Creamiest Matte Lipsticks!
Maybelline has my favorite lipstick formula from the drugstore! When I heard about the release of this Matte line I was really excited. Matte lips in the fall is a great trend but matte formulas can be tricky to perfect. I wanted to give these a shot and I must report that I really like them! There's 10 shades in the line and I ended up with five. I highly suggest to pick them up at Target or Walmart because they have the best prices, just $5.50 each!
This is the packaging they come in, cute matte purple! They have the same scent as the rest of the Color Sensational line which I don't mind. The shade range in the line covers all the basics from nudes to pinks to corals and berries, I was very impressed by that! The formula is so different from any other matte lipstick; it's irresistibly creamy but that can be a good thing and a bad thing. They glide on so smoothly on the lips but they don't set fully like other matte lipsticks. They are ridiculously comfortable to wear which is my major plus! They don't have any drying factor whatsoever but since they stay so creamy they tend to transfer easily. So make sure the check your teeth throughout the day because chances are lipstick will be there haha. Here are some swatches:
The colors are stunning! They are very flattering and that first one is on trend with that 90's lip that's going around! :-) Here are the lip swatches:
*Touch of Spice- a pink-brown, one of my favorite colors from the bunch! Perfect nude for the fall and very on trend!
*Lust For Blush- a mauve-pink, great everyday color and very wearable.
*Ravishing Rose- a more blue toned pink, it's not super bright which makes it a bit more wearable but not the most flattering on me.
*Mesmerizing Magenta- a creamy magenta- pink, very beautiful! This one has some dimension to it compared to the rest, very unique!
*Divine Wine- a deep burgundy, the ideal fall shade! This one makes your teeth look pearly white, love it!
Bottom line: This matte line is pretty good! I love that they don't dry out your lips at all. The color remains on your lips for a good 2-3 hours but not as intense compared to when you first apply. Maintenance is key to keep the color looking great throughout the day. I don't mind reapplying but if that is tedious for you than you might not like these. They do get the award for being the creamiest matte lipsticks I've tried so far! :-)
