Lipstick of the moment

Since getting a lot of the Maybelline Colour Sensational l/s from the event, I've decided to do a mini series reviewing them and my other favorite lipsticks. I've seen this on a few other blogs (Lilyloveslola, makeupbycaroline to name a few) and I love it.

Today I present to you Midnight Plum




This is from the Maybelline Colour Sensational range.



How much? £6.92

Where can I get it? Boots, Superdrugs etc

What do they say? Maybelline Colour Sensation Lipstick is a colour sensational. Crisp Colour from our pigment technology. Creamy feel, enriched with honey nectar. Intensify your lip colour with our captivating shades. It's the colour of right now.

What do I say? This is a perfect autumn colour. It's dark enough to make an impact but is really wearable and doesn't look too vampy. The l/s itself is really moisturising. I was quite impressed with the staying power of the l/s, after the initial coat wore off, I was left with a nice stain on my lips. There is a slight shimmer to the colour so you might want to avoid this if you're after a matt l/s but I personally feel this helps make it more wearable.
