Hi Viviana:-) I adore your name! Thank you for your kind words:-) The reason I do the different lighting is because it really shows the undertones, etc. Before I started my channel, I would see lipstick reviews in unnatural lighting and it would leave me with more questions than answers. LOL. I am so happy my video was useful to you:-)
Five Fifty Five yes!! It makes such a difference! I thank you but my bank account is a different story 😂 but seeing them in their true shade just made me “need” them ❤️
@@vivian318 I am so sorry! LOL. But hopefully all the shades shown in different lighting + honest swatches (lack of studio lighting) will help make a more successful purchase. That's my hope when I make these videos. I hate buying and returning a lippy because the studio lighting (on websites) showcased a completely different lipstick hue than what I actually bought. Our bank accounts have no time for that!:-) Thanks again for being a sweetie;-)
Oh my gosh they ALL look gorgeous on you! But you are right, Red Hot Susan tops them all! And it is the one that looks great (consistent) in all the different lightings! Some of the others are tricky because they almost look similar to each other then when you go outside, u can tell the differences :) Great video! Not sure if you have already done this but, i would love to see a video explaining the different formulas of all her lippies. :) You may have touched base on this with the OG vs med and dark pillow talk already.
Thank you!!! You are a sweetie;-) Yes! Red Hot Susan is a bright and consistently gorgeous colour in any type of lighting. That's actually pretty rare with a lot of lipstick hues. I am stoked that you see that:-) I think I am going to do a video on CT's different formulas. I have touched on them in past videos but it's kind of confusing. Thanks so much for watching my videos. I really appreciate it:-)
This was super helpful! I have a warm/olive skin tone (Indian/Pakistani). Would you recommend Glowing Jen or Stoned Rose for me? What's the difference between the two? Thanks so much ❤
This is such a great question! Honestly, if you want a bit of drama on the pout I would go with Glowing Jen. It has that tawny base and that's what makes it pop! BUT I really like Stoned Rose as well because it's on the brighter-coral side...giving it a more youthful face brightening pop! What type of hues do you usually gravitate towards?
Hi Lydia:-) Thank you so very much!!!! This makes me so happy. I work hard on my videos, so it's lovely to know that they are helpful :-) Thanks for reaching out!
Holly Molly you are beautiful!😘 I have always wanted to try a Charlotte tilbury lipstick. Does Charlotte tilbury have lipsticks that look good on tan dark skin tones?
Hi Gorgeous! You are very kind -thank you so much! Can you send me images on IG? I need to see your skin tone in different types of lighting. And yes! Charlotte does have lipsticks that would be great for your skin tone...I just need to see it more clearly. 💕instagram.com/five_fifty_five/
OMG that Penelope Pink is amazing, Have to pick that up, thank you so much for the awesome reviews. For a nude in CT I like the Alessandra one...very peachy nude....
Thank you so much for the recommendation:-) I will put the Alessandra shade on my list - I love a good peachy nude lipstick! I'm so happy you like my reviews:-) Thanks for your time and kind words:-)
OMG I want ALL of them but I'm broke lol! It's so interesting how the lighter colours work so well on you bc I have a sample of pillow talk and that doesn't even work for me :( I have an olive/ warm Pakistani undertone. What lip liner would you recommend? And omg that red is stunning - would you say that it is more universal and wearable than Lisa Eldridge's red lipstick? Your videos make it so easy to narrow down her lipsticks
Hi Abir:-) I feel you! Your skin colour sounds amazing! I am so sorry about Pillow Talk. I have more yellow/gold in my skin tone maybe that's why Pillow Talk works for me BUT I know you can rock colours that I can't ;-) Do you have an IG? I can send you swatches of lip liners that I like. I need to do a top 10 lip liner video soon. I love Lisa's red lipsticks, but yes, I think there is something so special about Red Hot Susan. It has a golden tawny undertone that makes different skin tones dance;-) I am beyond happy that my videos are helpful when deciding your next lippy purchase! THANK YOU SO MUCH!:-) instagram.com/five_fifty_five/
You are very sweet! Thank you so much for being an Angel:-) I do not wear CT foundation but my go-to (and what I am wearing in my review) is shade 6 in Luminous Silk Foundation by Armani Beauty: www.giorgioarmanibeauty-usa.com/makeup/foundation-makeup/liquid-foundation/luminous-silk-foundation/3360372026136.html?cm_mmc=GooglePS-_-ProductSearch-_-LUMINOUSSILKFOUNDATION-_-None&GeoRedirectOff&gclid=CjwKCAjwq_D7BRADEiwAVMDdHmoZVGfVK_JGl6uM64ePw7Ccm0DgkOr6QLcOjz7uiHHa9GVUItIbSRoCpTYQAvD_BwE
I am using Nars concealer in the shade Ginger: www.sephora.com/search?keyword=nars%20concealer If you ever need swatches of the lipsticks that I review or the foundation that I use please feel free to contact me on IG - I love to help!:-) instagram.com/five_fifty_five/
