Maybelline Color Show Lipsticks Review, Swatches, Price & Buy Online India- Violet Fusion, Fuchsia Fantasy & Red Twilight

Hi Girlies,

With back to back Maybelline reviews and swatches on the blog I could very well term it the brand of the week. I have always been a huge fan of Maybelline and I already showed you their latest launch- Maybelline Electrics Eyeliner Swatches here. Today, I shall be reviewing 3 Maybelline Color Show Lipsticks which are 109 Violet Fusion, 112 Fuchsia Fantasy, 208 Ruby Twilight.

Product Description
Maybelline Color Show Lipstick is a fashionable intense lipstick, which comes in chic to vivid shades. Maybelline Color Show Lipstick is highly pigmented giving bold lips.

Price: Rs 299 for 3.9gm
Available online on Nykaa

Packaging
The Maybelline Color Show Lipsticks come in a simple black plastic casing with a color coded band. The shade number and color are indicated at the bottom of the lipstick which will be helpful if you tend to store them upside down. Unlike the Street Wear Lipsticks they shut with a click and the cap wouldn’t come off in your handbag.

Texture
The new Maybelline Color Show Lipsticks have a very creamy and buttery formula. I have heard the texture varies from shade to shade but the 3 lipsticks that I have are very, very hydrating! I have a feeling they might not survive the Indian summers too well and the bullet might just break!

It gives a very glossy shine to lips but due to the creamy texture the lipsticks tends to bleed quite a bit. A lip liner is a must to avoid that or try the blotting method which would also increase the staying power of the lipsticks. The Maybelline Lipsticks do not settle into fine lines or accentuate them.

Pigmentation
I have 3 of the Maybelline Color Show Lipsticks with me- Ruby Twilight, Fuchsia Fantasy & Violet Fusion. All 3 are very well pigmented and I was absolutely bowled over by the color pay off. A single swatch gives an intense color and provides great coverage. Those with pigmented lips are bound to show alot of love to these colors!

Staying Power
Since the lipsticks are very creamy in texture, they tend to get wiped off easily incase you have a meal or a snack. On an average, they stay put for about 3-4 hours if I don’t eat anything. The wear time could’ve been better but most creamy lipsticks do not last long so no complaints on this front. All the 3 shades leave a strong lip stain which makes sure you do not need to rush to the ladies room to touch it up instantly.

Now coming to the shades, Maybelline Color Show Lipstick in Violet Fusion is a browny pink with a plum undertone. It is literally a fusion of those colors and is one of those shades that are meant for medium skintones. Sure it will suit fair and dusky complexion as well but it will flatter wheatish skintone the best and could be a great everyday shade for them.

The Maybelline Color Show Lipstick Fuchsia Fantasy is a deep raspberry pink which is one of my favorite shades. Such shades are not only perfect for the winters but look amazing on our Indian skintone. Its quite bright and would be a favorite amongst the ladies for parties. It instantly perks up my complexion and is well pigmented.

I am sucker for red lipsticks and Maybelline Color Show Lipstick Ruby Twilight is one of my favorites. My mom who rarely wears red lipsticks liked it so much that she has taken this from me! Its a creamy true red and will flatter all complexions. The perfect bold lip color for the upcoming Diwali parties!

I got my Maybelline Color Show Lipsticks from Nykaa which have stocked the full range. I got my order the next day which was pretty fast I must say. The thing that I love the most about Nykaa is how easily accessible they make all the latest beauty launches especially for those living smaller towns and cities where it usually takes months for new products to reach. They aren’t my favorite shopping website for nothing 😀 I’ve always had a great experience with the website and highly recommend them.
