I have been testing out the new Lakme Enrich Lip Crayons since quite some time now and here are my thoughts..
Claims: Get smooth and matte finish lips with this lip colour crayon by Lakmé that is infused with mineral powders. It has a soft texture and is available in 10 gorgeous shades that suit all Indian skin tones. It also has a rich blend of olive and jojoba oil that simultaneously conditions your lips. For your convenience, the all new Lakmé Enrich Lip Crayon comes with a sharpener.
Application: Step 1: Open the cap and start applying the product from the centre of your upper lip.
Step 2: Worked from the centre towards the outer edges of your lip, following the contours of your mouth.
Step 3: Glide the product across the entire bottom lip.
Step 4: This step is optional but you could use a tissue to blot out the extra product.
The packaging is exactly like color crayons, apart from the black cap, the qty of 14g is pretty good and each crayon comes with it’s own dual sided sharpener to sharpen whenever the tip gets blunt.
L-R: Berry Red, Red Stop, Candid Coral, Mauve Magic, Shocking Pink, Cinnamon Brown
They have a semi matte finish, neither creamy nor the drying matte. And they stay for 3-4 hours, lighter colours of 2-3 hours but won’t survive full meal. It does survive tea and light snacks and fades away evenly and gradually. But they are very easy to carry along and reapply.
They are very comfortable and light weight on the lips and apply smoothly, do not tug at all. They do not accentuate dry patches and lines but they would be visible.
Overall, I feel they are pretty good value for money and I do recommend them. My favourite shades are Cinnamon Brown, Mauve Magic, Shocking Pink and Red Stop. Cinnamon Brown is the perfect MLBB shade for me, a must have everyday wear nude.
Have you tried the new Lakme Enrich Lip Crayons? What do you think?
These days the harsh summers are unrelenting in their heat, so each one must take care of their skin from breaking too. BB creams hence are a total rage as different brands in India have presented new formulations and new types that suit diverse skin tones and types. BB stands for a beauty balm and even some context, a blemish balm.
BB creams are multi-taskers as they are all-rounders when talking about an all-round cream that can moisturize, protect the skin from sun and even work as a foundation. It is a moisturizer, primer, sunscreen, and foundation rolled all in one. Although they cannot conceal major flaws, but can even out skin tones easily. They are a boon for working women, who must face the harsh sun, work for long hours, and even suffer from faded skin due to too much exposure. Some women are BB cream junkies, and have literally tried almost every option available in the market. Although you might have failed to find the ideal BB cream for your own skin type, one can pick up one from the following list of the best BB creams that are effective this summer.
⦁ Maybelline Clear Glow Shine Free BB Stick
The BB stick is a favorite of many people during summers. If you have oily skin and need light to medium coverage with a brilliant matte effect, then this stick can deliver it. It also allows for quick application in a few strokes and the glow will always be there. There only 2 shades available for the stick though.
⦁ Garnier All in one Miracle Perfector BB Cream
This BB cream is great budget option that delivers the much-needed glow during summers. It can even out the skin tone beautifully and all people who have oily or normal skin can use it. It comes in a single shade but is perfect for all skin tones.
⦁ Ponds White Beauty BB + Fairness Cream
This Ponds cream is capable enough to brighten up the skin instantly with good coverage option for concealing minor flaws. The cream boasts of SPF 30 that is suitable for all skin types and lasts for about 6-7 hours. Its single shade will suit light to medium skin tones too.
⦁ Deborah Milano 5 in 1 BB Cream
This BB cream provides great coverage with a matte finish while also providing 6 whopping shades to choose from.
⦁ MAC Prep and Prime Beauty Balm – SPF 35
This prime beauty balm is an ideal BB cream for many as it consists of multiple shades along with high SPF. Although it is pricey, its features and range offers bang for the buck.
⦁ Maybelline Clear Glow BB Cream
This version is different than the stick version as if offers an ideal BB cream for normal to dry skin. Additionally, consumers prefer it owing to its low coverage and availability in three shades. Certainly, one of the favorites!
⦁ Colorbar Perfect Match Beauty Balm
Colorbar is a perfect BB for oily skin and in places where humidity is quite high. The balm can balance out skin tone giving out a warm, brightening effect. Although its price is not low-end, it certainly makes waves as a near-affordable option for people with oily skin.
