I have always loved Maybelline's Color Sensational line of lipsticks, and last year when they came out with the "Vivids" collection, I was so excited! So considering how much I gravitate towards wearing nude lipsticks, do I even need to tell you how this collection makes me feel? By the way, I apologize for the chapped lips in the swatches. It is just that awful time of year when no matter how well I moisturize or exfoliate, I can't seem to keep them soft enough.
I am thrilled to see more and more variations of nude lipsticks at the drugstore. Their is such a spectrum of skin tones that one nude for everyone does not always work. These lipsticks are some of my favorite nudes I have tried from both drugstore and high end because of how comfortable they feel on the lips.

Price: $5.49 - $7.99
Where to Find Them: Ulta, any major drugstore, & online at any of the major stores websites (i.e. Walmart.com, Target.com).
Pros:
- Creamy, smooth application
- Feel hydrating
- Good color payoff
- Great nude color variety for any skin tone
- Affordable
Cons:
- Lighter shades can accentuate fine lines, dryness of lips
- Not super long staying power - about what you would expect for a creamy formula. (Maybelline is not making the claim that they are long wearing).
Final Grade: A+
Love these lipsticks! Definitely worth checking out if you like nude lipsticks!
Great post. I bought the sin-a-mon one. I like how moisturizing it feels! :)
