Overview | Maybelline Creamy Matte Lipsticks

If you follow me on Instagram, you already know I loooove the Maybelline Color Sensational Creamy Matte Lip Color lipsticks. To this date, Touch of Spice is one of my most reached for lip products. It's just nice with everything. Beyond that, the texture of these lipsticks is like none I've ever tried before. It effortlessly just glides on the lips with even & strong color pay off. It's so smooth and doesn't dry you lips whatsoever which is really nice for a matte lippie. I think the most unique thing about it too is that it's a super thin formula, it feels like you're wearing nothing! The feel/texture is a bit similar to the Rimmel Show Off Matte Lip Velvets but a tad less dry. These really are nice, well, "creamy mattes"! And they stay comfortable on your lips throughout wear. LOVE IT!

As my obsession with the Touch of Spice grew, the logical step was to get all the shades, duh! Have you met me? However I stayed away from the colors on the lighter side of the spectrum (mainly nudes) because I just didn't think they would suit me.

Also note you could build up the color a bit more for the brighter/darker shades, I just used one layer because of personal preference. Divine Wine is a bit harder to apply, as it's very dark and can show uneveness a tad more. It's surprisingly my least favorite shade, but I still have love for it! On the other hand the darker the longer it lasts...But they do overall have good lasting power, but it's not necessarily a long wear lip color per say. Honestly, at this point, my only complaint is that it doesn't come in enough shades. I WANT MORE!! ****Update : They have released 10 NEW shades, check out new swatches here! ****

Have you guys tried them out? What is YOUR favorite shade?

Talk to you soon,