⦁ L’oreal Paris True Match Skin Idealizing BB Cream
Now here is a BB cream that is indeed workable as its name suggests. It has a velvet finish and hence it is ideal for use on all skin types. It adapts to your skin tone very well looking very natural and is available in 3 shades.
⦁ Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream
This brand is from Korea and is known to be one of the most effective BB creams, certainly ranking as one of the very best. The good part is that the cream comes in 5 shades, with SPF 42. It is compatible with all types of skins and perfect for summers.
⦁ Clinique Age Defense BB Cream with SPF 30
The age defense BB cream includes several anti-oxidants, which repair skin and is also known for the amount of coverage and its SPF of 30 perfect for normal as well as oily skin. This is one BB cream that is priced high but certainly a favorite for anyone who do not feel price is any issue.
The above list includes some of the best BB creams in the country which are available at Shoppers Stop.

I hope you liked this video, let me know your favourites in the comments below.
If you remember my huge Makeup Geek Haul (if not, check HERE), I am doing an updated post on the review of all products with swatches.
Starting with the Sparklers, these are loose glitter pigments.
A sparkle beyond compare, Makeup Geek Sparklers go where no cosmetics company has gone before! Loose, reflective particles create a glitter-like effect that is out of this world.
For maximum impact, Sparklers are best applied with an eye-safe cosmetics adhesive.
Duochrome and beautiful, the shades are very unique. If you spray some setting spray and use them, they almost come out as pigmented shadows without the glitter texture. They are very multi purpose and I do recommend them.
Shades seen here are..
L-R: Stargazer, Zodiac, Solstice
Solstice is a pista green with silver shimmer
Zodiac is a sky blue with pink and purple shimmer
Stargazer is a light champagne white with gold shimmer
Zodiac and Stargazer are to be discontinued soon, so if you are interested in them, buy soon!
Coming to the Full Spectrum Eyeliner Pencils, these are super creamy and pigmented! And again, some unique and pretty shades. They glide on like butter and stay put whole day. I even use them on my waterline or on the upper lashline or as a eyeshadow base.
The pan size of 4.25g is huge, these are highly pigmented and totally worth the price.
Spellbound is a matte peachy pink
Romance is a peachy coral gold, a famous NARS Orgasm dupe.
Romance, Spellbound
Coming to the contouring powders, I have Complicated and Infidelity. I was highly impressed by the colours, this is the first company I see coming with proper cool toned contour powders and for different skin tones.
Complicated is for cool medium and Infidelity is for cool fair. I usually use Complicated, but if I want a very sharp contour, then I may use Infidelity or mix the two.
I love how these gives perfectly defined and chiseled cheekbones. Cool toned powders work perfectly for creating shadows.
Again super pigmented and you need just a tiny wee bit, these huge pans are going to last forever. Very economical.
Complicated, Infidelity
Talking about my favourite now, eyeshadows. Let’s start with something that blew my mind! The foiled eyeshadows!
I have never seen such pigment with any eyeshadow in any brand ever! These are beautiful, gorgeous and I can stare at them whole day.
I have the shades In The Spotlight, Grandstand, Starry Eyed, Magic Act, Day Dreamer.
Magic Act is a muted medium gold. This will work beautiful with Indian outfits.
Day dreamer is a cool toned light lilac
Grandstand is a medium rose gold, again beautiful with Indian wear.
L-R: Magic Act, Daydreamer, GrandstandL-R: Ritzy, In The Spotlight, Starry Eyed
Ritzy is a warm reddish brown with green and gold duochrome reflects, most unique shade I have ever seen! (It is a normal duochrome, not foiled. Sorry for the confusion, this one is $6)
In The Spotlight is soft coral pink, it works as a center shadow with numerous looks!
Starry Eyed is champagne pinky beige
And their normal eye shadows, which are $6 each and a total value for money! These are absolute must haves.
Frappe is a medium brown
Cocoa Bear is a reddish brown
Creme Brulee is a soft peachy brown
Mocha is a deep matte brown
Shimma Shimma is a metallic champagne
Frappe, Cocoa Bear and Creme Brulee are great transition shades for the crease to layer up one by one or blend two shadows together. Mocha is a nice outer corner shade to deepen the colours on the outer V and Shimma Shimma is a good inner corner/highlight shade or the center shadow.
