The video is a tutorial by a YouTuber who creates a "FrankenPhora" lipstick by melting together lipsticks from all the brands stocked in a Sephora store. The process involves buying all the lipsticks, melting them together, and then pouring the mixture into molds to form new lipstick tubes.

The video ends with a giveaway for the lipsticks, asking viewers to suggest a name for the lipstick in the comments below.
