Kelly Ripa shared a lipstick trick with her Instagram followers weeks ago, showing them how she achieves a full lip look via a mini tutorial video. “No, I didn’t get lip fillers. This is the lip trick, you monsters,” her caption read.
Actress Bernadette Peters attempted to recreate the makeup look using Ripa’s tips but ended up with a comical result. She made sure to narrate her experience on a recent episode of Live With Kelly And Mark, noting that she looked like a clown after her first attempt.

Peters admitted that the hack looked great on Ripa and even tried to double-check the process with Ripa. The 76-year-old said she felt like Marilyn Monroe during the application until she looked in the mirror and felt like a joker.

Ripa then admitted to getting it wrong on some days as she is not perfect at it either. She also credited youngsters on social media for inspiring the idea even though their liner application is too extreme for her.
Fans thoughts on Ripa’s lipstick trick
Like Peters, some of Ripa’s followers deemed the technique impractical. “The way that I just watched this entire thing like I need to do this love a good tutorial even if it’s not applicable,” someone wrote. “This is NOT a ready to wear daily tip or trick…she was merely shutting up the critics that accused her of getting fillers,” another explained.
Other fans were either impressed by Ripa’s beauty or interested in the makeup products she used to achieve the look. She was not spared from criticism either, with a few speculations of cosmetic surgery arising in the comments. Ripa’s daughter, Lola, also joined in to compliment her mom as the world’s most beautiful woman.
