As is my duty, I wanted to inform you all of a new Maybelline Color Sensational lipstick collection that has recently hit the shelves. I had heard rumors of this collection here and there but kept it to myself until I was able to get my hands on it. After some searching, I was finally able to find this new pastel collection at a local drugstore and wanted to review it for you all since pastels seem to be all the rage this fall/winter! I only picked up one color, mainly because my drugstore only had four of the colors (I know there are more) and I knew that the other three were not going to flatter my skin tone. Enjoy!
The Specs:
The Formula: The formula/texture of this lipstick is the same as the rest of Maybelline's infamous Color Sensational lipsticks (with exception to the new creamy mattes). It has a shiny finish and is not drying on the lips. It lasts for about 2-3 hours, depending on how much you eat or drink. Out of all drugstore lipsticks, the Color Sensational formula is by far my favorite.
The Color: The color I picked up is called "Power Peony (#720)". It is a soft, yet fairly bright blue-toned pink that is very, very similar to my favorite pink lipstick ever (Maybelline Vivids in Pink Pop). I have no idea whether or not this collection is going to be permanent, as I cant find any information of it on blogs or Maybelline's website. So, I would say that if you like this color, definitely pick it up but know that if the line is not permanent, you can get a very similar color with the Pink Pop lipstick. You can see what that color looks like here.
The Price: Around $5-6 at Target, Wal-Mart, or your local drugstore.

Note that the lighting in these pictures is not great since they were taken in the evening so the pink is showing up a little darker than it actually is.
