Hi guys!=)
So today is a makeup review on a matte lip product from 'Maybelline'.
I'm unsure if it is supposed to be a liquid lipstick or not since it launched when all the matte liquid lipstick craze starts. So I assumed it works like a liquid lipstick even though it didn't mentioned in any sort of form that it is a liquid lipstick. I'm actually quite confused with this product because if you want to compare it with other liquid lipsticks out there on the market, it is not comparable. It's not even up to the standard to be call a liquid lipstick to be honest because liquid lipstick is supposed to be long wearing. That's the whole point of liquid lipstick, it's to make sure your lip color stays on your lips for the whole day or at least half of the day. You'll find out why I said so below. Anyway, let's see what it claims.
Claims:
Drench your lips in vivid color with a velvety matte finish. Designed with 2X the pigments for intense color.
Ingredients: available on their website which is linked at the very bottom of this post
Rate: 6/10
Claims:

Ingredients: available on their website which is linked at the very bottom of this post
Rate: 6/10
Consistency/texture: velvet cream
Smell/scent: it has a strong scent but I'm bad at describing scent so I'm not gonna try just in case I described it wrongly.
Lasting effect/power: None
Colour transfer: yes and a lot!
Is it drying?: not really as dry as other liquid lipstick because it doesn't really dries matte.
Available colours: 20 colours (the colour I picked is 05 nude flush)
Application/how to use: Apply the liquid lip with the applicator wand in the center of your upper lip and follow along the contours of your mouth. Glide the liquid lip applicator across the entire bottom lip.
Packaging: small, nice and easy to carry around in your bag
Would you recommend to others: no
Personal experience using it: I got this lip product because of the hype on Youtube, let's get real and honest here. Most products I bought and tried are because of Youtube. OMG I just can't seem to stay away from Youtube. Lol. Anyway, back to this. Firstly, I do not like the colour I picked because it was way too pinky for my skin tone. I prefer MLBB lip colours or mauve colours but this is my fault because I didn't swatch it before I buy. The lasting power is the first no no of this so called liquid lipstick product. I am confused that it is actually called a liquid lipstick (according to their website) because it has zero staying power. It transfer a lot! I mean A LOT! The second you drink from a mug or eat, it is GONE! I don't see why people raved about this product. It doesn't do what a liquid lipstick is supposed to do which is to stay on your lips. It doesn't really dries matte and I could feel the dryness of my lips but not as dry as other liquid lipstick if you get what I mean. It's more like a semi-matte and a semi-drying on your lips. I tried it a couple of times to make it work. I even tried putting on and waited for 2 hours before I take a sip from my mug and guess what? Yes, it still transferred after 2 hours! So overall, I would not recommend if you are looking for a drugstore liquid lipstick. The Sleek ones are way way better.
Would you repurchase: no
Product value/price: €9.99
