The video explores the differences between fake makeup products and their real counterparts under a microscope. The host purchases fake makeup items, including an eyeshadow palette, foundation, and highlighter, from a notorious location and compares them to the real products.
The fake eyeshadow palette, a replica of the Too Faced Sweet Peach palette, has similar packaging but the shadows themselves are less saturated and have debris. Under the microscope, the fake eyeshadows have a "crack situation" with no pigment visible on the eyelid, while the real eyeshadows have a decent amount of shimmery sparkles.
The fake foundation, a replica of Fenty foundation, has different packaging, a gel-like consistency, and is less full-coverage. Under the microscope, the fake foundation is oilier and has a different texture.
The fake highlighter, a replica of the Anastasia Beverly Hills "Moon Child" palette, has thinner cardboard and different colors. The host notes that the fake products have no oversight on ingredients and may contain harmful substances.
The video aims to raise awareness about the dangers of using fake makeup products and the importance of purchasing from authorized retailers.
