If you know me, you know one of my favorite past times is shopping for new lipsticks. So when my nuggz Brianna texted me swatches she found online of the new Maybelline Color Jolt lip paints, I knew I had to have them. They just came out, so we were skeptical that we’d be able to find them while out shopping. Luckily, CVS came through in the clutch and had a display of them tucked away in a corner, which I promptly shrieked about. I decided to get two colors: 05 – Stripped Down and 35 – Berry Naughty. I chose them because they seemed to be colors that were filling in the gaps of my collection; the nude was different from other nudes I had and my collection was lacking in a deep berry.
I swatched these as soon as I came home, because I was impatient as can be to see what they looked like. I have to say, these smell AMAZING. I wasn’t expecting it, so that was a nice bonus. They glided on really easily, and the applicator was soft and felt amazing on the skin.
I tested out Stripped Down the next day for work. Though it takes a bit of time to dry, once this is on it really doesn’t budge. While I refreshed it after lunchtime, I totally could have let it be and still would have looked great. I loved how it worked for a natural look! It definitely filled the gap that I was looking to fill in my makeup bag.
Final Verdict: Buy. This. Lipstick!
