Lipstick swatch & Review

I grabbed a few lipsticks from my makeup case that I've put into rotation lately. Not all of them but here are a few. I grabbed a few of the ones that are on shelves right now so that if you love it you will spend wisely. If you hate it, you'll save some money.

In order from left to right:

#735 Champagne Shimmer (Maybelline colorsensational).

This swatch is furthest to the left on my hand. You can barely see it because it is so close to my skin tone. Its very faint next to the nude shade to the right of it. This is a very sheer lipstick good for those days when you want you lips to have an understated look. Moist on lips & only minimally tinted.

#G20 from Sephora's Lip attitude Glamour line. Its nude & creamy which is why it is one of my favorites. Goes on smooth and is perfectly pigmented.

#R24 Sephora Rouge. This is a rich plum shade that is bold. This is not a favorite shade on my skin complexion. I think this shade of lipstick will look better on a warmer skin tone.

#Q425 berry bling CoverGirl queen collection

This lipstick is pretty & creamy. I love this happy medium between pink & purple. Keep in mind this is a sort of sheer lipstick, so if you are looking for a bold blunt color it doesn't pop as much as the Sephora rouge lipsticks. This is a sheer fruity looking shade.

#R11 Sephora Rouge Fuchsia

This is one of my favorites that I wear the most. Its a strong pigmented color. As far as moisture it is a medium, not too dry but not moist. This color is the perfect accessory for almost any occasion & its fun.

#S07 Star lip attitude by Sephora

This lipstick is super creamy & moist like a lip gloss. It smells great & has a sweet taste to it. This shade of bubble gum pink is perfect & looks great on anyone. Its not too bold & not too subtle with just enough shine to it.

#Q515 Paint the town Covergirl Queen collection

This is a bold red lipstick with medium moisture. It smells great & goes on smooth.

Maybelline dark red lipstick. Very creamy & moist. This lipstick is very pigmented & thick. It has a shimmer to it with a heaviness that makes it suitable for night wear. The label came off so I can't remember the product number.

#075 Let me pink by Maybelline

This is a rich rosy color, but not my favorite. This color is likely better suited for a fairer skinned woman. This lipstick is also very dry which I do not like.
