Hello everyone! I’ve been MIA for a long time now as I had
so many functions and events at my place. I hope you all are doing well. So if you keep a regular watch on drugstore brands here in India, you must have
observed Maybelline is back to back launching new products in the Indian
market. Maybelline being my favourite drugstore brand out of all, I just cannot stop
myself from trying its products.
The brand has given many hits and misses in
the past few months, but I believe in testing the products myself to give my
honest opinion about it.
Maybelline launched a really cool concept in the lipsticks
with their just bitten line.It is priced at INR 475 for 3.9 grams of product and come in 3 different shades.It is available on www.nykaa.com and major maybelline counters. The lipstick is meant to be giving a beautiful
blended flushed ombre effect to the lips.
I was very intrigued to try it out because
somewhere in the back of my mind the concept of kind of impractical to me. The lipstick
has 3 shades from light to dark. I got it in the shade Raspberry Smoothie,
which has really pretty hues of pink. The
lightest shade is a true nude, middle
one being light pink and the darkest is a true pink red Raspberry shade.
The lipstick comes in a standard Maybelline lipstick packaging. This one has pink ombre effect on the cap and the tube is silver in color. The ingredients list was mentioned on the plastic wrap which needs to be taken off for opening the lipstick.
Coming to the texture, it feels very creamy and hydrating. There is no need for using a lip balm underneath. It applies smoothly on the lips and feels very light and comfortable.
It has a lasting power of 4-5 hours, but sadly the ombre
effect doesn’t stay for long. In the end of the day, it leaves you with soft
tinted pink lips.
The major downfall of it is it has weak pigmentation. You really have to swipe it several times to get the true color. Basically while building it up on the lips, the colors kinda mix and the whole point of ombre is certainly not achieved.
So if you are into testing or experimenting with new
products, you can try it out. Otherwise save your buck and invest it in other
products. Cz the results it gives in the end of the day is equals to what a
tinted lip balm does. It does really moisturize and hydrate the lips all day
long and is suitable for daily wear use.
UNTIL NEXT TIME,
LOVE.
