I’ve never been a huge drugstore makeup user but I have come to accept that I am positively in love with Maybelline lip products. Well lipsticks I guess. As I type this I realize I have never tried any of their glosses or stains. Anyways, back to their lipsticks, the Color Whisper and Color Sensational formulas have become some of my favourites. Who would have thought I could love a drugstore brand as much as high end? I have two new shades I have been testing out and they have only confirmed my adoration.

Maybelline Color Whisper lipstick in Orange Attitude is a sheer tangerine that translates to a gorgeous coral on the lips. It has a good amount of pigment and a subtle shimmer. Although sheer it applies very evenly.

I saw the Maybelline Color Sensational lipstick in Born With It on Lola’s Secret Beauty Blog and knew it had to be mine! It looked like such a gorgeous nude pink with subtle shimmer. Indeed it is!

It has the kind of very refined shimmer you can’t often find in drugstore lip products. Now that being said, it is in there in quite a dense concentration. It takes it a little beyond glow but not all the way into frosty territory.
