So I've seen a lot of makeup under a microscope videos floating around, so I wanted to get in on the fun and get a microscope of my own to see what I could see! I got some knockoff makeup products from Santee Alley downtown, and then compared those to their real counterparts under a microscope to expose the differences up close on my skin! We took a look at the Sweet Peach Palette, Fenty Foundation, Moonchild Palette, Better Than Sex Mascara, and Kylie Lip Kit.

Also, apologies for the "horseshoe" typo!! Whoops, lol.

    HELLO FRIENDS!! ah yes, another gross microscope video to add to the list.... what do you guys think of these products? I would say "would you try this?" but I don't want any of y'all using unregulated fake makeup!! But I do condone the use of a microscope in pretty much any situation. xoxo, saf

    Not sure if anyone has done this but maybe like foundation with and without "pore filling" primer, under a microscope. To see if it actually does anything.

    I absolutely love it when she says: “Alright.”
  • safiya: scientists have found mercury, cyonide, and even animal feces. also safiya: I will be putting this on my face. Remember kids do as I say don't do as I do.
  • @madi3089
    She speaks so clearly, even the auto generated captions are correct.

    YOU SHOULD DO A VIDEO TO SEE WHICH MAKEUP REMOVER TAKES OFF THE MOST MAKEUP (wipes, face wash, etc.) because they all advertise that they do but a lot of times they don’t! Then you can look at your skin with the microscope to see which took off the most!!

    My biggest takeaway is that all makeup looks disgusting when looked at under a microscope.
  • @AvaDiGiovanni
    Omg imagine the frankenstein makeup underneath the microscope!

    I just wanted to say that your content and your comfortableness with your body hair has really helped me be more accepting of mine, I used to get bullied for how hairy my arms are, but seeing you be so comfortable with yourself and your body hair has really helped me overcome my insecurities regarding it, so I just want to say thank you and I love your content ❤️

    I love how she uses a cards against humanity to hold her mirror 😂
  • @notmj2004
    Everyone: Fake makeup is dangerous! Safiya: But content
  • @maeved420
    She’s like the only YouTuber I know that can pull of crazy colored lipstick! 🤨😂🤣
  • @CodyWhitlock
    Society: “These fake make ups are dangerous” Safiya: “watch me put them on my skin” 😂
  • @laylasalem7627
    you should try different face masks and see what your skin looks like before and after with the microscope 🔎
