MAYBELLINE LipGradation Red 1 [Review]


RED LIPS, ANYONE? 

They say this is the most indispensable item inside a woman's makeup kit: a red lippie. Oh well, I have a couple of red lipsticks, but I'm much comfortable with my red lip stain from Peripera (a Korean brand) because it's barely there. Two things I hate about lipsticks: they are heavy on the lips and smudge easily. 

Then recently, I was forced to look for a red lippie out of need (long story...but I just badly need it). So I went on and look for one. Most of the famous international makeup brands are on SALE this season! It's kinda hard to choose -_-. After several rounds of scrutinizing and testing, I found a good one. Now here's a review of that product! *ecstatic*

Product Name: 
Maybelline LIPgradation by colorsensational

Product details: 
RED1 (lip crayon + sponge smudger); 1.25 grams 

Description: 

The product is a buttery soft powder stick which comes in beautiful, bright shades exclusively for your lips. Color sensational lip gradation has highly saturated pigments which give you that gorgeous pop of color and inviting flair.


Claims: 
Matte-finish, color stays for hours.

Price: 
SALE: 349.00 php (Original price: 399.00 php)

From: 
Watsons (SM Store) at SM Bacoor


The product comes in a long plastic cylindrical container (5.2 inches long and 1/2 inches wide) with dual ends: the lip crayon and the sponge (cushion) smudger. Both ends has a cap, but the sponge end can be twisted (to glide up/down the lip crayon). The lip crayon, if extended, is 1 1/2 inches long. 



THE LIP CRAYON  (RED1)


GOOD POINTS: The lip crayon is hard enough not to break that easily, but soft enough that it glides on the lips smoothly. I love the color and the clean matte-finish. You can either go FULL or SUBTLE with the help of the sponge smudger for the ombre effect. You don't need to put layers over layers just to achieve the color, because ONE SWIPE is enough to achieve the color that you want :)


NOT-SO-GOOD POINTS: It's a bit pricey (good thing I bought it on a sale). And because of the very thin diameter of the lip crayon, I think it may break easily, especially if it's extended a bit long (so make sure you'll expose just enough). Lastly, it is available in 8 shades only, I think they should include some "more unique" shades. 


OVERALL, I'm very happy with this product. I will recommend this product to every lass out there because it is so handy and functional. You can easily transform your look from DAY to NIGHT just by adjusting the gradient of your lips. Try it now!


My LIPS don't LIE :) Twilly and Lippie matchy!

End of the post again, but I'll definitely see you next time with another great review. If you want me to review certain makeup / skincare products, comment them below! :)
