I bought this on sale in hopes that it would be the right shade of nude for my skin tone. I love the selection of colours they have in the nudes. I chose the shade Barely Bronze which is a bronze/gold dusty rose sort of colour. It's exquisite on and gives my lips a pop of nude colour with the bedazzled look. I love it!
The tube it comes in is very telling of what's inside. I can tell no sweat in my big bag of makeup which is the nude with a lid like this. It's easy to hold and apply and glides on smoothly. It leaves my lips nourished and doesn't dry my lips out like some lipsticks. It stays on most of the day unless I eat or drink with it on then it fades but for $8 like I paid I am not fussed on reapplying it again to keep it looking great.
It's so versatile! I can wear it with anything and have any makeup look I desire because it's a nude it suits everything and anything I decide to do. I am now wanting to buy the rest of the shades of nudes because they are just that beautiful. They go on exactly the same as the colour protrays which for $8 doesn't usually happen. It's very pigmented and has a place with my makeup any day.
I received the shade Honey Beige (728) in one of the Beauty Review Beauty Boxes from last year. I was super happy to get a nude lipstick, because at the time I didn't own any nude shades. I loved this one so much that I now own quite a few nude lip products.
I have pale skin but the shade Honey Beige suited me well. There are 6 shades in this Maybelline nude range and this shade is one of the middle ones. It is a warm peachy brown colour that is a couple of shades darker than my skin. That's probably a bit of a weird description, so I would swatch it in store to decide if this shade will suit you. I think this particular colour will suit pale to medium skin tones. This shade is extremely versatile as it can be worn with pretty much any eye makeup. It didn't make me look like I was wearing concealer on my lips, which is what I always worry about with nude lipsticks.
This has such a creamy consistency, and it applied so smoothly to my lips. My lips felt well nourished after wearing it all day, much like if I had just been wearing a lip balm. It is well pigmented and it lasted a long time. I generally only need to touch up my lips once during the day with this lipstick. This product does have a subtle vanilla scent to it, which is nice.
Overall I really love this product and I hope add another shade to my collection in the future.
