Maybelline New York Color Sensational Rebel Bloom Lipstick, Lilac Flush, 0.15 Ounce

I've been dying for a lavender lipstick that was affordable (though I'll probably still collect the niche lipsticks because I love lavender lippies) and I was sort of shocked that a "drugstore" brand came through. It's ACTUALLY lavender instead of a mauve that they call lavender. It's a nice creamy formula though it's not transfer-proof so you'd need to reapply if you ate, etc. It feels nicely moisturizing without being sticky. If you prefer matte, it's pretty simple to matte out any lipstick with a bit of cornstarch or translucent powder. Basically, the formula is a nice, standard creme lipstick so I mainly wanted to rave about the color. I think this color would work on any complexion from super pale (me) to very dark (it would be stunning and very vibrant on dark complexions!). If you want something a bit more exciting than your usual colors without being crazy out there, this is the perfect shade.

i order this lipstick and it came before the actual shipping time. I really enjoy wearing Maybelline lipsticks and mascaras. This Orchid Ecstasy is really pretty I was hoping for a deeper fushia color but it's more than fine. The moisture on this lipstick is excellent and very smooth. Only semi-fail is that it doesn't stay on long. I mixed it with a Covergirl lipstick to get the desired color I was looking for. It's very light and sheer not a deep pigmentation but I will not take any stars away for that...just the longevity.

Although the color is a little lighter than I thought it would be, I really love it. It goes on like a dream. Feels like you're wearing nothing, but that your lips are moisturized. I have become used to the color- I love to give things a chance- and it is really a very pretty color. The color is soft, but holds its own- makes its own "statement." Now I try to wear clothes that look good with this pretty color!

The color is very pretty but was not quite what I expected, much pearlier than I normally wear appearing almost silver on the lips. Since it's not a "long lasting" lipstick I found the longevity similar to what you'd expect in a lipstick. It's nice and creamy and goes on smoothly but I found the taste much stronger than lipsticks that I'm used to.

I really like this color. If you apply just one coat it's sheer but still colorful. It's not a lavender, light purple sort of lilac exactly but leans more toward the pinky lilac color family if that makes sense. I got a purple lipstick that I love but it's too dark for me. If I apply this on top, it's perfect! This goes on smooth and feels good on my lips. It didn't bleed at all. It's light and the taste is more neutral than some so I don't mind wearing it. I thought it stayed on fine. After eating or drinking, I did have to reapply but so? You have to do that with most lipsticks that aren't stains so I'm not bothered by it. My only complaint and the reason it gets only 4 stars is I don't like how the cover of the tube goes clear down to the base of the lipstick. You have to clench your fingers around the very bottom of the tube and then tug the top off with your other hand and I find myself fumbling with it. Most lipsticks have a cover that ends halfway down the tube. Those are easier to open in my opinion. This is kind of minor and I wouldn't let it keep me from buying but to some who have arthritis etc, this is harder to open and I noticed that it's very hard to open with only one hand when compared to the tubes that have a shorter cover. I would buy this again and wouldn't mind trying some of the other colors as well.

Second time I have ordered. Beautiful color!

Who would put this on their lips??! The color looks like it belongs in a 60's parody on a "lady" who is trying to keep up with the "times". Threw it away. Oh, and the formula dries out the lips no matter how well you prep them.

This shade of pink/lavender is trendy but difficult to find in stores. Delighted I could order it from Amazon. The product arrived on a timely basis. It is unique and long-lasting, very moist and a beautiful color.

El color no es como el de la foto es más claro pero no me arrepiento por que me gustó mucho es cómo un durazno muy suave.

Beautiful purchase very nice