L-R: Cosmopolitan, Bitten, Corrupt, Moondust
Cosmopolitan is a rose gold with gold shimmer
Bitten is a matte berry maroon
Corrupt is an intense matte charcoal black! The most pigmented black shadow ever, in any brand!
Moondust is a metallic silver taupe
I have picked these shades out of the number of shades they have, after watching numerous videos and seeing a lot of blogs. These are like the absolute must haves if you planning to place an order on makeupgeek.com
All Makeup Geek products are animal friendly, paraben and talc free and made in USA. They are super affordable for the price and I highly recommend them. For that price and quality, they are a steal!

Indian Summer Makeup Tutorial | Gold Eyes and Blue Liner
Hi guys,
I created this summer makeup tutorial apt for casual outings or even summer weddings, especially if you have blue and gold in your outfit.
I used cushion foundation and very little highlighter as you don’t want a heavy base for summers and too much shimmer on the face, coz you sweat anyway.
Products used:
PAC Cosmetics Pore Primer
MAC Conceal & Correct Palette Medium Deep
The Body Shop Fresh Nude Cushion Foundation Malawi Beach
Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer Light
Wet N Wild Mega Glo Contouring Powder- Yellow
NYX Ombre Blush Feel The Heat
Makeup Geek Contouring Powder Complicated
NYX Refine & Define Powder Foundation
Becca Champagne Pop
NYX Dream Catcher Palette in Golden Horizons
NYX Gel Liner & Smudger in Cobalt Blue
MAC Modern Twist Kajal Cat’s Meow
Colourpop Honeydude Eyeliner
PAC Retro Matte Gloss 36 and 36
NYX Dewy Finish Setting Spray
YBP Makeup Perfector
The gold gives a nice warmth to the summer look and the pop of blue liner adds come colour. For the lips, I didn’t want something too bright or light, so mixed the two pinks to get the perfect rosy pink.
I hope you liked the look, do let me know your thoughts in the comments below 🙂
So PAC revamped their retro matte gloss formula and now we have a new packaging too. Also they introduced 20 more shades, so now there are in total 40 shades.
All the shades 1 to 40 are now sold in the new formula and packaging, and are available on Amazon.
It comes in this new ombre black and the shade colour packaging i.e. red, pink, nude at the bottom as per the shade. All the shades have numbers though, there are no names.
It has a flat tip applicator, I do prefer this applicator in liquid lipsticks as the broader applicators smear on the edges and corners of lips and give no control.
21 to 25
As per the claims, it is indeed very light weight and opaque in one swipe. These are very pigmented, you will need a good solid oil based makeup remover to take these off. But they don’t feel heavy on the lips, in fact I was testing these at home and I didn’t feel like I had anything on my lips.
26 to 30
They don’t have any smell/fragrance which is good. They take about 1-2 minutes to dry down completely and once set, they are smudge proof and transfer proof. So be careful while applying, because you won’t be able to correct mistakes later.
31 to 35
They stay for about 4-5 hours and the deeper colours for 6-7 hours, the only problem is they fade away quickly from the center in about 1-2 hours, so you will need to reapply at the center.
36 to 40
They are not very drying, but you will need to use a lip balm beneath because it will emphasize fine lines on the lips like all matte liquid lipsticks.
I love the new shades they have introduced, especially 36 to 40. There are no Indian brands which have shades like 36 to 40, a good true nude brown, and an orangey brown.
36, 37 and 38 I feel are quite similar to Kat Von D Liquid Lipsticks in Double Dare, Lolita and Lolita II respectively.
There are good berries/wines and chocolate brown too. Rest of them are reds, pinks and peaches.
Overall, I would say the new formula, packaging, shades are really good. I like the price and quantity too. I do recommend them.
If you are in Mumbai/Delhi/Bangalore, here are the PAC store details..
I went to Bangkok in December and since I was there only for a day and got just few hours to shop, here are the things I bought..
Daiso Brown Mat Tray
Daiso Pink Jewellery Organiser
Daiso Eyebrow Pencil
Daiso Brown Eyeliner Pen
Daiso Eyelash Glue
3 pairs of False Lashes
Set of 3 Facial Razors
Daiso Makeup Brush Cleanser
Mini Tripod
All the things from Daiso were 60 THB (i.e. Rs.112/-) In terms of organisation stuff, it was heaven! They had so much and I didn’t have space, so had to restrict myself. It’s like a dollar store, so everything is flat 60 bahts mostly, and then in denomination of 60. It’s a Japanese 100 yen brand/store, I so wish they come to India and have the flat 99 price, that would be amazing. They are in talks with Reliance Retail to enter India and I hope that happens soon.
