Maybelline Color Sensational Matte Lipstick - Pink

Yes, the Maybelline Color Sensational Matte Lipstick delivers a creamy, velvety matte finish. While the product description may refer to the broader 'Colour Sensational' line which includes glossier options, this specific lipstick is designed for a matte look.

No, this lipstick features a rich, creamy formula designed to moisturize your lips and provide a velvety feel, helping to prevent dryness often associated with matte lipsticks.

'Smoky Rose' (shade 987) is a flattering pink shade. It's a versatile color suitable for various occasions and complements a wide range of skin tones.

To extend wear, start by exfoliating and moisturizing your lips. Apply a lip liner that matches your lipstick or natural lip tone. Apply the lipstick, blot gently with a tissue, and then apply a second layer. Avoiding oily foods can also help.

Absolutely! Using a lip liner is highly recommended. It helps define your lip shape, prevents feathering, and can significantly improve the longevity of your lipstick.

The item dimensions are approximately 22 x 22 x 75 mm, making it a standard, portable size for your makeup bag.

Info needed: [Most Maybelline Color Sensational lipsticks have a mild, sweet vanilla-like scent, but specific scent information for this shade is not provided.]

Ensure your lips are smooth and free of dry flakes. Gently exfoliate your lips before application. For very precise application, use a lip brush.

Prep your lips with a lip primer or a thin layer of foundation/concealer. Outline and fill in your entire lip with a matching lip liner. Apply the lipstick, blot with a tissue, and then apply a second layer for extended wear.

While the formula is moisturizing, individual lip dryness can vary. Ensure you are hydrating your lips regularly. Before application, apply a rich lip balm, let it sink in, and then blot off the excess before applying the lipstick. Avoid licking your lips, which can exacerbate dryness.

This can often be prevented by using a lip liner. Choose a liner that matches your lipstick shade or your natural lip color and carefully outline your lips before applying the lipstick. A 'reverse lip liner' (a clear or nude pencil applied just outside the lip line) can also help create a barrier.
