Maybelline Fatal Red 530 Lipstick Review and Lotd

Hello friends, I am back after a long long time and I am back with this Maybelline red lipstick called Fatal Red. First things first, I really missed all of you and this beauty world, though I was not completely out of touch, I was some what active on Facebook. I went to visit my parents and took some time off blogging and I came back and realized I had my camera there and then Diwali and then I was not keeping well, am still not in perfect health...anyhoo..I am back now and here is my post on the most beloved budget friendly RED LIPSTICK ever...its the most talked about red lipstick ...Fatal Red.

To begin with its PRICED at INR349. or $7.49 USD . I would say its a good budget lipstick from a drugstore brand and it easily available.

COLOR: Well to me its really very difficult to describe colors in general, and top it off with so many shades in the same color....to the best of my ability MAYBELLINE FATAL RED is a true red color its not blue neither is it orange based, its just red. What I love about this lipstick is that depending on the lip liner I choose underneath it I can manipulate the redness of the lipstick.

TEXTURE AND PIGMENTATION: FATAL RED is a creamy smooth lipstick. It glides on the lips effortlessly. The formula is creamy although not buttery as Revlon Lip butters. The pigmentation on the lipstick is somewhere in between, its decently pigmented, one swipe and you do get the color full on, but I would say one swipe it doesnt make it completely opaque. You do need two swipes to get the full effect, but it also makes it wearable during the day time.

STAYING POWER: Maybelline color sensational range lipsticks are not known for their staying power and same holds true for this lipstick. It barely stays for 3 hours at a maximum and then starts to fade, being a pigmented lipstick it doesnt completely wear off though. FATAL RED stays put a good three hours. 

OVERALL VERDICT: I am in love with lipstick , its a no fuss completely gorgeous red lipstick. And for someone who is venturing into the red lipstick world, its a perfect start. The staying power could have been better, but he Maybelline doesnt claim it to be a long lasting lipstick either. So overall I would give this lipstick a thumps up and go ahead and recommend it to all and sundry!! Here is how it looks on me.
