Review for Maybelline Watershine
Pure in B24
Hey guys! Okay
so first and foremost, sorry I haven’t uploaded a post in a week, I will try to
update you guys more in this week’s post. My gramps has been really ill lately
and yesterday he was admitted to the hospital but I’m so glad that everything
is alright now.
Today, I’ll
be reviewing a product sent to me as a gift recently from Katina which is the Maybelline
Watershine Pure in B24! Thank you so much for this gift I’m so happy to
receive it! There is also a little note inside which is so thoughtful so thank
you once again. I really enjoyed the product which is a lovely surprise because
I always pass by Maybelline lip products without giving a second thought of
trying them out.
This
particular shade is a warm coral candy pink and as stated in the name, it has
an extremely glossy finish and is very moisturizing.
Swatches!
Pros:
I love the
finish to bits. If you have dry lips, this is going to be the lipstick for you.
It is less streaky than most moisturizing lipsticks I’ve tried before and it
amazingly diminishes all the cracks and dry areas. My pictures did not do this lipstick any justice at all!
The
lipstick is not as sheer as a lip
gloss but not as pigmented as a dry
formula lipstick. I find it quite buildable
and I love that extremely glossy
look it gives when loads are packed on.
I can see
it as a very easy to mix colour, you
can top it off a nude colour and tone down the redness of this lipstick or add
it over a pale pink colour and sort of brighten it up.
The
packaging is very simple and practical.
Not much design going on which can definitely be improved. But overall, I’m
very pleased with the size and durability.
The product
itself although is creamy, it is quite strong
and hard. I don’t think it would melt
or break off during normal conditions unless you place it in a extremely warm
area or press on it harshly. Usually creamy or ‘wet’ lip products such as my
NYX tinted lip spa in Copacabana tend to melt
off the edges but I’m fine with this Maybelline lipstick.
It still dried out my lips a little but compared to other lipsticks that I've tried, the moisturizing factor is pretty amazing. I mean even lip balms dry the crap out of my lips. Just so you guys know. For people without dry lips I'm sure this will be very moisturizing for you.
Cons:
Well, as
all creamy and moisturizing lip products do, they do not stay on the lips for long. Reapplication every once in
awhile is needed and it tends to fall into cracks upon drinking but I just rub my lips together and the streaks go
away.
It comes in
only a limited number of shades and
the most of them are reds so I would love it if Maybelline can produce more
shades in this line in the near future.
Creamy lip
products usually get used up pretty
quickly, that’s nothing new. Within a few reapplications, I can already see a
dent in it. However for the price of SGD13.90, this is a real steal.
Similarly to all coral pinks, it does make the teeth look a little yellow but that can’t really be avoided.
Yadda Yadda:
This was a
gift from Katina, I did not pay it with my money. Will I repurchase? YES! It cost
SGD$13.90 at Guardian Pharmacies and for the price, this lipstick is so worth
it. So go get it immediately!
Packaging: 4/5 (Plain looking but very practical)
Price: 5/5 (extremely affordable)
Long lasting:
3/5 (frequent reapplication)
Overall ratings: 4/5
A/N: I hadn’t had a chance to purchase another
shade yet but if I have I’ll post a picture of it up! Come back tomorrow for my April Fashion Haul!
Love,
