Maybelline The Jewels Colorsensational Lipstick- Rubylicious Review+Swatches

I was on my lookout for a wearable red lippie when i came across this product. When the SA swatched this shade on my hand i found it to be a rich and strong color which complimented my complexion quite well.

   

The packaging of the lipstick is quite user friendly with its name written at the bottom, which helps in identifying the lipstick. 

price- Rs 350/

The texture of the lipstick is glossy and creamy. It does not contain shimmer and the color can be build up according to one's need. Usually 2 swipes are enough on my lips. It is neither sticky nor drying.Hence i am quite happy with the pigmentation of the product.

The lasting power of Rubylicious is also very good. I dont find it to get patchy after a few hours like other dark lippies. It has to be removed properly with a makeup remover.

The above pictures were taken in diffused sunlight. (Also, this is the first time i am doing lip swatches and i realised it is not an easy task! Hats off to all those beauties who do it so well! I still have a long way to go...). Also although i have not used a lip brush to apply the shade, i would advice you to use a brush. 

Pros-

• budget find
• wearable red color for indian skintone
• awesome pigmentation
• good staying power
• glossy with no shimmer

Cons-

• it has mild fragrance and taste (quickly fades away) which might not be appealing to some.

Last words-

Lovely shade with awesome pigmentation and staying power. Reasonable priced too!
