MAYBELLINE:: Color Sensational Lip Stain (Tender Rose 150)

a few months ago, i remember watching Michelle Phan's "Rock the Red" video
where she used loads of different types of lipsticks for different looks
and for one of them, she used a lipstain! :)
[you can watch the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqG3wbrkREw]

i finally bagged myself a lipstain from Maybelline too
but instead of going for the dark red, i chose the lightest pink which enhances my natural lip colour
(the other colours were slightly bolder and darker )

the Boots i went to only had 4 colours to choose from,
but there are a few more: blushing, wink of pink, 
tender rose (my one!), shy red, in the buff and plum flushed!

the lipstain reminds me of a crayon so i find it quite fun applying it on!
it's like colouring in a picture super carefully so you don't go over the lines! haha :)
this lipstain dries relatively quickly but gives you enough time
to make adjustments so that there's no colour outside of your lip range!

i like to apply some onto the bottom lip and then rubbing my lips together
so that the colour is shared with the upper lip too
as simply colouring in your lips can be a heavier, brighter colour..

although it tastes quite fruity and sweet,
a few licks of the lips can wipe away the product..
and even faster if you have a meal!
but i guess you can always re-apply :)

however, i find that my lips become very dry and start to peel
after wearing this product throughout the day
so you'd need to have some vaseline or lip balm.

positives:
dries quickly
small and light
easy to apply
affordable

negatives:
dries your lips
disappears quickly





thank you for reading :)
