kkittylux: ACTS - the creator is holding up a bag with the brand name on it and later uses a lip gloss from the brand. Removing it would change the video because the creator is promoting their own brand.
rhode: APPEARS - mentioned in the caption as "rhode skin". It is not clear if it acts or appears, but it is not the focus of the video. Removing it would not change what happens in the video.

Doing my makeup based on the state I was born in. There's a dinosaur outside of my door right now. Can you leave? Please? I'm not ugly, you're not doing your makeup according to the state you were born in. Well, so I was born in Kansas. I'm fully expecting... So I was born in Kansas. I'm fully expecting... When I search up Kansas, makeup, this is what I got. This is all the makeup I brought with me to Costa Rica, so we're gonna try to do our best. I know I always talk about the negative parts of growing up in the middle of nowhere. But if I'm being honest, it wasn't all that bad. Me and my family did have a handful of races and encounters. But other than that, I guess most of the people were actually pretty nice. If I'm being honest, it wasn't terrible. But now that I live in Maryland, I probably would never, ever go back. Okay, if you look at the inspo pic, it's not really a super bright under eye, so I'm just gonna put a little bit. Now that's done, we're gonna add a little bit more blush to the top. Okay, so the picture looks like a very light contour. I don't know why I always do these makeup challenges. I don't know what I'm doing. I don't want to do this. A lot of people think that some people from Kansas have accents, but like, we don't. So all this just fell on the floor. I'm irritated. I'm going to use this one. Would you hire me as your makeup artist for like your wedding? Yes or no? No. Now we're moving on to the mascara. Where's my mascara? We got to go look for the mascara. Got me out here looking a mess. Oh my god. What a body. Now, it's time for the mascara. Before. After. She has like eyeliner on her waterline. I'm not gonna lie, I'm scared to do that. Okay, looking at the picture again, there's like some brown up here, so let's try to... I'm just gonna take... What happened to this one? It's also on the floor. Okay. I'm just gonna take this and put it on my eye. Okay. Now it's time for the lips. I'm going to be using my own lip gloss because in my opinion, it's just the best. Like, it's not even biased. This soft pink glitter lip that's in my TikTok shop. That color is absolutely gorgeous. I feel like it's a little bit too light, so I'm gonna pair it with another one. Which is our hot pink lip. This stuff is powerful. You only need a little bit. So I'm gonna go put my hair on for the finished look. Here's the look and better lighting and with my hair attached. Glowy. I don't like it. I don't like it. For me, it's definitely giving Kansas. That's probably why I don't like it. I don't think it suits my face. Natural lighting, it looks terrible. To be honest. There's a big eye bird over there. This half of my face looks like meat and I think this was a defeat. So I'm just gonna add some bronzer to kind of fix it up. And a brighter under eye and some freckles because why not? That's more like it. Next time I should try makeup based on the state I currently live in. Anyways, thank you guys so much for watching. I'll see you guys later. Bye.
