Lipstick Love : Maybelline The Jewels Berry Brilliant Lipstick Review and Swatches!

Almost the whole of the blogging world is going gaga over the Jewels collection from Maybelline Colorsensational range ! 
I for once had no intentions to get any shade from this range as I feared none of the shades would suit me and rather would luk garish against my skin.So when the SA tried to swatch I was unwilling but she was so sweet seriously!And the moment she swatched Berry Brilliant I fell in love :P It is darker than Fuchsia Crystal.And another shade Rubylicious is a gorgeous pinkish red!

Price : Rs.350/-

•  The packaging is similar to the normal Colorsensational ones but has a baby pink cap with multi dimensional strips on it.The Jewels was printed on the cover and I nearly regretted removing the cover ;) It would have been great if it had been printed on the cap instead :) 

• Berry Brilliant is a pretty berry shade with fuchsia and plum in it :)

• The texture is smooth and creamy but feels very light on the lips.

• The pigmentation is the best part : highly pigmented and u need a single swipe to cover the dark areas of the lips.

• It is very moisturising more like a lip balm and the finish is glossy.After half an hour or so the glossiness vanishes but still lips feel soft!

• The staying power is 3 hrs or so on me and with meal it leaves behind a baby pink tint to be exact.

• It does bleed due to the balmy texture.

• This shade adds such a pop of color that I prefer keeping the rest of the face natural.

• Suits fair and dusky skin tones :) 

• Maybelline has definitely hit the Jackpot with this range.Wish they bring more everyday wear kind of shades under this.

• Perfect for fall and winter :) And U can rock Navratri and Diwali with shades from this range ;)

• I have swatched some other shades which I thot might be similar but Colorbar Velvet Matte Oh My Magenta was the only 1 close.

RATING :

RECO: U ought to own a single shade from the range and this color is a great 1 to own for the coming days ;)
