And Now For the Swatches, because I know how much you guys love see product swatches :)
And also, Lip swatches! Let me know if you would like to do this more often, or if you would not like to see my lips so close ^_^;;
Here are my bare lips
I'm sorry if any of you are offended, but you don't have read if you don't want to :P
This is Maybeline #850 in Porcelain Pink, it looks like a very creamy bubble gum pink
I think this might be too much of a creamy color for my skin tone, but I will try to pair it with either a darker lip liner underneath or a orange lip gloss on top
And here it is on my lips, it reminds me of Nicki Minaj lips in her Super Bass video, I'm not sure it's a flattering look for me, unless you guys think so, let me know in the comments below :)
Here's Maybeline's # 875 in Elegant Lilac, now it looks innocent in the tube, but man is it pigmented!
It is a deep mauve purple, very creamy opaque color
As you could tell by looking at my lips, I will have to figure out how to pull this off.
Here's Maybeline's #870 in Afternoon Tea and in the tube, it looks very similar to a color I already own.
It's a also a creamy opaque color, it comes across as a nude pink with a hint of mauve.
Here it's on my lips, I really like it, it brings out the best out of my skin tone, I will have to pick up a back up of this
Here's Maybeline's #40 in Fuchsia Fresia, it's a very bright pink.
Not to say that it isn't as opaque as the first few colors, but it seems to a little on the sheer side, not to you couldn't build it up.
As you could tell, it's can be very loud pink, a bit mauve toned also.
Here's Maybeline's #20 in Strike a Posy
When I took the cap off this one, I knew this one would be my favorite, peachy pink color with a hint of shimmer. This color just screams, wear me all summer! :)
What you think guys? I think I should dedicate one week of looks to this lips color? It could be fun!
Here's Maybeline's #30 in Tigerlily Treat
This is a barbie pink, like the two colors before, this is a bit on the sheer side but is buildable
As you can tell, I'm not sure if I could pull this color off, what do you guys think?
Here's Revlon's Lip Butter #20 in Brown Sugar, my 3rd time trying lip butters.
A very nude brown with a hint of pink, I love how these feels on my lips
This is like my natural lip color, but better. Perfect nude color for me :)
And here is my last product to share, Maybeline's ExpertEyes eyeshadow quad #20Q in Cashmere Gray
This will be my first time trying Maybeline's eye shadows, so I will let you know I like them.
They swatch okay, the black shade seems to be the problem child, but we have ways of making it cooperate, don't we, my precious? Okay, I'm sorry, I had to let my nerd hang out for a bit :P
Remember I said I had a color similar to Afternoon Tea?
First swatch left to right, is MAC's Lipstick in Syrup, then Afternoon Tea and lastly Elegant Lilac. So yeah, I will definitely be picking up a few back ups :)
I hope you enjoyed reading and hope this was helpful in some way. Happy shopping, thanks for reading and have a great day!
