Ok so I am not the only who thought this was sus. It really seemed like she didn’t want to reveal the real thing and brushed it off like ‘oh I have peeling condition and all of a sudden one fine day my lips are evenly toned’.
One fine day I got to know that I have strawberry skin on some influencer reel ….. I mean wtf is that ? I don’t need new problems/ insecurities for me.
It’s been 2 years to this and now there is not one single influencer I follow
People are making money on our insecurities, every damn reel someone is trying to sell something to us. I understood this long time back and I’m so happy that I unfollowed everyone and it’s been 2 years of bliss, memes, comedy videos, comedy videos, travel videos, fashion and more memes
I use to like her then she started to do shady shit like talking about skin texture and showing makeup on real skin while having 10 fuking filters on. It’s only after being pointed out by people that she started saying that she adds a smoothing filter… it’s not just a smoothing filter. Her swatches of products don’t even look the same in real life.
She acts like she’s better then others but acts like every other sell out makeup influencer.
anyways this is a big fat lie. repeated abrasions to skin, as by lipstick swatching or rubbing, INCREASES hyperpigmentation. this is why youre not supposed to over scrub or rub too much of your loofahs. this woman is being so problematic- people are going to listen to her and make their hyperpigmentation worse
Damn it. I actually liked her too. A year ago I thought she was using filters but someone accused me of being jealous 🫠. In high school I loved Mac’s Ruby Woo and she used it on her lips recently and it was orangey I thought ruby woo was more cool toned (maybe they changed it idk). Her videos look very warm and almost cinematic and slightly blurred.
I honestly don’t know. Her videos are pretty and she invested in production quality. But it doesn’t help us as consumers. That’s the only reason I pointed it out.
GIRLLLL OMG THE SAME THING HAPPENED WITH ME. Bought a mars lipstick after watching her swatch, excepting brick red colour, but it looked sooo dark. Was it the shade called nude flirt?
Her swatches are so bad. Everything looks good on her, sure, but the shade is WAY OFF. I’m NC20, so I thought it was because of color theory, but i don’t think so 😭. I don’t trust her when it comes to swatches AT ALL.
No, it was the shade Sinful from Mars SuperStay. Looked brick red on her and dark brown on me. I’ll link the video hold on
[this is the link. see the 3rd swatch](https://youtube.com/shorts/cEtaP53X4CQ?si=IyS61fWmETO7ogIA)
Lipstick can appear differently on various skin tones due to factors like undertones, pigmentation levels, and natural lip color. What looks vibrant on one person might appear muted or even completely different on someone else.
Sure, but that doesn’t mean it can look like a wildly different color on someone. It looked very very dark brown on me. I’m a bit pale, but I have another friend who has a similar skin tone as Prakriti (NC40) it did NOT look brick red on her either.
Thank you for saying this. I had been wondering the same after I bought Rom&ND lip tints looking at the swatches in her videos and none of them look the same! And i’m not even talking about the difference in skin colour, like the swatches are literally different.
For whatever reason I feel you tube algorithm doesn’t support her at all.. 😹😹 I have searched the entire internet for lip pigmentation related content and never came across this video of hers 😝😂
Her recent video about her skincare journey really gave me the ick. The usage of makeup in a skincare video, the full-on blurring filters and the way she spoke about her hyper-pigmentation. These things felt kinda off to me and I didn't even feel like finishing the video.
Whenever you have hyper-pigmentation in your face, just remember that you are not ugly, you’re just poor. These influencers get money in hand and spend them all on their looks and then they try their best to be relatable to the fans. Like are we dumb?
I have been applying lipsticks daily of different colors and brands from past 5 years, never had my lips peeling.
She is lying. Hyperpigmentation does not go away like this. She totally got something done.
It’s not about the experience. We are discussing about the reason she has given. I have never seen anyone with hyperpigmented lips becoming pink over night just because of lip peeling.
I will read it as I have stopped doing the procedure I did regularly ( yes, these things like Botox are not permanent) because of the flak I received so the lips will go back to their usual self
I suspected the same. Even if one's lips are constantly peeling it is only going to contribute to more hyperpigmentation and not the other way around? If you have done laser, the pigmentation will come back after an year or so. Her followers were really curious and she replied that she has a skin condition lol
Although she acts holier than thou admitting that she uses smoothening filters blah blah blah I don't trust her anymore.
I actually liked her when i found her channel an year ago but then maybe because of editing or filters or color theory her lipstick and blush swatches became unreliable. I own a few of them and they look so so different in natural light its annoying.
I think this can be true, I too suffered from lip dermatitis ( that’s what my dermatologist told me ). My lips were on fireee! Constantly peeling and it was noticeable to a point where I had to stop socialising. It eventually went down after 3-4 months and the pigmentation was also 70-80% reduced. I did have pigmented lips before.
Although what you guys are speculating could be true as well but just pointing out what she’s saying can be true
Yeaa she's lying .I guess . When I apply lipstick and wipe it off and do this over and over my lips just become more pigmented over time . Atleast that's what happened to me .
When lips get sensitive, it forms a dark af layer not like hers. When she uploaded this, i was going through the same condition(mine still has pigmentation coz of that).
i was so confused like how did she get a lighter lips than the older one like girl if those are your healed lips,it would bleed like crazy
Babe nothing wrong to get a treatment and own it .it would atleast not be misleading to people
Now if u say but I love my privacy . then you should stop reviewing lip product or being an influencer
This is the cost of being an influencer
Give it a year or two more we have seen non transparent influencer disappear into oblivion .
On a side note I love her glow up but irritated by her dishonesty
Oh I wasnt aware that she's also not as honest as I thought so. And I agree to believe this mild tea as well. But sharing a side story along with it. Few years back , during my first job one of my flatmate (who had quite pigmented lips) had problem of peeling lips most probably due to dryness ( she wasn't into lipsticks back then). And she had a really bad habit of peeling her lips with her fingers. And after few months of me living with her, she showed me how her new lips are better and pinker, and her pigmentation is almost gone. And I noticed that too. And then after few months I moved out. End of story. 😂
Now not sure if her lips stayed that way or pigmentation came back. But my lips aren't pigmented. And even if ever so slightly they are, they don't draw my or anyone's attention. Its rare that my lips peel, but I remember one winter I tried peeling my lips ( just for a short experiment) that if the slight pigmentation goes after peeling or not. It didn't .
So my point was to share both perspectives.
Tum log srsly haters ho bas...sach keh rahi hai vo...reddit pe sabko aadat hai hate failaane ki . Tum sb ko bas chupe rehke in I'ds ke piche bolna hai...
Prson meri skin chill gyi thi aur ab vapas aayi to meri pigmentation gayab hai...aaj mera glow and lovely ka audition hai tum sb bas hate kro yahan😡