Then I got two Mistine products from Beauty Station..
Mistine 3D Brows Secret Eyebrow Set – Around Rs.500
Mistine Eye & Lip Makeup Remover- Around Rs.400-450/-
There was a Wet N Wild Kiosk and I got 4 things from Wet N Wild, which was very reasonably priced.
Wet N Wild Mega Glo Contouring Face Palette Rs.560
Wet N Wild Eyeshadow Single Brass- Rs.185
Wet N Wild Megalast Lip Colour Bare It All- Rs.260
Wet N Wild Eye Pencil in Calling Your Buff Naturel- Rs.223
And lastly I got the DHC Deep Cleansing Oil. I have heard so much about this and I am glad I finally found it. It’s a much raved product and deep cleanses your pores and removes makeup, dirt, grime, everything from your pores. This was a little on the expensive side, costing around Rs.850-900 but the quantity is pretty good. They also gave a few samples.
That’s it for beauty and makeup part. I got a lot of food items i.e. candies and knick-knacks which I will do a separate food tasting video for, on my YouTube channel.
I hope you liked the haul, do let me know your favourite item in the comments below 🙂
#MACxMickeyContractor Indian Beauty Essentials Natural Makeup Look, Tips & Tricks
Hi guys,
So towards the end of March, I attended a session with MAC Cosmetics where Mickey Contractor, Director of Makeup Artistry, MAC India and celebrity Bollywood Makeup Artist, taught us to create a flawless base and a step by step Natural Indian Look!
I was so stoked and happy, I had no idea till I reached the venue that we had to do it step by step with him and he would be teaching us. I thought it was a regular event where the video will be unveiled, etc., but no, we saw the video and we created the whole look on ourselves with Mickey checking each step and teaching us how to do it correctly.
The video came out today and hence I wrote this post half way through earlier and saved in my drafts, because many of you asked me to share the tips and tricks and I thought I should jot them down quickly.
Here is the video..
So here are few tips and tricks Mickey taught us:
Always moisturise your face and undereyes before starting with your base. Mickey recommends MAC Studio Moisture Cream. He even mixes it later with the foundation when he needs a sheer look.
Spray MAC Fix Plus after the Moisture Cream and then start with concealer/corrector.
Everyone has dark circles and that is completely natural. If you try to layer too much of concealer and powder, it will only look ashy and settle in fine lines and crease. So correct and conceal once, go over the concealed area with a foundation and set with powder.
We used the MAC Pro Conceal and Correct Palette and he made us mix the concealer and both correctors on our hands to get the perfect match first. And then apply it on the dark circles. It made world of a difference. I mixed the corrector and concealer directly on the under eye area and applied it on one half and it was still looking ashy. I used the Medium palette which had shades close to and lighter to my skin tone. And the lighter concealer was making the dark circles look ashy. He made me take the yellow and orange corrector and the concealer shade on the back of my hand from the Medium Deep Palette, mix it in and add more untill I got the perfect peach. And then I applied it to cover dark circles, it was a perfect match!
He usually goes for the same color or a darker concealer for the under eye area and then covers that area with foundation for a seamless, even toned base.
Always match the foundation to your neck and body and in natural light only. Wear it through the day to check if it oxidizes and then go ahead and buy your perfect match.
Dab powder with a sponge on the under eye area and the T zone and take excess off with a brush. Never swipe concealer/powder. Always dab!
Take your eyelash curler till the base of the lashes and press and release the curler till count of 10, hold for 3-4 seconds and leave. Voila, you get amazing well curled lashes.
To define your cheekbones, apply blush in a slight slanted upward motion and just for a flush of colour, on the apples of your cheeks.
Dab the sponge on your highlighter to blend it in with the skin and take it slightly around the under eye area as it should not be a stark slanted highlighted line on top of your cheekbones and look seamless.
Always apply foundation on the neck if you are doing your whole face or just apply foundation partially like only on T zone and problem areas. There shouldn’t be a stark/visible difference between face and neck.
