. GURL.GWORL. First off, you have been doing something different with your brows and I LOVE it. (If you haven't and I'm tripping, your brows STILL look fantastic). Next, Swatch Week is literally the best thing I've seen in a hot minute. LASTLY, can we talk about how all these colors look great on you? OMG.
Matte innocence, naked and passion are my favorite! Definitely need those! Lipstick is not by any means my favorite beauty product I usually tend to reach for the same lipstick/gloss but all these videos are making me want every lipstick you show! 😩 they look so good on you
lol when you swatched the last one on your lips with the bullet completely out of the tube it gave me anxiety girl hahahha eeeeek!!!!! Loving this series, your lips must be hurting, you are very dedicated indeed, you will reach a million subscribers in no time! I'm proud to be watching you since you were starting, you will be big!!!!!
Too many people on youtube pile on pounds of makeup with crazy highlighting and contouring. I love how you still do natural, understated looks! It seriously proves that less is more. You are an amazingly beautiful, down-to-earth, and honest girl! Keep doing you!
I love that you're so honest about the products you review. Your transparency in how you're sponsored is so refreshing! Please do a tutorial for your eye makeup! :)
I watched one of your older videos today and you said getting 500k followers would be a dream come true or something like that. Now you have over 600k!! You are so real and so honest, and your wonderful personality shines through in every video! Thank you for doing what you do!!
I'm glad you mentioned the patchiness with Matte Innocence and Matte Glam--your reviews are always fantastic Kathleen, thanks for always keeping it real with us!
I can't wait for lip swatch week to be over so I know which ones I NEED to buy. I'm definitely going to have like 15 new lipsticks by the end of the week. Thank you KathleenLights you are my favorite
How does every lip color on the earth look good on you? I have been watching all of your lip swatch vids and I have not seen a shade yet that didn't flatter you.
I just got the lipstick in Matte Naked today, and I'm excited to use it. Keep the lip swatches/reviews coming. I'm loving lip swatch week, and I think you should definitely do it again in the future.
KathleenLights I don't know how I come up with these things sometimes ;) lol Goodluck on your move ! Try not to stress too much remember its temporary, you'll be settled in no time!
Am I the only one who thought throughout the whole video: "waouh her eye makeup looks amazing. So does her entire face, she looks extra beautiful today !! " Love you Kathleen !!
Kathleen you should do these more often! You help show me products that I would never thought buying and help me choose colors! Thanks and good luck with the move!
Hey Kathleen, after this week can you do a recap video of your favorites from each brand? Like what matte colors you liked best, what's the better deal, etc. I have some Anastasia liquid lipsticks that I like okay, but found that I like the NYX matte creams even more and they are $15 cheaper. Just an idea, I would be interested. :)
Why did you prefer the nyx lip creams over the Anastasia? I'm curious. Was it the formula? How about colors? Are the Anastasia unique or did you find the Nyx ones had similar colors. Thank you!
Honestly it wasn't anything to do with the colors it was more of an issue with the application. They applied water thin on my lips and brought out all of the cracks in them. I have to put on a few coats when I wear it, which surprised me because after watching Jaclyn and Kathleen it seems like they had a better experience with that. The NYX has a nice, creamy application which worked with my lips well. I thought maybe my lips were just dry, but I've been exfoliating and moisturizing them pretty well lately. Anastasia does have fun colors though, the NYX brand is more for everyday wear (in my opinion). Basically I just found the Anastasia liquid lipsticks drying to my lips and I didn't get that feeling with the NYX brand. :) Hope this helps.
Kathleeeen your personality gives me so much life, you are by far the sweetest and my favorite UA-camr. How do you not have 50 million subscribers?? ❤❤
I'm loving lip swatch week and the way you do these swatch videos is ON POINT!! I'd absolutely love to see how you care for your lips after these videos! Favorite lip masks and balms! My lips get super dry all the time, and I feel like I'm constantly putting on chapstick! I have to say though I do love the Fresh Sugar Lip Polish! Makes my lips nice and smooth and isn't too harsh! Love you! XOXO
I've just subscribed to you, so I've yet to see some of your newer videos. But this video shows intelligence beyond your years. You respect our time. Getting right down to business at the very beginning with the swatches and colour name headings throughout the swatch application makes it easy to see exactly what we're looking for. Then the detail afterwords. As someone who has to read reports all day, this is the way things should be organized to respect time and give us the summary right at the beginning without making us wade through fluff or details that are only important to some. Nice job. I hope you've kept this format in your newest videos.
