Holla girls! 
Today I’d like to talk about Maybelline Color Sensational Vivid Matte Liquid Lipstick.

Price: $5-6
Design.
I’m obsessed with the design. The packaging looks neat and stylish. I’m pleased Moreover, you can see how much of the product is left and make sure to choose the right shade if there is no tester available in a drugstore.
The applicator is very convenient and does not take much of the product. The shape is quite extraordinary. It’s somewhat prolonged. However, it ensures a precise application.
Texture:
It has a creamy texture that applies well and goes a really long way. However, it’s a little bit of a hassle to spread out the product…
Thick coat in the sun
I like applying a small amount of the lipstick and distribute it with my fingers, but it feels like I have a real matte lippie on my lips, so I want to moisturize them…
Although it doesn’t feel dry when I apply a thicker coat.
Dabbed with a tissue
Thick coat
A thin layer may emphasize your peeling, so you better have healthy and good-looking lips for this lipstick.
Staying power.
The product cracks on my lips if I apply a thin coat, but it’s a widespread issue with all similar products…
It wears long enough and comes off gradually leaving a slight pigment on my lips.
Thin coat
The lipstick is hardly applied here
Color.
Shade: 05 Nude Flush. The color range is available in an abundance of shades beginning from dark red to gentle nude. The shade I’ve chosen won me over... It is gentle and looks different according to the coverage. I couldn’t show this in a picture.
As I’ve already said, I love applying a thin coat. My lips look delicate and neat then.

Smell.
The smell reminds me of Maybelline Color Elixir, which is bad… The smell is too sweet and lingers long. Plus, the product has a taste. Therefore, I give it less stars. I cannot use the lipstick frequently due to these peculiarities.
Thick coat=no matte finish

*****************************************************************************************************************************
All in all, I love this product mostly due to the color. I’ve been looking for something like this for quite a long time. I won’t recommend it to those who need a truly matte lipstick, as there is no matte finish after layering.
Final verdict: 3 stars because of the smell and lack of actual matte finish.
Thank you for your attention! I hope I was helpful!