Clean and natural base using minimal products is his USP. He doesn’t like sharp contouring and highlighting, bold brows and all that you see on YouTube and Instagram these days.
He has done numerous Bollywood movies and magazine covers especially Aishwarya Rai, Kajol and Rani Mukherjee’s makeup and you can see how he loves a clean base, natural look and dark kohled eyes. He is a master of the Bollywood Smokey Eye.
In this video, he teaches a Natural Indian Look with a light smoke of kohl which is perfect for summers.
I used these products to create the look, as shown in the video..
MAC Pro Conceal & Correct Palette in Medium Deep
MAC Studio Fix Fluid NC37
MAC Cream Colour Base Hush
MAC Eyeshadow Embark
MAC Modern Twist Kajal Cat’s Meow
MAC In Extreme Dimension Lash Mascara Volume
MAC Mocha Blush
MAC Lipstick in Half n Half
MAC Brushes 217 and 168
The Conceal & Correct Palette helps you mix and match the exact amount of concealer and corrector till you get your perfect shade. This palette is also a must have if you are a makeup artist or do your friends and family’s makeup.
MAC Conceal & Correct Palette Medium Deep
Embark is a matte deep brown eyeshadow with red undertones. It is a perfect shade for a wash of colour like we have done here or for a soft smokey day time look, smudging it with a black kohl pencil underneath. We have used the Modern Twist Kajal in Cat’s Meow, which is the black shade as kohl on the waterline. If you like jet carbon black kohl, you can go for Squid. Gently smudge Embark on the lower lash line to merge the kohl and shadow. Flick the kohl slightly to create a wing like effect. Tightline with Cat’s Meow
Mocha, Hush, Embark
MAC Blush in Mocha is a matte soft peach colour which is very flattering on Indian skin tones, fair to medium especially. MAC Cream Colour Base in Hush gives a very soft and subtle highlight and can also be used all over eyes as a base or to highlight brow bone and inner corners.
MAC Half n Half Lipstick is a satin finish nude brown, I absolutely love this shade. It reminded me of Maybelline My Mahagony which was my favourite nude and was discontinued later on. But I highly recommend Half N Half if you are looking for a good, everyday wear nude shade.
MAC Half N Half
I love how simple this look is, and yet pretty and polished. Clean base, neutral tones and kohl rimmed eyes, suitable for any occasion and works for everyone.
I hope you liked this post and found it helpful. Do let me know your thoughts in the comments below.
MAC Pro Longwear Concealer NC42 Review, Swatches, Buy Online
By Sanchita
INTRODUCTION – I have been planning to buy this concealer for a long time and when it was available online, I immediately picked this up. I once tried this concealer at a MAC store and loved the consistency and coverage. MAC is known for their extraordinary base products with an array of shade range. Having used the product for quite some time, here’s my review on the product.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION – A lightweight fluid concealer that provides medium to full coverage with a comfortable, natural matte finish. Colour-true formula lasts up to 15 hours. Helps conceal and correct the look of under-eye circles, and discolorations. Comes in a clear glass vial with a matte black pump.
PRICE – Rs. 2100/ $22.00 for 9 ml / 0.30 US fl. oz. (Available on Nykaa)
MY REVIEW
The MAC Pro Longwear Concealer has a convenient packaging for travelling. It comes in a transparent bottle with a black opaque pump and the packaging is really sturdy. Although, it is hygienic and travel friendly, it has downside too. The pump dispenses a lot of product in a single pressure and sometimes you need end up wasting it. And honestly, you don’t want to waste a product from MAC. Therefore, the packaging fares well but nothing something I prefer.
Coming to its consistency, I would say it is medium. The texture is slightly runny but the moment you start blending, it kind of turns creamy. The best thing about the product is that it gives a medium to full coverage. Every liquid concealer I have used so far sheers out and we just end up wasting money. Therefore, I was very careful while purchasing this one. The concealer is also water proof and smudge proof. Once you have set the concealer, it is not going to smudge or spread at all.
I use this concealer mainly for under eyes and I have extreme dark circles. I simply apply a faint layer of orange corrector and apply this concealer with the help of my fingers. And using a blending sponge, blend the product. It completely hides the dark circles and gives a fresh, awake look.