Wow I'm like way early xD so glad this popped up in my feed. It's official kathleeen, every lip color looks good on you 😍🙌 PS: if you're reading this, my boyfriend and I made up....we are going to try and work it out. Thanks for your really positive comment the other night. It really made me feel a lot better. ❤️
Aw, I'm glad things are better. I know exactly how that is when things get super heated and you start to lose hope, and that's just a part of relationships sometimes. I'm happy you were able to work things out and hope you can continue to. :)
Loving lip swatch week! Would love to see it more often. Would really like to see swatches of the maybelline matte lipsticks you were talking about! Can't wait for the rest - bring on payday! x
Its extremely frustrating to see that every lipstick looks so beautiful on you Kathleen! How do you do it!? Haha the red lipstick, matte passion looked especially gorgeous with the eyelid you had! Love the idea of these videos. You are so good at producing the videos that your viewers want to see. Look forward to watching the rest of lip swatch week and whatever else you have in store. Your videos never disappoint!
I like you as a youtuber and a person i bet your such a cool down to earth person and i think we all appreciate how you always put videos up and don't let a week or two pass by
Now THAT is how u do a lip swatch. Not even kidding best lip swatch video I've ever seen u didn't do any stupid annoying faces, it wasn't too long I love how u already had the color on ur lips but went over it, love the great lightning, plus u started with the swatch first without wasting time... really an amazing video. And ur also SOOO pretty so it's really nice to look at ur videos
i just got confident and naked before i even watched your video because i found those 2 shades to be the best and for the most part i really like them!! theyre soo smooth like butter so it isnt hard to get the full pigment out of them you just need to go over your lips a couple times, and even tho i thought confident would be a more darker red its still beautiful and im in love with the shade naked. they dont even feel matte on the lips they dont dry the lips up it literally feels like you have nothing on i love it!
I'm I the only one that watches the clock until it turns to 12 am so that I can see her videos lol these videos give me life!!!! Love you Kat your the best!
Kathleen!! I absolutely love your videos, and you have a great look and personality that sets you apart from other youtubers. I love the lip swatch videos (even though my lips are like red naturally so colors always show up on me different than on other) BUT so many new lip products are coming out for spring so these videos are perfect! My favorite one is Blissful, it smells and tastes really good :) I'm a design student and I always think about how cool and fun it would be to collab with a makeup guru and design a palette or makeup collection, just for fun or for real! Someday when I get the time I'm gonna sketch some ideas and send them to you, your channel is inspiring!
please please please keep doing lipswatch week. Also I preferred when you swatched them all on your arm as opposed to on your hand because with the arm you got to see comparisons as well!! love you and your videos xxx
Love your videos, Kathleen! I really appreciate that you're consistent in uploading videos, you're feeding my makeup addiction, lol! I hope moving goes well, love ya!
I know this is an old video (it's a year old!) but I have to say, I LOVE the music you play in your swatch videos! It's always upkifting and not distracting. Nice job!

How does every lip color on the earth look good on you? I have been watching all of your lip swatch vids and I have not seen a shade yet that didn't flatter you.
Agreed!
I was just about to comment the same! Lol. Every lipstick, blush, and eyeshadow I've ever seen on her looks great.
Agreed!
That's what you get for being neutral toned
I swear you can pull off any lip color Kathleen!! I'm jealous! Like every color you put on looks so beautiful! Congrats on 600,000 subs! So proud!!

You should totally do a vid on how you cared for your lips after all these swatches ! Any lip masks or fav balm ? :)!
Hmm good idea!
KathleenLights I don't know how I come up with these things sometimes ;) lol Goodluck on your move ! Try not to stress too much remember its temporary, you'll be settled in no time!
Angela Contreras I second your idea. I would love to know how to exfoliate my lips and such.
Yes!
Am I the only one who thought throughout the whole video:
"waouh her eye makeup looks amazing. So does her entire face, she looks extra beautiful today !! "
Love you Kathleen !!
Kathleen you should do these more often! You help show me products that I would never thought buying and help me choose colors! Thanks and good luck with the move!
