Okay, so I'm going to be talking about the Maybelline Color Sensational Lipsticks. Well two of them in particular.
I heard a lot of great things about these on the internet, especially on YouTube. So I went out and bought me two shades. Hooked on Pink and Red Revival. I really love pink-red tones because they go the best with my skin tone.
I was super excited to try them.
When I first swatched them at the store, they weren't extremely pigmented, but they weren't anything to laugh at. Their color range is pretty decent in my opinion.
When I put Hooked on Pink on, I liked it. It was a nice rich color and it complimented my skin tone.
However, it has absolute crap staying power. Within an hour or so, the lipstick would be gone. It also made my lips feel quite dry which I HATE. It seemed quite sticky and balmy too.
I refused to admit to myself that I didn't like them, so I tried Red Revival on.
Now, this shade wasn't as nice as I thought it was going to be. It definitely seemed a lot more cherry red when I swatched it, but when I put it on my lips, it had a white-ish undertone. But that didn't bother me as much.
Although it was the SAME problem. I got dry lips, absolute crap staying power, smears like crazy, color payoff really isn't as great as one would think and it wasn't value for money.
Yes, they're dirty because I buried them at the bottom of my makeup collection. To be honest, the packaging isn't that impressive either. |
The two colours: Red Revival and Hooked on Pink. |
Standard looking lipsticks. Not super impressive. |

Anyway,
That's all for now!
Thanks for reading and I hope you liked it!
