Maybelline Color Show Lipstick, Fuschia Fantasy
Maybelline has a series of affordable Lipsticks which fall under the Color Show range. It has a wide variety of shade selection with 32 Lip Colours covering from Browns to Reds to Pinks to Mauves.
Fuschia Fantasy is I guess one of the most raved about Lip shade of this range. As the name suggests it is a blue toned dark pink which is insanely pigmented and will give an opaque coverage to even hugely pigmented lips. Though personally I am not a fan of fuschias or blue based pinks still as you might make out i used up this one quite a bit.
You get 3.9 gm of the product which is seriously worth the buy considering how inexpensive these are.
Packaging is normal like that of any other Lipstick with the genre or colour rim in the middle.
For e.g. the fuschia one has a pink rim.
I have travelled with it in hot humid summer with temperature outside almost 42 degrees and the lipstick did not seem to melt at all which I feared so that was a relief.
(WITH FLASH)
(WITHOUT FLASH)
It has thae pop of colour needed to make you look fresh and ready to roll. This can be a great spring time colour with a single layer for people who love fuschias and barbie pinks. You can also layer the product up to an insanely dark plummy winter colour based upon your choice.
The Lip Swatches are :
The lipcolour tends to bleed a bit so I recommend using a lip liner or lip primer and using it a little carefully around the edges of the lips .
In the second picture without flash I layered up the lip colour 2-3 times to bring out the dark plummy effect of the autumns. Though the best way to wear these according to me is dab it matte with a blotting paper and set it with translucent powder and wear it as a light stain.
It is not tranferproof and transfers while eating or drinking but leaves a lovely uniform stain on the lips whivh last for a long 5-6 hours easily.
The stick is very creamy and I recommend that you store it in a cool place (not refridgerator) and not near the kitchen or stove as it can melt.
