MAYBELLINE NEW YORK COLOR SENSATIONAL LIPCOLOR
TWMichello (160 reviews)

I'm amazed that I'm so late discovering Maybelline's lipsticks. I bought two this weekend - Dusty Rose, from the Color Sensational range, and Pure Plum, from the Moisture Extreme range, and am super-satisfied with both. Great quality, lasts four or five hours at a stretch, does not feather, and fades gracefully. I originally paid a visit to the MAC store and then just got annoyed by their usual pale, western colours that make olive-skinned South Asian women like myself look like we have pneumonia. I've fallen prey to these shades before, and have several very expensive MAC lipsticks lying around that I'm simply unable to use. I moved on to the Maybelline counter and discovered that Maybelline sells its lipsticks at ONE-FIFTH the price of MAC, their range of colours is far more exciting and experimental, and the quality of their stuff is very satisfying. I've also discovered that these lipsticks are truly moisturising and do not dry out your lips at the end of the day, unlike many other brands. Will recommend and repurchase without a doubt. I love this lipstick! it has so many colors to choose from but right now i only have 'make me pink'. the formula is creamy and not too sticky. stays on for quite a while and if you like matte lipstick but not dry, this is for you. it gives a tiny bit of shine without looking too wet. the price is good for the quality of the product and the packaging is cute! the only thing is that the silver part of the tube came out of the bottom but i just screwed it back on. i will definitely buy many more of these! The best shades are Pink Please and Born With It. The other shades don't impress me. I don't get why Pink Please was discontinued because frankly it was the best pink ever. And it sold pretty well. The people at Maybelline are dumb. Born with it is good but the shimmer just annoys me. The other pinks in the Color Sensational line is just bah- too dark. What Maybelline and others need to have is a nice pink nude, no shimmer or anything. Just a nice creamy pink nude or nude brown. Cause this is what customers want. Look at Rimmel's Moisture Renew lipstick in nude delight, its the best selling shade cause its just such a beautiful nude. — 1 month, 2 weeks ago

awesome lipstick
kenya (498 reviews)

i love the shape of this lipstick. its quite easy to apply. also, the variety of shades makes it easy to find the perfect shade. the consistency isn't too thick and it never feels cakey. the lipstick isnt sheer and is very pigmented, which i loved. i highly recommend these cheap, long lasting lipsticks! — 1 year, 5 months ago

Amazing!
TheLacqueredLady (588 reviews)

These are one of my favorite lip colors. They are richly pigmented, last a long time, and are incredibly velvety. They come in an incredible range of colors that are true to color on the lip. I also find that the condition of my lips improves when I use these lipsticks. Plus the packaging is so chic! — 9 months, 1 week ago

Great color selection, great performance, great price
luckybetty (880 reviews)

I am not easily tempted by a magazine advertisement, but when I read their claims and color selection, I could not resist to try this color sensational lipcolor. I could not make up my mind for just one color among so many attractive shades to choose from. Even for just the "nude" base tone, there were at least 10 different colors at a drug store. The color (Warm Me Up) is, yes, warm, natural, mature and sexy. It really fits to my skin tone. It may not have the exact shine power as lip gloss has, unlike sticky lip gloss, this lip stick is creamy and soft, and hydrates my lips. I am a regular buyer of Clinique (especially Long Last Soft Shine Lipstick) , Shiseido, Mac, Shu Uemura lipsticks, but the quality of this lipstick is almost comparable, and the price is hard to beat. I would give the perfect score if it was a long lasting. — 2 years, 5 months ago

Coral Crush
pynkNymphette (189 reviews)

I am a MAKE UP FOR EVER junkie when it comes to lip sticks but I decided to give this a try after all the rave reviews. After about ten minutes of browsing I picked up the color Coral Crush. It is a peachy pink color that looks great & natural. The packaging is very nice and is durable enough for the purse or backpack. The lipstick has a soft, emollient formula which is absolutely fantastic. No weird chemical smells or tastes either! Great pigmentation & lots of color choices from this line. Simply cannot beat the price tag with quality like this. Will definitely be getting more colors! — 1 year, 3 months ago

Did I Buy the Same Stuff?
leo1999 (560 reviews)

I bought this lipcolor, Maybelline Color Sensational, in #435 Plum Perfect, based on the wonderful reviews here on this site. I couldn't be more disappointed. It smelled awful, the color was tacky, and although moisturizing, it felt like I was wearing something from my mother's vanity. There's a reason why it's cheap it price. Let's be honest. If you want a quality product, spend the money because this just is NOT worth it. (I gave it two stars for the creaminess and the price.) — 1 year, 9 months ago

corizotti (540 reviews)

i got a few of these, they feel nice on and wear pretty well. they dont seem like a drug store lipstick, in that they smell good and have nice, contemporary colors and good pigment level. they are also moisturising. — 2 years, 4 months ago

Yummy!
theseattlesound (143 reviews)

I loved the way that these have that sweet, coconutty smell to them. It's not overpowering, but just perfect. -wide variety of colors broken up into categories when you go to the store -neutrals -reds -pinks -browns & plums They add a nice shine, without looking like a gloss. Some have shimmer, and some don't. (most don't) I've purchased almost all of the colors and I like them all, especially the one "pink me up" which I think is a nice color that's very wearable for every skin tone. — 1 year, 3 months ago

very creamy, high pigmentation
MakeupGuru (424 reviews)

This is a great buy for the price, resembling dept store quality. It's very creamy, and payoff is great. They have great color selection, especially for a drugstore brand. The only downside is that, although very faint, the odor is not to my liking. — 2 years, 6 months ago
