MAYBELLINE COLOR SENSATIONAL 100TH ANNIVERSARY LIPSTICK IN PURPOSEFUL MAUVE

(RETAIL $7.19)


Hey guys. Hope you are having a wonderful day. Today's review is on the Limited Edition 100th Anniversary Color Sensational Lipstick in Purposeful Mauve. This collection was brought out with some limited edition products as well as some permanent products with limited edition packaging. I have seen a few displays with different things in them, so I'm not entirely sure what is in the full range.

There are 4 lipsticks in this collection ( 800- Strike A Rose, 805- A Purposeful Mauve, 810- Magenta-bulous, 815- Coral Cocktail), all limited edition shades. The color I chose was Purposeful Mauve. I purchased this at Rite Aid for $7.19. I'm sure the price range will differ depending on where you purchase it. I have seen this collection in almost every store where Maybelline products are sold, although the selection of products may differ.

It has the standard Maybelline color sensational packaging with a New York skyline artwork around the whole lid. Very sleek and cute. A "100" is also in one of the buildings to signify their 100 year celebration. The lipstick itself is a pinky nude color with a brown undertone. I would say it is a crème formula with no hints of shimmer or glitter. It glides on with ease. No tugging or pulling to the lips. The color is opaque with just a few swipes but doesn't look or feel heavy on the lips. It has a slight glossy effect when applied that gradually fades over time. I got around 4-5 hours wear time with this lipstick, which is what I normally get with others from this line.

I would say this is a must have in my book, if you can get your hands on it. The Color Sensational line is one of my favorite lipstick lines from the drugstore, and they rarely disappoint.
