Makeup Mayfest Day 6

Have I admitted yet that I unhealthy obsession with drugstore lippies.

 

Step 1: Admitting I have a problem.

 

Step 2: Stop buying lip products

 

hmmmm, I will think about it.

 

I picked up these new Maybelline Whispers at Ulta this week and I need to play

with them more, but I've been kind of disappointed with them despite all the hype.

 

Maybelline describes the newly released lip whisper as:

"Sexy, soft see through color with no heavy waxes or oils. Just a kiss of shine."

 

 

 

Top color is Petal Rebel (a blue toned bright baby pink)

Bottom color is Lust for Blush ( a pinkish mauve)

This are definitely what they claim to be... a very sheer wash of color. I chose

to pick up pink shades because I feel that is the color I lack the most of and wanted

something soft and sheer for when I want a dark smoky eye.

 

I have worn these to work and with my current tan less skin I felt

pretty washed out. I like my lipstick and I like my color. I think I will appreciate using

these more at night with heavier bronzer and eye makeup and playing my lips down.

 

They do have a great texture as they are a gel formula. Very lightweight and smooth on the lips.

 

If you are into sheer lippies or glosses I think you will love these. They also

have some brighter colors that will probably have more pigmentation if you are looking

for something that pops a little more.

 

Stay tuned for more drugstore lippie posts.

They seem to be my thang right now.

 

Have you tried Maybelline Whispers?
