Hello friends! Bad makeup science is back! Wait no, not bad makeup science -- potentially good makeup science! Or, at least okay makeup science.

So a few months ago while I was jonesing to melt something, I encountered this book -- called Make It Up, by Marie Rayma -- which details how to make pretty much every beauty and body product you can think of, custom and from scratch. And being the lipstick fiend that I am, I decided to follow one of her lipstick recipes to make myself a custom lipstick (color and base) from scratch. What do you think of my final color? What product should we tackle next?

Just a quick note re: the mask test - this video was filmed in April, which was before the mask mandates were lifted where we live!

    i love how “bad makeup science” has transitioned to “maybe ok makeup science”
  • At this point, the amount of wax in Saf's house (candles and lipstick) is probably enough to make her own wax figure.

    Safi is the only Youtuber/Influencer that, if she ever released beauty products, I would 100% believe she's part of the process and not just posing for Instagram with a white coat on.
  • @katttt227
    the fact that i stopped watching her for like a year and she’s still obsessed with lipstick and still has the same intro is just impressive to me

    I feel like having Marie in your name is some sort of prerequisite for being a lifestyle guru. Marie Kondo, Ann Marie the soap queen, and now Marie Rayma...
  • @safiyaandtyler
    Should we make and ship some homemade "Millennial Prunes"? We have left over ingredients hehe...

    My husband and I don’t watch sports, but we kinda felt like we were those people yelling at a game on TV when we were going, “BLUE!!! You need to add some blue!!!” 😂
  • @rhodellee
    safiya can literally pull off absolutely any shade of lipstick, and still look gorgeous every time, HOW
  • @LalyZeee
    Once Saf makes her own lipstick brand its over for everyone
  • @ReeniBoBeeni
    Honestly I feel like you should do a whole series of making your own makeup and then testing against store bought, like have it face off (haha) against a drug store brand, then a nicer brand, then designer brand, etc. that would be a lot of fun to watch!

    18:16 "I think we created my lip color" made me laugh so much more than it should have LMAO just watching the application and thinking "is anything even getting on?" also calling it hotdog literally a few seconds before is pretty funny too, considering how it lines up.
  • Fun fact: Jojoba oil is actually super close to the oils we produce naturally, hence why a lot of beauty products use that oil as a carrier oil, and why it’s also used super often in nail oils (basic recipe is same amount of vitamin e oil and jojoba oil), because it soaks in super easily, and helps carry things like vitamin e directly into the skin or nail bed.

    as a painter, watching her mix the first lipstick colors together I immediately knew it was going to be nowhere near pinky-gray enough. I kept shouting "ADD SOME BLUE, JUST A SMIDGEON, PLEASE"
  • @kyliestamey2646
    Was waiting for the moment when a lipstick was made with every pigment mixed together
  • I always forget that Safiya and Tyler know less than nothing about color theory until they do one of these videos 😅
  • @gelato3.13.20
    safiya and tyler are both so witty, like the amount of pop culture references they can come up with on such a whim is so wild and cool
  • @HumblebeeAndMe
    😱 OH MY GOODNESS! I think you just made my 2021, Safiya 😄 I'm so thrilled you enjoyed making your own lipstick with me and I will probably stop vibrating sometime before August. Definitely reach out if you have any questions! ❤️
  • Saf, I'd suggest a new lipstick test: Hair getting in face test. The other day I was outside in the wind with my hair loose and I was wearing lipstick... my hair kept sticking to my lipstick and it actually transferred to the rest of my face like tiny single hair brush strokes