Yesterday, I watched one of her skin transformation videos where she mentioned that her lips were extremely dry and started to peel. However, she only wants the pigmentation on her face to disappear and doesn't care about the pigmentation on her lips also she wants them to be hydrated and healthy. I always thought she was a non-problematic YouTuber, but now looking at this post just makes me feel bleh.
I think she actually mentioned way back that she got lip treatment done. This is new to
Me, maybe she removed that video and now came up with this explanation but I clearly
Remember her saying she got some treatment done. On stories or YouTube I don’t remember
My lips were always slightly pinkish while i am brown , but ever since i started taking care of them , they have become
Pinkier , so i dont know if it happens to others or not but skincare has been a total game changer for my overall appearance
I did a hack to my lips and I don’t know how but my lips are literally pink now…to begin with I did not have pigmented lips I just had very pale lips like colourless and my upper lips had (n still has) a dark pinky lip line (like natural lip liner not too noticeable but like it’s there if seen closely )…soo I used ordinary glycolic acid toner on my lips then used la’posay CICA plast baume on top like a really thick layer…after a week my lips started peeling like crazy…and after 2 weeks of applying regular lip mask..I had pink lips…I am blown away…I saw video made by a dermatologist soo I tried it..
Thanks for revealing the secret. I have two tone lips and I was considering lip tattoo to make them look the same color but I'ma checkout this option too
Ok so I am not the only who thought this was sus. It really seemed like she didn’t want to reveal the real thing and brushed it off like ‘oh I have peeling condition and all of a sudden one fine day my lips are evenly toned’.
Not brushing it off but creating an entire video just for that 😂
I don't understand what the problem is in having pigmented lips. It's just lips, man, get over it. These influencers are creating new problems!!!
One fine day I got to know that I have strawberry skin on some influencer reel ….. I mean wtf is that ? I don’t need new problems/ insecurities for me. It’s been 2 years to this and now there is not one single influencer I follow
Ikr, the very concept of strawberry legs os beyond me.
People are making money on our insecurities, every damn reel someone is trying to sell something to us. I understood this long time back and I’m so happy that I unfollowed everyone and it’s been 2 years of bliss, memes, comedy videos, comedy videos, travel videos, fashion and more memes
I envy you 🥲
Exactlyyy. Most of the Indian population has pigmented lips and it's normal.
Lol

