I have been lucky enough to be contacted by Maybelline’s PR to review their new Color Sensational Moisture Extreme Lip Color. They provided me four of their best selling shades from their 4 different colour groups. I got Pink Bloom from Fresh Pinks, Summer Sunset from Sexy Reds, Papaya Milk from Fun Corals and Buff from Elegant Nudes.
I used to own 1 lipstick from the older formula, it was also know as Moisture Extreme something something, but I can’t remember the exact name or the exact shade of the lipstick already. I didn’t quite like it to be honest. It has this weird smell, and even though it claim to be moist and all, but I felt it was rather drying? >_< Chuck it already.
But… this time Maybelline scored a winner! The reformulated lipstick is really really lovely!
Here goes!
See, it comes with SPF15 too! Not bad eh?
Swatches on my arm…
It’s crazily pigmented. Just one swipe and this is the intensity you get. It’s rather creamy, but it does sink into the fine lines if you don’t use a layer of lipbalm beneath, maybe I have really bad lips? But too much lipbalm before lipstick makes the lippie slides off rather easily, like as though it won’t stay, so you will need the right amount on lipbalm on your lips before applying the lippie.
Excuse the bad lips. By the way, my lips is rather pigmented
So light shade doesn’t show as well as the darker ones.
Pink Bloom hardly show up on me, but it’s one colour that I can use everyday without worrying it being awful or anything on me. It’s like a tinted lipbalm on me.
Papaya Milk is another colour which is quite wearable on me despite it being a little orange. I usually don’t wear corals but I think I can wear this without much effort.
Buff look very dark and very warm in the tube, but on my lips, it became a neutral nude-y colour on me, but with some added warmth. Not my favourite colour and I doubt I’ll wear this often. I still like pink and reds for my lips.
And finally, my favourite colour of the lot, Summer Sunset! I have been wanting to find a beautiful red shade for my lips and I think I found it! A blue based tone red that make me look so much fairer than normal! I love!!!!
Overall staying power is quite decent with me drinking and eating, it lasted about 2 to 3 hours before needing a reapplication for Pink Bloom. The others stayed on longer for about 4 hours? Summer Sunset is the best because it’s like a lip tint and stays on and on for the longest time! Love it!
Here’s me cam-whoring with Summer Sunset! Yesh I know I am biased, but I love this shade!
My face got no makeup on so it’s pretty blah… Just look at those red lips okay! That’s the main focus!!!
Did I just tell you I love Summer Sunset? LOL.
Retailing at all major pharmacies and departmental stores for RM24.90. I believe this goes on sale quite often so maybe you can wait for sales, but RM24.90 isn’t that bad for a nice lippie, yes?











The lipsticks look beautiful on you especially the first and last one!
The red is quite bold but it doesn’t look as intense as unwearable reds :p Definitely a keeper
Glad you had a nice experience w/them! I can’t wait to try the new reformulated formula!
And you have flawless skin!!!
So pretty!

Pink Bloom…here I come! XD
Why is that Western drugstore lippies are so fond of dark nudes? I don’t get it. I can never find a rosy+beige+pink nudes in western drugstore lipsticks.
