I was pretty excited when I got the opportunity to do a lipstick review for Maybelline’s new lipstick line called Color Elixir! It was actually only this past year that I started experimenting with lipsticks and I’ve been especially drawn to bright reds and pinks.

One of the things I am most impressed with is the sheer and smooth application.  I don’t usually go for gloss but the Color Elixir has a unique consistency that isn’t sticky but maintains a wet shine and sheer coverage.

Your lip color says a lot about your mood… sometimes deep red for a mature and sexy look, hot pink for cute and fun or a orange-y color for something unique. There are many different colors to choose from but here’s a look at the three I tried:

RASPBERRY RHAPSODY

FUCHSIA FLOURISH

SIGNATURE SCARLET

Needless to say, I’m super impressed with Maybelline Color Elixir!! Head to the store and give it a try for yourself : )

Thank you to Maybelline and Refinery29 for this great opportunity!
