Hey girls!!
I hope you had a great weekend!! I sure did! Saturday I went to a blog conference all day and it was so much fun and I learned SO SO many things, my brain was literally fried that night when I got home. Then last night I went to see FROZEN on Ice…yea you read that right. It was so cute and so fun. If they come to your town I highly suggest going! :)
Anyways on to today’s post. Recently Maybelline launched new MATTE lipsticks and if you’ve read my posts before matte lipsticks are my absolute favorites, so I HAD to pick some of these up! Keep reading to see my thoughts on these babies!

From Top to Bottom: Lust for Blush, Mesmerizing Magenta, and Divine Wine.
Price:
These are $5.49 at Target, which I have heard is the cheapest place, and honestly it’s the only place I could find them, Because they are a new item they are sold out a lot of places besides Target. My favorite matte lipsticks are from MAC which are $16 a pop, so these are super affordable. If you aren’t sure about this whole matte lipstick trend, I would try with these first because they are a great price.
Facts:
There are 10 colors in the collection, ranging from nudes to super dark vampy lips. I love how there is something for everyone in this collection. Whether you are trying to achieve the Kylie Jenner lip or you want a hot pink lippie for a night out, this collection has it all.
These are super creamy and highly pigmented. Although they are matte, they don’t leave your lips looking flat or dead. They also stay on a pretty long while, which is one of my most favorite things about matte lipsticks.
My Thoughts:
I’m OBSESSED with these!!!!! Like I said above, these are super super creamy and very pigmented. If you are familiar with matte lipsticks, most of them tend to be on the drying side where they can be hard to apply because it feels like you are dragging them along your lips, plus they can leave your lips feeling just spent haha, and you are wondering why I love mattes… but these are so different. They are actually moisturizing, and so buttery but still look matte. That’s like the best of both worlds. These are giving MAC lipsticks a run for their money. If I haven’t convinced you enough to try one of these then I have failed, haha. I just really really LOVE these so much I want everyone to try them!! :)
Here I am wearing my favorite shade…Divine Wine!
Do you think you will be picking up one of these?
I’m not a lipstick wearer by any means but these are gorgeous! I love that red you are sporting–so pretty! I’m passing this post along to my sister because she loves lipstick! :)
Aww thank you Sarah!! Definitely pass it along to her because if she loves lipsticks she will appreciate these! :)
I love that shade, but I’m such a chicken when it comes to trying lipsticks. I’m always afraid I’m gonna rub it all over everything. Haha. Ya look fabulous, dahling.
Don’t be chicken, just work your way up! I swear you will love them the more you wear them! Thanks girl!! :)
I love that lipstick on you! Such a beautiful color! I want to try one of the darker nudes but I’m so fair skinned. I’ve heard they’re amazing though!
Thank you so much! Yea it is so beautiful! Yea there are several nude shades, you should definitely pick one up because they are really affordable and just great!! :)
They look gorgeous! I’m definitely going to try them. Divine Wine looks amazing on you Anna!
Thank you so much, that was so sweet Maurissa!! You HAVE to try them! They are just so creamy, it’s great! :)
I think your lipstick posts are my favorite. They always inspire me! I’ve been wearing lipstick a lot more often thanks to you! These colors are gorgeous. I especially like the Divine Wine. You look so pretty in that picture!
Aww I’m so glad I’ve been able to inspire you! That means so much! What lipsticks have you been wearing lately, I definitely want to know! Divine Wine is super pretty! It is the perfect fall dark color! Every girl should own it! Thank you so much for saying that! :)
I have quite a few Clinique lipsticks, so I’ve been wearing those! I definitely need to get some new ones soon, though.
Oh awesome! I’ve never tried Cliniques lipsticks!
I really wish I was braver with my lips. You look fab in that shade! I’ve been wanting to try some new makeup routines, so I’ll be adding this to my list. Dumb question–how long does it last and does it smear on everything? I really don’t want to wash lipstick out of my kids clothes.
I have no idea why but it sent both of your comments to spam…so rude! Luckily I retrieved them! :)
Matte lipsticks don’t budge, they seriously stay in place all day long pretty much. Don’t worry about them smudging all over your face or teeth because they won’t! Try going for a more neutral lighter color first like Lush for Blush first, then work your way up! You’ll soon be loving lipsticks!! :)