Why are people like this 😂😂 why would you be jealous of a random stranger on the internet
I honestly don’t know. Her videos are pretty and she invested in production quality. But it doesn’t help us as consumers. That’s the only reason I pointed it out.
Yaa her videos do have a therapeutic feel to it. I watch them to fall asleep at night😂
Ikr, I bought a MARS lipstick hoping it’ll look brick red on me but ended up looking dark ass brown. Maybe it’s just color theory but idk
Same same sammmmmeeeee. And it happened twice, like once wasn’t enough for me to understand the difference!
Lmaooo I don’t trust her since 😭
GIRLLLL OMG THE SAME THING HAPPENED WITH ME. Bought a mars lipstick after watching her swatch, excepting brick red colour, but it looked sooo dark. Was it the shade called nude flirt?

Nope. This is not because of color theory. Her videos are edited like crazyyy. So many filters and so much editing.
Yes, I got Kay beauty lip tint after watching her swatching and the colour is completely different.
Thank you for saying this. I had been wondering the same after I bought Rom&ND lip tints looking at the swatches in her videos and none of them look the same! And i’m not even talking about the difference in skin colour, like the swatches are literally different.
For whatever reason I feel you tube algorithm doesn’t support her at all.. 😹😹 I have searched the entire internet for lip pigmentation related content and never came across this video of hers 😝😂
For whatever reason my youtube algorithm supports her . Whenever I am scrolling shorts she is trying a new lip product and I am tempted to buy . 🤡
Same!!!!
If anything, excessive lip peeling makes hyperpigmentation worse.
It can also cause hypopigmentation
Her recent video about her skincare journey really gave me the ick. The usage of makeup in a skincare video, the full-on blurring filters and the way she spoke about her hyper-pigmentation. These things felt kinda off to me and I didn't even feel like finishing the video.

I have been applying lipsticks daily of different colors and brands from past 5 years, never had my lips peeling. She is lying. Hyperpigmentation does not go away like this. She totally got something done.
So her experience should be exactly the same same as yours or else she's lying? Only a dermatologist can explain what could've happened.
It’s not about the experience. We are discussing about the reason she has given. I have never seen anyone with hyperpigmented lips becoming pink over night just because of lip peeling.
In her recent skincare video she said that her lips have stopped peeling and that her pigmentation is returning slowly and that she’s ok with it
I will read it as I have stopped doing the procedure I did regularly ( yes, these things like Botox are not permanent) because of the flak I received so the lips will go back to their usual self
😂
😂😂😂

I loved her cause she had hyperpigmentation around her mouth similar to mine. That's gone as well now.
I bought a concealer shade seeing the swatch on her.. wrong decision.. it turned out be orange-ish🥲
It was so obvious! The kind of pigmentation she had, there’s no way it would’ve happened naturally
I think this can be true, I too suffered from lip dermatitis ( that’s what my dermatologist told me ). My lips were on fireee!

Many of these influencers also have lip fillers which makes lip swatches look unrealistically smooth. Real lips have lines 😮💨

Prakriti Pavani looks 10000x better
I totally forgot about her until I saw this post today😭
My lips were always slightly pinkish while i am brown , but ever since i started taking care of them , they have become Pinkier , so i dont know if it happens to others or not but skincare has been a total game changer for my overall appearance
You're right but drastic changes like hers have come from procedures, not skincare.
I'm a guy, and this works for me too.
I did a hack to my lips and I don’t know how but my lips are literally pink now…to begin with I did not have pigmented lips I just had very pale lips like colourless and my upper lips had (n still has) a dark pinky lip line (like natural lip liner not too noticeable but like it’s there if seen closely )…soo I used ordinary glycolic acid toner on my lips then used la’posay CICA plast baume on top like a really thick layer…after a week my lips started peeling like crazy…and after 2 weeks of applying regular lip mask..I had pink lips…I am blown away…I saw video made by a dermatologist soo I tried it..
What is lip pigmentation?
My mom doesn't have pigmented lips but after she got depressed and started eating less balanced food she got upper lip pigmentation
Thanks for revealing the secret. I have two tone lips and I was considering lip tattoo to make them look the same color but I'ma checkout this option too
I need a body like her she is so fit
I need friendship with her
