Anyway, today I'm reviewing Maybelline's new Colorsensational High Shine Gloss in the shade Glisten Up Pink!
Price:INR 350
Packaging:The lipgloss comes in a typical lip gloss packaging except that instead of it being round, it's square. The transparent tube lets you see what kind of color it is. A weird thing about the packaging though is that it has no name of the brand, color or anything like that on the side of the tube. WHY? I don't know. -__-'
It has a normal doe foot wand.
It has the name of the color on the bottom.
Colour, Texture and Fragrance:
Glisten Up Pink is a baby pink colour, great for those who have fair and cooler skin. It has tiny silver shimmers that give the lips a plump look. They don't feel gritty in anyway and the lipgloss is quite smooth.It has a very faint citrus smell and is completely non-sticky.
Swatches:
On left: Thick swatch On right: Spread out
As you can see, the baby pink color doesn't suit me much at all, and washes me out or rather makes my skin look a bit yellow. It is however a great color to apply over nude lipstick or liner like MAC Spice, paired up with a black smokey eye.One layer: Pigmentation still shows.
Two layers: Pigmentation well covered but still showing
Over nude pink lip liner
Wear:The High Shine gloss doesn't last too long on my lips especially after eating. Because it is non-sticky it doesn't have the wear that another stickier gloss would have. A problem I had with this color was that the silver shimmers would spread a bit around my mouth area. >.<Without eating it lasts for 3-4 hours.Overall:Not being a lip gloss girl, I liked this one just because of the non sticky texture. It doesn't last long because of this though. The shimmers add a 3 dimensional look but move around. So for every pro there seems to be a con. The best pros are that it is cheap and available everywhere!Of course, I would buy this gloss, especially to use on shoots but definitely would prefer a different colour, like Gleaming Grenadine or Captivating Coral just because they would suit me better!
