Nudey Rudey

I was very lucky to receive this in the September BRBB I received the colour 728 honey beige which is a nude colour on the browner side.

The lid is a sheer nude colour indicating the colour of the lipstick, with a silver tube that is square at the bottom.

Two swipes over the lips leaves good colour and no streaks. The formula of this lipstick is nice, it's very creamy and glides on easily and best of all it feels quite moisturising on the lips. The finish is great it's not too glossy or look like it's going to slide off. It lasts 2-3 hours before I have to reapply, which is pretty average for me I swear I eat it off my lips half the time without even knowing. This has a slight "lipstick" scent.. It's that kind of talcum powder scent.

Overall this is a nice lipstick and I can see myself wearing it quite often.

Gorgeous lipstick

I love this lipstick. LOVE IT! I have it in shade "Pink Peony", and it's utterly delicious. The color is a lovely soft subtle pink with a subtle shimmer. The colour is not special as such, as something similar us not difficult to come by, but what I really love about this lipstick is the texture. It's a really creamy, silky, balmy consistency. There's no oily feel, so stickiness to it, no gritt, it honestly just feels wonderful to apply. I love how it makes me lips feel. it also doesn't have that gross, bitter taste that many lip products seem to have. It's very subtle, and very pleasant. It doesn't feel dry or cake or leave residue. I really like this lipstick. My favourite out of everything I've ever tried, which is saying a lot. I have a few different brands, some cheap, some medium, and some high end. This hits all the expectations, and for me in many ways exceeds that if the far more expensive products. it's even great on my lips when they're feeling dry or flaky. Such a great lip product. I want all the colours!

Super bright

I received the fuchsia shade of this lipstick in the September beauty box which is a super bright and gorgeous colour!

It glides on the lips really easily, feels really smooth and moisturising, and the colour builds really well. It looks fabulous for about 10 minutes but just disappears so quickly after that and ends up looking very messy. Therefore I find that I cannot really use it very easily.

Overall I love the colour and feel of this lipstick but it is just not long lasting enough for me to use it.

Colour Sensation Lipsticks

I have about 5 of these lippies.

I don't think this is a bad product by any means, but I do find that I reach for other lippies over these often.

I am not a huge fan of the smell, I am quite sensitive to scents and so this is a bit off putting for me.

The formula is quite nice, not too dry but not to creamy either so I find these actually stay on my lips for a decent amount of time. They are nicely pigmented too so you get great colour payoff.

I personally find the packaging feels a little cheap and I really dislike when purchasing from places like Farmers that they don't come enclosed in a plastic/cardboard packet - but only have sticky tape keeping them closed. It is hard to remove and I always feel a bit unsure about if the product has been opened.

Not my absolute fav lip product, but definitely worth 4 stars.

Tips: I find some of these can be a little dry so I always apply some lip balm first :)

In Loooove!!

I had never tried any maybelline lipsticks before the latest Farmers promotion where these lipsticks are buy one get one free...where I bought several eeeek. I have to say I am completely hooked!! The packaging is super classy and well put together. They are super pigmented and really really creamy. My favourite ones so far are from the bold matt color sensational collection, very long wearing and not drying at all. They come in a HUGE range of colours which is amazing, ive found loads of drug store brands that any carry a very small range of colours which is frustrating especially when you fall in love with a particular range, so these leave me with plenty of colour choice. I will definitely be adding more of these to my collection!

Tips: Check out the Bold matte collection esp mat#7, perfect one better than your natural lips shade.

Yes they are sensational

I was extremely lucky to get a couple of the bad boys in a lucky dips mystery make up bag! I've been stalking these lipsticks for the longest time but somehow just couldnt convince my bank account to give up $20 a lipstick.

First impression: These lipsticks are housed in a hard plastic shell which I'm not too crazy about because plastic gives makeup the appearance of being cheap according to me :). This lipstick is quite unique for it signature cocoa butter smells that I love. Its just a subtle fragrance so ladies who dont like a scented lipstick should be fine to use this.

Using the lipstick. I always use lipstick straight from the bullet and this consistency is creamy, opaque, silky and just the slightest bit of glossiness to it. I must admit I'm not a fan of matt lipsticks because I find them very drying, so these lipsticks are perfect for my wants. The colours are very pigmented and opaque so one or two swipes should be plenty for full colour and coverage.

The lipsticks are very moisturising and I particularly like them now thats a winter because they are helping to moisturise my very dry lips. The lasting power is about 3-4 hours for me and even when I eat and drink I loose too much of colour. I find myself touching up my lipstick probably once a day after the first application in the morning.

I wear it almost everyday to work ranging from red to cocoa and copper brown so they've become a staple in my daytime make up.

If you love opaque, pigmented, slight glossiness and lots of moisture in a lipstick then I would recommend you try these lipsticks. They really are sensational!

Tips: Use a lip pencil to help with the lasting power of the lipstick.

Champagne Shimmer and Toffee Tango

I love the colour of these lipsticks. They are so creamy and smooth to put on, and the colour result is gorgeous. I purchased the Champagne Shimmer to wear as a very pale nude lipstick for an event I was attending. I found it didn't quite cover my lips as I was hoping, but by putting a thin layer of foundation over my lips before applying the lipstick, I got a lovely nude lip look that really made my eyes stand out. Even without the foundation, I still love the sparkly look that this lipstick gives me. The Toffee Tango I have not yet had chance to wear out but have tried it on at home. It makes my lips look a little darker with a brown tone as opposed to their natural dark pink, and I can't wait for the chance to wear it out. This lipstick does need reapplying after a few hours, but is so easy to use that it is not a difficult task to do. There are so many shades available in this range that anyone should be able to find the colour perfect for them, and if you can pick them up on special, definitely cheap enough to try something different to your norm!

Nudey Nude

Another product I was lucky enough to get in the beauty box (September box). I’m not 100% sure, but I think the colours in the BB were Pink, Orange, Red and Brown and I got a beautiful nude colour in my box which was called Honey Beige. I was so excited because my collection is seriously lacking in nudes.

This lipstick comes in a simple square based 'bullet' with a brown plastic lid. I have to admit, the packaging does nothing for me, but it’s simple and the lid stays on so it does the job well. However, it does not get a proud spot on my makeup vanity.

The formula of this lipstick is really nice in regards to application. It applies smoothly, and has a nice satin finish. It also feels moisturizing which is another bonus. For me, personally, this nude colour washed me out. It was just too light for my NC42 skin which is a real shame. I also find after application this lipstick only lasted 40-ish minutes before needing to be reapplied which is just way too high maintenance for me.

Overall, a nice lipstick if you can find a colour that works for you and if you don't mind reapplying often. For me however, I probably will not be repurchasing.

Maybelline Colour Sensational Lipstick

These lipsticks are fantastic! So pigmented and bright and there's so many shades to choose from. Lately these have been my first to go to when buying a new lippy and have just bought a few more colours because of Farmers sales. They last for hours and hours too, I've noticed if I put it on before I go out even after eating and drinking you barely need to reapply. Goes on so nice and smooth, next time I need a new colour I'll definately be checking out this range first. Nice to find an affordable brand that works so well.
