When I’m contemplating my makeup and skincare purchases, I look to my friends for their opinions. If there is no one in my life who has used a product that I’m interested in, I resort to reviews. I love reading product testimonials on store pages and watching reviews on Tiktok, YouTube and Instagram. Of course, I appreciate everyone’s opinions and application tips. Plus, I love the visual of seeing what a real person’s product looks like, especially in makeup, when I’m trying to find flattering shades for my skin tone.
Out of curiosity, I downloaded ChatGpt and typed “Share the 10 Best Lipsticks.” In response, the app shared, “The ‘best’ lipstick may be subjective, but here are 10 popular recommended picks without commentary.”
This list included many of the lipsticks I tried and used, along with some of the others that piqued my interest. The pick contains certain shades, the other responses were a bit vague and I couldn’t determine the specific lipstick that the app recommends to me.
My view: This list is an interesting starting point for shopping, but at the end of the day, I always intend to rely on humans for shopping insights. At this point, there’s nothing better than reading testimonials, viewing customer photos and looking at the tutorial.
Thankfully, I’m personally familiar with most of the lipsticks recommended by ChatGpt, so let’s take a look at the list.
