Review

Maybelline has come up with some incredible products under its Color Show range. When I came across the vibrant bunch of colors from this line, I was excited to try them out, and I picked up a few from the 12 shades. Here’s my experience with the Maybelline Color Show Matte Lipstick.

  • Texture And Fragrance

This lipstick is easy to apply – it glides smoothly across the lips without pulling or tugging. Its texture is fairly creamy. It’s not a true matte finish, which means it’s not really drying on the lips. However, upon application, it looks quite matte, but at the same time, it does not leave your lips feeling dehydrated and gross.

It has a mildly sweet fragrance that varies depending on the shade.

  • Pigmentation And Performance

When it comes to pigmentation, this formula falls into the moderate to deep category. It’s not extremely pigmented, but multiple swatches will easily help you achieve the desired result.
What I liked most about this lipstick is that its formula never tends to dry out my lips (like most matte lipsticks have done in the past) and the shades are true to their colors. Also, it does not feel sticky or tacky on the lips. Its color does not fade, no matter what the weather is like.

  • Staying Power

With my experience, this lipstick stays on for about four to five hours. It can survive light meals and drinks, but needs a re-touch after a heavy meal. Its formula did not transfer all that much and stayed put through the afternoon.

Shades

The Maybelline Color Show Matte Lipstick range comes in 12 different shades, from reds, pinks and oranges to browns and mauves. Here’s how each shade looks and performs.

  • M 101 Pink Power

How To Use This Product

No matte lipstick will look its best without properly preparing the canvas. Here’s how to apply the Maybelline Color Show Matte Lipstick perfectly:

Step 1: Prep! Use a lip scrub to exfoliate and get rid of any dry skin on your lips.

Step 2: Remove any flakiness using a soft, damp toothbrush.

Step 3: Apply some lip balm for added moisture if you want some extra hydration.

Step 4: Start by applying in the center of your upper lip, and continue to the outer corners of your mouth.
