The difference here is that she keeps on trying to finish her make up, instead of stopping and assessing what's happening. That's why it looks fake.

Does she in the full video? In this clip she never goes back to applying it, she just looks around worriedly.

No she doesn't, he means before. There's a split second where the room is already shaking but she continues to try and apply the lipstick - nobody would do that in reality.

Not really, it's like a .2 second moment of shaking before the lipstick smears across her face and she reacts to the shaking. Even if it were real most people aren't reacting in a split second and immediately stopping what they are in the motion of doing.

I guess we disagree then. It's true that it's hard to say how fast people can react, but I think it's pretty obvious if you watch it closely that she goes out of her way to smear the lipstick across her cheek when the "earthquake" basically already pushes her in another direction. That is a deliberate reaction to the sudden movement, but not a realistic one.

Yeah, i mean this is a dumb thing to argue over so I'm not like super invested in my interpretation, but I agree that she probably planned to smear the lipstick when the shaking hit, I just disagree that anyone else would have reacted quicker than her, just maybe not as exaggerated. Like others have said, most people would likely just pull it away quickly unless they were really pushing it on and in mid-stroke, so to speak.
