Seriously delayed post alert! Several weeks ago, I finally caved and ended up purchasing two of the Maybelline Color Drama Lip Pencils. I had been toying with the idea for a while, especially since reading the bazillion reviews of them scattered all over the internet. The shades I picked up were, In With Coral (The brighter of the two) and Minimalist which I featured previously in a MAC dupe post. These were pretty much the only shades available at the counter otherwise I would have definitely picked up Nude Perfection, Keep It Classy and Berry Much too.
Minimalist is a dusky pink shade with small, shimmery pieces running through it and In With Coral is a bright, coral pink. Both shades are heavenly. Both shades have a matte finish, and the quality of these lip pencils are enough to have me singing from the rooftops! Fan. Tastic.
In With Coral is perhaps slightly more creamier than Minimalist; however they both refrain from drying out the lips too much, as is often the case with matte products, and actually feel borderline balmy instead. I find that Minimalist needs to be reapplied more often than the coral shade which is probably due to the fact that it is less intense; however that being said, you do get decent wear out of these lipsticks, considering they're less than a fiver each.
Would I repurchase? You betcha. Would I recommend them to a friend? Absolutely. The Color Drama Lip Pencils from Maybelline receive a huge thumbs up from me. Thoughts anyone?