Awwww you are too sweet!! 🥰 I’m using Nars concealer in ginger, too! I already picked up many of the CT lipsticks according to your reviews and they turned out great on my skin tone. Thanks to you! Yayyy 🥳🤗
@@FiveFiftyFive Tough questions haha... I love them all 😆 But MRS Kisses is probably the easiest to throw on with or without make up. I love your reviews. They are the best and you are such a beauty! 🤩🤩🤩
I love all shades on you, but my favorite was Red hot Susan ❤ I want to buy it now….I have a little darker skin tone so I hope it looks as good on me as it does on you 😊 thanks for sharing
Not yet! That hue is on my "try on" list! Thank you so much for watching my videos:-) I love making them because it helps you and others not waste your hard earned mula on unwanted lip shades ;-) Have a wonderful Turkey Day:-)
Great question! They are similar to a point. Pillow Talk OG is a warm pink vs Wedding Bells has a darker brown almost light tobacco brown in the undertone of the hue. Pillow Talk is a flirter pink hue. PT is a bit brighter and less moody than Wedding Bells.
My hands down favourite Summer lippy is Coachella Coral- even though I dabble with Amazing Grace & Sexy Sienna (both of which are gorgeous shades) I end up swiping them off and going with Coachella Coral (now known as Coral Kiss) every time 🤣. Bitch Perfect is definitely next on my purchase list though, and I’ve yet to try any of the Hot Lips 2 collection...
Hi Lovely:-) Now I need to check out Coral Kiss -it looks amazing! Please let me know what you think when you grab Bitch Perfect. I think it's going to look fantastic on you;-) The Hot Lips 2 Collection is fun but take your time, CT has so many lipsticks...my pocket book can't keep up. LOL
Five Fifty Five , haha, so true- once you experience her lip formulas it becomes almost a compulsion to increase your collection 🤣. I’ve restricted myself to one order per month 🤪 . I’ve gotten my hands on Bitch Perfect, Miranda May & Walk of (No) Shame since I posted my original comment, along with minis of Patsy Red and Viva Vergera. I’ve been wearing Bitch Perfect with Hot Gossip liner or a L’Oreal lip liner (perhaps Beige au Nu or something like that?)and she’s very pretty for sure! 😍. I think whilst I’m quite tanned at the moment the richer toned lip liner (Hot Gossip) is kind of necessary to stop it looking too “deadening” on me, but, as I fade back to my winter plumage, I reckon I’ll get away with the lighter one more often 😄. I already knew I would love Walk of Shame, that goes without saying. 😄. Miranda May has been added to my summer favourite list though, it’s sooo beautiful 🥰 and bright- I’m loving the confidence these corals are giving me to delve into wearing brighter shades outwith the safety of my home 😂. Alas, temperatures are begin to take a dip here in the Highlands and Autumn is coming a knocking, so I’ll be starting to reach for the more berry and brown tones... talking of which, I didn’t expect to love Viva Vergera, but I do. She’s like Secret Salma x Bond Girl, very beautiful and very (surprisingly) everyday wearable. Anyhoo, I was eyeing up my next purchases today, and debating whether I should bother with any more lip products at the moment, given we’re required to wear masks everywhere, including when meeting with clients at the office. I am eyeing up those Jewel Eye Pots though... 😍
@@w33burd I love the sound of your lipstick collection! The Hot Gossip liner is a shade I wanted to check out! I love your colour breakdown and comparisons as well, now I want to check out Viva Vergara lipstick -sounds so beautiful! Due to covid it's allllll about the eyes right now. I just purchased one of CT's jewel pot cream eyeshadows in a rose gold hue. It's really pretty. Please keep me in the loop if you grab one;-) Honestly, your colouring is gorgeous and I think most lip colours would look awesome on you:-)
This is the best video I have seen because of the outdoor and indoor lighting. It really makes a difference. All of those shades look great on you!! ❤
I love how detailed your videos are. Thank you so much for making them, you're so helpful🥰 Keep going!
Thank you so very much:-) You are so welcome!
This is the best lipstick video I’ve ever seen. Love it.
Thank you so very much!💕💕💕💕
Yes!!! Omg this is how all lipsticks should be swatches! I want to see the shades In indoor lighting and outdoor ❤️

I simply ADORE your hair. Mine was similar until hormones did their part. Thanks for the lightning comparison.

Can you tell me your skintone and MAC foundation shade so that I kinda have a reference to the skin color for me to know what look good on me?

My fave with a smokey eye is Very Victoria 😍
I really like Very Victoria but it doesn't like me:-( I think it looks better on deeper more bronzed skin tones.
Lovely. You’re making me want to buy more CT lipsticks. I’ve promised my husband no more buying makeup until November. Haha.
I feel you! My husband gives me a look when a package arrives. LOL! Tell your hubs that I am very sorry;-)
