REVIEW: MAYBELLINE COLOR DRAMA LIPSTICK

 MAYBELLINE COLOR DRAMA LIPSTICK IN NUDE PERFECTION - £4.99 - BOOTS 


 So I spotted the lovely Sophia from TATTOOED TEALADY blogged about this Mac Velvet Teddy dupe, I just had to pick it up and try it for myself. Velvet Teddy has to be my favourite lipstick ever. It's the perfect nude, Mac matte lipsticks are amazing, I have a fair few in my collection. My Velvet Teddy is starting to wear down so when Sophia mentioned this dupe for a bargain £4.99 I had to get it. Velvet Teddy is the brown/ nude shade that every blogger seems to be wearing right now. Recently Kylie Jenner shared her secret and let out that to create her iconic lip shes uses Velvet Teddy lipstick by Mac, and also the Mac Soar and Whirl lip liners. 

I popped into boots last week to get some lunch and this fell into my basket. I haven't tried any Maybelline lip products for awhile. I have to say these color drama lipsticks are amazing, They are like a lip pencil and come in a selection of colours. The consistancy of Nude Perfection is so creamy, it glides on really easily and lasts all day. The finish is matte and its just such a lovely creamy finish, not drying at all. The colour is so so close to Velvet Teddy, like Sophia said Velvet Teddy is slightly warmer in shade, ( see swatches below) 

I've been wearing Nude Perfection since I picked it up last week, I just love it and for £10 cheaper I will be picking it up again. I might have to stock up! It's a perfect everyday nude and a great dupe for Velvet Teddy. 


Overall for a bargain price of £4.99 I don't think you can go wrong with Nude Perfection by Maybelline color drama stick. It's a must have product if your after a cheap nude lip product, maybe if your not sure about splurging £15 for Velvet Teddy?  I'd say give this ago first!

GET THAT NUDE LIP AT A BUDGET PRICE!




So everyone seems to be going crazy over the Kylie Jenner Nude Lip, Sales of Mac's Velvet Teddy have gone through the roof! I'm really not a huge fan of matte lips so I went in search of some nude lip products to have a play with. I wanted to find some affordable products so I headed to boots. 

I picked up the Loreal Paris Infaillable Lip Liner in 708 Always Toasted, Loreal Paris 630 Beige A Nu Color Riche lipstick and Rimmel London 077 Asia lipstick. As you can see from my swatched below these are nice nudes shades with a slight pink colour to them. 

The Rimmel London formula is really nice and has a slight matte finish, as I said I don't really like matte formulas because I find them drying on my lips. The rimmel one is really nice your lips feel hydrated and moisturised but the finish isn't glossy, its just got a slight hydrated finish rather than completly matte and dry. The colour is a nude with a slight pink/brown colour to it which is really nice and it works well with the lip liner that I picked up.

The Loreal Paris Color Riche is a really similar shade, it has abit more peach undertone to it. Again it leaves the appearance of a matte lip product but is actually quite moisturising on the lips and isn't drying. It's less matte than the Rimmel forumla but its such a lovely lipstick 

The Loreal Paris lip liner is really easy to use, I think next time i'd rather buy a pencil rather than a twist up mechanical style pencil. I snapped it a couple of times so ended up wasting loads of product and I'd like to be able to sharpen the pencil for a more defined and precise line. It's easy to use and long lasting, the colour is really versatile and you'd be able to use it with loads of lipsticks.