Now, the shade range of MAC is outstanding and one can’t complain about it at all. I chose the shade NC42 because it matches my skin tone. I didn’t want the highlighting effect at all therefore went with something natural. For minor discolorations, pigmentation and acne cover also the concealer works like a charm.
The blending is really easy and it doesn’t cling on the dry areas of the face or eyes at all. Since, my eye area is extremely dry, I use an eye cream prior the application of product. The concealer gives a natural matte finish and would work great with oily and combination skin. It causes little to no creasing of under eyes if you set with a translucent powder. However, if you have dry skin, make sure you use the appropriate hydrating emollient to make the concealer work smoothly.
The concealer gives no flashback at all and I simply love that. It looks as natural as possible and would bring a huge difference to your look. It is surely long wearing and stayed on my eyes for about 8-9hrs with minimal fading in a moderate climate. I can also use this concealer for full face too. There are time when I mix it with sunscreen, moisturizer or any BB/CC cream to perfect a perfect natural coverage. The only downside of every MAC product is that they are unapologetically expensive. However, the quality is undeniably good and the product would last a long time.
WHAT I LIKED
1. Hygienic and travel friendly packaging.
2. Perfect shade range.
3. Medium consistency with slight runny texture.
4. Very easy to blend.
5. Medium to full coverage.
6. No flash back in photos.
7. Can be used with tinted moisturizer or any BB/CC cream.
8. Natural matte finish.
9. Water proof and smudge proof.
10. Long wearing.
WHAT I DISLIKED
1. Pump dispenses a lot of product.
2. May be little dry for dry skin.
3. Expensive.
RATING – 4.5/5
OVERALL – The MAC Pro Longwear Concealer is a medium to full coverage concealer with an extensive shade range. It has a liquid based formula, slightly runny and sets in easily to give a natural matte finish. It is easy to work with and if you have been looking for a full coverage liquid-cream concealer, this excels in its wonderful quality. I am really happy with the product.
Editor’s Note: This sounds really good! I wanted to try this, but right now I have the MAC Pro Conceal and Correct Palette and quite happy with it. As you can mix and match with the correctors and create your custom shade
Have you tried MAC Concealers? Which is your favourite?
Top 6 Matte Pink Lipsticks under Rs.500 in India | Swatches | Giveaway
Hi guys,
I love pink lipsticks and I love matte lipsticks, so it was only fair that I do the Top 6. Now I didn’t feature Colourpop and all those brands that are not easily available and not within the budget of Rs.500.
From my favourites, I managed to pick not 5 but 6 beautiful matte pink shades, all under 500. So here goes..
It’s a bright neon candy pink shade, would work for fair to medium skin tones. Keep the rest of the makeup minimal with just a winged liner when you wear such a bright pink shade
PM 11 is one of my favourites, this range has some pretty good shades and very affordable at Rs.295. It’s a neutral pink that will work for all skin tones, especially fair to medium
3. Elle 18 Colour Pop Matte Lipstick Rose Day- Rs.100/- (Buy HERE)
Again a neutral pink that will work for all skin tones, especially fair to medium. Very affordable and 20 shades to choose from, one of my go-to pinks. This has a soft matte finish and stays for a pretty decent time.
4. Miss Claire Soft Matte Lip Cream No. 12- Rs.160 to 180 (Buy HERE)
Comfortable soft matte liquid lipstick, No. 12 is my most favourite shade in the Miss Claire Range. A mid tone pink, not very bright, but easy to pair with everything. This will work on all skin tones.
5. Nykaa So Matte Lipstick 02 Frisky Fuchsia- Rs.399/-
Nykaa has a lot of pinks, I like 2-3 of them but Frisky Fuchsia is my favourite pink out of them. It’s a slightly warm rosy fuchsia pink. Everyday wearable shade and would look good on fair to medium skin tones.
6. Sugar Smudge Me Not Liquid Lipstick 02 Brink of Pink- Rs.499/- (Buy HERE)
This is a recent addition to the list, a deep bright pink. These are very drying but very long lasting. Brink of Pink would work on all skin tones, especially deeper skin tones.
If you want to see all the swatches on me, here is the video..
These are my favourite matte pink lipsticks, I hope you like this list.
I am giving away Maybelline Vivid Matte Lipstick in Vivid 2 to one of you, it’s only for YouTube subscribers, so all you have to do is like the video, subscribe and comment with your favourite shade.
