Maybelline Superstay 14hr Infinitely Fuchsia Lipstick

I’ve been hunting for a fun, bold and bright lip-color shade for quite some time now. The issue with rich lipstick colors is that they tend to bleed; you never have any idea when it gets messy! So when Maybelline came up with their Superstay 14hr Lipstick range and that too in matte texture, I had to give it a shot.

I chose the shade ‘Infinitely Fuchsia’, just what I was looking for – perfect for a pop of color. Loved it! But yes, it’s not what I would recommend for daily or office wear.

REVIEW

The Super Stay Long Lasting range, unlike the Color Sensational range, has a matte finish and gives a rich opaque coverage. Though the brand claims ‘No dragging, no drying’, I should caution that the lipstick tends to get dry and flaky overtime. This is perhaps to do with its 14 hour stay formulae. When I first applied, it did give a slightly glossy texture but this wears off soon.

So a moisturizing lip balm underneath is a must. Better still; lightly exfoliate the lips before applying the lip color. Personally, I like to gently exfoliate, apply a hydrating balm and then use the lipstick.

The lipstick gave off a sweet fruity smell and the color was very well pigmented. Just one swipe gave the desired color. Personally, I prefer to apply two coats of color. After the first application, I dab with a tissue and then re-apply.

To wear this fun and bold Maybelline Superstay 14hr Infinitely Fuchsia lipstick, it’s a good idea to tone down the eye make-up so that the lips really stand out!
